Sorry that I cannot show you the source code, but you may interested to
know that libgit2 powers:

Yes, I'm well aware of these: libgit2 is LGPL, because of which these
three proprietary applications have been made possible.  Isn't it
completely orthogonal to the discussion about how best to lib'ify
git.git though?  From what I understand, fc is not interested in
building another application leveraging libgit.a or libgit2; he's
interested in improving libgit.a and getting more users.

Perhaps I misunderstood the discussion, but it looked to me that there
was an assertion that libgit2 was not ready for useful work. I do not
think that is true, and I tried to counter it with facts.

That was not the point. Take 'contrib/related/git-related', or any
useful script, and make it so it uses libgit2 instead of forking 'git
foo' commands.

It's not going to happen.
