I released today git-bug, a distributed bug tracker that embeds in
git. It use git's internal storage to store bugs information in a way
that can be merged without conflict. You can push/pull to the normal
git remote you are already using to interact with other people. Normal
code and bugs are completely separated and no files are added in the
regular branches.

This reminds me of a demo Scott Chacon showed us ages ago, the name
of which escapes me.  I guess great minds think alike, or something?

I believe you're thinking of TicGit[1].

Some other related work is listed at [2].  Most of these projects have
gone quiet:

- ditz[3]
- git-issues[4]
- cil[5]
- Bugs Everywhere[6]
- milli by Steve Kemp, which I haven't found a copy of
- simple defects[7]
- kipling[8]

http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/blog/posts/git-issue-trackers/ gives a
nice overview, though it's rather old.

This area seems to have gone mostly quiet since 2014, so it's nice to
see new work.

Thanks,
Jonathan
