i'm definitely with you on that. i personally would even suggest to not even write one single bit of code that handles git. palm it off to Linus' excellent implementation and then see what it misses. i always envisioned that nostr was just negotiation rendezvous easy inbound connection. i've already tried to work with an attempt to clone the core features of git, in pure Go, and it was endlessly problematic with even minimal lag between their work and what the git project has already progressed to. git is just a unix shell protocol, based on stdio and unix filesystem. don't over think it. the protocol only needs to provide the correct references and paths.

It turns out that the http wrapper (CGI scripts) is not that complicated. There are nearly 3 grasp implementations that do this bit internally. This enables shipping a single binary and handling the authorisation *before* the data is sent.
