you mean, the retard and the jedi saying that, of course. yeah, don't reinvent the wheel if you don't have to. servers that translate between protocol and git is quite trivial to implement. this is not realtime, low latency requirements here. even as much as 5 seconds to lay down a commit and propagate it is fine. never prematurely optimize, and don't roll your own if you can just assemble someone else's stuff into a shape that meshes with your actual part of it.
