Hi everyone,

Baring in mind that exist packages for Gitg 0.2.7 and it doesn't have a 
general interest for desktop users, I'm sending this email to ask 
packagers to take a look if Gitg 0.3~ after UG 14.04 release will be 
launched.

Gitg 0.2~ is having its age and with some of my repositories it crashes. 
The new release has a new interface that matches the GNOME 3 UI and it 
is based on libgit2 that it is said to get huge performance improvements.

You can get more information about how to build it from the next link:
https://wiki.gnome.org/action/show/Apps/Gitg?action=show&redirect=Gitg

Can you take a look if it can be packaged? I have tried to do it but I 
don't have a lot of experience packaging 'cmake'-based apps.

Thanks in advance!

Regards.
