Linus Torvalds - he tends to flip people off and call them nasty names and such - and now Evil Inc. is taking his baby and putting it into one of their big, nasty producst? Uh oh! :)

That sounds like a popcorn-worthy event. :)

I was glad to see there is something like libgit2 that can be used for stuff like this, because quite frankly the half-baked msys smells-like-posix-spirit on top of Windows bash scripts all over the place official git is an abomination on Windows.

Yeah, nice to see that indeed!
It's IMHO insane to start a project like Git, pretty much knowing what scope you want, and then do it as a mess of C and shell scripts. I could almost understand it if this had been 10+ years ago, written by somebody with no prior DVCS experience (and not much experience in general)... but Linus? Ugh. If you start a project like that, you build it as a proper library + commandline client (client of the library!) from day 1.
