Hi, Daniel

I am happy to hear this, since I am primaly tracking libvirt via git.

>From seeing http://libvirt.org/git/,
only 4 packages are controlled under git.
(libvirt, libvirt-glib, libvirt-perl, libvirt-tck)
Will other libvirt related tools goes to the directory in future?

Thanks
Atsushi SAKAI
