  I find it maddening that git hasn't added a standard mechanism for metadata. Commit comments are metadata. Tags are metadata. Why isn't there a general-purpose metadata plumbing so we can attach issues, merge and commit discussions, and wikis, in a portable way? No, being able to export from one centralized repository and import into another isn't good enough.
