:Abstract: git-remote-couch
is a git-remote-helper <http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-remote-helpers.html>
that allows you to push source code into a CouchDB <http://couchdb.apache.org/>
_ (you can then fetch a clone from it, of course).
.. warning::
This software is very slow and a three headed monkey will eat your data! It should not be used to save valuable production source code! ALWAYS keep at least a second copy using other backup mechanisms.
.. note::
This is a fun project for me to learn some git and CouchDB internals. Also, I
want to write CouchApps <http://github.com/couchapp/couchapp>
_ that handle
source code. Patches welcome.
