Hello,

I am pleased to announce another NbGit release. It fixes the problem
of reloading exclude files (.gitignore and .git/info/exclude) if they
are modified, thanks to the patch posted by Imran M Yousuf. A lot of
people reported problems related to the use of submodules. This has
been addressed by patches I have contributed upstream in JGit, which
makes JGit handle submodules entries more gracefully. Real submodule
support still remains, however.

Alex also started implementing support for cloning. For now, file://
and git:// works to some degree. I hope this can be followed up with
missing protocols so nbgit will be able to work with github and we can
finally have push/pull support. Lastly, this release provides a first
shot at integrating JGit's graph visualization. It is currently very
limited in terms of features, but provides a basic gitk-like
interface. I am interested in getting feedback regarding, how it can
be improved, so check out the "Browser" menu item and the screenshot.
