Oh yes, I played around with that idea (in my head, of course, not in
code ...) -- called it "checkpoints" instead of offline commits, but
it's the same thing. It becomes really hairy when two people try to do
that at the same time. :) But it's such a useful change that it'd be a
shame not to try to do it.
Wait ... wait ... my prescient powers have detected the inevitable
sequence: offline commits -> local branches -> distributed thingie ...
so whilst we may flee in horror from the very idea (git ye away from me,
etc.), it's also a great opportunity for sneaking in the interesting
infrastructure and model changes.
