cogito port - staging error / malformed command

[apple@…]

I'm having a build error in the "Staging cogito into destroot" stage (aka: the installation stage). Looks like someone forgot a backslash (\) or line continuation somewhere (i.e.: right before cg-object-id) in the actual staging part.

I haven't had a chance to look at this yet.

However, cogito is no longer recommended or maintained upstream, so maintaining the port is kind of pointless.

I recommend "Easy GIT" as a replacement, but it's kind of early for packaging (and requires git v1.5.4) ​http://www.gnome.org/~newren/eg/

Shall we delete the port, especially if they believe it won't work with newer git-core versions?

cogito deleted in r49222.
