 This software is useful in many cases:
 
   - GitHub suddenly explodes.
-
   - GitHub goes out of business.
-
   - Your corporation's backup policies are more stringent than GitHub's.
-
   - You have spotty/no internet access - perhaps you'd like to have all of your repositories available to code on while you ride the train?
