Better Git support (Feature #392)
Description
As GitHub or Gitorious are handling Git forks, pulling requests and many other things that make Git so popular nowadays, wouldn't it be great to have the same kind of functionalities in ChiliProject? You could manage your repo from CP, with all the advantages one can see (automatic links with issues, for example). That way, it would be possible to use Git internally, without having to rely on (and pay for) GitHub or another hosting service (GitHub does not provide free private repos, I could not find anything about Gitorious).

Can we split this feature into smaller issues? "Better" to me is pretty vague and I'm afraid it's too large for anyone to really work on.

This is what I tried to do: #395 and #396, smaller but dependant parts (#395 has to be done before #396). Then, I really do not know if I can split in smaller chunks (and I could not work intensively on it, I don't speak Ruby and I don't have enough time to learn it and to write so much code; moreover, I'm not a Git fan, just an admin hearing that kind of complaints about Git support).

Check out this Redmine plugin. You may be somehow able to take code from it, or merge it somehow (you'd need to talk to the plugin developer). It's really nice. It has some nice features such as being able to use the git daemon, smart http support, even ssh compatibility (with public keys!).
