[GRASS-dev] Fw: [Ubuntu] GeoGit

[Hamish]

Hi,

taking the liberty of fwd'd Tim's email here, as the basic idea
can be quite an important one for maintainers of cadastral data.

Paper-trails of changes and formal metadata hooks (eg for INSPIRE) 
remain major missing features in GRASS.


regards,
Hamish
