For making a new plugin, e.g a GIT plugin, there is no need to create a 
branch. Plugins can be coded separate from eric4. See the CVS plugin as an 
example. The plugins included in eric4 are so called core-plugins. Once a GIT 
plugin is available (maybe done by you) I am more than happy to include it in 
the plugin repository.

Once there are enough people who want to contribute core code, I might open my 
Subversion repository to individual people.
