[[design/git-remote-daemon]] is tied into the assistant, and working!
Since it's not really ready yet, this is in the `remotecontrol` branch.

My test case for this is two client repositories, both running
the assistant. Both have a bare git repository, accessed over ssh,
set up as their only remote, and no other way to keep in touch with
one-another. When I change a file in one repository,
the other one instantly notices the change and syncs.

This is gonna be *awesome*. Much less need for XMPP. Windows will be fully
usable even without XMPP. Also, most of the work I did today will be fully
reused when the telehash backend gets built. The telehash-c developer is
making noises about it being almost ready for use, too!

Today's work was sponsored by Frédéric Schütz.
