Wanted: maintainer for git's emacs support

[Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>]

Hi,

None of the current Debian git maintainers seem to use emacs.  This
means git's emacs support[1] does not get as much care as it deserves:
see for example bugs #611936, #611931, #611932, #611933, #611934,
#577834, and #611935.

The upstream maintainer is very friendly and responsive though he
doesn't seem to have much time for it these days.  Users are friendly
and responsive, too.  So I wonder:

 - would anyone be interested in adopting this code in Debian?
 - if not, should we be shipping it?

Thoughts welcome.  (Actions even more so. :))
Jonathan
