For what it's worth, I personally don't even think allowing git pushes
over gemini is a good reason for modifying the protocol.  Git has it's
own application-level protocol that works perfectly for this kind of
thing.  Gemini is very close to _perfect_ for it's intended use: serving
up primarily textual content to humans in a relatively secure but
pleasantly simple way.  I really think it'd be tragic to compromise on
this for reasons that are tangential to the original goal.

Just my 2c,
