Design Goals

The goal of this tool is to keep things light - a base interface, with all of the commands needed to make it work. However, just keeping things light would be boring! Thus, I'm designing the tool to be as extendable as possible, so new features can be added. I plan on creating several plugins myself, such as a meta file manager (hiding away those pesky meta files, an resolving conflicts related to them) - of course, these plugins will be kept separate from the main repo

Since this project just started, I haven't written any docs yet. When the api starts to find solid ground, I'll be sure to do that - documentation is very important ^_^
