test on Windows, make sure Composr serves propfind etc on root if needed too and advertises single dir which is Commandr dir
A cool feature would be if you could drag files from your desktop onto icons in the CMS/Admin-Zone, and that would tie into the appropriate Commandr-fs handler (same as WebDav uses) to 'copy' them. E.g. drag a load of word documents onto the News icon, to add them as news. E.g. drag a load of jpegs onto the IOTDs icon to add them as IOTDs.

It would be really really cool if git could be run on top of webdav. So this needs to allow a ".git" symlink to exist in any webdav directory (presumably by mapping to a corresponding symlink stored on the real filesystem).

I say symlink because if you were running git over webdav you'd want the git files locally. So it is a symlink to your local .git control directory.

You'd effectively have two git checkouts locally. A test one (staging site) and a webdav one. You'd pull on the webdav one after pushing from the test one.
I also love the idea of a site being a directory on a computer, clean from all the social 'noise' (from a CMS p.o.v.) that is on the live site. You could use diff tools to compare a staging site to a live one, seeing what files are different. Could be really handy.
I really like this idea
Would be cool to be able to sync any set of Commandr-fs directories with git paths. You could therefore set it all to be under one subpath of a git repository, or have different repositories for different kinds of content (e.g. one for just wiki+).

Recreating this in a new issue.
