Hi Arne,

I am not sure who designed the original Trac theme.  The text color is a
bit too grey for my taste, but you are right, the overall theme looks
awesome.  Dimitris Glezos (added to the Cc: list) might know a bit more
about the style, i.e. who wrote it, how re-usable it is, and so on.

Done.  Now that Stefano has fixed the rebase issue of --git style
patches, it should be easy to collect a few comments from people using
the workflow :)

Mostly lack of experience with pbranch on my part.  I have used rebase
quite extensively for my personal work since it became part of the
'crew' branch, but haven't had the time to experiment with pbranch a
lot.
