Well, two years ago Fabio and I agreed to call the thing Git Browser
because Git is something the students recognize, while Squot is not.
Moreover, the action labels in the Git browser use Git vocabulary, while
the Squot protocols use one that is more like ENVY's and Monticello's (e.
g., checkout vs. load, commit vs. save, commits vs. versions). The Squit
package is the glue between Squot and FileSystem-Git, and the browser is in
the Squit package at this time. That's why the class is called
SquitBrowser, even though its label says something different.

So I think it is better to stick with the name Git Browser. Since there is
no other such tool in Squeak at this time, it is not ambiguous.
