Have no fear ... you just rsync the quilt to a directory (~/pata_quilt
or something) on any server (use rsync so you only pick up the diffs
next time around) and then do

git quiltimport --patches ~/pata_quilt

and voila: a git tree ... of course it's a new one, and it's much harder
to handle incremental quilts (quilts that just have an extra few patches
added) since git rebuilds the entire tree with a different commitid for
each patch every time.
