ugit: git, PowerShell, and the object pipeline
summary
ugit wraps git so commands emit real PowerShell objects not text, using command interception, parsing git output with regex to produce PSCustomObjects, and adding script methods and formatting via easy out and types/format.ps1xml. The module exposes three commands, gained dynamic parameters in 0.38, and 0.39 briefly breaks piping directories; git clone now forces --progress and yields percent progress objects. A companion service getlogger ingests repos ($1/repo/mo) and reports metrics like attach rate (about 12% rising to ~60% in tests).
