How about a simpleton who has never pushed, pulled, or committed at all?
IIRC there was some discussion about this originally, and someone suggested that maintainers might even decide to stop maintaining.
The suggestion was made that perhaps a tarball upload could be added which would create automatic commits to the git repository. Hopefully, something like that could be added, it would allow people who don't want to deal with the added complexity to continue on as though nothing had ever happened.
IMO this would be a good idea.
FWIW, +1 here as well. I love git so I'm excited about all the new possibilites and feel like it's a very good improvement - but I can see how this makes it harder for people who'd prefer not getting into git just to contribute to the AUR.
