Yesterday I successfully cloned phpMyAdmin repository with
TortoiseGit, but by using msysgit commandline. Unlike GUI tools it
shows me some progress and I know whether it works at all, with 180 MB
repository it is good to know whether the task progresses at all. The
only problem I have is that some TortoiseGit service crashes about one
time per two hours (at least on my Windows 7 x64). I intend to try out
GitExtensions - http://code.google.com/p/gitextensions/w/list , maybe
it will work better.

I have tried git extensions today. It is just a simple GUI which connects msysgit, putty and kdiff3.
And I have to say it is really a slow GUI. So I am going back to using plain msysgit which works well.
Going back to chart and graph related issues. I guess graphing query results could be implemented as yet another table dump format. Also bookmarking queries which provide interesting results to be put into charts and graphing their results from time to time would prove really useful.
I am not able to figure out how to use bookmarks feature in PMA. I have noticed a table in phpmyadmin DB for that. So I looked all over the place of SQL query results, but could not find bookmark button.
Another reporting feature, which could be improved is PDF reports. I would imagine that adding just a simple font size input box would render this feature far more usable.
P.S. Just noticed that the PMA translation of my mother tongue, Lithuanian, has not had any input for some time now. Another project to commit for translation.
