Debugging

If something goes wrong, file an issue. If the issue has to do with command-line option parsing, file it here, but it it's an issue with actual features (like a failed clone), file it against the main js-git repo.

Please include what version of node you're using, what OS, and debug trace output by using the TRACE=1 prefix.
