Hi,

I can't speak for the project, but I have had similar experiences with  
more complex project setups. Since at the time nobody seemed to be  
working on it I modified the git part of Project Plus severely, which  
should help in most cases. If there is interest and I can find some  
time, I'll update my version to the latest PP (mine is one version  
back) and see if I can figure out how to bundle up a patch or worst  
case the entire project.
