do you think it makes sense to create one? It took me some time to figure out that it doesn't even connect to the device (or be able to have posix and usb backend in the same binary). I don't know the story about this utility, but IIRC I downloaded a tarball from openocd?
I think the most current version of the tool (or an equivalent tool) is distributed by Atmel itself, somewhere hidden deep in their download links for the AT91SAM7-EK product. There are even two versions of it, one that uses the raw USB device (via libusb) and one that uses the ttyUSB* device generated by the kernel serial driver for the sam-ba bootloader usb device.
Creating a git repo would probably make sense only if we actually had some changes/patcehs to that utility.
