Very cool, Craig!

From browsing the repository a little, I can see that you have these
binaries:

- gfcat
- gfcli
- gfcp
- gfls
- gfmkdir
- gfput
- gfrm
- gfstat
- gftail

I would love to see this packaged into Fedora properly, and some changes
would be needed for that. When I have a little time, I'll check what
needs to be done on the building/dependency part and send you some pull
requests. Once everything is clean enough for Fedora, someone can submit
a package-review which should get approved easily.

There are some things that stand out immediately to me, and should be
fixed, added as TODO, or reported as an issue in GitHub:

- unbundling of gnulib: use the version of gnulib that is in the distro
- all source files should have a licence boilerplate

Thanks,
Niels
