mmap and mono support

That psuedo code should be enough to get you started ;) This is pretty standard stuff for cross platform development. If you have many different places you call platform specific code, just create an IPlatform interface which exposes all the different platform specific calls. Then create a version of this interface for each platform you want to support and instantiate the correct one at runtime.

    Good idea, it would be nice to have the P/Invoke code directly inside the dotGit codebase. This would enable us to make one build for all platforms instead of referencing Mono libs for mono versions.

    I don't have a Unix testing machine yet. I think I'll just create a VM and test it there as soon as I find the time to look in to this issue.
