[Haskell-cafe] Problem using external package from git with stack

I can. It's easy to detect permutations of words (levenshtein distance) and
let the user know. Permutations of words should also be fairly easy to
detect, there aren't that many packages in the stackage snapshot. See git
for example:

$ git comit -m ...
git: 'comit' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean this?
