So, something that's not immediatelly apparent upon reading this. How do I use it? Do I init it in an existing GIT repository and will the added bugs be synced along with my other changes? That would be awesome to replace my current method of light-weight bug tracking: a todo.txt in the git repo.

When you init it, it creates a .later directory to store the issues. You could revision this along with code, so yes it seems like a nice replacement to the todo.txt.
Playing a bit more, what would be really nice would be to be able to do later -r list to recurse through subdirectories listing issues in those too. At present it only looks upwards.
Interesting idea. One could do that in ~/dev and see all issues of all projects inside...
I just committed a plugin, which implements this: http://github.com/beza1e1/later/commit/4d4660124e00859061836...
