129 - + sequencer: fix edit handling for cherry-pick and revert messages
214 + Waiting for reviews.
215
131 - "git cherry-pick/revert" with or without "--[no-]edit" did not spawn

153 - embargoed releases has been spelled out.
229 + "git p4" in Python-2 days used to accept a lot more kinds of data
230 + from Perforce server as uninterrupted byte sequence, but after

257 +
258 + When "git pack-objects" makes a literal copy of a part of existing
259 + packfile using the reachability bitmaps, its update to the progress
260 + meter was broken.
261 +
262 + Will merge to 'next'.
263
176 - "git daemon" has been tightened against systems that take backslash
177 - as directory separator.

210 - with the interpret-trailers command, this will make it easier to
211 - support custom trailers.
278 + Replace GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM mechanism to decline from reading the
279 + system-wide configuration file with GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM that lets
280 + users specify from which file to read the system-wide configuration
281 + (setting it to an empty file would essentially be the same as
282 + setting NOSYSTEM), and introduce GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL to override the
