6 +What's cooking in git.git (Jan 2009, #01; Mon, 05)
7 +--------------------------------------------------
8 +
9 +Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed
10 +with '-' are only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are
11 +in 'next'. The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of the branches,
12 +but I am still holding onto them.
13 +
14 +The topics list the commits in reverse chronological order. The topics
15 +meant to be merged to the maintenance series have "maint-" in their names.
16 +
17 +Sorry to have been lagging a bit. There are a few patches I am interested
18 +in but haven't studied yet nor mentioned here. I've been swamped outside
19 +git lately for the past few days, but hopefully I can get to them shortly.
20 +
21 +----------------------------------------------------------------

63 + + git-cherry: make <upstream> parameter optional
64 +
65 +* rs/maint-shortlog-foldline (Mon Dec 29 23:15:50 2008 +0100) 1 commit
66 + - [Need tidying up the log] pretty: support multiline subjects with
67 + format:
68 +
69 +* tr/rebase-root (Fri Jan 2 23:28:29 2009 +0100) 4 commits
70 + - rebase: update documentation for --root
71 + - rebase -i: learn to rebase root commit
72 + - rebase: learn to rebase root commit
73 + - rebase -i: execute hook only after argument checking
74 +
75 +I should be able to find time to read this over again and merge to

82 + - [WIP] Add a commit.signoff configuration option to always use --
83 + signoff in commit
84 +
85 +----------------------------------------------------------------
86 +[Stalled and may need help and prodding to go forward]
87 +
88 +* wp/add-patch-find (Thu Nov 27 04:08:03 2008 +0000) 3 commits
89 + . In add --patch, Handle K,k,J,j slightly more gracefully.
90 + . Add / command in add --patch
91 + . git-add -i/-p: Change prompt separater from slash to comma
92 +
93 +Will discard and wait for a resubmit.
94 +
95 +* kb/am-directory (Fri Aug 29 15:27:50 2008 -0700) 1 commit
96 + . git-am: Pass the --directory option through to git-apply
97 +
98 +A reroll of this by Simon Schubert triggered a series to fix a parameter
99 +propagation bug, and another reroll to add "git am --directory=path/"
100 +should be much easier now. I am not likely to use the feature myself, so
101 +it is up to intrested volunteers to carry it forward.
102 +
103 +* ds/uintmax-config (Mon Nov 3 09:14:28 2008 -0900) 1 commit
104 + - autoconf: Enable threaded delta search when pthreads are supported
105 +
106 +This automatically enables threaded delta search code when autoconf
107 +detects pthreads are usable. I haven't heard neither positive nor
108 +negative comments from minority platforms that might be harmed, but
109 +this feels like the right thing to do, so perhaps the best course of
110 +action is to merge this down to 'master' and see if anybody screams.
111 +
112 +* jc/blame (Wed Jun 4 22:58:40 2008 -0700) 2 commits
113 + + blame: show "previous" information in --porcelain/--incremental
114 + format
115 + + git-blame: refactor code to emit "porcelain format" output
116 +
117 +This gives Porcelains (like gitweb) the information on the commit _before_
118 +the one that the final blame is laid on, which should save them one
119 +rev-parse to dig further. The line number in the "previous" information
120 +may need refining, and sanity checking code for reference counting may
121 +need to be resurrected before this can move forward.
122 +
123 +----------------------------------------------------------------
124 +[Actively cooking]
125 +
126 +* nd/grep-assume-unchanged (Sat Dec 27 15:21:03 2008 +0700) 2 commits
127 + + grep: grep cache entries if they are "assume unchanged"
128 + + grep: support --no-ext-grep to test builtin grep
129 +
130 +* as/maint-shortlog-cleanup (Tue Dec 30 22:01:44 2008 +0100) 1 commit
131 + + builtin-shortlog.c: use string_list_append(), and don't strdup
132 + unnecessarily
133 +
134 +* jc/maint-ls-tree (Wed Dec 31 19:00:50 2008 +0900) 2 commits

145 + - gitweb: Optional grouping of projects by category
146 + - gitweb: Split git_project_list_body in two functions
147 + - gitweb: Modularized git_get_project_description to be more generic
148 +
149 +* gb/gitweb-patch (Thu Dec 18 08:13:19 2008 +0100) 4 commits
150 + - gitweb: link to patch(es) view in commit(diff) and (short)log view

161 + + Add -y/--no-prompt option to mergetool
162 + + Fix some tab/space inconsistencies in git-mergetool.sh
163 +
164 +----------------------------------------------------------------
165 +[Will merge to "master" soon]

167 +* mh/maint-sendmail-cc-doc (Mon Dec 29 00:37:25 2008 +0100) 1 commit

169 +

224 + - update-index: refactor mark_valid() in preparation for new options
225 + - ls-files: add options to support sparse checkout
226 + - Introduce CE_NO_CHECKOUT bit
227 +
228 +Will drop shortly, but there may be some other fixes to CE_VALID, like
229 +nd/grep-assume-unchanged topic above, that we may want to resurrect.
230 +
231 +* jc/clone-symref-2 (Sat Nov 29 23:38:21 2008 -0800) 7 commits

240 +
241 +An attempt to extend the fetch protocol to make the logic to detect where
242 +HEAD on the origin site points to more robust. Will drop shortly as the
243 +protocol extension was not very popular.
244 +
245 +* cc/bisect-replace (Mon Nov 24 22:20:30 2008 +0100) 9 commits
246 + - bisect: add "--no-replace" option to bisect without using replace

262 + - "git push": tellme-more protocol extension
263 +
264 +This seems to have a deadlock during communication between the peers.
265 +Will drop shortly.
266 +
267 +* jk/renamelimit (Sat May 3 13:58:42 2008 -0700) 1 commit
268 + - diff: enable "too large a rename" warning when -M/-C is explicitly
269 + asked for
270 +
271 +This would be the right thing to do for command line use,
272 +but gitk will be hit due to tcl/tk's limitation, so I am holding
273 +this back for now.
