293 + the caller

294 + + Use strbuf for struct xdiff_emit_state's remainder

295 + + Make xdi_diff_outf interface for running xdiff_outf diffs

296 +

297 +Gives measurable performance improvement to textual diff generation. For

298 +improving "blame" performance, it might be more effective to hook directly

299 +to lower level of xdiff machinery so that we do not even have to generate

300 +patch only to discard after reading "@@ -l,k +m,n @@" lines, but that

301 +would be a separate topic.

303 +* dp/hash-literally (Sun Aug 3 18:36:22 2008 +0400) 6 commits

304 + + add --no-filters option to git hash-object

305 + + add --path option to git hash-object

306 + + use parse_options() in git hash-object

307 + + correct usage help string for git-hash-object

308 + + correct argument checking test for git hash-object

309 + + teach index_fd to work with pipes

310 +

311 +Gives a bit more flexibility to hash-objects by allowing us to lie about

312 +the path the contents comes from.

314 +* rs/imap (Wed Jul 9 22:29:02 2008 +0100) 5 commits

315 + + Documentation: Improve documentation for git-imap-send(1)

316 + + imap-send.c: more style fixes

317 + + imap-send.c: style fixes

318 + + git-imap-send: Support SSL

319 + + git-imap-send: Allow the program to be run from subdirectories of

320 + a git tree

321 +

322 +Some people seem to prefer having this feature available also with gnutls.

323 +Such an enhancement can be done in-tree on top of this series if they are

324 +so inclined.

325 +

326 +* jk/pager-swap (Tue Jul 22 03:14:12 2008 -0400) 2 commits

327 + + spawn pager via run_command interface

328 + + run-command: add pre-exec callback

329 +

330 +This changes the parent-child relationship between the pager and the git

331 +process. We used to make pager the parent which meant that the exit

332 +status from git is lost from the caller.

333 +

334 +* ph/enable-threaded (Mon Jul 21 11:23:43 2008 +0200) 1 commit

335 + + Enable threaded delta search on *BSD and Linux.
