But this also means that if I were for example to use git-for-each-ref in gitweb, I couldn't _test_ if it works. Ah, well, if you can live with PATCH/RFC... But I'd rather wait for git-for-each-ref in _released_ version of git. On the other side as you said the true test for new core stuff is to use it.
