If you are talking about my mmap window code merge in Nico's work first. Nico posted before me and did so with a working implementation that looks good (at first glance anyway, I didn't study it in detail). I have yet to finish merging my mmap code onto your verify delta before reuse (106d710b) commits. I've just been too busy with classes and research work to get around to it. However I have looked at the merge and I more or less need to rewrite a good chunk of it just to get it onto 106d7; rewriting it onto Nico's work here is probably going to be about the same amount of effort. I'd prefer to rewrite it only once, given how limited my time has suddenly become. -- Shawn. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
