Mark and I got a response from Paul; unfortunately he is too
busy right now, immediately after post 2.6.20 merge window has
opened.  I've parked Mark's patches and another one suggested by
Linus in response to Johannes Sixt's MinGW work in 'next' for
now.  Depending on Paul's availablity, I might end up applying
them in my tree first.

These four are in ("git clone" rewrite is not).

I've done this which was not too painful -- a patch in a
separate message to follow.

I also applied a handful patches from early this year that was
left unapplied.  After reviewing the message I am responding to,
and an earlier "a few remaining issues..." ($gmane/35993), I
think I am pretty much done with 1.5.0 preparation.

After pulling gfi from Shawn and applying the outstanding gitk
patches (either via Paul or myself), I'll tag -rc4 and give it a
week or so before the final.

I should remember to remove git-merge-recur before -rc4 ;-).
