The feature release after 1.5.0 will be 1.5.1; hopefully we can stick to 6-8 weeks schedule between feature releases, which makes it due sometime in April, assuming that 1.5.0 will be done in a week or so. In 1.5.0, you will still see git-resolve and git-diff-stages, but they will be removed by 1.5.1. We will keep the following for now, but not encourage use of them to new users. There isn't any definite removal schedule right now and we may not even need one. whatchanged (use "log --full-history --raw -r" instead) applymbox (use "am" instead) init-db (use "init") fsck-objects (use "fsck") repo-config (use "config") When we created the contrib/ area, I said that anything there is subject to periodical review for removal if kept unused and unmaintained. But anything that satisfies the requirements of its small userbase will have happy users without exposing its shortcomings, so I suspect removal from contrib/ by periodic review would never happen in practice. I've already removed contrib/colordiff and git-merge-recur. Among the ones I mentioned in my initial message, the ones that are not mentioned in this message will stay as before. - 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
