Among the topics marked for possible later merging to 'maint' in the draft release notes to 2.6, candidates for future maintenance snapshots are: * mh/get-remote-group-fix # 4 (2 weeks ago) * cb/open-noatime-clear-errno # 1 (9 days ago) * jk/long-error-messages # 2 (9 days ago) * jh/strbuf-read-use-read-in-full # 1 (9 days ago) * ps/t1509-chroot-test-fixup # 2 (2 weeks ago) * sg/help-group # 1 (8 days ago) * nd/dwim-wildcards-as-pathspecs # 1 (9 days ago) * jk/fix-alias-pager-config-key-warnings # 1 (3 days ago) * jk/rev-list-has-no-notes # 1 (3 days ago) * nd/fixup-linked-gitdir # 1 (2 days ago) * as/docfix-reflog-expire-unreachable # 1 (8 days ago) * sg/t3020-typofix # 1 (8 days ago) * po/po-readme # 1 (8 days ago) * sg/wt-status-header-inclusion # 1 (8 days ago) * ss/fix-config-fd-leak # 1 (8 days ago) * jc/calloc-pathspec # 1 (8 days ago) * rs/archive-zip-many # 3 (2 days ago) * dt/commit-preserve-base-index-upon-opportunistic-cache-tree-update # 1 (2 days ago) * cc/trailers-corner-case-fix # 3 (22 hours ago) * jk/log-missing-default-HEAD # 1 (22 hours ago) * ee/clean-test-fixes # 1 (22 hours ago) These I deem are safe (not just the changes themselves are trivially correct but it is unlikely to make things gravely worse if it turns out there were ramifications no reviewers thought about with them) and can go in 2.5.2. As to other topics that are in 'master' but not in the above list, I do not have doubt about their value (otherwise they would not be in 'master' in the first place), but either they are still too young in 'master' or are with sufficiently big impact on the callchain that it is not entirely implausible that they have risks of unforeseen ramifications and fallouts. Let's aim to tag 2.5.2 soonish, before mid next-week at the latest. -- 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
