Arrgh.  The url is http://git.or.cz/gitwiki

By the way, I see on that wiki that somebody attempted to have a
list of Wishlist (http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/Wishlist).  I think
many of them are now irrelevant, or stale, or have been
rejected.  It even includes tongue-in-cheek suggestions made as
counterarguments as if they are serious proposals.  I just have
done a minimum clean-up but many of them that I did not touch
are not necessarily there because I agree they are good
suggestions, but because I did not understand what they are
talking about.

As with any "tracking" list, wanting to have one and starting is
the easy part.  Unless kept up to date, such a list becomes
quickly useless, or even worse than not having one, leading to
wasted wild goose chase if people look at it without knowing how
stale it is.

And keeping any such list up-to-date takes a lot of effort.
Anybody who attempts it needs to have a lot of time and enough
knowledge to sift through both the list traffic to note not just
the initial issue-raising, but how the issues have been resolved
(or unresolved).  I sometimes do that and send out "Unresolved
issues" message to the list myself every once in a while, but as
the maintainer my attention tends to be more on the big-picture
issues and not minor details, and I do not think there are any
unresolved issue at the big-picture level that I haven't talked
about in recent "What's in / What's cooking" messages.
