I know of one more "ouch" moment where my latest iterations did not get
picked up: my latest version of the "Avoid a segmentation fault with
renaming merges" patch did not output an error message in case of !nce
because the code flow will result in more appropriate error messages later
anyway. I did not provide a follow-up patch for that because the current
version in `maint` is not wrong per se.

Personally, I would have merged 'nd/config-misc-fixes' into `maint`, I
guess, and 'jc/abbrev-autoscale-config', and probably also 'jc/latin-1'.
The 'rj/git-version-gen-do-not-force-abbrev' topic would be another
candidate for inclusion. The 'ah/grammos' strikes me as obvious `maint`
material, as well as 'ew/svn-fixes'. I have no opinion on the p4 topics
(five, by my counting), as I have no experience with (or for that matter,
need for) Perforce, but Lars might have a strong opinion on those.

Having said that, these are the topics that *I* would merge into `maint`
if I maintained Git. I don't, so this is just my opinion, man [*1*].

Ciao,
Johannes

used milk instead of cream (for the White Russian, that is, not for my
left hand).
