Well I've split the new patches into its own topic to queue on the am/pathspec-f-f-checkout branch, that builds directly on top of the am/pathspec-from-file branch, for now. I suspect that they may want to be two topics (i.e. for "add" and for "checkout/restore"), but I'd like to keep them out of 'next' either way for a while until the base topic proves to be solid enough. > Please give me an advice: when the time comes, shall I prepare even > more patches and submit a massive branch, or shall I submit today's > remaining patches, then wait again? I imagine that massive branches > are scary and will deter reviewers? Scary will probably not be an issue for the follow-up topics around the pathspec-from-file theme, but a huge topic tends to wear out the author and the reviewers, inviting trivial bugs that would otherwise be found easily go unnoticed. Thanks.
