Actually I found PU of some use:

	git branch -f pu next
	git checkout pu
	./Meta/PU --continue

its a little sluggish to list, but made it pretty easy to pick
topics for merging into pu.  git-rerere really makes it easy to
recover conflicts in pu during future rebuilds of pu.

The other tidbits I managed to learn by trial and error here was
to make sure I did the following:

	- make sure master is fully merged into next
	- make sure next is fully merged into pu
	- Run "Meta/git-topic.perl --base=master | less"

It wasn't uncommon for me to merge master->next, next->pu, run
git-topic, then reset both next and pu *back* to what I had last
published (remote tracking branches updated during push make this
easy) before moving on with my next and pu updating activities.

Of course take my notes above with a grain of salt; I only worked
this way for a week and it took me a couple of days to come up with
the above.  Junio may very well have it streamlined even more.
