By the way, Debian folks are very aware of the issue and already has a backported material to cut a 1.4.4.5, but I do not know what the release schedule for their update is.

Everybody using git for anything serious should be using 1.5.3 or newer these days. -- 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
