Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed
with '-' are only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are
in 'next'.
The topics list the commits in reverse chronological order. The topics
meant to be merged to the maintenance series have "maint-" in their names.
As we have already passed -rc1, things queued in 'next' let alone 'pu' are
unlikely to be merged to 'master' by the end of year unless otherwise
noted.

[New Topics]
* gb/gitweb-patch (Sat Nov 29 14:41:11 2008 +0100) 2 commits
- [DONTMERGE: wait for signoff] gitweb: links to patch action in
commitdiff and shortlog view
- gitweb: add patch view
* lt/reset-merge (Mon Dec 1 09:30:31 2008 -0800) 1 commit
+ Add 'merge' mode to 'git reset'
Unfortunately, I cannot write down a good use case in what circumstances
this is needed, even though I do recall that I occasionally (perhaps once
every two months) needed to do "read-tree -m -u" myself in the past, and
this patch brings that feature close to Porcelain. On the other hand, the
existing "reset --mixed" is very easily explained ("after starting to add
changes to the staging area, you realized that you screwed up, and you
want to redo it from scratch"). Therefore, I cannot justify what the log
message of this change claims myself.
* jc/rm-i-t-a (Fri Nov 28 19:56:34 2008 -0800) 5 commits
+ git add --intent-to-add: do not let an empty blob be committed by
accident
+ git add --intent-to-add: fix removal of cached emptiness
+ builtin-rm.c: explain and clarify the "local change" logic
+ Merge branch 'nd/narrow' (early part) into jc/add-i-t-a
+ Extend index to save more flags
As intent-to-add index entry is a new feature for 1.6.1, it probably is a
good idea to merge this to 'master'. Nitpicks and bugfixes are very much
appreciated.
* wp/add-patch-find (Thu Nov 27 04:08:03 2008 +0000) 3 commits
- In add --patch, Handle K,k,J,j slightly more gracefully.
- Add / command in add --patch
- git-add -i/-p: Change prompt separater from slash to comma
There are some other useful bits and pieces around this area exchanged on
the list with the author of these patches. I think it would become a
useful series after reassembling their pieces. Waiting for v2.
* jn/gitweb-utf8 (Mon Dec 1 19:01:42 2008 +0100) 1 commit
- gitweb: Fix handling of non-ASCII characters in inserted HTML
files.
Possibly a bugfix worthy to have in 1.6.1.
* jc/clone-symref-2 (Sat Nov 29 23:38:21 2008 -0800) 7 commits
- clone: test the new HEAD detection logic
- Merge commit 'HEAD@{2}' into HEAD
- upload-pack: send the HEAD information
- clone: find the current branch more explicitly
- connect.c::read_extra_info(): find where HEAD points at
- connect.c::read_extra_info(): prepare to receive more than server
capabilities
- get_remote_heads(): refactor code to read "server capabilities"
This is no way meant for 1.6.1, let alone next, yet.

After merging these to 'master' I found a breakage which I hopefully
fixed.

[Will merge to "master" soon]
What are you looking for? We are in -rc ;-)

[On Hold]
* cb/mergetool (Thu Nov 13 12:41:15 2008 +0000) 3 commits
- [DONTMERGE] Add -k/--keep-going option to mergetool
- Add -y/--no-prompt option to mergetool
- Fix some tab/space inconsistencies in git-mergetool.sh
Jeff had good comments on the last one; the discussion needs concluded,
and also waiting for comments from the original author (Ted).
* jc/blame (Wed Jun 4 22:58:40 2008 -0700) 2 commits
+ blame: show "previous" information in --porcelain/--incremental
format
+ git-blame: refactor code to emit "porcelain format" output
* ds/uintmax-config (Mon Nov 3 09:14:28 2008 -0900) 1 commit
- autoconf: Enable threaded delta search when pthreads are supported
Rebased to 'master', that introduced NO_PTHREADS.
* cc/bisect-replace (Mon Nov 24 22:20:30 2008 +0100) 9 commits
- bisect: add "--no-replace" option to bisect without using replace
refs
- rev-list: make it possible to disable replacing using "--no-
bisect-replace"
- bisect: use "--bisect-replace" options when checking merge bases
- merge-base: add "--bisect-replace" option to use fixed up revs
- commit: add "bisect_replace_all" prototype to "commit.h"
- rev-list: add "--bisect-replace" to list revisions with fixed up
history
- Documentation: add "git bisect replace" documentation
- bisect: add test cases for "git bisect replace"
- bisect: add "git bisect replace" subcommand
I really hate the idea of introducing a potentially much more useful
replacement of the existing graft mechanism and tie it very tightly to
bisect, making it unusable from outside.
(1) I do not think "bisect replace" workflow is a practical and usable
one;
(2) The underlying mechanism to express "this object replaces that other
object" is much easier to work with than what the graft does which is
"the parents of this commit are these", and idea to use the normal
ref to point at them means this can potentially be used for
transferring the graft information across repositories, which the
current graft mechanism cannot do.
(3) Because I like the aspect (2) of this series so much, it deeply
disappoints and troubles me that this is implemented minimally near
the surface, and that it is controlled by the "bisect" Porcelain
alone, by explicitly passing command line arguments.
I think a mechanism like this should be added to replace grafts, but it
should always be enabled for normal revision traversal operation, while
always disabled for object enumeration and transfer operation (iow, fsck,
fetch and push should use the real ancestry information recorded in the
underlying objects, while rev-list, log, etc. should always use the
replaced objects). I have a suspicion that even cat-file could honor it.

Kicked back to 'on hold' until 1.6.1 final by popular(?) demand.
* jc/send-pack-tell-me-more (Thu Mar 20 00:44:11 2008 -0700) 1 commit
- "git push": tellme-more protocol extension
This seems to have a deadlock during communication between the peers.
Someone needs to pick up this topic and resolve the deadlock before it can
continue.
* jk/renamelimit (Sat May 3 13:58:42 2008 -0700) 1 commit
- diff: enable "too large a rename" warning when -M/-C is explicitly
asked for
This would be the right thing to do for command line use,
but gitk will be hit due to tcl/tk's limitation, so I am holding
this back for now.
* jc/stripspace (Sun Mar 9 00:30:35 2008 -0800) 6 commits
- git-am --forge: add Signed-off-by: line for the author
