A good starting point may be: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/67089/ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/44360/focus=44508 It is frustrating that I cannot seem to find a way to tell gmane to "jump to approximately this timeperiod", but right now, the thread appears at around 635th page from the tip.
