No, but I wanted Jeff's changes. I have checked that I can apply the "set HEAD" series, then Jeff's changes, then this latest series all to next w/o conflict. I've not tried it w/o Jeff's changes in the middle. > I see you made it cleanly apply on top of 'pu', but frankly, I really hate > to see a series based on 'pu' as a matter of principle and discipline. > > Other topics in 'pu' may not be ready for a long time, and you do not want > this series to be taken hostage to them.
