---------------------------------------------------
-[New Topics]
+I said 'We might want to teach "-m trumps implicit --cc" to "git show"',
+and that is what I did near the tip. Comments?
-* jl/submodule-diff-dirtiness (2010-03-05) 2 commits
- - git status: Show detailed dirty status of submodules in long format
+* jl/submodule-diff-dirtiness (2010-03-08) 2 commits

+ + git status: Show detailed dirty status of submodules in long format
(merged to 'next' on 2010-03-04 at 58b2645)
+ git diff --submodule: Show detailed dirty status of submodules
-The tip one may want to use flag bits from places different from "format",

-* js/async-thread (2010-03-06) 6 commits
+* js/async-thread (2010-03-09) 7 commits
+ - Enable threaded async procedures whenever pthreads is available
- Dying in an async procedure should only exit the thread, not the process.
- Reimplement async procedures using pthreads
- Windows: more pthreads functions
- Make report() from usage.c public as vreportf() and use it.
- Modernize t5530-upload-pack-error.
-Perhaps later we would want to enable async-by-thread on all threading
-capable platforms, if only to make sure we use the same code on major
-platforms to reduce chances of platform specific bugs.
+The last one is probably unsafe for 'next' until somebody goes and vets
+the callees that are invoked via this interface (any possible breakages
+are already inflicted on Windows people, though).
-* nd/setup (2010-03-07) 18 commits
+* nd/setup (2010-03-08) 21 commits
+ - index-pack: use RUN_SETUP_GENTLY
+ - index-pack: trust the prefix returned by setup_git_directory_gently()

- merge-file: use RUN_SETUP_GENTLY
- var: use RUN_SETUP_GENTLY

-* sd/log-decorate (2010-02-17) 3 commits
- - log.decorate: usability fixes
- - Add `log.decorate' configuration variable.
- - git_config_maybe_bool()
-
-Probably ready for 'next', except that people need to be warned about
-having to update their scripts to explicitly pass --no-decorate to keep
-them working. A good idea to disable this when --pretty was given, just
-like notes are disabled by default, was floated.
-
-* pb/log-first-parent-p-m (2010-02-10) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2010-02-17 at 2f8e5ae)
- + git log -p -m: document -m and honor --first-parent
-
-Needs tests but otherwise looked fine. We might want to teach "-m trumps
-implicit --cc" to "git show", but that is a totally separate topic.
-
-I actually care about this "log -p --first-parent" very much, but if Pasky
-is counting on that and procrastinating until I write the tests myself, he
-is in for a disappointment. I don't have that much free time these days.
-Help is appreciated.
-
-* js/rebase-origin-x (2010-02-05) 1 commit
- - [RFC w/o test and incomplete] rebase: add -x option to record original commit name

-moving forward.

(merged to 'next' on 2010-03-07 at ef7a18d)
+ Add 'git format-patch --to=' option and 'format.to' configuration variable.
-Squashed tests by Stephen in; it seems we will have updates to add --no-{cc,to,...}
-to both format-patch and send-email but that is more or less independent clean-up.
+Squashed tests by Stephen in.
+I think this is ready for 'master'. Comments?
