+What's cooking in git.git (May 2009, #01; Sat, 09)
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are
+only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'. The ones
+marked with '.' do not appear in any of the branches, but I am still
+holding onto them.
+
+The topics list the commits in reverse chronological order. The topics
+meant to be merged to the maintenance series have "maint-" in their names.

+[Stalled and may need help and prodding to go forward]
+
+* ps/blame (Thu Mar 12 21:30:03 2009 +1100) 1 commit
+ - blame.c: start libifying the blame infrastructure
+
+A few minor point remains in this initial one. I hate to do these minor
+fix-ups myself, but I may end up doing so...
+
+* jc/log-tz (Tue Mar 3 00:45:37 2009 -0800) 1 commit
+ - Allow --date=local --date=other-format to work as expected
+
+The one I posted had a few corner-case bugs that was caught with the test
+suite; this one has them fixed. People did not like the UI so it is kept
+out of 'next'
+
+* jc/merge-convert (Mon Jan 26 16:45:01 2009 -0800) 1 commit
+ - git-merge-file: allow converting the results for the work tree
+
+This is a feature waiting for a user.
+
+We did not give scripted Porcelains a way to say "this temporary file I am
+using for merging is for this path, so use the core.autocrlf and attributes
+rules for that final path". Instead, merge-file simply wrote out the
+data in the canonical repository representation.
+
+rerere has the same issue, but it is a lot worse. It reads the three
+files (preimage, postimage and thisimage) from the work tree in the work
+tree representation, merges them without converting them to the canonical
+representation first but inserts the conflict markers with the canonical
+representation and writes the resulting mess out. It needs to be fixed to
+read with convert_to_git(), merge them while they are still in the
+canonical representation and possibly add conflict markers, and then write
+the results out after convert_to_working_tree(). It also needs to write
+in binary mode as well.
+
+* db/foreign-scm (Tue Mar 24 23:04:12 2009 -0400) 3 commits
+ - Add option for using a foreign VCS
+ - Document details of transport function APIs
+ - Allow late reporting of fetched hashes
+
+* js/notes (Tue Apr 14 00:03:36 2009 +0200) 15 commits

+ - Introduce an unlink(2) wrapper which gives warning if unlink
+ failed
+
+* ph/submodule-rebase (Fri Apr 24 09:06:38 2009 +1000) 1 commit
+ - git-submodule: add support for --rebase.
+
+* mw/send-email (Mon Apr 13 13:23:52 2009 -0500) 6 commits

+
+I suspect an attempt to replace an object that is directly listed on the
+command line would not work very well with this series.
