+What's cooking in git.git (Sep 2008, #04; Mon, 22)
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+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.
+
+I'll be on vacation til Oct 08; proposal/review/discussion/improvement
+cycle based on e-mails and the distributed nature of git mean that it
+shouldn't keep the participants from further improving the system. I've
+asked Shawn to look after in-flight patches during the time, so hopefully
+when I come back I'll see a much better git ;-).
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[New Topics]
+
+* nd/narrow (Sun Sep 14 20:07:59 2008 +0700) 9 commits
+ - grep: skip files that have not been checked out
+ - checkout_entry(): CE_NO_CHECKOUT on checked out entries.
+ - Prevent diff machinery from examining worktree outside narrow
+ checkout
+ - Add tests for updating no-checkout entries in index
+ - ls-files: add --narrow-checkout option to "will checkout" entries
+ - update-index: add --checkout/--no-checkout to update
+ CE_NO_CHECKOUT bit
+ - update-index: refactor mark_valid() in preparation for new options
+ - Introduce CE_NO_CHECKOUT bit
+ - Extend index to save more flags
+
+This is an early half of the earlier series (I haven't had chance to look
+at the updated series yet), and should be replaced with the updated one
+posted recently.
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[Stalled -- Needs Action to Proceed (or to be dropped)]
+
+* pb/submodule (Fri Sep 12 23:09:19 2008 +0200) 1 commit
+ - t7400: Add short "git submodule add" testsuite
+
+Waiting for a reroll.
+
+* bd/blame (Thu Aug 21 18:22:01 2008 -0500) 5 commits
+ - Use xdiff caching to improve git blame performance
+ - Allow xdiff machinery to cache hash results for a file
+ - Always initialize xpparam_t to 0
+ - Bypass textual patch generation and parsing in git blame
+ - Allow alternate "low-level" emit function from xdl_diff
+
+Réne had good comments on how the callback should be structured.
+
+* kb/am-directory (Fri Aug 29 15:27:50 2008 -0700) 1 commit
+ - git-am: Pass the --directory option through to git-apply
+
+I think this is still buggy and drops the option when am stops with
+conflicts.
+

+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[Actively Cooking]
+
+* tr/workflow-doc (Sat Sep 13 18:11:01 2008 +0200) 2 commits
+ + Documentation: Refer to git-rebase(1) to warn against rewriting
+ + Documentation: new upstream rebase recovery section in git-rebase
+
+My impression from the last round of discusson on the third patch in this
+series (not queued here) was that as long as we do not present it as "One
+True Workflow", the description was a good starting point, possibly others
+to add other recommended flows later.
+
+* pb/commit-where (Mon Sep 8 01:05:41 2008 +0200) 1 commit
+ + builtin-commit.c: show on which branch a commit was added
+
+Tentatively kicked back to "still cooking" status after Jeff voiced his
+annoyance. I personally do not like making this multi-line as Jeff
+suggested as an alternative (the message already is too verbose to my
+taste).
+
+* lt/time-reject-fractional-seconds (Sat Aug 16 21:25:40 2008 -0700) 1 commit
+ + date/time: do not get confused by fractional seconds
+
+* jc/add-ita (Thu Aug 21 01:44:53 2008 -0700) 1 commit
+ + git-add --intent-to-add (-N)
+
+Teaches "git add" to record only the intent to add a path later.
+I rerolled this without the fake empty blob object.
+
+* jc/post-simplify (Fri Aug 15 01:34:51 2008 -0700) 2 commits
+ - revision --simplify-merges: incremental simplification
+ - revision --simplify-merges: prepare for incremental simplification
+
+I started making this incremental but the progress is not so great.
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[On Hold]
+
+* jc/stripspace (Sun Mar 9 00:30:35 2008 -0800) 6 commits
+ - git-am --forge: add Signed-off-by: line for the author
+ - git-am: clean-up Signed-off-by: lines
+ - stripspace: add --log-clean option to clean up signed-off-by:
+ lines
+ - stripspace: use parse_options()
+ - Add "git am -s" test
+ - git-am: refactor code to add signed-off-by line for the committer
+
+The one at second from the tip needs reworking.
+
+* jc/send-pack-tell-me-more (Thu Mar 20 00:44:11 2008 -0700) 1 commit
+ - "git push": tellme-more protocol extension
+
+* jc/merge-whitespace (Sun Feb 24 23:29:36 2008 -0800) 1 commit
+ - WIP: start teaching the --whitespace=fix to merge machinery
+
+* 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
+
+* sg/merge-options (Sun Apr 6 03:23:47 2008 +0200) 1 commit
+ + merge: remove deprecated summary and diffstat options and config
+ variables
+
+This was previously in "will be in master soon" category, but it turns out
+that the synonyms to the ones this one deletes are fairly new invention
+that happend in 1.5.6 timeframe, and we cannot do this just yet. Perhaps
+in 1.7.0, but with the loud whining about moving git-foo out of $PATH we
+have been hearing, it might not be a bad idea to drop this.
+
+* 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.
