+What's cooking in git.git (Dec 2009, #06; Thu, 31)
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+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 integration branches, but I am
+still holding onto them.
+
+The tip of 'next' will soon be rebuilt on top of the current 'master'.
+

+Initial round of "fixup" action that is similar to "squash" action in
+"rebase -i" that excludes the commit log message from follow-up commits
+when composing the log message for the updated one. Expected is a further

+[Ejected]
+
+* il/exec-error-report (2009-12-30) 2 commits
+ . Improve transport helper exec failure reporting
+ . Report exec errors from run-command
+
+Freezes "git log" or anything that uses pager; J6t made quite a many good
+suggestions. Expecting more rounds of reroll.
+
+* je/send-email-no-subject (2009-08-05) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2009-10-11 at 1b99c56)
+ + send-email: confirm on empty mail subjects
+
+* jc/fix-tree-walk (2009-10-22) 8 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2009-10-22 at 10c0c8f)
+ + Revert failed attempt since 353c5ee
+ + read-tree --debug-unpack

+ + unpack-trees.c: look ahead in the index

+ + Aggressive three-way merge: fix D/F case
+ + traverse_trees(): handle D/F conflict case sanely
+ + more D/F conflict tests
+ + tests: move convenience regexp to match object names to test-lib.sh
+
+This has some stupid bugs and reverted from 'next' until I can fix it, but
+the "temporarily" turned out to be very loooong.
+
+* jc/grep-full-tree (2009-11-24) 1 commit
+ . grep: --full-tree
+
+The interaction with this option and pathspecs need to be worked out
+better. I _think_ "grep --full-tree -e pattern -- '*.h'" should find from
+all the header files in the tree, for example.
