only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'.
-The fifth batch of topics in this cycle is now in 'master'. I also
-merged accumulated fixes that have been in 'master' since v1.7.10 to

-* cc/fix-missing-va-end-in-revert (2012-04-21) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-04-23 at b90eb70)

-
-* fc/completion-tests (2012-04-21) 7 commits

-* hv/submodule-recurse-push (2012-03-30) 3 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-04-20 at fe99e3d)
- + push: teach --recurse-submodules the on-demand option

-* it/fetch-pack-many-refs (2012-04-10) 4 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-04-20 at e2126d7)
- + remote-curl: main test case for the OS command line overflow
- + fetch-pack: test cases for the new --stdin option
- + remote-curl: send the refs to fetch-pack on stdin
- + fetch-pack: new --stdin option to read refs from stdin
-
-When "git fetch" encounters repositories with too many references, the
-command line of "fetch-pack" that is run by a helper e.g. remote-curl,
-may fail to hold all of them. Now such an internal invocation can feed
-the references through the standard input of "fetch-pack".

+ + cherry-pick: do not expect file arguments
---------------------------------------------------
-[New Topics]
+The command line parser choked "git cherry-pick $name" when $name can be
+both revision name and a pathname, even though $name can never be a path
+in the context of the command.
-* mm/simple-push (2012-04-24) 7 commits
- - push.default doc: explain simple after upstream
- - push: document the future default change for push.default (matching -> simple)
- - t5570: use explicit push refspec
- - push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"
- - t5528-push-default.sh: add helper functions
- - Undocument deprecated alias 'push.default=tracking'
- - Documentation: explain push.default option a bit more
- (this branch is used by mm/push-default-switch-warning.)
+The issue the patch addresses is real, but the way it is implemented felt
+unnecessarily invasive a bit. It may be cleaner for this caller to add
+the "--" to the end of the argv_array it passes to setup_revisions().
-New users tend to work on one branch at a time and push the result
-out. The current and upstream modes of push is a more suitable default
-mode than matching mode for these people, but neither is surprise-free
-depending on how the project is set up. Introduce a "simple" mode that
-is a subset of "upstream" but only works when the branch is named the same
-between the remote and local repositories.
+* cb/http-multi-curl-auth (2012-04-14) 4 commits

+ + http: clean up leak in init_curl_http_auth
+ + fix http auth with multiple curl handles
+ + http auth fails with multiple curl handles
-The plan is to make it the new default when push.default is not
-configured.
+Fixes http authentication breakage when we keep multiple HTTP requests in
+flight using curl-multi.

-Refs API is updated to lazily read sub-hierarchies of refs/ namespace,

+
+The shell construct to launch git-daemon and wait for it to start

+
+Replaced cb/daemon-test-race-fix topic with this, as this addresses

Trivially shrinks the on-disk size of the index file to save both I/O and
-checksum overhead. The "v4" format represented here may not be what we
-eventually want to have, but the preparatory refactoring steps and the way
-how backward compatibility is retained should give plenty to learn to GSoC
-student-hopefuls.
-
-The bottom one makes use of "varint" encoding from the stalled
-jc/split-blob topic.
+checksum overhead. It even comes with a technical doc updates ;-)

-only be useful if people start doing more interesting things with hooks.
