+What's cooking in git.git (Dec 2008, #04; Mon, 29)
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+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.
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[New Topics]
+
+* nd/grep-assume-unchanged (Sat Dec 27 15:21:03 2008 +0700) 2 commits
+ - grep: grep cache entries if they are "assume unchanged"
+ - grep: support --no-ext-grep to test builtin grep
+
+* rs/diff-ihc (Sun Dec 28 19:45:32 2008 +0100) 1 commit
+ + diff: add option to show context between close hunks
+
+* as/maint-shortlog-cleanup (Wed Dec 24 17:34:44 2008 +0100) 2 commits
+ - builtin-shortlog.c: do not unnecessarily strdup before insertion
+ in list
+ - builtin-shortlog.c: use string_list_append() instead of
+ duplicating its code
+
+* js/maint-merge-recursive-r-d-conflict (Mon Dec 22 23:10:20 2008 +0100) 1 commit
+ + merge-recursive: mark rename/delete conflict as unmerged
+
+* kk/maint-http-push (Tue Dec 23 11:31:15 2008 +0300) 1 commit
+ + http-push: support full URI in handle_remote_ls_ctx()
+
+* jc/maint-ls-tree (Thu Dec 25 16:54:23 2008 -0800) 1 commit
+ + ls-tree: add --full-tree option
+
+* mh/maint-sendmail-cc-doc (Mon Dec 29 00:37:25 2008 +0100) 1 commit
+ + doc/git-send-email: mention sendemail.cc config variable
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[Stalled and may need help and prodding to go forward]
+
+* wp/add-patch-find (Thu Nov 27 04:08:03 2008 +0000) 3 commits
+ . In add --patch, Handle K,k,J,j slightly more gracefully.
+ . Add / command in add --patch
+ . git-add -i/-p: Change prompt separater from slash to comma
+
+I am still holding onto this earlier topic to add '/' subcommand to allow
+finding a hunk with given text, but I'd rather not merge/rebase it on top
+of wp/add-p-goto series myself. Waiting for a reroll.
+
+* kb/am-directory (Fri Aug 29 15:27:50 2008 -0700) 1 commit
+ . git-am: Pass the --directory option through to git-apply
+
+A reroll of this by Simon Schubert triggered a series to fix a parameter
+propagation bug, and another reroll to add "git am --directory=path/"
+should be much easier now. I am not likely to use the feature myself, so
+it is up to intrested volunteers to carry it forward.
+
+* ds/uintmax-config (Mon Nov 3 09:14:28 2008 -0900) 1 commit
+ - autoconf: Enable threaded delta search when pthreads are supported
+
+This automatically enables threaded delta search code when autoconf
+detects pthreads are usable. I haven't heard neither positive nor
+negative comments from minority platforms that might be harmed.
+
+* 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
+
+This gives Porcelains (like gitweb) the information on the commit _before_
+the one that the final blame is laid on, which should save them one
+rev-parse to dig further. The line number in the "previous" information
+may need refining, and sanity checking code for reference counting may
+need to be resurrected before this can move forward.
+

+[Actively cooking]
+
+* mk/gitweb-feature (Mon Dec 15 22:16:19 2008 -0800) 1 commit

+ + merge-recursive: do not clobber untracked working tree garbage
+ + modify/delete conflict resolution overwrites untracked file
+
+* cb/maint-merge-recursive-fix (Sun Dec 14 19:40:09 2008 -0800) 2 commits
+ + merge-recursive: do not clobber untracked working tree garbage

+
+Jakub seemed to feel they are not yet ready.
+
+* mv/um-pdf (Wed Dec 10 23:44:50 2008 +0100) 1 commit
+ + Add support for a pdf version of the user manual
+
+I do not have a new enough combination of dblatex and asciidoc myself but
+this may help interested people.
+
+* sc/gitweb-category (Fri Dec 12 00:45:12 2008 +0100) 3 commits
+ - gitweb: Optional grouping of projects by category
+ - gitweb: Split git_project_list_body in two functions

+[Graduated to "master"]
+

+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[Will merge to "master" soon]
+
+* cb/mergetool (Fri Dec 12 21:48:41 2008 +0000) 4 commits
+ + mergetool: Don't keep temporary merge files unless told to
+ + mergetool: Add prompt to continue after failing to merge a file
+ + Add -y/--no-prompt option to mergetool
+ + Fix some tab/space inconsistencies in git-mergetool.sh
+
+I have been waiting for comments from the original author and other
+interested parties, but haven't heard anything yet. This tool is on the
+fringe from my point of view anyway, so I'll push them out to 'master'
+soon. If there is a breakage that annoys real people, we will hear from
+them, and we can take it from there.
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+[On Hold]
+
+* nd/narrow (Sun Nov 30 17:54:38 2008 +0700) 17 commits
+ - wt-status: show sparse checkout info
+ - Introduce default sparse patterns (core.defaultsparse)
+ - checkout: add new options to support sparse checkout
+ - clone: support sparse checkout with --sparse-checkout option
+ - unpack_trees(): add support for sparse checkout
+ - unpack_trees(): keep track of unmerged entries
+ - Introduce "sparse patterns"
+ - Merge branch 'master' into nd/narrow
+ - t2104: touch portability fix
+ - grep: skip files outside sparse checkout area
+ - checkout_entry(): CE_NO_CHECKOUT on checked out entries.
+ - Prevent diff machinery from examining worktree outside sparse
+ checkout
+ - ls-files: Add tests for --sparse and friends
+ - update-index: add --checkout/--no-checkout to update
+ CE_NO_CHECKOUT bit
+ - update-index: refactor mark_valid() in preparation for new options
+ - ls-files: add options to support sparse checkout
+ - Introduce CE_NO_CHECKOUT bit
+
+Kicked out of 'next' by popular demand (see recent discussion on the
+interaction between the checkout area and commands such as "grep").
+
+* jc/clone-symref-2 (Sat Nov 29 23:38:21 2008 -0800) 7 commits
+ - clone: test the new HEAD detection logic
+ - Merge commit 'HEAD@{2}' into HEAD
+ - upload-pack: send the HEAD information
+ - clone: find the current branch more explicitly
+ - connect.c::read_extra_info(): find where HEAD points at
+ - connect.c::read_extra_info(): prepare to receive more than server
+ capabilities
+ - get_remote_heads(): refactor code to read "server capabilities"
+
+An attempt to extend the fetch protocol to make the logic to detect where
+HEAD on the origin site points to more robust.
+
+* cc/bisect-replace (Mon Nov 24 22:20:30 2008 +0100) 9 commits
+ - bisect: add "--no-replace" option to bisect without using replace
+ refs
+ - rev-list: make it possible to disable replacing using "--no-
+ bisect-replace"
+ - bisect: use "--bisect-replace" options when checking merge bases
+ - merge-base: add "--bisect-replace" option to use fixed up revs
+ - commit: add "bisect_replace_all" prototype to "commit.h"
+ - rev-list: add "--bisect-replace" to list revisions with fixed up
+ history
+ - Documentation: add "git bisect replace" documentation
+ - bisect: add test cases for "git bisect replace"
+ - bisect: add "git bisect replace" subcommand
+
+I think a mechanism like this should be added to replace grafts, but it
+should always be enabled for normal revision traversal operation, while
+always disabled for object enumeration and transfer operation (iow, fsck,
+fetch and push should use the real ancestry information recorded in the
+underlying objects, while rev-list, log, etc. should always use the
+replaced objects). I have a suspicion that even cat-file could honor it.
+
+* jc/send-pack-tell-me-more (Thu Mar 20 00:44:11 2008 -0700) 1 commit
+ - "git push": tellme-more protocol extension
+
+This seems to have a deadlock during communication between the peers.
+Someone needs to pick up this topic and resolve the deadlock before it can
+continue.
+
+* 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.
+
+* 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
