+What's cooking in git.git (Oct 2011, #08; Fri, 21)
--------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are
only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'.
-The fifth batch of topics started graduating to the master branch. It is
-probably a good point to stop taking new topics and start switching our
-focus to fixing bugs in the topics already in 'master'.
+It probably is a good point to stop taking new topics and start
+switching our focus to fixing bugs in the topics already in 'master'.
Here are the repositories that have my integration branches:
With maint, master, next, pu, todo, html and man:
- git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
- git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git
- https://code.google.com/p/git-core/
- https://github.com/git/git
+ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
+ git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git
+ https://code.google.com/p/git-core/
+ https://github.com/git/git
With only maint, master, html and man:
- git://git.sourceforge.jp/gitroot/git-core/git.git
- git://git-core.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/git-core/git-core
+ git://git.sourceforge.jp/gitroot/git-core/git.git

With all the topics and integration branches but not todo, html or man:

+
+By the way, I am planning to stop pushing the generated documentation
+branches to the above repositories in the near term, as they are not
+sources. The only reason the source repository at k.org has hosted these
+branches was because it was the only repository over there that was
+writable by me; it was an ugly historical and administrative workaround
+and not a demonstration of the best practice.
+
+They are pushed to their own separate repositories instead:
+
+ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-{htmldocs,manpages}.git/
+ git://repo.or.cz/git-{htmldocs,manpages}.git/
+ https://code.google.com/p/git-{htmldocs,manpages}.git/

Perhaps 281eee4 (revision: keep track of the end-user input from the
command line, 2011-08-25) would help.

- - revert: further simplify parsing of a line in insn sheet
- - revert: Simplify passing command-line arguments around
- - revert: Allow mixed pick and revert instructions
- - revert: Make commit descriptions in insn sheet optional
- - revert: Fix buffer overflow in insn sheet parser
- - revert: Simplify getting commit subject
- - revert: Free memory after get_message call

-Probably needs a little bit more polish, e.g. squashing the tip fixup into

+ (this branch is tangled with jc/broken-ref-dwim-fix.)
-An attempt to fix-up unfortunate side effect of mh/check-ref-format-3
-topic. "git show -s config" is never meant to refer to $GIT_DIR/config
-and treat it as a file that records an object name. But tightening the
-rule for reading side means we would need to tighten the rule for the
-writing side, too, which turned out to be rather nasty fallout that
-needs to be sorted out before the next release.
+This became a no-op except for the bottom one which is part of the other
+topic now.
+Will discard once the other topic graduates to 'master'.
* pw/p4-update (2011-10-17) 6 commits

- (this branch uses mh/ref-api.)
+ (this branch is used by mh/ref-api-3; uses mh/ref-api.)
+
+It is either merge this quickly to 'master' and hope there won't be any
+more unexpected breakage that forces us to delay the release, or hold it
+on 'next' until the next cycle. I am inclined to the former, but not quite
+ready to commit to it yet.
* po/insn-editor (2011-10-17) 1 commit

- log: --show-signature
- commit: teach --gpg-sign option
- Split GPG interface into its own helper library
-This is to replace the earlier "signed push" experiments. "verify-tag"
-equivalent needs to be written before this can proceed. I suspect that
-teaching "verify-tag" to notice and also handle signed commits would be
-the easiest, but "git tag --verify $commit" might look slightly funny
-from the UI POV. I dunno.
