+What's cooking in git.git (Nov 2018, #01; Thu, 1)
--------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. 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.
-Quite a few topics have graduated to 'master'. At seventh batch,
-'master' now has 530+ patches since v2.19 and 'next' has additional
-100+ patches pending. I am hoping that the topics involved in
-rewriting "rebase" and "rebase -i" in C can hit 'master' in the next
-batch, which would happen later this week.
+Two groups of "rewrite rebase/rebase-i in C" topics, together with a
+handful of associated fix-up topics to them, will all be merged to
+'master' tomorrow. Some of them haven't spent as much time as usual
+in 'next', so there still may be rough edges, but let's make sure we
+find them and smooth them out before the release.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at
object into account (e.g. a tag object would want to go under
refs/tags/).
+ The last few steps are questionable.

A pattern with '**' that does not have a slash on either side used
to be an invalid one, but the code now treats such double-asterisks
the same way as two normal asterisks that happen to be adjacent to
each other.
