I'll send out the real report probably\ntomorrow or the day after.\n\n--------------------------------------------------\n[New Topics]\n\n* ss/git-svn-prompt-sans-terminal (2012-01-03) 2 commits\n - git-svn, perl/Git.pm: extend Git::prompt helper for querying users\n - perl/Git.pm: \"prompt\" helper to honor GIT_ASKPASS and SSH_ASKPASS\n\nThe bottom one has been replaced with a rewrite based on comments from\nÆvar, and the top one was adjusted to it. Peff's suggestion to give\nprecedence to tty over SSH_ASKPASS when terminal is available may make\nsense for the second one, so we may want to fix the second one further\nonce 1.7.9 is out. I think the bottom one is OK for 1.7.9.\n\nWill merge the bottom one to 'next' soonish.\n\n* pw/p4-view-updates (2012-01-03) 6 commits\n  (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-03 at c3b5872)\n + git-p4: view spec documentation\n + git-p4: rewrite view handling\n + git-p4: support single file p4 client view maps\n + git-p4: sort client views by reverse View number\n + git-p4: fix test for unsupported P4 Client Views\n + git-p4: test client view handling\n\nWill merge to 'master' by 1.7.9 unless real git-p4 users object (I am not\none of them, so I cannot really judge).\n\n--------------------------------------------------\n[Graduated to \"master\"]\n\n* jv/maint-config-set (2011-12-27) 1 commit\n  (merged to 'next' on 2011-12-27 at 551ac8f)\n + Fix an incorrect reference to --set-all.\n\n* pw/p4-docs-and-tests (2011-12-27) 11 commits\n  (merged to 'next' on 2011-12-28 at 8acf26e)\n + git-p4: document and test submit options\n + git-p4: test and document --use-client-spec\n + git-p4: test --keep-path\n + git-p4: test --max-changes\n + git-p4: document and test --import-local\n + git-p4: honor --changesfile option and test\n + git-p4: document and test clone --branch\n + git-p4: test cloning with two dirs, clarify doc\n + git-p4: clone does not use --git-dir\n + git-p4: introduce asciidoc documentation\n + rename git-p4 tests\n\n--------------------------------------------------\n[Cooking]\n\n* jh/fetch-head-update (2012-01-03) 1 commit\n - write first for-merge ref to FETCH_HEAD first\n\nWill merge to 'next'.\n\n* jc/signed-commit (2011-11-29) 5 commits\n  (merged to 'next' on 2011-12-21 at 8fcbf00)\n + gpg-interface: allow use of a custom GPG binary\n + pretty: %G[?GS] placeholders\n + test \"commit -S\" and \"log --show-signature\"\n + log: --show-signature\n + commit: teach --gpg-sign option\n\nI am ambivalent on this one. I do not desperately need it myself, I know\nthe kernel folks do not, I heard some other people might.\n\nWe should to do something similar to what we do for the embedded \"gpgsig\"\nheader in this series to the embedded \"mergetag\" header that is used to\nrecord a merge of a signed tag when the \"--show-signature\" option and/or\n\"%G[?GS]\" pretty placeholders are used, so it may make sense to merge this\nand build such feature on top of it before 1.7.9 ships.\n\nOpinions?\n"}]}
