We've accumulated quite a bit of fixes on 'maint', so I need to do a 1.5.1.3 release soonish, as we will go into feature freeze on 'master' shortly in preparation for 1.5.2.

On the 'master' front, things have been stabilizing. Modulo documentation updates and bugfixes, I expect what we have here tonight will be pretty much what the final 1.5.2 would look like. I already know Shawn has plans to feed git-gui 0.6.6 updates, which should also be included in the final one.

But I might have missed or dismissed patches we have seen and reviewed on the list recently that deserve to be in 1.5.2, so please raise hand if you see something missing. After that, I'll tag v1.5.2-rc1 and from there we will do the usual "no new features, options, commands -- only fixes", which hopefully will happen on Monday.
