I commented on two of the patches; the rest look good to me.

I rebased on these (minus the repo_version_string change from 10/10). Wasn't too bad.  And it did clean up the submodule check.

I will wait to resend my series until I hear back about your shortlog/mailmap fix and your suggestion on a better archive --remote fix.
