I just read through the manual cover to cover, so I have a number of other fixes in the pipe (from which I've already submitted the receive.denyCurrentBranch patch). Should I bundle them all into a single series to reduce clutter on the list, or will that just lead to resending boring fixes while we hash out the right handling for more involved ones?

Cheers, Trevor
