Please no. :) We already have a nice set of features for 2.0 and I hope people have as few excuses not to upgrade as possible. Anything that actually needs the same kind of treatment that is introduced now should wait for 3.0.

Removing repo-config, tar-tree, and peek-remote sounds fine to me (though I haven't thought much about it either way) and I agree that it wouldn't need to wait for an x.0 release.

Thanks, Jonathan
