I need to go through the entire chain and take a close look at it. If I have no big objections, I'll merge it in in a few hours.

late merge. If not let's target the next release.

This one will go in. I have merged it locally but haven't pushed it out

There is also the auto-rescan patch [0]. I am almost done with the

have to wait till the next merge window unfortunately.

Thanks for all the work on git-gui :-)
