* rs/pretty (Wed Nov 7 00:17:14 2007 +0100) 1 commit
 - pretty=format: Avoid some expensive calculations when not needed

The numbers are impressive and the code is reasonably clean, but René seems to have further improvements to the API?

* sb/clean (Sun Nov 4 13:02:21 2007 -0600) 1 commit
 - Make git-clean a builtin

I ran out of time to look at the replacement patch.  Sorry.

* ss/dirty-rebase (Thu Nov 1 22:30:24 2007 +0100) 3 commits
 - Make git-svn rebase --dirty pass along --dirty to git-rebase.
 - Implement --dirty for git-rebase--interactive.

Really need to look at this series to merge to 'next'.  Sorry.

---------------------------------------------------------------- [Stalled]

* bs/maint-commit-options (Mon Nov 5 20:36:33 2007 +0100) 1 commit
 - git-commit.sh: Fix usage checks regarding paths given when they do
   not make sense

This is waiting for tests. Then merge to 'next', 'master' and then to 'maint'.

* nd/maint-work-tree-fix (Sat Nov 3 20:18:06 2007 +0700) 1 commit
 + Add missing inside_work_tree setting in setup_git_directory_gently

* rr/cvsexportcommit-w (Wed Oct 31 23:12:20 2007 +0100) 1 commit
 + cvsexportcommit: Add switch to specify CVS workdir

Need success stories, but pushing it out to 'master' may be the only way to get users' attention.

* jc/spht (Fri Nov 2 17:46:55 2007 -0700) 3 commits
 + core.whitespace: add test for diff whitespace error highlighting
 + git-diff: complain about >=8 consecutive spaces in initial indent
 + War on whitespace: first, a bit of retreat.

Remaining tasks are:

 1. teach "git-apply --whitespace=[warn|strip]" the same;
 2. (possibly) use gitattributes instead of config.

 - Let git-add--interactive read colors from .gitconfig
 - Added basic color support to git add --interactive

There was a RFH to avoid "require Term::ANSIColor" in Git.pm and a suggestion in response to it, but I do not recall anything happened afterwards. Stalled.

* js/reflog-delete (Wed Oct 17 02:50:45 2007 +0100) 1 commit
 + Teach "git reflog" a subcommand to delete single entries

This does not have a in-tree user yet.

 - Implement git commit and status as a builtin commands.
 - Export launch_editor() and make it accept ':' as a no-op editor.

 - git-fetch: avoid local fetching from alternate (again)
 - run-command: allow discarding the standard error output

* jk/rename (Tue Oct 30 00:24:42 2007 -0400) 3 commits
 - handle renames using similarity engine
 - introduce generic similarity library
 - change hash table calling conventions

This does not pass tests.

 - test format-patch -s: make sure MIME content type is shown as
   needed
 - format-patch -s: add MIME encoding header if signer's name
   requires so

This is already in 'master' but rebased for 'maint', just in case we would want a maint release with this series.

* jc/branch-contains (Wed Nov 7 14:58:09 2007 -0800) 1 commit
 - git-branch --with=commit

This was just for fun.

 - pathspec_can_match(): move it from builtin-ls-tree.c to tree.c
 - ls-tree.c: refactor show_recursive() and rename it.
 - tree-diff.c: split out a function to match a single pattern.

My pet peeve.  Completely stalled.

 - merge-nu: a new merge backend without using unpack_trees()
 - read_tree: take an explicit index structure
 - gcc 4.2.1 -Werror -Wall -ansi -pedantic -std=c99: minimum fix

Seriously stalled.
