Here are some comments and notes on various topics; this message discusses only transitions from 'pu' to 'next'.

I really need to come up with time to check this one.

Type punning in textconv_object() needs to be fixed.

Likewise.

I was not sure why TAP is worth the trouble, and I still am not sure.

Is everybody happy with the naming of --ignore-submodules=<when> and the semantics?

I am not convinced the upstream selection logic between git/svn is right in the tip one. Clues?

If I am not misreading the patch, it does not seem to stop the scanning of the "C-T-E:" header at the end of header; it should.
