The 'maint' branch is at 1.6.0.6, which hopefully will be the last maintenance release until 1.6.1 final.

Earlier I said I'd like to have 1.6.1 final this weekend, but I'd rather play safe and tag -rc4 tonight (gee, it is already 04:00am), and leave the final 1.6.0 as Christmas present to git users.

 * Paul has one patch on his gitk branch I have fetched but not merged yet;
   waiting for his go-ahead.
 * I am undecided whether I should include the "rebase -i -p" patch from
   j6t in 1.6.1 and have been waiting for comments from Dscho.
 * A documentation patch from Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. to add a reference to
   the new HowTo page from git-revert manpage and an additional warning to
   git-revert from Robin Rosenberg are still not in yet, but I would like
   to have them with updates in 1.6.1 final.

Other than that, the 'master' I am pusing out is pretty much it for 1.6.1.

By the way, 'master' and 'maint' of git.git repository are also mirrored at git://git.sourceforge.jp/gitroot/git-core/git.git (and they have gitweb http://git.sourceforge.jp/view?p=git-core/git.git). People who are following my blog may already have been aware of this, though.
