How is this related to my patches from April? See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/170853. It's clearly not the same problem, but will the patches conflict? Will some of mine be unnecessary? > Thanks for reminding me that I did not yet apply and push. Did so now. What do you mean by this? Push to where? git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/gitk/gitk.git is still down. Paul and Junio, the patches I sent in April are still not in git.git, are they? Can we use another repo until the kernel.org one is up? More than eight months to get a patch (or eight) merged is way too long, IMO. Martin
