[ANNOUNCE] TopGit 0.9

Hello,

I'm pleased to announce that TopGit 0.9 was released today.

TopGit aims to make handling of large amounts of interdependent topic branches easier. In fact, it is designed especially for the case where you maintain a queue of third-party patches on top of another (perhaps Git-controlled) project and want to easily organize, maintain and submit them - TopGit achieves that by keeping a separate topic branch for each patch and providing some tools to maintain the branches.

After a long hiatus, TopGit has a new release, a new maintainer (me), and has moved to GitHub:

   https://github.com/greenrd/topgit

(note that patches are still required to be signed off.)

The 0.9 release is tagged and available for download at: https://github.com/greenrd/topgit/tags (Yes, I know GitHub's display of the tag description is terrible, but it shows up fine in git.)

Because it's been 3 years since the last release, there are quite a few patches since 0.8, but most of them are quite minor changes.

If you are upgrading from the HEAD of the old TopGit repository, all of and only the patches by me, Andrey Borzenkov and Heiko Hund are new compared to that revision.

Patches can be submitted either to me, to this list, or to the GitHub issue tracker. There is also an IRC channel, #topgit on irc.freenode.net.

Regards, Robin Green
