Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'.

The topics list the commits in reverse chronological order. The topics meant to be merged to the maintenance series have "maint-" in their names.

---------------------------------------------------------------- [New Topics]

* jk/deny-push-to-current (Sat Nov 8 20:49:27 2008 -0500) 2 commits
 + receive-pack: detect push to current branch of non-bare repo
 + t5516: refactor oddball tests
* dl/xdiff (Fri Nov 7 21:24:33 2008 -0800) 1 commit
 + xdiff: give up scanning similar lines early
This performance fix may eventually need to be cherry-picked to 'maint'.

---------------------------------------------------------------- [Graduated to "master"]

* cb/maint-update-ref-fix (Wed Nov 5 21:55:54 2008 +0100) 2 commits

* rs/blame (Sat Oct 25 15:31:36 2008 +0200) 5 commits
 + blame: use xdi_diff_hunks(), get rid of struct patch
 + add xdi_diff_hunks() for callers that only need hunk lengths
 + Allow alternate "low-level" emit function from xdl_diff
 + Always initialize xpparam_t to 0
 + blame: inline get_patch()
* ds/autoconf (Sun Oct 26 03:52:19 2008 -0800) 1 commit

Attempts to help FreeBSD whose compiler does not error out when told to compile a program that calls unavailable functions.

---------------------------------------------------------------- [Actively Cooking]

   packs

   improvements

   repack

   trees

 - autoconf: Enable threaded delta search when pthreads are supported
 + Add autoconf tests for pthreads

I split the part that unconditionally enable threaded delta search on any platform on which Pthread library is detected to be available from the topmost one.

   checkout

 - update-index: add --checkout/--no-checkout to update
   CE_NO_CHECKOUT bit
 - update-index: refactor mark_valid() in preparation for new options
 - ls-files: add options to support sparse checkout
 - Introduce CE_NO_CHECKOUT bit
 - Extend index to save more flags

Early parts looked Ok; I am trying to find time to review the whole thing but fixing bugs in topics from other people here and there took almost all my time this weekend. Not good.

---------------------------------------------------------------- [Dropped]

* bc/maint-keep-pack (Mon Nov 3 14:43:22 2008 -0600) 3 commits
 . pack-objects: honor '.keep' files
 . packed_git: convert pack_local flag into a bitfield and add
   pack_keep
 . t7700: demonstrate mishandling of objects in packs with a .keep
   file
It seems this is better rethought from the design level.

---------------------------------------------------------------- [On Hold]

* jc/send-pack-tell-me-more (Thu Mar 20 00:44:11 2008 -0700) 1 commit
 - "git push": tellme-more protocol extension

This seems to have a deadlock during communication between the peers. Someone needs to pick up this topic and resolve the deadlock before it can continue.

* jk/renamelimit (Sat May 3 13:58:42 2008 -0700) 1 commit
 - diff: enable "too large a rename" warning when -M/-C is explicitly
   asked for

This would be the right thing to do for command line use, but gitk will be hit due to tcl/tk's limitation, so I am holding this back for now.
