... and I think I've collected all the recent leftover topics from the list that are at least going in the right direction if not perfect and queued them to update 'pu'.

Hopefully I can tag 1.7.7-rc1 by the end of the month. Please help find regressions in the "master" branch, and the topics still in "next" that are slated for 1.7.7 (see the latest "What's cooking").

Thanks.

Here is a preview of the "New Topics" section of the next "What's cooking".

[New Topics]
* mg/maint-notes-C-doc (2011-08-25) 1 commit
 - git-notes.txt: clarify -C vs. copy and -F
* jc/clean-exclude-doc (2011-08-26) 1 commit
 - Documentation: clarify "git clean -e <pattern>"
* mh/check-ref-format-print-normalize (2011-08-25) 1 commit
 - check-ref-format --print: Normalize refnames that start with slashes

These tiny clean-up topics could go to 1.7.7 final. On the other hand, they are not urgent, either.

* bk/ancestry-path (2011-08-25) 3 commits
 - revision: do not include sibling history in --ancestry-path output
 - revision: keep track of the end-user input from the command line
 - rev-list: Demonstrate breakage with --ancestry-path --all
The topic came up a bit too late in the cycle.
* mg/branch-list (2011-08-26) 5 commits
 - branch: allow pattern arguments
 - branch: introduce --list option
 - git-branch: introduce missing long forms for the options
 - git-tag: introduce long forms for the options
 - t6040: test branch -vv
 (this branch uses nk/branch-v-abbrev.)
The topic came up a bit too late in the cycle.
* mm/rebase-i-exec-edit (2011-08-26) 2 commits
 - rebase -i: notice and warn if "exec $cmd" modifies the index or the working tree
 - rebase -i: clean error message for --continue after failed exec
The topic came up a bit too late in the cycle.
* jk/default-attr (2011-08-26) 1 commit
 - attr: map builtin userdiff drivers to well-known extensions
I fixed up the test breakage just for fun, but this is not urgent.
* hv/submodule-merge-search (2011-08-26) 4 commits
 - submodule: Search for merges only at end of recursive merge
 - allow multiple calls to submodule merge search for the same path
 - submodule: Demonstrate known breakage during recursive merge
 - push: Don't push a repository with unpushed submodules
 (this branch uses fg/submodule-ff-check-before-push, fg/submodule-ff-check-before-push and jc/combine-diff-callback.)

The topic came up a bit too late in the cycle. The bottom one needs to be replaced with a properly written commit log message.

* mm/mediawiki-as-a-remote (2011-08-26) 1 commit
 - Add a remote helper to interact with mediawiki (fetch & push)
Fun.
* nd/maint-autofix-tag-in-head (2011-08-26) 3 commits
 - Accept tags in HEAD or MERGE_HEAD
 - merge: remove global variable head[]
 - merge: keep stash[] a local variable
Probably needs a re-roll to aim a bit higher.

Not yet 1.7.7-rc1 but...

... here is an updated preview of the "New Topics" section of the next issue of "What's cooking". People sent in fixes to bugs several topics that are new in 1.7.7-rc0 have introduced, and while they are still on the "pu" (proposed updates) branch for tonight, they should and will be fast tracked to 1.7.7-rc1.

Thanks.
