 Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
 '-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
 '+' are in 'next'.
 
-I haven't had time to write comments (they are essentially release
-notes entries to be used when/if the topic graduates to 'master')
-for new topics, but I am pushing this out to show the current state

+People, coming up with new topics is fine, but please pay attention

+applied to either 'master' or 'maint' merge cleanly to 'next' and
+'pu'?  If not, please coordinate with whoever is working in the same

+* jc/exec-cmd-system-path-leak-fix (2014-11-30) 1 commit

+ - t5516: more tests for receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead
+ - receive-pack: add another option for receive.denyCurrentBranch
+ (this branch is used by jc/push-to-checkout.)
+
+ "git push" into a repository with a working tree normally refuses
+ to modify the branch that is checked out.  The command learned to
+ optionally do an equivalent of "git reset --hard" only when there
+ is no change to the working tree and the index instead, which would
+ be useful to "deploy" by pushing into a repository.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
+
+
+* jc/push-to-checkout (2014-12-01) 2 commits
+ - receive-pack: support push-to-checkout hook
+ - receive-pack: refactor updateInstead codepath
+ (this branch uses js/push-to-deploy.)
+
+ Extending the js/push-to-deploy topic, the behaviour of "git push"
+ when updating the working tree and the index with an update to the
+ branch that is checked out can be tweaked by push-to-checkout hook.
+
+ Needs docs.
+
+
+* lh/send-email-hide-x-mailer (2014-12-03) 2 commits
+ - SQUASH???
+ - send-email: add --[no-]xmailer option
+
+ "git send-email" normally identifies itself via X-Mailer: header
+ in the message it sends out.  A new command line flag allows the
+ header to be squelched.
+

+* ms/submodule-update-config-doc (2014-11-03) 1 commit

+
+ Needs a reroll ($gmane/259037).
+
+
+* je/quiltimport-no-fuzz (2014-10-21) 2 commits
+ - git-quiltimport: flip the default not to allow fuzz
+ - git-quiltimport.sh: allow declining fuzz with --exact option
+
+ "quiltimport" drove "git apply" always with -C1 option to reduce
+ context of the patch in order to give more chance to somewhat stale
+ patches to apply.  Add an "--exact" option to disable, and also
+ "-C$n" option to customize this behaviour.  The top patch
+ optionally flips the default to "--exact".
+
+ Tired of waiting for an Ack; will discard.
+
+
+* jc/push-cert-hmac-optim (2014-09-25) 2 commits
+ - receive-pack: truncate hmac early and convert only necessary bytes
+ - sha1_to_hex: split out "hex-format n bytes" helper and use it
+
+ This is "we could do this if we wanted to", not "we measured and it
+ improves performance critical codepath".
+
+ Will perhaps drop.
+
+
+* mt/patch-id-stable (2014-06-10) 1 commit
+ - patch-id: change default to stable
+
+ Teaches "git patch-id" to compute the patch ID that does not change
+ when the files in a single patch is reordered. As this new algorithm
+ is backward incompatible, the last bit to flip it to be the default
+ is left out of 'master' for now.
+
+ Nobody seems to be jumping up & down requesting this last step,
+ which makes the result somewhat backward incompatible.
+ Will perhaps drop.
+
+
+* tr/remerge-diff (2014-11-10) 9 commits
+ - t4213: avoid "|" in sed regexp
+ - log --remerge-diff: show what the conflict resolution changed
+ - name-hash: allow dir hashing even when !ignore_case
+ - merge-recursive: allow storing conflict hunks in index
+ - merge_diff_mode: fold all merge diff variants into an enum
+ - combine-diff: do not pass revs->dense_combined_merges redundantly
+ - merge-recursive: -Xindex-only to leave worktree unchanged
+ - merge-recursive: internal flag to avoid touching the worktree
+ - merge-recursive: remove dead conditional in update_stages()
+
+ "log -p" output learns a new way to let users inspect a merge
+ commit by showing the differences between the automerged result
+ with conflicts the person who recorded the merge would have seen
+ and the final conflict resolution that was recorded in the merge.
+
+ Waiting for a reroll ($gmane/256591).
+
+
+* hv/submodule-config (2014-11-11) 4 commits
+ - do not die on error of parsing fetchrecursesubmodules option
+ - use new config API for worktree configurations of submodules
+ - extract functions for submodule config set and lookup
+ - implement submodule config cache for lookup of submodule names
+
+ Kicked back to 'pu' per request ($gmane/255610).

+ - userdiff: support Java try keyword
+ - userdiff: support C# async methods and correct C# keywords
+
+ Reviews sent; waiting for a response.
+
+
+* bg/rebase-off-of-previous-branch (2014-04-16) 1 commit
+ - git-rebase: print name of rev when using shorthand
+
+ Teach "git rebase -" to report the concrete name of the branch
+ (i.e. the previous one).
+
+ But it stops short and does not do the same for "git rebase @{-1}".
+ Expecting a reroll.
+
+
+* rb/merge-prepare-commit-msg-hook (2014-01-10) 4 commits
+ - merge: drop unused arg from abort_commit method signature
+ - merge: make prepare_to_commit responsible for write_merge_state
+ - t7505: ensure cleanup after hook blocks merge
+ - t7505: add missing &&
+
+ Expose more merge states (e.g. $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MODE) to hooks that
+ run during "git merge".  The log message stresses too much on one
+ hook, prepare-commit-msg, but it would equally apply to other hooks
+ like post-merge, I think.
+
+ Waiting for a reroll.
+
+
+* jc/graph-post-root-gap (2013-12-30) 3 commits
+ - WIP: document what we want at the end
+ - graph: remove unused code a bit
+ - graph: stuff the current commit into graph->columns[]
+
+ This was primarily a RFH ($gmane/239580).
+
+
+* tg/perf-lib-test-perf-cleanup (2013-09-19) 2 commits
+ - perf-lib: add test_perf_cleanup target
+ - perf-lib: split starting the test from the execution
+
+ Add test_perf_cleanup shell function to the perf suite, that allows
+ the script writers to define a test with a clean-up action.
+
+ Will hold.
+
+
+* jc/show-branch (2014-03-24) 5 commits
+ - show-branch: use commit slab to represent bitflags of arbitrary width
+ - show-branch.c: remove "all_mask"
+ - show-branch.c: abstract out "flags" operation
+ - show-branch.c: lift all_mask/all_revs to a global static

+ A replacement for contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir that does not

+ by making the borrowee and borrowers aware of each other.
+
+ A few tests need some tweaks for MinGW ($gmane/{257756,257757}).

-* je/quiltimport-no-fuzz (2014-10-21) 2 commits
- - git-quiltimport: flip the default not to allow fuzz
- - git-quiltimport.sh: allow declining fuzz with --exact option
-
- "quiltimport" drove "git apply" always with -C1 option to reduce
- context of the patch in order to give more chance to somewhat stale
- patches to apply.  Add an "--exact" option to disable, and also
- "-C$n" option to customize this behaviour.  The top patch
- optionally flips the default to "--exact".
-
- Waiting for an Ack.

-* jc/push-cert-hmac-optim (2014-09-25) 2 commits
- - receive-pack: truncate hmac early and convert only necessary bytes
- - sha1_to_hex: split out "hex-format n bytes" helper and use it
-
- This is "we could do this if we wanted to", not "we measured and it
- improves performance critical codepath".

-
- A replacement for contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir that does not
- rely on symbolic links and make sharing of objects and refs safer
- by making the borrowee and borrowers aware of each other.
-
- A few tests need some tweaks for MinGW ($gmane/{257756,257757}).
- Conflicts with rs/ref-transaction so ejected for now, waiting for a
- reroll.

-
-* mt/patch-id-stable (2014-06-10) 1 commit
- - patch-id: change default to stable
-
- Teaches "git patch-id" to compute the patch ID that does not change
- when the files in a single patch is reordered. As this new algorithm
- is backward incompatible, the last bit to flip it to be the default
- is left out of 'master' for now.
-
- Nobody seems to be jumping up & down requesting this last step,
- which makes the result somewhat backward incompatible.
- Will perhaps drop.

-
-* tr/remerge-diff (2014-11-10) 9 commits
- - t4213: avoid "|" in sed regexp
- - log --remerge-diff: show what the conflict resolution changed

-
- "log -p" output learns a new way to let users inspect a merge
- commit by showing the differences between the automerged result
- with conflicts the person who recorded the merge would have seen
- and the final conflict resolution that was recorded in the merge.
-
- Waiting for a reroll ($gmane/256591).

-* hv/submodule-config (2014-11-11) 4 commits
- - do not die on error of parsing fetchrecursesubmodules option
- - use new config API for worktree configurations of submodules
- - extract functions for submodule config set and lookup
- - implement submodule config cache for lookup of submodule names
-
- Kicked back to 'pu' per request ($gmane/255610).

-
-* bg/rebase-off-of-previous-branch (2014-04-16) 1 commit
- - git-rebase: print name of rev when using shorthand
-
- Teach "git rebase -" to report the concrete name of the branch
- (i.e. the previous one).
-
- But it stops short and does not do the same for "git rebase @{-1}".
- Expecting a reroll.
-
-
-* rb/merge-prepare-commit-msg-hook (2014-01-10) 4 commits
- - merge: drop unused arg from abort_commit method signature
- - merge: make prepare_to_commit responsible for write_merge_state
- - t7505: ensure cleanup after hook blocks merge
- - t7505: add missing &&
-
- Expose more merge states (e.g. $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MODE) to hooks that
- run during "git merge".  The log message stresses too much on one
- hook, prepare-commit-msg, but it would equally apply to other hooks
- like post-merge, I think.
-
- Waiting for a reroll.
-
-
-* jc/graph-post-root-gap (2013-12-30) 3 commits
- - WIP: document what we want at the end

- - perf-lib: add test_perf_cleanup target
- - perf-lib: split starting the test from the execution
-
- Add test_perf_cleanup shell function to the perf suite, that allows
- the script writers to define a test with a clean-up action.
-
- Will hold.
-
-
-* jc/show-branch (2014-03-24) 5 commits
- - show-branch: use commit slab to represent bitflags of arbitrary width

- - show-branch.c: lift all_mask/all_revs to a global static
- - show-branch.c: update comment style
-
- Waiting for the final step to lift the hard-limit before sending it out.
