 * jc/1.7.0-push-safety (2009-02-09) 2 commits

 * jc/1.7.0-diff-whitespace-only-status (2009-08-30) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-10-11 at 546c74d)
 + diff.c: fix typoes in comments
 + Make test case number unique
 + diff: Rename QUIET internal option to QUICK
 + diff: change semantics of "ignore whitespace" options
 (this branch is used by jc/1.7.0-diff-whitespace-prepare and jc/diff-whitespace-prepare.)
 This changes exit code from "git diff --ignore-whitespace" and friends
 when there is no actual output.
 * gb/1.7.0-diff-whitespace-only-output (2009-11-19) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-11-21 at 3375bf4)
 + No diff -b/-w output for all-whitespace changes
 (this branch is used by jc/1.7.0-diff-whitespace-prepare and jc/diff-whitespace-prepare.)
 Likewise but for the output of "diff --git" headers.
 * jk/1.7.0-status (2009-12-11) 16 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-12-24 at e9929b3)
 + status/commit: do not suggest "reset HEAD <path>" while merging
 + commit/status: "git add <path>" is not necessarily how to resolve
 + commit/status: check $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD only once
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-12-08 at 9b57d84)
 + t7508-status: test all modes with color
 + t7508-status: status --porcelain ignores relative paths setting
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-12-07 at 7723acf)
 + status: reduce duplicated setup code
 + status: disable color for porcelain format
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-12-05 at 44dcefd)
 + status -s: obey color.status
 + builtin-commit: refactor short-status code into wt-status.c
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-11-27 at 91691ec)

  (merged to 'next' on 2009-11-21 at 884bb56)
 + docs: note that status configuration affects only long format
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-10-11 at 65c8513)
 + commit: support alternate status formats
 + status: add --porcelain output format
 + status: refactor format option parsing
 + status: refactor short-mode printing to its own function
 (this branch uses jc/1.7.0-status.)
 Gives the --short output format to post 1.7.0 "git commit --dry-run" that
 is similar to that of post 1.7.0 "git status".
 * jc/1.7.0-status (2009-09-05) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2009-10-11 at 9558627)
 + status: typo fix in usage
 + git status: not "commit --dry-run" anymore
 + git stat -s: short status output
 + git stat: the beginning of "status that is not a dry-run of commit"
 (this branch is used by jk/1.7.0-status.)
 With this, "git status" is no longer "git commit --dry-run".

 The interaction with this option and pathspecs need to be worked out
 better.  I _think_ "grep --full-tree -e pattern -- '*.h'" should find from
 all the header files in the tree, for example.
 * cc/reset-more (2009-12-08) 6 commits
 . Documentation: reset: add some tables to describe the different options
 . Documentation: reset: describe new "--keep-local-changes" option
 . reset: add test cases for "--keep-local-changes" option
 . reset: add option "--keep-local-changes" to "git reset"
 . reset: use "unpack_trees()" directly instead of "git read-tree"
 . reset: add a few tests for "git reset --merge"
 The documentation is much clearer than the previous round in describing
 what it does, but I find it a bit unclear in describing what it is _good_
 for (iow, scenarios and use cases).
 Breaks 'pu' and does not pass test on its own yet.
