Subject: What's cooking in git.git (Nov 2008, #03; Sun, 09)
X-master-at: a9645b780b698703cd7dee25051d6ce39b0544c6

What's cooking in git.git (Nov 2008, #03; Sun, 09)
--------------------------------------------------
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.
----------------------------------------------------------------

* 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'.
----------------------------------------------------------------

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.
