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 applied to the maintenance series have "maint-" in their names. It already is beginning to become clear what 1.6.0 will look like. What's already in 'next' all are well intentioned (I do not guarantee they are already bug-free --- that is what cooking them in 'next' is for) and are good set of feature enhancements. Bigger changes will be: * Port for MinGW. * With the default Makefile settings, most of the programs will be installed outside your $PATH, except for "git", "gitk", "git-gui" and some server side programs that need to be accessible for technical reasons. Invoking a git subcommand as "git-xyzzy" from the command line has been deprecated since early 2006 (and officially announced in 1.5.4 release notes); use of them from your scripts after adding output from "git --exec-path" to the $PATH will still be supported in 1.6.0, but users are again strongly encouraged to adjust their scripts to use "git xyzzy" form, as we will stop installing "git-xyzzy" hardlinks for built-in commands in later releases. * git-merge will be rewritten in C. * default pack and idx versions will be updated as scheduled for some time ago. * GIT_CONFIG, which was only documented as affecting "git config", but actually affected all git commands, now only affects "git config". GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, also only documented as affecting "git config" and not different from GIT_CONFIG in a useful way, is removed. ---------------------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * xx/merge-in-c-into-next (Wed Jul 9 13:51:46 2008 -0700) 4 commits + Teach git-merge -X
