Subject: v1.5.4 plans
Date: Sun, 02 Dec 2007 14:04:26 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vk5nwu51x.fsf@gitster.siamese.dyndns.org> (raw)
Please do not take this as the final decision made by the Emperor, whose
subjects now must follow. This is a sanity-check to see if everybody is
on the same page.
I am not the Emperor anyway ;-)
Deprecation and Removal
-----------------------
* We have already removed svnimport without giving a deprecation notice
in the release notes of the previous feature release, which was bad.
Maybe the users will forgive us. Maybe not.
* As discussed on the list, v1.5.4 will ship with the dashed form of
commands (e.g. "git-commit") on users' PATH by default. However we
will move them outside the normal PATH (exact location needs to be
decided by checking FHS first, something like /usr/libexec/git-core)
in v1.5.5 so the release notes to v1.5.4 will declare deprecation
(see the top of Documentation/RelNotes-1.5.4.txt). We might want to
keep copies of dashed form Porcelains in /usr/bin but that discussion
is towards v1.5.5 (post v1.5.4, not now).
* We also will give deprecation warning for the following features and
commands in the release notes to v1.5.4, and remove them in v1.5.5:
- lost-found (use fsck --lost-found);
- post-update hook (use post-receive hook);
- peek-remote (use ls-remote)
Topics not in 'master' yet but should be in v1.5.4
--------------------------------------------------
I think the following should go in, along with what we already have in
'master':
* git-commit in C (Kristian and others)
* git-add --patch (Wincent)
* git-prune --expire (Dscho)
* git-add --interactive coloring (Dan Zwell)
* whitespace error classes in diff and patch, using gitattributes (Bruce and me)
* cvsserver runs post-receive (Michael Witten)
* git-rebase -i gives chance to rerere (Dscho)
* git-rebase gives more appropriate help text (Wincent)
* make refspec matching logic in git-push and git-fetch saner (Steffen Prohaska)
* work-tree related minor fixes (Nguyen and Dscho)
* allow update hook to munge commit (Steven Grimm)
I'd like to explicitly exclude topics about the following, although I
think there might be worthwhile ones among them to think about in the
longer term:
* removing dashed form from the filesystem
* teaching diff family about fileglob pathspecs
* making it possible to omit leading paths from diff family output when
run from a subdirectory
