Subject: Issues that need to be resolved before 1.7.0-rc1
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 2010 10:29:19 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vsk9u2g3k.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <7vfx5u6bn9.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org> (Junio C. Hamano's message of "Sun\, 24 Jan 2010 20\:39\:38 -0800")
Right now 'next' is empty and there are a handful topics in 'pu':
- Jens Lehmann's updates to omit expensive is_submodule_modified() call
when running "diff --ignore-submodules" and to make "diff --submodule"
to show the "dirty worktree" status. I think they should be in 1.7.0
as part of the series to show work tree/index dirtiness in "git diff"
output from the superproject.
- Christian Couder's "reset --keep". I am inclined to exclude it from
1.7.0 as I cannot make a convincing argument to sell this to users
without confusing them (even I am not convinced even though I do fairly
straight line development at day-job), but hopefully we can keep
cooking it in 'pu/next'.
- Johan Herland's notes updates. Won't be ready for 1.7.0 but hopefully
we can keep cooking in 'pu/next'.
- John Hawley's gitweb caching layer. Jakub is splitting them into
smaller pieces and they are still generating discussions.
- My "how about this" patch to make 'grep --author=foo --grep=bar' to
implicitly run --all-match; this is not yet readyand needs reworking.
There also is a discussion on //server/share path on msysgit, that was
started since 288123f (ignore duplicated slashes in make_relative_path(),
2010-01-21). If that commit _breaks_ use case on msysgit that used to
work, I think the sanest course of action is to revert it and ship 1.7.0
with the same breakage we've had forever when the user gives extra slashes
in the paths to --git-dir or --work-tree options. We could instead apply
Thomas's patch
Message-ID: <379d55c6a4110736aadb8ace3b050de879a9deab.1264118830.git.trast@student.ethz.ch>
that changed behaviour in much narrower case, which should be safer. In
any case, a more intrusive change for UNC is outside the scope of 1.7.0
(discussion and preparation can continue on 'pu/next').
I saw a few patches and discussion to git-p4 in contrib from Pal-Kristian
Engstad and I understand that we are waiting for revised version before I
should take any action on them.
The above are the current set of unresolved topics and their status but I
am sure I've missed some others. Please remind me and the list if there
are other important ones that need to be discussed.
