Ah, no I didn't. For future reference, how can I find that kind
of thing myself (not "what was not in 0.99.4", but "what did
kernel.org run a week ago")?

I agree. I am waiting for git-deamon to happen on kernel.org,
I am hoping there won't be much problems but am somewhat worried
that customized packing for each client might turn out to be too
much load.

You do realize that up until a week ago (six days, to be exact),
kernel.org was running git-0.99.4, which I don't think actually
implemented any of the info stuff?
So out of the 57 repositories, how many haven't been updated in a week?
I suspect that explains a large portion of it.
Also, I really do think that the dumb transports are oversold, and
git-daemon is undersold. I know all about firewalls, but I also think that
if people used the smart protocols more, that's a problem that would
largely solve itself.
Dumb protocols can never do really well. That's just very fundamental.

You should only need to specify GIT_DIR - it should figure out that the
object directory follows GIT_DIR on its own.
Also, I forget what version of git is installed on kernel.org. The
"alternates" support has been around for a while, and looking at the date
of "/usr/bin/git" it _seems_ recent (Sep 7), but I haven't seen any
announcement of updating since the last one (which was git-0.99.4, which
is too old).
You can try removing all the packs in your .git/objects/packs directory.
Everything _should_ still work fine.
Famous last words.

Things are looking almost ready for a new release. The list at
the end of this message shows what went into the release
candidate branch since 0.99.3: Dan's commit walker updates to
deal with a packed repository, Johannes fixed quite a lot of
problems in the documentation, I did reference-renaming push, a
couple of usability improvements from Linus, gitk updates from
Paul, and Ryan added an bulk e-mailer. With help from Kalle,
Horst and Chris Wright, binary packaging looks in a better shape
now. I'll let this simmer for a couple more days, and plan to
merge them back to the master branch on Wednesday and tag it as
v0.99.4. Some of the patches I will receive before Wednesday
from the list, and some of what I already have in the proposed
update branch, may graduate to the master branch before that
happens.
Earlier, I posted my itchlist. I would of course appreciate if
somebody scratches them, but at the same time would appreciate
people to voice their own itches. My personal 0.99.5 itches are
to enhance fetch to deal with multiple references and have
local-pull to deal with a packed repository. Dan's help would be
greatly appreciated on the latter one.
Oh, another itch I did not list in the previous message. Is
anybody interested in doing an Emacs VC back-end for GIT?
BTW, I used "git log v0.99.3..rc | git shortlog" to prepare the
attached list, but ended up hand-removing many "Merge with blah"
entries. It may not be a bad idea to have an option to filter
out the merge entries at "git log" time. Adding
'--single-parent-only' flag to git-rev-list would be one way of
doing it. Suggestions?

Ok, I am almost ready to push 0.99.4 out. Here is what I have
in the public repository.
- The branches master & pu are as usual. Modulo bugs, I
consider send-pack enhancement finished.
- There is an "rc" branch whose Makefile already says 0.99.4.
I've been working on Debian and RPM packaging issues today,
with help from Chris Wright and H Peter Anvin, in this
branch.
The plan is to stabilize the binary packaging issues in the "rc"
branch, and ordinary feature updates and bugfixes in "master" or
"pu" branch as usual. When things are ready, "rc" and "master"
will be merged, 0.99.4 gets created and tagged, and "master" and
"pu" will continue from there.
I would appreciate if folks familiar with binary packaging,
especially RPM, give final sanity checks on what is currently in
"rc" branch.
