I have those patches queued for merging. I've been out of town and otherwise occupied with critical work issues. I'm hoping to process those this weekend. I don't consider myself a gatekeeper and I won't complain if git-subtree patches are accepted without my review, especially if I am caught up in other things as I am now. Anyone is welcome to prepare, review and recommend patches for acceptance. Junio is the real boss anyway. :) The whole point of Free Software is that anyone can contribute. It won't work any other way. But when patches clearly take us backward, yeah, I'm going to have an issue with that. :) -David
