Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed

|

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.
|
||||
I think most of the important stuff is already in 'next'. Let's start
|
||||
talking about closing the merge window for 1.6.0.

Early parts are already merged to 'master' and need to be merged down to

maint as well, as this is about a "performance bug" that has been with us
|

almost forever.

This does not seem to pass tests even on its own.

+ help (Windows): Display HTML in default browser using Windows'
|

shell API

+ help.c: Add support for htmldir relative to git_exec_path()
|
||||
+ Move code interpreting path relative to exec-dir to new function
|

|
||||
|

The earlier parts are obvious; Dscho seemed to have some comments on the

later ones that are in 'pu'.
