Re: What's cooking in git.git (topics)

Stalled; Alex has a set of tests that should go on top of this
series but I haven't taken a look at it yet.  I think we should
have enough for interested people to start futzing with, and I
am wondering why nobody has sent a note saying "Hey, I did this
using tree objects with commits in it, it works nicely for these
operations but these things are still cumbersome to do and I
need to polish it more".

I am setting up a super-repo for my own very private use (small home
server setup). Still working on what _recursive_ tools do I really
need (and fsck is not the most interesting one: git-diff-files is. Am
afraid of releasing a system I wont ever be able to get to the source
of).

It is, as predicted, becoming mostly work on build infrastructure and
integrity checks in the super-project. Being the sole user of this
project I'll definitely miss all the issues of really big modularized
projects, though.

* jc/the-index (Sun Apr 1 23:26:07 2007 -0700) 2 commits
 - Make read-cache.c "the_index" free.
 - Move index-related variables into a structure.

A small part of libification; nobody seems to want it.

No user _can_ want it. We need to make the future less a nightmare (it
may not even become one).
