Ok, don't flame me, I know this isn't appropriate at the moment with
stabilization for 1.5.4 going on, but I just wanted to post a heads up
on this work to avoid duplicate effort.  It's one big patch at this point
and I haven't even run the test suite yet, but that will change.

Is that why you misspelled Junio's email address? :) 

Hehe, yeah, do not mess with maintainers in release mode :)

Also as a heads-up, I've got a builtin-checkout that I've got passing all 
the tests (plus a few to test stuff I originally hadn't implemented). This 
mostly involved correcting the "interesting" states that unpack_trees() 
can leave the index in memory when it returns and figuring out how the 
merge code works. I can send it off for review and testing to people who 
are interested and don't have other things they should be doing instead.

Thanks, that's useful, I was already considering what to do next.  I
wouldn't mind having a look, but maybe it's better to not discuss new
features on the list at this point.  I appreciate the heads up though.

cheers,
Kristian
