Awesome!  I've seen many similar "make-static" patches come up on the
list, but turned down due to code churn issues.  I'm happy to finally
see it being merged.  What does this mean: should we try to get such
things merged immediately after a release?  On a related note: I'd
also like to know if we can do anything about restructuring the source
tree (moving files around, renaming etc).

Minor nit:  I can see commits with "Author: Junio C Hamano
[off-list ref]", and "Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
[off-list ref]" on both 'pu' and 'next'.  They seem to be different
people at first glance :)

Thanks.
