From a quick survey, it appears there are no more than 55 patches
squashed into the submitted patch.
As I have an interest in git-subtree for maintaining the out-of-tree
version of vcs-svn/ and a desire to improve my rebase-fu, I am tempted
to make some sense of the organic growth that happened on GitHub.
It doesn't appear that anyone else is willing to do this, so I doubt
there will be any duplication of effort.

What is the status of the work on git-subtree described in this thread?
It looks like it's stalled.

I hadn't been aware of that patch. Reading the thread David Michael
Barr was going to try picking the patch apart into sensible chunks.

Sorry for not updating the thread. I did end up moving onto other things.
I quickly realised the reason for globbing all the patches together was
that the individual patches were not well contained.
That is single patches with multiple unrelated changes and multiple
patches changing the same things in different directions.
To me this means that the first step is to curate the history.

If this work is still needing done I'd like to volunteer.

You're most welcome. Sorry again for abandoning the thread.

Okay, I'll start picking the patch apart this week then feedback when
I have a plan to tackle it all.
