I think checkout from subdirectory with relative was merged on November
18th to master, with d577bc58.  Relative path output for git-status is
part of the "git-commit in C" series, which is planned to go in.

But now you mention it, I realize that I ran "git-topic.perl" (found in
my 'todo' branch) without "--all" option when I made that list, and I
missed stuff fully merged to 'next'.  Sorry.

Here is a corrected list.

Topics not in 'master' yet but should be in v1.5.4
--------------------------------------------------

I think the following should go in, along with what we already have in
'master':

 * git-commit in C (Kristian and others)
 * git-add --patch (Wincent)
 * git-prune --expire (Dscho)
 * git-add --interactive coloring (Dan Zwell)
 * whitespace error classes in diff and patch, using gitattributes (Bruce and me)
 * cvsserver runs post-receive (Michael Witten)
 * git-rebase -i gives chance to rerere (Dscho)
 * git-rebase gives more appropriate help text (Wincent)
 * make refspec matching logic in git-push and git-fetch saner (Steffen Prohaska)
 * work-tree related minor fixes (Nguyen and Dscho)
 * allow update hook to munge commit (Steven Grimm)
 * git-fast-export (Dscho)
 * Add commitdiff to gitweb grep page (Denis Cheng)
 * "git pull --rebase" (Dscho)
 * "git config --get-color" (me)
 * "color.diff = true" means "auto" (me)
 * Rewrite "export VAR=VAL" to "VAR=VAL; export VAR" (Dscho)
 * run correct perl in Documentation (me, waiting for Merlyn)
