I queued the following near the bottom of 'pu' (these are also merged to 'next' to keep pu^{/match.next} in sync with next), and plan to cut 2.0.0-rc4 early next week. * git-gui has a show-stopper bug that wants to see if it is used with a version of git that "vsatisfies" 1.7.0; because 2.x is considered significantly different, it incorrectly decides to use the codepath for ancient versions that compares older than 1.7.0 when working inside a submodule working tree. A fix by Jens Lehmann is queued as an emergency patch to use vcompare instead. * There was a vague admission of having broken git-remote-hg/bzr by its author that hinted one topic branch is the culprit, without much detail. As a precautionary measure, the merge of the topic has been reverted. * git-remote-hg/bzr are maintained outside our tree, our copy will become stale and will eventually go away. A warning message to its standard error output has been added to each of them to tell the users where to find the latest of these tools. * git-request-pull has a minor regression and lost a useful DWIM that was designed to be friendly to users of Git older than 1.7.10. "git request-pull $base $URL for-linus" used to say "Please pull tags/for-linus" if that is what the user meant, but the version in 2.0.0-rc3 requires the command line to be "git request-pull $base $URL tags/for-linus". It is simple enough to special case this use case, and a patch is included to fix it with a band-aid. If you fetch tonight's 'pu' branch, you will find all of the above at f608b83. Hopefully 2.0.0-rc4 and 2.0.0-final will be the same tree as that commit, with updated release notes.
