When a patch series is in `pu` it can be rebased/replaced/amended
at any time.  That's why I parked it there.  The pu branch rewinds
and is rebuilt on a daily basis.  Any commits not yet merged into
maint, master or next are automatically rebased onto the latest
maint or master branch and get merged into that day's pu.

So don't hold back on posting patches.  Folks expect to see
patches on this list; talking is less productive than posting code.
Showing code that purports to solve a problem, or that at least
displays a problem concretely is worthy of discussion.

And don't worry about replacing what is currently in pu.  Its easily
done by the maintainer.  However don't expect daily updates to a
topic in pu.  Junio (and I) just don't have the bandwidth to keep
replacing patches every day.
