Not much -- the one-offs you've sent to git and me to fix various
problems I've complained about, some scripts of mine which have nothing
to do with merging.  The log of the commits diff between next and
git-lt-work doesn't show anything in the merge area -- only things
I've been active in like gitweb, etc.
