charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Here are the topics that have been cooking in my tree. Commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next' (being in 'next' is a sign that a topic is stable enough to be used and are candidate to be in a future release). Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'seen', and aren't considered "accepted" at all and may be annotated with an URL to a message that raises issues but they are no means exhaustive. A topic without enough support may be discarded after a long period of no activity (of course they can be resubmit when new interests arise). Copies of the source code to Git live in many repositories, and the following is a list of the ones I push into or their mirrors. Some repositories have only a subset of branches. Git 2.53-rc1 has been tagged. What's slated to 'master' as of this edition of the "What's cooking" report will be merged and would appear in the upcoming release, while everything else will have to wait until the next cycle begins. Until then, please hunt for regressions.
