+ - clone: respect user supplied origin name when setting up partial clone
- Future-proof a test against an update to MSYS2 runtime v3.x series.
- cf. <pull.185.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
- It might be helpful in the longer term to encapsulate the code that
- uses /proc/$$/winpid into a helper function and use it anywhere $$
- is referenced, but let's defer it until we see such a callsite that
- would be helped by such a move.
+ When creating a partial clone, the object filtering criteria is

- + parse-options: don't emit "ambiguous option" for aliases
+ Expecting a reroll.
- Attempt to use an abbreviated option in "git clone --recurs" is

+ - http: use --stdin when getting dumb HTTP pack
- To run tests for Git SVN, our scripts for CI used to install the
- git-svn package (in the hope that it would bring in the right
- dependencies). This has been updated to install the more direct
- dependency, namely, libsvn-perl.

- A prerequiste check in the test suite to see if a working jgit is
- available was made more robust.
+ Anybody who wants to champion this topic?
+ I am personally not yet quite convinced if this is worth pursuing.
