branch tree-conflicts-notify

Hey guys,

I'm quite glad that we're all moving in the same direction, but by now I'm
thoroughly confused as to what is being done by whom, and what I should be
doing next.

I updated my branch wc but don't see most of the changes you talked about.
Are you committing on trunk? Steve, I see you updated the branch to trunk.
Are you trying to confuse me? ;)

Maybe it would be good if we keep the others updated on what we were doing,
as in post unfinished patches so that we don't do the exact same things in
parallel. Btw, have you guys finished the other stuff you took?

So, I'll take a look at merge notification, then. I'm afraid to change
either of svn_wc_conflicted_p2() or update notification, because I fear you
guys have patches floating for it already.

Am I being cranky? ;)
