We've branched 1.6.x: yay! While it's soaking, and tion for the 1.7
release cycle, I'd like to take a look at all the current branches in
our tree, find out what's mergable and what's not, and then take
appropriate action. Here's the list of the outstanding branches in
our tree:
* artem-soc-work/
No work for two years.
* bdb-fixes/
No work for three years.
* capabilities-abstraction/
Branch created by Karl a year ago, only one commit.
* diff-repos-wc/
"micro-branch" created by Neels four months ago.
* ebcdic/
Branch to maintain an EBCDIC port of Subversion. Last action
by Paul Burba 2 year ago.
* explore-wc/
Active branch worked on by Greg and Hyrum. Lots of tests currently
broken, but Greg is selectively merging stuff back to trunk.
Hope to merge the branch back to trunk in the next week or so.
* fs-atomic-renames/
No work for years.
* fs-successor-ids/

I think a number of these are doomed for the bit bucket, but a few
could be merged for 1.7. Thoughts?
