Hi Holger,

Sorry, no. Also it's some historically grown git repo based on my own
git2svn experiments (before you started moving to git) I did after
developing a set of patches with interrelationships became impossible in
SVN. I finally merged it with the new piuparts.git (this was easier than
I expected) and actually it's my first real experience with git.
My patches are maintained with topgit, so there is nothing you would
really want to merge from my repository. The patches I sent are created
with 'tg mail' and should be applyable with 'git am'.
I hope the patch descriptions are sufficient to explain them, otherwise
tell me and I'll elaborate more.
I'm usually not including changelog entries as I expect they could lead
to conflicts quite often. Please add them afterwards separately or with
'git commit --amend' or ...

Is it okay if I send the patches (especially the small and trivial ones)
only to the list without creating a bug in the BTS? There are some more
in my queue (usually larger features) that may need revisiting and some
more discussion, these will get a bug report (unless they have one already).

Andreas

PS: my python knowledge is mostly from hacking piuparts (and writing
buildbot master configuration) :-)
