Allow the cloning of branches not under StGIT control
[stgit] / TODO
1 The TODO list before 1.0:
2
3 - more regression tests
4 - stg help should probably pipe through the $PAGER
5 - fix StGIT to run correctly in subdirectories
6 - use a separate index for some commands (refresh, fold etc.) so that
7 files already added/removed are not automatically checked in
8 - debian package support
9 - man page
10 - document the workflow on the StGIT wiki
11 - maybe a separate undo command rather than passing a --undo option to
12 push and refresh
13 - use same configuration file as GIT
14 - release 1.0
15
16
17 The future, when time allows or if someone else does them:
18
19 - patch dependency tracking
20 - multiple heads in a patch - useful for forking a patch,
21 synchronising with other patches (diff format or in other
22 repositories)
23 - "pull" argument should default to a sane value, "origin" is wrong in
24 many cases
25 - commit directly to a patch which is not top
26 - patch synchronisation between between branches (as some people,
27 including me have the same patches based on different branches and
28 they have scripts for moving the changes in one to the others)
29 - numeric shortcuts for naming patches near top (eg. +1, -2)
30 - (config?) parameter for number of patches included by "series -s"
31
32 Bugs:
33
34 - patch created with empty description ("stg new" and quit editor
35 without saving) confuse "series -d":
