  Hello,

  cogito-0.17.1 was just released, the next release on the latest stable
line of the Cogito user-friendly Git user interface. Note that the
stable stuff is now happening on the v0.17 branch, just like we did in
the 0.16 times. In addition to that, however, an auto-built
documentation in the man, txt and html format is available in the

	http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/cogito/cogito-doc.git/

repository. It has the same branch structure as the cogito.git
repository and should also have the same tags if my scripts work
properly. Thanks to Junio for the base version of the script maintaining
this repository.

  So, what's new?

  * Fixed several minor relative path related cg-add and cg-status bugs
  * Fixed cg-add -r not readding cg-rm'd files
  * Fixed support for branch names containing slashes

  * cg-admin-rewritehist - the universal history rewriting tool
  * cg-commit --author
  * cg-commit -p alias for cg-commit --review
  * cg-status -S will show the full contents of the untracked
    directories instead of just the directory name
  * $CG_NORC will make Cogito ignore ~/.cgrc
  * https:// URLs are supported now

  * Several small speed-ups (especially --topo-order in cg-mkpatch)
  * Random documentation updates (most notably cg-ref quick reference)
  * The tutorial script updated
