Subject: [sup-talk] sup news (including 0.6 release)

Hi all,

Some news:

- I've moved Sup over to Gitorious. I don't know that this will
  magically spur a continuous stream of bugfixes, but at least now we
  have a repo webpage that's not broken.
  
  If you're running from Git, you should update your repo to pull from
  there.

  If you don't have local changes, you can simply reclone it:
    git clone git://gitorious.org/sup/mainline.git

  If you want to preserve your local repository, you can do something like:
    git remote add gitorious git://gitorious.org/sup/mainline.git
    git fetch

  Then for each branch that you want "git pull" to pull from gitorious,
  you'll need to do:
    git config branch.<branch>.remote gitorious
    git config branch.<branch>.merge refs/heads/<branch>

    and then check it out and try pulling. If you haven't made any
    commits, this should be a fast-forward.

  If you want to call the remote "origin" instead of "gitorious", you'll
  just have to remove or rename your origin remote first. The commands
  above will be the same.

  Note that I've reset the "next" branch, so if you have commits on that
  branch, life may be little more complicated. Doing the above and merging
  should work. Or you can isolate your changes somehow and rebase
  --onto, if you feel like being complicated.

- I've merged all outstanding topic branches down to master, and
  cherry-picked a couple commits that somehow ended up in next by
  themselves. So master should be the latest and greatest for the
  moment.

- I've moved the bugs dir directly into master. The bugs branch is now
  deprecated. (It doesn't even exist in the Gitorious repo.)

- I'm planning on release an 0.6 soon with all the bugfixes we have so
  far. To this end, I've unassigned all unclosed issues from the 0.6
  release.

- Can anyone confirm that that the master branch on gitorious works for
  you, just like the next branch did in the old repo? It should, but I
  want to double-check before I ship 0.6.

That's it! Work continues on STS and I hope to have some kind of
functional code to publish soon.

This worked for me except I got an error message and had to install
fastthread first.  Thanks William and all for all your hard work on sup!

Works for me as well after re-creating the next branch (didn't have
anything to keep in it.)
