TL;DR: are we OK to merge the pristines feature ('pristines-on-demand-on-mwf' branch) to trunk soon, like early next week?
As said in "A status review" [1] in the long thread "A two-part vision for Subversion and large binary objects.", next steps are reviewing and handling the outstanding issues, and proposing merge to trunk. I think these can be done in parallel as I don't see any that would block a merge to trunk. So here is the proposal to merge to trunk, and then complete the remaining work on trunk. It feels to me like there is general consensus that this feature is taking a form that will be acceptable for a first release of it (while not perfect), and consensus for proceeding to get it into trunk and subsequently including it in the next release. I'm too close to it to make an independent assessment. Can anybody else comment? If no objections, I plan to merge to trunk early next week.
