All you would need to do is create a branch (ref) at the last of the
necessary commits in the asoc tree and Colin could pull that.  This means
that Colin will merge a (hopefully not to large) subset of the asoc tree.
Or he could just merge the asoc tree as it is today.  Either way, the
merge commit should contain an explanation.
