 I *may* be able to help a bit in the coming weeks, given that it's
 reasonably likely I'll be using git-subtree for professional reasons.

 However I'm not clear from the above whether you're suggesting that
 someone should take over ownership from David, or merely help him?

I'll leave that between you and David, and possibly other people who
are interested in advancing git subtree who may volunteer.

 And in either case, what would be your criteria and process for
 accepting patches, given that ultimately you're still in control of
 the repository?

I'd imagine for the first few rounds of patchsets I'll be picky
about styles and design, but once whoever eventually becomes the
volunteer subarea maintainer (perhaps you) demonsrates that s/he has
good enough motivation and taste to keep the codebase clean and user
experience consistent, I'd delegate more and more decision what to
include and reject to that subarea maintainer, just like any
material in the contrib/ area.

 Hi folks,
 
 I apologize for being off the grid for a while.  We had a baby and
 unexpectedly ended up in the NICU.  We just got him home a week ago.
 Everyone is doing fine but I had to pretty much drop all
 non-essential
 work for a month or so.
 

Good to here that everything is well on your side and congratulation for the 
baby,



 Rest assured that I have all of the git-subtree-related mail sitting
 in
 my inbox.  It will take me some time to process it all -- looks ike
 there has been a lot of good work!
 

no worries, there is no emergency here...

Thanks everyone for understanding.
