I did a bit more poking on the web, and it turns out that git-rebase

clean up the changelog, but for now I guess it's no big deal. I
found
out the "correct" way to do this is by using 'git-merge', so as a
practice, I bumped our branch up to the end of the 1.2/1.3 branch.
Most of the changes in there won't even effect us (mostly in the
xfree86 tree), but these are the ones that pertain to us:
Fixed a Xephyr crash when built as a 64bit binary
CVE-2007-1003: XC-MISC Extension ProcXCMiscGetXIDList() Memory
Corruption
Fix for bug #10296: Bug in which extra timers get set/rescheduled - http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10296
Fixed a memory leak in os/connection.c
So those fixes will be in Ben's next release.
Jeremy,
I'd like to do some light hacking on the X11 code base but I'm having
a hard time understanding the development model. Are you pushing
changes to the fd.o repository, or do you send patches to Ben? Can
you provide a clue on how I can stay up to date with your changes
while working on my own? I'd be happy to read some docs online if you
have any suggestions.
Thanks,
