Updates to the previous "remaining issues" list before 1.5.0.

* Bare repository.

I think what I have in 'next' to add 'core.bare' configuration
to make the bare repository detection safer is ready to be used
to port the RFC patch from Shawn to forbid working-tree
operations in a bare repository to prevent accidents from
happening.  It would be nice if we can cook it for a few days in
'next' and push it out to 'master' before v1.5.0-rc1.

Volunteers?


* Packed refs.

'git-pack-refs' should default to --prune.  There is no point
not to, really.  Objections?

We _might_ want to teach 'git-pack-refs' how to unpack, although
there is no real need for it.  I do not care too deeply either
way.


* Detached HEAD.

This is now in 'master' ;-).


* Make -u default to 'git-am'.

Since we are talking about allowing potentially incompatible UI
changes in v1.5.0 iff the change improves the general situation,
I would say why not.  I'd add --no-utf8 just in case, but
personally I do not offhand see need for it.  Projects that want
their commit log messages in legacy encoding can and should say
"i18n.commitencoding = EUCJP" or somesuch and they can continue
using their preferred encodings without changing their tools nor
work habit and without having to worry about re-coding errors.
