Owen,

Branch naming is fine with me. More importantly, I'm curious what is in each.

To clarify my understanding:
1) Is the tip of the branch-0.20-security supposed to be equal the tip of 
branch-0.20-security-203? In other words, both branches should differ only in 
history how they got there, but their content at the end should be identical? 
They are close, but not the quite the same. About 44 files are different 
between the two.

2) Is the branch-0.20-security-202 an earlier attempt to contribute the same as 
branch-0.20-security in a patch-by-patch basis, is superseded by 
branch-0.20-security-203 and (202) can therefore be abandoned? Or is there 
still some use for branch-0.20-security-202 separately from 
branch-0.20-security-203?

Thanks,

Joep

Subject: Massive checkin to hadoop-0.20-security-patches

I'm about to push the broken apart hadoop-0.20-security into
hadoop-0.20-security-patches. It is 863 patches for the main branch. There
are two release branches off of it that have a few patches each. The version
that Arun pushed originally is 0.20.202.X and there is a newer release
branch that is 0.20.203.X. The 202 and 203 branches have a few patches each.
For now, I propose calling the branches:

branch-0.20-security
branch-0.20-security-202
branch-0.20-security-203
