The changes in the branch are clearly split. I could probably remove the --config-file behavior change pretty easily by producing a reverse patch from the changes that added it. None of this is backportable in my opinion. Probably the best way to review the changes is to read all the changes on the branch, wants to review specific pieces let me know and I'll direct you to the specific changes on the branch you want to look at.
