Re: Creating a git branch for cond*

   What I want to do early on in cond* development is convert
   lisp/emacs-lisp/macroexp.el from pcase to cond*.  Currently, pcase.el is
   dependent upon macroexp.el and macroexp.el is dependent upon pcase.el.
   This leads to an unlovely artifice in the bootstrapping file, loadup.el,
   and this has caused me grief in another branch I'm working on.

Wouldn't it make more sense to put _those_ changes on a branch when
cond* is on master?  macroexp.el changes would have much more
significant impact on things than just adding cond*.  And when cond*
is modified in a significant matter, it would be easy to rebase the
branch accordingly.

The additional beneift would be that one would have good examples of
where cond* is much clearer than pcase.
