Right now the master branch and the newformat2 branch are the same. The master branch is what I ask Linus to pull from and the newformat2 branch is the dedicated backport of all the critical newformat fixes against 2.6.30.
There's one bug in both branches around the nodatacow and nodatasum modes (both are ignored). I plan on pushing that out today.

Just a quick note, I've pushed out my current queue of fixes to both the master and newformat2 trees. The big thing missing is Josef's work on the free space tracking and async block group caching, but I'll pull that in once it stabilizes.
