If you're looking at Drupal 7's new database layer for the first time it may seem like a convoluted mess of objects passing around to each other needlessly. Why so complicated?

If, however, you understand the concept of command objects, factories, and dependency injection, and are able to recognize their telltale signs then everything comes into focus. The code itself is just as complex, but because it's a common and often-used type of complexity it is easier to understand.

The process of chopping the list of commits in half is called "bisecting", and you can do it in pretty much any version control system you want. Git, however, offers a neat little tool called simply "bisect" that automates the process.

This module provides two additional Views display plugins, "Profile" and "Node content". These displays do not display on a page but get "attached" to either a user page or nodes of specified types. These views are not stored with the user or node, the way viewreference.module would, so they can be globally-reconfigured.

The node content display can be reordered on the "Manage fields" tab if CCK is enabled. If not, it will have a weight of 10 so it floats to the bottom of the node.
