Does anybody know how to determine whether a certain git commit, for example this one from this issue, was rolled into a particular Android release such as 2.2 Froyo?

Thanks!

+1  A: 

My one suggestion is to just look at the shortlog of the appropriate branch (that's froyo-release; I'm guessing froyo is a maintenance branch) and see if the commit's in the shortlog. The commit in question is way, way back - on the 143rd page of the shortlog. I found it just by skipping back until the dates were right. Not very fancy.

I'm guessing this is all you can do with gitweb, though it is under pretty active development, so perhaps someday it'll get that "Branches: " feature from gitk. @Jakub Narebski is fairly active on SO; he might be able to provide a more definitive answer. (not sure if @-notification works in answers or just comments)

Wow thank you for your help with this! I learned a few tricks with gitweb. Confirmed that the fix is in Froyo as commit comment `2009-08-25 Jaikumar Ganesh Add local frames for parsing properties and processing...` on page 143: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/froyo-release;pg=143
