Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'. The tip of 'next' will be rewound and rebuilt shortly, kicking a couple of topics back to 'pu' and reordering the remainder as needed. As usual, this cycle is expected to last for 8 to 10 weeks. To ensure the quality of the end result, let's merge topics in flight earlier than previous cycles to 'next' and fix issues in-tree. You can find the changes described here in the integration branches of the repositories listed at http://git-blame.blogspot.com/p/git-public-repositories.html -------------------------------------------------- [Graduated to "master"] * cr/push-force-tag-update (2012-12-03) 10 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-04 at af2e3a9) + push: allow already-exists advice to be disabled + push: rename config variable for more general use + push: cleanup push rules comment + push: clarify rejection of update to non-commit-ish + push: require force for annotated tags + push: require force for refs under refs/tags/ + push: flag updates that require force + push: keep track of "update" state separately + push: add advice for rejected tag reference + push: return reject reasons as a bitset Require "-f" for push to update a tag, even if it is a fast-forward. * fc/fast-export-fixes (2012-12-03) 15 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-03 at f9df523) + fast-export: make sure updated refs get updated + fast-export: don't handle uninteresting refs + fast-export: fix comparison in tests + fast-export: trivial cleanup + remote-testgit: implement the "done" feature manually + remote-testgit: report success after an import + remote-testgit: exercise more features + remote-testgit: cleanup tests + remote-testgit: remove irrelevant test + remote-testgit: remove non-local functionality + Add new simplified git-remote-testgit + Rename git-remote-testgit to git-remote-testpy + remote-helpers: fix failure message + remote-testgit: fix direction of marks + fast-export: avoid importing blob marks Various updates to fast-export used in the context of the remote helper interface. * ja/directory-attrs (2012-12-17) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-17 at ced8e73) + Add directory pattern matching to attributes The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the exclude mechanism does. * jc/fetch-ignore-symref (2012-12-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-17 at 370e2c8) + fetch: ignore wildcarded refspecs that update local symbolic refs Avoid false error from an attempt to update local symbolic ref via fetch. * jc/format-color-auto (2012-12-17) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-18 at 5aaac94) + log --format: teach %C(auto,black) to respect color config + t6006: clean up whitespace Introduce "log --format=%C(auto,blue)Foo%C(auto,reset)" that does not color its output when writing to a non-terminal. * jk/complete-commit-c (2012-12-15) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-18 at 75b5f21) + completion: complete refs for "git commit -c" Complete "git commmit -c foo" into a refname that begins with "foo". * jk/error-const-return (2012-12-15) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-22 at bf2b1cd) + silence some -Wuninitialized false positives + make error()'s constant return value more visible Help compilers' flow analysis by making it more explicit that error() always returns -1, to reduce false "variable used uninitialized" warnings. Looks somewhat ugly but not too much. * jk/fsck-dot-in-trees (2012-11-28) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-11-28 at 519dabc) + fsck: warn about ".git" in trees + fsck: warn about '.' and '..' in trees * jk/mailmap-from-blob (2012-12-13) 5 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-17 at 14b7cdc) + mailmap: default mailmap.blob in bare repositories + mailmap: fix some documentation loose-ends for mailmap.blob + mailmap: clean up read_mailmap error handling + mailmap: support reading mailmap from blobs + mailmap: refactor mailmap parsing for non-file sources Allow us to read, and default to read, mailmap files from the tip of the history in bare repositories. This will help running tools like shortlog in server settings. * mh/unify-xml-in-imap-send-and-http-push (2012-12-02) 8 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-03 at d677090) + wrap_in_html(): process message in bulk rather than line-by-line + wrap_in_html(): use strbuf_addstr_xml_quoted() + imap-send: change msg_data from storing (ptr, len) to storing strbuf + imap-send: correctly report errors reading from stdin + imap-send: store all_msgs as a strbuf + lf_to_crlf(): NUL-terminate msg_data::data + xml_entities(): use function strbuf_addstr_xml_quoted() + Add new function strbuf_add_xml_quoted() Update imap-send to reuse xml quoting code from http-push codepath, clean up some code, and fix a small bug. * nd/pathspec-wildcard (2012-11-26) 4 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-03 at eca0fcb) + tree_entry_interesting: do basedir compare on wildcard patterns when possible + pathspec: apply "*.c" optimization from exclude + pathspec: do exact comparison on the leading non-wildcard part + pathspec: save the non-wildcard length part Optimize matching paths with common forms of pathspecs that contain wildcard characters. * wk/submodule-update-remote (2012-12-19) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-22 at 7ddf897) + submodule add: If --branch is given, record it in .gitmodules + submodule update: add --remote for submodule's upstream changes + submodule: add get_submodule_config helper funtion The beginning of 'integrate with the tip of the remote branch, not the commit recorded in the superproject gitlink' support. -------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * jk/pathspec-literal (2013-01-06) 1 commit - t6130-pathspec-noglob: Windows does not allow a file named "f*" Will merge to 'next' and 'master' as a quick "oops" fix. * as/dir-c-cleanup (2012-12-28) 10 commits - dir.c: rename free_excludes() to clear_exclude_list() - dir.c: refactor is_path_excluded() - dir.c: refactor is_excluded() - dir.c: refactor is_excluded_from_list() - dir.c: rename excluded() to is_excluded() - dir.c: rename excluded_from_list() to is_excluded_from_list() - dir.c: rename path_excluded() to is_path_excluded() - dir.c: rename cryptic 'which' variable to more consistent name - Improve documentation and comments regarding directory traversal API - api-directory-listing.txt: update to match code (this branch is used by as/check-ignore.) Separated an earlier and more solidly done bits from the other topic. Will merge to 'next'. * jk/config-uname (2013-01-03) 1 commit - Makefile: hoist uname autodetection to config.mak.uname Move the bits to set fallback default based on the platform from the main Makefile to a separate file, so that it can be included in Makefiles in subdirectories. Will merge to 'next'. * jc/push-2.0-default-to-simple (2013-01-04) 10 commits - push: switch default from "matching" to "simple" - t9401: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t9400: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t7406: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t5531: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t5519: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t5517: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t5516: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t5505: do not assume the "matching" push is the default - t5404: do not assume the "matching" push is the default Will merge to 'next' and cook there until Git 2.0. * jk/maint-fast-import-doc-dedup-done (2013-01-05) 1 commit - git-fast-import(1): remove duplicate "--done" option Will merge to 'next' and 'master' as a quick "oops" fix. The "logical order" reorganization can come after that is done and can cook longer in 'next'. * jk/unify-exit-code-by-receiving-signal (2013-01-06) 1 commit - run-command: encode signal death as a positive integer The internal logic had to deal with two representations of a death of a child process by a signal. Will merge to 'next'. * jl/interrupt-clone-remove-separate-git-dir (2013-01-05) 1 commit - clone: support atomic operation with --separate-git-dir When "git clone --separate-git-dir" is interrupted, we failed to remove the real location we created the repository. Will merge to 'next'. * rs/leave-base-name-in-name-field-of-tar (2013-01-05) 1 commit - archive-tar: split long paths more carefully Improve compatibility with implementations of "tar" that do not like empty name field in header (with the additional prefix field holding everything). Will merge to 'next'. * as/api-allocation-doc (2013-01-06) 1 commit - api-allocation-growing.txt: encourage better variable naming Will merge to 'next'. * jc/comment-cygwin-win32api-in-makefile (2013-01-06) 1 commit - Makefile: add comment on CYGWIN_V15_WIN32API Will merge to 'next'. * jn/xml-depends-on-asciidoc-conf (2013-01-06) 1 commit - docs: manpage XML depends on asciidoc.conf Will merge to 'next'. * nd/clone-no-separate-git-dir-with-bare (2013-01-06) 1 commit - clone: forbid --bare --separate-git-dir Expecting a reroll. $gmane/212863 * nd/parse-pathspec (2013-01-06) 21 commits - Convert more init_pathspec() to parse_pathspec() - Convert add_files_to_cache to take struct pathspec - Convert {read,fill}_directory to take struct pathspec - Convert refresh_index to take struct pathspec - Convert report_path_error to take struct pathspec - checkout: convert read_tree_some to take struct pathspec - Convert unmerge_cache to take struct pathspec - Convert read_cache_preload() to take struct pathspec - add: convert to use parse_pathspec - archive: convert to use parse_pathspec - ls-files: convert to use parse_pathspec - rm: convert to use parse_pathspec - checkout: convert to use parse_pathspec - rerere: convert to use parse_pathspec - status: convert to use parse_pathspec - commit: convert to use parse_pathspec - clean: convert to use parse_pathspec - Export parse_pathspec() and convert some get_pathspec() calls - pathspec: make sure the prefix part is wildcard-clean - Add parse_pathspec() that converts cmdline args to struct pathspec - pathspec: save the non-wildcard length part Uses the parsed pathspec structure in more places where we used to use the raw "array of strings" pathspec. Unfortunately, this conflicts a couple of topics in flight. I tried to be careful while resolving conflicts, though. * rs/zip-tests (2013-01-06) 4 commits - t5003: check if unzip supports symlinks - t5000, t5003: move ZIP tests into their own script - t0024, t5000: use test_lazy_prereq for UNZIP - t0024, t5000: clear variable UNZIP, use GIT_UNZIP instead Updates zip tests to skip some that cannot be handled on platform unzip. I've renamed the t5002 in the original to t5003 to avoid name clashes with another topic in flight. Will merge to 'next'. * rs/zip-with-uncompressed-size-in-the-header (2013-01-06) 1 commit - archive-zip: write uncompressed size into header even with streaming Improve compatibility of our zip output to fill uncompressed size in the header, which we can do without seeking back (even though it should not be necessary). Will merge to 'next'. -------------------------------------------------- [Stalled] * jl/submodule-deinit (2012-12-04) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2012-12-07 at ea772f0) + submodule: add 'deinit' command There was no Porcelain way to say "I no longer am interested in this submodule", once you express your interest in a submodule with "submodule init". "submodule deinit" is the way to do so. But this does not yet do so (does not remove the checkout of the submodule). The design discussion petered out. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/210867/focus=211456 Will kick back to 'pu'. * jk/lua-hackery (2012-10-07) 6 commits - pretty: fix up one-off format_commit_message calls - Minimum compilation fixup - Makefile: make "lua" a bit more configurable - add a "lua" pretty format - add basic lua infrastructure - pretty: make some commit-parsing helpers more public Interesting exercise. When we do this for real, we probably would want to wrap a commit to make it more like an "object" with methods like "parents", etc. * rc/maint-complete-git-p4 (2012-09-24) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2012-10-29 at af52cef) + Teach git-completion about git p4 Comment from Pete will need to be addressed ($gmane/206172). Will kick back to 'pu'. * jc/maint-name-rev (2012-09-17) 7 commits - describe --contains: use "name-rev --algorithm=weight" - name-rev --algorithm=weight: tests and documentation - name-rev --algorithm=weight: cache the computed weight in notes - name-rev --algorithm=weight: trivial optimization - name-rev: --algorithm option - name_rev: clarify the logic to assign a new tip-name to a commit - name-rev: lose unnecessary typedef "git name-rev" names the given revision based on a ref that can be reached in the smallest number of steps from the rev, but that is not useful when the caller wants to know which tag is the oldest one that contains the rev. This teaches a new mode to the command that uses the oldest ref among those which contain the rev. I am not sure if this is worth it; for one thing, even with the help from notes-cache, it seems to make the "describe --contains" even slower. Also the command will be unusably slow for a user who does not have a write access (hence unable to create or update the notes-cache). Stalled mostly due to lack of responses. * jc/xprm-generation (2012-09-14) 1 commit - test-generation: compute generation numbers and clock skews A toy to analyze how bad the clock skews are in histories of real world projects. Stalled mostly due to lack of responses. * jc/blame-no-follow (2012-09-21) 2 commits - blame: pay attention to --no-follow - diff: accept --no-follow option Teaches "--no-follow" option to "git blame" to disable its whole-file rename detection. Stalled mostly due to lack of responses. * jc/add-delete-default (2012-08-13) 1 commit - git add: notice removal of tracked paths by default "git add dir/" updated modified files and added new files, but does not notice removed files, which may be "Huh?" to some users. They can of course use "git add -A dir/", but why should they? Resurrected from graveyard, as I thought it was a worthwhile thing to do in the longer term. Waiting for comments. * mb/remote-default-nn-origin (2012-07-11) 6 commits - Teach get_default_remote to respect remote.default. - Test that plain "git fetch" uses remote.default when on a detached HEAD. - Teach clone to set remote.default. - Teach "git remote" about remote.default. - Teach remote.c about the remote.default configuration setting. - Rename remote.c's default_remote_name static variables. When the user does not specify what remote to interact with, we often attempt to use 'origin'. This can now be customized via a configuration variable. Expecting a reroll. $gmane/210151 "The first remote becomes the default" bit is better done as a separate step. -------------------------------------------------- [Cooking] * jn/less-reconfigure (2013-01-02) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-02 at e5cd6cf) + build: do not automatically reconfigure unless configure.ac changed When autoconf is used, any build on a different commit always ran "config.status --recheck" even when unnecessary. Will merge to 'master'. * ap/merge-stop-at-prepare-commit-msg-failure (2013-01-03) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 251e88b) + merge: Honor prepare-commit-msg return code "git merge" started calling prepare-commit-msg hook like "git commit" does some time ago, but forgot to pay attention to the exit status of the hook. t7505 may want a general clean-up but that is a different topic. Will merge to 'master'. * tb/test-shell-lint (2013-01-02) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 0289566) + test: Add check-non-portable-shell.pl Check for common mistakes in the test scripts, based on simple pattern-matching. * jk/enable-test-lint-by-default (2013-01-03) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 65b21ad) + tests: turn on test-lint by default We had two simple and quick tests to catch common mistakes when writing test scripts, but they weren't run by default when running tests. Will merge to 'master'. * jc/doc-maintainer (2013-01-03) 2 commits - howto/maintain: mark titles for asciidoc - Documentation: update "howto maintain git" Describe tools for automation that were invented since this document was originally written. * fc/remote-testgit-feature-done (2012-10-29) 1 commit - remote-testgit: properly check for errors In the longer term, tightening rules is a good thing to do, and because nobody who has worked in the remote helper area seems to be interested in reviewing this, I would assume they do not think such a retroactive tightening will affect their remote helpers. So let's advance this topic to see what happens. * fc/remote-bzr (2013-01-02) 9 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 7791dcb) + remote-bzr: detect local repositories + remote-bzr: add support for older versions of bzr + remote-bzr: add support to push special modes + remote-bzr: add support for fecthing special modes + remote-bzr: add simple tests + remote-bzr: update working tree upon pushing + remote-bzr: add support for remote repositories + remote-bzr: add support for pushing + Add new remote-bzr transport helper New remote helper for bzr, with minimum fix squashed in. Will merge to 'master'. * mo/cvs-server-updates (2012-12-09) 18 commits - t9402: Use TABs for indentation - t9402: Rename check.cvsCount and check.list - t9402: Simplify git ls-tree - t9402: Add missing &&; Code style - t9402: No space after IO-redirection - t9402: Dont use test_must_fail cvs - t9402: improve check_end_tree() and check_end_full_tree() - t9402: sed -i is not portable - cvsserver Documentation: new cvs ... -r support - cvsserver: add t9402 to test branch and tag refs - cvsserver: support -r and sticky tags for most operations - cvsserver: Add version awareness to argsfromdir - cvsserver: generalize getmeta() to recognize commit refs - cvsserver: implement req_Sticky and related utilities - cvsserver: add misc commit lookup, file meta data, and file listing functions - cvsserver: define a tag name character escape mechanism - cvsserver: cleanup extra slashes in filename arguments - cvsserver: factor out git-log parsing logic As nobody seems to be stepping up to review this, I am tempted to merge this to 'next and see who screams. Will merge to 'next'. * jc/submittingpatches (2013-01-02) 4 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 060ffb0) + SubmittingPatches: give list and maintainer addresses + SubmittingPatches: remove overlong checklist + SubmittingPatches: mention subsystems with dedicated repositories + SubmittingPatches: who am I and who cares? Streamline the document and update with a few e-mail addresses the patches should be sent to. Will merge to 'master'. * kb/maint-bundle-doc (2013-01-01) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 73486d9) + Documentation: full-ness of a bundle is significant for cloning + Documentation: correct example restore from bundle Will merge to 'master'. * nd/maint-branch-desc-doc (2013-01-03) 5 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at d05a47f) + format-patch: pick up branch description when no ref is specified + format-patch: pick up correct branch name from symbolic ref + t4014: a few more tests on cover letter using branch description + branch: delete branch description if it's empty + config.txt: a few lines about branch..description Teach various forms of "format-patch" command line to identify what branch the patches are taken from, so that the branch description is picked up in more cases. Will merge to 'master'. * tb/test-t9020-no-which (2013-01-01) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 0bcf646) + t9020: which is not portable Will merge to 'master'. * tb/test-t9810-no-sed-i (2013-01-01) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 0da03e6) + t9810: Do not use sed -i Will merge to 'master'. * aw/rebase-am-failure-detection (2012-10-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-02 at b9db3a2) + rebase: Handle cases where format-patch fails Save output from format-patch command in a temporary file, just in case it aborts, to give a better failure-case behaviour. * ap/status-ignored-in-ignored-directory (2013-01-06) 3 commits - status: always report ignored tracked directories (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-04 at 114fb2f) + git-status: Test --ignored behavior + dir.c: Make git-status --ignored more consistent Output from "git status --ignored" showed an unexpected interaction with "--untracked". * ta/remove-stale-translated-tut (2012-12-27) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-02 at e70df8e) + Remove Documentation/pt_BR/gittutorial.txt Remove a translation of a document that was left stale. Will merge to 'master'. * er/stop-recommending-parsecvs (2012-12-28) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-02 at fd816dd) + Remove the suggestion to use parsecvs, which is currently broken. Stop recommending a defunct third-party software. Will merge to 'master'. * as/test-name-alias-uniquely (2012-12-28) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-01-02 at e297810) + Use longer alias names in subdirectory tests A few short-and-bland aliases used in the tests were interfering with git-custom command in user's $PATH.

Rerolled. * mp/complete-paths (2012-12-21) 1 commit - git-completion.bash: add support for path completion The completion script used to let the default completer to suggest pathnames, which gave too many irrelevant choices (e.g. "git add" would not want to add an unmodified path).
