Git 2.10 Release Notes
======================

Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------

Updates since v2.9
------------------

UI, Workflows & Features

 * "git pull --rebase --verify-signature" learned to warn the user
   that "--verify-signature" is a no-op when rebasing.

 * An upstream project can make a recommendation to shallowly clone
   some submodules in the .gitmodules file it ships.

 * "git worktree add" learned that '-' can be used as a short-hand for
   "@{-1}", the previous branch.

 * Update the funcname definition to support css files.

 * The completion script (in contrib/) learned to complete "git
   status" options.

 * Messages that are generated by auto gc during "git push" on the
   receiving end are now passed back to the sending end in such a way
   that they are shown with "remote: " prefix to avoid confusing the
   users.

 * "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
   experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
   as "git diff" output.

 * "upload-pack" allows a custom "git pack-objects" replacement when
   responding to "fetch/clone" via the uploadpack.packObjectsHook.
   (merge b738396 jk/upload-pack-hook later to maint).

 * Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
   happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
   ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.
   (merge d9925d1 ew/mboxrd-format-am later to maint).

 * "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
   loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
   This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
   (e.g. "gc --auto").
   (merge e26a8c4 jk/repack-keep-unreachable later to maint).

 * "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
   relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
   draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
   also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
   to the right border.

 * A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
   0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
   0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
   embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
   offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.
   (merge 531220b jc/send-email-skip-backup later to maint).

 * "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
   eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
   submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 * The output coloring scheme learned two new attributes, italic and
   strike, in addition to existing bold, reverse, etc.

 * "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
   command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.
   (merge fce04c3 mj/log-show-signature-conf later to maint).

 * More markings of messages for i18n, with updates to various tests
   to pass GETTEXT_POISON tests.

 * "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
   commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR
   format.
   (merge 560b0e8 jk/big-and-future-archive-tar later to maint).


 * A new configuration variable core.sshCommand has been added to
   specify what value for GIT_SSH_COMMAND to use per repository.

 * "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
   "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
   command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remove such
   a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 * A handful of "git svn" updates.

 * "git push" learned to accept and pass extra options to the
   receiving end so that hooks can read and react to them.

 * "git status" learned to suggest "merge --abort" during a conflicted
   merge, just like it already suggests "rebase --abort" during a
   conflicted rebase.

 * "git jump" script (in contrib/) has been updated a bit.
   (merge a91e692 jk/git-jump later to maint).

 * "git push" and "git clone" learned to give better progress meters
   to the end user who is waiting on the terminal.

 * An entry "git log --decorate" for the tip of the current branch is
   shown as "HEAD -> name" (where "name" is the name of the branch);
   the arrow is now painted in the same color as "HEAD", not in the
   color for commits.

 * "git format-patch" learned format.from configuration variable to
   specify the default settings for its "--from" option.

 * "git am -3" calls "git merge-recursive" when it needs to fall back
   to a three-way merge; this call has been turned into an internal
   subroutine call instead of spawning a separate subprocess.

 * The command line completion scripts (in contrib/) now knows about
   "git branch --delete/--move [--remote]".
   (merge 2703c22 vs/completion-branch-fully-spelled-d-m-r later to maint).

 * "git rev-parse --git-path hooks/<hook>" learned to take
   core.hooksPath configuration variable (introduced during 2.9 cycle)
   into account.
   (merge 9445b49 ab/hooks later to maint).

 * "git log --show-signature" and other commands that display the
   verification status of PGP signature now shows the longer key-id,
   as 32-bit key-id is so last century.


Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.

 * "git fast-import" learned the same performance trick to avoid
   creating too small a packfile as "git fetch" and "git push" have,
   using *.unpackLimit configuration.

 * When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
   connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
   for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
   been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.

 * "git upload-pack" command has been updated to use the parse-options
   API.

 * The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; the first
   step to move many state variables into a structure that can be
   explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
   than once has been merged.

 * HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
   trace.
   (merge 73e57aa ep/http-curl-trace later to maint).

 * Instead of taking advantage of the fact that a struct string_list
   that is allocated with all NULs happens to be the INIT_NODUP kind,
   the users of string_list structures are taught to initialize them
   explicitly as such, to document their behaviour better.
   (merge 2721ce2 jk/string-list-static-init later to maint).

 * HTTPd tests learned to show the server error log to help diagnosing
   a failing tests.
   (merge 44f243d nd/test-lib-httpd-show-error-log-in-verbose later to maint).

 * The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
   be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.

 * "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
   bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
   data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.

 * Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature continues.
   (merge 0409e0b nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection later to maint).

 * Formats of the various data (and how to validate them) where we use
   GPG signature have been documented.

 * A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
   sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
   the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
   which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 * The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
   updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
   errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).
   (merge efee955 jk/gpg-interface-cleanup later to maint).

 * Allow t/perf framework to use the features from the most recent
   version of Git even when testing an older installed version.

 * The commands in the "log/diff" family have had an FILE* pointer in the
   data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
   used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
   to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
   codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
   instead.

 * Conversion from unsigned char sha1[20] to struct object_id
   continues.

 * Improve the look of the way "git fetch" reports what happened to
   each ref that was fetched.

 * The .c/.h sources are marked as such in our .gitattributes file so
   that "git diff -W" and friends would work better.

 * Code clean-up to avoid using a variable string that compilers may
   feel untrustable as printf-style format given to write_file()
   helper function.

 * "git p4" used a location outside $GIT_DIR/refs/ to place its
   temporary branches, which has been moved to refs/git-p4-tmp/.

 * Existing autoconf generated test for the need to link with pthread
   library did not check all the functions from pthread libraries;
   recent FreeBSD has some functions in libc but not others, and we
   mistakenly thought linking with libc is enough when it is not.

 * When "git fsck" reports a broken link (e.g. a tree object contains
   a blob that does not exist), both containing object and the object
   that is referred to were reported with their 40-hex object names.
   The command learned the "--name-objects" option to show the path to
   the containing object from existing refs (e.g. "HEAD~24^2:file.txt").

 * Allow http daemon tests in Travis CI tests.

 * Makefile assumed that -lrt is always available on platforms that
   want to use clock_gettime() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, which is not a
   case for recent Mac OS X.  The necessary symbols are often found in
   libc on many modern systems and having -lrt on the command line, as
   long as the library exists, had no effect, but when the platform
   removes librt.a that is a different matter--having -lrt will break
   the linkage.

   This change could be seen as a regression for those who do need to
   specify -lrt, as they now specifically ask for NEEDS_LIBRT when
   building. Hopefully they are in the minority these days.

 * Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
   backend series can land.

 * Error handling in the codepaths that updates refs has been
   improved.

 * The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
   has been revamped.

 * The handling of the "text=auto" attribute has been corrected.
   $ echo "* text=auto eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
   used to have the same effect as
   $ echo "* text eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
   i.e. declaring all files are text (ignoring "auto").  The
   combination has been fixed to be equivalent to doing
   $ git config core.autocrlf true

 * Documentation has been updated to show better example usage
   of the updated "text=auto" attribute.

 * A few tests that specifically target "git rebase -i" have been
   added.

 * Dumb http transport on the client side has been optimized.
   (merge ecba195 ew/http-walker later to maint).

 * Users of the parse_options_concat() API function need to allocate
   extra slots in advance and fill them with OPT_END() when they want
   to decide the set of supported options dynamically, which makes the
   code error-prone and hard to read.  This has been corrected by tweaking
   the API to allocate and return a new copy of "struct option" array.

 * "git fetch" exchanges batched have/ack messages between the sender
   and the receiver, initially doubling every time and then falling
   back to enlarge the window size linearly.  The "smart http"
   transport, being an half-duplex protocol, outgrows the preset limit
   too quickly and becomes inefficient when interacting with a large
   repository.  The internal mechanism learned to grow the window size
   more aggressively when working with the "smart http" transport.

 * Tests for "git svn" have been taught to reuse the lib-httpd test
   infrastructure when testing the subversion integration that
   interacts with subversion repositories served over the http://
   protocol.
   (merge a8a5d25 ew/git-svn-http-tests later to maint).

 * "git pack-objects" has a few options that tell it not to pack
   objects found in certain packfiles, which require it to scan .idx
   files of all available packs.  The codepaths involved in these
   operations have been optimized for a common case of not having any
   non-local pack and/or any .kept pack.

 * The t3700 test about "add --chmod=-x" have been made a bit more
   robust and generally cleaned up.
   (merge 766cdc4 ib/t3700-add-chmod-x-updates later to maint).

 * The build procedure learned PAGER_ENV knob that lists what default
   environment variable settings to export for popular pagers.  This
   mechanism is used to tweak the default settings to MORE on FreeBSD.
   (merge 995bc22 ew/build-time-pager-tweaks later to maint).

 * The http-backend (the server-side component of smart-http
   transport) used to trickle the HTTP header one at a time.  Now
   these write(2)s are batched.
   (merge b36045c ew/http-backend-batch-headers later to maint).

 * When "git rebase" tries to compare set of changes on the updated
   upstream and our own branch, it computes patch-id for all of these
   changes and attempts to find matches. This has been optimized by
   lazily computing the full patch-id (which is expensive) to be
   compared only for changes that touch the same set of paths.
   (merge ba67504 kw/patch-ids-optim later to maint).

 * A handful of tests that were broken under gettext-poison build have
   been fixed.

 * The recent i18n patch we added during this cycle did a bit too much
   refactoring of the messages to avoid word-legos; the repetition has
   been reduced to help translators.


Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.


Fixes since v2.9
----------------

Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.8 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).

 * The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format
   string.  This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
   --no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to
   a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as
   "auto".

 * "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
   option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
   bitmap index.

 * "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited
   by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire
   file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file,
   which has been fixed.

 * The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
   configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
   typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.

 * "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is
   documented now.

 * The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
   referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.

 * "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
   creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
   reflog was truncated.

 * The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
   who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.

 * compat/regex code did not cleanly compile.

 * A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data
   on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so.

 * "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
   hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
   use it regularly.  "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.

 * Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/)

 * "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
   tree".

 * Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
   the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).

 * "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
   cherry-pick A..B" didn't.

 * Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
   that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
   be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
   of the submodules are not prepared for.

 * Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
   to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.

 * Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
   functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
   corrected.

 * The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
   prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
   bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
   +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
   of aborting.

 * One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
   been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
   command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).

 * t/perf needs /usr/bin/time with GNU extension; the invocation of it
   is updated to "gtime" on Darwin.

 * A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
   report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
   been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
   paths that are _inside_.

 * The top level documentation "git help git" still pointed at the
   documentation set hosted at now-defunct google-code repository.
   Update it to point to https://git.github.io/htmldocs/git.html
   instead.

 * A helper function that takes the contents of a commit object and
   finds its subject line did not ignore leading blank lines, as is
   commonly done by other codepaths.  Make it ignore leading blank
   lines to match.

 * For a long time, we carried an in-code comment that said our
   colored output would work only when we use fprintf/fputs on
   Windows, which no longer is the case for the past few years.

 * "gc.autoPackLimit" when set to 1 should not trigger a repacking
   when there is only one pack, but the code counted poorly and did
   so.

 * Add a test to specify the desired behaviour that currently is not
   available in "git rebase -Xsubtree=...".

 * More mark-up updates to typeset strings that are expected to
   literally typed by the end user in fixed-width font.

 * "git commit --amend --allow-empty-message -S" for a commit without
   any message body could have misidentified where the header of the
   commit object ends.

 * "git rebase -i --autostash" did not restore the auto-stashed change
   when the operation was aborted.

 * Git does not know what the contents in the index should be for a
   path added with "git add -N" yet, so "git grep --cached" should not
   show hits (or show lack of hits, with -L) in such a path, but that
   logic does not apply to "git grep", i.e. searching in the working
   tree files.  But we did so by mistake, which has been corrected.

 * "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 * Fix recently introduced codepaths that are involved in parallel
   submodule operations, which gave up on reading too early, and
   could have wasted CPU while attempting to write under a corner
   case condition.

 * "git grep -i" has been taught to fold case in non-ascii locales
   correctly.

 * A test that unconditionally used "mktemp" learned that the command
   is not necessarily available everywhere.

 * There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at
   the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not
   built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git"
   potty does.  It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone
   programs (like test helpers).  A common "main()" function that
   calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to
   make it harder to make mistakes.
   (merge de61ceb jk/common-main later to maint).

 * The test framework learned a new helper test_match_signal to
   check an exit code from getting killed by an expected signal.

 * General code clean-up around a helper function to write a
   single-liner to a file.
   (merge 7eb6e10 jk/write-file later to maint).

 * One part of "git am" had an oddball helper function that called
   stuff from outside "his" as opposed to calling what we have "ours",
   which was not gender-neutral and also inconsistent with the rest of
   the system where outside stuff is usuall called "theirs" in
   contrast to "ours".

 * "git blame file" allowed the lineage of lines in the uncommitted,
   unadded contents of "file" to be inspected, but it refused when
   "file" did not appear in the current commit.  When "file" was
   created by renaming an existing file (but the change has not been
   committed), this restriction was unnecessarily tight.

 * "git add -N dir/file && git write-tree" produced an incorrect tree
   when there are other paths in the same directory that sorts after
   "file".

 * "git fetch http://user:pass@host/repo..." scrubbed the userinfo
   part, but "git push" didn't.

 * "git merge" with renormalization did not work well with
   merge-recursive, due to "safer crlf" conversion kicking in when it
   shouldn't.
   (merge 1335d76 jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf later to maint).

 * The use of strbuf in "git rm" to build filename to remove was a bit
   suboptimal, which has been fixed.

 * An age old bug that caused "git diff --ignore-space-at-eol"
   misbehave has been fixed.

 * "git notes merge" had a code to see if a path exists (and fails if
   it does) and then open the path for writing (when it doesn't).
   Replace it with open with O_EXCL.

 * "git pack-objects" and "git index-pack" mostly operate with off_t
   when talking about the offset of objects in a packfile, but there
   were a handful of places that used "unsigned long" to hold that
   value, leading to an unintended truncation.

 * Recent update to "git daemon" tries to enable the socket-level
   KEEPALIVE, but when it is spawned via inetd, the standard input
   file descriptor may not necessarily be connected to a socket.
   Suppress an ENOTSOCK error from setsockopt().

 * Recent FreeBSD stopped making perl available at /usr/bin/perl;
   switch the default the built-in path to /usr/local/bin/perl on not
   too ancient FreeBSD releases.

 * "git commit --help" said "--no-verify" is only about skipping the
   pre-commit hook, and failed to say that it also skipped the
   commit-msg hook.

 * "git merge" in Git v2.9 was taught to forbid merging an unrelated
   lines of history by default, but that is exactly the kind of thing
   the "--rejoin" mode of "git subtree" (in contrib/) wants to do.
   "git subtree" has been taught to use the "--allow-unrelated-histories"
   option to override the default.

 * The build procedure for "git persistent-https" helper (in contrib/)
   has been updated so that it can be built with more recent versions
   of Go.

 * There is an optimization used in "git diff $treeA $treeB" to borrow
   an already checked-out copy in the working tree when it is known to
   be the same as the blob being compared, expecting that open/mmap of
   such a file is faster than reading it from the object store, which
   involves inflating and applying delta.  This however kicked in even
   when the checked-out copy needs to go through the convert-to-git
   conversion (including the clean filter), which defeats the whole
   point of the optimization.  The optimization has been disabled when
   the conversion is necessary.

 * "git -c grep.patternType=extended log --basic-regexp" misbehaved
   because the internal API to access the grep machinery was not
   designed well.

 * Windows port was failing some tests in t4130, due to the lack of
   inum in the returned values by its lstat(2) emulation.

 * The reflog output format is documented better, and a new format
   --date=unix to report the seconds-since-epoch (without timezone)
   has been added.
   (merge 442f6fd jk/reflog-date later to maint).

 * "git difftool <paths>..." started in a subdirectory failed to
   interpret the paths relative to that directory, which has been
   fixed.

 * The characters in the label shown for tags/refs for commits in
   "gitweb" output are now properly escaped for proper HTML output.

 * FreeBSD can lie when asked mtime of a directory, which made the
   untracked cache code to fall back to a slow-path, which in turn
   caused tests in t7063 to fail because it wanted to verify the
   behaviour of the fast-path.

 * Squelch compiler warnings for nedmalloc (in compat/) library.

 * A small memory leak in the command line parsing of "git blame"
   has been plugged.

 * The API documentation for hashmap was unclear if hashmap_entry
   can be safely discarded without any other consideration.  State
   that it is safe to do so.

 * Not-so-recent rewrite of "git am" that started making internal
   calls into the commit machinery had an unintended regression, in
   that no matter how many seconds it took to apply many patches, the
   resulting committer timestamp for the resulting commits were all
   the same.

 * "git push --force-with-lease" already had enough logic to allow
   ensuring that such a push results in creation of a ref (i.e. the
   receiving end did not have another push from sideways that would be
   discarded by our force-pushing), but didn't expose this possibility
   to the users.  It does so now.
   (merge 9eed4f3 jk/push-force-with-lease-creation later to maint).

 * The mechanism to limit the pack window memory size, when packing is
   done using multiple threads (which is the default), is per-thread,
   but this was not documented clearly.
   (merge 954176c ms/document-pack-window-memory-is-per-thread later to maint).

 * "import-tars" fast-import script (in contrib/) used to ignore a
   hardlink target and replaced it with an empty file, which has been
   corrected to record the same blob as the other file the hardlink is
   shared with.
   (merge 04e0869 js/import-tars-hardlinks later to maint).

 * "git mv dir non-existing-dir/" did not work in some environments
   the same way as existing mainstream platforms.  The code now moves
   "dir" to "non-existing-dir", without relying on rename("A", "B/")
   that strips the trailing slash of '/'.
   (merge 189d035 js/mv-dir-to-new-directory later to maint).

 * The "t/" hierarchy is prone to get an unusual pathname; "make test"
   has been taught to make sure they do not contain paths that cannot
   be checked out on Windows (and the mechanism can be reusable to
   catch pathnames that are not portable to other platforms as need
   arises).
   (merge c2cafd3 js/test-lint-pathname later to maint).

 * When "git merge-recursive" works on history with many criss-cross
   merges in "verbose" mode, the names the command assigns to the
   virtual merge bases could have overwritten each other by unintended
   reuse of the same piece of memory.
   (merge 5447a76 rs/pull-signed-tag later to maint).

 * "git checkout --detach <branch>" used to give the same advice
   message as that is issued when "git checkout <tag>" (or anything
   that is not a branch name) is given, but asking with "--detach" is
   an explicit enough sign that the user knows what is going on.  The
   advice message has been squelched in this case.
   (merge 779b88a sb/checkout-explit-detach-no-advice later to maint).

 * "git difftool" by default ignores the error exit from the backend
   commands it spawns, because often they signal that they found
   differences by exiting with a non-zero status code just like "diff"
   does; the exit status codes 126 and above however are special in
   that they are used to signal that the command is not executable,
   does not exist, or killed by a signal.  "git difftool" has been
   taught to notice these exit status codes.
   (merge 45a4f5d jk/difftool-command-not-found later to maint).

 * On Windows, help.browser configuration variable used to be ignored,
   which has been corrected.
   (merge 6db5967 js/no-html-bypass-on-windows later to maint).

 * The "git -c var[=val] cmd" facility to append a configuration
   variable definition at the end of the search order was described in
   git(1) manual page, but not in git-config(1), which was more likely
   place for people to look for when they ask "can I make a one-shot
   override, and if so how?"
   (merge ae1f709 dg/document-git-c-in-git-config-doc later to maint).

 * The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open
   a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then
   finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either
   removing or renaming the temporary file.  When the process spawns a
   subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the
   subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is
   made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has
   the file descriptor still open.  Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag
   to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT).
   (merge 05d1ed6 bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile later to maint).

 * Correct an age-old calco (is that a typo-like word for calc)
   in the documentation.
   (merge 7841c48 ls/packet-line-protocol-doc-fix later to maint).

 * Other minor clean-ups and documentation updates
   (merge 02a8cfa rs/merge-add-strategies-simplification later to maint).
   (merge af4941d rs/merge-recursive-string-list-init later to maint).
   (merge 1eb47f1 rs/use-strbuf-add-unique-abbrev later to maint).

Git 2.10 Release Notes (draft)
==============================

Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------

Updates since v2.9
------------------

UI, Workflows & Features

 * "git pull --rebase --verify-signature" learned to warn the user
   that "--verify-signature" is a no-op when rebasing.

 * An upstream project can make a recommendation to shallowly clone
   some submodules in the .gitmodules file it ships.

 * "git worktree add" learned that '-' can be used as a short-hand for
   "@{-1}", the previous branch.

 * Update the funcname definition to support css files.

 * The completion script (in contrib/) learned to complete "git
   status" options.

 * Messages that are generated by auto gc during "git push" on the
   receiving end are now passed back to the sending end in such a way
   that they are shown with "remote: " prefix to avoid confusing the
   users.

 * "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
   experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
   as "git diff" output.

 * "upload-pack" allows a custom "git pack-objects" replacement when
   responding to "fetch/clone" via the uploadpack.packObjectsHook.
   (merge b738396 jk/upload-pack-hook later to maint).

 * Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
   happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
   ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.
   (merge d9925d1 ew/mboxrd-format-am later to maint).

 * "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
   loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
   This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
   (e.g. "gc --auto").
   (merge e26a8c4 jk/repack-keep-unreachable later to maint).

 * "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
   relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
   draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
   also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
   to the right border.

 * A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
   0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
   0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
   embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
   offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.
   (merge 531220b jc/send-email-skip-backup later to maint).

 * "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
   eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
   submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 * The output coloring scheme learned two new attributes, italic and
   strike, in addition to existing bold, reverse, etc.

 * "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
   command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.
   (merge fce04c3 mj/log-show-signature-conf later to maint).

 * More markings of messages for i18n, with updates to various tests
   to pass GETTEXT_POISON tests.

 * "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
   commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR
   format.
   (merge 5caeeb8 jk/big-and-future-archive-tar later to maint).

 * A new configuration variable core.sshCommand has been added to
   specify what value for GIT_SSH_COMMAND to use per repository.

 * "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
   "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
   command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remove such
   a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 * A handful of "git svn" updates.

 * "git push" learned to accept and pass extra options to the
   receiving end so that hooks can read and react to them.

 * "git status" learned to suggest "merge --abort" during a conflicted
   merge, just like it already suggests "rebase --abort" during a
   conflicted rebase.

 * "git jump" script (in contrib/) has been updated a bit.
   (merge a91e692 jk/git-jump later to maint).

 * "git push" and "git clone" learned to give better progress meters
   to the end user who is waiting on the terminal.

 * An entry "git log --decorate" for the tip of the current branch is
   shown as "HEAD -> name" (where "name" is the name of the branch);
   the arrow is now painted in the same color as "HEAD", not in the
   color for commits.

 * "git format-patch" learned format.from configuration variable to
   specify the default settings for its "--from" option.

 * "git am -3" calls "git merge-recursive" when it needs to fall back
   to a three-way merge; this call has been turned into an internal
   subroutine call instead of spawning a separate subprocess.

 * The command line completion scripts (in contrib/) now knows about
   "git branch --delete/--move [--remote]".
   (merge 2703c22 vs/completion-branch-fully-spelled-d-m-r later to maint).

 * "git rev-parse --git-path hooks/<hook>" learned to take
   core.hooksPath configuration variable (introduced during 2.9 cycle)
   into account.
   (merge 9445b49 ab/hooks later to maint).

 * "git log --show-signature" and other commands that display the
   verification status of PGP signature now shows the longer key-id,
   as 32-bit key-id is so last century.


Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.

 * "git fast-import" learned the same performance trick to avoid
   creating too small a packfile as "git fetch" and "git push" have,
   using *.unpackLimit configuration.

 * When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
   connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
   for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
   been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.

 * "git upload-pack" command has been updated to use the parse-options
   API.

 * The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; the first
   step to move many state variables into a structure that can be
   explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
   than once has been merged.

 * HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
   trace.
   (merge 73e57aa ep/http-curl-trace later to maint).

 * Instead of taking advantage of the fact that a struct string_list
   that is allocated with all NULs happens to be the INIT_NODUP kind,
   the users of string_list structures are taught to initialize them
   explicitly as such, to document their behaviour better.
   (merge 2721ce2 jk/string-list-static-init later to maint).

 * HTTPd tests learned to show the server error log to help diagnosing
   a failing tests.
   (merge 44f243d nd/test-lib-httpd-show-error-log-in-verbose later to maint).

 * The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
   be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.

 * "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
   bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
   data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.

 * Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature continues.
   (merge 0409e0b nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection later to maint).

 * Formats of the various data (and how to validate them) where we use
   GPG signature have been documented.

 * A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
   sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
   the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
   which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 * The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
   updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
   errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).
   (merge efee955 jk/gpg-interface-cleanup later to maint).

 * Allow t/perf framework to use the features from the most recent
   version of Git even when testing an older installed version.

 * The commands in the "log/diff" family have had an FILE* pointer in the
   data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
   used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
   to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
   codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
   instead.

 * Conversion from unsigned char sha1[20] to struct object_id
   continues.

 * Improve the look of the way "git fetch" reports what happened to
   each ref that was fetched.

 * The .c/.h sources are marked as such in our .gitattributes file so
   that "git diff -W" and friends would work better.

 * Code clean-up to avoid using a variable string that compilers may
   feel untrustable as printf-style format given to write_file()
   helper function.

 * "git p4" used a location outside $GIT_DIR/refs/ to place its
   temporary branches, which has been moved to refs/git-p4-tmp/.

 * Existing autoconf generated test for the need to link with pthread
   library did not check all the functions from pthread libraries;
   recent FreeBSD has some functions in libc but not others, and we
   mistakenly thought linking with libc is enough when it is not.

 * When "git fsck" reports a broken link (e.g. a tree object contains
   a blob that does not exist), both containing object and the object
   that is referred to were reported with their 40-hex object names.
   The command learned the "--name-objects" option to show the path to
   the containing object from existing refs (e.g. "HEAD~24^2:file.txt").

 * Allow http daemon tests in Travis CI tests.

 * Makefile assumed that -lrt is always available on platforms that
   want to use clock_gettime() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, which is not a
   case for recent Mac OS X.  The necessary symbols are often found in
   libc on many modern systems and having -lrt on the command line, as
   long as the library exists, had no effect, but when the platform
   removes librt.a that is a different matter--having -lrt will break
   the linkage.

   This change could be seen as a regression for those who do need to
   specify -lrt, as they now specifically ask for NEEDS_LIBRT when
   building. Hopefully they are in the minority these days.

 * Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
   backend series can land.

 * Error handling in the codepaths that updates refs has been
   improved.

 * The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
   has been revamped.

 * The handling of the "text=auto" attribute has been corrected.
   $ echo "* text=auto eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
   used to have the same effect as
   $ echo "* text eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
   i.e. declaring all files are text (ignoring "auto").  The
   combination has been fixed to be equivalent to doing
   $ git config core.autocrlf true

 * Documentation has been updated to show better example usage
   of the updated "text=auto" attribute.

 * A few tests that specifically target "git rebase -i" have been
   added.

 * Dumb http transport on the client side has been optimized.
   (merge ecba195 ew/http-walker later to maint).

 * Users of the parse_options_concat() API function need to allocate
   extra slots in advance and fill them with OPT_END() when they want
   to decide the set of supported options dynamically, which makes the
   code error-prone and hard to read.  This has been corrected by tweaking
   the API to allocate and return a new copy of "struct option" array.

 * "git fetch" exchanges batched have/ack messages between the sender
   and the receiver, initially doubling every time and then falling
   back to enlarge the window size linearly.  The "smart http"
   transport, being an half-duplex protocol, outgrows the preset limit
   too quickly and becomes inefficient when interacting with a large
   repository.  The internal mechanism learned to grow the window size
   more aggressively when working with the "smart http" transport.

 * Tests for "git svn" have been taught to reuse the lib-httpd test
   infrastructure when testing the subversion integration that
   interacts with subversion repositories served over the http://
   protocol.
   (merge a8a5d25 ew/git-svn-http-tests later to maint).

 * "git pack-objects" has a few options that tell it not to pack
   objects found in certain packfiles, which require it to scan .idx
   files of all available packs.  The codepaths involved in these
   operations have been optimized for a common case of not having any
   non-local pack and/or any .kept pack.

 * The t3700 test about "add --chmod=-x" have been made a bit more
   robust and generally cleaned up.
   (merge 766cdc4 ib/t3700-add-chmod-x-updates later to maint).

 * The build procedure learned PAGER_ENV knob that lists what default
   environment variable settings to export for popular pagers.  This
   mechanism is used to tweak the default settings to MORE on FreeBSD.
   (merge 995bc22 ew/build-time-pager-tweaks later to maint).

 * The http-backend (the server-side component of smart-http
   transport) used to trickle the HTTP header one at a time.  Now
   these write(2)s are batched.
   (merge b36045c ew/http-backend-batch-headers later to maint).

 * When "git rebase" tries to compare set of changes on the updated
   upstream and our own branch, it computes patch-id for all of these
   changes and attempts to find matches. This has been optimized by
   lazily computing the full patch-id (which is expensive) to be
   compared only for changes that touch the same set of paths.
   (merge b3dfeeb kw/patch-ids-optim later to maint).

 * A handful of tests that were broken under gettext-poison build have
   been fixed.

 * The recent i18n patch we added during this cycle did a bit too much
   refactoring of the messages to avoid word-legos; the repetition has
   been reduced to help translators.


Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.


Fixes since v2.9
----------------

Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.8 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).

 * The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format
   string.  This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
   --no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to
   a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as
   "auto".

 * "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
   option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
   bitmap index.

 * "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited
   by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire
   file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file,
   which has been fixed.

 * The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
   configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
   typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.

 * "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is
   documented now.

 * The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
   referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.

 * "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
   creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
   reflog was truncated.

 * The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
   who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.

 * compat/regex code did not cleanly compile.

 * A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data
   on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so.

 * "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
   hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
   use it regularly.  "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.

 * Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/)

 * "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
   tree".

 * Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
   the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).

 * "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
   cherry-pick A..B" didn't.

 * Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
   that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
   be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
   of the submodules are not prepared for.

 * Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
   to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.

 * Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
   functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
   corrected.

 * The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
   prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
   bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
   +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
   of aborting.

 * One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
   been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
   command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).

 * t/perf needs /usr/bin/time with GNU extension; the invocation of it
   is updated to "gtime" on Darwin.

 * A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
   report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
   been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
   paths that are _inside_.

 * The top level documentation "git help git" still pointed at the
   documentation set hosted at now-defunct google-code repository.
   Update it to point to https://git.github.io/htmldocs/git.html
   instead.

 * A helper function that takes the contents of a commit object and
   finds its subject line did not ignore leading blank lines, as is
   commonly done by other codepaths.  Make it ignore leading blank
   lines to match.

 * For a long time, we carried an in-code comment that said our
   colored output would work only when we use fprintf/fputs on
   Windows, which no longer is the case for the past few years.

 * "gc.autoPackLimit" when set to 1 should not trigger a repacking
   when there is only one pack, but the code counted poorly and did
   so.

 * Add a test to specify the desired behaviour that currently is not
   available in "git rebase -Xsubtree=...".

 * More mark-up updates to typeset strings that are expected to
   literally typed by the end user in fixed-width font.

 * "git commit --amend --allow-empty-message -S" for a commit without
   any message body could have misidentified where the header of the
   commit object ends.

 * "git rebase -i --autostash" did not restore the auto-stashed change
   when the operation was aborted.

 * Git does not know what the contents in the index should be for a
   path added with "git add -N" yet, so "git grep --cached" should not
   show hits (or show lack of hits, with -L) in such a path, but that
   logic does not apply to "git grep", i.e. searching in the working
   tree files.  But we did so by mistake, which has been corrected.

 * "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 * Fix recently introduced codepaths that are involved in parallel
   submodule operations, which gave up on reading too early, and
   could have wasted CPU while attempting to write under a corner
   case condition.

 * "git grep -i" has been taught to fold case in non-ascii locales
   correctly.

 * A test that unconditionally used "mktemp" learned that the command
   is not necessarily available everywhere.

 * There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at
   the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not
   built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git"
   potty does.  It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone
   programs (like test helpers).  A common "main()" function that
   calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to
   make it harder to make mistakes.
   (merge de61ceb jk/common-main later to maint).

 * The test framework learned a new helper test_match_signal to
   check an exit code from getting killed by an expected signal.

 * General code clean-up around a helper function to write a
   single-liner to a file.
   (merge 7eb6e10 jk/write-file later to maint).

 * One part of "git am" had an oddball helper function that called
   stuff from outside "his" as opposed to calling what we have "ours",
   which was not gender-neutral and also inconsistent with the rest of
   the system where outside stuff is usuall called "theirs" in
   contrast to "ours".

 * "git blame file" allowed the lineage of lines in the uncommitted,
   unadded contents of "file" to be inspected, but it refused when
   "file" did not appear in the current commit.  When "file" was
   created by renaming an existing file (but the change has not been
   committed), this restriction was unnecessarily tight.

 * "git add -N dir/file && git write-tree" produced an incorrect tree
   when there are other paths in the same directory that sorts after
   "file".

 * "git fetch http://user:pass@host/repo..." scrubbed the userinfo
   part, but "git push" didn't.

 * "git merge" with renormalization did not work well with
   merge-recursive, due to "safer crlf" conversion kicking in when it
   shouldn't.
   (merge 1335d76 jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf later to maint).

 * The use of strbuf in "git rm" to build filename to remove was a bit
   suboptimal, which has been fixed.

 * An age old bug that caused "git diff --ignore-space-at-eol"
   misbehave has been fixed.

 * "git notes merge" had a code to see if a path exists (and fails if
   it does) and then open the path for writing (when it doesn't).
   Replace it with open with O_EXCL.

 * "git pack-objects" and "git index-pack" mostly operate with off_t
   when talking about the offset of objects in a packfile, but there
   were a handful of places that used "unsigned long" to hold that
   value, leading to an unintended truncation.

 * Recent update to "git daemon" tries to enable the socket-level
   KEEPALIVE, but when it is spawned via inetd, the standard input
   file descriptor may not necessarily be connected to a socket.
   Suppress an ENOTSOCK error from setsockopt().

 * Recent FreeBSD stopped making perl available at /usr/bin/perl;
   switch the default the built-in path to /usr/local/bin/perl on not
   too ancient FreeBSD releases.

 * "git commit --help" said "--no-verify" is only about skipping the
   pre-commit hook, and failed to say that it also skipped the
   commit-msg hook.

 * "git merge" in Git v2.9 was taught to forbid merging an unrelated
   lines of history by default, but that is exactly the kind of thing
   the "--rejoin" mode of "git subtree" (in contrib/) wants to do.
   "git subtree" has been taught to use the "--allow-unrelated-histories"
   option to override the default.

 * The build procedure for "git persistent-https" helper (in contrib/)
   has been updated so that it can be built with more recent versions
   of Go.

 * There is an optimization used in "git diff $treeA $treeB" to borrow
   an already checked-out copy in the working tree when it is known to
   be the same as the blob being compared, expecting that open/mmap of
   such a file is faster than reading it from the object store, which
   involves inflating and applying delta.  This however kicked in even
   when the checked-out copy needs to go through the convert-to-git
   conversion (including the clean filter), which defeats the whole
   point of the optimization.  The optimization has been disabled when
   the conversion is necessary.

 * "git -c grep.patternType=extended log --basic-regexp" misbehaved
   because the internal API to access the grep machinery was not
   designed well.

 * Windows port was failing some tests in t4130, due to the lack of
   inum in the returned values by its lstat(2) emulation.

 * The reflog output format is documented better, and a new format
   --date=unix to report the seconds-since-epoch (without timezone)
   has been added.
   (merge 442f6fd jk/reflog-date later to maint).

 * "git difftool <paths>..." started in a subdirectory failed to
   interpret the paths relative to that directory, which has been
   fixed.

 * The characters in the label shown for tags/refs for commits in
   "gitweb" output are now properly escaped for proper HTML output.

 * FreeBSD can lie when asked mtime of a directory, which made the
   untracked cache code to fall back to a slow-path, which in turn
   caused tests in t7063 to fail because it wanted to verify the
   behaviour of the fast-path.

 * Squelch compiler warnings for nedmalloc (in compat/) library.

 * A small memory leak in the command line parsing of "git blame"
   has been plugged.

 * The API documentation for hashmap was unclear if hashmap_entry
   can be safely discarded without any other consideration.  State
   that it is safe to do so.

 * Not-so-recent rewrite of "git am" that started making internal
   calls into the commit machinery had an unintended regression, in
   that no matter how many seconds it took to apply many patches, the
   resulting committer timestamp for the resulting commits were all
   the same.

 * "git push --force-with-lease" already had enough logic to allow
   ensuring that such a push results in creation of a ref (i.e. the
   receiving end did not have another push from sideways that would be
   discarded by our force-pushing), but didn't expose this possibility
   to the users.  It does so now.
   (merge 9eed4f3 jk/push-force-with-lease-creation later to maint).

 * The mechanism to limit the pack window memory size, when packing is
   done using multiple threads (which is the default), is per-thread,
   but this was not documented clearly.
   (merge 954176c ms/document-pack-window-memory-is-per-thread later to maint).

 * "import-tars" fast-import script (in contrib/) used to ignore a
   hardlink target and replaced it with an empty file, which has been
   corrected to record the same blob as the other file the hardlink is
   shared with.
   (merge 04e0869 js/import-tars-hardlinks later to maint).

 * "git mv dir non-existing-dir/" did not work in some environments
   the same way as existing mainstream platforms.  The code now moves
   "dir" to "non-existing-dir", without relying on rename("A", "B/")
   that strips the trailing slash of '/'.
   (merge 189d035 js/mv-dir-to-new-directory later to maint).

 * The "t/" hierarchy is prone to get an unusual pathname; "make test"
   has been taught to make sure they do not contain paths that cannot
   be checked out on Windows (and the mechanism can be reusable to
   catch pathnames that are not portable to other platforms as need
   arises).
   (merge c2cafd3 js/test-lint-pathname later to maint).

 * When "git merge-recursive" works on history with many criss-cross
   merges in "verbose" mode, the names the command assigns to the
   virtual merge bases could have overwritten each other by unintended
   reuse of the same piece of memory.
   (merge 5447a76 rs/pull-signed-tag later to maint).

 * "git checkout --detach <branch>" used to give the same advice
   message as that is issued when "git checkout <tag>" (or anything
   that is not a branch name) is given, but asking with "--detach" is
   an explicit enough sign that the user knows what is going on.  The
   advice message has been squelched in this case.
   (merge 779b88a sb/checkout-explit-detach-no-advice later to maint).

 * "git difftool" by default ignores the error exit from the backend
   commands it spawns, because often they signal that they found
   differences by exiting with a non-zero status code just like "diff"
   does; the exit status codes 126 and above however are special in
   that they are used to signal that the command is not executable,
   does not exist, or killed by a signal.  "git difftool" has been
   taught to notice these exit status codes.
   (merge 45a4f5d jk/difftool-command-not-found later to maint).

 * On Windows, help.browser configuration variable used to be ignored,
   which has been corrected.
   (merge 6db5967 js/no-html-bypass-on-windows later to maint).

 * The "git -c var[=val] cmd" facility to append a configuration
   variable definition at the end of the search order was described in
   git(1) manual page, but not in git-config(1), which was more likely
   place for people to look for when they ask "can I make a one-shot
   override, and if so how?"
   (merge ae1f709 dg/document-git-c-in-git-config-doc later to maint).

 * The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open
   a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then
   finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either
   removing or renaming the temporary file.  When the process spawns a
   subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the
   subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is
   made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has
   the file descriptor still open.  Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag
   to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT).
   (merge 05d1ed6 bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile later to maint).

 * Other minor clean-ups and documentation updates
   (merge 02a8cfa rs/merge-add-strategies-simplification later to maint).
   (merge af4941d rs/merge-recursive-string-list-init later to maint).
   (merge 1eb47f1 rs/use-strbuf-add-unique-abbrev later to maint).
   (merge ddd0bfa jk/tighten-alloc later to maint).
   (merge ecf30b2 rs/mailinfo-lib later to maint).

* [ANNOUNCE] Git v2.10.0-rc1
@ 2016-08-19 23:10  3% Junio C Hamano
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 22+ results
From: Junio C Hamano @ 2016-08-19 23:10 UTC (permalink / raw
  To: git; +Cc: Linux Kernel
A release candidate Git v2.10.0-rc1 is now available for testing
at the usual places.  It is comprised of 611 non-merge commits
since v2.9.0, contributed by 68 people, 20 of which are new faces.

Relative to v2.10-0-rc0 (the preview), there is a last-minute merge
of Linus's "Let's show longer fingerprint in the GPG output" patch
(which was a bit scary but I made sure push-certificate codepath
would not be negatively affected), among other small topics.

The tarballs are found at:

    https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/testing/

The following public repositories all have a copy of the
'v2.10.0-rc1' tag and the 'master' branch that the tag points at:

  url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
  url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git
  url = git://git.sourceforge.jp/gitroot/git-core/git.git
  url = git://git-core.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/git-core/git-core
  url = https://github.com/gitster/git

New contributors whose contributions weren't in v2.9.0 are as follows.

Git 2.10 Release Notes (draft)
==============================

Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------

Updates since v2.9
------------------

UI, Workflows & Features

 * "git pull --rebase --verify-signature" learned to warn the user
   that "--verify-signature" is a no-op when rebasing.

 * An upstream project can make a recommendation to shallowly clone
   some submodules in the .gitmodules file it ships.

 * "git worktree add" learned that '-' can be used as a short-hand for
   "@{-1}", the previous branch.

 * Update the funcname definition to support css files.

 * The completion script (in contrib/) learned to complete "git
   status" options.

 * Messages that are generated by auto gc during "git push" on the
   receiving end are now passed back to the sending end in such a way
   that they are shown with "remote: " prefix to avoid confusing the
   users.

 * "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
   experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
   as "git diff" output.

 * "upload-pack" allows a custom "git pack-objects" replacement when
   responding to "fetch/clone" via the uploadpack.packObjectsHook.
   (merge b738396 jk/upload-pack-hook later to maint).

 * Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
   happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
   ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.
   (merge d9925d1 ew/mboxrd-format-am later to maint).

 * "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
   loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
   This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
   (e.g. "gc --auto").
   (merge e26a8c4 jk/repack-keep-unreachable later to maint).

 * "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
   relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
   draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
   also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
   to the right border.

 * A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
   0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
   0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
   embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
   offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.
   (merge 531220b jc/send-email-skip-backup later to maint).

 * "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
   eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
   submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 * The output coloring scheme learned two new attributes, italic and
   strike, in addition to existing bold, reverse, etc.

 * "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
   command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.
   (merge fce04c3 mj/log-show-signature-conf later to maint).

 * More markings of messages for i18n, with updates to various tests
   to pass GETTEXT_POISON tests.

 * "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
   commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR
   format.
   (merge 5caeeb8 jk/big-and-future-archive-tar later to maint).

 * A new configuration variable core.sshCommand has been added to
   specify what value for GIT_SSH_COMMAND to use per repository.

 * "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
   "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
   command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remove such
   a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 * A handful of "git svn" updates.

 * "git push" learned to accept and pass extra options to the
   receiving end so that hooks can read and react to them.

 * "git status" learned to suggest "merge --abort" during a conflicted
   merge, just like it already suggests "rebase --abort" during a
   conflicted rebase.

 * "git jump" script (in contrib/) has been updated a bit.
   (merge a91e692 jk/git-jump later to maint).

 * "git push" and "git clone" learned to give better progress meters
   to the end user who is waiting on the terminal.

 * An entry "git log --decorate" for the tip of the current branch is
   shown as "HEAD -> name" (where "name" is the name of the branch);
   the arrow is now painted in the same color as "HEAD", not in the
   color for commits.

 * "git format-patch" learned format.from configuration variable to
   specify the default settings for its "--from" option.

 * "git am -3" calls "git merge-recursive" when it needs to fall back
   to a three-way merge; this call has been turned into an internal
   subroutine call instead of spawning a separate subprocess.

 * The command line completion scripts (in contrib/) now knows about
   "git branch --delete/--move [--remote]".
   (merge 2703c22 vs/completion-branch-fully-spelled-d-m-r later to maint).

 * "git rev-parse --git-path hooks/<hook>" learned to take
   core.hooksPath configuration variable (introduced during 2.9 cycle)
   into account.
   (merge 9445b49 ab/hooks later to maint).

 * "git log --show-signature" and other commands that display the
   verification status of PGP signature now shows the longer key-id,
   as 32-bit key-id is so last century.


Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.

 * "git fast-import" learned the same performance trick to avoid
   creating too small a packfile as "git fetch" and "git push" have,
   using *.unpackLimit configuration.

 * When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
   connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
   for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
   been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.

 * "git upload-pack" command has been updated to use the parse-options
   API.

 * The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; the first
   step to move many state variables into a structure that can be
   explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
   than once has been merged.

 * HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
   trace.
   (merge 73e57aa ep/http-curl-trace later to maint).

 * Instead of taking advantage of the fact that a struct string_list
   that is allocated with all NULs happens to be the INIT_NODUP kind,
   the users of string_list structures are taught to initialize them
   explicitly as such, to document their behaviour better.
   (merge 2721ce2 jk/string-list-static-init later to maint).

 * HTTPd tests learned to show the server error log to help diagnosing
   a failing tests.
   (merge 44f243d nd/test-lib-httpd-show-error-log-in-verbose later to maint).

 * The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
   be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.

 * "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
   bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
   data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.

 * Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature continues.
   (merge 0409e0b nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection later to maint).

 * Formats of the various data (and how to validate them) where we use
   GPG signature have been documented.

 * A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
   sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
   the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
   which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

   The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
   updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
   errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).
   (merge efee955 jk/gpg-interface-cleanup later to maint).

 * Allow t/perf framework to use the features from the most recent
   version of Git even when testing an older installed version.

 * The commands in the "log/diff" family have had an FILE* pointer in the
   data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
   used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
   to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
   codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
   instead.

 * Conversion from unsigned char sha1[20] to struct object_id
   continues.

 * Improve the look of the way "git fetch" reports what happened to
   each ref that was fetched.

 * The .c/.h sources are marked as such in our .gitattributes file so
   that "git diff -W" and friends would work better.

 * Code clean-up to avoid using a variable string that compilers may
   feel untrustable as printf-style format given to write_file()
   helper function.

 * "git p4" used a location outside $GIT_DIR/refs/ to place its
   temporary branches, which has been moved to refs/git-p4-tmp/.

 * Existing autoconf generated test for the need to link with pthread
   library did not check all the functions from pthread libraries;
   recent FreeBSD has some functions in libc but not others, and we
   mistakenly thought linking with libc is enough when it is not.

 * When "git fsck" reports a broken link (e.g. a tree object contains
   a blob that does not exist), both containing object and the object
   that is referred to were reported with their 40-hex object names.
   The command learned the "--name-objects" option to show the path to
   the containing object from existing refs (e.g. "HEAD~24^2:file.txt").

 * Allow http daemon tests in Travis CI tests.

 * Makefile assumed that -lrt is always available on platforms that
   want to use clock_gettime() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, which is not a
   case for recent Mac OS X.  The necessary symbols are often found in
   libc on many modern systems and having -lrt on the command line, as
   long as the library exists, had no effect, but when the platform
   removes librt.a that is a different matter--having -lrt will break
   the linkage.

   This change could be seen as a regression for those who do need to
   specify -lrt, as they now specifically ask for NEEDS_LIBRT when
   building. Hopefully they are in the minority these days.

 * Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
   backend series can land.

 * Error handling in the codepaths that updates refs has been
   improved.

 * The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
   has been revamped.

 * The handling of the "text=auto" attribute has been corrected.
   $ echo "* text=auto eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
   used to have the same effect as
   $ echo "* text eol=crlf" >.gitattributes
   i.e. declaring all files are text (ignoring "auto").  The
   combination has been fixed to be equivalent to doing
   $ git config core.autocrlf true

 * A few tests that specifically target "git rebase -i" have been
   added.

 * Dumb http transport on the client side has been optimized.
   (merge ecba195 ew/http-walker later to maint).

 * Users of the parse_options_concat() API function need to allocate
   extra slots in advance and fill them with OPT_END() when they want
   to decide the set of supported options dynamically, which makes the
   code error-prone and hard to read.  This has been corrected by tweaking
   the API to allocate and return a new copy of "struct option" array.

 * "git fetch" exchanges batched have/ack messages between the sender
   and the receiver, initially doubling every time and then falling
   back to enlarge the window size linearly.  The "smart http"
   transport, being an half-duplex protocol, outgrows the preset limit
   too quickly and becomes inefficient when interacting with a large
   repository.  The internal mechanism learned to grow the window size
   more aggressively when working with the "smart http" transport.

 * Tests for "git svn" have been taught to reuse the lib-httpd test
   infrastructure when testing the subversion integration that
   interacts with subversion repositories served over the http://
   protocol.
   (merge a8a5d25 ew/git-svn-http-tests later to maint).

 * "git pack-objects" has a few options that tell it not to pack
   objects found in certain packfiles, which require it to scan .idx
   files of all available packs.  The codepaths involved in these
   operations have been optimized for a common case of not having any
   non-local pack and/or any .kept pack.

 * The t3700 test about "add --chmod=-x" have been made a bit more
   robust and generally cleaned up.
   (merge 766cdc4 ib/t3700-add-chmod-x-updates later to maint).

 * The build procedure learned PAGER_ENV knob that lists what default
   environment variable settings to export for popular pagers.  This
   mechanism is used to tweak the default settings to MORE on FreeBSD.
   (merge 995bc22 ew/build-time-pager-tweaks later to maint).

 * The http-backend (the server-side component of smart-http
   transport) used to trickle the HTTP header one at a time.  Now
   these write(2)s are batched.
   (merge b36045c ew/http-backend-batch-headers later to maint).

 * When "git rebase" tries to compare set of changes on the updated
   upstream and our own branch, it computes patch-id for all of these
   changes and attempts to find matches. This has been optimized by
   lazily computing the full patch-id (which is expensive) to be
   compared only for changes that touch the same set of paths.
   (merge b3dfeeb kw/patch-ids-optim later to maint).

 * A handful of tests that were broken under gettext-poison build have
   been fixed.


Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.


Fixes since v2.9
----------------

Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.8 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).

 * The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format
   string.  This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
   --no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to
   a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as
   "auto".

 * "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
   option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
   bitmap index.

 * "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited
   by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire
   file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file,
   which has been fixed.

 * The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
   configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
   typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.

 * "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is
   documented now.

 * The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
   referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.

 * "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
   creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
   reflog was truncated.

 * The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
   who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.

 * compat/regex code did not cleanly compile.

 * A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data
   on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so.

 * "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
   hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
   use it regularly.  "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.

 * Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/)

 * "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
   tree".

 * Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
   the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).

 * "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
   cherry-pick A..B" didn't.

 * Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
   that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
   be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
   of the submodules are not prepared for.

 * Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
   to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.

 * Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
   functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
   corrected.

 * The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
   prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
   bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
   +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
   of aborting.

 * One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
   been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
   command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).

 * t/perf needs /usr/bin/time with GNU extension; the invocation of it
   is updated to "gtime" on Darwin.

 * A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
   report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
   been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
   paths that are _inside_.

 * The top level documentation "git help git" still pointed at the
   documentation set hosted at now-defunct google-code repository.
   Update it to point to https://git.github.io/htmldocs/git.html
   instead.

 * A helper function that takes the contents of a commit object and
   finds its subject line did not ignore leading blank lines, as is
   commonly done by other codepaths.  Make it ignore leading blank
   lines to match.

 * For a long time, we carried an in-code comment that said our
   colored output would work only when we use fprintf/fputs on
   Windows, which no longer is the case for the past few years.

 * "gc.autoPackLimit" when set to 1 should not trigger a repacking
   when there is only one pack, but the code counted poorly and did
   so.

 * Add a test to specify the desired behaviour that currently is not
   available in "git rebase -Xsubtree=...".

 * More mark-up updates to typeset strings that are expected to
   literally typed by the end user in fixed-width font.

 * "git commit --amend --allow-empty-message -S" for a commit without
   any message body could have misidentified where the header of the
   commit object ends.

 * "git rebase -i --autostash" did not restore the auto-stashed change
   when the operation was aborted.

 * Git does not know what the contents in the index should be for a
   path added with "git add -N" yet, so "git grep --cached" should not
   show hits (or show lack of hits, with -L) in such a path, but that
   logic does not apply to "git grep", i.e. searching in the working
   tree files.  But we did so by mistake, which has been corrected.

 * "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 * Fix recently introduced codepaths that are involved in parallel
   submodule operations, which gave up on reading too early, and
   could have wasted CPU while attempting to write under a corner
   case condition.

 * "git grep -i" has been taught to fold case in non-ascii locales
   correctly.

 * A test that unconditionally used "mktemp" learned that the command
   is not necessarily available everywhere.

 * There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at
   the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not
   built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git"
   potty does.  It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone
   programs (like test helpers).  A common "main()" function that
   calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to
   make it harder to make mistakes.
   (merge de61ceb jk/common-main later to maint).

 * The test framework learned a new helper test_match_signal to
   check an exit code from getting killed by an expected signal.

 * General code clean-up around a helper function to write a
   single-liner to a file.
   (merge 7eb6e10 jk/write-file later to maint).

 * One part of "git am" had an oddball helper function that called
   stuff from outside "his" as opposed to calling what we have "ours",
   which was not gender-neutral and also inconsistent with the rest of
   the system where outside stuff is usuall called "theirs" in
   contrast to "ours".

 * "git blame file" allowed the lineage of lines in the uncommitted,
   unadded contents of "file" to be inspected, but it refused when
   "file" did not appear in the current commit.  When "file" was
   created by renaming an existing file (but the change has not been
   committed), this restriction was unnecessarily tight.

 * "git add -N dir/file && git write-tree" produced an incorrect tree
   when there are other paths in the same directory that sorts after
   "file".

 * "git fetch http://user:pass@host/repo..." scrubbed the userinfo
   part, but "git push" didn't.

 * "git merge" with renormalization did not work well with
   merge-recursive, due to "safer crlf" conversion kicking in when it
   shouldn't.
   (merge 1335d76 jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf later to maint).

 * The use of strbuf in "git rm" to build filename to remove was a bit
   suboptimal, which has been fixed.

 * An age old bug that caused "git diff --ignore-space-at-eol"
   misbehave has been fixed.

 * "git notes merge" had a code to see if a path exists (and fails if
   it does) and then open the path for writing (when it doesn't).
   Replace it with open with O_EXCL.

 * "git pack-objects" and "git index-pack" mostly operate with off_t
   when talking about the offset of objects in a packfile, but there
   were a handful of places that used "unsigned long" to hold that
   value, leading to an unintended truncation.

 * Recent update to "git daemon" tries to enable the socket-level
   KEEPALIVE, but when it is spawned via inetd, the standard input
   file descriptor may not necessarily be connected to a socket.
   Suppress an ENOTSOCK error from setsockopt().

 * Recent FreeBSD stopped making perl available at /usr/bin/perl;
   switch the default the built-in path to /usr/local/bin/perl on not
   too ancient FreeBSD releases.

 * "git commit --help" said "--no-verify" is only about skipping the
   pre-commit hook, and failed to say that it also skipped the
   commit-msg hook.

 * "git merge" in Git v2.9 was taught to forbid merging an unrelated
   lines of history by default, but that is exactly the kind of thing
   the "--rejoin" mode of "git subtree" (in contrib/) wants to do.
   "git subtree" has been taught to use the "--allow-unrelated-histories"
   option to override the default.

 * The build procedure for "git persistent-https" helper (in contrib/)
   has been updated so that it can be built with more recent versions
   of Go.

 * There is an optimization used in "git diff $treeA $treeB" to borrow
   an already checked-out copy in the working tree when it is known to
   be the same as the blob being compared, expecting that open/mmap of
   such a file is faster than reading it from the object store, which
   involves inflating and applying delta.  This however kicked in even
   when the checked-out copy needs to go through the convert-to-git
   conversion (including the clean filter), which defeats the whole
   point of the optimization.  The optimization has been disabled when
   the conversion is necessary.

 * "git -c grep.patternType=extended log --basic-regexp" misbehaved
   because the internal API to access the grep machinery was not
   designed well.

 * Windows port was failing some tests in t4130, due to the lack of
   inum in the returned values by its lstat(2) emulation.

 * The reflog output format is documented better, and a new format
   --date=unix to report the seconds-since-epoch (without timezone)
   has been added.
   (merge 442f6fd jk/reflog-date later to maint).

 * "git difftool <paths>..." started in a subdirectory failed to
   interpret the paths relative to that directory, which has been
   fixed.

 * The characters in the label shown for tags/refs for commits in
   "gitweb" output are now properly escaped for proper HTML output.

 * FreeBSD can lie when asked mtime of a directory, which made the
   untracked cache code to fall back to a slow-path, which in turn
   caused tests in t7063 to fail because it wanted to verify the
   behaviour of the fast-path.

 * Squelch compiler warnings for netmalloc (in compat/) library.

 * A small memory leak in the command line parsing of "git blame"
   has been plugged.

 * The API documentation for hashmap was unclear if hashmap_entry
   can be safely discarded without any other consideration.  State
   that it is safe to do so.

 * Not-so-recent rewrite of "git am" that started making internal
   calls into the commit machinery had an unintended regression, in
   that no matter how many seconds it took to apply many patches, the
   resulting committer timestamp for the resulting commits were all
   the same.

 * "git push --force-with-lease" already had enough logic to allow
   ensuring that such a push results in creation of a ref (i.e. the
   receiving end did not have another push from sideways that would be
   discarded by our force-pushing), but didn't expose this possibility
   to the users.  It does so now.
   (merge 9eed4f3 jk/push-force-with-lease-creation later to maint).

 * The mechanism to limit the pack window memory size, when packing is
   done using multiple threads (which is the default), is per-thread,
   but this was not documented clearly.
   (merge 954176c ms/document-pack-window-memory-is-per-thread later to maint).

 * "import-tars" fast-import script (in contrib/) used to ignore a
   hardlink target and replaced it with an empty file, which has been
   corrected to record the same blob as the other file the hardlink is
   shared with.
   (merge 04e0869 js/import-tars-hardlinks later to maint).

 * "git mv dir non-existing-dir/" did not work in some environments
   the same way as existing mainstream platforms.  The code now moves
   "dir" to "non-existing-dir", without relying on rename("A", "B/")
   that strips the trailing slash of '/'.
   (merge 189d035 js/mv-dir-to-new-directory later to maint).

 * The "t/" hierarchy is prone to get an unusual pathname; "make test"
   has been taught to make sure they do not contain paths that cannot
   be checked out on Windows (and the mechanism can be reusable to
   catch pathnames that are not portable to other platforms as need
   arises).
   (merge c2cafd3 js/test-lint-pathname later to maint).

 * When "git merge-recursive" works on history with many criss-cross
   merges in "verbose" mode, the names the command assigns to the
   virtual merge bases could have overwritten each other by unintended
   reuse of the same piece of memory.
   (merge 5447a76 rs/pull-signed-tag later to maint).

 * "git checkout --detach <branch>" used to give the same advice
   message as that is issued when "git checkout <tag>" (or anything
   that is not a branch name) is given, but asking with "--detach" is
   an explicit enough sign that the user knows what is going on.  The
   advice message has been squelched in this case.
   (merge 779b88a sb/checkout-explit-detach-no-advice later to maint).

 * "git difftool" by default ignores the error exit from the backend
   commands it spawns, because often they signal that they found
   differences by exiting with a non-zero status code just like "diff"
   does; the exit status codes 126 and above however are special in
   that they are used to signal that the command is not executable,
   does not exist, or killed by a signal.  "git difftool" has been
   taught to notice these exit status codes.
   (merge 45a4f5d jk/difftool-command-not-found later to maint).

 * Other minor clean-ups and documentation updates
   (merge 02a8cfa rs/merge-add-strategies-simplification later to maint).
   (merge af4941d rs/merge-recursive-string-list-init later to maint).
   (merge 1eb47f1 rs/use-strbuf-add-unique-abbrev later to maint).
   (merge ddd0bfa jk/tighten-alloc later to maint).
   (merge ecf30b2 rs/mailinfo-lib later to maint).
   (merge 0eb75ce sg/reflog-past-root later to maint).

Git 2.10 Release Notes (draft)
==============================

Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------

Updates since v2.9
------------------

UI, Workflows & Features

 * "git pull --rebase --verify-signature" learned to warn the user
   that "--verify-signature" is a no-op when rebasing.

 * An upstream project can make a recommendation to shallowly clone
   some submodules in the .gitmodules file it ships.

 * "git worktree add" learned that '-' can be used as a short-hand for
   "@{-1}", the previous branch.

 * Update the funcname definition to support css files.

 * The completion script (in contrib/) learned to complete "git
   status" options.

 * Messages that are generated by auto gc during "git push" on the
   receiving end are now passed back to the sending end in such a way
   that they are shown with "remote: " prefix to avoid confusing the
   users.

 * "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
   experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
   as "git diff" output.

 * "upload-pack" allows a custom "git pack-objects" replacement when
   responding to "fetch/clone" via the uploadpack.packObjectsHook.
   (merge b738396 jk/upload-pack-hook later to maint).

 * Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
   happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
   ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.
   (merge d9925d1 ew/mboxrd-format-am later to maint).

 * "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
   loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
   This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
   (e.g. "gc --auto").
   (merge e26a8c4 jk/repack-keep-unreachable later to maint).

 * "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
   relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
   draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
   also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
   to the right border.

 * A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
   0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
   0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
   embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
   offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.
   (merge 531220b jc/send-email-skip-backup later to maint).

 * "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
   eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
   submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 * The output coloring scheme learned two new attributes, italic and
   strike, in addition to existing bold, reverse, etc.

 * "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
   command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.
   (merge fce04c3 mj/log-show-signature-conf later to maint).

 * More markings of messages for i18n, with updates to various tests
   to pass GETTEXT_POISON tests.

 * "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
   commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR
   format.
   (merge 5caeeb8 jk/big-and-future-archive-tar later to maint).

 * A new configuration variable core.sshCommand has been added to
   specify what value for GIT_SSH_COMMAND to use per repository.

 * "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
   "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
   command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remove such
   a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 * A handful of "git svn" updates.

 * "git push" learned to accept and pass extra options to the
   receiving end so that hooks can read and react to them.

 * "git status" learned to suggest "merge --abort" during a conflicted
   merge, just like it already suggests "rebase --abort" during a
   conflicted rebase.

 * "git jump" script (in contrib/) has been updated a bit.
   (merge a91e692 jk/git-jump later to maint).

 * "git push" and "git clone" learned to give better progress meters
   to the end user who is waiting on the terminal.

 * An entry "git log --decorate" for the tip of the current branch is
   shown as "HEAD -> name" (where "name" is the name of the branch);
   the arrow is now painted in the same color as "HEAD", not in the
   color for commits.

 * "git format-patch" learned format.from configuration variable to
   specify the default settings for its "--from" option.

 * "git am -3" calls "git merge-recursive" when it needs to fall back
   to a three-way merge; this call has been turned into an internal
   subroutine call instead of spawning a separate subprocess.

 * The command line completion scripts (in contrib/) now knows about
   "git branch --delete/--move [--remote]".
   (merge 2703c22 vs/completion-branch-fully-spelled-d-m-r later to maint).


Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.

 * "git fast-import" learned the same performance trick to avoid
   creating too small a packfile as "git fetch" and "git push" have,
   using *.unpackLimit configuration.

 * When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
   connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
   for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
   been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.

 * "git upload-pack" command has been updated to use the parse-options
   API.

 * The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; the first
   step to move many state variables into a structure that can be
   explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
   than once has been merged.

 * HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
   trace.
   (merge 73e57aa ep/http-curl-trace later to maint).

 * Instead of taking advantage of the fact that a struct string_list
   that is allocated with all NULs happens to be the INIT_NODUP kind,
   the users of string_list structures are taught to initialize them
   explicitly as such, to document their behaviour better.
   (merge 2721ce2 jk/string-list-static-init later to maint).

 * HTTPd tests learned to show the server error log to help diagnosing
   a failing tests.
   (merge 44f243d nd/test-lib-httpd-show-error-log-in-verbose later to maint).

 * The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
   be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.

 * "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
   bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
   data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.

 * Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature continues.
   (merge 0409e0b nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection later to maint).

 * Formats of the various data (and how to validate them) where we use
   GPG signature have been documented.

 * A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
   sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
   the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
   which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

   The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
   updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
   errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).
   (merge efee955 jk/gpg-interface-cleanup later to maint).

 * Allow t/perf framework to use the features from the most recent
   version of Git even when testing an older installed version.

 * The commands in the "log/diff" family have had an FILE* pointer in the
   data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
   used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
   to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
   codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
   instead.

 * Conversion from unsigned char sha1[20] to struct object_id
   continues.

 * Improve the look of the way "git fetch" reports what happened to
   each ref that was fetched.

 * The .c/.h sources are marked as such in our .gitattributes file so
   that "git diff -W" and friends would work better.

 * Code clean-up to avoid using a variable string that compilers may
   feel untrustable as printf-style format given to write_file()
   helper function.

 * "git p4" used a location outside $GIT_DIR/refs/ to place its
   temporary branches, which has been moved to refs/git-p4-tmp/.

 * Existing autoconf generated test for the need to link with pthread
   library did not check all the functions from pthread libraries;
   recent FreeBSD has some functions in libc but not others, and we
   mistakenly thought linking with libc is enough when it is not.

 * When "git fsck" reports a broken link (e.g. a tree object contains
   a blob that does not exist), both containing object and the object
   that is referred to were reported with their 40-hex object names.
   The command learned the "--name-objects" option to show the path to
   the containing object from existing refs (e.g. "HEAD~24^2:file.txt").

 * Allow http daemon tests in Travis CI tests.

 * Makefile assumed that -lrt is always available on platforms that
   want to use clock_gettime() and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, which is not a
   case for recent Mac OS X.  The necessary symbols are often found in
   libc on many modern systems and having -lrt on the command line, as
   long as the library exists, had no effect, but when the platform
   removes librt.a that is a different matter--having -lrt will break
   the linkage.

   This change could be seen as a regression for those who do need to
   specify -lrt, as they now specifically ask for NEEDS_LIBRT when
   building. Hopefully they are in the minority these days.

 * Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
   backend series can land.

 * Error handling in the codepaths that updates refs has been
   improved.

 * The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
   has been revamped.

 * A few tests that specifically target "git rebase -i" have been
   added.

 * Dumb http transport on the client side has been optimized.
   (merge ecba195 ew/http-walker later to maint).

 * Users of the parse_options_concat() API function need to allocate
   extra slots in advance and fill them with OPT_END() when they want
   to decide the set of supported options dynamically, which makes the
   code error-prone and hard to read.  This has been corrected by tweaking
   the API to allocate and return a new copy of "struct option" array.

 * "git fetch" exchanges batched have/ack messages between the sender
   and the receiver, initially doubling every time and then falling
   back to enlarge the window size linearly.  The "smart http"
   transport, being an half-duplex protocol, outgrows the preset limit
   too quickly and becomes inefficient when interacting with a large
   repository.  The internal mechanism learned to grow the window size
   more aggressively when working with the "smart http" transport.

 * Tests for "git svn" have been taught to reuse the lib-httpd test
   infrastructure when testing the subversion integration that
   interacts with subversion repositories served over the http://
   protocol.
   (merge a8a5d25 ew/git-svn-http-tests later to maint).

 * "git pack-objects" has a few options that tell it not to pack
   objects found in certain packfiles, which require it to scan .idx
   files of all available packs.  The codepaths involved in these
   operations have been optimized for a common case of not having any
   non-local pack and/or any .kept pack.

 * The t3700 test about "add --chmod=-x" have been made a bit more
   robust and generally cleaned up.
   (merge 766cdc4 ib/t3700-add-chmod-x-updates later to maint).

 * The build procedure learned PAGER_ENV knob that lists what default
   environment variable settings to export for popular pagers.  This
   mechanism is used to tweak the default settings to MORE on FreeBSD.
   (merge 995bc22 ew/build-time-pager-tweaks later to maint).

 * The http-backend (the server-side component of smart-http
   transport) used to trickle the HTTP header one at a time.  Now
   these write(2)s are batched.
   (merge b36045c ew/http-backend-batch-headers later to maint).

 * When "git rebase" tries to compare set of changes on the updated
   upstream and our own branch, it computes patch-id for all of these
   changes and attempts to find matches. This has been optimized by
   lazily computing the full patch-id (which is expensive) to be
   compared only for changes that touch the same set of paths.
   (merge b3dfeeb kw/patch-ids-optim later to maint).


Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.


Fixes since v2.9
----------------

Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.8 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).

 * The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format
   string.  This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
   --no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to
   a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as
   "auto".

 * "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
   option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
   bitmap index.

 * "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited
   by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire
   file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file,
   which has been fixed.

 * The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
   configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
   typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.

 * "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is
   documented now.

 * The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
   referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.

 * "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
   creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
   reflog was truncated.

 * The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
   who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.

 * compat/regex code did not cleanly compile.

 * A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data
   on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so.

 * "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
   hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
   use it regularly.  "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.

 * Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/)

 * "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
   tree".

 * Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
   the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).

 * "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
   cherry-pick A..B" didn't.

 * Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
   that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
   be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
   of the submodules are not prepared for.

 * Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
   to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.

 * Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
   functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
   corrected.

 * The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
   prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
   bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
   +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
   of aborting.

 * One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
   been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
   command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).

 * t/perf needs /usr/bin/time with GNU extension; the invocation of it
   is updated to "gtime" on Darwin.

 * A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
   report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
   been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
   paths that are _inside_.

 * The top level documentation "git help git" still pointed at the
   documentation set hosted at now-defunct google-code repository.
   Update it to point to https://git.github.io/htmldocs/git.html
   instead.

 * A helper function that takes the contents of a commit object and
   finds its subject line did not ignore leading blank lines, as is
   commonly done by other codepaths.  Make it ignore leading blank
   lines to match.

 * For a long time, we carried an in-code comment that said our
   colored output would work only when we use fprintf/fputs on
   Windows, which no longer is the case for the past few years.

 * "gc.autoPackLimit" when set to 1 should not trigger a repacking
   when there is only one pack, but the code counted poorly and did
   so.

 * Add a test to specify the desired behaviour that currently is not
   available in "git rebase -Xsubtree=...".

 * More mark-up updates to typeset strings that are expected to
   literally typed by the end user in fixed-width font.

 * "git commit --amend --allow-empty-message -S" for a commit without
   any message body could have misidentified where the header of the
   commit object ends.

 * "git rebase -i --autostash" did not restore the auto-stashed change
   when the operation was aborted.

 * Git does not know what the contents in the index should be for a
   path added with "git add -N" yet, so "git grep --cached" should not
   show hits (or show lack of hits, with -L) in such a path, but that
   logic does not apply to "git grep", i.e. searching in the working
   tree files.  But we did so by mistake, which has been corrected.

 * "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 * Fix recently introduced codepaths that are involved in parallel
   submodule operations, which gave up on reading too early, and
   could have wasted CPU while attempting to write under a corner
   case condition.

 * "git grep -i" has been taught to fold case in non-ascii locales
   correctly.

 * A test that unconditionally used "mktemp" learned that the command
   is not necessarily available everywhere.

 * There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at
   the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not
   built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git"
   potty does.  It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone
   programs (like test helpers).  A common "main()" function that
   calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to
   make it harder to make mistakes.
   (merge de61ceb jk/common-main later to maint).

 * The test framework learned a new helper test_match_signal to
   check an exit code from getting killed by an expected signal.

 * General code clean-up around a helper function to write a
   single-liner to a file.
   (merge 7eb6e10 jk/write-file later to maint).

 * One part of "git am" had an oddball helper function that called
   stuff from outside "his" as opposed to calling what we have "ours",
   which was not gender-neutral and also inconsistent with the rest of
   the system where outside stuff is usuall called "theirs" in
   contrast to "ours".

 * "git blame file" allowed the lineage of lines in the uncommitted,
   unadded contents of "file" to be inspected, but it refused when
   "file" did not appear in the current commit.  When "file" was
   created by renaming an existing file (but the change has not been
   committed), this restriction was unnecessarily tight.

 * "git add -N dir/file && git write-tree" produced an incorrect tree
   when there are other paths in the same directory that sorts after
   "file".

 * "git fetch http://user:pass@host/repo..." scrubbed the userinfo
   part, but "git push" didn't.

 * "git merge" with renormalization did not work well with
   merge-recursive, due to "safer crlf" conversion kicking in when it
   shouldn't.
   (merge 1335d76 jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf later to maint).

 * The use of strbuf in "git rm" to build filename to remove was a bit
   suboptimal, which has been fixed.

 * An age old bug that caused "git diff --ignore-space-at-eol"
   misbehave has been fixed.

 * "git notes merge" had a code to see if a path exists (and fails if
   it does) and then open the path for writing (when it doesn't).
   Replace it with open with O_EXCL.

 * "git pack-objects" and "git index-pack" mostly operate with off_t
   when talking about the offset of objects in a packfile, but there
   were a handful of places that used "unsigned long" to hold that
   value, leading to an unintended truncation.

 * Recent update to "git daemon" tries to enable the socket-level
   KEEPALIVE, but when it is spawned via inetd, the standard input
   file descriptor may not necessarily be connected to a socket.
   Suppress an ENOTSOCK error from setsockopt().

 * Recent FreeBSD stopped making perl available at /usr/bin/perl;
   switch the default the built-in path to /usr/local/bin/perl on not
   too ancient FreeBSD releases.

 * "git commit --help" said "--no-verify" is only about skipping the
   pre-commit hook, and failed to say that it also skipped the
   commit-msg hook.

 * "git merge" in Git v2.9 was taught to forbid merging an unrelated
   lines of history by default, but that is exactly the kind of thing
   the "--rejoin" mode of "git subtree" (in contrib/) wants to do.
   "git subtree" has been taught to use the "--allow-unrelated-histories"
   option to override the default.

 * The build procedure for "git persistent-https" helper (in contrib/)
   has been updated so that it can be built with more recent versions
   of Go.

 * There is an optimization used in "git diff $treeA $treeB" to borrow
   an already checked-out copy in the working tree when it is known to
   be the same as the blob being compared, expecting that open/mmap of
   such a file is faster than reading it from the object store, which
   involves inflating and applying delta.  This however kicked in even
   when the checked-out copy needs to go through the convert-to-git
   conversion (including the clean filter), which defeats the whole
   point of the optimization.  The optimization has been disabled when
   the conversion is necessary.

 * "git -c grep.patternType=extended log --basic-regexp" misbehaved
   because the internal API to access the grep machinery was not
   designed well.

 * Windows port was failing some tests in t4130, due to the lack of
   inum in the returned values by its lstat(2) emulation.

 * The reflog output format is documented better, and a new format
   --date=unix to report the seconds-since-epoch (without timezone)
   has been added.
   (merge 442f6fd jk/reflog-date later to maint).

 * "git difftool <paths>..." started in a subdirectory failed to
   interpret the paths relative to that directory, which has been
   fixed.

 * The characters in the label shown for tags/refs for commits in
   "gitweb" output are now properly escaped for proper HTML output.

 * FreeBSD can lie when asked mtime of a directory, which made the
   untracked cache code to fall back to a slow-path, which in turn
   caused tests in t7063 to fail because it wanted to verify the
   behaviour of the fast-path.

 * Squelch compiler warnings for netmalloc (in compat/) library.

 * A small memory leak in the command line parsing of "git blame"
   has been plugged.

 * The API documentation for hashmap was unclear if hashmap_entry
   can be safely discarded without any other consideration.  State
   that it is safe to do so.

 * Not-so-recent rewrite of "git am" that started making internal
   calls into the commit machinery had an unintended regression, in
   that no matter how many seconds it took to apply many patches, the
   resulting committer timestamp for the resulting commits were all
   the same.

 * "git push --force-with-lease" already had enough logic to allow
   ensuring that such a push results in creation of a ref (i.e. the
   receiving end did not have another push from sideways that would be
   discarded by our force-pushing), but didn't expose this possibility
   to the users.  It does so now.
   (merge 9eed4f3 jk/push-force-with-lease-creation later to maint).

 * The mechanism to limit the pack window memory size, when packing is
   done using multiple threads (which is the default), is per-thread,
   but this was not documented clearly.
   (merge 954176c ms/document-pack-window-memory-is-per-thread later to maint).

 * "import-tars" fast-import script (in contrib/) used to ignore a
   hardlink target and replaced it with an empty file, which has been
   corrected to record the same blob as the other file the hardlink is
   shared with.
   (merge 04e0869 js/import-tars-hardlinks later to maint).

 * "git mv dir non-existing-dir/" did not work in some environments
   the same way as existing mainstream platforms.  The code now moves
   "dir" to "non-existing-dir", without relying on rename("A", "B/")
   that strips the trailing slash of '/'.
   (merge 189d035 js/mv-dir-to-new-directory later to maint).

 * Other minor clean-ups and documentation updates
   (merge 02a8cfa rs/merge-add-strategies-simplification later to maint).
   (merge af4941d rs/merge-recursive-string-list-init later to maint).
   (merge 1eb47f1 rs/use-strbuf-add-unique-abbrev later to maint).

  To: git
Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

The first few batches for this cycle has been merged to 'master',
and new topics are trickling into 'next'.

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"]

* ak/t7800-wo-readlink (2016-06-21) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 403bbbb)
 + t7800: readlink may not be available

 One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
 been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
 command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).


* ao/p4-has-branch-prefix-fix (2016-06-22) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 333f90d)
 + git-p4: correct hasBranchPrefix verbose output

 A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
 report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
 been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
 paths that are _inside_.


* cb/t7810-test-label-fix (2016-06-21) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 4d85a00)
 + t7810: fix duplicated test title

 Test clean-up.


* ep/http-curl-trace (2016-05-24) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at c290515)
 + imap-send.c: introduce the GIT_TRACE_CURL enviroment variable
 + http.c: implement the GIT_TRACE_CURL environment variable

 HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
 trace.


* ew/mboxrd-format-am (2016-06-06) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at ee0a088)
 + am: support --patch-format=mboxrd
 + mailsplit: support unescaping mboxrd messages
 + pretty: support "mboxrd" output format

 Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
 happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
 ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.


* jc/t2300-setup (2016-06-22) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 62b902a)
 + t2300: "git --exec-path" is not usable in $PATH on Windows as-is

 Portability fix for Windows.


* jk/add-i-diff-compact-heuristics (2016-06-16) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 568f892)
 + add--interactive: respect diff.compactionHeuristic

 "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
 experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
 as "git diff" output.


* jk/bisect-show-tree (2016-06-16) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 6970f87e)
 + bisect: always call setup_revisions after init_revisions

 "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
 bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
 data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.


* jk/gpg-interface-cleanup (2016-06-17) 7 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at eed3498)
 + gpg-interface: check gpg signature creation status
 + sign_buffer: use pipe_command
 + verify_signed_buffer: use pipe_command
 + run-command: add pipe_command helper
 + verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object
 + verify_signed_buffer: drop pbuf variable
 + gpg-interface: use child_process.args

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).


* jk/parseopt-string-list (2016-06-13) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 27462e6)
 + blame,shortlog: don't make local option variables static
 + interpret-trailers: don't duplicate option strings
 + parse_opt_string_list: stop allocating new strings
 (this branch is used by jk/string-list-static-init.)

 The command line argument parsing that uses OPT_STRING_LIST() often
 made a copy of the argv[] element, which was unnecessary.


* jk/repack-keep-unreachable (2016-06-14) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 802b849)
 + repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
 + repack: add --keep-unreachable option
 + repack: document --unpack-unreachable option

 "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
 loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
 This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
 (e.g. "gc --auto").


* jk/send-pack-stdio (2016-06-10) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 2cfb0ff)
 + write_or_die: remove the unused write_or_whine() function
 + send-pack: use buffered I/O to talk to pack-objects

 Code clean-up.


* jk/string-list-static-init (2016-06-13) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 3d4b2fa)
 + use string_list initializer consistently
 + Merge branch 'jk/parseopt-string-list' into jk/string-list-static-init
 (this branch uses jk/parseopt-string-list.)

 Instead of taking advantage of a struct string_list that is
 allocated with all NULs happens to be STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP kind,
 initialize them explicitly as such, to document their behaviour
 better.


* jk/tzoffset-fix (2016-06-20) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 08ec8c5)
 + local_tzoffset: detect errors from tm_to_time_t
 + t0006: test various date formats
 + t0006: rename test-date's "show" to "relative"

 The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
 prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
 bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
 +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
 of aborting.


* jk/upload-pack-hook (2016-06-02) 7 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at e5e5bb6)
 + upload-pack: provide a hook for running pack-objects
 + t1308: do not get fooled by symbolic links to the source tree
 + config: add a notion of "scope"
 + config: return configset value for current_config_ functions
 + config: set up config_source for command-line config
 + git_config_parse_parameter: refactor cleanup code
 + git_config_with_options: drop "found" counting

 "upload-pack" allows a custom "git pack-objects" replacement when
 responding to "fetch/clone" via the uploadpack.packObjectsHook.


* js/mingw-parameter-less-c-functions (2016-06-20) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at e673c65)
 + mingw: let the build succeed with DEVELOPER=1

 Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
 functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
 corrected.


* js/perf-on-apple (2016-06-21) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 83529b9)
 + perf: accommodate for MacOSX

 t/perf needs /usr/bin/time with GNU extension; the invocation of it
 is updated to "gtime" on Darwin.


* km/fetch-do-not-free-remote-name (2016-06-14) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 4bc34c4)
 + builtin/fetch.c: don't free remote->name after fetch

 The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
 be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.


* lc/shell-default-value-noexpand (2016-06-19) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 2dc7727)
 + sh-setup: enclose setting of ${VAR=default} in double-quotes

 Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
 to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.


* lf/sideband-returns-void (2016-06-16) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 558c781)
 + upload-pack.c: make send_client_data() return void
 + sideband.c: make send_sideband() return void

 A small internal API cleanup.


* mg/signature-doc (2016-06-17) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 2732a37)
 + Documentation/technical: signed merge tag format
 + Documentation/technical: signed commit format
 + Documentation/technical: signed tag format
 + Documentation/technical: describe signature formats

 Formats of the various data (and how to validate them) where we use

 + pretty.c: support <direction>|(<negative number>) forms
 + pretty: pass graph width to pretty formatting for use in '%>|(N)'

 "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
 relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
 draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
 also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative

 be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
 of the submodules are not prepared for.

 An earlier update to "git svn" tightened the parsing of refs given

 loosening the check a bit.

 I'm likely to discard this, favouring a direct pull request from
 the subsystem maintainer directly going to 'master'.

 - warn on unusable smudgeToFile/cleanFromFile config

 (this branch uses tb/convert-peek-in-index.)

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the
 whole contents via pipe, which is suboptimal for some
 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.

 There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at
 the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not
 built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git"
 potty does.  It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone
 programs (like test helpers).  A common "main()" function that
 calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to
 make it harder to make mistakes.

* ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all (2016-06-22) 1 commit
 - pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec

 An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant
 'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that
 finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which
 ends up removing everything.  Start warning about this use of an
 empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a
 more explicit '.' for that instead.

 The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and
 eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading
 the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature.

 + log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 + log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute

 The commands in the "log/diff" family had an FILE* pointer in the
 data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
 used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
 to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
 codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
 instead.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* bc/cocci (2016-06-28) 11 commits

 Conversion from unsigned char sha1[20] to struct object_id
 continues.

* jk/big-and-future-archive-tar (2016-07-01) 5 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-07-06 at 89f3835)
 + archive-tar: drop return value
 + archive-tar: write extended headers for far-future mtime
 + archive-tar: write extended headers for file sizes >= 8GB
 + t5000: test tar files that overflow ustar headers
 + t9300: factor out portable "head -c" replacement

 "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
 commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR
 format.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* lf/recv-sideband-cleanup (2016-07-06) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-07-06 at d527bcb)
 + sideband.c: small optimization of strbuf usage
 + sideband.c: refactor recv_sideband()

 Code simplification.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* sb/submodule-clone-retry (2016-06-13) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 8a86d54)
 + submodule update: continue when a clone fails
 + submodule--helper: initial clone learns retry logic

 "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
 eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
 submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/blame-reverse (2016-06-14) 2 commits
 - blame: dwim "blame --reverse OLD" as "blame --reverse OLD.."
 - blame: improve diagnosis for "--reverse NEW"

 It is a common mistake to say "git blame --reverse OLD path",
 expecting that the command line is dwimmed as if asking how lines
 in path in an old revision OLD have survived up to the current
 commit.

 Any supporters?  Otherwise will drop.


* nd/shallow-deepen (2016-06-13) 27 commits
 - fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
 - upload-pack: add get_reachable_list()
 - upload-pack: split check_unreachable() in two, prep for get_reachable_list()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth excluding a ref
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions
 - refs: add expand_ref()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth since a specific date
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary based on time with --shallow-since
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-since
 - upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on time
 - shallow.c: implement a generic shallow boundary finder based on rev-list
 - fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
 - fetch-pack.c: mark strings for translating
 - fetch-pack: use a common function for verbose printing
 - fetch-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move rev-list code out of check_non_tip()
 - upload-pack: make check_non_tip() clean things up on error
 - upload-pack: tighten number parsing at "deepen" lines
 - upload-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"
 - upload-pack: move "shallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Needs review.

 Rerolled.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.


* jc/attr-more (2016-06-09) 8 commits
 - attr.c: outline the future plans by heavily commenting

 - attr.c: rename a local variable check
 - fixup! d5ad6c13
 - attr.c: pass struct git_attr_check down the callchain
 - attr.c: add push_stack() helper
 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute
 subsystem implementation.

 Needs to be redone.


* mh/ref-iterators (2016-06-20) 13 commits
 - for_each_reflog(): reimplement using iterators
 - dir_iterator: new API for iterating over a directory tree
 - for_each_reflog(): don't abort for bad references

 - do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
 - refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords
 (this branch is used by mh/ref-store; uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
 has been revamped.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* mh/connect (2016-06-06) 10 commits
 - connect: [host:port] is legacy for ssh
 - connect: move ssh command line preparation to a separate function
 - connect: actively reject git:// urls with a user part
 - connect: change the --diag-url output to separate user and host
 - connect: make parse_connect_url() return the user part of the url as a separate value
 - connect: group CONNECT_DIAG_URL handling code
 - connect: make parse_connect_url() return separated host and port
 - connect: re-derive a host:port string from the separate host and port variables
 - connect: call get_host_and_port() earlier
 - connect: document why we sometimes call get_port after get_host_and_port

 Rewrite Git-URL parsing routine (hopefully) without changing any
 behaviour.

* nd/worktree-lock (2016-07-01) 7 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - fixup! worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Need to squash one fixup before merging to 'next'.


* sb/submodule-default-paths (2016-06-20) 5 commits
 - completion: clone can recurse into submodules
 - clone: add --init-submodule=<pathspec> switch
 - submodule update: add `--init-default-path` switch
 - Merge branch 'sb/pathspec-label' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 - Merge branch 'jc/attr' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 (this branch uses jc/attr and sb/pathspec-label; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 Allow specifying the set of submodules the user is interested in on
 the command line of "git clone" that clones the superproject.


* jc/attr (2016-05-25) 18 commits
 - attr: support quoting pathname patterns in C style

 (this branch is used by jc/attr-more, sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
 optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.

 I wanted to polish this topic further to make the attribute
 subsystem thread-ready, but because other topics depend on this
 topic and they do not (yet) need it to be thread-ready, let's merge
 this early part together with the dependent topics to 'next', and
 back-burner the threading enhancement to another day.


* pb/bisect (2016-06-27) 9 commits
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_write` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `is_expected_rev` & `check_expected_revs` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_reset` shell function in C

 - bisect--helper: use OPT_CMDMODE instead of OPT_BOOL

 GSoC "bisect" topic.


* sb/pathspec-label (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 - pathspec: allow escaped query values
 - pathspec: allow querying for attributes
 - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop
 - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 - Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.

 - lock_ref_sha1_basic(): only handle REF_NODEREF mode
 - commit_ref_update(): remove the flags parameter

 - unlock_ref(): move definition higher in the file
 - lock_ref_for_update(): new function
 - add_update(): initialize the whole ref_update
 - verify_refname_available(): adjust constness in declaration
 - refs: don't dereference on rename

 - remove_dir_recursively(): add docstring
 - safe_create_leading_directories(): improve docstring

 (this branch is used by mh/ref-iterators, mh/ref-store and mh/update-ref-errors.)

 Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
 backend series can land.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 67dac59)
 + send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'master'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option
 - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
 - branch, tag: use porcelain output
 - ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output
 - ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms
 - ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()
 - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier
 - ref-filter: add support for %(upstream:track,nobracket)
 - ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid upstreams
 - ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item()

 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.


* dt/index-helper (2016-07-06) 21 commits
 - index-helper: indexhelper.exitAfter config
 - trace: measure where the time is spent in the index-heavy operations
 - index-helper: optionally automatically run
 - index-helper: autorun mode
 - index-helper: don't run if already running
 - index-helper: kill mode
 - watchman: add a config option to enable the extension
 - unpack-trees: preserve index extensions
 - update-index: enable/disable watchman support
 - index-helper: use watchman to avoid refreshing index with lstat()
 - watchman: support watchman to reduce index refresh cost
 - read-cache: add watchman 'WAMA' extension
 - index-helper: log warnings
 - index-helper: add --detach
 - daemonize(): set a flag before exiting the main process
 - index-helper: add --strict
 - index-helper: new daemon for caching index and related stuff
 - unix-socket.c: add stub implementation when unix sockets are not supported
 - pkt-line: add gentle version of packet_write
 - read-cache: allow to keep mmap'd memory after reading
 - read-cache.c: fix constness of verify_hdr()

 A new "index-helper" daemon has been introduced to give newly
 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and
 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 At v14.


* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits
 - index-pack: --clone-bundle option
 - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle
 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

* jk/common-main (2016-07-01) 1 commit
 - Merge branch 'jk/common-main-2.8' into jk/common-main
 (this branch uses jk/common-main-2.8.)


* jk/common-main-2.8 (2016-07-01) 5 commits
 - common-main: call git_setup_gettext()
 - common-main: call restore_sigpipe_to_default()
 - common-main: call sanitize_stdfds()
 - common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path()
 - add an extra level of indirection to main()
 (this branch is used by jk/common-main.)

 There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at
 the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not
 built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git"
 potty does.  It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone
 programs (like test helpers).  A common "main()" function that
 calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to
 make it harder to make mistakes.


* nd/ita-cleanup (2016-07-01) 3 commits
 - grep: fix grepping for "intent to add" files
 - t7810-grep.sh: fix a whitespace inconsistency
 - t7810-grep.sh: fix duplicated test name

 Git does not know what the contents in the index should be for a
 path added with "git add -N" yet, so "git grep --cached" should not
 show hits (or show lack of hits, with -L) in such a path.  But we
 did by mistake, which has been corrected.

* jh/clean-smudge-annex (2016-06-22) 10 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - use smudgeToFile filter in recursive merge
 - use smudgeToFile filter in git am
 - better recovery from failure of smudgeToFile filter
 - warn on unusable smudgeToFile/cleanFromFile config
 - use smudgeToFile in git checkout etc
 - use cleanFromFile in git add
 - add smudgeToFile and cleanFromFile filter configs
 - clarify %f documentation
 - Merge branch 'tb/convert-peek-in-index' into jh/clean-smudge-annex
 (this branch uses tb/convert-peek-in-index.)

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the
 whole contents via pipe, which is suboptimal for some
 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.


* dk/blame-move-no-reason-for-1-line-context (2016-05-29) 1 commit
 - blame: require 0 context lines while finding moved lines with -M

 "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 We may want to squash a test or two to this commit.  Volunteers?


* tb/convert-peek-in-index (2016-06-07) 3 commits
 - correct ce_compare_data() in a middle of a merge
 - read-cache: factor out get_sha1_from_index() helper
 - convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF
 (this branch is used by jh/clean-smudge-annex.)

 Needs review.


* sb/bisect (2016-04-15) 22 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - bisect: get back halfway shortcut
 - bisect: compute best bisection in compute_relevant_weights()
 - bisect: use a bottom-up traversal to find relevant weights
 - bisect: prepare for different algorithms based on find_all
 - bisect: rename count_distance() to compute_weight()
 - bisect: make total number of commits global
 - bisect: introduce distance_direction()
 - bisect: extract get_distance() function from code duplication
 - bisect: use commit instead of commit list as arguments when appropriate
 - bisect: replace clear_distance() by unique markers
 - bisect: use struct node_data array instead of int array
 - bisect: get rid of recursion in count_distance()
 - bisect: make algorithm behavior independent of DEBUG_BISECT
 - bisect: make bisect compile if DEBUG_BISECT is set
 - bisect: plug the biggest memory leak
 - bisect: add test for the bisect algorithm
 - t6030: generalize test to not rely on current implementation
 - t: use test_cmp_rev() where appropriate
 - t/test-lib-functions.sh: generalize test_cmp_rev
 - bisect: allow 'bisect run' if no good commit is known
 - bisect: write about `bisect next` in documentation

 The internal algorithm used in "git bisect" to find the next commit
 to check has been optimized greatly.

 Expecting a reroll.

 . WIP: diff-b-m
 - diffcore-rename: allow easier debugging
 - diffcore-rename.c: add locate_rename_src()
 - diffcore-break: allow debugging

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a
 completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed
 file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from
 other place.

 The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately.
 Will discard.

* ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all (2016-06-22) 1 commit
 - pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec

 An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant
 'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that
 finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which
 ends up removing everything.  Start warning about this use of an
 empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a
 more explicit '.' for that instead.

 The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and
 eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading
 the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature.

 Will wait for further comments for a bit before merging to 'next'.

 - graph: respect the diffopt.file setting
 - line-log: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute

 The commands in the "log/diff" family had an FILE* pointer in the
 data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
 used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
 to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
 codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
 instead.

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 9793d81)
 + lib-httpd.sh: print error.log on error

 Debugging aid.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* sb/submodule-clone-retry (2016-06-13) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 8a86d54)
 + submodule update: continue when a clone fails
 + submodule--helper: initial clone learns retry logic

 "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
 eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
 submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/blame-reverse (2016-06-14) 2 commits
 - blame: dwim "blame --reverse OLD" as "blame --reverse OLD.."
 - blame: improve diagnosis for "--reverse NEW"

 It is a common mistake to say "git blame --reverse OLD path",
 expecting that the command line is dwimmed as if asking how lines
 in path in an old revision OLD have survived up to the current
 commit.

 Any supporters?  Otherwise will drop.


* km/fetch-do-not-free-remote-name (2016-06-14) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 4bc34c4)
 + builtin/fetch.c: don't free remote->name after fetch

 The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
 be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* nd/shallow-deepen (2016-06-13) 27 commits
 - fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
 - upload-pack: add get_reachable_list()
 - upload-pack: split check_unreachable() in two, prep for get_reachable_list()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth excluding a ref
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions
 - refs: add expand_ref()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth since a specific date
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary based on time with --shallow-since
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-since
 - upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on time
 - shallow.c: implement a generic shallow boundary finder based on rev-list
 - fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
 - fetch-pack.c: mark strings for translating
 - fetch-pack: use a common function for verbose printing
 - fetch-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move rev-list code out of check_non_tip()
 - upload-pack: make check_non_tip() clean things up on error
 - upload-pack: tighten number parsing at "deepen" lines
 - upload-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"
 - upload-pack: move "shallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Needs review.

 Rerolled.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.


* jk/send-pack-stdio (2016-06-10) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 2cfb0ff)
 + write_or_die: remove the unused write_or_whine() function
 + send-pack: use buffered I/O to talk to pack-objects

 Code clean-up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* pb/commit-editmsg-path (2016-06-09) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 0f01ce1)
 + builtin/commit.c: memoize git-path for COMMIT_EDITMSG

 Code clean-up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/attr-more (2016-06-09) 8 commits
 - attr.c: outline the future plans by heavily commenting
 - attr.c: always pass check[] to collect_some_attrs()
 - attr.c: introduce empty_attr_check_elems()
 - attr.c: correct ugly hack for git_all_attrs()
 - attr.c: rename a local variable check
 - fixup! d5ad6c13
 - attr.c: pass struct git_attr_check down the callchain
 - attr.c: add push_stack() helper
 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute
 subsystem implementation.

 Needs to be redone.


* mh/ref-iterators (2016-06-20) 13 commits
 - for_each_reflog(): reimplement using iterators
 - dir_iterator: new API for iterating over a directory tree
 - for_each_reflog(): don't abort for bad references
 - do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iteration
 - refs: introduce an iterator interface
 - ref_resolves_to_object(): new function
 - entry_resolves_to_object(): rename function from ref_resolves_to_object()

 - remote rm: handle symbolic refs correctly
 - delete_refs(): add a flags argument
 - refs: use name "prefix" consistently
 - do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
 - refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords
 (this branch is used by mh/ref-store; uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
 has been revamped.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* ew/mboxrd-format-am (2016-06-06) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at ee0a088)
 + am: support --patch-format=mboxrd
 + mailsplit: support unescaping mboxrd messages
 + pretty: support "mboxrd" output format

 Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
 happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
 ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* mh/connect (2016-06-06) 10 commits
 - connect: [host:port] is legacy for ssh
 - connect: move ssh command line preparation to a separate function
 - connect: actively reject git:// urls with a user part
 - connect: change the --diag-url output to separate user and host
 - connect: make parse_connect_url() return the user part of the url as a separate value

 - connect: re-derive a host:port string from the separate host and port variables
 - connect: call get_host_and_port() earlier
 - connect: document why we sometimes call get_port after get_host_and_port

 Rewrite Git-URL parsing routine (hopefully) without changing any
 behaviour.

 Comments?

* nd/worktree-lock (2016-07-01) 7 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - fixup! worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Need to squash one fixup before merging to 'next'.


* jk/upload-pack-hook (2016-06-02) 7 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at e5e5bb6)

 + config: return configset value for current_config_ functions
 + config: set up config_source for command-line config
 + git_config_parse_parameter: refactor cleanup code
 + git_config_with_options: drop "found" counting

 Allow a custom "git upload-pack" replacement to respond to
 "fetch/clone" request.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* sb/submodule-default-paths (2016-06-20) 5 commits
 - completion: clone can recurse into submodules
 - clone: add --init-submodule=<pathspec> switch
 - submodule update: add `--init-default-path` switch
 - Merge branch 'sb/pathspec-label' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 - Merge branch 'jc/attr' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 (this branch uses jc/attr and sb/pathspec-label; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 Allow specifying the set of submodules the user is interested in on
 the command line of "git clone" that clones the superproject.


* ep/http-curl-trace (2016-05-24) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at c290515)
 + imap-send.c: introduce the GIT_TRACE_CURL enviroment variable
 + http.c: implement the GIT_TRACE_CURL environment variable

 HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
 trace.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/attr (2016-05-25) 18 commits
 - attr: support quoting pathname patterns in C style

 - attr: rename function and struct related to checking attributes
 - attr.c: plug small leak in parse_attr_line()

 - commit.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
 (this branch is used by jc/attr-more, sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
 optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.

 I wanted to polish this topic further to make the attribute
 subsystem thread-ready, but because other topics depend on this
 topic and they do not (yet) need it to be thread-ready, let's merge
 this early part together with the dependent topics to 'next', and
 back-burner the threading enhancement to another day.


* pb/bisect (2016-06-27) 9 commits
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_write` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `is_expected_rev` & `check_expected_revs` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_reset` shell function in C
 - wrapper: move is_empty_file() and rename it as is_empty_or_missing_file()
 - t6030: explicitly test for bisection cleanup
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_clean_state` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `write_terms` shell function in C
 - bisect: rewrite `check_term_format` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: use OPT_CMDMODE instead of OPT_BOOL

 GSoC "bisect" topic.


* sb/pathspec-label (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 - pathspec: allow escaped query values
 - pathspec: allow querying for attributes
 - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop
 - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 - Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.


* nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection (2016-05-24) 6 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 55414fa)

 + worktree.c: use is_dot_or_dotdot()
 + git-worktree.txt: keep subcommand listing in alphabetical order
 + worktree.c: rewrite mark_current_worktree() to avoid strbuf
 + completion: support git-worktree
 (this branch is used by nd/worktree-lock.)

 Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature.

 Will merge to 'master'.

 Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
 backend series can land.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 67dac59)
 + send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'master'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option
 - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
 - branch, tag: use porcelain output
 - ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output
 - ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms
 - ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()
 - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier
 - ref-filter: add support for %(upstream:track,nobracket)
 - ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid upstreams
 - ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item()
 - ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c
 - ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length
 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.


* dt/index-helper (2016-06-27) 21 commits
 - unix-socket.c: add stub implementation when unix sockets are not supported
 - index-helper: indexhelper.exitafter config
 - trace: measure where the time is spent in the index-heavy operations
 - index-helper: optionally automatically run
 - index-helper: autorun mode

 - pkt-line: add gentle version of packet_write
 - read-cache: allow to keep mmap'd memory after reading
 - read-cache.c: fix constness of verify_hdr()

 A new "index-helper" daemon has been introduced to give newly
 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and
 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Expecting a reroll.
 ($gmane/298331, $gmane/298319).


* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits
 - index-pack: --clone-bundle option
 - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle
 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

 + color.h: remove obsolete comment about limitations on Windows

 For a long time, we carried an in-code comment that said our

 temporary branches, which has been moved to refs/git-p4-tmp/.

* jc/pull-rebase-ff (2016-06-29) 1 commit
 -   pull: fast-forward "pull --rebase=true"

 "git pull --rebase", when there is no new commits on our side since
 we forked from the upstream, should be able to fast-forward without
 invoking "git rebase", but it didn't.

 Needs a real log message and a few tests.


* ps/rebase-i-auto-unstash-upon-abort (2016-06-29) 1 commit
 - rebase -i: restore autostash on abort

 "git rebase -i --autostash" did not restore the auto-stashed change
 when the operation was aborted.

 Will merge to 'next'.

* jh/clean-smudge-annex (2016-06-22) 10 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - use smudgeToFile filter in recursive merge
 - use smudgeToFile filter in git am
 - better recovery from failure of smudgeToFile filter
 - warn on unusable smudgeToFile/cleanFromFile config
 - use smudgeToFile in git checkout etc
 - use cleanFromFile in git add
 - add smudgeToFile and cleanFromFile filter configs
 - clarify %f documentation
 - Merge branch 'tb/convert-peek-in-index' into jh/clean-smudge-annex
 (this branch uses tb/convert-peek-in-index.)

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the
 whole contents via pipe, which is suboptimal for some
 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.


* dk/blame-move-no-reason-for-1-line-context (2016-05-29) 1 commit
 - blame: require 0 context lines while finding moved lines with -M

 "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 We may want to squash a test or two to this commit.  Volunteers?


* tb/convert-peek-in-index (2016-06-07) 3 commits
 - correct ce_compare_data() in a middle of a merge
 - read-cache: factor out get_sha1_from_index() helper
 - convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF
 (this branch is used by jh/clean-smudge-annex.)

 - bisect: prepare for different algorithms based on find_all
 - bisect: rename count_distance() to compute_weight()
 - bisect: make total number of commits global
 - bisect: introduce distance_direction()
 - bisect: extract get_distance() function from code duplication
 - bisect: use commit instead of commit list as arguments when appropriate
 - bisect: replace clear_distance() by unique markers
 - bisect: use struct node_data array instead of int array
 - bisect: get rid of recursion in count_distance()
 - bisect: make algorithm behavior independent of DEBUG_BISECT
 - bisect: make bisect compile if DEBUG_BISECT is set
 - bisect: plug the biggest memory leak
 - bisect: add test for the bisect algorithm
 - t6030: generalize test to not rely on current implementation
 - t: use test_cmp_rev() where appropriate
 - t/test-lib-functions.sh: generalize test_cmp_rev
 - bisect: allow 'bisect run' if no good commit is known
 - bisect: write about `bisect next` in documentation

 The internal algorithm used in "git bisect" to find the next commit
 to check has been optimized greatly.

 Expecting a reroll.

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a

 file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from
 other place.

 The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately.

* ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all (2016-06-22) 1 commit
 - pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec

 An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant
 'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that
 finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which
 ends up removing everything.  Start warning about this use of an
 empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a
 more explicit '.' for that instead.

 The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and
 eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading
 the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature.

 Will wait for further comments for a bit before merging to 'next'.

 - shortlog: respect the --output=<file> setting
 - format-patch: use stdout directly
 - format-patch: avoid freopen()
 - format-patch: explicitly switch off color when writing to files
 - shortlog: support outputting to streams other than stdout
 - graph: respect the diffopt.file setting
 - line-log: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute

 The commands in the "log/diff" family had an FILE* pointer in the
 data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
 used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
 to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
 codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
 instead.

 + run-command: add pipe_command helper
 + verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object
 + verify_signed_buffer: drop pbuf variable
 + gpg-interface: use child_process.args

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).

 "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
 relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 8a86d54)
 + submodule update: continue when a clone fails
 + submodule--helper: initial clone learns retry logic

 "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
 eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
 submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/blame-reverse (2016-06-14) 2 commits
 - blame: dwim "blame --reverse OLD" as "blame --reverse OLD.."
 - blame: improve diagnosis for "--reverse NEW"

 It is a common mistake to say "git blame --reverse OLD path",
 expecting that the command line is dwimmed as if asking how lines
 in path in an old revision OLD have survived up to the current
 commit.

 Any supporters?  Otherwise will drop.


* km/fetch-do-not-free-remote-name (2016-06-14) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 4bc34c4)
 + builtin/fetch.c: don't free remote->name after fetch

 The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
 be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* nd/shallow-deepen (2016-06-13) 27 commits
 - fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
 - upload-pack: add get_reachable_list()
 - upload-pack: split check_unreachable() in two, prep for get_reachable_list()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth excluding a ref
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions
 - refs: add expand_ref()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth since a specific date
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary based on time with --shallow-since
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-since
 - upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on time
 - shallow.c: implement a generic shallow boundary finder based on rev-list
 - fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
 - fetch-pack.c: mark strings for translating
 - fetch-pack: use a common function for verbose printing
 - fetch-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move rev-list code out of check_non_tip()
 - upload-pack: make check_non_tip() clean things up on error
 - upload-pack: tighten number parsing at "deepen" lines
 - upload-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"
 - upload-pack: move "shallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Needs review.

 Rerolled.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.


* jk/send-pack-stdio (2016-06-10) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 2cfb0ff)
 + write_or_die: remove the unused write_or_whine() function
 + send-pack: use buffered I/O to talk to pack-objects

 Code clean-up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* pb/commit-editmsg-path (2016-06-09) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 0f01ce1)
 + builtin/commit.c: memoize git-path for COMMIT_EDITMSG

 Code clean-up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/attr-more (2016-06-09) 8 commits
 - attr.c: outline the future plans by heavily commenting
 - attr.c: always pass check[] to collect_some_attrs()
 - attr.c: introduce empty_attr_check_elems()
 - attr.c: correct ugly hack for git_all_attrs()
 - attr.c: rename a local variable check
 - fixup! d5ad6c13
 - attr.c: pass struct git_attr_check down the callchain
 - attr.c: add push_stack() helper
 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute
 subsystem implementation.

 Needs to be redone.


* mh/ref-iterators (2016-06-20) 13 commits
 - for_each_reflog(): reimplement using iterators
 - dir_iterator: new API for iterating over a directory tree
 - for_each_reflog(): don't abort for bad references
 - do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iteration
 - refs: introduce an iterator interface
 - ref_resolves_to_object(): new function
 - entry_resolves_to_object(): rename function from ref_resolves_to_object()
 - get_ref_cache(): only create an instance if there is a submodule
 - remote rm: handle symbolic refs correctly
 - delete_refs(): add a flags argument
 - refs: use name "prefix" consistently
 - do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
 - refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords
 (this branch is used by mh/ref-store; uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
 has been revamped.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* ew/mboxrd-format-am (2016-06-06) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at ee0a088)
 + am: support --patch-format=mboxrd
 + mailsplit: support unescaping mboxrd messages
 + pretty: support "mboxrd" output format

 Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
 happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
 ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* mh/connect (2016-06-06) 10 commits
 - connect: [host:port] is legacy for ssh
 - connect: move ssh command line preparation to a separate function
 - connect: actively reject git:// urls with a user part
 - connect: change the --diag-url output to separate user and host

 - connect: group CONNECT_DIAG_URL handling code
 - connect: make parse_connect_url() return separated host and port
 - connect: re-derive a host:port string from the separate host and port variables
 - connect: call get_host_and_port() earlier
 - connect: document why we sometimes call get_port after get_host_and_port

 Rewrite Git-URL parsing routine (hopefully) without changing any
 behaviour.

 Comments?

 Will merge to 'master'.


* nd/worktree-lock (2016-06-13) 6 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* jk/upload-pack-hook (2016-06-02) 7 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at e5e5bb6)
 + upload-pack: provide a hook for running pack-objects
 + t1308: do not get fooled by symbolic links to the source tree
 + config: add a notion of "scope"
 + config: return configset value for current_config_ functions
 + config: set up config_source for command-line config
 + git_config_parse_parameter: refactor cleanup code
 + git_config_with_options: drop "found" counting

 Allow a custom "git upload-pack" replacement to respond to
 "fetch/clone" request.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* sb/submodule-default-paths (2016-06-20) 5 commits
 - completion: clone can recurse into submodules
 - clone: add --init-submodule=<pathspec> switch
 - submodule update: add `--init-default-path` switch
 - Merge branch 'sb/pathspec-label' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 - Merge branch 'jc/attr' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 (this branch uses jc/attr and sb/pathspec-label; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 Allow specifying the set of submodules the user is interested in on
 the command line of "git clone" that clones the superproject.


* ep/http-curl-trace (2016-05-24) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at c290515)
 + imap-send.c: introduce the GIT_TRACE_CURL enviroment variable
 + http.c: implement the GIT_TRACE_CURL environment variable

 HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
 trace.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/attr (2016-05-25) 18 commits
 - attr: support quoting pathname patterns in C style
 - attr: expose validity check for attribute names

 - attr: rename function and struct related to checking attributes
 - attr.c: plug small leak in parse_attr_line()

 - attr.c: update a stale comment on "struct match_attr"
 - attr.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
 - commit.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
 (this branch is used by jc/attr-more, sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
 optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.

 I wanted to polish this topic further to make the attribute
 subsystem thread-ready, but because other topics depend on this
 topic and they do not (yet) need it to be thread-ready, let's merge
 this early part together with the dependent topics to 'next', and
 back-burner the threading enhancement to another day.


* pb/bisect (2016-06-27) 9 commits
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_write` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `is_expected_rev` & `check_expected_revs` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_reset` shell function in C
 - wrapper: move is_empty_file() and rename it as is_empty_or_missing_file()
 - t6030: explicitly test for bisection cleanup
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_clean_state` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `write_terms` shell function in C
 - bisect: rewrite `check_term_format` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: use OPT_CMDMODE instead of OPT_BOOL

 GSoC "bisect" topic.


* sb/pathspec-label (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 - pathspec: allow escaped query values
 - pathspec: allow querying for attributes
 - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop
 - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 - Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.


* nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection (2016-05-24) 6 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 55414fa)
 + worktree: simplify prefixing paths
 + worktree: avoid 0{40}, too many zeroes, hard to read
 + worktree.c: use is_dot_or_dotdot()
 + git-worktree.txt: keep subcommand listing in alphabetical order
 + worktree.c: rewrite mark_current_worktree() to avoid strbuf
 + completion: support git-worktree
 (this branch is used by nd/worktree-lock.)

 Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature.

 Will merge to 'master'.

 - remove_dir_recursively(): add docstring
 - safe_create_leading_directories(): improve docstring
 - read_raw_ref(): don't get confused by an empty directory

 (this branch is used by mh/ref-iterators, mh/ref-store and mh/update-ref-errors.)

 Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
 backend series can land.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 67dac59)
 + send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'master'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option
 - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
 - branch, tag: use porcelain output
 - ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output
 - ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms
 - ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()
 - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier
 - ref-filter: add support for %(upstream:track,nobracket)
 - ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid upstreams
 - ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item()
 - ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c
 - ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length
 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.


* dt/index-helper (2016-06-27) 21 commits
 - unix-socket.c: add stub implementation when unix sockets are not supported
 - index-helper: indexhelper.exitafter config
 - trace: measure where the time is spent in the index-heavy operations
 - index-helper: optionally automatically run
 - index-helper: autorun mode
 - index-helper: don't run if already running

 A new "index-helper" daemon has been introduced to give newly
 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and
 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Expecting a reroll.
 ($gmane/298331, $gmane/298319).


* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits
 - index-pack: --clone-bundle option
 - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle
 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

* dp/autoconf-curl-ssl (2016-06-28) 1 commit
 - ./configure.ac: detect SSL in libcurl using curl-config

 The ./configure script generated from configure.ac was taught how
 to detect support of SSL by libcurl better.

 Needs review.


* js/color-on-windows-comment (2016-06-28) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 38a2ea1)
 + color.h: remove obsolete comment about limitations on Windows

 For a long time, we carried an in-code comment that said our
 colored output would work only when we use fprintf/fputs on
 Windows, which no longer is the case for the past few years.

 Will merge to 'master'.

* jh/clean-smudge-annex (2016-06-22) 10 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - use smudgeToFile filter in recursive merge
 - use smudgeToFile filter in git am
 - better recovery from failure of smudgeToFile filter
 - warn on unusable smudgeToFile/cleanFromFile config
 - use smudgeToFile in git checkout etc
 - use cleanFromFile in git add
 - add smudgeToFile and cleanFromFile filter configs
 - clarify %f documentation
 - Merge branch 'tb/convert-peek-in-index' into jh/clean-smudge-annex
 (this branch uses tb/convert-peek-in-index.)

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the
 whole contents via pipe, which is suboptimal for some
 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.


* dk/blame-move-no-reason-for-1-line-context (2016-05-29) 1 commit
 - blame: require 0 context lines while finding moved lines with -M

 "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 We may want to squash a test or two to this commit.  Volunteers?


* tb/convert-peek-in-index (2016-06-07) 3 commits
 - correct ce_compare_data() in a middle of a merge
 - read-cache: factor out get_sha1_from_index() helper
 - convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF
 (this branch is used by jh/clean-smudge-annex.)

 Needs review.


* sb/bisect (2016-04-15) 22 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - bisect: get back halfway shortcut
 - bisect: compute best bisection in compute_relevant_weights()
 - bisect: use a bottom-up traversal to find relevant weights
 - bisect: prepare for different algorithms based on find_all
 - bisect: rename count_distance() to compute_weight()

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a

* ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all (2016-06-22) 1 commit
 - pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec

 An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant
 'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that
 finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which
 ends up removing everything.  Start warning about this use of an
 empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a
 more explicit '.' for that instead.

 The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and
 eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading
 the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature.

 - log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute

 The commands in the "log/diff" family had an FILE* pointer in the
 data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
 used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
 to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
 codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
 instead.

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to

 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been

 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Needs review.

 Rerolled.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.


* jk/send-pack-stdio (2016-06-10) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 2cfb0ff)
 + write_or_die: remove the unused write_or_whine() function

 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute
 subsystem implementation.

 Needs to be redone.

 - do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
 - refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords
 (this branch is used by mh/ref-store; uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
 has been revamped.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* ew/mboxrd-format-am (2016-06-06) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at ee0a088)
 + am: support --patch-format=mboxrd
 + mailsplit: support unescaping mboxrd messages
 + pretty: support "mboxrd" output format

 Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
 happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
 ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* mh/connect (2016-06-06) 10 commits
 - connect: [host:port] is legacy for ssh

* nd/worktree-lock (2016-06-13) 6 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.

 - Merge branch 'jc/attr' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 (this branch uses jc/attr and sb/pathspec-label; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 Allow specifying the set of submodules the user is interested in on
 the command line of "git clone" that clones the superproject.


* ep/http-curl-trace (2016-05-24) 2 commits

 - commit.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
 (this branch is used by jc/attr-more, sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
 optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.

 I wanted to polish this topic further to make the attribute
 subsystem thread-ready, but because other topics depend on this
 topic and they do not (yet) need it to be thread-ready, let's merge
 this early part together with the dependent topics to 'next', and
 back-burner the threading enhancement to another day.


* pb/bisect (2016-06-27) 9 commits

* sb/pathspec-label (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 - pathspec: allow escaped query values
 - pathspec: allow querying for attributes
 - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop
 - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 - Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.


* nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection (2016-05-24) 6 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 55414fa)

 Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature.

 Will merge to 'master'.

 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 67dac59)
 + send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'master'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option
 - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
 - branch, tag: use porcelain output

 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.


* dt/index-helper (2016-06-27) 21 commits

 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and
 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Expecting a reroll.

* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits
 - index-pack: --clone-bundle option
 - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle
 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

 Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 - pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec

 An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant
 'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that
 finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which
 ends up removing everything.  Start warning about this use of an
 empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a
 more explicit '.' for that instead.

 The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and
 eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading
 the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature.

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the

 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.

 - format-patch: avoid freopen()
 - format-patch: explicitly switch off color when writing to files

 - graph: respect the diffopt.file setting
 - line-log: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute

 The commands in the "log/diff" family had an FILE* pointer in the
 data structure they pass around for a long time, but some codepaths
 used to always write to the standard output.  As a preparatory step
 to make "git format-patch" available to the internal callers, these
 codepaths have been updated to consistently write into that FILE*
 instead.

 - local_tzoffset: detect errors from tm_to_time_t
 - t0006: test various date formats
 - t0006: rename test-date's "show" to "relative"

 The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
 prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
 bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
 +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
 of aborting.

 - verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).

 - repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
 - repack: add --keep-unreachable option
 - repack: document --unpack-unreachable option

 "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
 loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
 This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects

 It is a common mistake to say "git blame --reverse OLD path",
 expecting that the command line is dwimmed as if asking how lines
 in path in an old revision OLD have survived up to the current
 commit.

 Any supporters?  Otherwise will drop.


* km/fetch-do-not-free-remote-name (2016-06-14) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 4bc34c4)
 + builtin/fetch.c: don't free remote->name after fetch

 The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to
 be fetched in "git fetch" was screwy, which has been cleaned up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* nd/shallow-deepen (2016-06-13) 27 commits
 - fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
 - upload-pack: add get_reachable_list()
 - upload-pack: split check_unreachable() in two, prep for get_reachable_list()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth excluding a ref
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions
 - refs: add expand_ref()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth since a specific date
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary based on time with --shallow-since
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-since
 - upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on time
 - shallow.c: implement a generic shallow boundary finder based on rev-list
 - fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
 - fetch-pack.c: mark strings for translating
 - fetch-pack: use a common function for verbose printing
 - fetch-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move rev-list code out of check_non_tip()
 - upload-pack: make check_non_tip() clean things up on error
 - upload-pack: tighten number parsing at "deepen" lines
 - upload-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"
 - upload-pack: move "shallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Rerolled.
 Needs review.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.


* jk/send-pack-stdio (2016-06-10) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 2cfb0ff)
 + write_or_die: remove the unused write_or_whine() function

 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute
 subsystem implementation.

 Needs to be redone.

 - delete_refs(): add a flags argument
 - refs: use name "prefix" consistently
 - do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
 - refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
 has been revamped.

 Rebased on top of mh/split-under-lock.


* ew/mboxrd-format-am (2016-06-06) 3 commits
 - am: support --patch-format=mboxrd
 - mailsplit: support unescaping mboxrd messages
 - pretty: support "mboxrd" output format

 Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
 happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
 ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* mh/connect (2016-06-06) 10 commits

* dk/blame-move-no-reason-for-1-line-context (2016-05-29) 1 commit
 - blame: require 0 context lines while finding moved lines with -M

 "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 We may want to squash a test or two to this commit.  Volunteers?


* nd/worktree-lock (2016-06-13) 6 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.


* jk/upload-pack-hook (2016-06-02) 7 commits
 - upload-pack: provide a hook for running pack-objects
 - t1308: do not get fooled by symbolic links to the source tree

 - config: return configset value for current_config_ functions
 - config: set up config_source for command-line config
 - git_config_parse_parameter: refactor cleanup code
 - git_config_with_options: drop "found" counting

 Allow a custom "git upload-pack" replacement to respond to
 "fetch/clone" request.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* sb/submodule-default-paths (2016-06-20) 5 commits
 - completion: clone can recurse into submodules
 - clone: add --init-submodule=<pathspec> switch
 - submodule update: add `--init-default-path` switch
 - Merge branch 'sb/pathspec-label' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 - Merge branch 'jc/attr' into sb/submodule-default-paths
 (this branch uses jc/attr and sb/pathspec-label; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 Allow specifying the set of submodules the user is interested in on
 the command line of "git clone" that clones the superproject.


* ep/http-curl-trace (2016-05-24) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at c290515)
 + imap-send.c: introduce the GIT_TRACE_CURL enviroment variable
 + http.c: implement the GIT_TRACE_CURL environment variable

 HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
 trace.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jc/attr (2016-05-25) 18 commits
 - attr: support quoting pathname patterns in C style

 - commit.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
 (this branch is used by jc/attr-more, sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
 optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.

 I wanted to polish this topic further to make the attribute
 subsystem thread-ready, but because other topics depend on this
 topic and they do not (yet) need it to be thread-ready, let's merge
 this early part together with the dependent topics to 'next', and
 back-burner the threading enhancement to another day.


* pb/bisect (2016-06-27) 9 commits
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_write` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `is_expected_rev` & `check_expected_revs` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_reset` shell function in C
 - wrapper: move is_empty_file() and rename it as is_empty_or_missing_file()
 - t6030: explicitly test for bisection cleanup
 - bisect--helper: `bisect_clean_state` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: `write_terms` shell function in C
 - bisect: rewrite `check_term_format` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: use OPT_CMDMODE instead of OPT_BOOL

 GSoC "bisect" topic.


* sb/pathspec-label (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 - pathspec: allow escaped query values
 - pathspec: allow querying for attributes
 - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop
 - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 - Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.


* nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection (2016-05-24) 6 commits
 - worktree: simplify prefixing paths
 - worktree: avoid 0{40}, too many zeroes, hard to read
 - worktree.c: use is_dot_or_dotdot()
 - git-worktree.txt: keep subcommand listing in alphabetical order
 - worktree.c: rewrite mark_current_worktree() to avoid strbuf
 - completion: support git-worktree
 (this branch is used by nd/worktree-lock.)

 Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 - remove_dir_recursively(): add docstring
 - safe_create_leading_directories(): improve docstring
 - read_raw_ref(): don't get confused by an empty directory
 - commit_ref(): if there is an empty dir in the way, delete it
 - t1404: demonstrate a bug resolving references
 (this branch is used by mh/ref-iterators, mh/ref-store and mh/update-ref-errors.)

 Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
 backend series can land.

 Replaced with a rerolled version.


* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
 - send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'next'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option
 - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
 - branch, tag: use porcelain output
 - ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output
 - ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms
 - ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()
 - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier
 - ref-filter: add support for %(upstream:track,nobracket)
 - ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid upstreams
 - ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item()
 - ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c
 - ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length
 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.


* dt/index-helper (2016-06-27) 21 commits
 - unix-socket.c: add stub implementation when unix sockets are not supported
 - index-helper: indexhelper.exitafter config
 - trace: measure where the time is spent in the index-heavy operations
 - index-helper: optionally automatically run
 - index-helper: autorun mode
 - index-helper: don't run if already running
 - index-helper: kill mode
 - watchman: add a config option to enable the extension
 - unpack-trees: preserve index extensions
 - update-index: enable/disable watchman support
 - index-helper: use watchman to avoid refreshing index with lstat()
 - watchman: support watchman to reduce index refresh cost
 - read-cache: add watchman 'WAMA' extension
 - index-helper: log warnings
 - index-helper: add --detach
 - daemonize(): set a flag before exiting the main process

 - index-helper: new daemon for caching index and related stuff
 - pkt-line: add gentle version of packet_write
 - read-cache: allow to keep mmap'd memory after reading
 - read-cache.c: fix constness of verify_hdr()

 A new "index-helper" daemon has been introduced to give newly
 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and
 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Expecting a reroll.
 ($gmane/298331, $gmane/298319).


* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits
 - index-pack: --clone-bundle option
 - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle
 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

The first batch for this cycle has been merged to 'master', the tip
of 'next' has been rewound and rebuilt, while a few topics got
temporarily ejected from 'next'.

* ak/t7800-wo-readlink (2016-06-21) 1 commit
 - t7800: readlink may not be available

 One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
 been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
 command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).

 Will merge to 'next'.


* js/perf-on-apple (2016-06-21) 1 commit

* ao/p4-has-branch-prefix-fix (2016-06-22) 1 commit
 - git-p4: correct hasBranchPrefix verbose output

 A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
 report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
 been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
 paths that are _inside_.

 Will merge to 'next'.

* ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all (2016-06-22) 1 commit
 - pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec

 An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant
 'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that
 finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which
 ends up removing everything.  Start warning about this use of an
 empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a
 more explicit '.' for that instead.

 The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and
 eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading
 the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature.

 Will wait for further comments for a bit before merging to 'next'.


* jk/ansi-color (2016-06-23) 7 commits
 - color: support strike-through attribute
 - color: support "italic" attribute
 - color: allow "no-" for negating attributes
 - color: refactor parse_attr
 - add skip_prefix_mem helper
 - doc: refactor description of color format
 - color: fix max-size comment

 The output coloring scheme learned two new attributes, italic and
 strike, in addition to existing bold, reverse, etc.

 . WIPWIP
 . WIP: diff-b-m
 - diffcore-rename: allow easier debugging
 - diffcore-rename.c: add locate_rename_src()
 - diffcore-break: allow debugging

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a
 completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed
 file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from
 other place.

 The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately.
 Will discard.

* nd/icase (2016-06-23) 11 commits
 - grep.c: reuse "icase" variable
 - diffcore-pickaxe: support case insensitive match on non-ascii
 - diffcore-pickaxe: "share" regex error handling code
 - grep/pcre: support utf-8
 - gettext: add is_utf8_locale()
 - grep/pcre: prepare locale-dependent tables for icase matching
 - grep/icase: avoid kwsset when -F is specified
 - grep/icase: avoid kwsset on literal non-ascii strings
 - test-regex: expose full regcomp() to the command line
 - test-regex: isolate the bug test code
 - grep: break down an "if" stmt in preparation for next changes

 "git grep -i" has been taught to fold case in non-ascii locales
 correctly.

 Modulo minor possible nits, this round looked mostly sensible.


* mj/log-show-signature-conf (2016-06-22) 3 commits
 - log: add log.showSignature configuration variable
 - log: add "--no-show-signature" command line option
 - t4202: refactor test

 "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
 command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.

 The value of the first step is unclear.  The top two looked OK.


* em/newer-freebsd-shells-are-fine-with-returns (2016-06-17) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-22 at dbee33c)

 Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
 the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).

* jk/string-list-static-init (2016-06-13) 2 commits
 - use string_list initializer consistently
 - Merge branch 'jk/parseopt-string-list' into jk/string-list-static-init
 (this branch uses jk/parseopt-string-list.)

 Instead of taking advantage of a struct string_list that is
 allocated with all NULs happens to be STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP kind,
 initialize them explicitly as such, to document their behaviour
 better.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* mh/ref-store (2016-06-20) 38 commits
 - refs: implement iteration over only per-worktree refs
 - refs: make lock generic
 - refs: add method to rename refs
 - refs: add methods to init refs db
 - refs: make delete_refs() virtual
 - refs: add method for initial ref transaction commit

 - refs: reorder definitions
 - refs: add a transaction_commit() method

 - refs: create a base class "ref_store" for files_ref_store
 - refs: add a backend method structure
 - refs: rename struct ref_cache to files_ref_store
 - rename_ref_available(): add docstring
 - resolve_gitlink_ref(): eliminate temporary variable
 (this branch uses mh/ref-iterators and mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The ref-store abstraction was introduced to the refs API so that we
 can plug in different backends to store references.

 Rebased on top of mh/split-under-lock.


* mh/update-ref-errors (2016-06-20) 6 commits
 - lock_ref_for_update(): avoid a symref resolution
 - lock_ref_for_update(): make error handling more uniform
 - t1404: add more tests of update-ref error handling
 - t1404: document function test_update_rejected
 - t1404: remove "prefix" argument to test_update_rejected
 - t1404: rename file to t1404-update-ref-errors.sh
 (this branch uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/ref-iterators and mh/ref-store.)

 Error handling in the codepaths that updates refs has been
 improved.

* jh/clean-smudge-annex (2016-06-22) 10 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - use smudgeToFile filter in recursive merge
 - use smudgeToFile filter in git am
 - better recovery from failure of smudgeToFile filter
 - warn on unusable smudgeToFile/cleanFromFile config
 - use smudgeToFile in git checkout etc
 - use cleanFromFile in git add
 - add smudgeToFile and cleanFromFile filter configs
 - clarify %f documentation
 - Merge branch 'tb/convert-peek-in-index' into jh/clean-smudge-annex
 (this branch uses tb/convert-peek-in-index.)

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the
 whole contents via pipe, which is suboptimal for some
 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.


* lc/shell-default-value-noexpand (2016-06-19) 1 commit
 - sh-setup: enclose setting of ${VAR=default} in double-quotes

 Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
 to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* sb/clone-shallow-passthru (2016-06-20) 1 commit
 - clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodules
 (this branch is used by sb/t5614-modernize.)

 Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
 that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
 be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
 of the submodules are not prepared for.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* js/find-commit-subject-ignore-leading-blanks (2016-06-22) 2 commits
 - commit.c: make find_commit_subject() more robust
 - pretty: make the skip_blank_lines() function public

 A helper function that takes the contents of a commit object and
 finds its subject line did not ignore leading blank lines, as is
 commonly done by other codepaths.  Make it ignore leading blank
 lines to match.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* js/log-to-diffopt-file (2016-06-21) 9 commits
 - format-patch: use stdout directly
 - format-patch: avoid freopen()
 - format-patch: explicitly switch off color when writing to files
 - shortlog: support outputting to streams other than stdout
 - graph: respect the diffopt.file setting
 - line-log: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - Disallow diffopt.close_file when using the log_tree machinery
 - am: stop ignoring errors reported by log_tree_diff()

 The commands in the "log/diff" family had an optional FILE* pointer
 in the data structure they pass around for a long time, but some
 codepaths used to always write to the standard output.  As a
 preparatory step to make "git format-patch" available to the
 internal callers, these codepaths have been updated to consistently
 write into that FILE* instead.


* js/mingw-parameter-less-c-functions (2016-06-20) 1 commit
 - mingw: let the build succeed with DEVELOPER=1

 Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
 functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
 corrected.

 - merge-recursive: convert struct stage_data to use object_id
 - diff: rename struct diff_filespec's sha1_valid member
 - diff: convert struct diff_filespec to struct object_id
 - coccinelle: apply object_id Coccinelle transformations
 - contrib/coccinelle: add basic Coccinelle transforms

 Conversion from unsigned char sha1[20] to struct object_id
 continues.


* jk/tzoffset-fix (2016-06-20) 3 commits
 - local_tzoffset: detect errors from tm_to_time_t
 - t0006: test various date formats
 - t0006: rename test-date's "show" to "relative"

 The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
 prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
 bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
 +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
 of aborting.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* ap/git-svn-propset-doc (2016-06-15) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-22 at 5a34f7d)

 "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is
 documented now.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jk/add-i-diff-compact-heuristics (2016-06-16) 1 commit
 - add--interactive: respect diff.compactionHeuristic

 "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
 experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
 as "git diff" output.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jk/big-and-future-archive-tar (2016-06-21) 2 commits
 - archive-tar: write extended headers for far-future mtime
 - archive-tar: write extended headers for file sizes >= 8GB

 "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
 commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR
 format.

 Expecting a reroll.


* jk/gpg-interface-cleanup (2016-06-17) 7 commits
 - gpg-interface: check gpg signature creation status
 - sign_buffer: use pipe_command
 - verify_signed_buffer: use pipe_command
 - run-command: add pipe_command helper
 - verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object
 - verify_signed_buffer: drop pbuf variable
 - gpg-interface: use child_process.args

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).

 Will merge to 'next'.


* lf/sideband-returns-void (2016-06-16) 2 commits
 - upload-pack.c: make send_client_data() return void
 - sideband.c: make send_sideband() return void

 A small internal API cleanup.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* nd/graph-width-padded (2016-06-16) 2 commits
 - pretty.c: support <direction>|(<negative number>) forms
 - pretty: pass graph width to pretty formatting for use in '%>|(N)'

 "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
 relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
 draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
 also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
 to the right border.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* dn/gpg-doc (2016-06-16) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-22 at f467355)
 + Documentation: GPG capitalization

 The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
 referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jk/bisect-show-tree (2016-06-16) 1 commit
 - bisect: always call setup_revisions after init_revisions

 "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
 bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
 data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.

 Will merge to 'next'.

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-22 at c65c7c1)

 "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
 tree".

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jk/parseopt-string-list (2016-06-13) 3 commits
 - blame,shortlog: don't make local option variables static
 - interpret-trailers: don't duplicate option strings
 - parse_opt_string_list: stop allocating new strings
 (this branch is used by jk/string-list-static-init.)

 The command line argument parsing that uses OPT_STRING_LIST() often
 made a copy of the argv[] element, which was unnecessary.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jk/repack-keep-unreachable (2016-06-14) 3 commits
 - repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
 - repack: add --keep-unreachable option
 - repack: document --unpack-unreachable option

 "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
 loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
 This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
 (e.g. "gc --auto").

 Will merge to 'next'.


* lf/recv-sideband-cleanup (2016-06-13) 1 commit
 - sideband.c: refactor recv_sideband()

 Code simplification.  It however loses the atomicity of the output
 9ac13ec9 (atomic write for sideband remote messages, 2006-10-11)
 tried to add to an once-much-simpler codebase.

 Expecting a reroll.

* sb/submodule-clone-retry (2016-06-13) 2 commits
 - submodule update: continue when a clone fails
 - submodule--helper: initial clone learns retry logic

 "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
 eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
 submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jc/blame-reverse (2016-06-14) 2 commits
 - blame: dwim "blame --reverse OLD" as "blame --reverse OLD.."
 - blame: improve diagnosis for "--reverse NEW"

 It is a common mistake to say "git blame --reverse OLD path",
 expecting that the command line is dwimmed as if asking how lines
 in path in an old revision OLD have survived up to the current
 commit.

 Any supporters?  Otherwise will drop.

 - fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
 - upload-pack: add get_reachable_list()

 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth excluding a ref
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions
 - refs: add expand_ref()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth since a specific date
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary based on time with --shallow-since
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-since
 - upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on time
 - shallow.c: implement a generic shallow boundary finder based on rev-list
 - fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
 - fetch-pack.c: mark strings for translating
 - fetch-pack: use a common function for verbose printing
 - fetch-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move rev-list code out of check_non_tip()
 - upload-pack: make check_non_tip() clean things up on error
 - upload-pack: tighten number parsing at "deepen" lines
 - upload-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"
 - upload-pack: move "shallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Rerolled.
 Needs review.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.

 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)

 "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch

* dk/blame-move-no-reason-for-1-line-context (2016-05-29) 1 commit
 - blame: require 0 context lines while finding moved lines with -M

 "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 We may want to squash a test or two to this commit.  Volunteers?


* nd/worktree-lock (2016-06-13) 6 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.

 - config: return configset value for current_config_ functions
 - config: set up config_source for command-line config

 - git_config_with_options: drop "found" counting

 Allow a custom "git upload-pack" replacement to respond to
 "fetch/clone" request.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 (this branch uses jc/attr and sb/pathspec-label; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 Allow specifying the set of submodules the user is interested in on
 the command line of "git clone" that clones the superproject.


* ep/http-curl-trace (2016-05-24) 2 commits
 - imap-send.c: introduce the GIT_TRACE_CURL enviroment variable
 - http.c: implement the GIT_TRACE_CURL environment variable

 HTTP transport gained an option to produce more detailed debugging
 trace.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jc/attr (2016-05-25) 18 commits

 - attr.c: update a stale comment on "struct match_attr"
 - attr.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
 - commit.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
 (this branch is used by jc/attr-more, sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
 optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.

 I wanted to polish this topic further to make the attribute
 subsystem thread-ready, but because other topics depend on this
 topic and they do not (yet) need it to be thread-ready, let's merge
 this early part together with the dependent topics to 'next', and
 back-burner the threading enhancement to another day.

 Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* pb/bisect (2016-05-24) 3 commits
 - bisect--helper: `write_terms` shell function in C
 - bisect: rewrite `check_term_format` shell function in C
 - bisect--helper: use OPT_CMDMODE instead of OPT_BOOL

 Beginning of GSoC "git bisect" project.

 I know another topic is getting rerolled many times on top of this;
 are people happy with these three patches?  If so, will merge to
 'next'.


* sb/pathspec-label (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 - pathspec: allow escaped query values
 - pathspec: allow querying for attributes
 - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop
 - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 - Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.


* nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection (2016-05-24) 6 commits
 - worktree: simplify prefixing paths
 - worktree: avoid 0{40}, too many zeroes, hard to read
 - worktree.c: use is_dot_or_dotdot()
 - git-worktree.txt: keep subcommand listing in alphabetical order
 - worktree.c: rewrite mark_current_worktree() to avoid strbuf
 - completion: support git-worktree
 (this branch is used by nd/worktree-lock.)

 Further preparatory clean-up for "worktree" feature.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
 backend series can land.

 Replaced with a rerolled version.


* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
 - send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'next'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option
 - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
 - branch, tag: use porcelain output
 - ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output
 - ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms
 - ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()
 - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier

 - ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c
 - ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length
 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.


* dt/index-helper (2016-05-20) 20 commits
 - index-helper: indexhelper.exitafter config
 - trace: measure where the time is spent in the index-heavy operations
 - index-helper: optionally automatically run
 - index-helper: autorun mode
 - index-helper: don't run if already running
 - index-helper: kill mode
 - watchman: add a config option to enable the extension
 - unpack-trees: preserve index extensions
 - update-index: enable/disable watchman support
 - index-helper: use watchman to avoid refreshing index with lstat()
 - watchman: support watchman to reduce index refresh cost

 - index-helper: new daemon for caching index and related stuff
 - pkt-line: add gentle version of packet_write
 - read-cache: allow to keep mmap'd memory after reading
 - read-cache.c: fix constness of verify_hdr()

 A new "index-helper" daemon has been introduced to give newly
 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and
 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Belated review comments still trickling in.
 Will hold.
 ($gmane/295106).


* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits
 - index-pack: --clone-bundle option
 - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle
 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

The first batch for this cycle has been merged to 'master', the tip
of 'next' has been rewound and rebuilt, while a few topics are
temporarily ejected from 'next'.

You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

 "git pull --rebase --verify-signature" learned to warn the user
 that "--verify-signature" is a no-op when rebasing.

 "git upload-pack" command has been updated to use the parse-options
 API.


* et/pretty-format-c-auto (2016-05-27) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at 1e9c920)
 + format_commit_message: honor `color=auto` for `%C(auto)`

 The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format
 string.  This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
 --no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to
 a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as
 "auto".


* ew/daemon-socket-keepalive (2016-05-25) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at c32acf1)
 + daemon: enable SO_KEEPALIVE for all sockets

 When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
 connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
 for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
 been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.


* ew/fast-import-unpack-limit (2016-05-29) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-29 at af32aba)
 + fast-import: invalidate pack_id references after loosening
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-11 at ffd4efb)
 + fast-import: implement unpack limit

 "git fast-import" learned the same performance trick to avoid
 creating too small a packfile as "git fetch" and "git push" have,
 using *.unpackLimit configuration.


* jc/clear-pathspec (2016-06-02) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 9e7e291)
 + pathspec: rename free_pathspec() to clear_pathspec()

 We usually call a function that clears the contents a data
 structure X without freeing the structure itself clear_X(), and
 call a function that does clear_X() and also frees it free_X().
 free_pathspec() function has been renamed to clear_pathspec()
 to avoid confusion.


* jg/dash-is-last-branch-in-worktree-add (2016-05-31) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-02 at 3959ef6)
 + worktree: allow "-" short-hand for @{-1} in add command

 "git worktree add" learned that '-' can be used as a short-hand for
 "@{-1}", the previous branch.


* jk/rev-list-count-with-bitmap (2016-06-03) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at dd9b30f)
 + rev-list: disable bitmaps when "-n" is used with listing objects
 + rev-list: "adjust" results of "--count --use-bitmap-index -n"

 "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
 option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
 bitmap index.


* rs/xdiff-hunk-with-func-line (2016-06-09) 9 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-10 at 9ff9ba8)

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-02 at 0c2e335)
 + grep: -W: don't extend context to trailing empty lines
 + t7810: add test for grep -W and trailing empty context lines
 + xdiff: don't trim common tail with -W
 + xdiff: -W: don't include common trailing empty lines in context
 + xdiff: ignore empty lines before added functions with -W
 + xdiff: handle appended chunks better with -W
 + xdiff: factor out match_func_rec()
 + t4051: rewrite, add more tests

 "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited
 by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire
 file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file,
 which has been fixed.


* sb/submodule-misc-cleanups (2016-05-25) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at 0d07b9c)

 An upstream project can make a recommendation to shallowly clone
 some submodules in the .gitmodules file it ships.

 - refs: create a base class "ref_store" for files_ref_store
 - refs: add a backend method structure
 - refs: rename struct ref_cache to files_ref_store
 - rename_ref_available(): add docstring
 - resolve_gitlink_ref(): eliminate temporary variable
 (this branch uses mh/ref-iterators and mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The ref-store abstraction was introduced to the refs API so that we
 can plug in different backends to store references.

 Rebased on top of mh/split-under-lock.


* mh/update-ref-errors (2016-06-20) 6 commits
 - lock_ref_for_update(): avoid a symref resolution
 - lock_ref_for_update(): make error handling more uniform
 - t1404: add more tests of update-ref error handling
 - t1404: document function test_update_rejected
 - t1404: remove "prefix" argument to test_update_rejected
 - t1404: rename file to t1404-update-ref-errors.sh
 (this branch uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/ref-iterators and mh/ref-store.)

 Error handling in the codepaths that updates refs has been
 improved.

 Rebased on top of mh/split-under-lock.


* jh/clean-smudge-annex (2016-06-17) 5 commits
 - warn on unusable smudgeToFile/cleanFromFile config
 - use smudgeToFile in git checkout etc
 - use cleanFromFile in git add
 - add smudgeToFile and cleanFromFile filter configs
 - clarify %f documentation

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the
 whole contents via pipe, which is suboptimal for some
 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.

 This unfortunately does not build when merged to 'pu', as there are
 interactions with other topic(s).


* lc/shell-default-value-noexpand (2016-06-19) 1 commit

 to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* sb/clone-shallow-passthru (2016-06-20) 1 commit
 - clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodules

 Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
 that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
 be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
 of the submodules are not prepared for.

 Will merge to 'next'.

* js/log-diff-to-non-stdout (2016-06-20) 8 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - format-patch: use stdout directly
 - format-patch: avoid freopen()
 - format-patch: explicitly switch off color when writing to files
 - shortlog: support outputting to streams other than stdout
 - graph: respect the diffopt.file setting
 - line-log: respect diffopt's configured output file stream
 - log-tree: respect diffopt's configured output file stream

 The commands in the "log/diff" family had an optional FILE* pointer
 in the data structure they pass around for a long time, but some
 codepaths used to always write to the standard output.  As a
 preparatory step to make "git format-patch" available to the
 internal callers, these codepaths have been updated to consistently
 write into that FILE* instead.


* js/mingw-parameter-less-c-functions (2016-06-20) 1 commit
 - mingw: let the build succeed with DEVELOPER=1

 Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C
 functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
 corrected.

 Conversion from unsigned char sha1[20] to struct object_id
 continues.


* jk/tzoffset-fix (2016-06-20) 3 commits
 - local_tzoffset: detect errors from tm_to_time_t
 - t0006: test various date formats
 - t0006: rename test-date's "show" to "relative"

 The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
 prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
 bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
 +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
 of aborting.

* mj/log-show-signature-conf (2016-06-06) 2 commits
 - log: "--no-show-signature" commmand-line option
 - log: add "log.showsignature" configuration variable

 "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
 command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.

 The order of the commits in the topic need to be reversed.
 Expecting a reroll.


* sb/bisect (2016-04-15) 22 commits
 - SQUASH???
 - bisect: get back halfway shortcut
 - bisect: compute best bisection in compute_relevant_weights()
 - bisect: use a bottom-up traversal to find relevant weights
 - bisect: prepare for different algorithms based on find_all
 - bisect: rename count_distance() to compute_weight()
 - bisect: make total number of commits global
 - bisect: introduce distance_direction()
 - bisect: extract get_distance() function from code duplication
 - bisect: use commit instead of commit list as arguments when appropriate
 - bisect: replace clear_distance() by unique markers
 - bisect: use struct node_data array instead of int array
 - bisect: get rid of recursion in count_distance()
 - bisect: make algorithm behavior independent of DEBUG_BISECT
 - bisect: make bisect compile if DEBUG_BISECT is set
 - bisect: plug the biggest memory leak
 - bisect: add test for the bisect algorithm
 - t6030: generalize test to not rely on current implementation
 - t: use test_cmp_rev() where appropriate
 - t/test-lib-functions.sh: generalize test_cmp_rev
 - bisect: allow 'bisect run' if no good commit is known
 - bisect: write about `bisect next` in documentation

 The internal algorithm used in "git bisect" to find the next commit
 to check has been optimized greatly.

 Expecting a reroll.

 - diffcore-rename: allow easier debugging
 - diffcore-rename.c: add locate_rename_src()
 - diffcore-break: allow debugging

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a
 completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed
 file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from
 other place.

 The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately.
 Will discard.

 experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
 as "git diff" output.

 - archive-tar: write extended headers for far-future mtime

 "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
 commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR

 - gpg-interface: check gpg signature creation status
 - sign_buffer: use pipe_command
 - verify_signed_buffer: use pipe_command
 - run-command: add pipe_command helper
 - verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object
 - verify_signed_buffer: drop pbuf variable
 - gpg-interface: use child_process.args

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).

 "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
 relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
 draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
 also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative

* jk/bisect-show-tree (2016-06-16) 1 commit
 - bisect: always call setup_revisions after init_revisions

 "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when

 - repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
 - repack: add --keep-unreachable option

 "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
 loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.

 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Rerolled.

* dk/blame-move-no-reason-for-1-line-context (2016-05-29) 1 commit
 - blame: require 0 context lines while finding moved lines with -M

 "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 We may want to squash a test or two to this commit.  Volunteers?


* nd/worktree-lock (2016-06-13) 6 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
 optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.

 I wanted to polish this topic further to make the attribute
 subsystem thread-ready, but because other topics depend on this
 topic and they do not (yet) need it to be thread-ready, let's merge
 this early part together with the dependent topics to 'next', and
 back-burner the threading enhancement to another day.

 Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* pb/bisect (2016-05-24) 3 commits
 - bisect--helper: `write_terms` shell function in C

 Beginning of GSoC "git bisect" project.

 I know another topic is getting rerolled many times on top of this;
 are people happy with these three patches?  If so, will merge to
 'next'.


* sb/pathspec-label (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 - pathspec: allow escaped query values
 - pathspec: allow querying for attributes
 - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop
 - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 - Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.

 - worktree.c: rewrite mark_current_worktree() to avoid strbuf

* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
 - send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'next'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits

 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.

 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Belated review comments still trickling in.
 Will hold.

* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits

 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with

'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

The tip of 'next' will be rewound and rebuilt, soon after the topics

happen RSN.

 - warn on unusable smudgeToFile/cleanFromFile config
 - use smudgeToFile in git checkout etc
 - use cleanFromFile in git add
 - add smudgeToFile and cleanFromFile filter configs
 - clarify %f documentation

 The interface to "clean/smudge" filters require Git to feed the
 whole contents via pipe, which is suboptimal for some
 applications.  "cleanFromFile/smudgeToFile" commands are the moral
 equilvalents for these filters but they interact with the files on
 the filesystem directly.

 This unfortunately does not build when merged to 'pu', as there are
 interactions with other topic(s).

 experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
 as "git diff" output.

* jk/big-and-future-archive-tar (2016-06-17) 2 commits
 - archive-tar: write extended headers for far-future mtime

 "git archive" learned to handle files that are larger than 8GB and
 commits far in the future than expressible by the traditional US-TAR
 format.

* jk/gpg-interface-cleanup (2016-06-17) 7 commits
 - gpg-interface: check gpg signature creation status
 - sign_buffer: use pipe_command
 - verify_signed_buffer: use pipe_command
 - run-command: add pipe_command helper
 - verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object
 - verify_signed_buffer: drop pbuf variable
 - gpg-interface: use child_process.args

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).

* nd/graph-width-padded (2016-06-16) 2 commits
 - pretty.c: support <direction>|(<negative number>) forms
 - pretty: pass graph width to pretty formatting for use in '%>|(N)'

 "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
 relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
 draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
 also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
 to the right border.

* jk/bisect-show-tree (2016-06-16) 1 commit
 - bisect: always call setup_revisions after init_revisions

 "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
 bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
 data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 - blame,shortlog: don't make local option variables static
 - interpret-trailers: don't duplicate option strings
 - parse_opt_string_list: stop allocating new strings
 (this branch is used by jk/string-list-static-init.)

 The command line argument parsing that uses OPT_STRING_LIST() often
 made a copy of the argv[] element, which was unnecessary.

* jk/repack-keep-unreachable (2016-06-14) 3 commits
 - repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
 - repack: add --keep-unreachable option
 - repack: document --unpack-unreachable option

 "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
 loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
 This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
 (e.g. "gc --auto").

 - submodule update: continue when a clone fails
 - submodule--helper: initial clone learns retry logic
 (this branch uses sb/submodule-recommend-shallowness.)

 "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
 eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
 submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

* jc/blame-reverse (2016-06-14) 2 commits
 - blame: dwim "blame --reverse OLD" as "blame --reverse OLD.."
 - blame: improve diagnosis for "--reverse NEW"

 It is a common mistake to say "git blame --reverse OLD path",
 expecting that the command line is dwimmed as if asking how lines
 in path in an old revision OLD have survived up to the current

 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Rerolled.
 Needs review.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.

 Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 Will hold.

 + Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-06-03

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.

 Will eject from 'next'.
 The jc/attr topic that this depends on needs to be redone.

 - send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing

 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits

 - bundle: plug resource leak

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of

 warning message since v2.5.0.

From: Junio C Hamano @ 2016-06-17  3:20 UTC (permalink / raw
  To: git
Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

Let's start a new cycle by rewinding the tip of 'next' soonish.  I
expect I'd eject a few premature topics out of 'next' while doing
so.  There are many topics that need input from the list (look for
'?' in this document) to decide either to drop them or to move them
forward.

You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

 - verify_signed_buffer: use pipe_command
 - run-command: add pipe_command helper
 - verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object
 - verify_signed_buffer: drop pbuf variable
 - gpg-interface: use child_process.args

 A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
 sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
 the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
 which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.

 The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
 updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
 errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).

 - pretty.c: support <direction>|(<negative number>) forms
 - pretty: pass graph width to pretty formatting for use in '%>|(N)'

 "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
 relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
 draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
 also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
 to the right border.

 data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.

 - upload-pack: move "shallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Rerolled.
 Needs review.  What this topic attempts to achieve is worthwhile, I
 would think.

 We usually call a function that clears the contents a data

 call a function that does clear_X() and also frees it free_X().
 free_pathspec() function has been renamed to clear_pathspec()
 to avoid confusion.

* nd/worktree-lock (2016-06-13) 6 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix

 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Is everybody happy with this version?
 If so, will merge to 'next'.

 + format_commit_message: honor `color=auto` for `%C(auto)`

 %C(auto) in a custom format string that commands in `git log`
 family takes unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
 --no-color or --color=auto with output not connected to a tty;
 this was corrected to make the format truly behave as "auto".

 When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
 connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
 for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
 been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 Will hold.

 + pathspec: disable preload-index when attribute pathspec magic is in use
 + pathspec: allow escaped query values
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at e72b604)

 + pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 + Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.

 - send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Will merge to 'next'.
 Perhaps people will enhance it more once it gains more visibility.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option
 - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs
 - branch, tag: use porcelain output
 - ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output
 - ref-filter: add `:dir` and `:base` options for ref printing atoms
 - ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: introduce symref_atom_parser() and refname_atom_parser()
 - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal()
 - ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier
 - ref-filter: add support for %(upstream:track,nobracket)
 - ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid upstreams
 - ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item()
 - ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c
 - ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length
 - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>)
 - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value'
 - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 This also really needs review.


* dt/index-helper (2016-05-20) 20 commits
 - index-helper: indexhelper.exitafter config
 - trace: measure where the time is spent in the index-heavy operations
 - index-helper: optionally automatically run
 - index-helper: autorun mode
 - index-helper: don't run if already running
 - index-helper: kill mode
 - watchman: add a config option to enable the extension
 - unpack-trees: preserve index extensions
 - update-index: enable/disable watchman support
 - index-helper: use watchman to avoid refreshing index with lstat()
 - watchman: support watchman to reduce index refresh cost
 - read-cache: add watchman 'WAMA' extension
 - index-helper: log warnings
 - index-helper: add --detach
 - daemonize(): set a flag before exiting the main process
 - index-helper: add --strict
 - index-helper: new daemon for caching index and related stuff
 - pkt-line: add gentle version of packet_write
 - read-cache: allow to keep mmap'd memory after reading
 - read-cache.c: fix constness of verify_hdr()

 A new "index-helper" daemon has been introduced to give newly
 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and
 optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
 refresh cost.

 Are people happy with this version?  If so will merge to 'next'.

* jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits
 - index-pack: --clone-bundle option
 - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle
 - bundle v3: the beginning
 - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header
 - bundle: plug resource leak
 - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle

 The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
 ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
 network to CDN.

 While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and
 build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a
 bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new
 file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of
 time.  Comments?


* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
 - merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

* js/am-3-merge-recursive-direct (2015-10-12) 2 commits
 . am: make a direct call to merge_recursive
 . merge_recursive_options: introduce the "gently" flag

 The merge_recursive_generic() function has been made a bit safer to
 call from inside a process.  "git am -3" was taught to make a direct
 call to the function when falling back to three-way merge.

 Being able to make a direct call would be good in general, but as a
 performance thing, the change needs to be backed up by numbers.

 I haven't gone through the "gently" change with fine toothed comb;
 I can see that the change avoids calling die(), but I haven't made
 sure that the program states (e.g. what's in the in-core index) are
 adjusted sensibly when it returns to the caller instead of dying,
 or the codepaths that used to die() are free of resource leaks.
 The original code certainly did not care the program states at the
 point of dying exactly because it knew it is going to exit, but now
 they have to care, and they need to be audited.

 Has a lot of conflict when merged to 'pu' these days, so let's
 eject it from our tree for now.

 Will discard.

* nd/i-t-a-commitable (2016-06-06) 3 commits
 . commit: don't count i-t-a entries when checking if the new commit is empty
 . Resurrect "diff-lib.c: adjust position of i-t-a entries in diff"
 . diff.h: extend "flags" field to 64 bits because we're out of bits

 "rm .git/index && git add -N * && git commit" allows you to create
 an empty commit without --allow-empty; attempt to forbid it.

* jc/merge-impossible-no-commit (2016-04-26) 2 commits
 . merge: warn --no-commit merge when no new commit is created
 . merge: do not contaminate option_commit with --squash

 "git merge --no-commit" silently succeeded when there is no need to
 create any commit, either when you are more recent than the commit
 you tried to merge, or you can fast-forward to the commit you tried
 to merge.  The command gives a warning message in such cases.

 Just tying loose ends in a discussion.  Unless somebody else
 champions this topic, I'll drop it.

 Will discard.


* bc/cocci-object-id (2016-06-06) 8 commits

 . merge-recursive: convert struct merge_file_info to object_id
 . merge-recursive: convert struct stage_data to use object_id
 . Rename struct diff_filespec's sha1_valid member.
 . Convert struct diff_filespec to struct object_id
 . Apply standard object_id Coccinelle transformations.
 . Add basic Coccinelle transforms.

 Move from "unsigned char [20]" to "struct object_id" continues,
 with help from an automated tool.

* az/p4-bare-no-rebase (2016-02-19) 1 commit
 - git-p4.py: Don't try to rebase on submit from bare repository

 "git p4 submit" attempts to do a rebase, which would fail if done
 in a bare repository.  Not doing this rebase would paper over the
 failure, which is what this patch does, but it is unclear what the
 side effect of not rebasing is.

 Retracted.

From: Junio C Hamano @ 2016-06-14 22:08 UTC (permalink / raw
  To: git
Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

Git 2.9 has been tagged.  Let's wait for a few days to clean up
possible fallout and then start a new cycle by rewinding the tip of
'next'.  I expect I'd eject a few premature topics out of 'next'
while doing so.

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"]

* jc/t2300-setup (2016-06-01) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 20f7f83)
 + t2300: run git-sh-setup in an environment that better mimics the real life
 (this branch is used by va/i18n-even-more.)

 A test fix.


* jk/diff-compact-heuristic (2016-06-10) 1 commit
 - diff: disable compaction heuristic for now

 It turns out that the earlier effort to update the heuristics may
 want to use a bit more time to mature.  Turn it off by default.


* jk/shell-portability (2016-06-01) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 5de784e)
 + t5500 & t7403: lose bash-ism "local"
 + test-lib: add in-shell "env" replacement

 test fixes.

--------------------------------------------------
[New Topics]

* lv/status-say-working-tree-not-directory (2016-06-09) 1 commit
 - Use "working tree" instead of "working directory" for git status

 "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
 tree".

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jk/parseopt-string-list (2016-06-13) 3 commits
 - blame,shortlog: don't make local option variables static
 - interpret-trailers: don't duplicate option strings
 - parse_opt_string_list: stop allocating new strings
 (this branch is used by jk/string-list-static-init.)

 The command line argument parsing that uses OPT_STRING_LIST() often
 made a copy of the argv[] element, which was unnecessary.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jk/repack-keep-unreachable (2016-06-14) 3 commits
 - repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
 - repack: add --keep-unreachable option
 - repack: document --unpack-unreachable option

 "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
 loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
 This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
 (e.g. "gc --auto").

 Will merge to 'next'.


* lf/recv-sideband-cleanup (2016-06-13) 1 commit
 - sideband.c: refactor recv_sideband()

 Code simplification.  It however loses the atomicity of the output
 9ac13ec9 (atomic write for sideband remote messages, 2006-10-11)
 tried to add to an once-much-simpler codebase.

 Expecting a reroll.


* nd/test-lib-httpd-show-error-log-in-verbose (2016-06-13) 1 commit
 - lib-httpd.sh: print error.log on error

 Debugging aid.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* pc/occurred (2016-06-10) 2 commits
 - config.c: fix misspelt "occurred" in an error message
 - refs.h: fix misspelt "occurred" in a comment

 Will merge to 'next'.


* sb/submodule-clone-retry (2016-06-13) 2 commits
 - submodule update: continue when a clone fails
 - submodule--helper: initial clone learns retry logic
 (this branch uses sb/submodule-recommend-shallowness.)

 "git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
 eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
 submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.


* jc/blame-reverse (2016-06-14) 2 commits
 - blame: dwim "blame --reverse OLD" as "blame --reverse OLD.."
 - blame: improve diagnosis for "--reverse NEW"


* jc/deref-tag (2016-06-14) 1 commit
 - blame, line-log: do not loop around deref_tag()

 Code clean-up.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jk/fetch-prune-doc (2016-06-14) 1 commit
 - fetch: document that pruning happens before fetching

 Will merge to 'next'.


* km/fetch-do-not-free-remote-name (2016-06-14) 1 commit
 - builtin/fetch.c: don't free remote->name after fetch

 Will merge to 'next'.


* nb/gnome-keyring-build (2016-06-14) 1 commit
 - gnome-keyring: Don't hard-code pkg-config executable

 Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/)

 Will merge to 'next'.


* pb/strbuf-read-file-doc (2016-06-14) 1 commit
 - strbuf: describe the return value of strbuf_read_file

 Will merge to 'next'.

 - bisect: use a bottom-up traversal to find relevant weights
 - bisect: prepare for different algorithms based on find_all
 - bisect: rename count_distance() to compute_weight()
 - bisect: make total number of commits global
 - bisect: introduce distance_direction()
 - bisect: extract get_distance() function from code duplication
 - bisect: use commit instead of commit list as arguments when appropriate
 - bisect: replace clear_distance() by unique markers
 - bisect: use struct node_data array instead of int array
 - bisect: get rid of recursion in count_distance()
 - bisect: make algorithm behavior independent of DEBUG_BISECT
 - bisect: make bisect compile if DEBUG_BISECT is set
 - bisect: plug the biggest memory leak
 - bisect: add test for the bisect algorithm
 - t6030: generalize test to not rely on current implementation
 - t: use test_cmp_rev() where appropriate
 - t/test-lib-functions.sh: generalize test_cmp_rev
 - bisect: allow 'bisect run' if no good commit is known
 - bisect: write about `bisect next` in documentation

 The internal algorithm used in "git bisect" to find the next commit
 to check has been optimized greatly.

 Expecting a reroll.

* az/p4-bare-no-rebase (2016-02-19) 1 commit
 - git-p4.py: Don't try to rebase on submit from bare repository

 "git p4 submit" attempts to do a rebase, which would fail if done
 in a bare repository.  Not doing this rebase would paper over the
 failure, which is what this patch does, but it is unclear what the
 side effect of not rebasing is.

 Needs a better explanation.


* nd/icase (2016-02-15) 12 commits
 - grep.c: reuse "icase" variable
 - diffcore-pickaxe: support case insensitive match on non-ascii
 - diffcore-pickaxe: "share" regex error handling code
 - grep/pcre: support utf-8
 - gettext: add is_utf8_locale()
 - grep/pcre: prepare locale-dependent tables for icase matching
 - grep/icase: avoid kwsset when -F is specified
 - grep/icase: avoid kwsset on literal non-ascii strings
 - test-regex: expose full regcomp() to the command line
 - test-regex: isolate the bug test code
 - grep: break down an "if" stmt in preparation for next changes
 - grep: allow -F -i combination

 "git grep -i" has been taught to fold case in non-ascii locales.

 Needs review.
 ($gmane/286137)


* ec/annotate-deleted (2015-11-20) 1 commit
 - annotate: skip checking working tree if a revision is provided

 Usability fix for annotate-specific "<file> <rev>" syntax with deleted
 files.

 Waiting for review.


* dg/subtree-rebase-test (2016-01-19) 1 commit
 - contrib/subtree: Add a test for subtree rebase that loses commits

 Reviewed up to v5.
 Will be rerolled.
 ($gmane/284426)


* js/am-3-merge-recursive-direct (2015-10-12) 2 commits
 - am: make a direct call to merge_recursive
 - merge_recursive_options: introduce the "gently" flag

 The merge_recursive_generic() function has been made a bit safer to
 call from inside a process.  "git am -3" was taught to make a direct
 call to the function when falling back to three-way merge.

 Being able to make a direct call would be good in general, but as a
 performance thing, the change needs to be backed up by numbers.

 I haven't gone through the "gently" change with fine toothed comb;
 I can see that the change avoids calling die(), but I haven't made
 sure that the program states (e.g. what's in the in-core index) are
 adjusted sensibly when it returns to the caller instead of dying,
 or the codepaths that used to die() are free of resource leaks.
 The original code certainly did not care the program states at the
 point of dying exactly because it knew it is going to exit, but now
 they have to care, and they need to be audited.

 Will be rerolled.
 ($gmane/292205)


* dk/gc-more-wo-pack (2016-01-13) 4 commits
 - gc: clean garbage .bitmap files from pack dir
 - t5304: ensure non-garbage files are not deleted
 - t5304: test .bitmap garbage files
 - prepare_packed_git(): find more garbage

 Follow-on to dk/gc-idx-wo-pack topic, to clean up stale
 .bitmap and .keep files.

 Waiting for a reroll.
 ($gmane/284368).


* jc/diff-b-m (2015-02-23) 5 commits
 . WIPWIP
 . WIP: diff-b-m
 - diffcore-rename: allow easier debugging
 - diffcore-rename.c: add locate_rename_src()
 - diffcore-break: allow debugging

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a
 completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed
 file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from
 other place.

 The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately.
 Will discard.


* jc/merge-impossible-no-commit (2016-04-26) 2 commits
 - merge: warn --no-commit merge when no new commit is created
 - merge: do not contaminate option_commit with --squash

 "git merge --no-commit" silently succeeded when there is no need to
 create any commit, either when you are more recent than the commit
 you tried to merge, or you can fast-forward to the commit you tried
 to merge.  The command gives a warning message in such cases.

 Just tying loose ends in a discussion.  Unless somebody else
 champions this topic, I'll drop it.

 Will discard.

* nd/shallow-deepen (2016-06-13) 27 commits
 - fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
 - upload-pack: add get_reachable_list()
 - upload-pack: split check_unreachable() in two, prep for get_reachable_list()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth excluding a ref
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions
 - refs: add expand_ref()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth since a specific date
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary based on time with --shallow-since
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-since
 - upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on time
 - shallow.c: implement a generic shallow boundary finder based on rev-list
 - fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
 - fetch-pack.c: mark strings for translating
 - fetch-pack: use a common function for verbose printing
 - fetch-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move rev-list code out of check_non_tip()
 - upload-pack: make check_non_tip() clean things up on error
 - upload-pack: tighten number parsing at "deepen" lines
 - upload-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"
 - upload-pack: move "shallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Rerolled.


* jk/avoid-unbounded-alloca (2016-06-07) 1 commit
 - tree-diff: avoid alloca for large allocations

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jk/send-pack-stdio (2016-06-10) 2 commits

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 536102f)
 + userdiff: add built-in pattern for CSS

 Update the funcname definition to support css files.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.

 - attr.c: outline the future plans by heavily commenting
 - attr.c: always pass check[] to collect_some_attrs()
 - attr.c: introduce empty_attr_check_elems()
 - attr.c: correct ugly hack for git_all_attrs()
 - attr.c: rename a local variable check
 - fixup! d5ad6c13
 - attr.c: pass struct git_attr_check down the callchain
 - attr.c: add push_stack() helper
 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute
 subsystem implementation.


* jk/rev-list-count-with-bitmap (2016-06-03) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at dd9b30f)
 + rev-list: disable bitmaps when "-n" is used with listing objects
 + rev-list: "adjust" results of "--count --use-bitmap-index -n"

 "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
 option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
 bitmap index.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* mh/ref-iterators (2016-06-03) 13 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at c8e79dc)
 + for_each_reflog(): reimplement using iterators
 + dir_iterator: new API for iterating over a directory tree
 + for_each_reflog(): don't abort for bad references
 + do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iteration
 + refs: introduce an iterator interface
 + ref_resolves_to_object(): new function
 + entry_resolves_to_object(): rename function from ref_resolves_to_object()

 + remote rm: handle symbolic refs correctly
 + delete_refs(): add a flags argument
 + refs: use name "prefix" consistently
 + do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
 + refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords
 (this branch is used by mh/ref-store; uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
 has been revamped.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* ew/mboxrd-format-am (2016-06-06) 3 commits
 - am: support --patch-format=mboxrd
 - mailsplit: support unescaping mboxrd messages
 - pretty: support "mboxrd" output format

 Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
 happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
 ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.


* lf/receive-pack-auto-gc-to-client (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - receive-pack: send auto-gc output over sideband 2

 Allow messages that are generated by auto gc during "git push" on
 the receiving end to be explicitly passed back to the sending end
 over sideband, so that they are shown with "remote: " prefix to
 avoid confusing the users.


* mg/cherry-pick-multi-on-unborn (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - cherry-pick: allow to pick to unborn branches

 "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
 cherry-pick A..B" didn't.


* mj/log-show-signature-conf (2016-06-06) 2 commits
 - log: "--no-show-signature" commmand-line option
 - log: add "log.showsignature" configuration variable

 "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
 command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.

 The order of the commits in the topic need to be reversed.


* nd/i-t-a-commitable (2016-06-06) 3 commits
 - commit: don't count i-t-a entries when checking if the new commit is empty
 - Resurrect "diff-lib.c: adjust position of i-t-a entries in diff"
 - diff.h: extend "flags" field to 64 bits because we're out of bits

 "rm .git/index && git add -N * && git commit" allows you to create
 an empty commit without --allow-empty; attempt to forbid it.

 Breaks many tests by completely butchering "git commit", it seems.


* sg/reflog-past-root (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - reflog: continue walking the reflog past root commits

 "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
 creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
 reflog was truncated.


* tb/complete-status (2016-06-10) 3 commits
 - completion: add git status
 - completion: add __git_get_option_value helper
 - completion: factor out untracked file modes into a variable

 status" options.


* tr/doc-tt (2016-06-08) 4 commits
 - doc: change configuration variables format
 - doc: more consistency in environment variables format

 configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
 typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.

 Move from "unsigned char [20]" to "struct object_id" continues,
 with help from an automated tool.


* et/add-chmod-x (2016-06-07) 1 commit
 - add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x options

 "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
 hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
 use it regularly.  "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 We usually call a function that clears the contents a data
 structure X without freeing the structure itself clear_X(), and
 call a function that does clear_X() and also frees it free_X().
 free_pathspec() function has been renamed to clear_pathspec()
 to avoid confusion.

 An upstream project can make a recommendation to make only a

 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at 1e9c920)
 + format_commit_message: honor `color=auto` for `%C(auto)`

 %C(auto) in a custom format string that commands in `git log`
 family takes unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
 --no-color or --color=auto with output not connected to a tty;
 this was corrected to make the format truly behave as "auto".

 When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
 connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
 for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
 been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 (this branch is used by sb/submodule-default-paths; uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing

  To: git
Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

The tip of 'pu' is not expected to pass its own test suite, due to
multiple broken topics queued near its tip. Earlier there was a talk
about automatically bisecting breakage on 'pu', but tonight's
pushout is a good illustration why that would not be very useful.
What would be useful is (1) enumeration of commits on the first
parent chain on master..pu, (2) test of the second parent of each of
the commits found in (1), and (3) bisection between the broken
commits in (2) and 'master', which would highlight broken topics and
the commit(s) that might be responsible for each broken topic.

You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

* nd/shallow-deepen (2016-04-13) 26 commits
 - fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commits
 - upload-pack: add get_reachable_list()
 - upload-pack: split check_unreachable() in two, prep for get_reachable_list()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth excluding a ref
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-exclude
 - upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisions
 - refs: add expand_ref()
 - t5500, t5539: tests for shallow depth since a specific date
 - clone: define shallow clone boundary based on time with --shallow-since
 - fetch: define shallow boundary with --shallow-since
 - upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on time
 - shallow.c: implement a generic shallow boundary finder based on rev-list
 - fetch-pack: use a separate flag for fetch in deepening mode
 - fetch-pack.c: mark strings for translating
 - fetch-pack: use a common function for verbose printing
 - fetch-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move rev-list code out of check_non_tip()
 - upload-pack: tighten number parsing at "deepen" lines
 - upload-pack: use skip_prefix() instead of starts_with()
 - upload-pack: move "unshallow" sending code out of deepen()
 - upload-pack: remove unused variable "backup"

 - upload-pack: move shallow deepen code out of receive_needs()
 - transport-helper.c: refactor set_helper_option()
 - remote-curl.c: convert fetch_git() to use argv_array

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Needs review.

* az/p4-bare-no-rebase (2016-02-19) 1 commit
 - git-p4.py: Don't try to rebase on submit from bare repository

 "git p4 submit" attempts to do a rebase, which would fail if done
 in a bare repository.  Not doing this rebase would paper over the
 failure, which is what this patch does, but it is unclear what the
 side effect of not rebasing is.

 Needs a better explanation.


* nd/icase (2016-02-15) 12 commits
 - grep.c: reuse "icase" variable
 - diffcore-pickaxe: support case insensitive match on non-ascii

* js/am-3-merge-recursive-direct (2015-10-12) 2 commits
 - am: make a direct call to merge_recursive
 - merge_recursive_options: introduce the "gently" flag

 The merge_recursive_generic() function has been made a bit safer to
 call from inside a process.  "git am -3" was taught to make a direct
 call to the function when falling back to three-way merge.

 Being able to make a direct call would be good in general, but as a
 performance thing, the change needs to be backed up by numbers.

 I haven't gone through the "gently" change with fine toothed comb;
 I can see that the change avoids calling die(), but I haven't made
 sure that the program states (e.g. what's in the in-core index) are
 adjusted sensibly when it returns to the caller instead of dying,
 or the codepaths that used to die() are free of resource leaks.
 The original code certainly did not care the program states at the
 point of dying exactly because it knew it is going to exit, but now
 they have to care, and they need to be audited.

 Will be rerolled.

* jc/diff-b-m (2015-02-23) 5 commits
 . WIPWIP
 . WIP: diff-b-m
 - diffcore-rename: allow easier debugging
 - diffcore-rename.c: add locate_rename_src()
 - diffcore-break: allow debugging

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a
 completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed
 file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from
 other place.

 The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately.
 Will discard.


* jc/merge-impossible-no-commit (2016-04-26) 2 commits
 - merge: warn --no-commit merge when no new commit is created
 - merge: do not contaminate option_commit with --squash

 "git merge --no-commit" silently succeeded when there is no need to
 create any commit, either when you are more recent than the commit
 you tried to merge, or you can fast-forward to the commit you tried
 to merge.  The command gives a warning message in such cases.

 Just tying loose ends in a discussion.  Unless somebody else
 champions this topic, I'll drop it.

 Will discard.

 - fixup! d5ad6c13
 - attr.c: pass struct git_attr_check down the callchain
 - attr.c: add push_stack() helper
 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with sb/pathspec-label and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The beginning of long and tortuous journey to clean-up attribute
 subsystem implementation.


* jk/rev-list-count-with-bitmap (2016-06-03) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at dd9b30f)
 + rev-list: disable bitmaps when "-n" is used with listing objects
 + rev-list: "adjust" results of "--count --use-bitmap-index -n"

 "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
 option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
 bitmap index.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* mh/ref-iterators (2016-06-03) 13 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at c8e79dc)
 + for_each_reflog(): reimplement using iterators
 + dir_iterator: new API for iterating over a directory tree
 + for_each_reflog(): don't abort for bad references
 + do_for_each_ref(): reimplement using reference iteration
 + refs: introduce an iterator interface
 + ref_resolves_to_object(): new function
 + entry_resolves_to_object(): rename function from ref_resolves_to_object()
 + get_ref_cache(): only create an instance if there is a submodule
 + remote rm: handle symbolic refs correctly
 + delete_refs(): add a flags argument
 + refs: use name "prefix" consistently
 + do_for_each_ref(): move docstring to the header file
 + refs: remove unnecessary "extern" keywords
 (this branch is used by mh/ref-store; uses mh/split-under-lock; is tangled with mh/update-ref-errors.)

 The API to iterate over all the refs (i.e. for_each_ref(), etc.)
 has been revamped.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* ew/mboxrd-format-am (2016-06-06) 3 commits
 - am: support --patch-format=mboxrd
 - mailsplit: support unescaping mboxrd messages
 - pretty: support "mboxrd" output format

 Teach format-patch and mailsplit (hence "am") how a line that
 happens to begin with "From " in the e-mail message is quoted with
 ">", so that these lines can be restored to their original shape.


* lf/receive-pack-auto-gc-to-client (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - receive-pack: send auto-gc output over sideband 2

 Allow messages that are generated by auto gc during "git push" on
 the receiving end to be explicitly passed back to the sending end
 over sideband, so that they are shown with "remote: " prefix to
 avoid confusing the users.


* mg/cherry-pick-multi-on-unborn (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - cherry-pick: allow to pick to unborn branches

 "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git
 cherry-pick A..B" didn't.


* mj/log-show-signature-conf (2016-06-06) 2 commits
 - log: "--no-show-signature" commmand-line option
 - log: add "log.showsignature" configuration variable

 "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
 command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.

 The order of the commits in the topic need to be reversed.


* nd/i-t-a-commitable (2016-06-06) 3 commits
 - commit: don't count i-t-a entries when checking if the new commit is empty
 - Resurrect "diff-lib.c: adjust position of i-t-a entries in diff"
 - diff.h: extend "flags" field to 64 bits because we're out of bits

 "rm .git/index && git add -N * && git commit" allows you to create
 an empty commit without --allow-empty; attempt to forbid it.

 Breaks many tests by completely butchering "git commit", it seems.


* sg/reflog-past-root (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - reflog: continue walking the reflog past root commits

 "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
 creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
 reflog was truncated.


* tb/complete-status (2016-06-06) 3 commits
 - completion: add git status
 - completion: add __git_get_option_value helper
 - completion: factor out untracked file modes into a variable

 The completion script (in contrib/) learned to complete "git
 status" options.

 Breaks t9902.


* tr/doc-tt (2016-06-08) 4 commits
 - doc: change configuration variables format
 - doc: more consistency in environment variables format
 - doc: change environment variables format
 - doc: clearer rule about formatting literals

 The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
 configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
 typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* vs/prompt-avoid-unset-variable (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - git-prompt.sh: Don't error on null ${ZSH,BASH}_VERSION, $short_sha

 The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
 who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.


* rj/compat-regex-size-max-fix (2016-06-06) 1 commit
 - regex: fix a SIZE_MAX macro redefinition warning

 A compilation fix.

 - merge-recursive: convert struct stage_data to use object_id
 - Rename struct diff_filespec's sha1_valid member.
 - Convert struct diff_filespec to struct object_id
 - Apply standard object_id Coccinelle transformations.
 - Add basic Coccinelle transforms.

 Move from "unsigned char [20]" to "struct object_id" continues,
 with help from an automated tool.


* et/add-chmod-x (2016-06-07) 1 commit
 - add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x options

 "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
 hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
 use it regularly.  "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* jc/t2300-setup (2016-06-01) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 20f7f83)

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 5de784e)
 + t5500 & t7403: lose bash-ism "local"
 + test-lib: add in-shell "env" replacement

 test fixes.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* mh/connect (2016-06-06) 10 commits
 - connect: [host:port] is legacy for ssh
 - connect: move ssh command line preparation to a separate function
 - connect: actively reject git:// urls with a user part
 - connect: change the --diag-url output to separate user and host
 - connect: make parse_connect_url() return the user part of the url as a separate value
 - connect: group CONNECT_DIAG_URL handling code
 - connect: make parse_connect_url() return separated host and port
 - connect: re-derive a host:port string from the separate host and port variables
 - connect: call get_host_and_port() earlier
 - connect: document why we sometimes call get_port after get_host_and_port

 Ok, folks, is everybody happy with this version?


* aq/upload-pack-use-parse-options (2016-05-31) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 505f1ee)
 + upload-pack.c: use parse-options API

 "git upload-pack" command has been updated to use the parse-options
 API.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* jc/clear-pathspec (2016-06-02) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-06 at 9e7e291)
 + pathspec: rename free_pathspec() to clear_pathspec()

 We usually call a function that clears the contents a data
 structure X without freeing the structure itself clear_X(), and
 call a function that does clear_X() and also frees it free_X().
 free_pathspec() function has been renamed to clear_pathspec()
 to avoid confusion.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* sb/submodule-recommend-shallowness (2016-05-27) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at 1ee161c)
 + submodule update: learn `--[no-]recommend-shallow` option
 + submodule-config: keep shallow recommendation around

 An upstream project can make a recommendation to make only a
 shallow clone for some submodules in the .gitmodules file it ship.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.

  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-02 at 3959ef6)
 + worktree: allow "-" short-hand for @{-1} in add command

 "git worktree add" learned that '-' can be used as a short-hand for
 "@{-1}", the previous branch.

* dk/blame-move-no-reason-for-1-line-context (2016-05-29) 1 commit
 - blame: require 0 context lines while finding moved lines with -M

 "git blame -M" missed a single line that was moved within the file.

 We may want to squash a test or two to this commit.  Volunteers?


* nd/worktree-lock (2016-06-03) 6 commits
 - worktree.c: find_worktree() search by path suffix
 - worktree: add "unlock" command
 - worktree: add "lock" command
 - worktree.c: add is_worktree_locked()
 - worktree.c: add is_main_worktree()
 - worktree.c: add find_worktree()
 (this branch uses nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)

 "git worktree prune" protected worktrees that are marked as
 "locked" by creating a file in a known location.  "git worktree"
 command learned a dedicated command pair to create and remoev such
 a file, so that the users do not have to do this with editor.

 Ok, folks, is everybody happy with this version?


* et/pretty-format-c-auto (2016-05-27) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at 1e9c920)
 + format_commit_message: honor `color=auto` for `%C(auto)`

 %C(auto) in a custom format string that commands in `git log`
 family takes unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
 --no-color or --color=auto with output not connected to a tty;
 this was corrected to make the format truly behave as "auto".

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* ew/daemon-socket-keepalive (2016-05-25) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-31 at c32acf1)
 + daemon: enable SO_KEEPALIVE for all sockets

 When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
 connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
 for a long time, wasting resources.  The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
 been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.

 - config: return configset value for current_config_ functions
 - config: set up config_source for command-line config
 - git_config_parse_parameter: refactor cleanup code
 - git_config_with_options: drop "found" counting

 Allow a custom "git upload-pack" replacement to respond to
 "fetch/clone" request.

 + xdiff: -W: don't include common trailing empty lines in context
 + xdiff: ignore empty lines before added functions with -W
 + xdiff: handle appended chunks better with -W
 + xdiff: factor out match_func_rec()
 + t4051: rewrite, add more tests

 "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited
 by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 + pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec
 + Documentation: fix a typo
 (this branch uses jc/attr; is tangled with jc/attr-more and sb/submodule-default-paths.)

 The pathspec mechanism learned ":(attr:X)$pattern" pathspec magic
 to limit paths that match $pattern further by attribute settings.
 The preload-index mechanism is disabled when the new pathspec magic
 is in use (at least for now), because the attribute subsystem is
 not thread-ready.

* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
 - send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

* What's cooking in git.git (Jun 2016, #02; Mon, 6)
@ 2016-06-07  5:58  3% Junio C Hamano
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 22+ results
From: Junio C Hamano @ 2016-06-07  5:58 UTC (permalink / raw
  To: git
Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.

The hopefully final release candidate 2.9-rc2 together with 2.8.4
has been pushed out.

By the way, the tip of 'pu' is not expected to pass its own test
suite, due to multiple broken topics queued near its tip. Earlier
there was a talk about automatically bisecting breakage on 'pu', but
tonight's pushout is a good illustration why that would not be very
useful.  What would be useful is (1) enumeration of commits on the
first parent chain on master..pu, (2) test of the second parent of
each of the commits found in (1), and (3) bisection between the
broken commits in (2) and 'master', which would highlight broken
topics and the commit(s) that might be responsible for each broken
topic.

You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

 "git log" learns log.showSignature configuration variable, and a
 command line option "--no-show-signature" to countermand it.

 The order of the commits in the topic need to be reversed.

 The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
 correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
 deeper.  A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
 easier to use.  "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
 and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
 "I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
 "Give me only the history since that version".

 Needs review.

* az/p4-bare-no-rebase (2016-02-19) 1 commit
 - git-p4.py: Don't try to rebase on submit from bare repository

 "git p4 submit" attempts to do a rebase, which would fail if done

 failure, which is what this patch does, but it is unclear what the
 side effect of not rebasing is.

* js/am-3-merge-recursive-direct (2015-10-12) 2 commits
 - am: make a direct call to merge_recursive
 - merge_recursive_options: introduce the "gently" flag

 The merge_recursive_generic() function has been made a bit safer to
 call from inside a process.  "git am -3" was taught to make a direct
 call to the function when falling back to three-way merge.

 Being able to make a direct call would be good in general, but as a
 performance thing, the change needs to be backed up by numbers.

 I haven't gone through the "gently" change with fine toothed comb;
 I can see that the change avoids calling die(), but I haven't made
 sure that the program states (e.g. what's in the in-core index) are
 adjusted sensibly when it returns to the caller instead of dying,
 or the codepaths that used to die() are free of resource leaks.
 The original code certainly did not care the program states at the
 point of dying exactly because it knew it is going to exit, but now
 they have to care, and they need to be audited.

 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a

 "git merge --no-commit" silently succeeded when there is no need to
 create any commit, either when you are more recent than the commit
 you tried to merge, or you can fast-forward to the commit you tried
 to merge.  The command gives a warning message in such cases.

 The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
 first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
 be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
 than once.

 The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
 structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
 to the caller is not queued yet but in flight.  It would be good to
 review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
 base to build on.

 Further preparatory work on the refs API before the pluggable
 backend series can land.

 Will merge to 'master' after 2.9 final.


* ew/fast-import-unpack-limit (2016-05-29) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-29 at af32aba)
 + fast-import: invalidate pack_id references after loosening
  (merged to 'next' on 2016-05-11 at ffd4efb)
 + fast-import: implement unpack limit

 "git fast-import" learned the same performance trick to avoid
 creating too small a packfile as "git fetch" and "git push" have,
 using *.unpackLimit configuration.

 Will hold.


* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
 - send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files

 A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
 0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
 0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
 embarrassment and a minor confusion.  Detect such an input and
 offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

 Needs review.


* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-05-17) 17 commits
 - branch: implement '--format' option

 The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
 with the more generic ref-filter API.

 Rerolled.
 Needs review.

 - index-helper: new daemon for caching index and related stuff
 - pkt-line: add gentle version of packet_write
 - read-cache: allow to keep mmap'd memory after reading
 - read-cache.c: fix constness of verify_hdr()

 A new "index-helper" daemon has been introduced to give newly
 spawned Git process a quicker access to the data in the index, and

 refresh cost.

 Rerolled.

 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
 been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
 warning message since v2.5.0.

 It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
 which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.

Changes since v2:

* beef up tests, including accounting for the trailing whitespace
  omission in pretty output but still accepting and preserving
  trailing whitespace in mailsplit.

* indicate disabling variable interpolation in heredoc (but
  using variable interpolation as needed for trailing space
  in tests).

* use "git grep" for "-A<NUM>" for portability

* avoid the use of regexp for matching /^From / and /^>+From /

Thanks to Eric Sunshine and Junio for helping with the first round.

  To: git
Sometimes users will copy+paste an entire mbox into a
commit message, leading to bad splits when a patch is
output as an email.

Unlike other mbox-family formats, mboxrd allows reversible
round-tripping while avoiding bad splits for old "mboxo"
readers.

I'm also considering altering the current
"From ${COMMIT} Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001" line to something
else so mailsplit (or "am") can autodetect.

Maybe:
	From ${COMMIT}@mboxrd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
?


We may also want to default to single escaping "From " in
commit messages for --pretty=email to avoid corruption when
somebody copy+pastes an mbox into the commit message.
This is a technically incompatible change, but I think it's
preferable to breaking splitting complete.

In other words, --pretty=email changes to output "mboxo"
for now.

Long term (possibly git 3.0?), maybe mboxrd can become the
default mail format.  IMHO, it should've been since 2005.
