Will cook in 'next'. cf. <20200306172913.GF1571684@cat> * at/rebase-fork-point-regression-fix (2020-02-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2020-03-02 at a1a84d37a7) + rebase: --fork-point regression fix The "--fork-point" mode of "git rebase" regressed when the command was rewritten in C back in 2.20 era, which has been corrected. Will cook in 'next'. * jc/describe-misnamed-annotated-tag (2020-02-20) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2020-03-02 at b4e2ca6a46) + describe: force long format for a name based on a mislocated tag When "git describe C" finds an annotated tag with tagname A to be the best name to explain commit C, and the tag is stored in a "wrong" place in the refs/tags hierarchy, e.g. refs/tags/B, the command gave a warning message but used A (not B) to describe C. If C is exactly at the tag, the describe output would be "A", but "git rev-parse A^0" would not be equal as "git rev-parse C^0". The behavior of the command has been changed to use the "long" form i.e. A-0-gOBJECTNAME, which is correctly interpreted by rev-parse. Will cook in 'next'. * pb/recurse-submodules-fix (2020-02-19) 6 commits (merged to 'next' on 2020-03-17 at b46922ddd1) + t/lib-submodule-update: add test removing nested submodules + unpack-trees: check for missing submodule directory in merged_entry + unpack-trees: remove outdated description for verify_clean_submodule + t/lib-submodule-update: move a test to the right section + t/lib-submodule-update: remove outdated test description + t7112: remove mention of KNOWN_FAILURE_SUBMODULE_RECURSIVE_NESTED Fix "git checkout --recurse-submodules" of a nested submodule hierarchy.

Temporarily ejected as this unfortunately conflicts with the SHA-256 topic. * es/bugreport (2020-03-23) 5 commits - bugreport: add compiler info - bugreport: add uname info - bugreport: gather git version and build info - bugreport: add tool to generate debugging info - help: move list_config_help to builtin/help The "bugreport" tool. New iteration (v11) exists, which needs to be picked up. As the scope of the topic got trimmed, hopefully these early parts can be polished quickly enough to be merged down. -------------------------------------------------- [Discarded] * jc/rebase-backend-keep-old-default (2020-03-10) 1 commit . rebase: do not switch the default to 'merge' just yet The "merge" backend of "git rebase" still has a few bugs and unexpected behaviour that need to be ironed out before it becomes the default. Let's switch the default back to the "apply" backend for now.
