  To: git

Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with '-' are
only in 'seen' (formerly '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 2.31 has been tagged.  We will hopefully either (1) not see
brown-paper-bag breakages at all, or (2) will see some but can
immediately deal with them, in coming couple of days.  After that,
the 2.32 cycle will gain steam, starting next week.  Let's see.

Many topics marked as "Will cook in 'next'" should be marked for
merging to 'master' now, but that hasn't happened yet.  Please
nominate those that should be kicked back from 'next' to 'seen', if
there are any.  Please also nominate those that should be among the
first batch of topics to be in 'master' (after a handful of 2.31
regression fixes go through 'next' down to 'master', that is).

Copies of the source code to Git live in many repositories, and the
following is a list of the ones I push into or their mirrors.  Some
repositories have only a subset of branches.

With maint, master, next, seen, todo:

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/
	git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git/
	https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git/
	https://github.com/git/git/
	https://gitlab.com/git-vcs/git/

With all the integration branches and topics broken out:

	https://github.com/gitster/git/

Even though the preformatted documentation in HTML and man format
are not sources, they are published in these repositories for
convenience (replace "htmldocs" with "manpages" for the manual
pages):

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-htmldocs.git/

 I am not exactly sure where this series wants to go, other than
 unnecessarily churning the code.  Seems to break "diff --no-index"
 rather badly, too (e.g. t4050, t4002, among others).


* jh/fsmonitor-prework (2021-03-17) 1 commit
 - fsmonitor: avoid global-buffer-overflow READ when checking trivial response

 The fsmonitor interface read from its input without making sure

* ab/tests-cleanup-around-sha1 (2021-03-10) 4 commits
 - tests: get rid of $_x05 from the test suite
 - shortlog tests: rewrite to get rid of --abbrev=35 hardcoding
 - test-lib: remove unused $_x40 and $_z40 variables
 - git-bisect: remove unused SHA-1 $x40 shell variable

 Remove variables that hold regexp and glob that match fixed number
 of hexadecimal digits from the test suite.

 Expecting a reroll.
 At least the last one weakens a test and should be dropped; there
 may be similar breakage due to not understanding what they are
 trying to test.


* jk/filter-branch-sha256 (2021-03-10) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-03-14 at e4e624590a)

 In the longer term, we might want to remove filter-branch and nudge
 folks to more modern tools.


* ab/make-cocci-dedup (2021-03-12) 5 commits
 - Makefile/coccicheck: use --include-headers-for-types
 - Makefile/coccicheck: set SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE to 8
 - Makefile/coccicheck: allow for setting xargs concurrency
 - Makefile/coccicheck: speed up and fix bug with duplicate hunks
 - Makefile/coccicheck: add comment heading for all SPATCH flags

 Coccicheck update.

 Expecting a reroll.
 IIUC, the "speed up" claimed in the intermediate steps are all gone
 when correctness is brought back in with the last step.  The series
 needs a restructuring to avoid confuing readers with "it produces
 incorrect result very quickly" followed by "we now produce right
 result, even more correct than the original, but we are not all
 that fast" progression.


* ab/read-tree (2021-03-17) 9 commits
 - tree.h API: expose read_tree_1() as read_tree_at()

 - tree.h API: remove "stage" parameter from read_tree_recursive()
 - tree.h API: remove support for starting at prefix != ""
 - ls-files: refactor away read_tree()
 - ls-files: don't needlessly pass around stage variable
 - tree.c API: move read_tree() into builtin/ls-files.c
 - ls-files tests: add meaningful --with-tree tests
 (this branch is used by ab/tree-walk-with-object-type.)

 Code simplification by removing support for a caller that is long gone.

 Expecting a reroll.
 Mostly good, but the progression shows "oops we screwed up" earlier
 in the series that is then fixed later.


* ab/unexpected-object-type (2021-03-08) 7 commits
 - tag: don't misreport type of tagged objects in errors
 - object tests: add test for unexpected objects in tags
 - object.c: add a utility function for "expected type X, got Y"

 Error reporting upon object type mismatch has been improved

 Expecting a reroll.
 Looked good except for some rewrites.

 which has been corrected.

 Will cook in 'next'.

 We had a code to diagnose and die cleanly when a required

 (this branch uses cm/rebase-i and cm/rebase-i-updates.)

 "git commit --fixup=<commit>", which was to tweak the changes made
 to the contents while keeping the original log message intact,
 learned "--fixup=(amend|reword):<commit>", that can be used to
 tweak both the message and the contents, and only the message,
 respectively.


* jk/open-dotgitx-with-nofollow (2021-02-16) 6 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-02-25 at a784bf7be6)
 + mailmap: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .mailmap
 + exclude: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitignore
 + attr: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitattributes
 + exclude: add flags parameter to add_patterns()
 + attr: convert "macro_ok" into a flags field

 It does not make sense to make ".gitattributes", ".gitignore" and
 ".mailmap" symlinks, as they are supposed to be usable from the
 object store (think: bare repositories where HEAD:.mailmap etc. are
 used).  When these files are symbolic links, we used to read the
 contents of the files pointed by them by mistake, which has been
 corrected.

 It seems that there are real projects with .gitignore recorded as
 symlinks, which may need to loosen the fsck setting.  Do we need to
 introduce a class that is separate from symlinked .gitmodules that
 has potential consequences that is more/less grave, so that these
 projects can opt out of the new checks?

Will do; I'll also point out a few topics that have been reviewed but
haven't been picked up yet.

Can I suggest an alternate title?  "merge-ort optimization of skipping
irrelevant renames" or anything that gets the idea of "skipping
irrelevant renames" in there.

Yeah, I think it's ready; I'm not aware of any needed changes.

[Not yet cooking]

Here are some reviewed topics that haven't been cooking yet, that I
personally think are worth picking up (at least for seen and probably
for next rather soonish):

https://lore.kernel.org/git/8422759a-a4a3-4dc6-4ae7-4a61896b9946@gmail.com/;
(the review comment there is addressed by the next patch series in
this list)

* My "declare merge-ort stable" series at
https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.905.v2.git.1616016485.gitgitgadget@gmail.com/
(though most the reviews were on the separate-at-the-time topic at
https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.973.v2.git.git.1615271086.gitgitgadget@gmail.com/
).  Actually, only the first 12 patches are reviewed, but the last one
is testing code rather than source code, so close enough for at least
picking up?

I don't know. ;-)

I fetch from the repos directly and then use a script (which uses
git-archive) to generate my own tarballs - maybe a bit indirect! ;-D

When a "will merge to 'next'" topic is merged to 'next', its label
is mechanically rewritten to "will merge to 'master'" outside the
pre-release freeze, and to "will cook in 'next'" while pre-release
freeze.  So for the topics labelled with "Will cook in 'next'", by
default they should turn into "Will merge to 'master'".

That was why I was specifically asking for topics to be KICKED OUT
of 'next', to give them a fresh start without having to do "oops,
this was a mistake, let's patch it up".

> Here are some reviewed topics that haven't been cooking yet, that I

Thanks for a useful list of topics.  At this point, topics that are
not picked up are not because they are not ready/worth, but because
there are too many of them sent during the pre-release freeze.

There are 8, 9 and now this 10 in flight, which is two topics too
many to have in flight at the same time X-<.  Luckily -8 seems to be
good for 'master', so there is no risk of having to rewind it
anymore, which makes the burden of having to carry multiple dependent
topics at the same time.

Okay, color me confused.  You said in your original email:

"""
Many topics marked as "Will cook in 'next'" should be marked for
merging to 'master' now, but that hasn't happened yet.  Please
nominate those that should be kicked back from 'next' to 'seen', if
there are any.  Please also nominate those that should be among the
first batch of topics to be in 'master'.
"""

You had two "Please" statements in that paragrah.  I've nominated
topics for kicking-out before, but didn't know of any relevant topics
this time.  I did, however, think of one that I thought was worth
nominating for your second request.  Maybe I'm still misunderstanding
something important here, but I'm worried about exasperating you any
further so I'll just drop it.  I was trying to be helpful, sorry that
I wasn't.

Totally understood.  I wasn't trying to imply anything, I just know
it's hard to keep up with all the email (I honestly have no idea how
you do it as much as you do).  I know that especially when you're
busy, you might avoid picking up topics that look like they're just
going to continue churning.  I figured that it might be useful, out of
the topics not yet picked up, to highlight ones I knew of where the
current reviewers appeared to be happy at the state of the series.  If
my guesses at what might be helpful isn't, do let me know and I'll
avoid repeating.

Well 9 is "skip irrelevant renames" and 10 is "skip more irrelevant
renames" so they can be combined into one.  In fact, the "declare
merge ort stable" series was primarily addressing an issue reviewers
found with those series, so it could be lumped in too.  Would you like
me to resubmit that as one bigger series?  (The whole thing has been
reviewed by Stolee and about a third has been reviewed by Ævar, if
that matters to the answer.)

Also, moving forward, to avoid the risk of rewinds...

I had been trying to avoid the risk of rewinds by waiting until any
given series was fixed to the satisfaction of those who had spoken up
and reviewed it (and ensuring that included at least one person),
before I would submit another series.  If that's not sufficient, what
should I be doing instead?

Thanks,
Elijah

A few topics that are relevant for 2.31.x maintenance track have
been merged to 'next', and I am planning to merge the following
topics (including those that are new in 'next' due to their being
maint material) down to 'master' before doing anything else, before
the beginning of the next week at the latest.

After that, let's rewind the tip of 'next' and start merging other
topics down to 'next', but that will still be done as-time-permits
basis and the progress may be slow yet.
