What's cooking in git.git (Feb 2011, #07; Mon, 28)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with '-' are
only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'.

I started draft release notes for 1.7.5 on 'master' branch.

--------------------------------------------------
[New Topics]

* jc/diff-irreversible-delete (2011-02-28) 1 commit
 - git diff -D: omit the preimage of deletes

Just a POC.

* jc/index-pack (2011-02-25) 5 commits
 - index-pack --verify: read anomalous offsets from v2 idx file
 - write_idx_file: need_large_offset() helper function
 - index-pack: --verify
 - write_idx_file: introduce a struct to hold idx customization options
 - index-pack: group the delta-base array entries also by type

Still a WIP.

* mm/push-default-advice (2011-02-28) 2 commits
 - push: better error messages for detached HEAD and "no destination"
 - push: better error message when push.default = tracking

There were some rewording discussion I didn't roll into this, not because
I had objections to, but because I was handling other topics.  I expect
I'll see a reroll soonish so that we can merge this down soonish.

* sp/maint-fd-limit (2011-02-28) 2 commits
 - mingw: add minimum getrlimit() compatibility stub
 - Limit file descriptors used by packs

Erik, please check the made-up commit log message and sign it off.
Will merge to 'next' after that.

* uk/ls-remote-in-get-remote-url (2011-02-28) 1 commit
 - get_remote_url(): use the same data source as ls-remote to get remote urls

Will merge to 'next'.

--------------------------------------------------
[Stalled]

* jh/merge-sans-branch (2011-02-10) 4 commits
 . merge: add support for merging from upstream by default
 - merge: introduce per-branch-configuration helper function
 - merge: introduce setup_merge_commit helper function
 - merge: update the usage information to be more modern

There was an objection to the tip one that determines the upstream in a
wrong way?

* jc/complete-symmetric-diff (2011-02-23) 1 commit
 - completion: complete "git diff ...branc<TAB>"

It was pointed out that this would regress diffing two blobs,
using <tree>:<path> syntax.

* gr/cvsimport-alternative-cvspass-location (2011-02-18) 1 commit
 - Look for password in both CVS and CVSNT password files.

It seems that we need separate parsers for these two formats in order not
to regress the users of the original cvs.

* jk/tag-contains (2010-07-05) 4 commits
 - Why is "git tag --contains" so slow?
 - default core.clockskew variable to one day
 - limit "contains" traversals based on commit timestamp
 - tag: speed up --contains calculation

The idea of the bottom one is probably Ok, except that the use of object
flags needs to be rethought, or at least the helper needs to be moved to
builtin/tag.c to make it clear that it should not be used outside the
current usage context.

* jc/rename-degrade-cc-to-c (2011-01-06) 3 commits
 . diffcore-rename: fall back to -C when -C -C busts the rename limit
 . diffcore-rename: record filepair for rename src
 . diffcore-rename: refactor "too many candidates" logic

Somebody said that this is an expensive no-op?

--------------------------------------------------

Rebased on other infrastructure adjustments (tentatively renamed the
branch).  I'd like to fast-track the basics (especially the bottom 3
patches), and am even tempted to rebase other patches on 'pu' that are not
yet in 'next' on top of them, to make the transition easier.

Unless there is something glaringly wrong, I'd merge up to 9018b8a (i18n:
git-clone "Cloning into" message) to 'next' soonish, possibly rebasing
other 'pu'-only topics on top of that commit.

* jc/checkout-orphan-warning (2011-02-18) 1 commit
 - commit: give final warning when reattaching HEAD to leave commits behind

* jh/maint-do-not-track-non-branches (2011-02-17) 1 commit

Will merge to 'next'.

* jk/fail-null-clone (2011-02-17) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2011-02-23 at a4217f5)

 - pull: propagate --progress to merge

format-patch before it hits 'master', though.  Hint, hint...

* so/submodule-no-update-first-time (2011-02-17) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2011-02-23 at 2c6e8c9)
