Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.
I'll do another rc (hopefully final) for this cycle tomorrow, with
documentation updates that are already in 'master'. The toolchain
to prepare preformatted documentation pages in HTML/man formats have
been updated to the latest AsciiDoc (from 8.5.2 to 8.6.8), and I'd
appreciate it if people can report possible regressions (I already
know the updated toolchain fixes the pretty-quotes that appear in
some pages, e.g. "git fast-import", look for "Here <name").
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"]
* as/doc-for-devs (2012-12-16) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-18 at ff1f37e)
+ Documentation: move support for old compilers to CodingGuidelines
+ SubmittingPatches: add convention of prefixing commit messages
It might be a better idea to move the text the bottom one adds to
the extended description from the quick checklist part.
Will fast-track to the upcoming release.
* cr/doc-checkout-branch (2012-12-18) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-19 at e14b6c4)
+ Documentation/git-checkout.txt: document 70c9ac2 behavior

(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-19 at 82c5000)
+ Documentation: Describe "git diff <blob> <blob>" separately
"git diff <blob> <blob>" was not documented and was only hinted as
an extension to "git diff <commit> <commit> -- <pathspec>", but
comparison between two blobs are more special than that. It does
not take any pathspec to begin with.
Will fast-track to the upcoming release.

(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-17 at 857413a)

Expecting a re-roll.
* aw/rebase-am-failure-detection (2012-10-11) 1 commit
- rebase: Handle cases where format-patch fails
I am unhappy a bit about the possible performance implications of
having to store the output in a temporary file only for a rare case
of format-patch aborting.
* jk/lua-hackery (2012-10-07) 6 commits
- pretty: fix up one-off format_commit_message calls
- Minimum compilation fixup
- Makefile: make "lua" a bit more configurable
- add a "lua" pretty format
- add basic lua infrastructure
- pretty: make some commit-parsing helpers more public
Interesting exercise. When we do this for real, we probably would want
to wrap a commit to make it more like an "object" with methods like
"parents", etc.
* fc/remote-testgit-feature-done (2012-10-29) 1 commit
- remote-testgit: properly check for errors
Needs review and Ack (or Nack) from people involved in the remote
helper interface for this to move forward.
* rc/maint-complete-git-p4 (2012-09-24) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2012-10-29 at af52cef)
+ Teach git-completion about git p4
Comment from Pete will need to be addressed in a follow-up patch.
* jc/maint-name-rev (2012-09-17) 7 commits
- describe --contains: use "name-rev --algorithm=weight"
- name-rev --algorithm=weight: tests and documentation
- name-rev --algorithm=weight: cache the computed weight in notes
- name-rev --algorithm=weight: trivial optimization
- name-rev: --algorithm option
- name_rev: clarify the logic to assign a new tip-name to a commit
- name-rev: lose unnecessary typedef
"git name-rev" names the given revision based on a ref that can be
reached in the smallest number of steps from the rev, but that is
not useful when the caller wants to know which tag is the oldest one
that contains the rev. This teaches a new mode to the command that
uses the oldest ref among those which contain the rev.
I am not sure if this is worth it; for one thing, even with the help
from notes-cache, it seems to make the "describe --contains" even
slower. Also the command will be unusably slow for a user who does
not have a write access (hence unable to create or update the
notes-cache).
Stalled mostly due to lack of responses.
* jc/xprm-generation (2012-09-14) 1 commit
- test-generation: compute generation numbers and clock skews
A toy to analyze how bad the clock skews are in histories of real
world projects.
Stalled mostly due to lack of responses.
* jc/blame-no-follow (2012-09-21) 2 commits
- blame: pay attention to --no-follow
- diff: accept --no-follow option
Teaches "--no-follow" option to "git blame" to disable its
whole-file rename detection.
Stalled mostly due to lack of responses.
* jc/doc-default-format (2012-11-26) 2 commits
- [SQAUSH] allow "cd Doc* && make DEFAULT_DOC_TARGET=..."
- Allow generating a non-default set of documentation
Need to address the installation half if this is to be any useful.
* mk/maint-graph-infinity-loop (2012-09-25) 1 commit
- graph.c: infinite loop in git whatchanged --graph -m
The --graph code fell into infinite loop when asked to do what the
code did not expect ;-)
Anybody who worked on "--graph" wants to comment?
Stalled mostly due to lack of responses.
* jc/add-delete-default (2012-08-13) 1 commit
- git add: notice removal of tracked paths by default
"git add dir/" updated modified files and added new files, but does
not notice removed files, which may be "Huh?" to some users. They
can of course use "git add -A dir/", but why should they?
Resurrected from graveyard, as I thought it was a worthwhile thing
to do in the longer term.
Waiting for comments.
* mb/remote-default-nn-origin (2012-07-11) 6 commits
- Teach get_default_remote to respect remote.default.
- Test that plain "git fetch" uses remote.default when on a detached HEAD.
- Teach clone to set remote.default.
- Teach "git remote" about remote.default.
- Teach remote.c about the remote.default configuration setting.
- Rename remote.c's default_remote_name static variables.
When the user does not specify what remote to interact with, we
often attempt to use 'origin'. This can now be customized via a
configuration variable.
Expecting a re-roll.
"The first remote becomes the default" bit is better done as a
separate step.

* wk/submodule-update-remote (2012-12-19) 3 commits
- submodule add: If --branch is given, record it in .gitmodules
- submodule update: add --remote for submodule's upstream changes
- submodule: add get_submodule_config helper funtion
The beginning of 'integrate with the tip of the remote branch, not
the commit recorded in the superproject gitlink' support.

* cc/no-gitk-build-dependency (2012-12-18) 3 commits
- Makefile: replace "echo 1>..." with "echo >..."
- Makefile: detect when PYTHON_PATH changes
- Makefile: remove tracking of TCLTK_PATH
Remove leftover bits from an earlier change to move gitk in its own
subdirectory. Reimplementing the dependency tracking rules needs
to be done in gitk history separately.
Will merge to 'next'.
* jc/format-color-auto (2012-12-17) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-18 at 5aaac94)
+ log --format: teach %C(auto,black) to respect color config
+ t6006: clean up whitespace
Introduce "log --format=%C(auto,blue)Foo%C(auto,reset)" that does
not color its output when writing to a non-terminal.
Will cook in 'next'.

- git-svn, perl/Git.pm: add central method for prompting passwords
Waiting for an Ack from the area export.
* zk/clean-report-failure (2012-12-17) 1 commit
- git-clean: Display more accurate delete messages
"git clean" states what it is going to remove and then goes on to
remove it, but sometimes it only discovers things that cannot be
removed after recursing into a directory, which makes the output
confusing and even wrong.
* mp/complete-paths (2012-12-21) 1 commit
- git-completion.bash: add support for path completion
The completion script used to let the default completer to suggest
pathnames, which gave too many irrelevant choices (e.g. "git add"
would not want to add an unmodified path). Teach it to use a more
git-aware logic to enumerate only relevant ones.
Waiting for area-experts review.
* ja/directory-attrs (2012-12-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-17 at ced8e73)
+ Add directory pattern matching to attributes
The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be
applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the
exclude mechanism does.
Will cook in 'next'.
* jk/mailmap-from-blob (2012-12-13) 5 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-17 at 14b7cdc)

+ mailmap: fix some documentation loose-ends for mailmap.blob
+ mailmap: clean up read_mailmap error handling
+ mailmap: support reading mailmap from blobs
+ mailmap: refactor mailmap parsing for non-file sources
Allow us to read, and default to read, mailmap files from the tip
of the history in bare repositories. This will help running tools
like shortlog in server settings.
Will cook in 'next'.
* dm/port (2012-12-19) 4 commits

Complete "git commmit -c foo<TAB>" into a refname that begins with
"foo".
Will cook in 'next'.
* jk/error-const-return (2012-12-15) 2 commits
- silence some -Wuninitialized false positives
- make error()'s constant return value more visible
Help compilers' flow analysis by making it more explicit that
error() always returns -1, to reduce false "variable used
uninitialized" warnings. Looks somewhat ugly but not too much.
Will merge to 'next'.
* mk/qnx (2012-12-19) 2 commits
- Port to QNX
- Make lock local to fetch_pack
(this branch uses dm/port.)
Port to QNX; we may want to rebase this on top of dm/port topic as
it also wants to use the HAVE_STRINGS_H mechanism it introduces.
Will merge to 'next'.
* rj/maint-cygwin-say-color (2012-12-15) 1 commit
- tests: Allow customization of how say_color() prints
Even though I do not think of a cleaner way to do this, I am not
happy with the way how $GIT_TEST_PRINT and $GIT_TEST_PRINT_LN are
interpolated into the command line with token splitting at $IFS.
Will discard, per discussion with the author.

Gitweb showed repositories without any commit at the top in its

(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-07 at ea772f0)
+ submodule: add 'deinit' command
There was no Porcelain way to say "I no longer am interested in
this submodule", once you express your interest in a submodule with
"submodule init". "submodule deinit" is the way to do so.
Will cook in 'next'.

(merged to 'next' on 2012-12-07 at 6b04419)
+ launch_editor: propagate signals from editor to git
+ run-command: do not warn about child death from terminal
+ launch_editor: ignore terminal signals while editor has control
+ launch_editor: refactor to use start/finish_command
+ run-command: drop silent_exec_failure arg from wait_or_whine
Avoid confusing cases where the user hits Ctrl-C while in the editor
session, not realizing git will receive the signal. Since most editors
will take over the terminal and will block SIGINT, this is not likely
to confuse anyone.
Will cook in 'next'.

+ config: exit on error accessing any config file
+ doc: advertise GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM
+ config: treat user and xdg config permission problems as errors
+ config, gitignore: failure to access with ENOTDIR is ok
An RFC to deal with a situation where .config/git is a file and we
notice .config/git/config is not readable due to ENOTDIR, not
ENOENT.

(merged to 'next' on 2012-11-26 at d1ce76a)
+ string_list_longest_prefix(): remove function
+ setup_git_directory_gently_1(): resolve symlinks in ceiling paths
+ longest_ancestor_length(): require prefix list entries to be normalized
+ longest_ancestor_length(): take a string_list argument for prefixes
+ longest_ancestor_length(): use string_list_split()
+ Introduce new function real_path_if_valid()
+ real_path_internal(): add comment explaining use of cwd
+ Introduce new static function real_path_internal()
Elements of GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES list may not match the real
pathname we obtain from getcwd(), leading the GIT_DIR discovery
logic to escape the ceilings the user thought to have specified.
Resurrected from Stalled; the earlier performance fear was
unwarranted.

+ apply.c:update_pre_post_images(): the preimage can be truncated
Fix to update_pre_post_images() that did not take into account the
possibility that whitespace fix could shrink the preimage and
change the number of lines in it.

+ test-wildmatch: avoid Windows path mangling
(merged to 'next' on 2012-10-25 at 510e8df)

+ wildmatch: make /**/ match zero or more directories
+ wildmatch: adjust "**" behavior
+ wildmatch: fix case-insensitive matching
+ wildmatch: remove static variable force_lower_case

+ Integrate wildmatch to git
+ wildmatch: follow Git's coding convention
+ wildmatch: remove unnecessary functions
+ Import wildmatch from rsync
+ ctype: support iscntrl, ispunct, isxdigit and isprint
+ ctype: make sane_ctype[] const array
Allows pathname patterns in .gitignore and .gitattributes files
with double-asterisks "foo/**/bar" to match any number of directory
hierarchies.
I suspect that this needs to be plugged to pathspec matching code;
otherwise "git log -- 'Docum*/**/*.txt'" would not show the log for
commits that touch Documentation/git.txt, which would be confusing
to the users.
