Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in '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"] * jk/diff-algo-finishing-touches (2013-04-05) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-11 at af83b2b) + diff: allow unstuck arguments with --diff-algorithm + git-merge(1): document diff-algorithm option to merge-recursive "git diff --diff-algorithm algo" is also understood as "git diff --diff-algorithm=algo". * jk/diff-graph-submodule-summary (2013-04-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-11 at 70dfa8d) + submodule: print graph output next to submodule log Make "git diff --graph" work better with submodule log output. * jk/http-error-messages (2013-04-06) 9 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-11 at 7a03981) + http: drop http_error function + remote-curl: die directly with http error messages + http: re-word http error message + http: simplify http_error helper function + remote-curl: consistently report repo url for http errors + remote-curl: always show friendlier 404 message + remote-curl: let servers override http 404 advice + remote-curl: show server content on http errors + http: add HTTP_KEEP_ERROR option Improve error reporting from the http transfer clients. * jk/show-branch-strbuf (2013-04-06) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-11 at 7a20aa5) + show-branch: use strbuf instead of static buffer "git show-branch" was not prepared to show a very long run of ancestor operators e.g. foobar^2~2^2^2^2...^2~4 correctly. * lf/bundle-with-tip-wo-message (2013-04-07) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-11 at bb9f869) + bundle: Accept prerequisites without commit messages "git bundle" did not like a bundle created using a commit without any message as its one of the prerequistes. * po/help-guides (2013-04-03) 5 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-04 at 3d99b28) + doc: include --guide option description for "git help" + help: mention -a and -g option, and 'git help <concept>' usage. + builtin/help.c: add list_common_guides_help() function + builtin/help.c: add --guide option + builtin/help.c: split "-a" processing into two "git help" learned "-g" option to show the list of guides just like list of commands are given with "-a". * po/help-guides (2013-04-12) 1 commit - help: mark common_guides[] as translatable Finishing touches. * rt/commentchar-fmt-merge-msg (2013-04-07) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-11 at 6af638b) + fmt-merge-msg: use core.commentchar in tag signatures completely + fmt-merge-msg: respect core.commentchar in people credits The new core.commentchar configuration was not applied to a few places. * tr/perl-keep-stderr-open (2013-04-04) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-07 at 04f737a) + t9700: do not close STDERR + perl: redirect stderr to /dev/null instead of closing Closing (not redirecting to /dev/null) the standard error stream is not a very smart thing to do. Later open may return file descriptor #2 for unrelated purpose, and error reporting code may write into them. -------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * kb/status-ignored-optim-2 (2013-04-15) 14 commits . dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't scan the work tree twice . dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't scan the work tree three times . dir.c: git-status: avoid is_excluded checks for tracked files . dir.c: replace is_path_excluded with now equivalent is_excluded API . dir.c: unify is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs . dir.c: move prep_exclude . dir.c: factor out parts of last_exclude_matching for later reuse . dir.c: git-clean -d -X: don't delete tracked directories . dir.c: make 'git-status --ignored' work within leading directories . dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list empty directories as ignored . dir.c: git-ls-files --directories: don't hide empty directories . dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list empty ignored directories . dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list files in ignored directories . dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't drop ignored directories Rerolls kb/status-ignored-optim topic (reverted from 'next'). Not merged to 'pu' as it heavily interferes with as/check-ignore topic. * fc/branch-upstream-color (2013-04-15) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-15 at 2fc50fd) + branch: colour upstream branches Add more colors to "git branch -vv" output.

Comments? * jn/config-ignore-inaccessible (2013-04-15) 1 commit - config: allow inaccessible configuration under $HOME When $HOME is misconfigured to point at an unreadable directory, we used to complain and die. This loosens the check. I do not think we agreed that this is a good idea, though. * jn/gitweb-install-doc (2013-04-15) 1 commit - gitweb/INSTALL: Simplify description of GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM Reword gitweb configuration instrutions. Will merge to 'next'. * jx/i18n-branch-error-messages (2013-04-15) 1 commit - i18n: branch: mark strings for translation Will merge to 'master'. * nd/checkout-keep-sparse (2013-04-15) 1 commit - checkout: add --ignore-skip-worktree-bits in sparse checkout mode Make the initial "sparse" selection of the paths more sticky across "git checkout".

I personally have no need for this, but it was easy enough to cobble together. Tests, docs and stripping out more MIMEy stuff are left as exercises to interested parties. Not ready for inclusion. -------------------------------------------------- [Cooking] * ap/strbuf-humanize (2013-04-10) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-14 at 66d7af5) + count-objects: add -H option to humanize sizes + strbuf: create strbuf_humanise_bytes() to show byte sizes Teach "--human-readable" aka "-H" option to "git count-objects" to show various large numbers in Ki/Mi/GiB scaled as necessary. I've decided to let this topic supersede mc/count-objects-kibibytes. Human users will get an even easier output with "-H" and by not changing the output without an explicit option we do not have to break third-party tools that may have been reading from the output of this command. * as/clone-reference-with-gitfile (2013-04-09) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-15 at ab0d128) + clone: Allow repo using gitfile as a reference + clone: Fix error message for reference repository "git clone" did not work if a repository pointed at by the "--reference" option is a gitfile that points at another place. Waiting for comments. * fc/transport-helper-error-reporting (2013-04-11) 3 commits - transport-helper: improve push messages - transport-helper: mention helper name when it dies - transport-helper: report errors properly Rerolled enough times.

Will merge to 'master'. * jn/add-2.0-u-A-sans-pathspec (2013-04-03) 6 commits - git add: -u/-A now affects the entire working tree (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-05 at eae93ef) + add -A: only show pathless 'add -A' warning when changes exist outside cwd + add -u: only show pathless 'add -u' warning when changes exist outside cwd + add: make warn_pathless_add() a no-op after first call + add: add a blank line at the end of pathless 'add [-u|-A]' warning + add: make pathless 'add [-u|-A]' warning a file-global function "git add -u/-A" without any pathspec traditionally limited its operation to the current directory when run from a subdirectory, but in Git 2.0, they will affect the entire working tree. Start training users to explicitly say "." or ":/" to smooth out the transition hump with the earlier parts of this series, and flip the default as the final step. Will merge to 'master' the early bits and cook the rest in 'next' until Git 2.0. * tr/packed-object-info-wo-recursion (2013-03-27) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-03-29 at b1c3858) + sha1_file: remove recursion in unpack_entry + Refactor parts of in_delta_base_cache/cache_or_unpack_entry + sha1_file: remove recursion in packed_object_info Attempts to reduce the stack footprint of sha1_object_info() and unpack_entry() codepaths.

If you did this in a working tree that tracks dir/lost and dir/another: $ rm dir/lost $ edit dir/another $ git add dir The last step will not only notices and records updated dir/another, but also notices and records the removal of dir/lost in the index. Start training the users for this change to say --no-all when they want to ignore the removal to smooth the transition hump. Will merge to 'master' the early bits and cook the rest in 'next' until Git 2.0. * tr/line-log (2013-04-12) 11 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-15 at 504559e) + log -L: improve comments in process_all_files() + log -L: store the path instead of a diff_filespec + log -L: test merge of parallel modify/rename + t4211: pass -M to 'git log -M -L...' test (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-05 at 5afb00c) + log -L: fix overlapping input ranges + log -L: check range set invariants when we look it up (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-01 at 5be920c) + Speed up log -L... -M + log -L: :pattern:file syntax to find by funcname + Implement line-history search (git log -L) + Export rewrite_parents() for 'log -L' + Refactor parse_loc * jc/push-2.0-default-to-simple (2013-04-03) 13 commits - push: switch default from "matching" to "simple" (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-05 at 1b42c19) + t5570: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5551: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5550: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t9401: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t9400: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t7406: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5531: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5519: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5517: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5516: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5505: do not assume the "matching" push is the default + t5404: do not assume the "matching" push is the default Update the test suite that still assumed the push.default will forever be 'matching'.

[EXPLAIN BETTER] run-command: add new check_command helper fc/transport-helper-error-reporting supersedes this topic. * jc/gg (2013-04-08) 3 commits . commit: add get_commit_encoding() . commit: rename parse_commit_date() . commit: shrink "indegree" field (this branch uses jc/decorate.) * mc/count-objects-kibibytes (2013-04-14) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-14 at ff03f2b) + Revert "count-objects: output "KiB" instead of "kilobytes"" (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-05 at f4e50e8) + count-objects: output "KiB" instead of "kilobytes" The command reports the total diskspace used to store loose objects in kibibytes, but it was labelled as "kilobytes". The number now is shown with "KiB", e.g. "6750 objects, 50928 KiB". If you have scripts that decide when to run "git repack" by parsing the output from "git count-objects", this release may break them. Sorry about that. One of the scripts shipped by git-core itself also had to be adjusted. You may want to consider updating such scripts to always call "git gc --auto" to let it decide when to repack for you. Discarded. * jc/decorate (2013-04-07) 2 commits - decorate: add "clear_decoration()" - decorate: document API (this branch is used by jc/gg.) Discarded. * kb/status-ignored-optim (2013-03-19) 8 commits (merged to 'next' on 2013-04-01 at 0c12ed9) + dir.c: git-status: avoid is_excluded checks for tracked files + dir.c: replace is_path_excluded with now equivalent is_excluded API + dir.c: unify is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs + dir.c: move prep_exclude and factor out parts of last_exclude_matching + dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list empty directories as ignored + dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list empty ignored directories + dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list files in ignored directories + dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't drop ignored directories "git status --ignored" had many corner case bugs. Also the command has been optimized by taking advantage of the fact that paths that are already known to the index do not have to be checked against the .gitignore mechanism most of the time.
