--------------------------------------------------
[Graduated to "master"]
* es/name-hash-no-trailing-slash-in-dirs (2013-09-17) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-20 at 9633d9a)
+ dir: revert work-around for retired dangerous behavior
+ name-hash: stop storing trailing '/' on paths in index_state.dir_hash
+ employ new explicit "exists in index?" API
+ name-hash: refactor polymorphic index_name_exists()
Clean up the internal of the name-hash mechanism used to work
around case insensitivity on some filesystems to cleanly fix a
long-standing API glitch where the caller of cache_name_exists()
that ask about a directory with a counted string was required to
have '/' at one location past the end of the string.
* jc/checkout-detach-doc (2013-09-11) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-17 at 438cf13)
+ checkout: update synopsys and documentation on detaching HEAD
"git checkout [--detach] <commit>" was listed poorly in the
synopsis section of its documentation.
* jc/reflog-doc (2013-06-19) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-25 at 4eb0c14)
+ setup_reflog_action: document the rules for using GIT_REFLOG_ACTION
Document rules to use GIT_REFLOG_ACTION variable in the scripted
Porcelain. git-rebase--interactive locally violates them, but it
is a leaf user that does not call out to or dot-source other
scripts, so it does not urgently need to be fixed.
* jk/clone-progress-to-stderr (2013-09-18) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-25 at 137af9e)
+ clone: always set transport options
+ clone: treat "checking connectivity" like other progress
+ clone: send diagnostic messages to stderr
Some progress and diagnostic messages from "git clone" were
incorrectly sent to the standard output stream, not to the standard
error stream.
* jk/format-patch-from (2013-09-20) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-20 at 0506530)
+ format-patch: print in-body "From" only when needed
"format-patch --from=<whom>" forgot to omit unnecessary in-body
from line, i.e. when <whom> is the same as the real author.
* jk/trailing-slash-in-pathspec (2013-09-13) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-17 at 18fe277)
+ reset: handle submodule with trailing slash
+ rm: re-use parse_pathspec's trailing-slash removal
Code refactoring.
* lc/filter-branch-too-many-refs (2013-09-12) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-17 at 31cd01a)
+ Allow git-filter-branch to process large repositories with lots of branches.
"git filter-branch" in a repository with many refs blew limit of
command line length.
* sb/repack-in-c (2013-09-17) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-09-25 at 7c47036)
+ repack: improve warnings about failure of renaming and removing files
+ repack: retain the return value of pack-objects
+ repack: rewrite the shell script in C
Rerolled, and I think it is in a reasonably good shape.
--------------------------------------------------
[New Topics]
* mm/checkout-auto-track-fix (2013-10-18) 2 commits
- checkout: proper error message on 'git checkout foo bar --'
- checkout: allow dwim for branch creation for "git checkout $branch --"
"git checkout topic", when there is not yet a local "topic" branch
but there is a unique remote-tracking branch for a remote "topic"
branch, pretended as if "git checkout -t -b topic remote/$r/topic"
(for that unique remote $r) was run. This hack however was not
implemented for "git checkout topic --".
Will merge to 'next'.
* hn/log-graph-color-octopus (2013-10-18) 1 commit
- graph: fix coloring around octopus merges
Will merge to 'next'.
* nd/gc-lock-against-each-other (2013-10-18) 1 commit
- gc: remove gc.pid file at end of execution
Will merge to 'next'.
--------------------------------------------------
[Stalled]
* np/pack-v4 (2013-09-18) 90 commits
- packv4-parse.c: add tree offset caching
- t1050: replace one instance of show-index with verify-pack
- index-pack, pack-objects: allow creating .idx v2 with .pack v4
- unpack-objects: decode v4 trees
- unpack-objects: allow to save processed bytes to a buffer
- ...
Nico and Duy advancing the eternal vaporware pack-v4. This is here
primarily for wider distribution of the preview edition.
* sc/doc-howto-dumb-http (2013-10-16) 1 commit
. doc/howto: warn about (dumb)http server document being too old
The new text needs to go somewhere in the body of the document,
not before the title line.
* tr/merge-recursive-index-only (2013-07-07) 3 commits
- merge-recursive: -Xindex-only to leave worktree unchanged
- merge-recursive: untangle double meaning of o->call_depth
- merge-recursive: remove dead conditional in update_stages()
Holding until there is a caller to learn from.
* jc/ref-excludes (2013-09-03) 2 commits
- document --exclude option
- revision: introduce --exclude=<glob> to tame wildcards
People often wished a way to tell "git log --branches" (and "git
log --remotes --not --branches") to exclude some local branches
from the expansion of "--branches" (similarly for "--tags", "--all"
and "--glob=<pattern>"). Now they have one.
Needs a matching change to rev-parse.
* rv/send-email-cache-generated-mid (2013-08-21) 2 commits
- git-send-email: Cache generated message-ids, use them when prompting
- git-send-email: add optional 'choices' parameter to the ask sub
* rj/read-default-config-in-show-ref-pack-refs (2013-06-17) 3 commits
- ### DONTMERGE: needs better explanation on what config they need
- pack-refs.c: Add missing call to git_config()
- show-ref.c: Add missing call to git_config()
The changes themselves are probably good, but it is unclear what
basic setting needs to be read for which exact operation.
Waiting for clarification.
$gmane/228294
* jh/shorten-refname (2013-05-07) 4 commits
- t1514: refname shortening is done after dereferencing symbolic refs
- shorten_unambiguous_ref(): Fix shortening refs/remotes/origin/HEAD to origin
- t1514: Demonstrate failure to correctly shorten "refs/remotes/origin/HEAD"
- t1514: Add tests of shortening refnames in strict/loose mode
When remotes/origin/HEAD is not a symbolic ref, "rev-parse
--abbrev-ref remotes/origin/HEAD" ought to show "origin", not
"origin/HEAD", which is fixed with this series (if it is a symbolic
ref that points at remotes/origin/something, then it should show
"origin/something" and it already does).
Expecting a reroll, as an early part of a larger series.
$gmane/225137
* jc/format-patch (2013-04-22) 2 commits
- format-patch: --inline-single
- format-patch: rename "no_inline" field
A new option to send a single patch to the standard output to be
appended at the bottom of a message. 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.
* jk/gitweb-utf8 (2013-04-08) 4 commits
- gitweb: Fix broken blob action parameters on blob/commitdiff pages
- gitweb: Don't append ';js=(0|1)' to external links
- gitweb: Make feed title valid utf8
- gitweb: Fix utf8 encoding for blob_plain, blobdiff_plain, commitdiff_plain, and patch
Various fixes to gitweb.
Drew Northup volunteered to take a look into this.
$gmane/226216
* jc/show-branch (2013-06-07) 5 commits
- show-branch: use commit slab to represent bitflags of arbitrary width
- show-branch.c: remove "all_mask"
- show-branch.c: abstract out "flags" operation
- show-branch.c: lift all_mask/all_revs to a global static
- show-branch.c: update comment style
Waiting for the final step to lift the hard-limit before sending it out.
--------------------------------------------------
[Cooking]
* fc/styles (2013-10-16) 7 commits

- archive.c: have SP around arithmetic operators
- alloc.c: have SP around arithmetic operators
- abspath.c: have SP around arithmetic operators
- alias: have SP around arithmetic operators
- C: have space around && and || operators
C coding style fixes. The ones near the tip have not been sent to
the list yet (they cover the same kind of style violation as the
second one) and I may either send them or drop some of them if they
turn out to conflict with other work in flight---I still haven't
caught up with the backlog and do not know.
* jk/remote-literal-string-leakfix (2013-10-15) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-18 at 6abddac)
+ remote: do not copy "origin" string literal
Will merge to 'master'.
* jk/split-broken-ident (2013-10-15) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-18 at 8f4b8b7)
+ split_ident: parse timestamp from end of line
Make the fall-back parsing of commit objects with broken author or
committer lines more robust to pick up the timestamps.
Will merge to 'master'.
* sg/prompt-svn-remote-fix (2013-10-15) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-18 at 20b47eb)
+ bash prompt: don't use '+=' operator in show upstream code path
Bash portability fix.
Will merge to 'master'.
* sg/t3600-nul-sha1-fix (2013-10-16) 1 commit
- t3600: fix broken "choking git rm" test
Will merge to 'next'.
* mg/more-textconv (2013-05-10) 7 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at 8a12490)
+ grep: honor --textconv for the case rev:path
+ grep: allow to use textconv filters
+ t7008: demonstrate behavior of grep with textconv
+ cat-file: do not die on --textconv without textconv filters
+ show: honor --textconv for blobs
+ diff_opt: track whether flags have been set explicitly
+ t4030: demonstrate behavior of show with textconv
Make "git grep" and "git show" pay attention to --textconv when
dealing with blob objects.
Will merge to 'master'.
* ak/submodule-foreach-quoting (2013-09-27) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at d77c5f1)
+ submodule foreach: skip eval for more than one argument
A behavior change, but a worthwhile one: "git submodule foreach"
was treating its arguments as part of a single command to be
concatenated and passed to a shell, making writing buggy
scripts too easy.
This patch preserves the old "just pass it to the shell" behavior
when a single argument is passed to 'git submodule foreach' and
moves to a new "skip the shell and use the arguments passed
unmolested" behavior when more than one argument is passed.
The old behavior (always concatenating and passing to the shell)
was similar to the 'ssh' command, while the new behavior (switching
on the number of arguments) is what 'xterm -e' does.
May need more thought to make sure this change is advertised well
so that scripts that used multiple arguments but added their own
extra layer of quoting are not broken.
* ew/keepalive (2013-10-16) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-16 at 56fd9f3)
+ http: use curl's tcp keepalive if available
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at 24d786f)
+ http: enable keepalive on TCP sockets
Will merge to 'master'.
* hu/cherry-pick-previous-branch (2013-10-10) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at 090934f)
+ cherry-pick: handle "-" after parsing options
"git cherry-pick" without further options would segfault.
Could use a follow-up to handle '-' after argv[1] better.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jc/pack-objects (2013-02-04) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at 8e8feb6)
+ pack-objects: shrink struct object_entry
Will merge to 'master'.
* jc/prompt-upstream (2013-10-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at 270ef7b)
+ git-prompt.sh: optionally show upstream branch name
An enhancement to the GIT_PS1_SHOWUPSTREAM facility.
Will merge to 'master'.

- remote-curl: store url as a strbuf
- remote-curl: make refs_url a strbuf
- http: update base URLs when we see redirects

(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at a0642be)
+ http: refactor options to http_get_*
+ http_request: factor out curlinfo_strbuf
+ http_get_file: style fixes
Handle the case where http transport gets redirected during the
authorization request better.
Will merge to 'next'.
* jl/submodule-mv (2013-10-13) 1 commit
- mv: Fix spurious warning when moving a file in presence of submodules
Moving a regular file in a repository with a .gitmodules file was
producing a warning 'Could not find section in .gitmodules where
path=<filename>'.
Will merge to 'next'.
* yt/shortened-rename (2013-10-18) 2 commits
- SQUASH??? style fixes and s/omit/shorten/ where appropriate
- diff.c: keep arrow(=>) on show_stats()'s shortened filename part to make rename visible
Attempts to give more weight on the fact that a filepair represents
a rename than showing substring of the actual path when diffstat
lines are not wide enough.
I am not sure if that is solving a right problem, though.
* bc/gnome-keyring (2013-10-16) 16 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-18 at 25024aa)

+ contrib/git-credential-gnome-keyring.c: add static where applicable
+ contrib/git-credential-gnome-keyring.c: *style* use "if ()" not "if()" etc.
+ contrib/git-credential-gnome-keyring.c: remove unused die() function
+ contrib/git-credential-gnome-keyring.c: remove unnecessary pre-declarations
Cleanups and tweaks for credential handling to work with ancient versions
of the gnome-keyring library that are still in use.
Will merge to 'master'.
* kb/fast-hashmap (2013-10-18) 12 commits

- remove old hash.[ch] implementation
- read-cache.c: fix memory leaks caused by removed cache entries
- name-hash.c: remove cache entries instead of marking them CE_UNHASHED

Improvements to our hash table to get it to meet the needs of the
msysgit fscache project, with some nice performance improvements.
Replaced with a newer reroll; the tip one needs to be replaced with
the version from Jens and should come before any of them.
* jc/revision-range-unpeel (2013-10-15) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-16 at d04ddfe)
+ revision: do not peel tags used in range notation
"git rev-list --objects ^v1.0^ v1.0" gave v1.0 tag itself in the
output, but "git rev-list --objects v1.0^..v1.0" did not.
Will merge to 'master'.
* tg/perf-lib-test-perf-cleanup (2013-09-19) 2 commits
- perf-lib: add test_perf_cleanup target
- perf-lib: split starting the test from the execution
Add test_perf_cleanup shell function to the perf suite, that allows
the script writers to define a test with a clean-up action.
Holding until needed.
* po/dot-url (2013-10-15) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-15 at 312d0af)
+ doc/cli: make "dot repository" an independent bullet point

in the documentation.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jc/upload-pack-send-symref (2013-09-17) 7 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-16 at eb1ae25)
+ clone: test the new HEAD detection logic
+ connect: annotate refs with their symref information in get_remote_head()
+ connect.c: make parse_feature_value() static
+ upload-pack: send non-HEAD symbolic refs
+ upload-pack: send symbolic ref information as capability
+ upload-pack.c: do not pass confusing cb_data to mark_our_ref()
+ t5505: fix "set-head --auto with ambiguous HEAD" test
One long-standing flaw in the pack transfer protocol used by "git
clone" was that there was no way to tell the other end which branch
"HEAD" points at, and the receiving end needed to guess. A new
capability has been defined in the pack protocol to convey this
information so that cloning from a repository with more than one
branches pointing at the same commit where the HEAD is at now
reliably sets the initial branch in the resulting repository.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jx/relative-path-regression-fix (2013-10-14) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-18 at b4af45f)
+ Use simpler relative_path when set_git_dir
(merged to 'next' on 2013-10-14 at 704b9ee)
+ relative_path should honor dos-drive-prefix
+ test: use unambigous leading path (/foo) for MSYS
Will merge to 'master' and later to 'maint'.
* jn/add-2.0-u-A-sans-pathspec (2013-04-26) 1 commit

Will cook in 'next' until Git 2.0.
* jc/core-checkstat-2.0 (2013-05-06) 1 commit

Will cook in 'next' until Git 2.0.
* jc/add-2.0-ignore-removal (2013-04-22) 1 commit
- git add <pathspec>... defaults to "-A"
Updated endgame for "git add <pathspec>" that defaults to "--all"
aka "--no-ignore-removal".
Will cook in 'next' until Git 2.0.
* jc/hold-diff-remove-q-synonym-for-no-deletion (2013-07-19) 1 commit
- diff: remove "diff-files -q" in a version of Git in a distant future
Will cook in 'next' until a distant future.
--------------------------------------------------
[Discarded]
* jc/pull-training-wheel (2013-07-19) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2013-08-28 at c39bd15)
+ pull: require choice between rebase/merge on non-fast-forward pull
Make "git pull" (without arguments that say what branch to
integrate from where) refuse with "it does not fast forward; choose
between 'pull --merge' and 'pull --rebase'".
This topic has been reverted from 'next'. Will wait for the
conclusion of the discussion to seek a more user-friendly
alternative; it is likely that it will be based on the simpler
approach Felipe posted earlier.
