Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.
Hopefully we can merge a few more topics slated for 'master' before
cutting an early preview release -rc0 tomorrow. Many of the topics
that are in 'next' have sizable impact on the codebase and I'd feel
safer to keep them cooking for the remainder of the cycle.
Also I am still waiting for acks for a few topics before merging
them to 'next'. I would feel it would be good if we can merge them
early to 'next' for wider and longer exposure and some of them may
even deserve to be in -rc1, but as none of them is a regression fix,
it is also OK to wait until 2.0 final.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

Tentatively queued what I expect to receive via Paul Mackerras.
* bg/rebase-off-of-previous-branch (2014-04-16) 1 commit
- git-rebase: print name of rev when using shorthand
Teach "git rebase -" to report the concrete name of the branch
(i.e. the previous one).
But it stops short and does not do the same for "git rebase @{-1}".
* ef/send-email-absolute-path-to-the-command (2014-04-16) 1 commit
- send-email: recognize absolute path on Windows

- t7410: 210 tests for various 'git submodule update' scenarios
* jx/i18n (2014-04-17) 3 commits
- i18n: only extract comments marked with "TRANSLATORS:"
- i18n: remove obsolete comments for translators in diffstat generation
- i18n: fix uncatchable comments for translators in date.c
The tip one is somewhat unfortunate to force us deviate from our
multi-line comment formatting convention when writing comments for
translators.
* rs/ref-update-check-errors-early (2014-04-17) 2 commits
- commit.c: check for lock error and return early
- sequencer.c: check for lock failure and bail early in fast_forward_to
* sk/svn-parse-datestamp (2014-04-17) 1 commit

* fc/publish-vs-upstream (2014-04-11) 8 commits
- sha1_name: add support for @{publish} marks
- sha1_name: simplify track finding
- sha1_name: cleanup interpret_branch_name()
- branch: display publish branch
- push: add --set-publish option
- branch: add --set-publish-to option
- Add concept of 'publish' branch
- t5516 (fetch-push): fix test restoration
Add branch@{publish}; it seems that this is somewhat different from
Ram and Peff started working on. There are still many discussion
messages going back and forth but not updates to the patches.
Seems to have some interactions to break t5516 when merged to 'pu'.
* tr/merge-recursive-index-only (2014-02-05) 3 commits
- merge-recursive: -Xindex-only to leave worktree unchanged
- merge-recursive: internal flag to avoid touching the worktree
- merge-recursive: remove dead conditional in update_stages()
(this branch is used by tr/remerge-diff.)
Will hold.
* tr/remerge-diff (2014-02-26) 5 commits
. log --remerge-diff: show what the conflict resolution changed
. name-hash: allow dir hashing even when !ignore_case
. merge-recursive: allow storing conflict hunks in index
. revision: fold all merge diff variants into an enum merge_diff_mode
. combine-diff: do not pass revs->dense_combined_merges redundantly
(this branch uses tr/merge-recursive-index-only.)
"log -p" output learns a new way to let users inspect a merge
commit by showing the differences between the automerged result
with conflicts the person who recorded the merge would have seen
and the final conflict resolution that was recorded in the merge.
Needs to be rebased, now kb/fast-hashmap topic is in.
* bc/blame-crlf-test (2014-02-18) 1 commit
- blame: add a failing test for a CRLF issue.
I have a feeling that a fix for this should be fairly isolated and
trivial (it should be just the matter of paying attention to the
crlf settings when synthesizing the fake commit)---perhaps somebody
can squash in a fix to this?
* jk/makefile (2014-02-05) 16 commits
- FIXUP
- move LESS/LV pager environment to Makefile
- Makefile: teach scripts to include make variables
- FIXUP
- Makefile: auto-build C strings from make variables
- Makefile: drop *_SQ variables
- FIXUP
- Makefile: add c-quote helper function
- Makefile: introduce sq function for shell-quoting
- Makefile: always create files via make-var
- Makefile: store GIT-* sentinel files in MAKE/
- Makefile: prefer printf to echo for GIT-*
- Makefile: use tempfile/mv strategy for GIT-*
- Makefile: introduce make-var helper function
- Makefile: fix git-instaweb dependency on gitweb
- Makefile: drop USE_GETTEXT_SCHEME from GIT-CFLAGS
Simplify the Makefile rules and macros that exist primarily for
quoting purposes, and make it easier to robustly express the
dependency rules.
Expecting a reroll.
* po/everyday-doc (2014-01-27) 1 commit
- Make 'git help everyday' work
This may make the said command to emit something, but the source is
not meant to be formatted into a manual pages to begin with, and
also its contents are a bit stale. It may be a good first step in
the right direction, but needs more work to at least get the
mark-up right before public consumption.
Will hold.
* jk/branch-at-publish-rebased (2014-01-17) 5 commits
. t1507 (rev-parse-upstream): fix typo in test title
. implement @{publish} shorthand
. branch_get: provide per-branch pushremote pointers
. branch_get: return early on error
. sha1_name: refactor upstream_mark
Give an easier access to the tracking branches from "other" side in
a triangular workflow by introducing B@{publish} that works in a
similar way to how B@{upstream} does.
Meant to be used as a basis for whatever Ram wants to build on.
Ejected from 'pu' to make room for fc/publish-vs-upstream topic.
* rb/merge-prepare-commit-msg-hook (2014-01-10) 4 commits
- merge: drop unused arg from abort_commit method signature
- merge: make prepare_to_commit responsible for write_merge_state
- t7505: ensure cleanup after hook blocks merge
- t7505: add missing &&
Expose more merge states (e.g. $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MODE) to hooks that
run during "git merge". The log message stresses too much on one
hook, prepare-commit-msg, but it would equally apply to other hooks
like post-merge, I think.
Waiting for a reroll.
* jl/submodule-recursive-checkout (2013-12-26) 5 commits
- Teach checkout to recursively checkout submodules
- submodule: teach unpack_trees() to update submodules
- submodule: teach unpack_trees() to repopulate submodules
- submodule: teach unpack_trees() to remove submodule contents
- submodule: prepare for recursive checkout of submodules
An RFCv2 exists ($gmane/241455) with sizable review comments.
Expecting a reroll.
* jc/graph-post-root-gap (2013-12-30) 3 commits
- WIP: document what we want at the end
- graph: remove unused code a bit
- graph: stuff the current commit into graph->columns[]
This was primarily a RFH ($gmane/239580).
* 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.
Needs to be rebased, now the pack-bitmap series is in.
* 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.
Will hold.
* 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.
* jc/show-branch (2014-03-24) 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.

* fc/prompt-zsh-read-from-file (2014-04-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-16 at 0e5fec0)
+ prompt: fix missing file errors in zsh
Will merge to 'master'.
* fc/transport-helper-sync-error-fix (2014-04-14) 5 commits
- transport-helper: fix sync issue on crashes
- transport-helper: trivial cleanup
- transport-helper: propagate recvline() error pushing
- remote-helpers: make recvline return an error
- transport-helper: remove barely used xchgline()
Make sure the marks are not written out when the transport helper
did not finish happily, to avoid marks file that is out of sync
with the reality.
As I had to resolve some conflicts with the recent code, will wait
until getting an OK from Felipe on the conflict resolution and then
hopefully can be merged to 'next' and then later to 'master'.
* km/avoid-non-function-return-in-rebase (2014-04-17) 2 commits
- Revert "rebase: fix run_specific_rebase's use of "return" on FreeBSD"
- rebase: avoid non-function use of "return" on FreeBSD
Work around /bin/sh that does not like "return" at the top-level
of a file that is dot-sourced from inside a function definition.
Will merge to 'next' after the discussion on in-code comment settles.
We may want to merge it to 'master' by -rc1 if no regressions are
reported.
* db/make-with-curl (2014-04-15) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-16 at b9c8527)
+ Makefile: allow static linking against libcurl
+ Makefile: use curl-config to determine curl flags
Ask curl-config how to link with the curl library, instead of
having only a limited configurability knobs in the Makefile.
Will merge to 'master' by -rc1 if no regressions are reported.
* nd/index-pack-one-fd-per-thread (2014-04-16) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-16 at b38d5a9)
+ index-pack: work around thread-unsafe pread()
Enable threaded index-pack on platforms without thread-unsafe
pread() emulation.
Will keep in 'next' for the remainder of the cycle.
* fc/complete-aliased-push (2014-04-09) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-16 at ab798d1)
+ completion: fix completing args of aliased "push", "fetch", etc.
Will merge to 'master'.
* fc/remote-helper-fixes (2014-04-14) 5 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-16 at 180482e)
+ remote-bzr: trivial test fix
+ remote-bzr: include authors field in pushed commits
+ remote-bzr: add support for older versions
+ remote-hg: always normalize paths
+ remote-helpers: allow all tests running from any dir
Will merge to 'master'.
* ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race (2014-04-10) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-16 at cb92f4f)
+ read-cache.c: verify index file before we opportunistically update it
+ wrapper.c: add xpread() similar to xread()
Read-only operations such as "git status" that internally refreshes
the index write out the refreshed index to the disk to optimize
future accesses to the working tree, but this could race with a
"read-write" operation that modify the index while it is running.
Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.
Duy raised a good point that we may need to do the same for the
normal writeout codepath, not just the "opportunistic" update
codepath. While that is true, nobody sane would be running two
simultaneous operations that are clearly write-oriented competing
with each other against the same index file. So in that sense that
can be done as a less urgent follow-up for this topic.
Will keep in 'next' for the remainder of the cycle.
* jl/status-added-submodule-is-never-ignored (2014-04-07) 2 commits
- commit -m: commit staged submodules regardless of ignore config
- status/commit: show staged submodules regardless of ignore config
There also are a few patches Ronald Weiss and Jens are working on
polishing around this topic, and a patch from Jens each for gitk
and git-gui.
Waiting for the dust to settle until picking them up all.
* mh/lockfile (2014-04-15) 25 commits
- trim_last_path_elm(): replace last_path_elm()
- resolve_symlink(): take a strbuf parameter
- resolve_symlink(): use a strbuf for internal scratch space
- change lock_file::filename into a strbuf
- commit_lock_file(): use a strbuf to manage temporary space

- rollback_lock_file(): set fd to -1
- rollback_lock_file(): do not clear filename redundantly
- api-lockfile: expand the documentation
- unable_to_lock_die(): rename function from unable_to_lock_index_die()
Refactor and fix corner-case bugs in the lockfile API, all looked
sensible.
Expecting a reroll.
* mt/patch-id-stable (2014-03-31) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-08 at 0188d44)
+ patch-id-test: test --stable and --unstable flags
+ patch-id: document new behaviour
+ patch-id: make it stable against hunk reordering
Introduce a new way to compute patch-id for a patch that is not
affected by the order of the paths that appear in the input.
This changes the generated patch-id unless the users add an extra
option to their command lines, but I deliberately queued the series
to 'next' without reverting that compatibility breakage to see if
people complain. It could be that we do not have to worry about
the default flipping at all. We'll see.
Will keep in 'next' for the remainder of the cycle.
* mh/ref-transaction (2014-04-07) 27 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-16 at a99f84d)
+ ref_transaction_commit(): work with transaction->updates in place
+ struct ref_update: add a type field
+ struct ref_update: add a lock field
+ ref_transaction_commit(): simplify code using temporary variables
+ struct ref_update: store refname as a FLEX_ARRAY

+ update-ref --stdin: simplify error messages for missing oldvalues
+ update-ref --stdin: make error messages more consistent
+ update-ref --stdin: improve error messages for invalid values
+ update-ref.c: extract a new function, parse_refname()
+ parse_cmd_verify(): copy old_sha1 instead of evaluating <oldvalue> twice

Update "update-ref --stdin [-z]" and then introduce a transactional
support for (multi-)reference updates.
Will keep in 'next' for the remainder of the cycle.
* jc/apply-ignore-whitespace (2014-03-26) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-04 at 53779a7)
+ apply --ignore-space-change: lines with and without leading whitespaces do not match
"--ignore-space-change" option of "git apply" ignored the
spaces at the beginning of line too aggressively, which is
inconsistent with the option of the same name "diff" and "git diff"
have.
Will keep in 'next' for the remainder of the cycle.
* as/grep-fullname-config (2014-03-20) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-03-28 at 810a076)
+ grep: add grep.fullName config variable
Add a configuration variable to force --full-name to be default for
"git grep".
This may cause regressions on scripted users that do not expect
this new behaviour.
Will keep in 'next' for the remainder of the cycle.
* nd/multiple-work-trees (2014-03-25) 28 commits
- count-objects: report unused files in $GIT_DIR/repos/...
- gc: support prune --repos
- gc: style change -- no SP before closing bracket
- prune: strategies for linked checkouts
- checkout: detach if the branch is already checked out elsewhere
- checkout: clean up half-prepared directories in --to mode
- checkout: support checking out into a new working directory
- use new wrapper write_file() for simple file writing
- wrapper.c: wrapper to open a file, fprintf then close
- setup.c: support multi-checkout repo setup
- setup.c: detect $GIT_COMMON_DIR check_repository_format_gently()
- setup.c: convert check_repository_format_gently to use strbuf
- setup.c: detect $GIT_COMMON_DIR in is_git_directory()
- setup.c: convert is_git_directory() to use strbuf
- git-stash: avoid hardcoding $GIT_DIR/logs/....

- git_path(): be aware of file relocation in $GIT_DIR
- path.c: group git_path(), git_pathdup() and strbuf_git_path() together
- path.c: rename vsnpath() to do_git_path()
- git_snpath(): retire and replace with strbuf_git_path()
- path.c: make get_pathname() call sites return const char *
- path.c: make get_pathname() return strbuf instead of static buffer
A replacement for contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir that does not
rely on symbolic links and make sharing of objects and refs safer
by making the borrowee and borrowers aware of each other.
Will hold.
* ks/tree-diff-nway (2014-04-09) 20 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-09 at c17228e)
+ mingw: activate alloca
(merged to 'next' on 2014-04-08 at 6b74773)
+ combine-diff: speed it up, by using multiparent diff tree-walker directly
+ tree-diff: rework diff_tree() to generate diffs for multiparent cases as well
+ Portable alloca for Git
(merged to 'next' on 2014-03-31 at 16a7bd4)
+ tree-diff: reuse base str(buf) memory on sub-tree recursion
+ tree-diff: no need to call "full" diff_tree_sha1 from show_path()
+ tree-diff: rework diff_tree interface to be sha1 based
+ tree-diff: diff_tree() should now be static
+ tree-diff: remove special-case diff-emitting code for empty-tree cases
(merged to 'next' on 2014-03-25 at cfcbdac)
+ tree-diff: simplify tree_entry_pathcmp
+ tree-diff: show_path prototype is not needed anymore
+ tree-diff: rename compare_tree_entry -> tree_entry_pathcmp
+ tree-diff: move all action-taking code out of compare_tree_entry()
+ tree-diff: don't assume compare_tree_entry() returns -1,0,1
(merged to 'next' on 2014-03-21 at d872679)
+ tree-diff: consolidate code for emitting diffs and recursion in one place
+ tree-diff: show_tree() is not needed
+ tree-diff: no need to pass match to skip_uninteresting()
+ tree-diff: no need to manually verify that there is no mode change for a path
+ combine-diff: move changed-paths scanning logic into its own function
+ combine-diff: move show_log_first logic/action out of paths scanning
Instead of running N pair-wise diff-trees when inspecting a
N-parent merge, find the set of paths that were touched by walking
N+1 trees in parallel. These set of paths can then be turned into
N pair-wise diff-tree results to be processed through rename
detections and such. And N=2 case nicely degenerates to the usual
2-way diff-tree, which is very nice.
Will keep in 'next' for the remainder of the cycle.
* cc/interpret-trailers (2014-04-07) 12 commits
- trailer: add blank line before the trailers if needed

- trailer: process trailers from stdin and arguments
- trailer: add data structures and basic functions
A new filter to programatically edit the tail end of the commit log
messages.
I was planning to merge it to 'next' and keep it there for the
remainder of the cycle, but it appears that there still will be
another round of reroll, at least for the documentation?
