Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.
We would need to start slowing down to prepare for -rc0 preview at
the end of this week and then feature freeze. Some topics that
joined 'next' late may want to stay there for the remainder of this
cycle. Many of the accumulated fixes have been flushed to 'maint'
and Git 2.0.3 has been tagged.
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/tag-sort (2014-07-17) 2 commits

+ tag: support configuring --sort via .gitconfig

Teach "git tag" to pay attention to "tag.sort" configuration, to be
used as the default sort order when no --sort=<value> is given.
* mb/local-clone-after-applying-insteadof (2014-07-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-07-21 at ebe07c2)
+ use local cloning if insteadOf makes a local URL
Apply the "if cloning from a local disk, physically copy repository
using hardlinks, unless otherwise told not to with --no-local"
optimization when url.*.insteadOf mechanism rewrites a "git clone
$URL" that refers to a repository over the network to a clone from
a local disk.
* rs/fix-unlink-unix-socket (2014-07-21) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-07-22 at fad8c29)
+ unix-socket: remove stale socket before calling chdir()
The unix-domain socket used by the sample credential cache daemon
tried to unlink an existing stale one at a wrong path, if the path
to the socket was given as an overlong path that does not fit in
sun_path member of the sockaddr_un structure.
* ta/string-list-init (2014-07-21) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-07-21 at 63e8891)

* 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}".
Expecting a reroll.
* 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()

"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.

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.
* 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. $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MODE) to hooks that
run during "git merge". The log message stresses too much on one
hook, prepare-commit-msg, but it would equally apply to other hooks
like post-merge, I think.
Waiting for a reroll.
* jc/graph-post-root-gap (2013-12-30) 3 commits
- WIP: document what we want at the end
- graph: remove unused code a bit
- graph: stuff the current commit into graph->columns[]
This was primarily a RFH ($gmane/239580).

- 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

- t7410: 210 tests for various 'git submodule update' scenarios
More or less abandoned. Will drop.
--------------------------------------------------
[Cooking]

Most of these are battle-tested in msysgit and are needed to
complete what has been merged to 'master' already.
A fix has been squashed into "Unicode environ (outgoing)"; is this
now ready to go?
* sk/mingw-tests-workaround (2014-07-21) 6 commits
- t800[12]: work around MSys limitation
- t9902: mingw-specific fix for gitfile link files

- MinGW: Skip test redirecting to fd 4
(this branch is used by jc/not-mingw-cygwin.)
Make tests pass on msysgit by mostly disabling ones that are
infeasible on that platform.
The t0110 one has been replaced; is this now ready to go?

(this branch uses sk/mingw-tests-workaround.)
We have been using NOT_{MINGW,CYGWIN} test prerequisites long
before Peff invented support for negated prerequisites e.g. !MINGW
and we still add more uses of the former. Convert them to the
latter to avoid confusion.
* jk/more-push-completion (2014-07-22) 3 commits
- completion: complete `git push --force-with-lease=`
- completion: add some missing options to `git push`

"git rebase --fork-point" did not filter out patch-identical
commits correctly.
Will merge to 'master'.

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.

- patch-id: change default to stable
Teaches "git patch-id" to compute the patch ID that does not change

is backward incompatible, the last bit to flip it to be the default
is left out of 'master' for now.
Will hold.
