Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.
Git 2.3.8 has been tagged; it contains Linus's favorite fix for "git
commit --date=now", among other things, and it will be the last for
2.3.x series for now.
We saw a few sizable topics rerolled this morning on the list;
sorry, but I didn't have time to get to them.
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"]
* ep/do-not-feed-a-pointer-to-array-size (2015-05-05) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 64d9a20)
+ git-compat-util.h: implement a different ARRAY_SIZE macro for for safely deriving the size of array
Catch a programmer mistake to feed a pointer not an array to
ARRAY_SIZE() macro, by using a couple of GCC extensions.
* jc/daemon-no-ipv6-for-2.4.1 (2015-05-05) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 1eb279f)
+ daemon: unbreak NO_IPV6 build regression
"git daemon" fails to build from the source under NO_IPV6
configuration (regression in 2.4).
* jc/hash-object (2015-05-05) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 9b81a06)
+ write_sha1_file(): do not use a separate sha1[] array
+ t1007: add hash-object --literally tests
+ hash-object --literally: fix buffer overrun with extra-long object type
+ git-hash-object.txt: document --literally option
"hash-object --literally" introduced in v2.2 was not prepared to
take a really long object type name.
* jc/plug-fmt-merge-msg-leak (2015-04-20) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at bd94828)
+ fmt-merge-msg: plug small leak of commit buffer
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
* jk/filter-branch-use-of-sed-on-incomplete-line (2015-04-29) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 849a24d)
+ filter-branch: avoid passing commit message through sed
"filter-branch" corrupted commit log message that ends with an
incomplete line on platforms with some "sed" implementations that
munge such a line. Work it around by avoiding to use "sed".
* jk/reading-packed-refs (2015-04-16) 9 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 89b5694)
+ t1430: add another refs-escape test
+ read_packed_refs: avoid double-checking sane refs
+ strbuf_getwholeline: use getdelim if it is available
+ strbuf_getwholeline: avoid calling strbuf_grow
+ strbuf_addch: avoid calling strbuf_grow
+ config: use getc_unlocked when reading from file
+ strbuf_getwholeline: use getc_unlocked
+ git-compat-util: add fallbacks for unlocked stdio
+ strbuf_getwholeline: use getc macro
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
An earlier rewrite to use strbuf_getwholeline() instead of fgets(3)
to read packed-refs file revealed that the former is unacceptably
inefficient.
* jk/rebase-quiet-noop (2015-04-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 82780b9)
+ rebase: silence "git checkout" for noop rebase
"git rebase --quiet" was not quite quiet when there is nothing to
do.
* jk/sha1-file-reduce-useless-warnings (2015-03-30) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at a8de68e)
+ sha1_file: squelch "packfile cannot be accessed" warnings
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
* jk/still-interesting (2015-04-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 6a5c89c)
+ limit_list: avoid quadratic behavior from still_interesting
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
"git rev-list --objects $old --not --all" to see if everything that
is reachable from $old is already connected to the existing refs
was very inefficient.
* jn/clean-use-error-not-fprintf-on-stderr (2015-05-04) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 12391f1)
+ config: use error() instead of fprintf(stderr, ...)
Some error messages in "git config" were emitted without calling
the usual error() facility.
* ld/p4-case-fold (2015-04-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 03ecbd0)
+ git-p4: add failing tests for case-folding p4d
* lm/squelch-bg-progress (2015-04-15) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at a2fe74d)
+ compat/mingw: stubs for getpgid() and tcgetpgrp()
+ progress: no progress in background
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
Many long-running operations show progress eye-candy, even when
they are later backgrounded. Hide the eye-candy when the process
is sent to the background instead.
* ls/p4-changes-block-size (2015-04-20) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 92596d4)
+ git-p4: use -m when running p4 changes
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
"git p4" learned "--changes-block-size <n>" to read the changes in
chunks from Perforce, instead of making one call to "p4 changes"
that may trigger "too many rows scanned" error from Perforce.
* mm/add-p-split-error (2015-04-16) 5 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at c556011)
+ stash -p: demonstrate failure of split with mixed y/n
+ t3904-stash-patch: factor PERL prereq at the top of the file
+ t3904-stash-patch: fix test description
+ add -p: demonstrate failure when running 'edit' after a split
+ t3701-add-interactive: simplify code
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-23
When "add--interactive" splits a hunk into two overlapping hunks
and then let the user choose only one, it sometimes feeds an
incorrect patch text to "git apply". Add tests to demonstrate
this.
I have a slight suspicion that this may be $gmane/87202 coming back
and biting us (I seem to have said "let's run with this and see
what happens" back then).

+ commit: use SEQ_DIR instead of hardcoding "sequencer"
+ fast-import: use git_path() for accessing .git dir instead of get_git_dir()
+ reflog: avoid constructing .lock path with 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
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-02
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.
* nd/slim-index-pack-memory-usage (2015-04-18) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 42bd845)
+ index-pack: kill union delta_base to save memory
+ index-pack: reduce object_entry size to save memory
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
Memory usage of "git index-pack" has been trimmed by tens of
per-cent.
* pt/credential-xdg (2015-03-25) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 0d6711f)
+ t0302: "unreadable" test needs POSIXPERM
+ t0302: test credential-store support for XDG_CONFIG_HOME
+ git-credential-store: support XDG_CONFIG_HOME
+ git-credential-store: support multiple credential files
(this branch is used by pt/xdg-config-path.)
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-03-25

XDG configuration file locations when specified.
* pt/xdg-config-path (2015-05-06) 7 commits

(this branch uses pt/credential-xdg.)
Code clean-up for xdg configuration path support.
* sb/prefix-path-free-results (2015-05-05) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 64f15a8)
+ prefix_path(): unconditionally free results in the callers
Code clean-up (not a leak-fix).
* sg/complete-decorate-full-not-long (2015-05-03) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 2beb429)
+ completion: fix and update 'git log --decorate=' options
The completion for "log --decorate=" parameter value was incorrect.

(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 00b4bd9)
+ completion: remove redundant __git_compute_all_commands() call
Code simplification.
* tb/blame-resurrect-convert-to-git (2015-05-03) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 8e1974e)
+ blame: CRLF in the working tree and LF in the repo
Some time ago, "git blame" (incorrectly) lost the convert_to_git()
call when synthesizing a fake "tip" commit that represents the
state in the working tree, which broke folks who record the history
with LF line ending to make their project portabile across
platforms while terminating lines in their working tree files with
CRLF for their platform.
* tb/t0027-crlf (2015-04-25) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 36accbb)
+ t0027: Add repoMIX and LF_nul
+ t0027: support NATIVE_CRLF platforms
+ t0027: cleanup: rename functions; avoid non-leading TABs
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-21
More line-ending tests.
* va/fix-git-p4-tests (2015-04-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 795e858)
+ git-p4: t9814: prevent --chain-lint failure

+ t9801: check git-p4's branch detection with client spec enabled
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-04-23
git p4 attempts to better handle branches in Perforce.
--------------------------------------------------
[New Topics]
* dl/branch-error-message (2015-05-06) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at ed947ab)
+ branch: do not call a "remote-tracking branch" a "remote branch"
Error messages from "git branch" called remote-tracking branches as
"remote branches".
Will merge to 'master'.
* dl/subtree-push-no-squash (2015-05-07) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 74d07ca)
+ contrib/subtree: there's no push --squash
"git subtree" script (in contrib/) does not have --squash option
when pushing, but the documentation and help text pretended as if
it did.
Will merge to 'master'.
* ld/p4-editor-multi-words (2015-05-07) 2 commits
- git-p4: fix handling of multi-word P4EDITOR
- git-p4: add failing test for P4EDITOR handling
Unlike "$EDITOR" and "$GIT_EDITOR" that can hold the path to the
command and initial options (e.g. "/path/to/emacs -nw"), 'git p4'
did not let the shell interpolate the contents of the environment
variable that name the editor "$P4EDITOR" (and "$EDITOR", too).
Make it in line with the rest of Git, as well as with Perforce.
Reported to break some tests that assume the non-interpolating
behaviour that need to be fixed.
* dl/subtree-avoid-tricky-echo (2015-05-08) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 36d4f0e)
+ contrib/subtree: portability fix for string printing
"git subtree" script (in contrib/) used "echo -n" to produce
progress messages in a non-portable way.
Will merge to 'master'.
* ls/http-ssl-cipher-list (2015-05-08) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 55764ce)
+ http: add support for specifying an SSL cipher list
Introduce http.<url>.SSLCipherList configuration variable to tweak
the list of cipher suite to be used with libcURL when talking with
https:// sites.
Will merge to 'master'.
* ps/bundle-verify-arg (2015-05-08) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 9f1b1ae)
+ bundle: verify arguments more strictly
"git bundle verify" did not diagnose extra parameters on the
command line.
Will merge to 'master'.
* sg/help-subcommands (2015-05-08) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 91e4f9e)
+ command-list.txt: fix whitespace inconsistency
A preparatory clean-up step.
Will merge to 'master'.

- t1404: new tests of D/F conflicts within ref transactions
(this branch uses mh/write-refs-sooner-2.2, mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3 and mh/write-refs-sooner-2.4.)
A reroll is posted, but haven't got a chance to pick it up yet.

Multi-ref transaction support we merged a few releases ago
unnecessarily kept many file descriptors open, risking to fail with
resource exhaustion.
* mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3 (2015-05-10) 1 commit
- Merge branch 'mh/write-refs-sooner' into mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3
(this branch is used by mh/ref-directory-file-2 and mh/write-refs-sooner-2.4; uses mh/write-refs-sooner-2.2.)
Multi-ref transaction support we merged a few releases ago
unnecessarily kept many file descriptors open, risking to fail with
resource exhaustion. This is for 2.3.x track.

- Merge branch 'mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3' into mh/write-refs-sooner-2.4
(this branch is used by mh/ref-directory-file-2; uses mh/write-refs-sooner-2.2 and mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3.)
Multi-ref transaction support we merged a few releases ago
unnecessarily kept many file descriptors open, risking to fail with
resource exhaustion. This is for 2.4.x track.
* sb/ref-lock-lose-lock-fd (2015-05-10) 1 commit
- refs.c: remove lock_fd from struct ref_lock
The refs API uses ref_lock struct which had its own "int fd", even
though the same file descriptor was in the lock struct it contains.
Clean-up the code to lose this redundant field.
Will merge to 'next'.

[Stalled]
* kk/log-merges-config (2015-04-21) 5 commits
- bash-completion: add support for git-log --merges= and log.merges

- Documentation: add git-log --merges= option and log.merges config. var
- log: honor log.merges= option
- revision: add --merges={show|only|hide} option
"git log" (but not other commands in the "log" family) learned to
pay attention to the log.merges configuration variable that can be
set to "show" (the normal behaviour), "only" (hide non-merge
commits), or "hide" (hide merge commits). --merges=(show|only|hide)
can be used to override the setting from the command line.
The documentation may need to be updated once more ($gmane/267250).
Waiting for a reroll.
* mg/httpd-tests-update-for-apache-2.4 (2015-04-08) 2 commits
- t/lib-git-svn: check same httpd module dirs as lib-httpd
- t/lib-httpd: load mod_unixd
This is the first two commits in a three-patch series $gmane/266962
Will be rerolled.

- handle_revision_opt(): use skip_prefix() in many places
- write_subdirectory(): use convert_ui() for parsing mode
- cacheinfo_callback(): use convert_ui() when handling "--cacheinfo"
- numparse: new module for parsing integral numbers
Many codepaths use unchecked use of strtol() and friends (or even
worse, atoi()). Introduce a set of wrappers that try to be more
careful.
Will be rerolled.
($gmane/268058).
* tf/gitweb-project-listing (2015-03-19) 5 commits
- gitweb: make category headings into links when they are directories

- gitweb: add a link under the search box to clear a project filter
- gitweb: if the PATH_INFO is incomplete, use it as a project_filter
- gitweb: fix typo in man page
Update gitweb to make it more pleasant to deal with a hierarchical
forest of repositories.
Any comments from those who use or have their own code in Gitweb?
* jc/a-lone-dash-stands-for-previous-branch (2015-03-16) 1 commit
- "-" and "@{-1}" on various programs
Lose special case code to make a lone dash "-" mean the previous
branch aka "@{-1}" from a handful subcommands, and instead support
the notation throughout the system by reimplementing it at the
revisions layer.
Needs tests, documentation updates, etc. Also does only a half-way
job dealing with range notation, which needs to be fixed before the
series goes anywhere.

whistles.
Reroll to base on wt-status work ($gmane/265142) has seen some
positive discussions.
Waiting for a further polished reroll ($gmane/265534).

. WIPWIP
. WIP: diff-b-m
- diffcore-rename: allow easier debugging
- diffcore-rename.c: add locate_rename_src()
- diffcore-break: allow debugging
"git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a
completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed
file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from
other place.
The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately.
* pw/remote-set-url-fetch (2014-11-26) 1 commit

with conflicts the person who recorded the merge would have seen
and the final conflict resolution that was recorded in the merge.

The Git subcommand completion (in contrib/) listed credential

(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 8176de7)
+ pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when wildcard is used
A heuristic to help the "git <cmd> <revs> <pathspec>" command line
convention to catch mistyped paths is to make sure all the non-rev
parameters in the later part of the command line are names of the
files in the working tree, but that means "git grep $str -- \*.c"
must always be disambiguated with "--", because nobody sane will
create a file whose name literally is asterisk-dot-see. Loosen the
heuristic to declare that with a wildcard string the user likely
meant to give us a pathspec.
Will merge to 'master' in the third batch.

Add more test coverage to "git pull". This conflicts slightly with
a new test jc/merge topic adds, but resolution is fairly trivial.

+ rebase -i: redo tasks that die during cherry-pick
"git rebase -i" moved the "current" command from "todo" to "done" a

(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 6ef85da)
+ ignore: info/exclude should trump core.excludesfile
core.excludesfile (defaulting to $XDG_HOME/git/ignore) is supposed
to be overridden by repository-specific .git/info/exclude file, but
the order was swapped from the beginning. This belatedly fixes it.

* jk/git-no-more-argv0-path-munging (2015-04-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at b3f9a45)
+ stop putting argv[0] dirname at front of PATH
We have prepended $GIT_EXEC_PATH and the path "git" is installed in
(typically "/usr/bin") to $PATH when invoking subprograms and hooks
for almost eternity, but the original use case the latter tried to
support was semi-bogus (i.e. install git to /opt/foo/git and run it
without having /opt/foo on $PATH), and more importantly it has
become less and less relevant as Git grew more mainstream (i.e. the
users would _want_ to have it on their $PATH). Stop prepending the
path in which "git" is installed to users' $PATH, as that would
interfere the command search order people depend on (e.g. they may
not like versions of programs that are unrelated to Git in /usr/bin
and want to override them by having different ones in /usr/local/bin
and have the latter directory earlier in their $PATH).
Will merge to 'master' in the third batch.
* jk/stash-require-clean-index (2015-04-22) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at b5f6c32)
+ stash: require a clean index to apply
+ t3903: avoid applying onto dirty index
+ t3903: stop hard-coding commit sha1s
"git stash pop/apply" forgot to make sure that not just the working
tree is clean but also the index is clean. The latter is important
as a stash application can conflict and the index will be used for
conflict resolution.
Will merge to 'master' in the third batch.
* jc/merge (2015-04-29) 15 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-07 at 1c56512)
+ merge: deprecate 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax
+ merge: handle FETCH_HEAD internally
+ merge: decide if we auto-generate the message early in collect_parents()
+ merge: make collect_parents() auto-generate the merge message

+ merge: clarify "pulling into void" special case
+ t5520: test pulling an octopus into an unborn branch
+ t5520: style fixes
+ merge: simplify code flow
+ merge: test the top-level merge driver
(this branch is used by jc/merge-drop-old-syntax.)
"git merge FETCH_HEAD" learned that the previous "git fetch" could
be to create an Octopus merge, i.e. recording multiple branches
that are not marked as "not-for-merge"; this allows us to lose an
old style invocation "git merge <msg> HEAD $commits..." in the
implementation of "git pull" script; the old style syntax can now
be deprecated.
Will merge to 'master' in the third batch.
* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
- merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax

Stop supporting "git merge <messsage> HEAD <commit>" syntax that
has been deprecated since October 2007.

Developer support to automatically detect broken &&-chain in the
test scripts is now turned on by default.

* bc/connect-plink (2015-04-28) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at 9def2e1)
+ connect: improve check for plink to reduce false positives
+ t5601: fix quotation error leading to skipped tests
+ connect: simplify SSH connection code path
The connection initiation code for "ssh" transport tried to absorb
differences between the stock "ssh" and Putty-supplied "plink" and
its derivatives, but the logic to tell that we are using "plink"
variants were too loose and falsely triggered when "plink" appeared
anywhere in the path (e.g. "/home/me/bin/uplink/ssh").
Will merge to 'master' in the third batch.
* jc/test-prereq-validate (2015-04-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at a30464c)

Help us to find broken test script that splits the body part of the
test by mistaken use of wrong kind of quotes.
Will merge to 'master' in the third batch.

A few usage string updates. The tip one still needs work.

- cat-file: teach cat-file a '--allow-unknown-type' option
- cat-file: make the options mutually exclusive
- sha1_file: support reading from a loose object of unknown type
Add the "--allow-unknown-type" option to "cat-file" to allow
inspecting loose objects of an experimental or a broken type.
Will merge to 'next'.
* nd/diff-i-t-a (2015-03-23) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-05-05 at cba9cd9)
+ diff-lib.c: adjust position of i-t-a entries in diff
Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-03-24
After "git add -N", the path appeared in output of "git diff HEAD"
and "git diff --cached HEAD", leading "git status" to classify it
as "Changes to be committed". Such a path, however, is not yet to
be scheduled to be committed. "git diff" showed the change to the
path as modification, not as a "new file", in the header of its
output.
Treat such paths as "yet to be added to the index but Git already
know about them"; "git diff HEAD" and "git diff --cached HEAD"
should not talk about them, and "git diff" should show them as new
files yet to be added to the index.
Will merge to 'master' in the third batch.
