What's cooking in git.git (Aug 2015, #01; Mon, 3)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.

Accumulated fixes went to a new maintenance release 2.4.8.  The
first batch of the post-2.5 development cycle has been merged to
'master', and the tip of 'next' has been rewound.

I've kicked a few topics out of 'next' back to 'pu' for now.

 - I think pt/am-builtin is more or less ready, but the fix to the
   issue that options given to 'git am' when restarting were
   rejected must be queued on that topic before we can start
   thinking of merging it to 'master' for the next release.

 - I think es/worktree-add and es/worktree-add-cleanup are good
   shape overall, but we probably would want to make them into a
   single topic.

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"]

* as/sparse-checkout-removal (2015-07-21) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-21 at ab94680)
 + unpack-trees: don't update files with CE_WT_REMOVE set

 "sparse checkout" misbehaved for a path that is excluded from the
 checkout when switching between branches that differ at the path.


* bc/gpg-verify-raw (2015-06-22) 7 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-24 at 08a1164)
 + verify-tag: add option to print raw gpg status information
 + verify-commit: add option to print raw gpg status information
 + gpg: centralize printing signature buffers
 + gpg: centralize signature check
 + verify-commit: add test for exit status on untrusted signature
 + verify-tag: share code with verify-commit
 + verify-tag: add tests

 "git verify-tag" and "git verify-commit" have been taught to share
 more code, and then learned to optionally show the verification
 message from the underlying GPG implementation.


* cb/parse-magnitude (2015-06-22) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-24 at 2fd7205)
 + parse-options: move unsigned long option parsing out of pack-objects.c
 + test-parse-options: update to handle negative ints

 Move machinery to parse human-readable scaled numbers like 1k, 4M,
 and 2G as an option parameter's value from pack-objects to
 parse-options API, to make it available to other codepaths.


* cb/uname-in-untracked (2015-07-17) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-21 at d867af0)
 + untracked: fix detection of uname(2) failure

 An experimental "untracked cache" feature used uname(2) in a
 slightly unportable way.


* da/subtree-date-confusion (2015-07-23) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-29 at 01016b1)
 + contrib/subtree: ignore log.date configuration

 "git subtree" (in contrib/) depended on "git log" output to be
 stable, which was a no-no.  Apply a workaround to force a
 particular date format.


* db/send-pack-user-signingkey (2015-07-21) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-29 at b0d62e9)
 + builtin/send-pack.c: respect user.signingkey

 The low-level "git send-pack" did not honor 'user.signingkey'
 configuration variable when sending a signed-push.


* dt/log-follow-config (2015-07-09) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at b8fbb43)
 + log: add "log.follow" configuration variable

 Add a new configuration variable to enable "--follow" automatically
 when "git log" is run with one pathspec argument.


* dt/refs-backend-preamble (2015-07-21) 7 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-23 at 9dac423)
 + git-stash: use update-ref --create-reflog instead of creating files
 + update-ref and tag: add --create-reflog arg
 + refs: add REF_FORCE_CREATE_REFLOG flag
 + git-reflog: add exists command
 + refs: new public ref function: safe_create_reflog
 + refs: break out check for reflog autocreation
 + refs.c: add err arguments to reflog functions
 (this branch is used by dt/refs-pseudo.)

 In preparation for allowing different "backends" to store the refs
 in a way different from the traditional "one ref per file in $GIT_DIR
 or in a $GIT_DIR/packed-refs file" filesystem storage, reduce
 direct filesystem access to ref-like things like CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
 from scripts and programs.


* ee/clean-remove-dirs (2015-06-26) 6 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-29 at d595659)
 + read_gitfile_gently: fix use-after-free
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-24 at 7c27821)
 + clean: improve performance when removing lots of directories
 + p7300: add performance tests for clean
 + t7300: add tests to document behavior of clean and nested git
 + setup: sanity check file size in read_gitfile_gently
 + setup: add gentle version of read_gitfile

 Replace "is this subdirectory a separate repository that should not
 be touched?" check "git clean" does by checking if it has .git/HEAD
 using the submodule-related code with a more optimized check.


* es/doc-clean-outdated-tools (2015-07-28) 5 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-29 at 6d80251)
 + Documentation/git-tools: retire manually-maintained list
 + Documentation/git-tools: drop references to defunct tools
 + Documentation/git-tools: fix item text formatting
 + Documentation/git-tools: improve discoverability of Git wiki
 + Documentation/git: drop outdated Cogito reference


* gp/status-rebase-i-info (2015-07-06) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at b121298)
 + status: add new tests for status during rebase -i
 + status: give more information during rebase -i
 + status: differentiate interactive from non-interactive rebases
 + status: factor two rebase-related messages together

 Teach "git status" to show a more detailed information regarding
 the "rebase -i" session in progress.


* gr/rebase-i-drop-warn (2015-06-30) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-15 at 6f4f2c8)
 + git rebase -i: add static check for commands and SHA-1
 + git rebase -i: warn about removed commits
 + git-rebase -i: add command "drop" to remove a commit

 Add "drop commit-object-name subject" command as another way to
 skip replaying of a commit in "rebase -i".


* ib/scripted-parse-opt-better-hint-string (2015-07-15) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-17 at 7bb1674)
 + rev-parse --parseopt: allow [*=?!] in argument hints

 The "rev-parse --parseopt" mode parsed the option specification
 and the argument hint in a strange way to allow '=' and other
 special characters in the option name while forbidding them from
 the argument hint.  This made it impossible to define an option
 like "--pair <key>=<value>" with "pair=key=value" specification,
 which instead would have defined a "--pair=key <value>" option.


* jc/commit-slab (2015-05-22) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-15 at 4c83475)
 + commit-slab: introduce slabname##_peek() function

 Memory use reduction when commit-slab facility is used to annotate
 sparsely (which is not recommended in the first place).


* jk/cat-file-batch-all (2015-06-26) 8 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at 80200cc)
 + cat-file: sort and de-dup output of --batch-all-objects
 + cat-file: add --batch-all-objects option
 + cat-file: split batch_one_object into two stages
 + cat-file: stop returning value from batch_one_object
 + cat-file: add --buffer option
 + cat-file: move batch_options definition to top of file
 + cat-file: minor style fix in options list
 + Merge branch 'jk/maint-for-each-packed-object' into jk/cat-file-batch-all

 "cat-file" learned "--batch-all-objects" option to enumerate all
 available objects in the repository more quickly than "rev-list
 --all --objects" (the output includes unreachable objects, though).


* jk/date-mode-format (2015-07-20) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-21 at 69f66be)
 + strbuf: make strbuf_addftime more robust
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-09 at a01bfc3)
 + introduce "format" date-mode
 + convert "enum date_mode" into a struct
 + show-branch: use DATE_RELATIVE instead of magic number

 Teach "git log" and friends a new "--date=format:..." option to
 format timestamps using system's strftime(3).


* jk/pkt-log-pack (2015-06-16) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at ba33212)
 + pkt-line: support tracing verbatim pack contents
 + pkt-line: tighten sideband PACK check when tracing
 + pkt-line: simplify starts_with checks in packet tracing

 Enhance packet tracing machinery to allow capturing an incoming
 pack data to a file for debugging.


* jk/refspec-parse-wildcard (2015-07-27) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-29 at eb48d2f)
 + refs: loosen restriction on wildcard "*" refspecs
 + refs: cleanup comments regarding check_refname_component()

 Allow an asterisk as a substring (as opposed to the entirety) of
 a path component for both side of a refspec, e.g.
 "refs/heads/o*:refs/remotes/heads/i*".


* js/fsck-opt (2015-06-23) 19 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at eb4da0a)
 + fsck: support ignoring objects in `git fsck` via fsck.skiplist
 + fsck: git receive-pack: support excluding objects from fsck'ing
 + fsck: introduce `git fsck --connectivity-only`
 + fsck: support demoting errors to warnings
 + fsck: document the new receive.fsck.<msg-id> options
 + fsck: allow upgrading fsck warnings to errors
 + fsck: optionally ignore specific fsck issues completely
 + fsck: disallow demoting grave fsck errors to warnings
 + fsck: add a simple test for receive.fsck.<msg-id>
 + fsck: make fsck_tag() warn-friendly
 + fsck: handle multiple authors in commits specially
 + fsck: make fsck_commit() warn-friendly
 + fsck: make fsck_ident() warn-friendly
 + fsck: report the ID of the error/warning
 + fsck (receive-pack): allow demoting errors to warnings
 + fsck: offer a function to demote fsck errors to warnings
 + fsck: provide a function to parse fsck message IDs
 + fsck: introduce identifiers for fsck messages
 + fsck: introduce fsck options

 Allow ignoring fsck errors on specific set of known-to-be-bad
 objects, and also tweaking warning level of various kinds of non
 critical breakages reported.


* jx/do-not-crash-receive-pack-wo-head (2015-07-22) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-29 at 227d0d9)
 + receive-pack: crash when checking with non-exist HEAD

 An attempt to delete a ref by pushing into a repositorywhose HEAD
 symbolic reference points at an unborn branch that cannot be
 created due to ref D/F conflict (e.g. refs/heads/a/b exists, HEAD
 points at refs/heads/a) failed.


* kb/i18n-doc (2015-07-01) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-09 at a12c7b3)
 + Documentation/i18n.txt: clarify character encoding support


* kn/for-each-ref (2015-08-03) 11 commits
 + ref-filter: make 'ref_array_item' use a FLEX_ARRAY for refname
 + for-each-ref: introduce filter_refs()
 + ref-filter: move code from 'for-each-ref'
 + ref-filter: add 'ref-filter.h'
 + for-each-ref: rename variables called sort to sorting
 + for-each-ref: rename some functions and make them public
 + for-each-ref: introduce 'ref_array_clear()'
 + for-each-ref: introduce new structures for better organisation
 + for-each-ref: rename 'refinfo' to 'ref_array_item'
 + for-each-ref: clean up code
 + for-each-ref: extract helper functions out of grab_single_ref()
 (this branch is used by kn/for-each-tag-branch).

 GSoC project to rebuild ref listing by branch and tag based on the
 for-each-ref machinery.  This is its first part.


* kn/tag-doc-fix (2015-07-10) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-15 at 7bd6038)
 + Documentation/tag: remove double occurance of "<pattern>"


* mh/fast-import-get-mark (2015-07-01) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-15 at 5e034b9)
 + fast-import: add a get-mark command

 "git fast-import" learned to respond to the get-mark command via
 its cat-blob-fd interface.


* mh/fast-import-optimize-current-from (2015-07-13) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-15 at 2be8b1f)
 + fast-import: do less work when given "from" matches current branch head

 Often a fast-import stream builds a new commit on top of the
 previous commit it built, and it often unconditionally emits a
 "from" command to specify the first parent, which can be omitted in
 such a case.  This caused fast-import to forget the tree of the
 previous commit and then re-read it from scratch, which was
 inefficient.  Optimize for this common case.


* mh/init-delete-refs-api (2015-06-22) 19 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at 121b26e)
 + delete_ref(): use the usual convention for old_sha1
 + cmd_update_ref(): make logic more straightforward
 + update_ref(): don't read old reference value before delete
 + check_branch_commit(): make first parameter const
 + refs.h: add some parameter names to function declarations
 + refs: move the remaining ref module declarations to refs.h
 + initial_ref_transaction_commit(): check for ref D/F conflicts
 + initial_ref_transaction_commit(): check for duplicate refs
 + refs: remove some functions from the module's public interface
 + initial_ref_transaction_commit(): function for initial ref creation
 + repack_without_refs(): make function private
 + prune_refs(): use delete_refs()
 + prune_remote(): use delete_refs()
 + delete_refs(): bail early if the packed-refs file cannot be rewritten
 + delete_refs(): make error message more generic
 + delete_refs(): new function for the refs API
 + delete_ref(): handle special case more explicitly
 + remove_branches(): remove temporary
 + delete_ref(): move declaration to refs.h

 Clean up refs API and make "git clone" less intimate with the
 implementation detail.


* mh/replace-refs (2015-06-12) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-24 at cb13adf)
 + Allow to control where the replace refs are looked for

 Add an environment variable to tell Git to look into refs hierarchy
 other than refs/replace/ for the object replacement data.


* mr/rebase-i-customize-insn-sheet (2015-06-15) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at ec383cd)
 + git-rebase--interactive.sh: add config option for custom instruction format

 "git rebase -i"'s list of todo is made configurable.


* nd/export-worktree (2015-06-26) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-09 at 1581a9b)
 + setup: set env $GIT_WORK_TREE when work tree is set, like $GIT_DIR

 Running an aliased command from a subdirectory when the .git thing
 in the working tree is a gitfile pointing elsewhere did not work.


* pt/am-foreign (2015-06-15) 5 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-24 at 838c702)
 + am: teach mercurial patch parser how to read from stdin
 + am: use gmtime() to parse mercurial patch date
 + t4150: test applying StGit series
 + am: teach StGit patch parser how to read from stdin
 + t4150: test applying StGit patch

 Various enhancements around "git am" reading patches generated by
 foreign SCM.


* pt/am-tests (2015-07-20) 12 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-21 at 8d3d5f4)
 + t3901: test git-am encoding conversion
 + t3418: non-interactive rebase --continue with rerere enabled
 + t4150: tests for am --[no-]scissors
 + t4150: am with post-applypatch hook
 + t4150: am with pre-applypatch hook
 + t4150: am with applypatch-msg hook
 + t4150: am --resolved fails if index has unmerged entries
 + t4150: am --resolved fails if index has no changes
 + t4150: am refuses patches when paused
 + t4151: am --abort will keep dirty index intact
 + t4150: am fails if index is dirty
 + t4150: am.messageid really adds the message id


* pt/pull-builtin (2015-06-18) 19 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-10 at 07b1794)
 + pull: remove redirection to git-pull.sh
 + pull --rebase: error on no merge candidate cases
 + pull --rebase: exit early when the working directory is dirty
 + pull: configure --rebase via branch.<name>.rebase or pull.rebase
 + pull: teach git pull about --rebase
 + pull: set reflog message
 + pull: implement pulling into an unborn branch
 + pull: fast-forward working tree if head is updated
 + pull: check if in unresolved merge state
 + pull: support pull.ff config
 + pull: error on no merge candidates
 + pull: pass git-fetch's options to git-fetch
 + pull: pass git-merge's options to git-merge
 + pull: pass verbosity, --progress flags to fetch and merge
 + pull: implement fetch + merge
 + pull: implement skeletal builtin pull
 + argv-array: implement argv_array_pushv()
 + parse-options-cb: implement parse_opt_passthru_argv()
 + parse-options-cb: implement parse_opt_passthru()
 (this branch is used by kd/pull-rebase-autostash, pt/am-builtin and pt/am-builtin-fix.)

 Reimplement 'git pull' in C.


* rl/send-email-aliases (2015-07-07) 10 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-09 at c60553d)
 + send-email: suppress meaningless whitespaces in from field
 + send-email: allow multiple emails using --cc, --to and --bcc
 + send-email: consider quote as delimiter instead of character
 + send-email: reduce dependencies impact on parse_address_line
 + send-email: minor code refactoring
 + send-email: allow use of aliases in the From field of --compose mode
 + send-email: refactor address list process
 + t9001-send-email: refactor header variable fields replacement
 + send-email: allow aliases in patch header and command script outputs
 + t9001-send-email: move script creation in a setup test

 "git send-email" now performs alias-expansion on names that are
 given via --cccmd, etc.

 This round comes with a lot more enhanced e-mail address parser,
 which makes it a bit scary, but as long as it works as designed, it
 makes it wonderful ;-).


* se/doc-checkout-ours-theirs (2015-07-12) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-21 at 5275f04)
 + checkout: document subtlety around --ours/--theirs

 A "rebase" replays changes of the local branch on top of something
 else, as such they are placed in stage #3 and referred to as
 "theirs", while the changes in the new base, typically a foreign
 work, are placed in stage #2 and referred to as "ours".  Clarify
 the "checkout --ours/--theirs".


* sg/bash-prompt-untracked-optim (2015-07-20) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-21 at e151fb7)
 + bash prompt: faster untracked status indicator with untracked directories
 + bash prompt: test untracked files status indicator with untracked dirs

 Optimize computation of untracked status indicator by bash prompt
 script (in contrib/).


* zb/userdiff-fountain (2015-07-23) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-07-23 at e177995)
 + userdiff: add support for Fountain documents

 New userdiff pattern definition for fountain screenwriting markup
 format.

--------------------------------------------------
[New Topics]

* sb/check-return-from-read-ref (2015-08-03) 1 commit
 - transport-helper: die on errors reading refs.

 Will merge to 'next'.

--------------------------------------------------
[Stalled]

* bw/portability-solaris (2015-07-20) 3 commits
 - tests: fix sed usage in tests to work around broken xpg4/sed on Solaris
 - tests: fix sed usage in tests to work around broken xpg4/sed on Solaris
 - tests: modify tr expressions so that xpg4/tr handles it on Solaris

 Needs another reroll? ($gmane/274296)


* jc/clone-bundle (2015-04-30) 1 commit
 - repack: optionally create a clone.bundle

 Waiting for further work.
 Still an early WIP.


* jh/strbuf-read-use-read-in-full (2015-06-01) 1 commit
 - strbuf_read(): skip unnecessary strbuf_grow() at eof

 Avoid one extra iteration and strbuf_grow() of 8kB in
 strbuf_read().

 Looked reasonable; perhaps a log message clarification is needed.

 Expecting a reroll.


* mg/index-read-error-messages (2015-06-01) 2 commits
 - messages: uniform error messages for index write
 - show-index: uniform error messages for index read

 The tip was RFC.
 Expecting a reroll.


* hv/submodule-config (2015-06-15) 4 commits
 - do not die on error of parsing fetchrecursesubmodules option
 - use new config API for worktree configurations of submodules
 - extract functions for submodule config set and lookup
 - implement submodule config API for lookup of .gitmodules values

 The gitmodules API accessed from the C code learned to cache stuff
 lazily.

 Needs another reroll? ($gmane/273743).


* jk/log-missing-default-HEAD (2015-06-03) 1 commit
 - log: diagnose empty HEAD more clearly

 "git init empty && git -C empty log" said "bad default revision 'HEAD'",
 which was found to be a bit confusing to new users.

 What's the status of this one?


* wp/sha1-name-negative-match (2015-06-08) 2 commits
 - sha1_name.c: introduce '^{/!-<negative pattern>}' notation
 - test for '!' handling in rev-parse's named commits

 Introduce "branch^{/!-<pattern>}" notation to name a commit
 reachable from branch that does not match the given pattern.

 Expecting a reroll.


* mk/utf8-no-iconv-warn (2015-06-08) 1 commit
 - utf8.c: print warning about disabled iconv

 Warn when a reencoding is requested in a build without iconv
 support, as the end user is likely to get an unexpected result.  I
 think the same level of safety should be added to a build with
 iconv support when the specified encoding is not available, but the
 patch does not go there.

 Expecting a reroll.


* ak/format-patch-odir-config (2015-06-19) 1 commit
 - format-patch: introduce format.outputDirectory configuration

 Reroll exists but didn't pick it up as it seemed to be still
 collecting review comments.

 Expecting a reroll.
 ($gmane/272180).


* mh/tempfile (2015-06-10) 14 commits
 - credential-cache--daemon: use tempfile module
 - credential-cache--daemon: delete socket from main()
 - gc: use tempfile module to handle gc.pid file
 - lock_repo_for_gc(): compute the path to "gc.pid" only once
 - diff: use tempfile module
 - setup_temporary_shallow(): use tempfile module
 - write_shared_index(): use tempfile module
 - register_tempfile(): new function to handle an existing temporary file
 - tempfile: add several functions for creating temporary files
 - register_tempfile_object(): new function, extracted from create_tempfile()
 - commit_lock_file(): use get_locked_file_path()
 - lockfile: remove some redundant functions
 - tempfile: a new module for handling temporary files
 - Move lockfile API documentation to lockfile.h

 Rebuild "lockfile" API on top of a new "tempfile" API.
 This needs rerolling, to include "tempfile.h" in "lockfile.h", at
 least.

 Expecting a reroll.
 ($gmane/271353)


* ad/bisect-terms (2015-08-03) 4 commits
 - bisect: allow setting any user-specified in 'git bisect start'
 - bisect: add 'git bisect terms' to view the current terms
 - bisect: add the terms old/new
 - bisect: sanity check on terms
 (this branch uses ad/bisect-cleanup.)

 The use of 'good/bad' in "git bisect" made it confusing to use when
 hunting for a state change that is not a regression (e.g. bugfix).
 The command learned 'old/new' and then allows the end user to
 say e.g. "bisect start --term-old=fast --term=new=slow" to find a
 performance regression.

 Michael's idea to make 'good/bad' more intelligent does have
 certain attractiveness ($gname/272867), and makes some of the work
 on this topic a moot point.

 Will hold.


* mh/notes-allow-reading-treeish (2015-07-13) 1 commit
 - notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref

 Some "git notes" operations, e.g. "git log --notes=<note>", should
 be able to read notes from any tree-ish that is shaped like a notes
 tree, but the notes infrastructure required that the argument must
 be a ref under refs/notes/.  Loosen it to require a valid ref only
 when the operation would update the notes (in which case we must
 have a place to store the updated notes tree, iow, a ref).

 Needs update to docs.


* sg/config-name-only (2015-05-28) 3 commits
 - completion: use new 'git config' options to reliably list variable names
 - SQUASH
 - config: add options to list only variable names

 "git config --list" output was hard to parse when values consist of
 multiple lines.  Introduce a way to show only the keys.

 Adding a single --name-only option may be a better way to go than
 adding two new options.

 Expecting a reroll.


* kk/log-merges-config (2015-04-21) 5 commits
 - bash-completion: add support for git-log --merges= and log.merges
 - t4202-log: add tests for --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).

 positive discussions.

 Waiting for a further polished reroll ($gmane/265534).


* jc/diff-b-m (2015-02-23) 5 commits
 . 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

 - 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.

 Waiting for a reroll.
 ($gmane/256591).


* tg/perf-lib-test-perf-cleanup (2013-09-19) 2 commits
 - perf-lib: add test_perf_cleanup target

 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.

* dt/reflog-tests (2015-07-28) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-03 at 9d2fa1a)
 + tests: remove some direct access to .git/logs
 + t/t7509: remove unnecessary manipulation of reflog

 Tests that assume how reflogs are represented on the filesystem too
 much have been corrected.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* dt/unpack-trees-cache-tree-revalidate (2015-07-28) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-03 at 5b0d620)
 + unpack-trees: populate cache-tree on successful merge

 The code to perform multi-tree merges has been taught to repopulate
 the cache-tree upon a successful merge into the index, so that
 subsequent "diff-index --cached" (hence "status") and "write-tree"
 (hence "commit") will go faster.

 The same logic in "git checkout" may now be removed, but that is a
 separate issue.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jk/negative-hiderefs (2015-07-28) 2 commits
 - refs: support negative transfer.hideRefs
 - docs/config.txt: reorder hideRefs config

 Allow negative !ref entry in multi-value transfer.hideRefs
 configuration to say "don't hide this one".

 An update to test coming?


* mh/get-remote-group-fix (2015-07-28) 4 commits
 - get_remote_group(): use skip_prefix()
 - get_remote_group(): eliminate superfluous call to strcspn()
 - get_remote_group(): rename local variable "space" to "wordlen"
 - get_remote_group(): handle remotes with single-character names

 An off-by-one error made "git remote" to mishandle a remote with a
 single letter nickname.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 Forbid simultaneous "notes merge" to happen for the same ref in
 refs/notes/* when linked worktree is used.

  (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-03 at 3eafd33)
 + sequencer: replace write_cherry_pick_head with update_ref
 + bisect: use update_ref
 + pseudorefs: create and use pseudoref update and delete functions
 + refs: add ref_type function
 + refs: introduce pseudoref and per-worktree ref concepts

 To prepare for allowing a different "ref" backend to be plugged in
 to the system, update_ref()/delete_ref() have been taught about
 ref-like things like MERGE_HEAD that are per-worktree (they will
 always be written to the filesystem inside $GIT_DIR).

 Will merge to 'master'.


* dt/untracked-sparse (2015-07-31) 1 commit
 - untracked-cache: support sparse checkout

 Allow untracked cache (experimental) to be used when sparse
 checkout (experimental) is also in use.


* pt/am-builtin-fix (2015-07-28) 1 commit
 - am: let command-line options override saved options
 (this branch uses pt/am-builtin.)

 With "git am --options" followed by "git am --other-options", the
 options given in a later invocation should override the initial
 options for a single invocation, but the rewritten "git am" didn't.

 Will merge into pt/am-builtin topic.

 Expecting a reroll.


* sb/parse-options-codeformat (2015-07-29) 1 commit

 configuration.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 Remove the "new-worktree-mode" hack in "checkout" that was added in
 nd/multiple-work-trees topic by updating the implementation of new
 "worktree add".

 Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-07-15

 Some features from "git tag -l" and "git branch -l" have been made
 available to "git for-each-ref" so that eventually the unified
 implementation can be shared across all three, in a follow-up
 series or two.

 - gitweb: optionally set project category from its pathname
 - 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

 Update gitweb to make it more pleasant to deal with a hierarchical
 forest of repositories.

 A fresh restart will not be rejected, but ejected from my tree for
 now.


* 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.


* jc/push-tags-also (2015-05-29) 1 commit
 - push --tags: push tags *in addition to* other stuff

 "git fetch --tags" learned to fetch tags in addition to other stuff
 a few years ago, but "git push --tags" didn't.  Now it does.

 A change to push out more than before always invites "what if the
 user makes a mistake" worries.

 Will discard.
