Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'. The third batch of topics have graduated to 'master'. 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"] * dt/untracked-sparse (2015-07-31) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 234434d) + untracked-cache: support sparse checkout (this branch is used by dt/untracked-subdir.)

Expecting a reroll. * dk/gc-idx-wo-pack (2015-08-17) 3 commits - DONTMERGE: log message, grace-period and tests $gmane/276058 - gc: remove stale .idx files without corresponding .pack file - prepare_packed_git(): refactor garbage reporting in pack directory Having a leftover .idx file without correspoinding .pack file in the repository hurts performance; "git gc" learned to prune them. Expecting a reroll. * ep/http-configure-ssl-version (2015-08-17) 1 commit - http: add support for specifying the SSL version A new configuration variable http.sslVersion can be used to specify what specific version of SSL/TLS to use to make a connection. Will merge to 'next'. * jv/send-email-selective-smtp-auth (2015-08-17) 1 commit - send-email: provide whitelist of SMTP AUTH mechanisms "git send-email" learned a new option --smtp-auth to limit the SMTP AUTH mechanisms to be used to a subset of what the system library supports.

Will merge to 'next'. * ss/fix-config-fd-leak (2015-08-14) 1 commit - config: close config file handle in case of error Will merge to 'next'. -------------------------------------------------- [Stalled] * nd/list-files (2015-02-09) 21 commits - t3080: tests for git-list-files - list-files: -M aka diff-cached - list-files -F: show submodules with the new indicator '&' - list-files: add -F/--classify - list-files: show directories as well as files - list-files: do not show duplicate cached entries - list-files: sort output and remove duplicates - list-files: add -t back - list-files: add -1 short for --no-column - list-files: add -R/--recursive short for --max-depth=-1 - list-files: -u does not imply showing stages - list-files: make alias 'ls' default to 'list-files' - list-files: a user friendly version of ls-files and more - ls-files: support --max-depth - ls-files: add --column - ls-files: add --color to highlight file names - ls-files: buffer full item in strbuf before printing - ls_colors.c: highlight submodules like directories - ls_colors.c: add a function to color a file name - ls_colors.c: parse color.ls.* from config file - ls_colors.c: add $LS_COLORS parsing code A new "git list-files" Porcelain command, "ls-files" with bells and whistles. Reroll to base on wt-status work ($gmane/265142) has seen some positive discussions. Waiting for a further polished reroll ($gmane/265534). * mh/numparse (2015-03-19) 14 commits . diff_opt_parse(): use convert_i() when handling --abbrev=<num> . diff_opt_parse(): use convert_i() when handling "-l<num>" . opt_arg(): simplify pointer handling . opt_arg(): report errors parsing option values . opt_arg(): use convert_i() in implementation . opt_arg(): val is always non-NULL . builtin_diff(): detect errors when parsing --unified argument . handle_revision_opt(): use convert_ui() when handling "--abbrev=" . strtoul_ui(), strtol_i(): remove functions . handle_revision_opt(): use convert_i() when handling "-<digit>" . handle_revision_opt(): use skip_prefix() in many places . write_subdirectory(): use convert_ui() for parsing mode . cacheinfo_callback(): use convert_ui() when handling "--cacheinfo" . numparse: new module for parsing integral numbers Many codepaths use unchecked use of strtol() and friends (or even worse, atoi()). Introduce a set of wrappers that try to be more careful. Expecting a reroll. ($gmane/268058). * 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). 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 $gmane/266962 Expecting a reroll. with updated log message ($gmane/268061). * 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? ($gmane/274296) * jc/clone-bundle (2015-04-30) 1 commit - repack: optionally create a clone.bundle Waiting for further work. Still an early WIP. * mg/index-read-error-messages (2015-06-01) 2 commits - messages: uniform error messages for index write - show-index: uniform error messages for index read The tip was RFC. Expecting a reroll. * hv/submodule-config (2015-06-15) 4 commits - do not die on error of parsing fetchrecursesubmodules option - use new config API for worktree configurations of submodules - extract functions for submodule config set and lookup - implement submodule config API for lookup of .gitmodules values The gitmodules API accessed from the C code learned to cache stuff lazily. Needs another reroll? ($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. ($gmane/272180). * ad/bisect-terms (2015-08-03) 4 commits - bisect: allow setting any user-specified in 'git bisect start' - bisect: add 'git bisect terms' to view the current terms - bisect: add the terms old/new - bisect: sanity check on terms The use of 'good/bad' in "git bisect" made it confusing to use when hunting for a state change that is not a regression (e.g. bugfix). The command learned 'old/new' and then allows the end user to say e.g. "bisect start --term-old=fast --term=new=slow" to find a performance regression. Michael's idea to make 'good/bad' more intelligent does have certain attractiveness ($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. ($gmane/273928) * jc/diff-b-m (2015-02-23) 5 commits . WIPWIP . WIP: diff-b-m - diffcore-rename: allow easier debugging - diffcore-rename.c: add locate_rename_src() - diffcore-break: allow debugging "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from other place. The fix in this patch is broken, unfortunately. * pw/remote-set-url-fetch (2014-11-26) 1 commit . remote: add --fetch and --both options to set-url Ejected. * tr/remerge-diff (2014-11-10) 9 commits - t4213: avoid "|" in sed regexp - log --remerge-diff: show what the conflict resolution changed - name-hash: allow dir hashing even when !ignore_case - merge-recursive: allow storing conflict hunks in index - merge_diff_mode: fold all merge diff variants into an enum - combine-diff: do not pass revs->dense_combined_merges redundantly - merge-recursive: -Xindex-only to leave worktree unchanged - merge-recursive: internal flag to avoid touching the worktree - merge-recursive: remove dead conditional in update_stages() "log -p" output learns a new way to let users inspect a merge commit by showing the differences between the automerged result with conflicts the person who recorded the merge would have seen and the final conflict resolution that was recorded in the merge. Waiting for a reroll. ($gmane/256591). * 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/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. -------------------------------------------------- [Cooking] * bb/remote-get-url (2015-08-05) 1 commit - remote: add get-url subcommand "git remote" learned "get-url" subcommand to show the URL for a given remote name used for fetching and pushing. Waiting for a reroll. ($gmane/275401) * cb/open-noatime-clear-errno (2015-08-12) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-17 at 6aa43a1) + git_open_noatime: return with errno=0 on success When trying to see that an object does not exist, a state errno leaked from our "first try to open a packfile with O_NOATIME and then if it fails retry without it" logic on a system that refuses O_NOATIME. This confused us and caused us to die, saying that the packfile is unreadable, when we should have just reported that the object does not exist in that packfile to the caller. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/guess-repo-name-regression-fix (2015-08-10) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 4cba33c) + clone: use computed length in guess_dir_name + clone: add tests for output directory (this branch is used by ps/guess-repo-name-at-root.) "git clone $URL" in recent releases of Git contains a regression in the code that invents a new repository name incorrectly based on the $URL. This has been corrected. Will merge to 'master'. * ps/guess-repo-name-at-root (2015-08-10) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 088860f) + clone: abort if no dir name could be guessed + clone: do not use port number as dir name + clone: do not include authentication data in guessed dir (this branch uses jk/guess-repo-name-regression-fix.) "git clone $URL", when cloning from a site whose sole purpose is to host a single repository (hence, no path after <scheme>://<site>/), tried to use the site name as the new repository name, but did not remove username or password when <site> part was of the form <user>@<pass>:<host>. The code is taught to redact these. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/notes-merge-config (2015-08-14) 4 commits - notes: teach git-notes about notes.<ref>.mergestrategy option - notes: add notes.mergestrategy option to select default strategy - notes: add tests for --commit/--abort/--strategy exclusivity - notes: document cat_sort_uniq rewriteMode "git notes merge" can be told with "--strategy=<how>" option how to automatically handle conflicts; this can now be configured by setting notes.merge configuration variable. The latest reroll (v8) hasn't been picked up. Expecting a reroll. ($gmane/276068) * mk/submodule-gitdir-path (2015-08-05) 2 commits - path: implement common_dir handling in git_path_submodule() - submodule refactor: use git_path_submodule() in add_submodule_odb() The submodule code has been taught to work better with separate work trees created via "git worktree add". Waiting for a review. ($gmane/275340). * mm/pull-upload-pack (2015-07-30) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 14d2a52) + pull.sh: quote $upload_pack when passing it to git-fetch "git pull" in recent releases of Git has a regression in the code that allows custom path to the --upload-pack=<program>. This has been corrected. Will merge to 'maint'. Note that this is irrelevant for 'master' with "git pull" rewritten in C. * ps/t1509-chroot-test-fixup (2015-08-05) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 6d10ea5) + tests: fix cleanup after tests in t1509-root-worktree + tests: fix broken && chains in t1509-root-worktree t1509 test that requires a dedicated VM environment had some bitrot, which has been corrected. Will merge to 'master'. * pt/am-builtin-options (2015-08-12) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at e57f754) + am: let --signoff override --no-signoff + am: let command-line options override saved options + test_terminal: redirect child process' stdin to a pty After "git am --opt1" stops, running "git am --opt2" pays attention to "--opt2" only for the patch that caused the original invocation to stop. Will merge to 'master'. * sb/remove-get-pathspec (2015-08-03) 1 commit - builtin/mv: remove get_pathspec() Expecting a reroll. ($gmane/275224) * sb/submodule-helper (2015-08-07) 1 commit - submodule: implement `module_list` as a builtin helper The beginning of "git submodule" rewritten in C. * tb/complete-rebase-i-edit-todo (2015-08-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 9606c21) + completion: offer '--edit-todo' during interactive rebase The command-line completion script (in contrib/) has been updated. Will merge to 'master'. * dt/untracked-subdir (2015-08-07) 2 commits - DONTMERGE: wait for Duy to Ack or comment - untracked-cache: fix subdirectory handling Waiting for a review cycle to conclude. ($gmane/276019). * jk/test-with-x (2015-08-07) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 06576a1) + test-lib: disable trace when test is not verbose + test-lib: turn off "-x" tracing during chain-lint check Running tests with the "-x" option to make them verbose had some unpleasant interactions with other features of the test suite. Will merge to 'master'. * ad/cygwin-wants-rename (2015-08-07) 1 commit - config.mak.uname: Cygwin needs OBJECT_CREATION_USES_RENAMES Will hold. ($gmane/275680). * ee/clean-remove-dirs (2015-08-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at fc41b09) + t7300-clean: require POSIXPERM for chmod 0 test Test updates for Windows. Will merge to 'master'. * jc/finalize-temp-file (2015-08-10) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 6fe62fe) + sha1_file.c: rename move_temp_to_file() to finalize_object_file() Long overdue micro clean-up. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/git-path (2015-08-10) 16 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 7ebe864) + memoize common git-path "constant" files + get_repo_path: refactor path-allocation + find_hook: keep our own static buffer + refs.c: remove_empty_directories can take a strbuf + refs.c: avoid git_path assignment in lock_ref_sha1_basic + refs.c: avoid repeated git_path calls in rename_tmp_log + refs.c: simplify strbufs in reflog setup and writing + path.c: drop git_path_submodule + refs.c: remove extra git_path calls from read_loose_refs + remote.c: drop extraneous local variable from migrate_file + prefer mkpathdup to mkpath in assignments + prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous cases + add_to_alternates_file: don't add duplicate entries + t5700: modernize style + cache.h: complete set of git_path_submodule helpers + cache.h: clarify documentation for git_path, et al git_path() and mkpath() are handy helper functions but it is easy to misuse, as the callers need to be careful to keep the number of active results below 4. Their uses have been reduced. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/long-error-messages (2015-08-11) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 36303cd) + vreportf: avoid intermediate buffer + vreportf: report to arbitrary filehandles The codepath to produce error messages had a hard-coded limit to the size of the message, primarily to avoid memory allocation while calling die(). Will merge to 'master'. * nd/dwim-wildcards-as-pathspecs (2015-08-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at bb73f4d) + t2019: skip test requiring '*' in a file name non Windows Test updates for Windows.

"--name-only" option is added to help this. Will merge to 'master'. * mh/tempfile (2015-08-12) 16 commits (merged to 'next' on 2015-08-12 at 80efcb7) + 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 + prepare_tempfile_object(): new function, extracted from create_tempfile() + tempfile: a new module for handling temporary files + commit_lock_file(): use get_locked_file_path() + lockfile: add accessor get_lock_file_path() + lockfile: add accessors get_lock_file_fd() and get_lock_file_fp() + create_bundle(): duplicate file descriptor to avoid closing it twice + lockfile: move documentation to lockfile.h and lockfile.c The "lockfile" API has been rebuilt on top of a new "tempfile" API.
