Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.
A set of releases for a handful of maintenance tracks have been
tagged (v2.6.1, v2.5.4, v2.4.10 and v2.3.10), thanks to Blake
Burkhart and Jeff King.
With somewhat reduced review bandwidth, I'd expect that the upcoming
cycle would be slower than usual. At tinyurl.com/gitCal, I
tentatively drew a 14-week schedule for this cycle (I plan to be
offline during weeks #7-#9 myself---hopefully we'll have capable
interim maintainers to take care of the list traffic in the meantime
as in past years).
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

[Graduated to "master"]
* ad/bisect-terms (2015-08-03) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-01 at ede6e64)
+ 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 may make some of
the work on this topic a moot point, though.
* as/subtree-with-spaces (2015-09-08) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-09 at f3d763d)
+ contrib/subtree: respect spaces in a repository path
+ t7900-subtree: test the "space in a subdirectory name" case
Update "git subtree" (in contrib/) so that it can take whitespaces
in the pathnames, not only in the in-tree pathname but the name of
the directory that the repository is in.
* bb/remote-get-url (2015-09-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at c07a1e8)
+ 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.
* dt/refs-bisection (2015-09-01) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 2b66bad)
+ refs: make refs/bisect/* per-worktree
+ path: optimize common dir checking
+ refs: clean up common_list
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb.)
Move the refs used during a "git bisect" session to per-worktree
hierarchy refs/worktree/* so that independent bisect sessions can
be done in different worktrees.
The second commit may or may not want to be reverted.
* jc/rerere (2015-07-24) 21 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-08-26 at 8ae15ef)
+ rerere: un-nest merge() further
+ rerere: use "struct rerere_id" instead of "char *" for conflict ID
+ rerere: call conflict-ids IDs
+ rerere: further clarify do_rerere_one_path()
+ rerere: further de-dent do_plain_rerere()
+ rerere: refactor "replay" part of do_plain_rerere()
+ rerere: explain the remainder
+ rerere: explain "rerere forget" codepath
+ rerere: explain the primary codepath
+ rerere: explain MERGE_RR management helpers
+ rerere: fix benign off-by-one non-bug and clarify code
+ rerere: explain the rerere I/O abstraction
+ rerere: do not leak mmfile[] for a path with multiple stage #1 entries
+ rerere: stop looping unnecessarily
+ rerere: drop want_sp parameter from is_cmarker()
+ rerere: report autoupdated paths only after actually updating them
+ rerere: write out each record of MERGE_RR in one go
+ rerere: lift PATH_MAX limitation
+ rerere: plug conflict ID leaks
+ rerere: handle conflicts with multiple stage #1 entries
+ rerere: fix an off-by-one non-bug
(this branch is used by jc/rerere-multi.)
Code clean-up and minor fixes.
* jh/quiltimport-explicit-series-file (2015-09-01) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-02 at 1129ca4)
+ git-quiltimport: add commandline option --series <file>
"quiltimport" allows to specify the series file by honoring the
$QUILT_SERIES environment and also --series command line option.
* jk/async-pkt-line (2015-09-01) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-02 at e185717)
+ pkt-line: show packets in async processes as "sideband"
+ run-command: provide in_async query function
The debugging infrastructure for pkt-line based communication has
been improved to mark the side-band communication specifically.
* jk/blame-first-parent (2015-09-16) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 7580f6b)
+ blame: handle --first-parent
"git blame --first-parent v1.0..v2.0" was not rejected but did not
limit the blame to commits on the first parent chain.
* jk/connect-clear-env (2015-09-08) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 86b64f7)
+ git_connect: clarify conn->use_shell flag
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-06 at 9ddbed8)
+ git_connect: clear GIT_* environment for ssh
The ssh transport, just like any other transport over the network,
did not clear GIT_* environment variables, but it is possible to
use SendEnv and AcceptEnv to leak them to the remote invocation of
Git, which is not a good idea at all. Explicitly clear them just
like we do for the local transport.
* jk/date-local (2015-09-03) 11 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 66781d9)
+ t6300: add tests for "-local" date formats
+ t6300: make UTC and local dates different
+ date: make "local" orthogonal to date format
+ date: check for "local" before anything else
+ t6300: add test for "raw" date format
+ t6300: introduce test_date() helper
+ fast-import: switch crash-report date to iso8601
+ Documentation/rev-list: don't list date formats
+ Documentation/git-for-each-ref: don't list date formats
+ Documentation/config: don't list date formats
+ Documentation/blame-options: don't list date formats
"git log --date=local" used to only show the normal (default)
format in the local timezone. The command learned to take 'local'
as an instruction to use the local timezone with other formats,
e.g. "git show --date=rfc-local".
* jk/interpret-trailers-outside-a-repository (2015-09-08) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-09 at a75fce3)
+ interpret-trailers: allow running outside a repository
Allow "git interpret-trailers" to run outside of a Git repository.
* jk/make-findstring-makeflags-fix (2015-09-10) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 26ea6e0)
+ Makefile: fix MAKEFLAGS tests with multiple flags
Customization to change the behaviour with "make -w" and "make -s"
in our Makefile was broken when they were used together.
* jk/rebase-no-autostash (2015-09-10) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 034d726)
+ Documentation/git-rebase: fix --no-autostash formatting
+ rebase: support --no-autostash
There was no way to defeat a configured rebase.autostash variable
from the command line, as "git rebase --no-autostash" was missing.
* jk/test-lint-forbid-when-finished-in-subshell (2015-09-08) 5 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-09 at 74ede61)
+ test-lib-functions: detect test_when_finished in subshell
+ t7800: don't use test_config in a subshell
+ test-lib-functions: support "test_config -C <dir> ..."
+ t5801: don't use test_when_finished in a subshell
+ t7610: don't use test_config in a subshell
Because "test_when_finished" in our test framework queues the
clean-up tasks to be done in a shell variable, it should not be
used inside a subshell. Add a mechanism to allow 'bash' to catch
such uses, and fix the ones that were found.
* jw/make-arflags-customizable (2015-09-10) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at cb3892c1)
+ Makefile: allow $(ARFLAGS) specified from the command line
The Makefile always runs the library archiver with hardcoded "crs"
options, which was inconvenient for exotic platforms on which
people want to use programs with totally different set of command
line options.
* kn/for-each-tag (2015-09-17) 17 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-17 at 1980952)
+ tag.c: implement '--merged' and '--no-merged' options
+ tag.c: implement '--format' option
+ tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs
+ tag.c: use 'ref-filter' data structures
+ ref-filter: add option to match literal pattern
+ ref-filter: add support to sort by version
+ ref-filter: add support for %(contents:lines=X)
+ ref-filter: add option to filter out tags, branches and remotes
+ ref-filter: implement an `align` atom
+ ref-filter: introduce match_atom_name()
+ ref-filter: introduce handler function for each atom
+ utf8: add function to align a string into given strbuf
+ ref-filter: introduce ref_formatting_state and ref_formatting_stack
+ ref-filter: move `struct atom_value` to ref-filter.c
+ strtoul_ui: reject negative values
+ Merge 'jk/git-path' into kn/for-each-tag
+ Merge 'kn/for-each-tag-branch' into kn/for-each-tag
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb, kn/for-each-branch and kn/for-each-branch-remainder; uses kn/for-each-tag-branch.)
The "ref-filter" code was taught about many parts of what "tag -l"
does and then "tag -l" is being reimplemented in terms of "ref-filter".
* kn/for-each-tag-branch (2015-08-03) 11 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-08-03 at d9e94b9)
+ for-each-ref: add '--contains' option
+ ref-filter: implement '--contains' option
+ parse-options.h: add macros for '--contains' option
+ parse-option: rename parse_opt_with_commit()
+ for-each-ref: add '--merged' and '--no-merged' options
+ ref-filter: implement '--merged' and '--no-merged' options
+ ref-filter: add parse_opt_merge_filter()
+ for-each-ref: add '--points-at' option
+ ref-filter: implement '--points-at' option
+ tag: libify parse_opt_points_at()
+ t6302: for-each-ref tests for ref-filter APIs
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb, kn/for-each-branch, kn/for-each-branch-remainder and kn/for-each-tag.)
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.
* ld/p4-import-labels (2015-08-28) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-01 at cf9f1d6)
+ git-p4: fix P4 label import for unprocessed commits
+ git-p4: do not terminate creating tag for unknown commit
+ git-p4: failing test for ignoring invalid p4 labels
Correct "git p4 --detect-labels" so that it does not fail to create
a tag that points at a commit that is also being imported.
* mm/keyid-docs (2015-09-21) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at f50ccab)
+ Documentation: explain optional arguments better
+ Documentation/grep: fix documentation of -O
+ Documentation: use 'keyid' consistently, not 'key-id'
Very small number of options take a parameter that is optional
(which is not a great UI element as they can only appear at the end
of the command line). Add notice to documentation of each and
every one of them.
* nk/stash-show-config (2015-08-31) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 90dd06f)
+ stash: allow "stash show" diff output configurable
Users who are too busy to type three extra keystrokes to ask for
"git stash show -p" can now set stash.showPatch configuration
varible to true to always see the actual patch, not just the list
of paths affected with feel for the extent of damage via diffstat.
* sb/submodule-helper (2015-09-08) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 9354b31)
+ submodule: rewrite `module_clone` shell function in C
+ submodule: rewrite `module_name` shell function in C
+ submodule: rewrite `module_list` shell function in C
+ Merge 'hv/submodule-config' to 'sb/submodule-helper'
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb and sb/submodule-parallel-fetch.)
The infrastructure to rewrite "git submodule" in C is being built
incrementally. Let's polish these early parts well enough and make
them graduate to 'next' and 'master', so that the more involved
follow-up can start cooking on a solid ground.

- rebase-i: loosen over-eager check_bad_cmd check
- rebase-i: explicitly accept tab as separator in commands
"git rebase -i" had a minor regression recently, which stopped

- gc: remove stale .idx files without corresponding .pack file

* 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.

- 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.

- t5700: demonstrate a Windows file locking issue with `git clone --dissociate`
"git clone --dissociate" runs a big "git repack" process at the

- git-send-email.perl: Fixed sending of many/huge changes/patches
When "git send-email" wanted to talk over Net::SMTP::SSL,
Net::Cmd::datasend() did not like to be fed too many bytes at the
same time and failed to send messages. Send the payload one line
at a time to work around the problem.

* nd/gc-auto-background-fix (2015-09-21) 1 commit
- gc: save log from daemonized gc --auto and print it next time
When "git gc --auto" is backgrounded, its diagnosis message is
lost. Save it to a file in $GIT_DIR and show it next time the "gc
--auto" is run.
Will merge to 'next'.
* jk/graph-format-padding (2015-09-14) 1 commit
- pretty: pass graph width to pretty formatting for use in '%>|(N)'
Redefine the way '%>|(N)' padding and the "--graph" option
interacts. It has been that the available columns to display the
log message was measured from the edge of the area the graph ended,
but with this it becomes the beginning of the entire output.
I have a suspicion that 50% of the users would appreciate this
change, and the remainder see this break their expectation. If
that is the case, we might need to introduce a similar but
different alignment operator so that this new behaviour is
available to those who want to use it, without negatively affecting
existing uses.
Undecided.

+ dir.c: don't exclude whole dir prematurely if neg pattern may match
+ dir.c: make last_exclude_matching_from_list() run til the end
Allow a later "!/abc/def" to override an earlier "/abc" that

- submodule.c: write "Fetching submodule <foo>" to stderr
Add a framework to spawn a group of processes in parallel, and use
it to run "git fetch --recurse-submodules" in parallel.
The overall structure seems more-or-less sensible.

(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at c8047ba)
+ pager: don't use unsafe functions in signal handlers
Allocation related functions and stdio are unsafe things to call
inside a signal handler, and indeed killing the pager can cause
glibc to deadlock waiting on allocation mutex as our signal handler
tries to free() some data structures in wait_for_pager(). Reduce
these unsafe calls.

"git rerere" can encounter two or more files with the same conflict
signature that have to be resolved in different ways, but there was
no way to record these separate resolutions.

. Documentation: add git-log --merges= option and log.merges config. var

"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.

Warn when a reencoding is requested in a build without iconv

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.
