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 big thank-you to Peff for managing the list traffic during my
absence for the past few weeks. I think my tree is now back in
shape and I started merging a handful of topics to 'next' and
'master'. What's in 'master' plus just a few trivial topics in
'next' should be pretty much "it" for the upcoming release.
You can find the normal integration branches at:
https://github.com/git/git/
and all topic branches at:
https://github.com/peff/git/
But note that I will _not_ be pushing to kernel.org.

[Graduated to "master"]
* ad/sha1-update-chunked (2015-11-05) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-12-01 at a22bf47)
+ sha1: allow limiting the size of the data passed to SHA1_Update()
+ sha1: provide another level of indirection for the SHA-1 functions
Apple's common crypto implementation of SHA1_Update() does not take

for it.

- setup.c: re-fix d95138e (setup: set env $GIT_WORK_TREE when ..
- git.c: make it clear save_env() is for alias handling only
d95138e6 (setup: set env $GIT_WORK_TREE when work tree is set, like
$GIT_DIR, 2015-06-26) attempted to work around a glitch in alias
handling by overwriting GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable to
affect subprocesses when set_git_work_tree() gets called, which
resulted in a rather unpleasant regression to "clone" and "init".
Try to address the same issue by always restoring the environment
and respawning the real underlying command when handling alias.

. WIPWIP
. WIP: diff-b-m
- diffcore-rename: allow easier 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.

(merged to 'next' on 2015-12-04 at e7852e1)
+ Add Travis CI support
Provides the necessary infrastructure to build topics using the free
Travis CI. Developers forking from this topic (and enabling Travis) can
do their own builds, and we can turn on auto-builds for git/git

Allow users of git-sh-setup to handle orphan branch state.
This series takes the conservative route of requiring scripts to opt

. grep: add --threads=<num> option and grep.threads configuration

* kf/http-proxy-auth-methods (2015-11-04) 3 commits
. SQUASH???
. http: use credential API to handle proxy authentication
. http: allow selection of proxy authentication method
New http.proxyAuthMethod configuration variable can be used to
specify what authentication method to use, as a way to work around
proxies that do not give error response expected by libcurl when
CURLAUTH_ANY is used. Also, the codepath for proxy authentication
has been taught to use credential API to store the authentication
material in user's keyrings.
I ejected this from pu for the moment, as it conflicts with the
pt/http-socks-proxy topic. That is now in master, so it can
be re-rolled on top.
Still being worked on.

(this branch is tangled with sb/submodule-parallel-fetch.)
Builds on top of the "fetch --recurse-submodules" work to introduce
parallel downloading into multiple submodules for "submodule update".
Waiting for sb/submodule-parallel-fetch to stabilize.
It would be the cleanest to rebuild sb/submodule-parallel-fetch on
top of 2.7.0 once it ships and then build this directly on top;
that way, we do not have to have merges in this topic that
distracting (besides, some part of the other topic can be updated
in-place instead of this follow-up topic tweaking them as past
mistakes and inflexibilities).
I picked up v4 from the list, but it needs review.

Teach codepaths that communicate with users by reading text files
to be more lenient to editors that write CRLF-terminated lines.
Note that this is only about communication with Git, like feeding
list of object names from the standard input instead of from the
command line, and does not involve files in the working tree.
Waiting for review.
* ep/ident-with-getaddrinfo (2015-11-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-12-01 at 0775d4c)
+ ident.c: add support for IPv6
A build without NO_IPv6 used to use gethostbyname() when guessing
user's hostname, instead of getaddrinfo() that is used in other
codepaths in such a build.
Will merge to 'master' by -rc0.
* mh/notes-allow-reading-treeish (2015-10-08) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-10-23 at 8a697f0)
+ notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref
+ Merge branch 'jk/notes-dwim-doc' into next
+ Merge branch 'jc/merge-drop-old-syntax' into next
(this branch uses jc/merge-drop-old-syntax.)
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).
As the patch was done on top of the 'drop old-syntax from merge',
this has to wait until that other topic can graduate, unfortunately.
It can be redone in a way that does not depend on that topic after
this cycle, though.
Will keep in 'next'.
* jc/mailinfo (2015-10-21) 1 commit
- mailinfo: ignore in-body header that we do not care about
Some people write arbitrary garbage at the beginning of a piece of
e-mail (or after -- >8 -- scissors -- >8 -- line) in the commit log
message and expect them to be discarded, even though "From:" and
"Subject:" are the only documented in-body headers that you are
supposed to have there. Allow some garbage (specifically, what may
look like RFC2822 headers like "MIME-Version: ...") to be there and
ignore them.
I have a feeling that that this is a step in a wrong direction.
Comments?
* js/am-3-merge-recursive-direct (2015-10-12) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-10-23 at dc631e5)
+ am: make a direct call to merge_recursive
+ merge_recursive_options: introduce the "gently" flag
The merge_recursive_generic() function has been made a bit safer to
call from inside a process. "git am -3" was taught to make a direct
call to the function when falling back to three-way merge.
Being able to make a direct call would be good in general, but as a
performance thing, we would want to see it backed up by numbers.
I haven't gone through the "gently" change with fine toothed comb;
I can see that the change avoids calling die(), but I haven't made
sure that the program states (e.g. what's in the in-core index) are
adjusted sensibly when it returns to the caller instead of dying,
or the codepaths that used to die() are free of resource leaks.
The original code certainly did not care the program states at the
point of dying exactly because it knew it is going to exit, but now
they have to care, and they need to be audited.
Will keep in 'next'.
* sg/pretty-more-date-mode-format (2015-10-07) 1 commit
- pretty: add format specifiers for short and raw date formats

* 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.

"git rerere" can encounter two or more files with the same conflict

Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-05-28
Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
been deprecated since October 2007. It has been reported that
git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax, which needs to be fixed
before this final step can proceed.
