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 ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.
The 'master' branch now has the eleventh batch of topics of this
cycle. On the 'maint' front, 2.8.2 is out and fixes that have been
in 'master' accumulates on it for 2.8.3.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

* jc/commit-tree-ignore-commit-gpgsign (2016-05-03) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2016-05-06 at 08eccb2)
+ commit-tree: do not pay attention to commit.gpgsign
"git commit-tree" plumbing command required the user to always sign
its result when the user sets the commit.gpgsign configuration
variable, which was an ancient mistake. Rework "git rebase" that
relied on this mistake so that it reads commit.gpgsign and pass (or
not pass) the -S option to "git commit-tree" to keep the end-user
expectation the same, while teaching "git commit-tree" to ignore
the configuration variable. This will stop requiring the users to
sign commit objects used internally as an implementation detail of
"git stash".

The "git apply" standalone program is being libified; this is the
first step to move many state variables into a structure that can
be explicitly (re)initialized to make the machinery callable more
than once.
The next step that moves some remaining state variables into the
structure and turns die()s into an error return that propagates up
to the caller is not queued yet but in flight. It would be good to
review the above first and give the remainder of the series a solid
base to build on.

deeper. A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
easier to use. "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
"I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
"Give me only the history since that version".

* js/am-3-merge-recursive-direct (2015-10-12) 2 commits
- 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, the change needs to be 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.

"git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a

Running tests with '-x' option to trace the individual command
executions is a useful way to debug test scripts, but some tests
that capture the standard error stream and check what the command

our tests under "bash", however, we can redirect the trace output

+ submodule deinit: require '--all' instead of '.' for all submodules
Correct faulty recommendation to use "git submodule deinit ." when
de-initialising all submodules, which would result in a strange
error message in a pathological corner case.

+ t0040: remove unused test helpers
+ test-parse-options: --expect=<string> option to simplify tests
+ test-parse-options: fix output when callback option fails
(this branch uses pb/commit-verbose-config.)
t0040 had too many unnecessary repetitions in its test data. Teach
test-parse-options program so that a caller can tell what it
expects in its output, so that these repetitions can be cleaned up.

* jc/doc-lint (2016-05-10) 1 commit
- ci: validate "linkgit:" in documentation
Find common mistakes when writing gitlink: in our documentation and
drive the check from "make check-docs".
I am not entirely happy with the way the script chooses what input
file to validate, but it is not worse than not having anything, so
let's move it forward and have the logic improved later when people
care about it deeply.

Some Windows SDK lacks pthread_sigmask() implementation and fails

+ http: expand http.cookieFile as a path

"http.cookieFile" configuration variable clearly wants a pathname,

+ submodule: export sanitized GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS
+ t5550: break submodule config test into multiple sub-tests
+ t5550: fix typo in $HTTPD_URL
(this branch is used by js/http-custom-headers.)
An earlier addition of "sanitize_submodule_env" with 14111fc4 (git:
submodule honor -c credential.* from command line, 2016-02-29)
turned out to be a convoluted no-op; implement what it wanted to do
correctly, and stop filtering settings given via "git -c var=val".

"git fast-import" learned the same performance trick to avoid

using *.unpackLimit configuration.

* nd/worktree-various-heads (2016-04-22) 13 commits

(this branch is used by nd/worktree-cleanup-post-head-protection.)
The experimental "multiple worktree" feature gains more safety to
forbid operations on a branch that is checked out or being actively
worked on elsewhere, by noticing that e.g. it is being rebased.

* jc/ll-merge-internal (2016-05-09) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2016-05-10 at a6bf1d0)
+ t6036: remove pointless test that expects failure
+ ll-merge: use a longer conflict marker for internal merge
+ ll-merge: fix typo in comment
"git rerere" can get confused by conflict markers deliberately left
by the inner merge step, because they are indistinguishable from
the real conflict markers left by the outermost merge which are
what the end user and "rerere" need to look at. This was fixed by
making the conflict markers left by the inner merges a bit longer.
Will merge to 'master'.

Update of "git submodule" to move pieces of logic to C continues.
Will cook for a bit more in 'next'.
* jc/send-email-skip-backup (2016-04-12) 1 commit
- send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files
A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
embarrassment and a minor confusion. Detect such an input and
offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.
Needs review.

optionally interface with the watchman daemon to further reduce the
refresh cost.

The beginning of "split bundle", which could be one of the
ingredients to allow "git clone" traffic off of the core server
network to CDN.
* jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
- merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax
Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has
been deprecated since October 2007, and issues a deprecation
warning message since v2.5.0.
It has been reported that git-gui still uses the deprecated syntax,
which needs to be fixed before this final step can proceed.
