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. Quite a many topics that have been waiting before the most recent release have now been merged to 'next'; hopefully they will be ready for 'master' in a week or two. 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 -------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * jc/lock-report-on-error (2016-12-07) 3 commits - lockfile: LOCK_REPORT_ON_ERROR - hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update() - wt-status: implement opportunisitc index update correctly Git 2.11 had a minor regression in "merge --ff-only" that competed with another process that simultanously attempted to update the index. We used to explain what went wrong with an error message, but the new code silently failed. This resurrects the error message. Will merge to 'next'. * nd/shallow-fixup (2016-12-07) 6 commits - shallow.c: remove useless code - shallow.c: bit manipulation tweaks - shallow.c: avoid theoretical pointer wrap-around - shallow.c: make paint_alloc slightly more robust - shallow.c: stop abusing COMMIT_SLAB_SIZE for paint_info's memory pools - shallow.c: rename fields in paint_info to better express their purposes Code cleanup in shallow boundary computation. Will merge to 'next'. * sb/sequencer-abort-safety (2016-12-09) 5 commits - sequencer: remove useless get_dir() function - sequencer: make sequencer abort safer - t3510: test that cherry-pick --abort does not unsafely change HEAD - am: change safe_to_abort()'s not rewinding error into a warning - am: fix filename in safe_to_abort() error message Unlike "git am --abort", "git cherry-pick --abort" moved HEAD back to where cherry-pick started while picking multiple changes, when the cherry-pick stopped to ask for help from the user, and the user did "git reset --hard" to a different commit in order to re-attempt the operation. Will merge to 'next'. * kh/tutorial-grammofix (2016-12-09) 4 commits - doc: omit needless "for" - doc: make the intent of sentence clearer - doc: add verb in front of command to run - doc: add articles (grammar) Will merge to 'next'. * da/mergetool-xxdiff-hotkey (2016-12-11) 1 commit - mergetools: fix xxdiff hotkeys The way to specify hotkeys to "xxdiff" that is used by "git mergetool" has been modernized to match recent versions of xxdiff. Will merge to 'next'. * jk/difftool-in-subdir (2016-12-11) 4 commits - difftool: rename variables for consistency - difftool: chdir as early as possible - difftool: sanitize $workdir as early as possible - difftool: fix dir-diff index creation when in a subdirectory Even though an fix was attempted in Git 2.9.3 days, but running "git difftool --dir-diff" from a subdirectory never worked. This has been fixed. Will merge to 'next'. * js/mingw-isatty (2016-12-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 60c1da6676) + mingw: intercept isatty() to handle /dev/null as Git expects it We often decide if a session is interactive by checking if the standard I/O streams are connected to a TTY, but isatty() emulation on Windows incorrectly returned true if it is used on NUL (i.e. an equivalent to /dev/null). This has been fixed. Will merge to 'master'. * ew/svn-fixes (2016-12-12) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 91ed5b3cf3) + git-svn: document useLogAuthor and addAuthorFrom config keys + git-svn: allow "0" in SVN path components Will merge to 'master'. * lr/doc-fix-cet (2016-12-12) 1 commit - date-formats.txt: Typo fix Will merge to 'next'. * vs/submodule-clone-nested-submodules-alternates (2016-12-12) 1 commit - submodule--helper: set alternateLocation for cloned submodules "git clone --reference $there --recurse-submodules $super" has been taught to guess repositories usable as references for submodules of $super that are embedded in $there while making a clone of the superproject borrow objects from $there; extend the mechanism to also allow submodules of these submodules to borrow repositories embedded in these clones of the submodules embedded in the clone of the superproject. Will merge to 'next'. -------------------------------------------------- [Stalled] * jc/retire-compaction-heuristics (2016-11-02) 3 commits - SQUASH??? - SQUASH??? - diff: retire the original experimental "compaction" heuristics Waiting for a reroll. * jc/abbrev-autoscale-config (2016-11-01) 1 commit - config.abbrev: document the new default that auto-scales Waiting for a reroll. * jk/nofollow-attr-ignore (2016-11-02) 5 commits - exclude: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitignore - attr: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitattributes - exclude: convert "check_index" into a flags field - attr: convert "macro_ok" into a flags field - add open_nofollow() helper As we do not follow symbolic links when reading control files like .gitignore and .gitattributes from the index, match the behaviour and not follow symbolic links when reading them from the working tree. This also tightens security a bit by not leaking contents of an unrelated file in the error messages when it is pointed at by one of these files that is a symbolic link. Perhaps we want to cover .gitmodules too with the same mechanism? * nd/worktree-move (2016-11-28) 11 commits . worktree remove: new command . worktree move: refuse to move worktrees with submodules . worktree move: accept destination as directory . worktree move: new command . worktree.c: add update_worktree_location() . worktree.c: add validate_worktree() . copy.c: convert copy_file() to copy_dir_recursively() . copy.c: style fix . copy.c: convert bb_(p)error_msg to error(_errno) . copy.c: delete unused code in copy_file() . copy.c: import copy_file() from busybox (this branch uses nd/worktree-list-fixup; is tangled with sb/submodule-embed-gitdir.) "git worktree" learned move and remove subcommands. Reported to break builds on Windows. * jc/bundle (2016-03-03) 6 commits - index-pack: --clone-bundle option - Merge branch 'jc/index-pack' into jc/bundle - bundle v3: the beginning - bundle: keep a copy of bundle file name in the in-core bundle header - bundle: plug resource leak - bundle doc: 'verify' is not about verifying the bundle 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. While I think it would make it easier for people to experiment and build on if the topic is merged to 'next', I am at the same time a bit reluctant to merge an unproven new topic that introduces a new file format, which we may end up having to support til the end of time. It is likely that to support a "prime clone from CDN", it would need a lot more than just "these are the heads and the pack data is over there", so this may not be sufficient. Will discard. * mh/connect (2016-06-06) 10 commits - connect: [host:port] is legacy for ssh - connect: move ssh command line preparation to a separate function - connect: actively reject git:// urls with a user part - connect: change the --diag-url output to separate user and host - connect: make parse_connect_url() return the user part of the url as a separate value - connect: group CONNECT_DIAG_URL handling code - connect: make parse_connect_url() return separated host and port - connect: re-derive a host:port string from the separate host and port variables - connect: call get_host_and_port() earlier - connect: document why we sometimes call get_port after get_host_and_port Rewrite Git-URL parsing routine (hopefully) without changing any behaviour. It has been two months without any support. We may want to discard this. * ec/annotate-deleted (2015-11-20) 1 commit - annotate: skip checking working tree if a revision is provided Usability fix for annotate-specific "<file> <rev>" syntax with deleted files. Has been waiting for a review for too long without seeing anything. Will discard. * dk/gc-more-wo-pack (2016-01-13) 4 commits - gc: clean garbage .bitmap files from pack dir - t5304: ensure non-garbage files are not deleted - t5304: test .bitmap garbage files - prepare_packed_git(): find more garbage Follow-on to dk/gc-idx-wo-pack topic, to clean up stale .bitmap and .keep files. Has been waiting for a reroll for too long. cf. <xmqq60ypbeng.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Will discard. * 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. Will discard. -------------------------------------------------- [Cooking] * ak/lazy-prereq-mktemp (2016-11-29) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at f346d1f053) + t7610: clean up foo.XXXXXX tmpdir Test code clean-up. Will merge to 'master'. * da/mergetool-trust-exit-code (2016-11-29) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 28ae202868) + mergetools/vimdiff: trust Vim's exit code + mergetool: honor mergetool.$tool.trustExitCode for built-in tools mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode configuration variable did not apply to built-in tools, but now it does. Will merge to 'master'. * jb/diff-no-index-no-abbrev (2016-12-08) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 959981ef50) + diff: handle --no-abbrev in no-index case "git diff --no-index" did not take "--no-abbrev" option. Will merge to 'master'. * vk/p4-submit-shelve (2016-11-29) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 3fce6df117) + git-p4: allow submit to create shelved changelists. (this branch is used by ld/p4-update-shelve.) Will merge to 'master'. * jk/http-walker-limit-redirect-2.9 (2016-12-06) 5 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 3e4bcd7bca) + http: treat http-alternates like redirects + http: make redirects more obvious + remote-curl: rename shadowed options variable + http: always update the base URL for redirects + http: simplify update_url_from_redirect (this branch is used by jk/http-walker-limit-redirect.) Transport with dumb http can be fooled into following foreign URLs that the end user does not intend to, especially with the server side redirects and http-alternates mechanism, which can lead to security issues. Tighten the redirection and make it more obvious to the end user when it happens. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/http-walker-limit-redirect (2016-12-06) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 8b58025e3a) + http-walker: complain about non-404 loose object errors + Merge branch 'ew/http-walker' into jk/http-walker-limit-redirect (this branch uses jk/http-walker-limit-redirect-2.9.) Update the error messages from the dumb-http client when it fails to obtain loose objects; we used to give sensible error message only upon 404 but we now forbid unexpected redirects that needs to be reported with something sensible. Will merge to 'master'. * ah/grammos (2016-12-05) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 13ad487b28) + clone,fetch: explain the shallow-clone option a little more clearly + receive-pack: improve English grammar of denyCurrentBranch message + bisect: improve English grammar of not-ancestors message A few messages have been fixed for their grammatical errors. Will merge to 'master'. * ak/commit-only-allow-empty (2016-12-09) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 54188ab23c) + commit: remove 'Clever' message for --only --amend + commit: make --only --allow-empty work without paths "git commit --allow-empty --only" (no pathspec) with dirty index ought to be an acceptable way to create a new commit that does not change any paths, but it was forbidden (perhaps because nobody needed it). Will merge to 'master'. * bb/unicode-9.0 (2016-12-11) 6 commits - update_unicode.sh: restore hexadecimal output - update_unicode.sh: remove the plane filters - update_unicode.sh: update the uniset repo if it exists - unicode_width.h: update the tables to Unicode 9.0 - update_unicode.sh: strip the plane offsets from the double_width[] table - update_unicode.sh: automatically download newer definition files The character width table has been updated to match Unicode 9.0 Will merge to 'next'. * ld/p4-update-shelve (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 22f6bec94c) + git-p4: support updating an existing shelved changelist (this branch uses vk/p4-submit-shelve.) Will merge to 'master'. * ld/p4-worktree (2016-12-05) 1 commit - git-p4: support secondary working trees managed by "git worktree" Iffy. cf. <20161202224319.5385-2-luke@xxxxxxxxxxx> * ls/p4-empty-file-on-lfs (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 1fce8e037a) + git-p4: fix empty file processing for large file system backend GitLFS "git p4" LFS support was broken when LFS stores an empty blob. Will merge to 'master'. * ls/p4-retry-thrice (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 9462e660a8) + git-p4: add config to retry p4 commands; retry 3 times by default Will merge to 'master'. * ls/t0021-fixup (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at db652e691a) + t0021: minor filter process test cleanup Will merge to 'master'. * ls/travis-update-p4-and-lfs (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 5496caa048) + travis-ci: update P4 to 16.2 and GitLFS to 1.5.2 in Linux build The default Travis-CI configuration specifies newer P4 and GitLFS. Will merge to 'master'. * sb/t3600-cleanup (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at d9996af5e8) + t3600: remove useless redirect Code cleanup. Will merge to 'master'. * sb/unpack-trees-grammofix (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 29e536f590) + unpack-trees: fix grammar for untracked files in directories Will merge to 'master'. * da/difftool-dir-diff-fix (2016-12-08) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at fd31a92ad6) + difftool: fix dir-diff index creation when in a subdirectory "git difftool --dir-diff" had a minor regression when started from a subdirectory, which has been fixed. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/stash-disable-renames-internally (2016-12-06) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at e2b97aae68) + stash: prefer plumbing over git-diff When diff.renames configuration is on (and with Git 2.9 and later, it is enabled by default, which made it worse), "git stash" misbehaved if a file is removed and another file with a very similar content is added. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/xdiff-drop-xdl-fast-hash (2016-12-06) 1 commit - xdiff: drop XDL_FAST_HASH Retire the "fast hash" that had disastrous performance issues in some corner cases. Will merge to 'next'. * ls/filter-process (2016-12-06) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 8ed1f9eb02) + docs: warn about possible '=' in clean/smudge filter process values Doc update. Will merge to 'master'. * nd/for-each-ref-ignore-case (2016-12-05) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 527cc4f275) + tag, branch, for-each-ref: add --ignore-case for sorting and filtering "git branch --list" and friends learned "--ignore-case" option to optionally sort branches and tags case insensitively. Will merge to 'master'. * rj/git-version-gen-do-not-force-abbrev (2016-12-06) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at e37970c3f5) + GIT-VERSION-GEN: do not force abbreviation length used by 'describe' A minor build update. Will merge to 'master'. * jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf (2016-12-01) 4 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 041b834f81) + convert: git cherry-pick -Xrenormalize did not work + Merge branch 'tb/t0027-raciness-fix' into jc/renormalize-merge-kill-safer-crlf + merge-recursive: handle NULL in add_cacheinfo() correctly + cherry-pick: demonstrate a segmentation fault Fix a corner case in merge-recursive regression that crept in during 2.10 development cycle. Will merge to 'master'. * js/difftool-builtin (2016-11-28) 2 commits - difftool: implement the functionality in the builtin - difftool: add a skeleton for the upcoming builtin Rewrite a scripted porcelain "git difftool" in C. Under discussion. * nd/qsort-in-merge-recursive (2016-11-28) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at e9700f5b93) + merge-recursive.c: use string_list_sort instead of qsort Code simplification. Will merge to 'master'. * bw/push-dry-run (2016-11-23) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at bde7a0f9ae) + push: fix --dry-run to not push submodules + push: --dry-run updates submodules when --recurse-submodules=on-demand (this branch uses hv/submodule-not-yet-pushed-fix; is tangled with sb/push-make-submodule-check-the-default.) "git push --dry-run --recurse-submodule=on-demand" wasn't "--dry-run" in the submodules. Will merge to 'master'. * sb/push-make-submodule-check-the-default (2016-11-29) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 1863e05af5) + push: change submodule default to check when submodules exist + submodule add: extend force flag to add existing repos (this branch uses hv/submodule-not-yet-pushed-fix; is tangled with bw/push-dry-run.) Turn the default of "push.recurseSubmodules" to "check" when submodules seem to be in use. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/rev-parse-symbolic-parents-fix (2016-11-16) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 6839c1ea28) + rev-parse: fix parent shorthands with --symbolic "git rev-parse --symbolic" failed with a more recent notation like "HEAD^-1" and "HEAD^!". Will merge to 'master'. * nd/worktree-list-fixup (2016-11-28) 5 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 1f46421a59) + worktree list: keep the list sorted + worktree.c: get_worktrees() takes a new flag argument + get_worktrees() must return main worktree as first item even on error + worktree: reorder an if statement + worktree.c: zero new 'struct worktree' on allocation (this branch is used by nd/worktree-move and sb/submodule-embed-gitdir.) The output from "git worktree list" was made in readdir() order, and was unstable. Will merge to 'master'. * jk/trailers-placeholder-in-pretty (2016-12-11) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 57de4e699a) + ref-filter: add support to display trailers as part of contents + pretty: add %(trailers) format for displaying trailers of a commit message (this branch uses jt/use-trailer-api-in-commands.) In addition to %(subject), %(body), "log --pretty=format:..." learned a new placeholder %(trailers). Will merge to 'master'. * sb/submodule-embed-gitdir (2016-12-09) 6 commits - submodule: add absorb-git-dir function - move connect_work_tree_and_git_dir to dir.h - worktree: have a function to check if worktrees are in use - test-lib-functions.sh: teach test_commit -C <dir> - submodule helper: support super prefix - submodule: use absolute path for computing relative path connecting (this branch uses nd/worktree-list-fixup; is tangled with nd/worktree-move.) A new submodule helper "git submodule embedgitdirs" to make it easier to move embedded .git/ directory for submodules in a superproject to .git/modules/ (and point the latter with the former that is turned into a "gitdir:" file) has been added. Waiting for review to conclude. cf. <20161208014623.7588-1-sbeller@xxxxxxxxxx> * dt/empty-submodule-in-merge (2016-11-17) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 6de2350b2b) + submodules: allow empty working-tree dirs in merge/cherry-pick An empty directory in a working tree that can simply be nuked used to interfere while merging or cherry-picking a change to create a submodule directory there, which has been fixed.. Will merge to 'master'. * bw/grep-recurse-submodules (2016-11-22) 6 commits - grep: search history of moved submodules - grep: enable recurse-submodules to work on <tree> objects - grep: optionally recurse into submodules - grep: add submodules as a grep source type - submodules: load gitmodules file from commit sha1 - submodules: add helper functions to determine presence of submodules "git grep" learns to optionally recurse into submodules Has anybody else seen t7814 being flakey with this series? * dt/smart-http-detect-server-going-away (2016-11-18) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 3ea70d01af) + upload-pack: optionally allow fetching any sha1 + remote-curl: don't hang when a server dies before any output Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-21 When the http server gives an incomplete response to a smart-http rpc call, it could lead to client waiting for a full response that will never come. Teach the client side to notice this condition and abort the transfer. An improvement counterproposal has failed. cf. <20161114194049.mktpsvgdhex2f4zv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Will cook in 'next'. * mm/push-social-engineering-attack-doc (2016-11-14) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 9a2b5bd1a9) + doc: mention transfer data leaks in more places Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-16 Doc update on fetching and pushing. Will cook in 'next'. * jc/compression-config (2016-11-15) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 323769ca07) + compression: unify pack.compression configuration parsing Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-23 Compression setting for producing packfiles were spread across three codepaths, one of which did not honor any configuration. Unify these so that all of them honor core.compression and pack.compression variables the same way. Will cook in 'next'. * mm/gc-safety-doc (2016-11-16) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 031ecc1886) + git-gc.txt: expand discussion of races with other processes Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-17 Doc update. Will cook in 'next'. * hv/submodule-not-yet-pushed-fix (2016-11-16) 4 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at c9d729fca2) + submodule_needs_pushing(): explain the behaviour when we cannot answer + batch check whether submodule needs pushing into one call + serialize collection of refs that contain submodule changes + serialize collection of changed submodules (this branch is used by bw/push-dry-run and sb/push-make-submodule-check-the-default.) Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-21 The code in "git push" to compute if any commit being pushed in the superproject binds a commit in a submodule that hasn't been pushed out was overly inefficient, making it unusable even for a small project that does not have any submodule but have a reasonable number of refs. Will cook in 'next'. * kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2016-12-08) 20 commits - branch: implement '--format' option - branch: use ref-filter printing APIs - branch, tag: use porcelain output - ref-filter: allow porcelain to translate messages in the output - ref-filter: add an 'rstrip=<N>' option to atoms which deal with refnames - ref-filter: modify the 'lstrip=<N>' option to work with negative '<N>' - ref-filter: rename the 'strip' option to 'lstrip' - ref-filter: make remote_ref_atom_parser() use refname_atom_parser_internal() - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser() - ref-filter: introduce refname_atom_parser_internal() - ref-filter: make "%(symref)" atom work with the ':short' modifier - ref-filter: add support for %(upstream:track,nobracket) - ref-filter: make %(upstream:track) prints "[gone]" for invalid upstreams - ref-filter: introduce format_ref_array_item() - ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c - ref-filter: modify "%(objectname:short)" to take length - ref-filter: implement %(if:equals=<string>) and %(if:notequals=<string>) - ref-filter: include reference to 'used_atom' within 'atom_value' - ref-filter: implement %(if), %(then), and %(else) atoms - for-each-ref: do not segv with %(HEAD) on an unborn branch The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated with the more generic ref-filter API. Rerolled, reviewed, looking good. * bw/transport-protocol-policy (2016-12-05) 5 commits - transport: add from_user parameter to is_transport_allowed - http: create function to get curl allowed protocols - http: always warn if libcurl version is too old - transport: add protocol policy config option - lib-proto-disable: variable name fix Finer-grained control of what protocols are allowed for transports during clone/fetch/push have been enabled via a new configuration mechanism. * jt/fetch-no-redundant-tag-fetch-map (2016-11-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 432f9469a7) + fetch: do not redundantly calculate tag refmap Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-16 Code cleanup to avoid using redundant refspecs while fetching with the --tags option. Will cook in 'next'. * sb/submodule-config-cleanup (2016-11-22) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 658b8764bf) + submodule-config: clarify parsing of null_sha1 element + submodule-config: rename commit_sha1 to treeish_name + submodule config: inline config_from_{name, path} Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-23 Minor code clean-up. Will cook in 'next'. * jc/push-default-explicit (2016-10-31) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at d63f3777af) + push: test pushing ambiguously named branches + push: do not use potentially ambiguous default refspec Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-01 A lazy "git push" without refspec did not internally use a fully specified refspec to perform 'current', 'simple', or 'upstream' push, causing unnecessary "ambiguous ref" errors. Will cook in 'next'. * jt/use-trailer-api-in-commands (2016-11-29) 5 commits (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at da1f140ad4) + sequencer: use trailer's trailer layout + trailer: have function to describe trailer layout + trailer: avoid unnecessary splitting on lines + commit: make ignore_non_trailer take buf/len + trailer: be stricter in parsing separators (this branch is used by jk/trailers-placeholder-in-pretty.) Commands that operate on a log message and add lines to the trailer blocks, such as "format-patch -s", "cherry-pick (-x|-s)", and "commit -s", have been taught to use the logic of and share the code with "git interpret-trailer". Will merge to 'master'. * nd/rebase-forget (2016-12-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-12 at 50b5d28af4) + rebase: add --quit to cleanup rebase, leave everything else untouched "git rebase" learned "--forget" option, which allows a user to remove the metadata left by an earlier "git rebase" that was manually aborted without using "git rebase --abort". Will merge to 'master'. * jc/git-open-cloexec (2016-11-02) 3 commits - sha1_file: stop opening files with O_NOATIME - git_open_cloexec(): use fcntl(2) w/ FD_CLOEXEC fallback - git_open(): untangle possible NOATIME and CLOEXEC interactions The codeflow of setting NOATIME and CLOEXEC on file descriptors Git opens has been simplified. We may want to drop the tip one. * jk/no-looking-at-dotgit-outside-repo-final (2016-10-26) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 0c77e39cd5) + setup_git_env: avoid blind fall-back to ".git" Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-10-26 This is the endgame of the topic to avoid blindly falling back to ".git" when the setup sequence said we are _not_ in Git repository. A corner case that happens to work right now may be broken by a call to die("BUG"). Will cook in 'next'. * jc/reset-unmerge (2016-10-24) 1 commit - reset: --unmerge After "git add" is run prematurely during a conflict resolution, "git diff" can no longer be used as a way to sanity check by looking at the combined diff. "git reset" learned a new "--unmerge" option to recover from this situation. Will discard. This may not be needed, given that update-index has a similar option. * jc/merge-base-fp-only (2016-10-19) 8 commits . merge-base: fp experiment - merge: allow to use only the fp-only merge bases - merge-base: limit the output to bases that are on first-parent chain - merge-base: mark bases that are on first-parent chain - merge-base: expose get_merge_bases_many_0() a bit more - merge-base: stop moving commits around in remove_redundant() - sha1_name: remove ONELINE_SEEN bit - commit: simplify fastpath of merge-base An experiment of merge-base that ignores common ancestors that are not on the first parent chain. Will discard. The whole premise feels wrong. * tb/convert-stream-check (2016-10-27) 2 commits - convert.c: stream and fast search for binary - read-cache: factor out get_sha1_from_index() helper End-of-line conversion sometimes needs to see if the current blob in the index has NULs and CRs to base its decision. We used to always get a full statistics over the blob, but in many cases we can return early when we have seen "enough" (e.g. if we see a single NUL, the blob will be handled as binary). The codepaths have been optimized by using streaming interface. Will discard. Retracted. cf. <20161102071646.GA5094@tb-raspi> * pb/bisect (2016-10-18) 27 commits - bisect--helper: remove the dequote in bisect_start() - bisect--helper: retire `--bisect-auto-next` subcommand - bisect--helper: retire `--bisect-autostart` subcommand - bisect--helper: retire `--bisect-write` subcommand - bisect--helper: `bisect_replay` shell function in C - bisect--helper: `bisect_log` shell function in C - bisect--helper: retire `--write-terms` subcommand - bisect--helper: retire `--check-expected-revs` subcommand - bisect--helper: `bisect_state` & `bisect_head` shell function in C - bisect--helper: `bisect_autostart` shell function in C - bisect--helper: retire `--next-all` subcommand - bisect--helper: retire `--bisect-clean-state` subcommand - bisect--helper: `bisect_next` and `bisect_auto_next` shell function in C - t6030: no cleanup with bad merge base - bisect--helper: `bisect_start` shell function partially in C - bisect--helper: `get_terms` & `bisect_terms` shell function in C - bisect--helper: `bisect_next_check` & bisect_voc shell function in C - bisect--helper: `check_and_set_terms` shell function in C - bisect--helper: `bisect_write` shell function in C - bisect--helper: `is_expected_rev` & `check_expected_revs` shell function in C - bisect--helper: `bisect_reset` shell function in C - wrapper: move is_empty_file() and rename it as is_empty_or_missing_file() - t6030: explicitly test for bisection cleanup - bisect--helper: `bisect_clean_state` shell function in C - bisect--helper: `write_terms` shell function in C - bisect: rewrite `check_term_format` shell function in C - bisect--helper: use OPT_CMDMODE instead of OPT_BOOL Move more parts of "git bisect" to C. Waiting for review. * st/verify-tag (2016-10-10) 7 commits - t/t7004-tag: Add --format specifier tests - t/t7030-verify-tag: Add --format specifier tests - builtin/tag: add --format argument for tag -v - builtin/verify-tag: add --format to verify-tag - tag: add format specifier to gpg_verify_tag - ref-filter: add function to print single ref_array_item - gpg-interface, tag: add GPG_VERIFY_QUIET flag "git tag" and "git verify-tag" learned to put GPG verification status in their "--format=<placeholders>" output format. Waiting for a reroll. cf. <20161007210721.20437-1-santiago@xxxxxxx> * sb/attr (2016-11-11) 35 commits - completion: clone can initialize specific submodules - clone: add --init-submodule=<pathspec> switch - submodule update: add `--init-default-path` switch - pathspec: allow escaped query values - pathspec: allow querying for attributes - pathspec: move prefix check out of the inner loop - pathspec: move long magic parsing out of prefix_pathspec - Documentation: fix a typo - attr: keep attr stack for each check - attr: convert to new threadsafe API - attr: make git_check_attr_counted static - attr.c: outline the future plans by heavily commenting - attr.c: always pass check[] to collect_some_attrs() - attr.c: introduce empty_attr_check_elems() - attr.c: correct ugly hack for git_all_attrs() - attr.c: rename a local variable check - attr.c: pass struct git_attr_check down the callchain - attr.c: add push_stack() helper - attr: support quoting pathname patterns in C style - attr: expose validity check for attribute names - attr: add counted string version of git_check_attr() - attr: retire git_check_attrs() API - attr: convert git_check_attrs() callers to use the new API - attr: convert git_all_attrs() to use "struct git_attr_check" - attr: (re)introduce git_check_attr() and struct git_attr_check - attr: rename function and struct related to checking attributes - attr.c: plug small leak in parse_attr_line() - attr.c: tighten constness around "git_attr" structure - attr.c: simplify macroexpand_one() - attr.c: mark where #if DEBUG ends more clearly - attr.c: complete a sentence in a comment - attr.c: explain the lack of attr-name syntax check in parse_attr() - attr.c: update a stale comment on "struct match_attr" - attr.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line - commit.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried. Building on top of the updated API, the pathspec machinery learned to select only paths with given attributes set.

Waiting for review. cf. <20161208142401.1329-1-szeder.dev@xxxxxxxxx> * jc/pull-rebase-ff (2016-11-29) 1 commit - pull: fast-forward "pull --rebase=true" "git pull --rebase", when there is no new commits on our side since we forked from the upstream, should be able to fast-forward without invoking "git rebase", but it didn't. * jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 041946dae0) + merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-10-11 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.
