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.
Among the topics merged to 'master' since v2.12 was tagged, 40+ of
them could be also merged to 'maint' (some of these are new features
and by default should not be, though). Among them two are fixes for
regressions found in v2.12:
* The patch subcommand of "git add -i" was meant to have paths
selection prompt just like other subcommand, unlike "git add -p"
directly jumps to hunk selection. Recently, this was broken and
"add -i" lost the paths selection dialog, but it now has been
fixed.
(merge c852bd54bd jk/add-i-patch-do-prompt later to maint).
* Git v2.12 was shipped with an embarrassing breakage where various
operations that verify paths given from the user stopped dying when
seeing an issue, and instead later triggering segfault.
(merge ce83eadd9a js/realpath-pathdup-fix later to maint).
These two have been merged to 'master' only a few days ago;
additional tests on 'master' to make sure they fix the issues, and
more importantly they do not introduce new regressions, are greatly
appreciated. I am hoping we can merge them (and probably others)
to 'maint' to cut v2.12.1 by early next week.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

[Graduated to "master"]
* ab/cond-skip-tests (2017-03-01) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 38124fb5ce)
+ gitweb tests: skip tests when we don't have Time::HiRes
+ gitweb tests: change confusing "skip_all" phrasing
+ cvs tests: skip tests that call "cvs commit" when running as root
A few tests were run conditionally under (rare) conditions where
they cannot be run (like running cvs tests under 'root' account).
* dp/filter-branch-prune-empty (2017-03-03) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 9317e24cd3)
+ p7000: add test for filter-branch with --prune-empty
+ filter-branch: fix --prune-empty on parentless commits
+ t7003: ensure --prune-empty removes entire branch when applicable
+ t7003: ensure --prune-empty can prune root commit
"git filter-branch --prune-empty" drops a single-parent commit that
becomes a no-op, but did not drop a root commit whose tree is empty.
* ew/http-alternates-as-redirects-warning (2017-03-06) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 23be072a07)
+ http: release strbuf on disabled alternates
+ http: inform about alternates-as-redirects behavior
Recent versions of Git treats http alternates (used in dumb http
transport) just like HTTP redirects and requires the client to
enable following it, due to security concerns. But we forgot to
give a warning when we decide not to honor the alternates.
* jk/interpret-branch-name (2017-03-02) 9 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 95cc55f9a3)
+ checkout: restrict @-expansions when finding branch
+ strbuf_check_ref_format(): expand only local branches
+ branch: restrict @-expansions when deleting
+ t3204: test git-branch @-expansion corner cases
+ interpret_branch_name: allow callers to restrict expansions
+ strbuf_branchname: add docstring
+ strbuf_branchname: drop return value
+ interpret_branch_name: move docstring to header file
+ interpret_branch_name(): handle auto-namelen for @{-1}
"git branch @" created refs/heads/@ as a branch, and in general the
code that handled @{-1} and @{upstream} was a bit too loose in
disambiguating.
* jk/push-deadlock-regression-fix (2017-03-07) 6 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at ceb0b819bf)
+ send-pack: report signal death of pack-objects
+ send-pack: read "unpack" status even on pack-objects failure
+ send-pack: improve unpack-status error messages
+ send-pack: use skip_prefix for parsing unpack status
+ send-pack: extract parsing of "unpack" response
+ receive-pack: fix deadlock when we cannot create tmpdir
"git push" had a handful of codepaths that could lead to a deadlock
when unexpected error happened, which has been fixed.
* js/travis-32bit-linux (2017-03-06) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 4cb69d0f77)
+ Travis: also test on 32-bit Linux
Add 32-bit Linux variant to the set of platforms to be tested with
Travis CI.
* jt/perf-updates (2017-03-03) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 0c0b124ed4)
+ t/perf: add fallback for pre-bin-wrappers versions of git
+ t/perf: use $MODERN_GIT for all repo-copying steps
+ t/perf: export variable used in other blocks
The t/perf performance test suite was not prepared to test not so
old versions of Git, but now it covers versions of Git that are not
so ancient.
* kn/ref-filter-branch-list (2017-03-10) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 73b43443f1)
+ branch: honor --abbrev/--no-abbrev in --list mode
"git branch --list" takes the "--abbrev" and "--no-abbrev" options
to control the output of the object name in its "-v"(erbose)
output, but a recent update started ignoring them; this fixes it
before the breakage reaches to any released version.
* mm/fetch-show-error-message-on-unadvertised-object (2017-03-02) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-10 at 69e2023804)
+ fetch-pack: add specific error for fetching an unadvertised object
+ fetch_refs_via_pack: call report_unmatched_refs
+ fetch-pack: move code to report unmatched refs to a function
"git fetch" that requests a commit by object name, when the other
side does not allow such an request, failed without much
explanation.
--------------------------------------------------
[New Topics]
* bw/submodule-is-active (2017-03-14) 10 commits
- submodule add: respect submodule.active and submodule.<name>.active
- submodule--helper init: set submodule.<name>.active
- completion: clone can initialize specific submodules
- clone: add --submodule-spec=<pathspec> switch
- submodule update: add `--init-active` switch
- submodule: decouple url and submodule existence
- submodule--helper clone: check for configured submodules using helper
- submodule sync: use submodule--helper is-active
- submodule status: use submodule--helper is-active
- submodule--helper: add is-active command
"what URL do we want to update this submodule?" and "are we
interested in this submodule?" are split into two distinct
concepts, and then the way used to express the latter got extended,
paving a way to make it easier to manage a project with many
submodules and make it possible to later extend use of multiple
worktrees for a project with submodules.
This looks like almost ready for 'next' modulo minor niggles.
* jk/add-i-use-pathspecs (2017-03-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-14 at 13ce4d91e1)
+ add--interactive: do not expand pathspecs with ls-files
"git add -p <pathspec>" unnecessarily expanded the pathspec to a
list of individual files that matches the pathspec by running "git
ls-files <pathspec>", before feeding it to "git diff-index" to see
which paths have changes, because historically the pathspec
language supported by "diff-index" was weaker. These days they are
equivalent and there is no reason to internally expand it. This
helps both performance and avoids command line argument limit on
some platforms.
Will merge to 'master'.
* mg/status-porcelain-no-i18n (2017-03-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-03-14 at 0955895825)
+ git-status: make porcelain more robust
"git status --porcelain" is supposed to give a stable output, but a
few strings were left as translatable by mistake.
Will merge to 'master'.

- squash! completion: fill COMPREPLY directly when completing refs
- completion: fill COMPREPLY directly when completing refs
- completion: list only matching symbolic and pseudorefs when completing refs
- completion: let 'for-each-ref' sort remote branches for 'checkout' DWIMery

- completion: let 'for-each-ref' strip the remote name from remote branches
- completion: let 'for-each-ref' and 'ls-remote' filter matching refs
- completion: don't disambiguate short refs
- completion: don't disambiguate tags and branches
- completion: support excluding full refs
- completion: support completing full refs after '--option=refs/<TAB>'
- completion: wrap __git_refs() for better option parsing
- completion: remove redundant __gitcomp_nl() options from _git_commit()
The refs completion for large number of refs has been sped up,
partly by giving up disambiguating ambiguous refs and partly by
eliminating most of the shell processing between 'git for-each-ref'
and 'ls-remote' and Bash's completion facility.

* sh/grep-tree-obj-tweak-output (2017-01-20) 2 commits
- grep: use '/' delimiter for paths
- grep: only add delimiter if there isn't one already
"git grep", when fed a tree-ish as an input, shows each hit
prefixed with "<tree-ish>:<path>:<lineno>:". As <tree-ish> is
almost always either a commit or a tag that points at a commit, the
early part of the output "<tree-ish>:<path>" can be used as the
name of the blob and given to "git show". When <tree-ish> is a
tree given in the extended SHA-1 syntax (e.g. "<commit>:", or
"<commit>:<dir>"), however, this results in a string that does not
name a blob (e.g. "<commit>::<path>" or "<commit>:<dir>:<path>").
"git grep" has been taught to be a bit more intelligent about these
cases and omit a colon (in the former case) or use slash (in the
latter case) to produce "<commit>:<path>" and
"<commit>:<dir>/<path>" that can be used as the name of a blob.
Expecting a reroll? Is this good enough with known limitations?

- 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.

"git tag/branch/for-each-ref" family of commands long allowed to
filter the refs by "--contains X" (show only the refs that are
descendants of X), "--merged X" (show only the refs that are

only the refs that are not descendants of X) has been added to

+ hash.h: move SHA-1 implementation selection into a header file
Our source code has used the SHA1_HEADER cpp macro after "#include"

* sk/dash-is-previous (2017-03-01) 5 commits
- revert.c: delegate handling of "-" shorthand to setup_revisions
- sha1_name.c: teach get_sha1_1 "-" shorthand for "@{-1}"
- revision.c: args starting with "-" might be a revision
- revision.c: swap if/else blocks
- revision.c: do not update argv with unknown option
A dash "-" can be written to mean "the branch that was previously
checked out" in more places.
Needs review.

+ setup_git_env: avoid blind fall-back to ".git"
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'.

+ 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.
Will cook in 'next'.
* 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.

* jk/auto-namelen-in-interpret-branch-name (2017-02-27) 1 commit
. interpret_branch_name(): handle auto-namelen for @{-1}
A small bug in the code that parses @{...} has been fixed.
This is now a part of jk/interpret-branch-name topic.
* jt/mark-tree-uninteresting-for-uninteresting-commit (2017-02-28) 3 commits
. upload-pack: compute blob reachability correctly
. revision: exclude trees/blobs given commit
. revision: unify {tree,blob}_objects in rev_info
The revision/object traversal machinery did not mark all tree and
blob objects that are contained in an uninteresting commit as
uninteresting, because that is quite costly. Instead, it only
marked those that are contained in an uninteresting boundary commit
as uninteresting.
Retracted.
