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.
As I am preparing to go offline next week for about a week, a
handful of topics have been merged to 'master' and 'next' is getting
thinner. There are a few topics of importance that are still only
on the mailing list archive and not in my tree that I'd like to
review them and help them get into a reasonable shape, but that
hasn't happened yet.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

* ah/doc-empty-string-is-false (2017-08-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at df47ffeffa)
+ doc: clarify "config --bool" behaviour with empty string
Doc update.
* as/grep-quiet-no-match-exit-code-fix (2017-08-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 362f88fb41)
+ git-grep: correct exit code with --quiet and -L
"git grep -L" and "git grep --quiet -L" reported different exit
codes; this has been corrected.
* cc/subprocess-handshake-missing-capabilities (2017-08-16) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at c512710fda)
+ sub-process: print the cmd when a capability is unsupported
When handshake with a subprocess filter notices that the process
asked for an unknown capability, Git did not report what program
the offending subprocess was running. This has been corrected.
We may want a follow-up fix to tighten the error checking, though.
* hv/t5526-andand-chain-fix (2017-08-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at fa95053653)

* jc/simplify-progress (2017-08-19) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-22 at 9077ff6912)
+ progress: simplify "delayed" progress API
The API to start showing progress meter after a short delay has
been simplified.
* jk/doc-the-this (2017-08-20) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-22 at 6625e50025)
+ doc: fix typo in sendemail.identity
Doc clean-up.
* jt/sha1-file-cleanup (2017-08-11) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 93f4c94578)

+ sha1_file: set whence in storage-specific info fn
(this branch is used by jt/packmigrate.)
Preparatory code clean-up.
* kd/stash-with-bash-4.4 (2017-08-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 79b2c4b052)
+ stash: prevent warning about null bytes in input
bash 4.4 or newer gave a warning on NUL byte in command
substitution done in "git stash"; this has been squelched.
* ks/prepare-commit-msg-sample-fix (2017-08-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at e75c30de64)
+ hook: use correct logical variable
An "oops" fix to a topic that is already in 'master'.
* kw/commit-keep-index-when-pre-commit-is-not-run (2017-08-16) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 2b5a25e5ae)
+ commit: skip discarding the index if there is no pre-commit hook
"git commit" used to discard the index and re-read from the filesystem
just in case the pre-commit hook has updated it in the middle; this
has been optimized out when we know we do not run the pre-commit hook.
* kw/rebase-progress (2017-08-14) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 1958f378dd)
+ rebase: turn on progress option by default for format-patch
+ format-patch: have progress option while generating patches
"git rebase", especially when it is run by mistake and ends up
trying to replay many changes, spent long time in silence. The
command has been taught to show progress report when it spends
long time preparing these many changes to replay (which would give
the user a chance to abort with ^C).
* lg/merge-signoff (2017-07-25) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at cb53d7b026)
+ merge: add a --signoff flag
"git merge" learned a "--signoff" option to add the Signed-off-by:
trailer with the committer's name.
* mg/format-ref-doc-fix (2017-08-18) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 6490525c54)
+ Documentation/git-for-each-ref: clarify peeling of tags for --format
+ Documentation: use proper wording for ref format strings
Doc fix.
* nm/stash-untracked (2017-08-11) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 70990d7eb3)
+ stash: clean untracked files before reset
"git stash -u" used the contents of the committed version of the
".gitignore" file to decide which paths are ignored, even when the
file has local changes. The command has been taught to instead use
the locally modified contents.
* rs/commit-h-single-parent-cleanup (2017-08-19) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-22 at 7db01c4035)
+ commit: remove unused inline function single_parent()
Code clean-up.
* rs/object-id (2017-08-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 0f7283cd19)
+ tree-walk: convert fill_tree_descriptor() to object_id
Conversion from uchar[20] to struct object_id continues.
* rs/t1002-do-not-use-sum (2017-08-15) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 15b2a5f21b)

Code clean-up.
* sb/submodule-parallel-update (2017-08-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at c023a834f0)
+ submodule.sh: remove unused variable
Code clean-up.
* tc/curl-with-backports (2017-08-11) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-22 at 06c21e1eb9)
+ http: use a feature check to enable GSSAPI delegation control
+ http: fix handling of missing CURLPROTO_*
Updates to the HTTP layer we made recently unconditionally used
features of libCurl without checking the existence of them, causing
compilation errors, which has been fixed. Also migrate the code to
check feature macros, not version numbers, to cope better with
libCurl that vendor ships with backported features.

* js/gitweb-raw-blob-link-in-history (2017-08-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-23 at 16258266e2)

"gitweb" shows a link to visit the 'raw' contents of blbos in the
history overview page.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jn/vcs-svn-cleanup (2017-08-23) 4 commits

* mh/ref-lock-entry (2017-08-23) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-24 at 67760267f4)
+ refs: retry acquiring reference locks for 100ms
The code to acquire a lock on a reference (e.g. while accepting a
push from a client) used to immediately fail when the reference is
already locked---now it waits for a very short while and retries,
which can make it succeed if the lock holder was holding it during
a read-only operation.

* sg/clone-refspec-from-command-line-config (2017-06-16) 2 commits
- Documentation/clone: document ignored configuration variables
- clone: respect additional configured fetch refspecs during initial fetch
(this branch is used by sg/remote-no-string-refspecs.)
"git clone -c var=val" is a way to set configuration variables in
the resulting repository, but it is more useful to also make these
variables take effect while the initial clone is happening,
e.g. these configuration variables could be fetch refspecs.
Waiting for a response.

"git archive" did not work well with pathspecs and the
export-ignore attribute.

+ read-cache: avoid allocating every ondisk entry when writing
+ read-cache: fix memory leak in do_write_index
+ perf: add test for writing the index
We used to spend more than necessary cycles allocating and freeing
piece of memory while writing each index entry out. This has been

* mg/killed-merge (2017-08-23) 4 commits

+ merge: save merge state earlier
+ merge: split write_merge_state in two
+ merge: clarify call chain
+ Documentation/git-merge: explain --continue
Killing "git merge --edit" before the editor returns control left
the repository in a state with MERGE_MSG but without MERGE_HEAD,
which incorrectly tells the subsequent "git commit" that there was
a squash merge in progress. This has been fixed.

* tb/apply-with-crlf (2017-08-19) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-22 at f92bf67061)
+ apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply
+ convert: add SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF
(this branch is tangled with jc/apply-with-crlf.)
"git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a
taken from a file with CRLF line endings to a file with CRLF line
endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git()
that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index
entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply"
is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all.
This has been fixed.

+ commit: allocate array using object_id size
+ commit: replace the raw buffer with strbuf in read_graft_line
+ sha1_file: fix definition of null_sha1
Conversion from uchar[20] to struct object_id continues; this is to
ensure that we do not assume sizeof(struct object_id) is the same
as the length of SHA-1 hash (or length of longest hash we support).

. diff-delta: fix encoding size that would not fit in "unsigned int"
The machinery to create xdelta used in pack files received the
sizes of the data in size_t, but lost the higher bits of them by
storing them in "unsigned int" during the computation, which is
fixed.

generator for the data failed to make sure the offset does not
overflow. This has been corrected.

- Documentation/checkout: clarify submodule HEADs to be detached
- recursive submodules: detach HEAD from new state
"git checkout --recursive" may overwrite and rewind the history of
the branch that happens to be checked out in submodule
repositories, which might not be desirable. Detach the HEAD but
still allow the recursive checkout to succeed in such a case.
Undecided.
This needs justification in a larger picture; it is unclear why
this is better than rejecting recursive checkout, for example.

its resolution "use submodule.<name>.active; "reset --hard" must
ignore the .update thing"), this is now good to go, I presume?
Please yell at me that I am clueless if that is not the case ;-)

Code cleanup.
Perhaps drop.

* jc/allow-lazy-cas (2017-07-06) 1 commit
- push: disable lazy --force-with-lease by default
Because "git push --force-with-lease[=<ref>]" that relies on the
stability of remote-tracking branches is unsafe when something
fetches into the repository behind user's back, it is now disabled
by default. A new configuration variable can be used to enable it
by users who know what they are doing. This would pave the way to
possibly turn `--force` into `--force-with-lease`.
Will discard.
Independent from disabling the feature by default, this stirred up
a discussion to replace the DWIM heuristics with a better one, which
deserves to be its own topic.

* ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all (2017-06-23) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-14 at 24db08a6e8)
+ pathspec: die on empty strings as pathspec
+ t0027: do not use an empty string as a pathspec element
The final step to make an empty string as a pathspec element
illegal. We started this by first deprecating and warning a
pathspec that has such an element in 2.11 (Nov 2016).
Hopefully we can merge this down to the 'master' by the end of the
year? A deprecation warning period that is about 1 year does not
sound too bad.
Will cook in 'next'.
As the draft RelNotes says, let's merge this to 'master' after
this release cycle.
* sd/branch-copy (2017-06-18) 3 commits
- branch: add a --copy (-c) option to go with --move (-m)
- branch: add test for -m renaming multiple config sections
- config: create a function to format section headers
"git branch" learned "-c/-C" to create and switch to a new branch
by copying an existing one.
I personally do not think "branch --copy master backup" while on
"master" that switches to "backup" is a good UI, and I *will* say
"I told you so" when users complain after we merge this down to
'master'.
* sb/diff-color-move (2017-06-30) 26 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at a239d031bc)

+ diff.c: readability fix
+ Merge branch 'sb/hashmap-customize-comparison' into sb/diff-color-move
(this branch is used by jt/diff-color-move-fix.)
"git diff" has been taught to optionally paint new lines that are
the same as deleted lines elsewhere differently from genuinely new
lines.
Will merge to 'master'.

"git gc" and friends when multiple worktrees are used off of a
single repository did not consider the index and per-worktree refs
of other worktrees as the root for reachability traversal, making
objects that are in use only in other worktrees to be subject to
garbage collection.
