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.
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
--------------------------------------------------
[Graduated to "master"]
* bc/vcs-svn-cleanup (2017-08-20) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-22 at d8494b5d5b)
+ vcs-svn: rename repo functions to "svn_repo"
+ vcs-svn: remove unused prototypes
(this branch is used by bc/hash-algo and jn/vcs-svn-cleanup.)
Code clean-up.
* bw/submodule-config-cleanup (2017-08-03) 17 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-24 at e35d58c4c6)
+ submodule: remove gitmodules_config
+ unpack-trees: improve loading of .gitmodules
+ submodule-config: lazy-load a repository's .gitmodules file
+ submodule-config: move submodule-config functions to submodule-config.c
+ submodule-config: remove support for overlaying repository config
+ diff: stop allowing diff to have submodules configured in .git/config
+ submodule: remove submodule_config callback routine
+ unpack-trees: don't respect submodule.update
+ submodule: don't rely on overlayed config when setting diffopts
+ fetch: don't overlay config with submodule-config
+ submodule--helper: don't overlay config in update-clone
+ submodule--helper: don't overlay config in remote_submodule_branch
+ add, reset: ensure submodules can be added or reset
+ submodule: don't use submodule_from_name
+ t7411: check configuration parsing errors
+ Merge branch 'bc/object-id' into bw/submodule-config-cleanup
+ Merge branch 'bw/grep-recurse-submodules' into bw/submodule-config-cleanup
Code clean-up to avoid mixing values read from the .gitmodules file
and values read from the .git/config file.
So, after the recent discussion around submodule.<name>.update (and
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 ;-)
* jc/cutoff-config (2017-08-22) 6 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-24 at 2dcbf9ae04)
+ rerere: allow approxidate in gc.rerereResolved/gc.rerereUnresolved
+ rerere: represent time duration in timestamp_t internally
+ t4200: parameterize "rerere gc" custom expiry test
+ t4200: gather "rerere gc" together
+ t4200: make "rerere gc" test more robust
+ t4200: give us a clean slate after "rerere gc" tests
"[gc] rerereResolved = 5.days" used to be invalid, as the variable
is defined to take an integer counting the number of days. It now
is allowed.

+ trailer: put process_trailers() options into a struct
"git interpret-trailers" has been taught a "--parse" and a few
other options to make it easier for scripts to grab existing
trailer lines from a commit log message.

(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-23 at 16258266e2)
+ gitweb: add 'raw' blob_plain link in history overview
"gitweb" shows a link to visit the 'raw' contents of blbos in the
history overview page.
* jt/diff-color-move-fix (2017-08-16) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at 6ae3831c8c)
+ diff: define block by number of alphanumeric chars
+ diff: respect MIN_BLOCK_LENGTH for last block
+ diff: avoid redundantly clearing a flag
(this branch uses sb/diff-color-move.)
A handful of bugfixes and an improvement to "diff --color-moved".
* jt/doc-pack-objects-fix (2017-08-23) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-24 at 7e4c3c0c9f)
+ Doc: clarify that pack-objects makes packs, plural
Doc updates.
* jt/packmigrate (2017-08-23) 23 commits

* jt/stash-tests (2017-08-19) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-22 at 0b022697aa)
+ stash: add a test for stashing in a detached state
+ stash: add a test for when apply fails during stash branch
+ stash: add a test for stash create with no files
Test update to improve coverage for "git stash" operations.
* kw/write-index-reduce-alloc (2017-08-21) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-24 at 29f7daad85)
+ 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
optimized.
* mg/killed-merge (2017-08-23) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-24 at 5db37fc192)
+ 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.
* 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.
* pb/trailers-from-command-line (2017-08-14) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at b12342e49e)
+ interpret-trailers: fix documentation typo
+ interpret-trailers: add options for actions
+ trailers: introduce struct new_trailer_item
+ trailers: export action enums and corresponding lookup functions
"git interpret-trailers" learned to take the trailer specifications
from the command line that overrides the configured values.
* po/object-id (2017-08-20) 6 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-23 at 0faff383a8)
+ sha1_file: convert index_stream to struct object_id
+ sha1_file: convert hash_sha1_file_literally to struct object_id
+ sha1_file: convert index_fd to struct object_id
+ sha1_file: convert index_path to struct object_id
+ read-cache: convert to struct object_id
+ builtin/hash-object: convert to struct object_id
Conversion from uchar[20] to struct object_id continues.
* sb/diff-color-move (2017-06-30) 26 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-19 at a239d031bc)
+ diff: document the new --color-moved setting
+ diff.c: add dimming to moved line detection
+ diff.c: color moved lines differently, plain mode

+ diff.c: introduce emit_diff_symbol
+ diff.c: factor out diff_flush_patch_all_file_pairs
+ diff.c: move line ending check into emit_hunk_header
+ 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.
* 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.

* jk/drop-sha1-entry-pos (2017-08-25) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-25 at 7ef03bb281)

The codepath to call external process filter for smudge/clean
operation learned to show the progress meter.

* mm/send-email-cc-cruft (2017-08-24) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-25 at 65933523ab)
+ send-email: don't use Mail::Address, even if available
+ send-email: fix garbage removal after address
In addition to "cc: <a@xxxxxxxx> # cruft", "cc: a@xxxxxxxx # cruft"
was taught to "git send-email" as a valid way to tell it that it
needs to also send a carbon copy to <a@xxxxxxxx> in the trailer
section.

* nd/worktree-kill-parse-ref (2017-08-24) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-08-25 at a5da82b2ea)
+ branch: fix branch renaming not updating HEADs correctly
"git branch -M a b" while on a branch that is completely unrelated
to either branch a or branch b misbehaved when multiple worktree
was in use. This has been fixed.
Will merge to 'master'.
* pc/submodule-helper (2017-08-25) 4 commits
- submodule: port submodule subcommand 'status' from shell to C

- 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.

"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.

* mk/diff-delta-uint-may-be-shorter-than-ulong (2017-08-10) 1 commit
. 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.

The delta format used in the packfile cannot reference data at
offset larger than what can be expressed in 4-byte, but the
generator for the data failed to make sure the offset does not
overflow. This has been corrected.

"make style" runs git-clang-format to help developers by pointing
out coding style issues.
* sb/submodule-recursive-checkout-detach-head (2017-07-28) 2 commits
- 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.

- 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.

+ 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'.
