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.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

* ar/unconfuse-three-dots (2017-12-06) 8 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at 33bd0b67c0)
+ t2020: test variations that matter
+ t4013: test new output from diff --abbrev --raw
+ diff: diff_aligned_abbrev: remove ellipsis after abbreviated SHA-1 value
+ t4013: prepare for upcoming "diff --raw --abbrev" output format change
+ checkout: describe_detached_head: remove ellipsis after committish
+ print_sha1_ellipsis: introduce helper
+ Documentation: user-manual: limit usage of ellipsis
+ Documentation: revisions: fix typo: "three dot" ---> "three-dot" (in line with "two-dot").
Ancient part of codebase still shows dots after an abbreviated
object name just to show that it is not a full object name, but
these ellipses are confusing to people who newly discovered Git
who are used to seeing abbreviated object names and find them
confusing with the range syntax.
* bw/pathspec-match-submodule-boundary (2017-12-05) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at e256d292a4)
+ pathspec: only match across submodule boundaries when requested
An v2.12-era regression in pathspec match logic, which made it look
into submodule tree even when it is not desired, has been fixed.
* bw/submodule-config-cleanup (2017-12-06) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at c952bf1b84)
+ diff-tree: read the index so attribute checks work in bare repositories
Recent update to the submodule configuration code broke "diff-tree"
by accidentally stopping to read from the index upfront.
* en/merge-recursive-icase-removal (2017-11-27) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at 85c6538a2a)
+ merge-recursive: ignore_case shouldn't reject intentional removals
The code internal to the recursive merge strategy was not fully
prepared to see a path that is renamed to try overwriting another
path that is only different in case on case insensitive systems.
This does not matter in the current code, but will start to matter
once the rename detection logic starts taking hints from nearby
paths moving to some directory and moves a new path along with them.
* en/rename-progress (2017-12-02) 5 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-04 at 49b39d2297)
+ diffcore-rename: make diff-tree -l0 mean -l<large>
(merged to 'next' on 2017-11-20 at 77a2e0ddd9)
+ sequencer: show rename progress during cherry picks
+ diff: remove silent clamp of renameLimit
+ progress: fix progress meters when dealing with lots of work
+ sequencer: warn when internal merge may be suboptimal due to renameLimit
Historically, the diff machinery for rename detection had a
hardcoded limit of 32k paths; this is being lifted to allow users
trade cycles with a (possibly) easier to read result.
* gk/tracing-optimization (2017-12-06) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at d6bfac03ad)
+ trace: improve performance while category is disabled
+ trace: remove trace key normalization
The tracing infrastructure has been optimized for cases where no
tracing is requested.
* jt/diff-anchored-patience (2017-11-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at 5f4843d7a0)
+ diff: support anchoring line(s)
"git diff" learned a variant of the "--patience" algorithm, to
which the user can specify which 'unique' line to be used as
anchoring points.
* ls/editor-waiting-message (2017-12-07) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at 494b5b41e3)
+ launch_editor(): indicate that Git waits for user input
+ refactor "dumb" terminal determination
Git shows a message to tell the user that it is waiting for the
user to finish editing when spawning an editor, in case the editor
opens to a hidden window or somewhere obscure and the user gets
lost.
* ls/git-gui-no-double-utf8-author-name (2017-12-05) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at be577d6e1b)
+ Merge branch 'ls/no-double-utf8-author-name' of ../git-gui into ls/git-gui-no-double-utf8-author-name
+ git-gui: prevent double UTF-8 conversion
Amending commits in git-gui broke the author name that is non-ascii
due to incorrect enconding conversion.

* tg/worktree-create-tracking (2017-12-06) 6 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-13 at 830b68c660)
+ add worktree.guessRemote config option
+ worktree: add --guess-remote flag to add subcommand
+ worktree: make add <path> <branch> dwim
+ worktree: add --[no-]track option to the add subcommand
+ worktree: add can be created from any commit-ish
+ checkout: factor out functions to new lib file
The way "git worktree add" determines what branch to create from
where and checkout in the new worktree has been updated a bit.

* jc/merge-symlink-ours-theirs (2017-09-26) 1 commit
- merge: teach -Xours/-Xtheirs to symbolic link merge
"git merge -Xours/-Xtheirs" learned to use our/their version when
resolving a conflicting updates to a symbolic link.
Needs review.
* mg/merge-base-fork-point (2017-09-17) 3 commits
- merge-base: find fork-point outside partial reflog
- merge-base: return fork-point outside reflog
- t6010: test actual test output
"merge-base --fork-point $branch $commit" is used to guess on which
commit among the commits that were once at the tip of the $branch the
$commit was built on top of, and it learns these historical tips from
the reflog of the $branch. When the true fork-point is lost due to
pruning of old reflog entries, the command does not give any output,
because it has no way to guess correctly and does not want to mislead
the user with a wrong guess.
The command has been updated to give the best but not known to be
correct guess, based on a hope that a merge-base between $commit and a
virtual merge across all the reflog entries that still are available
for $branch may still be a closer to the true fork-point than the
merge-base between $commit and the current tip of the $branch.
This may have to be offered by an additional option, to allow the
users that are prepared to see a potentially incorrect guess to opt
into the feature, without affecting the current callers that may not
be prepared to accept a guess that is not known to be correct.
What's the doneness of this one?

. zlib.c: use size_t for size
The wrapper to call into zlib followed our long tradition to use
"unsigned long" for sizes of regions in memory, which have been
updated to use "size_t".
Needs resurrecting by making sure the fix is good and still applies
(or adjusted to today's codebase).
* mg/status-in-progress-info (2017-05-10) 2 commits

- travis-ci: avoid new tcl/tk build requirement
- Makefile: check that tcl/tk is installed
A first-time builder of Git may have installed neither tclsh nor
msgfmt, in which case git-gui and gitk part will fail and break the
build. As a workaround, refuse to run a build when tclsh is not
installed and NO_TCLTK is not set.
Undecided.
I still feel that requring tclsh to be installed, with or without

The http-backend (used for smart-http transport) used to slurp the
whole input until EOF, without paying attention to CONTENT_LENGTH
that is supplied in the environment and instead expecting the Web
server to close the input stream. This has been fixed.

Rename detection logic in "diff" family that is used in "merge" has
learned to guess when all of x/a, x/b and x/c have moved to z/a,
z/b and z/c, it is likely that x/d added in the meantime would also
want to move to z/d by taking the hint that the entire directory
'x' moved to 'z'.

+ sequencer: improve config handling
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-06 at a4212f7ebd)
+ t3512/t3513: remove KNOWN_FAILURE_CHERRY_PICK_SEES_EMPTY_COMMIT=1
+ sequencer: try to commit without forking 'git commit'
+ sequencer: load commit related config
+ sequencer: simplify adding Signed-off-by: trailer
+ commit: move print_commit_summary() to libgit
+ commit: move post-rewrite code to libgit
+ Add a function to update HEAD after creating a commit
+ commit: move empty message checks to libgit
+ t3404: check intermediate squash messages
The sequencer infrastructure is shared across "git cherry-pick",
"git rebase -i", etc., and has always spawned "git commit" when it
needs to create a commit. It has been taught to do so internally,
when able, by reusing the codepath "git commit" itself uses, which
gives performance boost for a few tens of percents in some sample
scenarios.

* dj/runtime-prefix (2017-12-05) 4 commits
. exec_cmd: RUNTIME_PREFIX on some POSIX systems
. Makefile: add Perl runtime prefix support
. Makefile: add support for "perllibdir"
. Makefile: generate Perl header from template file
A build-time option has been added to allow Git to be told to refer
to its associated files relative to the main binary, in the same
way that has been possible on Windows for quite some time, for
Linux, BSDs and Darwin.
Tentatively kicked out of 'next' to see how well another topic
ab/simplify-perl-makefile that heavily conflicts with this fares.
* jh/object-filtering (2017-12-05) 9 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2017-12-05 at 3a56b51085)
+ rev-list: support --no-filter argument
+ list-objects-filter-options: support --no-filter
+ list-objects-filter-options: fix 'keword' typo in comment
(merged to 'next' on 2017-11-27 at e5008c3b28)
+ pack-objects: add list-objects filtering
+ rev-list: add list-objects filtering support
+ list-objects: filter objects in traverse_commit_list
+ oidset: add iterator methods to oidset
+ oidmap: add oidmap iterator methods
+ dir: allow exclusions from blob in addition to file
(this branch is used by jh/fsck-promisors and jh/partial-clone.)
In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the object
walking machinery has been taught a way to tell it to "filter" some
objects from enumeration.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jh/fsck-promisors (2017-12-08) 10 commits
- gc: do not repack promisor packfiles
- rev-list: support termination at promisor objects
- sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objects
- introduce fetch-object: fetch one promisor object
- index-pack: refactor writing of .keep files
- fsck: support promisor objects as CLI argument
- fsck: support referenced promisor objects
- fsck: support refs pointing to promisor objects
- fsck: introduce partialclone extension
- extension.partialclone: introduce partial clone extension
(this branch is used by jh/partial-clone; uses jh/object-filtering.)
In preparation for implementing narrow/partial clone, the machinery
for checking object connectivity used by gc and fsck has been
taught that a missing object is OK when it is referenced by a
packfile specially marked as coming from trusted repository that
promises to make them available on-demand and lazily.
* jh/partial-clone (2017-12-08) 13 commits
- t5616: test bulk prefetch after partial fetch
- fetch: inherit filter-spec from partial clone
- t5616: end-to-end tests for partial clone
- fetch-pack: restore save_commit_buffer after use
- unpack-trees: batch fetching of missing blobs
- clone: partial clone
- partial-clone: define partial clone settings in config
- fetch: support filters
- fetch: refactor calculation of remote list
- fetch-pack: test support excluding large blobs
- fetch-pack: add --no-filter
- fetch-pack, index-pack, transport: partial clone
- upload-pack: add object filtering for partial clone
(this branch uses jh/fsck-promisors and jh/object-filtering.)
The machinery to clone & fetch, which in turn involves packing and
unpacking objects, have been told how to omit certain objects using
the filtering mechanism introduced by the jh/object-filtering
topic, and also mark the resulting pack as a promisor pack to
tolerate missing objects, taking advantage of the mechanism
introduced by the jh/fsck-promisors topic.
* sb/describe-blob (2017-12-19) 7 commits
- builtin/describe.c: describe a blob
- builtin/describe.c: factor out describe_commit
- builtin/describe.c: print debug statements earlier
- builtin/describe.c: rename `oid` to avoid variable shadowing
- revision.h: introduce blob/tree walking in order of the commits
- list-objects.c: factor out traverse_trees_and_blobs
- t6120: fix typo in test name
"git describe" was taught to dig trees deeper to find a
<commit-ish>:<path> that refers to a given blob object.
Will merge to 'next'.
* pb/bisect-helper-2 (2017-10-28) 8 commits
- t6030: make various test to pass GETTEXT_POISON tests
- bisect--helper: `bisect_start` shell function partially in C
- bisect--helper: `get_terms` & `bisect_terms` shell function in C
- bisect--helper: `bisect_next_check` shell function in C
- bisect--helper: `check_and_set_terms` shell function in C
- wrapper: move is_empty_file() and rename it as is_empty_or_missing_file()
- bisect--helper: `bisect_write` shell function in C
- bisect--helper: `bisect_reset` shell function in C
Expecting a reroll.

* ot/mru-on-list (2017-10-01) 1 commit
- mru: use double-linked list from list.h
The first step to getting rid of mru API and using the
doubly-linked list API directly instead.
Is there any remaining issues on this one?
* jm/svn-pushmergeinfo-fix (2017-09-17) 1 commit
- git-svn: fix svn.pushmergeinfo handling of svn+ssh usernames.
"git svn dcommit" did not take into account the fact that a
svn+ssh:// URL with a username@ (typically used for pushing) refers
to the same SVN repository without the username@ and failed when
svn.pushmergeinfo option is set.
Needs a test, perhaps as a follow-up patch.
Will merge to 'next'.
