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

[Graduated to "master"]
* ab/perl-python-attrs (2018-04-27) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at b440e9bbb9)
+ .gitattributes: add a diff driver for Python
+ .gitattributes: use the "perl" differ for Perl
+ .gitattributes: add *.pl extension for Perl
We learned that our source files with ".pl" and ".py" extensions
are Perl and Python files respectively and changes to them are
better viewed as such with appropriate diff drivers.
* ah/misc-doc-updates (2018-05-06) 7 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at e2e3b68a66)
+ doc: normalize [--options] to [options] in git-diff
+ doc: add note about shell quoting to revision.txt
+ git-svn: remove ''--add-author-from' for 'commit-diff'
+ doc: add '-d' and '-o' for 'git push'
+ doc: clarify ignore rules for git ls-files
+ doc: align 'diff --no-index' in text and synopsis
+ doc: improve formatting in githooks.txt
Misc doc fixes.
* ao/config-api-doc (2018-05-11) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-22 at a17d6dda92)
+ doc: fix config API documentation about config_with_options
Doc update.
* bc/asciidoctor-tab-width (2018-05-07) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at be2a42c473)
+ Documentation: render revisions correctly under Asciidoctor
+ Documentation: use 8-space tabs with Asciidoctor
Asciidoctor gives a reasonable imitation for AsciiDoc, but does not
render illustration in a literal block correctly when indented with
HT by default. The problem is fixed by forcing 8-space tabs.
* bc/format-patch-cover-no-attach (2018-05-02) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at fa1ffeb3fe)
+ format-patch: make cover letters always text/plain
"git format-patch --cover --attach" created a broken MIME multipart
message for the cover letter, which has been fixed by keeping the
cover letter as plain text file.
* bc/mailmap-self (2018-05-08) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at a009c64bd2)

Code simplification.
* bw/server-options (2018-04-24) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at a18ce56f3c)
+ fetch: send server options when using protocol v2
+ ls-remote: send server options when using protocol v2
+ serve: introduce the server-option capability
+ Merge branch 'bw/protocol-v2' into HEAD
The transport protocol v2 is getting updated further.

Performance test updates.
* ds/lazy-load-trees (2018-05-02) 6 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-02 at d54016d9e3)
+ coccinelle: avoid wrong transformation suggestions from commit.cocci
(merged to 'next' on 2018-04-25 at b90813f421)
+ commit-graph: lazy-load trees for commits
+ treewide: replace maybe_tree with accessor methods
+ commit: create get_commit_tree() method
+ treewide: rename tree to maybe_tree
+ Merge branch 'bw/c-plus-plus' into ds/lazy-load-trees
(this branch is used by ds/commit-graph-lockfile-fix and ds/generation-numbers.)
The code has been taught to use the duplicated information stored
in the commit-graph file to learn the tree object name for a commit
to avoid opening and parsing the commit object when it makes sense
to do so.
* em/status-rename-config (2018-05-06) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at 33c1cc093c)
+ wt-status: use settings from git_diff_ui_config
(this branch is used by bp/status-rename-config.)
"git status" learned to pay attention to UI related diff
configuration variables such as diff.renames.
* en/git-debugger (2018-04-25) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at 73369cd1e5)

+ directory rename detection: testcases checking which side did the rename
+ directory rename detection: files/directories in the way of some renames
+ directory rename detection: partially renamed directory testcase/discussion
+ directory rename detection: testcases to avoid taking detection too far
+ directory rename detection: directory splitting testcases
+ directory rename detection: basic testcases
(this branch is used by bp/merge-rename-config and ma/unpack-trees-free-msgs.)
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'. A bug causing dirty files involved in a rename
to be overwritten during merge has also been fixed as part of this
work. Incidentally, this also avoids updating a file in the
working tree after a (non-trivial) merge whose result matches what
our side originally had.
* en/unpack-trees-split-index-fix (2018-05-02) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at 1adff065b2)
+ unpack_trees: fix breakage when o->src_index != o->dst_index
The split-index feature had a long-standing and dormant bug in
certain use of the in-core merge machinery, which has been fixed.

* fg/completion-external (2018-05-07) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at 5d83f92caf)
+ completion: load completion file for external subcommand
The command line completion mechanism (in contrib/) learned to load
custom completion file for "git $command" where $command is a
custom "git-$command" that the end user has on the $PATH when using
newer version of bash.

Doc update.
* js/deprecate-grafts (2018-04-30) 12 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at 1d7b31d179)
+ Remove obsolete script to convert grafts to replace refs
+ technical/shallow: describe why shallow cannot use replace refs
+ technical/shallow: stop referring to grafts
+ filter-branch: stop suggesting to use grafts
+ Deprecate support for .git/info/grafts
+ Add a test for `git replace --convert-graft-file`
+ replace: introduce --convert-graft-file
+ replace: prepare create_graft() for converting graft files wholesale
+ replace: "libify" create_graft() and callees
+ replace: avoid using die() to indicate a bug
+ commit: Let the callback of for_each_mergetag return on error
+ argv_array: offer to split a string by whitespace
The functionality of "$GIT_DIR/info/grafts" has been superseded by
the "refs/replace/" mechanism for some time now, but the internal
code had support for it in many places, which has been cleaned up
in order to drop support of the "grafts" mechanism.
* js/no-pager-shorthand (2018-05-04) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at 10e6031dd1)
+ git: add -P as a short option for --no-pager
"git --no-pager cmd" did not have short-and-sweet single letter
option. Now it does.
* js/rebase-i-clean-msg-after-fixup-continue (2018-05-02) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at 7e684c153d)
+ rebase --skip: clean up commit message after a failed fixup/squash
+ sequencer: always commit without editing when asked for
+ rebase -i: Handle "combination of <n> commits" with GETTEXT_POISON
+ rebase -i: demonstrate bugs with fixup!/squash! commit messages
"git rebase -i" sometimes left intermediate "# This is a
combination of N commits" message meant for the human consumption
inside an editor in the final result in certain corner cases, which
has been fixed.
* js/rebase-recreate-merge (2018-04-26) 17 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at f1aeea2879)

+ sequencer: avoid using errno clobbered by rollback_lock_file()
(this branch is used by js/sequencer-and-root-commits.)
"git rebase" learned "--rebase-merges" to transplant the whole
topology of commit graph elsewhere.
* js/test-unset-prereq (2018-04-30) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at 3aecbf25a3)

(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at 0599eb3ec9)
+ doc: keep first level section header in upper case
Doc formatting fix.
* nd/pack-format-doc (2018-05-13) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-22 at ff2c48f356)
+ pack-format.txt: more details on pack file format
Doc update.
* nd/pack-objects-pack-struct (2018-04-16) 15 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at 171459475d)

+ pack-objects: use bitfield for object_entry::depth
+ pack-objects: use bitfield for object_entry::dfs_state
+ pack-objects: turn type and in_pack_type to bitfields
+ pack-objects: a bit of document about struct object_entry
+ read-cache.c: make $GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX boolean
"git pack-objects" needs to allocate tons of "struct object_entry"
while doing its work, and shrinking its size helps the performance
quite a bit.

Doc update.
* nd/repack-keep-pack (2018-04-16) 7 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at ab906be358)
+ pack-objects: show some progress when counting kept objects
+ gc --auto: exclude base pack if not enough mem to "repack -ad"
+ gc: handle a corner case in gc.bigPackThreshold
+ gc: add gc.bigPackThreshold config
+ gc: add --keep-largest-pack option
+ repack: add --keep-pack option
+ t7700: have closing quote of a test at the beginning of line
"git gc" in a large repository takes a lot of time as it considers
to repack all objects into one pack by default. The command has
been taught to pretend as if the largest existing packfile is
marked with ".keep" so that it is left untouched while objects in
other packs and loose ones are repacked.

* nd/term-columns (2018-05-13) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-22 at e50b727a48)
+ column: fix off-by-one default width
+ pager: set COLUMNS to term_columns()
The code did not propagate the terminal width to subprocesses via
COLUMNS environment variable, which it now does. This caused
trouble to "git column" helper subprocess when "git tag --column=row"
tried to list the existing tags on a display with non-default width.
* sb/object-store-replace (2018-05-21) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-21 at 4fb28f7b16)

(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at 41bbedcc81)
+ replace-object.c: remove the_repository from prepare_replace_object
+ object.c: free replace map in raw_object_store_clear
Hotfix.
* sb/oid-object-info (2018-04-26) 9 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at f3c08f298e)
+ cache.h: allow oid_object_info to handle arbitrary repositories

+ packfile: add repository argument to retry_bad_packed_offset
+ cache.h: add repository argument to oid_object_info
+ cache.h: add repository argument to oid_object_info_extended
(this branch is used by sb/object-store-alloc and sb/object-store-grafts.)
The codepath around object-info API has been taught to take the
repository object (which in turn tells the API which object store
the objects are to be located).
* sg/t5310-jgit-bitmap-test (2018-05-11) 1 commit

Test update.
* tb/test-apfs-utf8-normalization (2018-05-02) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-16 at feabe72b42)
+ test: correct detection of UTF8_NFD_TO_NFC for APFS
A test to see if the filesystem normalizes UTF-8 filename has been
updated to check what we need to know in a more direct way, i.e. a
path created in NFC form can be accessed with NFD form (or vice
versa) to cope with APFS as well as HFS.
* tg/worktree-add-existing-branch (2018-04-30) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-08 at 8b76505192)
+ worktree: teach "add" to check out existing branches

+ worktree: improve message when creating a new worktree
+ worktree: remove extra members from struct add_opts
"git worktree add" learned to check out an existing branch.

[New Topics]
* bw/ref-prefix-for-configured-refspec (2018-05-18) 2 commits
- fetch: generate ref-prefixes when using a configured refspec
- refspec: consolidate ref-prefix generation logic
(this branch uses bw/refspec-api.)
"git fetch $there $refspec" that talks over protocol v2 can take
advantage of server-side ref filtering; the code has been extended
so that this mechanism triggers also when fetching with configured
refspec.
Will merge to 'next'.
* jk/config-blob-sans-repo (2018-05-21) 1 commit

proper plumbing like rev-parse and update-ref, to avoid breakage
once we start using different ref backends.

* jm/cache-entry-from-mem-pool (2018-05-02) 5 commits
- block alloc: add validations around cache_entry lifecyle
- block alloc: allocate cache entries from mem_pool
- mem-pool: fill out functionality
- block alloc: add lifecycle APIs for cache_entry structs
- read-cache: teach refresh_cache_entry() to take istate
For a large tree, the index needs to hold many cache entries
allocated on heap. These cache entries are now allocated out of a
dedicated memory pool to amortize malloc(3) overhead.
Needs review.
Is the "caller always knows which pool an entry came from and calls
the right kind of free" a feasible approach?
Oh, another thing, there is "lifecyle" typo in the title.

- fetch tests: correct a comment "remove it" -> "remove them"
- push doc: correct lies about how push refspecs work
- push tests: assert re-pushing annotated tags
- push tests: add more testing for forced tag pushing
- push tests: fix logic error in "push" test assertion
- push tests: remove redundant 'git push' invocation
Expecting a reboot of the discussion to take it to some conclusion

individual added/removed lines to be used in the operation, instead
of accepting or rejecting a whole hunk.

before too long.
* hn/bisect-first-parent (2018-04-21) 1 commit

- http-backend: respect CONTENT_LENGTH as specified by rfc3875
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.
Expecting a reroll.
Suggested fixes to be used when rerolling is queued, but I'd
prefer _not_ squashing them myself.
Also, it may be too complex solution for the problem.

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).

constants in the test. The latter kind of tests have been updated
to test the moral equivalent of the original without hardcoding the
actual object names.

more dedicated "commit-slab" mechanism and the field is eliminated.

+ apply: add --intent-to-add
+ diff: turn --ita-invisible-in-index on by default
"git diff" compares the index and the working tree. For paths
added with intent-to-add bit, the command shows the full contents
of them as added, but the paths themselves were not marked as new
files. They are now shown as new by default.
"git apply" learned the "--intent-to-add" option so that an
otherwise working-tree-only application of a patch will add new
paths to the index marked with the "intent-to-add" bit.

- merge-recursive: i18n submodule merge output and respect verbosity
- submodule.c: move submodule merging to merge-recursive.c
By code restructuring of submodule merge in merge-recursive,
informational messages from the codepath are now given using the
same mechanism as other output, and honor the merge.verbosity
configuration. The code also learned to give a few new messages
when a submodule three-way merge resolves cleanly when one side
records a descendant of the commit chosen by the other side.

(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-23 at 698e6707d7)
+ git-submodule.sh: try harder to fetch a submodule
"git submodule update" attempts two different kinds of "git fetch"
against the upstream repository to grab a commit bound at the
submodule's path, but it incorrectly gave up if the first kind
(i.e. a normal fetch) failed, making the second "last resort" one
(i.e. fetching an exact commit object by object name) ineffective.
This has been corrected.

- commit-graph: always load commit-graph information
- commit: use generations in paint_down_to_common()
- commit-graph: compute generation numbers
- commit: add generation number to struct commit
- ref-filter: fix outdated comment on in_commit_list
(this branch is used by ds/commit-graph-lockfile-fix.)
A recently added "commit-graph" datafile has learned to store
pre-computed generation numbers to speed up the decisions to stop
history traversal.
Will merge to 'next'.

* sb/blame-color (2018-04-24) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-05-23 at 2e9c0daf0b)
+ builtin/blame: add new coloring scheme config
+ builtin/blame: highlight recently changed lines
+ builtin/blame: dim uninteresting metadata lines
"git blame" learns to unhighlight uninteresting metadata from the
originating commit on lines that are the same as the previous one,
and also paint lines in different colors depending on the age of
the commit.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jk/branch-l-0-deprecation (2018-03-26) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2018-04-11 at 9b2b0305dd)
+ branch: deprecate "-l" option
+ t: switch "branch -l" to "branch --create-reflog"
+ t3200: unset core.logallrefupdates when testing reflog creation
(this branch is used by jk/branch-l-1-removal and jk/branch-l-2-reincarnation.)
The "-l" option in "git branch -l" is an unfortunate short-hand for
"--create-reflog", but many users, both old and new, somehow expect
it to be something else, perhaps "--list". This step deprecates
the short-hand and warns about the future removal of the it when it
is used.
Will cook in 'next'.
Perhaps merge to 'master' immediately after 2.18 release?
* jk/branch-l-1-removal (2018-03-26) 1 commit
- branch: drop deprecated "-l" option
(this branch is used by jk/branch-l-2-reincarnation; uses jk/branch-l-0-deprecation.)
Following the "git branch -l" deprecation, the short-hand is removed.
Will keep in 'pu'.
* jk/branch-l-2-reincarnation (2018-03-26) 1 commit
- branch: make "-l" a synonym for "--list"
(this branch uses jk/branch-l-0-deprecation and jk/branch-l-1-removal.)
Following the "git branch -l" removal, "-l" is resurrected as a
short-hand for "--list".
Will keep in 'pu'.

* js/runtime-prefix-windows (2018-03-27) 5 commits
. mingw/msvc: use the new-style RUNTIME_PREFIX helper
. exec_cmd: provide a new-style RUNTIME_PREFIX helper for Windows
. exec_cmd: RUNTIME_PREFIX on some POSIX systems
. Makefile: add Perl runtime prefix support
. Makefile: generate Perl header from template file
The Windows port was the first that allowed Git to be installed
anywhere by having its components refer to each other with relative
pathnames. The recent dj/runtime-prefix topic extends the idea to
other platforms, and its approach has been adopted back in the
Windows port.
Ejected, as the parent topic dj/runtime-prefix covers Windows now.
* bp/fsexcludes (2018-04-16) 2 commits
. fsmonitor: switch to use new fsexcludes logic and remove unused untracked cache based logic
. fsexcludes: add a programmatic way to exclude files from git's working directory traversal logic
Can we have a few lines summary here, just like we have for other
topic ;-) I personally take the overlong title of these commits as
a sign that they can further be simplified and cleaned up by
splitting, focusing the scope, etc.
Retracted.
