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.
A handful more topics have been merged to 'master' and 'next'
respectively. I have been hoping to keep this cycle short compared
to other recent cycles but there are a few smallish changes that we
should have in the upcoming release but are still not in 'next'. We
will see what happens.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

[Graduated to "master"]
* ab/commit-graph-write-optim (2019-01-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 17c894dfec)
+ commit-graph write: use pack order when finding commits
(this branch is used by ab/commit-graph-write-progress and ds/commit-graph-format-v2.)
The codepath to write out commit-graph has been optimized by
following the usual pattern of visiting objects in in-pack order.
* ab/commit-graph-write-progress (2019-01-23) 9 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at e086b1cba6)
+ commit-graph write: emit a percentage for all progress
+ commit-graph write: add itermediate progress
+ commit-graph write: remove empty line for readability
+ commit-graph write: add more descriptive progress output
+ commit-graph write: show progress for object search
+ commit-graph write: more descriptive "writing out" output
+ commit-graph write: add "Writing out" progress output
+ commit-graph: don't call write_graph_chunk_extra_edges() unnecessarily
+ commit-graph: rename "large edges" to "extra edges"
(this branch is used by ds/commit-graph-format-v2; uses ab/commit-graph-write-optim.)
The codepath to show progress meter while writing out commit-graph
file has been improved.
* az/instaweb-py3-http-server (2019-01-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 82f06b6774)
+ git-instaweb: add Python builtin http.server support
"git instaweb" learned to drive http.server that comes with
"batteries included" Python installation (both Python2 & 3).
* bp/checkout-new-branch-optim (2019-01-23) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 89d690634d)
+ checkout: fix regression in checkout -b on intitial checkout
+ checkout: add test demonstrating regression with checkout -b on initial commit
"git checkout -b <new> [HEAD]" to create a new branch from the
current commit and check it out ought to be a no-op in the index
and the working tree in normal cases, but there are corner cases
that do require updates to the index and the working tree. Running
it immediately after "git clone --no-checkout" is one of these
cases that an earlier optimization kicked in incorrectly, which has
been fixed.
* cc/test-ref-store-typofix (2019-01-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 0cd264f864)
+ helper/test-ref-store: fix "new-sha1" vs "old-sha1" typo
An obvious typo in an assertion error message has been fixed.

(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 5b520a6fd3)
+ doc: tidy asciidoc style
Doc typo/stylo fixes.
* jk/add-ignore-errors-bit-assignment-fix (2019-01-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at a4ac7ccd4f)
+ add: use separate ADD_CACHE_RENORMALIZE flag
"git add --ignore-errors" did not work as advertised and instead
worked as an unintended synonym for "git add --renormalize", which
has been fixed.
* jk/attr-macro-fix (2019-01-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 740df172e1)
+ attr: do not mark queried macros as unset
Asking "git check-attr" about a macro (e.g. "binary") on a specific
path did not work correctly, even though "git check-attr -a" listed
such a macro correctly. This has been corrected.
* jk/diff-cc-stat-fixes (2019-01-24) 6 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 8bd04f1749)
+ combine-diff: treat --dirstat like --stat
+ combine-diff: treat --summary like --stat
+ combine-diff: treat --shortstat like --stat
+ combine-diff: factor out stat-format mask
+ diff: clear emitted_symbols flag after use
+ t4006: resurrect commented-out tests
"git diff --color-moved --cc --stat -p" did not work well due to
funny interaction between a bug in color-moved and the rest, which
has been fixed.
* js/abspath-part-inside-repo (2019-01-18) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at ac642158ec)
+ abspath_part_inside_repo: respect core.ignoreCase
On a case-insensitive filesystem, we failed to compare the part of
the path that is above the worktree directory in an absolute
pathname, which has been corrected.
* js/commit-graph-chunk-table-fix (2019-01-15) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 65ea01d4f2)
+ Makefile: correct example fuzz build
+ commit-graph: fix buffer read-overflow
+ commit-graph, fuzz: add fuzzer for commit-graph
The codepath to read from the commit-graph file attempted to read
past the end of it when the file's table-of-contents was corrupt.
* js/filter-options-should-use-plain-int (2019-01-15) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-18 at 6714547e6d)
+ filter-options: expand scaled numbers
(this branch uses md/list-objects-filter-by-depth and sb/more-repo-in-api; is tangled with jt/get-reference-with-commit-graph.)
Update the protocol message specification to allow only the limited
use of scaled quantities. This is ensure potential compatibility
issues will not go out of hand.
* js/mingw-unc-path-w-backslashes (2019-01-18) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 3adc177c1e)
+ mingw: special-case arguments to `sh`
+ mingw (t5580): document bug when cloning from backslashed UNC paths
In Git for Windows, "git clone \\server\share\path" etc. that uses
UNC paths from command line had bad interaction with its shell
emulation.
* js/t6042-timing-fix (2019-01-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 9543c96249)

Test update.
* js/test-git-installed (2019-01-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at bab6eabb20)
+ tests: explicitly use `test-tool.exe` on Windows
Test fix for Windows.
* jt/fetch-v2-sideband (2019-01-17) 5 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at c8c6f11f77)
+ tests: define GIT_TEST_SIDEBAND_ALL
+ {fetch,upload}-pack: sideband v2 fetch response
+ sideband: reverse its dependency on pkt-line
+ pkt-line: introduce struct packet_writer
+ Merge branch 'ms/packet-err-check' into jt/fetch-v2-sideband
(this branch uses ms/packet-err-check.)
"git fetch" and "git upload-pack" learned to send all exchange over
the sideband channel while talking the v2 protocol.
* jt/get-reference-with-commit-graph (2018-12-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-18 at bfc4eb9411)
+ revision: use commit graph in get_reference()
(this branch uses sb/more-repo-in-api; is tangled with js/filter-options-should-use-plain-int and md/list-objects-filter-by-depth.)
Micro-optimize the code that prepares commit objects to be walked
by "git rev-list" when the commit-graph is available.
* jt/namespaced-ls-refs-fix (2019-01-18) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 049530f499)
+ ls-refs: filter refs using namespace-stripped name
Fix namespace support in protocol v2.
* ld/git-p4-shelve-update-fix (2019-01-18) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 02e8752ec8)
+ git-p4: handle update of moved/copied files when updating a shelve
+ git-p4: add failing test for shelved CL update involving move/copy
"git p4" failed to update a shelved change when there were moved
files, which has been corrected.
* md/list-objects-filter-by-depth (2019-01-15) 4 commits
+ tree:<depth>: skip some trees even when collecting omits
+ list-objects-filter: teach tree:# how to handle >0
+ Merge branch 'nd/the-index' into md/list-objects-filter-by-depth
+ Merge branch 'sb/more-repo-in-api' into md/list-objects-filter-by-depth
(this branch is used by js/filter-options-should-use-plain-int; uses sb/more-repo-in-api; is tangled with jt/get-reference-with-commit-graph.)
* ms/packet-err-check (2019-01-02) 2 commits
+ pack-protocol.txt: accept error packets in any context
+ Use packet_reader instead of packet_read_line
(this branch is used by jt/fetch-v2-sideband.)
Error checking of data sent over the pack-protocol has been
revamped so that error packets are always diagnosed properly.
* nd/fetch-compact-update (2019-01-27) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at b78e8841b0)

+ pack-objects: merge read_lock and lock in packing_data struct
+ pack-objects: move read mutex to packing_data struct
"git pack-objects" incorrectly used uninitialized mutex, which has
been corrected.
* pw/no-editor-in-rebase-i-implicit (2019-01-28) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 9d06993725)
+ implicit interactive rebase: don't run sequence editor
When GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR is set, the command was incorrectly
started when modes of "git rebase" that implicitly uses the
machinery for the interactive rebase are run, which has been
corrected.
* sb/more-repo-in-api (2018-12-28) 23 commits
+ t/helper/test-repository: celebrate independence from the_repository
+ path.h: make REPO_GIT_PATH_FUNC repository agnostic

* sg/object-as-type-commit-graph-fix (2019-01-27) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at cc714a044a)
+ object_as_type: initialize commit-graph-related fields of 'struct commit'
The commit-graph facility did not work when in-core objects that
are promoted from unknown type to commit (e.g. a commit that is
accessed via a tag that refers to it) were involved, which has been
corrected.
* sg/obstack-cast-function-type-fix (2019-01-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-01-29 at 568cafa7f4)

* bc/fetch-pack-clear-alternate-shallow (2019-02-04) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-02-05 at 14392fb6b2)
+ fetch-pack: clear alternate shallow when complete
"git fetch" over protocol v2 that needs to make a second connection
to backfill tags did not clear a variable that holds shallow
repository information correctly, leading to an access of freed
piece of memory.
Will merge to 'master'.
* dm/some-stdio-functions-are-macro-on-freebsd (2019-02-01) 1 commit

* sg/travis-osx-brew-breakage-workaround (2019-02-04) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-02-05 at 6a1d957040)
+ travis-ci: make the OSX build jobs' 'brew update' more quiet
The way the OSX build jobs updates its build environment used the
"--quiet" option to "brew update" command, but it wasn't all that
quiet to be useful. The use of the option has been replaced with
an explicit redirection to the /dev/null (which incidentally would
have worked around a breakage by recent updates to homebrew, which
has fixed itself already).

* sh/submodule-summary-abbrev-fix (2019-02-04) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-02-05 at b45b39c30b)
+ git-submodule.sh: shorten submodule SHA-1s using rev-parse
The "git submodule summary" subcommand showed shortened commit
object names by mechanically truncating them at 7-hexdigit, which
has been improved to let "rev-parse --short" scale the length of
the abbreviation with the size of the repository.

* nd/diff-parseopt (2019-01-27) 14 commits

+ parse-options: add one-shot mode
+ parse-options.h: remove extern on function prototypes
The diff machinery, one of the oldest parts of the system, which
long predates the parse-options API, uses fairly long and complex
handcrafted option parser. This is being rewritten to use the
parse-options API.

* wh/author-committer-ident-config (2019-02-04) 1 commit
- config: allow giving separate author and committer idents
Four new configuration variables {author,committer}.{name,email}

+ built-in rebase: call `git am` directly
+ rebase: teach `reset_head()` to optionally skip the worktree
+ rebase: avoid double reflog entry when switching branches
+ rebase: move `reset_head()` into a better spot
Instead of going through "git-rebase--am" scriptlet to use the "am"
backend, the built-in version of "git rebase" learned to drive the
"am" backend directly.

"--date=auto" can be used to use this new format when the output is
going to the pager or to the terminal and otherwise the default
format.

"git checkout --no-overlay" can be used to trigger a new mode of
checking out paths out of the tree-ish, that allows paths that
match the pathspec that are in the current index and working tree
and are not in the tree-ish.
Will hold.
Waiting for "restore-files" & "switch-branches" pair.

- merge: add scissors line on merge conflict
- merge: cleanup messages like commit
- t7600: clean up 'merge --squash c3 with c7' test
- commit: extract cleanup_mode functions to sequencer
The list of conflicted paths shown in the editor while concluding a
conflicted merge was shown above the scissors line when the
clean-up mode is set to "scissors", even though it was commented
out just like the list of updated paths and other information to
help the user explain the merge better.

exist is getting revamped.
Expecting a reroll.

"git rebase --merge" as been reimplemented by reusing the internal
machinery used for "git rebase -i".

* dl/remote-save-to-push (2018-12-11) 1 commit
- remote: add --save-to-push option to git remote set-url
"git remote set-url" learned a new option that moves existing value
of the URL field to pushURL field of the remote before replacing
the URL field with a new value.
I am personally not yet quite convinced if this is worth pursuing.
* js/protocol-advertise-multi (2018-12-28) 1 commit
- protocol: advertise multiple supported versions
The transport layer has been updated so that the protocol version
used can be negotiated between the parties, by the initiator
listing the protocol versions it is willing to talk, and the other
side choosing from one of them.
Is this ready for 'next'?
* js/smart-http-detect-remote-error (2019-01-07) 3 commits
- remote-curl: die on server-side errors
- remote-curl: tighten "version 2" check for smart-http
- remote-curl: refactor smart-http discovery
Some errors from the other side coming over smart HTTP transport
were not noticed, which has been corrected.
This needs to be rebased on top of a more recent 'master' that has
ms/packet-err-check.
* nb/branch-show-other-worktrees-head (2019-02-01) 3 commits
- branch: add an extra verbose output displaying worktree path for refs checked out in a linked worktree
- branch: mark and color a branch differently if it is checked out in a linked worktree
- ref-filter: add worktreepath atom
"git branch --list" learned to show branches that are checked out
in other worktrees connected to the same repository prefixed with
'+', similar to the way the currently checked out branch is shown
with '*' in front.
The second one is of dubious value.
* js/vsts-ci (2019-01-29) 21 commits

* du/branch-show-current (2018-10-26) 1 commit

* mk/use-size-t-in-zlib (2018-10-15) 1 commit
- 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".
* ag/sequencer-reduce-rewriting-todo (2019-01-29) 16 commits
- rebase--interactive: move transform_todo_file() to rebase--interactive.c
- sequencer: use edit_todo_list() in complete_action()
- rebase-interactive: rewrite edit_todo_list() to handle the initial edit
- rebase-interactive: append_todo_help() changes
- rebase-interactive: use todo_list_write_to_file() in edit_todo_list()

- sequencer: refactor rearrange_squash() to work on a todo_list
- sequencer: refactor sequencer_add_exec_commands() to work on a todo_list
- sequencer: refactor check_todo_list() to work on a todo_list
- sequencer: introduce todo_list_write_to_file()
- sequencer: refactor transform_todos() to work on a todo_list
- sequencer: remove the 'arg' field from todo_item
- sequencer: make the todo_list structure public
- sequencer: changes in parse_insn_buffer()
The scripted version of "git rebase -i" wrote and rewrote the todo
list many times during a single step of its operation, and the
recent C-rewrite made a faithful conversion of the logic to C. The
implementation has been updated to carry necessary information
around in-core to avoid rewriting the same file over and over
unnecessarily.
Still being worked on.

On hold, waiting for a response
cf. <xmqqzhraru5x.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
I personally do not mind "oops, this was wrong and I am too lazy to
redo the history to clean it up" too much, but waiting briefly to
give the final chance to do so.
* pw/add-p-select (2018-07-26) 4 commits
- add -p: optimize line selection for short hunks
- add -p: allow line selection to be inverted
- add -p: select modified lines correctly
- add -p: select individual hunk lines
"git add -p" interactive interface learned to let users choose
individual added/removed lines to be used in the operation, instead
of accepting or rejecting a whole hunk.
Will discard.
No further feedbacks on the topic for quite some time.

I found the feature to be hard to explain, and may result in more
end-user complaints, but let's see.
