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.
An early preview 2.22-rc0 has been tagged. Among the topics merged
to 'master' there might be some that are a bit undercooked, but
hopefully we can stabilize them quickly enough.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

* cc/access-on-aix-workaround (2019-04-25) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at 79b25b1954)
+ git-compat-util: work around for access(X_OK) under root
Workaround for standard-compliant but less-than-useful behaviour of
access(2) for the root user.
* dl/no-extern-in-func-decl (2019-05-05) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at d165ac4cee)
+ *.[ch]: manually align parameter lists
+ *.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using sed
+ *.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using spatch
Mechanically and systematically drop "extern" from function
declarlation.
* dl/rev-tilde-doc-clarify (2019-05-08) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at 6efd564b11)
+ revisions.txt: remove ambibuity between <rev>:<path> and :<path>
+ revisions.txt: mention <rev>~ form
+ revisions.txt: mark optional rev arguments with []
+ revisions.txt: change "rev" to "<rev>"
Docfix.
* ew/repack-with-bitmaps-by-default (2019-03-18) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at 4f8e8b01c8)
+ pack-objects: default to writing bitmap hash-cache
+ t5310: correctly remove bitmaps for jgit test
+ repack: enable bitmaps by default on bare repos
The connectivity bitmaps are created by default in bare
repositories now; also the pathname hash-cache is created by
default to avoid making crappy deltas when repacking.

* jc/make-dedup-ls-files-output (2019-04-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at e3d5825003)
+ Makefile: dedup list of files obtained from ls-files
A "ls-files" that emulates "find" to enumerate files in the working
tree resulted in duplicated Makefile rules that caused the build to
issue an unnecessary warning during a trial build after merge
conflicts are resolved in working tree *.h files but before the
resolved results are added to the index. This has been corrected.
A not-so-low hanging fruit to teach ls-files to dedup either optionally
or always has also been discussed, which probably is a good idea,
to prevent mistakes similar to the bug this topic fixes in the future.
* jh/trace2 (2019-05-10) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-10 at 8b4b5564af)
+ trace2: fix up a missing "leave" entry point
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at e1bba8aeac)
+ trace2: fix incorrect function pointer check
A few embarrassing bugfixes.
* jh/trace2-sid-fix (2019-05-07) 11 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-10 at 71c39675ec)
+ trace2: fixup access problem on /etc/gitconfig in read_very_early_config
(merged to 'next' on 2019-04-25 at a5c08f1226)
+ trace2: update docs to describe system/global config settings
+ trace2: make SIDs more unique
+ trace2: clarify UTC datetime formatting
+ trace2: report peak memory usage of the process
+ trace2: use system/global config for default trace2 settings
+ config: add read_very_early_config()
+ trace2: find exec-dir before trace2 initialization
+ trace2: add absolute elapsed time to start event
+ trace2: refactor setting process starting time
+ config: initialize opts structure in repo_read_config()
Polishing of the new trace2 facility continues. The system-level
configuration can specify site-wide trace2 settings, which can be
overridden with per-user configuration and environment variables.

* jk/ls-files-doc-markup-fix (2019-04-23) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at a68fe0ae72)
+ doc/ls-files: put nested list for "-t" option into block
Docfix.
* jk/p5302-avoid-collision-check-cost (2019-04-23) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at 8dc92cad96)
+ p5302: create the repo in each index-pack test
Fix index-pack perf test so that the repeated invocations always
run in an empty repository, which emulates the initial clone
situation better.
* jk/perf-aggregate-wo-libjson (2019-04-24) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at e697c1993b)
+ t/perf: depend on perl JSON only when using --codespeed
The script to aggregate perf result unconditionally depended on
libjson-perl even though it did not have to, which has been
corrected.
* js/partial-clone-connectivity-check (2019-05-05) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-10 at e1d3a6ebde)
+ t/perf: add perf script for partial clones
(merged to 'next' on 2019-04-25 at ebd8b4bffd)
+ clone: do faster object check for partial clones
During an initial "git clone --depth=..." partial clone, it is
pointless to spend cycles for a large portion of the connectivity
check that enumerates and skips promisor objects (which by
definition is all objects fetched from the other side). This has
been optimized out.
* pw/clean-sequencer-state-upon-final-commit (2019-04-17) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at cf6cce8ca7)
+ fix cherry-pick/revert status after commit
+ commit/reset: try to clean up sequencer state
"git chery-pick" (and "revert" that shares the same runtime engine)
that deals with multiple commits got confused when the final step
gets stopped with a conflict and the user concluded the sequence
with "git commit". Attempt to fix it by cleaning up the state
files used by these commands in such a situation.
* pw/rebase-i-internal (2019-04-19) 13 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-09 at 1206aa6865)
+ rebase -i: run without forking rebase--interactive
+ rebase: use a common action enum
+ rebase -i: use struct rebase_options in do_interactive_rebase()
+ rebase -i: use struct rebase_options to parse args
+ rebase -i: use struct object_id for squash_onto
+ rebase -i: use struct commit when parsing options
+ rebase -i: remove duplication
+ rebase -i: combine rebase--interactive.c with rebase.c
+ rebase: use OPT_RERERE_AUTOUPDATE()
+ rebase: rename write_basic_state()
+ rebase: don't translate trace strings
+ sequencer: always discard index after checkout
+ Merge branch 'ag/sequencer-reduce-rewriting-todo' into pw/rebase-i-internal
(this branch is used by pw/rebase-abort-clean-rewritten.)
The internal implementation of "git rebase -i" has been updated to
avoid forking a separate "rebase--interactive" process.

* cw/diff-highlight (2019-05-09) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-13 at 050d707166)

Portability fix for a diff-highlight tool (in contrib/).

* js/difftool-no-index (2019-05-09) 1 commit
- difftool --no-index: error out on --dir-diff (and don't crash)
The "--dir-diff" mode of "git difftool" is not useful in "--no-index"
mode; they are now explicitly marked as mutually incompatible.

* sb/format-patch-base-patch-id-fix (2019-05-08) 2 commits
- format-patch: make --base patch-id output stable
- format-patch: inform user that patch-id generation is unstable
The recently added "--base" option of "format-patch" computed the
patch-ids for prerequisite patches in an unstable way, which has
been updated to compute in a way that is compatible with "git
patch-id --stable".
Will merge to 'next'.
* ab/send-email-transferencoding-fix (2019-05-13) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2019-05-13 at 38c6a1e7e0)
+ send-email: do defaults -> config -> getopt in that order
+ send-email: rename the @bcclist variable for consistency
+ send-email: move the read_config() function above getopts
Since "git send-email" learned to take 'auto' as the value for the
transfer-encoding, it by mistake stopped honoring the values given
to the configuration variables sendemail.transferencoding and/or
sendemail.<ident>.transferencoding. This has been corrected to
(finally) redoing the order of setting the default, reading the
configuration and command line options.
Will merge to 'master'.
* ab/trace2-typofix (2019-05-13) 1 commit

* dl/format-patch-notes-config (2019-05-13) 2 commits
- format-patch: teach format.notes config option
- git-format-patch.txt: document --no-notes option
"git format-patch" learns a configuration to set the default for
its --notes=<ref> option.
The interaction between config and option may be a little iffy.

"git status" did not know that the "label" instruction in the
todo-list "rebase -i -r" uses should not be shown as a hex object
name.
Will merge to 'next'.
* nd/init-relative-template-fix (2019-05-13) 1 commit
- init: make --template path relative to $CWD
A relative pathname given to "git init --template=<path> <repo>"
ought to be relative to the directory "git init" gets invoked in,
but it instead was made relative to the repository, which has been
corrected.

"git branch new A...B" and "git checkout -b new A...B" have been

Attempt to use an abbreviated option in "git clone --recurs" is

Two new commands "git switch" and "git restore" are introduced to
split "checking out a branch to work on advancing its history" and
"checking out paths out of the index and/or a tree-ish to work on
advancing the current history" out of the single "git checkout"
command.
The "switch" part seems more or less ready for testing. Perhaps
we should split this back into two topics and merge it to 'next'.

* jc/format-patch-noclobber (2019-02-22) 1 commit
- format-patch: --no-clobber refrains from overwriting output files
"git format-patch" used to overwrite an existing patch/cover-letter
file. A new "--no-clobber" option stops it.
Undecided but inclined to discard.
* am/p4-branches-excludes (2019-04-02) 8 commits
- git-p4: respect excluded paths when detecting branches
- git-p4: add failing test for "git-p4: respect excluded paths when detecting branches"
- git-p4: don't exclude other files with same prefix
- git-p4: add failing test for "don't exclude other files with same prefix"
- git-p4: don't groom exclude path list on every commit
- git-p4: match branches case insensitively if configured
- git-p4: add failing test for "git-p4: match branches case insensitively if configured"
- git-p4: detect/prevent infinite loop in gitCommitByP4Change()
"git p4" update.
Is this ready for 'next'?
* dl/rebase-i-keep-base (2019-04-25) 6 commits
- rebase: teach rebase --keep-base
- rebase: fast-forward --fork-point in more cases
- rebase: fast-forward --onto in more cases
- rebase: refactor can_fast_forward into goto tower
- t3432: test rebase fast-forward behavior
- t3431: add rebase --fork-point tests
"git rebase --keep-base <upstream>" tries to find the original base
of the topic being rebased and rebase on top of that same base,
which is useful when running the "git rebase -i" (and its limited
variant "git rebase -x").
The command also has learned to fast-forward in more cases where it
can instead of replaying to recreate identical commits.
On hold.

* nd/worktree-name-sanitization (2019-03-20) 2 commits
- SQUASH???
- worktree add: sanitize worktree names
In recent versions of Git, per-worktree refs are exposed in
refs/worktrees/<wtname>/ hierarchy, which means that worktree names
must be a valid refname component. The code now sanitizes the names
given to worktrees, to make sure these refs are well-formed.
I am inclined to squash the fix at the tip in and merge the result
to 'next'. Opinions?

* br/blame-ignore (2019-04-14) 6 commits
- blame: use a fingerprint heuristic to match ignored lines
- blame: optionally track line fingerprints during fill_blame_origin()
- blame: add config options to handle output for ignored lines
- blame: add the ability to ignore commits and their changes
- blame: use a helper function in blame_chunk()
- Move init_skiplist() outside of fsck
"git blame" learned to "ignore" commits in the history, whose
effects (as well as their presence) get ignored.
Expecting a reroll.

* nd/precious (2019-04-09) 1 commit
. Introduce "precious" file concept
"git clean" learned to pay attention to the 'precious' attributes
and keep untracked paths with the attribute instead of removing
when the "--keep-precious" is given.
Retracted.
cf. <CACsJy8AEZ-Lz6zgEsuNukvphB9TTa9FAC1gK05fhnie2xtfc9w@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
I am not sure what aspect of this longer-term "precious" vision,
which gets taught to various commands and use cases individually
and incrementally, Ævar finds problematic, which I understand is
the reason of redtraction.

. http: cast result to FILE *
Variants of BSD define fileno(fh) as a macro, breaking a program
that passes a "void *" to it.
Can be safely discarded.

coalesce small pack files that are still in use.
Tentatively dropped
