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

files in the working tree.

* js/early-config-with-onbranch (2019-07-31) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-08-01 at 26b713c824)
+ config: work around bug with includeif:onbranch and early config
The recently added [includeif "onbranch:branch"] feature does not
work well with an early config mechanism, as it attempts to find
out what branch we are on before we even haven't located the git
repository. The inclusion during early config scan is ignored to
work around this issue.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jc/log-mailmap-flip-defaults (2019-08-01) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2019-08-01 at 80cddd7895)

[Stalled]
* jn/unknown-index-extensions (2018-11-21) 2 commits
- index: offer advice for unknown index extensions
- index: do not warn about unrecognized extensions
A bit too alarming warning given when unknown index extensions
exist is getting revamped.
Expecting a reroll.
* jc/format-patch-delay-message-id (2019-04-05) 1 commit
- format-patch: move message-id and related headers to the end
The location "git format-patch --thread" adds the Message-Id:
header in the series of header fields has been moved down, which
may help working around a suspected bug in GMail MSA, reported at
<CAHk-=whP1stFZNAaJiMi5eZ9rj0MRt20Y_yHVczZPH+O01d+sA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Waiting for feedback to see if it truly helps.
Needs tests.
* jt/fetch-cdn-offload (2019-03-12) 9 commits
- SQUASH???
- upload-pack: send part of packfile response as uri
- fetch-pack: support more than one pack lockfile
- upload-pack: refactor reading of pack-objects out
- Documentation: add Packfile URIs design doc
- Documentation: order protocol v2 sections
- http-fetch: support fetching packfiles by URL
- http: improve documentation of http_pack_request
- http: use --stdin when getting dumb HTTP pack
WIP for allowing a response to "git fetch" to instruct the bulk of
the pack contents to be instead taken from elsewhere (aka CDN).
* 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.
Expecting a reroll.

* 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".
* 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.
Anybody who wants to champion this topic?
I am personally not yet quite convinced if this is worth pursuing.

* vn/reset-deleted-ita (2019-07-26) 1 commit
- reset: unstage empty deleted ita files
"git reset HEAD [<pathspec>]" did not reset an empty file that was
added with the intent-to-add bit.
Expecting a reroll.
* ra/rebase-i-more-options (2019-07-23) 4 commits
- SQUASH???
- rebase -i: support --committer-date-is-author-date
- sequencer: add NULL checks under read_author_script
- rebase -i: add --ignore-whitespace flag
"git rebase -i" learned a few options that are known by "git
rebase" proper.
Needs a bit of fixups, at least.

- t3427: accommodate for the `rebase --merge` backend having been replaced
- t3427: fix erroneous assumption
- t3427: condense the unnecessarily repetitive test cases into three
- t3427: move the `filter-branch` invocation into the `setup` case
- t3427: simplify the `setup` test case significantly
- t3427: add a clarifying comment
- rebase: fold git-rebase--common into the -p backend
- sequencer: the `am` and `rebase--interactive` scripts are gone
- .gitignore: there is no longer a built-in `git-rebase--interactive`
- t3400: stop referring to the scripted rebase
- Drop unused git-rebase--am.sh
"git rebase --rebase-merges" learned to drive different merge
strategies and pass strategy specific options to them.
* js/trace2-json-schema (2019-07-25) 3 commits
. ci: run trace2 schema validation in the CI suite
. trace2: add a schema validator for trace2 events
. trace2: add a JSON schema for trace2 events
The JSON output produced by "trace2" subsystem now has JSON schema
defined on it, to allow us validate the output and catch deviation.
The CI integration may be a bit too heavy-handed.

Support building Git with Visual Studio
The bits about .git/branches/* have been dropped from the series.

tests should rely on the existence of the support to pass.

+ log tests: test regex backends in "--encode=<enc>" tests
(this branch is used by ab/pcre-jit-fixes.)
Retire use of kwset library, which is an optimization for looking
for fixed strings, with use of pcre2 JIT.
Kicked out of 'next' to give the topic a chance to get rebooted.

* 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

* 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.
