I haven't had time to sanity/reality check description attached to
all the topics, so here is an unusual [DRAFT] report.
A few things.
- There are a few topics that I had to queue SQUASH??? band-aid on
top, to make the builds pass. Owners of these topics are hereby
requested to take them and merge them when they reroll.
- The reftable topic needs a bit of review love. Also it does not
pass the VS build job; it seems that contrib/buildsystems has
specific knowledge about various *.a files we may create
ourselves and use, which has no chance of knowing this new
subsystem that comes with its own *.a file. Help to making it
buildable would be quite appreciated.

(merged to 'next' on 2020-04-15 at eb2343a5eb)
+ midx.c: fix an integer underflow
When fed a midx that records no objects, some codepaths tried to
loop from 0 through (num_objects-1), which, due to integer
arithmetic wrapping around, made it nonsense operation with out of
bounds array accesses. The code has been corrected to reject such
an midx file.

(merged to 'next' on 2020-04-15 at 16276689b3)

side branch, which is normally omitted from the output, is shown
in addition to the commits that introduce real changes.
* eb/format-patch-no-encode-headers (2020-04-07) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2020-04-15 at 368840cd6c)
+ format-patch: teach --no-encode-email-headers
The output from "git format-patch" uses RFC 2047 encoding for
non-ASCII letters on From: and Subject: headers, so that it can
directly be fed to e-mail programs. A new option has been added
to produce these headers in raw.

(merged to 'next' on 2020-04-15 at 9908cee7c0)

+ rebase: reinstate --no-keep-empty
+ rebase -i: mark commits that begin empty in todo editor
(this branch is used by jt/rebase-allow-duplicate.)
"git rebase" (again) learns to honor "--no-keep-empty", which lets
the user to discard commits that are empty from the beginning (as
opposed to the ones that become empty because of rebasing). The
interactive rebase also marks commits that are empty in the todo.

about a full year without anybody noticing, which has been
corrected.

(merged to 'next' on 2020-04-15 at 11d6110e99)
+ clone: use "quick" lookup while following tags
The logic to auto-follow tags by "git clone --single-branch" was
not careful to avoid lazy-fetching unnecessary tags, which has been
corrected.

(merged to 'next' on 2020-04-15 at 408afae2c9)
+ import-tars: ignore the global PAX header
The import-tars importer (in contrib/fast-import/) used to create
phony files at the top-level of the repository when the archive
contains global PAX headers, which made its own logic to detect and
omit the common leading directory ineffective, which has been
corrected.

* jc/rebase-backend-keep-old-default (2020-03-10) 1 commit
. rebase: do not switch the default to 'merge' just yet
The "merge" backend of "git rebase" still has a few bugs and

the default. Let's switch the default back to the "apply" backend
for now.

or a single new incremental graph is created.
Discarded---tb/commit-graph-split-strategy supersedes this.
