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.
Git 2.27 final soon.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

* en/fast-import-looser-date (2020-05-31) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2020-05-31 at 49de9c07c5)
+ fast-import: add new --date-format=raw-permissive format
Some repositories in the wild have commits that record nonsense
committer timezone (e.g. rails.git); "git fast-import" learned an
option to pass these nonsense timestamps intact to allow recreating
existing repositories as-is.

to be done carefully.
Almost there.

* dr/push-remoteref-fix (2020-04-23) 1 commit
- remote.c: fix handling of %(push:remoteref)
The "%(push:remoteref)" placeholder in the "--format=" argument of
"git format-patch" (and friends) only showed what got explicitly
configured, not what ref at the receiving end would be updated when
"git push" was used, as it ignored the default behaviour (e.g. update
the same ref as the source).
Expecting a reroll.

- lib-submodule-update: prepend "git" to $command
- lib-submodule-update: consolidate --recurse-submodules
- lib-submodule-update: add space after function name
The effort to avoid using test_must_fail on non-git command continues.
Waiting for a review thread to settle.

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".

+ completion: don't override given stash subcommand with -p
The command line completion script (in contrib/) tried to complete

aggressive and also affected "git stash show -p", which has been
corrected.

(merged to 'next' on 2020-05-24 at 1f4ea6b348)
+ sparse: allow '{ 0 }' to be used without warnings
We've adopted a convention that any on-stack structure can be
initialized to have zero values in all fields with "= { 0 }", even
when the first field happens to be a pointer, but sparse complained
that a null pointer should be spelled NULL for a long time. Start
using -Wno-universal-initializer option to squelch it.

prematurely throws an error and disconnects. The communication has
been updated to make it more robust.

* hn/reftable (2020-05-28) 13 commits
. Add reftable testing infrastructure
. vcxproj: adjust for the reftable changes

A new refs backend "reftable" to replace the traditional
combination of packed-refs files and one-file-per-ref loose refs
has been implemented and integrated for improved performance and
atomicity.
Not quite--does not pass tests by itself.

at GitHub via GitHub Actions, only build when branches with known
