What's cooking in git.git (Jun 2020, #03; Wed, 17)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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.

The third batch of topics are now in 'master'.

You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

    http://git-blame.blogspot.com/p/git-public-repositories.html

 (this branch uses cc/upload-pack-data-2)

 Code clean-up in the codepath that serves "git fetch" continues.

* ct/diff-with-merge-base-clarification (2020-06-12) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2020-06-17 at e0b54a001c)
 + Documentation: usage for diff combined commits
 + git diff: improve range handling
 + t/t3430: avoid undefined git diff behavior

 "git diff" used to take arguments in random and nonsense range
 notation, e.g. "git diff A..B C", "git diff A..B C...D", etc.,
 which has been cleaned up.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* js/default-branch-name (2020-06-10) 9 commits
 - Document how the default branch name can be overridden
 - fast-export: respect the possibly-overridden default branch name

 - testsvn: respect `core.defaultBranchName`
 - send-pack/transport-helper: respect `core.defaultBranchName`
 - remote: respect `core.defaultBranchName`
 - init: allow overriding the default branch name for new repositories

 The name of the primary branch in existing repositories, and the
 default name used for the first branch in newly created
 repositories, is made configurable, so that we can eventually wean
 ourselves off of the hardcoded 'master'.

 Expecting a reroll.


* jt/cdn-offload (2020-06-17) 10 commits
 - upload-pack: fix a sparse '0 as NULL pointer' warning

 (this branch uses cc/upload-pack-data-2)

 The "fetch/clone" protocol has been updated to allow the server to
 instruct the clients to grab pre-packaged packfile(s) in addition
 to the packed object data coming over the wire.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 - commit: move members graph_pos, generation to a slab
 - commit-graph: introduce commit_graph_data_slab
 - object: drop parsed_object_pool->commit_count

 A few fields in "struct commit" that do not have to always be
 present have been moved to commit slabs.


* en/clean-cleanups (2020-06-12) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2020-06-17 at 2c4ec990a6)
 + clean: optimize and document cases where we recurse into subdirectories

 "git merge-base --is-ancestor" is taught to take advantage of the
 commit graph.

 Will merge to 'next'.

--------------------------------------------------
[Stalled]

* 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.
 cf. <20200416152145.wp2zeibxmuyas6y6@feanor>


* mr/bisect-in-c-2 (2020-04-23) 12 commits

 Expecting a response to reviews.
 cf. <nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.2005230007260.56@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


* 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".

--------------------------------------------------
[Cooking]

* dl/test-must-fail-fixes-5 (2020-06-12) 4 commits

  (merged to 'next' on 2020-06-12 at 912c337d63)

 + worktree: prune duplicate entries referencing same worktree path
 + worktree: make high-level pruning re-usable
 + worktree: give "should be pruned?" function more meaningful name

 The same worktree directory must be registered only once, but
 "git worktree move" allowed this invariant to be violated, which
 has been corrected.

 Will merge to 'master'.

 Further code clean-up.

 Will merge to 'master'.

 - sparse-checkout: upgrade repository to version 1 when enabling extension
 - fetch: allow adding a filter after initial clone
 - repository: add a helper function to perform repository format upgrade

 Allow runtime upgrade of the repository format version, which needs

 There is a rather unpleasant backward compatibility worry with the
 last step of this series, but it is the right thing to do in the
 longer term.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 Rewrite of parts of the scripted "git submodule" Porcelain command
 continues; this time it is "git submodule set-branch" subcommand's
 turn.

 Will merge to 'next'.

 "git grep" has been tweaked to be limited to the sparse checkout
 paths.

 Review needed on 4/6; otherwise looking sane.
 cf. <CABPp-BGdEyEeajYZj_rdxp=MyEQdszuyjVTax=hhYj3fOtRQUQ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

* hn/reftable (2020-06-17) 18 commits
 . SQUASH??? whitespace breakage fix
 . Add "test-tool dump-reftable" command.

 A new refs backend "reftable" to replace the traditional

 has been implemented and integrated for improved performance and
 atomicity.

 Tentatively omitted from tonight's pushout but will push out 'pu'
 again with this merged in (which will break the tests,
 unfortunately).
