Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'seen' (formerly '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. We are at 7th batch. I'm trying to merge smaller batches of topics to the 'master' branch more often than the previous cycles. I will also experiment, for smaller topics, with shorter gestation period in 'next' before merging them to the 'master' branch. We'll see if this lowers stability of the tip of 'master' significantly; not that much, hopefully. 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

Earlier, to countermand the implicit "-m" option when the "--first-parent" option is used with "git log", we added the "--[no-]diff-merges" option in the jk/log-fp-implies-m topic. To leave the door open to allow the "--diff-merges" option to take values that instructs how patches for merge commits should be computed (e.g. "cc"? "-p against first parent?"), redefine "--diff-merges" to take non-optional value, and implement "off" that means the same thing as "--no-diff-merges".

Needs tests. * 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).

"git maintenance", an extended big brother of "git gc", continues to evolve. Under review. A "review club" reviews have been posted for an early few steps. * ma/doc-sha-256-is-experimental (2020-08-06) 1 commit - Documentation: mark `--object-format=sha256` as experimental The recent addition of SHA-256 support is marked as experimental in the documentation.

Will merge to 'master'. * jc/noop-with-static-inline (2020-08-06) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2020-08-11 at 8a63ff648e) + compat-util: type-check parameters of no-op replacement functions A no-op replacement function implemented as a C preprocessor macro does not perform as good a job as one implemented as a "static inline" function in catching errors in parameters; replace the former with the latter in <git-compat-util.h> header. Will merge to 'master'. * ps/ref-transaction-hook (2020-08-11) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2020-08-11 at 311c045810) + t1416: avoid hard-coded sha1 ids (merged to 'next' on 2020-08-10 at d8ad7cc8f6) + refs: fix interleaving hook calls with reference-transaction hook The logic to find the ref transaction hook script attempted to cache the path to the found hook without realizing that it needed to keep a copied value, as the API it used returned a transitory buffer space. This has been corrected. Will merge to 'master'. to be followed by a removal of the caching feature, which does not seem to help even as a negative cache. * ss/submodule-summary-in-c (2020-08-12) 4 commits - submodule: port submodule subcommand 'summary' from shell to C - t7421: introduce a test script for verifying 'summary' output - submodule: rename helper functions to avoid ambiguity - submodule: remove extra line feeds between callback struct and macro Yet another subcommand of "git submodule" is getting rewritten in C.

It needs a better log message. * es/init-no-separate-git-dir-in-bare (2020-08-10) 1 commit - init: disallow --separate-git-dir with bare repository The purpose of "git init --separate-git-dir" is to initialize a new project with the repository separate from the working tree, or, in the case of an existing project, to move the repository (the .git/ directory) out of the working tree. It does not make sense to use --separate-git-dir with a bare repository for which there is no working tree, so disallow its use with bare repositories.

Originally merged to 'next' on 2020-08-01 "git log --first-parent -p" showed patches only for single-parent commits on the first-parent chain; the "--first-parent" option has been made to imply "-m". Use "--no-diff-merges" to restore the previous behaviour to omit patches for merge commits. Will merge to 'master' together with 'so/log-diff-merges-opt' * pd/mergetool-nvimdiff (2020-07-29) 2 commits (merged to 'next' on 2020-08-11 at 947ce686d0) + mergetools: add support for nvimdiff (neovim) family + mergetool--lib: improve support for vimdiff-style tool variants The existing backends for "git mergetool" based on variants of vim have been refactored and then support for "nvim" has been added.

Expecting a reroll. Now jk/strvec is in 'master', we may want to see the topic reworked on top of it. Are there unresolved issues, or does the topic need a round of detailed review? cf. <xmqqmu3i9kvg.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
