What's cooking in git.git (Apr 2021, #02; Thu, 8)

[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 '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.

Copies of the source code to Git live in many repositories, and the
following is a list of the ones I push into or their mirrors.  Some
repositories have only a subset of branches.

With maint, master, next, seen, todo:

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/
	git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git/
	https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git/
	https://github.com/git/git/
	https://gitlab.com/git-vcs/git/

With all the integration branches and topics broken out:

	https://github.com/gitster/git/

Even though the preformatted documentation in HTML and man format
are not sources, they are published in these repositories for
convenience (replace "htmldocs" with "manpages" for the manual
pages):

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-htmldocs.git/
	https://github.com/gitster/git-htmldocs.git/

Release tarballs are available at:

  (merged to 'next' on 2021-03-30 at 701f5c0696)
 + csum-file: make hashwrite() more readable

 The hashwrite() API uses a buffering mechanism to avoid calling
 write(2) too frequently. This logic has been refactored to be
 easier to understand.

  (merged to 'next' on 2021-04-01 at 2e3c705a73)
 + sequencer: fix edit handling for cherry-pick and revert messages

 "git cherry-pick/revert" with or without "--[no-]edit" did not spawn
 the editor as expected (e.g. "revert --no-edit" after a conflict
 still asked to edit the message), which has been corrected.


* js/cmake-vsbuild (2021-03-29) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-03-31 at e0c4369f65)

 "git clone --reject-shallow" option fails the clone as soon as we
 notice that we are cloning from a shallow repository.


* ps/pack-bitmap-optim (2021-03-22) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-03-31 at 12bb775d9a)

 Optimize "rev-list --use-bitmap-index --objects" corner case that
 uses negative tags as the stopping points.


* rs/daemon-sanitize-dir-sep (2021-03-26) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-04-01 at c8f43b1c8d)
 + daemon: sanitize all directory separators

 "git daemon" has been tightened against systems that take backslash
 as directory separator.


* tb/reverse-midx (2021-04-01) 17 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-04-01 at 17c9542606)

 + Merge branch 'ds/chunked-file-api' into tb/reverse-midx

 An on-disk reverse-index to map the in-pack location of an object
 back to its object name across multiple packfiles is introduced.


* zh/commit-trailer (2021-03-23) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-03-31 at f17d196ee1)
 + commit: add --trailer option
 (this branch is used by zh/trailer-cmd.)

 "git commit" learned "--trailer <key>[=<value>]" option; together
 with the interpret-trailers command, this will make it easier to
 support custom trailers.

  (merged to 'next' on 2021-03-24 at ce573a99cc)

 ... we would be much better off to say something like "somebody
 expected X to be a commit, but now somebody else expects it to be a
 blob", which is all that we can reliably say.

* cc/test-helper-bloom-usage-fix (2021-04-05) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-04-06 at 4895f33fee)
 + test-bloom: fix missing 'bloom' from usage string

 Usage message fix for a test helper.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* jz/apply-run-3way-first (2021-04-06) 1 commit
 - git-apply: try threeway first when "--3way" is used
 (this branch is used by jz/apply-3way-cached.)

 "git apply --3way" has always been "to fall back to 3-way merge
 only when straight application fails". Swap the order of falling
 back so that 3-way is always attempted first (only when the option
 is given, of course) and then straight patch application is used as
 a fallback when it fails.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* ds/maintenance-prefetch-fix (2021-04-06) 5 commits
 - maintenance: allow custom refspecs during prefetch
 - test-tool: test refspec input/output
 - refspec: output a refspec item
 - test-lib: use exact match for test_subcommand
 - maintenance: simplify prefetch logic

 The prefetch task in "git maintenance" assumed that "git fetch"
 from any remote would fetch all its local branches, which would
 fetch too much if the user is interested in only a subset of
 branches there.

 Expecting a reroll.
 cf. <35fa99cf-ba24-f13e-0607-f9acce2905cf@xxxxxxxxx>


* ab/complete-cherry-pick-head (2021-04-07) 1 commit

 - bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_visualize()`shell function in C
 - run-command: make `exists_in_PATH()` non-static

 The codepaths involved in running "git bisect visualize" and "git
 bisect run" has been rewritten in C.

 Expecting a reroll.

 The last remnant of gettext-poison has been removed.

* jz/apply-3way-cached (2021-04-07) 1 commit
 - git-apply: allow simultaneous --cached and --3way options
 (this branch uses jz/apply-run-3way-first.)

 "git apply" now takes "--3way" and "--cached" at the same time, and
 work and record results only in the index.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* vs/completion-with-set-u (2021-04-08) 1 commit
 - completion: audit and guard $GIT_* against unset use

 The command-line completion script (in contrib/) had a couple of

 option.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* sg/bugreport-fixes (2021-04-08) 1 commit
 - Makefile: add missing dependencies of 'config-list.h'

 corrected.

 The way the command line specified by the trailer.<token>.command

 both error prone and misleading.  An alternative to achieve the
 same goal in a safer and more intuitive way has been added, as
 the trailer.<token>.cmd configuration variable, to replace it.

 mode of sparse checkout is in use.

 On hold, waiting for the "protections" topic to stablize.

  (merged to 'next' on 2021-04-07 at 9826d89311)
 + diffcore-rename: determine which relevant_sources are no longer relevant
 + merge-ort: record the reason that we want a rename for a file
 + diffcore-rename: add computation of number of unknown renames
 + diffcore-rename: check if we have enough renames for directories early on
 + diffcore-rename: only compute dir_rename_count for relevant directories
 + merge-ort: record the reason that we want a rename for a directory
 + merge-ort, diffcore-rename: tweak dirs_removed and relevant_source type
 + diffcore-rename: take advantage of "majority rules" to skip more renames
 (this branch is used by en/ort-perf-batch-11 and en/ort-readiness.)

 Various rename detection optimization to help "ort" merge strategy
 backend.

 Will merge to 'master'.

 (this branch uses ds/sparse-index.)

 Builds on top of the sparse-index infrastructure to mark operations
 that are not ready to mark with the sparse index, causing them to
 fall back on fully-populated index that they always have worked with.


* en/ort-readiness (2021-03-20) 13 commits
 - Add testing with merge-ort merge strategy
 - t6423: mark remaining expected failure under merge-ort as such
 - Revert "merge-ort: ignore the directory rename split conflict for now"
 - merge-recursive: add a bunch of FIXME comments documenting known bugs
 - merge-ort: write $GIT_DIR/AUTO_MERGE whenever we hit a conflict
 - t: mark several submodule merging tests as fixed under merge-ort
 - merge-ort: implement CE_SKIP_WORKTREE handling with conflicted entries
 - t6428: new test for SKIP_WORKTREE handling and conflicts
 - merge-ort: support subtree shifting
 - merge-ort: let renormalization change modify/delete into clean delete
 - merge-ort: have ll_merge() use a special attr_index for renormalization
 - merge-ort: add a special minimal index just for renormalization
 - merge-ort: use STABLE_QSORT instead of QSORT where required
 (this branch is used by en/ort-perf-batch-11; uses en/ort-perf-batch-10.)

 Plug the ort merge backend throughout the rest of the system, and
 start testing it as a replacement for the recursive backend.

 Will merge to 'next'?
