It has only been two days since the previous issue, but here it is. Two topics at the tip of 'seen' breaks CI (d000d1d); it can be seen that an extra CI run on 'seen' without them (7d8ed3b) passes. (d000d1d) https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/1053603028 (7d8ed3b) https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/1053483465 --- >8 ------ >8 ------ >8 --- Here are the topics that have been cooking in my tree. Commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next' (being in 'next' is a sign that a topic is stable enough to be used and are candidate to be in a future release). Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'seen', which means nothing more than that I have found them of interest for some reason (like "it may have hard-to-resolve conflicts with another topic already in flight" or "this may turn out to be useful"). Do not read too much into a topic being in (or not in) 'seen'. 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: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ -------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * ab/bundle-tests (2021-07-20) 2 commits - bundle tests: use test_cmp instead of grep - bundle tests: use ">file" not ": >file" "git bundle" gained more test coverage.
