What's cooking in git.git (Oct 2021, #04; Thu, 14)

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

 



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.

A handful of topics have been merged to 'master' and 'next' has also
acquired some topics.

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/

 the cmd subcommand may take sub-sub-command), parse-options API
 learned to align these lines, even across i18n/l10n.

 "git grep --recurse-submodules" takes trees and blobs from the
 submodule repository, but the textconv settings when processing a
 blob from the submodule is not taken from the submodule repository.
 A test is added to demonstrate the issue, without fixing it.

  (merged to 'next' on 2021-10-14 at 08c52f5cd5)
 + commit: fix duplication regression in permission error output
 + unwritable tests: assert exact error output

 "git commit" gave duplicated error message when the object store

 - SQUASH???

 - signature-format.txt: add space to fix gpgsig continuation line

 Values in the header portion of commit object can be multi-lined
 by a single SP indentation of the second and subsequent lines, and
 this applies to an empty line as well.  Update an example in the
 technical documentation to highlight it.

 Under discussion.

 I am tempted to supersede this with the one with another approach,
 in the jc/doc-commit-header-continuation-line topic.

 The PATH used in CI job may be too wide and let incompatible dlls
 to be grabbed, which can cause the build&test to fail.  Tighten it.

* jk/cat-file-batch-all-wo-replace (2021-10-08) 5 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-10-11 at 9415f7c43a)
 + cat-file: use packed_object_info() for --batch-all-objects
 + cat-file: split ordered/unordered batch-all-objects callbacks
 + cat-file: disable refs/replace with --batch-all-objects
 + cat-file: mention --unordered along with --batch-all-objects
 + t1006: clean up broken objects

 "git cat-file --batch" with the "--batch-all-objects" option is
 supposed to iterate over all the objects found in a repository, but
 it used to translate these object names using the replace mechanism,
 which defeats the point of enumerating all objects in the repository.
 This has been corrected.

 Will merge to 'master'.

 Userdiff patterns for the C++ language has been updated.

 Will merge to 'next'.


* mp/absorb-submodule-git-dir-upon-deinit (2021-10-07) 1 commit
 - submodule: absorb git dir instead of dying on deinit

 "git submodule deinit" for a submodule whose .git metadata
 directory is embedded in its working tree refused to work, until
 the submodule gets converted to use the "absorbed" form where the
 metadata directory is stored in superproject, and a gitfile at the
 top-level of the working tree of the submodule points at it.  The
 command is taught to convert such submodules to the absorbed form
 as needed.

 Under review.

* ns/remerge-diff (2021-10-08) 8 commits

 - merge-ort: add ability to record conflict messages in a file
 - merge-ort: mark a few more conflict messages as omittable
 - Merge branch 'ns/tmp-objdir' into ns/remerge-diff
 (this branch uses ns/tmp-objdir.)

 A new presentation for two-parent merge "--remerge-diff" can be
 used to show the difference between mechanical (and possibly
 conflicted) merge results and the recorded resolution.

 On hold.
 This is Elijah's remerge-diff rebased on ns/tmp-objdir to share the
 "create objects temporarily, only to discard without committing
 them to longer-term storage" infrastructure with another topic.


* ns/tmp-objdir (2021-10-04) 2 commits
 - tmp-objdir: disable ref updates when replacing the primary odb
 - tmp-objdir: new API for creating temporary writable databases

 New interface into the tmp-objdir API to help in-core use of the
 quarantine feature.

* pw/sparse-cache-tree-verify-fix (2021-10-07) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2021-10-11 at 2f90c87850)
 + sparse index: fix use-after-free bug in cache_tree_verify()

 Recent sparse-index addition, namely any use of index_name_pos(),
 can expand sparse index entries and breaks any code that walks
 cache-tree or existing index entries.  One such instance of such a
 breakage has been corrected.

 Will merge to 'master'.


* rs/make-verify-path-really-verify-again (2021-10-07) 3 commits

 + read-cache: let verify_path() reject trailing dir separators again
 + read-cache: add verify_path_internal()

 Various operating modes of "git reset" have been made to work
 better with the sparse index.

* gc/use-repo-settings (2021-10-12) 3 commits
 - gc: perform incremental repack when implictly enabled
 - fsck: verify multi-pack-index when implictly enabled
 - fsck: verify commit graph when implicitly enabled

 It is wrong to read some settings directly from the config
 subsystem, as things like feature.experimental can affect their
 default values.

 which codepaths the helper is used and to do what, and tests to
 protect the fixes.

 + editor: save and reset terminal after calling EDITOR
 + terminal: teach git how to save/restore its terminal settings

 An editor session launched during a Git operation (e.g. during 'git

 has updated to save the terminal state before, and restore it
 after, it spawns an editor.

* es/superproject-aware-submodules (2021-10-14) 4 commits
 - submodule: record superproject gitdir during 'update'
 - submodule: record superproject gitdir during absorbgitdirs
 - introduce submodule.superprojectGitDir record
 - t7400-submodule-basic: modernize inspect() helper

 A configuration variable in a submodule points at the location of
 the superproject it is bound to (RFC).

 Brought back to 'seen' to see if it still plays well with the rest
 of 'seen', without the conflicting ar/submodule-update topic.
