This is probably the first issue of the "What's cooking" report, in which all topics have some sort of description. That's a small achievement, at least for me. Even better, each and every topic is annotated with some sort of verdict (like "Will discard", "Expecting a reroll", "Will merge to 'next'?" etc.). There is no topic in the "Undecided" category when this report is fed to "cook -w" script (found in the 'todo' branch). A handful of topics are added to 'next', and we have about 40 topics cooking there. For them, the future is automated---they spend about a week in 'next', and if we find issues in them, we incrementally improve them, or get merged to 'master'. Then we have about a dozen topics that are marked for 'next' (please raise your hand if you have objection before a real damage is done), and 8 more that may be ready for 'next' (please raise your hand if you want to nudge them in either direction, for or against). 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 few topics for regression fixes have been merged to 'next' and will be merged to 'master' shortly. There are many topics listed as "New" that are in 'seen', but I haven't read many of them (and I shouldn't have anyway, before dealing with regression fixes) and haven't gave any summary comments in this report, either, yet. 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/cat-file (2021-11-29) 10 commits - cat-file: use GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE in --(textconv|filters) - object-name.c: don't have GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE imply *_QUIETLY - cat-file: correct and improve usage information - cat-file: fix remaining usage bugs - cat-file: make --batch-all-objects a CMDMODE - cat-file: move "usage" variable to cmd_cat_file() - cat-file docs: fix SYNOPSIS and "-h" output - parse-options API: add a usage_msg_optf() - cat-file tests: test messaging on bad objects/paths - cat-file tests: test bad usage Assorted updates to "git cat-file", especially "-h".
