What's cooking in git.git (Jan 2023, #02; Fri, 6)

[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', and aren't
considered "accepted" at all.  A topic without enough support may be
discarded after a long period of no activity.

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:

* ab/no-more-git-global-super-prefix (2022-12-26) 9 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2022-12-28 at 126b1fbad1)
 + read-tree: add "--super-prefix" option, eliminate global
 + submodule--helper: convert "{update,clone}" to their own "--super-prefix"
 + submodule--helper: convert "status" to its own "--super-prefix"
 + submodule--helper: convert "sync" to its own "--super-prefix"

 Stop using "git --super-prefix" and narrow the scope of its use to
 the submodule--helper.

* jt/avoid-lazy-fetch-commits (2022-12-15) 4 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2022-12-28 at 35276d17e2)
 + commit: don't lazy-fetch commits
 + object-file: emit corruption errors when detected
 + object-file: refactor map_loose_object_1()
 + object-file: remove OBJECT_INFO_IGNORE_LOOSE

 Even in a repository with promisor remote, it is useless to
 attempt to lazily attempt fetching an object that is expected to be
 commit, because no "filter" mode omits commit objects.  Take
 advantage of this assumption to fail fast on errors.

* rs/use-enhanced-bre-on-macos (2023-01-04) 1 commit
 - grep: use REG_ENHANCED on macOS

 Newer regex library macOS stopped enabling GNU-like enhanced BRE,
 where '\(A\|B\)' works as alternation, unless explicitly asked with
 the REG_ENHANCED flag.  "git grep" now can be compiled to do so, to
 retain the old behaviour.
