What's cooking in git.git (Jun 2024, #05; Fri, 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', and
aren't considered "accepted" at all and may be annotated with an URL
to a message that raises issues but they are no means exhaustive.  A
topic without enough support may be discarded after a long period of
no activity (of course they can be resubmit when new interests
arise).

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-scm/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/

* jk/am-retry (2024-06-06) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2024-06-10 at 4d62361bc7)
 + test-terminal: drop stdin handling
 + am: add explicit "--retry" option

 "git am" has a safety feature to prevent it from starting a new
 session when there already is a session going.  It reliably
 triggers when a mbox is given on the command line, but it has to
 rely on the tty-ness of the standard input.  Add an explicit way to
 opt out of this safety with a command line option.

* tb/precompose-getcwd (2024-05-31) 1 commit
 - macOS: ls-files path fails if path of workdir is NFD

 We forgot to normalize the result of getcwd() to NFC on macOS where
 all other paths are normalized, which has been corrected.  This still
 does not address the case where core.precomposeUnicode configuration
 is not defined globally.

* pw/rebase-i-error-message (2024-05-30) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2024-06-13 at dbec12cfda)
 + rebase -i: improve error message when picking merge
 + rebase -i: pass struct replay_opts to parse_insn_line()

 When the user adds to "git rebase -i" instruction to "pick" a merge
 commit, the error experience is not pleasant.  Such an error is now
 caught earlier in the process that parses the todo list.

 Will merge to 'master'.

* ie/config-includeif-hostname (2024-03-19) 2 commits
 - config: learn the "hostname:" includeIf condition
 - t: add a test helper for getting hostname

 The conditional inclusion mechanism for configuration files learned
 to switch on the hostname.

 Expecting a reroll.

 . SQUASH??? get rid of apparent debugging crufts

 . pager: include stdint.h because uintmax_t is used

 Split libgit.a out to a separate git-std-lib tor easier reuse.

* bk/complete-dirname-for-am-and-format-patch (2024-01-12) 1 commit
 - completion: dir-type optargs for am, format-patch

 Command line completion support (in contrib/) has been
 updated for a few commands to complete directory names where a
 directory name is expected.

 Expecting a reroll.

* bk/complete-send-email (2024-01-12) 1 commit
 - completion: don't complete revs when --no-format-patch

 Command line completion support (in contrib/) has been taught to
 avoid offering revision names as candidates to "git send-email" when
 the command is used to send pre-generated files.

 Expecting a reroll.

 The Bloom filter used for path limited history traversal was broken
 on systems whose "char" is unsigned; update the implementation and
 bump the format version to 2.

 Waiting for a final ack?

[Discarded]

* ps/ci-use-Og-in-some-jobs (2024-06-10) 2 commits
 . ci: compile "linux-gcc-default" job with -Og
 . Makefile: add ability to append to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS

 Compile with -Og, which is different from the usual -O2, in one CI
 job, to see if we can get more warning coverage.

 Discarded.
 False positives in "-Og -Wall -Werror" are too annoying.
 source: <cover.1718001244.git.ps@xxxxxx>


* ds/doc-config-reflow (2024-03-14) 1 commit
 . config.txt: perform some minor reformatting

 Reflow a paragraph in the documentation source without any effect
 to the formatted text.

 Discarded.
 source: <97bdaf075bf5a68554cca1731eca78aff2662907.1710444774.git.dsimic@xxxxxxxxxxx>


* ts/archive-prefix-with-add-virtual-file (2024-05-17) 1 commit
 . archive: make --add-virtual-file honor --prefix

 The "--add-virtual-file" option of "git archive", added primarily
 to help "git diagnose", has always ignored the "--prefix", but
 been documented to honor it.

 Discarded.
 source: <pull.1719.v2.git.git.1715967267420.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx>


* cc/upload-pack-missing-action (2024-05-24) 3 commits
 . upload-pack: allow configuring a missing-action
 . pack-objects: use the missing action API
 . rev-list: refactor --missing=<missing-action>

 Allow a server S that is a lazy clone of another repository X to
 respond to a request by C that is a lazy clone of S in a way that
 it omits objects it itself does not have (and has to be lazily
 fetched from X).

 I would say this is a terribly irresponsive design, especially
 there is no negociation for S to learn if the objects it is going
 to omit is obtainable by C from elsewhere.

 Discarded.

* ew/khash-to-khashl (2024-03-28) 3 commits
 . khashl: fix ensemble lookups on empty table
 . treewide: switch to khashl for memory savings
 . list-objects-filter: use kh_size API

 The hashtable library "khash.h" has been replaced with "khashl.h"
 that has better memory usage characteristics.

 Discarded.

* tb/pseudo-merge-reachability-bitmap-fixes (2024-06-06) 2 commits
 - pack-bitmap.c: ensure pseudo-merge offset reads are bounded
 - Documentation/technical/bitmap-format.txt: add missing position table
 (this branch uses tb/pseudo-merge-reachability-bitmap.)

 Two rather straight-forward fixes to the base topic that is cooking
 in 'next'.  Once people find it satisfactory, I plan to merge them
 into the base topic.

 Merged into the base topic.
