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). As we have been accumulating many small fixes on the 'master' front, I merged them to 'maint' and tagged the result as Git 2.46.1. I expect Git 2.46.2, primarily with CI fixes and not much more, to follow shortly. 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/ https://github.com/gitster/git-htmldocs.git/ Release tarballs are available at: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ -------------------------------------------------- [Graduated to 'master'] * bl/trailers-and-incomplete-last-line-fix (2024-09-06) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-09-09 at a09f0889bb) + interpret-trailers: handle message without trailing newline The interpret-trailers command failed to recognise the end of the message when the commit log ends in an incomplete line. source: <20240906145743.2059405-1-brianmlyles@xxxxxxxxx> * ds/doc-wholesale-disabling-advice-messages (2024-09-06) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-09-07 at a52a31f161) + advice: recommend GIT_ADVICE=0 for tools The environment GIT_ADVICE has been intentionally kept undocumented to discourage its use by interactive users.
