What's cooking in git.git (Oct 2024, #09; Fri, 18) -------------------------------------------------- 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). This is the second integration round from the interim maintainer. Some more topics which were marked to graduate to 'master' have done so, and 'next' has some new topics that have moved down. A large handful of topics are awaiting review or discussion, so please take a look at those marked as such below. 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: https://github.com/git/git/ (Note that other usual spots are not updated while Junio is on vacation, including the below): 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://gitlab.com/git-scm/git/ With all the integration branches and topics broken out: https://github.com/ttaylorr/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'] * aa/t7300-modernize (2024-10-09) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at e3a8d7f6c4) + t7300-clean.sh: use test_path_* helper functions for error logging Test modernization. source: <pull.1811.v4.git.1728498122419.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx> * jc/doc-refspec-syntax (2024-10-09) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at 912ed5fae8) + doc: clarify <src> in refspec syntax Doc updates. source: <xmqqy137wtyz.fsf@gitster.g> * kh/checkout-ignore-other-docfix (2024-10-10) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at ed66b60f52) + checkout: refer to other-worktree branch, not ref Doc updates. source: <fcfbcd3868bda75dd0463e04739047e74d239d32.1728585467.git.code@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> * kh/merge-tree-doc (2024-10-09) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at b22c213d6c) + doc: merge-tree: improve example script Docfix. cf. <CABPp-BE=JfoZp19Va-1oF60ADBUibGDwDkFX-Zytx7A3uJ__gg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> source: <c7e0d76e71eef56c6279e0f7e82a2d194f78d2a4.1728492617.git.code@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> * kn/loose-object-layer-wo-global-hash (2024-10-09) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at 99252fb6cc) + loose: don't rely on repository global state Code clean-up. source: <CAOLa=ZRMaw-PAsZ9s0zJ2zp_suMppi=ZrT67B__LU1tWZSvuUQ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> * ng/rebase-merges-branch-name-as-label (2024-10-09) 3 commits (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at a5785fd206) + rebase-merges: try and use branch names as labels + rebase-update-refs: extract load_branch_decorations + load_branch_decorations: fix memory leak with non-static filters "git rebase --rebase-merges" now uses branch names as labels when able. source: <pull.1784.v3.git.git.1728460700.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx> * ps/maintenance-start-crash-fix (2024-10-10) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at c54df41815) + builtin/gc: fix crash when running `git maintenance start` "git maintenance start" crashed due to an uninitialized variable reference, which has been corrected. source: <a5b1433abfd84cb627efc17f52e0d644ee207bb0.1728538282.git.ps@xxxxxx> * tc/bundle-uri-leakfix (2024-10-10) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at 07ac214952) + bundle-uri: plug leak in unbundle_from_file() Leakfix. source: <20241010091249.1895960-1-toon@xxxxxxxxx> * xx/protocol-v2-doc-markup-fix (2024-10-10) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-11 at 37932adca4) + Documentation/gitprotocol-v2.txt: fix a slight inconsistency in format Docfix. source: <pull.1807.git.git.1728566443089.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx> -------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * ak/typofix (2024-10-17) 1 commit + t: fix typos More typofixes. source: <20241017112835.10100-1-algonell@xxxxxxxxx> * jc/optional-path (2024-10-14) 3 commits - parseopt: values of pathname type can be prefixed with :(optional) - config: values of pathname type can be prefixed with :(optional) - t7500: make each piece more independent Teach configuration values of type "pathname" a new ':(optional)' suffix. source: <20241014204427.1712182-1-gitster@xxxxxxxxx> * kh/update-ref (2024-10-16) 6 commits - doc: mutually link update-ref and symbolic-ref - doc: update-ref: discuss symbolic links - doc: update-ref: remove confusing paragraph - doc: update-ref: demote symlink to last section - doc: update-ref: remove safety paragraphs - doc: update-ref: drop “flag” Documentation updates to 'git-update-ref(1)'. source: <cover.1729017728.git.code@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> * ps/ref-filter-sort (2024-10-17) 1 commit - ref-filter: format iteratively with lexicographic refname sorting Teaches the ref-filter machinery to recognize and avoid cases where sorting would be redundant.
