What's cooking in git.git (Oct 2024, #12; Wed, 30) -------------------------------------------------- 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 fifth integration round from the interim maintainer. A large number of topics are currently sitting in 'next' and will likely graduate to 'master' before the end of the week. Regrettably, there continue to be lots of topics that are stuck waiting for more discussion and would benefit from review. Please have a look at any topics that you feel comfortable reviewing and please do so if you find the time. 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'] * co/t6050-pipefix (2024-10-22) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-22 at d377ddbb64) + t6050: avoid pipes with upstream Git commands Avoid losing exit status by having Git command being tested on the upstream side of a pipe. source: <20241022012701.8959-1-chizobajames21@xxxxxxxxx> * kh/submitting-patches (2024-10-21) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-22 at 0882adfc45) + SubmittingPatches: tags -> trailers Docfix. source: <d3a1ba01104da8496d52308c07c5c274fd30b0c2.1729443395.git.code@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> * ks/t4205-fixup (2024-10-21) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-22 at daa85d02c3) + t4205: fix typo in 'NUL termination with --stat' Testfix. source: <20241020191910.31096-1-five231003@xxxxxxxxx> * ps/ref-filter-sort (2024-10-21) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-22 at 6313df7028) + ref-filter: format iteratively with lexicographic refname sorting Teaches the ref-filter machinery to recognize and avoid cases where sorting would be redundant. source: <d23c3e3ee7fdb49fcd05b4f2e52dd2a1cfdc10f2.1729510342.git.ps@xxxxxx> * ps/reftable-strbuf (2024-10-17) 10 commits (merged to 'next' on 2024-10-22 at 469c11aca4) + reftable: handle trivial `reftable_buf` errors + reftable/stack: adapt `stack_filename()` to handle allocation failures + reftable/record: adapt `reftable_record_key()` to handle allocation failures + reftable/stack: adapt `format_name()` to handle allocation failures + t/unit-tests: check for `reftable_buf` allocation errors + reftable/blocksource: adapt interface name + reftable: convert from `strbuf` to `reftable_buf` + reftable/basics: provide new `reftable_buf` interface + reftable: stop using `strbuf_addf()` + reftable: stop using `strbuf_addbuf()` (this branch is used by ps/reftable-detach.)

Comments? I got an impression that this is premature without finishing the discussion on a larger picture. cf. <ZvpZv_fed_su4w2-@xxxxxx> source: <20240910163000.1985723-1-christian.couder@xxxxxxxxx> * sj/ref-contents-check (2024-10-21) 9 commits - ref: add symlink ref content check for files backend - ref: check whether the target of the symref is a ref - ref: add basic symref content check for files backend - ref: add more strict checks for regular refs - ref: port git-fsck(1) regular refs check for files backend - ref: support multiple worktrees check for refs - ref: initialize target name outside of check functions - ref: check the full refname instead of basename - ref: initialize "fsck_ref_report" with zero "git fsck" learned to issue warnings on "curiously formatted" ref contents that have always been taken valid but something Git wouldn't have written itself (e.g., missing terminating end-of-line after the full object name).
