Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'. The topics list the commits in reverse chronological order. ---------------------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * dd/cvsserver (Thu Mar 27 23:18:35 2008 +0100) 7 commits - cvsserver: Use the user part of the email in log and annotate results - cvsserver: Add test for update -p - cvsserver: Implement update -p (print to stdout) - cvsserver: Add a few tests for 'status' command - cvsserver: Do not include status output for subdirectories if -l is passed - cvsserver: Only print the file part of the filename in status header - cvsserver: Respond to the 'editors' and 'watchers' commands The changes seem clean and should affect only locking related client commands, so even though this is a new _feature_, I am inclined to merge this in 1.5.5. Testing by interested parties are encouraged. * mb/prune (Mon Mar 24 23:20:51 2008 -0700) 4 commits + builtin-prune: protect objects listed on the command line + builtin-prune.c: use parse_options() + Add tests for git-prune + parse-options.c: introduce OPT_DATE "git prune $this $that" lost its ability to protect $this and $that from getting pruned when it was rewritten in C; this attempts to resurrect it. This maybe is 1.5.5 material. * jk/add-i-mode (Thu Mar 27 03:32:25 2008 -0400) 2 commits + add--interactive: allow user to choose mode update + add--interactive: ignore mode change in 'p'atch command New feature, will probably be part of the release after 1.5.5 * gp/gitweb (Wed Mar 26 18:11:19 2008 +0000) 1 commit + gitweb: fallback to system-wide config file if default config does not exist New feature, will probably be part of the release after 1.5.5 ---------------------------------------------------------------- [On Hold] * gs/pretty-hexval (Fri Mar 21 10:05:06 2008 -0500) 1 commit + pretty.c: add %x00 format specifier. Adds a generic "insert any byte value" to --pretty=format:<> specifier. New feature, will probably be part of the release after 1.5.5 * jc/send-pack-tell-me-more (Thu Mar 20 00:44:11 2008 -0700) 1 commit - "git push": tellme-more protocol extension Allows common ancestor negotiation for git-push to help people with shared repository workflow in certain minority situations. The lack of protocol support has been bugging me for quite some time, and that was the reason I did this, but because I have met no real user with shared repository workflow who complained on this issue, I think this is not urgent. * jc/test (Thu Feb 21 21:17:54 2008 -0800) 2 commits - tests: convert "cmp" and "cmp -s" to test_cmp - tests: test_cmp helper function This one may be more elaborate, but Jeff's patch is much simpler. * fl/send-email-outside (Fri Mar 14 18:29:30 2008 +0100) 4 commits + send-email: Don't require to be called in a repository + Git.pm: Don't require repository instance for ident + Git.pm: Don't require a repository instance for config + var: Don't require to be in a git repository. People couldn't invoke "git send-email" from outside their repositories, but this series allows them to. I do not think it is urgent, though. This does not look risky, even though it touches Git.pm that is shared with other things. This has been cooking in 'next' for some time and we haven't heard about breakages caused by this. Will probably be the first thing to be merged in 'master' post 1.5.5. * jc/rebase (Sat Mar 15 13:17:42 2008 -0700) 1 commit + rebase [--onto O] A B: omit needless checkout We used to "git checkout B && git rebase A" internally to implement this, which meant the work tree was smudged one time too many. This is probably a safe optimization, but it case after -rc0 and is not really a must-have fix. One of the first after post 1.5.5. * lt/case-insensitive (Sat Mar 22 14:22:44 2008 -0700) 9 commits - Make git-add behave more sensibly in a case-insensitive environment - When adding files to the index, add support for case-independent matches - Make unpack-tree update removed files before any updated files - Make branch merging aware of underlying case-insensitive filsystems - Add 'core.ignorecase' option - Make hash_name_lookup able to do case-independent lookups - Make "index_name_exists()" return the cache_entry it found - Move name hashing functions into a file of its own - Make unpack_trees_options bit flags actual bitfields The beginning of ASCII-only case insensitive filesystem support. * jc/unpack-careful (Fri Mar 7 08:39:53 2008 +0100) 5 commits + t5300: add test for "index-pack --strict" + receive-pack: allow using --strict mode for unpacking objects + unpack-objects: fix --strict handling + t5300: add test for "unpack-objects --strict" + unpack-objects: prevent writing of inconsistent objects This would re-instate the "unpack-objects --strict" but we probably should not do this before 1.5.5. * jc/rename (Fri Mar 7 14:03:19 2008 -0800) 2 commits - diffcore-rename: make file_table available outside exact rename detection + Optimize rename detection for a huge diff * jc/dirstat (Tue Feb 12 17:06:58 2008 -0800) 1 commit - diff: make --dirstat binary-file safe * lh/git-file (Wed Feb 20 23:13:16 2008 +0100) 4 commits - Teach GIT-VERSION-GEN about the .git file - Teach git-submodule.sh about the .git file - Teach resolve_gitlink_ref() about the .git file - Add platform-independent .git "symlink" The idea and the implementation seem Ok, but this leaves distinct feeling that it is a solution still waiting for a user (e.g. "git submodule" enhancements to take advantage of this facility to preserve the subrepository while switching between a revision with a submodule and another before the submodule was bound to the superproject). * nd/dashless (Wed Nov 28 23:21:57 2007 +0700) 1 commit - Move all dashed-form commands to libexecdir Scheduled for 1.6.0. I am not sure if we should merge this to 'next' before 1.5.5. Most active people will be on 'next' and if we have this there, the resulting 1.5.5 release might end up having issues that come from differences this one introduces. * jc/dashless (Sat Dec 1 22:09:22 2007 -0800) 2 commits - Prepare execv_git_cmd() for removal of builtins from the filesystem - git-shell: accept "git foo" form We do not plan to remove git-foo form completely from the filesystem at this point, but git-shell may need to be updated. * jc/sha1-lookup (Sun Dec 30 03:13:27 2007 -0800) 2 commits - sha1-lookup: make selection of 'middle' less aggressive - sha1-lookup: more memory efficient search in sorted list of SHA-1 Micro-optimization whose real world benefit is not proven. * jc/cherry-pick (Wed Feb 20 23:17:06 2008 -0800) 3 commits - WIP: rethink replay merge - Start using replay-tree merge in cherry-pick - revert/cherry-pick: start refactoring call to merge_recursive This is meant to improve cherry-pick's behaviour by not using merge-recursive, but unfortunately has stalled for some time now. * jc/stripspace (Sun Mar 9 00:30:35 2008 -0800) 6 commits - git-am --forge: add Signed-off-by: line for the author - git-am: clean-up Signed-off-by: lines - stripspace: add --log-clean option to clean up signed-off-by: lines - stripspace: use parse_options() - Add "git am -s" test - git-am: refactor code to add signed-off-by line for the committer Just my toy at this moment. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
