What's cooking in git.git (topics)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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.

Caution. "next" has been rebuilt with the remaining topics on top of
"master".

A rough timeline from now on.

 * Brown paper back fixes, if any, for 1.5.5.1 (2008-04-16).

 * Discussion and review on new feature and enhancement patch series
   begins.  Please resubmit things that you were cooking in your head
   during 1.5.5-rc period after cleaning up and retesting.

 * 1.5.6 merge window closes (2008-05-14).

 * Fixes of 'master' continues; 1.5.6-rc0 gets tagged (2008-05-21).

 * 1.5.6 Final (2008-06-08).

[New Topics]

* mk/color (Wed Apr 9 21:32:06 2008 +0200) 1 commit
 + Use color.ui variable in scripts too

* jk/remote-default-show (Wed Apr 9 11:15:51 2008 -0400) 1 commit
 + git-remote: show all remotes with "git remote show"

* jc/terminator-separator (Mon Apr 7 17:11:34 2008 -0700) 1 commit
 + log: teach "terminator" vs "separator" mode to "--pretty=format"

* js/decorate (Mon Apr 7 14:41:12 2008 +0100) 2 commits
 - pretty=format: Add %d to show decoration
 - decorate: use "const struct object"

 + git-fetch: always show status of non-tracking-ref fetches

* py/submodule (Sat Apr 12 23:05:33 2008 +0800) 3 commits
 + builtin-status: Add tests for submodule summary

[Graduated to "master"]

[Actively Cooking]

* sg/merge-options (Sun Apr 6 03:23:47 2008 +0200) 6 commits
 - merge: remove deprecated summary and diffstat options and config
   variables
 + merge, pull: add '--(no-)log' command line option
 + fmt-merge-msg: add '--(no-)log' options and 'merge.log' config
   variable
 + add 'merge.stat' config variable
 + merge, pull: introduce '--(no-)stat' option
 + doc: moved merge.* config variables into separate merge-config.txt

I fixed its too-eager deprecation.  The last one needs to be held back, as
it actually removes the support for features that the main part of the
series deprecates, until 1.6.0 or later.

* jc/blame (Wed Apr 2 22:17:53 2008 -0700) 5 commits
 + git-blame --reverse
 + builtin-blame.c: allow more than 16 parents
 + builtin-blame.c: move prepare_final() into a separate function.
 + rev-list --children
 + revision traversal: --children option

The blame that finds where each line in the original lines moved to.

* jc/lstat (Sun Mar 30 12:39:25 2008 -0700) 2 commits
 + diff-files: mark an index entry we know is up-to-date as such
 + write_index(): optimize ce_smudge_racily_clean_entry() calls with
   CE_UPTODATE

Further reduce redundant lstat(2) calls during "git status" and other
common operations.

* mv/defer-gc (Wed Apr 2 21:35:11 2008 +0200) 3 commits
 + contrib/hooks: add an example pre-auto-gc hook
 + Documentation/hooks: add pre-auto-gc hook
 + git-gc --auto: add pre-auto-gc hook

A new hook to stop "git gc --auto" from running.

* 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.  There recently was a problem report that had a scent of this
issue which turned out to be a false alarm (it was about http-push which
does not do the native pack protocol optimization and the reporter was
pushing into an empty repository which needs full transfer anyway).

* jc/dirstat (Tue Feb 12 17:06:58 2008 -0800) 1 commit
 + diff: make --dirstat binary-file safe

The current "dirstat" does totally wrong thing when the set of files
changed includes a binary one.  This uses the same similarity evaluation
code as rename heuristics uses to treat text and binary the same way.

* 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 case insensitive filesystem support, currently
ASCII-only.

* 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).

* 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, so let's prove
it or revert it by giving it a bit more exposure.

----------------------------------------------------------------
[On Hold]

* bc/filter-branch (Wed Mar 26 10:47:09 2008 -0500) 1 commit
 - filter-branch.sh: support nearly proper tag name filtering

Instead of discarding signed tags, this demotes them to simply annotated,
which is technically not that different from signed tags.

* 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.

* jc/rename-file-table (Fri Mar 7 14:03:19 2008 -0800) 1 commit
 - diffcore-rename: make file_table available outside exact rename
   detection

* nd/dashless (Wed Nov 28 23:21:57 2007 +0700) 1 commit
 - Move all dashed-form commands to libexecdir

Scheduled for 1.6.0.

* 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/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/lstat-debug (Thu Mar 27 16:56:53 2008 -0700) 3 commits
 - lstat: introduce a wrapper xlstat

* 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.
