Recent update to the submodule configuration code broke "diff-tree"
by accidentally stopping to read from the index upfront.
* bw/submodule-config-cleanup:
diff-tree: read the index so attribute checks work in bare repositories
Amending commits in git-gui broke the author name that is non-ascii
due to incorrect enconding conversion.
* ls/git-gui-no-double-utf8-author-name:
git-gui: prevent double UTF-8 conversion
An v2.12-era regression in pathspec match logic, which made it look
into submodule tree even when it is not desired, has been fixed.
* bw/pathspec-match-submodule-boundary:
pathspec: only match across submodule boundaries when requested
"git diff" learned a variant of the "--patience" algorithm, to
which the user can specify which 'unique' line to be used as
anchoring points.
* jt/diff-anchored-patience:
diff: support anchoring line(s)
The code internal to the recursive merge strategy was not fully
prepared to see a path that is renamed to try overwriting another
path that is only different in case on case insensitive systems.
This does not matter in the current code, but will start to matter
once the rename detection logic starts taking hints from nearby
paths moving to some directory and moves a new path along with them.
* en/merge-recursive-icase-removal:
merge-recursive: ignore_case shouldn't reject intentional removals
Historically, the diff machinery for rename detection had a
hardcoded limit of 32k paths; this is being lifted to allow users
trade cycles with a (possibly) easier to read result.
* en/rename-progress:
diffcore-rename: make diff-tree -l0 mean -l<large>
sequencer: show rename progress during cherry picks
diff: remove silent clamp of renameLimit
progress: fix progress meters when dealing with lots of work
sequencer: warn when internal merge may be suboptimal due to renameLimit
An internal function that was left for backward compatibility has
been removed, as there is no remaining callers.
* en/remove-stripspace:
strbuf: remove unused stripspace function alias
A regression in the progress eye-candy was fixed.
* jk/progress-delay-fix:
progress: drop delay-threshold code
progress: set default delay threshold to 100%, not 0%
@{-N} in "git checkout @{-N}" may refer to a detached HEAD state,
but the documentation was not clear about it, which has been fixed.
* ks/doc-checkout-previous:
Doc/checkout: checking out using @{-N} can lead to detached state
"git send-email" tries to see if the sendmail program is available
in /usr/lib and /usr/sbin; extend the list of locations to be
checked to also include directories on $PATH.
* fk/sendmail-from-path:
git-send-email: honor $PATH for sendmail binary
"git grep" compiled with libpcre2 sometimes triggered a segfault,
which is being fixed.
* ab/pcre2-grep:
grep: fix segfault under -P + PCRE2 <=10.30 + (*NO_JIT)
test-lib: add LIBPCRE1 & LIBPCRE2 prerequisites
The tagnames "git log --decorate" uses to annotate the commits can
now be limited to subset of available refs with the two additional
options, --decorate-refs[-exclude]=<pattern>.
* ra/decorate-limit-refs:
log: add option to choose which refs to decorate
An infrastructure to define what hash function is used in Git is
introduced, and an effort to plumb that throughout various
codepaths has been started.
* bc/hash-algo:
repository: fix a sparse 'using integer as NULL pointer' warning
Switch empty tree and blob lookups to use hash abstraction
Integrate hash algorithm support with repo setup
Add structure representing hash algorithm
setup: expose enumerated repo info
A regression was introduced in 557a5998d (submodule: remove
gitmodules_config, 2017-08-03) to how attribute processing was handled
in bare repositories when running the diff-tree command.
By default the attribute system will first try to read ".gitattribute"
files from the working tree and then falls back to reading them from the
index if there isn't a copy checked out in the worktree. Prior to
557a5998d the index was read as a side effect of the call to
'gitmodules_config()' which ensured that the index was already populated
before entering the attribute subsystem.
Since the call to 'gitmodules_config()' was removed the index is no
longer being read so when the attribute system tries to read from the
in-memory index it doesn't find any ".gitattribute" entries effectively
ignoring any configured attributes.
Fix this by explicitly reading the index during the setup of diff-tree.

The ssh-variant 'simple' introduced earlier broke existing
installations by not passing --port/-4/-6 and not diagnosing an
attempt to pass these as an error. Instead, default to
automatically detect how compatible the GIT_SSH/GIT_SSH_COMMAND is
to OpenSSH convention and then error out an invocation to make it
easier to diagnose connection errors.
* jn/ssh-wrappers:
connect: correct style of C-style comment
ssh: 'simple' variant does not support --port
ssh: 'simple' variant does not support -4/-6
ssh: 'auto' variant to select between 'ssh' and 'simple'
connect: split ssh option computation to its own function
connect: split ssh command line options into separate function
connect: split git:// setup into a separate function
connect: move no_fork fallback to git_tcp_connect
ssh test: make copy_ssh_wrapper_as clean up after itself
A new mechanism to upgrade the wire protocol in place is proposed
and demonstrated that it works with the older versions of Git
without harming them.
* bw/protocol-v1:
Documentation: document Extra Parameters
ssh: introduce a 'simple' ssh variant
i5700: add interop test for protocol transition
http: tell server that the client understands v1
connect: tell server that the client understands v1
connect: teach client to recognize v1 server response
upload-pack, receive-pack: introduce protocol version 1
daemon: recognize hidden request arguments
protocol: introduce protocol extension mechanisms
pkt-line: add packet_write function
connect: in ref advertisement, shallows are last
In addition to "git stash -m message", the command learned to
accept "git stash -mmessage" form.
* ph/stash-save-m-option-fix:
stash: learn to parse -m/--message like commit does
Internaly we use 0{40} as a placeholder object name to signal the
codepath that there is no such object (e.g. the fast-forward check
while "git fetch" stores a new remote-tracking ref says "we know
there is no 'old' thing pointed at by the ref, as we are creating
it anew" by passing 0{40} for the 'old' side), and expect that a
codepath to locate an in-core object to return NULL as a sign that
the object does not exist. A look-up for an object that does not
exist however is quite costly with a repository with large number
of packfiles. This access pattern has been optimized.
* jk/fewer-pack-rescan:
sha1_file: fast-path null sha1 as a missing object
everything_local: use "quick" object existence check
p5551: add a script to test fetch pack-dir rescans
t/perf/lib-pack: use fast-import checkpoint to create packs
p5550: factor out nonsense-pack creation
The build procedure has been taught to avoid some unnecessary
instability in the build products.
* jn/reproducible-build:
generate-cmdlist: avoid non-deterministic output
git-gui: sort entries in optimized tclIndex
The shell completion (in contrib/) learned that "git pull" can take
the "--autostash" option.
* ac/complete-pull-autostash:
completion: add --autostash and --no-autostash to pull
"git config --expiry-date gc.reflogexpire" can read "2.weeks" from
the configuration and report it as a timestamp, just like "--int"
would read "1k" and report 1024, to help consumption by scripts.
* hm/config-parse-expiry-date:
config: add --expiry-date
"git branch --set-upstream" has been deprecated and (sort of)
removed, as "--set-upstream-to" is the preferred one these days.
The documentation still had "--set-upstream" listed on its
synopsys section, which has been corrected.
* tz/branch-doc-remove-set-upstream:
branch doc: remove --set-upstream from synopsis
* cc/perf-run-config:
perf: store subsection results in "test-results/$GIT_PERF_SUBSECTION/"
perf/run: show name of rev being built
perf/run: add run_subsection()
perf/run: update get_var_from_env_or_config() for subsections
perf/run: add get_subsections()
perf/run: add calls to get_var_from_env_or_config()
perf/run: add GIT_PERF_DIRS_OR_REVS
perf/run: add get_var_from_env_or_config()
perf/run: add '--config' option to the 'run' script
"git checkout --recursive" may overwrite and rewind the history of
the branch that happens to be checked out in submodule
repositories, which might not be desirable. Detach the HEAD but
still allow the recursive checkout to succeed in such a case.
* sb/submodule-recursive-checkout-detach-head:
Documentation/checkout: clarify submodule HEADs to be detached
recursive submodules: detach HEAD from new state
Clarify and enhance documentation for "merge-base --fork-point", as
it was clear what it computed but not why/what for.
* jc/merge-base-fork-point-doc:
merge-base --fork-point doc: clarify the example and failure modes
A few scripts (both in production and tests) incorrectly redirected
their error output. These have been corrected.
* tz/redirect-fix:
rebase: fix stderr redirect in apply_autostash()
t/lib-gpg: fix gpgconf stderr redirect to /dev/null
"git notes" sent its error message to its standard output stream,
which was corrected.
* tz/notes-error-to-stderr:
notes: send "Automatic notes merge failed" messages to stderr
The three-way merge performed by "git cherry-pick" was confused
when a new submodule was added in the meantime, which has been
fixed (or "papered over").
* sb/test-cherry-pick-submodule-getting-in-a-way:
merge-recursive: handle addition of submodule on our side of history
t/3512: demonstrate unrelated submodule/file conflict as cherry-pick failure
The sequencer machinery (used by "git cherry-pick A..B", and "git
rebase -i", among other things) would have lost a commit if stopped
due to an unlockable index file, which has been fixed.
* pw/sequencer-recover-from-unlockable-index:
sequencer: reschedule pick if index can't be locked
"git apply --inaccurate-eof" when used with "--ignore-space-change"
triggered an internal sanity check, which has been fixed.
* rs/apply-inaccurate-eof-with-incomplete-line:
apply: update line lengths for --inaccurate-eof
Command line completion (in contrib/) has been taught about the
"--copy" option of "git branch".
* tz/complete-branch-copy:
completion: add '--copy' option to 'git branch'
