Simplify the procedure to generate unicode table.
* bb/update-unicode-table:
update_unicode.sh: delete the command group
update_unicode.sh: make the output structure visible
update_unicode.sh: shorten uniset invocation path
update_unicode.sh: set UNICODE_DIR only once
update_unicode.sh: simplify output capture
"git send-email" normally identifies itself via X-Mailer: header
in the message it sends out. A new command line flag allows the
user to squelch the header.
* lh/send-email-hide-x-mailer:
test/send-email: --[no-]xmailer tests
send-email: add --[no-]xmailer option
"git send-email" did not handle RFC 2047 encoded headers quite
right.
* rd/send-email-2047-fix:
send-email: handle adjacent RFC 2047-encoded words properly
send-email: align RFC 2047 decoding more closely with the spec
The top-of-the-file instruction for completion scripts (in contrib/)
did not name the files correctly.
* pd/completion-filenames-fix:
Update documentation occurrences of filename .sh
"git add -i" did not notice when the interactive command input
stream went away and kept asking.
* jk/add-i-read-error:
add--interactive: leave main loop on read error
Traditionally we tried to avoid interpreting date strings given by
the user as future dates, e.g. GIT_COMMITTER_DATE=2014-12-10 when
used early November 2014 was taken as "October 12, 2014" because it
is likely that a date in the future, December 10, is a mistake.
Loosen this and do not tiebreak by future-ness of the date when
(1) ISO-like format is used, and
(2) the string can make sense interpreted as both y-m-d and y-d-m.
* jk/approxidate-avoid-y-d-m-over-future-dates:
approxidate: allow ISO-like dates far in the future
pass TIME_DATE_NOW to approxidate future-check
Newer libCurl knows how to talk IMAP; "git imap-send" has been
updated to use this instead of a hand-rolled OpenSSL calls.
* br/imap-send-via-libcurl:
git-imap-send: use libcurl for implementation
The lockfile API can get confused which file to clean up when the
process moved the $cwd after creating a lockfile.
* nd/lockfile-absolute:
lockfile.c: store absolute path
The get_merge_bases*() API was easy to misuse by careless
copy&paste coders, leaving object flags tainted in the commits that
needed to be traversed.
* jc/merge-bases:
get_merge_bases(): always clean-up object flags
bisect: clean flags after checking merge bases
The commented output used to blindly add a SP before the payload
line, resulting in "# \t<indented text>\n" when the payload began
with a HT. Instead, produce "#\t<indented text>\n".
* jc/strbuf-add-lines-avoid-sp-ht-sequence:
strbuf_add_commented_lines(): avoid SP-HT sequence in commented lines
The report from "git checkout" on a branch that builds on another
local branch by setting its branch.*.merge to branch name (not a
full refname) incorrectly said that the upstream is gone.
* jc/checkout-local-track-report:
checkout: report upstream correctly even with loosely defined branch.*.merge
"git update-ref --stdin"'s verify command did not work well when
<oldvalue>, which is documented as optional, was missing.
* mh/update-ref-verify:
update-ref: fix "verify" command with missing <oldvalue>
t1400: add some more tests of "update-ref --stdin"'s verify command
"git-prompt" (in contrib/) used a variable from the global scope,
possibly contaminating end-user's namespace.
* jg/prompt-localize-temporary:
git-prompt.sh: make $f local to __git_eread()
Recent GPG changes the keyring format and drops support for RFC1991
formatted signatures, breaking our existing tests.
* ch/new-gpg-drops-rfc-1991:
tests: make comment on GPG keyring match the code
tests: squelch noise from GPG machinery set-up
tests: replace binary GPG keyrings with ASCII-armored keys
tests: skip RFC1991 tests for gnupg 2.1
tests: create gpg homedir on the fly
Git did not correctly read an overlong refname from a packed refs
file.
* jk/read-packed-refs-without-path-max:
read_packed_refs: use skip_prefix instead of static array
read_packed_refs: pass strbuf to parse_ref_line
read_packed_refs: use a strbuf for reading lines
"git push" and "git fetch" did not communicate an overlong refname
correctly.
* jk/always-allow-large-packets:
pkt-line: allow writing of LARGE_PACKET_MAX buffers
"diff-highlight" filter (in contrib/) allows its color output
to be customized via configuration variables.
* jk/colors:
parse_color: drop COLOR_BACKGROUND macro
diff-highlight: allow configurable colors
parse_color: recognize "no$foo" to clear the $foo attribute
parse_color: support 24-bit RGB values
parse_color: refactor color storage
New tag object format validation added in 2.2 showed garbage
after a tagname it reported in its error message.
* js/fsck-tag-validation:
index-pack: terminate object buffers with NUL
fsck: properly bound "invalid tag name" error message
Fixes long-standing misunderstanding of what assume-unchanged is
about. Some text near what is removed by the bottom patch may also
have to be removed.
* po/doc-assume-unchanged:
gitignore.txt: do not suggest assume-unchanged
doc: make clear --assume-unchanged's user contract
"git branch -d" (delete) and "git branch -m" (move) learned to
honor "-f" (force) flag; unlike many other subcommands, the way to
force these have been with separate "-D/-M" options, which was
inconsistent.
* mg/branch-d-m-f:
branch: allow -f with -m and -d
t3200-branch: test -M
The code that reads the reflog from the newer to the older entries
did not handle an entry that crosses a boundary of block it uses to
read them correctly.
* jk/for-each-reflog-ent-reverse:
for_each_reflog_ent_reverse: turn leftover check into assertion
for_each_reflog_ent_reverse: fix newlines on block boundaries
API simplification.
* sb/string-list:
string_list: remove string_list_insert_at_index() from its API
mailmap: use higher level string list functions
string_list: document string_list_(insert,lookup)
Credential helpers are asked in turn until one of them give
positive response, which is cumbersome to turn off when you need to
run Git in an automated setting. The credential helper interface
learned to allow a helper to say "stop, don't ask other helpers."
Also GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT environment can be set to false to disable
our built-in prompt mechanism for passwords.
* jk/credential-quit:
prompt: respect GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT to disable terminal prompts
credential: let helpers tell us to quit
Long overdue departure from the assumption that S_IFMT is shared by
everybody made in 2005.
* dm/compat-s-ifmt-for-zos:
compat: convert modes to use portable file type values
"git new-workdir" (in contrib/) can be used to populate an empty
and existing directory now.
* ps/new-workdir-into-empty-directory:
git-new-workdir: don't fail if the target directory is empty
"git ls-tree" does not support path selection based on negative
pathspecs, but did not error out when negative pathspecs are given.
* nd/ls-tree-pathspec:
t3102: style modernization
t3102: document that ls-tree does not yet support negated pathspec
ls-tree: disable negative pathspec because it's not supported
ls-tree: remove path filtering logic in show_tree
tree.c: update read_tree_recursive callback to pass strbuf as base
