"git checkout-index" did not consistently signal an error with its
exit status.
* jk/checkout-index-errors:
checkout-index: propagate errors to exit code
checkout-index: drop error message from empty --stage=all
"git diff" and other commands that share the same machinery to
compare with working tree files have been taught to take advantage
of the fsmonitor data when available.
* nk/diff-files-vs-fsmonitor:
p7519-fsmonitor: add a git add benchmark
p7519-fsmonitor: refactor to avoid code duplication
perf lint: add make test-lint to perf tests
t/perf: add fsmonitor perf test for git diff
t/perf/p7519-fsmonitor.sh: warm cache on first git status
t/perf/README: elaborate on output format
fsmonitor: use fsmonitor data in `git diff`
More preliminary tests have been added to document desired outcome
of various "directory rename" situations.
* en/dir-rename-tests:
t6423: more involved rules for renaming directories into each other
t6423: update directory rename detection tests with new rule
t6423: more involved directory rename test
directory-rename-detection.txt: update references to regression tests
Adjust tests so that they won't scream when the default initial
branch name is changed to 'main'.
* js/default-branch-name-part-4-minus-1:
t1400: prepare for `main` being default branch name
tests: prepare aligned mentions of the default branch name
t9902: prepare a test for the upcoming default branch name
t3200: prepare for `main` being shorter than `master`
t5703: adjust a test case for the upcoming default branch name
t6200: adjust suppression pattern to also match "main"
tests: start moving to a different default main branch name
t9801: use `--` in preparation for default branch rename
fmt-merge-msg: also suppress "into main" by default
"git diff" family of commands learned the "-I<regex>" option to
ignore hunks whose changed lines all match the given pattern.
* mk/diff-ignore-regex:
diff: add -I<regex> that ignores matching changes
merge-base, xdiff: zero out xpparam_t structures
"git apply -R" did not handle patches that touch the same path
twice correctly, which has been corrected. This is most relevant
in a patch that changes a path from a regular file to a symbolic
link (and vice versa).
* jt/apply-reverse-twice:
apply: when -R, also reverse list of sections
"git rebase --rebase-merges" did not correctly pass --gpg-sign
command line option to underlying "git merge" when replaying a merge
using non-default merge strategy or when replaying an octopus merge
(because replaying a two-head merge with the default strategy was
done in a separate codepath, the problem did not trigger for most
users), which has been corrected.
* sc/sequencer-gpg-octopus:
t3435: add tests for rebase -r GPG signing
sequencer: pass explicit --no-gpg-sign to merge
sequencer: fix gpg option passed to merge subcommand
Our test scripts can be told to run only individual pieces while
skipping others with the "--run=..." option; they were taught to
take a substring of test title, in addition to numbers, to name the
test pieces to run.
* en/test-selector:
test-lib: reduce verbosity of skipped tests
t6006, t6012: adjust tests to use 'setup' instead of synonyms
test-lib: allow selecting tests by substring/glob with --run
Add a sample 'push-to-checkout' hook, that performs the same as
what the built-in default action does.
* as/sample-push-to-checkout-hook:
hook: add sample template for push-to-checkout
"git credential' didn't honor the core.askPass configuration
variable (among other things), which has been corrected.
* tk/credential-config:
credential: load default config
Document that the meaning of a Signed-off-by trailer can vary from
project to project in the end-user documentation, and clarify what
it means to this project.
* bk/sob-dco:
Documentation: stylistically normalize references to Signed-off-by:
SubmittingPatches: clarify DCO is our --signoff rule
Documentation: clarify and expand description of --signoff
doc: preparatory clean-up of description on the sign-off option
Test-coverage enhancement of running commit-graph task "git
maintenance" as needed led to discovery and fix of a bug.
* ds/maintenance-commit-graph-auto-fix:
maintenance: core.commitGraph=false prevents writes
maintenance: test commit-graph auto condition
When "git commit-graph" detects the same commit recorded more than
once while it is merging the layers, it used to die. The code now
ignores all but one of them and continues.
* ds/commit-graph-merging-fix:
commit-graph: don't write commit-graph when disabled
commit-graph: ignore duplicates when merging layers
A test helper "test_cmp A B" was taught to diagnose missing files A
or B as a bug in test, but some tests legitimately wanted to notice
a failure to even create file B as an error, in addition to leaving
the expected result in it, and were misdiagnosed as a bug. This
has been corrected.
* es/test-cmp-typocatcher:
Revert "test_cmp: diagnose incorrect arguments"
"git fast-import" wasted a lot of memory when many marks were in use.
* jk/fast-import-marks-alloc-fix:
fast-import: fix over-allocation of marks storage
The side-band status report can be sent at the same time as the
primary payload multiplexed, but the demultiplexer on the receiving
end incorrectly split a single status report into two, which has
been corrected.
* js/avoid-split-sideband-message:
test-pkt-line: drop colon from sideband identity
sideband: report unhandled incomplete sideband messages as bugs
sideband: avoid reporting incomplete sideband messages
GitHub Actions automated test improvement to skip tests on a tree
identical to what has already been tested.
* js/ci-ghwf-dedup-tests:
ci: make the "skip-if-redundant" check more defensive
ci: work around old records of GitHub runs
"git resurrect" script (in contrib/) learned that the object names
may be longer than 40-hex depending on the hash function in use.
* dl/resurrect-update-for-sha256:
contrib/git-resurrect.sh: use hash-agnostic OID pattern
contrib/git-resurrect.sh: indent with tabs
Micro clean-up.
* cm/t7xxx-cleanup:
t7102: prepare expected output inside test_expect_* block
t7201: put each command on a separate line
t7201: use 'git -C' to avoid subshell
t7102,t7201: remove whitespace after redirect operator
t7102,t7201: remove unnecessary blank spaces in test body
t7101,t7102,t7201: modernize test formatting
In 2.29, "--committer-date-is-author-date" option of "rebase" and
"am" subcommands lost the e-mail address by mistake, which has been
corrected.
* jk/committer-date-is-author-date-fix:
rebase: fix broken email with --committer-date-is-author-date
am: fix broken email with --committer-date-is-author-date
t3436: check --committer-date-is-author-date result more carefully
"git checkout" learned to use checkout.guess configuration variable
and enable/disable its "--[no-]guess" option accordingly.
* dl/checkout-guess:
checkout: learn to respect checkout.guess
Documentation/config/checkout: replace sq with backticks
"git checkout -p A...B [-- <path>]" did not work, even though the
same command without "-p" correctly used the merge-base between
commits A and B.
* dl/checkout-p-merge-base:
t2016: add a NEEDSWORK about the PERL prerequisite
add-patch: add NEEDSWORK about comparing commits
Doc: document "A...B" form for <tree-ish> in checkout and switch
builtin/checkout: fix `git checkout -p HEAD...` bug
"git clone" learned clone.defaultremotename configuration variable
to customize what nickname to use to call the remote the repository
was cloned from.
* sb/clone-origin:
clone: allow configurable default for `-o`/`--origin`
clone: read new remote name from remote_name instead of option_origin
clone: validate --origin option before use
refs: consolidate remote name validation
remote: add tests for add and rename with invalid names
clone: use more conventional config/option layering
clone: add tests for --template and some disallowed option pairs
"git push --force-with-lease[=<ref>]" can easily be misused to lose
commits unless the user takes good care of their own "git fetch".
A new option "--force-if-includes" attempts to ensure that what is
being force-pushed was created after examining the commit at the
tip of the remote ref that is about to be force-replaced.
* sk/force-if-includes:
t, doc: update tests, reference for "--force-if-includes"
push: parse and set flag for "--force-if-includes"
push: add reflog check for "--force-if-includes"
"git worktree list" now shows if each worktree is locked. This
possibly may open us to show other kinds of states in the future.
* rs/worktree-list-show-locked:
worktree: teach `list` to annotate locked worktree
