"git clone --recurse-submodules" learned to set up the submodules
to ignore commit object names recorded in the superproject gitlink
and instead use the commits that happen to be at the tip of the
remote-tracking branches from the get-go, by passing the new
"--remote-submodules" option.
* ba/clone-remote-submodules:

"git merge --squash" is designed to update the working tree and the

by adding the "--commit" option; the command now refuses to work
when both options are given.
* vv/merge-squash-with-explicit-commit:

A "merge -c" instruction during "git rebase --rebase-merges" should

The way of specifying the path to find dynamic libraries at runtime
has been simplified. The old default to pass -R/path/to/dir has been
replaced with the new default to pass -Wl,-rpath,/path/to/dir,

In recent versions of Git, per-worktree refs are exposed in
refs/worktrees/<wtname>/ hierarchy, which means that worktree names
must be a valid refname component. The code now sanitizes the names
given to worktrees, to make sure these refs are well-formed.

The "git fast-export/import" pair has been taught to handle commits

A relative pathname given to "git init --template=<path> <repo>"
ought to be relative to the directory "git init" gets invoked in,
but it instead was made relative to the repository, which has been
corrected.

Since "git send-email" learned to take 'auto' as the value for the
transfer-encoding, it by mistake stopped honoring the values given
to the configuration variables sendemail.transferencoding and/or
sendemail.<ident>.transferencoding. This has been corrected to
(finally) redoing the order of setting the default, reading the
configuration and command line options.
* ab/send-email-transferencoding-fix:

Calculating the sum of two array indexes to find the midpoint between
them can overflow, i.e. code like this is unsafe for big arrays:
mid = (first + last) >> 1;
Make sure the intermediate value stays within the boundaries instead,
like this:
mid = first + ((last - first) >> 1);
The loop condition of the binary search makes sure that 'last' is
always greater than 'first', so this is safe as long as 'first' is
not negative. And that can be verified easily using the pre-context
of each change, except for name-hash.c, so add an assertion to that
effect there.
The unsafe calculations were found with:
git grep '(.*+.*) *>> *1'
This is a continuation of 19716b21a4 (cleanup: fix possible overflow
errors in binary search, 2017-10-08).

Commit fecc6f3a68 ("add -p: adjust offsets of subsequent hunks when one is
skipped", 2018-03-01) fixed adding hunks in the correct place when a
previous hunk has been skipped. However it did not address patches that
are applied in reverse. In that case we need to adjust the pre-image
offset so that when apply reverses the patch the post-image offset is
adjusted correctly. We subtract rather than add the delta as the patch
is reversed (the easiest way to think about it is to consider a hunk of
deletions that is skipped - in that case we want to reduce offset so we
need to subtract).

The `labs()` function operates, as the initial `l` suggests, on `long`
parameters. However, in `config.c` we tried to use it on values of type
`intmax_t`.
This problem was found by GCC v9.x.

is negative).

The kwset functionality makes use of the obstack code, which expects to
be handed a function that can allocate large chunks of data. It expects
that function to accept a `size` parameter of type `long`.
This upsets GCC 8 on Windows, because `long` does not have the same
bit size as `size_t` there.
Now, the proper thing to do would be to switch to `size_t`. But this
would make us deviate from the "upstream" code even further, making it
hard to synchronize with newer versions, and also it would be quite
involved because that `long` type is so invasive in that code.
Let's punt, and instead provide a super small wrapper around
`xmalloc()`.

The return type of the `GetProcAddress()` function is `FARPROC` which
evaluates to `long long int (*)()`, i.e. it cannot be cast to the
correct function signature by GCC 8.
To work around that, we first cast to `void *` and go on with our merry
lives.

The close_all_packs() method is now responsible for more than just pack-files.

The close_all_packs() method is used to close all read handles to
pack-files and the multi-pack-index before running 'git gc --auto'.
This is particularly important on the Windows platform, where read
handles block any writes to those files. Replacing one of these
files with a rename() will fail in this situation.
The commit-graph also performs a rename, so is susceptable to this
problem. We are careful to close the commit-graph before writing,
but that doesn't work when a 'git fetch' (or similar) process runs
'git gc --auto' which may write a commit-graph.
Here, close the commit-graph as part of close_all_packs().
