7 What's cooking in git.git (Jun 2015, #05; Mon, 22)
8 --------------------------------------------------
10 Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
11 '-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
14 Some of the topics in flight have overlaps with each other and have
15 been excluded from 'pu'; most notably, I think the remainder of
16 bc/object-id needs to wait until the for-each-ref topic from Karthik
17 settles and then rebased on it, or something.
19 Hopefully the pre-release freeze can start late this week, and the
20 next cycle would reopen mid next month. In the meantime, let's
21 shift the focus on making sure that what has already been merged to
22 'master' are good (i.e. regression hunting and fixes).
24 You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
25 of the repositories listed at
27 http://git-blame.blogspot.com/p/git-public-repositories.html
29 --------------------------------------------------
32 * js/rebase-i-clean-up-upon-continue-to-skip (2015-06-18) 3 commits
33 - rebase -i: do not leave a CHERRY_PICK_HEAD file behind
34 - SQUASH: test_must_fail is a shell function
35 - t3404: demonstrate CHERRY_PICK_HEAD bug
37 Abandoning an already applied change in "git rebase -i" with
38 "--continue" left CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and confused later steps.
44 * me/fetch-into-shallow-safety (2015-06-17) 1 commit
45 - fetch-pack: check for shallow if depth given
47 "git fetch --depth=<depth>" and "git clone --depth=<depth>" issued
48 a shallow transfer request even to an upload-pack that does not
49 support the capability.
54 * mm/describe-doc (2015-06-16) 1 commit
55 - Documentation/describe: improve one-line summary
60 * rh/test-color-avoid-terminfo-in-original-home (2015-06-17) 2 commits
61 - test-lib.sh: fix color support when tput needs ~/.terminfo
62 - Revert "test-lib.sh: do tests for color support after changing HOME"
64 An ancient test framework enhancement to allow color was not
65 entirely correct; this makes it work even when tput needs to read
66 from the ~/.terminfo under the user's real HOME directory.
71 * tb/checkout-doc (2015-06-17) 1 commit
72 - git-checkout.txt: document "git checkout <pathspec>" better
77 * jk/pretty-encoding-doc (2015-06-17) 1 commit
78 - docs: clarify that --encoding can produce invalid sequences
83 * ak/format-patch-odir-config (2015-06-19) 1 commit
84 - format-patch: introduce format.outputDirectory configuration
86 Reroll exists but didn't pick it up as it seems to be still
87 collecting review comments.
90 * bc/gpg-verify-raw (2015-06-22) 7 commits
91 - verify-tag: add option to print raw gpg status information
92 - verify-commit: add option to print raw gpg status information
93 - gpg: centralize printing signature buffers
94 - gpg: centralize signature check
95 - verify-commit: add test for exit status on untrusted signature
96 - verify-tag: share code with verify-commit
97 - verify-tag: add tests
99 "git verify-tag" and "git verify-commit" have been taught to share
100 more code, and then learned to optionally show the verification
101 message from the underlying GPG implementation.
103 Will merge to 'next'.
106 * cb/parse-magnitude (2015-06-22) 2 commits
107 - parse-options: move unsigned long option parsing out of pack-objects.c
108 - test-parse-options: update to handle negative ints
110 Move machinery to parse human-readable scaled numbers like 1k, 4M,
111 and 2G as an option parameter's value from pack-objects to
112 parse-options API, to make it available to other codepaths.
114 Will merge to 'next'.
117 * cb/subtree-tests-update (2015-06-22) 3 commits
118 - contrib/subtree: small tidy-up to test
119 - contrib/subtree: fix broken &&-chains and revealed test error

126 - mergetool-lib: fix default tool selection
128 An earlier change already in 'master' broke the default tool
129 selection for mergetool.
131 Will merge to 'next'.
134 * jk/cat-file-batch-all (2015-06-22) 8 commits
135 - cat-file: sort and de-dup output of --batch-all-objects
136 - cat-file: add --batch-all-objects option

140 - cat-file: move batch_options definition to top of file
141 - cat-file: minor style fix in options list
142 - Merge branch 'jk/maint-for-each-packed-object' into jk/cat-file-batch-all
143 (this branch uses jk/maint-for-each-packed-object.)
145 "cat-file" learned "--batch-all-objects" option to enumerate all
146 available objects in the repository more quickly than "rev-list
147 --all --objects" (the output includes unreachable objects, though).
151 * jk/maint-for-each-packed-object (2015-06-22) 1 commit
152 - for_each_packed_object: automatically open pack index
153 (this branch is used by jk/cat-file-batch-all.)
155 The for_each_packed_object() API function did not iterate over
156 objects in a packfile that hasn't been used yet.
158 Will merge to 'next'.
161 --------------------------------------------------

166 - t4202-log: add tests for --merges=
167 - Documentation: add git-log --merges= option and log.merges config. var
168 - log: honor log.merges= option
169 - revision: add --merges={show|only|hide} option
171 "git log" (but not other commands in the "log" family) learned to
172 pay attention to the log.merges configuration variable that can be
173 set to "show" (the normal behaviour), "only" (hide non-merge
174 commits), or "hide" (hide merge commits). --merges=(show|only|hide)
175 can be used to override the setting from the command line.
177 The documentation may need to be updated once more ($gmane/267250).
178 Waiting for a reroll.
181 * mg/httpd-tests-update-for-apache-2.4 (2015-04-08) 2 commits
182 - t/lib-git-svn: check same httpd module dirs as lib-httpd

202 - write_subdirectory(): use convert_ui() for parsing mode
203 - cacheinfo_callback(): use convert_ui() when handling "--cacheinfo"
204 - numparse: new module for parsing integral numbers
206 Many codepaths use unchecked use of strtol() and friends (or even
207 worse, atoi()). Introduce a set of wrappers that try to be more
214 * tf/gitweb-project-listing (2015-03-19) 5 commits

228 - "-" and "@{-1}" on various programs
230 Lose special case code to make a lone dash "-" mean the previous
231 branch aka "@{-1}" from a handful subcommands, and instead support
232 the notation throughout the system by reimplementing it at the
235 Needs tests, documentation updates, etc. Also does only a half-way
236 job dealing with range notation, which needs to be fixed before the
237 series goes anywhere.
240 * nd/list-files (2015-02-09) 21 commits

310 "git diff -B -M" produced incorrect patch when the postimage of a
311 completely rewritten file is similar to the preimage of a removed
312 file; such a resulting file must not be expressed as a rename from

336 commit by showing the differences between the automerged result
337 with conflicts the person who recorded the merge would have seen
338 and the final conflict resolution that was recorded in the merge.
340 Waiting for a reroll.

570 - utf8.c: print warning about disabled iconv
572 Warn when a reencoding is requested in a build without iconv
573 support, as the end user is likely to get an unexpected result. I

618 - t4150: test applying StGit patch
620 Various enhancements around "git am" reading patches generated by
623 Will merge to 'next'.

627 - pull: remove redirection to git-pull.sh
628 - pull --rebase: error on no merge candidate cases

650 * rl/send-email-aliases (2015-06-17) 10 commits
651 - send-email: suppress meaningless whitespaces in from field
652 - send-email: allow multiple emails using --cc, --to and --bcc
653 - send-email: consider quote as delimiter instead of character
654 - send-email: reduce dependancies impact on parse_address_line
655 - send-email: minor code refactoring
656 - send-email: allow use of aliases in the From field of --compose mode
657 - send-email: refactor address list process
658 - t9001-send-email: refactor header variable fields replacement
659 - send-email: allow aliases in patch header and command script outputs
660 - t9001-send-email: move script creation in a setup test
662 "git send-email" now performs alias-expansion on names that are
663 given via --cccmd, etc.
665 This round comes with a lot more enhanced e-mail address parser,
666 which makes it a bit scary, but as long as it works as designed, it
667 makes it wonderful ;-).
672 * sg/commit-cleanup-scissors (2015-06-09) 1 commit
673 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-16 at 988e23d)
674 + commit: cope with scissors lines in commit message
676 "git commit --cleanup=scissors" was not careful enough to protect
677 against getting fooled by a line that looked like scissors.
679 Will merge to 'master'.
682 * sg/completion-commit-cleanup (2015-06-08) 1 commit
683 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-16 at a9d1c77)
684 + completion: teach 'scissors' mode to 'git commit --cleanup='
686 Will merge to 'master'.
689 * wp/sha1-name-negative-match (2015-06-08) 2 commits
690 - sha1_name.c: introduce '^{/!-<negative pattern>}' notation
691 - test for '!' handling in rev-parse's named commits
693 Introduce "branch^{/!-<pattern>}" notation to name a commit
694 reachable from branch that does not match the given pattern.
699 * bc/object-id (2015-06-17) 10 commits
700 . remote.c: use struct object_id in many functions
701 . object-id: use struct object_id in struct object
702 . remote.c: use struct object_id in ref_newer()
703 . transport-helper.c: use struct object_id in push_refs_with_export()
704 . connect.c: use struct object_id in get_remote_heads()
705 . remote-curl: use struct object_id in parse_fetch()
706 . fetch-pack: use struct object_id in add_sought_entry_mem()
707 . object_id: convert struct ref to use object_id.
708 . sha1_file: introduce has_object_file() helper
709 . refs: convert some internal functions to use object_id
711 More transition from "unsigned char[40]" to "struct object_id".
713 While GSoC and other topics are actively moving existing code
714 around, this cannot go in; ejected from 'pu'.
717 * jc/ll-merge-expose-path (2015-06-04) 1 commit
718 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at 5c5fe41)
719 + ll-merge: pass the original path to external drivers
721 Traditionally, external low-level 3-way merge drivers are expected
722 to produce their results based solely on the contents of the three
723 variants given in temporary files named by %O, %A and %B on their
724 command line. Additionally allow them to look at the final path
727 Will merge to 'master'.
730 * jk/log-missing-default-HEAD (2015-06-03) 1 commit
731 - log: diagnose empty HEAD more clearly
733 "git init empty && git -C empty log" said "bad default revision 'HEAD'",
734 which was found to be a bit confusing to new users.
736 What's the status of this one?
739 * gr/rebase-i-drop-warn (2015-06-01) 2 commits
740 - git rebase -i: warn about removed commits
741 - git-rebase -i: add command "drop" to remove a commit
743 Add "drop commit-object-name subject" command as another way to
744 skip replaying of a commit in "rebase -i", and then punish those
745 who do not use it (and instead just remove the lines) by throwing
748 Expecting a reroll ($gmane/271831).
751 * jh/strbuf-read-use-read-in-full (2015-06-01) 1 commit
752 - strbuf_read(): skip unnecessary strbuf_grow() at eof
754 Avoid one extra iteration and strbuf_grow() of 8kB in
757 Looked reasonable; perhaps a log message clarification is needed.
762 * mh/reporting-broken-refs-from-for-each-ref (2015-06-08) 4 commits
763 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-16 at 31af2b8)
764 + read_loose_refs(): treat NULL_SHA1 loose references as broken
765 + read_loose_refs(): simplify function logic
766 + for-each-ref: report broken references correctly
767 + t6301: new tests of for-each-ref error handling
769 "git for-each-ref" reported "missing object" for 0{40} when it
770 encounters a broken ref. The lack of object whose name is 0{40} is
771 not the problem; the ref being broken is.
773 Will merge to 'master'.
776 * jc/apply-reject-noop-hunk (2015-06-01) 1 commit
777 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at 8063665)
778 + apply: reject a hunk that does not do anything
780 "git apply" cannot diagnose a patch corruption when the breakage is
781 to mark the length of the hunk shorter than it really is on the
782 hunk header line "@@ -l,k +m,n @@"; one special case it could is
783 when the hunk becomes no-op (e.g. k == n == 2 for two-line context
784 patch output), and it learned how to do so.
786 Will merge to 'master'.
789 * es/configure-getdelim (2015-06-03) 2 commits
790 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at cdead14)
791 + configure: add getdelim() check
792 + config.mak.uname: Darwin: define HAVE_GETDELIM for modern OS X releases
794 Auto-detect availability of getdelim() that helps optimized version
795 of strbuf_getwholeline().
797 Will merge to 'master'.
800 * es/osx-header-pollutes-mask-macro (2015-06-03) 2 commits
801 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at cd8c39e)
802 + ewah: use less generic macro name
803 + ewah/bitmap: silence warning about MASK macro redefinition
805 Will merge to 'master'.
808 * es/send-email-sendmail-alias (2015-06-01) 10 commits
809 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at b5e310e)
810 + send-email: further warn about unsupported sendmail aliases features
811 + t9001: add sendmail aliases line continuation tests
812 + t9001: refactor sendmail aliases test infrastructure
813 + send-email: implement sendmail aliases line continuation support
814 + send-email: simplify sendmail aliases comment and blank line recognizer
815 + send-email: refactor sendmail aliases parser
816 + send-email: fix style: cuddle 'elsif' and 'else' with closing brace
817 + send-email: drop noise comments which merely repeat what code says
818 + send-email: visually distinguish sendmail aliases parser warnings
819 + send-email: further document missing sendmail aliases functionality
821 "git send-email" learned to handle more forms of sendmail style
824 Will merge to 'master'.
827 * jc/do-not-feed-tags-to-clear-commit-marks (2015-06-01) 1 commit
828 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at 65b4308)
829 + format-patch: do not feed tags to clear_commit_marks()
831 "git format-patch --ignore-if-upstream A..B" did not like to be fed
832 tags as boundary commits.
834 Will merge to 'master'.
837 * mg/index-read-error-messages (2015-06-01) 2 commits
838 - messages: uniform error messages for index write
839 - show-index: uniform error messages for index read
845 * pt/pull-optparse (2015-06-02) 3 commits
846 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at e252b4c)
847 + pull: use git-rev-parse --parseopt for option parsing
848 + pull: handle git-fetch's options as well
849 + Merge branch 'pt/pull-tests' into pt/pull-optparse
851 "git pull" has become more aware of the options meant for
852 underlying "git fetch" and then learned to use parse-options
855 Will merge to 'master'.
858 * qn/blame-show-email (2015-06-01) 1 commit
859 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at b4998e2)
860 + blame: add blame.showEmail configuration
862 "git blame" learned blame.showEmail configuration variable.
864 Will merge to 'master'.
867 * rl/am-3way-config (2015-06-04) 3 commits
868 (merged to 'next' on 2015-06-11 at 9b9910d)
869 + git-am: add am.threeWay config variable
870 + t4150-am: refactor am -3 tests
871 + git-am.sh: fix initialization of the threeway variable
873 "git am" learned am.threeWay configuration variable.
875 Will merge to 'master'.
878 * hv/submodule-config (2015-06-15) 4 commits
879 - do not die on error of parsing fetchrecursesubmodules option
880 - use new config API for worktree configurations of submodules
881 - extract functions for submodule config set and lookup
882 - implement submodule config API for lookup of .gitmodules values
884 The gitmodules API accessed from the C code learned to cache stuff
887 Looked reasonable from a cursory read.
890 * sg/config-name-only (2015-05-28) 3 commits
891 - completion: use new 'git config' options to reliably list variable names
893 - config: add options to list only variable names
895 "git config --list" output was hard to parse when values consist of
896 multiple lines. Introduce a way to show only the keys.
898 Adding a single --name-only option may be a better way to go than
899 adding two new options.
904 * jc/push-tags-also (2015-05-29) 1 commit
905 - push --tags: push tags *in addition to* other stuff
907 "git fetch --tags" learned to fetch tags in addition to other stuff
908 a few years ago, but "git push --tags" didn't. Now it does.
911 * jc/commit-slab (2015-05-22) 1 commit
912 - commit-slab: introduce slabname##_peek() function
914 Memory use reduction when commit-slab facility is used to annotate
915 sparsely (which is not recommended in the first place).
918 * jc/clone-bundle (2015-04-30) 1 commit
919 - repack: optionally create a clone.bundle
924 * ee/clean-remove-dirs (2015-06-15) 5 commits
925 - clean: improve performance when removing lots of directories
926 - p7300: add performance tests for clean
927 - t7300: add tests to document behavior of clean and nested git
928 - setup: sanity check file size in read_gitfile_gently
929 - setup: add gentle version of read_gitfile
931 Replace "is this subdirectory a separate repository that should not
932 be touched?" check "git clean" does by checking if it has .git/HEAD
933 using the submodule-related code with a more optimized check.
935 Looked reasonable from a cursory read.
938 * jc/merge-drop-old-syntax (2015-04-29) 1 commit
939 (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-28 at 6bfd8b9)
940 + merge: drop 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax
942 Stop supporting "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that
943 has been deprecated since October 2007.
945 Will keep in 'next' during the 2.5 cycle.
