* "git rev-parse --show-toplevel" run outside of any working tree did
not error out, which has been corrected.
- * A few commands learned to take the pathspec from the
- standard input or a named file, instead of taking it as the command
- line arguments.
+ * A few commands learned to take the pathspec from the standard input
+ or a named file, instead of taking it as the command line
+ arguments, with the "--pathspec-from-file" option.
* "git rebase -i" learned a few options that are known by "git
rebase" proper.
code have been taught to make more clear recommendations when the
users see failures.
+ * Management of sparsely checked-out working tree has gained a
+ dedicated "sparse-checkout" command.
+
+ * Miscellaneous small UX improvements on "git-p4".
+
+ * "git sparse-checkout list" subcommand learned to give its output in
+ a more concise form when the "cone" mode is in effect.
+
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
encourage new callers to use the correct and more strict
validation.
+ * Unnecessary reading of state variables back from the disk during
+ sequencer operation has been reduced.
+
+ * The code has been made to avoid gmtime() and localtime() and prefer
+ their reentrant counterparts.
+
+ * In a repository with many packfiles, the cost of the procedure that
+ avoids registering the same packfile twice was unnecessarily high
+ by using an inefficient search algorithm, which has been corrected.
+
+ * Redo "git name-rev" to avoid recursive calls.
+
+ * FreeBSD CI support via Cirrus-CI has been added.

Fixes since v2.24
-----------------
generation, instead of following the "if it takes more than two
seconds, show progress" pattern, which has been corrected.
+ * "git rebase" did not work well when format.useAutoBase
+ configuration variable is set, which has been corrected.
+
+ * The "diff" machinery learned not to lose added/removed blank lines
+ in the context when --ignore-blank-lines and --function-context are
+ used at the same time.
+ (merge 0bb313a552 rs/xdiff-ignore-ws-w-func-context later to maint).
+
+ * The test on "fast-import" used to get stuck when "fast-import" died
+ in the middle.
+ (merge 0d9b0d7885 sg/t9300-robustify later to maint).
+
+ * "git format-patch" can take a set of configured format.notes values
+ to specify which notes refs to use in the log message part of the
+ output. The behaviour of this was not consistent with multiple
+ --notes command line options, which has been corrected.
+ (merge e0f9095aaa dl/format-patch-notes-config-fixup later to maint).
+
+ * "git p4" used to ignore lfs.storage configuration variable, which
+ has been corrected.
+ (merge ea94b16fb8 rb/p4-lfs later to maint).
+
+ * Assorted fixes to the directory traversal API.
+ (merge 6836d2fe06 en/fill-directory-fixes later to maint).
+
+ * Forbid pathnames that the platform's filesystem cannot represent on
+ MinGW.
+ (merge 4dc42c6c18 js/mingw-reserved-filenames later to maint).
+
+ * "git rebase --signoff" stopped working when the command was written
+ in C, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 4fe7e43c53 en/rebase-signoff-fix later to maint).
+
+ * An earlier update to Git for Windows declared that a tree object is
+ invalid if it has a path component with backslash in it, which was
+ overly strict, which has been corrected. The only protection the
+ Windows users need is to prevent such path (or any path that their
+ filesystem cannot check out) from entering the index.
+ (merge 224c7d70fa js/mingw-loosen-overstrict-tree-entry-checks later to maint).
+
+ * The code to write split commit-graph file(s) upon fetching computed
+ bogus value for the parameter used in splitting the resulting
+ files, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 63020f175f ds/commit-graph-set-size-mult later to maint).
+
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
