+* ds/background-maintenance-with-credential (2024-09-20) 3 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2024-09-24 at 379a7a1003)
+ + scalar: configure maintenance during 'reconfigure'
+ + maintenance: add custom config to background jobs
+ + credential: add new interactive config option
+
+ Background tasks "git maintenance" runs may need to use credential
+ information when going over the network, but a credential helper
+ may work only in an interactive environment, and end up blocking a
+ scheduled task waiting for UI. Credential helpers can now behave
+ differently when they are not running interactively.

+ but gave a generic "failed to work in that submodule", which was

+* jc/a-commands-without-the-repo (2024-09-30) 4 commits
+ - archive: remove the_repository global variable
+ - apply: remove the_repository global variable
+ - annotate: remove usage of the_repository global
+ - git: pass in repo for RUN_SETUP_GENTLY
+
+ Commands that can also work outside Git have learned to take the
+ repository instance "repo" when we know we are in a repository, and
+ NULL when we are not, in a parameter. The uses of the_repository
+ variable in a few of them have been removed using the new calling
+ convention.
