+ - SQUASH???
+ - SQUASH???
+ - diff: retire the original experimental "compaction" heuristics
---------------------------------------------------
-[New Topics]
+ Waiting for a reroll.
-* jc/cache-tree-wip (2016-11-18) 4 commits
- - cache-tree: freshen the tree object at the top level
- - cache-tree: retire cache_tree_fully_valid() API function
- - commit: remove redundant check for active_cache_changed
- - freshen_object(): factor out a helper function
+* jc/abbrev-autoscale-config (2016-11-01) 1 commit

- - push: fix --dry-run to not push submodules
- - push: --dry-run updates submodules when --recurse-submodules=on-demand
- (this branch uses hv/submodule-not-yet-pushed-fix.)
+ Waiting for a reroll.
-* jk/rev-parse-symbolic-parents-fix (2016-11-16) 1 commit
- - rev-parse: fix parent shorthands with --symbolic
+* jk/nofollow-attr-ignore (2016-11-02) 5 commits
+ - exclude: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitignore
+ - attr: do not respect symlinks for in-tree .gitattributes
+ - exclude: convert "check_index" into a flags field

+ - add open_nofollow() helper
+ As we do not follow symbolic links when reading control files like
+ .gitignore and .gitattributes from the index, match the behaviour
+ and not follow symbolic links when reading them from the working
+ tree. This also tightens security a bit by not leaking contents of
+ an unrelated file in the error messages when it is pointed at by
+ one of these files that is a symbolic link.

- - worktree list: keep the list sorted
- - get_worktrees() must return main worktree as first item even on error
- - worktree.c: zero new 'struct worktree' on allocation
- (this branch is used by nd/worktree-move.)
+ Perhaps we want to cover .gitmodules too with the same mechanism?

- SQUASH
- submodule helper: support super prefix
- submodule: use absolute path for computing relative path connecting
+ A new submodule helper "git submodule embedgitdirs" to make it
+ easier to move embedded .git/ directory for submodules in a
+ superproject to .git/modules/ (and point the latter with the former
+ that is turned into a "gitdir:" file) has been added.
+
+ Need to read it over again, deal with SQUASH, and may ask for a
+ reroll.

- submodules: allow empty working-tree dirs in merge/cherry-pick
"git grep" learns to optionally recurse into submodules

- Waiting for a reroll.
+ Will merge to 'next'.
