+What's cooking in git.git (Feb 2016, #06; Mon, 22)
--------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'. The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.
+I originally penciled in -rc0 for today, but let's give a handful of
+topics that are cooking in 'next' a few more time and merge them to
+'master' before doing so. On the 'maint' front, there is 2.7.2 out,
+that merges the fixes accumulated on 'master' so far.
+
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches of the
repositories listed at

+ + git-config: better document default behavior for `--include`
+
+ A belated documentation update clarifies the interaction between
+ "--file", "--include" and "[include] path = $over_there".
+
- The "user.useConfigOnly" configuration variable can be used to
- force the user to always set user.email & user.name configuration
- variables, serving as a reminder for those who work on multiple
- projects and do not want to put these in their $HOME/.gitconfig.

-* dw/mergetool-vim-window-shuffle (2016-02-12) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-02-12 at 2a2e8bd)
- + mergetool: reorder vim/gvim buffers in three-way diffs
-
- The vimdiff backend for "git mergetool" has been tweaked to arrange
- and number buffers in the order that would match the expectation of
- majority of people who read left to right, then top down and assign
- buffers 1 2 3 4 "mentally" to local base remote merge windows based
- on that order.

-
- It turns out "git clone" over rsync transport has been broken when
- the source repository has packed references for a long time, and
- nobody noticed nor complained about it.

-* jk/rerere-xsnprintf (2016-02-08) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-02-09 at ff9ade3)
- + rerere: replace strcpy with xsnprintf
- (this branch is used by jc/rerere-multi.)
-
- Some calls to strcpy(3) triggers a false warning from static
- analysers that are less intelligent than humans, and reducing the
- number of these false hits helps us notice real issues. A few
- calls to strcpy(3) in "git rerere" that are already safe has been
- rewritten to avoid false wanings.

- + mingw: do not trust MSYS2's MinGW gettext.sh
- + mingw: let's use gettext with MSYS2
- (this branch is used by mg/mingw-test-fix.)
-
- Test scripts have been updated to remove assumptions that are not
- portable between Git for POSIX and Git for Windows, or to skip ones
- with expectations that are not satisfiable on Git for Windows.
-
-
-* mg/mingw-test-fix (2016-02-08) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-02-12 at df77956)
- + t9100: fix breakage when SHELL_PATH is not /bin/sh
- (this branch uses js/mingw-tests.)
-
- An earlier adjustment of test mistakenly used write_script
- to prepare a file whose exact content matters for the test;
- reverting that part fixes the breakage for those who use
- SHELL_PATH that is different from /bin/sh.
-
-
-* mm/clean-doc-fix (2016-02-09) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-02-09 at ced8555)
- + Documentation/git-clean.txt: don't mention deletion of .git/modules/*
-
- The documentation for "git clean" has been corrected; it mentioned
- that .git/modules/* are removed by giving two "-f", which has never
- been the case.
-
-
-* nd/clear-gitenv-upon-use-of-alias (2016-02-02) 4 commits

- + git: simplify environment save/restore logic

+
+ Traditionally, the tests that try commands that work on the

+ filenames, but with the recent addition of "git worktree"

+* js/am-3-merge-recursive-direct (2015-10-12) 2 commits
+ - am: make a direct call to merge_recursive
+ - merge_recursive_options: introduce the "gently" flag
+
+ The merge_recursive_generic() function has been made a bit safer to
+ call from inside a process. "git am -3" was taught to make a direct
+ call to the function when falling back to three-way merge.
+
+ Being able to make a direct call would be good in general, but as a
+ performance thing, the change needs to be backed up by numbers.
+
+ Needs review.
+
+ I haven't gone through the "gently" change with fine toothed comb;
+ I can see that the change avoids calling die(), but I haven't made
+ sure that the program states (e.g. what's in the in-core index) are
+ adjusted sensibly when it returns to the caller instead of dying,
+ or the codepaths that used to die() are free of resource leaks.
+ The original code certainly did not care the program states at the
+ point of dying exactly because it knew it is going to exit, but now
+ they have to care, and they need to be audited.

The "name_path" API was an attempt to reduce the need to construct
the full path out of a series of path components while walking a
tree hierarchy, but over time made less efficient because the path
needs to be flattened, e.g. to be compared with another path that
- is already flat. Remove the API and rewrite its users to simplify
- overall code complexity.
