--------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.
-The fourth batch of topics have been merged to 'master'.
-
-The "untracked cache" series is in 'next', to give it a wider
-exposure. I do not use it personally, but it is meant to make life
-easier for those with large amount of untracked cruft in their
-working trees. Please try it out and report successes (and of
-course breakages, too).

[Graduated to "master"]
-* dl/branch-error-message (2015-05-06) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at ed947ab)
- + branch: do not call a "remote-tracking branch" a "remote branch"
-
- Error messages from "git branch" called remote-tracking branches as
- "remote branches".
-
-
-* dl/subtree-avoid-tricky-echo (2015-05-08) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 36d4f0e)
- + contrib/subtree: portability fix for string printing
-
- "git subtree" script (in contrib/) used "echo -n" to produce
- progress messages in a non-portable way.
-
-
-* dl/subtree-push-no-squash (2015-05-07) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 74d07ca)
- + contrib/subtree: there's no push --squash
-
- "git subtree" script (in contrib/) does not have --squash option
- when pushing, but the documentation and help text pretended as if
- it did.
-
-
-* ja/tutorial-asciidoctor-fix (2015-05-12) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-19 at f15d940)
- + doc: fix unmatched code fences
-
- A literal block in the tutorial had lines with unequal lengths to
- delimit it from the rest of the document, which choke GitHub's
- AsciiDoc renderer.
-
-
-* jc/ignore-epipe-in-filter (2015-05-20) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at 2b14ed7)
- + filter_buffer_or_fd(): ignore EPIPE
- + copy.c: make copy_fd() report its status silently
-
- Filter scripts were run with SIGPIPE disabled on the Git side,
- expecting that they may not read what Git feeds them to filter.
- We however treated a filter that does not read its input fully
- before exiting as an error.
-
- This changes semantics, but arguably in a good way. If a filter
- can produce its output without consuming its input using whatever
- magic, we now let it do so, instead of diagnosing it as a
- programming error.
-
-
-* jk/add-e-kill-editor (2015-05-12) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-19 at 9e01174)
- + add: check return value of launch_editor
-
- "git add -e" did not allow the user to abort the operation by
- killing the editor.

- + doc: put example URLs and emails inside literal backticks
- + doc: drop backslash quoting of some curly braces
- + doc: convert \--option to --option
- + doc/add: reformat `--edit` option
- + doc: fix length of underlined section-title
- + doc: fix hanging "+"-continuation
- + doc: fix unquoted use of "{type}"
- + doc: fix misrendering due to `single quote'
-
- Various documentation mark-up fixes to make the output more
- consistent in general and also make AsciiDoctor (an alternative
- formatter) happier.
-
-
-* jk/skip-http-tests-under-no-curl (2015-05-07) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at a52b711)
- + tests: skip dav http-push tests under NO_EXPAT=NoThanks

-
-
-* jk/stripspace-asciidoctor-fix (2015-05-12) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-19 at 12f9059)
- + doc: fix unmatched code fences in git-stripspace
-
- A literal block in the tutorial had lines with unequal lengths to
- delimit it from the rest of the document, which choke GitHub's
- AsciiDoc renderer.
-
-
-* lm/squelch-bg-progress (2015-05-19) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at 60916e6)
- + progress: treat "no terminal" as being in the foreground
-
- The controlling tty-based heuristics to squelch progress output did
- not consider that the process may not be talking to a tty at all
- (e.g. sending the progress to sideband #2). This is a finishing
- touch to a topic that is already in 'master'.
-
-
-* ls/http-ssl-cipher-list (2015-05-08) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 55764ce)
- + http: add support for specifying an SSL cipher list
-
- Introduce http.<url>.SSLCipherList configuration variable to tweak
- the list of cipher suite to be used with libcURL when talking with
- https:// sites.
-
-
-* mg/log-decorate-HEAD (2015-05-13) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-19 at 009342b)
- + log: do not shorten decoration names too early
- + log: decorate HEAD with branch name under --decorate=full, too
-
- The "log --decorate" enhancement in Git 2.4 that shows the commit
- at the tip of the current branch e.g. "HEAD -> master", did not
- work with --decorate=full.
-
-
-* mh/clone-verbosity-fix (2015-05-19) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at f613575)
- + clone: call transport_set_verbosity before anything else on the newly created transport
-
- Git 2.4 broke setting verbosity and progress levels on "git clone"
- with native transports.
-
-
-* mh/lockfile-retry (2015-05-14) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at 7ad2e9d)
- + lock_packed_refs(): allow retries when acquiring the packed-refs lock
- + lockfile: allow file locking to be retried with a timeout
-
- Instead of dying immediately upon failing to obtain a lock, retry
- after a short while with backoff.
-
-
-* mh/ref-directory-file (2015-05-11) 18 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-19 at 38eb122)
- + reflog_expire(): integrate lock_ref_sha1_basic() errors into ours
- + ref_transaction_commit(): delete extra "the" from error message
- + ref_transaction_commit(): provide better error messages
- + rename_ref(): integrate lock_ref_sha1_basic() errors into ours
- + lock_ref_sha1_basic(): improve diagnostics for ref D/F conflicts
- + lock_ref_sha1_basic(): report errors via a "struct strbuf *err"
- + verify_refname_available(): report errors via a "struct strbuf *err"
- + verify_refname_available(): rename function
- + refs: check for D/F conflicts among refs created in a transaction
- + ref_transaction_commit(): use a string_list for detecting duplicates
- + is_refname_available(): use dirname in first loop
- + struct nonmatching_ref_data: store a refname instead of a ref_entry
- + report_refname_conflict(): inline function
- + entry_matches(): inline function
- + is_refname_available(): convert local variable "dirname" to strbuf
- + is_refname_available(): avoid shadowing "dir" variable
- + is_refname_available(): revamp the comments
- + t1404: new tests of ref D/F conflicts within transactions
-
- The ref API did not handle cases where 'refs/heads/xyzzy/frotz' is
- removed at the same time as 'refs/heads/xyzzy' is added (or vice
- versa) very well.
-
-
-* mh/write-refs-sooner-2.2 (2015-05-12) 8 commits

- + write_ref_to_lockfile(): new function, extracted from write_ref_sha1()
- + t7004: rename ULIMIT test prerequisite to ULIMIT_STACK_SIZE
- + update-ref: test handling large transactions properly
- (this branch is used by mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3 and mh/write-refs-sooner-2.4.)
-
- Multi-ref transaction support we merged a few releases ago
- unnecessarily kept many file descriptors open, risking to fail with
- resource exhaustion.
-
-
-* mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3 (2015-05-12) 1 commit
- + Merge branch 'mh/write-refs-sooner-2.2' into mh/write-refs-sooner-2.3
- (this branch is used by mh/write-refs-sooner-2.4; uses mh/write-refs-sooner-2.2.)
-
- Multi-ref transaction support we merged a few releases ago

-* ps/bundle-verify-arg (2015-05-08) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 9f1b1ae)
- + bundle: verify arguments more strictly
-
- "git bundle verify" did not diagnose extra parameters on the
- command line.
-
-

- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at 6e1a5f1)
- + pull: remove --tags error in no merge candidates case
+* jk/rerere-forget-check-enabled (2015-05-14) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-19 at bfe67dc)
+ + rerere: exit silently on "forget" when rerere is disabled
- There was a dead code that used to handle "git pull --tags" and
- show special-cased error message, which was made irrelevant when
- the semantics of the option changed back in Git 1.9 days.
+ "git rerere forget" in a repository without rerere enabled gave a
+ cryptic error message; it should be a silent no-op instead.
-* sb/t1020-cleanup (2015-05-18) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at fa74b14)
- + subdirectory tests: code cleanup, uncomment test
+* nd/untracked-cache (2015-03-12) 24 commits

+ + t7063: tests for untracked cache
+ + update-index: test the system before enabling untracked cache
+ + update-index: manually enable or disable untracked cache
+ + status: enable untracked cache
+ + untracked-cache: temporarily disable with $GIT_DISABLE_UNTRACKED_CACHE
+ + untracked cache: mark index dirty if untracked cache is updated
+ + untracked cache: print stats with $GIT_TRACE_UNTRACKED_STATS
+ + untracked cache: avoid racy timestamps
+ + read-cache.c: split racy stat test to a separate function
+ + untracked cache: invalidate at index addition or removal
+ + untracked cache: load from UNTR index extension
+ + untracked cache: save to an index extension
+ + ewah: add convenient wrapper ewah_serialize_strbuf()
+ + untracked cache: don't open non-existent .gitignore
+ + untracked cache: mark what dirs should be recursed/saved
+ + untracked cache: record/validate dir mtime and reuse cached output
+ + untracked cache: make a wrapper around {open,read,close}dir()
+ + untracked cache: invalidate dirs recursively if .gitignore changes
+ + untracked cache: initial untracked cache validation
+ + untracked cache: record .gitignore information and dir hierarchy
+ + dir.c: optionally compute sha-1 of a .gitignore file
- There was a commented-out (instead of being marked to expect
- failure) test that documented a breakage that was fixed since the
- test was written; turn it into a proper test.
+ Teach the index to optionally remember already seen untracked files
+ to speed up "git status" in a working tree with tons of cruft.
-* sg/completion-config (2015-05-12) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-19 at c83fde1)
- + completion: simplify query for config variables
- + completion: add a helper function to get config variables
+* pt/pull-ff-vs-merge-ff (2015-05-18) 2 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at 064a082)
+ + pull: parse pull.ff as a bool or string
+ + pull: make pull.ff=true override merge.ff
- Code clean-up for completion script (in contrib/).
+ The pull.ff configuration was supposed to override the merge.ff
+ configuration, but it didn't.
-* sg/completion-omit-credential-helpers (2015-05-06) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at aa7e554)
- + completion: remove credential helpers from porcelain commands
+* pt/pull-log-n (2015-05-18) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at db6ce78)
+ + pull: handle --log=<n>
- The Git subcommand completion (in contrib/) listed credential
- helpers among candidates, which is not something the end user would
- invoke interatively.
+ "git pull --log" and "git pull --no-log" worked as expected, but
+ "git pull --log=20" did not.
-* sg/help-subcommands (2015-05-08) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-11 at 91e4f9e)

+* rs/plug-leak-in-pack-bitmaps (2015-05-19) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2015-05-20 at b70f647)
+ + pack-bitmaps: plug memory leak, fix allocation size for recent_bitmaps
- A preparatory clean-up step.
+ The code to read pack-bitmap wanted to allocate a few hundred
+ pointers to a structure, but by mistake allocated and leaked memory
+ enough to hold that many actual structures. Correct the allocation
+ size and also have it on stack, as it is small enough.
