--------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
http://git-blame.blogspot.com/p/git-public-repositories.html
--------------------------------------------------
-[Graduated to "master"]
+[New Topics]
+
+* bw/read-blob-data-does-not-modify-index-state (2017-01-11) 1 commit
+ - index: improve constness for reading blob data
+
+ Code clean-up.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
+
+
+* ep/commit-static-buf-cleanup (2017-01-13) 2 commits
+ - builtin/commit.c: switch to xstrfmt(), instead of snprintf()
+ - builtin/commit.c: remove the PATH_MAX limitation via dynamic allocation
+
+ Code clean-up.
+
+ Expecting a reroll.
+ The tip one would instead be done with strbuf.
+ cf. <CA+EOSB=4-TKpi6mr-yVbwRsFrVzE=vo4Y9Qm3VMm7pn=UB1_hQ@mail.gmail.com>
+
+
+* jk/grep-e-could-be-extended-beyond-posix (2017-01-11) 1 commit
+ - t7810: avoid assumption about invalid regex syntax
+
+ Tighten a test to avoid mistaking an extended ERE regexp engine as
+ a PRE regexp engine.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
+
+
+* jk/vreport-sanitize (2017-01-11) 2 commits
+ - vreport: sanitize ASCII control chars
+ - Revert "vreportf: avoid intermediate buffer"
+
+ An error message with an ASCII control character like '\r' in it
+ can alter the message to hide its early part, which is problematic
+ when a remote side gives such an error message that the local side
+ will relay with a "remote: " prefix.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
+
+
+* sb/unpack-trees-super-prefix (2017-01-12) 5 commits
+ - SQUASH
+ - unpack-trees: support super-prefix option
+ - t1001: modernize style
+ - t1000: modernize style
+ - read-tree: use OPT_BOOL instead of OPT_SET_INT
+
+ "git read-tree" and its underlying unpack_trees() machinery learned
+ to report problematic paths prefixed with the --super-prefix option.
+
+ Expecting a reroll.
+ The first three are in good shape. The last one needs a better
+ explanation and possibly an update to its test.

(merged to 'next' on 2016-12-22 at 1ede815b8d)
+ real_path: resolve symlinks by hand
(this branch is tangled with bw/realpath-wo-chdir.)
- "git grep" learns to optionally recurse into submodules.
+ "git grep" has been taught to optionally recurse into submodules.
+

+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
-* dt/smart-http-detect-server-going-away (2016-11-18) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 3ea70d01af)
- + upload-pack: optionally allow fetching any sha1
- + remote-curl: don't hang when a server dies before any output
+* sb/submodule-doc (2017-01-12) 3 commits
+ - submodules: add a background story
+ - submodule update documentation: don't repeat ourselves
+ - submodule documentation: add options to the subcommand
- Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-21
+ Needs review.
- When the http server gives an incomplete response to a smart-http
- rpc call, it could lead to client waiting for a full response that
- will never come. Teach the client side to notice this condition
- and abort the transfer.
- An improvement counterproposal has failed.
- cf. <20161114194049.mktpsvgdhex2f4zv@sigill.intra.peff.net>
+* sb/submodule-embed-gitdir (2017-01-12) 1 commit
+ - submodule absorbgitdirs: mention in docstring help
+ Help-text fix.
-* jc/abbrev-autoscale-config (2016-12-22) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-27 at 631e4200e2)
- + config.abbrev: document the new default that auto-scales
+ Will merge to 'next'.
- Recent update to the default abbreviation length that auto-scales
- lacked documentation update, which has been corrected.
+* sb/submodule-init (2017-01-12) 1 commit
+ - submodule update --init: display correct path from submodule
-* jc/compression-config (2016-11-15) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at 323769ca07)
- + compression: unify pack.compression configuration parsing
+ Error message fix.
- Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-11-23
+ Will merge to 'next'.
- Compression setting for producing packfiles were spread across
- three codepaths, one of which did not honor any configuration.
- Unify these so that all of them honor core.compression and
- pack.compression variables the same way.
+* vn/diff-ihc-config (2017-01-12) 1 commit
+ - diff: add interhunk context config option
-* jc/git-open-cloexec (2016-11-02) 3 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-27 at 487682eb6e)
- + sha1_file: stop opening files with O_NOATIME
- + git_open_cloexec(): use fcntl(2) w/ FD_CLOEXEC fallback
- + git_open(): untangle possible NOATIME and CLOEXEC interactions
+ "git diff" learned diff.interHunkContext configuration variable
+ that gives the default value for its --inter-hunk-context option.
- The codeflow of setting NOATIME and CLOEXEC on file descriptors Git
- opens has been simplified.
- We may want to drop the tip one, but we'll see.
+ Will merge to 'next'.
-* jc/latin-1 (2016-09-26) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-05 at fb549caa12)

- + utf8: refactor code to decide fallback encoding
+* ad/bisect-terms (2017-01-13) 1 commit
+ - Documentation/bisect: improve on (bad|new) and (good|bad)
- Originally merged to 'next' on 2016-09-28
+ Documentation fix.
- Some platforms no longer understand "latin-1" that is still seen in
- the wild in e-mail headers; replace them with "iso-8859-1" that is
- more widely known when conversion fails from/to it.
+ Will merge to 'next'.
-* jc/retire-compaction-heuristics (2016-12-23) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-27 at c69c2f50cf)

+ - attr.c: tighten constness around "git_attr" structure
+ - attr.c: simplify macroexpand_one()
+ - attr.c: mark where #if DEBUG ends more clearly

+ - attr.c: explain the lack of attr-name syntax check in parse_attr()
+ - attr.c: update a stale comment on "struct match_attr"
+ - attr.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
+ - commit.c: use strchrnul() to scan for one line
- "git diff" and its family had two experimental heuristics to shift
- the contents of a hunk to make the patch easier to read. One of
- them turns out to be better than the other, so leave only the
- "--indent-heuristic" option and remove the other one.
+ The gitattributes machinery is being taught to work better in a
+ multi-threaded environment.
+ Needs review.

+ "git fsck" inspects loose objects more carefully now.
+ Needs review.

- (merged to 'next' on 2016-12-27 at b63805e6f6)
- + fast-import: properly fanout notes when tree is imported

- 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

+ Will merge to 'next'.

+
+ As we do not follow symbolic links when reading control files like

-
-
-* jc/reset-unmerge (2016-10-24) 1 commit
- . reset: --unmerge
-
- After "git add" is run prematurely during a conflict resolution,
- "git diff" can no longer be used as a way to sanity check by
- looking at the combined diff. "git reset" learned a new
- "--unmerge" option to recover from this situation.

-* jc/merge-base-fp-only (2016-10-19) 8 commits
- . merge-base: fp experiment
- . merge: allow to use only the fp-only merge bases
- . merge-base: limit the output to bases that are on first-parent chain
- . merge-base: mark bases that are on first-parent chain
- . merge-base: expose get_merge_bases_many_0() a bit more
- . merge-base: stop moving commits around in remove_redundant()
- . sha1_name: remove ONELINE_SEEN bit

-* tb/convert-stream-check (2016-10-27) 2 commits
- . convert.c: stream and fast search for binary
- . read-cache: factor out get_sha1_from_index() helper
-
- End-of-line conversion sometimes needs to see if the current blob
- in the index has NULs and CRs to base its decision. We used to
- always get a full statistics over the blob, but in many cases we
- can return early when we have seen "enough" (e.g. if we see a
- single NUL, the blob will be handled as binary). The codepaths
- have been optimized by using streaming interface.
-
- Retracted.

- . connect: make parse_connect_url() return the user part of the url as a separate value
- . connect: group CONNECT_DIAG_URL handling code
- . connect: make parse_connect_url() return separated host and port
- . connect: re-derive a host:port string from the separate host and port variables
- . connect: call get_host_and_port() earlier
- . connect: document why we sometimes call get_port after get_host_and_port
-
- Rewrite Git-URL parsing routine (hopefully) without changing any
- behaviour.
-
- It has been months without any support.

- Follow-on to dk/gc-idx-wo-pack topic, to clean up stale
- .bitmap and .keep files.
+ The attributes API has been updated so that it can later be
+ optimized using the knowledge of which attributes are queried.
+ Building on top of the updated API, the pathspec machinery learned
+ to select only paths with given attributes set.
- Has been waiting for a reroll for too long.
- cf. <xmqq60ypbeng.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com>
