-* ct/advise-push-default (2012-04-12) 3 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-04-12 at b0613cd)
- + Fix httpd tests that broke when non-ff push advice changed
- + clean up struct ref's nonfastforward field
- + push: Provide situational hints for non-fast-forward errors
- (this branch is used by mm/push-default-switch-warning.)
+Fix two places that were the only place in the test suite that gave "a\+"
+to platform grep and expected it to mean one or more "a", which is a
+blatant GNUism.
-Breaks down the cases in which "git push" fails due to non-ff into three
-categories, and gives separate advise messages. This should be a good
-change regardless of mm/push-default-switch-warning topic.

+Valgrind reports quite a lot of discarded memory inside apply.
-When "git am -3" needs to fall back to an application to a synthesized
-preimage followed by a 3-way merge, the paths that needed such treatment
-are now reported to the end user, so that the result in them can be
-eyeballed with extra care.

+ + cherry-pick: do not expect file arguments
The command line parser choked "git cherry-pick $name" when $name can be
both revision name and a pathname, even though $name can never be a path
unnecessarily invasive a bit. It may be cleaner for this caller to add
the "--" to the end of the argv_array it passes to setup_revisions().

only be useful if people start doing more interesting things with hooks.

+* mm/push-default-switch-warning (2012-04-23) 10 commits
+ - fixup! push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"
+ - fixup! t5528-push-default.sh: add helper functions
+ - push: suggested updates to push configuration documentation
- push: start warning upcoming default change for push.default
+ - push: document the future default change for push.default (matching -> simple)
- t5570: use explicit push refspec
- push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"
+ - t5528-push-default.sh: add helper functions
+ - Undocument deprecated alias 'push.default=tracking'
- Documentation: explain push.default option a bit more
-This resurrects an ancient patch I wrote during a discussion we had in the
-1.6.3-1.6.4 era. This should probably come after ct/advise-push-default
-topic and at that point the advise messages need to be rephrased, taking
-the future default change into account.

-* cn/apply-fix-ws-can-lengthen-lines (2012-03-11) 1 commit
- . apply: reallocate the postimage buffer when needed
-
-Attempts to address an ancient bug that dates back to the addition
-of an oddball "tab-in-indent" whitespace breakage class that wants
-to have longer lines than the original when fixing things up; broken
-and results in double-frees.

-* ss/git-svn-prompt-sans-terminal (2012-01-04) 3 commits
- . fixup! 15eaaf4
- . git-svn, perl/Git.pm: extend Git::prompt helper for querying users

-
-Has been stalled for too long.
+Introduces 'simple' mode to be used as the push.default in a future
+version of git. I think the series is almost there modulo some minor
+nits.
-* lt/octopus-simplify (2012-04-17) 3 commits
- . git-merge: Reduce heads before trying to merge them
- . Make 'git merge' simplify parents earlier
- - merge tests: octopus with redundant parents
- (this branch is tangled with jc/merge-reduce-parents-early.)
+This topic should be renamed to "mm/push-simple-method" and the last
+step to start warning made into a separate topic that build on it, but
+the review comments need to be addressed in a reroll before that
-Octopus merge strategy did not reduce heads that are recorded in the final
-commit, but follow-up broke badly.
