+
+* ap/commit-author-mailmap (2013-08-24) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 79d5a20)
+ + commit: search author pattern against mailmap
+
+ "git commit --author=$name", when $name is not in the canonical
+ "A. U. Thor <au.thor@example.xz>" format, looks for a matching name
+ from existing history, but did not consult mailmap to grab the

+* bc/send-email-ssl-die-message-fix (2013-09-10) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-13 at c6fcdf4)
+ + send-email: don't call methods on undefined values
+
+ When send-email comes up with an error message to die with upon
+ failure to start an SSL session, it tried to read the error string
+ from a wrong place.
+
+* dw/diff-no-index-doc (2013-08-28) 2 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-10 at 423c8f6)
+ + diff --no-index: describe in a separate paragraph
+ + diff --no-index: clarify operation when not inside a repository
+
+ When the user types "git diff" outside a working tree, thinking he
+ is inside one, the current error message that is a single-liner
+ "usage: git diff --no-index <path> <path>" may not be sufficient to
+ make him realize the mistake. Add "Not a git repository" to the
+ error message when we fell into the "--no-index" mode without an
+ explicit command line option to instruct us to do so.

- (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-05 at 3169083)

- It was unclear in the documentation how various configurations and
- environment variables determine which pager is eventually used.

-* jk/config-int-range-check (2013-09-09) 5 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 9ab779d)
- + git-config: always treat --int as 64-bit internally
- + config: make numeric parsing errors more clear
- + config: set errno in numeric git_parse_* functions
- + config: properly range-check integer values
- + config: factor out integer parsing from range checks
- "git config" did not provide a way to set or access numbers larger
- than a native "int" on the platform; it now provides 64-bit signed
- integers on all platforms.

could be relocated when it grows, which was a brown-paper-bag bug
that can lead to a crash introduced on 'master' post 1.8.4 release.
- Will merge to 'master' in the fourth batch.

+* jk/duplicate-objects-in-packs (2013-09-04) 5 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 72f2c3d)
+ + t5308: check that index-pack --strict detects duplicate objects
+ + test index-pack on packs with recoverable delta cycles
+ + add tests for indexing packs with delta cycles
+ + sha1-lookup: handle duplicate keys with GIT_USE_LOOKUP
+ + test-sha1: add a binary output mode
+
+ A packfile that stores the same object more than once is broken and
+ will be rejected.
-* jx/relative-path-regression-fix (2013-09-13) 3 commits
- - Use simpler relative_path when set_git_dir
- - relative_path should honor dos_drive_prefix
- - test: use unambigous leading path (/foo) for mingw
- (this branch uses jx/clean-interactive.)
+* jk/free-tree-buffer (2013-06-06) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 3576189)
+ + clear parsed flag when we free tree buffers
-* nd/unpack-entry-optim-in-pack-objects (2013-09-13) 1 commit
- - pack-objects: no crc check when the cached version is used
+* jk/has-sha1-file-retry-packed (2013-08-30) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at fc42e9b)
+ + has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving up
- The codepath to use data from packfiles that is only exercised in
- pack-objects unnecessarily checked crc checksum of the pack data,
- even when it ends up using in-core copy that it got by reading from
- the pack (at which point the checksum was validated).
+ When an object is not found after checking the packfiles and then
+ loose object directory, read_sha1_file() re-checks the packfiles to
+ prevent racing with a concurrent repacker; teach the same logic to
+ has_sha1_file().
+
+
+* jk/pager-bypass-cat-for-default-pager (2013-09-03) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at c9cfbaa)
+ + pager: turn on "cat" optimization for DEFAULT_PAGER
+
+ If a build-time fallback is set to "cat" instead of "less", we
+ should apply the same "no subprocess or pipe" optimization as we
+ apply to user-supplied GIT_PAGER=cat.
+
+
+* jk/remove-remote-helpers-in-python (2013-09-09) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-10 at 49c7a74)

+* jk/write-broken-index-with-nul-sha1 (2013-08-28) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 6953f27)
+ + write_index: optionally allow broken null sha1s
+
+ Earlier we started rejecting an attempt to add 0{40} object name to
+ the index and to tree objects, but it sometimes is necessary to
+ allow so to be able to use tools like filter-branch to correct such
+ broken tree objects.
+
+
+* js/add-i-mingw (2013-09-04) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-10 at 50ab841)
+ + add--interactive: fix external command invocation on Windows
+
+ The implementation of "add -i" has a crippling code to work around
+ ActiveState Perl limitation but it by mistake also triggered on Git
+ for Windows where MSYS perl is used.
+
+
+* jx/clean-interactive (2013-08-28) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 477fec6)

+
+ Finishing touches to update the document to adjust to a new option
+ "git clean" learned recently.
+
+
+* kk/tests-with-no-perl (2013-08-24) 4 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 67510b1)
+ + reset test: modernize style
+ + t/t7106-reset-unborn-branch.sh: Add PERL prerequisite

+ Some tests were not skipped under NO_PERL build.
+
+

+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-10 at 8ceb2ec)
+ + git p4: implement view spec wildcards with "p4 where"
+ + git p4 test: sanitize P4CHARSET
+
+ Replaced with a reroll that was whitespace damaged.
+
+
+* nd/git-dir-pointing-at-gitfile (2013-09-03) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 5b0a4bf)
+ + Make setup_git_env() resolve .git file when $GIT_DIR is not specified
+
+ We made sure that we notice the user-supplied GIT_DIR is actually a
+ gitfile, but failed to do so when the default ".git" is a gitfile.

+ + use 'tree-ish' instead of 'treeish'
+ + glossary: define commit-ish (a.k.a. committish)
+ + glossary: mention 'treeish' as an alternative to 'tree-ish'
+
+ We liberally use "committish" and "commit-ish" (and "treeish" and
+ "tree-ish"); as these are non-words, let's unify these terms to
+ their dashed form. More importantly, clarify the documentation on
+ object peeling using these terms.
+
+
+* ss/doclinks (2013-09-06) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-10 at 2d029a9)
+ + Documentation: make AsciiDoc links always point to HTML files
+
+ When we converted many documents that were traditionally text-only
+ to be formatted to AsciiDoc, we did not update links that point at
+ them to refer to the formatted HTML files.
+
+
+* ta/user-manual (2013-08-27) 11 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-10 at 1361be1)

+ + Use current output for "git repack"
+ + Use current "detached HEAD" message
+ + Call it "Git User Manual" and remove reference to very old Git version
+
+ Update the user's manual to more recent versions of Git.
+
+
+* tb/precompose-autodetect-fix (2013-08-27) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-09 at 9bfdac1)
+ + Set core.precomposeunicode to true on e.g. HFS+
+
+ On MacOS X, we detected if the filesystem needs the "pre-composed
+ unicode strings" workaround, but did not automatically enable it.
+ Now we do.
+
+
+* uh/git-svn-serf-fix (2013-09-06) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2013-09-13 at d65a9a1)
+ + git-svn: fix termination issues for remote svn connections
+
+ "git-svn" used with SVN 1.8.0 when talking over https:// connection
+ dumped core due to a bug in the serf library that SVN uses. Work
+ it around on our side, even though the SVN side is being fixed.
+
+--------------------------------------------------
+[New Topics]
+
+* es/name-hash-no-trailing-slash-in-dirs (2013-09-17) 4 commits
+ - dir: revert work-around for retired dangerous behavior
+ - name-hash: stop storing trailing '/' on paths in index_state.dir_hash
+ - employ new explicit "exists in index?" API
+ - name-hash: refactor polymorphic index_name_exists()
+
+ Clean up the internal of the name-hash mechanism used to work
+ around case insensitivity on some filesystems to cleanly fix a
+ long-standing API glitch where the caller of cache_name_exists()

+ have '/' at one location past the end of the string.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.

+* jc/upload-pack-send-symref (2013-09-17) 7 commits
+ - clone: test the new HEAD detection logic
+ - connect: annotate refs with their symref information in get_remote_head()
+ - connect.c: make parse_feature_value() static
+ - upload-pack: send non-HEAD symbolic refs
+ - upload-pack: send symbolic ref information as capability
+ - upload-pack.c: do not pass confusing cb_data to mark_our_ref()
+ - t5505: fix "set-head --auto with ambiguous HEAD" test
+
+ One long-standing flaw in the pack transfer protocol used by "git
+ clone" was that there was no way to tell the other end which branch
+ "HEAD" points at, and the receiving end needed to guess. A new
+ capability has been defined in the pack protocol to convey this
+ information so that cloning from a repository with more than one
+ branches pointing at the same commit where the HEAD is at now
+ reliably sets the initial branch in the resulting repository.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
+
+
+* jk/clone-progress-to-stderr (2013-09-18) 3 commits
+ - clone: always set transport options
+ - clone: treat "checking connectivity" like other progress
+ - clone: send diagnostic messages to stderr
+
+ Some progress and diagnostic messages from "git clone" were
+ incorrectly sent to the standard output stream, not to the standard
+ error stream.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
+
+
+* nd/fetch-pack-error-reporting-fix (2013-09-18) 1 commit
+ - fetch-pack.c: show correct command name that fails
+
+ When "fetch-pack" detected an error from spawned "index-pack" or
+ "unpack-objects", it did not report the failed program name
+ correctly when a shallow repository is involved.
+
+ Will merge to 'next'.
