+What's cooking in git.git (Feb 2012, #01; Fri, 3)
--------------------------------------------------
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are
only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with '+' are in
'next'.
-As promised in the recent couple of issues of "What's cooking", the first
-batch of topics that have been cooking in 'next' are now in 'master'. The
-tip of 'next' hasn't been rewound yet, but it soon will after the second
-batch of topics graduate.
-
Here are the repositories that have my integration branches:
With maint, master, next, pu, todo:
--------------------------------------------------
[New Topics]
-* fc/zsh-completion (2012-01-30) 4 commits
- - (squash to previous?) completion: remove unused code
- - completion: simplify __git_remotes
- - (squash) completion-style
- - completion: be nicer with zsh
+* nd/diffstat-gramnum (2012-02-03) 1 commit
+ - Use correct grammar in diffstat summary line
-Somehow only 2 out of 4-part series seem to have reached the list, missing
-the other 2.
+The commands in the "git diff" family and "git apply --stat" that count
+the number of files changed and the number of lines inserted/deleted have
+been updated to match the output from "diffstat". This also opens the
+door to i18n this line.
-* jc/maint-request-pull-for-tag (2012-01-31) 1 commit
- - request-pull: explicitly ask tags/$name to be pulled
+Will merge to 'next'.
+
+* jx/i18n-more-marking (2012-02-01) 2 commits
+ - i18n: format_tracking_info "Your branch is behind" message
+ - i18n: git-commit whence_s "merge/cherry-pick" message
-Usability improvement.
Will merge to 'next'.
-* nd/find-pack-entry-recent-cache-invalidation (2012-01-31) 1 commit
- - find_pack_entry(): do not keep packed_git pointer locally
+* jk/grep-binary-attribute (2012-02-02) 9 commits
+ - grep: pre-load userdiff drivers when threaded
+ - grep: load file data after checking binary-ness
+ - grep: respect diff attributes for binary-ness
+ - grep: cache userdiff_driver in grep_source
+ - grep: drop grep_buffer's "name" parameter
+ - convert git-grep to use grep_source interface
+ - grep: refactor the concept of "grep source" into an object
+ - grep: move sha1-reading mutex into low-level code
+ - grep: make locking flag global
+
+Fixes a longstanding bug that there was no way to tell "git grep" that a
+path may look like text but it is not, which "git diff" can do using the
+attributes system. Now "git grep" honors the same "binary" (or "-diff")
+attribute.
-Review comments sent.
+Will merge to 'next'.
-* nd/pack-objects-parseopt (2012-01-31) 1 commit

+timestamps near year 1970.

+
+The code to ask for password did not fall back to the terminal input when
+GIT_ASKPASS is set but does not work (e.g. lack of X with GUI askpass
+helper).

+ - t0300: use write_script helper
+ - tests: add write_script helper function
+
+Will merge to 'next'.
-Will merge to 'master' in the second batch.
+* jn/gitweb-search-utf-8 (2012-02-03) 1 commit

--------------------------------------------------
[Graduated to "master"]
-* ar/i18n-no-gettext (2012-01-27) 4 commits

- (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-23 at 6447013)
- + i18n of multi-line advice messages
-
-Allow localization of advice messages that tend to be longer and
-multi-line formatted. For now this is deliberately limited to advise()
-interface and not vreportf() in general as touching the latter has
-interactions with error() that has plumbing callers whose prefix "error: "
-should never be translated.
-
-* jl/submodule-re-add (2012-01-24) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-26 at 482553e)

- (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-23 at 9020ec4)
- + git-p4: label import fails with multiple labels at the same changelist

- + clone: fix up delay cloning conditions
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-23 at bee31c6)

-Moving large chunk of code out of cherry-pick/revert for later reuse,
-primarily to prepare for the next cycle.
-
-* tr/grep-l-with-decoration (2012-01-23) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-23 at 42b8795)
- + grep: fix -l/-L interaction with decoration lines
-
-Using "git grep -l/-L" together with options -W or --break may not make
-much sense as the output is to only count the number of hits and there is
-no place for file breaks, but the latter options made "-l/-L" to miscount
-the hits.

+ (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-23 at 4257553)
+ + merge: use editor by default in interactive sessions
+
+"git merge" in an interactive session learned to spawn the editor by
+default to let the user edit the auto-generated merge message, to
+encourage people to explain their merges better. Legacy scripts can
+export MERGE_AUTOEDIT=no to retain the historical behaviour.
+
+* tr/merge-edit-guidance (2012-01-31) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-31 at bb678f7)

+
+"git merge" adds advice text to the commit log template when running
+interactively.

* 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
- (merged to 'next' on 2012-01-05 at 954f125)
- + perl/Git.pm: "prompt" helper to honor GIT_ASKPASS and SSH_ASKPASS
+ - perl/Git.pm: "prompt" helper to honor GIT_ASKPASS and SSH_ASKPASS
The bottom one has been replaced with a rewrite based on comments from
Ævar. The second one needs more work, both in perl/Git.pm and prompt.c, to
give precedence to tty over SSH_ASKPASS when terminal is available.
-Will defer till the next cycle.
-
* nd/commit-ignore-i-t-a (2012-01-16) 2 commits
- commit, write-tree: allow to ignore CE_INTENT_TO_ADD while writing trees
- cache-tree: update API to take abitrary flags
May want to consider this as fixing an earlier UI mistake, and not as a
feature that devides the userbase.
-Will defer till the next cycle.
