+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 403bbbb)
+ + t7800: readlink may not be available

+
+ A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to

+ + add--interactive: respect diff.compactionHeuristic
+
+ "git add -i/-p" learned to honor diff.compactionHeuristic
+ experimental knob, so that the user can work on the same hunk split
+ as "git diff" output.
+
+
+* jk/bisect-show-tree (2016-06-16) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 6970f87e)
+ + bisect: always call setup_revisions after init_revisions
+
+ "git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when
+ bisection finds the culprit, but this call did not initialize the
+ data structure to pass to the diff-tree API correctly.
+
+
+* jk/gpg-interface-cleanup (2016-06-17) 7 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at eed3498)
+ + gpg-interface: check gpg signature creation status
+ + sign_buffer: use pipe_command
+ + verify_signed_buffer: use pipe_command
+ + run-command: add pipe_command helper
+ + verify_signed_buffer: use tempfile object
+ + verify_signed_buffer: drop pbuf variable
+ + gpg-interface: use child_process.args
+
+ A new run-command API function pipe_command() is introduced to
+ sanely feed data to the standard input while capturing data from
+ the standard output and the standard error of an external process,
+ which is cumbersome to hand-roll correctly without deadlocking.
+
+ The codepath to sign data in a prepared buffer with GPG has been
+ updated to use this API to read from the status-fd to check for
+ errors (instead of relying on GPG's exit status).
+
+
+* jk/parseopt-string-list (2016-06-13) 3 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 27462e6)
+ + blame,shortlog: don't make local option variables static
+ + interpret-trailers: don't duplicate option strings
+ + parse_opt_string_list: stop allocating new strings
+ (this branch is used by jk/string-list-static-init.)
+
+ The command line argument parsing that uses OPT_STRING_LIST() often
+ made a copy of the argv[] element, which was unnecessary.
+
+
+* jk/repack-keep-unreachable (2016-06-14) 3 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 802b849)
+ + repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
+ + repack: add --keep-unreachable option
+ + repack: document --unpack-unreachable option
+
+ "git repack" learned the "--keep-unreachable" option, which sends
+ loose unreachable objects to a pack instead of leaving them loose.
+ This helps heuristics based on the number of loose objects
+ (e.g. "gc --auto").
+
+
+* jk/send-pack-stdio (2016-06-10) 2 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 2cfb0ff)

+
+
+* jk/string-list-static-init (2016-06-13) 2 commits

+ + use string_list initializer consistently
+ + Merge branch 'jk/parseopt-string-list' into jk/string-list-static-init
+ (this branch uses jk/parseopt-string-list.)
+
+ Instead of taking advantage of a struct string_list that is
+ allocated with all NULs happens to be STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP kind,
+ initialize them explicitly as such, to document their behaviour
+ better.
+
+
+* jk/tzoffset-fix (2016-06-20) 3 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 08ec8c5)
+ + local_tzoffset: detect errors from tm_to_time_t
+ + t0006: test various date formats
+ + t0006: rename test-date's "show" to "relative"
+
+ The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
+ prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
+ bogus offset value to the caller.  Use a more benign looking
+ +0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
+ of aborting.
+
+
+* jk/upload-pack-hook (2016-06-02) 7 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at e5e5bb6)
+ + upload-pack: provide a hook for running pack-objects
+ + t1308: do not get fooled by symbolic links to the source tree
+ + config: add a notion of "scope"
+ + config: return configset value for current_config_ functions
+ + config: set up config_source for command-line config
+ + git_config_parse_parameter: refactor cleanup code
+ + git_config_with_options: drop "found" counting
+
+ "upload-pack" allows a custom "git pack-objects" replacement when
+ responding to "fetch/clone" via the uploadpack.packObjectsHook.
+
+
+* js/mingw-parameter-less-c-functions (2016-06-20) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at e673c65)
+ + mingw: let the build succeed with DEVELOPER=1

+ functions that do not take any parameters, which has been
+ corrected.
+
+
+* js/perf-on-apple (2016-06-21) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 83529b9)

+* km/fetch-do-not-free-remote-name (2016-06-14) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 4bc34c4)
+ + builtin/fetch.c: don't free remote->name after fetch
+
+ The ownership rule for the piece of memory that hold references to

+
+* lc/shell-default-value-noexpand (2016-06-19) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 2dc7727)
+ + sh-setup: enclose setting of ${VAR=default} in double-quotes
+
+ Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'
+ to set the default value, without enclosing it in double quotes.
+
+
+* lf/sideband-returns-void (2016-06-16) 2 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-27 at 558c781)
+ + upload-pack.c: make send_client_data() return void

+ + Documentation/technical: signed commit format
+ + Documentation/technical: signed tag format

+* nd/graph-width-padded (2016-06-16) 2 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at 0f733ef)
+ + pretty.c: support <direction>|(<negative number>) forms
+ + pretty: pass graph width to pretty formatting for use in '%>|(N)'
+
+ "log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
+ relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to
+ draw text that is to the right of the ancestry-graph section.  It
+ also now accepts negative N that means the column limit is relative
+ to the right border.

+* sb/clone-shallow-passthru (2016-06-20) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2016-06-28 at d515d7d)
+ + clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodules
+ (this branch is used by sb/t5614-modernize.)
+
+ Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
+ that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
+ be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
+ of the submodules are not prepared for.
+
