What's cooking in git.git (Oct 2015, #02; Wed, 7)
--------------------------------------------------

Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.

A set of releases for a handful of maintenance tracks have been
tagged (v2.6.1, v2.5.4, v2.4.10 and v2.3.10), thanks to Blake
Burkhart and Jeff King.
The tip of 'next' has been rewound and rebuilt. I plan to start
merging the topics that have been cooking just above 'next' down in
the coming days.

With somewhat reduced review bandwidth, I'd expect that the upcoming
cycle would be slower than usual. At tinyurl.com/gitCal, I

[Graduated to "master"]

* ad/bisect-terms (2015-08-03) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-01 at ede6e64)
+ bisect: allow setting any user-specified in 'git bisect start'
+ bisect: add 'git bisect terms' to view the current terms
+ bisect: add the terms old/new
+ bisect: sanity check on terms
* gb/filter-branch-progress (2015-09-21) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 15e698d)
+ filter-branch: make report-progress more readable
+ filter-branch: add passed/remaining seconds on progress

The use of 'good/bad' in "git bisect" made it confusing to use when
hunting for a state change that is not a regression (e.g. bugfix).
The command learned 'old/new' and then allows the end user to
say e.g. "bisect start --term-old=fast --term=new=slow" to find a
performance regression.

Michael's idea to make 'good/bad' more intelligent does have
certain attractiveness ($gname/272867), and may make some of
the work on this topic a moot point, though.
Give progress meter to "git filter-branch".


* as/subtree-with-spaces (2015-09-08) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-09 at f3d763d)
+ contrib/subtree: respect spaces in a repository path
+ t7900-subtree: test the "space in a subdirectory name" case
* ls/p4-path-encoding (2015-09-21) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 0772d82)
+ git-p4: use replacement character for non UTF-8 characters in paths
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-17 at 7f8b9e0)
+ git-p4: improve path encoding verbose output
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 56514f9)
+ git-p4: add config git-p4.pathEncoding

Update "git subtree" (in contrib/) so that it can take whitespaces
in the pathnames, not only in the in-tree pathname but the name of
the directory that the repository is in.
"git p4" learned to reencode the pathname it uses to communicate
with the p4 depot with a new option.


* bb/remote-get-url (2015-09-17) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at c07a1e8)
+ remote: add get-url subcommand
* nd/ignore-then-not-ignore (2015-09-21) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 2182591)
+ dir.c: don't exclude whole dir prematurely if neg pattern may match
+ dir.c: make last_exclude_matching_from_list() run til the end

"git remote" learned "get-url" subcommand to show the URL for a
given remote name used for fetching and pushing.
Allow a later "!/abc/def" to override an earlier "/abc" that
appears in the same .gitignore file to make it easier to express
"everything in /abc directory is ignored, except for ...".


* dt/refs-bisection (2015-09-01) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 2b66bad)
+ refs: make refs/bisect/* per-worktree
+ path: optimize common dir checking
+ refs: clean up common_list
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb.)
* ti/glibc-stdio-mutex-from-signal-handler (2015-09-04) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at c8047ba)
+ pager: don't use unsafe functions in signal handlers

Move the refs used during a "git bisect" session to per-worktree
hierarchy refs/worktree/* so that independent bisect sessions can
be done in different worktrees.

The second commit may or may not want to be reverted.


* jc/rerere (2015-07-24) 21 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-08-26 at 8ae15ef)

* jh/quiltimport-explicit-series-file (2015-09-01) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-02 at 1129ca4)
+ git-quiltimport: add commandline option --series <file>

"quiltimport" allows to specify the series file by honoring the
$QUILT_SERIES environment and also --series command line option.


* jk/async-pkt-line (2015-09-01) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-02 at e185717)
+ pkt-line: show packets in async processes as "sideband"
+ run-command: provide in_async query function

The debugging infrastructure for pkt-line based communication has
been improved to mark the side-band communication specifically.


* jk/blame-first-parent (2015-09-16) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 7580f6b)
+ blame: handle --first-parent

"git blame --first-parent v1.0..v2.0" was not rejected but did not
limit the blame to commits on the first parent chain.


* jk/connect-clear-env (2015-09-08) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 86b64f7)
+ git_connect: clarify conn->use_shell flag
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-06 at 9ddbed8)
+ git_connect: clear GIT_* environment for ssh

The ssh transport, just like any other transport over the network,
did not clear GIT_* environment variables, but it is possible to
use SendEnv and AcceptEnv to leak them to the remote invocation of
Git, which is not a good idea at all. Explicitly clear them just
like we do for the local transport.


* jk/date-local (2015-09-03) 11 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 66781d9)
+ t6300: add tests for "-local" date formats
+ t6300: make UTC and local dates different
+ date: make "local" orthogonal to date format
+ date: check for "local" before anything else
+ t6300: add test for "raw" date format
+ t6300: introduce test_date() helper
+ fast-import: switch crash-report date to iso8601
+ Documentation/rev-list: don't list date formats
+ Documentation/git-for-each-ref: don't list date formats
+ Documentation/config: don't list date formats
+ Documentation/blame-options: don't list date formats

"git log --date=local" used to only show the normal (default)
format in the local timezone. The command learned to take 'local'
as an instruction to use the local timezone with other formats,
e.g. "git show --date=rfc-local".


* jk/interpret-trailers-outside-a-repository (2015-09-08) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-09 at a75fce3)
+ interpret-trailers: allow running outside a repository

Allow "git interpret-trailers" to run outside of a Git repository.


* jk/make-findstring-makeflags-fix (2015-09-10) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 26ea6e0)
+ Makefile: fix MAKEFLAGS tests with multiple flags

Customization to change the behaviour with "make -w" and "make -s"
in our Makefile was broken when they were used together.


* jk/rebase-no-autostash (2015-09-10) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 034d726)
+ Documentation/git-rebase: fix --no-autostash formatting
+ rebase: support --no-autostash

There was no way to defeat a configured rebase.autostash variable
from the command line, as "git rebase --no-autostash" was missing.


* jk/test-lint-forbid-when-finished-in-subshell (2015-09-08) 5 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-09 at 74ede61)
+ test-lib-functions: detect test_when_finished in subshell
+ t7800: don't use test_config in a subshell
+ test-lib-functions: support "test_config -C <dir> ..."
+ t5801: don't use test_when_finished in a subshell
+ t7610: don't use test_config in a subshell

Because "test_when_finished" in our test framework queues the
clean-up tasks to be done in a shell variable, it should not be
used inside a subshell. Add a mechanism to allow 'bash' to catch
such uses, and fix the ones that were found.


* jw/make-arflags-customizable (2015-09-10) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at cb3892c1)
+ Makefile: allow $(ARFLAGS) specified from the command line

The Makefile always runs the library archiver with hardcoded "crs"
options, which was inconvenient for exotic platforms on which
people want to use programs with totally different set of command
line options.


* kn/for-each-tag (2015-09-17) 17 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-17 at 1980952)
+ tag.c: implement '--merged' and '--no-merged' options
+ tag.c: implement '--format' option
+ tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs
+ tag.c: use 'ref-filter' data structures
+ ref-filter: add option to match literal pattern
+ ref-filter: add support to sort by version
+ ref-filter: add support for %(contents:lines=X)
+ ref-filter: add option to filter out tags, branches and remotes
+ ref-filter: implement an `align` atom
+ ref-filter: introduce match_atom_name()
+ ref-filter: introduce handler function for each atom
+ utf8: add function to align a string into given strbuf
+ ref-filter: introduce ref_formatting_state and ref_formatting_stack
+ ref-filter: move `struct atom_value` to ref-filter.c
+ strtoul_ui: reject negative values
+ Merge 'jk/git-path' into kn/for-each-tag
+ Merge 'kn/for-each-tag-branch' into kn/for-each-tag
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb, kn/for-each-branch and kn/for-each-branch-remainder; uses kn/for-each-tag-branch.)

The "ref-filter" code was taught about many parts of what "tag -l"
does and then "tag -l" is being reimplemented in terms of "ref-filter".


* kn/for-each-tag-branch (2015-08-03) 11 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-08-03 at d9e94b9)
+ for-each-ref: add '--contains' option
+ ref-filter: implement '--contains' option
+ parse-options.h: add macros for '--contains' option
+ parse-option: rename parse_opt_with_commit()
+ for-each-ref: add '--merged' and '--no-merged' options
+ ref-filter: implement '--merged' and '--no-merged' options
+ ref-filter: add parse_opt_merge_filter()
+ for-each-ref: add '--points-at' option
+ ref-filter: implement '--points-at' option
+ tag: libify parse_opt_points_at()
+ t6302: for-each-ref tests for ref-filter APIs
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb, kn/for-each-branch, kn/for-each-branch-remainder and kn/for-each-tag.)

Originally merged to 'next' on 2015-07-15

Some features from "git tag -l" and "git branch -l" have been made
available to "git for-each-ref" so that eventually the unified
implementation can be shared across all three, in a follow-up
series or two.


* ld/p4-import-labels (2015-08-28) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-01 at cf9f1d6)
+ git-p4: fix P4 label import for unprocessed commits
+ git-p4: do not terminate creating tag for unknown commit
+ git-p4: failing test for ignoring invalid p4 labels

Correct "git p4 --detect-labels" so that it does not fail to create
a tag that points at a commit that is also being imported.


* mm/keyid-docs (2015-09-21) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at f50ccab)
+ Documentation: explain optional arguments better
+ Documentation/grep: fix documentation of -O
+ Documentation: use 'keyid' consistently, not 'key-id'

Very small number of options take a parameter that is optional
(which is not a great UI element as they can only appear at the end
of the command line). Add notice to documentation of each and
every one of them.


* nk/stash-show-config (2015-08-31) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at 90dd06f)
+ stash: allow "stash show" diff output configurable

Users who are too busy to type three extra keystrokes to ask for
"git stash show -p" can now set stash.showPatch configuration
varible to true to always see the actual patch, not just the list
of paths affected with feel for the extent of damage via diffstat.


* sb/submodule-helper (2015-09-08) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-21 at 9354b31)
+ submodule: rewrite `module_clone` shell function in C
+ submodule: rewrite `module_name` shell function in C
+ submodule: rewrite `module_list` shell function in C
+ Merge 'hv/submodule-config' to 'sb/submodule-helper'
(this branch is used by dt/refs-backend-lmdb and sb/submodule-parallel-fetch.)

The infrastructure to rewrite "git submodule" in C is being built
incrementally. Let's polish these early parts well enough and make
them graduate to 'next' and 'master', so that the more involved
follow-up can start cooking on a solid ground.
Allocation related functions and stdio are unsafe things to call
inside a signal handler, and indeed killing the pager can cause
glibc to deadlock waiting on allocation mutex as our signal handler
tries to free() some data structures in wait_for_pager(). Reduce
these unsafe calls.

+ pager: don't use unsafe functions in signal handlers

glibc to deadlock waiting on allocation mutex as our signal handler
tries to free() some data structures in wait_for_pager(). Reduce
these unsafe calls.
