commands.

of the option-parsing code, has been restored.

'git receive-pack' has been refactored to use ODB transaction
interfaces instead of directly managing 'tmp_objdir' for staging
incoming objects, bringing it closer to being ODB backend agnostic.

+ odb/source-packed: improve lookup when enumerating objects
+ Merge branch 'ps/odb-drop-whence' into ps/odb-for-each-object-filter

The object database enumeration interface odb_for_each_object() has
been taught to accept object filters, allowing the underlying backends
to optimize the traversal by using reachability bitmaps when
available. 'git cat-file --batch-all-objects' has been updated to use
this generic interface, simplifying its code and avoiding direct
access to ODB backend internals.

A redundant strbuf_reset() call in the 'HAVE_GETDELIM' path of
strbuf_getwholeline() has been removed, as getdelim() overwrites the
buffer and the length is updated afterward.

(merged to 'next' on 2026-07-16 at 621ca4ca5f)
+ t1100: move creation of expected output into setup test
+ t1100: modernize test style

The test script 't/t1100-commit-tree-options.sh' has been modernized
by converting test cases to the modern style (using single quotes and
tab indentation) and moving the creation of the expected file inside
the setup test so it runs under the protection of the test harness.

- builtin/clone: fix segfault when using --revision with protocol v0

Support for skipping the editor when continuing a rebase after
conflict resolution has been added with the '--no-edit' option, and
forcing it with '--edit'. A new configuration variable
'rebase.noEdit' can be used to set the default behavior.
'git clone --revision' talking to a server that does not support
protocol v2 (falling back to protocol v0) segfaulted, which has

- mv: check for missing destination directory before renaming
- mv: name both source and destination when rename fails

'git mv' has been updated to check for a missing destination
leading directory during the checking phase, allowing 'git mv -n'
to report the failure. The error message when the rename(2)
syscall fails has also been improved to name both the source and
the destination.

- odb: make creation of on-disk structures pluggable
- odb/source: introduce function to map source type to name
- setup: defer object database creation
- setup: detangle loading of loose object maps
- loose: load loose object map for the correct source

The creation of the on-disk data structures for the object database
has been made pluggable, allowing future backends to customize their
setup. As part of this, the initialization of the object database
has been deferred, and the loading of the loose-object map has been
detangled from repository initialization.

The 'git stash push' command has been optimized to avoid unnecessary
sparse index expansion when pathspecs are wholly inside the
sparse-checkout cone. Also, a potential out-of-bounds read in the
sparse-index expansion check helper pathspec_needs_expanded_index()
has been fixed by consistently using the parsed, prefixed path.

together. When both are given, non-cruft packs are rolled up by the
geometric repack as usual, while a separate cruft pack is written to

- pack-objects: support '--refs-snapshot' with 'follow-reachable'
- pack-objects: introduce '--stdin-packs=follow-reachable'
- pack-objects: extract `stdin_packs_add_all_pack_entries()`

- repack: teach MIDX retention about geometric rollups
- repack: mark geometric progression of packs as retained
- repack: extract `locate_existing_pack()` helper
- repack: unconditionally exclude non-kept packs

'git repack' has been taught to accept '--geometric' and '--cruft'
together. When both are given, non-cruft packs are rolled up by the
geometric repack as usual, while a separate cruft pack is written to
collect unreachable objects.
