Git 2.54 (final) has been tagged. Thank you, everybody, for
participating. I will go offline for a couple of weeks starting
this evening, hopefully after updating 'next' and possibly also
pushing out the first batch of the new cycle. There is no
designated interim maintainer this time, but I trust that the
community can self organize if the shape of the release and the tree
turns out to be super bad ;-).
Git 2.54 has been released, and the tip of 'next' has acquired a
handful more topics, but no update to 'master' yet to kick off the
new cycle has happened (yet). I will go offline for a couple of

* pw/status-rebase-todo (2026-04-20) 2 commits
- status: improve rebase todo list parsing
- sequencer: factor out parsing of todo commands

The display of the rebase todo list in "git status" has been
improved to correctly abbreviate object IDs for more commands and
avoid misinterpreting refs as object IDs.

Needs review.

(merged to 'next' on 2026-04-20 at 6539524ca2)
+ t5563: add tests for http.emptyAuth with Negotiate
+ http: attempt Negotiate auth in http.emptyAuth=auto mode
+ http: extract http_reauth_prepare() from retry paths

The 'http.emptyAuth=auto' configuration now correctly attempts
Negotiate authentication before falling back to manual credentials.
This allows seamless Kerberos ticket-based authentication without
requiring users to explicitly set 'http.emptyAuth=true'.
