v2.9.3 has been tagged as the third maintenance release for 2.9
|
||||
series. I am planning to tag v2.10-rc0 preview this weekend. As
|
||||
the topics that are still in-flight (either in 'pu' or still
|
||||
outside) are mostly multi-patch series that can have large impact,
|
||||
I think it is safe to say that they are not likely to be in the
|
||||
upcoming 2.10 but some of them may hit 'next' during the pre-release
|
||||
feature freeze. We'll see.

The preview for the upcoming 2.10 release has been tagged as

v2.10.0-rc0.

+ http-backend: buffer headers before sending

|

The http-backend (the server-side component of smart-http
|
||||
transport) used to trickle the HTTP header one at a time. Now
|

these write(2)s are batched.

+ import-tars: support hard links
|
||||
|
||||
"import-tars" fast-import script (in contrib/) used to ignore a
|
||||
hardlink target and replaced it with an empty file, which has been
|

corrected to record the same blob as the other file the hardlink is
|

shared with.

|
||||
+ git mv: do not keep slash in `git mv dir non-existing-dir/`
|
||||
|
||||
"git mv dir non-existing-dir/" did not work in some environments
|
||||
the same way as existing mainstream platforms. The code now moves
|
||||
"dir" to "non-existing-dir", without relying on rename("A", "B/")
|
||||
that strips the trailing slash of '/'.

* kw/patch-ids-optim (2016-08-11) 4 commits

|
||||
+ rebase: avoid computing unnecessary patch IDs
|
||||
+ patch-ids: add flag to create the diff patch id using header only data
|
||||
+ patch-ids: replace the seen indicator with a commit pointer
|
||||
+ patch-ids: stop using a hand-rolled hashmap implementation
|
||||
|
||||
When "git rebase" tries to compare set of changes on the updated
|
||||
upstream and our own branch, it computes patch-id for all of these
|
||||
changes and attempts to find matches. This has been optimized by
|
||||
lazily computing the full patch-id (which is expensive) to be
|
||||
compared only for changes that touch the same set of paths.

|

- help: make option --help open man pages only for Git commands
|
||||
|
||||
"git nosuchcommand --help" said "No manual entry for gitnosuchcommand",
|
||||
which was not intuitive, given that "git nosuchcommand" said "git:
|
||||
'nosuchcommand' is not a git command".
|
||||
|

"git help everyday" seems to get broken with this change, though.

* jk/difftool-command-not-found (2016-08-14) 1 commit
|
||||
- difftool: always honor "command not found" exit code
|
||||
|
||||
"git difftool" by default ignores the error exit from the backend
|
||||
commands it spawns, because often they signal that they found
|
||||
differences by exiting with a non-zero status code just like "diff"
|
||||
does; the exit status codes 126 and 127 however are special in that
|
||||
they are used to signal that the command is not executable or does
|
||||
not exist. "git difftool" has been taught to notice these exit
|
||||
status codes.
|
||||
|
||||
Will merge to 'next'.

* jk/tighten-alloc (2016-08-13) 2 commits

- merge-recursive: fix verbose output for multiple base trees
|
||||
- commit: factor out set_merge_remote_desc()
|
||||
- commit: use xstrdup() in get_merge_parent()
|
||||
|
||||
When "git merge-recursive" works on history with many criss-cross
|
||||
merges in "verbose" mode, the names the command assigns to the
|
||||
virtual merge bases could have overwritten each other by unintended
|
||||
reuse of the same piece of memory.
|
||||
|
||||
Will merge to 'next'.
