The --recurse-submodules option in 'git branch' has been fixed to

The reftable code has been optimized to avoid an unnecessary
stat/reload of the stack when an addition already holds the

The CI workflow groups all runs by commit hash using
`group: ${{ github.sha }}`. This means every push to a pull
request starts a separate workflow run, and all workflows
triggered by the same commit share the same concurrency group.
With this change, pull request runs are grouped by pull request
number instead of commit hash, and runs superseded by a newer
push are canceled. The concurrency group becomes
`${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.event.pull_request.number ||
github.sha }}` and `cancel-in-progress` is set to true for
pull request events.
For pull request events, the group is `<workflow>-<pull-request-number>`
(e.g., "main-workflow-42"). If you push a new commit to an
existing pull request before the CI working on it finishes, the
new request will be placed in the same group and cancel the
currently running run.
For non-pull-request events, the group is `${{ github.workflow }}-${{
github.sha }}` and `cancel-in-progress` defaults to false, so
there is no regression in behavior.
Note that the previous configuration used `group: ${{ github.sha }}`,
which meant all workflows sharing the same commit hash were in the
same group. The new configuration includes the workflow name in
the group, so each workflow has its own concurrency group per
commit/PR.

One of the stated goals of git-replay(1) is to allow implementing the
git-rebase(1) functionality on the server side.
The default mode of git-rebase(1) is to act as if `--no-rebase-merges`
was given. This mode drops merge commits instead of replaying them, and
linearizes the history into a sequence of regular (single-parent)
commits.
Add option `--linearize` to git-replay(1) to do the same. Each replayed
commit is stacked on top of the previously replayed one. When a merge is
encountered, the commits reachable from all of its sides are replayed
into the single line and the merge itself is dropped.
If a ref was pointing to a merge commit, that ref is updated to the
merge's last replayed ancestor.
git-replay(1) accepts multiple branches, for example:
$ git replay --onto main topic1 topic2
Without `--linearize` this replays 'topic1' and 'topic2' onto 'main'
(keeping shared portions of history shared and divergent parts
divergent) and updates both refs.
Due to current implementation limitations, replaying multiple branches
with `--linearize` is disallowed to avoid concatenating unrelated
histories into a single line. For the same reason disallow the use of
`--contained` with `--linearize`.
Users who want to linearize multiple branches are advised to do this in
separate git-replay(1) invocations. Linearizing multiple branches at
once might be added later.
Note that `--linearize` is not modeled after git-rebase(1)'s
`--rebase-merges[=<mode>]` interface. Recreating merges, by preserving
their topology, is a distinct operation that would be a separate mode.
`--linearize` only drops merges and replays commits linearly. So
git-replay(1) uses its own option rather than reusing that interface.

Depending on what gets passed into the function pick_regular_commit(),
it decides the new base for the replayed commit. It first tries to find
the replayed results of `pickme`'s parent in the `replayed_commits` map.
If not found, it falls back to `onto`.
When using git-replay(1) with --onto, the fallback is the revision
passed in with this option, but when using --revert, the fallback is
`last_commit`.
It's rather confusing the base is decided partly inside
pick_regular_commit() and partly by its caller.
Move the base selection completely into the caller: replay_revisions().
This bundles all the logic of deciding on the base together. Also, this
reduces the number of parameters of pick_regular_commit(), making its
interface cleaner.
This refactoring doesn't bring any behavior changes.

The object database layer has been simplified by eagerly loading
alternate object directories upon initialization, instead of

for scattered lazy-loading calls throughout the codebase and paves

The object database (odb) API has been refactored to distinguish
between missing objects and corrupt ones by returning more

When "git checkout -m" stashes the user's local changes and then fails
to re-apply them because of conflicts, the conflict advice is printed
directly on top of the branch-switch message ("Switched to branch ..."),
making the two messages hard to tell apart. Print a blank line in
between when the stash apply conflicted, so that the advice and the
branch-switch message are visually distinct.
To learn whether the stash apply resulted in conflicts, make the
autostash apply functions return 1 when the stash could not be applied
due to conflicts (and was stored back), while success and error remain
0 and -1 respectively. Checkout can then use the return value to decide
whether to print the blank line.

Given a state in which the cross-references between the worktree and
the repository (specifically worktree/id/gitdir in the main repository
and the .git file in the worktree) are recorded using absolute paths,
setting 'worktree.useRelativePaths=true' and running 'git worktree
repair' within the main worktree converts them to relative paths.
Conversely, given a state in which the cross-references are recorded
using relative paths, one would expect that setting
'worktree.useRelativePaths=false' and running 'git worktree repair'
would convert them to absolute paths. However, they remain as relative
paths.
This is because we incorrectly use read_gitfile_gently(), which always
returns an absolute path. To fix this, introduce read_gitfile_raw(),
which reads the path from the .git file without resolving it to an
absolute path.
Because read_gitfile_raw() does not validate the path with
is_git_directory(), repair_gitfile() performs this validation to
preserve the existing behavior.

When 'git worktree add <path>' is invoked without <commit-ish> and
with the --guess-remote option (or when worktree.guessRemote is set to
true), it tries to find a remote-tracking branch matching the basename
of <path>.
Currently, the behavior when multiple matches are found is the same as
when no match is found: it falls back to creating a branch from
HEAD. This has been the behavior since 71d6682d8c (worktree: add
--guess-remote option to add subcommand, 2017-11-29), when the option
was first introduced.
However, if the specified <path> matches any remote-tracking branch,
we infer that the user intended to use one of the remote-tracking
branches as the start-point rather than HEAD. So we abort the creation
of the branch and worktree when there are multiple matches, and
instruct the user to choose the start-point.

When the user runs 'git worktree add ../foo-dir bar-topic' without
specifying a remote, and there is no local branch named bar-topic, we
try to guess which remote branch bar-topic refers to, then create a
new branch named bar-topic that tracks the remote branch.
If multiple remotes have a branch named bar-topic, we silently gave
up, leaving the variable 'branch' intact. We then entered the
conditional clause 'if (!opts.orphan &&
!lookup_commit_reference_by_name(branch))' and triggered an "invalid
reference" error. This error message did not provide enough
information to resolve the ambiguity.
When multiple matching branches are found, display a hint and a
