Concurrent downloads of packfiles via packfile URIs and dumb HTTP are
safer by avoiding concurrent appends to the staging file. Opening in
read-write mode with separate file offsets prevents corruption and
preserves resumability. 'fetch-pack' now tolerates pre-existing
'.keep' files.
* tn/packfile-uri-concurrency:
fetch-pack: accept "pack" output for packfile URIs
http: permit unlinking partial packs on Windows
http: avoid concurrent appends to partial packs
http: accept HTTP 416 for complete partial packs
http: avoid closing index-pack input twice
http-fetch: correct --index-pack-arg documentation
The 'TRACE2_ANCESTRY' prerequisite in the 't0213' test script has been
refined to avoid failures under user-mode emulation by verifying that
the ancestry collector reports the expected process names rather than
the emulator binary name.
* jm/t0213-skip-emulated-ancestry-tests:
t0213: skip ancestry tests under user-mode emulation
A crash in the 'sparse-index' collapse code when encountering an
invalidated cache-tree node (due to an intent-to-add path) has been
fixed by avoiding collapsing such subtrees.
* ds/sparse-index-ita-crash:
sparse-index: avoid crash on intent-to-add entry outside the cone
A boundary case check in reachability bitmap traversal has been
corrected to properly handle the object at position zero, which was
previously skipped, leading to redundant bitmap loading.
* dl/pack-bitmap-position-zero:
pack-bitmap: handle objects at bitmap position zero
A memory leak in 'git merge' when run without arguments (which
triggers the default-to-upstream path) has been fixed. A test has
been added to cover this case.
* tc/merge-default-to-upstream-leakfix:
merge: fix leak with merge.defaultToUpstream
'git cat-file --batch-command' that asked for 'contents' without
'type' segfaults, which has been corrected.
* jk/cat-file-batch-wo-type-fix:
cat-file: handle content request for --batch-command without type
The get_commit_action() function has been refactored to be a pure
predicate by moving the side-effecting line-level log range folding to
simplify_commit(). This ensures that evaluating a commit's action
before the walk reaches it does not prematurely mutate its tracked
line ranges, making it safer for potential lookahead evaluations.
* mm/revision-pure-get-commit-action:
revision: make get_commit_action() a pure predicate
The code path that deals with relative paths in the 'diff-lib' has
been cleaned up.
* jk/diff-relative-cached-unmerged-more:
diff-lib: skip paths outside prefix in oneway_diff()
diff-lib: drop stale comment about advancing o->pos
Git for Windows has been updated to avoid auto-detecting the symlink
type if the target path starts with a slash, preventing NTLM
credential leaks when checking out repositories with crafted
symbolic links pointing to network shares.
* js/mingw-symlink-net-share-leak:
mingw: skip symlink type auto-detection for network share targets
The alias tests in 't/t0014-alias.sh' have been updated to dynamically
query the list of deprecated commands using 'git
--list-cmds=deprecated' to avoid test failures when running with
'WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES' in a build directory that contains stale
executables of formerly deprecated commands.
* jk/t0014-dynamic-deprecated-cmds:
t0014: generate deprecated command names dynamically
t0014: factor out choice of deprecated commands
The image version used by the static-analysis CI job has been bumped
to ubuntu-latest (Ubuntu 24.04), which brings in a newer Coccinelle
version that resolves a severe performance regression. A false
positive warning from the 'CHECK_ASSERTION_SIDE_EFFECTS' build with
GCC 15 in the Bloom filter code has also been silenced to facilitate
the image upgrade.
* jk/ci-static-analysis-image-bump:
ci: bump ubuntu image version for static-analysis job
bloom: silence CHECK_ASSERTION_SIDE_EFFECTS false positive
'git branch -d' has been taught to report when a branch cannot be
deleted because it is being used in an active bisect run.
* rs/branch-delete-bisect-warning:
branch: report active bisect run when rejecting delete
Object database housekeeping in 'git gc' and 'git maintenance' has
been refactored to be pluggable. The files-backend-specific logic,
including incremental and geometric repacking as well as object
pruning, has been moved out of the command implementation and into the
files object database source, enabling future alternative object
database backends to implement their own housekeeping services.
* ps/odb-pluggable-housekeeping:
odb: make optimizations pluggable
builtin/gc: fix signedness issues in ODB-related functionality
builtin/gc: refactor ODB optimizations to operate on "files" source
builtin/gc: introduce `odb_optimize_required()`
builtin/gc: move geometric repacking into `odb_optimize()`
builtin/gc: introduce object database optimization options
builtin/gc: inline config values specific to the "files" backend
builtin/gc: make repack arguments self-contained
builtin/gc: extract object database optimizations into separate function
builtin/gc: move worktree and rerere tasks before object optimizations
odb: run "pre-auto-gc" hook for all maintenance tasks
t7900: simplify how we check for maintenance tasks
Two bugs in how 'git rebase' handles skipped 'fixup' and 'squash'
commands have been fixed. One bug caused an incorrect commit count to
be shown in the template message when multiple commands were skipped,
and another prevented the editor from opening when the final command
in a chain containing 'fixup -c' was skipped.
* pw/rebase-fixup-fixes:
rebase: remember fixup -c after skipping fixup/squash
rebase -i: fix counting of fixups after rebase --skip
'git diff --relative' running with '--cached' has been corrected to
avoid a segfault when encountering unmerged paths outside the
prefix.
* jk/diff-relative-cached-unmerged:
diff-lib: add idx/tree sanity check to oneway_diff
diff: ignore unmerged paths outside prefix with --relative --cached
Ben uses the +github GMail trick to identify emails sent to him by folks
that found his GitHub profile. At the time, that also meant he had to
commit under the same email for GitHub to recognize his commits. He has
since found out that GitHub can be configured with more than one email
for identification, and he would prefer his canonical email to omit
mention of GitHub (where it's not relevant) going forward.

The `chriscool@tuxfamily.org` address is an old one that I don't use
anymore, while `christian.couder@gmail.com` is the address I have been
sending patches from for a long time.
Let's swap the two addresses in the existing entry, so that the Gmail
address becomes the primary one and the old tuxfamily.org address is
mapped to it. This way both addresses still resolve to the same person,
and the address I actually use is the canonical one.

Tests for 'git merge-base --is-ancestor' have been added to cover
exit codes (0 for success, 1 for non-ancestor, 128 for errors) and
to ensure it cannot be combined with '--all'.
* ns/merge-base-is-ancestor-tests:
merge-base: add tests for --is-ancestor
'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.
* lo/mv-missing-dest-dir-check:
mv: reject a destination whose leading path is missing or a symlink
mv: name both source and destination when rename fails
Documentation for 'git replay' has been updated to refer to its
configuration variables.
* kh/doc-replay-config:
doc: replay: move “default” to the right-hand side
doc: replay: use a nested description list
doc: replay: improve config description
doc: link to config for git-replay(1)
A new test helper commit_body() has been introduced to print the
message body of a commit, and various tests have been updated to use
it instead of spelling out the command pipeline manually and losing
the exit status of the 'git cat-file' command on the upstream of the
pipe.
* sk/test-commit-body-helper:
t: use commit_body to extract commit message bodies
test-lib-functions: add commit_body helper
Synopsis and options in the documentation for 'git format-patch',
'git imap-send', 'git send-email', and 'git request-pull' have been
updated to the modern style.

'.gitmodules' with the URLs of configured remotes.
* en/submodule-insteadof-remote-match:
submodule: resolve insteadOf aliases when matching remote
rewrites_release() in 'remote.c' has been updated to free 'struct
rewrite' instances, their '.instead_of' arrays, and their contents.
* jc/remote-insteadof-leakfix:

A segfault when 'git clone --revision' talks to a server that does not
support protocol v2 (falling back to protocol v0) has been corrected.
* af/clone-revision-v0-segfault-fix:
builtin/clone: fix segfault when using --revision with protocol v0
Traversals with '--exclude-first-parent-only' have been corrected
to properly stop after the first parent even when it has already
been marked as 'SEEN'.
* jc/exclude-first-parent-seen:
revision: honor --exclude-first-parent-only with SEEN first parent
When the push remote is specified as a URL, the fetch refspec of a

The logic to write loose objects has been refactored and moved from
'object-file.c' to the loose backend source file 'odb/source-loose.c',
making the loose backend more self-contained. This is achieved by
first refactoring force_object_loose() to use generic ODB write
interfaces instead of loose-backend internals.

The object ID shortening and linking in the 'commitdiff' view of
'gitweb' has been corrected to work even when the index line carries
a trailing file mode.
* tl/gitweb-shorten-hashes-with-modes:
gitweb: shorten index hashes with trailing file modes
The 'remote-object-info' command has been added to 'git cat-file
--batch-command', allowing clients to request object metadata
(currently size) from a remote server via protocol v2 without
downloading the entire object. Format placeholders are dynamically
filtered on the client based on server-advertised capabilities,
returning empty strings for inapplicable or unsupported fields.
* ps/cat-file-remote-object-info:
cat-file: make remote-object-info allow-list adapt to the server

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.
* tn/stash-avoid-sparse-index-expansion:
