+ failure from the underlying malloc(), which made the code complex
+ and thread-unsafe with dubious benefit, as major memory resource
+ users already do limit their uses with various other mechanisms.

+ + revision: allow --end-of-options to end option parsing
- Leakfix.
+ The command line parser learned "--end-of-options" notation; the
+ standard convention for scripters to have hardcoded set of options
+ first on the command line, and force the command to treat end-user
+ input as non-options, has been to use "--" as the delimiter, but
+ that would not work for commands that use "--" as a delimiter
+ between revs and pathspec.

+ Band-aid on "git clone --sparse:oid=X" that would hit BUG().
-* mh/release-commit-memory-fix (2019-08-26) 1 commit

+* js/rebase-r-strategy (2019-09-05) 17 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2019-09-07 at 71e2451f6c)
+ + t3427: accelerate this test by using fast-export and fast-import
+ + rebase -r: do not (re-)generate root commits with `--root` *and* `--onto`
+ + t3418: test `rebase -r` with merge strategies

+ + t3427: condense the unnecessarily repetitive test cases into three
+ + t3427: move the `filter-branch` invocation into the `setup` case
+ + t3427: simplify the `setup` test case significantly
+ + t3427: add a clarifying comment
+ + rebase: fold git-rebase--common into the -p backend
+ + sequencer: the `am` and `rebase--interactive` scripts are gone
+ + .gitignore: there is no longer a built-in `git-rebase--interactive`
+ + t3400: stop referring to the scripted rebase
+ + Drop unused git-rebase--am.sh
- Straighten out the use of strbuf_detach() API function.
+ "git rebase --rebase-merges" learned to drive different merge
+ strategies and pass strategy specific options to them.
