-* js/diff-rename-force-stable-sort (2019-10-02) 2 commits
- (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-04 at e02d882510)
- + diffcore_rename(): use a stable sort
- + Move git_sort(), a stable sort, into into libgit.a
-
- The rename detection logic sorts a list of rename source candidates
- by similarity to pick the best candidate, which means that a tie
- between sources with the same similarity is broken by the original
- location in the original candidate list (which is sorted by path).
- Force the sorting by similarity done with a stable sort, which is
- not promised by system supplied qsort(3), to ensure consistent
- results across platforms.

-
-* js/fetch-jobs (2019-10-06) 1 commit
- (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-07 at e798bac35d)
- + fetch: let --jobs=<n> parallelize --multiple, too
-
- "git fetch --jobs=<n>" allowed <n> parallel jobs when fetching
- submodules, but this did not apply to "git fetch --multiple" that
- fetches from multiple remote repositories. It now does.
-
-

+* bb/utf8-wcwidth-cleanup (2019-10-12) 1 commit
+ (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-15 at 92ba59e1d6)
+ + utf8: use ARRAY_SIZE() in git_wcwidth()
- "git range-diff" segfaulted when diff.noprefix configuration was
- used, as it blindly expected the patch it internally generates to
- have the standard a/ and b/ prefixes. The command now forces the
- internal patch to be built without any prefix, not to be affected
- by any end-user configuration.
+ Code cleanup.
-* js/stash-apply-in-secondary-worktree (2019-10-06) 1 commit

+ (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-15 at 93c9949b6a)
+ + format-patch: create leading components of output directory
- "git stash apply" in a subdirectory of a secondary worktree failed
- to access the worktree correctly, which has been corrected.
+ "git format-patch -o <outdir>" did an equivalent of "mkdir <outdir>"
+ not "mkdir -p <outdir>", which got corrected.

+ + Makefile: respect $(V) in %.cocci.patch target

- Comment update.
+ "git stash save" lost local changes to submodules, which has been
+ corrected.

- + sequencer: simplify root commit creation
- + rebase -i: check for updated todo after squash and reword

+--------------------------------------------------
+[New Topics]
- The code to skip "UTF" and "UTF-" prefix, when computing an advice
- message, did not work correctly when the prefix was "UTF", which
- has been fixed.
+* dd/notes-copy-default-dst-to-head (2019-10-18) 2 commits
+ (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-18 at 2588a175ec)
+ + notes: fix minimum number of parameters to "copy" subcommand
+ + t3301: test diagnose messages for too few/many paramters
+
+ "git notes copy $original" ought to copy the notes attached to the
+ original object to HEAD, but a mistaken tightening to command line

+ - graph: reduce duplication in `graph_insert_into_new_columns()`
+ - graph: reuse `find_new_column_by_commit()`
+ - graph: handle line padding in `graph_next_line()`
+ - graph: automatically track display width of graph lines
+
+ The implementation of "git log --graph" got refactored and then its
+ output got simplified.
+ Will merge to 'next'.
