Subject: What's cooking in git.git (Nov 2019, #03; Tue, 19)

What's cooking in git.git (Nov 2019, #03; Tue, 19)
--------------------------------------------------
 
Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.  The ones marked with '.' do not appear in any of
the integration branches, but I am still holding onto them.
 
A bunch of topics, mostly the ones that were in 'next' before the
latest release, have been merged to 'master'.  Also, quite a lot of
topics now have started cooking in 'next'.  It will hopefully become
a short and productive cycle ;-)
 
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

* 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
 parameter validation made earlier disabled that feature by mistake.
 
 
* dl/apply-3way-diff3 (2019-10-24) 5 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-24 at 84e27d28b6)

 + t4108: remove git command upstream of pipe
 + t4108: replace create_file with test_write_lines
 
 "git apply --3way" learned to honor merge.conflictStyle
 configuration variable, like merges would.
 
 
* dl/format-patch-cover-from-desc (2019-10-16) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-18 at 40e992b6f5)
 + format-patch: teach --cover-from-description option
 + format-patch: use enum variables
 + format-patch: replace erroneous and condition
 
 The branch description ("git branch --edit-description") has been
 used to fill the body of the cover letters by the format-patch
 command; this has been enhanced so that the subject can also be
 filled.
 
 
* en/merge-recursive-directory-rename-fixes (2019-10-23) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-24 at 82e64029a8)
 + t604[236]: do not run setup in separate tests
 + merge-recursive: fix merging a subdirectory into the root directory
 + merge-recursive: clean up get_renamed_dir_portion()
 
 When all files from some subdirectory were renamed to the root
 directory, the directory rename heuristics would fail to detect that
 as a rename/merge of the subdirectory to the root directory, which has
 been corrected.
 
 
* es/walken-tutorial (2019-10-12) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-18 at 59160e59e9)

* js/rebase-deprecate-preserve-merges (2019-10-21) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-24 at 82fa49bbf2)
 + rebase: hide --preserve-merges option
 
 "git rebase --preserve-merges" has been marked as deprecated; this
 release stops advertising it in the "git rebase -h" output.
 
 
* js/update-index-ignore-removal-for-skip-worktree (2019-11-02) 2 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-11-02 at 57f7fb885f)

 + pretty: add "%aL" etc. to show local-part of email addresses
 + t4203: use test-lib.sh definitions
 + t6006: use test-lib.sh definitions
 
 The custom format for "git log --format=<format>" learned the l/L
 placeholder that is similar to e/E that fills in the e-mail
 address, but only the local part on the left side of '@'.
 
 
* pw/post-commit-from-sequencer (2019-10-16) 6 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-10-18 at 15b41a097d)

 + move run_commit_hook() to libgit and use it there
 + sequencer.h fix placement of #endif
 + t3404: remove uneeded calls to set_fake_editor

 cf. <f8a729c6-7b27-cac8-815e-b5c02a5c7b44@kdbg.org>
 
 
* rj/bundle-ui-updates (2019-11-11) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-11-19 at d88f626256)
 + bundle-verify: add --quiet
 + bundle-create: progress output control
 + bundle: framework for options before bundle file
 
 "git bundle" has been taught to use the parse options API.  "git
 bundle verify" learned "--quiet" and "git bundle create" learned
 options to control the progress output.
 
 Will merge to 'master'.
 
 
* ar/install-doc-update-cmds-needing-the-shell (2019-11-15) 1 commit
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-11-19 at 216468eb98)

 "git log" family learned "--pretty=ref" that gives the name of a
 commit in the format that is often used to refer to it in log
 messages.
 
 Expecting finishing touches to the data handling.
 Other than that, this is reasonably well done, I think.

* js/rebase-r-safer-label (2019-11-18) 2 commits
 - rebase -r: let `label` generate safer labels
 - rebase-merges: move labels' whitespace mangling into `label_oid()`
 (this branch is used by dd/rebase-merge-reserves-onto-label.)
 
 A label used in the todo list that are generated by "git rebase
 --rebase-merges" is used as a part of a refname; the logic to come
 up with the label has been tightened to avoid names that cannot be
 used as such.
 
 Will merge to 'next'.
 
 
* dd/rebase-merge-reserves-onto-label (2019-11-19) 1 commit
 - sequencer: handle rebase-merge for "onto" message
 (this branch uses js/rebase-r-safer-label.)
 
 The logic to avoid duplicate label names generated by "git rebase
 --rebase-merges" forgot that the machinery itself uses "onto" as a
 label name, which must be avoided by auto-generated labels, which
 has been corrected.
 
 Will merge to 'next'.

* js/advise-rebase-skip (2019-10-23) 3 commits
 - commit: give correct advice for empty commit during a rebase
 - sequencer: export the function to get the path of `.git/rebase-merge/`
 - cherry-pick: add test for `--skip` advice in `git commit`
 
 The logic used in "git commit" to give hints and errors depending
 on what operation was in progress learned to distinguish rebase and
 cherry-pick better.
 
 Kicked back to 'pu'.

* vn/reset-deleted-ita (2019-07-26) 1 commit

 header in the series of header fields has been moved down, which
 may help working around a suspected bug in GMail MSA, reported at
 <CAHk-=whP1stFZNAaJiMi5eZ9rj0MRt20Y_yHVczZPH+O01d+sA@mail.gmail.com>
 
 Waiting for feedback to see if it truly helps.
 Needs tests.

 used can be negotiated between the parties, by the initiator
 listing the protocol versions it is willing to talk, and the other
 side choosing from one of them.
 
 Expecting a reroll.

 standard input or a named file, instead of taking it as the command
 line arguments.
 
 Expecting a response to review.
 This smells more or less done.

 One kind of progress messages were always given during commit-graph
 generation, instead of following the "if it takes more than two
 seconds, show progress" pattern, which has been corrected.

 + fetch: avoid locking issues between fetch.jobs/fetch.writeCommitGraph
 + fetch: add the command-line option `--write-commit-graph`
 
 Fetching from multiple remotes into the same repository in parallel
 had a bad interaction with the recent change to (optionally) update
 the commit-graph after a fetch job finishes, as these parallel
 fetches compete with each other.  Which has been corrected.

* jt/fetch-remove-lazy-fetch-plugging (2019-11-13) 3 commits
  (merged to 'next' on 2019-11-19 at 1b26c28dcd)
 + promisor-remote: remove fetch_if_missing=0
 + clone: remove fetch_if_missing=0
 + fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0
 
 "git fetch" codepath had a big "do not lazily fetch missing objects
 when I ask if something exists" switch.  This has been corrected by
 marking the "does this thing exist?" calls with "if not please do not
 lazily fetch it" flag.

 + worktree: teach "add" to ignore submodule.recurse config
 
 "git worktree add" internally calls "reset --hard" that should not
 descend into submodules, even when submodule.recurse configuration
 is set, but it was affected.  This has been correct.

* ag/sequencer-todo-updates (2019-10-28) 6 commits
 - SQUASH??? tentative leakfix
 - sequencer: directly call pick_commits() from complete_action()
 - rebase: fill `squash_onto' in get_replay_opts()
 - sequencer: move the code writing total_nr on the disk to a new function
 - sequencer: update `done_nr' when skipping commands in a todo list
 - sequencer: update `total_nr' when adding an item to a todo list
 
 Reduce unnecessary reading of state variables back from the disk
 during sequener operation.
 
 Is the leakfix patch at the tip the only thing that needs to
 prepare the topic ready for 'next'?
 
 
* mt/threaded-grep-in-object-store (2019-10-02) 11 commits
 - grep: move driver pre-load out of critical section
 - grep: re-enable threads in non-worktree case
 - grep: protect packed_git [re-]initialization
 - grep: allow submodule functions to run in parallel
 - submodule-config: add skip_if_read option to repo_read_gitmodules()
 - grep: replace grep_read_mutex by internal obj read lock
 - object-store: allow threaded access to object reading
 - replace-object: make replace operations thread-safe
 - grep: fix racy calls in grep_objects()
 - grep: fix race conditions at grep_submodule()
 - grep: fix race conditions on userdiff calls
 
 Traditionally, we avoided threaded grep while searching in objects
 (as opposed to files in the working tree) as accesses to the object
 layer is not thread-safe.  This limitation is getting lifted.
 
 Expecting a reroll.
