The new "--no-optional-locks" + option can be passed to Git to disable them. + + +Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. + + * Conversion from uchar[20] to struct object_id continues. + + * Start using selected c99 constructs in small, stable and + essentialpart of the system to catch people who care about + older compilers that do not grok them. + + * The filter-process interface learned to allow a process with long + latency give a "delayed" response. + + * Many uses of comparision callback function the hashmap API uses + cast the callback function type when registering it to + hashmap_init(), which defeats the compile time type checking when + the callback interface changes (e.g. gaining more parameters). + The callback implementations have been updated to take "void *" + pointers and cast them to the type they expect instead. + + * Because recent Git for Windows do come with a real msgfmt, the + build procedure for git-gui has been updated to use it instead of a + hand-rolled substitute. + + * "git grep --recurse-submodules" has been reworked to give a more + consistent output across submodule boundary (and do its thing + without having to fork a separate process). + + * A helper function to read a single whole line into strbuf + mistakenly triggered OOM error at EOF under certain conditions, + which has been fixed. + (merge 642956cf45 rs/strbuf-getwholeline-fix later to maint). + + * The "ref-store" code reorganization continues. + + * "git commit" used to discard the index and re-read from the filesystem + just in case the pre-commit hook has updated it in the middle; this + has been optimized out when we know we do not run the pre-commit hook. + (merge 680ee550d7 kw/commit-keep-index-when-pre-commit-is-not-run later to maint). + + * Updates to the HTTP layer we made recently unconditionally used + features of libCurl without checking the existence of them, causing + compilation errors, which has been fixed. Also migrate the code to + check feature macros, not version numbers, to cope better with + libCurl that vendor ships with backported features. + + * The API to start showing progress meter after a short delay has + been simplified. + (merge 8aade107dd jc/simplify-progress later to maint). + + * Code clean-up to avoid mixing values read from the .gitmodules file + and values read from the .git/config file. + + * We used to spend more than necessary cycles allocating and freeing + piece of memory while writing each index entry out. This has been + optimized. + + * Platforms that ship with a separate sha1 with collision detection + library can link to it instead of using the copy we ship as part of + our source tree. + + * Code around "notes" have been cleaned up. + (merge 3964281524 mh/notes-cleanup later to maint). + + * The long-standing rule that an in-core lockfile instance, once it + is used, must not be freed, has been lifted and the lockfile and + tempfile APIs have been updated to reduce the chance of programming + errors. + + * Our hashmap implementation in hashmap.[ch] is not thread-safe when + adding a new item needs to expand the hashtable by rehashing; add + an API to disable the automatic rehashing to work it around. + + * Many of our programs consider that it is OK to release dynamic + storage that is used throughout the life of the program by simply + exiting, but this makes it harder to leak detection tools to avoid + reporting false positives. Plug many existing leaks and introduce + a mechanism for developers to mark that the region of memory + pointed by a pointer is not lost/leaking to help these tools. + + * As "git commit" to conclude a conflicted "git merge" honors the + commit-msg hook, "git merge" that records a merge commit that + cleanly auto-merges should, but it didn't. + + * The codepath for "git merge-recursive" has been cleaned up. + + * Many leaks of strbuf have been fixed. + + * "git imap-send" has our own implementation of the protocol and also + can use more recent libCurl with the imap protocol support. Update + the latter so that it can use the credential subsystem, and then + make it the default option to use, so that we can eventually + deprecate and remove the former. + + * "make style" runs git-clang-format to help developers by pointing + out coding style issues. + + * A test to demonstrate "git mv" failing to adjust nested submodules + has been added. + (merge c514167df2 hv/mv-nested-submodules-test later to maint). + + * On Cygwin, "ulimit -s" does not report failure but it does not work + at all, which causes an unexpected success of some tests that + expect failures under a limited stack situation. This has been + fixed. + + * Many codepaths have been updated to squelch -Wimplicit-fallthrough + warnings from Gcc 7 (which is a good code hygiene). + + * Add a helper for DLL loading in anticipation for its need in a + future topic RSN. + + * "git status --ignored", when noticing that a directory without any + tracked path is ignored, still enumerated all the ignored paths in + the directory, which is unnecessary. The codepath has been + optimized to avoid this overhead. + + * The final batch to "git rebase -i" updates to move more code from + the shell script to C has been merged. + + * Operations that do not touch (majority of) packed refs have been + optimized by making accesses to packed-refs file lazy; we no longer + pre-parse everything, and an access to a single ref in the + packed-refs does not touch majority of irrelevant refs, either. + + * Add comment to clarify that the style file is meant to be used with + clang-5 and the rules are still work in progress. + + * Many variables that points at a region of memory that will live + throughout the life of the program have been marked with UNLEAK + marker to help the leak checkers concentrate on real leaks.. + + +Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. + + +Fixes since v2.14 +----------------- + + * "%C(color name)" in the pretty print format always produced ANSI + color escape codes, which was an early design mistake. They now + honor the configuration (e.g. "color.ui = never") and also tty-ness + of the output medium. + + * The http.{sslkey,sslCert} configuration variables are to be + interpreted as a pathname that honors "~[username]/" prefix, but + weren't, which has been fixed. + + * Numerous bugs in walking of reflogs via "log -g" and friends have + been fixed. + + * "git commit" when seeing an totally empty message said "you did not + edit the message", which is clearly wrong. The message has been + corrected. + + * When a directory is not readable, "gitweb" fails to build the + project list. Work this around by skipping such a directory. + + * Some versions of GnuPG fails to kill gpg-agent it auto-spawned + and such a left-over agent can interfere with a test. Work it + around by attempting to kill one before starting a new test. + + * A recently added test for the "credential-cache" helper revealed + that EOF detection done around the time the connection to the cache + daemon is torn down were flaky. This was fixed by reacting to + ECONNRESET and behaving as if we got an EOF. + + * "git log --tag=no-such-tag" showed log starting from HEAD, which + has been fixed---it now shows nothing. + + * The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who + actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an + editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable + pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this, + and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default. + + * "git push --recurse-submodules $there HEAD:$target" was not + propagated down to the submodules, but now it is. + + * Commands like "git rebase" accepted the --rerere-autoupdate option + from the command line, but did not always use it. This has been + fixed. + + * "git clone --recurse-submodules --quiet" did not pass the quiet + option down to submodules. + + * Test portability fix for OBSD. + + * Portability fix for OBSD. + + * "git am -s" has been taught that some input may end with a trailer + block that is not Signed-off-by: and it should refrain from adding + an extra blank line before adding a new sign-off in such a case. + + * "git svn" used with "--localtime" option did not compute the tz + offset for the timestamp in question and instead always used the + current time, which has been corrected. + + * Memory leak in an error codepath has been plugged. + + * "git stash -u" used the contents of the committed version of the + ".gitignore" file to decide which paths are ignored, even when the + file has local changes. The command has been taught to instead use + the locally modified contents. + + * bash 4.4 or newer gave a warning on NUL byte in command + substitution done in "git stash"; this has been squelched. + + * "git grep -L" and "git grep --quiet -L" reported different exit + codes; this has been corrected. + + * When handshake with a subprocess filter notices that the process + asked for an unknown capability, Git did not report what program + the offending subprocess was running. This has been corrected. + + * "git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a + taken from a file with CRLF line endings to a file with CRLF line + endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git() + that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index + entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply" + is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all. + This has been fixed. + + * Killing "git merge --edit" before the editor returns control left + the repository in a state with MERGE_MSG but without MERGE_HEAD, + which incorrectly tells the subsequent "git commit" that there was + a squash merge in progress. This has been fixed. + + * "git archive" did not work well with pathspecs and the + export-ignore attribute. + + * In addition to "cc: # cruft", "cc: a@dd.re.ss # cruft" + was taught to "git send-email" as a valid way to tell it that it + needs to also send a carbon copy to in the trailer + section. + (merge cc90750677 mm/send-email-cc-cruft later to maint). + + * "git branch -M a b" while on a branch that is completely unrelated + to either branch a or branch b misbehaved when multiple worktree + was in use. This has been fixed. + (merge 31824d180d nd/worktree-kill-parse-ref later to maint). + + * "git gc" and friends when multiple worktrees are used off of a + single repository did not consider the index and per-worktree refs + of other worktrees as the root for reachability traversal, making + objects that are in use only in other worktrees to be subject to + garbage collection. + + * A regression to "gitk --bisect" by a recent update has been fixed. + (merge 1d0538e486 mh/packed-ref-store-prep later to maint). + + * "git -c submodule.recurse=yes pull" did not work as if the + "--recurse-submodules" option was given from the command line. + This has been corrected. + + * Unlike "git commit-tree < file", "git commit-tree -F file" did not + pass the contents of the file verbatim and instead completed an + incomplete line at the end, if exists. The latter has been updated + to match the behaviour of the former. + (merge c818e74332 rk/commit-tree-make-F-verbatim later to maint). + + * Many codepaths did not diagnose write failures correctly when disks + go full, due to their misuse of write_in_full() helper function, + which have been corrected. + (merge f48ecd38cb jk/write-in-full-fix later to maint). + + * "git help co" now says "co is aliased to ...", not "git co is". + (merge b3a8076e0d ks/help-alias-label later to maint). + + * "git archive", especially when used with pathspec, stored an empty + directory in its output, even though Git itself never does so. + This has been fixed. + (merge 4318094047 rs/archive-excluded-directory later to maint). + + * API error-proofing which happens to also squelch warnings from GCC. + (merge c788c54cde tg/refs-allowed-flags later to maint). + + * The explanation of the cut-line in the commit log editor has been + slightly tweaked. + (merge 8c4b1a3593 ks/commit-do-not-touch-cut-line later to maint). + + * "git gc" tries to avoid running two instances at the same time by + reading and writing pid/host from and to a lock file; it used to + use an incorrect fscanf() format when reading, which has been + corrected. + (merge afe2fab72c aw/gc-lockfile-fscanf-fix later to maint). + + * The scripts to drive TravisCI has been reorganized and then an + optimization to avoid spending cycles on a branch whose tip is + tagged has been implemented. + (merge 8376eb4a8f ls/travis-scriptify later to maint). + + * The test linter has been taught that we do not like "echo -e". + (merge 1a6d46895d tb/test-lint-echo-e later to maint). + + * Code cmp.std.c nitpick. + (merge ac7da78ede mh/for-each-string-list-item-empty-fix later to maint). + + * A regression fix for 2.11 that made the code to read the list of + alternate object stores overrun the end of the string. + (merge f0f7bebef7 jk/info-alternates-fix later to maint). + + * "git describe --match" learned to take multiple patterns in v2.13 + series, but the feature ignored the patterns after the first one + and did not work at all. This has been fixed. + (merge da769d2986 jk/describe-omit-some-refs later to maint). + + * "git filter-branch" cannot reproduce a history with a tag without + the tagger field, which only ancient versions of Git allowed to be + created.
