1Git 2.13 Release Notes 2====================== 3 4Backward compatibility notes. 5 6 * Use of an empty string as a pathspec element that is used for 7 'everything matches' is still warned and Git asks users to use a 8 more explicit '.' for that instead. The hope is that existing 9 users will not mind this change, and eventually the warning can be 10 turned into a hard error, upgrading the deprecation into removal of 11 this (mis)feature. That is not scheduled to happen in the upcoming 12 release (yet). 13 14 * The historical argument order "git merge <msg> HEAD <commit>..." 15 has been deprecated for quite some time, and is now removed. 16 17 * The default location "~/.git-credential-cache/socket" for the 18 socket used to communicate with the credential-cache daemon has 19 been moved to "~/.cache/git/credential/socket". 20 21 * Git now avoids blindly falling back to ".git" when the setup 22 sequence said we are _not_ in Git repository. A corner case that 23 happens to work right now may be broken by a call to die("BUG"). 24 We've tried hard to locate such cases and fixed them, but there 25 might still be cases that need to be addressed--bug reports are 26 greatly appreciated. 27 28 29Updates since v2.12 30------------------- 31 32UI, Workflows & Features 33 34 * "git describe" and "git name-rev" have been taught to take more 35 than one refname patterns to restrict the set of refs to base their 36 naming output on, and also learned to take negative patterns to 37 name refs not to be used for naming via their "--exclude" option. 38 39 * Deletion of a branch "foo/bar" could remove .git/refs/heads/foo 40 once there no longer is any other branch whose name begins with 41 "foo/", but we didn't do so so far. Now we do. 42 43 * When "git merge" detects a path that is renamed in one history 44 while the other history deleted (or modified) it, it now reports 45 both paths to help the user understand what is going on in the two 46 histories being merged. 47 48 * The <url> part in "http.<url>.<variable>" configuration variable 49 can now be spelled with '*' that serves as wildcard. 50 E.g. "http.https://*.example.com.proxy" can be used to specify the 51 proxy used for https://a.example.com, https://b.example.com, etc., 52 i.e. any host in the example.com domain. 53 54 * "git tag" did not leave useful message when adding a new entry to 55 reflog; this was left unnoticed for a long time because refs/tags/* 56 doesn't keep reflog by default. 57 58 * The "negative" pathspec feature was somewhat more cumbersome to use 59 than necessary in that its short-hand used "!" which needed to be 60 escaped from shells, and it required "exclude from what?" specified. 61 62 * The command line options for ssh invocation needs to be tweaked for 63 some implementations of SSH (e.g. PuTTY plink wants "-P <port>" 64 while OpenSSH wants "-p <port>" to specify port to connect to), and 65 the variant was guessed when GIT_SSH environment variable is used 66 to specify it. The logic to guess now applies to the command 67 specified by the newer GIT_SSH_COMMAND and also core.sshcommand 68 configuration variable, and comes with an escape hatch for users to 69 deal with misdetected cases. 70 71 * The "--git-path", "--git-common-dir", and "--shared-index-path" 72 options of "git rev-parse" did not produce usable output. They are 73 now updated to show the path to the correct file, relative to where 74 the caller is. 75 76 * "git diff -W" has been taught to handle the case where a new 77 function is added at the end of the file better. 78 79 * "git update-ref -d" and other operations to delete references did 80 not leave any entry in HEAD's reflog when the reference being 81 deleted was the current branch. This is not a problem in practice 82 because you do not want to delete the branch you are currently on, 83 but caused renaming of the current branch to something else not to 84 be logged in a useful way. 85 86 * "Cc:" on the trailer part does not have to conform to RFC strictly, 87 unlike in the e-mail header. "git send-email" has been updated to 88 ignore anything after '>' when picking addresses, to allow non-address 89 cruft like " # stable 4.4" after the address. 90 91 * When "git submodule init" decides that the submodule in the working 92 tree is its upstream, it now gives a warning as it is not a very 93 common setup. 94 95 * "git stash push" takes a pathspec so that the local changes can be 96 stashed away only partially. 97 98 * Documentation for "git ls-files" did not refer to core.quotePath. 99 100 * The experimental "split index" feature has gained a few 101 configuration variables to make it easier to use. 102 103 * From a working tree of a repository, a new option of "rev-parse" 104 lets you ask if the repository is used as a submodule of another 105 project, and where the root level of the working tree of that 106 project (i.e. your superproject) is. 107 108 * The pathspec mechanism learned to further limit the paths that 109 match the pattern to those that have specified attributes attached 110 via the gitattributes mechanism. 111 112 * Our source code has used the SHA1_HEADER cpp macro after "#include" 113 in the C code to switch among the SHA-1 implementations. Instead, 114 list the exact header file names and switch among implementations 115 using "#ifdef BLK_SHA1/#include "block-sha1/sha1.h"/.../#endif"; 116 this helps some IDE tools. 117 118 * The start-up sequence of "git" needs to figure out some configured 119 settings before it finds and set itself up in the location of the 120 repository and was quite messy due to its "chicken-and-egg" nature. 121 The code has been restructured. 122 123 * The command line prompt (in contrib/) learned a new 'tag' style 124 that can be specified with GIT_PS1_DESCRIBE_STYLE, to describe a 125 detached HEAD with "git describe --tags". 126 127 * The configuration file learned a new "includeIf.<condition>.path" 128 that includes the contents of the given path only when the 129 condition holds. This allows you to say "include this work-related 130 bit only in the repositories under my ~/work/ directory". 131 132 * Recent update to "rebase -i" started showing a message that is not 133 a warning with "warning:" prefix by mistake. This has been fixed. 134 135 * Recently we started passing the "--push-options" through the 136 external remote helper interface; now the "smart HTTP" remote 137 helper understands what to do with the passed information. 138 139 * "git describe --dirty" dies when it cannot be determined if the 140 state in the working tree matches that of HEAD (e.g. broken 141 repository or broken submodule). The command learned a new option 142 "git describe --broken" to give "$name-broken" (where $name is the 143 description of HEAD) in such a case. 144 145 * "git checkout" is taught the "--recurse-submodules" option. 146 147 * Recent enhancement to "git stash push" command to support pathspec 148 to allow only a subset of working tree changes to be stashed away 149 was found to be too chatty and exposed the internal implementation 150 detail (e.g. when it uses reset to match the index to HEAD before 151 doing other things, output from reset seeped out). These, and 152 other chattyness has been fixed. 153 154 * "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>" syntax that has been deprecated 155 since October 2007 has been removed. 156 157 * The refs completion for large number of refs has been sped up, 158 partly by giving up disambiguating ambiguous refs and partly by 159 eliminating most of the shell processing between 'git for-each-ref' 160 and 'ls-remote' and Bash's completion facility. 161 162 * On many keyboards, typing "@{" involves holding down SHIFT key and 163 one can easily end up with "@{Up..." when typing "@{upstream}". As 164 the upstream/push keywords do not appear anywhere else in the syntax, 165 we can safely accept them case insensitively without introducing 166 ambiguity or confusion to solve this. 167 168 * "git tag/branch/for-each-ref" family of commands long allowed to 169 filter the refs by "--contains X" (show only the refs that are 170 descendants of X), "--merged X" (show only the refs that are 171 ancestors of X), "--no-merged X" (show only the refs that are not 172 ancestors of X). One curious omission, "--no-contains X" (show 173 only the refs that are not descendants of X) has been added to 174 them. 175 176 * The default behaviour of "git log" in an interactive session has 177 been changed to enable "--decorate". 178 179 * The output from "git status --short" has been extended to show 180 various kinds of dirtyness in submodules differently; instead of to 181 "M" for modified, 'm' and '?' can be shown to signal changes only 182 to the working tree of the submodule but not the commit that is 183 checked out. 184 185 * Allow the http.postbuffer configuration variable to be set to a 186 size that can be expressed in size_t, which can be larger than 187 ulong on some platforms. 188 189 * "git rebase" learns "--signoff" option. 190 191 * The completion script (in contrib/) learned to complete "git push 192 --delete b<TAB>" to complete branch name to be deleted. 193 194 * "git worktree add --lock" allows to lock a worktree immediately 195 after it's created. This helps prevent a race between "git worktree 196 add; git worktree lock" and "git worktree prune". 197 198 * Completion for "git checkout <branch>" that auto-creates the branch 199 out of a remote tracking branch can now be disabled, as this 200 completion often gets in the way when completing to checkout an 201 existing local branch that happens to share the same prefix with 202 bunch of remote tracking branches. 203 204 205Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. 206 207 * The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated 208 with the more generic ref-filter API. 209 210 * Resource usage while enumerating refs from alternate object store 211 has been optimized to help receiving end of "push" that hosts a 212 repository with many "forks". 213 214 * The gitattributes machinery is being taught to work better in a 215 multi-threaded environment. 216 217 * "git rebase -i" starts using the recently updated "sequencer" code. 218 219 * Code and design clean-up for the refs API. 220 221 * The preload-index code has been taught not to bother with the index 222 entries that are paths that are not checked out by "sparse checkout". 223 224 * Some warning() messages from "git clean" were updated to show the 225 errno from failed system calls. 226 227 * The "parse_config_key()" API function has been cleaned up. 228 229 * A test that creates a confusing branch whose name is HEAD has been 230 corrected not to do so. 231 232 * The code that parses header fields in the commit object has been 233 updated for (micro)performance and code hygiene. 234 235 * An helper function to make it easier to append the result from 236 real_path() to a strbuf has been added. 237 238 * Reduce authentication round-trip over HTTP when the server supports 239 just a single authentication method. This also improves the 240 behaviour when Git is misconfigured to enable http.emptyAuth 241 against a server that does not authenticate without a username 242 (i.e. not using Kerberos etc., which makes http.emptyAuth 243 pointless). 244 245 * Windows port wants to use OpenSSL's implementation of SHA-1 246 routines, so let them. 247 248 * The t/perf performance test suite was not prepared to test not so 249 old versions of Git, but now it covers versions of Git that are not 250 so ancient. 251 252 * Add 32-bit Linux variant to the set of platforms to be tested with 253 Travis CI. 254 255 * "git branch --list" takes the "--abbrev" and "--no-abbrev" options 256 to control the output of the object name in its "-v"(erbose) 257 output, but a recent update started ignoring them; fix it before 258 the breakage reaches to any released version. 259 260 * Picking two versions of Git and running tests to make sure the 261 older one and the newer one interoperate happily has now become 262 possible. 263 264 * "git tag --contains" used to (ab)use the object bits to keep track 265 of the state of object reachability without clearing them after 266 use; this has been cleaned up and made to use the newer commit-slab 267 facility. 268 269 * The "debug" helper used in the test framework learned to run 270 a command under "gdb" interactively. 271 272 * The "detect attempt to create collisions" variant of SHA-1 273 implementation by Marc Stevens (CWI) and Dan Shumow (Microsoft) 274 has been integrated and made the default. 275 276 * The test framework learned to detect unterminated here documents. 277 278 * The name-hash used for detecting paths that are different only in 279 cases (which matter on case insensitive filesystems) has been 280 optimized to take advantage of multi-threading when it makes sense. 281 282 * An earlier version of sha1dc/sha1.c that was merged to 'master' 283 compiled incorrectly on Windows, which has been fixed. 284 285 * "what URL do we want to update this submodule?" and "are we 286 interested in this submodule?" are split into two distinct 287 concepts, and then the way used to express the latter got extended, 288 paving a way to make it easier to manage a project with many 289 submodules and make it possible to later extend use of multiple 290 worktrees for a project with submodules. 291 292 * Some debugging output from "git describe" were marked for l10n, 293 but some weren't. Mark missing ones for l10n. 294 295 * Define a new task in .travis.yml that triggers a test session on 296 Windows run elsewhere. 297 298 * Conversion from uchar[20] to struct object_id continues. 299 300 * The "submodule" specific field in the ref_store structure is 301 replaced with a more generic "gitdir" that can later be used also 302 when dealing with ref_store that represents the set of refs visible 303 from the other worktrees. 304 305 * The string-list API used a custom reallocation strategy that was 306 very inefficient, instead of using the usual ALLOC_GROW() macro, 307 which has been fixed. 308 (merge 950a234cbd jh/string-list-micro-optim later to maint). 309 310 * In a 2- and 3-way merge of trees, more than one source trees often 311 end up sharing an identical subtree; optimize by not reading the 312 same tree multiple times in such a case. 313 (merge d12a8cf0af jh/unpack-trees-micro-optim later to maint). 314 315 * The index file has a trailing SHA-1 checksum to detect file 316 corruption, and historically we checked it every time the index 317 file is used. Omit the validation during normal use, and instead 318 verify only in "git fsck". 319 320 * Having a git command on the upstream side of a pipe in a test 321 script will hide the exit status from the command, which may cause 322 us to fail to notice a breakage; rewrite tests in a script to avoid 323 this issue. 324 325 * Travis CI learns to run coccicheck. 326 327 * "git checkout" that handles a lot of paths has been optimized by 328 reducing the number of unnecessary checks of paths in the 329 has_dir_name() function. 330 331 * The internals of the refs API around the cached refs has been 332 streamlined. 333 334 * Output from perf tests have been updated to align their titles. 335 336Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. 337 338 339Fixes since v2.12 340----------------- 341 342Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.12 in the maintenance 343track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases' 344notes for details). 345 346 * "git repack --depth=<n>" for a long time busted the specified depth 347 when reusing delta from existing packs. This has been corrected. 348 349 * The code to parse the command line "git grep <patterns>... <rev> 350 [[--] <pathspec>...]" has been cleaned up, and a handful of bugs 351 have been fixed (e.g. we used to check "--" if it is a rev). 352 353 * "git ls-remote" and "git archive --remote" are designed to work 354 without being in a directory under Git's control. However, recent 355 updates revealed that we randomly look into a directory called 356 .git/ without actually doing necessary set-up when working in a 357 repository. Stop doing so. 358 359 * "git show-branch" expected there were only very short branch names 360 in the repository and used a fixed-length buffer to hold them 361 without checking for overflow. 362 363 * A caller of tempfile API that uses stdio interface to write to 364 files may ignore errors while writing, which is detected when 365 tempfile is closed (with a call to ferror()). By that time, the 366 original errno that may have told us what went wrong is likely to 367 be long gone and was overwritten by an irrelevant value. 368 close_tempfile() now resets errno to EIO to make errno at least 369 predictable. 370 371 * "git remote rm X", when a branch has remote X configured as the 372 value of its branch.*.remote, tried to remove branch.*.remote and 373 branch.*.merge and failed if either is unset. 374 375 * A "gc.log" file left by a backgrounded "gc --auto" disables further 376 automatic gc; it has been taught to run at least once a day (by 377 default) by ignoring a stale "gc.log" file that is too old. 378 379 * The code to parse "git -c VAR=VAL cmd" and set configuration 380 variable for the duration of cmd had two small bugs, which have 381 been fixed. 382 383 * user.email that consists of only cruft chars should consistently 384 error out, but didn't. 385 386 * "git upload-pack", which is a counter-part of "git fetch", did not 387 report a request for a ref that was not advertised as invalid. 388 This is generally not a problem (because "git fetch" will stop 389 before making such a request), but is the right thing to do. 390 391 * A leak in a codepath to read from a packed object in (rare) cases 392 has been plugged. 393 394 * When a redirected http transport gets an error during the 395 redirected request, we ignored the error we got from the server, 396 and ended up giving a not-so-useful error message. 397 398 * The patch subcommand of "git add -i" was meant to have paths 399 selection prompt just like other subcommand, unlike "git add -p" 400 directly jumps to hunk selection. Recently, this was broken and 401 "add -i" lost the paths selection dialog, but it now has been 402 fixed. 403 404 * Git v2.12 was shipped with an embarrassing breakage where various 405 operations that verify paths given from the user stopped dying when 406 seeing an issue, and instead later triggering segfault. 407 408 * There is no need for Python only to give a few messages to the 409 standard error stream, but we somehow did. 410 411 * The code to parse "git log -L..." command line was buggy when there 412 are many ranges specified with -L; overrun of the allocated buffer 413 has been fixed. 414 415 * The command-line parsing of "git log -L" copied internal data 416 structures using incorrect size on ILP32 systems. 417 418 * "git diff --quiet" relies on the size field in diff_filespec to be 419 correctly populated, but diff_populate_filespec() helper function 420 made an incorrect short-cut when asked only to populate the size 421 field for paths that need to go through convert_to_git() (e.g. CRLF 422 conversion). 423 424 * A few tests were run conditionally under (rare) conditions where 425 they cannot be run (like running cvs tests under 'root' account). 426 427 * "git branch @" created refs/heads/@ as a branch, and in general the 428 code that handled @{-1} and @{upstream} was a bit too loose in 429 disambiguating. 430 431 * "git fetch" that requests a commit by object name, when the other 432 side does not allow such an request, failed without much 433 explanation. 434 435 * "git filter-branch --prune-empty" drops a single-parent commit that 436 becomes a no-op, but did not drop a root commit whose tree is empty. 437 438 * Recent versions of Git treats http alternates (used in dumb http 439 transport) just like HTTP redirects and requires the client to 440 enable following it, due to security concerns. But we forgot to 441 give a warning when we decide not to honor the alternates. 442 443 * "git push" had a handful of codepaths that could lead to a deadlock 444 when unexpected error happened, which has been fixed. 445 446 * "Dumb http" transport used to misparse a nonsense http-alternates 447 response, which has been fixed. 448 449 * "git add -p <pathspec>" unnecessarily expanded the pathspec to a 450 list of individual files that matches the pathspec by running "git 451 ls-files <pathspec>", before feeding it to "git diff-index" to see 452 which paths have changes, because historically the pathspec 453 language supported by "diff-index" was weaker. These days they are 454 equivalent and there is no reason to internally expand it. This 455 helps both performance and avoids command line argument limit on 456 some platforms. 457 (merge 7288e12cce jk/add-i-use-pathspecs later to maint). 458 459 * "git status --porcelain" is supposed to give a stable output, but a 460 few strings were left as translatable by mistake. 461 462 * "git revert -m 0 $merge_commit" complained that reverting a merge 463 needs to say relative to which parent the reversion needs to 464 happen, as if "-m 0" weren't given. The correct diagnosis is that 465 "-m 0" does not refer to the first parent ("-m 1" does). This has 466 been fixed. 467 468 * Code to read submodule.<name>.ignore config did not state the 469 variable name correctly when giving an error message diagnosing 470 misconfiguration. 471 472 * Fix for NO_PTHREADS build. 473 474 * Fix for potential segv introduced in v2.11.0 and later (also 475 v2.10.2) to "git log --pickaxe-regex -S". 476 477 * A few unterminated here documents in tests were fixed, which in 478 turn revealed incorrect expectations the tests make. These tests 479 have been updated. 480 481 * Fix for NO_PTHREADS option. 482 (merge 2225e1ea20 bw/grep-recurse-submodules later to maint). 483 484 * Git now avoids blindly falling back to ".git" when the setup 485 sequence said we are _not_ in Git repository. A corner case that 486 happens to work right now may be broken by a call to die("BUG"). 487 (merge b1ef400eec jk/no-looking-at-dotgit-outside-repo-final later to maint). 488 489 * A few commands that recently learned the "--recurse-submodule" 490 option misbehaved when started from a subdirectory of the 491 superproject. 492 (merge b2dfeb7c00 bw/recurse-submodules-relative-fix later to maint). 493 494 * FreeBSD implementation of getcwd(3) behaved differently when an 495 intermediate directory is unreadable/unsearchable depending on the 496 length of the buffer provided, which our strbuf_getcwd() was not 497 aware of. strbuf_getcwd() has been taught to cope with it better. 498 (merge a54e938e5b rs/freebsd-getcwd-workaround later to maint). 499 500 * A recent update to "rebase -i" stopped running hooks for the "git 501 commit" command during "reword" action, which has been fixed. 502 503 * Removing an entry from a notes tree and then looking another note 504 entry from the resulting tree using the internal notes API 505 functions did not work as expected. No in-tree users of the API 506 has such access pattern, but it still is worth fixing. 507 508 * "git receive-pack" could have been forced to die by attempting 509 allocate an unreasonably large amount of memory with a crafted push 510 certificate; this has been fixed. 511 (merge f2214dede9 bc/push-cert-receive-fix later to maint). 512 513 * Update error handling for codepath that deals with corrupt loose 514 objects. 515 (merge 51054177b3 jk/loose-object-info-report-error later to maint). 516 517 * "git diff --submodule=diff" learned to work better in a project 518 with a submodule that in turn has its own submodules. 519 (merge 17b254cda6 sb/show-diff-for-submodule-in-diff-fix later to maint). 520 521 * Update the build dependency so that an update to /usr/bin/perl 522 etc. result in recomputation of perl.mak file. 523 (merge c59c4939c2 ab/regen-perl-mak-with-different-perl later to maint). 524 525 * "git push --recurse-submodules --push-option=<string>" learned to 526 propagate the push option recursively down to pushes in submodules. 527 528 * If a patch e-mail had its first paragraph after an in-body header 529 indented (even after a blank line after the in-body header line), 530 the indented line was mistook as a continuation of the in-body 531 header. This has been fixed. 532 (merge fd1062e52e lt/mailinfo-in-body-header-continuation later to maint). 533 534 * Clean up fallouts from recent tightening of the set-up sequence, 535 where Git barfs when repository information is accessed without 536 first ensuring that it was started in a repository. 537 (merge bccb22cbb1 jk/no-looking-at-dotgit-outside-repo later to maint). 538 539 * "git p4" used "name-rev HEAD" when it wants to learn what branch is 540 checked out; it should use "symbolic-ref HEAD". 541 (merge eff451101d ld/p4-current-branch-fix later to maint). 542 543 * "http.proxy" set to an empty string is used to disable the usage of 544 proxy. We broke this early last year. 545 (merge ae51d91105 sr/http-proxy-configuration-fix later to maint). 546 547 * $GIT_DIR may in some cases be normalized with all symlinks resolved 548 while "gitdir" path expansion in the pattern does not receive the 549 same treatment, leading to incorrect mismatch. This has been fixed. 550 551 * "git submodule" script does not work well with strange pathnames. 552 Protect it from a path with slashes in them, at least. 553 554 * "git fetch-pack" was not prepared to accept ERR packet that the 555 upload-pack can send with a human-readable error message. It 556 showed the packet contents with ERR prefix, so there was no data 557 loss, but it was redundant to say "ERR" in an error message. 558 (merge 8e2c7bef03 jt/fetch-pack-error-reporting later to maint). 559 560 * "ls-files --recurse-submodules" did not quite work well in a 561 project with nested submodules. 562 563 * gethostname(2) may not NUL terminate the buffer if hostname does 564 not fit; unfortunately there is no easy way to see if our buffer 565 was too small, but at least this will make sure we will not end up 566 using garbage past the end of the buffer. 567 (merge 5781a9a270 dt/xgethostname-nul-termination later to maint). 568 569 * A recent update broke "git add -p ../foo" from a subdirectory. 570 571 * While handy, "git_path()" is a dangerous function to use as a 572 callsite that uses it safely one day can be broken by changes 573 to other code that calls it. Reduction of its use continues. 574 (merge 16d2676c9e jk/war-on-git-path later to maint). 575 576 * The split-index code configuration code used an unsafe git_path() 577 function without copying its result out. 578 579 * Many stale HTTP(s) links have been updated in our documentation. 580 (merge 613416f0be jk/update-links-in-docs later to maint). 581 582 * Other minor doc, test and build updates and code cleanups. 583 (merge df2a6e38b7 jk/pager-in-use later to maint). 584 (merge 75ec4a6cb0 ab/branch-list-doc later to maint). 585 (merge 3e5b36c637 sg/skip-prefix-in-prettify-refname later to maint). 586 (merge 2c5e2865cc jk/fast-import-cleanup later to maint). 587 (merge 4473060bc2 ab/test-readme-updates later to maint). 588 (merge 48a96972fd ab/doc-submitting later to maint). 589 (merge f5c2bc2b96 jk/make-coccicheck-detect-errors later to maint). 590 (merge c105f563d1 cc/untracked later to maint). 591 (merge 8668976b53 jc/unused-symbols later to maint). 592 (merge fba275dc93 jc/bs-t-is-not-a-tab-for-sed later to maint). 593 (merge be6ed145de mm/ls-files-s-doc later to maint). 594 (merge 60b091c679 qp/bisect-docfix later to maint). 595 (merge 47242cd103 ah/diff-files-ours-theirs-doc later to maint). 596 (merge 35ad44cbd8 sb/submodule-rm-absorb later to maint). 597 (merge 0301f1fd92 va/i18n-perl-scripts later to maint). 598 (merge 733e064d98 vn/revision-shorthand-for-side-branch-log later to maint). 599 (merge 85999743e7 tb/doc-eol-normalization later to maint). 600 (merge 0747fb49fd jk/loose-object-fsck later to maint). 601 (merge d8f4481c4f jk/quarantine-received-objects later to maint). 602 (merge 7ba1ceef95 xy/format-patch-base later to maint). 603 (merge fa1912c89a rs/misc-cppcheck-fixes later to maint). 604 (merge f17d642d3b ab/push-cas-doc-n-test later to maint). 605 (merge 61e282425a ss/gitmodules-ignore-doc later to maint). 606 (merge 8d3047cd5b ss/submodule-shallow-doc later to maint). 607 (merge 1f9e18b772 jk/prio-queue-avoid-swap-with-self later to maint). 608 (merge 627fde1025 jk/submodule-init-segv-fix later to maint).
