"git apply -v" learned to report paths in the patch that were
skipped via --include/--exclude mechanism or being outside the
current working directory.
* nd/apply-report-skip:
apply: report patch skipping in verbose mode
"git merge" used to allow merging two branches that have no common
base by default, which led to a brand new history of an existing
project created and then get pulled by an unsuspecting maintainer,
which allowed an unnecessary parallel history merged into the
existing project. The command has been taught not to allow this by
default, with an escape hatch "--allow-unrelated-histories" option
to be used in a rare event that merges histories of two projects
that started their lives independently.
* jc/merge-refuse-new-root:
merge: refuse to create too cool a merge by default
"git tag" can create an annotated tag without explicitly given an
"-a" (or "-s") option (i.e. when a tag message is given). A new
configuration variable, tag.forceSignAnnotated, can be used to tell
the command to create signed tag in such a situation.
* la/tag-force-signing-annotated-tags:
tag: add the option to force signing of annotated tags
"git -c credential.<var>=<value> submodule" can now be used to
propagate configuration variables related to credential helper
down to the submodules.
* jk/submodule-c-credential:

git: submodule honor -c credential.* from command line
quote: implement sq_quotef()

submodule: check argc count for git submodule--helper clone
submodule: don't pass empty string arguments to submodule--helper clone
"git merge FETCH_HEAD" dereferenced NULL pointer when merging
nothing into an unborn history (which is arguably unusual usage,
which perhaps was the reason why nobody noticed it).
* jv/merge-nothing-into-void:
merge: fix NULL pointer dereference when merging nothing into void
When "git merge --squash" stopped due to conflict, the concluding
"git commit" failed to read in the SQUASH_MSG that shows the log
messages from all the squashed commits.
* ss/commit-squash-msg:
commit: do not lose SQUASH_MSG contents
"git rebase -x" can be used without passing "-i" option.

The tests that involve running httpd leaked the system-wide
configuration in /etc/gitconfig to the tested environment.

"git send-email" had trouble parsing alias file in mailrc format
when lines in it had trailing whitespaces on them.
* jk/send-email-rtrim-mailrc-alias:

"git mergetool" did not work well with conflicts that both sides
deleted.
* da/mergetool-delete-delete-conflict:
mergetool: honor tempfile configuration when resolving delete conflicts

A major part of "git submodule update" has been ported to C to take
advantage of the recently added framework to run download tasks in
parallel.
* sb/submodule-parallel-update:
clone: allow an explicit argument for parallel submodule clones
submodule update: expose parallelism to the user
submodule helper: remove double 'fatal: ' prefix
git submodule update: have a dedicated helper for cloning
run_processes_parallel: rename parameters for the callbacks
run_processes_parallel: treat output of children as byte array
submodule update: direct error message to stderr
fetching submodules: respect `submodule.fetchJobs` config option
submodule-config: drop check against NULL
submodule-config: keep update strategy around
The command line argument parser for "receive-pack" has been
rewritten to use parse-options.
* ss/receive-pack-parse-options:
builtin/receive-pack.c: use parse_options API
The startup_info data, which records if we are working inside a
repository (among other things), are now uniformly available to Git
subcommand implementations, and Git avoids attempting to touch
references when we are not in a repository.
* jk/startup-info:
use setup_git_directory() in test-* programs
grep: turn off gitlink detection for --no-index
mailmap: do not resolve blobs in a non-repository
remote: don't resolve HEAD in non-repository
setup: set startup_info->have_repository more reliably
setup: make startup_info available everywhere
A test for tags has been restructured so that more parts of it can
easily be run on a platform without a working GnuPG.
* es/test-gpg-tags:
t6302: skip only signed tags rather than all tests when GPG is missing
t6302: also test annotated in addition to signed tags
t6302: normalize names and descriptions of signed tags
lib-gpg: drop unnecessary "missing GPG" warning
strbuf_getwholeline() did not NUL-terminate the buffer on certain
corner cases in its error codepath.
* jk/getwholeline-getdelim-empty:

A small memory leak in an error codepath has been plugged in xdiff
code.

Fetching of history by naming a commit object name directly didn't
work across remote-curl transport.
* gf/fetch-pack-direct-object-fetch:
fetch-pack: update the documentation for "<refs>..." arguments
fetch-pack: fix object_id of exact sha1
The "--local-env-vars" and "--resolve-git-dir" options of "git
rev-parse" failed to work outside a repository when the command's
option parsing was rewritten in 1.8.5 era.
* jk/rev-parse-local-env-vars:
rev-parse: let some options run outside repository
t1515: add tests for rev-parse out-of-repo helpers
"git config --get-urlmatch", unlike other variants of the "git
config --get" family, did not signal error with its exit status
when there was no matching configuration.
* jk/config-get-urlmatch:
Documentation/git-config: fix --get-all description
Documentation/git-config: use bulleted list for exit codes
config: fail if --get-urlmatch finds no value
The credential.helper configuration variable is cumulative and
there is no good way to override it from the command line. As
a special case, giving an empty string as its value now serves
as the signal to clear the values specified in various files.
* jk/credential-clear-config:
credential: let empty credential specs reset helper list
The embedded args argv-array in the child process is used to build
the command line to run pack-objects instead of using a separate
array of strings.
* mp/upload-pack-use-embedded-args:
upload-pack: use argv_array for pack_objects
The end-user facing Porcelain level commands like "diff" and "log"
now enables the rename detection by default.
* mm/diff-renames-default:
diff: activate diff.renames by default
log: introduce init_log_defaults()
t: add tests for diff.renames (true/false/unset)
t4001-diff-rename: wrap file creations in a test
Documentation/diff-config: fix description of diff.renames
Fix a few broken links in README.md and also teach rpmbuild
that there is no README.
* mm/readme-markdown:
README.md: don't take 'commandname' literally
git.spec.in: use README.md, not README
The link to Documentation/git-commandname.txt was obviously broken.
Remove the link and make it clear that it is not a literal path name by
using *italics* in makdown.

The file was renamed in 4ad21f5 (README: use markdown syntax,

caused the rpmbuild target in the Makefile to fail.

A fix for a small regression in "module_list" helper that was
rewritten in C (also applies to 2.7.x).

submodule: fix regression for deinit without submodules
While it makes sense to allow merging unrelated histories of two
projects that started independently into one, in the way "gitk" was
merged to "git" itself aka "the coolest merge ever", such a merge is
still an unusual event. Worse, if somebody creates an independent
history by starting from a tarball of an established project and
sends a pull request to the original project, "git merge" however
happily creates such a merge without any sign of something unusual
is happening.
Teach "git merge" to refuse to create such a merge by default,
unless the user passes a new "--allow-unrelated-histories" option to
tell it that the user is aware that two unrelated projects are
merged.
Because such a "two project merge" is a rare event, a configuration
option to always allow such a merge is not added.
We could add the same option to "git pull" and have it passed
through to underlying "git merge". I do not have a fundamental
opposition against such a feature, but this commit does not do so
and instead leaves it as low-hanging fruit for others, because such
a "two project merge" would be done after fetching the other project
into some location in the working tree of an existing project and
making sure how well they fit together, it is sufficient to allow a
local merge without such an option pass-through from "git pull" to
"git merge". Many tests that are updated by this patch does the
pass-through manually by turning:
git pull something
into its equivalent:
git fetch something &&
git merge --allow-unrelated-histories FETCH_HEAD
If somebody is inclined to add such an option, updated tests in this
change need to be adjusted back to:
git pull --allow-unrelated-histories something
