The "--rfc" option of "git format-patch" learned to take an
optional string value to be used in place of "RFC" to tweak the
"[PATCH]" on the subject header.
* jc/format-patch-rfc-more:
format-patch: "--rfc=-(WIP)" appends to produce [PATCH (WIP)]
format-patch: allow --rfc to optionally take a value, like --rfc=WIP
The "-k" and "--rfc" options of "format-patch" will now error out
when used together, as one tells us not to add anything to the
title of the commit, and the other one tells us to add "RFC" in
addition to "PATCH".
* ds/format-patch-rfc-and-k:
format-patch: ensure that --rfc and -k are mutually exclusive
The procedure to build multi-pack-index got confused by the
replace-refs mechanism, which has been corrected by disabling the
latter.
* xx/disable-replace-when-building-midx:
midx: disable replace objects
"git rebase --signoff" used to forget that it needs to add a
sign-off to the resulting commit when told to continue after a
conflict stops its operation.
* pw/rebase-m-signoff-fix:
rebase -m: fix --signoff with conflicts
sequencer: store commit message in private context
sequencer: move current fixups to private context
sequencer: start removing private fields from public API
sequencer: always free "struct replay_opts"
Leakfix.
* rj/add-i-leak-fix:
add: plug a leak on interactive_add
add-patch: plug a leak handling the '/' command
add-interactive: plug a leak in get_untracked_files
apply: plug a leak in apply_data
Demote a BUG() to an die() when the failure from vsnprintf() may
not be due to a programmer error.
* rs/vsnprintf-failure-is-not-a-bug:
don't report vsnprintf(3) error as bug
The "receive-pack" program (which responds to "git push") was not
converted to run "git maintenance --auto" when other codepaths that
used to run "git gc --auto" were updated, which has been corrected.
* ps/run-auto-maintenance-in-receive-pack:
builtin/receive-pack: convert to use git-maintenance(1)
run-command: introduce function to prepare auto-maintenance process
When "git bisect" reports the commit it determined to be the
culprit, we used to show it in a format that does not honor common
UI tweaks, like log.date and log.decorate. The code has been
taught to use "git show" to follow more customizations.
* pk/bisect-use-show:
bisect: report the found commit with "show"
The filename used for rejected hunks "git apply --reject" creates
was limited to PATH_MAX, which has been lifted.
* rs/apply-reject-long-name:
apply: avoid using fixed-size buffer in write_out_one_reject()
When .git/rr-cache/ rerere database gets corrupted or rerere is fed to
work on a file with conflicted hunks resolved incompletely, the rerere
machinery got confused and segfaulted, which has been corrected.
* mr/rerere-crash-fix:
rerere: fix crashes due to unmatched opening conflict markers
GIt 2.44 introduced a regression that makes the updated code to
barf in repositories with multi-pack index written by older
versions of Git, which has been corrected.
* ps/missing-btmp-fix:
pack-bitmap: gracefully handle missing BTMP chunks
The code to format trailers have been cleaned up.
* la/format-trailer-info:
trailer: finish formatting unification
trailer: begin formatting unification
format_trailer_info(): append newline for non-trailer lines
format_trailer_info(): drop redundant unfold_value()
format_trailer_info(): use trailer_item objects
The cvsimport tests required that the platform understands
traditional timezone notations like CST6CDT, which has been
updated to work on those systems as long as they understand
POSIX notation with explicit tz transition dates.
* dd/t9604-use-posix-timezones:
t9604: Fix test for musl libc and new Debian
Git writes a "waiting for your editor" message on an incomplete
line after launching an editor, and then append another error
message on the same line if the editor errors out. It now clears
the "waiting for..." line before giving the error message.
* rj/launch-editor-error-message:
launch_editor: waiting message on error
The way "git fast-import" handles paths described in its input has
been tightened up and more clearly documented.
* ta/fast-import-parse-path-fix:
fast-import: make comments more precise
fast-import: forbid escaped NUL in paths
fast-import: document C-style escapes for paths
fast-import: improve documentation for path quoting
fast-import: remove dead strbuf
fast-import: allow unquoted empty path for root
fast-import: directly use strbufs for paths
fast-import: tighten path unquoting
The code to iterate over reftable blocks has seen some optimization
to reduce memory allocation and deallocation.
* ps/reftable-block-iteration-optim:
reftable/block: avoid copying block iterators on seek
reftable/block: reuse `zstream` state on inflation
reftable/block: open-code call to `uncompress2()`
reftable/block: reuse uncompressed blocks
reftable/reader: iterate to next block in place
reftable/block: move ownership of block reader into `struct table_iter`
reftable/block: introduce `block_reader_release()`
reftable/block: better grouping of functions
reftable/block: merge `block_iter_seek()` and `block_reader_seek()`
reftable/block: rename `block_reader_start()`
In the previous step, the "--rfc" option of "format-patch" learned
to take an optional string value to prepend to the subject prefix,
so that --rfc=WIP can give "[WIP PATCH]".
There may be cases in which the extra string wants to come after the
subject prefix. Extend the mechanism to allow "--rfc=-(WIP)" [*] to
signal that the extra string is to be appended instead of getting
prepended, resulting in "[PATCH (WIP)]".
In the documentation, discourage (ab)using "--rfc=-RFC" to say
"[PATCH RFC]" just to be different, when "[RFC PATCH]" is the norm.
[Footnote]
* The syntax takes inspiration from Perl's open syntax that opens
pipes "open fh, '|-', 'cmd'", where the dash signals "the other
stuff comes here".

With the "--rfc" option, we can tweak the "[PATCH]" (or whatever
string specified with the "--subject-prefix" option, instead of
"PATCH") that we prefix the title of the commit with into "[RFC
PATCH]", but some projects may want "[rfc PATCH]". Adding a new
option, e.g., "--rfc-lowercase", to support such need every time
somebody wants to use different strings would lead to insanity of
accumulating unbounded number of such options.
Allow an optional value specified for the option, so that users can
use "--rfc=rfc" (think of "--rfc" without value as a short-hand for
"--rfc=RFC") if they wanted to.
This can of course be (ab)used to make the prefix "[WIP PATCH]" by
passing "--rfc=WIP". Passing an empty string, i.e., "--rfc=", is
the same as "--no-rfc" to override an option given earlier on the
same command line.

Plug a leak we have since 5a76aff1a6 (add: convert to use
parse_pathspec, 2013-07-14).
This leak can be triggered with:
$ git add -p anything
Fixing this leak allows us to mark as leak-free the following tests:
+ t3701-add-interactive.sh
+ t7514-commit-patch.sh
Mark them with "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" to notice and fix
promply any new leak that may be introduced and triggered by them in the
future.

Plug a leak we have since ab1e1cccaf (built-in add -i: re-implement
`add-untracked` in C, 2019-11-29).
This leak can be triggered with:
$ echo a | git add -i
As a curiosity, we have a somewhat similar function in builtin/stash.c,
which correctly frees the memory.

We have an execution path in apply_data that leaks the local struct
image. Plug it.
This leak can be triggered with:
$ echo foo >file
$ git add file && git commit -m file
$ echo bar >file
$ git diff file >diff
$ sed s/foo/frotz/ <diff >baddiff
$ git apply --cached <baddiff
