Merge branch 'hn/reftable' into pu

A new refs backend "reftable" to replace the traditional
combination of packed-refs files and one-file-per-ref loose refs
has been implemented and integrated for improved performance and
atomicity.

* hn/reftable:
  SQUASH??? whitespace breakage fix
  Add "test-tool dump-reftable" command.
  Add reftable testing infrastructure
  vcxproj: adjust for the reftable changes
  Add GIT_DEBUG_REFS debugging mechanism
  Hookup unittests for the reftable library.
  Reftable support for git-core
  Add reftable library
  Add .gitattributes for the reftable/ directory
  Iterate over the "refs/" namespace in for_each_[raw]ref
  Move REF_LOG_ONLY to refs-internal.h
  Treat REVERT_HEAD as a pseudo ref
  Treat CHERRY_PICK_HEAD as a pseudo ref
  Treat BISECT_HEAD as a pseudo ref
  Make refs_ref_exists public
  Write pseudorefs through ref backends.
  checkout: add '\n' to reflog message
  lib-t6000.sh: write tag using git-update-ref

-Program Output
-
- We make a distinction between a Git command's primary output and
- output which is merely chatty feedback (for instance, status
- messages, running transcript, or progress display), as well as error
- messages. Roughly speaking, a Git command's primary output is that
- which one might want to capture to a file or send down a pipe; its
- chatty output should not interfere with these use-cases.
-
- As such, primary output should be sent to the standard output stream
- (stdout), and chatty output should be sent to the standard error
- stream (stderr). Examples of commands which produce primary output
- include `git log`, `git show`, and `git branch --list` which generate
- output on the stdout stream.
-
- Not all Git commands have primary output; this is often true of
- commands whose main function is to perform an action. Some action
- commands are silent, whereas others are chatty. An example of a
- chatty action commands is `git clone` with its "Cloning into
- '<path>'..." and "Checking connectivity..." status messages which it

 Error Messages
 
  - Do not end error messages with a full stop.
 
- - Do not capitalize the first word, only because it is the first word
-   in the message ("unable to open %s", not "Unable to open %s").  But
-   "SHA-3 not supported" is fine, because the reason the first word is
-   capitalized is not because it is at the beginning of the sentence,
-   but because the word would be spelled in capital letters even when
-   it appeared in the middle of the sentence.
+ - Do not capitalize ("unable to open %s", not "Unable to open %s")
 
  - Say what the error is first ("cannot open %s", not "%s: cannot open")

  documentation, please see the documentation-related advice in the
  Documentation/SubmittingPatches file).
 
- In order to ensure the documentation is inclusive, avoid assuming
- that an unspecified example person is male or female, and think
- twice before using "he", "him", "she", or "her".  Here are some
- tips to avoid use of gendered pronouns:
-
-  - Prefer succinctness and matter-of-factly describing functionality
-    in the abstract.  E.g.
-
-     --short:: Emit output in the short-format.
-
-    and avoid something like these overly verbose alternatives:
-
-     --short:: Use this to emit output in the short-format.
-     --short:: You can use this to get output in the short-format.
-     --short:: A user who prefers shorter output could....
-     --short:: Should a person and/or program want shorter output, he
-               she/they/it can...
-
-    This practice often eliminates the need to involve human actors in
-    your description, but it is a good practice regardless of the
-    avoidance of gendered pronouns.
-
-  - When it becomes awkward to stick to this style, prefer "you" when
-    addressing the the hypothetical user, and possibly "we" when
-    discussing how the program might react to the user.  E.g.
-
-      You can use this option instead of --xyz, but we might remove
-      support for it in future versions.
-
-    while keeping in mind that you can probably be less verbose, e.g.
-
-      Use this instead of --xyz. This option might be removed in future
-      versions.
-
-  - If you still need to refer to an example person that is
-    third-person singular, you may resort to "singular they" to avoid
-    "he/she/him/her", e.g.
-
-      A contributor asks their upstream to pull from them.
-
-    Note that this sounds ungrammatical and unnatural to those who
-    learned that "they" is only used for third-person plural, e.g.
-    those who learn English as a second language in some parts of the
-    world.
-
  Every user-visible change should be reflected in the documentation.
  The same general rule as for code applies -- imitate the existing
  conventions.

+shaped the way you want it to look for your patchset v2.
 
-We'll reuse our `psuh` topic branch for v2. Before we make any changes, we'll
-mark the tip of our v1 branch for easy reference:
+When you're ready with the next iteration of your patch, the process is fairly
+similar.

 ----
-$ git checkout psuh

-The `--range-diff master..psuh-v1` parameter tells `format-patch` to include a
-range-diff between `psuh-v1` and `psuh` in the cover letter (see
-linkgit:git-range-diff[1]). This helps tell reviewers about the differences
-between your v1 and v2 patches.
-
-The `-v2` parameter tells `format-patch` to output your patches
-as version "2". For instance, you may notice that your v2 patches are
-all named like `v2-000n-my-commit-subject.patch`. `-v2` will also format
-your patches by prefixing them with "[PATCH v2]" instead of "[PATCH]",
-and your range-diff will be prefaced with "Range-diff against v1".
-
-Afer you run this command, `format-patch` will output the patches to the `psuh/`
-directory, alongside the v1 patches. Using a single directory makes it easy to
-refer to the old v1 patches while proofreading the v2 patches, but you will need
-to be careful to send out only the v2 patches. We will use a pattern like
-"psuh/v2-*.patch" (not "psuh/*.patch", which would match v1 and v2 patches).

- * "git for-each-ref --format=<>" learned %(contents:size).
-
- * "git merge" learned to selectively omit " into <branch>" at the end
-   of the title of default merge message with merge.suppressDest
-   configuration.
-
- * The component to respond to "git fetch" request is made more
-   configurable to selectively allow or reject object filtering
-   specification used for partial cloning.
-
- * Stop when "sendmail.*" configuration variables are defined, which
-   could be a mistaken attempt to define "sendemail.*" variables.
-
- * The existing backends for "git mergetool" based on variants of vim
-   have been refactored and then support for "nvim" has been added.
-
- * "git bisect" learns the "--first-parent" option to find the first
-   breakage along the first-parent chain.
-
- * "git log --first-parent -p" showed patches only for single-parent
-   commits on the first-parent chain; the "--first-parent" option has
-   been made to imply "-m".  Use "--no-diff-merges" to restore the
-   previous behaviour to omit patches for merge commits.
-
- * The commit labels used to explain each side of conflicted hunks
-   placed by the sequencer machinery have been made more readable by
-   humans.
-
- * The "--batch-size" option of "git multi-pack-index repack" command
-   is now used to specify that very small packfiles are collected into
-   one until the total size roughly exceeds it.
-
- * The recent addition of SHA-256 support is marked as experimental in
-   the documentation.
-
- * "git fetch" learned --no-write-fetch-head option to avoid writing
-   the FETCH_HEAD file.
-
- * Command line completion (in contrib/) usually omits redundant,
-   deprecated and/or dangerous options from its output; it learned to
-   optionally include all of them.
-
- * The output from the "diff" family of the commands had abbreviated
-   object names of blobs involved in the patch, but its length was not
-   affected by the --abbrev option.  Now it is.
-
- * "git worktree" gained a "repair" subcommand to help users recover
-   after moving the worktrees or repository manually without telling
-   Git.  Also, "git init --separate-git-dir" no longer corrupts
-   administrative data related to linked worktrees.
-
- * The "--format=" option to the "for-each-ref" command and friends
-   learned a few more tricks, e.g. the ":short" suffix that applies to
-   "objectname" now also can be used for "parent", "tree", etc.
-
- * "git worktree add" learns that the "-d" is a synonym to "--detach"
-   option to create a new worktree without being on a branch.
-
- * "format-patch --range-diff=<prev> <origin>..HEAD" has been taught
-   not to ignore <origin> when <prev> is a single version.
-
- * "add -p" now allows editing paths that were only added in intent.
-
- * The 'meld' backend of the "git mergetool" learned to give the
-   underlying 'meld' the '--auto-merge' option, which would help
-   reduce the amount of text that requires manual merging.
-
- * "git for-each-ref" and friends that list refs used to allow only
-   one --merged or --no-merged to filter them; they learned to take
-   combination of both kind of filtering.
-
- * "git maintenance", a "git gc"'s big brother, has been introduced to
-   take care of more repository maintenance tasks, not limited to the
-   object database cleaning.
-
- * "git receive-pack" that accepts requests by "git push" learned to
-   outsource most of the ref updates to the new "proc-receive" hook.
-
- * "git push" that wants to be atomic and wants to send push
-   certificate learned not to prepare and sign the push certificate
-   when it fails the local check (hence due to atomicity it is known
-   that no certificate is needed).
-
- * "git commit-graph write" learned to limit the number of bloom
-   filters that are computed from scratch with the --max-new-filters
-   option.
-
- * The transport protocol v2 has become the default again.
-
- * The installation procedure learned to optionally omit "git-foo"
-   executable files for each 'foo' built-in subcommand, which are only
-   required by old timers that still rely on the age old promise that
-   prepending "git --exec-path" output to PATH early in their script
-   will keep the "git-foo" calls they wrote working.
-
- * The command line completion (in contrib/) learned that "git restore
-   -s <TAB>" is often followed by a refname.
-
- * "git shortlog" has been taught to group commits by the contents of
-   the trailer lines, like "Reviewed-by:", "Coauthored-by:", etc.
-
- * "git archive" learns the "--add-file" option to include untracked
-   files into a snapshot from a tree-ish.
-
- * "git fetch" and "git push" support negative refspecs.
-
- * "git format-patch" learns to take "whenAble" as a possible value
-   for the format.useAutoBase configuration variable to become no-op
-   when the  automatically computed base does not make sense.
-
- * Credential helpers are now allowed to terminate lines with CRLF
-   line ending, as well as LF line ending.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * The changed-path Bloom filter is improved using ideas from an
-   independent implementation.
-
- * Updates to the changed-paths bloom filter.
-
- * The test framework has been updated so that most tests will run
-   with predictable (artificial) timestamps.
-
- * Preliminary clean-up of the refs API in preparation for adding a
-   new refs backend "reftable".
-
- * Dev support to limit the use of test_must_fail to only git commands.
-
- * While packing many objects in a repository with a promissor remote,
-   lazily fetching missing objects from the promissor remote one by
-   one may be inefficient---the code now attempts to fetch all the
-   missing objects in batch (obviously this won't work for a lazy
-   clone that lazily fetches tree objects as you cannot even enumerate
-   what blobs are missing until you learn which trees are missing).
-
- * The pretend-object mechanism checks if the given object already
-   exists in the object store before deciding to keep the data
-   in-core, but the check would have triggered lazy fetching of such
-   an object from a promissor remote.
-
- * The argv_array API is useful for not just managing argv but any
-   "vector" (NULL-terminated array) of strings, and has seen adoption
-   to a certain degree.  It has been renamed to "strvec" to reduce the
-   barrier to adoption.
-
- * The final leg of SHA-256 transition plus doc updates.  Note that
-   there is no interoperability between SHA-1 and SHA-256
-   repositories yet.
-
- * CMake support to build with MSVC for Windows bypassing the Makefile.
-
- * A new helper function has_object() has been introduced to make it
-   easier to mark object existence checks that do and don't want to
-   trigger lazy fetches, and a few such checks are converted using it.
-
- * A no-op replacement function implemented as a C preprocessor macro
-   does not perform as good a job as one implemented as a "static
-   inline" function in catching errors in parameters; replace the
-   former with the latter in <git-compat-util.h> header.
-
- * Test framework update.
-   (merge d572f52a64 es/test-cmp-typocatcher later to maint).
-
- * Updates to "git merge" tests, in preparation for a new merge
-   strategy backend.
-
- * midx and commit-graph files now use the byte defined in their file
-   format specification for identifying the hash function used for
-   object names.
-
- * The FETCH_HEAD is now always read from the filesystem regardless of
-   the ref backend in use, as its format is much richer than the
-   normal refs, and written directly by "git fetch" as a plain file..
-
- * An unused binary has been discarded, and a bunch of commands
-   have been turned into built-in.
-
- * A handful of places in in-tree code still relied on being able to
-   execute the git subcommands, especially built-ins, in "git-foo"
-   form, which have been corrected.
-
- * When a packfile is removed by "git repack", multi-pack-index gets
-   cleared; the code was taught to do so less aggressively by first
-   checking if the midx actually refers to a pack that no longer
-   exists.
-
- * Internal API clean-up to handle two options "diff-index" and "log"
-   have, which happen to share the same short form, more sensibly.
-
- * The "add -i/-p" machinery has been written in C but it is not used
-   by default yet.  It is made default to those who are participating
-   in feature.experimental experiment.
-
- * Allow maintainers to tweak $(TAR) invocations done while making
-   distribution tarballs.
-
- * "git index-pack" learned to resolve deltified objects with greater
-   parallelism.
-
- * "diff-highlight" (in contrib/) had a logic to flush its output upon
-   seeing a blank line but the way it detected a blank line was broken.
-
- * The logic to skip testing on the tagged commit and the tag itself
-   was not quite consistent which led to failure of Windows test
-   tasks.  It has been revamped to consistently skip revisions that
-   have already been tested, based on the tree object of the revision.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.28
------------------
-
- * The "mediawiki" remote backend which lives in contrib/mw-to-git/
-   and is not built with git by default, had an RCE bug allowing a
-   malicious MediaWiki server operator to inject arbitrary commands
-   for execution by a cloning client. This has been fixed.
-
-   The bug was discovered and reported by Joern Schneeweisz of GitLab
-   to the git-security mailing list. Its practical impact due to the
-   obscurity of git-remote-mediawiki was deemed small enough to forgo
-   a dedicated security release.
-
- * "git clone --separate-git-dir=$elsewhere" used to stomp on the
-   contents of the existing directory $elsewhere, which has been
-   taught to fail when $elsewhere is not an empty directory.
-   (merge dfaa209a79 bw/fail-cloning-into-non-empty later to maint).
-
- * With the base fix to 2.27 regresion, any new extensions in a v0
-   repository would still be silently honored, which is not quite
-   right.  Instead, complain and die loudly.
-   (merge ec91ffca04 jk/reject-newer-extensions-in-v0 later to maint).
-
- * Fetching from a lazily cloned repository resulted at the server
-   side in attempts to lazy fetch objects that the client side has,
-   many of which will not be available from the third-party anyway.
-   (merge 77aa0941ce jt/avoid-lazy-fetching-upon-have-check later to maint).
-
- * Fix to an ancient bug caused by an over-eager attempt for
-   optimization.
-   (merge a98f7fb366 rs/add-index-entry-optim-fix later to maint).
-
- * Pushing a ref whose name contains non-ASCII character with the
-   "--force-with-lease" option did not work over smart HTTP protocol,
-   which has been corrected.
-   (merge cd85b447bf bc/push-cas-cquoted-refname later to maint).
-
- * "git mv src dst", when src is an unmerged path, errored out
-   correctly but with an incorrect error message to claim that src is
-   not tracked, which has been clarified.
-   (merge 9b906af657 ct/mv-unmerged-path-error later to maint).
-
- * Fix to a regression introduced during 2.27 cycle.
-   (merge cada7308ad en/fill-directory-exponential later to maint).
-
- * Command line completion (in contrib/) update.
-   (merge 688b87c81b mp/complete-show-color-moved later to maint).
-
- * All "mergy" operations that internally use the merge-recursive
-   machinery should honor the merge.renormalize configuration, but
-   many of them didn't.
-
- * Doc cleanup around "worktree".
-   (merge dc9c144be5 es/worktree-doc-cleanups later to maint).
-
- * The "git blame --first-parent" option was not documented, but now
-   it is.
-   (merge 11bc12ae1e rp/blame-first-parent-doc later to maint).
-
- * The logic to find the ref transaction hook script attempted to
-   cache the path to the found hook without realizing that it needed
-   to keep a copied value, as the API it used returned a transitory
-   buffer space.  This has been corrected.
-   (merge 09b2aa30c9 ps/ref-transaction-hook later to maint).
-
- * Recent versions of "git diff-files" shows a diff between the index
-   and the working tree for "intent-to-add" paths as a "new file"
-   patch; "git apply --cached" should be able to take "git diff-files"
-   and should act as an equivalent to "git add" for the path, but the
-   command failed to do so for such a path.
-   (merge 4c025c667e rp/apply-cached-with-i-t-a later to maint).
-
- * "git diff [<tree-ish>] $path" for a $path that is marked with i-t-a
-   bit was not showing the mode bits from the working tree.
-   (merge cb0dd22b82 rp/ita-diff-modefix later to maint).
-
- * Ring buffer with size 4 used for bin-hex translation resulted in a
-   wrong object name in the sequencer's todo output, which has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge 5da69c0dac ak/sequencer-fix-find-uniq-abbrev later to maint).
-
- * When given more than one target line ranges, "git blame -La,b
-   -Lc,d" was over-eager to coalesce groups of original lines and
-   showed incorrect results, which has been corrected.
-   (merge c2ebaa27d6 jk/blame-coalesce-fix later to maint).
-
- * The regexp to identify the function boundary for FORTRAN programs
-   has been updated.
-   (merge 75c3b6b2e8 pb/userdiff-fortran-update later to maint).
-
- * A few end-user facing messages have been updated to be
-   hash-algorithm agnostic.
-   (merge 4279000d3e jc/object-names-are-not-sha-1 later to maint).
-
- * "unlink" emulation on MinGW has been optimized.
-   (merge 680e0b4524 jh/mingw-unlink later to maint).
-
- * The purpose of "git init --separate-git-dir" is to initialize a
-   new project with the repository separate from the working tree,
-   or, in the case of an existing project, to move the repository
-   (the .git/ directory) out of the working tree. It does not make
-   sense to use --separate-git-dir with a bare repository for which
-   there is no working tree, so disallow its use with bare
-   repositories.
-   (merge ccf236a23a es/init-no-separate-git-dir-in-bare later to maint).
-
- * "ls-files -o" mishandled the top-level directory of another git
-   working tree that hangs in the current git working tree.
-   (merge ab282aa548 en/dir-nonbare-embedded later to maint).
-
- * Fix some incorrect UNLEAK() annotations.
-   (merge 3e19816dc0 jk/unleak-fixes later to maint).
-
- * Use more buffered I/O where we used to call many small write(2)s.
-   (merge a698d67b08 rs/more-buffered-io later to maint).
-
- * The patch-id computation did not ignore the "incomplete last line"
-   marker like whitespaces.
-   (merge 82a62015a7 rs/patch-id-with-incomplete-line later to maint).
-
- * Updates into a lazy/partial clone with a submodule did not work
-   well with transfer.fsckobjects set.
-
- * The parser for "git for-each-ref --format=..." was too loose when
-   parsing the "%(trailers...)" atom, and forgot that "trailers" and
-   "trailers:<modifiers>" are the only two allowed forms, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge 2c22e102f8 hv/ref-filter-trailers-atom-parsing-fix later to maint).
-
- * Long ago, we decided to use 3 threads by default when running the
-   index-pack task in parallel, which has been adjusted a bit upwards.
-   (merge fbff95b67f jk/index-pack-w-more-threads later to maint).
-
- * "git restore/checkout --no-overlay" with wildcarded pathspec
-   mistakenly removed matching paths in subdirectories, which has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge bfda204ade rs/checkout-no-overlay-pathspec-fix later to maint).
-
- * The description of --cached/--index options in "git apply --help"
-   has been updated.
-   (merge d064702be3 rp/apply-cached-doc later to maint).
-
- * Feeding "$ZERO_OID" to "git log --ignore-missing --stdin", and
-   running "git log --ignore-missing $ZERO_OID" fell back to start
-   digging from HEAD; it has been corrected to become a no-op, like
-   "git log --tags=no-tag-matches-this-pattern" does.
-   (merge 04a0e98515 jk/rev-input-given-fix later to maint).
-
- * Various callers of run_command API have been modernized.
-   (merge afbdba391e jc/run-command-use-embedded-args later to maint).
-
- * List of options offered and accepted by "git add -i/-p" were
-   inconsistent, which have been corrected.
-   (merge ce910287e7 pw/add-p-allowed-options-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git diff --stat -w" showed 0-line changes for paths whose changes
-   were only whitespaces, which was not intuitive.  We now omit such
-   paths from the stat output.
-   (merge 1cf3d5db9b mr/diff-hide-stat-wo-textual-change later to maint).
-
- * It was possible for xrealloc() to send a non-NULL pointer that has
-   been freed, which has been fixed.
-   (merge 6479ea4a8a jk/xrealloc-avoid-use-after-free later to maint).
-
- * "git status" has trouble showing where it came from by interpreting
-   reflog entries that record certain events, e.g. "checkout @{u}", and
-   gives a hard/fatal error.  Even though it inherently is impossible
-   to give a correct answer because the reflog entries lose some
-   information (e.g. "@{u}" does not record what branch the user was
-   on hence which branch 'the upstream' needs to be computed, and even
-   if the record were available, the relationship between branches may
-   have changed), at least hide the error and allow "status" to show its
-   output.
-
- * "git status --short" quoted a path with SP in it when tracked, but
-   not those that are untracked, ignored or unmerged.  They are all
-   shown quoted consistently.
-
- * "git diff/show" on a change that involves a submodule used to read
-   the information on commits in the submodule from a wrong repository
-   and gave a wrong information when the commit-graph is involved.
-   (merge 85a1ec2c32 mf/submodule-summary-with-correct-repository later to maint).
-
- * Unlike "git config --local", "git config --worktree" did not fail
-   early and cleanly when started outside a git repository.
-   (merge 378fe5fc3d mt/config-fail-nongit-early later to maint).
-
- * There is a logic to estimate how many objects are in the
-   repository, which is meant to run once per process invocation, but
-   it ran every time the estimated value was requested.
-   (merge 67bb65de5d jk/dont-count-existing-objects-twice later to maint).
-
- * "git remote set-head" that failed still said something that hints
-   the operation went through, which was misleading.
-   (merge 5a07c6c3c2 cs/don-t-pretend-a-failed-remote-set-head-succeeded later to maint).
-
- * "git fetch --all --ipv4/--ipv6" forgot to pass the protocol options
-   to instances of the "git fetch" that talk to individual remotes,
-   which has been corrected.
-   (merge 4e735c1326 ar/fetch-ipversion-in-all later to maint).
-
- * The "unshelve" subcommand of "git p4" incorrectly used commit^N
-   where it meant to say commit~N to name the Nth generation
-   ancestor, which has been corrected.
-   (merge 0acbf5997f ld/p4-unshelve-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git clone" that clones from SHA-1 repository, while
-   GIT_DEFAULT_HASH set to use SHA-256 already, resulted in an
-   unusable repository that half-claims to be SHA-256 repository
-   with SHA-1 objects and refs.  This has been corrected.
-
- * Adjust sample hooks for hash algorithm other than SHA-1.
-   (merge d8d3d632f4 dl/zero-oid-in-hooks later to maint).
-
- * "git range-diff" showed incorrect diffstat, which has been
-   corrected.
-
- * Earlier we taught "git pull" to warn when the user does not say the
-   histories need to be merged, rebased or accepts only fast-
-   forwarding, but the warning triggered for those who have set the
-   pull.ff configuration variable.
-   (merge 54200cef86 ah/pull later to maint).
-
- * Compilation fix around type punning.
-   (merge 176380fd11 jk/drop-unaligned-loads later to maint).
-
- * "git blame --ignore-rev/--ignore-revs-file" failed to validate
-   their input are valid revision, and failed to take into account
-   that the user may want to give an annotated tag instead of a
-   commit, which has been corrected.
-   (merge 610e2b9240 jc/blame-ignore-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git bisect start X Y", when X and Y are not valid committish
-   object names, should take X and Y as pathspec, but didn't.
-   (merge 73c6de06af cc/bisect-start-fix later to maint).
-
- * The explanation of the "scissors line" has been clarified.
-   (merge 287416dba6 eg/mailinfo-doc-scissors later to maint).
-
- * A race that leads to an access to a free'd data was corrected in
-   the codepath that reads pack files.
-   (merge bda959c476 mt/delta-base-cache-races later to maint).
-
- * in_merge_bases_many(), a way to see if a commit is reachable from
-   any commit in a set of commits, was totally broken when the
-   commit-graph feature was in use, which has been corrected.
-   (merge 8791bf1841 ds/in-merge-bases-many-optim-bug later to maint).
-
- * "git submodule update --quiet" did not squelch underlying "rebase"
-   and "pull" commands.
-   (merge 3ad0401e9e td/submodule-update-quiet later to maint).
-
- * The lazy fetching done internally to make missing objects available
-   in a partial clone incorrectly made permanent damage to the partial
-   clone filter in the repository, which has been corrected.
-
- * "log -c --find-object=X" did not work well to find a merge that
-   involves a change to an object X from only one parent.
-   (merge 957876f17d jk/diff-cc-oidfind-fix later to maint).
-
- * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.

-Git v2.29.1 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-This is to fix the build procedure change in 2.28 where we failed to
-install a few programs that should be installed in /usr/bin (namely,
-receive-pack, upload-archive and upload-pack) when the non-default
-SKIP_DASHED_BUILT_INS installation option is in effect.
-
-A minor glitch in a non-default installation may usually not deserve

-Git 2.30 Release Notes
-======================
-
-Updates since v2.29
--------------------
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * Userdiff for PHP update.
-
- * Userdiff for Rust update.
-
- * Userdiff for CSS update.
-
- * The command line completion script (in contrib/) learned that "git
-   stash show" takes the options "git diff" takes.
-
- * "git worktree list" now shows if each worktree is locked.  This
-   possibly may open us to show other kinds of states in the future.
-
- * "git maintenance", an extended big brother of "git gc", continues
-   to evolve.
-
- * "git push --force-with-lease[=<ref>]" can easily be misused to lose
-   commits unless the user takes good care of their own "git fetch".
-   A new option "--force-if-includes" attempts to ensure that what is
-   being force-pushed was created after examining the commit at the
-   tip of the remote ref that is about to be force-replaced.
-
- * "git clone" learned clone.defaultremotename configuration variable
-   to customize what nickname to use to call the remote the repository
-   was cloned from.
-
- * "git checkout" learned to use checkout.guess configuration variable
-   and enable/disable its "--[no-]guess" option accordingly.
-
- * "git resurrect" script (in contrib/) learned that the object names
-   may be longer than 40-hex depending on the hash function in use.
-
- * "git diff A...B" learned "git diff --merge-base A B", which is a
-   longer short-hand to say the same thing.
-
- * A sample 'push-to-checkout' hook, that performs the same as
-   what the built-in default action does, has been added.
-
- * "git diff" family of commands learned the "-I<regex>" option to
-   ignore hunks whose changed lines all match the given pattern.
-
- * The userdiff pattern learned to identify the function definition in
-   POSIX shells and bash.
-
- * "git checkout-index" did not consistently signal an error with its
-   exit status, but now it does.
-
- * A commit and tag object may have CR at the end of each and
-   every line (you can create such an object with hash-object or
-   using --cleanup=verbatim to decline the default clean-up
-   action), but it would make it impossible to have a blank line
-   to separate the title from the body of the message.  We are now
-   more lenient and accept a line with lone CR on it as a blank line,
-   too.
-
- * Exit codes from "git remote add" etc. were not usable by scripted
-   callers, but now they are.
-
- * "git archive" now allows compression level higher than "-9"
-   when generating tar.gz output.
-
- * Zsh autocompletion (in contrib/) update.
-
- * The maximum length of output filenames "git format-patch" creates
-   has become configurable (used to be capped at 64).
-
- * "git rev-parse" learned the "--end-of-options" to help scripts to
-   safely take a parameter that is supposed to be a revision, e.g.
-   "git rev-parse --verify -q --end-of-options $rev".
-
- * The command line completion script (in contrib/) learned to expand
-   commands that are alias of alias.
-
- * "git update-ref --stdin" learns to take multiple transactions in a
-   single session.
-
- * Various subcommands of "git config" that take value_regex
-   learned the "--literal-value" option to take the value_regex option
-   as a literal string.
-
- * The transport layer was taught to optionally exchange the session
-   ID assigned by the trace2 subsystem during fetch/push transactions.
-
- * "git imap-send" used to ignore configuration variables like
-   core.askpass; this has been corrected.
-
- * "git $cmd $args", when $cmd is not a recognised subcommand, by
-   default tries to see if $cmd is a typo of an existing subcommand
-   and optionally executes the corrected command if there is only one
-   possibility, depending on the setting of help.autocorrect; the
-   users can now disable the whole thing, including the cycles spent
-   to find a likely typo, by setting the configuration variable to
-   'never'.
-
- * "@" sometimes worked (e.g. "git push origin @:there") as a part of
-   a refspec element, but "git push origin @" did not work, which has
-   been corrected.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * Use "git archive" more to produce the release tarball.
-
- * GitHub Actions automated test improvement to skip tests on a tree
-   identical to what has already been tested.
-
- * Test-coverage for running commit-graph task "git maintenance" has
-   been extended.
-
- * Our test scripts can be told to run only individual pieces while
-   skipping others with the "--run=..." option; they were taught to
-   take a substring of test title, in addition to numbers, to name the
-   test pieces to run.
-
- * Adjust tests so that they won't scream when the default initial
-   branch name is different from 'master'.
-
- * Rewriting "git bisect" in C continues.
-
- * More preliminary tests have been added to document desired outcomes
-   of various "directory rename" situations.
-
- * Micro clean-up of a couple of test scripts.
-
- * "git diff" and other commands that share the same machinery to
-   compare with working tree files have been taught to take advantage
-   of the fsmonitor data when available.
-
- * The code to detect premature EOF in the sideband demultiplexer has
-   been cleaned up.
-
- * "git fetch --depth=<n>" over the stateless RPC / smart HTTP
-   transport handled EOF from the client poorly at the server end.
-
- * A specialization of hashmap that uses a string as key has been
-   introduced.  Hopefully it will see wider use over time.
-
- * "git bisect start/next" in a large span of history spends a lot of
-   time trying to come up with exactly the half-way point; this can be
-   optimized by stopping when we see a commit that is close enough to
-   the half-way point.
-
- * A lazily defined test prerequisite can now be defined in terms of
-   another lazily defined test prerequisite.
-
- * Expectation for the original contributor after responding to a
-   review comment to use the explanation in a patch update has been
-   described.
-
- * Multiple "credential-store" backends can race to lock the same
-   file, causing everybody else but one to fail---reattempt locking
-   with some timeout to reduce the rate of the failure.
-
- * "git-parse-remote" shell script library outlived its usefulness.
-
- * Like die() and error(), a call to warning() will also trigger a
-   trace2 event.
-
- * Use of non-reentrant localtime() has been removed.
-
- * Non-reentrant time-related library functions and ctime/asctime with
-   awkward calling interfaces are banned from the codebase.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.29
------------------
-
- * In 2.29, "--committer-date-is-author-date" option of "rebase" and
-   "am" subcommands lost the e-mail address by mistake, which has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge 5f35edd9d7 jk/committer-date-is-author-date-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git checkout -p A...B [-- <path>]" did not work, even though the
-   same command without "-p" correctly used the merge-base between
-   commits A and B.
-   (merge 35166b1fb5 dl/checkout-p-merge-base later to maint).
-
- * The side-band status report can be sent at the same time as the
-   primary payload multiplexed, but the demultiplexer on the receiving
-   end incorrectly split a single status report into two, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge 712b0377db js/avoid-split-sideband-message later to maint).
-
- * "git fast-import" wasted a lot of memory when many marks were in use.
-   (merge 3f018ec716 jk/fast-import-marks-alloc-fix later to maint).
-
- * A test helper "test_cmp A B" was taught to diagnose missing files A
-   or B as a bug in test, but some tests legitimately wanted to notice
-   a failure to even create file B as an error, in addition to leaving
-   the expected result in it, and were misdiagnosed as a bug.  This
-   has been corrected.
-   (merge 262d5ad5a5 es/test-cmp-typocatcher later to maint).
-
- * When "git commit-graph" detects the same commit recorded more than
-   once while it is merging the layers, it used to die.  The code now
-   ignores all but one of them and continues.
-   (merge 85102ac71b ds/commit-graph-merging-fix later to maint).
-
- * The meaning of a Signed-off-by trailer can vary from project to
-   project; this and also what it means to this project has been
-   clarified in the documentation.
-   (merge 3abd4a67d9 bk/sob-dco later to maint).
-
- * "git credential' didn't honor the core.askPass configuration
-   variable (among other things), which has been corrected.
-   (merge 567ad2c0f9 tk/credential-config later to maint).
-
- * Dev support to catch a tentative definition of a variable in our C
-   code as an error.
-   (merge 5539183622 jk/no-common later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase --rebase-merges" did not correctly pass --gpg-sign
-   command line option to underlying "git merge" when replaying a merge
-   using non-default merge strategy or when replaying an octopus merge
-   (because replaying a two-head merge with the default strategy was
-   done in a separate codepath, the problem did not trigger for most
-   users), which has been corrected.
-   (merge 43ad4f2eca sc/sequencer-gpg-octopus later to maint).
-
- * "git apply -R" did not handle patches that touch the same path
-   twice correctly, which has been corrected.  This is most relevant
-   in a patch that changes a path from a regular file to a symbolic
-   link (and vice versa).
-   (merge b0f266de11 jt/apply-reverse-twice later to maint).
-
- * A recent oid->hash conversion missed one spot, breaking "git svn".
-   (merge 03bb366de4 bc/svn-hash-oid-fix later to maint).
-
- * The documentation on the "--abbrev=<n>" option did not say the
-   output may be longer than "<n>" hexdigits, which has been
-   clarified.
-   (merge cda34e0d0c jc/abbrev-doc later to maint).
-
- * "git p4" now honors init.defaultBranch configuration.
-   (merge 1b09d1917f js/p4-default-branch later to maint).
-
- * Recently the format of an internal state file "rebase -i" uses has
-   been tightened up for consistency, which would hurt those who start
-   "rebase -i" with old git and then continue with new git.  Loosen
-   the reader side a bit (which we may want to tighten again in a year
-   or so).
-   (merge c779386182 jc/sequencer-stopped-sha-simplify later to maint).
-
- * The code to see if "git stash drop" can safely remove refs/stash
-   has been made more careful.
-   (merge 4f44c5659b rs/empty-reflog-check-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git log -L<range>:<path>" is documented to take no pathspec, but
-   this was not enforced by the command line option parser, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge 39664cb0ac jc/line-log-takes-no-pathspec later to maint).
-
- * "git format-patch --output=there" did not work as expected and
-   instead crashed.  The option is now supported.
-   (merge dc1672dd10 jk/format-patch-output later to maint).
-
- * Define ARM64 compiled with MSVC to be little-endian.
-   (merge 0c038fc65a dg/bswap-msvc later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase -i" did not store ORIG_HEAD correctly.
-   (merge 8843302307 pw/rebase-i-orig-head later to maint).
-
- * "git blame -L :funcname -- path" did not work well for a path for
-   which a userdiff driver is defined.
-
- * "make DEVELOPER=1 sparse" used to run sparse and let it emit
-   warnings; now such warnings will cause an error.
-   (merge 521dc56270 jc/sparse-error-for-developer-build later to maint).
-
- * "git blame --ignore-revs-file=<file>" learned to ignore a
-   non-existent object name in the input, instead of complaining.
-   (merge c714d05875 jc/blame-ignore-fix later to maint).
-
- * Running "git diff" while allowing external diff in a state with
-   unmerged paths used to segfault, which has been corrected.
-   (merge d66851806f jk/diff-release-filespec-fix later to maint).
-
- * Build configuration cleanup.
-   (merge b990f02fd8 ab/config-mak-uname-simplify later to maint).
-
- * Fix regression introduced when nvimdiff support in mergetool was added.
-   (merge 12026f46e7 pd/mergetool-nvimdiff later to maint).
-
- * The exchange between receive-pack and proc-receive hook did not
-   carefully check for errors.
-
- * The code was not prepared to deal with pack .idx file that is
-   larger than 4GB.
-   (merge 81c4c5cf2e jk/4gb-idx later to maint).
-
- * Since jgit does not yet work with SHA-256 repositories, mark the
-   tests that use it not to run unless we are testing with ShA-1
-   repositories.
-   (merge ea699b4adc sg/t5310-jgit-wants-sha1 later to maint).
-
- * Config parser fix for "git notes".
-   (merge 45fef1599a na/notes-displayref-is-not-boolean later to maint).
-
- * Move a definition of compatibility wrapper from cache.h to
-   git-compat-util.h
-   (merge a76b138daa hn/sleep-millisec-decl later to maint).
-
- * Error message fix.
-   (merge eaf5341538 km/stash-error-message-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git pull --rebase --recurse-submodules" checked for local changes
-   in a wrong range and failed to run correctly when it should.
-   (merge 5176f20ffe pb/pull-rebase-recurse-submodules later to maint).
-
- * "git push" that is killed may leave a pack-objects process behind,
-   still computing to find a good compression, wasting cycles.  This
-   has been corrected.
-   (merge 8b59935114 jk/stop-pack-objects-when-push-is-killed later to maint).
-
- * "git fetch" that is killed may leave a pack-objects process behind,
-   still computing to find a good compression, wasting cycles.  This
-   has been corrected.
-   (merge 309a4028e7 jk/stop-pack-objects-when-fetch-is-killed later to maint).
-
- * "git add -i" failed to honor custom colors configured to show
-   patches, which has been corrected.
-   (merge 96386faa03 js/add-i-color-fix later to maint).
-
- * Processes that access packdata while the .idx file gets removed
-   (e.g. while repacking) did not fail or fall back gracefully as they
-   could.
-   (merge 506ec2fbda tb/idx-midx-race-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git apply" adjusted the permission bits of working-tree files and
-   directories according to core.sharedRepository setting by mistake and
-   for a long time, which has been corrected.
-   (merge eb3c027e17 mt/do-not-use-scld-in-working-tree later to maint).
-
- * "fetch-pack" could pass NULL pointer to unlink(2) when it sees an
-   invalid filename; the error checking has been tightened to make
-   this impossible.
-   (merge 6031af387e rs/fetch-pack-invalid-lockfile later to maint).
-
- * "git maintenance run/start/stop" needed to be run in a repository
-   to hold the lockfile they use, but didn't make sure they are
-   actually in a repository, which has been corrected.
-
- * The glossary described a branch as an "active" line of development,
-   which is misleading---a stale and non-moving branch is still a
-   branch.
-   (merge eef1ceabd8 so/glossary-branch-is-not-necessarily-active later to maint).

-Git v2.30.1 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-This release is primarily to merge fixes accumulated on the 'master'
-front to prepare for 2.31 release that are still relevant to 2.30.x
-maintenance track.
-
-Fixes since v2.30
------------------
-
- * "git fetch --recurse-submodules" failed to update a submodule
-   when it has an uninitialized (hence of no interest to the user)
-   sub-submodule, which has been corrected.
-
- * Command line error of "git rebase" are diagnosed earlier.
-
- * "git stash" did not work well in a sparsely checked out working
-   tree.
-
- * Some tests expect that "ls -l" output has either '-' or 'x' for
-   group executable bit, but setgid bit can be inherited from parent
-   directory and make these fields 'S' or 's' instead, causing test
-   failures.
-
- * "git for-each-repo --config=<var> <cmd>" should not run <cmd> for
-   any repository when the configuration variable <var> is not defined
-   even once.
-
- * "git mergetool --tool-help" was broken in 2.29 and failed to list
-   all the available tools.
-
- * Fix for procedure to building CI test environment for mac.
-
- * Newline characters in the host and path part of git:// URL are
-   now forbidden.
-
- * When more than one commit with the same patch ID appears on one
-   side, "git log --cherry-pick A...B" did not exclude them all when a
-   commit with the same patch ID appears on the other side.  Now it
-   does.
-
- * Documentation for "git fsck" lost stale bits that has become
-   incorrect.
-
- * Doc for packfile URI feature has been clarified.
-
- * The implementation of "git branch --sort" wrt the detached HEAD
-   display has always been hacky, which has been cleaned up.
-
- * Our setting of GitHub CI test jobs were a bit too eager to give up
-   once there is even one failure found.  Tweak the knob to allow
-   other jobs keep running even when we see a failure, so that we can
-   find more failures in a single run.
-
-Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.

--------------------
-
- * Build fix on Windows.
-
- * Fix `GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES` with Windows-style root directories.
-
- * CVE-2022-24765:
-   On multi-user machines, Git users might find themselves
-   unexpectedly in a Git worktree, e.g. when another user created a
-   repository in `C:\.git`, in a mounted network drive or in a
-   scratch space. Merely having a Git-aware prompt that runs `git

-Git v2.30.6 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-This release addresses the security issues CVE-2022-39253 and
-CVE-2022-39260.
-
-Fixes since v2.30.5
--------------------
-
- * CVE-2022-39253:
-   When relying on the `--local` clone optimization, Git dereferences
-   symbolic links in the source repository before creating hardlinks
-   (or copies) of the dereferenced link in the destination repository.
-   This can lead to surprising behavior where arbitrary files are
-   present in a repository's `$GIT_DIR` when cloning from a malicious
-   repository.
-
-   Git will no longer dereference symbolic links via the `--local`
-   clone mechanism, and will instead refuse to clone repositories that
-   have symbolic links present in the `$GIT_DIR/objects` directory.
-
-   Additionally, the value of `protocol.file.allow` is changed to be
-   "user" by default.
-
- * CVE-2022-39260:
-   An overly-long command string given to `git shell` can result in
-   overflow in `split_cmdline()`, leading to arbitrary heap writes and
-   remote code execution when `git shell` is exposed and the directory
-   `$HOME/git-shell-commands` exists.
-
-   `git shell` is taught to refuse interactive commands that are
-   longer than 4MiB in size. `split_cmdline()` is hardened to reject
-   inputs larger than 2GiB.
-
-Credit for finding CVE-2022-39253 goes to Cory Snider of Mirantis. The
-fix was authored by Taylor Blau, with help from Johannes Schindelin.
-
-Credit for finding CVE-2022-39260 goes to Kevin Backhouse of GitHub.
-The fix was authored by Kevin Backhouse, Jeff King, and Taylor Blau.
-
-
-Jeff King (2):
-      shell: add basic tests
-      shell: limit size of interactive commands
-
-Kevin Backhouse (1):
-      alias.c: reject too-long cmdline strings in split_cmdline()
-
-Taylor Blau (11):
-      builtin/clone.c: disallow `--local` clones with symlinks
-      t/lib-submodule-update.sh: allow local submodules
-      t/t1NNN: allow local submodules
-      t/2NNNN: allow local submodules
-      t/t3NNN: allow local submodules
-      t/t4NNN: allow local submodules
-      t/t5NNN: allow local submodules
-      t/t6NNN: allow local submodules
-      t/t7NNN: allow local submodules
-      t/t9NNN: allow local submodules
-      transport: make `protocol.file.allow` be "user" by default

-Git 2.31 Release Notes
-======================
-
-Updates since v2.30
--------------------
-
-Backward incompatible and other important changes
-
- * The "pack-redundant" command, which has been left stale with almost
-   unusable performance issues, now warns loudly when it gets used, as
-   we no longer want to recommend its use (instead just "repack -d"
-   instead).
-
- * The development community has adopted Contributor Covenant v2.0 to
-   update from v1.4 that we have been using.
-
- * The support for deprecated PCRE1 library has been dropped.
-
- * Fixes for CVE-2021-21300 in Git 2.30.2 (and earlier) is included.
-
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * The "--format=%(trailers)" mechanism gets enhanced to make it
-   easier to design output for machine consumption.
-
- * When a user does not tell "git pull" to use rebase or merge, the
-   command gives a loud message telling a user to choose between
-   rebase or merge but creates a merge anyway, forcing users who would
-   want to rebase to redo the operation.  Fix an early part of this
-   problem by tightening the condition to give the message---there is
-   no reason to stop or force the user to choose between rebase or
-   merge if the history fast-forwards.
-
- * The configuration variable 'core.abbrev' can be set to 'no' to
-   force no abbreviation regardless of the hash algorithm.
-
- * "git rev-parse" can be explicitly told to give output as absolute
-   or relative path with the `--path-format=(absolute|relative)` option.
-
- * Bash completion (in contrib/) update to make it easier for
-   end-users to add completion for their custom "git" subcommands.
-
- * "git maintenance" learned to drive scheduled maintenance on
-   platforms whose native scheduling methods are not 'cron'.
-
- * After expiring a reflog and making a single commit, the reflog for
-   the branch would record a single entry that knows both @{0} and
-   @{1}, but we failed to answer "what commit were we on?", i.e. @{1}
-
- * "git bundle" learns "--stdin" option to read its refs from the
-   standard input.  Also, it now does not lose refs whey they point
-   at the same object.
-
- * "git log" learned a new "--diff-merges=<how>" option.
-
- * "git ls-files" can and does show multiple entries when the index is
-   unmerged, which is a source for confusion unless -s/-u option is in
-   use.  A new option --deduplicate has been introduced.
-
- * `git worktree list` now annotates worktrees as prunable, shows
-   locked and prunable attributes in --porcelain mode, and gained
-   a --verbose option.
-
- * "git clone" tries to locally check out the branch pointed at by
-   HEAD of the remote repository after it is done, but the protocol
-   did not convey the information necessary to do so when copying an
-   empty repository.  The protocol v2 learned how to do so.
-
- * There are other ways than ".." for a single token to denote a
-   "commit range", namely "<rev>^!" and "<rev>^-<n>", but "git
-   range-diff" did not understand them.
-
- * The "git range-diff" command learned "--(left|right)-only" option
-   to show only one side of the compared range.
-
- * "git mergetool" feeds three versions (base, local and remote) of
-   a conflicted path unmodified.  The command learned to optionally
-   prepare these files with unconflicted parts already resolved.
-
- * The .mailmap is documented to be read only from the root level of a
-   working tree, but a stray file in a bare repository also was read
-   by accident, which has been corrected.
-
- * "git maintenance" tool learned a new "pack-refs" maintenance task.
-
- * The error message given when a configuration variable that is
-   expected to have a boolean value has been improved.
-
- * Signed commits and tags now allow verification of objects, whose
-   two object names (one in SHA-1, the other in SHA-256) are both
-   signed.
-
- * "git rev-list" command learned "--disk-usage" option.
-
- * "git {diff,log} --{skip,rotate}-to=<path>" allows the user to
-   discard diff output for early paths or move them to the end of the
-   output.
-
- * "git difftool" learned "--skip-to=<path>" option to restart an
-   interrupted session from an arbitrary path.
-
- * "git grep" has been tweaked to be limited to the sparse checkout
-   paths.
-
- * "git rebase --[no-]fork-point" gained a configuration variable
-   rebase.forkPoint so that users do not have to keep specifying a
-   non-default setting.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * A 3-year old test that was not testing anything useful has been
-   corrected.
-
- * Retire more names with "sha1" in it.
-
- * The topological walk codepath is covered by new trace2 stats.
-
- * Update the Code-of-conduct to version 2.0 from the upstream (we've
-   been using version 1.4).
-
- * "git mktag" validates its input using its own rules before writing
-   a tag object---it has been updated to share the logic with "git
-   fsck".
-
- * Two new ways to feed configuration variable-value pairs via
-   environment variables have been introduced, and the way
-   GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS encodes variable/value pairs has been tweaked
-   to make it more robust.
-
- * Tests have been updated so that they do not to get affected by the
-   name of the default branch "git init" creates.
-
- * "git fetch" learns to treat ref updates atomically in all-or-none
-   fashion, just like "git push" does, with the new "--atomic" option.
-
- * The peel_ref() API has been replaced with peel_iterated_oid().
-
- * The .use_shell flag in struct child_process that is passed to
-   run_command() API has been clarified with a bit more documentation.
-
- * Document, clean-up and optimize the code around the cache-tree
-   extension in the index.
-
- * The ls-refs protocol operation has been optimized to narrow the
-   sub-hierarchy of refs/ it walks to produce response.
-
- * When removing many branches and tags, the code used to do so one
-   ref at a time.  There is another API it can use to delete multiple
-   refs, and it makes quite a lot of performance difference when the
-   refs are packed.
-
- * The "pack-objects" command needs to iterate over all the tags when
-   automatic tag following is enabled, but it actually iterated over
-   all refs and then discarded everything outside "refs/tags/"
-   hierarchy, which was quite wasteful.
-
- * A perf script was made more portable.
-
- * Our setting of GitHub CI test jobs were a bit too eager to give up
-   once there is even one failure found.  Tweak the knob to allow
-   other jobs keep running even when we see a failure, so that we can
-   find more failures in a single run.
-
- * We've carried compatibility codepaths for compilers without
-   variadic macros for quite some time, but the world may be ready for
-   them to be removed.  Force compilation failure on exotic platforms
-   where variadic macros are not available to find out who screams in
-   such a way that we can easily revert if it turns out that the world
-   is not yet ready.
-
- * Code clean-up to ensure our use of hashtables using object names as
-   keys use the "struct object_id" objects, not the raw hash values.
-
- * Lose the debugging aid that may have been useful in the past, but
-   no longer is, in the "grep" codepaths.
-
- * Some pretty-format specifiers do not need the data in commit object
-   (e.g. "%H"), but we were over-eager to load and parse it, which has
-   been made even lazier.
-
- * Get rid of "GETTEXT_POISON" support altogether, which may or may
-   not be controversial.
-
- * Introduce an on-disk file to record revindex for packdata, which
-   traditionally was always created on the fly and only in-core.
-
- * The commit-graph learned to use corrected commit dates instead of
-   the generation number to help topological revision traversal.
-
- * Piecemeal of rewrite of "git bisect" in C continues.
-
- * When a pager spawned by us exited, the trace log did not record its
-   exit status correctly, which has been corrected.
-
- * Removal of GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON continues.
-
- * The code to implement "git merge-base --independent" was poorly
-   done and was kept from the very beginning of the feature.
-
- * Preliminary changes to fsmonitor integration.
-
- * Performance improvements for rename detection.
-
- * The common code to deal with "chunked file format" that is shared
-   by the multi-pack-index and commit-graph files have been factored
-   out, to help codepaths for both filetypes to become more robust.
-
- * The approach to "fsck" the incoming objects in "index-pack" is
-   attractive for performance reasons (we have them already in core,
-   inflated and ready to be inspected), but fundamentally cannot be
-   applied fully when we receive more than one pack stream, as a tree
-   object in one pack may refer to a blob object in another pack as
-   ".gitmodules", when we want to inspect blobs that are used as
-   ".gitmodules" file, for example.  Teach "index-pack" to emit
-   objects that must be inspected later and check them in the calling
-   "fetch-pack" process.
-
- * The logic to handle "trailer" related placeholders in the
-   "--format=" mechanisms in the "log" family and "for-each-ref"
-   family is getting unified.
-
- * Raise the buffer size used when writing the index file out from
-   (obviously too small) 8kB to (clearly sufficiently large) 128kB.
-
- * It is reported that open() on some platforms (e.g. macOS Big Sur)
-   can return EINTR even though our timers are set up with SA_RESTART.
-   A workaround has been implemented and enabled for macOS to rerun
-   open() transparently from the caller when this happens.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.30
------------------
-
- * Diagnose command line error of "git rebase" early.
-
- * Clean up option descriptions in "git cmd --help".
-
- * "git stash" did not work well in a sparsely checked out working
-   tree.
-
- * Some tests expect that "ls -l" output has either '-' or 'x' for
-   group executable bit, but setgid bit can be inherited from parent
-   directory and make these fields 'S' or 's' instead, causing test
-   failures.
-
- * "git for-each-repo --config=<var> <cmd>" should not run <cmd> for
-   any repository when the configuration variable <var> is not defined
-   even once.
-
- * Fix 2.29 regression where "git mergetool --tool-help" fails to list
-   all the available tools.
-
- * Fix for procedure to building CI test environment for mac.
-
- * The implementation of "git branch --sort" wrt the detached HEAD
-   display has always been hacky, which has been cleaned up.
-
- * Newline characters in the host and path part of git:// URL are
-   now forbidden.
-
- * "git diff" showed a submodule working tree with untracked cruft as
-   "Submodule commit <objectname>-dirty", but a natural expectation is
-   that the "-dirty" indicator would align with "git describe --dirty",
-   which does not consider having untracked files in the working tree
-   as source of dirtiness.  The inconsistency has been fixed.
-
- * When more than one commit with the same patch ID appears on one
-   side, "git log --cherry-pick A...B" did not exclude them all when a
-   commit with the same patch ID appears on the other side.  Now it
-   does.
-
- * Documentation for "git fsck" lost stale bits that has become
-   incorrect.
-
- * Doc fix for packfile URI feature.
-
- * When "git rebase -i" processes "fixup" insn, there is no reason to
-   clean up the commit log message, but we did the usual stripspace
-   processing.  This has been corrected.
-   (merge f7d42ceec5 js/rebase-i-commit-cleanup-fix later to maint).
-
- * Fix in passing custom args from "git clone" to "upload-pack" on the
-   other side.
-   (merge ad6b5fefbd jv/upload-pack-filter-spec-quotefix later to maint).
-
- * The command line completion (in contrib/) completed "git branch -d"
-   with branch names, but "git branch -D" offered tagnames in addition,
-   which has been corrected.  "git branch -M" had the same problem.
-   (merge 27dc071b9a jk/complete-branch-force-delete later to maint).
-
- * When commands are started from a subdirectory, they may have to
-   compare the path to the subdirectory (called prefix and found out
-   from $(pwd)) with the tracked paths.  On macOS, $(pwd) and
-   readdir() yield decomposed path, while the tracked paths are
-   usually normalized to the precomposed form, causing mismatch.  This
-   has been fixed by taking the same approach used to normalize the
-   command line arguments.
-   (merge 5c327502db tb/precompose-prefix-too later to maint).
-
- * Even though invocations of "die()" were logged to the trace2
-   system, "BUG()"s were not, which has been corrected.
-   (merge 0a9dde4a04 jt/trace2-BUG later to maint).
-
- * "git grep --untracked" is meant to be "let's ALSO find in these
-   files on the filesystem" when looking for matches in the working
-   tree files, and does not make any sense if the primary search is
-   done against the index, or the tree objects.  The "--cached" and
-   "--untracked" options have been marked as mutually incompatible.
-   (merge 0c5d83b248 mt/grep-cached-untracked later to maint).
-
- * Fix "git fsck --name-objects" which apparently has not been used by
-   anybody who is motivated enough to report breakage.
-   (merge e89f89361c js/fsck-name-objects-fix later to maint).
-
- * Avoid individual tests in t5411 from getting affected by each other
-   by forcing them to use separate output files during the test.
-   (merge 822ee894f6 jx/t5411-unique-filenames later to maint).
-
- * Test to make sure "git rev-parse one-thing one-thing" gives
-   the same thing twice (when one-thing is --since=X).
-   (merge a5cdca4520 ew/rev-parse-since-test later to maint).
-
- * When certain features (e.g. grafts) used in the repository are
-   incompatible with the use of the commit-graph, we used to silently
-   turned commit-graph off; we now tell the user what we are doing.
-   (merge c85eec7fc3 js/commit-graph-warning later to maint).
-
- * Objects that lost references can be pruned away, even when they
-   have notes attached to it (and these notes will become dangling,
-   which in turn can be pruned with "git notes prune").  This has been
-   clarified in the documentation.
-   (merge fa9ab027ba mz/doc-notes-are-not-anchors later to maint).
-
- * The error codepath around the "--temp/--prefix" feature of "git
-   checkout-index" has been improved.
-   (merge 3f7ba60350 mt/checkout-index-corner-cases later to maint).
-
- * The "git maintenance register" command had trouble registering bare
-   repositories, which had been corrected.
-
- * A handful of multi-word configuration variable names in
-   documentation that are spelled in all lowercase have been corrected
-   to use the more canonical camelCase.
-   (merge 7dd0eaa39c dl/doc-config-camelcase later to maint).
-
- * "git push $there --delete ''" should have been diagnosed as an
-   error, but instead turned into a matching push, which has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge 20e416409f jc/push-delete-nothing later to maint).
-
- * Test script modernization.
-   (merge 488acf15df sv/t7001-modernize later to maint).
-
- * An under-allocation for the untracked cache data has been corrected.
-   (merge 6347d649bc jh/untracked-cache-fix later to maint).
-
- * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.

-
- * The fsmonitor interface read from its input without making sure

-   timeframe.
-
- * The data structure used by fsmonitor interface was not properly

- * CALLOC_ARRAY() macro replaces many uses of xcalloc().
-
- * Update insn in Makefile comments to run fuzz-all target.
-
- * Fix a corner case bug in "git mv" on case insensitive systems,
-   which was introduced in 2.29 timeframe.

-======================
-
-Backward compatibility notes
-----------------------------
-
- * ".gitattributes", ".gitignore", and ".mailmap" files that are
-   symbolic links are ignored.
-
- * "git apply --3way" used to first attempt a straight application,
-   and only fell back to the 3-way merge algorithm when the stright
-   application failed.  Starting with this version, the command will
-   first try the 3-way merge algorithm and only when it fails (either
-   resulting with conflict or the base versions of blobs are missing),
-   falls back to the usual patch application.
-
-
-Updates since v2.31
--------------------
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * It does not make sense to make ".gitattributes", ".gitignore" and
-   ".mailmap" symlinks, as they are supposed to be usable from the
-   object store (think: bare repositories where HEAD:.mailmap etc. are
-   used).  When these files are symbolic links, we used to read the
-   contents of the files pointed by them by mistake, which has been
-   corrected.
-
- * "git stash show" learned to optionally show untracked part of the
-   stash.
-
- * "git log --format='...'" learned "%(describe)" placeholder.
-
- * "git repack" so far has been only capable of repacking everything
-   under the sun into a single pack (or split by size).  A cleverer
-   strategy to reduce the cost of repacking a repository has been
-   introduced.
-
- * The http codepath learned to let the credential layer to cache the
-   password used to unlock a certificate that has successfully been
-   used.
-
- * "git commit --fixup=<commit>", which was to tweak the changes made
-   to the contents while keeping the original log message intact,
-   learned "--fixup=(amend|reword):<commit>", that can be used to
-   tweak both the message and the contents, and only the message,
-   respectively.
-
- * "git send-email" learned to honor the core.hooksPath configuration.
-
- * "git format-patch -v<n>" learned to allow a reroll count that is
-   not an integer.
-
- * "git commit" learned "--trailer <key>[=<value>]" option; together
-   with the interpret-trailers command, this will make it easier to
-   support custom trailers.
-
- * "git clone --reject-shallow" option fails the clone as soon as we
-   notice that we are cloning from a shallow repository.
-
- * A configuration variable has been added to force tips of certain
-   refs to be given a reachability bitmap.
-
- * "gitweb" learned "e-mail privacy" feature to redact strings that
-   look like e-mail addresses on various pages.
-
- * "git apply --3way" has always been "to fall back to 3-way merge
-   only when straight application fails". Swap the order of falling
-   back so that 3-way is always attempted first (only when the option
-   is given, of course) and then straight patch application is used as
-   a fallback when it fails.
-
- * "git apply" now takes "--3way" and "--cached" at the same time, and
-   work and record results only in the index.
-
- * The command line completion (in contrib/) has learned that
-   CHERRY_PICK_HEAD is a possible pseudo-ref.
-
- * Userdiff patterns for "Scheme" has been added.
-
- * "git log" learned "--diff-merges=<style>" option, with an
-   associated configuration variable log.diffMerges.
-
- * "git log --format=..." placeholders learned %ah/%ch placeholders to
-   request the --date=human output.
-
- * Replace GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM mechanism to decline from reading the
-   system-wide configuration file with GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM that lets
-   users specify from which file to read the system-wide configuration
-   (setting it to an empty file would essentially be the same as
-   setting NOSYSTEM), and introduce GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL to override the
-   per-user configuration in $HOME/.gitconfig.
-
- * "git add" and "git rm" learned not to touch those paths that are
-   outside of sparse checkout.
-
- * "git rev-list" learns the "--filter=object:type=<type>" option,
-   which can be used to exclude objects of the given kind from the
-   packfile generated by pack-objects.
-
- * The command line completion (in contrib/) for "git stash" has been
-   updated.
-
- * "git subtree" updates.
-
- * It is now documented that "format-patch" skips merges.
-
- * Options to "git pack-objects" that take numeric values like
-   --window and --depth should not accept negative values; the input
-   validation has been tightened.
-
- * The way the command line specified by the trailer.<token>.command
-   configuration variable receives the end-user supplied value was
-   both error prone and misleading.  An alternative to achieve the
-   same goal in a safer and more intuitive way has been added, as
-   the trailer.<token>.cmd configuration variable, to replace it.
-
- * "git add -i --dry-run" does not dry-run, which was surprising.  The
-   combination of options has taught to error out.
-
- * "git push" learns to discover common ancestor with the receiving
-   end over protocol v2.  This will hopefully make "git push" as
-   efficient as "git fetch" in avoiding objects from getting
-   transferred unnecessarily.
-
- * "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") learned the "--quoted-cr" option to
-   control how lines ending with CRLF wrapped in base64 or qp are
-   handled.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * Rename detection rework continues.
-
- * GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS is a mechanism to skip test pieces with
-   prerequisites to catch broken tests that depend on the side effects
-   of optional pieces, but did not work at all when negative
-   prerequisites were involved.
-   (merge 27d578d904 jk/fail-prereq-testfix later to maint).
-
- * "git diff-index" codepath has been taught to trust fsmonitor status
-   to reduce number of lstat() calls.
-   (merge 7e5aa13d2c nk/diff-index-fsmonitor later to maint).
-
- * Reorganize Makefile to allow building git.o and other essential
-   objects without extra stuff needed only for testing.
-
- * Preparatory API changes for parallel checkout.
-
- * A simple IPC interface gets introduced to build services like
-   fsmonitor on top.
-
- * Fsck API clean-up.
-
- * SECURITY.md that is facing individual contributors and end users
-   has been introduced.  Also a procedure to follow when preparing
-   embargoed releases has been spelled out.
-   (merge 09420b7648 js/security-md later to maint).
-
- * Optimize "rev-list --use-bitmap-index --objects" corner case that
-   uses negative tags as the stopping points.
-
- * CMake update for vsbuild.
-
- * An on-disk reverse-index to map the in-pack location of an object
-   back to its object name across multiple packfiles is introduced.
-
- * Generate [ec]tags under $(QUIET_GEN).
-
- * Clean-up codepaths that implements "git send-email --validate"
-   option and improves the message from it.
-
- * The last remnant of gettext-poison has been removed.
-
- * The test framework has been taught to optionally turn the default
-   merge strategy to "ort" throughout the system where we use
-   three-way merges internally, like cherry-pick, rebase etc.,
-   primarily to enhance its test coverage (the strategy has been
-   available as an explicit "-s ort" choice).
-
- * A bit of code clean-up and a lot of test clean-up around userdiff
-   area.
-
- * Handling of "promisor packs" that allows certain objects to be
-   missing and lazily retrievable has been optimized (a bit).
-
- * When packet_write() fails, we gave an extra error message
-   unnecessarily, which has been corrected.
-
- * The checkout machinery has been taught to perform the actual
-   write-out of the files in parallel when able.
-
- * Show errno in the trace output in the error codepath that calls
-   read_raw_ref method.
-
- * Effort to make the command line completion (in contrib/) safe with
-   "set -u" continues.
-
- * Tweak a few tests for "log --format=..." that show timestamps in
-   various formats.
-
- * The reflog expiry machinery has been taught to emit trace events.
-
- * Over-the-wire protocol learns a new request type to ask for object
-   sizes given a list of object names.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.31
------------------
-
- * The fsmonitor interface read from its input without making sure
-   there is something to read from.  This bug is new in 2.31
-   timeframe.
-
- * The data structure used by fsmonitor interface was not properly
-   duplicated during an in-core merge, leading to use-after-free etc.
-
- * "git bisect" reimplemented more in C during 2.30 timeframe did not
-   take an annotated tag as a good/bad endpoint well.  This regression
-   has been corrected.
-
- * Fix macros that can silently inject unintended null-statements.
-
- * CALLOC_ARRAY() macro replaces many uses of xcalloc().
-
- * Update insn in Makefile comments to run fuzz-all target.
-
- * Fix a corner case bug in "git mv" on case insensitive systems,
-   which was introduced in 2.29 timeframe.
-
- * We had a code to diagnose and die cleanly when a required
-   clean/smudge filter is missing, but an assert before that
-   unnecessarily fired, hiding the end-user facing die() message.
-   (merge 6fab35f748 mt/cleanly-die-upon-missing-required-filter later to maint).
-
- * Update C code that sets a few configuration variables when a remote
-   is configured so that it spells configuration variable names in the
-   canonical camelCase.
-   (merge 0f1da600e6 ab/remote-write-config-in-camel-case later to maint).
-
- * A new configuration variable has been introduced to allow choosing
-   which version of the generation number gets used in the
-   commit-graph file.
-   (merge 702110aac6 ds/commit-graph-generation-config later to maint).
-
- * Perf test update to work better in secondary worktrees.
-   (merge 36e834abc1 jk/perf-in-worktrees later to maint).
-
- * Updates to memory allocation code around the use of pcre2 library.
-   (merge c1760352e0 ab/grep-pcre2-allocfix later to maint).
-
- * "git -c core.bare=false clone --bare ..." would have segfaulted,
-   which has been corrected.
-   (merge 75555676ad bc/clone-bare-with-conflicting-config later to maint).
-
- * When "git checkout" removes a path that does not exist in the
-   commit it is checking out, it wasn't careful enough not to follow
-   symbolic links, which has been corrected.
-   (merge fab78a0c3d mt/checkout-remove-nofollow later to maint).
-
- * A few option description strings started with capital letters,
-   which were corrected.
-   (merge 5ee90326dc cc/downcase-opt-help later to maint).
-
- * Plug or annotate remaining leaks that trigger while running the
-   very basic set of tests.
-   (merge 68ffe095a2 ah/plugleaks later to maint).
-
- * The hashwrite() API uses a buffering mechanism to avoid calling
-   write(2) too frequently. This logic has been refactored to be
-   easier to understand.
-   (merge ddaf1f62e3 ds/clarify-hashwrite later to maint).
-
- * "git cherry-pick/revert" with or without "--[no-]edit" did not spawn
-   the editor as expected (e.g. "revert --no-edit" after a conflict
-   still asked to edit the message), which has been corrected.
-   (merge 39edfd5cbc en/sequencer-edit-upon-conflict-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git daemon" has been tightened against systems that take backslash
-   as directory separator.
-   (merge 9a7f1ce8b7 rs/daemon-sanitize-dir-sep later to maint).
-
- * A NULL-dereference bug has been corrected in an error codepath in

-
- * Streamline the codepath to fix the UTF-8 encoding issues in the
-   argv[] and the prefix on macOS.
-   (merge c7d0e61016 tb/precompose-prefix-simplify later to maint).
-
- * The command-line completion script (in contrib/) had a couple of
-   references that would have given a warning under the "-u" (nounset)
-   option.
-   (merge c5c0548d79 vs/completion-with-set-u later to maint).
-
- * When "git pack-objects" makes a literal copy of a part of existing
-   packfile using the reachability bitmaps, its update to the progress
-   meter was broken.
-   (merge 8e118e8490 jk/pack-objects-bitmap-progress-fix later to maint).
-
- * The dependencies for config-list.h and command-list.h were broken
-   when the former was split out of the latter, which has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge 56550ea718 sg/bugreport-fixes later to maint).
-
- * "git push --quiet --set-upstream" was not quiet when setting the
-   upstream branch configuration, which has been corrected.
-   (merge f3cce896a8 ow/push-quiet-set-upstream later to maint).
-
- * The prefetch task in "git maintenance" assumed that "git fetch"
-   from any remote would fetch all its local branches, which would
-   fetch too much if the user is interested in only a subset of
-   branches there.
-   (merge 32f67888d8 ds/maintenance-prefetch-fix later to maint).
-
- * Clarify that pathnames recorded in Git trees are most often (but
-   not necessarily) encoded in UTF-8.
-   (merge 9364bf465d ab/pathname-encoding-doc later to maint).
-
- * "git --config-env var=val cmd" weren't accepted (only
-   --config-env=var=val was).
-   (merge c331551ccf ps/config-env-option-with-separate-value later to maint).
-
- * When the reachability bitmap is in effect, the "do not lose
-   recently created objects and those that are reachable from them"
-   safety to protect us from races were disabled by mistake, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge 2ba582ba4c jk/prune-with-bitmap-fix later to maint).
-
- * Cygwin pathname handling fix.
-   (merge bccc37fdc7 ad/cygwin-no-backslashes-in-paths later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase --[no-]reschedule-failed-exec" did not work well with
-   its configuration variable, which has been corrected.
-   (merge e5b32bffd1 ab/rebase-no-reschedule-failed-exec later to maint).
-
- * Portability fix for command line completion script (in contrib/).
-   (merge f2acf763e2 si/zsh-complete-comment-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git repack -A -d" in a partial clone unnecessarily loosened
-   objects in promisor pack.
-
- * "git bisect skip" when custom words are used for new/old did not
-   work, which has been corrected.
-
- * A few variants of informational message "Already up-to-date" has
-   been rephrased.
-   (merge ad9322da03 js/merge-already-up-to-date-message-reword later to maint).
-
- * "git submodule update --quiet" did not propagate the quiet option
-   down to underlying "git fetch", which has been corrected.
-   (merge 62af4bdd42 nc/submodule-update-quiet later to maint).
-
- * Document that our test can use "local" keyword.
-   (merge a84fd3bcc6 jc/test-allows-local later to maint).
-
- * The word-diff mode has been taught to work better with a word
-   regexp that can match an empty string.
-   (merge 0324e8fc6b pw/word-diff-zero-width-matches later to maint).
-
- * "git p4" learned to find branch points more efficiently.
-   (merge 6b79818bfb jk/p4-locate-branch-point-optim later to maint).
-
- * When "git update-ref -d" removes a ref that is packed, it left
-   empty directories under $GIT_DIR/refs/ for
-   (merge 5f03e5126d wc/packed-ref-removal-cleanup later to maint).
-
- * "git clean" and "git ls-files -i" had confusion around working on
-   or showing ignored paths inside an ignored directory, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge b548f0f156 en/dir-traversal later to maint).
-
- * The handling of "%(push)" formatting element of "for-each-ref" and
-   friends was broken when the same codepath started handling
-   "%(push:<what>)", which has been corrected.
-   (merge 1e1c4c5eac zh/ref-filter-push-remote-fix later to maint).
-
- * The bash prompt script (in contrib/) did not work under "set -u".
-   (merge 5c0cbdb107 en/prompt-under-set-u later to maint).
-
- * The "chainlint" feature in the test framework is a handy way to
-   catch common mistakes in writing new tests, but tends to get
-   expensive.  An knob to selectively disable it has been introduced
-   to help running tests that the developer has not modified.
-   (merge 2d86a96220 jk/test-chainlint-softer later to maint).
-
- * The "rev-parse" command did not diagnose the lack of argument to
-   "--path-format" option, which was introduced in v2.31 era, which
-   has been corrected.
-   (merge 99fc555188 wm/rev-parse-path-format-wo-arg later to maint).
-
- * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.

-Git 2.33 Release Notes
-======================
-
-Updates since Git 2.32
-----------------------
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * "git send-email" learned the "--sendmail-cmd" command line option
-   and the "sendemail.sendmailCmd" configuration variable, which is a
-   more sensible approach than the current way of repurposing the
-   "smtp-server" that is meant to name the server to instead name the
-   command to talk to the server.
-
- * The userdiff pattern for C# learned the token "record".
-
- * "git rev-list" learns to omit the "commit <object-name>" header
-   lines from the output with the `--no-commit-header` option.
-
- * "git worktree add --lock" learned to record why the worktree is
-   locked with a custom message.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * The code to handle the "--format" option in "for-each-ref" and
-   friends made too many string comparisons on %(atom)s used in the
-   format string, which has been corrected by converting them into
-   enum when the format string is parsed.
-
- * Use the hashfile API in the codepath that writes the index file to
-   reduce code duplication.
-
- * Repeated rename detections in a sequence of mergy operations have
-   been optimized out for the 'ort' merge strategy.
-
- * Preliminary clean-up of tests before the main reftable changes
-   hits the codebase.
-
- * The backend for "diff -G/-S" has been updated to use pcre2 engine
-   when available.
-
- * Use ".DELETE_ON_ERROR" pseudo target to simplify our Makefile.
-
- * Code cleanup around struct_type_init() functions.
-
- * "git send-email" optimization.
-
- * GitHub Actions / CI update.
-   (merge 0dc787a9f2 js/ci-windows-update later to maint).
-
- * Object accesses in repositories with many alternate object store
-   have been optimized.
-
- * "git log" has been optimized not to waste cycles to load ref
-   decoration data that may not be needed.
-
- * Many "printf"-like helper functions we have have been annotated
-   with __attribute__() to catch placeholder/parameter mismatches.
-
- * Tests that cover protocol bits have been updated and helpers
-   used there have been consolidated.
-
- * The CI gained a new job to run "make sparse" check.
-
- * "git status" codepath learned to work with sparsely populated index
-   without hydrating it fully.
-
- * A guideline for gender neutral documentation has been added.
-
- * Documentation on "git diff -l<n>" and diff.renameLimit have been
-   updated, and the defaults for these limits have been raised.
-
- * The completion support used to offer alternate spelling of options
-   that exist only for compatibility, which has been corrected.
-
- * "TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY=there make test" failed to work, which has
-   been corrected.
-
- * "git bundle" gained more test coverage.
-
- * "git read-tree" had a codepath where blobs are fetched one-by-one
-   from the promisor remote, which has been corrected to fetch in bulk.
-
- * Rewrite of "git submodule" in C continues.
-
- * "git checkout" and "git commit" learn to work without unnecessarily
-   expanding sparse indexes.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.32
------------------
-
- * We historically rejected a very short string as an author name
-   while accepting a patch e-mail, which has been loosened.
-   (merge 72ee47ceeb ef/mailinfo-short-name later to maint).
-
- * The parallel checkout codepath did not initialize object ID field
-   used to talk to the worker processes in a futureproof way.
-
- * Rewrite code that triggers undefined behaviour warning.
-   (merge aafa5df0df jn/size-t-casted-to-off-t-fix later to maint).
-
- * The description of "fast-forward" in the glossary has been updated.
-   (merge e22f2daed0 ry/clarify-fast-forward-in-glossary later to maint).
-
- * Recent "git clone" left a temporary directory behind when the
-   transport layer returned an failure.
-   (merge 6aacb7d861 jk/clone-clean-upon-transport-error later to maint).
-
- * "git fetch" over protocol v2 left its side of the socket open after
-   it finished speaking, which unnecessarily wasted the resource on
-   the other side.
-   (merge ae1a7eefff jk/fetch-pack-v2-half-close-early later to maint).
-
- * The command line completion (in contrib/) learned that "git diff"
-   takes the "--anchored" option.
-   (merge d1e7c2cac9 tb/complete-diff-anchored later to maint).
-
- * "git-svn" tests assumed that "locale -a", which is used to pick an
-   available UTF-8 locale, is available everywhere.  A knob has been
-   introduced to allow testers to specify a suitable locale to use.
-   (merge 482c962de4 dd/svn-test-wo-locale-a later to maint).
-
- * Update "git subtree" to work better on Windows.
-   (merge 77f37de39f js/subtree-on-windows-fix later to maint).
-
- * Remove multimail from contrib/
-   (merge f74d11471f js/no-more-multimail later to maint).
-
- * Make the codebase MSAN clean.
-   (merge 4dbc55e87d ah/uninitialized-reads-fix later to maint).
-
- * Work around inefficient glob substitution in older versions of bash
-   by rewriting parts of a test.
-   (merge eb87c6f559 jx/t6020-with-older-bash later to maint).
-
- * Avoid duplicated work while building reachability bitmaps.
-   (merge aa9ad6fee5 jk/bitmap-tree-optim later to maint).
-
- * We broke "GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t?000" to skip certain tests in recent
-   update, which got fixed.
-
- * The side-band demultiplexer that is used to display progress output
-   from the remote end did not clear the line properly when the end of
-   line hits at a packet boundary, which has been corrected.
-
- * Some test scripts assumed that readlink(1) was universally
-   installed and available, which is not the case.
-   (merge 7c0afdf23c jk/test-without-readlink-1 later to maint).
-
- * Recent update to completion script (in contrib/) broke those who
-   use the __git_complete helper to define completion to their custom
-   command.
-   (merge cea232194d fw/complete-cmd-idx-fix later to maint).
-
- * Output from some of our tests were affected by the width of the
-   terminal that they were run in, which has been corrected by
-   exporting a fixed value in the COLUMNS environment.
-   (merge c49a177bec ab/fix-columns-to-80-during-tests later to maint).
-
- * On Windows, mergetool has been taught to find kdiff3.exe just like
-   it finds winmerge.exe.
-   (merge 47eb4c6890 ms/mergetools-kdiff3-on-windows later to maint).
-
- * When we cannot figure out how wide the terminal is, we use a
-   fallback value of 80 ourselves (which cannot be avoided), but when
-   we run the pager, we export it in COLUMNS, which forces the pager
-   to use the hardcoded value, even when the pager is perfectly
-   capable to figure it out itself.  Stop exporting COLUMNS when we
-   fall back on the hardcoded default value for our own use.
-   (merge 9b6e2c8b98 js/stop-exporting-bogus-columns later to maint).
-
- * "git cat-file --batch-all-objects"" misbehaved when "--batch" is in
-   use and did not ask for certain object traits.
-   (merge ee02ac6164 zh/cat-file-batch-fix later to maint).
-
- * Some code and doc clarification around "git push".
-
- * The "union" conflict resultion variant misbehaved when used with
-   binary merge driver.
-   (merge 382b601acd jk/union-merge-binary later to maint).
-
- * Prevent "git p4" from failing to submit changes to binary file.
-   (merge 54662d5958 dc/p4-binary-submit-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git grep --and -e foo" ought to have been diagnosed as an error
-   but instead segfaulted, which has been corrected.
-   (merge fe7fe62d8d rs/grep-parser-fix later to maint).
-
- * The merge code had funny interactions between content based rename
-   detection and directory rename detection.
-   (merge 3585d0ea23 en/merge-dir-rename-corner-case-fix later to maint).
-
- * When rebuilding the multi-pack index file reusing an existing one,
-   we used to blindly trust the existing file and ended up carrying
-   corrupted data into the updated file, which has been corrected.
-   (merge f89ecf7988 tb/midx-use-checksum later to maint).
-
- * Update the location of system-side configuration file on Windows.
-   (merge e355307692 js/gfw-system-config-loc-fix later to maint).
-
- * Code recently added to support common ancestry negotiation during
-   "git push" did not sanity check its arguments carefully enough.
-   (merge eff40457a4 ab/fetch-negotiate-segv-fix later to maint).
-
- * Update the documentation not to assume users are of certain gender
-   and adds to guidelines to do so.
-   (merge 46a237f42f ds/gender-neutral-doc later to maint).
-
- * "git commit --allow-empty-message" won't abort the operation upon
-   an empty message, but the hint shown in the editor said otherwise.
-   (merge 6f70f00b4f hj/commit-allow-empty-message later to maint).
-
- * The code that gives an error message in "git multi-pack-index" when
-   no subcommand is given tried to print a NULL pointer as a strong,
-   which has been corrected.
-   (merge 88617d11f9 tb/reverse-midx later to maint).
-
- * CI update.
-   (merge a066a90db6 js/ci-check-whitespace-updates later to maint).

-Git 2.33.1 Release Notes
-========================
-
-This primarily is to backport various fixes accumulated during the
-development towards Git 2.34, the next feature release.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.33
------------------
-
- * The unicode character width table (used for output alignment) has
-   been updated.
-
- * Input validation of "git pack-objects --stdin-packs" has been
-   corrected.
-
- * Bugfix for common ancestor negotiation recently introduced in "git
-   push" codepath.
-
- * "git pull" had various corner cases that were not well thought out
-   around its --rebase backend, e.g. "git pull --ff-only" did not stop
-   but went ahead and rebased when the history on other side is not a
-   descendant of our history.  The series tries to fix them up.
-
- * "git apply" miscounted the bytes and failed to read to the end of
-   binary hunks.
-
- * "git range-diff" code clean-up.
-
- * "git commit --fixup" now works with "--edit" again, after it was
-   broken in v2.32.
-
- * Use upload-artifacts v1 (instead of v2) for 32-bit linux, as the
-   new version has a blocker bug for that architecture.
-
- * Checking out all the paths from HEAD during the last conflicted
-   step in "git rebase" and continuing would cause the step to be
-   skipped (which is expected), but leaves MERGE_MSG file behind in
-   $GIT_DIR and confuses the next "git commit", which has been
-   corrected.
-
- * Various bugs in "git rebase -r" have been fixed.
-
- * mmap() imitation used to call xmalloc() that dies upon malloc()
-   failure, which has been corrected to just return an error to the
-   caller to be handled.
-
- * "git diff --relative" segfaulted and/or produced incorrect result
-   when there are unmerged paths.
-
- * The delayed checkout code path in "git checkout" etc. were chatty
-   even when --quiet and/or --no-progress options were given.
-
- * "git branch -D <branch>" used to refuse to remove a broken branch
-   ref that points at a missing commit, which has been corrected.
-
- * Build update for Apple clang.
-
- * The parser for the "--nl" option of "git column" has been
-   corrected.
-
- * "git upload-pack" which runs on the other side of "git fetch"
-   forgot to take the ref namespaces into account when handling
-   want-ref requests.
-
- * The sparse-index support can corrupt the index structure by storing
-   a stale and/or uninitialized data, which has been corrected.
-
- * Buggy tests could damage repositories outside the throw-away test
-   area we created.  We now by default export GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES
-   to limit the damage from such a stray test.
-
- * Even when running "git send-email" without its own threaded
-   discussion support, a threading related header in one message is
-   carried over to the subsequent message to result in an unwanted
-   threading, which has been corrected.
-
- * The output from "git fast-export", when its anonymization feature
-   is in use, showed an annotated tag incorrectly.
-
- * Recent "diff -m" changes broke "gitk", which has been corrected.
-
- * "git maintenance" scheduler fix for macOS.
-
- * A pathname in an advice message has been made cut-and-paste ready.
-
- * The "git apply -3" code path learned not to bother the lower level
-   merge machinery when the three-way merge can be trivially resolved
-   without the content level merge.
-
- * The code that optionally creates the *.rev reverse index file has
-   been optimized to avoid needless computation when it is not writing
-   the file out.
-
- * "git range-diff -I... <range> <range>" segfaulted, which has been
-   corrected.
-
- * The order in which various files that make up a single (conceptual)
-   packfile has been reevaluated and straightened up.  This matters in
-   correctness, as an incomplete set of files must not be shown to a
-   running Git.
-
- * The "mode" word is useless in a call to open(2) that does not
-   create a new file.  Such a call in the files backend of the ref
-   subsystem has been cleaned up.
-
- * "git update-ref --stdin" failed to flush its output as needed,
-   which potentially led the conversation to a deadlock.
-
- * When "git am --abort" fails to abort correctly, it still exited
-   with exit status of 0, which has been corrected.
-
- * Correct nr and alloc members of strvec struct to be of type size_t.
-
- * "git stash", where the tentative change involves changing a
-   directory to a file (or vice versa), was confused, which has been
-   corrected.
-
- * "git clone" from a repository whose HEAD is unborn into a bare
-   repository didn't follow the branch name the other side used, which
-   is corrected.
-
- * "git cvsserver" had a long-standing bug in its authentication code,
-   which has finally been corrected (it is unclear and is a separate
-   question if anybody is seriously using it, though).
-
- * "git difftool --dir-diff" mishandled symbolic links.
-
- * Sensitive data in the HTTP trace were supposed to be redacted, but
-   we failed to do so in HTTP/2 requests.
-
- * "make clean" has been updated to remove leftover .depend/
-   directories, even when it is not told to use them to compute header
-   dependencies.
-
- * Protocol v0 clients can get stuck parsing a malformed feature line.
-
-Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.

-Git 2.34 Release Notes
-======================
-
-Updates since Git 2.33
-----------------------
-
-Backward compatibility notes
-
- * The "--preserve-merges" option of "git rebase" has been removed.
-
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * Pathname expansion (like "~username/") learned a way to specify a
-   location relative to Git installation (e.g. its $sharedir which is
-   $(prefix)/share), with "%(prefix)".
-
- * The `ort` strategy is used instead of `recursive` as the default
-   merge strategy.
-
- * The userdiff pattern for "java" language has been updated.
-
- * "git rebase" by default skips changes that are equivalent to
-   commits that are already in the history the branch is rebased onto;
-   give messages when this happens to let the users be aware of
-   skipped commits, and also teach them how to tell "rebase" to keep
-   duplicated changes.
-
- * The advice message that "git cherry-pick" gives when it asks
-   conflicted replay of a commit to be resolved by the end user has
-   been updated.
-
- * After "git clone --recurse-submodules", all submodules are cloned
-   but they are not by default recursed into by other commands.  With
-   submodule.stickyRecursiveClone configuration set, submodule.recurse
-   configuration is set to true in a repository created by "clone"
-   with "--recurse-submodules" option.
-
- * The logic for auto-correction of misspelt subcommands learned to go
-   interactive when the help.autocorrect configuration variable is set
-   to 'prompt'.
-
- * "git maintenance" scheduler learned to use systemd timers as a
-   possible backend.
-
- * "git diff --submodule=diff" showed failure from run_command() when
-   trying to run diff inside a submodule, when the user manually
-   removes the submodule directory.
-
- * "git bundle unbundle" learned to show progress display.
-
- * In cone mode, the sparse-index code path learned to remove ignored
-   files (like build artifacts) outside the sparse cone, allowing the
-   entire directory outside the sparse cone to be removed, which is
-   especially useful when the sparse patterns change.
-
- * Taking advantage of the CGI interface, http-backend has been
-   updated to enable protocol v2 automatically when the other side
-   asks for it.
-
- * The credential-cache helper has been adjusted to Windows.
-
- * The error in "git help no-such-git-command" is handled better.
-
- * The unicode character width table (used for output alignment) has
-   been updated.
-
- * The ref iteration code used to optionally allow dangling refs to be
-   shown, which has been tightened up.
-
- * "git add", "git mv", and "git rm" have been adjusted to avoid
-   updating paths outside of the sparse-checkout definition unless
-   the user specifies a "--sparse" option.
-
- * "git repack" has been taught to generate multi-pack reachability
-   bitmaps.
-
- * "git fsck" has been taught to report mismatch between expected and
-   actual types of an object better.
-
- * In addition to GnuPG, ssh public crypto can be used for object and
-   push-cert signing.  Note that this feature cannot be used with
-   ssh-keygen from OpenSSH 8.7, whose support for it is broken.  Avoid
-   using it unless you update to OpenSSH 8.8.
-
- * "git log --grep=string --author=name" learns to highlight hits just
-   like "git grep string" does.
-
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * "git bisect" spawned "git show-branch" only to pretty-print the
-   title of the commit after checking out the next version to be
-   tested; this has been rewritten in C.
-
- * "git add" can work better with the sparse index.
-
- * Support for ancient versions of cURL library (pre 7.19.4) has been
-   dropped.
-
- * A handful of tests that assumed implementation details of files
-   backend for refs have been cleaned up.
-
- * trace2 logs learned to show parent process name to see in what
-   context Git was invoked.
-
- * Loading of ref tips to prepare for common ancestry negotiation in
-   "git fetch-pack" has been optimized by taking advantage of the
-   commit graph when available.
-
- * Remind developers that the userdiff patterns should be kept simple
-   and permissive, assuming that the contents they apply are always
-   syntactically correct.
-
- * The current implementation of GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS is broken in
-   that checking for the lack of a prerequisite would not work.  Avoid
-   the use of "if ! test_have_prereq X" in a test script.
-
- * The revision traversal API has been optimized by taking advantage
-   of the commit-graph, when available, to determine if a commit is
-   reachable from any of the existing refs.
-
- * "git fetch --quiet" optimization to avoid useless computation of
-   info that will never be displayed.
-
- * Callers from older advice_config[] based API has been updated to
-   use the newer advice_if_enabled() and advice_enabled() API.
-
- * Teach "test_pause" and "debug" helpers to allow using the HOME and
-   TERM environment variables the user usually uses.
-
- * "make INSTALL_STRIP=-s install" allows the installation step to use
-   "install -s" to strip the binaries as they get installed.
-
- * Code that handles large number of refs in the "git fetch" code
-   path has been optimized.
-
- * The reachability bitmap file used to be generated only for a single
-   pack, but now we've learned to generate bitmaps for history that
-   span across multiple packfiles.
-
- * The code to make "git grep" recurse into submodules has been
-   updated to migrate away from the "add submodule's object store as
-   an alternate object store" mechanism (which is suboptimal).
-
- * The tracing of process ancestry information has been enhanced.
-
- * Reduce number of write(2) system calls while sending the
-   ref advertisement.
-
- * Update the build procedure to use the "-pedantic" build when
-   DEVELOPER makefile macro is in effect.
-
- * Large part of "git submodule add" gets rewritten in C.
-
- * The run-command API has been updated so that the callers can easily
-   ask the file descriptors open for packfiles to be closed immediately
-   before spawning commands that may trigger auto-gc.
-
- * An oddball OPTION_ARGUMENT feature has been removed from the
-   parse-options API.
-
- * The mergesort implementation used to sort linked list has been
-   optimized.
-
- * Remove external declaration of functions that no longer exist.
-
- * "git multi-pack-index write --bitmap" learns to propagate the
-   hashcache from original bitmap to resulting bitmap.
-
- * CI learns to run the leak sanitizer builds.
-
- * "git grep --recurse-submodules" takes trees and blobs from the
-   submodule repository, but the textconv settings when processing a
-   blob from the submodule is not taken from the submodule repository.
-   A test is added to demonstrate the issue, without fixing it.
-
- * Teach "git help -c" into helping the command line completion of
-   configuration variables.
-
- * When "git cmd -h" shows more than one line of usage text (e.g.
-   the cmd subcommand may take sub-sub-command), parse-options API
-   learned to align these lines, even across i18n/l10n.
-
- * Prevent "make sparse" from running for the source files that
-   haven't been modified.
-
- * The code path to write a new version of .midx multi-pack index files
-   has learned to release the mmaped memory holding the current
-   version of .midx before removing them from the disk, as some
-   platforms do not allow removal of a file that still has mapping.
-
- * A new feature has been added to abort early in the test framework.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.33
------------------
-
- * Input validation of "git pack-objects --stdin-packs" has been
-   corrected.
-
- * Bugfix for common ancestor negotiation recently introduced in "git
-   push" code path.
-
- * "git pull" had various corner cases that were not well thought out
-   around its --rebase backend, e.g. "git pull --ff-only" did not stop
-   but went ahead and rebased when the history on other side is not a
-   descendant of our history.  The series tries to fix them up.

-   merge machinery when the three-way merge can be trivially resolved
-   without the content level merge.  This fixes a regression caused by
-   recent "-3way first and fall back to direct application" change.
-
- * The code that optionally creates the *.rev reverse index file has
-   been optimized to avoid needless computation when it is not writing
-   the file out.
-
- * "git range-diff -I... <range> <range>" segfaulted, which has been

-   has updated to save the terminal state before, and restore it
-   after, it spawns an editor.
-   (merge 3d411afabc cm/save-restore-terminal later to maint).
-
- * "git cat-file --batch" with the "--batch-all-objects" option is

-   (merge 4ef91a2d79 ab/fix-commit-error-message-upon-unwritable-object-store later to maint).
-
- * Recent sparse-index addition, namely any use of index_name_pos(),
-   can expand sparse index entries and breaks any code that walks
-   cache-tree or existing index entries.  One such instance of such a
-   breakage has been corrected.
-
- * The xxdiff difftool backend can exit with status 128, which the
-   difftool-helper that launches the backend takes as a significant
-   failure, when it is not significant at all.  Work it around.
-   (merge 571f4348dd da/mergetools-special-case-xxdiff-exit-128 later to maint).
-
- * Improve test framework around unwritable directories.
-   (merge 5d22e18965 ab/test-cleanly-recreate-trash-directory later to maint).
-
- * "git push" client talking to an HTTP server did not diagnose the
-   lack of the final status report from the other side correctly,
-   which has been corrected.
-   (merge c5c3486f38 jk/http-push-status-fix later to maint).
-
- * Update "git archive" documentation and give explicit mention on the
-   compression level for both zip and tar.gz format.
-   (merge c4b208c309 bs/archive-doc-compression-level later to maint).
-
- * Drop "git sparse-checkout" from the list of common commands.
-   (merge 6a9a50a8af sg/sparse-index-not-that-common-a-command later to maint).
-
- * "git branch -c/-m new old" was not described to copy config, which
-   has been corrected.
-   (merge 8252ec300e jc/branch-copy-doc later to maint).
-
- * Squelch over-eager warning message added during this cycle.
-
- * Fix long-standing shell syntax error in the completion script.
-   (merge 46b0585286 re/completion-fix-test-equality later to maint).
-
- * Teach "git commit-graph" command not to allow using replace objects
-   at all, as we do not use the commit-graph at runtime when we see
-   object replacement.
-   (merge 095d112f8c ab/ignore-replace-while-working-on-commit-graph later to maint).
-
- * "git pull --no-verify" did not affect the underlying "git merge".
-   (merge 47bfdfb3fd ar/fix-git-pull-no-verify later to maint).
-
- * One CI task based on Fedora image noticed a not-quite-kosher
-   construct recently, which has been corrected.
-
- * "git pull --ff-only" and "git pull --rebase --ff-only" should make
-   it a no-op to attempt pulling from a remote that is behind us, but
-   instead the command errored out by saying it was impossible to
-   fast-forward, which may technically be true, but not a useful thing
-   to diagnose as an error.  This has been corrected.
-   (merge 361cb52383 jc/fix-pull-ff-only-when-already-up-to-date later to maint).
-
- * The way Cygwin emulates a unix-domain socket, on top of which the
-   simple-ipc mechanism is implemented, can race with the program on
-   the other side that wants to use the socket, and briefly make it
-   appear as a regular file before lstat(2) starts reporting it as a
-   socket.  We now have a workaround on the side that connects to a
-   unix domain socket.
-
- * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.

-Git 2.35 Release Notes
-======================
-
-Updates since Git 2.34
-----------------------
-
-Backward compatibility warts
-
- * "_" is now treated as any other URL-valid characters in an URL when
-   matching the per-URL configuration variable names.
-
- * The color palette used by "git grep" has been updated to match that
-   of GNU grep.
-
-
-Note to those who build from the source
-
- * You may need to define NO_UNCOMPRESS2 Makefile macro if you build
-   with zlib older than 1.2.9.
-
- * If your compiler cannot grok C99, the build will fail.  See the
-   instruction at the beginning of git-compat-util.h if this happens
-   to you.
-
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * "git status --porcelain=v2" now show the number of stash entries
-   with --show-stash like the normal output does.
-
- * "git stash" learned the "--staged" option to stash away what has
-   been added to the index (and nothing else).
-
- * "git var GIT_DEFAULT_BRANCH" is a way to see what name is used for
-   the newly created branch if "git init" is run.
-
- * Various operating modes of "git reset" have been made to work
-   better with the sparse index.
-
- * "git submodule deinit" for a submodule whose .git metadata
-   directory is embedded in its working tree refused to work, until
-   the submodule gets converted to use the "absorbed" form where the
-   metadata directory is stored in superproject, and a gitfile at the
-   top-level of the working tree of the submodule points at it.  The
-   command is taught to convert such submodules to the absorbed form
-   as needed.
-
- * The completion script (in contrib/) learns that the "--date"
-   option of commands from the "git log" family takes "human" and
-   "auto" as valid values.
-
- * "Zealous diff3" style of merge conflict presentation has been added.
-
- * The "git log --format=%(describe)" placeholder has been extended to
-   allow passing selected command-line options to the underlying "git
-   describe" command.
-
- * "default" and "reset" have been added to our color palette.
-
- * The cryptographic signing using ssh keys can specify literal keys
-   for keytypes whose name do not begin with the "ssh-" prefix by
-   using the "key::" prefix mechanism (e.g. "key::ecdsa-sha2-nistp256").
-
- * "git fetch" without the "--update-head-ok" option ought to protect
-   a checked out branch from getting updated, to prevent the working
-   tree that checks it out to go out of sync.  The code was written
-   before the use of "git worktree" got widespread, and only checked
-   the branch that was checked out in the current worktree, which has
-   been updated.
-
- * "git name-rev" has been tweaked to give output that is shorter and
-   easier to understand.
-
- * "git apply" has been taught to ignore a message without a patch
-   with the "--allow-empty" option.  It also learned to honor the
-   "--quiet" option given from the command line.
-
- * The "init" and "set" subcommands in "git sparse-checkout" have been
-   unified for a better user experience and performance.
-
- * Many git commands that deal with working tree files try to remove a
-   directory that becomes empty (i.e. "git switch" from a branch that
-   has the directory to another branch that does not would attempt
-   remove all files in the directory and the directory itself).  This
-   drops users into an unfamiliar situation if the command was run in
-   a subdirectory that becomes subject to removal due to the command.
-   The commands have been taught to keep an empty directory if it is
-   the directory they were started in to avoid surprising users.
-
- * "git am" learns "--empty=(stop|drop|keep)" option to tweak what is
-   done to a piece of e-mail without a patch in it.
-
- * The default merge message prepared by "git merge" records the name
-   of the current branch; the name can be overridden with a new option
-   to allow users to pretend a merge is made on a different branch.
-
- * The way "git p4" shows file sizes in its output has been updated to
-   use human-readable units.
-
- * "git -c branch.autosetupmerge=inherit branch new old" makes "new"
-   to have the same upstream as the "old" branch, instead of marking
-   "old" itself as its upstream.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * The use of errno as a means to carry the nature of error in the ref
-   API implementation has been reworked and reduced.
-
- * Teach and encourage first-time contributors to this project to
-   state the base commit when they submit their topic.
-
- * The command line completion for "git send-email" options have been
-   tweaked to make it easier to keep it in sync with the command itself.
-
- * Ensure that the sparseness of the in-core index matches the
-   index.sparse configuration specified by the repository immediately
-   after the on-disk index file is read.
-
- * Code clean-up to eventually allow information on remotes defined
-   for an arbitrary repository to be read.
-
- * Build optimization.
-
- * Tighten code for testing pack-bitmap.
-
- * Weather balloon to break people with compilers that do not support
-   C99.
-
- * The "reftable" backend for the refs API, without integrating into
-   the refs subsystem, has been added.
-
- * More tests are marked as leak-free.
-
- * The test framework learns to list unsatisfied test prerequisites,
-   and optionally error out when prerequisites that are expected to be
-   satisfied are not.
-
- * The default setting for trace2 event nesting was too low to cause
-   test failures, which is worked around by bumping it up in the test
-   framework.
-
- * Drop support for TravisCI and update test workflows at GitHub.
-
- * Many tests that used to need GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_INITIAL_BRANCH_NAME
-   mechanism to force "git" to use 'master' as the default name for
-   the initial branch no longer need it; the use of the mechanism from
-   them have been removed.
-
- * Allow running our tests while disabling fsync.
-
- * Document the parameters given to the reflog entry iterator callback
-   functions.
-   (merge e6e94f34b2 jc/reflog-iterator-callback-doc later to maint).
-
- * The test helper for refs subsystem learned to write bogus and/or
-   nonexistent object name to refs to simulate error situations we
-   want to test Git in.
-
- * "diff --histogram" optimization.
-
- * Weather balloon to find compilers that do not grok variable
-   declaration in the for() loop.
-
- * diff and blame commands have been taught to work better with sparse
-   index.
-
- * The chainlint test script linter in the test suite has been updated.
-
- * The DEVELOPER=yes build uses -std=gnu99 now.
-
- * "git format-patch" uses a single rev_info instance and then exits.
-   Mark the structure with UNLEAK() macro to squelch leak sanitizer.
-
- * New interface into the tmp-objdir API to help in-core use of the
-   quarantine feature.
-
- * Broken &&-chains in the test scripts have been corrected.
-
- * The RCS keyword substitution in "git p4" used to be done assuming
-   that the contents are UTF-8 text, which can trigger decoding
-   errors.  We now treat the contents as a bytestring for robustness
-   and correctness.
-
- * The conditions to choose different definitions of the FLEX_ARRAY
-   macro for vendor compilers has been simplified to make it easier to
-   maintain.
-
- * Correctness and performance update to "diff --color-moved" feature.
-
- * "git upload-pack" (the other side of "git fetch") used a 8kB buffer
-   but most of its payload came on 64kB "packets".  The buffer size
-   has been enlarged so that such a packet fits.
-
- * "git fetch" and "git pull" are now declared sparse-index clean.
-   Also "git ls-files" learns the "--sparse" option to help debugging.
-
- * Similar message templates have been consolidated so that
-   translators need to work on fewer number of messages.
-
-
-Fixes since v2.34
------------------
-
- * "git grep" looking in a blob that has non-UTF8 payload was
-   completely broken when linked with certain versions of PCREv2
-   library in the latest release.
-
- * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
-
- * "git pull" with any strategy when the other side is behind us
-   should succeed as it is a no-op, but doesn't.
-
- * An earlier change in 2.34.0 caused JGit application (that abused
-   GIT_EDITOR mechanism when invoking "git config") to get stuck with
-   a SIGTTOU signal; it has been reverted.
-
- * An earlier change that broke .gitignore matching has been reverted.
-
- * Things like "git -c branch.sort=bogus branch new HEAD", i.e. the
-   operation modes of the "git branch" command that do not need the
-   sort key information, no longer errors out by seeing a bogus sort
-   key.
-   (merge 98e7ab6d42 jc/fix-ref-sorting-parse later to maint).
-
- * The compatibility implementation for unsetenv(3) were written to
-   mimic ancient, non-POSIX, variant seen in an old glibc; it has been
-   changed to return an integer to match the more modern era.
-   (merge a38989bd5b jc/unsetenv-returns-an-int later to maint).
-
- * The clean/smudge conversion code path has been prepared to better
-   work on platforms where ulong is narrower than size_t.
-   (merge 596b5e77c9 mc/clean-smudge-with-llp64 later to maint).
-
- * Redact the path part of packfile URI that appears in the trace output.
-   (merge 0ba558ffb1 if/redact-packfile-uri later to maint).
-
- * CI has been taught to catch some Unicode directional formatting
-   sequence that can be used in certain mischief.
-   (merge 0e7696c64d js/ci-no-directional-formatting later to maint).
-
- * The "--date=format:<strftime>" gained a workaround for the lack of
-   system support for a non-local timezone to handle "%s" placeholder.
-   (merge 9b591b9403 jk/strbuf-addftime-seconds-since-epoch later to maint).
-
- * The "merge" subcommand of "git jump" (in contrib/) silently ignored
-   pathspec and other parameters.
-   (merge 67ba13e5a4 jk/jump-merge-with-pathspec later to maint).
-
- * The code to decode the length of packed object size has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge 34de5b8eac jt/pack-header-lshift-overflow later to maint).
-
- * The advice message given by "git pull" when the user hasn't made a
-   choice between merge and rebase still said that the merge is the
-   default, which no longer is the case.  This has been corrected.
-   (merge 71076d0edd ah/advice-pull-has-no-preference-between-rebase-and-merge later to maint).
-
- * "git fetch", when received a bad packfile, can fail with SIGPIPE.
-   This wasn't wrong per-se, but we now detect the situation and fail
-   in a more predictable way.
-   (merge 2a4aed42ec jk/fetch-pack-avoid-sigpipe-to-index-pack later to maint).
-
- * The function to cull a child process and determine the exit status
-   had two separate code paths for normal callers and callers in a
-   signal handler, and the latter did not yield correct value when the
-   child has caught a signal.  The handling of the exit status has
-   been unified for these two code paths.  An existing test with
-   flakiness has also been corrected.
-   (merge 5263e22cba jk/t7006-sigpipe-tests-fix later to maint).
-
- * When a non-existent program is given as the pager, we tried to
-   reuse an uninitialized child_process structure and crashed, which
-   has been fixed.
-   (merge f917f57f40 em/missing-pager later to maint).
-
- * The single-key-input mode in "git add -p" had some code to handle
-   keys that generate a sequence of input via ReadKey(), which did not
-   handle end-of-file correctly, which has been fixed.
-   (merge fc8a8126df cb/add-p-single-key-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase -x" added an unnecessary 'exec' instructions before
-   'noop', which has been corrected.
-   (merge cc9dcdee61 en/rebase-x-fix later to maint).
-
- * When the "git push" command is killed while the receiving end is
-   trying to report what happened to the ref update proposals, the
-   latter used to die, due to SIGPIPE.  The code now ignores SIGPIPE
-   to increase our chances to run the post-receive hook after it
-   happens.
-   (merge d34182b9e3 rj/receive-pack-avoid-sigpipe-during-status-reporting later to maint).
-
- * "git worktree add" showed "Preparing worktree" message to the
-   standard output stream, but when it failed, the message from die()
-   went to the standard error stream.  Depending on the order the
-   stdio streams are flushed at the program end, this resulted in
-   confusing output.  It has been corrected by sending all the chatty
-   messages to the standard error stream.
-   (merge b50252484f es/worktree-chatty-to-stderr later to maint).
-
- * Coding guideline document has been updated to clarify what goes to
-   standard error in our system.
-   (merge e258eb4800 es/doc-stdout-vs-stderr later to maint).
-
- * The sparse-index/sparse-checkout feature had a bug in its use of
-   the matching code to determine which path is in or outside the
-   sparse checkout patterns.
-   (merge 8c5de0d265 ds/sparse-deep-pattern-checkout-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase -x" by mistake started exporting the GIT_DIR and
-   GIT_WORK_TREE environment variables when the command was rewritten
-   in C, which has been corrected.
-   (merge 434e0636db en/rebase-x-wo-git-dir-env later to maint).
-
- * When "git log" implicitly enabled the "decoration" processing
-   without being explicitly asked with "--decorate" option, it failed
-   to read and honor the settings given by the "--decorate-refs"
-   option.
-
- * "git fetch --set-upstream" did not check if there is a current
-   branch, leading to a segfault when it is run on a detached HEAD,
-   which has been corrected.
-   (merge 17baeaf82d ab/fetch-set-upstream-while-detached later to maint).
-
- * Among some code paths that ask an yes/no question, only one place
-   gave a prompt that looked different from the others, which has been
-   updated to match what the others create.
-   (merge 0fc8ed154c km/help-prompt-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git log --invert-grep --author=<name>" used to exclude commits
-   written by the given author, but now "--invert-grep" only affects
-   the matches made by the "--grep=<pattern>" option.
-   (merge 794c000267 rs/log-invert-grep-with-headers later to maint).
-
- * "git grep --perl-regexp" failed to match UTF-8 characters with
-   wildcard when the pattern consists only of ASCII letters, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge 32e3e8bc55 rs/pcre2-utf later to maint).
-
- * Certain sparse-checkout patterns that are valid in non-cone mode
-   led to segfault in cone mode, which has been corrected.
-
- * Use of certain "git rev-list" options with "git fast-export"
-   created nonsense results (the worst two of which being "--reverse"
-   and "--invert-grep --grep=<foo>").  The use of "--first-parent" is
-   made to behave a bit more sensible than before.
-   (merge 726a228dfb ws/fast-export-with-revision-options later to maint).
-
- * Perf tests were run with end-user's shell, but it has been
-   corrected to use the shell specified by $TEST_SHELL_PATH.
-   (merge 9ccab75608 ja/perf-use-specified-shell later to maint).
-
- * Fix dependency rules to generate hook-list.h header file.
-   (merge d3fd1a6667 ab/makefile-hook-list-dependency-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git stash" by default triggers its "push" action, but its
-   implementation also made "git stash -h" to show short help only for
-   "git stash push", which has been corrected.
-   (merge ca7990cea5 ab/do-not-limit-stash-help-to-push later to maint).
-
- * "git apply --3way" bypasses the attempt to do a three-way
-   application in more cases to address the regression caused by the
-   recent change to use direct application as a fallback.
-   (merge 34d607032c jz/apply-3-corner-cases later to maint).
-
- * Fix performance-releated bug in "git subtree" (in contrib/).
-   (merge 3ce8888fb4 jl/subtree-check-parents-argument-passing-fix later to maint).
-
- * Extend the guidance to choose the base commit to build your work
-   on, and hint/nudge contributors to read others' changes.
-   (merge fdfae830f8 jc/doc-submitting-patches-choice-of-base later to maint).
-
- * A corner case bug in the ort merge strategy has been corrected.
-   (merge d30126c20d en/merge-ort-renorm-with-rename-delete-conflict-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git stash apply" forgot to attempt restoring untracked files when
-   it failed to restore changes to tracked ones.
-   (merge 71cade5a0b en/stash-df-fix later to maint).
-
- * Calling dynamically loaded functions on Windows has been corrected.

-
- * Some lockfile code called free() in signal-death code path, which
-   has been corrected.
