Git v2.45 Release Notes
=======================

Backward Compatibility Notes

UI, Workflows & Features

* Integrate the reftable code into the refs framework as a backend.
With "git init --ref-format=reftable", hopefully it would be a lot
more efficient to manage a repository with many references.

* "git checkout -p" and friends learned that that "@" is a synonym
for "HEAD".

* Variants of vimdiff learned to honor mergetool.<variant>.layout
settings.

* "git reflog" learned a "list" subcommand that enumerates known reflogs.

* When a merge conflicted at a submodule, merge-ort backend used to
unconditionally give a lengthy message to suggest how to resolve
it. Now the message can be squelched as an advice message.

* "git for-each-ref" learned "--include-root-refs" option to show
even the stuff outside the 'refs/' hierarchy.

* "git rev-list --missing=print" has learned to optionally take
"--allow-missing-tips", which allows the objects at the starting
points to be missing.

* "git merge-tree" has learned that the three trees involved in the
3-way merge only need to be trees, not necessarily commits.

* "git log --merge" learned to pay attention to CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and
other kinds of *_HEAD pseudorefs.

* Platform specific tweaks for OS/390 has been added to
config.mak.uname.

* Users with safe.bareRepository=explicit can still work from within
$GIT_DIR of a seconary worktree (which resides at .git/worktrees/$name/)
of the primary worktree without explicitly specifying the $GIT_DIR
environment variable or the --git-dir=<path> option.

* The output format for dates "iso-strict" has been tweaked to show
a time in the Zulu timezone with "Z" suffix, instead of "+00:00".

* "git diff" and friends learned two extra configuration variables,
diff.srcPrefix and diff.dstPrefix.

* The status.showUntrackedFiles configuration variable had a name
that tempts users to set a Boolean value expressed in our usual
"false", "off", and "0", but it only took "no". This has been
corrected so "true" and its synonyms are taken as "normal", while
"false" and its synonyms are taken as "no".

* Remove an ancient and not well maintained Hg-to-git migration
script from contrib/.

* Hints that suggest what to do after resolving conflicts can now be
squelched by disabling advice.mergeConflict.

* Allow git-cherry-pick(1) to automatically drop redundant commits via
a new `--empty` option, similar to the `--empty` options for
git-rebase(1) and git-am(1). Includes a soft deprecation of
`--keep-redundant-commits` as well as some related docs changes and
sequencer code cleanup.

* "git config" learned "--comment=<message>" option to leave a
comment immediately after the "variable = value" on the same line
in the configuration file.

* core.commentChar used to be limited to a single byte, but has been
updated to allow an arbitrary multi-byte sequence.

* "git add -p" and other "interactive hunk selection" UI has learned to
skip showing the hunk immediately after it has already been shown, and
an additional action to explicitly ask to reshow the current hunk.

* "git pack-refs" learned the "--auto" option, which defers the decision of
whether and how to pack to the ref backend. This is used by the reftable
backend to avoid repacking of an already-optimal ref database. The new mode
is triggered from "git gc --auto".

* "git add -u <pathspec>" and "git commit [-i] <pathspec>" did not
diagnose a pathspec element that did not match any files in certain
situations, unlike "git add <pathspec>" did.

* The userdiff patterns for C# has been updated.

* Git writes a "waiting for your editor" message on an incomplete
line after launching an editor, and then append another error
message on the same line if the editor errors out. It now clears
the "waiting for..." line before giving the error message.

* The filename used for rejected hunks "git apply --reject" creates
was limited to PATH_MAX, which has been lifted.

* When "git bisect" reports the commit it determined to be the
culprit, we used to show it in a format that does not honor common
UI tweaks, like log.date and log.decorate. The code has been
taught to use "git show" to follow more customizations.


Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.

* The code to iterate over refs with the reftable backend has seen
some optimization.

* More tests that are marked as "ref-files only" have been updated to
improve test coverage of reftable backend.

* Some parts of command line completion script (in contrib/) have
been micro-optimized.

* The way placeholders are to be marked-up in documentation have been
specified; use "_<placeholder>_" to typeset the word inside a pair
of <angle-brackets> emphasized.

* "git --no-lazy-fetch cmd" allows to run "cmd" while disabling lazy
fetching of objects from the promisor remote, which may be handy
for debugging.

* The implementation in "git clean" that makes "-n" and "-i" ignore
clean.requireForce has been simplified, together with the
documentation.

* Uses of xwrite() helper have been audited and updated for better
error checking and simpler code.

* Some trace2 events that lacked def_param have learned to show it,
enriching the output.

* The parse-options code that deals with abbreviated long option
names have been cleaned up.

* The code in reftable backend that creates new table files works
better with the tempfile framework to avoid leaving cruft after a
failure.

* The reftable code has its own custom binary search function whose
comparison callback has an unusual interface, which caused the
binary search to degenerate into a linear search, which has been
corrected.

* The code to iterate over reflogs in the reftable has been optimized
to reduce memory allocation and deallocation.

* Work to support a repository that work with both SHA-1 and SHA-256
hash algorithms has started.

* A new fuzz target that exercises config parsing code has been
added.

* Fix the way recently added tests interpolate variables defined
outside them, and document the best practice to help future
developers.

* Introduce an experimental protocol for contributors to propose the
topic description to be used in the "What's cooking" report, the
merge commit message for the topic, and in the release notes and
document it in the SubmittingPatches document.

* The t/README file now gives a hint on running individual tests in
the "t/" directory with "make t<num>-*.sh t<num>-*.sh".
(merge 8d383806fc pb/test-scripts-are-build-targets later to maint).

* The "hint:" messages given by the advice mechanism, when given a
message with a blank line, left a line with trailing whitespace,
which has been cleansed.

* Documentation rules has been explicitly described how to mark-up
literal parts and a few manual pages have been updated as examples.

* The .editorconfig file has been taught that a Makefile uses HT
indentation.

* t-prio-queue test has been cleaned up by using C99 compound
literals; this is meant to also serve as a weather-balloon to smoke
out folks with compilers who have trouble compiling code that uses
the feature.

* Windows binary used to decide the use of unix-domain socket at
build time, but it learned to make the decision at runtime instead.

* The "shared repository" test in the t0610 reftable test failed
under restrictive umask setting (e.g. 007), which has been
corrected.

* Document and apply workaround for a buggy version of dash that
mishandles "local var=val" construct.

* The codepaths that reach date_mode_from_type() have been updated to
pass "struct date_mode" by value to make them thread safe.

* The strategy to compact multiple tables of reftables after many
operations accumulate many entries has been improved to avoid
accumulating too many tables uncollected.

* The code to iterate over reftable blocks has seen some optimization
to reduce memory allocation and deallocation.

* The way "git fast-import" handles paths described in its input has
been tightened up and more clearly documented.

* The cvsimport tests required that the platform understands
traditional timezone notations like CST6CDT, which has been
updated to work on those systems as long as they understand
POSIX notation with explicit tz transition dates.

* The code to format trailers have been cleaned up.


Fixes since v2.44
-----------------

* "git apply" on a filesystem without filemode support have learned
to take a hint from what is in the index for the path, even when
not working with the "--index" or "--cached" option, when checking
the executable bit match what is required by the preimage in the
patch.
(merge 45b625142d cp/apply-core-filemode later to maint).

* "git column" has been taught to reject negative padding value, as
it would lead to nonsense behaviour including division by zero.
(merge 76fb807faa kh/column-reject-negative-padding later to maint).

* "git am --help" now tells readers what actions are available in
"git am --whitespace=<action>", in addition to saying that the
option is passed through to the underlying "git apply".
(merge a171dac734 jc/am-whitespace-doc later to maint).

* "git tag --column" failed to check the exit status of its "git
column" invocation, which has been corrected.
(merge 92e66478fc rj/tag-column-fix later to maint).

* Credential helper based on libsecret (in contrib/) has been updated
to handle an empty password correctly.
(merge 8f1f2023b7 mh/libsecret-empty-password-fix later to maint).

* "git difftool --dir-diff" learned to honor the "--trust-exit-code"
option; it used to always exit with 0 and signalled success.
(merge eb84c8b6ce ps/difftool-dir-diff-exit-code later to maint).

* The code incorrectly attempted to use textconv cache when asked,
even when we are not running in a repository, which has been
corrected.
(merge affe355fe7 jk/textconv-cache-outside-repo-fix later to maint).

* Remove an empty file that shouldn't have been added in the first
place.
(merge 4f66942215 js/remove-cruft-files later to maint).

* The logic to access reflog entries by date and number had ugly
corner cases at the boundaries, which have been cleaned up.
(merge 5edd126720 jk/reflog-special-cases-fix later to maint).

* An error message from "git upload-pack", which responds to "git
fetch" requests, had a trailing NUL in it, which has been
corrected.
(merge 3f4c7a0805 sg/upload-pack-error-message-fix later to maint).

* Clarify wording in the CodingGuidelines that requires <git-compat-utilh>
to be the first header file.
(merge 4e89f0e07c jc/doc-compat-util later to maint).

* "git commit -v --cleanup=scissors" used to add the scissors line
twice in the log message buffer, which has been corrected.
(merge e90cc075cc jt/commit-redundant-scissors-fix later to maint).

* A custom remote helper no longer cannot access the newly created
repository during "git clone", which is a regression in Git 2.44.
This has been corrected.
(merge 199f44cb2e ps/remote-helper-repo-initialization-fix later to maint).

* Various parts of upload-pack have been updated to bound the resource
consumption relative to the size of the repository to protect from
abusive clients.
(merge 6cd05e768b jk/upload-pack-bounded-resources later to maint).

* The upload-pack program, when talking over v2, accepted the
packfile-uris protocol extension from the client, even if it did
not advertise the capability, which has been corrected.
(merge a922bfa3b5 jk/upload-pack-v2-capability-cleanup later to maint).

* Make sure failure return from merge_bases_many() is properly caught.
(merge 25fd20eb44 js/merge-base-with-missing-commit later to maint).

* FSMonitor client code was confused when FSEvents were given in a
different case on a case-insensitive filesystem, which has been
corrected.
(merge 29c139ce78 jh/fsmonitor-icase-corner-case-fix later to maint).

* The "core.commentChar" configuration variable only allows an ASCII
character, which was not clearly documented, which has been
corrected.
(merge fb7c556f58 kh/doc-commentchar-is-a-byte later to maint).

* With release 2.44 we got rid of all uses of test_i18ngrep and there
is no in-flight topic that adds a new use of it. Make a call to
test_i18ngrep a hard failure, so that we can remove it at the end
of this release cycle.
(merge 381a83dfa3 jc/test-i18ngrep later to maint).

* The command line completion script (in contrib/) learned to
complete "git reflog" better.
(merge 1284f9cc11 rj/complete-reflog later to maint).

* The logic to complete the command line arguments to "git worktree"
subcommand (in contrib/) has been updated to correctly honor things
like "git -C dir" etc.
(merge 3574816d98 rj/complete-worktree-paths-fix later to maint).

* When git refuses to create a branch because the proposed branch
name is not a valid refname, an advice message is given to refer
the user to exact naming rules.
(merge 8fbd903e58 kh/branch-ref-syntax-advice later to maint).

* Code simplification by getting rid of code that sets an environment
variable that is no longer used.
(merge 72a8d3f027 pw/rebase-i-ignore-cherry-pick-help-environment later to maint).

* The code to find the effective end of log messages can fall into an
endless loop, which has been corrected.
(merge 2541cba2d6 fs/find-end-of-log-message-fix later to maint).

* Mark-up used in the documentation has been improved for
consistency.
(merge 45d5ed3e50 ja/doc-markup-fixes later to maint).

* The status.showUntrackedFiles configuration variable was
incorrectly documented to accept "false", which has been corrected.

* Leaks from "git restore" have been plugged.
(merge 2f64da0790 rj/restore-plug-leaks later to maint).

* "git bugreport --no-suffix" was not supported and instead
segfaulted, which has been corrected.
(merge b3b57c69da js/bugreport-no-suffix-fix later to maint).

* The documentation for "%(trailers[:options])" placeholder in the
"--pretty" option of commands in the "git log" family has been
updated.
(merge bff85a338c bl/doc-key-val-sep-fix later to maint).

* "git checkout --conflict=bad" reported a bad conflictStyle as if it
were given to a configuration variable; it has been corrected to
report that the command line option is bad.
(merge 5a99c1ac1a pw/checkout-conflict-errorfix later to maint).

* Code clean-up in the "git log" machinery that implements custom log
message formatting.
(merge 1c10b8e5b0 jk/pretty-subject-cleanup later to maint).

* "git config" corrupted literal HT characters written in the
configuration file as part of a value, which has been corrected.
(merge e6895c3f97 ds/config-internal-whitespace-fix later to maint).

* A unit test for reftable code tried to enumerate all files in a
directory after reftable operations and expected to see nothing but
the files it wanted to leave there, but was fooled by .nfs* cruft
files left, which has been corrected.
(merge 0068aa7946 ps/reftable-unit-test-nfs-workaround later to maint).

* The implementation and documentation of "object-format" option
exchange between the Git itself and its remote helpers did not
quite match, which has been corrected.

* The "--pretty=<shortHand>" option of the commands in the "git log"
family, defined as "[pretty] shortHand = <expansion>" should have
been looked up case insensitively, but was not, which has been
corrected.
(merge f999d5188b bl/pretty-shorthand-config-fix later to maint).

* "git apply" failed to extract the filename the patch applied to,
when the change was about an empty file created in or deleted from
a directory whose name ends with a SP, which has been corrected.
(merge 776ffd1a30 jc/apply-parse-diff-git-header-names-fix later to maint).

* Update a more recent tutorial doc.
(merge 95ab557b4b dg/myfirstobjectwalk-updates later to maint).

* The test script had an incomplete and ineffective attempt to avoid
clobbering the testing user's real crontab (and its equivalents),
which has been completed.
(merge 73cb87773b es/test-cron-safety later to maint).

* Use advice_if_enabled() API to rewrite a simple pattern to
call advise() after checking advice_enabled().
(merge 6412d01527 rj/use-adv-if-enabled later to maint).

* Another "set -u" fix for the bash prompt (in contrib/) script.
(merge d7805bc743 vs/complete-with-set-u-fix later to maint).

* "git checkout/switch --detach foo", after switching to the detached
HEAD state, gave the tracking information for the 'foo' branch,
which was pointless.

* "git apply" has been updated to lift the hardcoded pathname length
limit, which in turn allowed a mksnpath() function that is no
longer used.
(merge 708f7e0590 rs/apply-lift-path-length-limit later to maint).

* A file descriptor leak in an error codepath, used when "git apply
--reject" fails to create the *.rej file, has been corrected.
(merge 2b1f456adf rs/apply-reject-fd-leakfix later to maint).

* A config parser callback function fell through instead of returning
after recognising and processing a variable, wasting cycles, which
has been corrected.
(merge a816ccd642 ds/fetch-config-parse-microfix later to maint).

* Fix was added to work around a regression in libcURL 8.7.0 (which has
already been fixed in their tip of the tree).
(merge 92a209bf24 jk/libcurl-8.7-regression-workaround later to maint).

* The variable that holds the value read from the core.excludefile
configuration variable used to leak, which has been corrected.
(merge 0e0fefb29f jc/unleak-core-excludesfile later to maint).

* vreportf(), which is used by error() and friends, has been taught
to give the error message printf-format string when its vsnprintf()
call fails, instead of showing nothing useful to identify the
nature of the error.
(merge c63adab961 rs/usage-fallback-to-show-message-format later to maint).

* Adjust to an upcoming changes to GNU make that breaks our Makefiles.
(merge 227b8fd902 tb/make-indent-conditional-with-non-spaces later to maint).

* Git 2.44 introduced a regression that makes the updated code to
barf in repositories with multi-pack index written by older
versions of Git, which has been corrected.

* When .git/rr-cache/ rerere database gets corrupted or rerere is fed to
work on a file with conflicted hunks resolved incompletely, the rerere
machinery got confused and segfaulted, which has been corrected.
(merge 167395bb47 mr/rerere-crash-fix later to maint).

* The "receive-pack" program (which responds to "git push") was not
converted to run "git maintenance --auto" when other codepaths that
used to run "git gc --auto" were updated, which has been corrected.
(merge 7bf3057d9c ps/run-auto-maintenance-in-receive-pack later to maint).

* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
(merge f0e578c69c rs/use-xstrncmpz later to maint).

Highjacking the Git v2.45.0 announcement:
There are 4 test cases in t4216-log-bloom.sh, that do not pass on one
Mac here (they pass on another machine)

I haven't digged further, but here are some log files,
hopefully helpful to somebody.
