Here are the topics that have been cooking in my tree. Commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next' (being in 'next' is a sign that a topic is stable enough to be used and are candidate to be in a future release). Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'seen', and aren't considered "accepted" at all and may be annotated with an URL to a message that raises issues but they are no means exhaustive. A topic without enough support may be discarded after a long period of no activity (of course they can be resubmit when new interests arise). Copies of the source code to Git live in many repositories, and the following is a list of the ones I push into or their mirrors. Some repositories have only a subset of branches. With maint, master, next, seen, todo: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/ git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git/ https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git/ https://github.com/git/git/ https://gitlab.com/git-scm/git/ With all the integration branches and topics broken out: https://github.com/gitster/git/ Even though the preformatted documentation in HTML and man format are not sources, they are published in these repositories for convenience (replace "htmldocs" with "manpages" for the manual pages): git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-htmldocs.git/ https://github.com/gitster/git-htmldocs.git/ Release tarballs are available at: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ -------------------------------------------------- [Graduated to 'master'] * bc/http-push-auth-netrc-fix (2025-02-24) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-26 at c2b83ec2e7) + http: allow using netrc for WebDAV-based HTTP protocol The netrc support (via the cURL library) for the HTTP transport has been re-enabled. source: <20250223015331.588161-2-sandals@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> * ek/mingw-rename-symlink (2025-02-21) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-24 at 8a9f3a5cdc) + compat/mingw: rename the symlink, not the target Symlink renaming fix. source: <pull.1864.git.1740139296483.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx> * jc/3.0-branches-remotes-update (2025-02-25) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-26 at 76db3e05d5) + BreakingChanges: clarify branches/ and remotes/ Removal of ".git/branches" and ".git/remotes" support in the BreakingChanges document has been further clarified. source: <xmqqcyf5io61.fsf@gitster.g> * jk/check-mailmap-wo-name-fix (2025-02-21) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-25 at d6d4e05ad1) + mailmap: fix check-mailmap with full mailmap line "git check-mailmap" segfault fix. source: <20250221-jk-fix-sendemail-mailinfo-v2-1-9aca7dc05dbb@xxxxxxxxx> * kn/ref-migrate-skip-reflog (2025-02-21) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-25 at c402e09d08) + builtin/refs: add '--no-reflog' flag to drop reflogs "git refs migrate" can optionally be told not to migrate the reflog. source: <20250221100423.91075-1-karthik.188@xxxxxxxxx> * pw/rebase-i-ff-empty-commit (2025-02-11) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-25 at 63db268d47) + rebase -i: reword empty commit after fast-forward "git rebase -i" failed to allow rewording an empty commit that has been fast-forwarded. source: <pull.1860.v2.git.1739289549299.gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx> * rs/clear-commit-marks-optim (2025-02-24) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-26 at 1773f2a2ff) + commit: avoid parent list buildup in clear_commit_marks_many() A micro-optimization. source: <2bd2d71f-0ee6-405f-bec8-368406ca53c8@xxxxxx> * ua/os-version-capability (2025-02-19) 6 commits (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-24 at 89ad48db14) + agent: advertise OS name via agent capability + t5701: add setup test to remove side-effect dependency + version: extend get_uname_info() to hide system details + version: refactor get_uname_info() + version: refactor redact_non_printables() + version: replace manual ASCII checks with isprint() for clarity The value of "uname -s" is by default sent over the wire as a part of the "version" capability. source: <20250215155130.1756934-1-usmanakinyemi202@xxxxxxxxx> -------------------------------------------------- [New Topics] * lo/doc-merge-submodule-update (2025-02-25) 1 commit (merged to 'next' on 2025-02-27 at 8086c4ca60) + merge-strategies.adoc: detail submodule merge What happens to submodules during merge has been documented in a bit more detail.
