Git v2.44 Release Notes (draft)
===============================
Backward Compatibility Notes
* "git chekcout -B <branch>" used to allow switching to a branch that
is in use on another worktree, but this was by mistake. The users
need to use "--ignore-other-worktrees" option.
UI, Workflows & Features
* "git add" and "git stash" learned to support the ":(attr:...)"
magic pathspec.
* "git rebase --autosquash" is now enabled for non-interactive rebase,
but it is still incompatible with the apply backend.
* Introduce "git replay", a tool meant on the server side without
working tree to recreate a history.
* "git merge-file" learned to take the "--diff-algorithm" option to
use algorithm different from the default "myers" diff.
* Command line completion (in contrib/) learned to complete path
arguments to the "add/set" subcommands of "git sparse-checkout"
better.
* "git checkout -B <branch> [<start-point>]" allowed a branch that is
in use in another worktree to be updated and checked out, which
might be a bit unexpected. The rule has been tightened, which is a
breaking change. "--ignore-other-worktrees" option is required to
unbreak you, if you are used to the current behaviour that "-B"
overrides the safety.
* The builtin_objectmode attribute is populated for each path
without adding anything in .gitattributes files, which would be
useful in magic pathspec, e.g., ":(attr:builtin_objectmode=100755)"
to limit to executables.
* "git fetch" learned to pay attention to "fetch.all" configuration
variable, which pretends as if "--all" was passed from the command
line when no remote parameter was given.
* In addition to (rather cryptic) Security Identifiers, show username
and domain in the error message when we barf on mismatch between
the Git directory and the current user on Windows.
* The error message given when "git branch -d branch" fails due to
commits unique to the branch has been split into an error and a new
conditional advice message.
* When given an existing but unreadable file as a configuration file,
gitweb behaved as if the file did not exist at all, but now it
errors out. This is a change that may break backward compatibility.
* When $HOME/.gitignore is missing but XDG config file available, we
should write into the latter, not former. "git gc" and "git
maintenance" wrote into a wrong "global config" file, which have
been corrected.
* Define "special ref" as a very narrow set that consists of
FETCH_HEAD and MERGE_HEAD, and clarify everything else that used to
be classified as such are actually just pseudorefs.
* All conditional "advice" messages show how to turn them off, which
becomes repetitive. Setting advice.* configuration explicitly on
now omits the instruction part.
* The "disable repository discovery of a bare repository" check,
triggered by setting safe.bareRepository configuration variable to
'explicit', has been loosened to exclude the ".git/" directory inside
a non-bare repository from the check. So you can do "cd .git &&
git cmd" to run a Git command that works on a bare repository without
explicitly specifying $GIT_DIR now.
* The completion script (in contrib/) learned more options that can
be used with "git log".
* The labels on conflict markers for the common ancestor, our version,
and the other version are available to custom 3-way merge driver
via %S, %X, and %Y placeholders.
* The write codepath for the reftable data learned to honor
core.fsync configuration.
* The "--fsck-objects" option of "git index-pack" now can take the
optional parameter to tweak severity of different fsck errors.
* The wincred credential backend has been taught to support oauth
refresh token the same way as credential-cache and
credential-libsecret backends.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* Process to add some form of low-level unit tests has started.
* Add support for GitLab CI.
* "git for-each-ref --no-sort" still sorted the refs alphabetically
which paid non-trivial cost. It has been redefined to show output
in an unspecified order, to allow certain optimizations to take
advantage of.
* Simplify API implementation to delete references by eliminating
duplication.
* Subject approxidate() and show_date() machinery to OSS-Fuzz.
* A new helper to let us pretend that we called lstat() when we know
our cache_entry is up-to-date via fsmonitor.
* The optimization based on fsmonitor in the "diff --cached"
codepath is resurrected with the "fake-lstat" introduced earlier.
* Test balloon to use C99 "bool" type from <stdbool.h> has been
added.
* "git clone" has been prepared to allow cloning a repository with
non-default hash function into a repository that uses the reftable
backend.
* Streaming spans of packfile data used to be done only from a
single, primary, pack in a repository with multiple packfiles. It
has been extended to allow reuse from other packfiles, too.
* Comment updates to help developers not to attempt to modify
messages from plumbing commands that must stay constant.
It might make sense to reassess the plumbing needs every few years,
but that should be done as a separate effort.
* Move test-ctype helper to the unit-test framework.
* Instead of manually creating refs/ hierarchy on disk upon a
creation of a secondary worktree, which is only usable via the
files backend, use the refs API to populate it.
* CI for GitLab learned to drive macOS jobs.
* A few tests to "git commit -o <pathspec>" and "git commit -i
<pathspec>" has been added.
* Tests on ref API are moved around to prepare for reftable.
* The Makefile often had to say "-L$(path) -R$(path)" that repeats
the path to the same library directory for link time and runtime.
A Makefile template is used to reduce such repetition.
* The priority queue test has been migrated to the unit testing
framework.
Fixes since v2.43
-----------------
* The way CI testing used "prove" could lead to running the test
suite twice needlessly, which has been corrected.
* Update ref-related tests.
* "git format-patch --encode-email-headers" ignored the option when
preparing the cover letter, which has been corrected.
* Newer versions of Getopt::Long started giving warnings against our
(ab)use of it in "git send-email". Bump the minimum version
requirement for Perl to 5.8.1 (from September 2002) to allow
simplifying our implementation.
* Earlier we stopped relying on commit-graph that (still) records
information about commits that are lost from the object store,
which has negative performance implications. The default has been
flipped to disable this pessimization.
* Stale URLs have been updated to their current counterparts (or
archive.org) and HTTP links are replaced with working HTTPS links.
* trace2 streams used to record the URLs that potentially embed
authentication material, which has been corrected.
* The sample pre-commit hook that tries to catch introduction of new
paths that use potentially non-portable characters did not notice
an existing path getting renamed to such a problematic path, when
rename detection was enabled.
* The command line parser for the "log" family of commands was too
loose when parsing certain numbers, e.g., silently ignoring the
extra 'q' in "git log -n 1q" without complaining, which has been
tightened up.
* "git $cmd --end-of-options --rev -- --path" for some $cmd failed
to interpret "--rev" as a rev, and "--path" as a path. This was
fixed for many programs like "reset" and "checkout".
* "git bisect reset" has been taught to clean up state files and refs
even when BISECT_START file is gone.
* Some codepaths did not correctly parse configuration variables
specified with valueless "true", which has been corrected.
* Code clean-up for sanity checking of command line options for "git
show-ref".
* The code to parse the From e-mail header has been updated to avoid
recursion.
* "git fetch --atomic" issued an unnecessary empty error message,
which has been corrected.
* Command line completion script (in contrib/) learned to work better
with the reftable backend.
* "git status" is taught to show both the branch being bisected and
being rebased when both are in effect at the same time.
* "git archive --list extra garbage" silently ignored excess command
line parameters, which has been corrected.
* "git sparse-checkout set" added default patterns even when the
patterns are being fed from the standard input, which has been
corrected.
* "git sparse-checkout (add|set) --[no-]cone --end-of-options" did
not handle "--end-of-options" correctly after a recent update.
* Unlike other environment variables that took the usual
true/false/yes/no as well as 0/1, GIT_FLUSH only understood 0/1,
which has been corrected.
* Clearing in-core repository (happens during e.g., "git fetch
--recurse-submodules" with commit graph enabled) made in-core
commit object in an inconsistent state by discarding the necessary
data from commit-graph too early, which has been corrected.
* Update to a new feature recently added, "git show-ref --exists".
(merge 0aabeaa562 tc/show-ref-exists-fix later to maint).
* oss-fuzz tests are built and run in CI.
(merge c4a9cf1df3 js/oss-fuzz-build-in-ci later to maint).
* Rename detection logic ignored the final line of a file if it is an
incomplete line.
(merge 1c5bc6971e en/diffcore-delta-final-line-fix later to maint).
* GitHub CI update.
(merge 0188b2c8e0 pb/ci-github-skip-logs-for-broken-tests later to maint).
* "git diff --no-rename A B" did not disable rename detection but did
not trigger an error from the command line parser.
(merge 457f96252f rs/parse-options-with-keep-unknown-abbrev-fix later to maint).
* "git archive --remote=<remote>" learned to talk over the smart
http (aka stateless) transport.
(merge 176cd68634 jx/remote-archive-over-smart-http later to maint).
* Fetching via protocol v0 over Smart HTTP transport sometimes failed
to correctly auto-follow tags.
(merge fba732c462 jk/fetch-auto-tag-following-fix later to maint).
* The documentation for the --exclude-per-directory option marked it
as deprecated, which confused readers into thinking there may be a
plan to remove it in the future, which was not our intention.
(merge 0009542cab jc/ls-files-doc-update later to maint).
* "git diff --no-index file1 file2" segfaulted while invoking the
external diff driver, which has been corrected.
(merge 85a9a63c92 jk/diff-external-with-no-index later to maint).
* Rewrite //-comments to /* comments */ in files whose comments
prevalently use the latter.
(merge de65079d7b jc/comment-style-fixes later to maint).
* Cirrus CI jobs started breaking because we specified version of
FreeBSD that is no longer available, which has been corrected.
(merge 81fffb66d3 cb/use-freebsd-13-2-at-cirrus-ci later to maint).
* A caller called index_file_exists() that takes a string expressed
as <ptr, length> with a wrong length, which has been corrected.
(merge 156e28b36d jh/sparse-index-expand-to-path-fix later to maint).
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
(merge 5aea3955bc rj/clarify-branch-doc-m later to maint).
