The top level documentation "git help git" still pointed at the

A bug, which caused "git p4" while running under verbose mode to
report paths that are omitted due to branch prefix incorrectly, has
been fixed; the command said "Ignoring file outside of prefix" for
paths that are _inside_.
* ao/p4-has-branch-prefix-fix:

One among four invocations of readlink(1) in our test suite has
been rewritten so that the test can run on systems without the
command (others are in valgrind test framework and t9802).
* ak/t7800-wo-readlink:
t7800: readlink may not be available
The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
bogus offset value to the caller. Use a more benign looking
+0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
of aborting.
* jk/tzoffset-fix:
local_tzoffset: detect errors from tm_to_time_t
t0006: test various date formats
t0006: rename test-date's "show" to "relative"
Some platform-specific code had non-ANSI strict declarations of C

Fix unnecessarily waste in the idiomatic use of ': ${VAR=default}'

Fix an unintended regression in v2.9 that breaks "clone --depth"
that recurses down to submodules by forcing the submodules to also
be cloned shallowly, which many server instances that host upstream
of the submodules are not prepared for.
* sb/clone-shallow-passthru:
clone: do not let --depth imply --shallow-submodules
Formats of the various data (and how to validate them) where we use

"git bisect" makes an internal call to "git diff-tree" when

"log --graph --format=" learned that "%>|(N)" specifies the width
relative to the terminal's left edge, not relative to the area to

Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with
the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK).
* em/newer-freebsd-shells-are-fine-with-returns:

"git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working
tree".
* lv/status-say-working-tree-not-directory:
Use "working tree" instead of "working directory" for git status
"git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape
hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to
use it regularly. "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead.
* et/add-chmod-x:

A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data
on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so.
* jk/avoid-unbounded-alloca:
tree-diff: avoid alloca for large allocations
The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those
who uses "set -u", which has been fixed.
* vs/prompt-avoid-unset-variable:
git-prompt.sh: Don't error on null ${ZSH,BASH}_VERSION, $short_sha
"git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch
creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the
reflog was truncated.
* sg/reflog-past-root:
reflog: continue walking the reflog past root commits
The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when
referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used.
* dn/gpg-doc:
Documentation: GPG capitalization
The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands,
configuration variables and environment variables are consistently
typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages.
* tr/doc-tt:
doc: change configuration variables format
doc: more consistency in environment variables format
doc: change environment variables format
doc: clearer rule about formatting literals
"git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited
by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire
file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file,
which has been fixed.
* rs/xdiff-hunk-with-func-line:
xdiff: fix merging of appended hunk with -W
grep: -W: don't extend context to trailing empty lines
t7810: add test for grep -W and trailing empty context lines
xdiff: don't trim common tail with -W
xdiff: -W: don't include common trailing empty lines in context
xdiff: ignore empty lines before added functions with -W
xdiff: handle appended chunks better with -W
xdiff: factor out match_func_rec()
t4051: rewrite, add more tests
"git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n"
option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the
bitmap index.
* jk/rev-list-count-with-bitmap:
rev-list: disable bitmaps when "-n" is used with listing objects
rev-list: "adjust" results of "--count --use-bitmap-index -n"
The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format
string. This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring
--no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to
a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as
"auto".
* et/pretty-format-c-auto:
format_commit_message: honor `color=auto` for `%C(auto)`
When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a
connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around
for a long time, wasting resources. The socket-level KEEPALIVE has
been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections.
* ew/daemon-socket-keepalive:
daemon: enable SO_KEEPALIVE for all sockets

The readlink(1) command is not available on all platforms (notably
not on AIX and HP-UX) and can be replaced in this test with the
"workaround"
ls -ld <name> | sed -e 's/.* -> //'
This is no universal readlink replacement but works in the
controlled test environment well enough.

As this developer has no access to MacOSX developer setups anymore,
Travis becomes the best bet to run performance tests on that OS.
However, on MacOSX /usr/bin/time is that good old BSD executable that
no Linux user cares about, as demonstrated by the perf-lib.sh's use
of GNU-ish extensions. And by the hard-coded path.
Let's just work around this issue by using gtime on MacOSX, the
Homebrew-provided GNU implementation onto which pretty much every
MacOSX power user falls back anyway.
To help other developers use Travis to run performance tests on
MacOSX, the .travis.yml file now sports a commented-out line that
installs GNU time via Homebrew.

When we want to know the local timezone offset at a given
timestamp, we compute it by asking for localtime() at the
given time, and comparing the offset to GMT at that time.
However, there's some juggling between time_t and "struct
tm" which happens, which involves calling our own
tm_to_time_t().
If that function returns an error (e.g., because it only
handles dates up to the year 2099), it returns "-1", which
we treat as a time_t, and is clearly bogus, leading to
bizarre timestamps (that seem to always adjust the time back
to (time_t)(uint32_t)-1, in the year 2106).
It's not a good idea for local_tzoffset() to simply die
here; it would make it hard to run "git log" on a repository
with funny timestamps. Instead, let's just treat such cases
as "zero offset".

We ended up testing some of these date formats throughout

The "show" tests are really only checking relative formats;
we should make that more clear.
This also frees up the "show" name to later check other
formats. We could later fold "relative" into a more generic
"show" command, but it's not worth it. Relative times are a
special case already because we have to munge the concept of
"now" in our tests.

In v2.9.0, we prematurely flipped the default to force cloning
submodules shallowly, when the superproject is getting cloned
shallowly. This is likely to fail when the upstream repositories
submodules are cloned from a repository that is not prepared to
serve histories that ends at a commit that is not at the tip of a
branch, and we know the world is not yet ready.
Use a safer default to clone the submodules fully, unless the user
tells us that she knows that the upstream repository of the
submodules are willing to cooperate with "--shallow-submodules"
option.

We often make sure an environment variable is set to
something, either set by the user (in which case we do not
molest it) or set it to our default value (otherwise), with
: ${VAR=default value}
i.e. running the no-op command ":" with ${VAR} as its
parameters (or the default value we supply), relying on that
":" is a no-op.
This pattern, even though it is no-op from correctness point
of view, still can be expensive if the existing value in VAR
has shell glob (because they will be expanded against
filesystem entities) and IFS whitespaces (because the value
need to be split into multiple parameters). Our invocation
of ":" command does not care if the parameter given to it is
after the value in VAR goes through these processing.
Enclosing the whole thing in double-quote, i.e.
: "${VAR=default value}"
avoids paying the unnecessary cost, so let's do so.
