files (which is an indication of an earlier aborted operation).

The reflog entries left by "git rebase" and "git rebase -i" were
inconsistent (the interactive one gave an abbreviated object name).

rebase -i: use full onto sha1 in reflog
When the user exports a non-default IFS without HT, scripts that
rely on being able to parse "ls-files -s | while read a b c..."
start to fail. Protect them from such a misconfiguration.

When "git push" triggered the automatic gc on the receiving end, a
message from "git prune" that said it was removing cruft leaked to
the standard output, breaking the communication protocol.
* bc/receive-pack-stdout-protection:
receive-pack: do not leak output from auto-gc to standard output
t/t5400: demonstrate breakage caused by informational message from prune
"git diff" had a confusion between taking data from a path in the
working tree and taking data from an object that happens to have
name 0{40} recorded in a tree.
* jk/maint-null-in-trees:
fsck: detect null sha1 in tree entries
do not write null sha1s to on-disk index
diff: do not use null sha1 as a sentinel value
"git send-email" did not unquote encoded words that appear on the
header correctly, and lost "_" from strings.
* tr/maint-send-email-2047:
send-email: improve RFC2047 quote parsing
When the user gives an argument that can be taken as both a
revision name and a pathname without disambiguating with "--", we
used to give a help message "Use '--' to separate". The message
has been clarified to show where that '--' goes on the command
line.

"gitweb" when used with PATH_INFO failed to notice directories with
SP (and other characters that need URL-style quoting) in them.
* js/gitweb-path-info-unquote:
gitweb: URL-decode $my_url/$my_uri when stripping PATH_INFO
Output from "git branch -v" contains "(no branch)" that could be
localized, but the code to align it along with the names of branches
were counting in bytes, not in display columns.
* nd/branch-v-alignment:
branch -v: align even when branch names are in UTF-8
Pushing to smart HTTP server with recent Git fails without having
the username in the URL to force authentication, if the server is
configured to allow GET anonymously, while requiring authentication
for POST.
* jk/maint-http-half-auth-push:
http: prompt for credentials on failed POST
http: factor out http error code handling
t: test http access to "half-auth" repositories
t: test basic smart-http authentication

t/lib-httpd: only route auth/dumb to dumb repos
t5550: factor out http auth setup
t5550: put auth-required repo in auth/dumb
The synopsis said "checkout [-B branch]" to make it clear the branch
name is a parameter to the option, but the heading for the option
description was "-B::", not "-B branch::", making the documentation
misleading. There may be room in documentation pages of other
commands for similar improvements.
* jc/maint-doc-checkout-b-always-takes-branch-name:
doc: "git checkout -b/-B/--orphan" always takes a branch name
"git apply -p0" did not parse pathnames on "diff --git" line
correctly. This caused patches that had pathnames in no other
places to be mistakenly rejected (most notably, binary patch that
does not rename nor change mode). Textual patches, renames or
mode changes have preimage and postimage pathnames in different
places in a form that can be parsed unambiguously and did not suffer
from this problem.
* jc/apply-binary-p0:
apply: compute patch->def_name correctly under -p0
"git log .." errored out saying it is both rev range and a path when
there is no disambiguating "--" is on the command line. Update the
command line parser to interpret ".." as a path in such a case.

When looking for $HOME/.gitconfig etc., it is OK if we cannot read
them because they do not exist, but we did not diagnose existing
files that we cannot read.

option.

Teach "git commit" and "git commit-tree" the "we are told to use
utf-8 in log message, but this does not look like utf-8---attempt to
pass it through convert-from-latin1-to-utf8 and see if it makes
sense" heuristics "git mailinfo" already uses.

Fix "git p4" when "--use-client-spec" and "--detect-branches" are
used together (the command used to misdetect branches).

"git submodule update --force" used to leave the working tree of the
submodule intact when there were local changes. It is more intiutive
to make "--force" a sign to run "checkout -f" to overwrite them.
* sz/submodule-force-update:
Make 'git submodule update --force' always check out submodules.
"git stash" internally used "git merge-recursive" backend, which did
not trigger "rerere" upon conflicts unlike other mergy operations.

Allow an external command to tell git-daemon to decline service

"git cherry-pick" by default stops when it sees a commit without any

silently proceed.

"git foo" errored out with "Not a directory" when the user had a non

The exit status code from "git config" was way overspecified while
being incorrect. Update the implementation to give the documented

"all other errors".
* jc/maint-config-exit-status:
config: "git config baa" should exit with status 1
Some capabilities were asked by fetch-pack even when upload-pack did
not advertise that they are available. Fix fetch-pack not to do so.
