Git v2.43 Release Notes
=======================
UI, Workflows & Features
* A message written in olden time prevented a branch from getting
checked out saying it is already checked out elsewhere, but these
days, we treat a branch that is being bisected or rebased just like
a branch that is checked out and protect it. Rephrase the message
to say that the branch is in use.
* Hourly and other schedule of "git maintenance" jobs are randomly
distributed now.
* "git cmd -h" learned to signal which options can be negated by
listing such options like "--[no-]opt".
* The way authentication related data other than passwords (e.g.
oath token and password expiration data) are stored in libsecret
keyrings has been rethought.
* Update two credential helpers to correctly match which credential
to erase; they dropped not the ones with stale password.
* Git GUI updates.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* "git check-attr" has been taught to work better with sparse-index.
Fixes since v2.42
-----------------
* Overly long label names used in the sequencer machinery are now
chopped to fit under filesystem limitation.
(merge ac300bda10 mp/rebase-label-length-limit later to maint).
* Scalar updates.
(merge f9a547d3a7 ds/scalar-updates later to maint).
* Tweak GitHub Actions CI so that pushing the same commit to multiple
branch tips at the same time will not waste building and testing
the same thing twice.
(merge 99fe06cbfd jc/ci-skip-same-commit later to maint).
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
(merge fd3ba590d8 ws/git-push-doc-grammofix later to maint).
