Unless I hear otherwise in the next 24 hours, I am planning to merge the following topics to 'master' before cutting -rc2. Please stop me on any of these topics.
- jc/postpone-rebase-in-c
This may be the most controversial. It demotes the C reimplementation of "git rebase" to an experimental opt-in feature that can only be enabled by setting rebase.useBuiltIn configuration that defaults to false.
cf. <xmqq36roz7ve.fsf_-_@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com>
- ab/format-patch-rangediff-not-stat
The "--rangediff" option recently added to "format-patch" interspersed a bogus and useless "--stat" information by mistake, which is being corrected.
cf. <xmqqa7lz43d8.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com>
The following three topics I do not need help in deciding; they are all good and will be merged before -rc2.
- jk/t5562-perl-path-fix
This is to invoke a perl scriptlet with "$PERL_PATH" in one of the new tests, instead of relying on (an incorrect) she-bang line in the script file.
- tb/clone-case-smashing-warning-test
This enables the test to see the behaviour of "git clone" after cloning a project that has paths that are different only in case on MINGW (earlier it wanted CASE_INSENSITIVE_FS prerequisite and in addition not on MINGW).
- nd/per-worktree-ref-iteration
This fixes a "return function_that_returns_void(...)" in a function that returns void.
Thanks.
