Junio C HamanoHere are the topics that have been cooking in my tree. Commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next' (being in 'next' is a sign that a topic is stable enough to be used and are candidate to be in a future release). Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'seen', and aren't considered "accepted" at all and may be annotated with an URL to a message that raises issues but they are no means exhaustive. A topic without enough support may be discarded after a long period of no activity (of course they can be resubmit when new interests arise).
There are quite a few topics that are listed here but without much review activities. I earlier said that I'll review the notes below with list archive myself to see which ones are truly stale and discard them, but this is progressing a lot slower than my liking. Help is greatly appreciated.
Copies of the source code to Git live in many repositories, and the following is a list of the ones I push into or their mirrors. Some repositories have only a subset of branches.
With maint, master, next, seen, todo:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/ git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git/ https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git/ https://github.com/git/git/ https://gitlab.com/git-scm/git/
With all the integration branches and topics broken out:
https://github.com/gitster/git/
Even though the preformatted documentation in HTML and man format are not sources, they are published in these repositories for convenience (replace "htmldocs" with "manpages" for the manual pages):
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-htmldocs.git/ https://github.com/gitster/git-htmldocs.git/

* ds/backfill (2025-01-23) 6 commits - backfill: assume --sparse when sparse-checkout is enabled - backfill: add --sparse option - backfill: add --min-batch-size=<n> option - backfill: basic functionality and tests - backfill: add builtin boilerplate - Merge branch 'ds/path-walk-1' into ds/backfill (this branch uses ds/path-walk-1.)
Lazy-loading missing files in a blobless clone on demand is costly as it tends to be one-blob-at-a-time. "git backfill" is introduced to help bulk-download necessary files beforehand.

* ps/send-pack-unhide-error-in-atomic-push (2024-11-14) 2 commits - transport: don't ignore git-receive-pack(1) exit code on atomic push - t5504: modernize test by moving heredocs into test bodies
"git push --atomic --porcelain" used to ignore failures from the other side, losing the error status from the child process, which has been corrected.
On hold. Needs to see if competing parallel topic needs to replace this one. cf. <Z5MuCd_GbbLK_puS@pks.im> source: <20241113-pks-push-atomic-respect-exit-code-v1-0-7965f01e7f4e@pks.im>
* ds/name-hash-tweaks (2024-12-20) 8 commits - pack-objects: add third name hash version - pack-objects: prevent name hash version change - test-tool: add helper for name-hash values - p5313: add size comparison test - pack-objects: add GIT_TEST_NAME_HASH_VERSION - repack: add --name-hash-version option - pack-objects: add --name-hash-version option - pack-objects: create new name-hash function version
"git pack-objects" and its wrapper "git repack" learned an option to use an alternative path-hash function to improve delta-base selection to produce a packfile with deeper history than window size.

Code rewrite to turn the is_bare_repository_cfg global variable into a member in the the_repo singleton repository object.
