What's cooking in git.git (topics)
From: Junio C Hamano <hidden>

Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed
with '-' are only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are
in 'next'. The topics list the commits in reverse chronological
order.
* lt/follow (Tue Jun 19 14:22:46 2007 -0700) 1 commit
+ Finally implement "git log --follow"
Has leaks, and it won't graduate to 'master' without
documentation.
Also I am not convinced its handling of merges is sane. If you
have an ancestry graph like this, and the commit A renames the
followed path, it would show the file _before_ rename, which is
very good.
o-------B---A---o----o
/
o----C------'
But the code changes pathspec globally, so when we are looking
at C, it may or may not have that (before-renamed) path there.
At least, the patch is small and would not affect codepath that
does not use this option, so in that sense it is relatively safe
change, though.
* jc/oneline (Fri Jun 15 13:19:07 2007 +0100) 4 commits
+ pp_header(): work around possible memory corruption
+ Fix ALLOC_GROW off-by-one
+ Extend --pretty=oneline to cover the first paragraph,
+ Lift 16kB limit of log message output
* jk/add-empty (Tue Jun 12 23:42:14 2007 +0200) 2 commits
+ builtin-add: simplify (and increase accuracy of) exclude handling
+ dir_struct: add collect_ignored option
Will merge this weekend.
* ns/clone (Sat Jun 16 15:26:08 2007 -0700) 1 commit
+ Cloning from a repo without "current branch"
Will merge this weekend.
* js/filter (Fri Jun 8 23:28:50 2007 +0200) 11 commits
+ filter-branch: subdirectory filter needs --full-history
+ filter-branch: Simplify parent computation.
+ Teach filter-branch about subdirectory filtering
+ filter-branch: also don't fail in map() if a commit cannot be
mapped
+ filter-branch: Use rev-list arguments to specify revision ranges.
+ filter-branch: fix behaviour of '-k'
+ filter-branch: use $(($i+1)) instead of $((i+1))
+ chmod +x git-filter-branch.sh
+ filter-branch: prevent filters from reading from stdin
+ t7003: make test repeatable
+ Add git-filter-branch
Will merge this weekend.
* ew/svn (Wed Jun 13 02:23:28 2007 -0700) 1 commit
+ git-svn: allow dcommit to retain local merge information
Haven't heard major breakage report, so hopefully can merge by
the end of the month.
* ml/worktree (Fri Jun 8 22:57:55 2007 +0200) 9 commits
+ make git barf when an alias changes environment variables
+ setup_git_directory: fix segfault if repository is found in cwd
+ test GIT_WORK_TREE
+ extend rev-parse test for --is-inside-work-tree
+ Use new semantics of is_bare/inside_git_dir/inside_work_tree
+ introduce GIT_WORK_TREE to specify the work tree
+ test git rev-parse
+ rev-parse: introduce --is-bare-repository
+ rev-parse: document --is-inside-git-dir
I've been resisting this but I think its definition of is-bare
is a bit saner than what we have in 'master', and I think it is
the right direction in the longer term. HOWEVER, I am not sure
about the implementation and corner cases, e.g. what should it
do in receive-pack? You cannot rely on user setting GIT_WORK_TREE
environment -- rather, receive-pack is responsible for setting
up a sane environment for other commands to work in.
* jo/init (Thu Jun 7 07:50:30 2007 -0500) 2 commits
- Quiet the output from git-init when cloning, if requested.
- Add an option to quiet git-init.
