  To: git

Here 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).

Git 2.51-rc0 preview release is planned to happen tomorrow, but no
promises.

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/

Release tarballs are available at:

 better alternatives.

* ds/sparse-checkout-clean (2025-07-16) 9 commits
 - sparse-checkout: make 'clean' clear more files
 - t: expand tests around sparse merges and clean
 - sparse-index: point users to new 'clean' action
 - sparse-checkout: add --verbose option to 'clean'
 - dir: add generic "walk all files" helper
 - sparse-checkout: match some 'clean' behavior

 "git sparse-checkout" subcommand learned a new "clean" action to
 prune otherwise unused working-tree files that are outside the
 areas of interest.

 Needs to wait for the base topic to solidify.

 Proposes to deprecate "core.commentChar=auto" that attempts to
 dynamically pick a suitable comment character, as it is too much
 trouble to support for little benefit.

 Comments?

 Gauge if the world is ready for compound literal that can make the
 resulting code clearer in some places.

 Discarded; it turns out that we already have a test balloon on this.

 "git tag T O" when the tag T is already pointing at the object O is
 a no-op; we used to but no longer error out such a request and
 require "--force" and instead turn it into a no-op.
