What's cooking in git.git (Dec 2025, #04)

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

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).

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/

 + streaming: drop the `open()` callback function
 + streaming: rename `git_istream` into `odb_read_stream`
 + Merge branch 'ps/object-source-loose' into ps/object-read-stream
 (this branch is used by ps/packfile-store-in-odb-source.)

 The "git_istream" abstraction has been revamped to make it easier
 to interface with pluggable object database design.

 Will merge to 'master'.

* jc/submodule-add (2025-11-15) 1 commit
 - submodule add: sanity check existing .gitmodules

 "git submodule add" to add a submodule under <name> segfaulted,
 when a submodule.<name>.something is already in .gitmodules file
 without defining where its submodule.<name>.path is, which has been
 corrected.

 Will merge to 'next'?

* kn/fix-fetch-backfill-tag-with-batched-ref-updates (2025-11-21) 3 commits
 - fetch: fix failed batched updates skipping operations
 - fetch: fix non-conflicting tags not being committed
 - fetch: extract out reference committing logic

 "git fetch" that involves fetching tags, when a tag being fetched
 needs to overwrite existing one, failed to fetch other tags, which
 has been corrected.

 Expecting a (hopefully small and final) reroll.

 - interpret-trailers: factor out buffer-based processing to process_trailers()

 Refactor code paths to run "interpret-trailers" from "git
 commit/tag" and use it in "git rebase".

 Expecting a reroll.

* jc/exclude-with-gitignore (2025-11-04) 1 commit
 - dir.c: do not be fooled by :(exclude) pathspec elements

 "git add ':(exclude)foo.o'" is clearly a request not to add 'foo.o',
 but the command complained about listing an ignored path foo.o on
 the command line, which has been corrected.

* wm/complete-git-short-opts (2025-11-26) 1 commit
 - completion: complete "git -<TAB>" with short options

 The command line completion script (in contrib/) learned to
 complete "git -<TAB>" to give single-letter options like "-C".

 Will discard.  We do not complete single-letter options themselves.
