Merge branch 'hn/config-typo-advice' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:04Z

"git config foo.bar=baz" is not likely to be a request to read the value of such a variable with '=' in its name; rather it is plausible that the user meant "git config set foo.bar baz". Give advice when giving an error message. Comments? * hn/config-typo-advice: config: suggest the correct form when key contains "=" in set context

Merge branch 'rs/strbuf-add-oid-hex' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:04Z

Formatting object name in full hexadecimal form has been optimized by using a new strbuf_add_oid_hex() helper function. Comments? * rs/strbuf-add-oid-hex: hex: add and use strbuf_add_oid_hex()

Merge branch 'rs/strbuf-add-uint' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:03Z

Adding a decimal integer with strbuf_addf("%u") appears commonly; they have been optimized by using a custom formatter. Comments? * rs/strbuf-add-uint: ls-tree: use strbuf_add_uint() ls-files: use strbuf_add_uint() cat-file: use strbuf_add_uint() strbuf: add strbuf_add_uint()

Merge branch 'kk/merge-octopus-optim' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:03Z

The logic to determine that branches in an octopus merge are independent has been optimized. Comments? * kk/merge-octopus-optim: merge: use repo_in_merge_bases for octopus up-to-date check

Merge branch 'hn/branch-prune-merged' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:03Z

"git branch" command learned "--prune-merged" option to remove local branches that have already been merged to the remote-tracking branches they track. Comments? * hn/branch-prune-merged: branch: add --all-remotes flag branch: add branch..pruneMerged opt-out branch: add --prune-merged branch: let delete_branches warn instead of error on bulk refusal branch: add --forked

Merge branch 'ds/path-walk-filters' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:02Z

The "git pack-objects --path-walk" traversal has been integrated with several object filters, including blobless and sparse filters. Comments? * ds/path-walk-filters: path-walk: support `combine` filter path-walk: support `object:type` filter path-walk: support `tree:0` filter t6601: tag otherwise-unreachable trees pack-objects: support sparse:oid filter with path-walk path-walk: add pl_sparse_trees to control tree pruning path-walk: support blob size limit filter backfill: die on incompatible filter options path-walk: support blobless filter path-walk: always emit directly-requested objects t/perf: add pack-objects filter and path-walk benchmark pack-objects: pass --objects with --path-walk t5620: make test work with path-walk var

Merge branch 'hn/checkout-track-fetch' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:02Z

"git checkout --track=..." learned to optionally fetch the branch from the remote the new branch will work with. Comments? cf. * hn/checkout-track-fetch: checkout: extend --track with a "fetch" mode to refresh start-point

Merge branch 'ua/push-remote-group' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:01Z

"git push" learned to take a "remote group" name to push to, which causes pushes to multiple places, just like "git fetch" would do. * ua/push-remote-group: push: support pushing to a remote group remote: move remote group resolution to remote.c remote: fix sign-compare warnings in push_cas_option

Merge branch 'js/parseopt-subcommand-autocorrection' into seen

2026-05-18T05:29:00Z

The parse-options library learned to auto-correct misspelled subcommand names. * js/parseopt-subcommand-autocorrection: SQUASH??? doc: document autocorrect API parseopt: add tests for subcommand autocorrection parseopt: enable subcommand autocorrection for git-remote and git-notes parseopt: autocorrect mistyped subcommands autocorrect: provide config resolution API autocorrect: rename AUTOCORRECT_SHOW to AUTOCORRECT_HINT autocorrect: use mode and delay instead of magic numbers help: move tty check for autocorrection to autocorrect.c help: make autocorrect handling reusable parseopt: extract subcommand handling from parse_options_step()

Merge branch 'en/batch-prefetch' into seen

2026-05-18T05:28:59Z

In a lazy clone, "git cherry" and "git grep" often fetch necessary blob objects one by one from promisor remotes. It has been corrected to collect necessary object names and fetch them in bulk to gain reasonable performance. Comments? * en/batch-prefetch: grep: prefetch necessary blobs builtin/log: prefetch necessary blobs for `git cherry` patch-ids.h: add missing trailing parenthesis in documentation comment promisor-remote: document caller filtering contract
