The details of how credential helpers can be called or implemented were
originally covered in Documentation/technical/. Those are topics that
end users might care about (and we even referenced them in the
credentials manpage), but those docs typically don't ship as part of the
end user documentation, making them less useful.
This situation got slightly worse recently in f3b9055624 (credential:
move doc to credential.h, 2019-11-17), where we moved them into the C
header file, making them even harder to find.
So let's move put this information into the gitcredentials(7)
documentation, which is meant to describe the overall concepts of our
credential handling. This was already pointing to the API docs for these
concepts, so we can just include it inline instead.

The code to compute the commit-graph has been taught to use a more
robust way to tell if two object directories refer to the same
thing.
* tb/commit-graph-object-dir:
commit-graph.h: use odb in 'load_commit_graph_one_fd_st'
commit-graph.c: remove path normalization, comparison
commit-graph.h: store object directory in 'struct commit_graph'
commit-graph.h: store an odb in 'struct write_commit_graph_context'
t5318: don't pass non-object directory to '--object-dir'

The index-pack code now diagnoses a bad input packstream that
records the same object twice when it is used as delta base; the
code used to declare a software bug when encountering such an
input, but it is an input error.
* jk/index-pack-dupfix:
index-pack: downgrade twice-resolved REF_DELTA to die()
|
|
Misc code clean-ups.
* jk/alloc-cleanups:
tree-walk.c: break circular dependency with unpack-trees
traverse_trees(): use stack array for name entries
walker_fetch(): avoid raw array length computation
normalize_path_copy(): document "dst" size expectations
|
|
The code to automatically shrink the fan-out in the notes tree had
an off-by-one bug, which has been killed.
* jh/notes-fanout-fix:
notes.c: fix off-by-one error when decreasing notes fanout
t3305: check notes fanout more carefully and robustly

The way "git submodule status" reports an initialized but not yet
populated submodule has not been reimplemented correctly when a
part of the "git submodule" command was rewritten in C, which has
been corrected.
* pk/status-of-uncloned-submodule:
t7400: testcase for submodule status on unregistered inner git repos
submodule: fix status of initialized but not cloned submodules
t7400: add a testcase for submodule status on empty dirs
|

Some codepaths were given a repository instance as a parameter to
work in the repository, but passed the_repository instance to its
callees, which has been cleaned up (somewhat).
* mt/use-passed-repo-more-in-funcs:
sha1-file: allow check_object_signature() to handle any repo
sha1-file: pass git_hash_algo to hash_object_file()
sha1-file: pass git_hash_algo to write_object_file_prepare()

pack-check: use given repo's hash_algo at verify_packfile()
cache-tree: use given repo's hash_algo at verify_one()
diff: make diff_populate_filespec() honor its repo argument
|

The diff-* plumbing family of subcommands now pay attention to the
diff.wsErrorHighlight configuration, which has been ignored before;
this allows "git add -p" to also show the whitespace problems to
the end user.
* jk/diff-honor-wserrhighlight-in-plumbing:
diff: move diff.wsErrorHighlight to "basic" config

Unneeded connectivity check is now disabled in a partial clone when
fetching into it.
* jt/connectivity-check-optim-in-partial-clone:
fetch: forgo full connectivity check if --filter
connected: verify promisor-ness of partial clone

A low-level API function get_oid(), that accepts various ways to
name an object, used to issue end-user facing error messages

sha1-name: mark get_oid() error messages for translation
t1506: drop space after redirection operator

Allow the rebase.missingCommitsCheck configuration to kick in when
"rebase --edit-todo" and "rebase --continue" restarts the procedure.
* ag/edit-todo-drop-check:
rebase-interactive: warn if commit is dropped with `rebase --edit-todo'

"git rebase -i" (and friends) used to unnecessarily check out the
tip of the branch to be rebased, which has been corrected.
* ag/rebase-avoid-unneeded-checkout:
rebase -i: stop checking out the tip of the branch to rebase

A new version of fsmonitor-watchman hook has been introduced, to
avoid races.

fsmonitor: update documentation for hook version and watchman hooks
fsmonitor: add fsmonitor hook scripts for version 2
fsmonitor: handle version 2 of the hooks that will use opaque token
fsmonitor: change last update timestamp on the index_state to opaque token

"git rebase -i" identifies existing commits in its todo file with
their abbreviated object name, which could become ambigous as it
goes to create new commits, and has a mechanism to avoid ambiguity
in the main part of its execution. A few other cases however were
not covered by the protection against ambiguity, which has been
corrected.
* js/rebase-i-with-colliding-hash:
rebase -i: also avoid SHA-1 collisions with missingCommitsCheck
rebase -i: re-fix short SHA-1 collision
parse_insn_line(): improve error message when parsing failed

Traditionally, we avoided threaded grep while searching in objects
(as opposed to files in the working tree) as accesses to the object
layer is not thread-safe. This limitation is getting lifted.
* mt/threaded-grep-in-object-store:
grep: use no. of cores as the default no. of threads
grep: move driver pre-load out of critical section
grep: re-enable threads in non-worktree case
grep: protect packed_git [re-]initialization
grep: allow submodule functions to run in parallel
submodule-config: add skip_if_read option to repo_read_gitmodules()
grep: replace grep_read_mutex by internal obj read lock
object-store: allow threaded access to object reading
replace-object: make replace operations thread-safe
grep: fix racy calls in grep_objects()
grep: fix race conditions at grep_submodule()
grep: fix race conditions on userdiff calls

config doc: protocol.version is not experimental
fetch test: use more robust test for filtered objects

submodule foreach: replace $path with $sm_path in example

"git grep --no-index" should not get affected by the contents of
the .gitmodules file but when "--recurse-submodules" is given or
the "submodule.recurse" variable is set, it did. Now these
settings are ignored in the "--no-index" mode.
* pb/do-not-recurse-grep-no-index:
grep: ignore --recurse-submodules if --no-index is given
|

Futureproofing a test not to depend on the current implementation
detail.

enumeration API has been corrected.

dir: point treat_leading_path() warning to the right place
dir: restructure in a way to avoid passing around a struct dirent
dir: treat_leading_path() and read_directory_recursive(), round 2

Work around test breakages caused by custom regex engine used in
libasan, when address sanitizer is used with more recent versions
of gcc and clang.
* jk/asan-build-fix:
Makefile: use compat regex with SANITIZE=address
|
|
The code recently added in this release to move to the entry beyond
the ones in the same directory in the index in the sparse-cone mode
did not count the number of entries to skip over incorrectly, which
has been corrected.
* ds/sparse-cone:
.mailmap: fix GGG authoship screwup
unpack-trees: correctly compute result count
|
|
"git restore --staged" did not correctly update the cache-tree
structure, resulting in bogus trees to be written afterwards, which
has been corrected.

against corrupt index file.

|
|
C pedantry ;-) fix.

|
|
has_object_file() said "no" given an object registered to the
system via pretend_object_file(), making it inconsistent with
read_object_file(), causing lazy fetch to attempt fetching an
empty tree from promisor remotes.
