-Git 2.24 Release Notes
-======================
-
-Updates since v2.23
--------------------
-
-Backward compatibility note
-
- * "filter-branch" is showing its age and alternatives are available.
-   From this release, we started to discourage its use and hint
-   people about filter-repo.
-
-UI, Workflows & Features
-
- * We now have an active interim maintainer for the Git-Gui part of
-   the system.  Praise and thank Pratyush Yadav for volunteering.
-
- * The command line parser learned "--end-of-options" notation; the
-   standard convention for scripters to have hardcoded set of options
-   first on the command line, and force the command to treat end-user
-   input as non-options, has been to use "--" as the delimiter, but
-   that would not work for commands that use "--" as a delimiter
-   between revs and pathspec.
-
- * A mechanism to affect the default setting for a (related) group of
-   configuration variables is introduced.
-
- * "git fetch" learned "--set-upstream" option to help those who first
-   clone from their private fork they intend to push to, add the true
-   upstream via "git remote add" and then "git fetch" from it.
-
- * Device-tree files learned their own userdiff patterns.
-   (merge 3c81760bc6 sb/userdiff-dts later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase --rebase-merges" learned to drive different merge
-   strategies and pass strategy specific options to them.
-
- * A new "pre-merge-commit" hook has been introduced.
-
- * Command line completion updates for "git -c var.name=val" have been
-   added.
-
- * The lazy clone machinery has been taught that there can be more
-   than one promisor remote and consult them in order when downloading
-   missing objects on demand.
-
- * The list-objects-filter API (used to create a sparse/lazy clone)
-   learned to take a combined filter specification.
-
- * The documentation and tests for "git format-patch" have been
-   cleaned up.
-
- * On Windows, the root level of UNC share is now allowed to be used
-   just like any other directory.
-
- * The command line completion support (in contrib/) learned about the
-   "--skip" option of "git revert" and "git cherry-pick".
-
- * "git rebase --keep-base <upstream>" tries to find the original base
-   of the topic being rebased and rebase on top of that same base,
-   which is useful when running the "git rebase -i" (and its limited
-   variant "git rebase -x").
-
-   The command also has learned to fast-forward in more cases where it
-   can instead of replaying to recreate identical commits.
-
- * A configuration variable tells "git fetch" to write the commit
-   graph after finishing.
-
- * "git add -i" has been taught to show the total number of hunks and
-   the hunks that has been processed so far when showing prompts.
-
- * "git fetch --jobs=<n>" allowed <n> parallel jobs when fetching
-   submodules, but this did not apply to "git fetch --multiple" that
-   fetches from multiple remote repositories.  It now does.
-
- * The installation instruction for zsh completion script (in
-   contrib/) has been a bit improved.
-
-
-Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
-
- * The code to write commit-graph over given commit object names has
-   been made a bit more robust.
-
- * The first line of verbose output from each test piece now carries
-   the test name and number to help scanning with eyeballs.
-
- * Further clean-up of the initialization code.
-
- * xmalloc() used to have a mechanism to ditch memory and address
-   space resources as the last resort upon seeing an allocation
-   failure from the underlying malloc(), which made the code complex
-   and thread-unsafe with dubious benefit, as major memory resource
-   users already do limit their uses with various other mechanisms.
-   It has been simplified away.
-
- * Unnecessary full-tree diff in "git log -L" machinery has been
-   optimized away.
-
- * The http transport lacked some optimization the native transports
-   learned to avoid unnecessary ref advertisement, which has been
-   corrected.
-
- * Preparation for SHA-256 upgrade continues in the test department.
-   (merge 0c37c41d13 bc/hash-independent-tests-part-5 later to maint).
-
- * The memory ownership model of the "git fast-import" got
-   straightened out.
-
- * Output from trace2 subsystem is formatted more prettily now.
-
- * The internal code originally invented for ".gitignore" processing
-   got reshuffled and renamed to make it less tied to "excluding" and
-   stress more that it is about "matching", as it has been reused for
-   things like sparse checkout specification that want to check if a
-   path is "included".
-
- * "git stash" learned to write refreshed index back to disk.
-
- * Coccinelle checks are done on more source files than before now.
-
- * The cache-tree code has been taught to be less aggressive in
-   attempting to see if a tree object it computed already exists in
-   the repository.
-
- * The code to parse and use the commit-graph file has been made more
-   robust against corrupted input.
-
- * The hg-to-git script (in contrib/) has been updated to work with
-   Python 3.
-
- * Update the way build artifacts in t/helper/ directory are ignored.
-
- * Preparation for SHA-256 upgrade continues.
-
- * "git log --graph" for an octopus merge is sometimes colored
-   incorrectly, which is demonstrated and documented but not yet
-   fixed.
-
- * The trace2 output, when sending them to files in a designated
-   directory, can populate the directory with too many files; a
-   mechanism is introduced to set the maximum number of files and
-   discard further logs when the maximum is reached.
-
- * We have adopted a Code-of-conduct document.
-   (merge 3f9ef874a7 jk/coc later to maint).
-
-
-Fixes since v2.23
------------------
-
- * "git grep --recurse-submodules" that looks at the working tree
-   files looked at the contents in the index in submodules, instead of
-   files in the working tree.
-   (merge 6a289d45c0 mt/grep-submodules-working-tree later to maint).
-
- * Codepaths to walk tree objects have been audited for integer
-   overflows and hardened.
-   (merge 5aa02f9868 jk/tree-walk-overflow later to maint).
-
- * "git pack-refs" can lose refs that are created while running, which
-   is getting corrected.
-   (merge a613d4f817 sc/pack-refs-deletion-racefix later to maint).
-
- * "git checkout" and "git restore" to re-populate the index from a
-   tree-ish (typically HEAD) did not work correctly for a path that
-   was removed and then added again with the intent-to-add bit, when
-   the corresponding working tree file was empty.  This has been
-   corrected.
-
- * Compilation fix.
-   (merge 70597e8386 rs/nedalloc-fixlets later to maint).
-
- * "git gui" learned to call the clean-up procedure before exiting.
-   (merge 0d88f3d2c5 py/git-gui-do-quit later to maint).
-
- * We promoted the "indent heuristics" that decides where to split
-   diff hunks from experimental to the default a few years ago, but
-   some stale documentation still marked it as experimental, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge 64e5e1fba1 sg/diff-indent-heuristic-non-experimental later to maint).
-
- * Fix a mismerge that happened in 2.22 timeframe.
-   (merge acb7da05ac en/checkout-mismerge-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git archive" recorded incorrect length in extended pax header in
-   some corner cases, which has been corrected.
-   (merge 71d41ff651 rs/pax-extended-header-length-fix later to maint).
-
- * On-demand object fetching in lazy clone incorrectly tried to fetch
-   commits from submodule projects, while still working in the
-   superproject, which has been corrected.
-   (merge a63694f523 jt/diff-lazy-fetch-submodule-fix later to maint).
-
- * Prepare get_short_oid() codepath to be thread-safe.
-   (merge 7cfcb16b0e rs/sort-oid-array-thread-safe later to maint).
-
- * "for-each-ref" and friends that show refs did not protect themselves
-   against ancient tags that did not record tagger names when asked to
-   show "%(taggername)", which have been corrected.
-   (merge 8b3f33ef11 mp/for-each-ref-missing-name-or-email later to maint).
-
- * The "git am" based backend of "git rebase" ignored the result of
-   updating ".gitattributes" done in one step when replaying
-   subsequent steps.
-   (merge 2c65d90f75 bc/reread-attributes-during-rebase later to maint).
-
- * Tell cURL library to use the same malloc() implementation, with the
-   xmalloc() wrapper, as the rest of the system, for consistency.
-   (merge 93b980e58f cb/curl-use-xmalloc later to maint).
-
- * Build fix to adjust .gitignore to unignore a path that we started to track.
-   (merge aac6ff7b5b js/visual-studio later to maint).
-
- * A few implementation fixes in the notes API.
-   (merge 60fe477a0b mh/notes-duplicate-entries later to maint).
-
- * Fix an earlier regression to "git push --all" which should have
-   been forbidden when the target remote repository is set to be a
-   mirror.
-   (merge 8e4c8af058 tg/push-all-in-mirror-forbidden later to maint).
-
- * Fix an earlier regression in the test suite, which mistakenly
-   stopped running HTTPD tests.
-   (merge 3960290675 sg/git-test-boolean later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase --autostash <upstream> <branch>", when <branch> is
-   different from the current branch, incorrectly moved the tip of the
-   current branch, which has been corrected.
-   (merge bf1e28e0ad bw/rebase-autostash-keep-current-branch later to maint).
-
- * Update support for Asciidoctor documentation toolchain.
-   (merge 83b0b8953e ma/asciidoctor-refmiscinfo later to maint).
-
- * Start using DocBook 5 (instead of DocBook 4.5) as Asciidoctor 2.0
-   no longer works with the older one.
-   (merge f6461b82b9 bc/doc-use-docbook-5 later to maint).
-
- * The markup used in user-manual has been updated to work better with
-   asciidoctor.
-   (merge c4d2f6143a ma/user-manual-markup-update later to maint).
-
- * Make sure the grep machinery does not abort when seeing a payload
-   that is not UTF-8 even when JIT is not in use with PCRE1.
-   (merge ad7c543e3b cb/skip-utf8-check-with-pcre1 later to maint).
-
- * The name of the blob object that stores the filter specification
-   for sparse cloning/fetching was interpreted in a wrong place in the
-   code, causing Git to abort.
-
- * "git log --decorate-refs-exclude=<pattern>" was incorrectly
-   overruled when the "--simplify-by-decoration" option is used, which
-   has been corrected.
-   (merge 0cc7380d88 rs/simplify-by-deco-with-deco-refs-exclude later to maint).
-
- * The "upload-pack" (the counterpart of "git fetch") needs to disable
-   commit-graph when responding to a shallow clone/fetch request, but
-   the way this was done made Git panic, which has been corrected.
-
- * The object traversal machinery has been optimized not to load tree
-   objects when we are only interested in commit history.
-   (merge 72ed80c784 jk/list-objects-optim-wo-trees later to maint).
-
- * The object name parser for "Nth parent" syntax has been made more
-   robust against integer overflows.
-   (merge 59fa5f5a25 rs/nth-parent-parse later to maint).
-
- * The code used in following tags in "git fetch" has been optimized.
-   (merge b7e2d8bca5 ms/fetch-follow-tag-optim later to maint).
-
- * Regression fix for progress output.
-   (merge 2bb74b53a4 sg/progress-fix later to maint).
-
- * A bug in merge-recursive code that triggers when a branch with a
-   symbolic link is merged with a branch that replaces it with a
-   directory has been fixed.
-   (merge 83e3ad3b12 jt/merge-recursive-symlink-is-not-a-dir-in-way later to maint).
-
- * The rename detection logic sorts a list of rename source candidates
-   by similarity to pick the best candidate, which means that a tie
-   between sources with the same similarity is broken by the original
-   location in the original candidate list (which is sorted by path).
-   Force the sorting by similarity done with a stable sort, which is
-   not promised by system supplied qsort(3), to ensure consistent
-   results across platforms.
-   (merge 2049b8dc65 js/diff-rename-force-stable-sort later to maint).
-
- * The code to skip "UTF" and "UTF-" prefix, when computing an advice
-   message, did not work correctly when the prefix was "UTF", which
-   has been fixed.
-   (merge b181676ce9 rs/convert-fix-utf-without-dash later to maint).
-
- * The author names taken from SVN repositories may have extra leading
-   or trailing whitespaces, which are now munged away.
-   (merge 4ddd4bddb1 tk/git-svn-trim-author-name later to maint).
-
- * "git rebase -i" showed a wrong HEAD while "reword" open the editor.
-   (merge b0a3186140 pw/rebase-i-show-HEAD-to-reword later to maint).
-
- * A few simplification and bugfixes to PCRE interface.
-   (merge c581e4a749 ab/pcre-jit-fixes later to maint).
-
- * PCRE fixes.
-   (merge ff61681b46 cb/pcre1-cleanup later to maint).
-
- * "git range-diff" segfaulted when diff.noprefix configuration was
-   used, as it blindly expected the patch it internally generates to
-   have the standard a/ and b/ prefixes.  The command now forces the
-   internal patch to be built without any prefix, not to be affected
-   by any end-user configuration.
-   (merge 937b76ed49 js/range-diff-noprefix later to maint).
-
- * "git stash apply" in a subdirectory of a secondary worktree failed
-   to access the worktree correctly, which has been corrected.
-   (merge dfd557c978 js/stash-apply-in-secondary-worktree later to maint).
-
- * The merge-recursive machinery is one of the most complex parts of
-   the system that accumulated cruft over time.  This large series
-   cleans up the implementation quite a bit.
-   (merge b657047719 en/merge-recursive-cleanup later to maint).
-
- * Pretty-printed command line formatter (used in e.g. reporting the
-   command being run by the tracing API) had a bug that lost an
-   argument that is an empty string, which has been corrected.
-   (merge ce2d7ed2fd gs/sq-quote-buf-pretty later to maint).
-
- * "git range-diff" failed to handle mode-only change, which has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge 2b6a9b13ca tg/range-diff-output-update later to maint).
-
- * Dev support update.
-   (merge 4f3c1dc5d6 dl/allow-running-cocci-verbosely later to maint).
-
- * "git format-patch -o <outdir>" did an equivalent of "mkdir <outdir>"
-   not "mkdir -p <outdir>", which was corrected.
-
- * "git stash save" lost local changes to submodules, which has been
-   corrected.
-   (merge 556895d0c8 jj/stash-reset-only-toplevel later to maint).
-
- * The atomic push over smart HTTP transport did not work, which has
-   been corrected.
-   (merge 6f1194246a bc/smart-http-atomic-push later to maint).
-
- * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
-   (merge d1387d3895 en/fast-import-merge-doc later to maint).
-   (merge 1c24a54ea4 bm/repository-layout-typofix later to maint).
