* jc/hash-object (2014-09-11) 3 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at ea6ac62)
+ hash-object: add --literally option
+ hash-object: pass 'write_object' as a flag
+ hash-object: reduce file-scope statics
(this branch is used by jc/hash-object-fsck-tag.)
"hash-object" learned a new "--literally" option to hash any random
garbage into a loose object, to allow us to create a test data for
mechanisms to catch corrupt objects.
* jc/hash-object-fsck-tag (2014-09-12) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at f14a7fe)
+ t1450: make sure fsck detects a malformed tagger line
+ Merge branch 'js/fsck-tag-validation' into HEAD
(this branch uses jc/hash-object and js/fsck-tag-validation.)
Using "hash-object --literally", test one of the new breakages
js/fsck-tag-validation topic teaches "fsck" to catch is caught.
* jc/ignore-sigpipe-while-running-hooks (2014-09-16) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at 7abf293)
+ receive-pack: allow hooks to ignore its standard input stream
pre- and post-receive hooks are no longer required to read all
their inputs.
* jk/branch-verbose-merged (2014-09-18) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-23 at d940d15)
+ branch: clean up commit flags after merge-filter walk
The "--verbose" option no longer breaks "git branch --merged $it".
* jk/close-stderr-of-credential-cache-deamon (2014-09-16) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at 51ba3be)
+ credential-cache: close stderr in daemon process
Plug fd leaks.
* jk/faster-name-conflicts (2014-09-12) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at 34d2840)
+ refs: speed up is_refname_available
Optimize the check to see if a ref $F can be created by making sure
no existing ref has $F/ as its prefix, which especially matters in
a repository with a large number of existing refs.
* jk/prune-packed-server-info (2014-09-15) 4 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at 5e6c398)
+ repack: call prune_packed_objects() and update_server_info() directly
+ server-info: clean up after writing info/packs
+ make update-server-info more robust
+ prune-packed: fix minor memory leak
Code cleanup.
* jk/write-packed-refs-via-stdio (2014-09-10) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at f1e94fb)
+ refs: write packed_refs file using stdio
Optimize the code path to write out the packed-refs file, which
especially matters in a repository with a large number of refs.
* js/fsck-tag-validation (2014-09-12) 6 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-19 at 4a62182)
+ Make sure that index-pack --strict checks tag objects
+ Add regression tests for stricter tag fsck'ing
+ fsck: check tag objects' headers
+ Make sure fsck_commit_buffer() does not run out of the buffer
+ fsck_object(): allow passing object data separately from the object itself
+ Refactor type_from_string() to allow continuing after detecting an error
(this branch is used by jc/hash-object-fsck-tag.)
Teach "git fsck" to inspect the contents of annotated tag objects.
* rs/realloc-array (2014-09-18) 2 commits

[New Topics]
* nd/archive-pathspec (2014-09-22) 1 commit
- archive: support filtering paths with glob
* jc/push-cert-hmac-optim (2014-09-25) 2 commits
- receive-pack: truncate hmac early and convert only necessary bytes
- sha1_to_hex: split out "hex-format n bytes" helper and use it
(this branch uses jc/push-cert.)
"git archive" learned to filter what gets archived with pathspec.
This is "we could do this if we wanted to", not "we measured and it
improves performance critical codepath".
Will merge to 'next'.
Will perhaps drop.
* rs/graph-simplify (2014-09-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-23 at 72969e2)
+ graph: simplify graph_padding_line()
* je/quiltimport-no-fuzz (2014-09-26) 2 commits
- git-quiltimport: flip the default not to allow fuzz
- git-quiltimport.sh: allow declining fuzz with --exact option
Will merge to 'master'.
"quiltimport" drove "git apply" always with -C1 option to reduce
context of the patch in order to give more chance to somewhat stale
patches to apply. Add an "--exact" option to disable, and also
"-C$n" option to customize this behaviour. The top patch
optionally flips the default to "--exact".
* rs/remote-simplify (2014-09-22) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-23 at 176e316)

Will merge to 'master'.
* sb/merge-recursive-copy-paste-fix (2014-09-23) 2 commits
(merged to 'next' on 2014-09-24 at b8dfbef)
+ merge-recursive: remove stale commented debugging code
+ merge-recursive: fix copy-paste mistake
"git merge-recursive" had a small bug that could have made it
mishandle "one side deleted, the other side did not touch it" in a
rare corner case, where the other side actually did touch to cause
the blob object names to be different but both blobs before and
after the change normalize to the same (e.g. correcting mistake to
check in a blob with CRLF line endings by replacing it with another
blob that records the same contents with LF line endings).
Will merge to 'master'.

(this branch is used by jt/timer-settime.)
Split the early part of jt/timer-settime topic out into a topic.
