Three more minor fix-up topics are to be merged by 2.8 final, but we
are almost there.
There are quite a few topics that have been cooking in 'next' during
the pre-2.8 freeze period that are ready to be merged to 'master';
the first batch will be merged early next week, and then the tip of
'next' will be rebuilt on top sometime mid next week. Let's start
looking at new shiny toys after all that happens.

The code to list branches in "git branch" has been consolidated
with the more generic ref-filter API.
Will be rerolled.
* oa/doc-diff-check (2016-03-29) 1 commit

Docfix.

- refs: add REF_COMMON_DIR flag
- refs: add new flag RESOLVE_REF_COMMON_DIR to resolve_ref_unsafe
* rz/worktree-no-checkout (2016-03-29) 1 commit
- worktree: add: introduce --checkout option
When "git worktree" feature is in use, "git branch -m" renamed a
branch that is checked out in another worktree without adjusting
the HEAD symbolic ref for the worktree.
Needs review.
* nd/apply-doc (2016-03-24) 2 commits
- git-apply.txt: mention the behavior inside a subdir

"git worktree add" can be given "--no-checkout" option to only
create an empty worktree without checking out the files.

- notes: don't leak memory in git_config_get_notes_strategy
"git apply -v" learned to report paths in the patch that were
skipped via --include/--exclude mechanism or being outside the
current working directory.
Assorted minor clean-ups.

- api-parse-options.txt: document OPT_CMDMODE()
* sb/submodule-helper-clone-regression-fix (2016-04-01) 6 commits
- submodule--helper, module_clone: catch fprintf failure
- submodule--helper: do not borrow absolute_path() result for too long
- submodule--helper, module_clone: always operate on absolute paths
- submodule--helper clone: create the submodule path just once
- submodule--helper: fix potential NULL-dereference
- recursive submodules: test for relative paths
Minor API documentation update.
A partial rewrite of "git submodule" in the 2.7 timeframe changed
the way the gitdir: pointer in the submodules point at the real
repository location to use absolute paths by accident. This has
been corrected.
Any further comments? Otherwise will merge to 'next'.
* rt/completion-help (2016-03-24) 2 commits
- completion: add 'revisions' and 'everyday' to 'git help'

- t7407: make expectation as clear as possible
- submodule update: test recursive path reporting from subdirectory
- submodule update: align reporting path for custom command execution
- submodule status: correct path handling in recursive submodules
- submodule update --init: correct path handling in recursive submodules
- submodule foreach: correct path display in recursive submodules
Shell completion (in contrib/) updates.
"git submodule" reports the paths of submodules the command
recurses into, but this was incorrect when the command was not run
from the root level of the superproject.
Any further comments? Otherwise will merge to 'next'.
* rt/rebase-i-shorten-stop-report (2016-03-24) 1 commit
- rebase-i: print abbreviated hash when stop for editing
* sg/diff-multiple-identical-renames (2016-03-30) 1 commit
- diffcore: fix iteration order of identical files during rename detection
The commit object name reported when "rebase -i" stops has been
shortened.
"git diff -M" used to work better when two originally identical
files A and B got renamed to X/A and X/B by pairing A to X/A and B
to X/B, but this was broken in 2.0 timeframe.
Needs a better explanation.
Will merge to 'next'.
* sb/submodule-helper-prefix (2016-03-25) 5 commits
- submodule--helper clone: lose the extra prefix option
- submodule sync: test syncing one submodule
- submodule update: add test for recursive from non root dir

[Graduated to "master"]
"git send-pack --all <there>" was broken when its command line
option parsing was written in 2.6 timeframe.
* js/mingw-tests-2.8 (2016-03-23) 4 commits

* xy/format-patch-base (2016-03-31) 4 commits
- format-patch: introduce format.base configuration
- format-patch: introduce --base=auto option
- format-patch: add '--base' option to record base tree info
- patch-ids: make commit_patch_id() a public helper function
A fix to a small regression in module_list helper that was
rewritten in C in 2.7.x timeframe.
"git format-patch" learned a new "--base" option to record what
(public, well-known) commit the original series was built on in
its output.
Will be rerolled.

* da/user-useconfigonly (2016-04-01) 2 commits
- ident: give "please tell me" message upon useConfigOnly error
- ident: check for useConfigOnly before auto-detection of name/email
The "user.useConfigOnly" configuration variable makes it an error
if users do not explicitly set user.name and user.email. However,
its check was not done early enough and allowed another error to
trigger, reporting that the default value we guessed from the
system setting was unusable. This was a suboptimal end-user
experience as we want the users to set user.name/user.email without
relying on the auto-detection at all.
Waiting for Acks.
($gmane/290340)
* tb/safe-crlf-output-fix (2016-04-01) 7 commits
- convert.c: more safer crlf handling with text attribute
- correct blame for files commited with CRLF
- convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF
- t0027: test cases for combined attributes
- convert: allow core.autocrlf=input and core.eol=crlf
- convert.c: stream and early out
- read-cache: factor out get_sha1_from_index() helper
The "safe CRLF" facility disables line-end conversion from CRLF to
LF when checking in if the blob registered to the index already
contains CR, but some codepaths like "git blame" did not know this,
and instead assumed that only the configuration and attribute
settings determined how the data from the working tree is converted.
Comments sent.
