What's cooking in git.git (Jan 2009, #05; Wed, 21)
|
||||
--------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with '-' are
|
||||
only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are in 'next'. The ones
|
||||
marked with '.' do not appear in any of the branches, but I am still
|
||||
holding onto them.
|
||||
|
||||
The topics list the commits in reverse chronological order. The topics
|
||||
meant to be merged to the maintenance series have "maint-" in their names.
|
||||
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
[New Topics]
|
||||
|
||||
* js/valgrind (Wed Jan 21 02:36:40 2009 +0100) 2 commits
|
||||
- valgrind: ignore ldso errors
|
||||
- Add valgrind support in test scripts
|
||||
|
||||
Dscho seems to have some updates out of discussion with Peff.
|
||||
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
[Stalled and may need help and prodding to go forward]
|
||||
|
||||
* jc/blame (Wed Jun 4 22:58:40 2008 -0700) 2 commits
|
||||
+ blame: show "previous" information in --porcelain/--incremental
|
||||
format
|
||||
+ git-blame: refactor code to emit "porcelain format" output
|
||||
|
||||
This gives Porcelains (like gitweb) the information on the commit _before_
|
||||
the one that the final blame is laid on, which should save them one
|
||||
rev-parse to dig further. The line number in the "previous" information
|
||||
may need refining, and sanity checking code for reference counting may
|
||||
need to be resurrected before this can move forward.
|
||||
|
||||
* db/foreign-scm (Sun Jan 11 15:12:10 2009 -0500) 3 commits
|
||||
- Support fetching from foreign VCSes
|
||||
- Add specification of git-vcs helpers
|
||||
- Add "vcs" config option in remotes
|
||||
|
||||
The "spec" did not seem quite well cooked yet, but in the longer term I
|
||||
think something like this to allow interoperating with other SCMs as if
|
||||
the other end is a native git repository is a very worthy goal.
|
||||
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
[Actively cooking]
|
||||
|
||||
* sp/runtime-prefix (Sun Jan 18 13:00:15 2009 +0100) 7 commits
|
||||
- Windows: Revert to default paths and convert them by
|
||||
RUNTIME_PREFIX
|
||||
- Compute prefix at runtime if RUNTIME_PREFIX is set
|
||||
- Modify setup_path() to only add git_exec_path() to PATH
|
||||
- Add calls to git_extract_argv0_path() in programs that call
|
||||
git_config_*
|
||||
- git_extract_argv0_path(): Move check for valid argv0 from caller
|
||||
to callee
|
||||
- Refactor git_set_argv0_path() to git_extract_argv0_path()
|
||||
- Move computation of absolute paths from Makefile to runtime (in
|
||||
preparation for RUNTIME_PREFIX)
|
||||
|
||||
We should move this to 'next' soon with J6t's blessing.
|
||||
|
||||
* lh/submodule-tree-traversal (Mon Jan 12 00:45:55 2009 +0100) 3 commits
|
||||
+ builtin-ls-tree: enable traversal of submodules
|
||||
+ archive.c: enable traversal of submodules
|
||||
+ tree.c: add support for traversal of submodules
|
||||
|
||||
I think choosing the submodules to descend into by seeing if the commit
|
||||
happens to be available is a horribly broken semantics; it needs to be
|
||||
fixed before this can move to 'master'.
|
||||
|
||||
* jk/signal-cleanup (Sun Jan 11 06:36:49 2009 -0500) 3 commits
|
||||
- pager: do wait_for_pager on signal death
|
||||
- refactor signal handling for cleanup functions
|
||||
- chain kill signals for cleanup functions
|
||||
|
||||
I think this can move to 'next', as Peff and J6t agreed on how to fix
|
||||
things up as needed for Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
* ks/maint-mailinfo-folded (Tue Jan 13 01:21:04 2009 +0300) 5 commits
|
||||
- mailinfo: tests for RFC2047 examples
|
||||
- mailinfo: add explicit test for mails like '<a.u.thor@example.com>
|
||||
(A U Thor)'
|
||||
- mailinfo: more smarter removal of rfc822 comments from 'From'
|
||||
+ mailinfo: 'From:' header should be unfold as well
|
||||
+ mailinfo: correctly handle multiline 'Subject:' header
|
||||
|
||||
As far as I can see, the only remaining thing is a minor fix-up in the
|
||||
"comment removal" one before we can move this fully to 'next'.
|
||||
|
||||
* js/notes (Tue Jan 13 20:57:16 2009 +0100) 6 commits
|
||||
+ git-notes: fix printing of multi-line notes
|
||||
+ notes: fix core.notesRef documentation
|
||||
+ Add an expensive test for git-notes
|
||||
+ Speed up git notes lookup
|
||||
+ Add a script to edit/inspect notes
|
||||
+ Introduce commit notes
|
||||
|
||||
It would be nice to hear a real world success story using the notes
|
||||
mechanism before casting this design in stone.
|
||||
|
||||
* sc/gitweb-category (Fri Dec 12 00:45:12 2008 +0100) 3 commits
|
||||
- gitweb: Optional grouping of projects by category
|
||||
- gitweb: Split git_project_list_body in two functions
|
||||
- gitweb: Modularized git_get_project_description to be more generic
|
||||
|
||||
Design discussion between Jakub and Sebastien continues.
|
||||
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
[Graduated to "master"]
|
||||
|
||||
* jk/color-parse (Sat Jan 17 10:38:46 2009 -0500) 2 commits
|
||||
+ expand --pretty=format color options
|
||||
+ color: make it easier for non-config to parse color specs
|
||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||
+ run_hook(): check the executability of the hook before filling
|
||||
argv
|
||||
+ api-run-command.txt: talk about run_hook()
|
||||
+ Move run_hook() from builtin-commit.c into run-command.c (libgit)
|
||||
+ checkout: don't crash on file checkout before running post-
|
||||
checkout hook
|
||||
|
||||
* rs/ctype (Sat Jan 17 16:50:37 2009 +0100) 4 commits
|
||||
+ Add is_regex_special()
|
||||
+ Change NUL char handling of isspecial()
|
||||
+ Reformat ctype.c
|
||||
+ Add ctype test
|
||||
|
||||
* jf/am-failure-report (Sun Jan 18 19:34:31 2009 -0800) 2 commits

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
* sg/maint-gitdir-in-subdir (Fri Jan 16 16:37:33 2009 +0100) 1 commit
|
||||
+ Fix gitdir detection when in subdir of gitdir
|
||||
|
||||
This has my "don't do the fullpath if you are directly inside .git"
|
||||
squashed in, so it should be much safer.
|
||||
|
||||
* am/maint-push-doc (Sun Jan 18 15:36:58 2009 +0100) 4 commits
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
* lt/maint-wrap-zlib (Wed Jan 7 19:54:47 2009 -0800) 1 commit
|
||||
+ Wrap inflate and other zlib routines for better error reporting
|
||||
|
||||
Needs the "free our memory upon seeing Z_MEM_ERROR and try again" bits
|
||||
extracted from Shawn's patch on top of this one.
|
||||
|
||||
* kb/am-directory (Wed Jan 14 16:29:59 2009 -0800) 2 commits
|
||||
+ git-am: fix shell quoting
|
||||
+ git-am: add --directory=<dir> option
|
||||
|
||||
This is "third-time-lucky, perhaps?" resurrection. I do not think I'd be
|
||||
using this very often, but it originated from a real user request.
|
||||
|
||||
* jc/maint-format-patch-o-relative (Mon Jan 12 15:18:02 2009 -0800) 1 commit
|
||||
+ Teach format-patch to handle output directory relative to cwd
|
||||
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
