+ (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

+
+ * 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.

+
+ * 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.

+Git 2.25 Release Notes
+======================
+
+Updates since v2.24
+-------------------
+
+Backward compatibility notes
+
+
+UI, Workflows & Features
+
+ * A tutorial on object enumeration has been added.
+
+ * The branch description ("git branch --edit-description") has been
+ used to fill the body of the cover letters by the format-patch
+ command; this has been enhanced so that the subject can also be
+ filled.
+
+ * "git rebase --preserve-merges" has been marked as deprecated; this
+ release stops advertising it in the "git rebase -h" output.
+
+ * The code to generate multi-pack index learned to show (or not to
+ show) progress indicators.
+
+ * "git apply --3way" learned to honor merge.conflictStyle
+ configuration variable, like merges would.
+
+ * The custom format for "git log --format=<format>" learned the l/L
+ placeholder that is similar to e/E that fills in the e-mail
+ address, but only the local part on the left side of '@'.
+
+
+Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
+
+ * Debugging support for lazy cloning has been a bit improved.
+
+ * Move the definition of a set of bitmask constants from 0ctal
+ literal to (1U<<count) notation.
+
+ * Test updates to prepare for SHA-2 transition continues.
+
+
+Fixes since v2.24
+-----------------
+
+ * "rebase -i" ceased to run post-commit hook by mistake in an earlier
+ update, which has been corrected.
+
+ * "git notes copy $original" ought to copy the notes attached to the
+ original object to HEAD, but a mistaken tightening to command line
+ parameter validation made earlier disabled that feature by mistake.
+
+ * When all files from some subdirectory were renamed to the root
+ directory, the directory rename heuristics would fail to detect that
+ as a rename/merge of the subdirectory to the root directory, which has
+ been corrected.
+
+ * Code clean-up and a bugfix in the logic used to tell worktree local
+ and repository global refs apart.
+ (merge f45f88b2e4 sg/dir-trie-fixes later to maint).
+
+ * "git stash save" in a working tree that is sparsely checked out
+ mistakenly removed paths that are outside the area of interest.
+ (merge 4a58c3d7f7 js/update-index-ignore-removal-for-skip-worktree later to maint).
+
+ * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
+ (merge 80736d7c5e jc/am-show-current-patch-docfix later to maint).
+ (merge 8b656572ca sg/commit-graph-usage-fix later to maint).
