+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 '@'.
+
+ * Documentation pages for "git shortlog" now list commit limiting
+ options explicitly.
+
+ * The patterns to detect function boundary for Elixir language has
+ been added.
+
+ * The completion script (in contrib/) learned that the "--onto"
+ option of "git rebase" can take its argument as the value of the
+ option.
+
+ * The userdiff machinery has been taught that "async def" is another
+ way to begin a "function" in Python.
+
+ * "git range-diff" learned to take the "--notes=<ref>" and the
+ "--no-notes" options to control the commit notes included in the
+ log message that gets compared.
+
+ * "git rev-parse --show-toplevel" run outside of any working tree did
+ not error out, which has been corrected.
+
+ * A few commands learned to take the pathspec from the standard input
+ or a named file, instead of taking it as the command line
+ arguments, with the "--pathspec-from-file" option.
+
+ * "git submodule" learned a subcommand "set-url".
+
+ * "git log" family learned "--pretty=reference" that gives the name
+ of a commit in the format that is often used to refer to it in log
+ messages.
+
+ * The interaction between "git clone --recurse-submodules" and
+ alternate object store was ill-designed. The documentation and
+ code have been taught to make more clear recommendations when the
+ users see failures.
+
+ * Management of sparsely checked-out working tree has gained a
+ dedicated "sparse-checkout" command.
+
+ * Miscellaneous small UX improvements on "git-p4".
+
+ * "git sparse-checkout list" subcommand learned to give its output in
+ a more concise form when the "cone" mode is in effect.
+
+
+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.
+
+ * Crufty code and logic accumulated over time around the object
+ parsing and low-level object access used in "git fsck" have been
+ cleaned up.
+
+ * The implementation of "git log --graph" got refactored and then its
+ output got simplified.
+
+ * Follow recent push to move API docs from Documentation/ to header
+ files and update config.h
+
+ * "git bundle" has been taught to use the parse options API. "git
+ bundle verify" learned "--quiet" and "git bundle create" learned
+ options to control the progress output.
+
+ * Handling of commit objects that use non UTF-8 encoding during
+ "rebase -i" has been improved.
+
+ * The beginning of rewriting "git add -i" in C.
+
+ * A label used in the todo list that are generated by "git rebase
+ --rebase-merges" is used as a part of a refname; the logic to come
+ up with the label has been tightened to avoid names that cannot be
+ used as such.
+
+ * The logic to avoid duplicate label names generated by "git rebase
+ --rebase-merges" forgot that the machinery itself uses "onto" as a
+ label name, which must be avoided by auto-generated labels, which
+ has been corrected.
+
+ * We have had compatibility fallback macro definitions for "PRIuMAX",
+ "PRIu32", etc. but did not for "PRIdMAX", while the code used the
+ last one apparently without any hiccup reported recently. The
+ fallback macro definitions for these <inttypes.h> macros that must
+ appear in C99 systems have been removed.
+
+ * Recently we have declared that GIT_TEST_* variables take the
+ usual boolean values (it used to be that some used "non-empty
+ means true" and taking GIT_TEST_VAR=YesPlease as true); make
+ sure we notice and fail when non-bool strings are given to
+ these variables.
+
+ * Users of oneway_merge() (like "reset --hard") learned to take
+ advantage of fsmonitor to avoid unnecessary lstat(2) calls.
+
+ * Performance tweak on "git push" into a repository with many refs
+ that point at objects we have never heard of.
+
+ * PerfTest fix to avoid stale result mixed up with the latest round
+ of test results.
+
+ * Hide lower-level verify_signed-buffer() API as a pure helper to
+ implement the public check_signature() function, in order to
+ encourage new callers to use the correct and more strict
+ validation.
+
+ * Unnecessary reading of state variables back from the disk during
+ sequencer operation has been reduced.
+
+ * The code has been made to avoid gmtime() and localtime() and prefer
+ their reentrant counterparts.
+
+ * In a repository with many packfiles, the cost of the procedure that
+ avoids registering the same packfile twice was unnecessarily high
+ by using an inefficient search algorithm, which has been corrected.
+
+ * Redo "git name-rev" to avoid recursive calls.
+
+ * FreeBSD CI support via Cirrus-CI has been added.
+
+
+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).
+
+ * "git rev-parse --git-path HEAD.lock" did not give the right path
+ when run in a secondary worktree.
+ (merge 76a53d640f js/git-path-head-dot-lock-fix later to maint).
+
+ * "git merge --no-commit" needs "--no-ff" if you do not want to move
+ HEAD, which has been corrected in the manual page for "git bisect".
+ (merge 8dd327b246 ma/bisect-doc-sample-update later to maint).
+
+ * "git worktree add" internally calls "reset --hard" that should not
+ descend into submodules, even when submodule.recurse configuration
+ is set, but it was affected. This has been corrected.
+ (merge 4782cf2ab6 pb/no-recursive-reset-hard-in-worktree-add later to maint).
+
+ * Messages from die() etc. can be mixed up from multiple processes
+ without even line buffering on Windows, which has been worked
+ around.
+ (merge 116d1fa6c6 js/vreportf-wo-buffering later to maint).
+
+ * HTTP transport had possible allocator/deallocator mismatch, which
+ has been corrected.
+
+ * The watchman integration for fsmonitor was racy, which has been
+ corrected to be more conservative.
+ (merge dd0b61f577 kw/fsmonitor-watchman-fix later to maint).
+
+ * Fetching from multiple remotes into the same repository in parallel
+ had a bad interaction with the recent change to (optionally) update
+ the commit-graph after a fetch job finishes, as these parallel
+ fetches compete with each other. Which has been corrected.
+
+ * Recent update to "git stash pop" made the command empty the index
+ when run with the "--quiet" option, which has been corrected.
+
+ * "git fetch" codepath had a big "do not lazily fetch missing objects
+ when I ask if something exists" switch. This has been corrected by
+ marking the "does this thing exist?" calls with "if not please do not
+ lazily fetch it" flag.
+
+ * Test update to avoid wasted cycles.
+ (merge e0316695ec sg/skip-skipped-prereq later to maint).
+
+ * Error handling after "git push" finishes sending the packdata and
+ waits for the response to the remote side has been improved.
+ (merge ad7a403268 jk/send-pack-remote-failure later to maint).
+
+ * Some codepaths in "gitweb" that forgot to escape URLs generated
+ based on end-user input have been corrected.
+ (merge a376e37b2c jk/gitweb-anti-xss later to maint).
+
+ * CI jobs for macOS has been made less chatty when updating perforce
+ package used during testing.
+ (merge 0dbc4a0edf jc/azure-ci-osx-fix-fix later to maint).
+
+ * "git unpack-objects" used to show progress based only on the number
+ of received and unpacked objects, which stalled when it has to
+ handle an unusually large object. It now shows the throughput as
+ well.
+ (merge bae60ba7e9 sg/unpack-progress-throughput later to maint).
+
+ * The sequencer machinery compared the HEAD and the state it is
+ attempting to commit to decide if the result would be a no-op
+ commit, even when amending a commit, which was incorrect, and
+ has been corrected.
+
+ * The code to parse GPG output used to assume incorrectly that the
+ finterprint for the primary key would always be present for a valid
+ signature, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 67a6ea6300 hi/gpg-optional-pkfp-fix later to maint).
+
+ * "git submodule status" and "git submodule status --cached" show
+ different things, but the documentation did not cover them
+ correctly, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 8d483c8408 mg/doc-submodule-status-cached later to maint).
+
+ * "git reset --patch $object" without any pathspec should allow a
+ tree object to be given, but incorrectly required a committish,
+ which has been corrected.
+
+ * "git submodule status" that is run from a subdirectory of the
+ superproject did not work well, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 1f3aea22c7 mg/submodule-status-from-a-subdirectory later to maint).
+
+ * The revision walking machinery uses resources like per-object flag
+ bits that need to be reset before a new iteration of walking
+ begins, but the resources related to topological walk were not
+ cleared correctly, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 0aa0c2b2ec mh/clear-topo-walk-upon-reset later to maint).
+
+ * TravisCI update.
+ (merge 176441bfb5 sg/osx-force-gcc-9 later to maint).
+
+ * While running "revert" or "cherry-pick --edit" for multiple
+ commits, a recent regression incorrectly detected "nothing to
+ commit, working tree clean", instead of replaying the commits,
+ which has been corrected.
+ (merge befd4f6a81 sg/assume-no-todo-update-in-cherry-pick later to maint).
+
+ * Work around a issue where a FD that is left open when spawning a
+ child process and is kept open in the child can interfere with the
+ operation in the parent process on Windows.
+
+ * One kind of progress messages were always given during commit-graph
+ generation, instead of following the "if it takes more than two
+ seconds, show progress" pattern, which has been corrected.
+
+ * "git rebase" did not work well when format.useAutoBase
+ configuration variable is set, which has been corrected.
+
+ * The "diff" machinery learned not to lose added/removed blank lines
+ in the context when --ignore-blank-lines and --function-context are
+ used at the same time.
+ (merge 0bb313a552 rs/xdiff-ignore-ws-w-func-context later to maint).
+
+ * The test on "fast-import" used to get stuck when "fast-import" died
+ in the middle.
+ (merge 0d9b0d7885 sg/t9300-robustify later to maint).
+
+ * "git format-patch" can take a set of configured format.notes values
+ to specify which notes refs to use in the log message part of the
+ output. The behaviour of this was not consistent with multiple
+ --notes command line options, which has been corrected.
+ (merge e0f9095aaa dl/format-patch-notes-config-fixup later to maint).
+
+ * "git p4" used to ignore lfs.storage configuration variable, which
+ has been corrected.
+ (merge ea94b16fb8 rb/p4-lfs later to maint).
+
+ * Assorted fixes to the directory traversal API.
+ (merge 6836d2fe06 en/fill-directory-fixes later to maint).
+
+ * Forbid pathnames that the platform's filesystem cannot represent on
+ MinGW.
+ (merge 4dc42c6c18 js/mingw-reserved-filenames later to maint).
+
+ * "git rebase --signoff" stopped working when the command was written
+ in C, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 4fe7e43c53 en/rebase-signoff-fix later to maint).
+
+ * An earlier update to Git for Windows declared that a tree object is
+ invalid if it has a path component with backslash in it, which was
+ overly strict, which has been corrected. The only protection the
+ Windows users need is to prevent such path (or any path that their
+ filesystem cannot check out) from entering the index.
+ (merge 224c7d70fa js/mingw-loosen-overstrict-tree-entry-checks later to maint).
+
+ * The code to write split commit-graph file(s) upon fetching computed
+ bogus value for the parameter used in splitting the resulting
+ files, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 63020f175f ds/commit-graph-set-size-mult later to maint).

+Git 2.25.1 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Fixes since v2.25
+-----------------
+
+ * "git commit" gives output similar to "git status" when there is
+ nothing to commit, but without honoring the advise.statusHints
+ configuration variable, which has been corrected.
+
+ * has_object_file() said "no" given an object registered to the
+ system via pretend_object_file(), making it inconsistent with
+ read_object_file(), causing lazy fetch to attempt fetching an
+ empty tree from promisor remotes.
+
+ * The code that tries to skip over the entries for the paths in a
+ single directory using the cache-tree was not careful enough
+ against corrupt index file.
+
+ * Complete an update to tutorial that encourages "git switch" over
+ "git checkout" that was done only half-way.
+
+ * Reduce unnecessary round-trip when running "ls-remote" over the
+ stateless RPC mechanism.
+
+ * "git restore --staged" did not correctly update the cache-tree
+ structure, resulting in bogus trees to be written afterwards, which
+ has been corrected.
+
+ * The code recently added to move to the entry beyond the ones in the
+ same directory in the index in the sparse-cone mode did not count
+ the number of entries to skip over incorrectly, which has been
+ corrected.
+
+ * Work around test breakages caused by custom regex engine used in
+ libasan, when address sanitizer is used with more recent versions
+ of gcc and clang.
+
+ * "git fetch --refmap=" option has got a better documentation.
+
+ * Corner case bugs in "git clean" that stems from a (necessarily for
+ performance reasons) awkward calling convention in the directory
+ enumeration API has been corrected.
+
+ * "git grep --no-index" should not get affected by the contents of
+ the .gitmodules file but when "--recurse-submodules" is given or
+ the "submodule.recurse" variable is set, it did. Now these
+ settings are ignored in the "--no-index" mode.
+
+ * Technical details of the bundle format has been documented.
+
+ * Unhelpful warning messages during documentation build have been
+ squelched.
+
+Also contains various documentation updates, code clean-ups and minor fixups.

+Git 2.26 Release Notes
+======================
+
+Updates since v2.25
+-------------------
+
+UI, Workflows & Features
+
+ * Sample credential helper for using .netrc has been updated to work
+ out of the box.
+
+ * gpg.minTrustLevel configuration variable has been introduced to
+ tell various signature verification codepaths the required minimum
+ trust level.
+
+ * The command line completion (in contrib/) learned to complete
+ subcommands and arguments to "git worktree".
+
+ * Disambiguation logic to tell revisions and pathspec apart has been
+ tweaked so that backslash-escaped glob special characters do not
+ count in the "wildcards are pathspec" rule.
+
+ * One effect of specifying where the GIT_DIR is (either with the
+ environment variable, or with the "git --git-dir=<where> cmd"
+ option) is to disable the repository discovery. This has been
+ placed a bit more stress in the documentation, as new users often
+ get confused.
+
+ * Two help messages given when "git add" notices the user gave it
+ nothing to add have been updated to use advise() API.
+
+ * A new version of fsmonitor-watchman hook has been introduced, to
+ avoid races.
+
+ * "git config" learned to show in which "scope", in addition to in
+ which file, each config setting comes from.
+
+ * The basic 7 colors learned the brighter counterparts
+ (e.g. "brightred").
+
+
+Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
+
+ * Tell .editorconfig that in this project, *.txt files are indented
+ with tabs.
+
+ * The test-lint machinery knew to check "VAR=VAL shell_function"
+ construct, but did not check "VAR= shell_funciton", which has been
+ corrected.
+
+ * Replace "git config --bool" calls with "git config --type=bool" in
+ sample templates.
+
+ * The effort to move "git-add--interactive" to C continues.
+
+ * Improve error message generation for "git submodule add".
+
+ * Preparation of test scripts for the day when the object names will
+ use SHA-256 continues.
+
+ * Warn programmers about pretend_object_file() that allows the code
+ to tentatively use in-core objects.
+
+ * The way "git pack-objects" reuses objects stored in existing pack
+ to generate its result has been improved.
+
+ * The transport protocol version 2 becomes the default one.
+
+ * Traditionally, we avoided threaded grep while searching in objects
+ (as opposed to files in the working tree) as accesses to the object
+ layer is not thread-safe. This limitation is getting lifted.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" (and friends) used to unnecessarily check out the
+ tip of the branch to be rebased, which has been corrected.
+
+ * A low-level API function get_oid(), that accepts various ways to
+ name an object, used to issue end-user facing error messages
+ without l10n, which has been updated to be translatable.
+
+ * Unneeded connectivity check is now disabled in a partial clone when
+ fetching into it.
+
+ * Some rough edges in the sparse-checkout feature, especially around
+ the cone mode, have been cleaned up.
+
+ * The diff-* plumbing family of subcommands now pay attention to the
+ diff.wsErrorHighlight configuration, which has been ignored before;
+ this allows "git add -p" to also show the whitespace problems to
+ the end user.
+
+ * Some codepaths were given a repository instance as a parameter to
+ work in the repository, but passed the_repository instance to its
+ callees, which has been cleaned up (somewhat).
+
+ * Memory footprint and performance of "git name-rev" has been
+ improved.
+
+
+Fixes since v2.25
+-----------------
+
+ * "git commit" gives output similar to "git status" when there is
+ nothing to commit, but without honoring the advise.statusHints
+ configuration variable, which has been corrected.
+
+ * has_object_file() said "no" given an object registered to the
+ system via pretend_object_file(), making it inconsistent with
+ read_object_file(), causing lazy fetch to attempt fetching an
+ empty tree from promisor remotes.
+
+ * Complete an update to tutorial that encourages "git switch" over
+ "git checkout" that was done only half-way.
+
+ * C pedantry ;-) fix.
+
+ * The code that tries to skip over the entries for the paths in a
+ single directory using the cache-tree was not careful enough
+ against corrupt index file.
+
+ * Reduce unnecessary round-trip when running "ls-remote" over the
+ stateless RPC mechanism.
+
+ * "git restore --staged" did not correctly update the cache-tree
+ structure, resulting in bogus trees to be written afterwards, which
+ has been corrected.
+
+ * The code recently added to move to the entry beyond the ones in the
+ same directory in the index in the sparse-cone mode did not count
+ the number of entries to skip over incorrectly, which has been
+ corrected.
+
+ * Rendering by "git log --graph" of ancestry lines leading to a merge
+ commit were made suboptimal to waste vertical space a bit with a
+ recent update, which has been corrected.
+
+ * Work around test breakages caused by custom regex engine used in
+ libasan, when address sanitizer is used with more recent versions
+ of gcc and clang.
+
+ * Minor bugfixes to "git add -i" that has recently been rewritten in C.
+ (merge 849e43cc18 js/builtin-add-i-cmds later to maint).
+
+ * "git fetch --refmap=" option has got a better documentation.
+
+ * "git checkout X" did not correctly fail when X is not a local
+ branch but could name more than one remote-tracking branches
+ (i.e. to be dwimmed as the starting point to create a corresponding
+ local branch), which has been corrected.
+ (merge fa74180d08 am/checkout-file-and-ref-ref-ambiguity later to maint).
+
+ * Corner case bugs in "git clean" that stems from a (necessarily for
+ performance reasons) awkward calling convention in the directory
+ enumeration API has been corrected.
+
+ * A fetch that is told to recursively fetch updates in submodules
+ inevitably produces reams of output, and it becomes hard to spot
+ error messages. The command has been taught to enumerate
+ submodules that had errors at the end of the operation.
+ (merge 0222540827 es/fetch-show-failed-submodules-atend later to maint).
+
+ * The "--recurse-submodules" option of various subcommands did not
+ work well when run in an alternate worktree, which has been
+ corrected.
+ (merge a9472afb63 pb/recurse-submodule-in-worktree-fix later to maint).
+
+ * Futureproofing a test not to depend on the current implementation
+ detail.
+
+ * Running "git rm" on a submodule failed unnecessarily when
+ .gitmodules is only cache-dirty, which has been corrected.
+ (merge 7edee32985 dt/submodule-rm-with-stale-cache later to maint).
+
+ * C pedantry ;-) fix.
+ (merge cf82bff73f jk/clang-sanitizer-fixes later to maint).
+
+ * "git grep --no-index" should not get affected by the contents of
+ the .gitmodules file but when "--recurse-submodules" is given or
+ the "submodule.recurse" variable is set, it did. Now these
+ settings are ignored in the "--no-index" mode.
+
+ * Technical details of the bundle format has been documented.
+
+ * Unhelpful warning messages during documentation build have been squelched.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" identifies existing commits in its todo file with
+ their abbreviated object name, which could become ambigous as it
+ goes to create new commits, and has a mechanism to avoid ambiguity
+ in the main part of its execution. A few other cases however were
+ not covered by the protection against ambiguity, which has been
+ corrected.
+ (merge 26027625dd js/rebase-i-with-colliding-hash later to maint).
+
+ * Allow the rebase.missingCommitsCheck configuration to kick in when
+ "rebase --edit-todo" and "rebase --continue" restarts the procedure.
+ (merge 5a5445d878 ag/edit-todo-drop-check later to maint).
+
+ * The way "git submodule status" reports an initialized but not yet
+ populated submodule has not been reimplemented correctly when a
+ part of the "git submodule" command was rewritten in C, which has
+ been corrected.
+ (merge f38c92452d pk/status-of-uncloned-submodule later to maint).
