"git status" now omits the prefix to make its output a comment in a
commit log editor, which is not necessary for human consumption.
We may want to tighten the output to omit unnecessary trailing blank
lines, but that does not have to be in the scope of this series.
* mm/status-without-comment-char:
t7508: avoid non-portable sed expression
status: add missing blank line after list of "other" files
tests: don't set status.displayCommentPrefix file-wide
status: disable display of '#' comment prefix by default
submodule summary: ignore --for-status option
wt-status: use argv_array API
builtin/stripspace.c: fix broken indentation

Make "foo^{tag}" to peel a tag to itself, i.e. no-op., and fail if
"foo" is not a tag. "git rev-parse --verify v1.0^{tag}" would be a
more convenient way to say "test $(git cat-file -t v1.0) = tag".

We liberally use "committish" and "commit-ish" (and "treeish" and

When the user types "git diff" outside a working tree, thinking he
is inside one, the current error message that is a single-liner
"usage: git diff --no-index <path> <path>" may not be sufficient to

error message when we fell into the "--no-index" mode without an
explicit command line option to instruct us to do so.

Allow a safer "rewind of the remote tip" push than blind "--force",
by requiring that the overwritten remote ref to be unchanged since
the new history to replace it was prepared.
The machinery is more or less ready. The "--force" option is again
the big red button to override any safety, thanks to J6t's sanity
(the original round allowed --lockref to defeat --force).
The logic to choose the default implemented here is fragile
(e.g. "git fetch" after seeing a failure will update the
remote-tracking branch and will make the next "push" pass,
defeating the safety pretty easily). It is suitable only for the
simplest workflows, and it may hurt users more than it helps them.

Allow fetch.prune and remote.*.prune configuration variables to be set,
and "git fetch" to behave as if "--prune" is given.
"git fetch" that honors remote.*.prune is fine, but I wonder if we
should somehow make "git push" aware of it as well. Perhaps
remote.*.prune should not be just a boolean, but a 4-way "none",
"push", "fetch", "both"?
* ms/fetch-prune-configuration:
fetch: make --prune configurable

AsciiDoc's "link" is supposed to create hyperlinks for HTML output, so
prefer a "link" to point to an HTML file instead of a text file if an HTML
version of the file is being generated. For RelNotes, keep pointing to
text files as no equivalent HTML files are generated.
If appropriate, also update the link description to not contain the linked
file's extension.

Historically, "git status" needed to prefix each output line with '#' so
that the output could be added as comment to the commit message. This
prefix comment has no real purpose when "git status" is ran from the
command-line, and this may distract users from the real content.
Disable this prefix comment by default, and make it re-activable for
users needing backward compatibility with status.displayCommentPrefix.
Obviously, "git commit" ignores status.displayCommentPrefix and keeps the
comment unconditionnaly when writing to COMMIT_EDITMSG (but not when
writing to stdout for an error message or with --dry-run).

If a user is working on master, and has merged in their feature branch, but now
has to "git pull" because master moved, with pull.rebase their feature branch
will be flattened into master.
This is because "git pull" currently does not know about rebase's preserve
merges flag, which would avoid this behavior, as it would instead replay just
the merge commit of the feature branch onto the new master, and not replay each
individual commit in the feature branch.
Add a --rebase=preserve option, which will pass along --preserve-merges to
rebase.
Also add 'preserve' to the allowed values for the pull.rebase config setting.

existing users (there may be none).

Complete the <rev>^{<type>} family of object descriptors by having
<rev>^{tag} dereference <rev> until a tag object is found (or fail if
unable).
At first glance this may not seem very useful, as commits, trees, and
blobs cannot be peeled to a tag, and a tag would just peel to itself.
However, this can be used to ensure that <rev> names a tag object:
$ git rev-parse --verify v1.8.4^{tag}
04f013dc38d7512eadb915eba22efc414f18b869
$ git rev-parse --verify master^{tag}
error: master^{tag}: expected tag type, but the object dereferences to tree type
fatal: Needed a single revision
Users can already ensure that <rev> is a tag object by checking the
output of 'git cat-file -t <rev>', but:
* users may expect <rev>^{tag} to exist given that <rev>^{commit},
<rev>^{tree}, and <rev>^{blob} all exist
* this syntax is more convenient/natural in some circumstances

Since 664059fb (transport-helper: update remote helper namespace,
2013-04-17), a 'push' operation on a remote helper updates the
private ref by default. This is often a good thing, but it can also
be desirable to disable this update to force the next 'pull' to
re-import the pushed revisions.
Allow remote-helpers to disable the automatic update by introducing a new
capability.
