In the 2.18 cycle, directory rename detection was merged, then reverted,
then reworked in such a way to fix another prominent bug in addition to
the original problem causing it to be reverted. When the reworked series
was merged, we ended up with two nearly duplicate release notes. Remove
the second copy, but preserve the information about the extra bug fix.

When a short hexadecimal string is used to name an object but there
are multiple objects that share the string as the prefix of their
names, the code lists these ambiguous candidates in a help message.
These object names are now sorted according to their types for
easier eyeballing.
* ab/get-short-oid:
get_short_oid: sort ambiguous objects by type, then SHA-1
sha1-name.c: move around the collect_ambiguous() function
git-p4: change "commitish" typo to "committish"
sha1-array.h: align function arguments
sha1-name.c: remove stray newline

"git blame" learns to unhighlight uninteresting metadata from the
originating commit on lines that are the same as the previous one,
and also paint lines in different colors depending on the age of
the commit.

builtin/blame: highlight recently changed lines
builtin/blame: dim uninteresting metadata lines

"git submodule update" and "git submodule add" supported the
"--reference" option to borrow objects from a neighbouring local
repository like "git clone" does, but lacked the more recent
invention "--dissociate". Also "git submodule add" has been taught
to take the "--progress" option.
* cf/submodule-progress-dissociate:
submodule: add --dissociate option to add/update commands
submodule: add --progress option to add command
submodule: clean up substitutions in script

"git status" learned to honor a new status.renames configuration to
skip rename detection, which could be useful for those who want to
do so without disabling the default rename detection done by the
"git diff" command.
* bp/status-rename-config:

With merge.renames configuration set to false, the recursive merge
strategy can be told not to spend cycles trying to find renamed

After performing a merge that has conflicts git status will, by default,
attempt to detect renames which causes many objects to be examined. In a
virtualized repo, those objects do not exist locally so the rename logic
triggers them to be fetched from the server. This results in the status call
taking hours to complete on very large repos vs seconds with this patch.
Add a new config status.renames setting to enable turning off rename
detection during status and commit. This setting will default to the value
of diff.renames.
Add a new config status.renamelimit setting to to enable bounding the time
spent finding out inexact renames during status and commit. This setting
will default to the value of diff.renamelimit.
Add --no-renames command line option to status that enables overriding the
config setting from the command line. Add --find-renames[=<n>] command line
option to status that enables detecting renames and optionally setting the
similarity index.

The current document mentions OBJ_* constants without their actual
values. A git developer would know these are from cache.h but that's
not very friendly to a person who wants to read this file to implement
a pack file parser.
Similarly, the deltified representation is not documented at all (the
"document" is basically patch-delta.c). Translate that C code to
English with a bit more about what ofs-delta and ref-delta mean.

Change the output emitted when an ambiguous object is encountered so
that we show tags first, then commits, followed by trees, and finally
blobs. Within each type we show objects in hashcmp() order. Before
this change the objects were only ordered by hashcmp().
The reason for doing this is that the output looks better as a result,
e.g. the v2.17.0 tag before this change on "git show e8f2" would
display:
hint: The candidates are:
hint: e8f2093055 tree
hint: e8f21caf94 commit 2013-06-24 - bash prompt: print unique detached HEAD abbreviated object name
hint: e8f21d02f7 blob
hint: e8f21d577c blob
hint: e8f25a3a50 tree
hint: e8f26250fa commit 2017-02-03 - Merge pull request #996 from jeffhostetler/jeffhostetler/register_rename_src
hint: e8f2650052 tag v2.17.0
hint: e8f2867228 blob
hint: e8f28d537c tree
hint: e8f2a35526 blob
hint: e8f2bc0c06 commit 2015-05-10 - Documentation: note behavior for multiple remote.url entries
hint: e8f2cf6ec0 tree
Now we'll instead show:
hint: e8f2650052 tag v2.17.0
hint: e8f21caf94 commit 2013-06-24 - bash prompt: print unique detached HEAD abbreviated object name
hint: e8f26250fa commit 2017-02-03 - Merge pull request #996 from jeffhostetler/jeffhostetler/register_rename_src
hint: e8f2bc0c06 commit 2015-05-10 - Documentation: note behavior for multiple remote.url entries
hint: e8f2093055 tree
hint: e8f25a3a50 tree
hint: e8f28d537c tree
hint: e8f2cf6ec0 tree
hint: e8f21d02f7 blob
hint: e8f21d577c blob
hint: e8f2867228 blob
hint: e8f2a35526 blob
Since we show the commit data in the output that's nicely aligned once
we sort by object type. The decision to show tags before commits is
pretty arbitrary. I don't want to order by object_type since there
tags come last after blobs, which doesn't make sense if we want to
show the most important things first.
I could display them after commits, but it's much less likely that
we'll display a tag, so if there is one it makes sense to show it
prominently at the top.
A note on the implementation: Derrick rightly pointed out[1] that
we're bending over backwards here in get_short_oid() to first
de-duplicate the list, and then emit it, but could simply do it in one
step.
The reason for that is that oid_array_for_each_unique() doesn't
actually require that the array be sorted by oid_array_sort(), it just
needs to be sorted in some order that guarantees that all objects with
the same ID are adjacent to one another, which (barring a hash
collision, which'll be someone else's problem) the sort_ambiguous()
function does.
I agree that would be simpler for this code, and had forgotten why I
initially wrote it like this[2]. But on further reflection I think
it's better to do more work here just so we're not underhandedly using
the oid-array API where we lie about the list being sorted. That would
break any subsequent use of oid_array_lookup() in subtle ways.
I could get around that by hacking the API itself to support this
use-case and documenting it, which I did as a WIP patch in [3], but I
think it's too much code smell just for this one call site. It's
simpler for the API to just introduce a oid_array_for_each() function
to eagerly spew out the list without sorting or de-duplication, and
then do the de-duplication and sorting in two passes.

In commit dc8441fdb ("config: don't implicitly use gitdir or commondir",
2017-06-14) the function git_config_with_options was renamed to
config_with_options to better reflect the fact that it does not access
the git global config or the repo config by default.
However Documentation/technical/api-config.txt still refers to the
previous name, fix that.
While at it also update the documentation about the extra parameters,
because they too changed since the initial definition.
