Documentation for "git commit" was updated to clarify that "commit
-p <paths>" adds to the current contents of the index to come up
with what to commit.

"git clone" of a local repository can be done at the filesystem
level, but the codepath did not check errors while copying and
adjusting the file that lists alternate object stores.

http.emptyauth configuration is a way to allow an empty username to
pass when attempting to authenticate using mechanisms like
Kerberos. We took an unspecified (NULL) username and sent ":"
(i.e. no username, no password) to CURLOPT_USERPWD, but did not do
the same when the username is explicitly set to an empty string.
* dt/http-empty-auth:
http: http.emptyauth should allow empty (not just NULL) usernames
A low-level function verify_packfile() was meant to show errors
that were detected without dying itself, but under some conditions
it didn't and died instead, which has been fixed.
* jk/verify-packfile-gently:
verify_packfile: check pack validity before accessing data
"git worktree", even though it used the default_abbrev setting that
ought to be affected by core.abbrev configuration variable, ignored
the variable setting. The command has been taught to read the
default set of configuration variables to correct this.
* jc/worktree-config:
worktree: honor configuration variables
Codepaths that read from an on-disk loose object were too loose in
validating what they are reading is a proper object file and
sometimes read past the data they read from the disk, which has
been corrected. H/t to Gustavo Grieco for reporting.

The original command line syntax for "git merge", which was "git
merge <msg> HEAD <parent>...", has been deprecated for quite some
time, and "git gui" was the last in-tree user of the syntax. This
is finally fixed, so that we can move forward with the deprecation.

An author name, that spelled a backslash-quoted double quote in the

Almost everybody uses DEFAULT_ABBREV to refer to the default

underlying variable bypassing the macro for no good reason.

The "graph" API used in "git log --graph" miscounted the number of
output columns consumed so far when drawing a padding line, which
has been fixed; this did not affect any existing code as nobody
tried to write anything after the padding on such a line, though.

It is a common mistake to say "git blame --reverse OLD path",
expecting that the command line is dwimmed as if asking how lines
in path in an old revision OLD have survived up to the current
commit.
* jc/blame-reverse:
blame: dwim "blame --reverse OLD" as "blame --reverse OLD.."
blame: improve diagnosis for "--reverse NEW"
The existing "git fetch --depth=<n>" option was hard to use
correctly when making the history of an existing shallow clone
deeper. A new option, "--deepen=<n>", has been added to make this
easier to use. "git clone" also learned "--shallow-since=<date>"
and "--shallow-exclude=<tag>" options to make it easier to specify
"I am interested only in the recent N months worth of history" and
"Give me only the history since that version".

When we started cURL to talk to imap server when a new enough
version of cURL library is available, we forgot to explicitly add

"git pack-objects" in a repository with many packfiles used to
spend a lot of time looking for/at objects in them; the accesses to
the packfiles are now optimized by checking the most-recently-used

"git log rev^..rev" is an often-used revision range specification
to show what was done on a side branch merged at rev. This has
gained a short-hand "rev^-1". In general "rev^-$n" is the same as
"^rev^$n rev", i.e. what has happened on other branches while the
history leading to nth parent was looking the other way.
* vn/revision-shorthand-for-side-branch-log:
revision: new rev^-n shorthand for rev^n..rev
When given an abbreviated object name that is not (or more
realistically, "no longer") unique, we gave a fatal error
"ambiguous argument". This error is now accompanied by hints that
lists the objects that begins with the given prefix. During the
course of development of this new feature, numerous minor bugs were
uncovered and corrected, the most notable one of which is that we
gave "short SHA1 xxxx is ambiguous." twice without good reason.
* jk/ambiguous-short-object-names:
get_short_sha1: make default disambiguation configurable

When we are copying the alternates from the source
repository, if we find a relative path that is too deep for
the source (e.g., "../../../objects" from "/repo.git/objects"),
then normalize_path_copy will report an error and leave
trash in the buffer, which we will add to our new alternates
file. Instead, let's detect the error, print a warning, and
skip copying that alternate.
There's no need to die. The relative path is probably just
broken cruft in the source repo. If it turns out to have
been important for accessing some objects, we rely on other
parts of the clone to detect that, just as they would with a
missing object in the source repo itself (though note that
clones with "-s" are inherently local, which may do fewer
object-quality checks in the first place).

How pathspec is used, with and without --interactive/--patch, is
different. But this is not clear from the document. These changes hint
the user to keep reading (to option #5) instead of stopping at #2 and
assuming --patch/--interactive behaves the same way.
And since all the options listed here always mention how the index is
involved (or not) in the final commit, add that bit for #5 as well. This
"on top of the index" is implied when you head over git-add(1), but if
you just go straight to the "Interactive mode" and not read what git-add
is for, you may miss it.

When using Kerberos authentication with newer versions of libcurl,
CURLOPT_USERPWD must be set to a value, even if it is an empty value.
The value is never sent to the server. Previous versions of libcurl
did not require this variable to be set. One way that some users
express the empty username/password is http://:@gitserver.example.com,
which http.emptyauth was designed to support. Another, equivalent,
URL is http://@gitserver.example.com. The latter leads to a username
of zero-length, rather than a NULL username, but CURLOPT_USERPWD still
needs to be set (if http.emptyauth is set). Do so.

"git init" tried to record core.worktree in the repository's
'config' file when GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable was set and
it was different from where GIT_DIR appears as ".git" at its top,
but the logic was faulty when .git is a "gitdir:" file that points
at the real place, causing trouble in working trees that are
managed by "git worktree". This has been corrected.
