+What's cooking in git.git (Mar 2014, #01; Tue, 4)
 --------------------------------------------------
 
 Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed with
 '-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
 '+' are in 'next'.
 
-The tip of 'next' has been rewound.  There are healthy number of
-topics in there that have been well-cooked during the 1.9.0
-development cycle that can graduate to 'master' (see the announce in
-http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/242658).
-After they are merged to 'master', I'm planning to go back to the
-list archive to pick up patches I may have missed in the meantime.
+A handful of "GSoC warm-up microprojects" have been queued on 'pu'.
+Thanks for reviewing them.
 
 You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
 of the repositories listed at
 
     http://git-blame.blogspot.com/p/git-public-repositories.html

+* bs/stdio-undef-before-redef (2014-01-31) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2014-02-25 at 77c4b5f)

+
+ Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-01-31
+
+ When we replace broken macros from stdio.h in git-compat-util.h,

+
+ Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-02-06
+
+ All subcommands that take pathspecs mishandled an in-tree symbolic
+ link when given it as a full path from the root (which arguably is
+ a sick way to use pathspecs).  "git ls-files -s $(pwd)/RelNotes" in
+ our tree is an easy reproduction recipe.
+
+
+* nd/diff-quiet-stat-dirty (2014-02-24) 2 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2014-02-25 at 7cad1d3)

+ + test: rename http fetch and push test files
+ + tests: auto-set LIB_HTTPD_PORT from test name
+ (this branch is tangled with jk/test-ports.)
+
+ Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-02-13
+
+ Attempting to deepen a shallow repository by fetching over smart
+ HTTP transport failed in the protocol exchange, when no-done
+ extension was used.  The fetching side waited for the list of
+ shallow boundary commits after the sending end stopped talking to
+ it.
+

+* nd/reset-intent-to-add (2014-02-05) 1 commit
+  (merged to 'next' on 2014-02-25 at 0c48245)

+
+ Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-01-31
+
+ Allow "git cmd path/", when the 'path' is where a submodule is
+ bound to the top-level working tree, to match 'path', despite the
+ extra and unnecessary trailing slash.

+  (merged to 'next' on 2014-02-25 at 0baefa2)
+ + test the commit.gpgsign config option
+ + commit-tree: add and document --no-gpg-sign
+ + commit-tree: add the commit.gpgsign option to sign all commits
+
+ Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-01-03
+
+ Introduce commit.gpgsign configuration variable to force every
+ commit to be GPG signed.  The variable cannot be overriden from the
+ command line of some of the commands that create commits except for
+ "git commit" and "git commit-tree", but I am not convinced that it
+ is a good idea to sprinkle support for --no-gpg-sign everywhere,
+ which in turn means that this configuration variable may not be
+ such a good idea.
+
+
+* wk/submodule-on-branch (2014-02-24) 4 commits
+  (merged to 'next' on 2014-02-25 at c6d9fef)
+ + Documentation: describe 'submodule update --remote' use case
+ + submodule: explicit local branch creation in module_clone
+ + submodule: document module_clone arguments in comments
+ + submodule: make 'checkout' update_module mode more explicit
+
+ Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-02-06
+
+ Make sure 'submodule update' modes that do not detach HEADs can
+ be used more pleasantly by checking out a concrete branch when
+ cloning them to prime the well.

+* jc/stash-pop-not-popped (2014-02-26) 1 commit
+ - stash pop: mention we did not drop the stash upon failing to apply
 
- Instead of allowing an <img> to be shown in whatever size, force
- scaling it to fit on the page with max-height/max-width css style
- attributes.
+ "stash pop", upon failing to apply the stash, refrains from

+
+ Updaste implementation of skip_prefix() to scan only once; given

+ - shallow: automatically clean up shallow tempfiles
+ - shallow: use stat_validity to check for up-to-date file
 
- "git difftool" misbehaved when the repository is bound to the
- working tree with the ".git file" mechanism, where a textual

- + pack-objects: split add_object_entry
- + pack-bitmap: add support for bitmap indexes
- + documentation: add documentation for the bitmap format

- Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-02-13
-
- Borrow the bitmap index into packfiles from JGit to speed up
- enumeration of objects involved in a commit range without having to
- fully traverse the history.
-
- Will merge to 'master'.

- Originally merged to 'next' on 2014-01-03
-
- Introduce commit.gpgsign configuration variable to force every
- commit to be GPG signed.  The variable cannot be overriden from the
- command line of some of the commands that create commits except for
- "git commit" and "git commit-tree", but I am not convinced that it
- is a good idea to sprinkle support for --no-gpg-sign everywhere,
- which in turn means that this configuration variable may not be
- such a good idea.

- Will merge to 'master'.
