Teach git-commit-graph to read commits from stdin when the
--stdin-commits flag is specified. Commits reachable from these
commits are added to the graph. This is a much faster way to construct
the graph than inspecting all packed objects, but is restricted to
known tips.
For the Linux repository, 700,000+ commits were added to the graph
file starting from 'master' in 7-9 seconds, depending on the number
of packfiles in the repo (1, 24, or 120).

The commit graph feature is controlled by the new core.commitGraph config
setting. This defaults to 0, so the feature is opt-in.
The intention of core.commitGraph is that a user can always stop checking
for or parsing commit graph files if core.commitGraph=0.

The way "git worktree prune" worked internally has been simplified,
by assuming how "git worktree move" moves an existing worktree to a
different place.
* nd/worktree-prune:
worktree prune: improve prune logic when worktree is moved
worktree: delete dead code
gc.txt: more details about what gc does
"git shortlog cruft" aborted with a BUG message when run outside a
Git repository. The command has been taught to complain about
extra and unwanted arguments on its command line instead in such a
case.
* ma/shortlog-revparse:
shortlog: disallow left-over arguments outside repo
shortlog: add usage-string for stdin-reading
git-shortlog.txt: reorder usages
"git filter-branch" learned to use a different exit code to allow
the callers to tell the case where there was no new commits to
rewrite from other error cases.
* ml/filter-branch-no-op-error:
filter-branch: return 2 when nothing to rewrite
The command-line prompt in the "EXAMPLES" section is "$", however,
examples in the 'git worktree list' section (oddly) use "S" as a

There is no need for use to manually call ‘git credential’ especially
as the interface isn’t super user-friendly and a bit confusing. ‘git
send-email’ will do that for them at the first execution and if the
password matches, it will be saved in the store.
Simplify the documentaion so it dosn’t include the ‘git credential’
invocation (which was incorrect anyway as it should use ‘approve’
instead of ‘fill’) and instead just mentions that credentials helper
must be set up.

The email address in --authors-file and --authors-prog can be empty but
git-svn translated it into a fictional email address in the form
jondoe <jondoe@6aafaa21e0fb4338a68ab372a049893d>
containing the SVN repository UUID. Now git-svn behaves like git-commit:
If the email is *explicitly* set to the empty string using '<>', the
commit does not contain an email address, only the name:
jondoe <>
Allowing to remove the email address *intentionally* prevents automatic
systems from sending emails to those fictional addresses and avoids
cluttering the log output with unnecessary stuff.

In 36db1eddf9 ("git-svn: add --authors-prog option", 2009-05-14) the path
to authors-prog was made absolute because git-svn changes the current
directory in some situations. This makes sense if the program is part of
the repository but prevents searching via $PATH.
The old behaviour is still retained, but if the file does not exists, then
authors-prog is searched for in $PATH as any other command.

Add document specifying the binary format for commit graphs. This
format allows for:
* New versions.
* New hash functions and hash lengths.
* Optional extensions.
Basic header information is followed by a binary table of contents
into "chunks" that include:
* An ordered list of commit object IDs.
* A 256-entry fanout into that list of OIDs.
* A list of metadata for the commits.
* A list of "large edges" to enable octopus merges.
The format automatically includes two parent positions for every
commit. This favors speed over space, since using only one position
per commit would cause an extra level of indirection for every merge
commit. (Octopus merges suffer from this indirection, but they are
very rare.)

When upload-pack gained partial clone support (v2.17.0-rc0~132^2~12,
2017-12-08), it was guarded by the uploadpack.allowFilter config item
to allow server operators to control when they start supporting it.
That config item didn't go far enough, though: it controls whether the
'filter' capability is advertised, but if a (custom) client ignores
the capability advertisement and passes a filter specification anyway,
the server would handle that despite allowFilter being false.
This is particularly significant if a security bug is discovered in
this new experimental partial clone code. Installations without
uploadpack.allowFilter ought not to be affected since they don't
intend to support partial clone, but they would be swept up into being
vulnerable.
Simplify and limit the attack surface by making uploadpack.allowFilter
disable the feature, not just the advertisement of it.

Allow --signoff to be used with --interactive and --merge. In
interactive mode only commits marked to be picked, edited or reworded
will be signed off.
The main motivation for this patch was to allow one to run 'git rebase
--exec "make check" --signoff' which is useful when preparing a patch
series for publication and is more convenient than doing the signoff
with another --exec command.
This change also allows --root without --onto to work with --signoff
as well (--root with --onto was already supported).

In 1ada5020b3 ("stash: use stash_push for no verb form", 2017-02-28),
when the pathspec argument was introduced in 'git stash', that was also
documented. However I forgot to remove an extra square bracket after
the '--message' argument, even though the square bracket should have
been after the pathspec argument (where it was also added).
Remove the extra square bracket after the '--message' argument, to show
that the pathspec argument should be used with the 'push' verb.
While the pathspec argument can be used without the push verb, that's a
special case described later in the man page, and removing the first extra
square bracket instead of the second one makes the synopis easier to
understand.

Attempt to clarify what the SHAttered attack means in practice for
Git. The previous version of the text made no mention whatsoever of
Git already having a mitigation for this specific attack, which the
SHAttered researchers claim will detect cryptanalytic collision
attacks.
I may have gotten some of the nuances wrong, but as far as I know this
new text accurately summarizes the current situation with SHA-1 in
git. I.e. git doesn't really use SHA-1 anymore, it uses
Hardened-SHA-1 (they just so happen to produce the same outputs
99.99999999999...% of the time).
Thus the previous text was incorrect in asserting that:
[...]As a result [of SHAttered], SHA-1 cannot be considered
cryptographically secure any more[...]
That's not the case. We have a mitigation against SHAttered, *however*
we consider it prudent to move to work towards a NewHash should future
vulnerabilities in either SHA-1 or Hardened-SHA-1 emerge.
