Merge branch 'sa/replay-revert'

2026-04-03T20:01:09Z

"git replay" (experimental) learns, in addition to "pick" and "replay", a new operating mode "revert". * sa/replay-revert: replay: add --revert mode to reverse commit changes sequencer: extract revert message formatting into shared function

sequencer: extract revert message formatting into shared function

2026-03-25T21:20:57Z

The logic for formatting revert commit messages (handling "Revert" and "Reapply" cases, appending "This reverts commit .", and handling merge-parent references) currently lives inline in do_pick_commit(). The upcoming replay --revert mode needs to reuse this logic. Extract all of this into a new sequencer_format_revert_message() function. The function takes a repository, the subject line, commit, parent, a use_commit_reference flag, and the output strbuf. It handles both regular reverts ("Revert """) and revert-of-revert cases ("Reapply """), and uses refer_to_commit() internally to format the commit reference. Update refer_to_commit() to take a struct repository parameter instead of relying on the_repository, and a bool instead of reading from replay_opts directly. This makes it usable from the new shared function without pulling in sequencer-specific state. Signed-off-by: Siddharth Asthana Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'lc/rebase-trailer'

2026-03-19T16:54:56Z

"git rebase" learns "--trailer" command to drive the interpret-trailers machinery. * lc/rebase-trailer: rebase: support --trailer commit, tag: parse --trailer with OPT_STRVEC trailer: append trailers without fork/exec trailer: libify a couple of functions interpret-trailers: refactor create_in_place_tempfile() interpret-trailers: factor trailer rewriting

Merge branch 'ar/run-command-hook-take-2'

2026-03-09T21:36:55Z

Use the hook API to replace ad-hoc invocation of hook scripts via the run_command() API. * ar/run-command-hook-take-2: builtin/receive-pack: avoid spinning no-op sideband async threads receive-pack: convert receive hooks to hook API receive-pack: convert update hooks to new API run-command: poll child input in addition to output hook: add jobs option reference-transaction: use hook API instead of run-command transport: convert pre-push to hook API hook: allow separate std[out|err] streams hook: convert 'post-rewrite' hook in sequencer.c to hook API hook: provide stdin via callback run-command: add stdin callback for parallelization run-command: add helper for pp child states t1800: add hook output stream tests

rebase: support --trailer

2026-03-06T21:02:20Z

Add a new --trailer= option to git rebase to append trailer lines to each rewritten commit message (merge backend only). Because the apply backend does not provide a commit-message filter, reject --trailer when --apply is in effect and require the merge backend instead. This option implies --force-rebase so that fast-forwarded commits are also rewritten. Validate trailer arguments early to avoid starting an interactive rebase with invalid input. Add integration tests covering error paths and trailer insertion across non-interactive and interactive rebases. Signed-off-by: Li Chen Signed-off-by: Phillip Wood Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Merge branch 'ps/commit-list-functions-renamed'

2026-02-13T21:39:25Z

Rename three functions around the commit_list data structure. * ps/commit-list-functions-renamed: commit: rename `free_commit_list()` to conform to coding guidelines commit: rename `reverse_commit_list()` to conform to coding guidelines commit: rename `copy_commit_list()` to conform to coding guidelines

hook: convert 'post-rewrite' hook in sequencer.c to hook API

2026-01-28T23:47:03Z

Replace the custom run-command calls used by post-rewrite with the newer and simpler hook_run_opt(), which does not need to create a custom 'struct child_process' or call find_hook(). Another benefit of using the hook API is that hook_run_opt() handles the SIGPIPE toggle logic.

2026-01-22T00:16:28Z

Remove implicit reliance on the_repository global in the APIs around tree objects and make it explicit which repository to work in. * rs/tree-wo-the-repository: cocci: remove obsolete the_repository rules cocci: convert parse_tree functions to repo_ variants tree: stop using the_repository tree: use repo_parse_tree() path-walk: use repo_parse_tree_gently() pack-bitmap-write: use repo_parse_tree() delta-islands: use repo_parse_tree() bloom: use repo_parse_tree() add-interactive: use repo_parse_tree_indirect() tree: add repo_parse_tree*() environment: move access to core.maxTreeDepth into repo settings

Revert "Merge branch 'ar/run-command-hook'"

2026-01-15T21:02:38Z

This reverts commit f406b8955295d01089ba2baf35eceadff2d11cae, reversing changes made to 1627809eeff75e6ec936fc609e7be46d5eb2fa9e. It seems to have caused a few regressions, two of the three known ones we have proposed solutions for. Let's give ourselves a bit more room to maneuver during the pre-release freeze period and restart once the 2.53 ships.

commit: rename `free_commit_list()` to conform to coding guidelines

2026-01-15T13:32:31Z

Our coding guidelines say that: Functions that operate on `struct S` are named `S_()` and should generally receive a pointer to `struct S` as first parameter. While most of the functions related to `struct commit_list` already follow that naming schema, `free_commit_list()` doesn't. Rename the function to address this and adjust all of its callers. Add a compatibility wrapper for the old function name to ease the transition and avoid any semantic conflicts with in-flight patch series. This wrapper will be removed once Git 2.53 has been released. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
