The way "git worktree prune" worked internally has been simplified,

different place.

Git repository. The command has been taught to complain about
extra and unwanted arguments on its command line instead in such a
case.

"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.

filter-branch: return 2 when nothing to rewrite
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.

Add a tlsv1.3 option to http.sslVersion in addition to the existing
tlsv1.[012] options. libcurl has supported this since 7.52.0.
This requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 with TLS 1.3 enabled or curl built with
recent versions of NSS or BoringSSL as the TLS backend.

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.

Change the "Repository format extension" to accurately describe what
happens with different versions of Git when they encounter NewHash
repositories, instead of only saying what happens with versions v2.7.0
and later.
See ab9cb76f66 ("Repository format version check.", 2005-11-25) and
00a09d57eb ("introduce "extensions" form of
core.repositoryformatversion", 2015-06-23) for the relevant changes to
the setup code where these variables are checked.

The http tracing code, often used to debug connection issues,
learned to redact potentially sensitive information from its output
so that it can be more safely sharable.

The transfer.fsckobjects configuration tells "git fetch" to
validate the data and connected-ness of objects in the received
pack; the code to perform this check has been taught about the
narrow clone's convention that missing objects that are reachable
from objects in a pack that came from a promissor remote is OK.
* jt/transfer-fsck-with-promissor:
fetch-pack: do not check links for partial fetch
index-pack: support checking objects but not links
In a way similar to how "git tag" learned to honor the pager
setting only in the list mode, "git config" learned to ignore the
pager setting when it is used for setting values (i.e. when the
purpose of the operation is not to "show").
* ma/config-page-only-in-list-mode:
config: change default of `pager.config` to "on"
config: respect `pager.config` in list/get-mode only
t7006: add tests for how git config paginates
The gitattributes documentation claims that the pattern
rules are largely the same as for gitignore. However, the
rules for recursion are different.
In an ideal world, we would make them the same (if for
nothing else than consistency and simplicity), but that
would create backwards compatibility issues. For some
discussion, see this thread:
https://public-inbox.org/git/slrnkldd3g.1l4.jan@majutsushi.net/
But let's at least document the differences instead of
actively misleading the user by claiming that they're the
same.

This "link" was a feature in early iterations of multiple worktree
functionality for some reason it was dropped [1]. Since nobody creates
this "link", there's no need to check it.
This is mostly used to let the user moves a worktree manually [2]. If
you move a worktree within the same file system, this hard link count
lets us know the worktree is still there even if we don't know where it
is.
We support 'worktree move' now and don't need this anymore.

Using the --state-branch option allows us to perform incremental filtering.
This may lead to having nothing to rewrite in subsequent filtering, so we need
a way to recognize this case.

The index-pack command currently supports the
--check-self-contained-and-connected argument, for internal use only,
that instructs it to only check for broken links and not broken objects.
For partial clones, we need the inverse, so add a --fsck-objects
argument that checks for broken objects and not broken links, also for
internal use only.
This will be used by fetch-pack in a subsequent patch.

"git worktree" learned move and remove subcommands.

"git diff" and friends learned "--compact-summary" that shows the
information usually given with the "--summary" option on the same
line as the diffstat output of the "--stat" option (which saves
vertical space and keeps info on a single path at the same place).

The first usage we give is the original one where, e.g., `git log` is
piped through `git shortlog`. The description that follows reads the
other way round, by first focusing on the general behavior, then ending
with the behavior when reading from stdin.
It is also a tiny bit odd that what is probably the most common usage
and the one a reader is probably looking for is not at the top of the
list. Of course, it is only a two-item list, so it is not _that_ hard to
find... The next commit will add the original usage to the usage string
in builtin/shortlog.c, and it feels more natural to do so below the
most common usage. To avoid being inconsistent, reorder these two
usages here first.
