"diff-highlight" (in contrib/) had a logic to flush its output upon
seeing a blank line but the way it detected a blank line was broken.

"git push" that wants to be atomic and wants to send push
certificate learned not to prepare and sign the push certificate
when it fails the local check (hence due to atomicity it is known
that no certificate is needed).

send-pack: run GPG after atomic push checking
The "unshelve" subcommand of "git p4" used incorrectly used
commit^N where it meant to say commit~N to name the Nth generation
ancestor, which has been corrected.

to instances of the "git fetch" that talk to individual remotes,
which has been corrected.

Update to command line completion (in contrib/)
* dl/complete-format-patch-recent-features:

"git remote set-head" that failed still said something that hints
the operation went through, which was misleading.

There is a logic to estimate how many objects are in the
repository, which is mean to run once per process invocation, but
it ran every time the estimated value was requested.
* jk/dont-count-existing-objects-twice:
packfile: actually set approximate_object_count_valid
"git for-each-ref" and friends that list refs used to allow only
one --merged or --no-merged to filter them; they learned to take
combination of both kind of filtering.

Doc: prefer more specific file name
ref-filter: make internal reachable-filter API more precise
ref-filter: allow merged and no-merged filters
Doc: cover multiple contains/no-contains filters
t3201: test multiple branch filter combinations
The 'meld' backend of the "git mergetool" learned to give the
underlying 'meld' the '--auto-merge' option, which would help
reduce the amount of text that requires manual merging.
* ls/mergetool-meld-auto-merge:
mergetool: allow auto-merge for meld to follow the vim-diff behavior
"git index-pack" learned to resolve deltified objects with greater
parallelism.

format-patch: use 'origin' as start of current-series-range when known
diff-lib: tighten show_interdiff()'s interface
diff: move show_interdiff() from its own file to diff-lib
We try to flush the output from diff-highlight whenever we see a blank
line. That lets you see the output for each commit as soon as it is
generated, even if Git is still chugging away at a diff, or traversing
to find the next commit.
However, our "blank line" match checks length($_). That won't ever be
true, because we haven't chomped the line ending. As a result, we never
flush. Instead, let's use a simple regex which handles line endings in
with the end-of-line marker.
This has been broken since the initial version in 927a13fe87 (contrib:
add diff highlight script, 2011-10-18). Probably nobody noticed because:
- most output is big enough, or comes fast enough, that it flushes
anyway. And it can be difficult to notice the difference between
"show a commit, then pause" and "pause, then show two commits". I
only noticed because I was viewing "git log" output on a repo with a
very slow textconv filter.
- if stdout is going to the terminal (and not another pager like
less), then the flush isn't necessary. So any manual testing would
show it appearing to work.
You can easily see the difference with something like:
echo '* diff=slow' >>.gitattributes
git -c diff.slow.textconv='sleep 1; cat' \
-c pager.log='diff-highlight | less' \
log -p
That should generate one commit every second or so (more if it touches
multiple files), but without this patch it waits for many seconds before
generating several pages of output.

Users frequently have problems where two filenames differ only in case,
causing one of those files to show up consistently as being modified.
Let's add a FAQ entry that explains how to deal with that.
In addition, let's explain another common case where files are
consistently modified, which is when files using a smudge or clean
filter have not been run through that filter. Explain the way to fix
this as well.

A common scenario is for a user to apply a change to one branch and
cherry-pick it into another, then later revert it in the first branch.
This results in the change being present when the two branches are
merged, which is confusing to many users.
We already have documentation for how this works in `git merge`, but it
is clear from the frequency with which this is asked that it's hard to
grasp. We also don't explain to users that they are better off doing a
rebase in this case, which will do what they intended. Let's add an
entry to the FAQ telling users what's happening and advising them to use
rebase here.

In many projects, squash merges are commonly used, primarily to keep a
tidy history in the face of developers who do not use logically
independent, bisectable commits. As common as this is, this tends to
cause significant problems when squash merges are used to merge
long-running branches due to the lack of any new merge bases. Even very
experienced developers may make this mistake, so let's add a FAQ entry
explaining why this is problematic and explaining that regular merge
commits should be used to merge two long-running branches.

The refs update commands can be sent to the server side in two different
ways: GPG-signed or unsigned. We should run these two operations in the
same "Finally, tell the other end!" code block, but they are seperated
by the "Clear the status for each ref" code block. This will result in
a slight performance loss, because the failed atomic push will still
perform unnecessary preparations for shallow advertise and GPG-signed
commands buffers, and user may have to be bothered by the (possible) GPG
passphrase input when there is nothing to sign.
Add a new test case to t5534 to ensure GPG will not be called when the
GPG-signed atomic push fails.
