+Git v1.7.6.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6
+------------------
+
+ * Various codepaths that invoked zlib deflate/inflate assumed that these
+ functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on
+ platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected.
+
+ * "git unexecutable" reported that "unexecutable" was not found, even
+ though the actual error was that "unexecutable" was found but did
+ not have a proper she-bang line to be executed.
+
+ * Error exits from $PAGER were silently ignored.
+
+ * "git checkout -b <branch>" was confused when attempting to create a
+ branch whose name ends with "-g" followed by hexadecimal digits,
+ and refused to work.
+
+ * "git checkout -b <branch>" sometimes wrote a bogus reflog entry,
+ causing later "git checkout -" to fail.
+
+ * "git diff --cc" learned to correctly ignore binary files.
+
+ * "git diff -c/--cc" mishandled a deletion that resolves a conflict, and
+ looked in the working tree instead.
+
+ * "git fast-export" forgot to quote pathnames with unsafe characters
+ in its output.
+
+ * "git fetch" over smart-http transport used to abort when the
+ repository was updated between the initial connection and the
+ subsequent object transfer.
+
+ * "git fetch" did not recurse into submodules in subdirectories.
+
+ * "git ls-tree" did not error out when asked to show a corrupt tree.
+
+ * "git pull" without any argument left an extra whitespace after the
+ command name in its reflog.
+
+ * "git push --quiet" was not really quiet.
+
+ * "git rebase -i -p" incorrectly dropped commits from side branches.
+
+ * "git reset [<commit>] paths..." did not reset the index entry correctly
+ for unmerged paths.
+
+ * "git submodule add" did not allow a relative repository path when
+ the superproject did not have any default remote url.
+
+ * "git submodule foreach" failed to correctly give the standard input to
+ the user-supplied command it invoked.
+
+ * submodules that the user has never showed interest in by running
+ "git submodule init" was incorrectly marked as interesting by "git
+ submodule sync".
+
+ * "git submodule update --quiet" was not really quiet.
+
+ * "git tag -l <glob>..." did not take multiple glob patterns from the
+ command line.

+Git v1.7.6.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.1
+--------------------
+
+ * v1.7.6.1 broke "git push --quiet"; it used to be a no-op against an old
+ version of Git running on the other end, but v1.7.6.1 made it abort.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.6.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.2
+--------------------
+
+ * "git -c var=value subcmd" misparsed the custom configuration when
+ value contained an equal sign.
+
+ * "git fetch" had a major performance regression, wasting many
+ needless cycles in a repository where there is no submodules
+ present. This was especially bad, when there were many refs.
+
+ * "git reflog $refname" did not default to the "show" subcommand as
+ the documentation advertised the command to do.
+
+ * "git reset" did not leave meaningful log message in the reflog.
+
+ * "git status --ignored" did not show ignored items when there is no
+ untracked items.
+
+ * "git tag --contains $commit" was unnecessarily inefficient.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.6.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6.3
+--------------------
+
+ * The error reporting logic of "git am" when the command is fed a file
+ whose mail-storage format is unknown was fixed.
+
+ * "git branch --set-upstream @{-1} foo" did not expand @{-1} correctly.
+
+ * "git check-ref-format --print" used to parrot a candidate string that
+ began with a slash (e.g. /refs/heads/master) without stripping it, to make
+ the result a suitably normalized string the caller can append to "$GIT_DIR/".
+
+ * "git clone" failed to clone locally from a ".git" file that itself
+ is not a directory but is a pointer to one.
+
+ * "git clone" from a local repository that borrows from another
+ object store using a relative path in its objects/info/alternates
+ file did not adjust the alternates in the resulting repository.
+
+ * "git describe --dirty" did not refresh the index before checking the
+ state of the working tree files.
+
+ * "git ls-files ../$path" that is run from a subdirectory reported errors
+ incorrectly when there is no such path that matches the given pathspec.
+
+ * "git mergetool" could loop forever prompting when nothing can be read
+ from the standard input.
+
+Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.

* "git log" and friends learned a new "--notes" option to replace the
"--show-notes" option. Unlike "--show-notes", "--notes=<ref>" does
not imply showing the default notes.
* p4-import (from contrib) learned a new option --preserve-user.
+ * "git read-tree -m" learned "--dry-run" option that reports if a merge
+ would fail without touching the index nor the working tree.
+
* "git rebase" that does not specify on top of which branch to rebase
the current branch now uses @{upstream} of the current branch.

* "git rev-list --count" used with "--cherry-mark" counts the cherry-picked
commits separately, producing more a useful output.
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.5.X maintenance track are
included in this release.

+Git v1.7.7 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.7.6
+--------------------
+
+ * The scripting part of the codebase is getting prepared for i18n/l10n.
+
+ * Interix, Cygwin and Minix ports got updated.
+
+ * Various updates to git-p4 (in contrib/), fast-import, and git-svn.
+
+ * Gitweb learned to read from /etc/gitweb-common.conf when it exists,
+ before reading from gitweb_config.perl or from /etc/gitweb.conf
+ (this last one is read only when per-repository gitweb_config.perl
+ does not exist).
+
+ * Various codepaths that invoked zlib deflate/inflate assumed that these
+ functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on
+ platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected.
+
+ * Git now recognizes loose objects written by other implementations that
+ use a non-standard window size for zlib deflation (e.g. Agit running on
+ Android with 4kb window). We used to reject anything that was not
+ deflated with 32kb window.
+
+ * Interaction between the use of pager and coloring of the output has
+ been improved, especially when a command that is not built-in was
+ involved.
+
+ * "git am" learned to pass the "--exclude=<path>" option through to underlying
+ "git apply".
+
+ * You can now feed many empty lines before feeding an mbox file to
+ "git am".
+
+ * "git archive" can be told to pass the output to gzip compression and
+ produce "archive.tar.gz".
+
+ * "git bisect" can be used in a bare repository (provided that the test
+ you perform per each iteration does not need a working tree, of
+ course).
+
+ * The length of abbreviated object names in "git branch -v" output
+ now honors the core.abbrev configuration variable.
+
+ * "git check-attr" can take relative paths from the command line.
+
+ * "git check-attr" learned an "--all" option to list the attributes for a
+ given path.
+
+ * "git checkout" (both the code to update the files upon checking out a
+ different branch and the code to checkout a specific set of files) learned
+ to stream the data from object store when possible, without having to
+ read the entire contents of a file into memory first. An earlier round
+ of this code that is not in any released version had a large leak but
+ now it has been plugged.
+
+ * "git clone" can now take a "--config key=value" option to set the
+ repository configuration options that affect the initial checkout.
+
+ * "git commit <paths>..." now lets you feed relative pathspecs that
+ refer to outside your current subdirectory.
+
+ * "git diff --stat" learned a --stat-count option to limit the output of
+ a diffstat report.
+
+ * "git diff" learned a "--histogram" option to use a different diff
+ generation machinery stolen from jgit, which might give better
+ performance.
+
+ * "git diff" had a weird worst case behaviour that can be triggered
+ when comparing files with potentially many places that could match.
+
+ * "git fetch", "git push" and friends no longer show connection
+ errors for addresses that couldn't be connected to when at least one
+ address succeeds (this is arguably a regression but a deliberate
+ one).
+
+ * "git grep" learned "--break" and "--heading" options, to let users mimic
+ the output format of "ack".
+
+ * "git grep" learned a "-W" option that shows wider context using the same
+ logic used by "git diff" to determine the hunk header.
+
+ * Invoking the low-level "git http-fetch" without "-a" option (which
+ git itself never did---normal users should not have to worry about
+ this) is now deprecated.
+
+ * The "--decorate" option to "git log" and its family learned to
+ highlight grafted and replaced commits.
+
+ * "git rebase master topci" no longer spews usage hints after giving
+ the "fatal: no such branch: topci" error message.
+
+ * The recursive merge strategy implementation got a fairly large
+ fix for many corner cases that may rarely happen in real world
+ projects (it has been verified that none of the 16000+ merges in
+ the Linux kernel history back to v2.6.12 is affected with the
+ corner case bugs this update fixes).
+
+ * "git stash" learned an "--include-untracked option".
+
+ * "git submodule update" used to stop at the first error updating a
+ submodule; it now goes on to update other submodules that can be
+ updated, and reports the ones with errors at the end.
+
+ * "git push" can be told with the "--recurse-submodules=check" option to
+ refuse pushing of the supermodule, if any of its submodules'
+ commits hasn't been pushed out to their remotes.
+
+ * "git upload-pack" and "git receive-pack" learned to pretend that only a
+ subset of the refs exist in a repository. This may help a site to
+ put many tiny repositories into one repository (this would not be
+ useful for larger repositories as repacking would be problematic).
+
+ * "git verify-pack" has been rewritten to use the "index-pack" machinery
+ that is more efficient in reading objects in packfiles.
+
+ * test scripts for gitweb tried to run even when CGI-related perl modules
+ are not installed; they now exit early when the latter are unavailable.
+
+Also contains various documentation updates and minor miscellaneous
+changes.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.7.6
+------------------
+
+Unless otherwise noted, all fixes in the 1.7.6.X maintenance track are
+included in this release.
+
+ * "git branch -m" and "git checkout -b" incorrectly allowed the tip
+ of the branch that is currently checked out updated.

details. If `--remote` is used then only the configuration of
the remote repository takes effect.
+tar.<format>.command::
+ This variable specifies a shell command through which the tar
+ output generated by `git archive` should be piped. The command
+ is executed using the shell with the generated tar file on its
+ standard input, and should produce the final output on its
+ standard output. Any compression-level options will be passed
+ to the command (e.g., "-9"). An output file with the same
+ extension as `<format>` will be use this format if no other
+ format is given.
++
+The "tar.gz" and "tgz" formats are defined automatically and default to
+`gzip -cn`. You may override them with custom commands.
+
+tar.<format>.remote::
+ If true, enable `<format>` for use by remote clients via
+ linkgit:git-upload-archive[1]. Defaults to false for

'git bisect' <subcommand> <options>
DESCRIPTION
on the subcommand:
git bisect help
- git bisect start [<bad> [<good>...]] [--] [<paths>...]
+ git bisect start [--no-checkout] [<bad> [<good>...]] [--] [<paths>...]
git bisect bad [<rev>]
git bisect good [<rev>...]
git bisect skip [(<rev>|<range>)...]
with the status of the real test to let the "git bisect run" command loop
determine the eventual outcome of the bisect session.
+OPTIONS
+-------
+--no-checkout::
++
+Do not checkout the new working tree at each iteration of the bisection
+process. Instead just update a special reference named 'BISECT_HEAD' to make
+it point to the commit that should be tested.
++
+This option may be useful when the test you would perform in each step
+does not require a checked out tree.
++
+If the repository is bare, `--no-checkout` is assumed.
+
EXAMPLES
--------
This shows that you can do without a run script if you write the test
on a single line.
+* Locate a good region of the object graph in a damaged repository
++
+------------
+$ git bisect start HEAD <known-good-commit> [ <boundary-commit> ... ] --no-checkout
+$ git bisect run sh -c '
+ GOOD=$(git for-each-ref "--format=%(objectname)" refs/bisect/good-*) &&
+ git rev-list --objects BISECT_HEAD --not $GOOD >tmp.$$ &&
+ git pack-objects --stdout >/dev/null <tmp.$$
+ rc=$?
+ rm -f tmp.$$
+ test $rc = 0'
+
+------------
++
+In this case, when 'git bisect run' finishes, bisect/bad will refer to a commit that
+has at least one parent whose reachable graph is fully traversable in the sense
+required by 'git pack objects'.
+
+
SEE ALSO
--------
link:git-bisect-lk2009.html[Fighting regressions with git bisect],
--abbrev=<length>::
Alter the sha1's minimum display length in the output listing.
- The default value is 7.
+ The default value is 7 and can be overridden by the `core.abbrev`
+ config option.
--no-abbrev::
Display the full sha1s in the output listing rather than abbreviating them.

`cat-blob`::
Causes fast-import to print a blob in 'cat-file --batch'
format to the file descriptor set with `--cat-blob-fd` or
(``cm@example.com''). `LT` and `GT` are the literal less-than (\x3c)
and greater-than (\x3e) symbols. These are required to delimit
the email address from the other fields in the line. Note that

Examples

+`git push`::
Works like `git push <remote>`, where <remote> is the
current branch's remote (or `origin`, if no remote is
configured for the current branch).
-git push origin::
+`git push origin`::
Without additional configuration, works like
`git push origin :`.
+
the ones in the examples below) can be configured as the default for
`git push origin`.
-git push origin :::
+`git push origin :`::
Push "matching" branches to `origin`. See
<refspec> in the <<OPTIONS,OPTIONS>> section above for a
description of "matching" branches.
-git push origin master::
+`git push origin master`::
Find a ref that matches `master` in the source repository
(most likely, it would find `refs/heads/master`), and update
the same ref (e.g. `refs/heads/master`) in `origin` repository
with it. If `master` did not exist remotely, it would be
created.
-git push origin HEAD::
+`git push origin HEAD`::
A handy way to push the current branch to the same name on the
remote.
-git push origin master:satellite/master dev:satellite/dev::
+`git push origin master:satellite/master dev:satellite/dev`::
Use the source ref that matches `master` (e.g. `refs/heads/master`)
to update the ref that matches `satellite/master` (most probably
`refs/remotes/satellite/master`) in the `origin` repository, then
do the same for `dev` and `satellite/dev`.
-git push origin HEAD:master::
+`git push origin HEAD:master`::
Push the current branch to the remote ref matching `master` in the
`origin` repository. This form is convenient to push the current
branch without thinking about its local name.
-git push origin master:refs/heads/experimental::
+`git push origin master:refs/heads/experimental`::
Create the branch `experimental` in the `origin` repository
by copying the current `master` branch. This form is only
needed to create a new branch or tag in the remote repository when
the local name and the remote name are different; otherwise,
the ref name on its own will work.
-git push origin :experimental::

'git remote-<transport>' <repository> [<URL>]
DESCRIPTION
git, there is no need to re-link git to add a new helper, nor any
need to link the helper with the implementation of git.
-Every helper must support the "capabilities" command, which git will
-use to determine what other commands the helper will accept. Other
-commands generally concern facilities like discovering and updating
-remote refs, transporting objects between the object database and
-the remote repository, and updating the local object store.
-
-Helpers supporting the 'fetch' capability can discover refs from the
-remote repository and transfer objects reachable from those refs to
-the local object store. Helpers supporting the 'push' capability can
-transfer local objects to the remote repository and update remote refs.
+Every helper must support the "capabilities" command, which git
+uses to determine what other commands the helper will accept. Those
+other commands can be used to discover and update remote refs,
+transport objects between the object database and the remote repository,
+and update the local object store.
Git comes with a "curl" family of remote helpers, that handle various
transport protocols, such as 'git-remote-http', 'git-remote-https',
'git-remote-ftp' and 'git-remote-ftps'. They implement the capabilities
'fetch', 'option', and 'push'.
+INPUT FORMAT
+------------
+
+Git sends the remote helper a list of commands on standard input, one
+per line. The first command is always the 'capabilities' command, in
+response to which the remote helper must print a list of the
+capabilities it supports (see below) followed by a blank line. The
+response to the capabilities command determines what commands Git uses
+in the remainder of the command stream.
+
+The command stream is terminated by a blank line. In some cases
+(indicated in the documentation of the relevant commands), this blank
+line is followed by a payload in some other protocol (e.g., the pack
+protocol), while in others it indicates the end of input.
+
+Capabilities
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Each remote helper is expected to support only a subset of commands.
+The operations a helper supports are declared to git in the response
+to the `capabilities` command (see COMMANDS, below).
+
+'option'::
+ For specifying settings like `verbosity` (how much output to
+ write to stderr) and `depth` (how much history is wanted in the
+ case of a shallow clone) that affect how other commands are
+ carried out.
+
+'connect'::
+ For fetching and pushing using git's native packfile protocol
+ that requires a bidirectional, full-duplex connection.
+
+'push'::
+ For listing remote refs and pushing specified objects from the
+ local object store to remote refs.
+
+'fetch'::
+ For listing remote refs and fetching the associated history to
+ the local object store.
+
+'import'::
+ For listing remote refs and fetching the associated history as
+ a fast-import stream.
+
+'refspec' <refspec>::
+ This modifies the 'import' capability, allowing the produced
+ fast-import stream to modify refs in a private namespace
+ instead of writing to refs/heads or refs/remotes directly.
+ It is recommended that all importers providing the 'import'
+ capability use this.
++
+A helper advertising the capability
+`refspec refs/heads/{asterisk}:refs/svn/origin/branches/{asterisk}`
+is saying that, when it is asked to `import refs/heads/topic`, the
+stream it outputs will update the `refs/svn/origin/branches/topic`
+ref.
++
+This capability can be advertised multiple times. The first
+applicable refspec takes precedence. The left-hand of refspecs
+advertised with this capability must cover all refs reported by
+the list command. If no 'refspec' capability is advertised,
+there is an implied `refspec {asterisk}:{asterisk}`.
+
+Capabilities for Pushing
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+'connect'::
+ Can attempt to connect to 'git receive-pack' (for pushing),
+ 'git upload-pack', etc for communication using the
+ packfile protocol.
++
+Supported commands: 'connect'.
+
+'push'::
+ Can discover remote refs and push local commits and the
+ history leading up to them to new or existing remote refs.
++
+Supported commands: 'list for-push', 'push'.
+
+If a helper advertises both 'connect' and 'push', git will use
+'connect' if possible and fall back to 'push' if the helper requests
+so when connecting (see the 'connect' command under COMMANDS).
+
+Capabilities for Fetching
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+'connect'::
+ Can try to connect to 'git upload-pack' (for fetching),
+ 'git receive-pack', etc for communication using the
+ packfile protocol.
++
+Supported commands: 'connect'.
+
+'fetch'::
+ Can discover remote refs and transfer objects reachable from
+ them to the local object store.
++
+Supported commands: 'list', 'fetch'.
+
+'import'::
+ Can discover remote refs and output objects reachable from
+ them as a stream in fast-import format.
++
+Supported commands: 'list', 'import'.
+
+If a helper advertises 'connect', git will use it if possible and
+fall back to another capability if the helper requests so when
+connecting (see the 'connect' command under COMMANDS).
+When choosing between 'fetch' and 'import', git prefers 'fetch'.
+Other frontends may have some other order of preference.
+
+'refspec' <refspec>::
+ This modifies the 'import' capability.
++
+A helper advertising
+`refspec refs/heads/{asterisk}:refs/svn/origin/branches/{asterisk}`
+in its capabilities is saying that, when it handles
+`import refs/heads/topic`, the stream it outputs will update the
+`refs/svn/origin/branches/topic` ref.
++
+This capability can be advertised multiple times. The first
+applicable refspec takes precedence. The left-hand of refspecs
+advertised with this capability must cover all refs reported by
+the list command. If no 'refspec' capability is advertised,
+there is an implied `refspec {asterisk}:{asterisk}`.
+
INVOCATION
----------
it is either the name of a configured remote or a URL. The second
argument specifies a URL; it is usually of the form
'<transport>://<address>', but any arbitrary string is possible.
+The 'GIT_DIR' environment variable is set up for the remote helper
+and can be used to determine where to store additional data or from
+which directory to invoke auxiliary git commands.
When git encounters a URL of the form '<transport>://<address>', where
'<transport>' is a protocol that it cannot handle natively, it
'push' +<src>:<dst>::
Pushes the given local <src> commit or branch to the
remote branch described by <dst>. A batch sequence of
- one or more push commands is terminated with a blank line.
+ one or more 'push' commands is terminated with a blank line
+ (if there is only one reference to push, a single 'push' command
+ is followed by a blank line). For example, the following would
+ be two batches of 'push', the first asking the remote-helper
+ to push the local ref 'master' to the remote ref 'master' and
+ the local 'HEAD' to the remote 'branch', and the second
+ asking to push ref 'foo' to ref 'bar' (forced update requested
+ by the '+').
++
+------------
+push refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master
+push HEAD:refs/heads/branch
+\n
+push +refs/heads/foo:refs/heads/bar
+\n
+------------
+
Zero or more protocol options may be entered after the last 'push'
command, before the batch's terminating blank line.
Especially useful for interoperability with a foreign versioning
system.
+
+Just like 'push', a batch sequence of one or more 'import' is
+terminated with a blank line. For each batch of 'import', the remote
+helper should produce a fast-import stream terminated by a 'done'
+command.
++
Supported if the helper has the "import" capability.
'connect' <service>::
Additional commands may be supported, as may be determined from
capabilities reported by the helper.
-CAPABILITIES
-------------
-
-'fetch'::
-'option'::
-'push'::
-'import'::
-'connect'::
- This helper supports the corresponding command with the same name.
-
-'refspec' 'spec'::
- When using the import command, expect the source ref to have
- been written to the destination ref. The earliest applicable
- refspec takes precedence. For example
- "refs/heads/{asterisk}:refs/svn/origin/branches/{asterisk}" means
- that, after an "import refs/heads/name", the script has written to
- refs/svn/origin/branches/name. If this capability is used at
- all, it must cover all refs reported by the list command; if
- it is not used, it is effectively "{asterisk}:{asterisk}"

'rebase'::
This fetches revisions from the SVN parent of the current HEAD
and rebases the current (uncommitted to SVN) work against it.
Add the given merge information during the dcommit
(e.g. `--mergeinfo="/branches/foo:1-10"`). All svn server versions can
store this information (as a property), and svn clients starting from
- version 1.5 can make use of it. 'git svn' currently does not use it
- and does not set it automatically.
+ version 1.5 can make use of it. To specify merge information from multiple

+gitnamespaces(7)
+================
+
+NAME
+----
+gitnamespaces - Git namespaces
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+GIT_NAMESPACE=<namespace> 'git upload-pack'
+GIT_NAMESPACE=<namespace> 'git receive-pack'
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+Git supports dividing the refs of a single repository into multiple
+namespaces, each of which has its own branches, tags, and HEAD. Git can
+expose each namespace as an independent repository to pull from and push
+to, while sharing the object store, and exposing all the refs to
+operations such as linkgit:git-gc[1].
+
+Storing multiple repositories as namespaces of a single repository
+avoids storing duplicate copies of the same objects, such as when
+storing multiple branches of the same source. The alternates mechanism
+provides similar support for avoiding duplicates, but alternates do not
+prevent duplication between new objects added to the repositories
+without ongoing maintenance, while namespaces do.
+
+To specify a namespace, set the `GIT_NAMESPACE` environment variable to
+the namespace. For each ref namespace, git stores the corresponding
+refs in a directory under `refs/namespaces/`. For example,
+`GIT_NAMESPACE=foo` will store refs under `refs/namespaces/foo/`. You
+can also specify namespaces via the `--namespace` option to
+linkgit:git[1].
+
+Note that namespaces which include a `/` will expand to a hierarchy of
+namespaces; for example, `GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar` will store refs under
+`refs/namespaces/foo/refs/namespaces/bar/`. This makes paths in
+`GIT_NAMESPACE` behave hierarchically, so that cloning with
+`GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar` produces the same result as cloning with
+`GIT_NAMESPACE=foo` and cloning from that repo with `GIT_NAMESPACE=bar`. It
+also avoids ambiguity with strange namespace paths such as `foo/refs/heads/`,
+which could otherwise generate directory/file conflicts within the `refs`
+directory.
+
+linkgit:git-upload-pack[1] and linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] rewrite the
+names of refs as specified by `GIT_NAMESPACE`. git-upload-pack and
+git-receive-pack will ignore all references outside the specified
+namespace.
+
+The smart HTTP server, linkgit:git-http-backend[1], will pass
+GIT_NAMESPACE through to the backend programs; see
+linkgit:git-http-backend[1] for sample configuration to expose
+repository namespaces as repositories.
+
+For a simple local test, you can use linkgit:git-remote-ext[1]:
+
+----------
+git clone ext::'git --namespace=foo %s /tmp/prefixed.git'
+----------
+
+SECURITY
+--------
+
+Anyone with access to any namespace within a repository can potentially
+access objects from any other namespace stored in the same repository.
+You can't directly say "give me object ABCD" if you don't have a ref to
+it, but you can do some other sneaky things like:
+
+. Claiming to push ABCD, at which point the server will optimize out the
+ need for you to actually send it. Now you have a ref to ABCD and can
+ fetch it (claiming not to have it, of course).
+
+. Requesting other refs, claiming that you have ABCD, at which point the
+ server may generate deltas against ABCD.
+
+None of this causes a problem if you only host public repositories, or
+if everyone who may read one namespace may also read everything in every
+other namespace (for instance, if everyone in an organization has read
+permission to every repository).

+Querying All Attributes
+-----------------------
+
+To get the values of all attributes associated with a file:
+
+* Call `git_all_attrs()`, which returns an array of `git_attr_check`
+ structures.
+
+* Iterate over the `git_attr_check` array to examine the attribute
+ names and values. The name of the attribute described by a
+ `git_attr_check` object can be retrieved via
+ `git_attr_name(check[i].attr)`. (Please note that no items will be
+ returned for unset attributes, so `ATTR_UNSET()` will return false
+ for all returned `git_array_check` objects.)
+
+* Free the `git_array_check` array.

+ref iteration API
+=================
+
+
+Iteration of refs is done by using an iterate function which will call a
+callback function for every ref. The callback function has this
+signature:
+
+ int handle_one_ref(const char *refname, const unsigned char *sha1,
+ int flags, void *cb_data);
+
+There are different kinds of iterate functions which all take a
+callback of this type. The callback is then called for each found ref
+until the callback returns nonzero. The returned value is then also
+returned by the iterate function.
+
+Iteration functions
+-------------------
+
+* `head_ref()` just iterates the head ref.
+
+* `for_each_ref()` iterates all refs.
+
+* `for_each_ref_in()` iterates all refs which have a defined prefix and
+ strips that prefix from the passed variable refname.
+
+* `for_each_tag_ref()`, `for_each_branch_ref()`, `for_each_remote_ref()`,
+ `for_each_replace_ref()` iterate refs from the respective area.
+
+* `for_each_glob_ref()` iterates all refs that match the specified glob
+ pattern.
+
+* `for_each_glob_ref_in()` the previous and `for_each_ref_in()` combined.
+
+* `head_ref_submodule()`, `for_each_ref_submodule()`,
+ `for_each_ref_in_submodule()`, `for_each_tag_ref_submodule()`,
+ `for_each_branch_ref_submodule()`, `for_each_remote_ref_submodule()`
+ do the same as the functions descibed above but for a specified
+ submodule.
+
+* `for_each_rawref()` can be used to learn about broken ref and symref.
+
+* `for_each_reflog()` iterates each reflog file.
+
+Submodules
+----------
+
+If you want to iterate the refs of a submodule you first need to add the
+submodules object database. You can do this by a code-snippet like
+this:
+
+ const char *path = "path/to/submodule"
+ if (!add_submodule_odb(path))
+ die("Error submodule '%s' not populated.", path);
+
+`add_submodule_odb()` will return an non-zero value on success. If you
+do not do this you will get an error for each ref that it does not point
+to a valid object.
+
+Note: As a side-effect of this you can not safely assume that all
+objects you lookup are available in superproject. All submodule objects
+will be available the same way as the superprojects objects.
+
+Example:
+--------
+
+----
+static int handle_remote_ref(const char *refname,
+ const unsigned char *sha1, int flags, void *cb_data)
+{
+ struct strbuf *output = cb_data;
+ strbuf_addf(output, "%s\n", refname);
+ return 0;
+}
+
+...
+
+ struct strbuf output = STRBUF_INIT;
+ for_each_remote_ref(handle_remote_ref, &output);
+ printf("%s", output.buf);
+----
. Can sort an unsorted list using `sort_string_list`.
+. Can remove individual items of an unsorted list using
+ `unsorted_string_list_delete_item`.
+
. Finally it should free the list using `string_list_clear`.
Example:
The above two functions need to look through all items, as opposed to their
counterpart for sorted lists, which performs a binary search.
+`unsorted_string_list_delete_item`::
+
+ Remove an item from a string_list. The `string` pointer of the items
+ will be freed in case the `strdup_strings` member of the string_list
+ is set. The third parameter controls if the `util` pointer of the
+ items should be freed or not.
+
Data structures
---------------
- 160-bit object name for the object that would result from writing
this span of index as a tree.
- An entry can be in an invalidated state and is represented by having -1
- in the entry_count field.
+ An entry can be in an invalidated state and is represented by having
+ -1 in the entry_count field. In this case, there is no object name
+ and the next entry starts immediately after the newline.
The entries are written out in the top-down, depth-first order. The
first entry represents the root level of the repository, followed by the
Packfile Negotiation
--------------------
-After reference and capabilities discovery, the client can decide
-to terminate the connection by sending a flush-pkt, telling the
-server it can now gracefully terminate (as happens with the ls-remote
-command) or it can enter the negotiation phase, where the client and
-server determine what the minimal packfile necessary for transport is.
-
-Once the client has the initial list of references that the server
-has, as well as the list of capabilities, it will begin telling the
-server what objects it wants and what objects it has, so the server
-can make a packfile that only contains the objects that the client needs.
-The client will also send a list of the capabilities it wants to be in
-effect, out of what the server said it could do with the first 'want' line.
+After reference and capabilities discovery, the client can decide to
+terminate the connection by sending a flush-pkt, telling the server it can
+now gracefully terminate, and disconnect, when it does not need any pack
+data. This can happen with the ls-remote command, and also can happen when
+the client already is up-to-date.
+
+Otherwise, it enters the negotiation phase, where the client and
+server determine what the minimal packfile necessary for transport is,
+by telling the server what objects it wants, its shallow objects
+(if any), and the maximum commit depth it wants (if any). The client
+will also send a list of the capabilities it wants to be in effect,

Clients MUST send all the obj-ids it wants from the reference
obj-id in a 'want' command which did not appear in the response
obtained through ref discovery.
-If client is requesting a shallow clone, it will now send a 'deepen'
-line with the depth it is requesting.
+The client MUST write all obj-ids which it only has shallow copies
+of (meaning that it does not have the parents of a commit) as
+'shallow' lines so that the server is aware of the limitations of
+the client's history. Clients MUST NOT mention an obj-id which
+it does not know exists on the server.
+
+The client now sends the maximum commit history depth it wants for
+this transaction, which is the number of commits it wants from the
+tip of the history, if any, as a 'deepen' line. A depth of 0 is the
+same as not making a depth request. The client does not want to receive
+any commits beyond this depth, nor objects needed only to complete
+those commits. Commits whose parents are not received as a result are
+defined as shallow and marked as such in the server. This information
+is sent back to the client in the next step.
+
+Once all the 'want's and 'shallow's (and optional 'deepen') are
+transferred, clients MUST send a flush-pkt, to tell the server side
+that it is done sending the list.
+
+Otherwise, if the client sent a positive depth request, the server
+will determine which commits will and will not be shallow and
+send this information to the client. If the client did not request
+a positive depth, this step is skipped.
-Once all the "want"s (and optional 'deepen') are transferred,
-clients MUST send a flush-pkt. If the client has all the references
-on the server, client flushes and disconnects.

+If the client has requested a positive depth, the server will compute
+the set of commits which are no deeper than the desired depth, starting

+commit whose parents will not be sent as a result. The server writes
+an 'unshallow' line for each commit which the client has indicated is
+shallow, but is no longer shallow at the currently requested depth
+(that is, its parents will now be sent). The server MUST NOT mark
+as unshallow anything which the client has not indicated was shallow.
Now the client will send a list of the obj-ids it has using 'have'
-lines. In multi_ack mode, the canonical implementation will send up
-to 32 of these at a time, then will send a flush-pkt. The canonical
-implementation will skip ahead and send the next 32 immediately,
