-* Magit v2.90.0 Release Notes
-
-Released 8th November 2018 by Jonas Bernoulli.
-
-I am pleased to announce the release of Magit version 2.90.0,
-representing 395 commits by 18 contributors over five months.
-
-Also see https://emacsair.me/2018/11/08/magit-2.90.
-
-** Breaking changes
-
-- Dropped support for Emacs 24.4. At least Emacs 25.1 is required
- now.
-
-- Dropped support for Git 1. At least Git 2.0.0 is required now. The
- reason 2.0.0 is the new minimal version isn't its roundness but the
- discovery that some parts of Magit already depended on that release
- for two years. Since we will soon drop support for versions before
- (probably) 2.4.0 anyway, we don't add a backward compatibility
- kludge for the feature that already requires 2.0.0 but instead bump
- the minimal version a first time.
-
-- Many commands were renamed, making their names longer. The old
- names are defined as aliases for now. This is part one of a two
- part change. In this release we rename, for example, ~magit-tag~ to
- ~magit-tag-create~ and in a later release ~magit-tag-popup~ will be
- renamed to ~magit-tag~. #3619
-
-- Removed many obsolete variable and function aliases.
-
-- Removed many obsolete variables that are not mere aliases.
-
-- Removed ~magit-section~ accessor functions. Use the ~oref~ and ~oset~
- functions instead.
-
-- The function ~magit-section-when~ has been deprecated in favor
- of ~magit-section-match~ or the new ~magit-section-value-if~. The
- signatures of some related low-level functions have changed. #3590
-
-- The ~submodule~ section type has been renamed to ~module~, same for the
- plural variant and the related section-specific keymaps. 35f803c9c,
- 59e3891fd
-
-- Added a new function ~magit-completing-read-multiple*~, which is more
- like ~magit-completing-read~ than ~magit-completing-read-multiple~.
- Authors of extension should use the new function, which eventually
- will replace the old one. cb4d59190
-
-** Changes since v2.13.0
-
-- Added a new mode ~magit-wip-mode~, which enables automatic committing
- to work-in-progress refs whenever that makes sense. Previously
- multiple ~magit-wip-*~ modes had to be enabled to accomplish the same.
- These modes still exist, the new mode is implemented on top of them,
- but their explicit use by the user is discouraged. #3534
-
-- Added a new option ~magit-wip-merge-branch~, which causes the current
- branch to be merged into its wip refs after creating a new commit on
- the current branch. This isn't enabled by default yet because some
- additional tooling is required to deal with the fact that this
- prevents the wip refs from ever being garbage collected, and results
- in unwieldy commit graphs when history manipulation is involved.
- #3534
-
-- Added new commands ~magit-wip-log-index~ and ~magit-wip-log-worktree~.
- #3534
-
-- It is now possible to specify the major-mode used to edit commit
- messages on a per-repository basis. The same major-mode is also
- used to prettify commit messages when displaying existing commit
- messages in ~magit-revision-mode~ buffers.
-
- To set the major-mode to be used for commit messages add an entry
- to the appropriate ~.dir-locals.el~ file using ~git-commit-mode~ as
- the key, as if that mode were a major-mode. This can also be used
- to set other variables in the buffers used to /edit/ commit messages.
-
- If ~$GIT_WORK_TREE/.git~ is a file, then ~$GIT_WORK_TREE/.dir-locals.el~
- would normally not apply when editing a file inside ~$GIT_DIR~. Magit
- uses it anyway unless ~$GIT_DIR/.dir-locals.el~ exists.
-
- 55ba0534c, d7412da32, c5269547a
-
-- Added a new major-mode ~git-commit-elisp-text-mode~ intended to be
- used when editing commit messages for Elisp projects. It derives
- from ~text-mode~ and additionally highlights ~`symbols'~ and "strings".
- d7fa6632b
-
-- Changed the order and the initial visibility of log sections in the
- status buffer to optimize for "usefulness". Previously the focus
- was on making it more likely that the user did not ignore the less
- frequently useful logs, but that was quite annoying because it got
- in the way of the more frequently performed tasks. #3518
-
-- Added new option ~magit-status-initial-section~, which controls which
- section point is placed on when a status buffer is created. The new
- default is to place point on the section that follows the headers,
- i.e., the second section. This is quite flexible, you might want to
- read the doc-string. 87de83da8, #3562, #3518
-
-- Added new commands ~magit-commit-absorb~ and ~magit-commit-absorb-popup~.
- These commands depend on the ~git-autofixup~ script, which is available
- from https://github.com/torbiak/git-autofixup. #3053
-
-- Began migrating from using section "types" to using section classes
- that can inherit from other classes. #3590
-
-- Removed many backward compatibility hacks, which are no longer
- necessary.
-
-- Began to use features and many convenience functions that we
- couldn't use before because we still supported Emacs 24.4.
-
-- ~magit-file-rename~ now reads the target from the same directory as
- the source. This is more convenient because removing parts of the
- path is easier than adding them again.
-
-- Added new ~magit-gitignore-popup~ and bound ~I~ to it, making it
- possible to use ~i~ for the ~magit-imerge-popup~ from the ~magit-imerge~
- package.
-
-- Renamed the existing command ~magit-describe-section~ to
- ~magit-describe-section-briefly~ and added a new command
- ~magit-describe-section~, which pops up a ~*Help*~ buffer,
- which contains information about the function and hook
- used to insert the section. #3539
-
-- Added new ~magit-refname-pullreq~ face and a corresponding entry to
- ~magit-ref-namespaces~.
-
-- Added new option ~magit-log-trace-definition-function~, which allows
- specifying the function that ~magit-log-trace-definition~ should use
- to determine the function at point. The default is ~which-function~.
- Previously the less complete ~add-log-current-defun~ was used.
- #3483, 9ff266358
-
-- fixup! and squash! are now highlighted like [keywords] in logs.
- 426773040
-
-- Added new stub commands ~magit-browse-thing~ and ~magit-edit-thing~.
- Like other ~magit-*-thing~ functions they are intend to be replaced
- in section-specific keymaps. The ~forge~ package will use do so for
- these commands. 56fccaca6, 0fa3092eb
-
-- In case they are bound when Magit is loaded then ~$GIT_DIR~ and
- ~$GIT_WORK_TREE~ are unset now. Magit breaks if these variables are
- set and the most likely cause for them to be set is a user error.
- 2d7d5d840
-
-- ~magit-merge-into~ now only offers local branches for completion and
- defaults to the upstream. If the upstream is a remote branch then
- it defaults to the respective local branch. a52d70198
-
-- It is now possible to set the face used to highlight the headings of
- certain sections using the new ~heading-highlight-face~ slot. 2319a1e0e
-
-- The summary line of a commit message and the first line of notes are
- now emphasized more to make it more obvious what text is part of the
- commit message and what text was added by a note. fda4b936c
-
-- Detection of the branch at point was improved. #3530
-
-- Added new shortstat margin style for logs. Performance isn't good
- yet, so you might want to avoid this for long logs. #3035
-
-- Added new variable ~magit-perl-executable~ for platforms that put ~perl~
- in unusual places. We use ~perl~ for some one-liners that are embedded
- in lisp because we known that it is available because ~git~ depends on
- it. #3538
-
-- Added new command ~magit-reset-worktree~. The existing ~magit-reset-*~
- commands already implemented the variants supported by ~git reset~,
- now Magit also implements the variant missing from that. b4d5c2bee
-
-- Improved ~magit-process-password-auth-source~'s entry matching.
- 60a335e5c
-
-- Added new hook ~magit-create-buffer~ hook. 2113dfc3d
-
-- When the user "discards" a file with conflicts then they are asked
- which side of the conflict they want to keep. When multiple files
- are selected, then it is now possible to decide for all of them at
- once. #3553
-
-- Added option ~--ignore-submodules~ to diff popups. This option does
- not only affect diffs but also the dedicated module sections and can
- therefore be used to temporarily hide all information about modules,
- which can be expensive to calculate. #3555, #3568
-
-- Added ~--graph~ to the default value of ~magit-log-select-arguments~
- instead of hard-coding this argument for some of the users of the
- log-select machinery. #3559
-
-- The upstream of the current branch is no emphasized in logs, by
- default by making it italic. #3573
-
-- Added new command ~magit-submodule-remove~ and the new related option
- ~magit-submodule-remove-trash-gitdirs~. The default is to not trash
- the gitdirs. ~magit-submodule-add~ now offers to reuse an existing
- gitdir when re-adding a submodule. #3585
-
-- ~magit-submodule-add~ is run asynchronously now. #3585
-
-- Information about the running Git process is now also shown in the
- mode-line of buffers that were created after the process was
- started. 43264c873
-
-- Rebase commands that continue a rebase sequence can now use ~git rbr~
- instead of ~git rebase~. To initiate a rebase sequence using ~git rbr~
- you may use https://github.com/fanatoly/magit-rbr. c2cd780b2
-
-- The manual is now also available in epub format, but it isn't very
- pretty. #3579
-
-- Added new hooks ~magit-stage-hook~ and ~magit-unstage-hook~. #3496
-
-- Added new hook ~git-commit-post-finish-hook~, a hook that has been
- requested many times but which I did not implement before because it
- is impossible to make 100% reliable. When the ~emacsclient~ returns,
- then that does not mean that the calling process is done too. We
- avoid a race condition by waiting for ~HEAD~ to point to a different
- commit than it used to point to, before running the hook. If it
- takes longer than a second for this to happen, then the hook is not
- run. A few unsafe commands are also blacklisted because they
- perform other things after creating the commit and that would lead
- to another race condition. #3615, d445a3d30, af4bf8df8
-
- This hook is used instead of ~with-editor-post-finish-hook~ (on which
- the former is build) to merge the current branch into its wip refs
- when ~magit-wip-merge-branch~ is non-nil.
-
-- Added new hook ~magit-post-commit-hook~, which is only run after
- running a ~magit-commit-*~ command that does not require the user
- to edit the commit message. #3615
-
-- ~magit-format-patch~ can now be told to only include the changes to
- certain files in the patch. It now also refreshes Magit buffers.
- #3601
-
-- The list of related refs in ~magit-revision-mode~ buffers is no longer
- truncate when it doesn't fit on a single line. Instead users can
- now specify the kinds of refs that should be inserted in such
- buffers using the option ~magit-revision-insert-related-refs~. #3487
-
-- Added new function ~magit-gitdir~ scheduled to replace ~magit-git-dir~
- eventually because the latter has a really strange signature.
- 5f407a29a
-
-- Created new libraries from existing code. 9efcb1e8b ff
-
-- The option ~magit-revision-show-gravatar~ is now easier to customize.
- Customizing it to only show one of the two images actually works
- now. f4b8fee66, b82228bc6
-
-- The option ~magit-repository-directories~ has a non-nil default value
- now. f77d1158b
-
-- The list of stashes in the status buffer is initially collapsed now.
- 4dc1d0593
-
-- The commands ~magit-previous-line~ and ~magit-next-line~ are used by
- default now. 3ae75c865
-
-- Added support for ~--left-right~ output in logs. #3627
-
-- Added new option ~magit-with-editor-envvar~. Changing its value from
- ~GIT_EDITOR~ to ~GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR~ allows users to continue to use
- Magit (~git-rebase.el~ actually) to edit rebase sequence but to use
- another editor to edit commit messages and such. #3629
-
-- Added new option ~magit-clone-default-directory~. #3635
-
-- ~magit-ref-namespaces~ is now taken into account when colorizing
- branch names in buffers listing refs. #3645
-
-- Added new option ~magit-revision-fill-summary-line~. #3610
-
-** Fixes since v2.13.0
-
-- A confirmation prompt during rebase was wrong. 37d76f409
-
-- ~magit-rebase-autosquash~ asked for confirmation when the user already
- confirmed earlier. 02e6c75b6
-
-- ~magit-commit-add-log~ inserted after the diff that gets inserted if
- ~commit.verbose~ is ~true~. #3480
-
-- ~magit-log-wash-rev~ errored in ~magit-cherry-mode~, starting with Emacs
- 26.1.
-
-- ~magit-dired-jump~ failed, starting with Emacs 26.1. #3469
-
-- Magit used a completion function to make the built-in completion
- respect the collection's order. Even though that wasn't necessary
- for Ivy and Helm it did the same here, which became a problem when a
- change in Helm caused fuzzy completion to break in combination with
- a completion function. Likewise a change in Ivy caused Magit's sort
- order to be ignored, which we work around now. #3476, #3477
-
-- In some edge cases ~magit-branch-pull-request~ used to set Git
- variables to invalid values. #3417
-
-- The section visibility cache used ~eq~ when it should have used ~equal~.
- It also briefly used ~alist-get~, which we cannot do because that did
- not take a ~testfn~ argument in Emacs 25. #3495, #3499
-
-- Detecting whether a commit has already been pushed to a "publishing"
- branch was much slower than it had to be. #3519
-
-- ~magit-gitignore-popup~'s autoload definition was broken.
-
-- When using cygwin, then ~git-commit-setup-font-lock~ could end up
- trying to run git in a non-existent directory. #3505
-
-- ~magit-completing-read~ did not protect the value of ~this-command~ even
- though there is code that assumes it does. #3529
-
-- ~magit-read-file-trace~ in some cases claimed that valid user input
- was invalid even though it was valid. Now we don't try to validate
- it anymore. #3531
-
-- We didn't account for the surprising fact that asking whether the
- value of a local variable is risky can change point. #3541
-
-- ~magit-merge-into~ signaled an error if the upstream of the current
- branch isn't configured instead of letting the user pick a target.
- #3550
-
-- Some of the more complex ~magit-cherry-*~ variants did not abort if
- the first step failed. #3556
-
-- Trying to visit a commit of a submodule directly from the status
- buffer of the super-projects resulted in an error. #3563
-
-- ~magit-file-rename~ failed to rename a file that is located at the
- top-level of the working tree. #3569
-
-- Magit didn't account for ~git rebase -i --root~ corrupting the root
- commit's author date field, resulting in its output being corrupted
- too. #3574
-
-- If given one invalid rev, then ~magit-rev-eq~ returned ~nil~, but when
- both revs are invalid, then it returned ~t~. Now it returns ~nil~ in
- both cases.
-
-- In an edge case ~magit-diff-type~ falsely concluded that the
- uncommitted changes in a diff buffer already are committed. #2627
-
-- ~magit--github-url-p~ failed to return ~t~ for an url for Github
- Enterprise instances. #3572
-
-- Trying to insert Gravatar images resulted in an error if the service
- is not reachable. #3597
-
-- ~magit-display-buffer~ always selected the appropriate frame even if
- that was already selected. That is undesirable because selecting
- a frame has side-effects. f07eb85c6
-
-- A key binding was not updated when ~magit-submodule-deinit~ was renamed
- to ~magit-submodule-unpopulate~. b06845208
-
-- ~magit-submodule-visit~ could end up re-populating the visited module.
- 3d794cd01
-
-- The third-party ~git-annex~ program converts submodule gitdirs to
- symlinks, which we did not account for. #3599
-
-- ~magit-bisect-start~ did fail silently when invalid user input, which
- flipped the good and bad revisions, instead of providing an
- informative error message. #3604
-
-- ~magit-bisect-start~ did fail silently when there are uncommitted
- changes instead of providing an informative error message. In some
- cases it actually is possible to bisect with uncommitted changes but
- that would be dangerous and we do not try to detect whether that is
- the case and just always error out. #3604
-
-- When applying changes, then the ~--unidiff-zero~ and ~-C0~ arguments
- were not automatically used when needed. The former wasn't used
- because of a bug, the latter because I was not aware that there
- was an edge case that makes that necessary. #3608
-
-- Backported a fix (from Emacs 27) for an Emacs bug that sometimes
- caused ~git rebase~ to fail to acquire the ~index.lock~. #2708,
- https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=21559
-
-- Autoloading ~magit-submodules~ didn't work. #3618
-
-- Reverting files failed if the selection contained only binary files.
- c7bbe3e9a
-
-- ~magit-read-repository~ failed when ~magit-repository-directories~ is
- non-nil but no repository can be found in those directories. #3636
-
-- Attempting to reverse changes to binary files failed with an error
- that wasn't informative enough. #3625
-
-- When a local branch is being renamed, then ~magit-branch-rename~ used
- to also rename the (remote) push-target, which is unsafe in some
- cases. Now it always asks the user before doing so. 14c7b1381
