Prepare to write pseudo-merge bitmaps by annotating individual bitmapped
commits (which are represented by the `bitmapped_commit` structure) with
an extra bit indicating whether or not they are a pseudo-merge.
In subsequent commits, pseudo-merge bitmaps will be generated by
allocating a fake commit node with parents covering the full set of
commits represented by the pseudo-merge bitmap. These commits will be
added to the set of "selected" commits as usual, but will be written
specially instead of being included with the rest of the selected
commits.
Mechanically speaking, there are two parts of this change:
- The bitmapped_commit struct gets a new bit indicating whether it is
a pseudo-merge, or an ordinary commit selected for bitmaps.
- A handful of changes to only write out the non-pseudo-merge commits
when enumerating through the selected array (see the new
`bitmap_writer_selected_nr()` function). Pseudo-merge commits appear
after all non-pseudo-merge commits, so it is safe to enumerate
through the selected array like so:
for (i = 0; i < bitmap_writer_selected_nr(); i++)
if (writer.selected[i].pseudo_merge)
BUG("unexpected pseudo-merge");
without encountering the BUG().

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the
documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
(man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is
installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).
Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message
string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md
(a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).
To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
