+### Changes or improvements
-* File unlocks are atomic again via rename. Read-only files on Windows are
- made read-write if necessary.
+* Patience and minimal diff drivers can now be used for merges.
-* Share open packfiles across repositories to share descriptors and mmaps.
+* Merges can now ignore whitespace changes.
-* Use a map for the treebuilder, making insertion O(1)
+* Updated binary identification in CRLF filtering to avoid false positives in
+ UTF-8 files.
-* Introduce reference transactions, which allow multiple references to
- be locked at the same time and updates be queued. This also allows
- us to safely update a reflog with arbitrary contents, as we need to
- do for stash.
+* Rename and copy detection is enabled for small files.
-* The index' tree cache is now filled upon read-tree and write-tree
- and the cache is written to disk.
+* Checkout can now handle an initial checkout of a repository, making
+ `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE_CREATE` unnecessary for users of clone.
-* LF -> CRLF filter refuses to handle mixed-EOL files
+* The signature parameter in the ref-modifying functions has been
+ removed. Use `git_repository_set_ident()` and
+ `git_repository_ident()` to override the signature to be used.
-* LF -> CRLF filter now runs when * text = auto (with Git for Windows 1.9.4)
+* The local transport now auto-scales the number of threads to use
+ when creating the packfile instead of sticking to one.
-* The git_transport structure definition has moved into the sys/transport.h
- file.
+* Reference renaming now uses the right id for the old value.
-* The ssh transport supports asking the remote host for accepted
- credential types as well as multiple challeges using a single
- connection. This requires to know which username you want to connect
- as, so this introduces the USERNAME credential type which the ssh
- transport will use to ask for the username.
+* The annotated version of branch creation, HEAD detaching and reset
+ allow for specifying the expression from the user to be put into the
+ reflog.
-* The build system now accepts an option EMBED_SSH_PATH which when set
- tells it to include a copy of libssh2 at the given location. This is
- enabled for MSVC.
+* `git_rebase_commit` now returns `GIT_EUNMERGED` when you attempt to
+ commit with unstaged changes.
-* libgit2 no longer automatically sets the OpenSSL locking
- functions. This is not something which we can know to do. A
- last-resort convenience function is provided in sys/openssl.h,
- git_openssl_set_locking() which can be used to set the locking.
+* On Mac OS X, we now use SecureTransport to provide the cryptographic
+support for HTTPS connections insead of OpenSSL.
-* The git_transport_register function no longer takes a priority and takes
- a URL scheme name (eg "http") instead of a prefix like "http://"
+* Checkout can now accept an index for the baseline computations via the
+ `baseline_index` member.
-* The git_remote_set_transport function now sets a transport factory function,
- rather than a pre-existing transport instance.
+* The configuration for fetching is no longer stored inside the
+ `git_remote` struct but has been moved to a `git_fetch_options`. The
+ remote functions now take these options or the callbacks instead of
+ setting them beforehand.
-* A factory function for ssh has been added which allows to change the
- path of the programs to execute for receive-pack and upload-pack on
- the server, git_transport_ssh_with_paths.
+* The index now uses diffs for `add_all()` and `update_all()` which
+ gives it a speed boost and closer semantics to git.
-* git_remote_rename() now takes the repository and the remote's
- current name. Accepting a remote indicates we want to change it,
- which we only did partially. It is much clearer if we accept a name
- and no loaded objects are changed.
+* The ssh transport now reports the stderr output from the server as
+ the error message, which allows you to get the "repository not
+ found" messages.
-* git_remote_delete() now accepts the repository and the remote's name
- instead of a loaded remote.
+* `git_index_conflict_add()` will remove staged entries that exist for
+ conflicted paths.
-* git_remote_supported_url() and git_remote_is_valid_url() have been
- removed as they have become essentially useless with rsync-style ssh paths.
+* The flags for a `git_diff_file` will now have the `GIT_DIFF_FLAG_EXISTS`
+ bit set when a file exists on that side of the diff. This is useful
+ for understanding whether a side of the diff exists in the presence of
+ a conflict.
-* The git_clone_options struct no longer provides the ignore_cert_errors or
- remote_name members for remote customization.
+* The constructor for a write-stream into the odb now takes
+ `git_off_t` instead of `size_t` for the size of the blob, which
+ allows putting large files into the odb on 32-bit systems.
- Instead, the git_clone_options struct has two new members, remote_cb and
- remote_cb_payload, which allow the caller to completely override the remote
- creation process. If needed, the caller can use this callback to give their
- remote a name other than the default (origin) or disable cert checking.
+* The remote's push and pull URLs now honor the url.$URL.insteadOf
+ configuration. This allows modifying URL prefixes to a custom
+ value via gitconfig.
- The remote_callbacks member has been preserved for convenience, although it
- is not used when a remote creation callback is supplied.
+* `git_diff_foreach`, `git_diff_blobs`, `git_diff_blob_to_buffer`,
+ and `git_diff_buffers` now accept a new binary callback of type
+ `git_diff_binary_cb` that includes the binary diff information.
-* The git_clone_options struct now provides repository_cb and
- repository_cb_payload to allow the user to create a repository with
- custom options.
+* The race condition mitigations described in `racy-git.txt` have been
+ implemented.
-* The option to ignore certificate errors via git_remote_cert_check()
- is no longer present. Instead, git_remote_callbacks has gained a new
- entry which lets the user perform their own certificate checks.
+* If libcurl is installed, we will use it to connect to HTTP(S)
+ servers.
-* git_clone_into and git_clone_local_into have been removed from the
- public API in favour of git_clone callbacks
+### API additions
-* Add support for refspecs with the asterisk in the middle of a
- pattern.
+* The `git_merge_options` gained a `file_flags` member.
-* Fetching now performs opportunistic updates. To achieve this, we
- introduce a difference between active and passive refspecs, which
- make git_remote_download and git_remote_fetch to take a list of
- resfpecs to be the active list, similarly to how git fetch accepts a
- list on the command-line.
+* Parsing and retrieving a configuration value as a path is exposed
+ via `git_config_parse_path()` and `git_config_get_path()`
+ respectively.
-* Rename git_remote_load() to git_remote_lookup() to bring it in line
- with the rest of the lookup functions.
+* `git_repository_set_ident()` and `git_repository_ident()` serve to
+ set and query which identity will be used when writing to the
+ reflog.
-* The git_push struct to perform a push has been replaced with
- git_remote_upload(). The refspecs and options are passed as a
- function argument. git_push_update_tips() is now also
- git_remote_update_tips() and the callbacks are in the same struct as
- the rest.
+* `git_config_entry_free()` frees a config entry.
-* Introduce git_merge_bases() and the git_oidarray type to expose all
- merge bases between two commits.
+* `git_config_get_string_buf()` provides a way to safely retrieve a
+ string from a non-snapshot configuration.
-* Introduce git_merge_bases_many() to expose all merge bases between
- multiple commits.
+* `git_annotated_commit_from_revspec()` allows to get an annotated
+ commit from an extended sha synatx string.
-* git_merge_head is now git_annotated_commit, to better reflect its usage
- for multiple functions (including rebase)
+* `git_repository_set_head_detached_from_annotated()`,
+ `git_branch_create_from_annotated()` and
+ `git_reset_from_annotated()` allow for the caller to provide an
+ annotated commit through which they can control what expression is
+ put into the reflog as the source/target.
-* Introduce rebase functionality (using the merge algorithm only).
- Introduce git_rebase_init() to begin a new rebase session,
- git_rebase_open() to open an in-progress rebase session,
- git_rebase_commit() to commit the current rebase operation,
- git_rebase_next() to apply the next rebase operation,
- git_rebase_abort() to abort an in-progress rebase and git_rebase_finish()
- to complete a rebase operation.
+* `git_index_add_frombuffer()` can now create a blob from memory
+ buffer and add it to the index which is attached to a repository.
-* Introduce git_note_author() and git_note_committer() to get the author
- and committer information on a git_note, respectively.
+* The structure `git_fetch_options` has been added to determine the
+ runtime configuration for fetching, such as callbacks, pruning and
+ autotag behaviour. It has the runtime initializer
+ `git_fetch_init_options()`.
-* git_note_create() has changed the position of the notes reference
- name to match git_note_remove().
+* The enum `git_fetch_prune_t` has been added, letting you specify the
+ pruning behaviour for a fetch.
-* The THREADSAFE option to build libgit2 with threading support has
- been flipped to be on by default.
+* A push operation will notify the caller of what updates it indends
+ to perform on the remote, which provides similar information to
+ git's pre-push hook.
-* The context_lines and interhunk_lines fields in git_diff_options are
- now uint32_t instead of uint16_t. This allows to set them to UINT_MAX,
- in effect asking for "infinite" context e.g. to iterate over all the
- unmodified lines of a diff.
+* `git_stash_apply()` can now apply a stashed state from the stash list,
+ placing the data into the working directory and index.
-* git_status_file now takes an exact path. Use git_status_list_new if
- pathspec searching is needed.
+* `git_stash_pop()` will apply a stashed state (like `git_stash_apply()`)
+ but will remove the stashed state after a successful application.
-* The fetch behavior of remotes with autotag set to GIT_REMOTE_DOWNLOAD_TAGS_ALL
- has been changed to match git 1.9.0 and later. In this mode, libgit2 now
- fetches all tags in addition to whatever else needs to be fetched.
+* A new error code `GIT_EEOF` indicates an early EOF from the
+ server. This typically indicates an error with the URL or
+ configuration of the server, and tools can use this to show messages
+ about failing to communicate with the server.
-* The remote object has learnt to prune remote-tracking branches. If
- the remote is configured to do so, this will happen via
- git_remote_fetch(). You can also call git_remote_prune() after
- connecting or fetching to perform the prune.
+* `git_diff_index_to_workdir()` and `git_diff_tree_to_index()` will now
+ produce deltas of type `GIT_DELTA_CONFLICTED` to indicate that the index
+ side of the delta is a conflict.
-* git_threads_init() and git_threads_shutdown() have been renamed to
- git_libgit2_init() and git_libgit2_shutdown() to better explain what
- their purpose is, as it's grown to be more than just about threads.
+* The `git_status` family of functions will now produce status of type
+ `GIT_STATUS_CONFLICTED` to indicate that a conflict exists for that file
+ in the index.
-* git_libgit2_init() and git_libgit2_shutdown() now return the number of
- initializations of the library, so consumers may schedule work on the
- first initialization.
+* `git_index_entry_is_conflict()` is a utility function to determine if
+ a given index entry has a non-zero stage entry, indicating that it is
+ one side of a conflict.
-* git_treebuilder_new (was git_treebuilder_create) now takes a
- repository so that it can query repository configuration.
- Subsequently, git_treebuilder_write no longer takes a repository.
+* It is now possible to pass a keypair via a buffer instead of a
+ path. For this, `GIT_CREDTYPE_SSH_MEMORY` and
+ `git_cred_ssh_key_memory_new()` have been added.
-* git_treebuilder_create was renamed to git_treebuilder_new to better
- reflect it being a constructor rather than something which writes to
- disk.
+* `git_filter_list_contains` will indicate whether a particular
+ filter will be run in the given filter list.
-* git_checkout now handles case-changing renames correctly on
- case-insensitive filesystems; for example renaming "readme" to "README".
+* `git_commit_header_field()` has been added, which allows retrieving
+ the contents of an arbitrary header field.
-* git_index_name_entrycount() and git_index_reuc_entrycount() now
- return size_t instead of unsigned int.
+### API removals
+
+* `git_remote_save()` and `git_remote_clear_refspecs()` have been
+ removed. Remote's configuration is changed via the configuration
+ directly or through a convenience function which performs changes to
+ the configuration directly.
+
+* `git_remote_set_callbacks()`, `git_remote_get_callbacks()` and
+ `git_remote_set_transport()` have been removed and the remote no
+ longer stores this configuration.
+
+* `git_remote_set_fetch_refpecs()` and
+ `git_remote_set_push_refspecs()` have been removed. There is no
+ longer a way to set the base refspecs at run-time.
+
+### Breaking API changes
+
+* `git_smart_subtransport_cb` now has a `param` parameter.
+
+* The `git_merge_options` structure member `flags` has been renamed
+ to `tree_flags`.
+
+* The `git_merge_file_options` structure member `flags` is now
+ an unsigned int. It was previously a `git_merge_file_flags_t`.
+
+* `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE_CREATE` has been removed. Most users will generally
+ be able to switch to `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE`, but if you require missing
+ file handling during checkout, you may now use `GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE |
+ GIT_CHECKOUT_RECREATE_MISSING`.
+
+* The `git_clone_options` and `git_submodule_update_options`
+ structures no longer have a `signature` field.
+
+* The following functions have removed the signature and/or log message
+ parameters in favour of git-emulating ones.
+
+ * `git_branch_create()`, `git_branch_move()`
+ * `git_rebase_init()`, `git_rebase_abort()`
+ * `git_reference_symbolic_create_matching()`,
+ `git_reference_symbolic_create()`, `git_reference_create()`,
+ `git_reference_create_matching()`,
+ `git_reference_symbolic_set_target()`,
+ `git_reference_set_target()`, `git_reference_rename()`
+ * `git_remote_update_tips()`, `git_remote_fetch()`, `git_remote_push()`
+ * `git_repository_set_head()`,
+ `git_repository_set_head_detached()`,
+ `git_repository_detach_head()`
+ * `git_reset()`
+
+* `git_config_get_entry()` now gives back a ref-counted
+ `git_config_entry`. You must free it when you no longer need it.
+
+* `git_config_get_string()` will return an error if used on a
+ non-snapshot configuration, as there can be no guarantee that the
+ returned pointer is valid.
+
+* `git_note_default_ref()` now uses a `git_buf` to return the string,
+ as the string is otherwise not guaranteed to stay allocated.
+
+* `git_rebase_operation_current()` will return `GIT_REBASE_NO_OPERATION`
+ if it is called immediately after creating a rebase session but before
+ you have applied the first patch.
+
+* `git_rebase_options` now contains a `git_checkout_options` struct
+ that will be used for functions that modify the working directory,
+ namely `git_checkout_init`, `git_checkout_next` and
+ `git_checkout_abort`. As a result, `git_rebase_open` now also takes
+ a `git_rebase_options` and only the `git_rebase_init` and
+ `git_rebase_open` functions take a `git_rebase_options`, where they
+ will persist the options to subsequent `git_rebase` calls.
+
+* The `git_clone_options` struct now has fetch options in a
+ `fetch_opts` field instead of remote callbacks in
+ `remote_callbacks`.
+
+* The remote callbacks has gained a new member `push_negotiation`
+ which gets called before sending the update commands to the server.
+
+* The following functions now longer act on a remote instance but
+ change the repository's configuration. Their signatures have changed
+ accordingly:
+
+ * `git_remote_set_url()`, `git_remote_seturl()`
+ * `git_remote_add_fetch()`, `git_remote_add_push()` and
+ * `git_remote_set_autotag()`
+
+* `git_remote_connect()` and `git_remote_prune()` now take a pointer
+ to the callbacks.
+
+* `git_remote_fetch()` and `git_remote_download()` now take a pointer
+ to fetch options which determine the runtime configuration.
+
+* The `git_remote_autotag_option_t` values have been changed. It has
+ gained a `_FALLBACK` default value to specify no override for the
+ configured setting.
+
+* `git_remote_update_tips()` now takes a pointer to the callbacks as
+ well as a boolean whether to write `FETCH_HEAD` and the autotag
+ setting.
+
+* `git_remote_create_anonymous()` no longer takes a fetch refspec as
+ url-only remotes cannot have configured refspecs.
+
+* The `git_submodule_update_options` struct now has fetch options in
+ the `fetch_opts` field instead of callbacks in the
+ `remote_callbacks` field.
+
+* The `push` function in the `git_transport` interface now takes a
+ pointer to the remote callbacks.
+
+* The `git_index_entry` struct's fields' types have been changed to
+ more accurately reflect what is in fact stored in the
+ index. Specifically, time and file size are 32 bits intead of 64, as
+ these values are truncated.
+
+* `GIT_EMERGECONFLICT` is now `GIT_ECONFLICT`, which more accurately
+ describes the nature of the error.

+
+* `git_checkout()` now handles case-changing renames correctly on

* The search for libssh2 is now done via pkg-config instead of a
custom search of a few directories.
* The local transport now generates textual progress output like
git-upload-pack does ("counting objects").
-* The git_submodule_update function was renamed to
- git_submodule_update_strategy. git_submodule_update is now used to

-

necessarily the repository's index, so you may check out an index
that was produced by git_merge and friends while retaining the cached
information.
-* git_cherry_pick() is now git_cherrypick().
-
-* Introduce git_buf_text_is_binary() and git_buf_text_contains_nul() for

-
* Remove the default timeout for receiving / sending data over HTTP using

+
+* Introduce `GIT_REPOSITORY_INIT_RELATIVE_GITLINK` to use relative paths
when writing gitlinks, as is used by git core for submodules.
+
+* `git_remote_prune()` has been added. See above for description.
+
+
+* Introduce reference transactions, which allow multiple references to
+ be locked at the same time and updates be queued. This also allows
+ us to safely update a reflog with arbitrary contents, as we need to

+
+### API removals
+
+* `git_remote_supported_url()` and `git_remote_is_valid_url()` have been

+ `git_libgit2_init()` and `git_libgit2_shutdown()` to better explain what
+ their purpose is, as it's grown to be more than just about threads.
+
+* `git_libgit2_init()` and `git_libgit2_shutdown()` now return the number of

+ return size_t instead of unsigned int.
+
+* The `context_lines` and `interhunk_lines` fields in `git_diff`_options are
+ now `uint32_t` instead of `uint16_t`. This allows to set them to `UINT_MAX`,
+ in effect asking for "infinite" context e.g. to iterate over all the

+
+* `git_status_file()` now takes an exact path. Use `git_status_list_new()` if
+ pathspec searching is needed.
+
+* `git_note_create()` has changed the position of the notes reference
+ name to match `git_note_remove()`.
+
+* Rename `git_remote_load()` to `git_remote_lookup()` to bring it in line
+ with the rest of the lookup functions.
+
+* `git_remote_rename()` now takes the repository and the remote's
+ current name. Accepting a remote indicates we want to change it,
+ which we only did partially. It is much clearer if we accept a name
+ and no loaded objects are changed.
+
+* `git_remote_delete()` now accepts the repository and the remote's name
+ instead of a loaded remote.
+
+* `git_merge_head` is now `git_annotated_commit`, to better reflect its usage

+* The `git_push` struct to perform a push has been replaced with
+ `git_remote_upload()`. The refspecs and options are passed as a
+ function argument. `git_push_update_tips()` is now also
+ `git_remote_update_tips()` and the callbacks are in the same struct as
+ the rest.
+
+* The `git_remote_set_transport()` function now sets a transport factory function,
+ rather than a pre-existing transport instance.
+
+* The `git_transport` structure definition has moved into the sys/transport.h
+ file.
+
+* libgit2 no longer automatically sets the OpenSSL locking
+ functions. This is not something which we can know to do. A
+ last-resort convenience function is provided in sys/openssl.h,
+ `git_openssl_set_locking()` which can be used to set the locking.
