"zdiff3" is identical to ordinary diff3 except that it allows compaction
of common lines on the two sides of history at the beginning or end of
the conflict hunk. For example, the following diff3 conflict:
1
2
3
4
<<<<<<
A
B
C
D
E
||||||
5
6
======
A
X
C
Y
E
>>>>>>
7
8
9
has common lines 'A', 'C', and 'E' on the two sides. With zdiff3, one
would instead get the following conflict:
1
2
3
4
A
<<<<<<
B
C
D
||||||
5
6
======
X
C
Y
>>>>>>
E
7
8
9
Note that the common lines, 'A', and 'E' were moved outside the
conflict. Unlike with the two-way conflicts from the 'merge'
conflictStyle, the zdiff3 conflict is NOT split into multiple conflict
regions to allow the common 'C' lines to be shown outside a conflict,
because zdiff3 shows the base version too and the base version cannot be
reasonably split.
Note also that the removing of lines common to the two sides might make
the remaining text inside the conflict region match the base text inside
the conflict region (for example, if the diff3 conflict had '5 6 E' on
the right side of the conflict, then the common line 'E' would be moved
outside and both the base and right side's remaining conflict text would
be the lines '5' and '6'). This has the potential to surprise users and
make them think there should not have been a conflict, but there
definitely was a conflict and it should remain.

The compatibility implementation for unsetenv(3) were written to
mimic ancient, non-POSIX, variant seen in an old glibc; it has been
changed to return an integer to match the more modern era.

Things like "git -c branch.sort=bogus branch new HEAD", i.e. the

"git grep" looking in a blob that has non-UTF8 payload was
completely broken when linked with versions of PCREv2 library older
than 10.34 in the latest release.
* hm/paint-hits-in-log-grep:
Revert "grep/pcre2: fix an edge case concerning ascii patterns and UTF-8 data"
This reverts commit f6526728f9.
The change in f652672 (dir: select directories correctly, 2021-09-24)
caused a regression in directory-based matches with non-cone-mode
patterns, especially for .gitignore patterns. A test is included to
prevent this regression in the future.
The commit ed495847 (dir: fix pattern matching on dirs, 2021-09-24) was
reverted in 5ceb663 (dir: fix directory-matching bug, 2021-11-02) for
similar reasons. Neither commit changed tests, and tests added later in
the series continue to pass when these commits are reverted.

The already-up-to-date pull bug was fixed for --ff-only but it did not

specified in command line flags or config.

A superfluous ']' was added to the title of the GitHub CI section in
f003a91f5c (SubmittingPatches: replace discussion of Travis with GitHub
Actions, 2021-07-22). Remove it.
While at it, format the URL for a GitHub user's workflow runs of Git
between backticks, since if not Asciidoc formats only the first part,
"https://github.com/<Your", as a link, which is not very useful.

When checking typos in file "po/ko.po", "git-po-helper" reports lots of
false positives because there are no spaces between ASCII and Korean
characters. After applied commit adee197 "(dict: add smudge table for
Korean language, 2021-11-11)" of "git-l10n/git-po-helper" to suppress
these false positives, some easy-to-fix typos are found and fixed.

When we added a new event type to trace2 event stream, we forgot to
raise the format version number, which has been corrected.

trace2: increment event format version
Regression fix.
* ab/fsck-unexpected-type:
object-file: free(*contents) only in read_loose_object() caller
object-file: fix SEGV on free() regression in v2.34.0-rc2
In 64bc752 (trace2: add trace2_child_ready() to report on background
children, 2021-09-20), we added a new "child_ready" event. In
Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt, we promise that adding a new
event type will result in incrementing the trace2 event format version
number, but this was not done. Correct this in code & docs.

In the preceding commit a free() of uninitialized memory regression in
96e41f58fe (fsck: report invalid object type-path combinations,
2021-10-01) was fixed, but we'd still have an issue with leaking
memory from fsck_loose(). Let's fix that issue too.
That issue was introduced in my 31deb28f5e (fsck: don't hard die on
invalid object types, 2021-10-01). It can be reproduced under
SANITIZE=leak with the test I added in 093fffdfbe (fsck tests: add
test for fsck-ing an unknown type, 2021-10-01):
./t1450-fsck.sh --run=84 -vixd
In some sense it's not a problem, we lost the same amount of memory in
terms of things malloc'd and not free'd. It just moved from the "still
reachable" to "definitely lost" column in valgrind(1) nomenclature[1],
since we'd have die()'d before.
But now that we don't hard die() anymore in the library let's properly
free() it. Doing so makes this code much easier to follow, since we'll
now have one function owning the freeing of the "contents" variable,
not two.
For context on that memory management pattern the read_loose_object()
function was added in f6371f9210 (sha1_file: add read_loose_object()
function, 2017-01-13) and subsequently used in c68b489e56 (fsck:
parse loose object paths directly, 2017-01-13). The pattern of it
being the task of both sides to free() the memory has been there in
this form since its inception.

This reverts commit f45022dc2f,
as this is like breakage in the traversal more likely. In a
history with 10 single strand of pearls,
1-->2-->3--...->7-->8-->9-->10
asking "rev-list --unsorted-input 1 10 --not 9 8 7 6 5 4" fails to
paint the bottom 1 uninteresting as the traversal stops, without
completing the propagation of uninteresting bit starting at 4 down
through 3 and 2 to 1.
