A release candidate Git v2.17.0-rc1 is now available for testing
at the usual places. It is comprised of 493 non-merge commits
since v2.16.0, contributed by 62 people, 19 of which are new faces.
I have this deployed on some tens of K machines who all use git in one
way or another (from automated pulls, to users interactively), and rc0
before that, with a few patches on top from me + Takato + Duy + Derrick
since rc0 was released (and since today based on top of rc1). No issues
so far.
The specific in-house version I have is at:

Thanks for testing the commit-graph feature, Ævar! I'm guessing you
have some mechanisms to ensure the 'git commit-graph write' command is
run on these machines and 'core.commitGraph' is set to true in the
config? I would love to hear how this benefits your org.
I haven't deployed any actual use of it at a wider scale, but I've done
some ad-hoc benchmarking with our internal version which has your
patches, and the results are very promising so far on the isolated test
cases where it helps (that you know about, e.g. rev-list --all).
So sorry, I don't have any meaningful testing of this, I just wanted an
easy way to ad-hoc test it & make sure it doesn't break other stuff for
now.
I also threw out most of the manual git maintenance stuff we had and
just rely on gc --auto now, so as soon as you have something to
integrate with that, along with those perf changes Peff suggested I'm
much more likely to play with it in some real way.
Thanks. Integration with 'gc --auto' is a high priority for me after the
patch lands.
The version on GitHub [1] is slightly ahead of v6 as I wait to reroll on
v2.17.0. It includes Peff's improvements to inspecting pack-indexes [2].
