Here are the topics that have been cooking. Commits prefixed with
'-' are only in 'pu' (proposed updates) while commits prefixed with
'+' are in 'next'.
The tip of 'master' is slightly past 2.6-rc2; hopefully l10n team
can work on this without updates before the end of the cycle.
You can find the changes described here in the integration branches
of the repositories listed at

[Graduated to "master"]
* ah/show-ref-usage-string (2015-08-31) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-08 at dc512c8)
+ show-ref: place angle brackets around variables in usage string
Both "git show-ref -h" and "git show-ref --help" illustrated that the
"--exclude-existing" option makes the command read list of refs
from its standard input. Change only the "show-ref -h" output to
have a pair of "<>" around the placeholder that designate an input
file, i.e. "git show-ref --exclude-existing < ".

* js/maint-am-skip-performance-regression (2015-09-09) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-14 at b669ea1)
+ am --skip/--abort: merge HEAD/ORIG_HEAD tree into index
Later versions of scripted "git am" has a performance regression in
"git am --skip" codepath, which no longer exists in the built-in
version on the 'master' front. Fix the regression in the last
scripted version that appear in 2.5.x maintenance track and older.
Will merge to 'maint' and older.

* as/config-doc-markup-fix (2015-09-12) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-14 at faa4134)
+ Documentation/config: fix formatting for branch.*.rebase and pull.rebase
Will merge to 'master'.
* et/win32-poll-timeout (2015-09-14) 1 commit
(merged to 'next' on 2015-09-14 at 308dff4)
+ poll: honor the timeout on Win32
Will merge to 'master'.
* jk/graph-format-padding (2015-09-14) 1 commit
- pretty: pass graph width to pretty formatting for use in '%>|(N)'
Redefine the way '%>|(N)' padding and the "--graph" option
interacts. It has been that the available columns to display the
log message was measured from the edge of the area the graph ended,
but with this it becomes the beginning of the entire output.
I have a suspicion that 50% of the users would appreciate this
change, and the remainder see this break their expectation. If
that is the case, we might need to introduce a similar but
different alignment operator so that this new behaviour is
available to those who want to use it, without negatively affecting
existing uses.
* jk/make-findstring-makeflags-fix (2015-09-10) 1 commit
- Makefile: fix MAKEFLAGS tests with multiple flags
Customization to change the behaviour with "make -w" and "make -s"
in our Makefile was broken when they were used together.
Will merge to 'next'.
* jk/rebase-no-autostash (2015-09-10) 2 commits
- Documentation/git-rebase: fix --no-autostash formatting
- rebase: support --no-autostash
There was no way to defeat a configured rebase.autostash variable
from the command line, as "git rebase --no-autostash" was missing.
Will merge to 'next'.
* jw/make-arflags-customizable (2015-09-10) 1 commit
- Makefile: allow $(ARFLAGS) specified from the command line
The Makefile always runs the library archiver with hardcoded "crs"
options, which was inconvenient for exotic platforms on which
people wants to use programs with totally different set of command
line options.
Will merge to 'next'.
* nd/ignore-then-not-ignore (2015-09-14) 2 commits
- dir.c: don't exclude whole dir prematurely if neg pattern may match
- dir.c: make last_exclude_matching_from_list() run til the end
Allow a later "!/abc/def" to override an earlier "/abc" that
appears in the same .gitignore file to make it easier to express
"everything in /abc
