'git submodule update --rebase' rebases your local branch on top of what

In some cases, detaching the HEAD when updating a submodule complicates
the workflow to commit to this submodule (checkout master, rebase, then
commit). For submodules that require frequent updates but infrequent
(if any) commits, a rebase can be executed directly by the git-submodule
command, ensuring that the submodules stay on their respective branches.

Windows: Skip fstat/lstat optimization in write_entry()
Commit e4c72923 (write_entry(): use fstat() instead of lstat() when file
is open, 2009-02-09) introduced an optimization of write_entry().
Unfortunately, we cannot take advantage of this optimization on Windows
because there is no guarantee that the time stamps are updated before the
file is closed:
"The only guarantee about a file timestamp is that the file time is
correctly reflected when the handle that makes the change is closed."
The failure of this optimization on Windows can be observed most easily by
running a 'git checkout' that has to update several large files. In this
case, 'git checkout' will report modified files, but infact only the
timestamps were incorrectly recorded in the index, as can be verified by a
subsequent 'git diff', which shows no change.

his updates for that.

per-se, we know that the resulting index must fully match the branch we

(but useful) feature to read and overlay more than one tree into the index
without the -m (merge) option. But the fix was not enough.
Exercising this feature exposes a longstanding bug in the code that primes
the cache-tree in the index from the tree that was read. The intention
was that when we know that the index must exactly match the tree we just
read, we prime the entire cache-tree with it.
However, the logic to detect that case incorrectly triggered if you read
two trees without -m. This resulted in a corrupted cache-tree, and
write-tree would have produced an incorrect tree object out of such an
index.

Windows: Work around intermittent failures in mingw_rename
We have replaced rename() with a version that can rename a file to a
destination that already exists. Nevertheless, many users, the author
included, observe failures in the code that are not reproducible.
The theory is that the failures are due to some other process that happens
to have opened the destination file briefly at the wrong moment. (And there
is no way on Windows to delete or replace a file that is currently open.)
The most likely candidate for such a process is a virus scanner. The
failure is more often observed while there is heavy git activity (for
example while the test suite is running or during a rebase operation).
We work around the failure by retrying the rename operation if it failed
due to ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. The retries are delayed a bit: The first only
by giving up the time slice, the next after the minimal scheduling
granularity, and if more retries are needed, then we wait some non-trivial
amount of time with exponential back-off.
