The code to squelch output from "git diff -w --name-status"
etc. for paths that "git diff -w -p" would have stayed silent
leaked output from dry-run patch generation, which has been
corrected.

* jc/diff-from-contents-fix:
  diff: make sure the other caller of diff_flush_patch_quietly() is silent

Windows "real-time monitoring" interferes with the execution of
tests and affects negatively in both correctness and performance,
which has been disabled in Gitlab CI.

* ps/gitlab-ci-disable-windows-monitoring:
  gitlab-ci: disable realtime monitoring to unbreak Windows jobs

An earlier addition to "git diff --no-index A B" to limit the
output with pathspec after the two directories misbehaved when
these directories were given with a trailing slash, which has been
corrected.

* jk/diff-no-index-with-pathspec-fix:
  diff --no-index: fix logic for paths ending in '/'

The "--short" option of "git status" that meant output for humans
and "-z" option to show NUL delimited output format did not mix
well, and colored some but not all things.  The command has been
updated to color all elements consistently in such a case.

* jk/status-z-short-fix:
  status: make coloring of "-z --short" consistent

Unicode width table update.

* tb/unicode-width-table-17:
  unicode: update the width tables to Unicode 17

Recent OpenSSH creates the Unix domain socket to communicate with
ssh-agent under $HOME instead of /tmp, which causes our test to
fail doe to overly long pathname in our test environment, which has
been worked around by using "ssh-agent -T".

* ps/t7528-ssh-agent-uds-workaround:
  t7528: work around ETOOMANY in OpenSSH 10.1 and newer

…nt-2.51

Code clean-up.

* js/unreachable-workaround-for-no-symlink-head:
  refs: forbid clang to complain about unreachable code

Doc mark-up fixes.

* kh/doc-continued-paragraph-fix:
  doc: fix accidental literal blocks

CI update.

* js/ci-github-actions-update:
  build(deps): bump actions/github-script from 7 to 8
  build(deps): bump actions/setup-python from 5 to 6
  build(deps): bump actions/checkout from 4 to 5
  build(deps): bump actions/download-artifact from 4 to 5
