= Upcoming breaking changes | ||
|
||
The Git project aims to ensure backwards compatibility to the best extent | ||
possible. Minor releases will not break backwards compatibility unless there is | ||
a very strong reason to do so, like for example a security vulnerability. | ||
|
||
Regardless of that, due to the age of the Git project, it is only natural to | ||
accumulate a backlog of backwards-incompatible changes that will eventually be | ||
required to keep the project aligned with a changing world. These changes fall | ||
into several categories: | ||
|
||
* Changes to long established defaults. | ||
* Concepts that have been replaced with a superior design. | ||
* Concepts, commands, configuration or options that have been lacking in major | ||
ways and that cannot be fixed and which will thus be removed without any | ||
replacement. | ||
|
||
Explicitly not included in this list are fixes to minor bugs that may cause a | ||
change in user-visible behavior. | ||
|
||
The Git project irregularly releases breaking versions that deliberately break | ||
backwards compatibility with older versions. This is done to ensure that Git | ||
remains relevant, safe and maintainable going forward. The release cadence of | ||
breaking versions is typically measured in multiple years. We had the following | ||
major breaking releases in the past: | ||
|
||
* Git 1.6.0, released in August 2008. | ||
* Git 2.0, released in May 2014. | ||
|
||
We use <major>.<minor> release numbers these days, starting from Git 2.0. For | ||
future releases, our plan is to increment <major> in the release number when we | ||
make the next breaking release. Before Git 2.0, the release numbers were | ||
1.<major>.<minor> with the intention to increment <major> for "usual" breaking | ||
releases, reserving the jump to Git 2.0 for really large backward-compatibility | ||
breaking changes. | ||
|
||
The intent of this document is to track upcoming deprecations for future | ||
breaking releases. Furthermore, this document also tracks what will _not_ be | ||
deprecated. This is done such that the outcome of discussions document both | ||
when the discussion favors deprecation, but also when it rejects a deprecation. | ||
|
||
Items should have a clear summary of the reasons why we do or do not want to | ||
make the described change that can be easily understood without having to read | ||
the mailing list discussions. If there are alternatives to the changed feature, | ||
those alternatives should be pointed out to our users. | ||
|
||
All items should be accompanied by references to relevant mailing list threads | ||
where the deprecation was discussed. These references use message-IDs, which | ||
can visited via | ||
|
||
https://lore.kernel.org/git/$message_id/ | ||
|
||
to see the message and its surrounding discussion. Such a reference is there to | ||
make it easier for you to find how the project reached consensus on the | ||
described item back then. | ||
|
||
This is a living document as the environment surrounding the project changes | ||
over time. If circumstances change, an earlier decision to deprecate or change | ||
something may need to be revisited from time to time. So do not take items on | ||
this list to mean "it is settled, do not waste our time bringing it up again". | ||
|
||
== Git 3.0 | ||
|
||
The following subsections document upcoming breaking changes for Git 3.0. There | ||
is no planned release date for this breaking version yet. | ||
|
||
Proposed changes and removals only include items which are "ready" to be done. | ||
In other words, this is not supposed to be a wishlist of features that should | ||
be changed to or replaced in case the alternative was implemented already. | ||
|
||
=== Changes | ||
|
||
* The default hash function for new repositories will be changed from "sha1" | ||
to "sha256". SHA-1 has been deprecated by NIST in 2011 and is nowadays | ||
recommended against in FIPS 140-2 and similar certifications. Furthermore, | ||
there are practical attacks on SHA-1 that weaken its cryptographic properties: | ||
+ | ||
** The SHAppening (2015). The first demonstration of a practical attack | ||
against SHA-1 with 2^57 operations. | ||
** SHAttered (2017). Generation of two valid PDF files with 2^63 operations. | ||
** Birthday-Near-Collision (2019). This attack allows for chosen prefix | ||
attacks with 2^68 operations. | ||
** Shambles (2020). This attack allows for chosen prefix attacks with 2^63 | ||
operations. | ||
+ | ||
While we have protections in place against known attacks, it is expected | ||
that more attacks against SHA-1 will be found by future research. Paired | ||
with the ever-growing capability of hardware, it is only a matter of time | ||
before SHA-1 will be considered broken completely. We want to be prepared | ||
and will thus change the default hash algorithm to "sha256" for newly | ||
initialized repositories. | ||
+ | ||
An important requirement for this change is that the ecosystem is ready to | ||
support the "sha256" object format. This includes popular Git libraries, | ||
applications and forges. | ||
+ | ||
There is no plan to deprecate the "sha1" object format at this point in time. | ||
+ | ||
Cf. <2f5de416-04ba-c23d-1e0b-83bb655829a7@zombino.com>, | ||
<20170223155046.e7nxivfwqqoprsqj@LykOS.localdomain>, | ||
<CA+EOSBncr=4a4d8n9xS4FNehyebpmX8JiUwCsXD47EQDE+DiUQ@mail.gmail.com>. | ||
|
||
=== Removals | ||
|
||
* Support for grafting commits has long been superseded by git-replace(1). | ||
Grafts are inferior to replacement refs: | ||
+ | ||
** Grafts are a local-only mechanism and cannot be shared across | ||
repositories. | ||
** Grafts can lead to hard-to-diagnose problems when transferring objects | ||
between repositories. | ||
+ | ||
The grafting mechanism has been marked as outdated since e650d0643b (docs: mark | ||
info/grafts as outdated, 2014-03-05) and will be removed. | ||
+ | ||
Cf. <20140304174806.GA11561@sigill.intra.peff.net>. | ||
|
||
== Superseded features that will not be deprecated | ||
|
||
Some features have gained newer replacements that aim to improve the design in | ||
certain ways. The fact that there is a replacement does not automatically mean | ||
that the old way of doing things will eventually be removed. This section tracks | ||
those features with newer alternatives. | ||
|
||
* The features git-checkout(1) offers are covered by the pair of commands | ||
git-restore(1) and git-switch(1). Because the use of git-checkout(1) is still | ||
widespread, and it is not expected that this will change anytime soon, all | ||
three commands will stay. | ||
+ | ||
This decision may get revisited in case we ever figure out that there are | ||
almost no users of any of the commands anymore. | ||
+ | ||
