push: add reflog check for "--force-if-includes" Add a check to verify if the remote-tracking ref of the local branch is reachable from one of its "reflog" entries. The check iterates through the local ref's reflog to see if there is an entry for the remote-tracking ref and collecting any commits that are seen, into a list; the iteration stops if an entry in the reflog matches the remote ref or if the entry timestamp is older the latest entry of the remote ref's "reflog". If there wasn't an entry found for the remote ref, "in_merge_bases_many()" is called to check if it is reachable from the list of collected commits. When a local branch that is based on a remote ref, has been rewound and is to be force pushed on the remote, "--force-if-includes" runs a check that ensures any updates to the remote-tracking ref that may have happened (by push from another repository) in-between the time of the last update to the local branch (via "git-pull", for instance) and right before the time of push, have been integrated locally before allowing a forced update. If the new option is passed without specifying "--force-with-lease", or specified along with "--force-with-lease=<refname>:<expect>" it is a "no-op".

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
