Version 2.34.0 of the Git source-code management system is out. "It is comprised of 834 non-merge commits since v2.33.0, contributed by 109 people, 29 of which are new faces". See this GitHub blog post for a look at some of the more significant changes in this release:

ort does just that: it’s a full-blown rewrite of the merge strategy that aims to emulate the same concepts behind recursive while avoiding many of its long-standing performance and correctness problems. In a merge containing many renames, ort outperforms recursive by 500x. For a series of similar merges (like in a rebase operation), the speedup is over 9000x, in part due to ort's ability to cache and reuse results from previous merges.
