* v4.7.2    UNRELEASED

- Tags are now shown in the logs of submodules in the status buffer
  of the super-repository.  Additionally all unpulled tags are shown
  in the headings of these logs.  1c470b54, 5f6c5afa

- When setting the value of a Git variable in a menu, the worktree
  specific value can be set or unset using a prefix argument.  See
  https://github.com/magit/forge/discussions/831.  This is still
  experimental.  2e92cad8

- In the log menu, the ~--authors~ argument now accepts multiple values.
  7851e024

- Improved the default choice when pushing to the upstream when that
  isn't configured yet.  #5638

- Hi-lock is now instructed to use overlays in Magit buffers so that
  its highlights are not lost when refreshing such buffers.

Bugfixes:

- Fixed a regression in ~magit-stage-untracked~.  #5635

- ~bug-reference-mode~ did not work in buffers used to write commit
  messages.  fe66e74a

- ~magit-branch-delete~ failed to delete remote branches on remotes
  whose name contain a slash.  #5637

* v4.7.1    2026-09-01

- In repository listings the home directory is now used as
  ~default-directory~.  874781fe

- Added ~--merge~ to ~magit-branch~ menu.  874781fe

- In Dired buffers ~magit-read-repository~ now defaults to the
  repository at point.  1b50adfc

- ~magit-gitdir~ now supports returning the common Git directory.
  #5614

- Added ~--find-copies-harder~ to diff menus because ~-C~ often doesn't
  do anything if the former isn't used as well.  Both arguments are
  hidden by default now.  #5629

Bugfixes:

- ~magit-generate-changelog~ failed inside a worktree that specifies
  the path to the Git directory using a relative path.  #5582

- ~magit-local-branch-p~ recently started using ~--branches~ but that
  was only added in Git v2.46.0.  #5625

- ~magit-gitignore-in-gitdir~ did not account for linked worktrees.
  #5614

- ~magit-xref-restore~ needlessy called ~magit-refresh-buffer~.
  ~magit-setup-buffer-internal~ already takes care of that.  #5626

- ~magit--blob-normal-mode~ bound ~after-change-major-mode-hook~ to
  suppress certain hook functions, which prevented additions to
  that hook from persisting, which can happen due to lazy loading.
  #5627

- ~--find-copies-harder~ is no longer added if ~-C~ is used, because
  the former renders the latter ineffective.  #5629

- ~magit-toplevel~ did not work inside the Git directory of a submodule.

* v4.7.0    2026-08-01

- If the region marks a single commit, ~magit-patch-create~ now creates
  a patch for that, instead of prompting.  Previously that was only
  done if multiple commit were marked.  #4734

- When reading a value for ~git diff~'s ~--find-renames~ or ~--find-copies~
  argument, the similarity index can now be specified as a percentage
  or as a fraction.  The input now has to exactly match the value, as
  used by Git; e.g., "20%" or "05".  The latter is interpreted as the
  fraction 0.05.  #4708

- Added optional DIRECTORY argument to ~magit-status-quick~, intended
  for use in third-party repository switchers.  #4636

- Added new command ~magit-log-reflog~, which shows the log for all
  objects mentioned in all reflogs.  #4748

- When ~gpg.format~ specifies a format other than openpgp, the menu
  argument ~--gpg-sign~ now acts as a boolean toggle.  Previously it
  always wanted to read an openpgp key, making it impossible to
  toggle ssh or x509 signing from the menu.  The used format is now
  shown in the menu.  #5046

- Added ~--reject~ to ~magit-am~ menu.  #5148

- Added Git v2.55's new ~--graph-lane-limit~ to log menus.  It is hidden
  by default and not available when using an older Git.  #5088

- ~magit-file-untrack~, ~magit-file-rename~, ~magit-file-delete~ and
  ~magit-do-async-shell-command~ can now act on directories.  #5247

- ~magit-process-kill~ now first tries to interrupt the process.
  If that fails, a second invocation instead kills it.  #5086

- Added help text for the ~Filter!~ status section.  #5121
