Documentation: minor grammatical fix in rev-list-options.txt
Documentation: git-filter-branch honors replacement refs
remote-curl: Add a format check to parsing of info/refs
git-config: Remove extra whitespaces
The "notemodify" fast-import command was introduced in commit a8dd2e7
(fast-import: Add support for importing commit notes, 2009-10-09)
The commit log has slightly different description than the added
documentation. The latter is somewhat confusing. "notemodify" is a
subcommand of "commit" command used to add a note for some commit.
Does this note annotate the commit produced by the "commit" command
or a commit given by it's committish parameter? Which notes tree
does it write notes to?
The exact meaning could be deduced with old description and some
notes machinery knowledge. But let's make it more obvious. This
command is used in a context like "commit refs/notes/test" to
add or rewrite an annotation for a committish parameter. So the
advised way to add notes in a fast-import stream is:
1) import some commits (optional)
2) prepare a "commit" to the notes tree:
2.1) choose notes ref, committer, log message, etc.
2.2) create annotations with "notemodify", where each can refer to
a commit being annotated via a branch name, import mark reference,
sha1 and other expressions specified in the Documentation.

Add a 'done' command that causes fast-import to stop reading from the
stream and exit.
If the new --done command line flag was passed on the command line
(or a "feature done" declaration included at the start of the stream),
make the 'done' command mandatory. So "git fast-import --done"'s
input format will be prefix-free, making errors easier to detect when
they show up as early termination at some convenient time of the
upstream of a pipe writing to fast-import.
Another possible application of the 'done' command would to be allow a
fast-import stream that is only a small part of a larger encapsulating
stream to be easily parsed, leaving the file offset after the "done\n"
so the other application can pick up from there. This patch does not
teach fast-import to do that --- fast-import still uses buffered input
(stdio).

Restore the original branch and abort the rebase operation.
The "restore" can be misinterpreted to imply that the original branch

branch that was checked out before the rebase operation was called or
is the the branch that is being rebased (it is the latter)? Although
both issues are made clear in the DESCRIPTION section, let us also

The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already
use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span
several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse]
does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section
indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that
use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections
for consistency.
Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to
align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which
already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to
the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting

As explained in v1.7.3-rc0~13^2 (Work around em-dash handling in newer
AsciiDoc, 2010-08-23), if double dashes in names of commands are not
escaped, AsciiDoc renders them as em dashes.
While fixing that, spell the command name as "git sh-i18n--envsubst"
(2 words) instead of emphasizing the name of the binary (one
hyphenated name) and format it in italics.
The double-dash in the title should be escaped, too, to avoid spurious
em dashes in the header:
.TH "GIT\-SH\-I18N\(emENVSUB" "1" "06/26/2011" "Git 1\&.7\&.6" "Git Manual"
AsciiDoc 8.6.4 with DocBook XSL 1.76.0-RC1 copes fine and writes

AsciiDoc versions since 5.0.6 treat a double-dash surrounded by spaces
(outside of verbatim environments) as a request to insert an em dash.
Such versions also treat the three-character sequence "\--", when not
followed by another dash, as a request to insert two literal minus
signs. Thus from time to time there have been patches to add
backslashes to AsciiDoc markup to escape double-dashes that are meant
to be represent '--' characters used literally on the command line;
see v1.4.0-rc1~174, Fix up docs where "--" isn't displayed correctly,
2006-05-05, for example.
AsciiDoc 6.0.3 (2005-04-20) made life harder by also treating
double-dashes without surrounding whitespace as markup for an em dash,
though only when formatting for backends other than the manpages
(e.g., HTML). Many pages needed to be changed to use a backslash
before the "--" in names of command-line flags like "--add" (see
v0.99.6~37, Update tutorial, 2005-08-30).
AsciiDoc 8.3.0 (2008-11-29) refined the em-dash rule to avoid that
requirement. Double-dashes without surrounding spaces are not
rendered as em dashes any more unless bordered on both sides by
alphanumeric characters. The unescaped markup for option names (e.g.,
"--add") works fine, and many instances of this style have leaked into
Documentation/; git's HTML documentation contains many spurious em
dashes when formatted by an older toolchain. (This patch will not
change that.)
The upshot: "--" as an isolated word and in phrases like "git
web--browse" must be escaped if it is not to be rendered as an em dash
by current asciidoc. Use "\--" to avoid such misformatting in
sentences in which "--" represents a literal double-minus command line
argument that separates options and revs from pathspecs, and use
"{litdd}" in cases where the double-dash is embedded in the command
name. The latter is just for consistency with v1.7.3-rc0~13^2 (Work
around em-dash handling in newer AsciiDoc, 2010-08-23).

This required naming config files after the name of web server
(alternate solution would be to somehow mark for which web server was
config file generated).
Note that web servers that embed configuration in server script file,
namely webrick and plackup, and which delete "$conf" in their *_conf

Earlier 33f072f (submodule sync: Update "submodule.<name>.url" for empty

command does not update the URL if the current superproject does not have
a checkout of the submodule.
However, it did so by unconditionally registering submodule.$name.url to
every submodule in the project, even the ones that the user has never
showed interest in at all by running 'git submodule init' command. This
caused subsequent 'git submodule update' to start cloning/updating submodules
that are not interesting to the user at all.
Update the code so that the URL is updated from the .gitmodules file only

ones the user has showed interested in having a checkout.

The --include-untracked option acts like the normal "git stash save" but
also adds all untracked files in the working directory to the stash and then
calls "git clean --force --quiet" to restore the working directory to a
pristine state.
This is useful for projects that need to run release scripts. With this
option, the release scripts can be from the main working directory so one
does not have to maintain a "clean" directory in parallel just for
releasing. Basically the work-flow becomes:
$ git tag release-1.0
$ git stash --include-untracked
$ make release
$ git clean -f
$ git stash pop
"git stash" alone is not enough in this case--it leaves untracked files
lying around that might mess up a release process that expects everything to
be very clean or might let a release succeed that should actually fail (due
to a new source file being created that hasn't been committed yet).

Clone does all of init, "remote add", fetch, and checkout
without giving the user a chance to intervene and set any
configuration. This patch allows you to set config options
in the newly created repository after the clone, but before
we do any other operations.
In many cases, this is a minor convenience over something
like:
git clone git://...
git config core.whatever true
But in some cases, it can bring extra efficiency by changing
how the fetch or checkout work. For example, setting
line-ending config before the checkout avoids having to
re-checkout all of the contents with the correct line
endings.
It also provides a mechanism for passing information to remote
helpers during a clone; the helpers may read the git config
to influence how they operate.

Once the cookie file has been created, it can be passed to git with, e.g.

Often one is interested in the full --stat output only for commits which
change a few files, but not others, because larger restructuring gives a
--stat which fills a few screens.
Introduce a new option --stat-count=<count> which limits the --stat output
to the first <count> lines, followed by a "..." line. It can
also be given as the third parameter in
--stat=<width>,<name-width>,<count>.
Also, the unstuck form is supported analogous to the other two stat
parameters.

Recent versions of asciidoc will treat "->" as a
single-glyph arrow symbol, unless it is inside a literal
code block. This is a problem if we are discussing literal
output and want to show the ASCII characters.
Our usage falls into three categories:
1. Inside a code block. These can be left as-is.
2. Discussing literal output or code, but inside a
paragraph. This patch escapes these as "\->".
3. Using the arrow as a symbolic element, such as "use the
Edit->Account Settings menu". In this case, the
arrow symbol is preferable, so we leave it as-is.

The option can be used to check if read-tree with the same set of other
options like "-m" and "-u" would succeed without actually changing either
the index or the working tree.
The relevant tests in the t10?? range were extended to do a read-tree -n
before the real read-tree to make sure neither the index nor any local
files were changed with -n and the same exit code as without -n is
returned. The helper functions added for that purpose reside in the new
t/lib-read-tree.sh file.
The only exception is #13 in t1004 ("unlinking an un-unlink-able

Somebody tried "git pull" from a random place completely outside the work
tree, while exporting GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE that are set to correct
places, e.g.
GIT_WORK_TREE=$HOME/git.git
GIT_DIR=$GIT_WORK_TREE/.git
export GIT_WORK_TREE GIT_DIR
cd /tmp
git pull
At the beginning of git-pull, we check "require-work-tree" and then
"cd-to-toplevel". I _think_ the original intention when I wrote the
command was "we MUST have a work tree, our $(cwd) might not be at the
top-level directory of it", and no stronger than that. That check is a
very sensible thing to do before doing cd-to-toplevel. We check that the
place we would want to go exists, and then go there.
But the implementation of require_work_tree we have today is quite
different. I don't have energy to dig the history, but currently it says:
test "$(git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree 2>/dev/null)" = true ||
die "fatal: $0 cannot be used without a working tree."
Which is completely bogus. Even though we may happen to be just outside
of it right now, we may have a working tree that we can cd_to_toplevel
back to.
Add a function "require_work_tree_exists" that implements the check
this function originally intended (this is so that third-party scripts
that rely on the current behaviour do not have to get broken).
For now, update _no_ in-tree scripts, not even "git pull", as nobody on
the list seems to really care about the above corner case workflow that
triggered this. Scripts can be updated after vetting that they do want the
"we want to make sure the place we are going to go actually exists"
semantics.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Depending on the application, it is not necessarily an error for an object
to lack a note, especially if the only thing the caller wants to make sure
is that notes are cleared for an object. By passing this option from the
command line, the "git notes remove" command considers it a success if the
object did not have any note to begin with.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
While "xargs -n1 git notes rm" is certainly a possible way to remove notes
from many objects, this would create one notes "commit" per removal, which
is not quite suitable for seasonal housekeeping.
Allow taking more than one on the command line, and record their removal
as a single atomic event if everthing goes well.
Even though the old code insisted that "git notes rm" must be given only
one object (or zero, in which case it would default to HEAD), this
condition was not tested. Add tests to handle the new case where we feed
multiple objects, and also make sure if there is a bad input, no change
is recorded.

The "git ls-remote" uses its exit status to indicate if it successfully
talked with the remote repository. A new option "--exit-code" makes the
command exit with status "2" when there is no refs to be listed, even when
the command successfully talked with the remote repository.
This way, the caller can tell if we failed to contact the remote, or the
remote did not have what we wanted to see. Of course, you can inspect the
output from the command, which has been and will continue to be a valid
way to check the same thing.

Add a git-sh-i18n--envsubst program which is a stripped-down version
of the GNU envsubst(1) program that comes with GNU gettext for use in
the eval_gettext() fallback.
We need a C helper program because implementing eval_gettext() purely
in shell turned out to be unworkable. Digging through the Git mailing
list archives will reveal two shell implementations of eval_gettext
that are almost good enough, but fail on an edge case which is tested
for in the tests which are part of this patch.
These are the modifications I made to envsubst.c as I turned it into
sh-i18n--envsubst.c:
* Added our git-compat-util.h header for xrealloc() and friends.
* Removed inclusion of gettext-specific headers.
* Removed most of main() and replaced it with my own. The modified
version only does option parsing for --variables. That's all it
needs.
* Modified error() invocations to use our error() instead of
error(3).
* Replaced the gettext XNMALLOC(n, size) macro with just
xmalloc(n). Since XNMALLOC() only allocated char's.
* Removed the string_list_destroy function. It's redundant (also in
the upstream code).
* Replaced the use of stdbool.h (a C99 header) by doing the following
replacements on the code:
* s/bool/unsigned short int/g
* s/true/1/g
* s/false/0/g

. Each variable tells where documentation is expected to be. They do
not indicate whether documentation was actually installed.
. The output of "git --html-path" is an absolute path and can be used
in "file://$(git --html-path)/git-add.html" to name the HTML file
documenting a particular command.
. --man-path names a manual page hierarchy (e.g.,
/home/user/share/man). Its output can be passed to "man -M" or put
at the beginning of $MANPATH.
. --info-path names a directory with info files (e.g.,

This patch adds an alternative implementation of show_dirstat(), called
show_dirstat_by_line(), which uses the more expensive diffstat analysis
(as opposed to show_dirstat()'s own (relatively inexpensive) analysis)
to derive the numbers from which the --dirstat output is computed.
The alternative implementation is controlled by the new "lines" parameter
to the --dirstat option (or the diff.dirstat config variable).
For binary files, the diffstat analysis counts bytes instead of lines,
so to prevent binary files from dominating the dirstat results, the
byte counts for binary files are divided by 64 before being compared to
their textual/line-based counterparts. This is a stupid and ugly - but
very cheap - heuristic.
In linux-2.6.git, running the three different --dirstat modes:
time git diff v2.6.20..v2.6.30 --dirstat=changes > /dev/null
vs.
time git diff v2.6.20..v2.6.30 --dirstat=lines > /dev/null
vs.
time git diff v2.6.20..v2.6.30 --dirstat=files > /dev/null
yields the following average runtimes on my machine:
- "changes" (default): ~6.0 s
- "lines": ~9.6 s
- "files": ~0.1 s
So, as expected, there's a considerable performance hit (~60%) by going
through the full diffstat analysis as compared to the default "changes"
analysis (obviously, "files" is much faster than both). As such, the
"lines" mode is probably only useful if you really need the --dirstat
numbers to be consistent with the numbers returned from the other
--*stat options.
The patch also includes documentation and tests for the new dirstat mode.

Instead of having multiple interconnected dirstat-related options, teach

- Preserve the current --dirstat=<limit> (where <limit> is an integer
specifying a cut-off percentage)
- Add --dirstat=cumulative, replacing --cumulative
- Add --dirstat=files, replacing --dirstat-by-file
- Also add --dirstat=changes and --dirstat=noncumulative for specifying the
current default behavior. These allow the user to reset other --dirstat
parameters (e.g. 'cumulative' and 'files') occuring earlier on the
command line.
The deprecated options (--cumulative and --dirstat-by-file) are still

Add a DISCUSSION section to the "git format-patch" manual to encourage
people to send patches in a form that can be applied by "git am"
automatically. There are two such forms:
1. The default form in which most metadata goes in the mail header
and the message body starts with the patch description;
2. The snipsnip form in which a message starts with pertinent
discussion and ends with a patch after a "scissors" mark.
The example requires QP encoding in the "Subject:" header intended for
the mailer to give the reader a chance to reflect on that, rather than
being startled by it later. By contrast, in-body "From:" and
"Subject:" lines should be human-readable and not QP encoded.

Currently, the --dirstat analysis ignores when lines within a file are
rearranged, because the "damage" calculated by show_dirstat() is 0.
However, if the object name has changed, we already know that there is
some damage, and it is unintuitive to claim there is _no_ damage.
Teach show_dirstat() to assign a minimum amount of damage (== 1) to
entries for which the analysis otherwise yields zero damage, to still
represent that these files are changed, instead of saying that there
is no change.
Also, skip --dirstat analysis when the object names are the same (e.g. for
a pure file rename).

Similar to the 'remote.<name>.pushurl' config key for git remotes,
'pushurl' is designed to be used in cases where 'url' points to an SVN
repository via a read-only transport, to provide an alternate
read/write transport. It is assumed that both keys point to the same
repository.
The 'pushurl' key is distinct from the 'commiturl' key in that
'commiturl' is a full svn path while 'pushurl' (like 'url') is a base
path. 'commiturl' takes precendece over 'pushurl' in cases where
either might be used.
The 'pushurl' is used by git-svn's dcommit and branch commands.

Support ":/" magic string that can be prefixed to a pathspec element to
say "this names the path from the top-level of the working tree", when
you are in the subdirectory.
For example, you should be able to say:
$ edit Makefile ;# top-level
$ cd Documentation
$ edit git.txt ;# in the subdirectory
and then do one of three things, still inside the subdirectory:
$ git add -u . ;# add only Documentation/git.txt
$ git add -u :/ ;# add everything, including paths outside Documentation
$ git add -u ;# whatever the default setting is.
To truly support magic pathspec, the API needs to be restructured so that
get_pathspec() and init_pathspec() are unified into one call. Currently,
the former just prefixes the user supplied pathspec with the current
subdirectory path, and the latter takes the output from the former and
pre-parses them into a bit richer structure for easier handling. They
should become a single API function that takes the current subdirectory
path and the remainder of argv[] (after parsing --options and revision
arguments from the command line) and returns an array of parsed pathspec
elements, and "magic" should become attributes of struct pathspec_item.
This patch implements only "top" magic because it can be hacked into the
system without such a refactoring.
The syntax for magic pathspec prefix is designed to be extensible yet
simple to type to invoke a simple magic like "from the top". The parser
for the magic prefix is hooked into get_pathspec() function in this patch,
and it needs to be moved when we refactor the API.
But we have to start from somewhere.

for deleted files. When used with -B (represent total rewrite as a single

text is also omitted.
To prevent such a patch from being applied by mistake, the output is
designed not to be usable by "git apply" (or GNU "patch"); it is strictly
for human consumption.
It of course is possible to "apply" such a patch by hand, as a human can
read the intention out of such a patch. It however is impossible to apply
such a patch even manually in reverse, as the whole point of this option
is to omit the information necessary to do so from the output.

During a merge module_list returns conflicting submodules several times
(stage 1,2,3) which caused the submodules to be used multiple times in
git submodule init, sync, update and status command.
There are 5 callers of module_list; they all read (mode, sha1, stage,
path) tuple, and most of them care only about path. As a first level
approximation, it should be Ok (in the sense that it does not make things
worse than it currently is) to filter the duplicate paths from module_list
output, but some callers should change their behaviour when the merge in
the superproject still has conflicts.
Notice the higher-stage entries, and emit only one record from
module_list, but while doing so, mark the entry with "U" (not [0-3]) in
the $stage field and null out the SHA-1 part, as the object name for the
lowest stage does not give any useful information to the caller, and this
way any caller that uses the object name would hopefully barf. Then
update the codepaths for each subcommands this way:
- "update" should not touch the submodule repository, because we do not
know what commit should be checked out yet.
- "status" reports the conflicting submodules as 'U000...000' and does
not recurse into them (we might later want to make it recurse).
- The command called by "foreach" may want to do whatever it wants to do
by noticing the merged status in the superproject itself, so feed the
path to it from module_list as before, but only once per submodule.
- "init" and "sync" are unlikely things to do while the superproject is
still not merged, but as long as a submodule is there in $path, there
is no point skipping it. It might however want to take the merged
status of .gitmodules into account, but that is outside of the scope of
this topic.

The configuration created by plain --mirror is dangerous and
useless, and we now have --mirror=fetch and --mirror=push to
replace it. Let's warn the user.
One alternative to this is to try to guess which type the
user wants. In a non-bare repository, a fetch mirror doesn't
make much sense, since it would overwrite local commits. But
in a bare repository, you might use either type, or even
both (e.g., if you are acting as an intermediate drop-point
across two disconnected networks).
So rather than try for complex heuristics, let's keep it
simple. The user knows what they're trying to do, so let
them tell us.

git-remote currently has one option, "--mirror", which sets
up mirror configuration which can be used for either
fetching or pushing. It looks like this:
[remote "mirror"]
url = wherever
fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
mirror = true
However, a remote like this can be dangerous and confusing.
Specifically:
1. If you issue the wrong command, it can be devastating.
You are not likely to "push" when you meant to "fetch",
but "git remote update" will try to fetch it, even if
you intended the remote only for pushing. In either
case, the results can be quite destructive. An
unintended push will overwrite or delete remote refs,
and an unintended fetch can overwrite local branches.
2. The tracking setup code can produce confusing results.
The fetch refspec above means that "git checkout -b new
master" will consider refs/heads/master to come from
the remote "mirror", even if you only ever intend to
push to the mirror. It will set up the "new" branch to
track mirror's refs/heads/master.
3. The push code tries to opportunistically update
tracking branches. If you "git push mirror foo:bar",
it will see that we are updating mirror's
refs/heads/bar, which corresponds to our local
refs/heads/bar, and will update our local branch.
To solve this, we split the concept into "push mirrors" and
"fetch mirrors". Push mirrors set only remote.*.mirror,
solving (2) and (3), and making an accidental fetch write
only into FETCH_HEAD. Fetch mirrors set only the fetch
refspec, meaning an accidental push will not force-overwrite
or delete refs on the remote end.
The new syntax is "--mirror=<fetch|push>". For
compatibility, we keep "--mirror" as-is, setting up both
types simultaneously.

Currently, "notes add" (without -f/--force) will abort when the given object
already has existing notes. This makes sense for the modes of "git notes add"
that would necessarily overwrite the old message (when using the -m/-F/-C/-c
options). However, when no options are given (meaning the notes are created
from scratch in the editor) it is not very user-friendly to abort on existing
notes, and forcing the user to run "git notes edit".
Instead, it is better to simply "redirect" to "git notes edit" automatically,
i.e. open the existing notes in the editor and let the user edit them.
This patch does just that.
This changes the behavior of "git notes add" without options when notes
already exist for the given object, but I doubt that many users really depend
on the previous failure from "git notes add" in this case.

There is a nice shortlog-ish output of the authors there. We
also point people directly to shortlog, but of course they
might be reading the documentation online or from a binary
package of git.
The default of 7 comes from fairly early in git development, when
seven hex digits was a lot (it covers about 250+ million hash
values). Back then I thought that 65k revisions was a lot (it was what
we were about to hit in BK), and each revision tends to be about 5-10
new objects or so, so a million objects was a big number.
These days, the kernel isn't even the largest git project, and even
the kernel has about 220k revisions (_much_ bigger than the BK tree
ever was) and we are approaching two million objects. At that point,
seven hex digits is still unique for a lot of them, but when we're
talking about just two orders of magnitude difference between number
of objects and the hash size, there _will_ be collisions in truncated
hash values. It's no longer even close to unrealistic - it happens all
the time.
We should both increase the default abbrev that was unrealistically
small, _and_ add a way for people to set their own default per-project
in the git config file.
This is the first step to first make it configurable; the default of 7
is not raised yet.

The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.
This reverts commit 72a5b561fc, as adding
fixed number of hexdigits more than necessary to make one object name
locally unique does not help in futureproofing the uniqueness of names
we generate today.

When looking for submodules where new commits have been recorded in the
superproject ignore those cases where the submodules commits are already
present locally. This can happen e.g. when the submodule has been rewound

as the commit recorded in the newly fetched superproject commit has
already been fetched earlier into the submodule.

Until now the --recurse-submodules option could only be used to either
fetch all populated submodules recursively or to disable recursion
completely. As fetch and pull now by default just fetch those submodules
for which new commits have been fetched in the superproject, a command
line option to enforce that behavior is needed to be able to override
configuration settings.

To be able to access all commits of populated submodules referenced by the
superproject it is sufficient to only then let "git fetch" recurse into a
submodule when the new commits fetched in the superproject record new
commits for it. Having these commits present is extremely useful when
using the "--submodule" option to "git diff" (which is what "git gui" and
"gitk" do since 1.6.6), as all submodule commits needed for creating a
descriptive output can be accessed. Also merging submodule commits (added
in 1.7.3) depends on the submodule commits in question being present to
work. Last but not least this enables disconnected operation when using
submodules, as all commits necessary for a successful "git submodule
update -N" will have been fetched automatically. So we choose this mode as
the default for fetch and pull.
Before a new or changed ref from upstream is updated in update_local_ref()
"git rev-list <new-sha1> --not --branches --remotes" is used to determine
all newly fetched commits. These are then walked and diffed against their
parent(s) to see if a submodule has been changed. If that is the case, its
path is stored to be fetched after the superproject fetch is completed.
Using the "--recurse-submodules" or the "--no-recurse-submodules" option
disables the examination of the fetched refs because the result will be
ignored anyway.
There is currently no infrastructure for storing deleted and new
submodules in the .git directory of the superproject. That's why fetch and
pull for now only fetch submodules that are already checked out and are
not renamed.
In t7403 the "--no-recurse-submodules" argument had to be added to "git
pull" to avoid failure because of the moved upstream submodule repo.

Lazy fast-import frontend authors that want to rely on the backend to
keep track of the content of the imported trees _almost_ have what
they need in the 'cat-blob' command (v1.7.4-rc0~30^2~3, 2010-11-28).
But it is not quite enough, since
(1) cat-blob can be used to retrieve the content of files, but
not their mode, and
(2) using cat-blob requires the frontend to keep track of a name
(mark number or object id) for each blob to be retrieved
Introduce an 'ls' command to complement cat-blob and take care of the
remaining needs. The 'ls' command finds what is at a given path
within a given tree-ish (tag, commit, or tree):
'ls' SP <dataref> SP <path> LF
or in fast-import's active commit:
'ls' SP <path> LF
The response is a single line sent through the cat-blob channel,
imitating ls-tree output. So for example:
FE> ls :1 Documentation
gfi> 040000 tree 9e6c2b599341d28a2a375f8207507e0a2a627fe9 Documentation
FE> ls 9e6c2b599341d28a2a375f8207507e0a2a627fe9 git-fast-import.txt
gfi> 100644 blob 4f92954396e3f0f97e75b6838a5635b583708870 git-fast-import.txt
FE> ls :1 RelNotes
gfi> 120000 blob b942e49944 RelNotes
FE> cat-blob b942e49944
gfi> b942e49944 blob 32
gfi> Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.4.txt
The most interesting parts of the reply are the first word, which is
a 6-digit octal mode (regular file, executable, symlink, directory,
or submodule), and the part from the second space to the tab, which is
a <dataref> that can be used in later cat-blob, ls, and filemodify (M)
commands to refer to the content (blob, tree, or commit) at that path.
If there is nothing there, the response is "missing some/path".
The intent is for this command to be used to read files from the
active commit, so a frontend can apply patches to them, and to copy
files and directories from previous revisions.
For example, proposed updates to svn-fe use this command in place of
its internal representation of the repository directory structure.
This simplifies the frontend a great deal and means support for
resuming an import in a separate fast-import run (i.e., incremental
import) is basically free.

Previously the user was advised to use commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD after
a conflicting cherry-pick. While this would preserve the original
commit's authorship, it would sadly discard cherry-pick's carefully
crafted MERGE_MSG (which contains the list of conflicts as well as the
original commit-id in the case of cherry-pick -x).
On the other hand, if a bare 'commit' were performed, it would preserve
the MERGE_MSG while resetting the authorship.
In other words, there was no way to simultaneously take the authorship
from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
This change fixes that situation. A bare 'commit' will now take the
authorship from CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and the commit message from MERGE_MSG.
If the user wishes to reset authorship, that must now be done explicitly
via --reset-author.
A side-benefit of passing commit authorship along this way is that we
can eliminate redundant authorship parsing code from revert.c.

When a cherry-pick conflicts git advises:
$ git commit -c <original commit id>
to preserve the original commit message and authorship. Instead, let's
record the original commit id in CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and advise:
$ git commit -c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
A later patch teaches git to handle the '-c CHERRY_PICK_HEAD' part.
Note that we record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD even in the case where there
are no conflicts so that we may use it to communicate authorship to
commit; this will then allow us to remove set_author_ident_env from
revert.c. However, we do not record CHERRY_PICK_HEAD when --no-commit
is used, as presumably the user intends to further edit the commit
and possibly even cherry-pick additional commits on top.

Users are sometimes confused with two different types of "tracking" behavior
in Git: "remote-tracking" branches (e.g. refs/remotes/*/*) versus the
merge/rebase relationship between a local branch and its @{upstream}
(controlled by branch.foo.remote and branch.foo.merge config settings).
When the push.default is set to 'tracking', it specifies that a branch should
be pushed to its @{upstream} branch. In other words, setting push.default to
'tracking' applies only to the latter of the above two types of "tracking"
behavior.
In order to make this more understandable to the user, we rename the
push.default == 'tracking' option to push.default == 'upstream'.
push.default == 'tracking' is left as a deprecated synonym for 'upstream'.

'git rebase' without arguments is currently not supported. Make it
default to 'git rebase @{upstream}'. That is also what 'git pull
[--rebase]' defaults to, so it only makes sense that 'git rebase'
defaults to the same thing.
Defaulting to @{upstream} will make it possible to run e.g. 'git
rebase -i' without arguments, which is probably a quite common use
case. It also improves the scenario where you have multiple branches
that rebase against a remote-tracking branch, where you currently have
to choose between the extra network delay of 'git pull' or the
slightly awkward keys to enter 'git rebase @{u}'.
The error reporting when no upstream is configured for the current
branch or when no branch is checked out is reused from git-pull.sh. A
function is extracted into git-parse-remote.sh for this purpose.

Here is a 'feature' command for streams to use to require support for
the notemodify (N) command.
When the 'feature' facility was introduced (v1.7.0-rc0~95^2~4,
2009-12-04), the notes import feature was old news (v1.6.6-rc0~21^2~8,
2009-10-09) and it was not obvious it deserved to be a named feature.
But now that is clear, since all major non-git fast-import backends
lack support for it.
Details: on git version with this patch applied, any "feature notes"
command in the features/options section at the beginning of a stream
will be treated as a no-op. On fast-import implementations without
the feature (and older git versions), the command instead errors out
with a message like
This version of fast-import does not support feature notes.
So by declaring use of notes at the beginning of a stream, frontends
can avoid wasting time and other resources when the backend does not
support notes. (This would be especially important for backends that
do not support rewinding history after a botched import.)
