When reverting a commit, the commit being merged is not the commit
to revert itself but its parent. Add “parent of” to the conflict
hunk label to make this more clear.
The conflict hunk labels are all pieces of a single string written in
the new get_message() function. Avoid some complication by using
mempcpy to advance a pointer as the result is written.
Also free the corresponding temporary buffer (it was leaked before).
This is not important because it is a small one-time allocation. It
would become a memory leak if unnoticed when libifying revert.
This patch uses calls to strlen() instead of integer constants in some
places. GCC will compute the length at compile time; I am not sure
about other compilers, but this is not performance-critical anyway.

git checkout --merge --conflict=diff3 can be used to present conflict
hunks including text from the common ancestor. The added information
is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and merge tools tend to
understand it because it is very similar to what ‘diff3 -m’ produces.
Unlike current git, diff3 -m includes a label for the merge base on
the ||||||| line, and unfortunately, some tools cannot parse the
conflict hunks without it. Humans can benefit from a cue when
learning to interpreting the format, too. Mark the start of the text
from the old branch with a label based on the branch’s name.
git rerere does not have trouble parsing this output and its preimage
ids are unchanged since it includes its own code for recreating
conflict hunks. No other code in git tries to parse conflict hunks.

Commands using the merge_trees() machinery will present conflict hunks
in output something like what ‘diff3 -m’ produces if the
merge.conflictstyle configuration option is set to diff3. The output
lacks the name of the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output,
and tools can misparse the conflict hunks without it. Add a new
o->ancestor parameter to merge_trees() for use as a label for the
ancestor in conflict hunks.
If o->ancestor is NULL, the output format is as before. All callers
pass NULL for now.
If o->ancestor is non-NULL and both branches renamed the base file
to the same name, that name is included in the conflict hunk labels.
Even if o->ancestor is NULL I think this would be a good change, but
this patch only does it in the non-NULL case to ensure the output
format does not change where it might matter.

The added information is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and
merge tools can usually understand it without trouble because it looks

diff3 includes a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line, and it
seems some tools (for example, Emacs 22’s smerge-mode) cannot parse
conflict hunks without such a label. Humans could use help in
interpreting the output, too. So change the marker for the start of the
text from the common ancestor to include the label “base”.
git rerere’s conflict identifiers are not affected: to parse conflict
hunks, rerere looks for whitespace after the ||||||| marker rather
than a newline, and to compute preimage ids, rerere has its own code
for creating conflict hunks. No other code in git tries to parse
conflict hunks.

The labels for the three participants in a potential conflict are all
optional arguments for the xdiff merge routine; if they are NULL, then
xdl_merge() can cope by omitting the labels from its output. Move
them to the xmparam structure to allow new callers to save some
keystrokes where they are not needed.
This also has the virtue of making the xdiff merge interface more
similar to merge_trees, which might make it easier to learn.

GNU make’s target-specific variables facility has one weird facet: any
variables set for a given target apply to all of its dependencies,
too. For example, when running “make exec_cmd.o”, since exec_cmd.o
depends on GIT-CFLAGS, the variable assignment in
exec_cmd.s exec_cmd.o: ALL_CFLAGS += \
'-DGIT_EXEC_PATH="$(gitexecdir_SQ)"' \
'-DBINDIR="$(bindir_relative_SQ)"' \
'-DPREFIX="$(prefix_SQ)"'
applies when refreshing GIT-CFLAGS, and the extra options get included
in the tracked compiler flags. If an object file like this is the
first target built, GIT-CFLAGS will appear to be out of date,
resulting in useless rebuilds and the dreaded “new build flags or
prefix” message.
This does not happen with every build because GIT-CFLAGS is only
refreshed once in a given “make” run, and usually the first target
does not set any variables. When this problem does rear its head, it
is very annoying.
So put target-specific flags in a separate EXTRA_CPPFLAGS variable
that is not included in $(TRACK_CFLAGS).

(cd '/home/e477610/exptool/share/git-core/templates' && umask 022 && gtar xof -)
gtar: This does not look like a tar archive

This test is supposed to check that git-remote correctly refuses to delete
all URLS for the specified remote which match the '.*' regular expression.
Since the '*' was not protected, it was interpreted by the shell as a file
glob and expanded before being passed to git-remote. The call to
git-remote still exited non-zero in this case, and the overall test still
passed, but it exited non-zero because git-remote was passed the incorrect
number of arguments, not for the reason it was supposed to fail.

Back in 2005 when this document was written, it may have made sense to
introduce ‘git fsck’ (then ‘git fsck-objects’) as the very first example
command for new users of Git 0.99.9. Now that Git has been stable for
years and does not actually tend to eat your data, it makes significantly
less sense. In fact, it sends an entirely wrong message.
‘git gc’ is also unnecessary for the purposes of this document, especially
with gc.auto enabled by default.
The only other commands in the “Basic Repository” section were ‘git init’
and ‘git clone’. ‘clone’ is already listed in the “Participant” section,
so move ‘init’ to the “Standalone” section and get rid of “Basic

When NO_SOCKADDR_STORAGE is set for a platform, either sockaddr_in or
sockaddr_in6 is used intead. Neither of which has an ss_family member.
They have an sin_family and sin6_family member respectively. Since the
addrcmp() function accesses the ss_family member of a sockaddr_storage
struct, compilation fails on platforms which define NO_SOCKADDR_STORAGE.
Since any sockaddr_* structure can be cast to a struct sockaddr and
have its sa_family member read, do so here to workaround this issue.
