f28dd4774d git-clone: improve error message if curl program is missing or not executable
If the curl program is not available (or not executable), and git clone is
started to clone a repository through http, this is the output

 Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/puppet/.git/
 /usr/bin/git-clone: line 37: curl: command not found
 Cannot get remote repository information.
 Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?

This patch improves the error message by checking the return code when
running curl to exit immediately if it's 126 or 127; the error output now
is

 Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/puppet/.git/
 /usr/bin/git-clone: line 37: curl: command not found

042f53c569 git-gui: Provide 'uninstall' Makefile target to undo an installation
Several users have requested a "make uninstall" target be provided
in the stock git-gui Makefile so that they can undo an install
if git-gui goes to the wrong place during the initial install,
or if they are unhappy with the tool and want to remove it from
their system.

We currently assume that the complete set of files we need to delete
are those defined by our Makefile and current source directory.
This could differ from what the user actually has installed if they
installed one version then attempt to use another to perform the
uninstall.  Right now I'm just going to say that is "pilot error".
Users should uninstall git-gui using the same version of source
that they used to make the installation.  Perhaps in the future we
could read tclIndex and base our uninstall decisions on its contents.

afe2098ddd git-gui: Font chooser to handle a large number of font families
Simon Sasburg noticed that on X11 if there are more fonts than can
fit in the height of the screen Tk's native tk_optionMenu does not
offer scroll arrows to the user and it is not possible to review
all choices or to select those that are off-screen.  On Mac OS X
the tk_optionMenu works properly but is awkward to navigate if the
list is long.

This is a rewrite of our font selection by providing a new modal
dialog that the user can launch from the git-gui Options panel.
The dialog offers the user a scrolling list of fonts in a pane.
An example text shows the user what the font looks like at the size
they have selected.  But I have to admit the example pane is less
than ideal.  For example in the case of our diff font we really
should show the user an example diff complete with our native diff
syntax coloring.

On filesystems where it is appropriate to set core.filemode
to false, test 29 ("commitdiff(0): mode change") fails when
git-commit does not notice a file (execute) permission change.

A fix requires noting the new file execute permission in the

Add a function (note_chmod) which implements this idea, and
insert a call in each test that modifies the x permission.

a4503a15af Make --no-thin the default in git-push to save server resources
1) pushes happen less often than fetches, so the bandwidth saving is
   much less visible in that case overall.

2) thin packs have to be complemented with missing delta bases to be
   valid, so many received thin packs will take more disk space.

3) the bother of repacking should be distributed amongst "clients"
   i.e. fetchers and pushers as much as possible, and not the server
   being fetched or pushed, to keep disk and CPU usage low on the
   server.

This is why a fetch should get thin packs but a push should not.

Both Nico and I have been assuming that --no-thin was the default
behavior of git-push ever since Nico introduced --fix-thin into the
index-pack process, which allowed fetch and receive-pack to avoid
exploding packfiles received during transfer.  This patch finally
makes it so.

aba91192ae git-tag -s must fail if gpg cannot sign the tag.
Most of this patch code and message was written by Shawn O. Pearce.
I made some tests to know what the problem was, and then I changed
the code related with the SIGPIPE signal.

If the user has misconfigured `user.signingkey` in their .git/config
or just doesn't have any secret keys on their keyring and they ask
for a signed tag with `git tag -s` we better make sure the resulting
tag was actually signed by gpg.

Prior versions of builtin git-tag allowed this failure to slip
by without error as they were not checking the return value of
the finish_command() so they did not notice when gpg exited with
an error exit status.  They also did not fail if gpg produced an
empty output or if read_in_full received an error from the read
system call while trying to read the pipe back from gpg.

Finally, we did not actually honor any return value from the do_sign
function as it returns ssize_t but was being stored into an unsigned
long.  This caused the compiler to optimize out the die condition,
allowing git-tag to continue along and create the tag object.

However, when gpg gets a wrong username, it exits before any read was done
and then the writing process receives SIGPIPE and program is terminated.
By ignoring this signal, anyway, the function write_or_die gets EPIPE from
write_in_full and exits returning 0 to the system without a message.
Here we better call to write_in_full directly so we can fail
printing a message and return safely to the caller.

With these issues fixed `git-tag -s` will now fail to create the
tag and will report a non-zero exit status to its caller, thereby
allowing automated helper scripts to detect (and recover from)
failure if gpg is not working properly.

8938410189 git-gui: Trim trailing slashes from untracked submodule names
Oddly enough `git ls-files --others` supplies us the name of an
untracked submodule by including the trailing slash but that
same git version will not accept the name with a trailing slash
through `git update-index --stdin`.  Stripping off that final
slash character before loading it into our file lists allows
git-gui to stage changes to submodules just like any other file.

This change should give git-gui users some basic submodule support,
but it is strictly at the plumbing level as we do not actually know
about calling the git-submodule porcelain that is a recent addition
to git 1.5.3.

If `git ls-files --others` returned us the name of a directory then
it is because Git has decided that this directory itself contains a

git-gui has a minor problem with regards to symlinks that point

c63fe3b2dc git-gui: Avoid use of libdir in Makefile
Dmitry V. Levin pointed out that on GNU linux libdir is often used
in Makefiles to mean "/usr/lib" or "/usr/lib64", a directory that
is meant to hold platform-specific binary files.  Using a different
libdir meaning here in git-gui's Makefile breaks idomatic expressions
like rpm specifile "make libdir=%_libdir".

Originally I asked that the git.git Makefile undefine libdir before
it calls git-gui's own Makefile but it turns out this is very hard
to do, if not impossible.  Renaming our libdir to gg_libdir resolves
this case with a minimum amount of fuss on our part.

cff93397ab git-gui: Disable Tk send in all git-gui sessions
The Tk designers blessed us with the "send" command, which on X11
will allow anyone who can connect to your X server to evaluate any
Tcl code they desire within any running Tk process.  This is just
plain nuts.  If git-gui wants someone running Tcl code within it
then would ask someone to supply that Tcl code to it; waiting for
someone to drop any random Tcl code into us is not fantastic idea.

By renaming send to the empty name the procedure will be removed
from the global namespace and Tk will stop responding to random Tcl
evaluation requests sent through the X server.  Since there is no
facility to filter these requests it is unlikely that we will ever
consider enabling this command.

Since libsvn appears limited to only supporting one connection

ea09ea22d6 Don't allow contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir to trash existing dirs
Recently I found that doing a sequence like the following:

  git-new-workdir a b
  ...
  git-new-workdir a b

by accident will cause a (and now also b) to have an infinite cycle
in its refs directory.  This is caused by git-new-workdir trying
to create the "refs" symlink over again, only during the second
time it is being created within a's refs directory and is now also
pointing back at a's refs.

This causes confusion in git as suddenly branches are named things
like "refs/refs/refs/refs/refs/refs/refs/heads/foo" instead of the
more commonly accepted "refs/heads/foo".  Plenty of commands start
to see ambiguous ref names and others just take ages to compute.

git-clone has the same safety check, so git-new-workdir should
behave just like it.

Today I found yet another way for the "Stage Hunk" and "Unstage
Hunk" context menu actions to leave the wrong state enabled in
the UI.  The problem this time was that I connected the state
determination to the value of $::current_diff_side (the side the
diff is from).  When the user was last looking at a diff from the
index side and unstages everything the diff panel goes empty, but
the action stayed enabled as we always assumed unstaging was a
valid action.

This change moves the logic for determining when the action is
enabled away from the individual side selection, as they really
are two unrelated concepts.

The fix for this is to treat the shbang line as a Tcl list and look

we know the executable name we use the remaining elements (if any
exist) as arguments to the executable, before the script filename.

2e7766655a URL: allow port specification in ssh:// URLs
Allow port specification in ssh:// URLs in the
usual notation:

	ssh://[user@]host.domain[:<port>]/<path>

This allows git to be used over ssh-tunneling
networks.

7afa845edc rebase -m: Fix incorrect short-logs of already applied commits.
When a topic branch is rebased, some of whose commits are already
cherry-picked upstream:

    o--X--A--B--Y    <- master
     \
      A--B--Z        <- topic

then 'git rebase -m master' would report:

    Already applied: 0001 Y
    Already applied: 0002 Y

With this fix it reports the expected:

    Already applied: 0001 A
    Already applied: 0002 B

As an added bonus, this change also avoids 'echo' of a commit message,
which might contain escapements.

aecbf914c4 git-diff: resurrect the traditional empty "diff --git" behaviour
The warning message to suggest "Consider running git-status" from
"git-diff" that we experimented with during the 1.5.3 cycle turns
out to be a bad idea.  It robbed cache-dirty information from people
who valued it, while still asking users to run "update-index --refresh".
It was hoped that the new behaviour would at least have some educational
value, but not showing the cache-dirty paths like before meant that the
user would not even know easily which paths were cache-dirty, and it
made the need to refresh the index look like even more unnecessary chore.

This commit reinstates the traditional behaviour, but with a twist.

By default, the empty "diff --git" output is totally squelched out
from "git diff" output.  At the end of the command, it automatically
runs "update-index --refresh" as needed, without even bothering the
user.  In other words, people who do not care about the cache-dirtyness
do not even have to see the warning.

The traditional behaviour to see the stat-dirty output and to bypassing
the overhead of content comparison can be specified by setting the
configuration variable diff.autorefreshindex to false.
