4470ef9497 help: replace underlining "help -a" headers using hyphens with a blank line
We used to underline a header text, like this:

    This is a header
    ----------------
    content...

But calculating text length so that the dashes align with the text
could get complicated because the text could be in any charset in
translated Git.

There is no point to use this pseudo underline; simply a blank
line would do and it even makes it easier to read:

    This is a header

    content...

While at it, give translators more context to translate, e.g.
e.g.  "git commands available..." instead of "%s available..."

b55e677522 push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"
When calling "git push" without argument, we want to allow Git to do
something simple to explain and safe. push.default=matching is unsafe
when used to push to shared repositories, and hard to explain to
beginners in some contexts. It is debatable whether 'upstream' or
'current' is the safest or the easiest to explain, so introduce a new
mode called 'simple' that is the intersection of them: push to the
upstream branch, but only if it has the same name remotely. If not, give
an error that suggests the right command to push explicitely to
'upstream' or 'current'.

A question is whether to allow pushing when no upstream is configured. An
argument in favor of allowing the push is that it makes the new mode work
in more cases. On the other hand, refusing to push when no upstream is
configured encourages the user to set the upstream, which will be
beneficial on the next pull. Lacking better argument, we chose to deny
the push, because it will be easier to change in the future if someone
shows us wrong.

b27cfb0d8d git-cherry-pick: Add keep-redundant-commits option
The git-cherry-pick --allow-empty command by default only preserves empty
commits that were originally empty, i.e only those commits for which
<commit>^{tree} and <commit>^^{tree} are equal.  By default commits which are
non-empty, but were made empty by the inclusion of a prior commit on the current
history are filtered out.  This option allows us to override that behavior and
include redundant commits as empty commits in the change history.

Note that this patch changes the default behavior of git cherry-pick slightly.
Prior to this patch all commits in a cherry-pick sequence were applied and git
commit was run.  The implication here was that, if a commit was redundant, and
the commit did not trigger the fast forward logic, the git commit operation, and
therefore the git cherry-pick operation would fail, displaying the cherry pick
advice (i.e. run git commit --allow-empty).  With this patch however, such
redundant commits are automatically skipped without stopping, unless
--keep-redundant-commits is specified, in which case, they are automatically
applied as empty commits.

234587fc87 gc: use argv-array for sub-commands
git-gc executes many sub-commands. The argument list for
some of these is constant, but for others we add more
arguments at runtime. The latter is implemented by allocating
a constant extra number of NULLs, and either using a custom
append function, or just referencing unused slots by number.

As of commit 7e52f56, which added two new arguments, it is
possible to exceed the constant number of slots for "repack"
by running "git gc --aggressive", causing "git gc" to die.

This patch converts all of the static argv lists to use
argv-array. In addition to fixing the overflow caused by
7e52f56, it has a few advantages:

  1. We can drop the custom append function (which,
     incidentally, had an off-by-one error exacerbating the
     static limit).

  2. We can drop the ugly magic numbers used when adding
     arguments to "prune".

  3. Adding further arguments will be easier; you can just
     add new "push" calls without worrying about increasing
     any static limits.

e78cbf8cbb builtin/merge.c: reduce parents early
Instead of waiting until we record the parents of resulting merge, reduce
redundant parents (including our HEAD) immediately after reading them.

The change to t7602 illustrates the essence of the effect of this change.
The octopus merge strategy used to be fed with redundant commits only to
discard them as "up-to-date", but we no longer feed such redundant commits
to it and the affected test degenerates to a regular two-head merge.

And obviously the known-to-be-broken test in t6028 is now fixed.

a6801adc52 submodules: recursive fetch also checks new tags for submodule commits
Since 88a21979c (fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessary) all
fetched commits are examined if they contain submodule changes (unless
configuration or command line options inhibit that). If a newly recorded
submodule commit is not present in the submodule, a fetch is run inside
it to download that commit.

Checking new refs was done in an else branch where it wasn't executed for
tags. This normally isn't a problem because tags are only fetched with
the branches they live on, then checking the new commits in the fetched
branches for submodule commits will also process all tags. But when a
specific tag is fetched (or the refspec contains refs/tags/) commits only
reachable by tags won't be searched for submodule commits, which is a bug.

Fix that by moving the code outside the if/else construct to handle new
tags just like any other ref. The performance impact of adding tags that
most of the time lie on a branch which is checked anyway for new submodule
commit should be minimal, as since 6859de4 (fetch: avoid quadratic loop
checking for updated submodules) all ref-tips are collected first and then
fed to a single rev-list.

7e52f5660e gc: do not explode objects which will be immediately pruned
When we pack everything into one big pack with "git repack
-Ad", any unreferenced objects in to-be-deleted packs are
exploded into loose objects, with the intent that they will
be examined and possibly cleaned up by the next run of "git
prune".

Since the exploded objects will receive the mtime of the
pack from which they come, if the source pack is old, those
loose objects will end up pruned immediately. In that case,
it is much more efficient to skip the exploding step
entirely for these objects.

This patch teaches pack-objects to receive the expiration
information and avoid writing these objects out. It also
teaches "git gc" to pass the value of gc.pruneexpire to
repack (which in turn learns to pass it along to
pack-objects) so that this optimization happens
automatically during "git gc" and "git gc --auto".

135dadef71 push: error out when the "upstream" semantics does not make sense
The user can say "git push" without specifying any refspec.  When using
the "upstream" semantics via the push.default configuration, the user
wants to update the "upstream" branch of the current branch, which is the
branch at a remote repository the current branch is set to integrate with,
with this command.

However, there are cases that such a "git push" that uses the "upstream"
semantics does not make sense:

 - The current branch does not have branch.$name.remote configured.  By
   definition, "git push" that does not name where to push to will not
   know where to push to.  The user may explicitly say "git push $there",
   but again, by definition, no branch at repository $there is set to
   integrate with the current branch in this case and we wouldn't know
   which remote branch to update.

 - The current branch does have branch.$name.remote configured, but it
   does not specify branch.$name.merge that names what branch at the
   remote this branch integrates with. "git push" knows where to push in
   this case (or the user may explicitly say "git push $remote" to tell us
   where to push), but we do not know which remote branch to update.

 - The current branch does have its remote and upstream branch configured,
   but the user said "git push $there", where $there is not the remote
   named by "branch.$name.remote".  By definition, no branch at repository
   $there is set to integrate with the current branch in this case, and
   this push is not meant to update any branch at the remote repository
   $there.

The first two cases were already checked correctly, but the third case was
not checked and we ended up updating the branch named branch.$name.merge
at repository $there, which was totally bogus.

078b895fef fetch-pack: new --stdin option to read refs from stdin
If a remote repo has too many tags (or branches), cloning it over the
smart HTTP transport can fail because remote-curl.c puts all the refs
from the remote repo on the fetch-pack command line. This can make the
command line longer than the global OS command line limit, causing
fetch-pack to fail.

This is especially a problem on Windows where the command line limit is
orders of magnitude shorter than Linux. There are already real repos out
there that msysGit cannot clone over smart HTTP due to this problem.

Here is an easy way to trigger this problem:

	git init too-many-refs
	cd too-many-refs
	echo bla > bla.txt
	git add .
	git commit -m test
	sha=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
	tag=$(perl -e 'print "bla" x 30')
	for i in `seq 50000`; do
		echo $sha refs/tags/$tag-$i >> .git/packed-refs
	done

Then share this repo over the smart HTTP protocol and try cloning it:

	$ git clone http://localhost/.../too-many-refs/.git
	Cloning into 'too-many-refs'...
	fatal: cannot exec 'fetch-pack': Argument list too long

50k tags is obviously an absurd number, but it is required to
demonstrate the problem on Linux because it has a much more generous
command line limit. On Windows the clone fails with as little as 500
tags in the above loop, which is getting uncomfortably close to the
number of tags you might see in real long lived repos.

This is not just theoretical, msysGit is already failing to clone our
company repo due to this. It's a large repo converted from CVS, nearly
10 years of history.

Four possible solutions were discussed on the Git mailing list (in no
particular order):

1) Call fetch-pack multiple times with smaller batches of refs.

This was dismissed as inefficient and inelegant.

2) Add option --refs-fd=$n to pass a an fd from where to read the refs.

This was rejected because inheriting descriptors other than
stdin/stdout/stderr through exec() is apparently problematic on Windows,
plus it would require changes to the run-command API to open extra
pipes.

3) Add option --refs-from=$tmpfile to pass the refs using a temp file.

This was not favored because of the temp file requirement.

4) Add option --stdin to pass the refs on stdin, one per line.

In the end this option was chosen as the most efficient and most
desirable from scripting perspective.

There was however a small complication when using stdin to pass refs to
fetch-pack. The --stateless-rpc option to fetch-pack also uses stdin for
communication with the remote server.

If we are going to sneak refs on stdin line by line, it would have to be
done very carefully in the presence of --stateless-rpc, because when
reading refs line by line we might read ahead too much data into our
buffer and eat some of the remote protocol data which is also coming on
stdin.

One way to solve this would be to refactor get_remote_heads() in
fetch-pack.c to accept a residual buffer from our stdin line parsing
above, but this function is used in several places so other callers
would be burdened by this residual buffer interface even when most of
them don't need it.

In the end we settled on the following solution:

If --stdin is specified without --stateless-rpc, fetch-pack would read
the refs from stdin one per line, in a script friendly format.

However if --stdin is specified together with --stateless-rpc,
fetch-pack would read the refs from stdin in packetized format
(pkt-line) with a flush packet terminating the list of refs. This way we
can read the exact number of bytes that we need from stdin, and then
get_remote_heads() can continue reading from the same fd without losing
a single byte of remote protocol data.

This way the --stdin option only loses generality and scriptability when
used together with --stateless-rpc, which is not easily scriptable
anyway because it also uses pkt-line when talking to the remote server.

b2eda9bdfb commit: rephrase the error when user did not touch templated log message
When the user exited editor without editing the commit log template given
by "git commit -t <template>", the commit was aborted (correct) with an
error message that said "due to empty commit message" (incorrect).

This was because the original template support was done by piggybacking on
the check to detect an empty log message.  Split the codepaths into two
independent checks to clarify the error.

f25950f347 push: Provide situational hints for non-fast-forward errors
Pushing a non-fast-forward update to a remote repository will result in
an error, but the hint text doesn't provide the correct resolution in
every case. Give better resolution advice in three push scenarios:

1) If you push your current branch and it triggers a non-fast-forward
error, you should merge remote changes with 'git pull' before pushing
again.

2) If you push to a shared repository others push to, and your local
tracking branches are not kept up to date, the 'matching refs' default
will generate non-fast-forward errors on outdated branches. If this is
your workflow, the 'matching refs' default is not for you. Consider
setting the 'push.default' configuration variable to 'current' or
'upstream' to ensure only your current branch is pushed.

3) If you explicitly specify a ref that is not your current branch or
push matching branches with ':', you will generate a non-fast-forward
error if any pushed branch tip is out of date. You should checkout the
offending branch and merge remote changes before pushing again.

Teach transport.c to recognize these scenarios and configure push.c
to hint for them. If 'git push's default behavior changes or we
discover more scenarios, extension is easy. Standardize on the
advice API and add three new advice variables, 'pushNonFFCurrent',
'pushNonFFDefault', and 'pushNonFFMatching'. Setting any of these
to 'false' will disable their affiliated advice. Setting
'pushNonFastForward' to false will disable all three, thus preserving the
config option for users who already set it, but guaranteeing new
users won't disable push advice accidentally.

418a1435f1 fmt-merge-msg: show those involved in a merged series
As we already walk the history of the branch that gets merged to
come up with a short log, let's label it with names of the primary
authors, so that the user who summarizes the merge can easily give
credit to them in the log message.

Also infer the names of "lieutents" to help integrators at higher
level of the food-chain to give credit to them, by counting:

 * The committer of the 'tip' commit that is merged
 * The committer of merge commits that are merged

Often the first one gives the owner of the history being pulled, but
his last pull from his sublieutenants may have been a fast-forward,
in which case the first one would not be.  The latter rule will
count the integrator of the history, so together it might be a
reasonable heuristics.

There are two special cases:

 - The "author" credit is omitted when the series is written solely
   by the same author who is making the merge. The name can be seen
   on the "Author" line of the "git log" output to view the log
   message anyway.

 - The "lieutenant" credit is omitted when there is only one key
   committer in the merged branch and it is the committer who is
   making the merge. Typically this applies to the case where the
   developer merges his own branch.

When lying the author name via GIT_AUTHOR_NAME environment variable

uses the "--author" option from the command line, the command should
give the same information to the hook, and back when "git command"
was a scripted Porcelain, it did set the environment variable and
hooks can learn the author name from it.

However, when the command was reimplemented in C, the rewritten code
was not very faithful to the original, and hooks stopped getting the
authorship information given with "--author".  Fix this by exporting
the necessary environment variables.

In the while loop inside apply_patch, patch and fragments are
dynamically allocated with a calloc. However, only unused patches
are actually freed and the rest are left to leak. Since a list is
actively built up consisting of the used patches, they can simply be
iterated and freed at the end of the function.

In addition, the text in fragments were not freed, primarily because
they mostly point into a patch text that is freed as a whole. But
there are some cases where new piece of memory is allocated and
pointed by a fragment (namely, when handling a binary patch).

Introduce a free_patch bitfield to mark each fragment if its text
needs to be freed, and free patches, fragments and fragment text
that need to be freed when we are done with the input.

df44483a5d diff --stat: add config option to limit graph width
Config option diff.statGraphWidth=<width> is equivalent to
--stat-graph-width=<width>, except that the config option is ignored
by format-patch.

For the graph-width limiting to be usable, it should happen
'automatically' once configured, hence the config option.
Nevertheless, graph width limiting only makes sense when used on a
wide terminal, so it should not influence the output of format-patch,
which adheres to the 80-column standard.

af9fedc128 diff --stat: use the full terminal width
Default to the real terminal width for diff --stat output, instead
of the hard-coded 80 columns.

Some projects (especially in Java), have long filename paths, with
nested directories or long individual filenames. When files are
renamed, the filename part in stat output can be almost useless. If
the middle part between { and } is long (because the file was moved to
a completely different directory), then most of the path would be
truncated.

It makes sense to detect and use the full terminal width and display
full filenames if possible.

The are commands like diff, show, and log, which can adapt the output
to the terminal width. There are also commands like format-patch,
whose output should be independent of the terminal width. Since it is
safer to use the 80-column default, the real terminal width is only
used if requested by the calling code by setting diffopts.stat_width=-1.
Normally this value is 0, and can be set by the user only to a
non-negative value, so -1 is safe to use internally.

This patch only changes the diff builtin to use the full terminal width.

c6a13b2c86 fsck: --no-dangling omits "dangling object" information
The default output from "fsck" is often overwhelmed by informational
message on dangling objects, especially if you do not repack often, and a
real error can easily be buried.

Add "--no-dangling" option to omit them, and update the user manual to
demonstrate its use.

Based on a patch by Clemens Buchacher, but reverted the part to change
the default to --no-dangling, which is unsuitable for the first patch.
The usual three-step procedure to break the backward compatibility over
time needs to happen on top of this, if we were to go in that direction.

6c41e97557 branch: don't assume the merge filter ref exists
print_ref_list looks up the merge_filter_ref and assumes that a valid
pointer is returned. When the object doesn't exist, it tries to
dereference a NULL pointer. This can be the case when git branch
--merged is given an argument that isn't a valid commit name.

Check whether the lookup returns a NULL pointer and die with an error
if it does. Add a test, while we're at it.

d46f476cb2 merge: do not trust fstat(2) too much when checking interactiveness
The heuristic used by "git merge" to decide if it automatically gives an
editor upon clean automerge is to see if the standard input and the
standard output is the same device and is a tty, we are in an interactive
session.  "The same device" test was done by comparing fstat(2) result on
the two file descriptors (and they must match), and we asked isatty() only
for the standard input (we insist that they are the same device and there
is no point asking tty-ness of the standard output).

The stat(2) emulation in the Windows port however does not give a usable
value in the st_ino field, so even if the standard output is connected to
something different from the standard input, "The same device" test may
incorrectly return true. To accomodate it, add another isatty() check for
the standard output stream as well.

9b25a0b52e config: add include directive
It can be useful to split your ~/.gitconfig across multiple
files. For example, you might have a "main" file which is
used on many machines, but a small set of per-machine
tweaks. Or you may want to make some of your config public
(e.g., clever aliases) while keeping other data back (e.g.,
your name or other identifying information). Or you may want
to include a number of config options in some subset of your
repos without copying and pasting (e.g., you want to
reference them from the .git/config of participating repos).

This patch introduces an include directive for config files.
It looks like:

  [include]
    path = /path/to/file

This is syntactically backwards-compatible with existing git
config parsers (i.e., they will see it as another config
entry and ignore it unless you are looking up include.path).

The implementation provides a "git_config_include" callback
which wraps regular config callbacks. Callers can pass it to
git_config_from_file, and it will transparently follow any
include directives, passing all of the discovered options to
the real callback.

Include directives are turned on automatically for "regular"
git config parsing. This includes calls to git_config, as
well as calls to the "git config" program that do not
specify a single file (e.g., using "-f", "--global", etc).
They are not turned on in other cases, including:

  1. Parsing of other config-like files, like .gitmodules.
     There isn't a real need, and I'd rather be conservative
     and avoid unnecessary incompatibility or confusion.

  2. Reading single files via "git config". This is for two
     reasons:

       a. backwards compatibility with scripts looking at
          config-like files.

       b. inspection of a specific file probably means you
	  care about just what's in that file, not a general
          lookup for "do we have this value anywhere at
	  all". If that is not the case, the caller can
	  always specify "--includes".

  3. Writing files via "git config"; we want to treat
     include.* variables as literal items to be copied (or
     modified), and not expand them. So "git config
     --unset-all foo.bar" would operate _only_ on
     .git/config, not any of its included files (just as it
     also does not operate on ~/.gitconfig).

270a34438b config: stop using config_exclusive_filename
The git-config command sometimes operates on the default set
of config files (either reading from all, or writing to repo
config), and sometimes operates on a specific file. In the
latter case, we set the magic global config_exclusive_filename,
and the code in config.c does the right thing.

Instead, let's have git-config use the "advanced" variants
of config.c's functions which let it specify an individual
filename (or NULL for the default). This makes the code a
lot more obvious, and fixes two small bugs:

  1. A relative path specified by GIT_CONFIG=foo will look
     in the wrong directory if we have to chdir as part of
     repository setup. We already handle this properly for
     "git config -f foo", but the GIT_CONFIG lookup used
     config_exclusive_filename directly. By dropping to a
     single magic variable, the GIT_CONFIG case now just
     works.

  2. Calling "git config -f foo --edit" would not respect
     core.editor. This is because just before editing, we
     called git_config, which would respect the
     config_exclusive_filename setting, even though this
     particular git_config call was not about looking in the
     user's specified file, but rather about loading actual
     git config, just as any other git program would.

839de25272 config: copy the return value of prefix_filename
The prefix_filename function returns a pointer to a static
buffer which may be overwritten by subsequent calls. Since
we are going to keep the result around for a while, let's be
sure to duplicate it for safety.

I don't think this can be triggered as a bug in the current
code, but it's a good idea to be defensive, as any resulting
bug would be quite subtle.

Receive runs rev-list --verify-objects in order to detect missing
objects. However, such errors are ignored and overridden later.
Instead, consequently ignore all update commands for which an error has
already been detected.

Some tests in t5504 are obsoleted by this change, because invalid
objects are detected even if fsck is not enabled. Instead, they now test
for different error messages depending on whether or not fsck is turned
on. A better fix would be to force a corruption that will be detected by
fsck but not by rev-list.

31fd8d72f2 tag: do not show non-tag contents with "-n"
"git tag -n" did not check the type of the object it is reading the top n
lines from. At least, avoid showing the beginning of trees and blobs when
dealing with lightweight tags that point at them.

As the payload of a tag and a commit look similar in that they both start
with a header block, which is skipped for the purpose of "-n" output,
followed by human readable text, allow the message of commit objects to be
shown just like the contents of tag objects. This avoids regression for
people who have been using "tag -n" to show the log messages of commits
that are pointed at by lightweight tags.

6680a0874f drop odd return value semantics from userdiff_config
When the userdiff_config function was introduced in be58e70
(diff: unify external diff and funcname parsing code,
2008-10-05), it used a return value convention unlike any
other config callback. Like other callbacks, it used "-1" to
signal error. But it returned "1" to indicate that it found
something, and "0" otherwise; other callbacks simply
returned "0" to indicate that no error occurred.

This distinction was necessary at the time, because the
userdiff namespace overlapped slightly with the color
configuration namespace. So "diff.color.foo" could mean "the
'foo' slot of diff coloring" or "the 'foo' component of the
"color" userdiff driver". Because the color-parsing code
would die on an unknown color slot, we needed the userdiff
code to indicate that it had matched the variable, letting
us bypass the color-parsing code entirely.

Later, in 8b8e862 (ignore unknown color configuration,
2009-12-12), the color-parsing code learned to silently
ignore unknown slots. This means we no longer need to
protect userdiff-matched variables from reaching the
color-parsing code.

We can therefore change the userdiff_config calling
convention to a more normal one. This drops some code from
each caller, which is nice. But more importantly, it reduces
the cognitive load for readers who may wonder why
userdiff_config is unlike every other config callback.

There's no need to add a new test confirming that this
works; t4020 already contains a test that sets
diff.color.external.

701825de23 add -e: do not show difference in a submodule that is merely dirty
When the HEAD of the submodule matches what is recorded in the index of
the superproject, and it has local changes or untracked files, the patch
offered by "git add -e" for editing shows a diff like this:

    diff --git a/submodule b/submodule
    <header>
    -deadbeef...
    +deadbeef...-dirty

Because applying such a patch has no effect to the index, this is a
useless noise.  Generate the patch with IGNORE_DIRTY_SUBMODULES flag to
prevent such a change from getting reported.

This patch also loses the "-dirty" suffix from the output when the HEAD of
the submodule is different from what is in the index of the superproject.
As such dirtiness expressed by the suffix does not affect the result of
the patch application at all, there is no information lost if we remove
it. The user could still run "git status" before "git add -e" if s/he
cares about the dirtiness.

When "git tag" is instructed to print lines from annotated
tags via "-n", it first prints the tag name, then attempts
to parse and print the lines of the tag object, and then
finally adds a trailing newline.

If an error occurs, we return early from the function and
never print the newline, screwing up the output for the next
tag. Let's factor the line-printing into its own function so
we can manage the early returns better, and make sure that

c2d17ba3db branch --edit-description: protect against mistyped branch name
It is very easy to mistype the branch name when editing its description,
e.g.

	$ git checkout -b my-topic master
	: work work work
	: now we are at a good point to switch working something else
	$ git checkout master
	: ah, let's write it down before we forget what we were doing
	$ git branch --edit-description my-tpoic

The command does not notice that branch 'my-tpoic' does not exist.  It is
not lost (it becomes description of an unborn my-tpoic branch), but is not
very useful.  So detect such a case and error out to reduce the grief
factor from this common mistake.

This incidentally also errors out --edit-description when the HEAD points
at an unborn branch (immediately after "init", or "checkout --orphan"),
because at that point, you do not even have any commit that is part of
your history and there is no point in describing how this particular
branch is different from the branch it forked off of, which is the useful
bit of information the branch description is designed to capture.

We may want to special case the unborn case later, but that is outside the
scope of this patch to prevent more common mistakes before 1.7.9 series
gains too much widespread use.

b5c9f1c1b0 merge: do not create a signed tag merge under --ff-only option
Starting at release v1.7.9, if you ask to merge a signed tag, "git merge"
always creates a merge commit, even when the tag points at a commit that
happens to be a descendant of your current commit.

Unfortunately, this interacts rather badly for people who use --ff-only to
make sure that their branch is free of local developments. It used to be
possible to say:

	$ git checkout -b frotz v1.7.9~30
        $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9

and expect that the resulting tip of frotz branch matches v1.7.9^0 (aka
the commit tagged as v1.7.9), but this fails with the updated Git with:

	fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting.

because a merge that merges v1.7.9 tag to v1.7.9~30 cannot be created by
fast forwarding.

We could teach users that now they have to do

	$ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9^0

but it is far more pleasant for users if we DWIMmed this ourselves.

When an integrator pulls in a topic from a lieutenant via a signed tag,
even when the work done by the lieutenant happens to fast-forward, the
integrator wants to have a merge record, so the integrator will not be
asking for --ff-only when running "git pull" in such a case. Therefore,
this change should not regress the support for the use case v1.7.9 wanted
to add.

2c733fb24c parse_date(): '@' prefix forces git-timestamp
The only place that the issue this series addresses was observed
where we read "cat-file commit" output and put it in GIT_AUTHOR_DATE
in order to replay a commit with an ancient timestamp.

With the previous patch alone, "git commit --date='20100917 +0900'"
can be misinterpreted to mean an ancient timestamp, not September in
year 2010.  Guard this codepath by requring an extra '@' in front of
the raw git timestamp on the parsing side. This of course needs to
be compensated by updating get_author_ident_from_commit and the code
for "git commit --amend" to prepend '@' to the string read from the
existing commit in the GIT_AUTHOR_DATE environment variable.

b3256eb8b3 standardize and improve lookup rules for external local repos
When you specify a local repository on the command line of
clone, ls-remote, upload-pack, receive-pack, or upload-archive,
or in a request to git-daemon, we perform a little bit of
lookup magic, doing things like looking in working trees for
.git directories and appending ".git" for bare repos.

For clone, this magic happens in get_repo_path. For
everything else, it happens in enter_repo. In both cases,
there are some ambiguous or confusing cases that aren't
handled well, and there is one case that is not handled the
same by both methods.

This patch tries to provide (and test!) standard, sensible
lookup rules for both code paths. The intended changes are:

  1. When looking up "foo", we have always preferred
     a working tree "foo" (containing "foo/.git" over the
     bare "foo.git". But we did not prefer a bare "foo" over
     "foo.git". With this patch, we do so.

  2. We would select directories that existed but didn't
     actually look like git repositories. With this patch,
     we make sure a selected directory looks like a git
     repo. Not only is this more sensible in general, but it
     will help anybody who is negatively affected by change
     (1) negatively (e.g., if they had "foo.git" next to its
     separate work tree "foo", and expect to keep finding
     "foo.git" when they reference "foo").

  3. The enter_repo code path would, given "foo", look for
     "foo.git/.git" (i.e., do the ".git" append magic even
     for a repo with working tree). The clone code path did
     not; with this patch, they now behave the same.

In the unlikely case of a working tree overlaying a bare
repo (i.e., a ".git" directory _inside_ a bare repo), we
continue to treat it as a working tree (prefering the
"inner" .git over the bare repo). This is mainly because the
combination seems nonsensical, and I'd rather stick with
existing behavior on the off chance that somebody is relying
on it.

9dd5245c10 grep: pre-load userdiff drivers when threaded
The low-level grep_source code will automatically load the
userdiff driver to see whether a file is binary. However,
when we are threaded, it will load the drivers in a
non-deterministic order, handling each one as its assigned
thread happens to be scheduled.

Meanwhile, the attribute lookup code (which underlies the
userdiff driver lookup) is optimized to handle paths in
sequential order (because they tend to share the same
gitattributes files). Multi-threading the lookups destroys
the locality and makes this optimization less effective.

We can fix this by pre-loading the userdiff driver in the
main thread, before we hand off the file to a worker thread.
My best-of-five for "git grep foo" on the linux-2.6
repository went from:

  real    0m0.391s
  user    0m1.708s
  sys     0m0.584s

to:

  real    0m0.360s
  user    0m1.576s
  sys     0m0.572s

Not a huge speedup, but it's quite easy to do. The only
trick is that we shouldn't perform this optimization if "-a"
was used, in which case we won't bother checking whether
the files are binary at all.

8f24a6323e convert git-grep to use grep_source interface
The grep_source interface (as opposed to grep_buffer) will
eventually gives us a richer interface for telling the
low-level grep code about our buffers. Eventually this will
lead to things like better binary-file handling. For now, it
lets us drop a lot of now-redundant code.

The conversion is mostly straight-forward. One thing to note
is that the memory ownership rules for "struct grep_source"
are different than the "struct work_item" found here (the
former will copy things like the filename, rather than
taking ownership). Therefore you will also see some slight
tweaking of when filename buffers are released.

a mutex that is local to builtin/grep.c.

Let's instead push this down into grep.c, where it can be

78db6ea9dc grep: make locking flag global
The low-level grep code traditionally didn't care about
threading, as it doesn't do any threading itself and didn't
call out to other non-thread-safe code.  That changed with
0579f91 (grep: enable threading with -p and -W using lazy
attribute lookup, 2011-12-12), which pushed the lookup of
funcname attributes (which is not thread-safe) into the
low-level grep code.

As a result, the low-level code learned about a new global
"grep_attr_mutex" to serialize access to the attribute code.
A multi-threaded caller (e.g., builtin/grep.c) is expected
to initialize the mutex and set "use_threads" in the
grep_opt structure. The low-level code only uses the lock if
use_threads is set.

However, putting the use_threads flag into the grep_opt
struct is not the most logical place. Whether threading is
in use is not something that matters for each call to
grep_buffer, but is instead global to the whole program
(i.e., if any thread is doing multi-threaded grep, every
other thread, even if it thinks it is doing its own
single-threaded grep, would need to use the locking).  In
practice, this distinction isn't a problem for us, because
the only user of multi-threaded grep is "git-grep", which
does nothing except call grep.

This patch turns the opt->use_threads flag into a global
flag. More important than the nit-picking semantic argument
above is that this means that the locking functions don't
need to actually have access to a grep_opt to know whether
to lock. Which in turn can make adding new locks simpler, as
we don't need to pass around a grep_opt.

f26af3fcbc merge: add instructions to the commit message when editing
Before f824628 (merge: use editor by default in interactive sessions,
2012-01-10), git-merge only started an editor if the user explicitly
asked for it with --edit.  Thus it seemed unlikely that the user would
need extra guidance.

After f824628 the _normal_ thing is to start an editor.  Give at least
an indication of why we are doing it.

The sentence about justification is one of the few things about
standard git that are not agnostic to the workflow that the user
chose.  However, f824628 was proposed by Linus specifically to
discourage users from merging unrelated upstream progress into topic
branches.  So we may as well take another step in the same direction.

9049816140 clone: fix up delay cloning conditions
6f48d39 (clone: delay cloning until after remote HEAD checking -
2012-01-16) allows us to perform some checks on remote refs before the
actual cloning happens. But not all transport types support
this. Remote helper with "import" capability will not return complete
ref information until fetch is performed and therefore the clone cannot
be delayed.

foreign_vcs field in struct remote was used to detect this kind of transport
and save the result. This is a mistake because foreign_vcs is designed
to override url-based transport detection. As a result, if the same
"struct transport *" object is used on many different urls and one of
them attached remote transport, the following urls will be mistakenly
attached to the same transport. This fault is worked around by dad0b3d
(push: do not let configured foreign-vcs permanently clobbered -
2012-01-23)

To fix this, detect incomplete refs from transport_get_remote_refs()
by SHA-1. Incomplete ones must have null SHA-1 (*). Then revert
changes related to foreign_cvs field in 6f48d39 and dad0b3d.

A good thing from this change is that cloning smart http transport can
also be delayed. Earlier it falls into the same category "remote
transport, no delay".

(*) Theoretically if one of the remote refs happens to have null SHA-1,
it will trigger false alarm and the clone will not be delayed. But
that chance may be too small for us to pay attention to.

dad0b3d8e5 push: do not let configured foreign-vcs permanently clobbered
Recently, 6f48d39 (clone: delay cloning until after remote HEAD checking,
2012-01-16) tried to record if a remote helper needs to be called after
parsing the remote when transport_get() is called, by overwriting the
field meant to store the configured remote helper name in the remote
structure.

This is OK when a remote represents a single remote repository, but fails
miserably when pushing to locations with multiple URLs, like this:

    $ cat .git/config
    [remote "origin"]
        url = https://code.google.com/p/git-htmldocs/
        url = github.com:gitster/git-htmldocs.git
        push = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master
    $ git push

The second url that is supposed to use the git-over-ssh transport
mistakenly use https:// and fails with:

    error: Couldn't resolve host 'github.com:gitster' while accessing
    github.com:gitster/git-htmldocs.git/info/refs
    fatal: HTTP request failed

The right solution would probably be to dedicate a separate field to store
the detected external helper to be used, which is valid only during a
single use of transport until it is disconnected, instead of overwriting
foreign_vcs field, but in the meantime, this band-aid should suffice.

f8246281af merge: use editor by default in interactive sessions
Traditionally, a cleanly resolved merge was committed by "git merge" using
the auto-generated merge commit log message without invoking the editor.

After 5 years of use in the field, it turns out that people perform too
many unjustified merges of the upstream history into their topic branches.
These merges are not just useless, but they are often not explained well,
and making the end result unreadable when it gets time for merging their
history back to their upstream.

Earlier we added the "--edit" option to the command, so that people can
edit the log message to explain and justify their merge commits. Let's
take it one step further and spawn the editor by default when we are in an
interactive session (i.e. the standard input and the standard output are
pointing at the same tty device).

There may be existing scripts that leave the standard input and the
standard output of the "git merge" connected to whatever environment the
scripts were started, and such invocation might trigger the above
"interactive session" heuristics.  GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT environment variable
can be set to "no" at the beginning of such scripts to use the historical
behaviour while the script runs.

Note that this backward compatibility is meant only for scripts, and we
deliberately do *not* support "merge.edit = yes/no/auto" configuration
option to allow people to keep the historical behaviour.

50dd0f2fd9 grep: fix -l/-L interaction with decoration lines
In threaded mode, git-grep emits file breaks (enabled with context, -W
and --break) into the accumulation buffers even if they are not
required.  The output collection thread then uses skip_first_line to
skip the first such line in the output, which would otherwise be at
the very top.

This is wrong when the user also specified -l/-L/-c, in which case
every line is relevant.  While arguably giving these options together
doesn't make any sense, git-grep has always quietly accepted it.  So
do not skip anything in these cases.

39ef7fae9a write_remote_refs(): create packed (rather than extra) refs
write_remote_refs() creates new packed refs from references obtained
from the remote repository, which is "out of thin air" as far as the
local repository is concerned.  Previously it did this by creating
"extra" refs, then calling pack_refs() to bake them into the
packed-refs file.  Instead, create packed refs (in the packed
reference cache) directly, then call pack_refs().

Aside from being more logical, this is another step towards removing
extra refs entirely.

2baad22013 index-pack: eliminate recursion in find_unresolved_deltas
Current find_unresolved_deltas() links all bases together in a form of
tree, using struct base_data, with prev_base pointer to point to
parent node. Then it traverses down from parent to children in
recursive manner with all base_data allocated on stack.

To eliminate recursion, we simply need to put all on heap
(parse_pack_objects and fix_unresolved_deltas). After that, it's
simple non-recursive depth-first traversal loop. Each node also
maintains its own state (ofs and ref indices) to iterate over all
children nodes.

So we process one node:

 - if it returns a new (child) node (a parent base), we link it to our
   tree, then process the new node.

 - if it returns nothing, the node is done, free it. We go back to
   parent node and resume whatever it's doing.

and do it until we have no nodes to process.

15f07e061e thin-pack: try harder to use preferred base objects as base
When creating a pack using objects that reside in existing packs, we try
to avoid recomputing futile delta between an object (trg) and a candidate
for its base object (src) if they are stored in the same packfile, and trg
is not recorded as a delta already. This heuristics makes sense because it
is likely that we tried to express trg as a delta based on src but it did
not produce a good delta when we created the existing pack.

As the pack heuristics prefer producing delta to remove data, and Linus's
law dictates that the size of a file grows over time, we tend to record
the newest version of the file as inflated, and older ones as delta
against it.

When creating a thin-pack to transfer recent history, it is likely that we
will try to send an object that is recorded in full, as it is newer.  But
the heuristics to avoid recomputing futile delta effectively forbids us
from attempting to express such an object as a delta based on another
object. Sending an object in full is often more expensive than sending a
suboptimal delta based on other objects, and it is even more so if we
could use an object we know the receiving end already has (i.e. preferred
base object) as the delta base.

Tweak the recomputation avoidance logic, so that we do not punt on
computing delta against a preferred base object.

The effect of this change can be seen on two simulated upload-pack
workloads. The first is based on 44 reflog entries from my git.git
origin/master reflog, and represents the packs that kernel.org sent me git
updates for the past month or two. The second workload represents much
larger fetches, going from git's v1.0.0 tag to v1.1.0, then v1.1.0 to
v1.2.0, and so on.

The table below shows the average generated pack size and the average CPU
time consumed for each dataset, both before and after the patch:

                  dataset
            | reflog | tags
---------------------------------
     before | 53358  | 2750977
size  after | 32398  | 2668479
     change |   -39% |      -3%
---------------------------------
     before |  0.18  | 1.12
CPU   after |  0.18  | 1.15
     change |    +0% |      +3%

This patch makes a much bigger difference for packs with a shorter slice
of history (since its effect is seen at the boundaries of the pack) though
it has some benefit even for larger packs.

add some other word with "quiet" (e.g. "quiet-push"), which is awkward.

Let's make sure that we can eventually be able to do so by teaching the
clients and servers that feature words consist of non whitespace
letters. This parser also allows us to later add features with parameters
e.g. "feature=1.5" (parameter values need to be quoted for whitespaces,
but we will worry about the detauls when we do introduce them).

b7a025d921 receive-pack: move more work into write_head_info()
Move some more code from the calling site into write_head_info(), and
inline add_alternate_refs() there.  (Some more simplification is
coming, and it is easier if all this code is in the same place.)

Move some helper functions to avoid the need for forward declarations.

96890f4c42 write first for-merge ref to FETCH_HEAD first
The FETCH_HEAD refname is supposed to refer to the ref that was fetched
and should be merged. However all fetched refs are written to
.git/FETCH_HEAD in an arbitrary order, and resolve_ref_unsafe simply
takes the first ref as the FETCH_HEAD, which is often the wrong one,
when other branches were also fetched.

The solution is to write the for-merge ref(s) to FETCH_HEAD first.
Then, unless --append is used, the FETCH_HEAD refname behaves as intended.
If the user uses --append, they presumably are doing so in order to
preserve the old FETCH_HEAD.

While we are at it, update an old example in the read-tree documentation
that implied that each entry in FETCH_HEAD only has the object name, which
is not true for quite a while.

[jc: adjusted tests]

23cb5bf3b3 i18n of multi-line advice messages
Advice messages are by definition meant for human end-users, and prime
candidates for i18n/l10n. They tend to also be more verbose to be helpful,
and need to be longer than just one line.

Although we do not have parameterized multi-line advice messages yet, once
we do, we cannot emit such a message like this:

    advise(_("Please rename %s to something else"), gostak);
    advise(_("so that we can avoid distimming %s unnecessarily."), doshes);

because some translations may need to have the replacement of 'gostak' on
the second line (or 'doshes' on the first line). Some languages may even
need to use three lines in order to fit the same message within a
reasonable width.

Instead, it has to be a single advise() construct, like this:

    advise(_("Please rename %s to something else\n"
             "so that we can avoid distimming %s unnecessarily."),
           gostak, doshes);

Update the advise() function and its existing callers to

 - take a format string that can be multi-line and translatable as a
   whole;
 - use the string and the parameters to form a localized message; and
 - show each line in the result with the localization of the "hint: ".

ab1900a36e Appease Sun Studio by renaming "tmpfile"
On Solaris the system headers define the "tmpfile" name, which'll
cause Git compiled with Sun Studio 12 Update 1 to whine about us
redefining the name:

    "pack-write.c", line 76: warning: name redefined by pragma redefine_extname declared static: tmpfile     (E_PRAGMA_REDEFINE_STATIC)
    "sha1_file.c", line 2455: warning: name redefined by pragma redefine_extname declared static: tmpfile    (E_PRAGMA_REDEFINE_STATIC)
    "fast-import.c", line 858: warning: name redefined by pragma redefine_extname declared static: tmpfile   (E_PRAGMA_REDEFINE_STATIC)
    "builtin/index-pack.c", line 175: warning: name redefined by pragma redefine_extname declared static: tmpfile    (E_PRAGMA_REDEFINE_STATIC)

Just renaming the "tmpfile" variable to "tmp_file" in the relevant
places is the easiest way to fix this.

d7a10c3140 Fix an enum assignment issue spotted by Sun Studio
In builtin/fast-export.c we'd assign to variables of the
tag_of_filtered_mode enum type with constants defined for the
signed_tag_mode enum.

We'd get the intended value since both the value we were assigning
with and the one we actually wanted had the same positional within
their respective enums, but doing it this way makes no sense.

This issue was spotted by Sun Studio 12 Update 1:

    "builtin/fast-export.c", line 54: warning: enum type mismatch: op "=" (E_ENUM_TYPE_MISMATCH_OP)
