a47ba3c777 rebase -i: check for updated todo after squash and reword
While a rebase is stopped for the user to edit a commit message it can
be convenient for them to also edit the todo list. The scripted version
of rebase supported this but the C version does not. We already check to
see if the todo list has been updated by an exec command so extend this
to rewords and squashes. It only costs a single stat call to do this so
it should not affect the speed of the rebase (especially as it has just
stopped for the user to edit a message)

Note that for squashes the editor may be opened on a different pick to
the squash itself as we edit the message at the end of a chain fixups
and squashes.

450efe2d53 rebase -i: always update HEAD before rewording
If the user runs git log while rewording a commit it is confusing if
sometimes we're amending the commit that's being reworded and at other
times we're creating a new commit depending on whether we could
fast-forward or not[1]. Fix this inconsistency by always committing the
picked commit and then running 'git commit --amend' to do the reword.

The first commit is performed by the sequencer without forking git
commit and does not impact on the speed of rebase. In a test rewording
100 commits with

    GIT_EDITOR=true GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR='sed -i s/pick/reword/' \
	../bin-wrappers/git rebase -i --root

and taking the best of three runs the current master took
957ms and with this patch it took 961ms.

This change fixes rewording the new root commit when rearranging commits
with --root.

Note that the new code no longer updates CHERRY_PICK_HEAD after creating
a root commit - I'm not sure why the old code was that creating that ref
after a successful commit, everywhere else it is removed after a
successful commit.

a strbuf.  Because the strbuf is NUL-terminated and get_oid_hex will
fail if it unexpectedly encounters a NUL, the check for the length of

case, either, since on failure we call die.  Remove this check, since it
is no longer needed.

fabec2c5c3 builtin/receive-pack: switch to use the_hash_algo
The push cert code uses HMAC-SHA-1 to create a nonce.  This is a secure
use of SHA-1 which is not affected by its collision resistance (or lack
thereof).  However, it makes sense for us to use a better algorithm if
one is available, one which may even be more performant.  Futhermore,
until we have specialized functions for computing the hex value of an
arbitrary function, it simplifies the code greatly to use the same hash
algorithm everywhere.

Switch this code to use GIT_MAX_BLKSZ and the_hash_algo for computing
the push cert nonce, and rename the hmac_sha1 function to simply "hmac".

24bc1a1292 pull, fetch: add --set-upstream option
Add the --set-upstream option to git pull/fetch
which lets the user set the upstream configuration
(branch.<current-branch-name>.merge and
branch.<current-branch-name>.remote) for the current branch.

A typical use-case is:

    git clone http://example.com/my-public-fork
    git remote add main http://example.com/project-main-repo
    git pull --set-upstream main master

or, instead of the last line:

    git fetch --set-upstream main master
    git merge # or git rebase

This is mostly equivalent to cloning project-main-repo (which sets
upsteam) and then "git remote add" my-public-fork, but may feel more
natural for people using a hosting system which allows forking from
the web UI.

This functionality is analog to "git push --set-upstream".

82a46af13e archive-tar: fix pax extended header length calculation
A pax extended header record starts with a decimal number.  Its value
is the length of the whole record, including its own length.

The calculation of that number in strbuf_append_ext_header() is off by
one in case the length of the rest is close to a higher order of
magnitude.  This affects paths and link targets a bit shorter than 1000,
10000, 100000 etc. characters -- paths with a length of up to 100 fit
into the tar header and don't need a pax extended header.

The mistake has been present since the function was added by ae64bbc18c
("tar-tree: Introduce write_entry()", 2006-03-25).

Account for digits added to len during the loop and keep incrementing
until we have enough space for len and the rest.  The crucial change is
to check against the current value of len before each iteration, instead
of against its value before the loop.

e95e481f9e merge-recursive: avoid losing output and leaking memory holding that output
If opt->buffer_output is less than 2, then merge_trees(),
merge_recursive(), and merge_recursive_generic() are all supposed to
flush the opt->obuf output buffer to stdout and release any memory it
holds.  merge_trees() did not do this.  Move the logic that handles this
for merge_recursive_internal() to merge_finalize() so that all three
methods handle this requirement.

Note that this bug didn't cause any problems currently, because there
are only two callers of merge_trees() right now (a git grep for
'merge_trees(' is misleading because builtin/merge-tree.c also defines a
'merge_tree' function that is unrelated), and only one of those is
called with buffer_output less than 2 (builtin/checkout.c), but it set
opt->verbosity to 0, for which there is only currently one non-error
message that would be shown: "Already up to date!".  However, that one
message can only occur when the merge is utterly trivial (the merge base
tree exactly matches the merge tree), and builtin/checkout.c already
attempts a trivial merge via unpack_trees() before falling back to
merge_trees().

Also, if opt->buffer_output is 2, then the caller is responsible to
handle showing any output in opt->obuf and for free'ing it.  This
requirement might be easy to overlook, so add a comment to
merge-recursive.h pointing it out.  (There are currently two callers
that set buffer_output to 2, both in sequencer.c, and both of which
handle this correctly.)

8599ab4574 merge-recursive: consolidate unnecessary fields in merge_options
We provided users with the ability to state whether they wanted rename
detection, and to put a limit on how much CPU would be spent.  Both of
these fields had multiple configuration parameters for setting them,
with one being a fallback and the other being an override.  However,
instead of implementing the logic for how to combine the multiple
source locations into the appropriate setting at config loading time,
we loaded and tracked both values and then made the code combine them
every time it wanted to check the overall value.  This had a few
minor drawbacks:
  * it seems more complicated than necessary
  * it runs the risk of people using the independent settings in the
    future and breaking the intent of how the options are used
    together
  * it makes merge_options more complicated than necessary for other
    potential users of the API

Fix these problems by moving the logic for combining the pairs of
options into a single value; make it apply at time-of-config-loading
instead of each-time-of-use.

They were able to refer to it four different ways instead of only three
by using a different name in the signature for the .c file than the .h
file.  Change all of these to 'merge_base' or 'merge_bases'.

4d7101e25c merge-recursive: fix some overly long lines
No substantive code change, just add some line breaks to fix lines that
have grown in length due to various refactorings.  Most remaining lines
of excessive length in merge-recursive include error messages and it's
not clear that splitting those improves things.

724dd767b2 cache-tree: share code between functions writing an index as a tree
write_tree_from_memory() appeared to be a merge-recursive special that
basically duplicated write_index_as_tree().  The two have a different
signature, but the bigger difference was just that write_index_as_tree()
would always unconditionally read the index off of disk instead of
working on the current in-memory index.  So:

  * split out common code into write_index_as_tree_internal()

  * rename write_tree_from_memory() to write_inmemory_index_as_tree(),
    make it call write_index_as_tree_internal(), and move it to
    cache-tree.c

345480d1ed merge-recursive: don't force external callers to do our logging
Alternatively, you can view this as "make the merge functions behave
more similarly."  merge-recursive has three different entry points:
merge_trees(), merge_recursive(), and merge_recursive_generic().  Two of
these would call diff_warn_rename_limit(), but merge_trees() didn't.
This lead to callers of merge_trees() needing to manually call
diff_warn_rename_limit() themselves.  Move this to the new
merge_finalize() function to make sure that all three entry points run
this function.

Note that there are two external callers of merge_trees(), one in
sequencer.c and one in builtin/checkout.c.  The one in sequencer.c is
cleaned up by this patch and just transfers where the call to
diff_warn_rename_limit() is made; the one in builtin/checkout.c is for
switching to a different commit and in the very rare case where the
warning might be triggered, it would probably be helpful to include
(e.g. if someone is modifying a file that has been renamed in moving to
the other commit, but there are so many renames between the commits that
the limit kicks in and none are detected, it may help to have an
explanation about why they got a delete/modify conflict instead of a
proper content merge in a renamed file).

b4db8a2b76 merge-recursive: remove useless parameter in merge_trees()
merge_trees() took a results parameter that would only be written when
opt->call_depth was positive, which is never the case now that
merge_trees_internal() has been split from merge_trees().  Remove the
misleading and unused parameter from merge_trees().

While at it, add some comments explaining how the output of
merge_trees() and merge_recursive() differ.

98a1d3d888 merge-recursive: exit early if index != head
We had a rule to enforce that the index matches head, but it was found
at the beginning of merge_trees() and would only trigger when
opt->call_depth was 0.  Since merge_recursive() doesn't call
merge_trees() until after returning from recursing, this meant that the
check wasn't triggered by merge_recursive() until it had first finished
all the intermediate merges to create virtual merge bases.  That is a
potentially huge amount of computation (and writing of intermediate
merge results into the .git/objects directory) before it errors out and
says, in effect, "Sorry, I can't do any merging because you have some
local changes that would be overwritten."

Further, not enforcing this requirement earlier allowed other bugs (such
as an unintentional unconditional dropping and reloading of the index in
merge_recursive() even when no recursion was necessary), to mask bugs in
other callers (which were fixed in the commit prior to this one).

Make sure we do the index == head check at the beginning of the merge,
and error out immediately if it fails.  While we're at it, fix a small
leak in the show-the-error codepath.
