"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.

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.

We don't usually bother looking at tagged objects at all
when listing. However, if "-n" is specified, we open the
objects to read the annotations of the tags. If we fail to
read an object, or if the object has zero length, we simply
silently return.
The first case is an indication of a broken or corrupt repo,
and we should notify the user of the error.
The second case is OK to silently ignore; however, the
existing code leaked the buffer returned by read_sha1_file.

When "git tag" is instructed to print lines from annotated

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

we can manage the early returns better, and make sure that
we always terminate the line.

t5541: avoid TAP test miscounting
fix push --quiet: add 'quiet' capability to receive-pack
server_supports(): parse feature list more carefully
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.

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.

The only place that the issue this series addresses was observed

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.

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.

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.

The multi-threaded git-grep code needs to serialize access
to the thread-unsafe read_sha1_file call. It does this with
a mutex that is local to builtin/grep.c.
Let's instead push this down into grep.c, where it can be
used by both builtin/grep.c and grep.c. This will let us
safely teach the low-level grep.c code tricks that involve
reading from the object db.

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.

In threaded mode, git-grep emits file breaks (enabled with context, -W

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.

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.

We have been carefully choosing feature names used in the protocol
extensions so that the vocabulary does not contain a word that is a
substring of another word, so it is not a real problem, but we have
recently added "quiet" feature word, which would mean we cannot later
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).

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
