586aa78631 create HTML for http-protocol.txt
./Documentation/technical/http-protocol.txt was missing from TECH_DOCS in Makefile.
Add it and also improve HTML formatting while still retaining good readability of the ASCII text:
- Use monospace font instead of italicized or roman font for machine output and source text
- Use roman font for things which should be body text
- Use double quotes consistently for "want" and "have" commands
- Use uppercase "C" / "S" consistently for "client" / "server";
  also use "C:" / "S:" instead of "(C)" / "(S)" for consistency and
  to avoid having formatted "(C)" as copyright symbol in HTML
- Use only spaces and not a combination of tabs and spaces for whitespace

The current basedir compare aborts early in order to avoid futile

a0332337be t7700: do not use "touch" unnecessarily
Some versions of touch (such as /usr/ucb/touch on Solaris)
do not know about the "-r" option. This would make sense as
a feature of test-chmtime, but fortunately this fix is even
easier.

The test does not care about the timestamp of the .keep file it
creates at all, only that it exists. For such a use case, with or
without portability issues around "-r", "touch" should not be used
in the first place.

088304bf73 t7501: fix "empty commit" test with NO_PERL
t7501.9 tries to check that "git commit" will fail when the
index is unchanged. It relies on previous tests not to have
modified the index. When it was originally written, this was
always the case. However, commit c65dc35 (t7501: test the
right kind of breakage, 2012-03-30) changed earlier tests (4
and 5) to leave a modification in the index.

We never noticed, however, because t7501.7, between the two,
clears the index state as a side effect. However, that test
depends on the PERL prerequisite, and so it does not always
run. Therefore if NO_PERL is set, we do not run the
intervening test, the index is left unclean, and t7501.9
fails.

We could fix this by moving t7501.9 up in the script.
However, this patch instead leaves it in place and adds a
"git reset" before the commit. This makes the test more
explicit about its preconditions, and will future-proof it
against any other changes in the test state.

b861e235bc repack: propagate pack-objects options as strings
In the original shell version of git-repack, any options
destined for pack-objects were left as strings, and passed
as a whole. Since the C rewrite in commit a1bbc6c (repack:
rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15), we now parse
these values to integers internally, then reformat the
integers when passing the option to pack-objects.

This has the advantage that we catch format errors earlier
(i.e., when repack is invoked, rather than when pack-objects
is invoked).

It has three disadvantages, though:

  1. Our internal data types may not be the right size. In
     the case of "--window-memory" and "--max-pack-size",
     these are "unsigned long" in pack-objects, but we can
     only represent a regular "int".

  2. Our parsing routines might not be the same as those of
     pack-objects. For the two options above, pack-objects
     understands "100m" to mean "100 megabytes", but repack
     does not.

  3. We have to keep a sentinel value to know whether it is
     worth passing the option along. In the case of
     "--window-memory", we currently do not pass it if the
     value is "0". But that is a meaningful value to
     pack-objects, where it overrides any configured value.

We can fix all of these by simply passing the strings from
the user along to pack-objects verbatim. This does not
actually fix anything for "--depth" or "--window", but these
are converted, too, for consistency.

b594c975c7 Makefile: Fix compilation of Windows resource file
If the git version number consists of less than three period
separated numbers, then the Windows resource file compilation
issues a syntax error:

  $ touch git.rc
  $ make V=1 git.res
  GIT_VERSION = 1.9.rc0
  windres -O coff \
            -DMAJOR=1 -DMINOR=9 -DPATCH=rc0 \
            -DGIT_VERSION="\\\"1.9.rc0\\\"" git.rc -o git.res
  C:\msysgit\msysgit\mingw\bin\windres.exe: git.rc:2: syntax error
  make: *** [git.res] Error 1
  $

Note that -DPATCH=rc0.

The values passed via -DMAJOR=, -DMINOR=, and -DPATCH= are used in
FILEVERSION and PRODUCTVERSION statements, which expect up to four numeric
values. These version numbers are intended for machine consumption. They
are typically inspected by installers to decide whether a file to be
installed is newer than one that exists on the system, but are not used
for much else.

We can be pretty certain that there are no tools that look at these
version numbers, not even the installer of Git for Windows does.
Therefore, to fix the syntax error, fill in only the first two numbers,
which we are guaranteed to find in Git version numbers.

0cf1b72a38 git p4 test: do not pollute /tmp
Generating the submit template for p4 uses tempfile.mkstemp(),
which by default puts files in /tmp.  For a test that fails,
possibly on purpose, this is not cleaned up.  Run with TMPDIR
pointing into the trash directory so the temp files go away
with the test results.

To do this required some other minor changes.  First, the editor
is launched using system(editor + " " + template_file), using
shell expansion to build the command string.  This doesn't work
if editor has a space in it.  And is generally unwise as it's
easy to fool the shell into doing extra work.  Exec the args
directly, without shell expansion.

Second, without shell expansion, the trick of "P4EDITOR=:" used
in the tests doesn't work.  Use a real command, true, as the
non-interactive editor for testing.

40f846c35c git p4: work around p4 bug that causes empty symlinks
Damien Gérard highlights an interesting problem.  Some p4
repositories end up with symlinks that have an empty target.  It
is not possible to create this with current p4, but they do
indeed exist.

The effect in git p4 is that "p4 print" on the symlink returns an
empty string, confusing the curret symlink-handling code.

Such broken repositories cause problems in p4 as well, even with
no git involved.  In p4, syncing to a change that includes a
bogus symlink causes errors:

    //depot/empty-symlink - updating /home/me/p4/empty-symlink
    rename: /home/me/p4/empty-symlink: No such file or directory

and leaves no symlink.

In git, replicate the p4 behavior by ignoring these bad symlinks.
If, in a later p4 revision, the symlink happens to point to
something non-null, the symlink will be replaced properly.

Add a big test for all this too.

This happens to be a regression introduced by 1292df1 (git-p4:
Fix occasional truncation of symlink contents., 2013-08-08) and
appeared first in 1.8.5.  But it shows up only in p4 repositories
of dubious character, so can wait for a proper release.

200abe7458 list-objects: only look at cmdline trees with edge_hint
When rev-list is given a command-line like:

  git rev-list --objects $commit --not --all

the most accurate answer is the difference between the set
of objects reachable from $commit and the set reachable from
all of the existing refs. However, we have not historically
provided that answer, because it is very expensive to
calculate. We would have to open every tree of every commit
in the entire history.

Instead, we find the accurate set difference of the
reachable commits, and then mark the trees at the boundaries
as uninteresting. This misses objects which appear in the
trees of both the interesting commits and deep within the
uninteresting history.

Commit fbd4a70 (list-objects: mark more commits as edges in
mark_edges_uninteresting, 2013-08-16) noticed that we miss
those objects during pack-objects, and added code to examine
the trees of all of the "--not" refs given on the
command-line.  Note that this is still not the complete set
difference, because we look only at the tips of the
command-line arguments, not all of their reachable commits.
But it increases the set of boundary objects we consider,
which is especially important for shallow fetches.  So we
are trading extra CPU time for a larger set of boundary
objects, which can improve the resulting pack size for a
--thin pack.

This tradeoff probably makes sense in the context of
pack-objects, where we have set revs->edge_hint to have the
traversal feed us the set of boundary objects.  For a
regular rev-list, though, it is probably not a good
tradeoff. It is true that it makes our list slightly closer
to a true set difference, but it is a rare case where this
is important. And because we do not have revs->edge_hint
set, we do nothing useful with the larger set of boundary
objects.

This patch therefore ties the extra tree examination to the
revs->edge_hint flag; it is the presence of that flag that
makes the tradeoff worthwhile.

Here is output from the p0001-rev-list showing the
improvement in performance:

Test                                             HEAD^             HEAD

ea97002fc9 t/perf: time rev-list with UNINTERESTING commits
We time a straight "rev-list --all" and its "--object"
counterpart, both going all the way to the root. However, we
do not time a partial history walk. This patch adds an
extreme case: a walk over a very small slice of history, but
with a very large set of UNINTERESTING tips. This is similar
to the connectivity check run by git on a small fetch, or
the walk done by any pre-receive hooks that want to check
incoming commits.

This test reveals a performance regression in git v1.8.4.2,
caused by fbd4a70 (list-objects: mark more commits as edges
in mark_edges_uninteresting, 2013-08-16):

Test                                             fbd4a703^         fbd4a703

75d6e552a8 Documentation: @{-N} can refer to a commit
The @{-N} syntax always referred to the N-th last thing checked out,
which can be either a branch or a commit (for detached HEAD cases).
However, the documentation only mentioned branches.

Edit in a "/commit" in the appropriate places.

f1e9e9a4db rename_tmp_log(): limit the number of remote_empty_directories() attempts
This doesn't seem to be a likely error, but we've got the counter
anyway, so we might as well use it for an added bit of safety.

Please note that the first call to rename() is optimistic, and it is
normal for it to fail if there is a directory in the way.  So bump the
total number of allowed attempts to 4, to be sure that we can still
have at least 3 retries in the case of a race.

ae4a283e3b rename_tmp_log(): handle a possible mkdir/rmdir race
If a directory vanishes while renaming the temporary reflog file,
retry (up to 3 times).  This could happen if another process deletes
the directory created by safe_create_leading_directories() just before
we rename the file into the directory.

As far as I can tell, this race could not occur internal to git.  The
only time that a directory under $GIT_DIR/logs is deleted is if room
has to be made for a log file for a reference with the same name;
for example, in the following sequence:

    git branch foo/bar    # Creates file .git/logs/refs/heads/foo/bar
    git branch -d foo/bar # Deletes file but leaves .git/logs/refs/heads/foo/
    git branch foo        # Deletes .git/logs/refs/heads/foo/

But the only reason the last command deletes the directory is because
it wants to create a file with the same name.  So if another process
(e.g.,

    git branch foo/baz

) wants to create that directory, one of the two is doomed to failure
anyway because of a D/F conflict.

If a file or directory that we are trying to remove disappears (e.g.,
because another process has pruned it), do not consider it an error.

If hold_lock_file_for_update() fails with errno==ENOENT, it might be
because somebody else (for example, a pack-refs process) has just

c4c61c763e lock_ref_sha1_basic(): on SCLD_VANISHED, retry
If safe_create_leading_directories() fails because a file along the
path unexpectedly vanished, try again (up to 3 times).

This can occur if another process is deleting directories at the same
time as we are trying to make them.  For example, "git pack-refs
--all" tries to delete the loose refs and any empty directories that
are left behind.  If a pack-refs process is running, then it might
delete a directory that we need to put a new loose reference in.

If safe_create_leading_directories() thinks this might have happened,
then take its advice and try again (maximum three attempts).
