Even though "git hash-objects", which is a tool to take an

480871e09e format-patch: show base info before email signature
Any text below the "-- " for the email signature gets treated as part of
the signature, and many mail clients will trim it from the quoted text
for a reply.  Move it above the signature, so people can reply to it
more easily.

Similarly, when producing the patch as a MIME attachment, the
original code placed the base info after the attached part, which
would be discarded.  Move the base info to the end of the part,
still inside the part boundary.

Add tests for the exact format of the email signature, and add tests
to ensure that the base info appears before the email signature when
producing a plain-text output, and that it appears before the part
boundary when producing a MIME attachment.

45d2f75f91 xdiff: fix merging of hunks with -W context and -u context
If the function context for a hunk (with -W) reaches the beginning of
the next hunk then we need to merge these two -- otherwise we'd show
some lines twice, which looks strange and even confuses git apply.  We
already do this checking and merging in xdl_emit_diff(), but forget to
consider regular context (with -u or -U).

Fix that by merging hunks already if function context of the first one
touches or overlaps regular context of the second one.

4d0efa101b t1007: factor out repeated setup
We have a series of 3 CRLF tests that do exactly the same
(long) setup sequence. Let's pull it out into a common setup
test, which is shorter, more efficient, and will make it
easier to add new tests.

Note that we don't have to worry about cleaning up any of
the setup which was previously per-test; we call pop_repo
after the CRLF tests, which cleans up everything.

4543926ba8 init: reset cached config when entering new repo
After we copy the templates into place, we re-read the
config in case we copied in a default config file. But since
git_config() is backed by a cache these days, it's possible
that the call will not actually touch the filesystem at all;
we need to tell it that something has changed behind the
scenes.

Note that we also need to reset the shared_repository
config. At first glance, it seems like this should probably
just be folded into git_config_clear(). But unfortunately
that is not quite right. The shared repository value may
come from config, _or_ it may have been set manually. So
only the caller who knows whether or not they set it is the
one who can clear it (and indeed, if you _do_ put it into
git_config_clear(), then many tests fail, as we have to
clear the config cache any time we set a new config
variable).

There are three tests here. The first two actually pass
already, though it's largely luck: they just don't happen to
actually read any config before we enter the new repo.

But the third one does fail without this patch; we look at
core.sharedrepository while creating the directory, but need
to make sure the value from the template config overrides
it.

b9605bc4f2 config: only read .git/config from configured repos
When git_config() runs, it looks in the system, user-wide,
and repo-level config files. It gets the latter by calling
git_pathdup(), which in turn calls get_git_dir(). If we
haven't set up the git repository yet, this may simply
return ".git", and we will look at ".git/config".  This
seems like it would be helpful (presumably we haven't set up
the repository yet, so it tries to find it), but it turns
out to be a bad idea for a few reasons:

  - it's not sufficient, and therefore hides bugs in a
    confusing way. Config will be respected if commands are
    run from the top-level of the working tree, but not from
    a subdirectory.

  - it's not always true that we haven't set up the
    repository _yet_; we may not want to do it at all. For
    instance, if you run "git init /some/path" from inside
    another repository, it should not load config from the
    existing repository.

  - there might be a path ".git/config", but it is not the
    actual repository we would find via setup_git_directory().
    This may happen, e.g., if you are storing a git
    repository inside another git repository, but have
    munged one of the files in such a way that the
    inner repository is not valid (e.g., by removing HEAD).

We have at least two bugs of the second type in git-init,
introduced by ae5f677 (lazily load core.sharedrepository,
2016-03-11). It causes init to use git_configset(), which
loads all of the config, including values from the current
repo (if any).  This shows up in two ways:

  1. If we happen to be in an existing repository directory,
     we'll read and respect core.sharedrepository from it,
     even though it should have no bearing on the new
     repository. A new test in t1301 covers this.

  2. Similarly, if we're in an existing repo that sets
     core.logallrefupdates, that will cause init to fail to
     set it in a newly created repository (because it thinks
     that the user's templates already did so). A new test
     in t0001 covers this.

We also need to adjust an existing test in t1302, which
gives another example of why this patch is an improvement.

That test creates an embedded repository with a bogus
core.repositoryformatversion of "99". It wants to make sure
that we actually stop at the bogus repo rather than
continuing upward to find the outer repo. So it checks that
"git config core.repositoryformatversion" returns 99. But
that only works because we blindly read ".git/config", even
though we _know_ we're in a repository whose vintage we do
not understand.

After this patch, we avoid reading config from the unknown
vintage repository at all, which is a safer choice.  But we
need to tweak the test, since core.repositoryformatversion
will not return 99; it will claim that it could not find the
variable at all.

28a4e58021 diff: always try to set up the repository
If we see an explicit "--no-index", we do not bother calling
setup_git_directory_gently() at all. This means that we may
miss out on reading repo-specific config.

It's arguable whether this is correct or not. If we were
designing from scratch, making "git diff --no-index"
completely ignore the repository makes some sense. But we
are nowhere near scratch, so let's look at the existing
behavior:

  1. If you're in the top-level of a repository and run an
     explicit "diff --no-index", the config subsystem falls
     back to reading ".git/config", and we will respect repo
     config.

  2. If you're in a subdirectory of a repository, then we
     still try to read ".git/config", but it generally
     doesn't exist. So "diff --no-index" there does not
     respect repo config.

  3. If you have $GIT_DIR set in the environment, we read
     and respect $GIT_DIR/config,

  4. If you run "git diff /tmp/foo /tmp/bar" to get an
     implicit no-index, we _do_ run the repository setup,
     and set $GIT_DIR (or respect an existing $GIT_DIR
     variable). We find the repo config no matter where we
     started, and respect it.

So we already respect the repository config in a number of
common cases, and case (2) is the only one that does not.
And at least one of our tests, t4034, depends on case (1)
behaving as it does now (though it is just incidental, not
an explicit test for this behavior).

So let's bring case (2) in line with the others by always
running the repository setup, even with an explicit
"--no-index". We shouldn't need to change anything else, as the
implicit case already handles the prefix.

7d8930d903 diff: handle --no-index prefixes consistently
If we see an explicit "git diff --no-index ../foo ../bar",
then we do not set up the git repository at all (we already
know we are in --no-index mode, so do not have to check "are
we in a repository?"), and hence have no "prefix" within the
repository. A patch generated by this command will have the
filenames "a/../foo" and "b/../bar", no matter which
directory we are in with respect to any repository.

However, in the implicit case, where we notice that the
files are outside the repository, we will have chdir()'d to
the top-level of the repository. We then feed the prefix
back to the diff machinery. As a result, running the same
diff from a subdirectory will result in paths that look like
"a/subdir/../../foo".

Besides being unnecessarily long, this may also be confusing
to the user: they don't care about the subdir or the
repository at all; it's just where they happened to be when
running the command. We should treat this the same as the
explicit --no-index case.

One way to address this would be to chdir() back to the
original path before running our diff. However, that's a bit
hacky, as we would also need to adjust $GIT_DIR, which could
be a relative path from our top-level.

Instead, we can reuse the diff machinery's RELATIVE_NAME
option, which automatically strips off the prefix. Note that
this _also_ restricts the diff to this relative prefix, but
that's OK for our purposes: we queue our own diff pairs
manually, and do not rely on that part of the diff code.

4a73aaaf18 patch-id: use RUN_SETUP_GENTLY
Patch-id does not require a repository because it is just
processing the incoming diff on stdin, but it may look at
git config for keys like patchid.stable.

Even though we do not setup_git_directory(), this works from
the top-level of a repository because we blindly look at
".git/config" in this case. But as the included test
demonstrates, it does not work from a subdirectory.

We can fix it by using RUN_SETUP_GENTLY. We do not take any
filenames from the user on the command line, so there's no
need to adjust them via prefix_filename().

0e94ee9415 hash-object: always try to set up the git repository
When "hash-object" is run without "-w", we don't need to be
in a git repository at all; we can just hash the object and
write its sha1 to stdout. However, if we _are_ in a git
repository, we would want to know that so we can follow the
normal rules for respecting config, .gitattributes, etc.

This happens to work at the top-level of a git repository
because we blindly read ".git/config", but as the included
test shows, it does not work when you are in a subdirectory.

The solution is to just do a "gentle" setup in this case. We
already take care to use prefix_filename() on any filename
arguments we get (to handle the "-w" case), so we don't need
to do anything extra to handle the side effects of repo
setup.

An alternative would be to specify RUN_SETUP_GENTLY for this
command in git.c, and then die if "-w" is set but we are not
in a repository. However, the error messages generated at
the time of setup_git_directory() are more detailed, so it's
better to find out which mode we are in, and then call the
appropriate function.

645c432d61 pack-objects: use reachability bitmap index when generating non-stdout pack
Starting from 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects)
if a repository has bitmap index, pack-objects can nicely speedup
"Counting objects" graph traversal phase. That however was done only for
case when resultant pack is sent to stdout, not written into a file.

The reason here is for on-disk repack by default we want:

- to produce good pack (with bitmap index not-yet-packed objects are
  emitted to pack in suboptimal order).

- to use more robust pack-generation codepath (avoiding possible
  bugs in bitmap code and possible bitmap index corruption).

Jeff King further explains:

    The reason for this split is that pack-objects tries to determine how
    "careful" it should be based on whether we are packing to disk or to
    stdout. Packing to disk implies "git repack", and that we will likely
    delete the old packs after finishing. We want to be more careful (so
    as not to carry forward a corruption, and to generate a more optimal
    pack), and we presumably run less frequently and can afford extra CPU.
    Whereas packing to stdout implies serving a remote via "git fetch" or
    "git push". This happens more frequently (e.g., a server handling many
    fetching clients), and we assume the receiving end takes more
    responsibility for verifying the data.

    But this isn't always the case. One might want to generate on-disk
    packfiles for a specialized object transfer. Just using "--stdout" and
    writing to a file is not optimal, as it will not generate the matching
    pack index.

    So it would be useful to have some way of overriding this heuristic:
    to tell pack-objects that even though it should generate on-disk
    files, it is still OK to use the reachability bitmaps to do the
    traversal.

So we can teach pack-objects to use bitmap index for initial object
counting phase when generating resultant pack file too:

- if we take care to not let it be activated under git-repack:

  See above about repack robustness and not forward-carrying corruption.

- if we know bitmap index generation is not enabled for resultant pack:

  The current code has singleton bitmap_git, so it cannot work
  simultaneously with two bitmap indices.

  We also want to avoid (at least with current implementation)
  generating bitmaps off of bitmaps. The reason here is: when generating
  a pack, not-yet-packed objects will be emitted into pack in
  suboptimal order and added to tail of the bitmap as "extended entries".
  When the resultant pack + some new objects in associated repository
  are in turn used to generate another pack with bitmap, the situation
  repeats: new objects are again not emitted optimally and just added to
  bitmap tail - not in recency order.

  So the pack badness can grow over time when at each step we have
  bitmapped pack + some other objects. That's why we want to avoid
  generating bitmaps off of bitmaps, not to let pack badness grow.

- if we keep pack reuse enabled still only for "send-to-stdout" case:

  Because pack-to-file needs to generate index for destination pack, and
  currently on pack reuse raw entries are directly written out to the
  destination pack by write_reused_pack(), bypassing needed for pack index
  generation bookkeeping done by regular codepath in write_one() and
  friends.

  ( In the future we might teach pack-reuse code about cases when index
    also needs to be generated for resultant pack and remove
    pack-reuse-only-for-stdout limitation )

This way for pack-objects -> file we get nice speedup:

    erp5.git[1] (~230MB) extracted from ~ 5GB lab.nexedi.com backup
    repository managed by git-backup[2] via

    time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --revs erp5pack

before:  37.2s
after:   26.2s

And for `git repack -adb` packed git.git

    time echo 5c589a73 | git pack-objects --revs gitpack

before:   7.1s
after:    3.6s

i.e. it can be 30% - 50% speedup for pack extraction.

git-backup extracts many packs on repositories restoration. That was my
initial motivation for the patch.

[1] https://lab.nexedi.com/nexedi/erp5
[2] https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/git-backup

NOTE

Jeff also suggests that pack.useBitmaps was probably a mistake to
introduce originally. This way we are not adding another config point,
but instead just always default to-file pack-objects not to use bitmap
index: Tools which need to generate on-disk packs with using bitmap, can
pass --use-bitmap-index explicitly. And git-repack does never pass
--use-bitmap-index, so this way we can be sure regular on-disk repacking
remains robust.

NOTE2

`git pack-objects --stdout >file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack` is much slower
than `git pack-objects file.pack`. Extracting erp5.git pack from
lab.nexedi.com backup repository:

    $ time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --stdout --revs >erp5pack-stdout.pack

    real    0m22.309s
    user    0m21.148s
    sys     0m0.932s

    $ time git index-pack erp5pack-stdout.pack

    real    0m50.873s   <-- more than 2 times slower than time to generate pack itself!
    user    0m49.300s
    sys     0m1.360s

So the time for

    `pack-object --stdout >file.pack` + `index-pack file.pack`  is  72s,

while

    `pack-objects file.pack` which does both pack and index     is  27s.

And even

    `pack-objects --no-use-bitmap-index file.pack`              is  37s.

Jeff explains:

    The packfile does not carry the sha1 of the objects. A receiving
    index-pack has to compute them itself, including inflating and applying
    all of the deltas.

that's why for `git-backup restore` we want to teach `git pack-objects
file.pack` to use bitmaps instead of using `git pack-objects --stdout
>file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack`.

NOTE3

The speedup is now tracked via t/perf/p5310-pack-bitmaps.sh

702d1b9583 pack-objects: respect --local/--honor-pack-keep/--incremental when bitmap is in use
Since 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects) there
are two codepaths in pack-objects: with & without using bitmap
reachability index.

However add_object_entry_from_bitmap(), despite its non-bitmapped
counterpart add_object_entry(), in no way does check for whether --local
or --honor-pack-keep or --incremental should be respected. In
non-bitmapped codepath this is handled in want_object_in_pack(), but
bitmapped codepath has simply no such checking at all.

The bitmapped codepath however was allowing to pass in all those options
and with bitmap indices still being used under such conditions -
potentially giving wrong output (e.g. including objects from non-local or
.keep'ed pack).

We can easily fix this by noting the following: when an object comes to
add_object_entry_from_bitmap() it can come for two reasons:

    1. entries coming from main pack covered by bitmap index, and
    2. object coming from, possibly alternate, loose or other packs.

"2" can be already handled by want_object_in_pack() and to cover
"1" we can teach want_object_in_pack() to expect that *found_pack can be
non-NULL, meaning calling client already found object's pack entry.

In want_object_in_pack() we care to start the checks from already found
pack, if we have one, this way determining the answer right away
in case neither --local nor --honour-pack-keep are active. In
particular, as p5310-pack-bitmaps.sh shows (3 consecutive runs), we do
not do harm to served-with-bitmap clones performance-wise:

with delta timings showing they are all within noise from run to run.

In the general case we do not want to call find_pack_entry_one() more than
once, because it is expensive. This patch splits the loop in
want_object_in_pack() into two parts: finding the object and seeing if it
impacts our choice to include it in the pack. We may call the inexpensive
want_found_object() twice, but we will never call find_pack_entry_one() if we
do not need to.

I appreciate help and discussing this change with Junio C Hamano and
Jeff King.

7bcf341453 cat-file --textconv/--filters: allow specifying the path separately
There are circumstances when it is relatively easy to figure out the
object name for a given path, but not the name of the containing tree.
For example, when looking at a diff generated by Git, the object names
are recorded, but not the revision. As a matter of fact, the revisions
from which the diff was generated may not even exist locally.

In such a case, the user would have to generate a fake revision just to
be able to use --textconv or --filters.

Let's simplify this dramatically, because we do not really need that
revision at all: all we care about is that we know the path. In the
scenario described above, we do know the path, and we just want to
specify it separately from the object name.

Example usage:

	git cat-file --textconv --path=main.c 0f1937fd

The --filters option applies the convert_to_working_tree() filter for
the path when showing the contents of a regular file blob object;
the contents are written out as-is for other types of objects.

This feature comes in handy when a 3rd-party tool wants to work with
the contents of files from past revisions as if they had been checked
out, but without detouring via temporary files.

eb398797cd connect: advertized capability is not a ref
When cloning an empty repository served by standard git, "git clone" produces
the following reassuring message:

	$ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty
	Cloning into 'empty'...
	warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
	Checking connectivity... done.

Meanwhile when cloning an empty repository served by JGit, the output is more
haphazard:

	$ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty
	Cloning into 'empty'...
	Checking connectivity... done.
	warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.

This is a common command to run immediately after creating a remote repository
as preparation for adding content to populate it and pushing. The warning is
confusing and needlessly worrying.

The cause is that, since v3.1.0.201309270735-rc1~22 (Advertise capabilities
with no refs in upload service., 2013-08-08), JGit's ref advertisement includes
a ref named capabilities^{} to advertise its capabilities on, while git's ref
advertisement is empty in this case. This allows the client to learn about the
server's capabilities and is needed, for example, for fetch-by-sha1 to work
when no refs are advertised.

This also affects "ls-remote". For example, against an empty repository served
by JGit:

	$ git ls-remote git://localhost/tmp/empty
	0000000000000000000000000000000000000000        capabilities^{}

Git advertises the same capabilities^{} ref in its ref advertisement for push
but since it never did so for fetch, the client didn't need to handle this
case.  Handle it.
