6cd3c05327 format-patch: RFC 2047 says multi-octet character may not be split
Even though an earlier attempt (bafc478..41dd00bad) cleaned
up RFC 2047 encoding, pretty.c::add_rfc2047() still decides
where to split the output line by going through the input
one byte at a time, and potentially splits a character in
the middle.  A subject line may end up showing like this:

     ".... fö?? bar".   (instead of  ".... föö bar".)

if split incorrectly.

RFC 2047, section 5 (3) explicitly forbids such beaviour

    Each 'encoded-word' MUST represent an integral number of
    characters.  A multi-octet character may not be split across
    adjacent 'encoded- word's.

that means that e.g. for

    Subject: .... föö bar

encoding

    Subject: =?UTF-8?q?....=20f=C3=B6=C3=B6?=
     =?UTF-8?q?=20bar?=

is correct, and

    Subject: =?UTF-8?q?....=20f=C3=B6=C3?=      <-- NOTE ö is broken here
     =?UTF-8?q?=B6=20bar?=

is not, because "ö" character UTF-8 encoding C3 B6 is split here across
adjacent encoded words.

To fix the problem, make the loop grab one _character_ at a time and
determine its output length to see where to break the output line.  Note
that this version only knows about UTF-8, but the logic to grab one
character is abstracted out in mbs_chrlen() function to make it possible
to extend it to other encodings with the help of iconv in the future.

2cd83d10bb setup: suppress implicit "." work-tree for bare repos
If an explicit GIT_DIR is given without a working tree, we
implicitly assume that the current working directory should
be used as the working tree. E.g.,:

  GIT_DIR=/some/repo.git git status

would compare against the cwd.

Unfortunately, we fool this rule for sub-invocations of git
by setting GIT_DIR internally ourselves. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails, as we expect
  git config alias.st status
  git status ;# does not fail, but should

What happens is that we run setup_git_directory when doing
alias lookup (since we need to see the config), set GIT_DIR
as a result, and then leave GIT_WORK_TREE blank (because we
do not have one). Then when we actually run the status
command, we do setup_git_directory again, which sees our
explicit GIT_DIR and uses the cwd as an implicit worktree.

It's tempting to argue that we should be suppressing that
second invocation of setup_git_directory, as it could use
the values we already found in memory. However, the problem
still exists for sub-processes (e.g., if "git status" were
an external command).

You can see another example with the "--bare" option, which
sets GIT_DIR explicitly. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails
  git --bare status ;# does NOT fail

We need some way of telling sub-processes "even though
GIT_DIR is set, do not use cwd as an implicit working tree".
We could do it by putting a special token into
GIT_WORK_TREE, but the obvious choice (an empty string) has
some portability problems.

Instead, we add a new boolean variable, GIT_IMPLICIT_WORK_TREE,
which suppresses the use of cwd as a working tree when
GIT_DIR is set. We trigger the new variable when we know we
are in a bare setting.

The variable is left intentionally undocumented, as this is
an internal detail (for now, anyway). If somebody comes up
with a good alternate use for it, and once we are confident
we have shaken any bugs out of it, we can consider promoting
it further.

a6f7f9a325 environment: add GIT_PREFIX to local_repo_env
The GIT_PREFIX variable is set based on our location within
the working tree. It should therefore be cleared whenever
GIT_WORK_TREE is cleared.

In practice, this doesn't cause any bugs, because none of
the sub-programs we invoke with local_repo_env cleared
actually care about GIT_PREFIX. But this is the right thing
to do, and future proofs us against that assumption changing.

While we're at it, let's define a GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT
macro; this avoids repetition of the string literal, which
can help catch any spelling mistakes in the code.

98f85ff4b6 reflog: add for_each_reflog_ent_reverse() API
"git checkout -" is a short-hand for "git checkout @{-1}" and the
"@{nth}" notation for a negative number is to find nth previous
checkout in the reflog of the HEAD to determine the name of the
branch the user was on.  We would want to find the nth most recent
reflog entry that matches "checkout: moving from X to Y" for this.

Unfortunately, reflog is implemented as an append-only file, and the
API to iterate over its entries, for_each_reflog_ent(), reads the
file in order, giving the entries from the oldest to newer.  For the
purpose of finding nth most recent one, this API forces us to record
the last n entries in a rotating buffer and give the result out only
after we read everything.  To optimize for a common case of finding
the nth most recent one for a small value of n, we also have a side
API for_each_recent_reflog_ent() that starts reading near the end of
the file, but it still has to read the entries in the "wrong" order.
The implementation of understanding @{-1} uses this interface.

This all becomes unnecessary if we add an API to let us iterate over
reflog entries in the reverse order, from the newest to older.

cfe1348da6 Documentation/git-push: clarify the description of defaults
We describe what gets pushed by default when the command line does
not give any <refspec> under the bullet point of <refspec>.

It is a bit unfriendly to expect users to read on <refspec> when
they are not giving any in the first place.  "What gets pushed" is
determined by taking many factors (<refspec> argument being only one
of them) into account, and is a property of the entire command, not
an individual argument.  Also we do not describe "Where the push
goes" when the command line does not say.

Give the description on "what gets pushed to where" upfront before
explaining individual arguments and options.

Also update the description of <refspec> to say what it is, what it
is used for, before explaining what shape it takes.

2163e5dbb4 cache.h: drop LOCAL_REPO_ENV_SIZE
We keep a static array of variables that should be cleared
when invoking a sub-process on another repo. We statically
size the array with the LOCAL_REPO_ENV_SIZE macro so that
any readers do not have to count it themselves.

As it turns out, no readers actually use the macro, and it
creates a maintenance headache, as modifications to the
array need to happen in two places (one to add the new
element, and another to bump the size).

Since it's NULL-terminated, we can just drop the size macro
entirely. While we're at it, we'll clean up some comments
around it, and add a new mention of it at the top of the
list of environment variable macros. Even though
local_repo_env is right below that list, it's easy to miss,
and additions to that list should consider local_repo_env.

Extract:
The range r30430:30435 that was added to 1.5.x in this merge has a '*' suffix for 1.5.x\www.
This '*' is the marker for a non-inheritable mergeinfo range.

by non-absolute paths, like the value of the P4CONFIG environment
variable.

P4 does not open files directly; it builds a path by prepending

A more informative message for "complete" bundles was added in commit
8c3710fd30 (tweak "bundle verify" of a complete history, 2012-06-04).

However, the prerequisites ref list is currently read *after* we
check if it equals zero, which means we never actually use the
number of prerequisite refs to decide when to print the newly
introduced message.  The code incorrectly uses the number of
references recorded in the bundle instead.

    datarootdir = @datarootdir@
    template_dir = @datadir@/git-core/templates
    sysconfdir = @sysconfdir@

is expanded to

    prefix = /home/kirr/local/git
    bindir = ${exec_prefix}/bin                             <-- HERE
    gitexecdir = ${exec_prefix}/libexec/git-core            <--
    datarootdir = ${prefix}/share
    template_dir = ${datarootdir}/git-core/templates
    sysconfdir = ${prefix}/etc

on my system, after `configure --prefix=$HOME/local/git`

sets peer_ref for the source side of the ref list in the push
codepath since then.

Remove one leftover no-op in a loop that iterates over the source
side of ref list (i.e. our local ref) to see if it can/should be
sent to a matching destination ref while skipping ones that is
marked with peer_ref (which will never exist, so we do not skip
anything).

cf41982806 submodule: add 'deinit' command
With "git submodule init" the user is able to tell git he cares about one
or more submodules and wants to have it populated on the next call to "git
submodule update". But currently there is no easy way he could tell git he
does not care about a submodule anymore and wants to get rid of his local
work tree (except he knows a lot about submodule internals and removes the
"submodule.$name.url" setting from .git/config together with the work tree
himself).

Help those users by providing a 'deinit' command. This removes the
whole submodule.<name> section from .git/config (either for the given
submodule(s) or for all those which have been initialized if '.' is used)
together with their work tree. Fail if the current work tree contains
modifications (unless forced), but don't complain when either the work
tree is already removed or no settings are found in .git/config.

Add tests and link the man pages of "git submodule deinit" and "git rm"
to assist the user in deciding whether removing or unregistering the
submodule is the right thing to do for him. Also add the deinit subcommand
to the completion list.

on the naming scheme used by the writer of the maildir.

For instance, mutt will write:

  ${epoch_seconds}.${pid}_${seq}.${host}

where we have:

  - epoch_seconds: timestamp at which entry was written
  - pid: PID of writing process
  - seq: a sequence number to ensure uniqueness of filenames
  - host: hostname

None of the numbers are zero-padded. Therefore, when we sort
the names as byte strings, entries that cross a digit
boundary (e.g., 10) will sort out of order.  In the case of
timestamps, it almost never matters (because we do not cross
a digit boundary in the epoch time very often these days).
But for the sequence number, a 10-patch series would be
ordered as 1, 10, 2, 3, etc.

To fix this, we can use a custom sort comparison function
which traverses each string, comparing chunks of digits
numerically, and otherwise doing a byte-for-byte comparison.
That would sort:

  123.456_1.bar
  123.456_2.bar
  ...
  123.456_10.bar

according to the sequence number. Since maildir does not
define a filename format, this is really just a heuristic.
But it happens to work for mutt, and there is a reasonable
chance that it will work for other writers, too (at least as
well as a straight sort).

8b1bd02415 Make !pattern in .gitattributes non-fatal
Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'.  The docs, however, always said

  The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
  `.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].

By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation.  So 82dce99
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.

However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them.  After 82dce99 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes.  It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.

Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.

46e1d6eb4d describe: --match=<pattern> must limit the refs even when used with --all
The logic to limit the refs used for describing with a matching pattern
with --match=<pattern> parameter was implemented incorrectly when --all
is in effect.  It just demoted a ref that did not match the pattern to
lower priority---if there aren't other refs with higher priority
that describe the given commit, such an unmatching ref was still used.

When --match is used, reject refs that do not match the given
criteria, so that with or without --all, the output will only use
refs that match the pattern.

2092678cd5 name-hash.c: fix endless loop with core.ignorecase=true
With core.ignorecase=true, name-hash.c builds a case insensitive index of
all tracked directories. Currently, the existing cache entry structures are
added multiple times to the same hashtable (with different name lengths and
hash codes). However, there's only one dir_next pointer, which gets
completely messed up in case of hash collisions. In the worst case, this
causes an endless loop if ce == ce->dir_next (see t7062).

Use a separate hashtable and separate structures for the directory index
so that each directory entry has its own next pointer. Use reference
counting to track which directory entry contains files.

There are only slight changes to the name-hash.c API:
- new free_name_hash() used by read_cache.c::discard_index()
- remove_name_hash() takes an additional index_state parameter
- index_name_exists() for a directory (trailing '/') may return a cache
  entry that has been removed (CE_UNHASHED). This is not a problem as the
  return value is only used to check if the directory exists (dir.c) or to
  normalize casing of directory names (read-cache.c).

Getting rid of cache_entry.dir_next reduces memory consumption, especially
with core.ignorecase=false (which doesn't use that member at all).

With core.ignorecase=true, building the directory index is slightly faster
as we add / check the parent directory first (instead of going through all
directory levels for each file in the index). E.g. with WebKit (~200k
files, ~7k dirs), time spent in lazy_init_name_hash is reduced from 176ms
to 130ms.
