When there is no sufficient overlap between old and new history
during a fetch into a shallow repository, we unnecessarily sent
objects the sending side knows the receiving end has.
* nd/fetch-into-shallow:
Add testcase for needless objects during a shallow fetch
list-objects: mark more commits as edges in mark_edges_uninteresting
list-objects: reduce one argument in mark_edges_uninteresting
upload-pack: delegate rev walking in shallow fetch to pack-objects
shallow: add setup_temporary_shallow()
shallow: only add shallow graft points to new shallow file
move setup_alternate_shallow and write_shallow_commits to shallow.c
Some people still use rather old versions of bash, which cannot grok
some constructs like 'printf -v varname' the prompt and completion
code started to use recently.
* bc/completion-for-bash-3.0:
contrib/git-prompt.sh: handle missing 'printf -v' more gracefully
t9902-completion.sh: old Bash still does not support array+=('') notation
git-completion.bash: use correct Bash/Zsh array length syntax
Fixes a minor bug in "git rebase -i" (there could be others, as the
root cause is pretty generic) where the code feeds a random, data
dependeant string to 'echo' and expects it to come out literally.
* mm/no-shell-escape-in-die-message:
die_with_status: use "printf '%s\n'", not "echo"
Output from "git log --full-diff -- <pathspec>" looked strange,
because comparison was done with the previous ancestor that touched
the specified <pathspec>, causing the patches for paths outside the
pathspec to show more than the single commit has changed.
* tr/log-full-diff-keep-true-parents:
log: use true parents for diff when walking reflogs
log: use true parents for diff even when rewriting
The auto-tag-following code in "git fetch" tries to reuse the same
transport twice when the serving end does not cooperate and does
not give tags that point to commits that are asked for as part of
the primary transfer. Unfortunately, Git-aware transport helper
interface is not designed to be used more than once, hence this
does not work over smart-http transfer.
* jc/transport-do-not-use-connect-twice-in-fetch:
builtin/fetch.c: Fix a sparse warning
fetch: work around "transport-take-over" hack
fetch: refactor code that fetches leftover tags
fetch: refactor code that prepares a transport
fetch: rename file-scope global "transport" to "gtransport"
t5802: add test for connect helper
Send a large request to read(2)/write(2) as a smaller but still
reasonably large chunks, which would improve the latency when the
operation needs to be killed and incidentally works around broken
64-bit systems that cannot take a 2GB write or read in one go.
* sp/clip-read-write-to-8mb:
Revert "compat/clipped-write.c: large write(2) fails on Mac OS X/XNU"
xread, xwrite: limit size of IO to 8MB
While normalizing a URL, we forgot that the buffer that holds it
could be relocated when it grows, which was a brown-paper-bag bug
that can lead to a crash introduced on 'master' post 1.8.4 release.
* jc/url-match:
urlmatch.c: recompute pointer after append_normalized_escapes
"git cvsserver" computed the permission mode bits incorrectly for
executable files.
* jc/cvsserver-perm-bit-fix:
cvsserver: pick up the right mode bits
When send-email comes up with an error message to die with upon
failure to start an SSL session, it tried to read the error string
from a wrong place.
* bc/send-email-ssl-die-message-fix:
send-email: don't call methods on undefined values
"git-svn" used with SVN 1.8.0 when talking over https:// connection
dumped core due to a bug in the serf library that SVN uses. Work
it around on our side, even though the SVN side is being fixed.
* uh/git-svn-serf-fix:
git-svn: fix termination issues for remote svn connections
* fc/contrib-bzr-hg-fixes:
contrib/remote-helpers: quote variable references in redirection targets
contrib/remote-helpers: style updates for test scripts
remote-hg: use notes to keep track of Hg revisions
remote-helpers: cleanup more global variables
remote-helpers: trivial style fixes
remote-hg: improve basic test
remote-hg: add missing &&s in the test
remote-hg: fix test
remote-bzr: make bzr branches configurable per-repo
remote-bzr: fix export of utf-8 authors
The implementation of "add -i" has a crippling code to work around
ActiveState Perl limitation but it by mistake also triggered on Git
for Windows where MSYS perl is used.
* js/add-i-mingw:
add--interactive: fix external command invocation on Windows
A packfile that stores the same object more than once is broken and
will be rejected by "git index-pack" that is run when receiving data
over the wire.
* jk/duplicate-objects-in-packs:
t5308: check that index-pack --strict detects duplicate objects
test index-pack on packs with recoverable delta cycles
add tests for indexing packs with delta cycles
sha1-lookup: handle duplicate keys with GIT_USE_LOOKUP
test-sha1: add a binary output mode
We made sure that we notice the user-supplied GIT_DIR is actually a
gitfile, but did not do the same when the default ".git" is a gitfile.
* nd/git-dir-pointing-at-gitfile:
Make setup_git_env() resolve .git file when $GIT_DIR is not specified
If a build-time fallback is set to "cat" instead of "less", we
should apply the same "no subprocess or pipe" optimization as we
apply to user-supplied GIT_PAGER=cat.
* jk/pager-bypass-cat-for-default-pager:
pager: turn on "cat" optimization for DEFAULT_PAGER
Modernize tests.
* fc/rev-parse-test-updates:
rev-parse test: use standard test functions for setup
rev-parse test: use test_cmp instead of "test" builtin
rev-parse test: use test_must_fail, not "if <command>; then false; fi"
rev-parse test: modernize quoting and whitespace
Remove now disused remote-helpers framework for helpers written in
Python.
* jk/remove-remote-helpers-in-python:
git_remote_helpers: remove little used Python library
When we converted many documents that were traditionally text-only
to be formatted to AsciiDoc, we did not update links that point at
them to refer to the formatted HTML files.
* ss/doclinks:
Documentation: make AsciiDoc links always point to HTML files
We liberally use "committish" and "commit-ish" (and "treeish" and
"tree-ish"); as these are non-words, let's unify these terms to
their dashed form. More importantly, clarify the documentation on
object peeling using these terms.
* rh/ishes-doc:
glossary: fix and clarify the definition of 'ref'
revisions.txt: fix and clarify <rev>^{<type>}
glossary: more precise definition of tree-ish (a.k.a. treeish)
use 'commit-ish' instead of 'committish'
use 'tree-ish' instead of 'treeish'
glossary: define commit-ish (a.k.a. committish)
glossary: mention 'treeish' as an alternative to 'tree-ish'
When the user types "git diff" outside a working tree, thinking he
is inside one, the current error message that is a single-liner
"usage: git diff --no-index <path> <path>" may not be sufficient to
make him realize the mistake. Add "Not a git repository" to the
error message when we fell into the "--no-index" mode without an
explicit command line option to instruct us to do so.
* dw/diff-no-index-doc:
diff --no-index: describe in a separate paragraph
diff --no-index: clarify operation when not inside a repository
Update the user's manual to more recent versions of Git.
* ta/user-manual:
"git prune" is safe
Remove irrelevant reference from "Tying it all together"
Remove unnecessary historical note from "Object storage format"
Improve section "Merging multiple trees"
Improve section "Manipulating branches"
Simplify "How to make a commit"
Fix some typos and improve wording
Use "git merge" instead of "git pull ."
Use current output for "git repack"
Use current "detached HEAD" message
Call it "Git User Manual" and remove reference to very old Git version
When an object is not found after checking the packfiles and then
loose object directory, read_sha1_file() re-checks the packfiles to
prevent racing with a concurrent repacker; teach the same logic to
has_sha1_file().
* jk/has-sha1-file-retry-packed:
has_sha1_file: re-check pack directory before giving up
Earlier we started rejecting an attempt to add 0{40} object name to
the index and to tree objects, but it sometimes is necessary to
allow so to be able to use tools like filter-branch to correct such
broken tree objects.
* jk/write-broken-index-with-nul-sha1:
write_index: optionally allow broken null sha1s
Finishing touches to update the document to adjust to a new option
"git clean" learned recently.
* jx/clean-interactive:
documentation: clarify notes for clean.requireForce
On MacOS X, we detected if the filesystem needs the "pre-composed
unicode strings" workaround, but did not automatically enable it.
Now we do.
* tb/precompose-autodetect-fix:
Set core.precomposeunicode to true on e.g. HFS+
Some tests were not skipped under NO_PERL build.
* kk/tests-with-no-perl:
reset test: modernize style
t/t7106-reset-unborn-branch.sh: Add PERL prerequisite
add -i test: use skip_all instead of repeated PERL prerequisite
Make test "using invalid commit with -C" more strict
"git commit --author=$name", when $name is not in the canonical
"A. U. Thor <au.thor@example.xz>" format, looks for a matching name
from existing history, but did not consult mailmap to grab the
preferred author name.
* ap/commit-author-mailmap:
commit: search author pattern against mailmap
322bb6e (2011 Aug 11) introduced a new subshell at the end of a test

When append_normalized_escapes is called, its internal strbuf_add* calls can
cause the strbuf's buf to be reallocated changing the value of the buf pointer.
Do not use the strbuf buf pointer from before any append_normalized_escapes
calls afterwards. Instead recompute the needed pointer.

It was unclear in the documentation how various configurations and
environment variables determine which pager is eventually used.
