Previously git-describe would output lines of the form
v1.1.1-gf509d56
The update hook found the dash and stripped it off using
sed 's/-g.*//'
The remainder was then used as the previous tag name.
However, git-describe has changed format. The output is now of the form
v1.1.1-23-gf509d56
The above sed fragment doesn't strip the middle "-23", and so the
previous tag name used would be "v1.1.1-23". This is incorrect.
Since the hook script was written, git-describe now gained support for
"--abbrev=0", which it uses as a special flag to tell it not to output
anything other than the nearest tag name. This patch fixes the problem,
and prevents any future recurrence by using this new flag rather than
sed to find the previous tag.

If you use scanf or sscanf to parse integers, your code probably
accepts bogus inputs. For example, builtin-grep (aka git-grep) uses
sscanf(scan, "%u", &num) to parse the integer argument to -A, -B, -C.
Currently, "-C 1,000" and "-C 4294967297" are both treated just like
"-C 1":
$ git-grep -h -C 4294967297 juggle
out and you may find it easier to switch back and forth if you
juggle multiple lines of development simultaneously. Of
course, you will pay the price of more disk usage to hold
The obvious fix is to use strtoul instead. But using a bare strtoul is
too messy, at least when done properly, so I've added a wrapper function.
The new function in the patch below belongs elsewhere if it would be
useful in replacing any of the four remaining uses of sscanf.
One final note: With this change, I get a slightly different
diagnostic depending on the context size:
$ ./git-grep -h -C 4294967296 juggle
fatal: 4294967296: invalid context length argument
[Exit 128]
$ ./git-grep -h -C 4294967295 juggle
grep: 4294967295: invalid context length argument
[Exit 1]
A common convention that makes it easy to identify the source
of a diagnostic is to include the program name before the first ":".
Whether that should be "git" or "git-grep" is another question.
Using "grep" or "fatal" is misleading.

Not so. "git shortlog" acts as a filter when no revs are given,
unlike "git log" which defaults to HEAD. It was reading from
its standard input.

I am working on a project that required parsing through regular
mboxes that didn't necessarily have patches embedded in them. I
started by creating my own modified copy of git-am and working
from there. Very quickly, I noticed git-mailinfo wasn't able to
handle a big chunk of my email.
After hacking up numerous solutions and running into more
limitations, I decided it was just easier to rewrite a big chunk
of it. The following patch has a bunch of fixes and features
that I needed in order for me do what I wanted.
Note: I'm didn't follow any email rfc papers but I don't think
any of the changes I did required much knowledge (besides the
boundary stuff).
List of major changes/fixes:
- can't create empty patch files fix
- empty patch files don't fail, this failure will come inside git-am
- multipart boundaries are now handled
- only output inbody headers if a patch exists otherwise assume those
headers are part of the reply and instead output the original headers
- decode and filter base64 patches correctly
- various other accidental fixes
I believe I didn't break any existing functionality or
compatibility (other than what I describe above, which is really
only the empty patch file).
I tested this through various mailing list archives and
everything seemed to parse correctly (a couple thousand emails).
[jc: squashed in another patch from Don's five patch series to
fix the test case, as this patch exposes the bug in the test.]

The Git tree sorting convention is more complex than just the name,
it needs to include the mode too to make sure trees sort as though
their name ends with "/".
This is a simple test case that verifies fast-import keeps the tree
ordering correct after editing the same tree twice in a single
input stream. A recent proposed patch series (that has not yet
been applied) will cause this test to fail, due to a bug in the
way the series handles sorting within the trees.

When building up a tree for a commit, fast-import
dynamically allocates memory for the tree entries. When more
space is needed, the allocated memory is increased by a
constant amount. For very large trees, this means
re-allocating and memcpy()ing the memory O(n) times.
To compound this problem, releasing the previous tree
resource does not free the memory; it is kept in a pool
for future trees. This means that each of the O(n)
allocations will consume increasing amounts of memory,
giving O(n^2) memory consumption.

I got a little surprise one day when I tried to run 'git gui version'
outside of a Git repository to determine what version of git-gui was
installed on that system. Turns out we were doing the repository
check long before we got around to command line argument handling.
We now look to see if the only argument we have been given is
'version' or '--version', and if so, print out the version and
exit immediately; long before we consider looking at the Git
version or working directory. This way users can still get to
the git-gui version number even if Git's version cannot be read.

Johannes Sixt noticed that git-gui would not let the user commit
a merge created by `git merge -s ours` as the ours strategy does
not alter the tree (that is HEAD^1^{tree} = HEAD^{tree} after the
merge). The same issue arises from amending such a merge commit.
We now permit an empty commit (no changed files) if we are doing
a merge commit. Core Git does this with its command line based
git-commit tool, so it makes sense for the GUI to do the same.

The expected outcome is _not_ to error out if only a couple of the

pack not containing the corresponding objects, but dies only if
no objects would be in the pack _at all_.

Sergey Vlasov, Andy Parkins and Alex Riesen all pointed out that it
is possible for a single invocation of receive-pack to be given more
refs than the OS might allow us to pass as command line parameters
to a single hook invocation.
We don't want to break these up into multiple invocations (like
xargs might do) as that makes it impossible for the pre-receive
hook to verify multiple related ref updates occur at the same time,
and it makes it harder for post-receive to send out a single batch
notification.
Instead we pass the reference data on a pipe connected to the
hook's stdin, supplying one ref per line to the hook. This way a
single hook invocation can obtain an infinite amount of ref data,
without bumping into any operating system limits.

Since we have decided to change the calling conventions for the
pre-receive and post-receive hooks to take the ref data on stdin
rather than on the command line we cannot use the same logic to
invoke the update hook anymore.
So we take a small step backwards towards what we used to have,
and create a specialized function for executing just the update
hook.
