Based on current experience, when running git clone --recurse-submodules,
developers do not expect other commands such as pull or checkout to run
recursively into active submodules. However, setting submodule.recurse=true
at this step could make for a simpler workflow by eliminating the need for
the --recurse-submodules option in subsequent commands. To collect more
data on developers' preference in regards to making submodule.recurse=true
a default config value in the future, deploy this feature under the opt in
submodule.stickyRecursiveClone flag.

Every once in a while a test somehow manages to escape from its trash
directory and modifies the surrounding repository, whether because of
a bug in git itself, a bug in a test [1], or e.g. when trying to run
tests with a shell that is, in general, unable to run our tests [2].
Set GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES="$TRASH_DIRECTORY/.." as an additional
safety measure to protect the surrounding repository at least from
modifications by git commands executed in the tests (assuming that
handling of ceiling directories during repository discovery is not
broken, and, of course, it won't save us from regular shell commands,
e.g. 'cd .. && rm -f ...').
[1] e.g. https://public-inbox.org/git/20210423051255.GD2947267@szeder.dev
[2] $ git symbolic-ref HEAD
refs/heads/master
$ ksh ./t2011-checkout-invalid-head.sh
[... a lot of "not ok" ...]
$ git symbolic-ref HEAD
refs/heads/other
(In short: 'ksh' doesn't support the 'local' builtin command,
which is used by 'test_oid', causing it to return with error
whenever it's called, leaving ZERO_OID set to empty, so when the
test 'checkout main from invalid HEAD' runs 'echo $ZERO_OID
>.git/HEAD' it writes a corrupt (not invalid) HEAD, and subsequent
git commands don't recognize the repository in the trash directory
anymore, but operate on the surrounding repo.)

If the user asks for a pretty-printed commit to be converted (either
explicitly with --encoding=foo, or implicitly because the commit is
non-utf8 and we want to convert it), we pass it through iconv(). If that
fails, we fall back to showing the input verbatim, but don't tell the
user that the output may be bogus.
Let's add a warning to do so, along with a mention in the documentation
for --encoding. Two things to note about the implementation:
- we could produce the warning closer to the call to iconv() in
reencode_string_len(), which would let us relay the value of errno.
But this is not actually very helpful. reencode_string_len() does
not know we are operating on a commit, and indeed does not know that
the caller won't produce an error of its own. And the errno values
from iconv() are seldom helpful (iconv_open() only ever produces
EINVAL; perhaps EILSEQ from iconv() might be illuminating, but it
can also return EINVAL for incomplete sequences).
- if the reason for the failure is that the output charset is not
supported, then the user will see this warning for every commit we
try to display. That might be ugly and overwhelming, but on the
other hand it is making it clear that every one of them has not been
converted (and the likely outcome anyway is to re-try the command
with a supported output encoding).

Commit 0696232390 (pack-redundant: fix crash when one packfile in repo,
2020-12-16) added one some new tests to t5323. At the time, the sub-repo
we used was called "master". But in a parallel branch, this was switched
to "main".
When the latter branch was merged in 27d7c8599b (Merge branch
'js/default-branch-name-tests-final-stretch', 2021-01-25), some of those
spots caused textual conflicts, but some (for tests that were far enough
away from other changed code) were just semantic. The merge resolution
fixed up most spots, but missed this one.
Even though this did impact actual code, it turned out not to fail the
tests. Running 'cd "$master_repo"' ended up staying in the same
directory, running the test in the main trash repo instead of the
sub-repo. But because the point of the test is checking behavior when
there are no packfiles, it worked in either repo (since both are empty
at this point in the script).

The set of objects covered by a bitmap must be closed under
reachability, since it must be the case that there is a valid bit
position assigned for every possible reachable object (otherwise the
bitmaps would be incomplete).
Pack bitmaps are never written from 'git repack' unless repacking
all-into-one, and so we never write non-closed bitmaps (except in the
case of partial clones where we aren't guaranteed to have all objects).
But multi-pack bitmaps change this, since it isn't known whether the
set of objects in the MIDX is closed under reachability until walking
them. Plumb through a bit that is set when a reachable object isn't
found.
As soon as a reachable object isn't found in the set of objects to
include in the bitmap, bitmap_writer_build() knows that the set is not
closed, and so it now fails gracefully.
A test is added in t0410 to trigger a bitmap write without full
reachability closure by removing local copies of some reachable objects
from a promisor remote.

"git cherry-pick", upon seeing a conflict, says:
hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths
hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
hint: and commit the result with 'git commit'
as if running "git commit" to conclude the resolution of
this single step were the end of the story. This stems from
the fact that the command originally was to pick a single
commit and not a range of commits, and the message was
written back then and has not been adjusted.
When picking a range of commits and the command stops with a
conflict in the middle of the range, however, after
resolving the conflict and (optionally) recording the result
with "git commit", the user has to run "git cherry-pick
--continue" to have the rest of the range dealt with,
"--skip" to drop the current commit, or "--abort" to discard
the series.
Suggest use of "git cherry-pick --continue/--skip/--abort"
so that the message also covers the case where a range of
commits are being picked.
Similarly, this optimization can be applied to git revert,
suggest use of "git revert --continue/--skip/--abort" so
that the message also covers the case where a range of
commits are being reverted.
It is worth mentioning that now we use advice() to print
the content of GIT_CHERRY_PICK_HELP in print_advice(), each
line of output will start with "hint: ".

When fast-forwarding we do not create a new commit so .git/MERGE_MSG
is not removed and can end up seeding the message of a commit made
after the rebase has finished. Avoid writing .git/MERGE_MSG when we
are fast-forwarding by writing the file after the fast-forward
checks. Note that there are no changes to the fast-forward code, it is
simply moved.
Note that the way this change is implemented means we no longer write
the author script when fast-forwarding either. I believe this is safe
for the reasons below but it is a departure from what we do when
fast-forwarding a non-merge commit. If we reword the merge then 'git
commit --amend' will keep the authorship of the commit we're rewording
as it ignores GIT_AUTHOR_* unless --reset-author is passed. It will
also export the correct GIT_AUTHOR_* variables to any hooks and we
already test the authorship of the reworded commit. If we are not
rewording then we no longer call spilt_ident() which means we are no
longer checking the commit author header looks sane. However this is
what we already do when fast-forwarding non-merge commits in
skip_unnecessary_picks() so I don't think we're breaking any promises
by not checking the author here.

If the user runs git log while rewording a commit it is confusing if
sometimes we're amending the commit that's being reworded and at other
times we're creating a new commit depending on whether we could
fast-forward or not[1]. For this reason the reword command ensures
that there are no uncommitted changes when rewording. The reword
command also allows the user to edit the todo list while the rebase is
paused. As 'merge -c' also rewords commits make it behave like reword
and add a test.

We parse through binary hunks by looping through the buffer with code
like:
llen = linelen(buffer, size);
...do something with the line...
buffer += llen;
size -= llen;
However, before we enter the loop, there is one call that increments
"buffer" but forgets to decrement "size". As a result, our "size" is off
by the length of that line, and subsequent calls to linelen() may look
past the end of the buffer for a newline.
The fix is easy: we just need to decrement size as we do elsewhere.
This bug goes all the way back to 0660626caf (binary diff: further
updates., 2006-05-05). Presumably nobody noticed because it only
triggers if the patch is corrupted, and even then we are often "saved"
by luck. We use a strbuf to store the incoming patch, so we overallocate
there, plus we add a 16-byte run of NULs as slop for memory comparisons.
So if this happened accidentally, the common case is that we'd just read
a few uninitialized bytes from the end of the strbuf before producing
the expected "this patch is corrupted" error complaint.
However, it is possible to carefully construct a case which reads off
the end of the buffer. The included test does so. It will pass both
before and after this patch when run normally, but using a tool like
ASan shows that we get an out-of-bounds read before this patch, but not
after.

This reverts commit f5bfcc823ba242a46e20fb6f71c9fbf7ebb222fe, which
made "git log -m" imply "--patch" by default. The logic was that
"-m", which makes diff generation for merges perform a diff against
each parent, has no use unless I am viewing the diff, so we could save
the user some typing by turning on display of the resulting diff
automatically. That wasn't expected to adversely affect scripts
because scripts would either be using a command like "git diff-tree"
that already emits diffs by default or would be combining -m with a
diff generation option such as --name-status. By saving typing for
interactive use without adversely affecting scripts in the wild, it
would be a pure improvement.
The problem is that although diff generation options are only relevant
for the displayed diff, a script author can imagine them affecting
path limiting. For example, I might run
git log -w --format=%H -- README
hoping to list commits that edited README, excluding whitespace-only
changes. In fact, a whitespace-only change is not TREESAME so the use
of -w here has no effect (since we don't apply these diff generation
flags to the diff_options struct rev_info::pruning used for this
purpose), but the documentation suggests that it should work
Suppose you specified foo as the <paths>. We shall call
commits that modify foo !TREESAME, and the rest TREESAME. (In
a diff filtered for foo, they look different and equal,
respectively.)
and a script author who has not tested whitespace-only changes
wouldn't notice.
Similarly, a script author could include
git log -m --first-parent --format=%H -- README
to filter the first-parent history for commits that modified README.
The -m is a no-op but it reflects the script author's intent. For
example, until 1e20a407fe2 (stash list: stop passing "-m" to "git
log", 2021-05-21), "git stash list" did this.
As a result, we can't safely change "-m" to imply "-p" without fear of
breaking such scripts. Restore the previous behavior.
Noticed because Rust's src/bootstrap/bootstrap.py made use of this
same construct: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87513. That
script has been updated to omit the unnecessary "-m" option, but we

In order to compute whether objects reachable from a set of tips are all
connected, we do a revision walk with these tips as positive references
and `--not --all`. `--not --all` will cause the revision walk to load
all preexisting references as uninteresting, which can be very expensive
in repositories with many references.
Benchmarking the git-rev-list(1) command highlights that by far the most
expensive single phase is initial sorting of the input revisions: after
all references have been loaded, we first sort commits by author date.
In a real-world repository with about 2.2 million references, it makes
up about 40% of the total runtime of git-rev-list(1).
Ultimately, the connectivity check shouldn't really bother about the
order of input revisions at all. We only care whether we can actually
walk all objects until we hit the cut-off point. So sorting the input is
a complete waste of time.
Introduce a new "--unsorted-input" flag to git-rev-list(1) which will
cause it to not sort the commits and adjust the connectivity check to
always pass the flag. This results in the following speedups, executed
in a clone of gitlab-org/gitlab [1]:
Benchmark #1: git rev-list --objects --quiet --not --all --not $(cat newrev)
Time (mean ± σ): 7.639 s ± 0.065 s [User: 7.304 s, System: 0.335 s]
Range (min … max): 7.543 s … 7.742 s 10 runs
Benchmark #2: git rev-list --unsorted-input --objects --quiet --not --all --not $newrev
Time (mean ± σ): 4.995 s ± 0.044 s [User: 4.657 s, System: 0.337 s]
Range (min … max): 4.909 s … 5.048 s 10 runs
Summary
'git rev-list --unsorted-input --objects --quiet --not --all --not $(cat newrev)' ran
1.53 ± 0.02 times faster than 'git rev-list --objects --quiet --not --all --not $newrev'

Since c49a177bec (test-lib.sh: set COLUMNS=80 for --verbose
repeatability, 2021-06-29) multiple tests have been failing when using
bash 5 because checkwinsize is enabled by default, therefore COLUMNS is
reset using TIOCGWINSZ even for non-interactive shells.
It's debatable whether or not bash should even be doing that, but for
now we can avoid this undesirable behavior by disabling this option.

The --advertise-refs documentation in git-upload-pack added in
9812f2136b3 (upload-pack.c: use parse-options API, 2016-05-31) hasn't
been entirely true ever since v2 support was implemented in
e52449b6722 (connect: request remote refs using v2, 2018-03-15). Under
v2 we don't advertise the refs at all, but rather dump the
capabilities header.
This option has always been an obscure internal implementation detail,
it wasn't even documented for git-receive-pack. Since it has exactly
one user let's rename it to --http-backend-info-refs, which is more
accurate and points the reader in the right direction. Let's also
cross-link this from the protocol v1 and v2 documentation.
I'm retaining a hidden --advertise-refs alias in case there's any
external users of this, and making both options hidden to the bash
completion (as with most other internal-only options).

The "advertise capabilities" mode of serve.c added in
ed10cb952d3 (serve: introduce git-serve, 2018-03-15) is only used by
the http-backend.c to call {upload,receive}-pack with the
--advertise-refs parameter. See 42526b478e3 (Add stateless RPC options
to upload-pack, receive-pack, 2009-10-30).
Let's just make cmd_upload_pack() take the two (v2) or three (v2)
parameters the the v2/v1 servicing functions need directly, and pass
those in via the function signature. The logic of whether daemon mode
is implied by the timeout belongs in the v1 function (only used
there).
Once we split up the "advertise v2 refs" from "serve v2 request" it
becomes clear that v2 never cared about those in combination. The only
time it mattered was for v1 to emit its ref advertisement, in that
case we wanted to emit the smart-http-only "no-done" capability.
Since we only do that in the --advertise-refs codepath let's just have
it set "do_done" itself in v1's upload_pack() just before send_ref(),
at that point --advertise-refs and --stateless-rpc in combination are
redundant (the only user is get_info_refs() in http-backend.c), so we
can just pass in --advertise-refs only.
Since we need to touch all the serve() and advertise_capabilities()
codepaths let's rename them to less clever and obvious names, it's
been suggested numerous times, the latest of which is [1]'s suggestion
for protocol_v2_serve_loop(). Let's go with that.

The --advertise-refs option had no explicit tests of its own, only
other http tests that would fail at a distance if it it was
broken. Let's test its behavior explicitly.

Windows rmdir() equivalent behaves differently from POSIX ones in
that when used on a symbolic link that points at a directory, the
target directory gets removed, which has been corrected.
