64d1022e14 t: fix whitespace around &&
Add missing spaces before '&&' and switch tabs around '&&' to spaces.
Also fix the space after redirection operator in t3701 while we're here.

These issues were found using `git grep '[^ ]&&$'` and
`git grep -P '&&\t' t/`.

advice.addNothing config variable is used to control the visibility of
two advice messages in the add library. This config variable is

Use the advise function in advice.c to display hints to the users, as
it provides a neat and a standard format for hint messages, i.e: the

f937bc2f86 add: error appropriately on repository with no commits
The previous commit made 'git add' abort when given a repository that
doesn't have a commit checked out.  However, the output upon failure
isn't appropriate:

  % git add repo
  warning: adding embedded git repository: repo
  hint: You've added another git repository inside your current repository.
  hint: [...]
  error: unable to index file 'repo/'
  fatal: adding files failed

The hint doesn't apply in this case, and the error message doesn't
tell the user why 'repo' couldn't be added to the index.

Provide better output by teaching add_to_index() to error when given a
git directory where HEAD can't be resolved.  To avoid the embedded
repository warning and hint, call check_embedded_repo() only after
add_file_to_index() succeeds because, in general, its output doesn't
make sense if adding to the index fails.

b22827045e dir: do not traverse repositories with no commits
When treat_directory() encounters a directory that is not in the index
and DIR_NO_GITLINKS is unset, it calls resolve_gitlink_ref() to decide
if a directory looks like a repository, in which case the directory
won't be traversed.  As a result, 'status -uall' and 'ls-files -o'
will show only the directory, even when there are untracked files
within the directory.

For the unusual case where a repository doesn't have a commit checked
out, resolve_gitlink_ref() returns -1 because HEAD cannot be resolved,
and the directory is treated as a normal directory (i.e. traversal
does not stop at the repository boundary).  The status and ls-files
commands above list untracked files within the repository rather than
showing only the top-level directory.  And if 'git add' is called on a
repository with no commit checked out, any untracked files under the
repository are added as blobs in the top-level project, a behavior
that is unlikely to be what the caller intended.

The above case is a corner case in an already unusual situation of the
working tree containing a repository that is not a tracked submodule,
but we might as well treat anything that looks like a repository
consistently.  Loosen the "looks like a repository" criteria in
treat_directory() by replacing resolve_gitlink_ref() with
is_nonbare_repository_dir(), one of the checks that is performed
downstream when resolve_gitlink_ref() is called.

As the required update to t3700-add shows, calling 'git add' on a
repository with no commit checked out will now raise an error.  While
this is the desired behavior, note that the output isn't yet
appropriate.  The next commit will improve this output.

The final step to make an empty string as a pathspec element
illegal.  We started this by first deprecating and warning a
pathspec that has such an element in 2.11 (Nov 2016).

Hopefully we can merge this down to the 'master' by the end of the

sound too bad.

57ea241ef0 t3700: fix broken test under !POSIXPERM
76e368c378 (t3700: fix broken test under !SANITY) explains that the test
'git add --chmod=[+-]x changes index with already added file' can fail
if xfoo3 is still present as a symlink from a previous test and deletes
it with rm(1).  That still leaves it present in the index, which causes
the test to fail if POSIXPERM is not defined.  Get rid of it by calling
"git reset --hard" as well, as 76e368c378 already mentioned in passing.

9e4e8a64c2 pathspec: die on empty strings as pathspec
An empty string as a pathspec element matches all paths.  A buggy
script, however, could accidentally assign an empty string to a
variable that then gets passed to a Git command invocation, e.g.:

  path=... compute a path to be removed in $path ...
        git rm -r "$path"

which would unintentionally remove all paths in the current
directory.

The fix for this issue comprises of two steps. Step 1, which warns
that empty strings as pathspecs will become invalid, has already
been implemented in commit d426430 ("pathspec: warn on empty strings
as pathspec", 2016-06-22).

This patch is step 2. It removes the warning and throws an error
instead.

3b1e135b87 Merge branch 'ex/deprecate-empty-pathspec-as-match-all'
An empty string used as a pathspec element has always meant
'everything matches', but it is too easy to write a script that
finds a path to remove in $path and run 'git rm "$paht"', which
ends up removing everything.  Start warning about this use of an
empty string used for 'everything matches' and ask users to use a
more explicit '.' for that instead.

The hope is that existing users will not mind this change, and
eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, upgrading
the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature.

76e368c378 t3700: fix broken test under !SANITY
An "add --chmod=+x" test recently added by 610d55af0f ("add: modify
already added files when --chmod is given", 2016-09-14) used "xfoo3"
as a test file.  The paths xfoo[1-3] were used by earlier tests for
symbolic links but they were expected to have been removed by the
time the execution reached this new test.

The removal with "git reset --hard" however happened in a pair of
earlier tests, both of which are protected by POSIXPERM,SANITY
prerequisites.  Platforms and test environments that lacked these
would have seen xfoo3 as a leftover symbolic link that points at
somewhere else at this point of the sequence, and the chmod test
would have given a wrong result.

40e0dc17ce t3700-add: do not check working tree file mode without POSIXPERM
A recently introduced test checks the result of 'git status' after
setting the executable bit on a file. This check does not yield the
expected result when the filesystem does not support the executable
bit.

What we care about is that a file added with "--chmod=+x" has
executable bit in the index and that "--chmod=+x" (or any other
options for that matter) does not muck with working tree files.
The former is tested by other existing tests, so let's check the
latter more explicitly and only under POSIXPERM prerequisite.

610d55af0f add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff
machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index
differs from the version on disk.

As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index,
which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of
the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

c0fa44d8f1 t3700: remove unwanted leftover files before running new tests
When an earlier test that has prerequisite is skipped, files
used by later tests may be left in the working tree in an
unexpected state.  For example, a test runs this sequence:

        echo foo >xfoo1 && chmod 755 xfoo1

to create an executable file xfoo1, expecting that xfoo1
does not exist before it runs in the test sequence.
However, the absence of this file depends on "git reset
--hard" done in an earlier test, that is skipped when SANITY
prerequisite is not met, and worse yet, xfoo1 originally is
created as a symbolic link, which means the chmod does not
affect the modes of xfoo1 as this test expects.

Fix this by starting the test with "rm -f xfoo1" to make
sure the file is created from scratch, and do the same to
other similar tests.

d426430e6e pathspec: warn on empty strings as pathspec
An empty string as a pathspec element matches all paths.  A buggy
script, however, could accidentally assign an empty string to a
variable that then gets passed to a Git command invocation, e.g.:

	path=... compute a path to be removed in $path ...
        git rm -r "$paht"

which would unintentionally remove all paths in the current
directory.

The fix for this issue requires a two-step approach. As there may be
existing scripts that knowingly use empty strings in this manner,
the first step simply gives a warning that (1) tells that an empty
string will become an invalid pathspec element and (2) asks the user
to use "." if they mean to match all.

For step two, a follow-up patch several release cycles later will
remove the warning and throw an error instead.

This patch is the first step.

4e55ed32db add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x options
The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be
set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false,
though the users may still wish to add files as executable for
compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode`
functionality.  For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may
wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on
non-Windows.

Although this can be done with a plumbing command
(`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add`
command allows users to set a file executable with a command that
they're already familiar with.

ed6c23142a t/t3700-add.sh: use the $( ... ) construct for command substitution
The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command
substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.

The backquoted form is the traditional method for command
substitution, and is supported by POSIX.  However, all but the
simplest uses become complicated quickly.  In particular, embedded
command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require
careful escaping with the backslash character.

The patch was generated by:

for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh")
do
	perl -i -pe 'BEGIN{undef $/;} s/`(.+?)`/\$(\1)/smg'  "${_f}"

1d31e5a2cd add: ignore only ignored files
"git add foo bar" adds neither foo nor bar when bar is ignored, but dies
to let the user recheck their command invocation. This becomes less
helpful when "git add foo.*" is subject to shell expansion and some of
the expanded files are ignored.

"git add --ignore-errors" is supposed to ignore errors when indexing
some files and adds the others. It does ignore errors from actual
indexing attempts, but does not ignore the error "file is ignored" as
outlined above. This is unexpected.

Change "git add foo bar" to add foo when bar is ignored, but issue
a warning and return a failure code as before the change.

That is, in the case of trying to add ignored files we now act the same
way (with or without "--ignore-errors") in which we act for more
severe indexing errors when "--ignore-errors" is specified.

460d562eab t/t3700: convert two uses of negation operator '!' to use test_must_fail
These two lines use the negation '!' operator to negate the result of a
simple command.  Since these commands do not contain any pipes or other
complexities, the test_must_fail function can be used and is preferred
since it will additionally detect termination due to a signal.

This was noticed because the second use of '!' does not include a space
between the '!' and the opening parens.  Ksh interprets this as follows:

   !(pattern-list)
      Matches anything except one of the given patterns.

Ksh performs a file glob using the pattern-list and then tries to execute
the first file in the list.  If a space is added between the '!' and the
open parens, then Ksh will not interpret it as a pattern list, but in this
case, it is preferred to use test_must_fail, so lets do so.

Add a test for 'git add -u pathspec' and 'git add pathspec' where
pathspec does not exist. The expected result is that git add exits with
an error message and an appropriate exit code.

ed342fdea0 add: allow configurations to be overriden by command line
Don't call git_config after parsing the command line options, otherwise
the config settings will override any settings made by the command line.

This can be seen by setting add.ignore_errors and then specifying
--no-ignore-errors when using git-add.

6e4f981ffb git-add: no need for -f when resolving a conflict in already tracked path
When a path F that matches ignore pattern has a conflict, "git add F"
insisted the -f option be given, which did not make sense.  It would have
required -f when the path was originally added, but when resolving a
conflict, it already is tracked.

So this should work (and does):

  $ echo file >.gitignore
  $ echo content >file
  $ git add -f file ;# need -f because we are adding new path
  $ echo more content >>file
  $ git add file ;# don't need -f; it is not actually an "other" file

This is handled under the hood by the COLLECT_IGNORED option to
read_directory. When that code finds an ignored file, it checks the
index to make sure it is not actually a tracked file. However, the test
it uses does not take into account unmerged entries, and considers them
to still be ignored. "git ls-files" uses a more elaborate test and gets
the right answer and the same test should be used here.

6fd1106aa4 t3700: Skip a test with backslashes in pathspec
The test verifies that glob special characters can be escaped with
backslashes.  In particular, the string fo\[ou\]bar is given to git.

On Windows, this does not work because backslashes are first of all
directory separators, and first thing git does with a pathspec from the
command line is to convert backslashes to forward slashes.

704a3143d5 Use prerequisite tags to skip tests that depend on symbolic links
Many tests depend on that symbolic links work.  This introduces a check
that sets the prerequisite tag SYMLINKS if the file system supports
symbolic links.  Since so many tests have to check for this prerequisite,
we do the check in test-lib.sh, so that we don't need to repeat the test
in many scripts.

To check for 'ln -s' failures, you can use a FAT partition on Linux:

$ mkdosfs -C git-on-fat 1000000
$ sudo mount -o loop,uid=j6t,gid=users,shortname=winnt git-on-fat /mnt

Clone git to /mnt and

$ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0001.1[34] t0010 t1301 t403[34] t4129.[47] t5701.7
          t7701.3 t9100 t9101.26 t9119 t9124.[67] t9200.10 t9600.6' \
        make test

(These additionally skipped tests depend on POSIX permissions that FAT on
Linux does not provide.)

87539416fd tests: grep portability fixes
We try to avoid using the "-q" or "-e" options, as they are
largely useless, as explained in aadbe44f.

There is one exception for "-e" here, which is in t7701 used
to produce an "or" of patterns. This can be rewritten as an
egrep pattern.

This patch also removes use of "grep -F" in favor of the
more widely available "fgrep".

ea335b56d4 Fix escaping of glob special characters in pathspecs
match_one implements an optimized pathspec match where it only uses
fnmatch if it detects glob special characters in the pattern. Unfortunately
it didn't treat \ as a special character, so attempts to escape a glob
special character would fail even though fnmatch() supports it.
