With this flag and given two paths, git-diff-files behaves as a GNU diff
lookalike (plus the git goodies like --check, colour, etc.). This flag
is also available in git-diff. It also works outside of a git repository.
In addition, if git-diff{,-files} is called without revision or stage
parameter, and with exactly two paths at least one of which is not tracked,
the default is --no-index.
So, you can now say
git diff /etc/inittab /etc/fstab
and it actually works!
This also unifies the duplicated argument parsing between cmd_diff_files()
and builtin_diff_files().

This delays the error exit from hold_lock_file_for_update() in
update-index, so that "update-index --refresh" in a read-only
repository can still report what paths are stat-dirty before
exiting.

This makes git-status work semi-decently in a read-only
repository. Earlier, the command simply died with "cannot lock
the index file" before giving any useful information to the
user.
Because index won't be updated in a read-only repository,
stat-dirty paths appear in the "Changed but not updated" list.

The Makefile for the git-gui subproject will fail to execute if run
outside of a git.git directory, such as when building from a .tar.gz

This enhances the third point in the previous commit. When
applying a non-git patch that begins like this:
--- 2.6.orig/mm/slab.c
+++ 2.6/mm/slab.c
@@ -N,M +L,K @@@
...
and if you are in 'mm' subdirectory, we notice that -p2 is the
right option to use to apply the patch in file slab.c in the
current directory (i.e. mm/slab.c)
The guess function also knows about this pattern, where you
would need to use -p0 if applying from the top-level:
--- mm/slab.c
+++ mm/slab.c
@@ -N,M +L,K @@@
...

Earlier one that tried to be too consistent with GNU patch by
not stripping the leading path when we _know_ we are in a
subdirectory and the patch is relative to the toplevel was a
mistake. This fixes it.
- No change to behaviour when it is run from the toplevel of
the repository.
- When run from a subdirectory to apply a git-generated patch,
it uses the right -p<n> value automatically, with or without
--index nor --cached option.
- When run from a subdirectory to apply a randomly generated
patch, it wants the right -p<n> value to be given by the
user.
The second one is a pure improvement to correct inconsistency
between --index and non --index case, compared with 1.5.0. The
third point could be further improved to guess what the right
value for -p<n> should be by looking at the patch, but should be
a topic of a separate patch.

In response to a feature request from Shawn Pearce, this patch allows
a user to update a named group of remotes by using "git remote update
<group>", where the group is defined in the config file by
remotes.<group>. The default if the named group is not specified is
now fetched group remotes.default, instead of remote.fetch, which is
what had been previously used.
In addition, if remotes.default is not defined, all remotes defined in
the config file will be used, as before, but there is now also
possible to request that a particular repository to be skipped by
default by using the boolean configuration parameter
remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate.

There were instances of strncmp() that were formatted improperly

that caused the earlier mechanical conversion step to miss

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
Previous step converted use of strncmp() with literal string
mechanically even when the result is only used as a boolean:
if (!strncmp("foo", arg, 3)) ==> if (!(-prefixcmp(arg, "foo")))
This step manually cleans them up to read:
if (!prefixcmp(arg, "foo"))
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
This mechanically converts strncmp() to use prefixcmp(), but only when
the parameters match specific patterns, so that they can be verified
easily. Leftover from this will be fixed in a separate step, including
idiotic conversions like
if (!strncmp("foo", arg, 3))
=>
if (!(-prefixcmp(arg, "foo")))
This was done by using this script in px.perl
#!/usr/bin/perl -i.bak -p
if (/strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)/ && (length($2) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)|prefixcmp($1, "$2")|;
}
if (/strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)/ && (length($1) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)|(-prefixcmp($2, "$1"))|;
}
and running:
$ git grep -l strncmp -- '*.c' | xargs perl px.perl

The Firefox browser requires that a URL use / to delimit directories.
This is instead of \, as \ gets escaped by the browser into its hex
escape code and then relative URLs are incorrectly resolved, Firefox
no longer sees the directories for what they are. Since we are
handing the browser a true URL, we better use the standard / for
directories.

git-apply running inside a subdirectory, with or without --index,
used to always assume that the patch is formatted in such a way
to apply with -p1 from the toplevel, but it is more useful and
consistent with the use of "GNU patch -p1" if it defaulted to
assume that its input is meant to apply at the level it is
invoked in.
This changes the behaviour. It used to be that the patch
generated this way would apply without any trick:
edit Documentation/Makefile
git diff >patch.file
cd Documentation
git apply ../patch.file
You need to give an explicit -p2 to git-apply now. On the other
hand, if you got a patch from somebody else who did not follow
"patch is to apply from the top with -p1" convention, the input
patch would start with:
diff -u Makefile.old Makefile
--- Makefile.old
+++ Makefile
and in such a case, you can apply it with:
git apply -p0 patch.file

When a patch modifies (not deletes) the last file in a
directory, because we treat a modification just as deletion
followed by creation, and deleting the last file in a directory
automatically rmdir(2)'s that directory, we ended up removing
the directory, which can potentially be the cwd, and then
recreating the same directory to create the patch result.
Avoid the rmdir step when remove_file() is called only because
we are replacing it with the result by later calling
create_file().
