Versions before v1.5.1.2 cannot clone repos with packed refs over
http, and versions before v1.4.4 cannot handled packed refs at
all, but more recent git should have no problems. Try to make
this more clear in the git-config manual.

'make var.s' fails to regenerate an assembler listing if var.c
has not changed but a header it includes has:
$ make var.s
CC var.s
$ touch cache.h
$ make var.s
$
The corresponding problem for 'make var.o' does not occur because
the Makefile lists dependencies for each .o target explicitly;
analogous dependency rules for the .s targets are not present.
Rather than add some, it seems better to force 'make' to always
regenerate assembler listings, since the assembler listing
targets are only invoked when specifically requested on the make
command line.

uname might not be the best way to determine the default location for

Recall that MSYS bash converts POSIX style absolute paths to Windows style
absolute paths. Unfortunately, it converts a program argument that begins
with a double-quote and otherwise looks like an absolute POSIX path, but
in doing so, it strips everything past the second double-quote[*]. This
case is triggered in the two test scripts. The work-around is to place the
Windows style path returned by $(pwd) between the quotes to avoid the path
conversion.
[*] It is already bogus that a conversion is even considered when a program
argument begins with a double-quote because it cannot be an absolute POSIX
path.

The %.o: %.S pattern rule should depend on GIT-CFLAGS to avoid
trouble when ALL_CFLAGS changes.
The pattern only applies to one file (ppc/sha1ppc.S) and that
file does not use any #ifdefs, so leaving the dependency out is
probably harmless. Nevertheless, it is safer to include the
dependency in case future code's behavior does depend on the

Commit 9e8ecea (Add 'merge' mode to 'git reset', 2008-12-01) disallowed
"git reset --merge" when there was unmerged entries. But it wished if
unmerged entries were reset as if --hard (instead of --merge) has been
used. This makes sense because all "mergy" operations makes sure that
any path involved in the merge does not have local modifications before
starting, so resetting such a path away won't lose any information.
The previous commit changed the behavior of --merge to accept resetting
unmerged entries if they are reset to a different state than HEAD, but it
did not reset the changes in the work tree, leaving the conflict markers
in the resulting file in the work tree.
Fix it by doing three things:
- Update the documentation to match the wish of original "reset --merge"
better, namely, "An unmerged entry is a sign that the path didn't have
any local modification and can be safely resetted to whatever the new
HEAD records";
- Update read_index_unmerged(), which reads the index file into the cache
while dropping any higher-stage entries down to stage #0, not to copy
the object name from the higher stage entry. The code used to take the
object name from the a stage entry ("base" if you happened to have
stage #1, or "ours" if both sides added, etc.), which essentially meant
that you are getting random results depending on what the merge did.
The _only_ reason we want to keep a previously unmerged entry in the
index at stage #0 is so that we don't forget the fact that we have
corresponding file in the work tree in order to be able to remove it
when the tree we are resetting to does not have the path. In order to
differentiate such an entry from ordinary cache entry, the cache entry
added by read_index_unmerged() is marked as CE_CONFLICTED.
- Update merged_entry() and deleted_entry() so that they pay attention to
cache entries marked as CE_CONFLICTED. They are previously unmerged
entries, and the files in the work tree that correspond to them are
resetted away by oneway_merge() to the version from the tree we are
resetting to.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
This patch makes "reset_index_file()" call "unpack_trees()" directly
instead of forking and execing "git read-tree". So the code is more
efficient.
And it's also easier to see which unpack_tree() options will be used,
as we don't need to follow "git read-tree"'s command line parsing
which is quite complex.
As Daniel Barkalow found, there is a difference between this new
version and the old one. The old version gives an error for
"git reset --merge" with unmerged entries, and the new version does
not when we reset the entries to some states that differ from HEAD.
Instead, it resets the index entry and succeeds, while leaving the
conflict markers in the corresponding file in the work tree (which
will be corrected by the next patch).
The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project:

Many callsites run "sh -c $CMD" to run $CMD. We can make it
a little simpler for them by factoring out the munging of
argv.
For simple cases with no arguments, this doesn't help much, but:
1. For cases with arguments, we save the caller from
having to build the appropriate shell snippet.
2. We can later optimize to avoid the shell when
there are no metacharacters in the program.
