When we send out pkt-lines with refnames, we use a static
1000-byte buffer. This means that the maximum size of a ref
over the git protocol is around 950 bytes (the exact size
depends on the protocol line being written, but figure on a sha1
plus some boilerplate).
This is enough for any sane workflow, but occasionally odd
things happen (e.g., a bug may create a ref "foo/foo/foo/..."
accidentally). With the current code, you cannot even use
"push" to delete such a ref from a remote.
Let's switch to using a strbuf, with a hard-limit of
LARGE_PACKET_MAX (which is specified by the protocol). This
matches the size of the readers, as of 74543a0 (pkt-line:
provide a LARGE_PACKET_MAX static buffer, 2013-02-20).
Versions of git older than that will complain about our
large packets, but it's really no worse than the current
behavior. Right now the sender barfs with "impossibly long
line" trying to send the packet, and afterwards the reader
will barf with "protocol error: bad line length %d", which
is arguably better anyway.
Note that we're not really _solving_ the problem here, but
just bumping the limits. In theory, the length of a ref is
unbounded, and pkt-line can only represent sizes up to
65531 bytes. So we are just bumping the limit, not removing
it. But hopefully 64K should be enough for anyone.
As a bonus, by using a strbuf for the formatting we can
eliminate an unnecessary copy in format_buf_write.

We want to recognize the packed-refs header and skip to the
"traits" part of the line. We currently do it by feeding
sizeof() a static const array to strncmp. However, it's a
bit simpler to just skip_prefix, which expresses the
intention more directly, and without remembering to account
for the NUL-terminator in each sizeof() call.

Current code uses a fixed PATH_MAX-sized buffer for reading
packed-refs lines. This is a reasonable guess, in the sense
that git generally cannot work with refs larger than
PATH_MAX. However, there are a few cases where it is not
great:
1. Some systems may have a low value of PATH_MAX, but can
actually handle larger paths in practice. Fixing this
code path probably isn't enough to make them work
completely with long refs, but it is a step in the
right direction.
2. We use fgets, which will happily give us half a line on
the first read, and then the rest of the line on the
second. This is probably OK in practice, because our
refline parser is careful enough to look for the
trailing newline on the first line. The second line may
look like a peeled line to us, but since "^" is illegal
in refnames, it is not likely to come up.
Still, it does not hurt to be more careful.

Many users misunderstand the --assume-unchanged contract, believing
it means Git won't look at the flagged file.
Be explicit that the --assume-unchanged contract is by the user that
they will NOT change the file so that Git does not need to look (and
expend, for example, lstat(2) cycles)
Mentioning "Git stops checking" does not help the reader, as it is
only one possible consequence of what that assumption allows Git to
do, but
(1) there are things other than "stop checking" that Git can do
based on that assumption; and
(2) Git is not obliged to stop checking; it merely is allowed to.
Also, this is a single flag bit, correct the plural to singular, and
the verb, accordingly.
Drop the stale and incorrect information about "poor-man's ignore",
which is not what this flag bit is about at all.

At least on this developer's MacOSX (Snow Leopard, gcc-4.2.1), GCC
prints a warning that 'hash' may be used uninitialized when
compiling test-hashmap that 'hash' may be used uninitialized (but
GCC 4.6.3 on this developer's Ubuntu server does not report this
problem).
The old compiler is wrong, of course, as the switch (method & 3)
statement already handles all the possible cases, but that does not
help in a scenario where it is hard or impossible to upgrade to a
newer compiler (e.g. being stuck on an older MacOSX and having to
rely on Xcode).
So let's just initialize the variable and be done with it, it is
hardly a crucial part of the code because it is only used by the

When we detect an invalid tag-name header in a tag object,
like, "tag foo bar\n", we feed the pointer starting at "foo
bar" to a printf "%s" formatter. This shows the name, as we
want, but then it keeps printing the rest of the tag buffer,
rather than stopping at the end of the line.
Our tests did not notice because they look only for the
matching line, but the bug is that we print much more than
we wanted to. So we also adjust the test to be more exact.
Note that when fscking tags with "index-pack --strict", this
is even worse. index-pack does not add a trailing
NUL-terminator after the object, so we may actually read
past the buffer and print uninitialized memory. Running
t5302 with valgrind does notice the bug for that reason.

When we read a reflog file in reverse, we read whole chunks
of BUFSIZ bytes, then loop over the buffer, parsing any
lines we find. We find the beginning of each line by looking
for the newline from the previous line. If we don't find
one, we know that we are either at the beginning of
the file, or that we have to read another block.
In the latter case, we stuff away what we have into a
strbuf, read another block, and continue our parse. But we
missed one case here. If we did find a newline, and it is at
the beginning of the block, we must also stuff that newline
into the strbuf, as it belongs to the block we are about to
read.
The minimal fix here would be to add this special case to
the conditional that checks whether we found a newline.
But we can make the flow a little clearer by rearranging a
bit: we first handle lines that we are going to show, and
then at the end of each loop, stuff away any leftovers if
necessary. That lets us fold this special-case in with the
more common "we ended in the middle of a line" case.

bits to those used by most operating systems. It also rewrites the

If you run git as part of an automated system, you might
prefer git to die rather than try to issue a prompt on the
terminal (because there would be nobody to see it and
respond, and the process would hang forever).
This usually works out of the box because getpass() (and our
more featureful replacements) will fail when there is no
tty, but this does not cover all cases. For example, a batch
system run via ssh might have a tty, even when the user does
not expect it.

avoid even trying to touch the tty at all.

When we are trying to fill a credential, we loop over the
set of defined credential-helpers, then fall back to running
askpass, and then finally prompt on the terminal. Helpers
which cannot find a credential are free to tell us nothing,
but they cannot currently ask us to stop prompting.
This patch lets them provide a "quit" attribute, which asks
us to stop the process entirely (avoiding running more
helpers, as well as the askpass/terminal prompt).
This has a few possible uses:
1. A helper which prompts the user itself (e.g., in a
dialog) can provide a "cancel" button to the user to
stop further prompts.
2. Some helpers may know that prompting cannot possibly
work. For example, if their role is to broker a ticket
from an external auth system and that auth system
cannot be contacted, there is no point in continuing
(we need a ticket to authenticate, and the user cannot
provide one by typing it in).

The plan for the push.default transition had all along been
to use the "simple" method rather than "upstream" as a
default if the user did not specify their own push.default
value. Commit 11037ee (push: switch default from "matching"
to "simple", 2013-01-04) tried to implement that by moving
PUSH_DEFAULT_UNSPECIFIED in our switch statement to
fall-through to the PUSH_DEFAULT_SIMPLE case.
When the commit that became 11037ee was originally written,
that would have been enough. We would fall through to
calling setup_push_upstream() with the "simple" parameter
set to 1. However, it was delayed for a while until we were
ready to make the transition in Git 2.0.
And in the meantime, commit ed2b182 (push: change `simple`
to accommodate triangular workflows, 2013-06-19) threw a
monkey wrench into the works. That commit drops the "simple"
parameter to setup_push_upstream, and instead checks whether
the global "push_default" is PUSH_DEFAULT_SIMPLE. This is
right when the user has explicitly configured push.default
to simple, but wrong when we are a fall-through for the
"unspecified" case.
We never noticed because our push.default tests do not cover
the case of the variable being totally unset; they only
check the "simple" behavior itself.

feature itself wants to require the working tree to be a lot cleaner
than what is tested. Add a handful more tests to protect the
feature from future changes that mistakenly (from the viewpoint of
the inventor of the feature) loosens the cleanliness requirement,
namely:
- A change only to the working tree but not to the index is still a
change to be protected;
- An untracked file in the working tree that would be overwritten
by a push-to-deploy needs to be protected;
- A change that happens to make a file identical to what is being
pushed is still a change to be protected (i.e. the feature's
cleanliness requirement is more strict than that of checkout).
Also, test that a stat-only change to the working tree is not a
