83bd7437ca write_index: optionally allow broken null sha1s
Commit 4337b58 (do not write null sha1s to on-disk index,
2012-07-28) added a safety check preventing git from writing
null sha1s into the index. The intent was to catch errors in
other parts of the code that might let such an entry slip
into the index (or worse, a tree).

Some existing repositories may have invalid trees that
contain null sha1s already, though.  Until 4337b58, a common
way to clean this up would be to use git-filter-branch's
index-filter to repair such broken entries.  That now fails
when filter-branch tries to write out the index.

Introduce a GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1 environment variable to
relax this check and make it easier to recover from such a
history.

It is tempting to not involve filter-branch in this commit
at all, and instead require the user to manually invoke

	GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1=1 git filter-branch ...

to perform an index-filter on a history with trees with null
sha1s.  That would be slightly safer, but requires some
specialized knowledge from the user.  So let's set the
GIT_ALLOW_NULL_SHA1 variable automatically when checking out
the to-be-filtered trees.  Advice on using filter-branch to
remove such entries already exists on places like
stackoverflow, and this patch makes it Just Work again on
recent versions of git.

Further commands that touch the index will still notice and
fail, unless they actually remove the broken entries.  A
filter-branch whose filters do not touch the index at all
will not error out (since we complain of the null sha1 only
on writing, not when making a tree out of the index), but
this is acceptable, as we still print a loud warning, so the
problem is unlikely to go unnoticed.

286bc123cd diff --no-index: describe in a separate paragraph
The documentation for "diff-files" mode of "git diff" primarily
talks about how changes in the files in the working tree are shown
relative to the contents previously added to that index, and tucks

different way, may be implicitly used instead.  Instead, add a

f972a1658a mailmap: handle mailmap blobs without trailing newlines
The read_mailmap_buf function reads each line of the mailmap
using strchrnul, like:

    const char *end = strchrnul(buf, '\n');
    unsigned long linelen = end - buf + 1;

But that's off-by-one when we actually hit the NUL byte; our
line does not have a terminator, and so is only "end - buf"
bytes long. As a result, when we subtract the linelen from
the total len, we end up with (unsigned long)-1 bytes left
in the buffer, and we start reading random junk from memory.

We could fix it with:

    unsigned long linelen = end - buf + !!*end;

but let's take a step back for a moment. It's questionable
in the first place for a function that takes a buffer and
length to be using strchrnul. But it works because we only
have one caller (and are only likely to ever have this one),
which is handing us data from read_sha1_file. Which means
that it's always NUL-terminated.

Instead of tightening the assumptions to make the
buffer/length pair work for a caller that doesn't actually
exist, let's let loosen the assumptions to what the real
caller has: a modifiable, NUL-terminated string.

This makes the code simpler and shorter (because we don't
have to correlate strchrnul with the length calculation),
correct (because the code with the off-by-one just goes
away), and more efficient (we can drop the extra allocation
we needed to create NUL-terminated strings for each line,
and just terminate in place).

f21d2a786b Add testcase for needless objects during a shallow fetch
This is a testcase that checks for a problem where, during a specific
shallow fetch where the client does not have any commits that are a
successor of the new shallow root (i.e., the fetch creates a new
detached piece of history), the server would simply send over _all_
objects, instead of taking into account the objects already present in
the client.

The actual problem was fixed by a recent patch series by Nguyễn Thái
Ngọc Duy already.

fbd4a7036d list-objects: mark more commits as edges in mark_edges_uninteresting
The purpose of edge commits is to let pack-objects know what objects
it can use as base, but does not need to include in the thin pack
because the other side is supposed to already have them. So far we
mark uninteresting parents of interesting commits as edges. But even
an unrelated uninteresting commit (that the other side has) may
become a good base for pack-objects and help produce more efficient
packs.

This is especially true for shallow clone, when the client issues a
fetch with a depth smaller or equal to the number of commits the
server is ahead of the client. For example, in this commit history
the client has up to "A" and the server has up to "B":

    -------A---B
     have--^   ^
              /
       want--+

If depth 1 is requested, the commit list to send to the client
includes only B. The way m_e_u is working, it checks if parent
commits of B are uninteresting, if so mark them as edges.  Due to
shallow effect, commit B is grafted to have no parents and the
revision walker never sees A as the parent of B. In fact it marks no
edges at all in this simple case and sends everything B has to the
client even if it could have excluded what A and also the client
already have.

In a slightly different case where A is not a direct parent of B
(iow there are commits in between A and B), marking A as an edge can
still save some because B may still have stuff from the far ancestor
A.

There is another case from the earlier patch, when we deepen a ref
from C->E to A->E:

    ---A---B   C---D---E
     want--^   ^       ^
       shallow-+      /
          have-------+

In this case we need to send A and B to the client, and C (i.e. the
current shallow point that the client informs the server) is a very
good base because it's closet to A and B. Normal m_e_u won't recognize
C as an edge because it only looks back to parents (i.e. A<-B) not the
opposite way B->C even if C is already marked as uninteresting commit
by the previous patch.

This patch includes all uninteresting commits from command line as
edges and lets pack-objects decide what's best to do. The upside is we
have better chance of producing better packs in certain cases. The
downside is we may need to process some extra objects on the server
side.

For the shallow case on git.git, when the client is 5 commits behind
and does "fetch --depth=3", the result pack is 99.26 KiB instead of
4.92 MiB.

cdab485853 upload-pack: delegate rev walking in shallow fetch to pack-objects
upload-pack has a special revision walking code for shallow
recipients. It works almost like the similar code in pack-objects
except:

1. in upload-pack, graft points could be added for deepening;

2. also when the repository is deepened, the shallow point will be
   moved further away from the tip, but the old shallow point will be
   marked as edge to produce more efficient packs. See 6523078 (make
   shallow repository deepening more network efficient - 2009-09-03).

Pass the file to pack-objects via --shallow-file. This will override
$GIT_DIR/shallow and give pack-objects the exact repository shape
that upload-pack has.

mark edge commits by revision command arguments. Even if old shallow
points are passed as "--not" revisions as in this patch, they will not
be picked up by mark_edges_uninteresting() because this function looks
up to parents for edges, while in this case the edge is the children,
in the opposite direction. This will be fixed in an later patch when
all given uninteresting commits are marked as edges.

49d6cfa5c2 config: do not use C function names as struct members
According to C99, section 7.1.4:

  Any function declared in a header may be additionally
  implemented as a function-like macro defined in the
  header.

Therefore calling our struct member function pointer "fgetc"
may run afoul of unwanted macro expansion when we call:

  char c = cf->fgetc(cf);

This turned out to be a problem on uclibc, which defines
fgetc as a macro and causes compilation failure.

The standard suggests fixing this in a few ways:

  1. Using extra parentheses to inhibit the function-like
     macro expansion. E.g., "(cf->fgetc)(cf)". This is
     undesirable as it's ugly, and each call site needs to
     remember to use it (and on systems without the macro,
     forgetting will compile just fine).

  2. Using #undef (because a conforming implementation must
     also be providing fgetc as a function). This is
     undesirable because presumably the implementation was
     using the macro for a performance benefit, and we are
     dropping that optimization.

Instead, we can simply use non-colliding names.

f223459bec status: always show tracking branch even no change
In order to see what the current branch is tracking, one way is using
"git branch -v -v", but branches other than the current are also
reported. Another way is using "git status", such as:

    $ git status
    # On branch master
    # Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
    ...

But this will not work if there is no change between the current
branch and its upstream. Always report upstream tracking info
even if there is no difference, so that "git status" is consistent
for checking tracking info for current branch. E.g.

    $ git status
    # On branch feature1
    # Your branch is up-to-date with 'github/feature1'.
    ...

    $ git status -bs
    ## feature1...github/feature1
    ...

    $ git checkout feature1
    Already on 'feature1'
    Your branch is up-to-date with 'github/feature1'.
    ...

f2e087395b branch: report invalid tracking branch as gone
Command "git branch -vv" will report tracking branches, but invalid
tracking branches are also reported. This is because the function
stat_tracking_info() can not distinguish invalid tracking branch
from other cases which it would not like to report, such as
there is no upstream settings at all, or nothing is changed between
one branch and its upstream.

Junio suggested missing upstream should be reported [1] like:

    $ git branch -v -v
      master    e67ac84 initial
    * topic     3fc0f2a [topicbase: gone] topic

    $ git status
    # On branch topic
    # Your branch is based on 'topicbase', but the upstream is gone.
    #   (use "git branch --unset-upstream" to fixup)
    ...

    $ git status -b -s
    ## topic...topicbase [gone]
    ...

In order to do like that, we need to distinguish these three cases
(i.e. no tracking, with configured but no longer valid tracking, and
with tracking) in function stat_tracking_info(). So the refactored
function stat_tracking_info() has three return values: -1 (with "gone"
base), 0 (no base), and 1 (with base).

If the caller does not like to report tracking info when nothing
changed between the branch and its upstream, simply checks if
num_theirs and num_ours are both 0.

For example:

  edit f00dfad first
  pick badbeef second

If, after editing, the new SHA-1 of "first" also has prefix badbeef,
then the subsequent 'pick badbeef second' will fail since badbeef is no
longer a unique SHA-1 abbreviation:

  error: short SHA1 badbeef is ambiguous.
  fatal: Needed a single revision
  Invalid commit name: badbeef

Fix this problem by expanding the SHA-1's in the todo list before

6da8bdcbbf fetch-pack: do not remove .git/shallow file when --depth is not specified
fetch_pack() can remove .git/shallow file when a shallow repository
becomes a full one again. This behavior is triggered incorrectly when
tags are also fetched because fetch_pack() will be called twice. At
the first fetch_pack() call:

 - shallow_lock is set up
 - alternate_shallow_file points to shallow_lock.filename, which is
   "shallow.lock"
 - commit_lock_file is called, which sets shallow_lock.filename to "".
   alternate_shallow_file also becomes "" because it points to the
   same memory.

At the second call, setup_alternate_shallow() is not called and
alternate_shallow_file remains "". It's mistaken as unshallow case and
.git/shallow is removed. The end result is a broken repository.

Fix this by always initializing alternate_shallow_file when
fetch_pack() is called. As an extra measure, check if args->depth > 0
before commit/rollback shallow file.

87c9a140d2 Documentation/fast-import: clarify summary for feature command
In most cases, "feature <foo>" does not just require that the feature
exists, but also changes the behavior by enabling it.

Cases where the feature is only requested like cat-blob, notes or ls are
clearly documented below.

95728f74b1 reset test: modernize style
Avoid command substitution and pipes to ensure that the exit status
from each git command is tested (and in particular that any segfaults
are caught).

Maintain the test setup (no commits, one file named "a", another named
"b") even after the last test, to make it easier to rearrange tests or
add new tests after the last in the future.

a070221eed add -i test: use skip_all instead of repeated PERL prerequisite
It is too easy to forget to add the PERL prerequisite for new
"add -i" tests, especially given that many people do not test with
NO_PERL so the missing prereq is not always noticed quickly.

The test had used the skip_all mechanism since 1b19ccd2 (2009-04-03)
but switched to explicit PERL prereqs in f0459319 (2010-10-13) in hope
of helping people see how many tests were skipped, perhaps to motivate
them to tweak their platform or tests to improve test coverage.  That
didn't pan out much in practice, so let's move back to the simpler
skip_all method.

b2ef3d9ebb test index-pack on packs with recoverable delta cycles
The previous commit added tests to show that index-pack
correctly bails in unrecoverable situations. There are some
situations where the data could be recovered, but it is not
currently:

  1. If we can break the cycle using an object from another
     pack via --fix-thin.

  2. If we can break the cycle using a duplicate of one of
     the objects found in the same pack.

Note that neither of these is particularly high priority; a
delta cycle within a pack should never occur, and we have no
record of even a buggy git implementation creating such a
pack.

However, it's worth adding these tests for two reasons. One,
to document that we do not currently handle the situation,
even though it is possible. And two, to exercise the code
that runs in this situation; even though it fails, by
running it we can confirm that index-pack detects the
situation and aborts, and does not misbehave (e.g., by
following the cycle in an infinite loop).

In both cases, we hit an assert that aborts index-pack.

3b910d0c5e add tests for indexing packs with delta cycles
If we receive a broken or malicious pack from a remote, we
will feed it to index-pack. As index-pack processes the
objects as a stream, reconstructing and hashing each object
to get its name, it is not very susceptible to doing the
wrong with bad data (it simply notices that the data is
bogus and aborts).

However, one question raised on the list is whether it could
be susceptible to problems during the delta-resolution
phase. In particular, can a cycle in the packfile deltas
cause us to go into an infinite loop or cause any other
problem?

The answer is no.

We cannot have a cycle of delta-base offsets, because they
go only in one direction (the OFS_DELTA object mentions its
base by an offset towards the beginning of the file, and we
explicitly reject negative offsets).

We can have a cycle of REF_DELTA objects, which refer to
base objects by sha1 name. However, index-pack does not know
these sha1 names ahead of time; it has to reconstruct the
objects to get their names, and it cannot do so if there is
a delta cycle (in other words, it does not even realize
there is a cycle, but only that there are items that cannot
be resolved).

Even though we can reason out that index-pack should handle
this fine, let's add a few tests to make sure it behaves
correctly.

171bdaca69 sha1-lookup: handle duplicate keys with GIT_USE_LOOKUP
The sha1_entry_pos function tries to be smart about
selecting the middle of a range for its binary search by
looking at the value differences between the "lo" and "hi"
constraints. However, it is unable to cope with entries with
duplicate keys in the sorted list.

We may hit a point in the search where both our "lo" and
"hi" point to the same key. In this case, the range of
values between our endpoints is 0, and trying to scale the
difference between our key and the endpoints over that range
is undefined (i.e., divide by zero). The current code
catches this with an "assert(lov < hiv)".

Moreover, after seeing that the first 20 byte of the key are
the same, we will try to establish a value from the 21st
byte. Which is nonsensical.

Instead, we can detect the case that we are in a run of
duplicates, and simply do a final comparison against any one
of them (since they are all the same, it does not matter
which). If the keys match, we have found our entry (or one
of them, anyway).  If not, then we know that we do not need
to look further, as we must be in a run of the duplicate
key.

ea16794e43 commit: search author pattern against mailmap
"git commit --author=$name" sets the author to one whose name
matches the given string from existing commits, when $name is not in
the "Name <e-mail>" format. However, it does not honor the mailmap
to use the canonical name for the author found this way.

Fix it by telling the logic to find a matching existing author to
honor the mailmap, and use the name and email after applying the
mailmap.

680be044d9 dir.c::test_one_path(): work around directory_exists_in_index_icase() breakage
directory_exists_in_index() takes pathname and its length, but its
helper function directory_exists_in_index_icase() reads one byte
beyond the end of the pathname and expects there to be a '/'.

This needs to be fixed, as that one-byte-beyond-the-end location may
not even be readable, possibly by not registering directories to
name hashes with trailing slashes.  In the meantime, update the new
caller added recently to treat_one_path() to make sure that the path
buffer it gives the function is one byte longer than the path it is
asking the function about by appending a slash to it.
