55ccf85a52 reflog-walk: tell explicit --date=default from not having --date at all
Introduction of opt->date_mode_explicit was a step in the right direction,
but lost that crucial bit at the very end of the callchain, and the callee
could not tell an explicitly specified "I want *date* but in default format"
from the built-in default value passed when there was no --date specified.

794151e9b5 reflog-walk: always make HEAD@{0} show indexed selectors
When we are showing reflog selectors during a walk, we infer
from context whether the user wanted to see the index in
each selector, or the reflog date. The current rules are:

  1. if the user asked for an explicit date format in the
     output, show the date

  2. if the user asked for ref@{now}, show the date

  3. if neither is true, show the index

However,  if we see "ref@{0}", that should be a strong clue
that the user wants to see the counted version. In fact, it
should be much stronger than the date format in (1). The
user may have been setting the date format to use in another
part of the output (e.g., in --format="%gd (%ad)", they may
have wanted to influence the author date).

This patch flips the rules to:

  1. if the user asked for ref@{0}, always show the index

  2. if the user asked for ref@{now}, always show the date

  3. otherwise, we have just "ref"; show them counted by
     default, but respect the presence of "--date" as a clue
     that the user wanted them date-based

a763126b5c reflog-walk: clean up "flag" field of commit_reflog struct
When we prepare to walk a reflog, we parse the specification
and pull some information from it, such as which reflog to
look in (e.g., HEAD), and where to start (e.g., HEAD@{10} or
HEAD@{yesterday}). The resulting struct has a "recno" field
to show where in the reflog we are starting. It also has a
"flag" field; if true, it means the recno field came from
parsing a date like HEAD@{yesterday}.

There are two problems with this:

  1. "flag" is an absolutely terrible name, as it conveys
     nothing about the meaning

  2. you can tell "HEAD" from "HEAD@{yesterday}", but you
     can't differentiate "HEAD" from "HEAD{0}"

This patch converts the flag into a tri-state (and gives it
a better name!).

f026c7563a log: respect date_mode_explicit with --format:%gd
When we show a reflog selector (e.g., via "git log -g"), we
perform some DWIM magic: while we normally show the entry's
index (e.g., HEAD@{1}), if the user has given us a date
with "--date", then we show a date-based select (e.g.,
HEAD@{yesterday}).

However, we don't want to trigger this magic if the
alternate date format we got was from the "log.date"
configuration; that is not sufficiently strong context for
us to invoke this particular magic. To fix this, commit
f4ea32f (improve reflog date/number heuristic, 2009-09-24)
introduced a "date_mode_explicit" flag in rev_info. This
flag is set only when we see a "--date" option on the
command line, and we a vanilla date to the reflog code if
the date was not explicit.

Later, commit 8f8f547 (Introduce new pretty formats %g[sdD]
for reflog information, 2009-10-19) added another way to
show selectors, and it did not respect the date_mode_explicit
flag from f4ea32f.

This patch propagates the date_mode_explicit flag to the
pretty-print code, which can then use it to pass the
appropriate date field to the reflog code. This brings the
behavior of "%gd" in line with the other formats, and means
that its output is independent of any user configuration.

7904af1c10 t1411: add more selector index/date tests
We already check that @{now} and "--date" cause the
displayed selector to use the date for both the multiline
and oneline formats. However, we miss several cases:

  1. The --format=%gd selector is not tested at all.

  2. We do not check how the log.date config interacts with the
     "--date" magic (according to f4ea32f, it should not
     impact the output).

Doing so reveals that the combination of both (log.date
combined with the %gd format) does not behave as expected.

97afde15f5 bundle: remove stray single-quote from error message
After running rev-list --boundary to retrieve the list of boundary
commits, "git bundle create" runs its own revision walk.  If in this
stage git encounters an unfamiliar option, it writes a message with an
unbalanced quotation mark:

	error: unrecognized argument: --foo'

Drop the stray quote to match the "unrecognized argument: %s" message
used elsewhere and save translators some work.

This is mostly a futureproofing measure: for now, the "rev-list
--boundary" command catches most strange arguments on its own and the
above message is not seen unless you try something esoteric like "git
bundle create test.bundle --header HEAD".

28b22f8af9 imap-send: remove dead code
The imap-send code was adapted from another project, and
still contains many unused bits of code. One of these bits
contains a type "struct string_list" which bears no
resemblence to the "struct string_list" we use elsewhere in
git. This causes the compiler to complain if git's
string_list ever becomes part of cache.h.

5c8eeb83db diff-index: enable recursive pathspec matching in unpack_trees
The pathspec structure has a few bits of data to drive various operation
modes after we unified the pathspec matching logic in various codepaths.
For example, max_depth field is there so that "git grep" can limit the
output for files found in limited depth of tree traversal. Also in order
to show just the surface level differences in "git diff-tree", recursive
field stops us from descending into deeper level of the tree structure
when it is set to false, and this also affects pathspec matching when
we have wildcards in the pathspec.

The diff-index has always wanted the recursive behaviour, and wanted to
match pathspecs without any depth limit. But we forgot to do so when we
updated tree_entry_interesting() logic to unify the pathspec matching
logic.

15f07e061e thin-pack: try harder to use preferred base objects as base
When creating a pack using objects that reside in existing packs, we try
to avoid recomputing futile delta between an object (trg) and a candidate
for its base object (src) if they are stored in the same packfile, and trg
is not recorded as a delta already. This heuristics makes sense because it
is likely that we tried to express trg as a delta based on src but it did
not produce a good delta when we created the existing pack.

As the pack heuristics prefer producing delta to remove data, and Linus's
law dictates that the size of a file grows over time, we tend to record
the newest version of the file as inflated, and older ones as delta
against it.

When creating a thin-pack to transfer recent history, it is likely that we
will try to send an object that is recorded in full, as it is newer.  But
the heuristics to avoid recomputing futile delta effectively forbids us
from attempting to express such an object as a delta based on another
object. Sending an object in full is often more expensive than sending a
suboptimal delta based on other objects, and it is even more so if we
could use an object we know the receiving end already has (i.e. preferred
base object) as the delta base.

Tweak the recomputation avoidance logic, so that we do not punt on
computing delta against a preferred base object.

The effect of this change can be seen on two simulated upload-pack
workloads. The first is based on 44 reflog entries from my git.git
origin/master reflog, and represents the packs that kernel.org sent me git
updates for the past month or two. The second workload represents much
larger fetches, going from git's v1.0.0 tag to v1.1.0, then v1.1.0 to
v1.2.0, and so on.

The table below shows the average generated pack size and the average CPU
time consumed for each dataset, both before and after the patch:

                  dataset
            | reflog | tags
---------------------------------
     before | 53358  | 2750977
size  after | 32398  | 2668479
     change |   -39% |      -3%
---------------------------------
     before |  0.18  | 1.12
CPU   after |  0.18  | 1.15
     change |    +0% |      +3%

This patch makes a much bigger difference for packs with a shorter slice
of history (since its effect is seen at the boundaries of the pack) though
it has some benefit even for larger packs.

77f7f82288 attr: drop misguided defensive coding
In prepare_attr_stack, we pop the old elements of the stack
(which were left from a previous lookup and may or may not
be useful to us). Our loop to do so checks that we never
reach the top of the stack. However, the code immediately
afterwards will segfault if we did actually reach the top of
the stack.

Fortunately, this is not an actual bug, since we will never
pop all of the stack elements (we will always keep the root
gitattributes, as well as the builtin ones). So the extra
check in the loop condition simply clutters the code and
makes the intent less clear. Let's get rid of it.

1afca44495 attr: don't confuse prefixes with leading directories
When we prepare the attribute stack for a lookup on a path,
we start with the cached stack from the previous lookup
(because it is common to do several lookups in the same
directory hierarchy). So the first thing we must do in
preparing the stack is to pop any entries that point to
directories we are no longer interested in.

For example, if our stack contains gitattributes for:

  foo/bar/baz
  foo/bar
  foo

but we want to do a lookup in "foo/bar/bleep", then we want
to pop the top element, but retain the others.

To do this we walk down the stack from the top, popping
elements that do not match our lookup directory. However,
the test do this simply checked strncmp, meaning we would
mistake "foo/bar/baz" as a leading directory of
"foo/bar/baz_plus". We must also check that the character
after our match is '/', meaning we matched the whole path
component.

There are two special cases to consider:

  1. The top of our attr stack has the empty path. So we
     must not check for '/', but rather special-case the
     empty path, which always matches.

  2. Typically when matching paths in this way, you would
     also need to check for a full string match (i.e., the
     character after is '\0'). We don't need to do so in
     this case, though, because our path string is actually
     just the directory component of the path to a file
     (i.e., we know that it terminates with "/", because the
     filename comes after that).

332de7a1c8 Add MYMETA.yml to perl/.gitignore

Makefile-building process, and should be ignored.
