When bisecting a performance regression using a config file,

to try to send this output to a Codespeed server.

If you do something like
- git add .
- git status
- git commit
- git show (or git diff HEAD)
one would expect to have analogous output from git status and git show
(or similar diff-related programs). This is generally not the case, as
git status has hard coded values for diff related options.
With this commit the hard coded settings are dropped from the status
command in favour for values provided by git_diff_ui_config.
What follows are some remarks on the concrete options which were hard
coded in git status:
diffopt.detect_rename
Since the very beginning of git status in a3e870f2e2 ("Add "commit"
helper script", 2005-05-30), git status always used rename detection,
whereas with commands like show and log one had to activate it with a
command line option. After 5404c116aa ("diff: activate diff.renames by
default", 2016-02-25) the default behaves the same by coincidence, but
changing diff.renames to other values can break the consistency between
git status and other commands again. With this commit one control the
same default behaviour with diff.renames.
diffopt.rename_limit
Similarly one has the option diff.renamelimit to adjust this limit for
all commands but git status. With this commit git status will also honor
those.
diffopt.break_opt
Unlike the other two options this cannot be configured by a
configuration option yet. This commit will also change the default
behaviour to not use break rewrites. But as rename detection is most
likely on, this is dangerous to be activated anyway as one can see
here:

It is not uncommon to request that the output remains visible in

it is a bit cumbersome to type, even when command completion is

The semantic patch 'contrib/coccinelle/commit.cocci' added in
2e27bd7731 (treewide: replace maybe_tree with accessor methods,
2018-04-06) is supposed to "ensure that all references to the
'maybe_tree' member of struct commit are either mutations or accesses
through get_commit_tree()". So get_commit_tree() clearly must be able
to directly access the 'maybe_tree' member, and 'commit.cocci' has a
bit of a roundabout workaround to ensure that get_commit_tree()'s
direct access in its return statement is not transformed: after all
references to 'maybe_tree' have been transformed to a call to
get_commit_tree(), including the reference in get_commit_tree()
itself, the last rule transforms back a 'return get_commit_tree()'
statement, back then found only in get_commit_tree() itself, to a
direct access.
Unfortunately, already the very next commit shows that this workaround
is insufficient: 7b8a21dba1 (commit-graph: lazy-load trees for
commits, 2018-04-06) extends get_commit_tree() with a condition
directly accessing the 'maybe_tree' member, and Coccinelle with
'commit.cocci' promptly detects it and suggests a transformation to
avoid it. This transformation is clearly wrong, because calling
get_commit_tree() to access 'maybe_tree' _in_ get_commit_tree() would
obviously lead to recursion. Furthermore, the same commit added
another, more specialized getter function get_commit_tree_in_graph(),
whose legitimate direct access to 'maybe_tree' triggers a similar
wrong transformation suggestion.
Exclude both of these getter functions from the general rule in
'commit.cocci' that matches their direct accesses to 'maybe_tree'.
Also exclude load_tree_for_commit(), which, as static helper funcion
of get_commit_tree_in_graph(), has legitimate direct access to
'maybe_tree' as well.
The last rule transforming back 'return get_commit_tree()' statements
to direct accesses thus became unnecessary, remove it.

Currently, all callers of unpack_trees() set o->src_index == o->dst_index.
The code in unpack_trees() does not correctly handle them being different.
There are two separate issues:
First, there is the possibility of memory corruption. Since
unpack_trees() creates a temporary index in o->result and then discards
o->dst_index and overwrites it with o->result, in the special case that
o->src_index == o->dst_index, it is safe to just reuse o->src_index's
split_index for o->result. However, when src and dst are different,
reusing o->src_index's split_index for o->result will cause the
split_index to be shared. If either index then has entries replaced or
removed, it will result in the other index referring to free()'d memory.
Second, we can drop the index extensions. Previously, we were moving
index extensions from o->dst_index to o->result. Since o->src_index is
the one that will have the necessary extensions (o->dst_index is likely to
be a new index temporary index created to store the results), we should be
moving the index extensions from there.

During a series of fixup/squash commands, the interactive rebase builds
up a commit message with comments. This will be presented to the user in
the editor if at least one of those commands was a `squash`.
In any case, the commit message will be cleaned up eventually, removing
all those intermediate comments, in the final step of such a
fixup/squash chain.
However, if the last fixup/squash command in such a chain fails with
merge conflicts, and if the user then decides to skip it (or resolve it
to a clean worktree and then continue the rebase), the current code
fails to clean up the commit message.
This commit fixes that behavior.
The fix is quite a bit more involved than meets the eye because it is
not only about the question whether we are `git rebase --skip`ing a
fixup or squash. It is also about removing the skipped fixup/squash's
commit message from the accumulated commit message. And it is also about
the question whether we should let the user edit the final commit
message or not ("Was there a squash in the chain *that was not
skipped*?").
For example, in this case we will want to fix the commit message, but
not open it in an editor:
pick <- succeeds
fixup <- succeeds
squash <- fails, will be skipped
This is where the newly-introduced `current-fixups` file comes in real
handy. A quick look and we can determine whether there was a non-skipped
squash. We only need to make sure to keep it up to date with respect to
skipped fixup/squash commands. As a bonus, we can even avoid committing
unnecessarily, e.g. when there was only one fixup, and it failed, and
was skipped.
To fix only the bug where the final commit message was not cleaned up
properly, but without fixing the rest, would have been more complicated
than fixing it all in one go, hence this commit lumps together more than
a single concern.
For the same reason, this commit also adds a bit more to the existing
test case for the regression we just fixed.
The diff is best viewed with --color-moved.

This is not true in general, and certainly not true when compiled with
GETTEXT_POISON=TryToKillMe, as demonstrated by the regression test we
just introduced in t3418.
So let's decouple keeping track of the count from the (localized) commit
messages by introducing a new file called 'current-fixups' that keeps
track of the current fixup/squash chain. This file contains a bit more
than just the count (it contains a list of "fixup <commit>"/"squash
<commit>" lines). This is done on purpose, as it will come in handy for
a fix for the bug where `git rebase --skip` on a final fixup/squash will

The grafts feature was a convenient way to "stitch together" ancient
history to the fresh start of linux.git.
Its implementation is, however, not up to Git's standards, as there are
too many ways where it can lead to surprising and unwelcome behavior.
For example, when pushing from a repository with active grafts, it is
possible to miss commits that have been "grafted out", resulting in a
broken state on the other side.
Also, the grafts feature is limited to "rewriting" commits' list of
parents, it cannot replace anything else.
The much younger feature implemented as `git replace` set out to remedy
those limitations and dangerous bugs.
Seeing as `git replace` is pretty mature by now (since 4228e8bc98
(replace: add --graft option, 2014-07-19) it can perform the graft
file's duties), it is time to deprecate support for the graft file, and
to retire it eventually.

Currently 'git worktree add <path>' creates a new branch named after the
basename of the path by default. If a branch with that name already
exists, the command refuses to do anything, unless the '--force' option
is given.
However we can do a little better than that, and check the branch out if
it is not checked out anywhere else. This will help users who just want
to check an existing branch out into a new worktree, and save a few
keystrokes.
As the current behaviour is to simply 'die()' when a branch with the name
of the basename of the path already exists, there are no backwards
compatibility worries here.
We will still 'die()' if the branch is checked out in another worktree,
unless the --force flag is passed.

Currently 'git worktree add' produces output like the following:
Preparing ../foo (identifier foo)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
The '../foo' is the path where the worktree is created, which the user
has just given on the command line. The identifier is an internal
implementation detail, which is not particularly relevant for the user
and indeed isn't mentioned explicitly anywhere in the man page.
Instead of this message, print a message that gives the user a bit more
detail of what exactly 'git worktree' is doing. There are various dwim
modes which perform some magic under the hood, which should be
helpful to users. Just from the output of the command it is not always
visible to users what exactly has happened.
Help the users a bit more by modifying the "Preparing ..." message and
adding some additional information of what 'git worktree add' did under
the hood, while not displaying the identifier anymore.
Currently there are several different cases:
- 'git worktree add -b ...' or 'git worktree add <path>', both of
which create a new branch, either through the user explicitly
requesting it, or through 'git worktree add' implicitly creating
it. This will end up with the following output:
Preparing worktree (new branch '<branch>')
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add -B ...', which may either create a new branch if
the branch with the given name does not exist yet, or resets an
existing branch to the current HEAD, or the commit-ish given.
Depending on which action is taken, we'll end up with the following
output:
Preparing worktree (resetting branch '<branch>'; was at caa68db14)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
or:
Preparing worktree (new branch '<branch>')
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add --detach' or 'git worktree add <path>
<commit-ish>', both of which create a new worktree with a detached
HEAD, for which we will print the following output:
Preparing worktree (detached HEAD 26da330922)
HEAD is now at 26da330922 <title>
- 'git worktree add <path> <local-branch>', which checks out the
branch and prints the following output:
Preparing worktree (checking out '<local-branch>')
HEAD is now at 47007d5 <title>
Additionally currently the "Preparing ..." line is printed to stderr,
while the "HEAD is now at ..." line is printed to stdout by 'git reset
--hard', which is used internally by 'git worktree add'. Fix this
inconsistency by printing the "Preparing ..." message to stdout as
well. As "Preparing ..." is not an error, stdout also seems like the
more appropriate output stream.

In practice, that change should not matter, as it is 1) uncommon to

This is a simple function that will interpret a string as a whitespace
delimited list of values, and add those values into the array.
Note: this function does not (yet) offer to split by arbitrary delimiters,
or keep empty values in case of runs of whitespace, or de-quote Unix shell
style. All fo this functionality can be added later, when and if needed.

The --rebase-merges mode is probably not half as intuitive to use as
its inventor hopes, so let's document it some.

When running `git rebase --rebase-merges` non-interactively with an
ancestor of HEAD as <upstream> (or leaving the todo list unmodified),
we would ideally recreate the exact same commits as before the rebase.
However, if there are commits in the commit range <upstream>.. that do not
have <upstream> as direct ancestor (i.e. if `git log <upstream>..` would
show commits that are omitted by `git log --ancestry-path <upstream>..`),
this is currently not the case: we would turn them into commits that have
<upstream> as direct ancestor.
Let's illustrate that with a diagram:
C
/ \
A - B - E - F
\ /
D
Currently, after running `git rebase -i --rebase-merges B`, the new branch
structure would be (pay particular attention to the commit `D`):
--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
D'
This is not really preserving the branch topology from before! The
reason is that the commit `D` does not have `B` as ancestor, and
therefore it gets rebased onto `B`.
This is unintuitive behavior. Even worse, when recreating branch
structure, most use cases would appear to want cousins *not* to be
rebased onto the new base commit. For example, Git for Windows (the
heaviest user of the Git garden shears, which served as the blueprint
for --rebase-merges) frequently merges branches from `next` early, and
these branches certainly do *not* want to be rebased. In the example
above, the desired outcome would look like this:
--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
-- D' --
Let's introduce the term "cousins" for such commits ("D" in the
example), and let's not rebase them by default. For hypothetical
use cases where cousins *do* need to be rebased, `git rebase
--rebase=merges=rebase-cousins` needs to be used.

Similar to the `preserve` mode simply passing the `--preserve-merges`
option to the `rebase` command, the `merges` mode simply passes the
`--rebase-merges` option.
This will allow users to conveniently rebase non-trivial commit
topologies when pulling new commits, without flattening them.

The `git merge` command does not allow merging commits that are already
reachable from HEAD: `git merge HEAD^`, for example, will report that we
are already up to date and not change a thing.
In an interactive rebase, such a merge could occur previously, e.g. when
competing (or slightly modified) versions of a patch series were applied
upstream, and the user had to `git rebase --skip` all of the local
commits, and the topic branch becomes "empty" as a consequence.
Let's teach the todo command `merge` to behave the same as `git merge`.
Seeing as it requires some low-level trickery to create such merges with
Git's commands in the first place, we do not even have to bother to
introduce an option to force `merge` to create such merge commits.

In the previous patches, we implemented the basic functionality of the
`git rebase -i --rebase-merges` command, in particular the `merge`
command to create merge commits in the sequencer.
The interactive rebase is a lot more these days, though, than a simple
cherry-pick in a loop. For example, it calls the post-rewrite hook (if
any) after rebasing with a mapping of the old->new commits.
This patch implements the post-rewrite handling for the `merge` command
we just introduced. The other commands that were added recently (`label`
and `reset`) do not create new commits, therefore post-rewrite hooks do
not need to handle them.

This allows for rebases to be run in parallel in separate worktrees
(think: interrupted in the middle of one rebase, being asked to perform
a different rebase, adding a separate worktree just for that job).
