c25d98b2a7 merge-strategies: avoid implying that "-s theirs" exists
The description of `-Xours` merge option has a parenthetical note
that tells the readers that it is very different from `-s ours`,
which is correct, but the description of `-Xtheirs` that follows it
carelessly says "this is the opposite of `ours`", giving a false
impression that the readers also need to be warned that it is very
different from `-s theirs`, which in reality does not even exist.

Clarify it a bit to avoid misleading readers.

d3a44f637e Documentation/config: clarify the meaning of submodule.<name>.update
With more commands (that potentially change a submodule) paying attention
to submodules as well as the recent discussion[1] on
submodule.<name>.update, let's spell out that submodule.<name>.update
is strictly to be used for configuring the "submodule update" command
and not to be obeyed by other commands.

These other commands usually have a strict meaning of what they should
do (i.e. checkout, reset, rebase, merge) as well as have their name
overlapping with the modes possible for submodule.<name>.update.

[1] https://public-inbox.org/git/4283F0B0-BC1C-4ED1-8126-7E512D84484B@gmail.com/
    submodule.<name>.update was set to "none", triggering unexpected
    behavior as the submodule was thought to never be touched.
    However a newer version of Git taught 'git pull --rebase' to also
    populate and rebase submodules if they were active.
    The newer options such as submodule.active and command specific
    flags would not have triggered unexpected behavior.

c08fd6388c doc: put literal block delimiter around table
The git-read-tree manpage has a table that is meant to
be shown with its spacing exactly as it is in the source. We
mark it as a "literal paragraph" by indenting each line by
at least one space. This renders OK with asciidoc for both
the HTML and manpage versions.

But there are two problems when we render it with
asciidoctor.

The first is that some lines mix tabs and spaces.  Even if
asciidoctor is correctly configured for 8-space tabs, it
seems to handle this case differently, soaking up some of
the initial literal-paragraph spaces and mis-aligning the
table text.

The second problem is that the table uses blank lines to
group rows. But as blank lines separate paragraphs in
asciidoc, this actually means that each chunk of the table
is rendered in its own pre-formatted <div> block. This
happens even with vanilla asciidoc, but there's no visible
result because the literal paragraphs aren't styled in any
special way. But with asciidoctor (or at least the styles
used on git-scm.com), literal paragraphs are styled with a
different background.  This breaks the table into a visually
distracting sequence of chunks.

We can fix both by adding a literal-paragraph block
delimiter. That turns the whole table into a single block
(for both implementations) and causes asciidoctor to render
the indentation as it is in the source.

4d01a7fa65 pack-bitmap[-write]: use object_array_clear(), don't leak
Instead of setting the fields of rev->pending to 0/NULL, thereby leaking
memory, call `object_array_clear(&rev->pending)`.

In pack-bitmap.c, we make copies of those fields as `pending_nr` and
`pending_e`. We never update the aliases and the original fields never
change, so the aliases are not really needed and just make it harder
than necessary to understand the code. While we're here, remove the
aliases to make the code easier to follow.

7199203937 object_array: add and use object_array_pop()
In a couple of places, we pop objects off an object array `foo` by
decreasing `foo.nr`. We access `foo.nr` in many places, but most if not
all other times we do so read-only, e.g., as we iterate over the array.
But when we change `foo.nr` behind the array's back, it feels a bit
nasty and looks like it might leak memory.

Leaks happen if the popped element has an allocated `name` or `path`.
At the moment, that is not the case. Still, 1) the object array might
gain more fields that want to be freed, 2) a code path where we pop
might start using names or paths, 3) one of these code paths might be
copied to somewhere where we do, and 4) using a dedicated function for
popping is conceptually cleaner.

Introduce and use `object_array_pop()` instead. Release memory in the
new function. Document that popping an object leaves the associated
elements in limbo.

The converted places were identified by grepping for "\.nr\>" and
looking for "--".

Make the new function return NULL on an empty array. This is consistent
with `pop_commit()` and allows the following:

	while ((o = object_array_pop(&foo)) != NULL) {
		// do something
	}

But as noted above, we don't need to go out of our way to avoid reading
`foo.nr`. This is probably more readable:

	while (foo.nr) {
		... o = object_array_pop(&foo);
		// do something
	}

The name of `object_array_pop()` does not quite align with
`add_object_array()`. That is unfortunate. On the other hand, it matches
`object_array_clear()`. Arguably it's `add_...` that is the odd one out,
since it reads like it's used to "add" an "object array". For that
reason, side with `object_array_clear()`.

dcb572ab94 object_array: use object_array_clear(), not free()
Instead of freeing `foo.objects` for an object array `foo` (sometimes
conditionally), call `object_array_clear(&foo)`. This means we don't
poke as much into the implementation, which is already a good thing, but
also that we release the individual entries as well, thereby fixing at
least one memory-leak (in diff-lib.c).

If someone is holding on to a pointer to an element's `name` or `path`,
that is now a dangling pointer, i.e., we'd be turning an unpleasant
situation into an outright bug. To the best of my understanding no such
long-term pointers are being taken.

The way we handle `study` in builting/reflog.c still looks like it might
leak. That will be addressed in the next commit.

b2ccdf7fc1 leak_pending: use object_array_clear(), not free()
Setting `leak_pending = 1` tells `prepare_revision_walk()` not to
release the `pending` array, and makes that the caller's responsibility.
See 4a43d374f (revision: add leak_pending flag, 2011-10-01) and
353f5657a (bisect: use leak_pending flag, 2011-10-01).

Commit 1da1e07c8 (clean up name allocation in prepare_revision_walk,
2014-10-15) fixed a memory leak in `prepare_revision_walk()` by
switching from `free()` to `object_array_clear()`. However, where we use
the `leak_pending`-mechanism, we're still only calling `free()`.

Use `object_array_clear()` instead. Copy some helpful comments from
353f5657a to the other callers that we update to clarify the memory
responsibilities, and to highlight that the commits are not affected
when we clear the array -- it is indeed correct to both tidy up the
commit flags and clear the object array.

Document `leak_pending` in revision.h to help future users get this
right.

dd1055ed59 builtin/commit: fix memory leak in prepare_index()
Release `pathspec` and the string list `partial`.

When we clear the string list, make sure we do not free the `util`
pointers. That would result in double-freeing, since we set them up as
`item->util = item` in `list_paths()`.

Initialize the string list early, so that we can always release it. That
introduces some unnecessary overhead in various code paths, but means
there is one and only one way out of the function. If we ever accumulate
more things we need to free, it should be straightforward to do so.

1cf01a34ea consistently use "fallthrough" comments in switches
Gcc 7 adds -Wimplicit-fallthrough, which can warn when a
switch case falls through to the next case. The general idea
is that the compiler can't tell if this was intentional or
not, so you should annotate any intentional fall-throughs as
such, leaving it to complain about any unannotated ones.

There's a GNU __attribute__ which can be used for
annotation, but of course we'd have to #ifdef it away on
non-gcc compilers. Gcc will also recognize
specially-formatted comments, which matches our current
practice. Let's extend that practice to all of the
unannotated sites (which I did look over and verify that
they were behaving as intended).

Ideally in each case we'd actually give some reasons in the
comment about why we're falling through, or what we're
falling through to. And gcc does support that with
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=2, which relaxes the comment pattern
matching to anything that contains "fallthrough" (or a
variety of spelling variants). However, this isn't the
default for -Wimplicit-fallthrough, nor for -Wextra. In the
name of simplicity, it's probably better for us to support
the default level, which requires "fallthrough" to be the
only thing in the comment (modulo some window dressing like
"else" and some punctuation; see the gcc manual for the
complete set of patterns).

This patch suppresses all warnings due to
-Wimplicit-fallthrough. We might eventually want to add that
to the DEVELOPER Makefile knob, but we should probably wait
until gcc 7 is more widely adopted (since earlier versions
will complain about the unknown warning type).

d0e9983980 curl_trace(): eliminate switch fallthrough
Our trace handler is called by curl with a curl_infotype
variable to interpret its data field. For most types we
print the data and then break out of the switch. But for
CURLINFO_TEXT, we print data and then fall through to the
"default" case, which does the exact same thing (nothing!)
that breaking out of the switch would.

This is probably a leftover from an early iteration of the
patch where the code after the switch _did_ do something
interesting that was unique to the non-text case arms.
But in its current form, this fallthrough is merely
confusing (and causes gcc's -Wimplicit-fallthrough to
complain).

Let's make CURLINFO_TEXT like the other case arms, and push
the default arm to the end where it's more obviously a
catch-all.

8968b7b0a8 test-line-buffer: simplify command parsing
The handle_command() function matches an incoming command
string with a sequence of starts_with() checks. But it also
surrounds these with a switch on the first character of the
command, which lets us jump to the right block of
starts_with() without going linearly through the list.

However, each case arm of the switch falls through to the
one below it. This is pointless (we know that a command
starting with 'b' does not need to check any of the commands
in the 'c' block), and it makes gcc's -Wimplicit-fallthrough
complain.

We could solve this by adding a break at the end of each
block. However, this optimization isn't helping anything.
Even if it does make matching faster (which is debatable),
this is code that is run only in the test suite, and each
run receives at most two of these "commands". We should
favor simplicity and readability over micro-optimizing.

Instead, let's drop the switch statement completely and
replace it with an if/else cascade.

cc0ea7c9e5 cat-file: handle NULL object_context.path
Commit dc944b65f1 (get_sha1_with_context: dynamically
allocate oc->path, 2017-05-19) changed the rules that
callers must follow for seeing if we parsed a path in the
object name. The rules switched from "check if the oc.path
buffer is empty" to "check if the oc.path pointer is NULL".
But that commit forgot to update some sites in
cat_one_file(), meaning we might dereference a NULL pointer.

You can see this by making a path-aware request like
--textconv without specifying --path, and giving an object
name that doesn't have a path in it. Like:

  git cat-file --textconv HEAD

which will reliably segfault.

exiting, but this makes it harder to leak detection tools to avoid
reporting false positives.  Plug many existing leaks and introduce
a mechanism for developers to mark that the region of memory
pointed by a pointer is not lost/leaking to help these tools.

b3e8ca89cf fast-export: do not copy from modified file
When run with the "-C" option, fast-export writes 'C' commands in its
output whenever the internal diff mechanism detects a file copy,
indicating that fast-import should copy the given existing file to the
given new filename. However, the diff mechanism works against the
prior version of the file, whereas fast-import uses whatever is current.
This causes issues when a commit both modifies a file and uses it as the
source for a copy.

Therefore, teach fast-export to refrain from writing 'C' when it has
already written a modification command for a file.

An existing test in t9350-fast-export is also fixed in this patch. The
existing line "C file6 file7" copies the wrong version of file6, but it
has coincidentally worked because file7 was subsequently overridden.

7fa3c2ad6d revision: replace "struct cmdline_pathspec" with argv_array
We assemble an array of strings in a custom struct,
NULL-terminate the result, and then pass it to
parse_pathspec().

But then we never free the array or the individual strings
(nor can we do the latter, as they are heap-allocated when
they come from stdin but not when they come from the
passed-in argv).

Let's swap this out for an argv_array. It does the same
thing with fewer lines of code, and it's safe to call
argv_array_clear() at the end to avoid a memory leak.

1a6d46895d test-lint: echo -e (or -E) is not portable
Some implementations of `echo` support the '-e' option to enable
backslash interpretation of the following string.
As an addition, they support '-E' to turn it off.

However, none of these are portable, POSIX doesn't even mention them,
and many implementations don't support them.

A check for '-n' is already done in check-non-portable-shell.pl,
extend it to cover '-n', '-e' or '-E'.

5de3de329a git-compat-util: make UNLEAK less error-prone
Commit 0e5bba5 ("add UNLEAK annotation for reducing leak false
positives", 2017-09-08) introduced an UNLEAK macro to be used as
"UNLEAK(var);", but its existing definitions leave semicolons that act
as empty statements, which will lead to syntax errors, e.g.

	if (condition)
		UNLEAK(var);
	else
		something_else(var);

would be broken with two statements between if (condition) and else.
Lose the excess semicolon from the end of the macro replacement text.

ac7da78ede for_each_string_list_item: avoid undefined behavior for empty list
If you pass a newly initialized or newly cleared `string_list` to
`for_each_string_list_item()`, then the latter does

    for (
            item = (list)->items; /* NULL */
            item < (list)->items + (list)->nr; /* NULL + 0 */
            ++item)

Even though this probably works almost everywhere, it is undefined
behavior, and it could plausibly cause highly-optimizing compilers to
misbehave.  C99 section 6.5.6 paragraph 8 explains:

    If both the pointer operand and the result point to elements
    of the same array object, or one past the last element of the
    array object, the evaluation shall not produce an overflow;
    otherwise, the behavior is undefined.

and (6.3.2.3.3) a null pointer does not point to anything.

Guard the loop with a NULL check to make the intent crystal clear to
even the most pedantic compiler.  A suitably clever compiler could let
the NULL check only run in the first iteration, but regardless, this
overhead is likely to be dwarfed by the work to be done on each item.

This problem was noticed by Coverity.

[jn: using a NULL check instead of a placeholder empty list;
 fleshed out the commit message based on mailing list discussion]
