a45b5f0552 connect: annotate refs with their symref information in get_remote_head()
By doing this, clients of upload-pack can now reliably tell what ref
a symbolic ref points at; the updated test in t5505 used to expect
failure due to the ambiguity and made sure we give diagnostics, but
we no longer need to be so pessimistic. Make sure we correctly learn
which branch HEAD points at from the other side instead.

a4dfee0680 t5505: fix "set-head --auto with ambiguous HEAD" test
When two or more branches point at the same commit and HEAD is
pointing at one of them, without the symref extension, there is no
way to remotely tell which one of these branches HEAD points at.
The test in question attempts to make sure that this situation is
diagnosed and results in a failure.

However, even if there _were_ a way to reliably tell which branch
the HEAD points at, "set-head --auto" would fail if there is no
remote tracking branch.  Make sure that this test does not fail
for that "wrong" reason.

9b9439afd8 t/t5505-remote: modernize style
Modernize the style of all tests throughout the file:

 - Remove spurious blank lines.

 - Indent the test body.

 - Make sure that all lines end with &&, to make it easier to spot
   breaks in the chain.

 - When executing something in a subshell, put the parenthesis on
   separate lines and indent the body.  Also make sure that the
   first statement in the subshell is a 'cd'.

 - When redirecting input or output, do not use SP between
   redirection operator and the target filename.

 - Use the <<-\EOF and <<-EOF forms of heredoc, not <<EOF, when the
   command is indented and the heredoc text itself does not have to
   have a leading tab.

abf5f8723c remote: add a test for extra arguments, according to docs
This adds one test or comment for each subcommand of git-remote
according to its current documentation.  All but 'set-branches' and
'update' are listed as taking only a fixed number of arguments; for
those we can write a test with one more (bogus) argument, and see if
the command notices that.

They fail on several counts: 'add' does not check for extra arguments,
and 'show' and 'prune' actually iterate over remotes (i.e., take any
number of args).  We'll fix them in the next two patches.

The -f machinery is only there to make the tests readable while still
ensuring they pass as a whole, and will be removed in the final patch.

b52d00aede remote: only update remote-tracking branch if updating refspec
'git remote rename' will only update the remote's fetch refspec if it
looks like a default one. If the remote has no default fetch refspec,
as in

[remote "origin"]
    url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/upstream/*

we would not update the fetch refspec and even if there is a ref
called "refs/remotes/origin/master", we should not rename it, since it
was not created by fetching from the remote.

60e5eee0f1 remote: "rename o foo" should not rename ref "origin/bar"
When renaming a remote called 'o' using 'git remote rename o foo', git
should also rename any remote-tracking branches for the remote. This
does happen, but any remote-tracking branches starting with
'refs/remotes/o', such as 'refs/remotes/origin/bar', will also be
renamed (to 'refs/remotes/foorigin/bar' in this case).

Fix it by simply matching one more character, up to the slash
following the remote name.

28f555f635 remote: write correct fetch spec when renaming remote 'remote'
When renaming a remote whose name is contained in a configured fetch
refspec for that remote, we currently replace the first occurrence of
the remote name in the refspec. This is correct in most cases, but
breaks if the remote name occurs in the fetch refspec before the
expected place. For example, we currently change

[remote "remote"]
	url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/remote/*

into

[remote "origin"]
	url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/origins/remote/*

Reduce the risk of changing incorrect sections of the refspec by
matching the entire ":refs/remotes/<name>/" instead of just "<name>".

3eafdc961f remote: allow "-t" with fetch mirrors
Commit 13fc2c1 (remote: disallow some nonsensical option
combinations, 2011-03-30) made it impossible to use "remote
add -t foo --mirror". The argument was that specifying
specific branches is useless because:

  1. Push mirrors do not want a refspec at all.

  2. The point of fetch mirroring is to use a broad refspec
     like "refs/*", but using "-t" overrides that.

Point (1) is valid; "-t" with push mirrors is useless. But
point (2) ignored another side effect of using --mirror: it
fetches the refs directly into the refs/ namespace as they
are found upstream, instead of placing them in a
separate-remote layout.

So 13fc2c1 was overly constrictive, and disallowed
reasonable specific-branch mirroring, like:

  git remote add -t heads/foo -t heads/bar --mirror=fetch

which makes the local "foo" and "bar" branches direct
mirrors of the remote, but does not fetch anything else.

This patch restores the original behavior, but only for
fetch mirrors.

a9f5a3558d remote: separate the concept of push and fetch mirrors
git-remote currently has one option, "--mirror", which sets
up mirror configuration which can be used for either
fetching or pushing. It looks like this:

  [remote "mirror"]
    url = wherever
    fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
    mirror = true

However, a remote like this can be dangerous and confusing.
Specifically:

  1. If you issue the wrong command, it can be devastating.
     You are not likely to "push" when you meant to "fetch",
     but "git remote update" will try to fetch it, even if
     you intended the remote only for pushing. In either
     case, the results can be quite destructive. An
     unintended push will overwrite or delete remote refs,
     and an unintended fetch can overwrite local branches.

  2. The tracking setup code can produce confusing results.
     The fetch refspec above means that "git checkout -b new
     master" will consider refs/heads/master to come from
     the remote "mirror", even if you only ever intend to
     push to the mirror. It will set up the "new" branch to
     track mirror's refs/heads/master.

  3. The push code tries to opportunistically update
     tracking branches. If you "git push mirror foo:bar",
     it will see that we are updating mirror's
     refs/heads/bar, which corresponds to our local
     refs/heads/bar, and will update our local branch.

To solve this, we split the concept into "push mirrors" and
"fetch mirrors". Push mirrors set only remote.*.mirror,
solving (2) and (3), and making an accidental fetch write
only into FETCH_HEAD. Fetch mirrors set only the fetch
refspec, meaning an accidental push will not force-overwrite
or delete refs on the remote end.

The new syntax is "--mirror=<fetch|push>". For
compatibility, we keep "--mirror" as-is, setting up both
types simultaneously.

(Just like we did for documentation already)

In the process, we change "non-remote branch" to "branch outside the
refs/remotes/ hierarchy" to avoid the ugly "non-remote-tracking branch".
The new formulation actually corresponds to how the code detects this
case (i.e. prefixcmp(refname, "refs/remotes")).

Also, we use 'remote-tracking branch' in generated merge messages (by
merge an fmt-merge-msg).

This test is supposed to check that git-remote correctly refuses to delete
all URLS for the specified remote which match the '.*' regular expression.
Since the '*' was not protected, it was interpreted by the shell as a file
glob and expanded before being passed to git-remote.  The call to
git-remote still exited non-zero in this case, and the overall test still
passed, but it exited non-zero because git-remote was passed the incorrect
number of arguments, not for the reason it was supposed to fail.

Correct the test by escaping the '*'.

e01de1c912 refs: ref entry with NULL sha1 is can be a dangling symref
Brandon Casey noticed that t5505 had accidentally broken its && chain,
hiding inconsistency between the code that writes the warning to the
standard output and the test that expects to see the warning on the
standard error, which was introduced by f8948e2 (remote prune: warn
dangling symrefs, 2009-02-08).

It turns out that the issue is deeper than that.  After f8948e2, a symref
that is dangling is marked with a NULL sha1, and the idea of using NULL
sha1 to mean a deleted ref was scrapped, but somehow a follow-up eafb452
(do_one_ref(): null_sha1 check is not about broken ref, 2009-07-22)
incorrectly reorganized do_one_ref(), still thinking NULL sha1 is never
used in the code.

Fix this by:

 - adopt Brandon's fix to t5505 test;

 - introduce REF_BROKEN flag to mark a ref that fails to resolve (dangling
   symref);

 - move the check for broken ref back inside the "if we are skipping
   dangling refs" code block.

remotes.default has been set in the config file:

fatal: 'default' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

The problem is that the --multiple option is not passed to

line. Fix the problem by always passing the --multiple
option to "git fetch" (which actually simplifies the code).

857f8c30d7 builtin-remote: Show push urls as well
Teach builtin remote to show push urls also when asked to
"show" a specific remote.

This improves upon the standard display mode: multiple specified "url"s
mean that the first one is for fetching, all are used for pushing. We
make this clearer now by displaying the first one prefixed with "Fetch
URL", and all "url"s (or, if present, all "pushurl"s) prefixed with
"Push  URL".

Example with "one" having one url, "two" two urls, "three" one url and
one pushurl (URL part only):

* remote one
  Fetch URL: hostone.com:/somepath/repoone.git
  Push  URL: hostone.com:/somepath/repoone.git
* remote two
  Fetch URL: hosttwo.com:/somepath/repotwo.git
  Push  URL: hosttwo.com:/somepath/repotwo.git
  Push  URL: hosttwobackup.com:/somewheresafe/repotwo.git
* remote three
  Fetch URL: http://hostthree.com/otherpath/repothree.git
  Push  URL: hostthree.com:/pathforpushes/repothree.git

Also, adjust t5505 accordingly and make it test for the new output.

e5dcbfd9ab builtin-remote: new show output style for push refspecs
The existing output of "git remote show <remote>" with respect to push
ref specs is basically just to show the raw refspec. This patch teaches
the command to interpret the refspecs and show how each branch will be
pushed to the destination. The output gives the user an idea of what
"git push" should do if it is run w/o any arguments.

Example new output:

1a. Typical output with no push refspec (i.e. matching branches only)

$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
  [...]
  Local refs configured for 'git push':
    master pushes to master (up to date)

1b. Same as above, w/o querying the remote:

$ git remote show origin -n
* remote origin
  [...]
  Local ref configured for 'git push' (status not queried):
    (matching) pushes to (matching)

2a. With a forcing refspec (+), and a new topic
    (something like push = refs/heads/*:refs/heads/*):

$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
  [...]
  Local refs configured for 'git push':
    master     pushes to master    (fast forwardable)
    new-topic  pushes to new-topic (create)
    next       pushes to next      (local out of date)
    pu         forces to pu        (up to date)

2b. Same as above, w/o querying the remote

$ git remote show origin -n
* remote origin
  [...]
  Local refs configured for 'git push' (status not queried):
    master     pushes to master
    new-topic  pushes to new-topic
    next       pushes to next
    pu         forces to pu

3. With a remote configured as a mirror:

* remote backup
  [...]
  Local refs will be mirrored by 'git push'

7ecbbf877c builtin-remote: new show output style
The existing output of "git remote show <remote>" is too verbose for the
information it provides. This patch teaches it to provide more
information in less space.

The output for push refspecs is addressed in the next patch.

Before the patch:

$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
  URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
  HEAD branch: master
  Remote branch merged with 'git pull' while on branch master
    master
  Remote branch merged with 'git pull' while on branch next
    next
  Remote branches merged with 'git pull' while on branch octopus
    foo bar baz frotz
  New remote branch (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
    html
  Stale tracking branch (use 'git remote prune')
    bogus
  Tracked remote branches
    maint
    man
    master
    next
    pu
    todo

After this patch:

$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
  URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
  HEAD branch: master
  Remote branches:
    bogus  stale (use 'git remote prune' to remove)
    html   new (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
    maint  tracked
    man    tracked
    master tracked
    next   tracked
    pu     tracked
    todo   tracked
  Local branches configured for 'git pull':
    master  rebases onto remote master
    next    rebases onto remote next
    octopus  merges with remote foo
                and with remote bar
                and with remote baz
                and with remote frotz

$ git remote show origin -n
* remote origin
  URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
  HEAD branch: (not queried)
  Remote branches: (status not queried)
    bogus
    maint
    man
    master
    next
    pu
    todo
  Local branches configured for 'git pull':
    master  rebases onto remote master
    next    rebases onto remote next
    octopus  merges with remote foo
                and with remote bar
                and with remote baz
                and with remote frotz

e61e0cc6b7 builtin-remote: teach show to display remote HEAD
This is in preparation for teaching remote how to set
refs/remotes/<remote>/HEAD to match what HEAD is set to at <remote>, but
is useful in its own right.

3bd925636c builtin-remote: fix two inconsistencies in the output of "show <remote>"
Remote and stale branches are emitted in alphabetical order, but new and
tracked branches are not. So sort the latter to be consistent with the
former. This also lets us use more efficient string_list_has_string()
instead of unsorted_string_list_has_string().

"show <remote>" prunes symrefs, but "show <remote> -n" does not. Fix the
latter to match the former.

057e71384a Warn use of "origin" when remotes/origin/HEAD is dangling
The previous one squelched the diagnositic message we used to issue every
time we enumerated the refs and noticed a dangling ref.  This adds the
warning back to the place where the user actually attempts to use it.

f8948e2fbc remote prune: warn dangling symrefs
If you prune from the remote "frotz" that deleted the ref your tracking
branch remotes/frotz/HEAD points at, the symbolic ref will become
dangling.  We used to detect this as an error condition and issued a
message every time refs are enumerated.

This stops the error message, but moves the warning to "remote prune".
