d76650b8d1 interpret-trailers: honor the cut line
If a commit message is edited with the "verbose" option, the buffer
will have a cut line and diff after the log message, like so:

    my subject

    # ------------------------ >8 ------------------------
    # Do not touch the line above.
    # Everything below will be removed.
    diff --git a/foo.txt b/foo.txt
    index 5716ca5..7601807 100644
    --- a/foo.txt
    +++ b/foo.txt
    @@ -1 +1 @@
    -bar
    +baz

"git interpret-trailers" is unaware of the cut line, and assumes the
trailer block would be at the end of the whole thing.  This can easily
be seen with:

     $ GIT_EDITOR='git interpret-trailers --in-place --trailer Acked-by:me' \
       git commit --amend -v

Teach "git interpret-trailers" to notice the cut-line and ignore the
remainder of the input when looking for a place to add new trailer
block.  This makes it consistent with how "git commit -v -s" inserts a
new Signed-off-by: line.

This can be done by the same logic as the existing helper function,
wt_status_truncate_message_at_cut_line(), uses, but it wants the caller
to pass a strbuf to it.  Because the function ignore_non_trailer() used
by the command takes a <pointer, length> pair, not a strbuf, steal the
logic from wt_status_truncate_message_at_cut_line() to create a new
wt_status_locate_end() helper function that takes <pointer, length>
pair, and make ignore_non_trailer() call it to help "interpret-trailers".

Since there is only one caller of wt_status_truncate_message_at_cut_line()
in cmd_commit(), rewrite it to call wt_status_locate_end() helper instead
and remove the old helper that no longer has any caller.

In the next patch we need the ability to expand '~' to

so.

4a5281917b builtin/commit.c: switch to strbuf, instead of snprintf()
Switch to dynamic allocation with strbuf, so we can avoid dealing
with magic numbers in the code and reduce the cognitive burden from
the programmers.  The original code is correct, but programmers no
longer have to count bytes needed for static allocation to know that.

As a side effect of this change, we also reduce the snprintf()
calls, that may silently truncate results if the programmer is not
careful.

b3e83cc752 hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update()
Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to
prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to
die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.

This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile
API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to
LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().

Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop
translating.  Callers other than the ones that are replaced with
this change pass '0' to the function; no behaviour change is
intended with this patch.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
---

Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:

 - diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
   opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
   just before the program exits and nobody should care.

 - builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
   builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
   sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
   updates and they are OK.

 - builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
   but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
   entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
   issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock.  We do diagnose
   and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.

 - wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY.  It asks
   silence, does not check the returned value.  Compare with
   callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
   is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.

650360210a Merge branch 'nd/ita-empty-commit'
When new paths were added by "git add -N" to the index, it was
enough to circumvent the check by "git commit" to refrain from

"Changes not staged for commit" section.

ita entries are dropped at tree generation phase. If the entire index
consists of just ita entries, the result would be a a commit with no

test "!!active_nr" is not sufficient to catch this.

018ec3c820 commit: fix empty commit creation when there's no changes but ita entries
If i-t-a entries are present and there is no change between the index
and HEAD i-t-a entries, index_differs_from() still returns "dirty, new
entries" (aka, the resulting commit is not empty), but cache-tree will
skip i-t-a entries and produce the exact same tree of current
commit.

index_differs_from() is supposed to catch this so we can abort
git-commit (unless --no-empty is specified). Update it to optionally
ignore i-t-a entries when doing a diff between the index and HEAD so
that it would return "no change" in this case and abort commit.

610d55af0f add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff
machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index
differs from the version on disk.

As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index,
which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of
the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

Collect extra per-file data for porcelain V2 format.

The output of `git status --porcelain` leaves out many
details about the current status that clients might like
to have.  This can force them to be less efficient as they
may need to launch secondary commands (and try to match
the logic within git) to accumulate this extra information.
For example, a GUI IDE might want the file mode to display
the correct icon for a changed item (without having to stat
it afterwards).

Consistent with the pretty-printing machinery, we skip leading blank
lines (if any) of existing commit messages.

While Git itself only produces commit objects with a single empty line
between commit header and commit message, it is legal to have more than
one blank line (i.e. lines containing only white space, or no
characters) at the beginning of the commit message, and the
pretty-printing code already handles that.

4e55ed32db add: add --chmod=+x / --chmod=-x options
The executable bit will not be detected (and therefore will not be
set) for paths in a repository with `core.filemode` set to false,
though the users may still wish to add files as executable for
compatibility with other users who _do_ have `core.filemode`
functionality.  For example, Windows users adding shell scripts may
wish to add them as executable for compatibility with users on
non-Windows.

Although this can be done with a plumbing command
(`git update-index --add --chmod=+x foo`), teaching the `git-add`
command allows users to set a file executable with a command that
they're already familiar with.

0709261a83 Merge branch 'ad/commit-have-m-option'
"git commit" misbehaved in a few minor ways when an empty message
is given via -m '', all of which has been corrected.

* ad/commit-have-m-option:
  commit: do not ignore an empty message given by -m ''
  commit: --amend -m '' silently fails to wipe message

ea7fefbd7b Merge branch 'ss/commit-squash-msg' into maint
When "git merge --squash" stopped due to conflict, the concluding
"git commit" failed to read in the SQUASH_MSG that shows the log
messages from all the squashed commits.

* ss/commit-squash-msg:
  commit: do not lose SQUASH_MSG contents

27014cbc04 commit: do not ignore an empty message given by -m ''
When f9568530 (builtin-commit: resurrect behavior for multiple -m
options, 2007-11-11) converted a "char *message" to "struct strbuf
message" to hold the messages given with the "-m" option, it
incorrectly changed the checks "did we get a message with the -m
option?" to "is message.len 0?".  Later, we noticed one breakage
from this change and corrected it with 25206778 (commit: don't start
editor if empty message is given with -m, 2013-05-25).

However, "we got a message with -m, even though an empty one, so we
shouldn't be launching an editor" was not the only breakage.

 * "git commit --amend -m '' --allow-empty", even though it looks
   strange, is a valid request to amend the commit to have no
   message at all.  Due to the misdetection of the presence of -m on
   the command line, we ended up keeping the log messsage from the
   original commit.

 * "git commit -m "$msg" -F file" should be rejected whether $msg is
   an empty string or not, but due to the same bug, was not rejected
   when $msg is empty.

 * "git -c template=file -m "$msg"" should ignore the template even
   when $msg is empty, but it didn't and instead used the contents
   from the template file.

Correct these by checking have_option_m, which the earlier 25206778
introduced to fix the same bug.

b64c1e0718 commit: do not lose SQUASH_MSG contents
When concluding a conflicted "git merge --squash", the command
failed to read SQUASH_MSG that was prepared by "git merge", and
showed only the "# Conflicts:" list of conflicted paths.

Place the contents from SQUASH_MSG at the beginning, just like we
show the commit log skeleton first when concluding a normal merge,
and then show the "# Conflicts:" list, to help the user write the
log message for the resulting commit.

5404c116aa diff: activate diff.renames by default
Rename detection is a very convenient feature, and new users shouldn't
have to dig in the documentation to benefit from it.

Potential objections to activating rename detection are that it
sometimes fail, and it is sometimes slow. But rename detection is
already activated by default in several cases like "git status" and "git
merge", so activating diff.renames does not fundamentally change the
situation. When the rename detection fails, it now fails consistently
between "git diff" and "git status".

This setting does not affect plumbing commands, hence well-written
scripts will not be affected.

7a63c9e3da Merge branch 'js/fopen-harder'
Some codepaths used fopen(3) when opening a fixed path in $GIT_DIR
(e.g. COMMIT_EDITMSG) that is meant to be left after the command is
done.  This however did not work well if the repository is set to
be shared with core.sharedRepository and the umask of the previous
user is tighter.  They have been made to work better by calling
unlink(2) and retrying after fopen(3) fails with EPERM.

* js/fopen-harder:
  Handle more file writes correctly in shared repos
  commit: allow editing the commit message even in shared repos
