22c5b13636 rebase -i: handle fixup! fixup! in --autosquash
In rebase -i --autosquash, ignore all "fixup! " or "squash! " after the
first.  This supports the case when a git commit --fixup/--squash referred
to an earlier fixup/squash instead of the original commit (whether
intentionally, as when the user expressly meant to note that the commit
fixes an earlier fixup; or inadvertently, as when the user meant to refer to
the original commit with :/msg; or out of laziness, as when the user could
remember how to refer to the fixup but not the original).

In the todo list, the full commit message is preserved, in case it provides
useful cues to the user.  A test helper set_cat_todo_editor is introduced to
check this.

The fact that the git:// transport does no authentication is easily

ecaee8050c pretty: --format output should honor logOutputEncoding
One can set an alias
	$ git config [--global] alias.lg "log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset
	-%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cd) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset'
	--abbrev-commit --date=local"

to see the log as a pretty tree (like *gitk* but in a terminal).

However, log messages written in an encoding i18n.commitEncoding which differs
from terminal encoding are shown corrupted even when i18n.logOutputEncoding
and terminal encoding are the same (e.g. log messages committed on a Cygwin box
with Windows-1251 encoding seen on a Linux box with a UTF-8 encoding and vice versa).

To simplify an example we can say the following two commands are expected
to give the same output to a terminal:

	$ git log --oneline --no-color
	$ git log --pretty=format:'%h %s'

However, the former pays attention to i18n.logOutputEncoding
configuration, while the latter does not when it formats "%s".

The same corruption is true for
	$ git diff --submodule=log
and
	$ git rev-list --pretty=format:%s HEAD
and
	$ git reset --hard

This patch makes pretty --format honor logOutputEncoding when it formats
log message.

abd4284bc6 test: run testcases with POSIX absolute paths on Windows
Some test cases are skipped on Windows by marking with POSIX prereq.
This is because arguments look like absolute paths (such as /a/b)
for regular Windows programs (*.exe executables, no bash scripts)
are changed to Windows paths (like C:/msysgit/a/b).

There is no cygpath nor equivalent on msysGit, but it is easy to
write one. New subcommand "mingw_path" is added in test-path-utils,
so that we can get the expected absolute paths on Windows. E.g.

    COMMAND LINE                        Linux output  Windows output
    ==================================  ============  ===============
    test-path-utils mingw_path /        /             C:/msysgit
    test-path-utils mingw_path /a/b/    /a/b/         C:/msysgit/a/b/

With this utility, most skipped test cases in t0060 can be turned on
to be tested correctly on Windows.

from path.c, parameters (such as len and prefix_len) are redundant
in function write_name() and write_name_quoted_relative().  The

properly NUL terminated and the length they give are the length of
the string (or -1 that asks the length to be counted by the callee).

39598f9983 quote_path_relative(): remove redundant parameter
quote_path_relative() used to take a counted string as its parameter
(the string to be quoted).  With an earlier change, it now uses
relative_path() that does not take a counted string, and we have
been passing only the pointer to the string since then.

Remove the length parameter from quote_path_relative() to show that
this parameter was redundant.  All the changed lines show that the
caller passed either -1 (to ask the function run strlen() on the
string), or the length of the string, so the earlier conversion was
safe.

All the callers of quote_path_relative() that used to take counted string
have been audited to make sure that they are passing length of the actual
string (or -1 to ask the callee run strlen())

    /x/y      /a/b/      ../../x/y                ../../x/y
    a/b/c/    a/b/       c/                       c/
    a/        a/b/       ../                      ../
    x/y       a/b/       ../../x/y                ../../x/y
    /a/b      (empty)    /a/b                     /a/b
    /a/b      (null)     /a/b                     /a/b
    a/b       (empty)    a/b                      a/b
    a/b       (null)     a/b                      a/b

But if both of the path and the prefix are the same, or the returned
relative path should be the current directory, the outputs of both
functions are different. Function relative_path returns "./", while
function path_relative returns empty string.

    path      prefix     output of path_relative  output of relative_path
    ========  =========  =======================  =======================
    /a/b/     /a/b/      (empty)                  ./
    a/b/      a/b/       (empty)                  ./
    (empty)   (null)     (empty)                  ./
    (empty)   (empty)    (empty)                  ./

But the callers of path_relative can handle such cases, or never
encounter this issue at all, because:

 * In function quote_path_relative, if the output of path_relative is
   empty, append "./" to it, like:

       if (!out->len)
           strbuf_addstr(out, "./");

 * Another caller is write_name_quoted_relative, which is only used
   by builtin/ls-files.c. git-ls-files only show files, so path of
   files will never be identical with the prefix of a directory.

The following differences show that path_relative does not handle
extra slashes properly:

    path      prefix     output of path_relative  output of relative_path
    ========  =========  =======================  =======================
    /a//b//c/ //a/b//    ../../../../a//b//c/     c/
    a/b//c    a//b       ../b//c                  c

And if prefix has no trailing slash, path_relative does not work
properly either.  But since prefix always has a trailing slash, it's
not a problem.

    path      prefix     output of path_relative  output of relative_path
    ========  =========  =======================  =======================
    /a/b/c/   /a/b       b/c/                     c/
    /a/b      /a/b       b                        ./
    /a/b/     /a/b       b/                       ./
    /a        /a/b/      ../../a                  ../
    a/b/c/    a/b        b/c/                     c/
    a/b/      a/b        b/                       ./
    a         a/b        ../a                     ../
    x/y       a/b/       ../x/y                   ../../x/y
    a/c       a/b        c                        ../c
    /a/       /a/b       (empty)                  ../
    (empty)   /a/b       ../../                   ./

One tricky part in this conversion is write_name() function in
ls-files.c.  It takes a counted string, <name, len>, that is to be
made relative to <prefix, prefix_len> and then quoted.  Because
write_name_quoted_relative() still takes these two parameters as
counted string, but ignores the count and treat these two as
NUL-terminated strings, this conversion needs to be audited for its
callers:

 - For <name, len>, all three callers of write_name() passes a
   NUL-terminated string and its true length, so this patch makes
   "len" unused.

 - For <prefix, prefix_len>, prefix could be a string that is longer
   than empty while prefix_len could be 0 when "--full-name" option
   is used.  This is fixed by checking prefix_len in write_name()
   and calling write_name_quoted_relative() with NULL when
   prefix_len is set to 0.  Again, this makes "prefix_len" given to
   write_name_quoted_relative() unused, without introducing a bug.

e02ca72f70 path.c: refactor relative_path(), not only strip prefix
Original design of relative_path() is simple, just strip the prefix
(*base) from the absolute path (*abs).

In most cases, we need a real relative path, such as: ../foo,
../../bar.  That's why there is another reimplementation
(path_relative()) in quote.c.

Borrow some codes from path_relative() in quote.c to refactor
relative_path() in path.c, so that it could return real relative
path, and user can reuse this function without reimplementing
his/her own.  The function path_relative() in quote.c will be
substituted, and I would use the new relative_path() function when
implementing the interactive git-clean later.

Different results for relative_path() before and after this refactor:

    abs path  base path  relative (original)  relative (refactor)
    ========  =========  ===================  ===================
    /a/b      /a/b       .                    ./
    /a/b/     /a/b       .                    ./
    /a        /a/b/      /a                   ../
    /         /a/b/      /                    ../../
    /a/c      /a/b/      /a/c                 ../c
    /x/y      /a/b/      /x/y                 ../../x/y

    a/b/      a/b/       .                    ./
    a/b/      a/b        .                    ./
    a         a/b        a                    ../
    x/y       a/b/       x/y                  ../../x/y
    a/c       a/b        a/c                  ../c

    (empty)   (null)     (empty)              ./
    (empty)   (empty)    (empty)              ./
    (empty)   /a/b       (empty)              ./
    (null)    (null)     (null)               ./
    (null)    (empty)    (null)               ./
    (null)    /a/b       (segfault)           ./

You may notice that return value "." has been changed to "./".
It is because:

 * Function quote_path_relative() in quote.c will show the relative
   path as "./" if abs(in) and base(prefix) are the same.

 * Function relative_path() is called only once (in setup.c), and
   it will be OK for the return value as "./" instead of ".".

203439b284 test: add test cases for relative_path
Add subcommand "relative_path" in test-path-utils, and add test cases
in t0060.

Johannes tested an earlier version of this patch on Windows, and
found that some relative_path tests should be skipped on
Windows. This is because the bash on Windows rewrites arguments of
regular Windows programs, such as git and the test helpers, if the
arguments look like absolute POSIX paths. As a consequence, the
actual tests performed are not what the tests scripts expect.

The tests that need *not* be skipped are those where the two paths passed
to 'test-path-utils relative_path' have the same prefix and the result is
expected to be a relative path. This is because the rewriting changes
"/a/b" to "D:/Src/MSysGit/a/b", and when both inputs are extended the same
way, this just cancels out in the relative path computation.

5e62cc14c3 column doc: rewrite documentation for column.ui
The configuration option column.ui is very poorly documented, and it is
unclear what the defaults are, and what option can be combined with
what.  Rewrite it by splitting up the options into three sections
clearly showing how COL_ENABLED, COL_LAYOUT_MASK, and COL_DENSE work.
