47e329ef7c rev-parse: clarify documentation of $name@{upstream} syntax
"git rev-parse" interprets string in string@{upstream} as a name of
a branch not a ref. For example, refs/heads/master@{upstream} looks
for an upstream branch that is merged by git-pull to ref
refs/heads/refs/heads/master not to refs/heads/master.

However the documentation could mislead a user to believe that the
string is interpreted as ref.

b2981d0622 sha1_name: pass object name length to diagnose_invalid_sha1_path()
The only caller of diagnose_invalid_sha1_path() extracts a substring from
an object name by creating a NUL-terminated copy of the interesting part.
Add a length parameter to the function and thus avoid the need for an
allocation, thereby simplifying the code.

ce4c4d4ec3 pull: Apply -q and -v options to rebase mode as well
git pull passed -q and -v only to git merge, but they can be useful for
git rebase as well, so pass them there, too.

In particular, using -q shuts up the "Already up-to-date." message.
Especially, a new test script runs the same "pull --rebase" twice to
make sure both cases are quiet, when it has something to fetch and
when it is already up to date.

f59de5d1ff upload-pack: load non-tip "want" objects from disk
It is a long-time security feature that upload-pack will not
serve any "want" lines that do not correspond to the tip of
one of our refs. Traditionally, this was enforced by
checking the objects in the in-memory hash; they should have
been loaded and received the OUR_REF flag during the
advertisement.

The stateless-rpc mode, however, has a race condition here:
one process advertises, and another receives the want lines,
so the refs may have changed in the interim.  To address
this, commit 051e400 added a new verification mode; if the
object is not OUR_REF, we set a "has_non_tip" flag, and then
later verify that the requested objects are reachable from
our current tips.

However, we still die immediately when the object is not in
our in-memory hash, and at this point we should only have
loaded our tip objects. So the check_non_tip code path does
not ever actually trigger, as any non-tip objects would
have already caused us to die.

We can fix that by using parse_object instead of
lookup_object, which will load the object from disk if it
has not already been loaded.

We still need to check that parse_object does not return
NULL, though, as it is possible we do not have the object
at all. A more appropriate error message would be "no such
object" rather than "not our ref"; however, we do not want
to leak information about what objects are or are not in
the object database, so we continue to use the same "not
our ref" message that would be produced by an unreachable
object.

06f15bf1f3 upload-pack: make sure "want" objects are parsed
When upload-pack receives a "want" line from the client, it
adds it to an object array. We call lookup_object to find
the actual object, which will only check for objects already
in memory. This works because we are expecting to find
objects that we already loaded during the ref advertisement.

We use the resulting object structs for a variety of
purposes. Some of them care only about the object flags, but
others care about the type of the object (e.g.,
ok_to_give_up), or even feed them to the revision parser
(when --depth is used), which assumes that objects it
receives are fully parsed.

Once upon a time, this was OK; any object we loaded into
memory would also have been parsed. But since 435c833
(upload-pack: use peel_ref for ref advertisements,
2012-10-04), we try to avoid parsing objects during the ref
advertisement. This means that lookup_object may return an
object with a type of OBJ_NONE. The resulting mess depends
on the exact set of objects, but can include the revision
parser barfing, or the shallow code sending the wrong set of
objects.

This patch teaches upload-pack to parse each "want" object
as we receive it. We do not replace the lookup_object call
with parse_object, as the current code is careful not to let
just any object appear on a "want" line, but rather only one
we have previously advertised (whereas parse_object would
actually load any arbitrary object from disk).

a6eec12638 upload-pack: drop lookup-before-parse optimization
When we receive a "have" line from the client, we want to
load the object pointed to by the sha1. However, we are
careful to do:

  o = lookup_object(sha1);
  if (!o || !o->parsed)
	  o = parse_object(sha1);

to avoid loading the object from disk if we have already
seen it.  However, since ccdc603 (parse_object: try internal
cache before reading object db), parse_object already does
this optimization internally. We can just call parse_object
directly.

b397ea4863 status: show more info than "currently not on any branch"
When a remote ref or a tag is checked out, HEAD is automatically
detached. There is no user-friendly way to find out what ref is
checked out in this case. This patch digs in reflog for this
information and shows "HEAD detached from origin/master" or "HEAD
detached at v1.8.0" instead of "currently not on any branch".

When it cannot figure out the original ref, it shows an abbreviated
SHA-1. "Currently not on any branch" would never display (unless
reflog is pruned to near empty that the last checkout entry is lost).

8b87cfd000 wt-status: move strbuf into read_and_strip_branch()
The strbufs are placed outside read_and_strip_branch as a premature
optimization: when it reads "refs/heads/foo" to strbuf and wants to
return just "foo", it could do so without memory movement. In return
the caller must not use the returned pointer after releasing strbufs,
which own the buffers that contain the returned strings. It's a clumsy
design.

By moving strbufs into read_and_strip_branch(), the returned pointer
always points to a malloc'd buffer or NULL. The pointer can be passed
around and freed after use.

c3c2e1a09b archive-zip: use deflateInit2() to ask for raw compressed data
We use the function git_deflate_init() -- which wraps the zlib function
deflateInit() -- to initialize compression of ZIP file entries.  This
results in compressed data prefixed with a two-bytes long header and
followed by a four-bytes trailer.  ZIP file entries consist of ZIP
headers and raw compressed data instead, so we remove the zlib wrapper
before writing the result.

We can ask zlib for the the raw compressed data without the unwanted
parts in the first place by using deflateInit2() and specifying a
negative number of bits to size the window.  For that purpose, factor
out the function do_git_deflate_init() and add git_deflate_init_raw(),
which wraps it.  Then use the latter in archive-zip.c and get rid of
the code that stripped the zlib header and trailer.

Also rename the helper function zlib_deflate() to zlib_deflate_raw()
to reflect the change.

Thus we avoid generating data that we throw away anyway, the code
becomes shorter and some magic constants are removed.

7297a44012 entry: fix filter lookup
When looking up the stream filter, write_entry() should be passing the
path of the file in the repository, not the path to which the content is
going to be written.  This allows the file to be correctly looked up
against the .gitattributes files in the working tree.

This change makes the streaming case match the non-streaming case which
passes ce->name to convert_to_working_tree later in the same function.

The two tests added here test the different paths through write_entry
since the CRLF filter is a streaming filter but the user-defined smudge
filter is not streamed.

Correct this by passing diff flags to diff engine, so that combined
diff behaves as normal diff does with spaces, and by coalescing
lines that are removed from both (or more) parents, honoring the
same rule to ignore whitespace changes.

With this change, a conflict-less merge done using a ignore-*

02c56314aa difftool --dir-diff: symlink all files matching the working tree
Some users like to edit files in their diff tool when using "git
difftool --dir-diff --symlink" to compare against the working tree but
difftool currently only created symlinks when a file contains unstaged
changes.

Change this behaviour so that symlinks are created whenever the
right-hand side of the comparison has the same SHA1 as the file in the
working tree.

Note that textconv filters are handled in the same way as by git-diff
and if a clean filter is not the inverse of its smudge filter we already
get a null SHA1 from "diff --raw" and will symlink the file without
going through the new hash-object based check.

4549162e8d mergetools/p4merge: create a base if none available
Originally, with no base, Git gave P4Merge $LOCAL as a dummy base:

   p4merge "$LOCAL" "$LOCAL" "$REMOTE" "$MERGED"

Commit 0a0ec7bd changed this to:

   p4merge "empty file" "$LOCAL" "$REMOTE" "$MERGED"

to avoid the problem of being unable to save in some circumstances with
similar inputs.

Unfortunately this approach produces much worse results on differing
inputs. P4Merge really regards the blank file as the base, and once you
have just a couple of differences between the two branches you end up
with one a massive full-file conflict. The 3-way diff is not readable,
and you have to invoke "difftool MERGE_HEAD HEAD" manually to get a
useful view.

The original approach appears to have invoked special 2-way merge
behaviour in P4Merge that occurs only if the base filename is "" or
equal to the left input.  You get a good visual comparison, and it does
not auto-resolve differences. (Normally if one branch matched the base,
it would autoresolve to the other branch).

But there appears to be no way of getting this 2-way behaviour and being
able to reliably save. Having base==left appears to be triggering other
assumptions. There are tricks the user can use to force the save icon
on, but it's not intuitive.

So we now follow a suggestion given in the original patch's discussion:
generate a virtual base, consisting of the lines common to the two
branches. This is the same as the technique used in resolve and octopus
merges, so we relocate that code to a shared function.

Note that if there are no differences at the same location, this
technique can lead to automatic resolution without conflict, combining
everything from the 2 files.  As with the other merges using this
technique, we assume the user will inspect the result before saving.

c699a7ccdc mergetools/p4merge: swap LOCAL and REMOTE
Reverse LOCAL and REMOTE when invoking P4Merge as a mergetool, so that
the incoming branch is now in the left-hand, blue triangle pane, and the
current branch is in the right-hand, green circle pane.

This change makes use of P4Merge consistent with its built-in help, its
reference documentation, and Perforce itself. But most importantly, it
makes merge results clearer. P4Merge is not totally symmetrical between
left and right; despite changing a few text labels from "theirs/ours" to
"left/right" when invoked manually, it still retains its original
Perforce "theirs/ours" viewpoint.

Most obviously, in the result pane P4Merge shows changes that are common
to both branches in green. This is on the basis of the current branch
being green, as it is when invoked from Perforce; it means that lines in
the result are blue if and only if they are being changed by the merge,
making the resulting diff clearer.

Note that P4Merge now shows "ours" on the right for both diff and merge,
unlike other diff/mergetools, which always have REMOTE on the right.
But observe that REMOTE is the working tree (ie "ours") for a diff,
while it's another branch (ie "theirs") for a merge.

Ours and theirs are reversed for a rebase - see "git help rebase".
However, this does produce the desired "show the results of this commit"
effect in P4Merge - changes that remain in the rebased commit (in your
branch, but not in the new base) appear in blue; changes that do not
appear in the rebased commit (from the new base, or common to both) are
in green. If Perforce had rebase, they'd probably not swap ours/theirs,
but make P4Merge show common changes in blue, picking out our changes in
green. We can't do that, so this is next best.

bbd848633e git p4: avoid expanding client paths in chdir
The generic chdir() helper sets the PWD environment
variable, as that is what is used by p4 to know its
current working directory.  Normally the shell would
do this, but in git-p4, we must do it by hand.

However, when the path contains a symbolic link,
os.getcwd() will return the physical location.  If the
p4 client specification includes symlinks, setting PWD
to the physical location causes p4 to think it is not
inside the client workspace.  It complains, e.g.

    Path /vol/bar/projects/foo/... is not under client root /p/foo

One workaround is to use AltRoots in the p4 client specification,
but it is cleaner to handle it directly in git-p4.

Other uses of chdir still require setting PWD to an
absolute path so p4 features like P4CONFIG work.  See
bf1d68f (git-p4: use absolute directory for PWD env
var, 2011-12-09).

35ba83ccf6 git-completion.bash: zsh does not implement function redirection correctly
A recent change added functions whose entire standard error stream
is redirected to /dev/null using a construct that is valid POSIX.1
but is not widely used:

	funcname () {
		cd "$1" && run some command "$2"
	} 2>/dev/null

Even though this file is "git-completion.bash", zsh completion
support dot-sources it (instead of asking bash to grok it like tcsh
completion does), and zsh does not implement this redirection
correctly.

With zsh, trying to complete an inexistant directory gave this:

  git add no-such-dir/__git_ls_files_helper💿2: no such file or directory: no-such-dir/

Also these functions use "cd" to first go somewhere else before
running a command, but the location the caller wants them to go that
is given as an argument to them should not be affected by CDPATH
variable the users may have set for their interactive session.

To fix both of these, wrap the body of the function in a subshell,
unset CDPATH at the beginning of the subshell, and redirect the
standard error stream of the subshell to /dev/null.

c6898ebf21 add: update pathless 'add [-u|-A]' warning to reflect change of plan
We originally thought the transition would need a period where "git add
[-u|-A]" without pathspec would be forbidden, but the warning is big
enough to scare people and teach them not to use it (or, if so, to
understand the consequences).

bd54cf17a4 archive: handle commits with an empty tree
git-archive relies on get_pathspec to convert its argv into
a list of pathspecs. When get_pathspec is given an empty
argv list, it returns a single pathspec, the empty string,
to indicate that everything matches. When we feed this to
our path_exists function, we typically see that the pathspec
turns up at least one item in the tree, and we are happy.

But when our tree is empty, we erroneously think it is
because the pathspec is too limited, when in fact it is
simply that there is nothing to be found in the tree. This
is a weird corner case, but the correct behavior is almost
certainly to produce an empty archive, not to exit with an
error.

This patch teaches git-archive to create empty archives when
there is no pathspec given (we continue to complain if a
pathspec is given, since it obviously is not matched). It
also confirms that the tar and zip writers produce sane
output in this instance.

f838ce5826 test-lib: factor out $GIT_UNZIP setup
We set up the $GIT_UNZIP variable and lazy prereq in
multiple places (and the next patch is about to add another
one). Let's factor it out to avoid repeating ourselves.

35297089e5 shell: new no-interactive-login command to print a custom message
If I disable git-shell's interactive mode by removing the
~/git-shell-commands directory, attempts to ssh in to the service
produce a message intended for the administrator:

	$ ssh git@myserver
	fatal: Interactive git shell is not enabled.
	hint: ~/git-shell-commands should exist and have read and execute access.
	$

That is helpful for the new admin who is wondering "What? Why isn't
the git-shell I just set up working?", but once the site setup is
complete, it would be better to give the user a friendly hint that she
is on the right track, like GitHub does.

	Hi <username>! You've successfully authenticated, but
	GitHub does not provide shell access.

An appropriate greeting might even include more complex dynamic
information, like gitolite's list of repositories the user has access
to.  Add support for a ~/git-shell-commands/no-interactive-login
command that generates an arbitrary greeting.  When the user tries to
log in:

 * If the file ~/git-shell-commands/no-interactive-login exists,
   run no-interactive-login to let the server say what it likes,
   then hang up.

 * Otherwise, if ~/git-shell-commands/ is present, start an
   interactive read-eval-print loop.

 * Otherwise, print the usual configuration hint and hang up.

cdd9b3c96c shell doc: emphasize purpose and security model
The original git-shell(1) manpage emphasized that the shell supports
only git transport commands.  As the shell gained features, that
emphasis and focus in the manual has been lost.  Bring it back by
splitting the manpage into a few short sections and fleshing out each:

 - SYNOPSIS, describing how the shell gets used in practice
 - DESCRIPTION, which gives an overview of the purpose and guarantees
   provided by this restricted shell
 - COMMANDS, listing supported commands and restrictions on the
   arguments they accept
 - INTERACTIVE USE, describing the interactive mode

Also add a "see also" section with related reading.

ca70c9ea72 perf: update documentation of GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT
Currently the documentation of GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT says the default is
five while "perf-lib.sh" uses a value of three as a default.

Update the documentation so that it is consistent with the code.

6cd3c05327 format-patch: RFC 2047 says multi-octet character may not be split
Even though an earlier attempt (bafc478..41dd00bad) cleaned
up RFC 2047 encoding, pretty.c::add_rfc2047() still decides
where to split the output line by going through the input
one byte at a time, and potentially splits a character in
the middle.  A subject line may end up showing like this:

     ".... fö?? bar".   (instead of  ".... föö bar".)

if split incorrectly.

RFC 2047, section 5 (3) explicitly forbids such beaviour

    Each 'encoded-word' MUST represent an integral number of
    characters.  A multi-octet character may not be split across
    adjacent 'encoded- word's.

that means that e.g. for

    Subject: .... föö bar

encoding

    Subject: =?UTF-8?q?....=20f=C3=B6=C3=B6?=
     =?UTF-8?q?=20bar?=

is correct, and

    Subject: =?UTF-8?q?....=20f=C3=B6=C3?=      <-- NOTE ö is broken here
     =?UTF-8?q?=B6=20bar?=

is not, because "ö" character UTF-8 encoding C3 B6 is split here across
adjacent encoded words.

To fix the problem, make the loop grab one _character_ at a time and
determine its output length to see where to break the output line.  Note
that this version only knows about UTF-8, but the logic to grab one
character is abstracted out in mbs_chrlen() function to make it possible
to extend it to other encodings with the help of iconv in the future.
