Change an invocation of test_must_fail() to be inside a
test_expect_success() as is our usual pattern. Having it outside
caused our tests to fail under prove(1) since we wouldn't print a

f032d66ddb request-pull: do not emit "tag" before the tagname
The whole point of the recent update to allow "git pull $url $tagname" is
so that the integrator does not have to store the (signed) tag that is
used to convey authenticity to be recorded in the resulting merge in the
local repository's tag namespace.  Asking for a merge be made with "git
pull $url tag $tagname" defeats it.

Note that the request can become ambiguous if the requestor has a branch
with the same name as the tag, but that is not a new problem limited to
pulling. I wouldn't mind if somebody wants to add disambiguation to the
find_matching_ref logic in the script as a separate patch, though.

a4ddbc33d7 http-push: enable "proactive auth"
Before commit 986bbc08, git was proactive about asking for
http passwords. It assumed that if you had a username in
your URL, you would also want a password, and asked for it
before making any http requests.

However, this could interfere with the use of .netrc (see
986bbc08 for details). And it was also unnecessary, since
the http fetching code had learned to recognize an HTTP 401
and prompt the user then. Furthermore, the proactive prompt
could interfere with the usage of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for
details).

Unfortunately, the http push-over-DAV code never learned to
recognize HTTP 401, and so was broken by this change. This
patch does a quick fix of re-enabling the "proactive auth"
strategy only for http-push, leaving the dumb http fetch and
smart-http as-is.

0521710a8b t5540: test DAV push with authentication
We don't currently test this case at all, and instead just
test the DAV mechanism over an unauthenticated push. That
isn't very realistic, as most people will want to
authenticate pushes.

Two of the tests expect_failure as they reveal bugs:

  1. Pushing without a username in the URL fails to ask for
     credentials when we get an HTTP 401. This has always
     been the case, but it would be nice if it worked like
     smart-http.

  2. Pushing with a username fails to ask for the password
     since 986bbc0 (http: don't always prompt for password,
     2011-11-04). This is a severe regression in v1.7.8, as
     authenticated push-over-DAV is now totally unusable
     unless you have credentials in your .netrc.

1e7ba0f9ca fetch-pack: match refs exactly
When we are determining the list of refs to fetch via
fetch-pack, we have two sets of refs to compare: those on
the remote side, and a "match" list of things we want to
fetch. We iterate through the remote refs alphabetically,
seeing if each one is wanted by the "match" list.

Since def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack",
2005-07-04), we have used the "path_match" function to do a
suffix match, where a remote ref is considered wanted if
any of the "match" elements is a suffix of the remote
refname.

This enables callers of fetch-pack to specify unqualified
refs and have them matched up with remote refs (e.g., ask
for "A" and get remote's "refs/heads/A"). However, if you
provide a fully qualified ref, then there are corner cases
where we provide the wrong answer. For example, given a
remote with two refs:

   refs/foo/refs/heads/master
   refs/heads/master

asking for "refs/heads/master" will first match
"refs/foo/refs/heads/master" by the suffix rule, and we will
erroneously fetch it instead of refs/heads/master.

As it turns out, all callers of fetch_pack do provide
fully-qualified refs for the match list. There are two ways
fetch_pack can get match lists:

  1. Through the transport code (i.e., via git-fetch)

  2. On the command-line of git-fetch-pack

In the first case, we will always be providing the names of
fully-qualified refs from "struct ref" objects. We will have
pre-matched those ref objects already (since we have to
handle more advanced matching, like wildcard refspecs), and
are just providing a list of the refs whose objects we need.

In the second case, users could in theory be providing
non-qualified refs on the command-line. However, the
fetch-pack documentation claims that refs should be fully
qualified (and has always done so since it was written in
2005).

Let's change this path_match call to simply check for string
equality, matching what the callers of fetch_pack are
expecting.

e9d866e32c t5500: give fully-qualified refs to fetch-pack
The fetch-pack documentation is very clear that refs given
on the command line are to be full refs:

  <refs>...::
          The remote heads to update from. This is relative to
          $GIT_DIR (e.g. "HEAD", "refs/heads/master").  When
          unspecified, update from all heads the remote side has.

and this has been the case since fetch-pack was originally documented in
8b3d9dc ([PATCH] Documentation: clone/fetch/upload., 2005-07-14).

Let's follow our own documentation to set a good example,
and to avoid breaking when this restriction is enforced in
the next patch.

861444f6d7 t: add test harness for external credential helpers
We already have tests for the internal helpers, but it's
nice to give authors of external tools an easy way to
sanity-check their helpers.

If you have written the "git-credential-foo" helper, you can
do so with:

  GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=foo \
  make t0303-credential-external.sh

This assumes that your helper is capable of both storing and
retrieving credentials (some helpers may be read-only, and
they will fail these tests).

If your helper supports time-based expiration with a
configurable timeout, you can test that feature like this:

  GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_TIMEOUT="foo --timeout=1" \
  make t0303-credential-external.sh

71e1b4b6bf credentials: add "store" helper
This is like "cache", except that we actually put the
credentials on disk. This can be terribly insecure, of
course, but we do what we can to protect them by filesystem
permissions, and we warn the user in the documentation.

This is not unlike using .netrc to store entries, but it's a
little more user-friendly. Instead of putting credentials in
place ahead of time, we transparently store them after
prompting the user for them once.

218b65fbf9 revert: do not remove state until sequence is finished
As v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~4 (2011-08-04) explains, git cherry-pick removes
the sequencer state just before applying the final patch.  In the
single-pick case, that was a good thing, since --abort and --continue
work fine without access to such state and removing it provides a
signal that git should not complain about the need to clobber it ("a
cherry-pick or revert is already in progress") in sequences like the
following:

	git cherry-pick foo
	git read-tree -m -u HEAD; # forget that; let's try a different one
	git cherry-pick bar

After the recent patch "allow single-pick in the middle of cherry-pick
sequence" we don't need that hack any more.  In the new regime, a
traditional "git cherry-pick <commit>" command never looks at
.git/sequencer, so we do not need to cripple "git cherry-pick
<commit>..<commit>" for it any more.

So now you can run "git cherry-pick --abort" near the end of a
multi-pick sequence and it will abort the entire sequence, instead of
misbehaving and aborting just the final commit.

7f13334e07 revert: pass around rev-list args in already-parsed form
Since 7e2bfd3f (revert: allow cherry-picking more than one commit,
2010-07-02), the pick/revert machinery has kept track of the set of
commits to be cherry-picked or reverted using commit_argc and
commit_argv variables, storing the corresponding command-line
parameters.

Future callers as other commands are built in (am, rebase, sequencer)
may find it easier to pass rev-list options to this machinery in
already-parsed form.  Teach cmd_cherry_pick and cmd_revert to parse
the rev-list arguments in advance and pass the commit set to
pick_revisions() as a rev_info structure.

093a309136 revert: allow cherry-pick --continue to commit before resuming
When "git cherry-pick ..bar" encounters conflicts, permit the operator
to use cherry-pick --continue after resolving them as a shortcut for
"git commit && git cherry-pick --continue" to record the resolution
and carry on with the rest of the sequence.

This improves the analogy with "git rebase" (in olden days --continue
was the way to preserve authorship when a rebase encountered
conflicts) and fits well with a general UI goal of making "git cmd
--continue" save humans the trouble of deciding what to do next.

Example: after encountering a conflict from running "git cherry-pick
foo bar baz":

	CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in main.c
	error: could not apply f78a8d98c... bar!
	hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths
	hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
	hint: and commit the result with 'git commit'

We edit main.c to resolve the conflict, mark it acceptable with "git
add main.c", and can run "cherry-pick --continue" to resume the
sequence.

	$ git cherry-pick --continue
	[editor opens to confirm commit message]
	[master 78c8a8c98] bar!
	 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
	[master 87ca8798c] baz!
	 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)

This is done for both codepaths to pick multiple commits and a single
commit.

e2770979fe credentials: add "cache" helper
If you access repositories over smart-http using http
authentication, then it can be annoying to have git ask you
for your password repeatedly. We cache credentials in
memory, of course, but git is composed of many small
programs. Having to input your password for each one can be
frustrating.

This patch introduces a credential helper that will cache
passwords in memory for a short period of time.

a78fbb4fb6 credential: make relevance of http path configurable
When parsing a URL into a credential struct, we carefully
record each part of the URL, including the path on the
remote host, and use the result as part of the credential
context.

This had two practical implications:

  1. Credential helpers which store a credential for later
     access are likely to use the "path" portion as part of
     the storage key. That means that a request to

       https://example.com/foo.git

     would not use the same credential that was stored in an
     earlier request for:

       https://example.com/bar.git

  2. The prompt shown to the user includes all relevant
     context, including the path.

In most cases, however, users will have a single password
per host. The behavior in (1) will be inconvenient, and the
prompt in (2) will be overly long.

This patch introduces a config option to toggle the
relevance of http paths. When turned on, we use the path as
before. When turned off, we drop the path component from the
context: helpers don't see it, and it does not appear in the
prompt.

This is nothing you couldn't do with a clever credential
helper at the start of your stack, like:

  [credential "http://"]
	helper = "!f() { grep -v ^path= ; }; f"
	helper = your_real_helper

But doing this:

  [credential]
	useHttpPath = false

is way easier and more readable. Furthermore, since most
users will want the "off" behavior, that is the new default.
Users who want it "on" can set the variable (either for all
credentials, or just for a subset using
credential.*.useHttpPath).

compare URLs in subsection headings to the current context.
This means you can apply configuration to a subset of
credentials. For example:

  [credential "https://example.com"]
	helper = foo

would match a request for "https://example.com/foo.git", but
not one for "https://kernel.org/foo.git".

This is overkill for the "helper" variable, since users are
unlikely to want different helpers for different sites (and
since helpers run arbitrary code, they could do the matching
themselves anyway).

However, future patches will add new config variables where
this extra feature will be more useful.

148bb6a7b4 http: use credential API to get passwords
This patch converts the http code to use the new credential
API, both for http authentication as well as for getting
certificate passwords.

Most of the code change is simply variable naming (the
passwords are now contained inside the credential struct)
or deletion of obsolete code (the credential code handles
URL parsing and prompting for us).

The behavior should be the same, with one exception: the
credential code will prompt with a description based on the
credential components. Therefore, the old prompt of:

  Username for 'example.com':
  Password for 'example.com':

now looks like:

  Username for 'https://example.com/repo.git':
  Password for 'https://user@example.com/repo.git':

Note that we include more information in each line,
specifically:

  1. We now include the protocol. While more noisy, this is
     an important part of knowing what you are accessing
     (especially if you care about http vs https).

  2. We include the username in the password prompt. This is
     not a big deal when you have just been prompted for it,
     but the username may also come from the remote's URL
     (and after future patches, from configuration or
     credential helpers).  In that case, it's a nice
     reminder of the user for which you're giving the
     password.

  3. We include the path component of the URL. In many
     cases, the user won't care about this and it's simply
     noise (i.e., they'll use the same credential for a
     whole site). However, that is part of a larger
     question, which is whether path components should be
     part of credential context, both for prompting and for
     lookup by storage helpers. That issue will be addressed
     as a whole in a future patch.

Similarly, for unlocking certificates, we used to say:

  Certificate Password for 'example.com':

and we now say:

  Password for 'cert:///path/to/certificate':

Showing the path to the client certificate makes more sense,
as that is what you are unlocking, not "example.com".

abca927dbe introduce credentials API
There are a few places in git that need to get a username
and password credential from the user; the most notable one
is HTTP authentication for smart-http pushing.

Right now the only choices for providing credentials are to
put them plaintext into your ~/.netrc, or to have git prompt
you (either on the terminal or via an askpass program). The
former is not very secure, and the latter is not very
convenient.

Unfortunately, there is no "always best" solution for
password management. The details will depend on the tradeoff
you want between security and convenience, as well as how
git can integrate with other security systems (e.g., many
operating systems provide a keychain or password wallet for
single sign-on).

This patch provides an abstract notion of credentials as a
data item, and provides three basic operations:

  - fill (i.e., acquire from external storage or from the
    user)

  - approve (mark a credential as "working" for further
    storage)

  - reject (mark a credential as "not working", so it can
    be removed from storage)

These operations can be backed by external helper processes
that interact with system- or user-specific secure storage.

a96250c6fb test-lib: add test_config_global variant
The point of test_config is to simultaneously set a config
variable and register its cleanup handler, like:

  test_config core.foo bar

However, it stupidly assumes that $1 contained the name of
the variable, which means it won't work for:

  test_config --global core.foo bar

We could try to parse the command-line ourselves and figure
out which parts need to be fed to test_unconfig. But since
this is likely the most common variant, it's much simpler
and less error-prone to simply add a new function.

13c907c4fe t3401: use test_commit in setup
Simplify t3401 by using test_commit in the setup. This lets us refer
to commits using their tags and there is no longer a need to create
the branch my-topic-branch-merge. Also, the branch master-merge points
to the same commit as master (even before this change), so that branch
does not need to be created either.

While at it, replace "test ! -d" by "test_path_is_missing".
