A broken or badly formatted commit might not record author or

Once we know the number of objects in the input pack, we allocate an
array of nr_objects of struct delta_entry. On x86-64, this struct is
32 bytes long. The union delta_base, which is part of struct
delta_entry, provides enough space to store either ofs-delta (8 bytes)
or ref-delta (20 bytes).
Because ofs-delta encoding is more efficient space-wise and more
performant at runtime than ref-delta encoding, Git packers try to use
ofs-delta whenever possible, and it is expected that objects encoded
as ref-delta are minority.
In the best clone case where no ref-delta object is present, we waste
(20-8) * nr_objects bytes because of this union. That's about 38MB out
of 100MB for deltas[] with 3.4M objects, or 38%. deltas[] would be
around 62MB without the waste.
This patch attempts to eliminate that. deltas[] array is split into
two: one for ofs-delta and one for ref-delta. Many functions are also
duplicated because of this split. With this patch, ofs_deltas[] array
takes 51MB. ref_deltas[] should remain unallocated in clone case (0
bytes). This array grows as we see ref-delta. We save about half in
this case, or 25% of total bookkeeping.
The saving is more than the calculation above because some padding in
the old delta_entry struct is removed. ofs_delta_entry is 16 bytes,
including the 4 bytes padding. That's 13MB for padding, but packing
the struct could break platforms that do not support unaligned
access. If someone on 32-bit is really low on memory and only deals
with packs smaller than 2G, using 32-bit off_t would eliminate the
padding and save 27MB on top.
A note about ofs_deltas allocation. We could use ref_deltas memory
allocation strategy for ofs_deltas. But that probably just adds more
overhead on top. ofs-deltas are generally the majority (1/2 to 2/3) in
any pack. Incremental realloc may lead to too many memcpy. And if we
preallocate, say 1/2 or 2/3 of nr_objects initially, the growth rate
of ALLOC_GROW() could make this array larger than nr_objects, wasting
more memory.

This reverts commit 2bf15a3330, whose
intention was good, but the verbosity levels used in merge-recursive
turns out to be rather uneven. For example, a merge of two branches
with conflicting submodule updates used to report CONFLICT: output
with --quiet but no longer (which *is* desired), while the final
"Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit" message is
still shown even with --quiet (which *is* inconsistent).
Originally reported by Bryan Turner; it is too early to declare what
the concensus is, but it seems that we would need to level the
verbosity levels used in merge strategy backends before we can go
forward. In the meantime, we'd revert to the old behaviour until
that happens.

This makes "git merge --quiet" really quiet when we call
into merge-recursive.
Note that we can't just pass our flag down as-is; the two
parts of the code use different scales. We center at "0" as
normal for git-merge (with "--quiet" giving a negative
value), but merge-recursive uses "2" as its center. This
patch passes a negative value to merge-recursive rather than
"1", though, as otherwise the user would have to use "-qqq"
to squelch all messages (but the downside is that the user
cannot distinguish between levels 0-2 if without resorting
to the GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY variable).
We may want to review and renormalize the message severities
in merge-recursive, but that does not have to happen now.
This is at least in improvement in the sense that we are
respecting "--quiet" at all.

If you create a git repository in the root directory with
"git init /", we erroneously write a core.worktree entry.
This isn't _wrong_, in the sense that it's OK to set
core.worktree when we don't need to. But it is unnecessarily
surprising if you later move the .git directory to another
path (which usually moves the relative working tree, but is
foiled if there is an explicit worktree set).
The problem is that we check whether core.worktree is
necessary by seeing if we can make the git_dir by
concatenating "/.git" onto the working tree. That would lead
to "//.git" in this instance, but we actually have "/.git"
(without the doubled slash).
We can fix this by special-casing the root directory. I also
split the logic out into its own function to make the
conditional a bit more readable (and used skip_prefix, which
I think makes it a little more obvious what is going on).
No tests, as we would need to be able to write to "/" to do
so. I did manually confirm that:
sudo git init /
cd /
git rev-parse --show-toplevel
git config core.worktree
still finds the top-level correctly (as "/"), and does not
set any core.worktree variable.

"git show-branch --topics <rev> <revs>..." displays ancestry graph, only
considering commits that are in all given revs, except the first one.
"git show-branch" displays ancestry graph for all local branches.
Unfortunately, "git show-branch --topics <rev>" only prints out the rev
info for the given rev, and nothing else, e.g.:
$ git show-branch --topics origin/master
[origin/master] Sync with 2.3.3
While there is an option to add all remote-tracking branches (-r), and
another to add all local+remote branches (-a), there is no option to add
only local branches. Adding such an option could be considered, but a
user would likely already expect that the above command line considers
the lack of rev other than for --topics as meaning all local branches,
like when there is no argument at all.
Moreover, when using -r and -a along with --topics, the first local or
remote-tracking branch, depending on alphabetic order is used instead of
the one given after --topics (any rev given on the command line is
actually simply ignored when either -r or -a is given). And if no rev is
given at all, the fact that the first alphetical branch is the base of
topics is probably not expected by users (Maybe --topics should always
require one rev on the command line?)
This change makes

When we find an object in a packfile index, we make sure we
can still open the packfile itself (or that it is already
open), as it might have been deleted by a simultaneous
repack. If we can't access the packfile, we print a warning
for the user and tell the caller that we don't have the
object (we can then look in other packfiles, or find a loose
version, before giving up).
The warning we print to the user isn't really accomplishing
anything, and it is potentially confusing to users. In the
normal case, it is complete noise; we find the object
elsewhere, and the user does not have to care that we racily
saw a packfile index that became stale. It didn't affect the
operation at all.
A possibly more interesting case is when we later can't find
the object, and report failure to the user. In this case the
warning could be considered a clue toward that ultimate
failure. But it's not really a useful clue in practice. We
wouldn't even print it consistently (since we are racing
with another process, we might not even see the .idx file,
or we might win the race and open the packfile, completing
the operation).
This patch drops the warning entirely (not only from the
fill_pack_entry site, but also from an identical use in
pack-objects). If we did find the warning interesting in the
error case, we could stuff it away and reveal it to the user
when we later die() due to the broken object. But that
complexity just isn't worth it.

The expected call sequence is for the caller to use match_pathspec()
repeatedly on a set of pathspecs, accumulating the "hits" in a
separate array, and then call this function to diagnose a pathspec
that never matched anything, as that can indicate a typo from the
command line, e.g. "git commit Maekfile".
Many builtin commands use this function from builtin/ls-files.c,
which is not a very healthy arrangement. ls-files might have been
the first command to feel the need for such a helper, but the need
is shared by everybody who uses the "match and then report" pattern.
Move it to dir.c where match_pathspec() is defined.

Entries added by "git add -N" are reminder for the user so that they
don't forget to add them before committing. These entries appear in
the index even though they are not real. Their presence in the index
leads to a confusing "git status" like this:
On branch master
Changes to be committed:
new file: foo
Changes not staged for commit:
modified: foo
If you do a "git commit", "foo" will not be included even though
"status" reports it as "to be committed". This patch changes the
output to become
On branch master
Changes not staged for commit:
new file: foo
no changes added to commit
The two hunks in diff-lib.c adjust "diff-index" and "diff-files" so
that i-t-a entries appear as new files in diff-files and nothing in
diff-index.
Due to this change, diff-files may start to report "new files" for the
first time. "add -u" needs to be told about this or it will die in
denial, screaming "new files can't exist! Reality is wrong." Luckily,
it's the only one among run_diff_files() callers that needs fixing.
Now in the new world order, a hierarchy in the index that contain
i-t-a paths is written out as a tree object as if these i-t-a
entries do not exist, and comparing the index with such a tree
object that would result from writing out the hierarchy will result
in no difference. Update a test in t2203 that expected the i-t-a
entries to appear as "added to the index" in the comparison to
instead expect no output.
An earlier change eec3e7e4 (cache-tree: invalidate i-t-a paths after
generating trees, 2012-12-16) becomes an unnecessary pessimization
in the new world order---a cache-tree in the index that corresponds
to a hierarchy with i-t-a paths can now be marked as valid and
record the object name of the tree that results from writing a tree
object out of that hierarchy, as it will compare equal to that tree.
Reverting the commit is left for the future, though, as it is purely
a performance issue and no longer affects correctness.

Prune should know about broken objects at the tips of refs,
so that we can feed them to our traversal rather than
ignoring them. It's better for us to abort the operation on
the broken object than it is to start deleting objects with
an incomplete view of the reachability namespace.
Note that for missing objects, aborting is the best we can
do. For a badly-named ref, we technically could use its sha1
as a reachability tip. However, the iteration code just
feeds us a null sha1, so there would be a reasonable amount
of code involved to pass down our wishes. It's not really
worth trying to do better, because this is a case that

If clone fails, we generally try to clean up any directories
we've created. We do this by installing an atexit handler,
so that we don't have to manually trigger cleanup. However,
since we install this after touching the filesystem, any
errors between our initial mkdir() and our atexit() call
will result in us leaving a crufty directory around.
We can fix this by moving our atexit() call earlier. It's OK
to do it before the junk_work_tree variable is set, because
remove_junk makes sure the variable is initialized. This
means we "activate" the handler by assigning to the
junk_work_tree variable, which we now bump down to just
after we call mkdir(). We probably do not want to do it
before, because a plausible reason for mkdir() to fail is
EEXIST (i.e., we are racing with another "git init"), and we
would not want to remove their work.
OTOH, this is probably not that big a deal; we will allow
cloning into an empty directory (and skip the mkdir), which
is already racy (i.e., one clone may see the other's empty
dir and start writing into it). Still, it does not hurt to
err on the side of caution here.
Note that writing into junk_work_tree and junk_git_dir after
installing the handler is also technically racy, as we call
our handler on an async signal. Depending on the platform,
we could see a sheared write to the variables. Traditionally
we have not worried about this, and indeed we already do
this later in the function. If we want to address that, it
can come as a separate topic.

For each object in the input pack, we need one struct object_entry. On
x86-64, this struct is 64 bytes long. Although:
- The 8 bytes for delta_depth and base_object_no are only useful when
show_stat is set. And it's never set unless someone is debugging.
- The three fields hdr_size, type and real_type take 4 bytes each
even though they never use more than 4 bits.
By moving delta_depth and base_object_no out of struct object_entry
and make the other 3 fields one byte long instead of 4, we shrink 25%
of this struct.
On a 3.4M object repo (*) that's about 53MB. The saving is less
impressive compared to index-pack memory use for basic bookkeeping (**),
about 16%.
(*) linux-2.6.git already has 4M objects as of v3.19-rc7 so this is
not an unrealistic number of objects that we have to deal with.
(**) 3.4M * (sizeof(object_entry) + sizeof(delta_entry)) = 311MB

If NULL is passed to ref_transaction_update()'s new_sha1 parameter,
then just verify old_sha1 (under lock) without trying to change the

This will let us manipulate any transport flags which have matching

We could also just make "flags" a static file-scope global,
but the result is a little confusing. We end up passing it
along through do_push and push_with_options, each of which
further munge it. Having slightly-differing versions of the
flags variable available to those functions would probably
cause more confusion than it is worth. Let's just keep the
original local to cmd_push, and it can continue to pass it

Because Git tracks symbolic links as symbolic links, a path that
has a symbolic link in its leading part (e.g. path/to/dir/file,
where path/to/dir is a symbolic link to somewhere else, be it
inside or outside the working tree) can never appear in a patch
that validly applies, unless the same patch first removes the
symbolic link to allow a directory to be created there.
Detect and reject such a patch.
Things to note:
- Unfortunately, we cannot reuse the has_symlink_leading_path()
from dir.c, as that is only about the working tree, but "git
apply" can be told to apply the patch only to the index or to
both the index and to the working tree.
- We cannot directly use has_symlink_leading_path() even when we
are applying only to the working tree, as an early patch of a
valid input may remove a symbolic link path/to/dir and then a
later patch of the input may create a path path/to/dir/file, but
"git apply" first checks the input without touching either the
index or the working tree. The leading symbolic link check must
be done on the interim result we compute in-core (i.e. after the
first patch, there is no path/to/dir symbolic link and it is
perfectly valid to create path/to/dir/file).
Similarly, when an input creates a symbolic link path/to/dir and
then creates a file path/to/dir/file, we need to flag it as an
error without actually creating path/to/dir symbolic link in the
filesystem.
Instead, for any patch in the input that leaves a path (i.e. a non
deletion) in the result, we check all leading paths against the
resulting tree that the patch would create by inspecting all the
patches in the input and then the target of patch application
(either the index or the working tree).
This way, we catch a mischief or a mistake to add a symbolic link
path/to/dir and a file path/to/dir/file at the same time, while
allowing a valid patch that removes a symbolic link path/to/dir and
then adds a file path/to/dir/file.

We should reject a patch, whether it renames/copies dir/file to
elsewhere with or without modificiation, or updates dir/file in

from a path that is beyond a symbolic link.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
We currently read the preimage to apply a patch from the index only
when the --cached option is given. Do so also when the command is
running under the --index option. With --index, the index entry and
the working tree file for a path that is involved in a patch must be
identical, so this should not affect the result, but by reading from
the index, we will get the protection to avoid reading an unintended
path beyond a symbolic link automatically.

By default, a patch that affects outside the working area (either a
Git controlled working tree, or the current working directory when
"git apply" is used as a replacement of GNU patch) is rejected as a
mistake (or a mischief). Git itself does not create such a patch,
unless the user bends over backwards and specifies a non-standard
prefix to "git diff" and friends.
When `git apply` is used as a "better GNU patch", the user can pass
the `--unsafe-paths` option to override this safety check. This
option has no effect when `--index` or `--cached` is in use.
The new test was stolen from Jeff King with slight enhancements.
Note that a few new tests for touching outside the working area by
following a symbolic link are still expected to fail at this step,
but will be fixed in later steps.

When the incoming patch has whitespace errors in a common context
line (i.e. a line that is expected to be found and is not modified

errors the line has, in addition to the whitespace error on a line
that is updated by the patch. However, we did not count and report
that we fixed whitespace errors on such lines.
[jc: This is iffy. What if the whitespace error has been fixed in
the target since the patch was written? A common context line we
see in the patch has errors, and it matches a line in the target
that has the errors already corrected, resulting in no change, which
we may not want to count after all. On the other hand, we are
reporting whitespace errors _in_ the incoming patch, so...]

Under --whitespace=fix option, match_fragment() function examines
the preimage (the common context and the removed lines in the patch)
and the file being patched and checks if they match after correcting
all whitespace errors. When they are found to match, the common
context lines in the preimage is replaced with the fixed copy,
because these lines will then be copied to the corresponding place
in the postimage by a later call to update_pre_post_images(). Lines
that are added in the postimage, under --whitespace=fix, have their
whitespace errors already fixed when apply_one_fragment() prepares
the preimage and the postimage, so in the end, application of the
patch can be done by replacing the block of text in the file being
patched that matched the preimage with what is in the postimage that
was updated by update_pre_post_images().
In the earlier days, fixing whitespace errors always resulted in
reduction of size, either collapsing runs of spaces in the indent to
a tab or removing the trailing whitespaces. These days, however,
some whitespace error fix results in extending the size.
250b3c6c (apply --whitespace=fix: avoid running over the postimage
buffer, 2013-03-22) tried to compute the final postimage size but
its math was flawed. It counted the size of the block of text in
the original being patched after fixing the whitespace errors on its
lines that correspond to the preimage. That number does not have
much to do with how big the final postimage would be.
Instead count (1) the added lines in the postimage, whose size is
the same as in the final patch result because their whitespace
errors have already been corrected, and (2) the fixed size of the
lines that are common.
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
"git apply --whitespace=fix" used to be able to assume that fixing
errors will always reduce the size by e.g. stripping whitespaces at
the end of lines or collapsing runs of spaces into tabs at the
beginning of lines. An update to accomodate fixes that lengthens
the result by e.g. expanding leading tabs into spaces were made long
time ago but the logic miscounted the necessary space after such
whitespace fixes, leading to either under-allocation or over-usage
of already allocated space.

future breakage. The test was stolen from Kyle McKay who helped

The code handling %(upstream:track) and %(upstream:trackshort)
assumed that it always had a valid branch that had been sanitized
earlier in populate_value(), and thus did not check the return value
of the call to stat_tracking_info().
While there is indeed some sanitization code that basically
corresponds to stat_tracking_info() returning 0 (no base branch
set), the function can also return -1 when the base branch did exist
but has since then been deleted.
In this case, num_ours and num_theirs had undefined values and a
call to `git for-each-ref --format="%(upstream:track)"` could print
spurious values such as
[behind -111794512]
[ahead 38881640, behind 5103867]

- "tag.h" and "tree.h" were necessary since 8e440259 (Use blob_,
commit_, tag_, and tree_type throughout., 2006-04-02) to check
the type of object by comparing typename with tree_type and
tag_type (pointers to extern strings).
21666f1a (convert object type handling from a string to a number,
2007-02-26) made these <type>_type strings unnecessary, and it
could have switched to include "object.h", which is necessary to
use typename(), but it forgot to do so. Because "tag.h" and
"tree.h" include "object.h", it did not need to explicitly
include "object.h" in order to start using typename() itself.
We do not even have to include "object.h" after removing these
two #includes, because "builtin.h" includes "commit.h" which in
turn includes "object.h" these days. This happened at 7b9c0a69
(git-commit-tree: make it usable from other builtins,

When receive.denyCurrentBranch is set to updateInstead, a push that
tries to update the branch that is currently checked out is accepted
only when the index and the working tree exactly matches the
currently checked out commit, in which case the index and the
working tree are updated to match the pushed commit. Otherwise the
push is refused.
This hook can be used to customize this "push-to-deploy" logic. The
hook receives the commit with which the tip of the current branch is
going to be updated, and can decide what kind of local changes are
acceptable and how to update the index and the working tree to match
the updated tip of the current branch.
For example, the hook can simply run `git read-tree -u -m HEAD "$1"`
in order to emulate 'git fetch' that is run in the reverse direction
with `git push`, as the two-tree form of `read-tree -u -m` is
essentially the same as `git checkout` that switches branches while
keeping the local changes in the working tree that do not interfere
with the difference between the branches.

This adds support to send-pack to negotiate and use atomic pushes
iff the server supports it. Atomic pushes are activated by a new command
line flag --atomic.
In order to do this we also need to change the semantics for send_pack()
slightly. The existing send_pack() function actually doesn't send all the
refs back to the server when multiple refs are involved, for example
when using --all. Several of the failure modes for pushes can already be
detected locally in the send_pack client based on the information from the
initial server side list of all the refs as generated by receive-pack.
Any such refs that we thus know would fail to push are thus pruned from
the list of refs we send to the server to update.
For atomic pushes, we have to deal thus with both failures that are detected
locally as well as failures that are reported back from the server. In order
to do so we treat all local failures as push failures too.
We introduce a new status code REF_STATUS_ATOMIC_PUSH_FAILED so we can
flag all refs that we would normally have tried to push to the server
but we did not due to local failures. This is to improve the error message
back to the end user to flag that "these refs failed to update since the
atomic push operation failed."

The parse_options API expects an array of alternative usage lines
to which it automatically ads the language-appropriate "or" when
displaying. Each of these options is marked for translation with N_
and then later translated when gettext is called on each element
of the array.
Since the N_ macro just expands to its argument, if two N_-marked
strings appear next to each other without being separated by anything
else such as a comma, the preprocessor will join them into one string.
In that case two separate strings get marked for translation, but at
runtime they have been joined into a single string passed to gettext
which then fails to get translated because the combined string was
never marked for translation.
Fix this by properly separating the two N_ marked strings with
a comma and removing the embedded "\n" and " or:" that are
properly supplied by the parse_options API.

checkout-index --temp only properly prints relative paths which are
descendants of the current directory. Paths in ancestor or sibling
directories (or their children) are often printed in mangled form. For
example:
mkdir a bbb &&
>file &&
>bbb/file &&
git update-index --add file bbb/file &&
cd a &&
git checkout-index --temp ../file ../bbb/file
prints:
.merge_file_ooblek le
.merge_file_igloo0 b/file
rather than the correct:
.merge_file_ooblek ../file
.merge_file_igloo0 ../bbb/file
Internally, given the above example, checkout-index prefixes each input
argument with the name of the current directory ("a/", in this case),
and then assumes that it can simply skip forward by strlen("a/") bytes
to recover the original name. This works for files in the current
directory or its descendants, but fails for files in ancestors or
siblings (or their children) due to path normalization.
For instance, given "../file", "a/" is prepended, giving "a/../file".
Path normalization folds out "a/../", resulting in "file". Attempting
to recover the original name by skipping strlen("a/") bytes gives the
incorrect "le" rather than the desired "../file".
Fix this by taking advantage of write_name_quoted_relative() to recover
the original name properly, rather than assuming that it can be
recovered by skipping strlen(prefix) bytes.
As a bonus, this also fixes a bug in which checkout-index --temp
accessed and printed memory beyond the end-of-string. For instance,
within a subdirectory named "subdirectory", and given argument
"../file", prefixing would give "subdirectory/../file", which would
become "file" after normalization. checkout-index would then attempt to
recover the original name by skipping strlen("subdirectory/") bytes of
"file", which placed it well beyond end-of-string. Despite this error,
it often appeared to give the correct result, but only due to an
accident of implementation which left an apparently correct copy of the
path in memory following the normalized value. In particular, handed
"subdirectory/../file", in-place processing by normalize_path_copy_len()
resulted in "file\0rectory/../file". When checkout-index skipped
strlen("subdirectory/") bytes, it ended up back at "../file" and thus
appeared to give the correct answer, despite being past end-of-string.

When fetching into or pushing from a shallow repository, we want to

Teach pack-objects a --shallow option to indicate that we're pushing
from or fetching into a shallow repository. Use
--objects-edge-aggressive only for shallow repositories and otherwise
use --objects-edge, which performs better in the general case. Update

To figure out the author ident for a commit, we call
determine_author_info(). This function collects information
from the environment, other commits (in the case of
"--amend" or "-c/-C"), and the "--author" option. It then
uses fmt_ident to generate the final ident string that goes
into the commit object. fmt_ident is therefore responsible
for any quality or validation checks on what is allowed to
go into a commit.
Before returning, though, we call split_ident_line on the
result, and feed the individual components to hooks via the
GIT_AUTHOR_* variables. Furthermore, we do extra validation
by feeding the split to sane_ident_split(), which is pickier
than fmt_ident (in particular, it will complain about an empty
email field). If this parsing or validation fails, we skip
updating the environment variables.
This is bad, because it means that hooks may silently see a
different ident than what we are putting into the commit. We
should drop the extra sane_ident_split checks entirely, and
take whatever fmt_ident has fed us (and what will go into
the commit object).
If parsing fails, we should actually abort here rather than
continuing (and feeding the hooks bogus data). However,
split_ident_line should never fail here. The ident was just
generated by fmt_ident, so we know that it's sane. We can
use assert_split_ident to double-check this.
Note that we also teach that assertion to check that we
found a date (it always should, but until now, no caller
cared whether we found a date or not). Checking the return
value of sane_ident_split is enough to ensure we have the
name/email pointers set, and checking date_begin is enough
to know that all of the date/tz variables are set.

When we generate the commit-message template, we try to
report an author or committer ident that will be of interest
to the user: an author that does not match the committer, or
a committer that was auto-configured.
When doing so, if we encounter what we consider to be a
bogus ident, we immediately die. This is a bad idea, because
our use of the idents here is purely informational. Any
ident rules should be enforced elsewhere, because commits
that do not invoke the editor will not even hit this code
path (e.g., "git commit -mfoo" would work, but "git commit"
would not). So at best, we are redundant with other checks,
and at worse, we actively prevent commits that should
otherwise be allowed.
We should therefore do the minimal parsing we can to get a
value and not do any validation (i.e., drop the call to
sane_ident_split()).
In theory we could notice when even our minimal parsing
fails to work, and do the sane thing for each check (e.g.,
if we have an author but can't parse the committer, assume
they are different and print the author). But we can
actually simplify this even further.
We know that the author and committer strings we are parsing
have been generated by us earlier in the program, and
therefore they must be parseable. We could just call
split_ident_line without even checking its return value,
knowing that it will put _something_ in the name/mail
fields. Of course, to protect ourselves against future
changes to the code, it makes sense to turn this into an
assert, so we are not surprised if our assumption fails.

"<newvalue>" at all (not even zeros), the code was mistakenly setting
have_old=0 (and leaving old_sha1 uninitialized). But this is
incorrect: this command is supposed to verify that the reference
doesn't exist. So in this case we really need old_sha1 to be set to
null_sha1 and have_old to be set to 1.
Moreover, since have_old was being set to zero, *no* check of the old
value was being done, so the new value of the reference was being set
unconditionally to the value in new_sha1. new_sha1, in turn, was set
to null_sha1 in the expectation that that was the old value and it
shouldn't be changed. But because the precondition was not being
checked, the result was that the reference was being deleted
unconditionally.
So, if <oldvalue> is missing, set have_old unconditionally and set
old_sha1 to null_sha1.

-f/--force is the standard way to force an action, and is used by branch
for the recreation of existing branches, but not for deleting unmerged
branches nor for renaming to an existing branch.
Make "-m -f" equivalent to "-M" and "-d -f" equivalent to" -D", i.e.
allow -f/--force to be used with -m/-d also.
For the list modes, "-f" is simply ignored.
