6d2c4619a5 Merge branch 'en/merge-recursive-icase-removal'
The code internal to the recursive merge strategy was not fully
prepared to see a path that is renamed to try overwriting another
path that is only different in case on case insensitive systems.
This does not matter in the current code, but will start to matter
once the rename detection logic starts taking hints from nearby
paths moving to some directory and moves a new path along with them.

644eb60bd0 builtin/describe.c: describe a blob
Sometimes users are given a hash of an object and they want to
identify it further (ex.: Use verify-pack to find the largest blobs,
but what are these? or [1])

When describing commits, we try to anchor them to tags or refs, as these
are conceptually on a higher level than the commit. And if there is no ref
or tag that matches exactly, we're out of luck.  So we employ a heuristic
to make up a name for the commit. These names are ambiguous, there might
be different tags or refs to anchor to, and there might be different
path in the DAG to travel to arrive at the commit precisely.

When describing a blob, we want to describe the blob from a higher layer
as well, which is a tuple of (commit, deep/path) as the tree objects
involved are rather uninteresting.  The same blob can be referenced by
multiple commits, so how we decide which commit to use?  This patch
implements a rather naive approach on this: As there are no back pointers
from blobs to commits in which the blob occurs, we'll start walking from
any tips available, listing the blobs in-order of the commit and once we
found the blob, we'll take the first commit that listed the blob. For
example

  git describe --tags v0.99:Makefile
  conversion-901-g7672db20c2:Makefile

tells us the Makefile as it was in v0.99 was introduced in commit 7672db20.

The walking is performed in reverse order to show the introduction of a
blob rather than its last occurrence.

c6342e0525 Doc/check-ref-format: clarify information about @{-N} syntax
When the N-th previous thing checked out syntax (@{-N}) is used
with '--branch' option of check-ref-format the result may not be
the name of a branch that currently exists or ever existed. This
is because @{-N} is used to refer to the N-th last checked out
"thing", which might be a commit object name if the previous check
out was a detached HEAD state; or a branch name, otherwise. The
documentation thus does a wrong thing by promoting it as the
"previous branch syntax".

State that @{-N} is the syntax for specifying "N-th last thing
checked out" and also state that the result of using @{-N} might
also result in an commit object name.

b4f61b7fa4 p7519: improve check for prerequisite WATCHMAN
The return code of command -v with a non-existing command is 1 in bash
and 127 in dash.  Use that return code directly to allow the script to
work with dash and without watchman (e.g. on Debian).

While at it stop redirecting the output.  stderr is redirected to
/dev/null by test_lazy_prereq already, and stdout can actually be
useful -- the path of the found watchman executable is sent there, but
it's shown only if the script was run with --verbose.

77eac3f89a imap-send: URI encode server folder
When trying to send a patch using 'imap-send' with 'curl' and the
following configuration:

[imap]
	folder = "[Gmail]/Drafts"
	host = imaps://imap.gmail.com
	port = 993
	sslverify = false

results in the following error,

    curl_easy_perform() failed: URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL

This is a consequence of not URI-encoding the folder portion of
the URL which contains characters such as '[' which are not
allowed in a URI. According to RFC3986, these characters should be
URI-encoded.

So, URI-encode the folder before adding it to the URI to ensure it doesn't
contain characters that aren't allowed in a URI.

ed32b788c0 version --build-options: report commit, too, if possible
In particular when local tags are used (or tags that are pushed to some
fork) to build Git, it is very hard to figure out from which particular
revision a particular Git executable was built. It gets worse when those
tags are deleted, or even updated.

Let's just report an exact, unabbreviated commit name in our build
options.

We need to be careful, though, to report when the current commit cannot
be determined, e.g. when building from a tarball without any associated
Git repository. This could be the case also when extracting Git's source
code into an unrelated Git worktree.

e967ca3847 transport: make transport vtable more private
Move the definition of the transport-specific functions provided by
transports, whether declared in transport.c or transport-helper.c, into
an internal header. This means that transport-using code (as opposed to
transport-declaring code) can no longer access these functions (without
importing the internal header themselves), making it clear that they
should use the transport_*() functions instead, and also allowing the
interface between the transport mechanism and an individual transport to
independently evolve.

This is superficially a reversal of commit 824d5776c3 ("Refactor
struct transport_ops inlined into struct transport", 2007-09-19).
However, the scope of the involved variables was neither affected nor
discussed in that commit, and I think that the advantages in making
those functions more private outweigh the advantages described in that
commit's commit message. A minor additional point is that the code has
gotten more complicated since then, in that the function-pointer
variables are potentially mutated twice (once initially and once if
transport_take_over() is invoked), increasing the value of corralling
them into their own struct.

245abe34ac clone, fetch: remove redundant transport check
Prior to commit a2d725b7bd ("Use an external program to implement

get_refs_list and fetch methods in struct transport might not be
populated, hence the checks in clone and fetch. After that commit, all
transports populate get_refs_list and fetch, making the checks in clone
and fetch redundant. Remove those checks.

bf9d7df950 t/lib-git-svn.sh: improve svnserve tests with parallel make test
Setting SVNSERVE_PORT enables several tests which require a local
svnserve daemon to be run (in t9113 & t9126).  The tests share setup of
the local svnserve via `start_svnserve()`.  The function uses svnserve's
`--listen-once` option, which causes svnserve to accept one connection
on the port, serve it, and exit.  When running the tests in parallel
this fails if one test tries to start svnserve while the other is still
running.

Use the test number as the svnserve port (similar to httpd tests) to
avoid port conflicts.  Developers can set GIT_TEST_SVNSERVE to any value
other than 'false' or 'auto' to enable these tests.

4f26366679 travis-ci: use 'set -x' in 'ci/*' scripts for extra tracing output
While the build logic was embedded in our '.travis.yml', Travis CI
used to produce a nice trace log including all commands executed in

code into dedicated scripts, 2017-09-10), however, we only see the
name of the dedicated scripts, but not what those scripts are actually
doing, resulting in a less useful trace log.  A patch later in this
series will move setting environment variables from '.travis.yml' to
the 'ci/*' scripts, so not even those will be included in the trace
log.

Use 'set -x' in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', which is sourced in most other
'ci/*' scripts, so we get trace log about the commands executed in all
of those scripts.

a1157b76eb travis-ci: set GIT_TEST_HTTPD in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'
Commit 657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI code into dedicated
scripts, 2017-09-10) converted '.travis.yml's default 'before_install'
scriptlet to the 'ci/install-dependencies.sh' script, and while doing
so moved setting GIT_TEST_HTTPD=YesPlease for the 64-bit GCC and Clang
Linux build jobs to that script.  This is wrong for two reasons:

 - The purpose of that script is, as its name suggests, to install
   dependencies, not to set any environment variables influencing
   which tests should be run (though, arguably, this was already an
   issue with the original 'before_install' scriptlet).

 - Setting the variable has no effect anymore, because that script is
   run in a separate shell process, and the variable won't be visible
   in any of the other scripts, notably in 'ci/run-tests.sh'
   responsible for, well, running the tests.

Luckily, this didn't have a negative effect on our Travis CI build
jobs, because GIT_TEST_HTTPD is a tri-state variable defaulting to
"auto" and a functioning web server was installed in those Linux build
jobs, so the httpd tests were run anyway.

Apparently the httpd tests run just fine without GIT_TEST_HTTPD being
set, therefore we could simply remove this environment variable.
However, if a bug were to creep in to change the Travis CI build
environment to run the tests as root or to not install Apache, then
the httpd tests would be skipped and the build job would still
succeed.  We would only notice if someone actually were to look
through the build job's trace log; but who would look at the trace log
of a successful build job?!

Since httpd tests are important, we do want to run them and we want to
be loudly reminded if they can't be run.  Therefore, move setting
GIT_TEST_HTTPD=YesPlease for the 64-bit GCC and Clang Linux build jobs
to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh' to ensure that the build job fails when the
httpd tests can't be run.  (We could set it in 'ci/run-tests.sh' just
as well, but it's better to keep all environment variables in one
place in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'.)

e3371e9260 travis-ci: move setting environment variables to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'
Our '.travis.yml's 'env.global' section sets a bunch of environment
variables for all build jobs, though none of them actually affects all
build jobs.  It's convenient for us, and in most cases it works just
fine, because irrelevant environment variables are simply ignored.

However, $GIT_SKIP_TESTS is an exception: it tells the test harness to
skip the two test scripts that are prone to occasional failures on
OSX, but as it's set for all build jobs those tests are not run in any
of the build jobs that are capable to run them reliably, either.

Therefore $GIT_SKIP_TESTS should only be set in the OSX build jobs,
but those build jobs are included in the build matrix implicitly (i.e.
by combining the matrix keys 'os' and 'compiler'), and there is no way
to set an environment variable only for a subset of those implicit
build jobs.  (Unless we were to add new scriptlets to '.travis.yml',
which is exactly the opposite direction that we took with commit
657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI code into dedicated scripts,
2017-09-10)).

So move setting $GIT_SKIP_TESTS to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', where it can
trivially be set only for the OSX build jobs.

Furthermore, move setting all other environment variables from
'.travis.yml' to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', too, because a couple of
environment variables are already set there, and this way all
environment variables will be set in the same place.  All the logic
controlling our builds is already in the 'ci/*' scripts anyway, so
there is really no good reason to keep the environment variables
separately.

bf427a9451 travis-ci: introduce a $jobname variable for 'ci/*' scripts
A couple of 'ci/*' scripts are shared between different build jobs:
'ci/lib-travisci.sh', being a common library, is sourced from almost
every script, while 'ci/install-dependencies.sh', 'ci/run-build.sh'
and 'ci/run-tests.sh' are shared between the "regular" GCC and Clang
Linux and OSX build jobs, and the latter two scripts are used in the
GETTEXT_POISON Linux build job as well.

Our builds could benefit from these shared scripts being able to
easily tell which build job they are taking part in.  Now, it's
already quite easy to tell apart Linux vs OSX and GCC vs Clang build
jobs, but it gets trickier with all the additional Linux-based build
jobs included explicitly in the build matrix.

Unfortunately, Travis CI doesn't provide much help in this regard.
The closest we've got is the $TRAVIS_JOB_NUMBER variable, the value of
which is two dot-separated integers, where the second integer
indicates a particular build job.  While it would be possible to use
that second number to identify the build job in our shared scripts, it
doesn't seem like a good idea to rely on that:

  - Though the build job numbering sequence seems to be stable so far,
    Travis CI's documentation doesn't explicitly states that it is
    indeed stable and will remain so in the future.  And even if it
    were stable,

  - if we were to remove or insert a build job in the middle, then the
    job numbers of all subsequent build jobs would change accordingly.

So roll our own means of simple build job identification and introduce
the $jobname environment variable in our builds, setting it in the
environments of the explicitly included jobs in '.travis.yml', while
constructing one in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh' as the combination of the OS
and compiler name for the GCC and Clang Linux and OSX build jobs.  Use
$jobname instead of $TRAVIS_OS_NAME in scripts taking different
actions based on the OS and build job (when installing P4 and Git LFS
dependencies and including them in $PATH).  The following two patches
will also rely on $jobname.
