1c5e94f459 tests: use 'test_must_be_empty' instead of 'test_cmp <empty> <out>'
Using 'test_must_be_empty' is shorter and more idiomatic than

  >empty &&
  test_cmp empty out

as it saves the creation of an empty file.  Furthermore, sometimes the
expected empty file doesn't have such a descriptive name like 'empty',
and its creation is far away from the place where it's finally used
for comparison (e.g. in 't7600-merge.sh', where two expected empty
files are created in the 'setup' test, but are used only about 500
lines later).

These cases were found by instrumenting 'test_cmp' to error out the
test script when it's used to compare empty files, and then converted
manually.

Note that even after this patch there still remain a lot of cases
where we use 'test_cmp' to check empty files:

  - Sometimes the expected output is not hard-coded in the test, but
    'test_cmp' is used to ensure that two similar git commands produce
    the same output, and that output happens to be empty, e.g. the
    test 'submodule update --merge  - ignores --merge  for new
    submodules' in 't7406-submodule-update.sh'.

  - Repetitive common tasks, including preparing the expected results
    and running 'test_cmp', are often extracted into a helper
    function, and some of this helper's callsites expect no output.

  - For the same reason as above, the whole 'test_expect_success'
    block is within a helper function, e.g. in 't3070-wildmatch.sh'.

  - Or 'test_cmp' is invoked in a loop, e.g. the test 'cvs update
    (-p)' in 't9400-git-cvsserver-server.sh'.

28b68216de Merge branch 'jc/check-attr-honor-working-tree'
"git check-attr" when (trying to) work on a repository with a
working tree did not work well when the working tree was specified
via --work-tree (and obviously with --git-dir).

The command also works in a bare repository but it reads from the
(possibly stale, irrelevant and/or nonexistent) index, which may
need to be fixed to read from HEAD, but that is a completely
separate issue.  As a related tangent to this separate issue, we
may want to also fix "check-ignore", which refuses to work in a
bare repository, to also operate in a bare one.

cdbf623254 check-attr: move to the top of working tree when in non-bare repository
Lasse Makholm noticed that running "git check-attr" from a place
totally unrelated to $GIT_DIR and $GIT_WORK_TREE does not give
expected results.  I think it is because the command does not say it
wants to call setup_work_tree().

We still need to support use cases where only a bare repository is
involved, so unconditionally requiring a working tree would not work
well.  Instead, make a call only in a non-bare repository.

We may want to see if we want to do a similar fix in the opposite
direction to check-ignore.  The command unconditionally requires a
working tree, but it should be usable in a bare repository just like
check-attr attempts to be.

Moving to some other directory and letting the remainder of the test
pieces to expect that they start there is a bad practice.  The test
that contains chdir itself may fail (or by mistake skipped via the
GIT_SKIP_TESTS mechanism) in which case the remainder may operate on

8b1bd02415 Make !pattern in .gitattributes non-fatal
Before 82dce99 (attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore,
2012-10-15), .gitattributes did not have any special treatment of a
leading '!'.  The docs, however, always said

  The rules how the pattern matches paths are the same as in
  `.gitignore` files; see linkgit:gitignore[5].

By those rules, leading '!' means pattern negation.  So 82dce99
correctly determined that this kind of line makes no sense and should
be disallowed.

However, users who actually had a rule for files starting with a '!'
are in a bad position: before 82dce99 '!' matched that literal
character, so it is conceivable that users have .gitattributes with
such lines in them.  After 82dce99 the unescaped version was
disallowed in such a way that git outright refuses to run(!) most
commands in the presence of such a .gitattributes.  It therefore
becomes very hard to fix, let alone work with, such repositories.

Let's at least allow the users to fix their repos: change the fatal
error into a warning.

82dce998c2 attr: more matching optimizations from .gitignore
.gitattributes and .gitignore share the same pattern syntax but has
separate matching implementation. Over the years, ignore's
implementation accumulates more optimizations while attr's stays the
same.

This patch reuses the core matching functions that are also used by
excluded_from_list. excluded_from_list and path_matches can't be
merged due to differences in exclude and attr, for example:

* "!pattern" syntax is forbidden in .gitattributes.  As an attribute
  can be unset (i.e. set to a special value "false") or made back to
  unspecified (i.e. not even set to "false"), "!pattern attr" is unclear
  which one it means.

* we support attaching attributes to directories, but git-core
  internally does not currently make use of attributes on
  directories.

1afca44495 attr: don't confuse prefixes with leading directories
When we prepare the attribute stack for a lookup on a path,
we start with the cached stack from the previous lookup
(because it is common to do several lookups in the same
directory hierarchy). So the first thing we must do in
preparing the stack is to pop any entries that point to
directories we are no longer interested in.

For example, if our stack contains gitattributes for:

  foo/bar/baz
  foo/bar
  foo

but we want to do a lookup in "foo/bar/bleep", then we want
to pop the top element, but retain the others.

To do this we walk down the stack from the top, popping
elements that do not match our lookup directory. However,
the test do this simply checked strncmp, meaning we would
mistake "foo/bar/baz" as a leading directory of
"foo/bar/baz_plus". We must also check that the character
after our match is '/', meaning we matched the whole path
component.

There are two special cases to consider:

  1. The top of our attr stack has the empty path. So we
     must not check for '/', but rather special-case the
     empty path, which always matches.

  2. Typically when matching paths in this way, you would
     also need to check for a full string match (i.e., the
     character after is '\0'). We don't need to do so in
     this case, though, because our path string is actually
     just the directory component of the path to a file
     (i.e., we know that it terminates with "/", because the
     filename comes after that).

6eba6210d9 attr.c: respect core.ignorecase when matching attribute patterns
When core.ignorecase is true, the file globs configured in the
.gitattributes file should be matched case-insensitively against the paths
in the working directory.  Let's do so.

Plus, add some tests.

The last set of tests is performed only on a case-insensitive filesystem.
Those tests make sure that git handles the case where the .gitignore file
resides in a subdirectory and the user supplies a path that does not match
the case in the filesystem.  In that case^H^H^H^Hsituation, part of the
path supplied by the user is effectively interpreted case-insensitively,
and part of it is dependent on the setting of core.ignorecase.  git will
currently only match the portion of the path below the directory holding
the .gitignore file according to the setting of core.ignorecase.

This is also partly future-proofing.  Currently, git builds the attr stack
based on the path supplied by the user, so we don't have to do anything
special (like use strcmp_icase) to handle the parts of that path that don't
match the filesystem with respect to case.  If git instead built the attr
stack by scanning the repository, then the paths in the origin field would
not necessarily match the paths supplied by the user.  If someone makes a
change like that in the future, these tests will notice.

f5114a40c0 git-check-attr: Normalize paths
Normalize the path arguments (relative to the working tree root, if
applicable) before looking up their attributes.  This requires passing
the prefix down the call chain.

This fixes two test cases for different reasons:

* "unnormalized paths" is fixed because the .gitattribute-file-seeking
  code is not confused into reading the top-level file twice.

* "relative paths" is fixed because the canonical pathnames are passed
  to get_check_attr() or get_all_attrs(), allowing them to match the
  pathname patterns as expected.

2d35d556e2 Ignore .gitattributes in bare repositories
Attributes can be specified at three different places: the internal
table of default values, the file $GIT_DIR/info/attributes and files
named .gitattributes in the work tree.  Since bare repositories don't
have a work tree, git should ignore any .gitattributes files there.

This patch makes git do that, so the only way left for a user to specify
attributes in a bare repository is the file info/attributes (in addition
to changing the defaults and recompiling).

In addition, git-check-attr is now allowed to run without a work tree.
Like any user of the code in attr.c, it ignores the .gitattributes files
when run in a bare repository.  It can still read from info/attributes.

82ebb0b6ec add test_cmp function for test scripts
Many scripts compare actual and expected output using
"diff -u". This is nicer than "cmp" because the output shows
how the two differ. However, not all versions of diff
understand -u, leading to unnecessary test failure.

This adds a test_cmp function to the test scripts and
switches all "diff -u" invocations to use it. The function
uses the contents of "$GIT_TEST_CMP" to compare its
arguments; the default is "diff -u".

On systems with a less-capable diff, you can do:

  GIT_TEST_CMP=cmp make test

cf94ccda35 gitattributes: fix relative path matching
There was an embarrassing pair of off-by-one miscounting that
failed to match path "a/b/c" when "a/.gitattributes" tried to
name it with relative path "b/c".

This fixes it.
