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'.

ee76f92fe8 notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref
init_notes() is the main point of entry to the notes API. It ensures
that the input can be used as ref, because it needs a ref to update to
store notes tree after modifying it.

There however are many use cases where notes tree is only read, e.g.
"git log --notes=...".  Any notes-shaped treeish could be used for such
purpose, but it is not allowed due to existing restriction.

Allow treeish expressions to be used in the case the notes tree is going
to be used without write "permissions".  Add a flag to distinguish
whether the notes tree is intended to be used read-only, or will be
updated.

With this change, operations that use notes read-only can be fed any
notes-shaped tree-ish can be used, e.g. git log --notes=notes@{1}.

e14c92e841 notes: correct documentation of DWIMery for notes references
expand_notes_ref is used by --ref from git-notes(1) and --notes from the
git log to find the full refname of a notes reference. Previously the
documentation of these options was not clear about what sorts of
expansions would be performed. Fix the documentation to clearly and
accurately describe the behavior of the expansions.

Add a test for this expansion when using git notes get-ref in order to
prevent future patches from changing this behavior.

908a320363 t3301: modernize style
Make this test script appear somewhat less old-fashioned:

 - Use test helper functions:
    - write_script
    - test_commit
    - test_write_lines
    - test_line_count
    - test_config
    - test_unconfig
    - test_path_is_missing

 - Remove whitespace between redirection operators and their targets.

 - Move preparation of "expect" files into tests.

 - Rename "output" files to "actual".

 - More consistent quoting, especially around commands that might
   expand to nothing.

 - More visibility of important whitespace with ${indent}.

 - Combine pairs of tests that unnecessarily split setup and verification.

d73a5b933d builtin/notes: add --allow-empty, to allow storing empty notes
Although the "git notes" man page advertises that we support binary-safe
notes addition (using the -C option), we currently do not support adding
the empty note (i.e. using the empty blob to annotate an object). Instead,
an empty note is always treated as an intent to remove the note
altogether.

Introduce the --allow-empty option to the add/append/edit subcommands,
to explicitly allow an empty note to be stored into the notes tree.

Also update the documentation, and add test cases for the new option.

512477b175 tests: use "env" to run commands with temporary env-var settings
Ordinarily, we would say "VAR=VAL command" to execute a tested
command with environment variable(s) set only for that command.
This however does not work if 'command' is a shell function (most
notably 'test_must_fail'); the result of the assignment is retained
and affects later commands.

To avoid this, we used to assign and export environment variables
and run such a test in a subshell, like so:

        (
                VAR=VAL && export VAR &&
                test_must_fail git command to be tested
        )

But with "env" utility, we should be able to say:

        test_must_fail env VAR=VAL git command to be tested

which is much shorter and easier to read.

ce8daa1eb8 notes: disallow reusing non-blob as a note object
Currently "git notes add -C $object" will read the raw bytes from $object,
and then copy those bytes into the note object, which is hardcoded to be
of type blob. This means that if the given $object is a non-blob (e.g.
tree or commit), the raw bytes from that object is copied into a blob
object. This is probably not useful, and certainly not what any sane
user would expect. So disallow it, by erroring out if the $object passed
to the -C option is not a blob.

The fix also applies to the -c option (in which the user is prompted to
edit/verify the note contents in a text editor), and also when -c/-C is
passed to "git notes append" (which appends the $object contents to an
existing note object). In both cases, passing a non-blob $object does not
make sense.

Also add a couple of tests demonstrating expected behavior.

Depending on the application, it is not necessarily an error for an object
to lack a note, especially if the only thing the caller wants to make sure
is that notes are cleared for an object.  By passing this option from the
command line, the "git notes remove" command considers it a success if the
object did not have any note to begin with.

c3ab1a8e4c notes remove: allow removing more than one
While "xargs -n1 git notes rm" is certainly a possible way to remove notes
from many objects, this would create one notes "commit" per removal, which
is not quite suitable for seasonal housekeeping.

Allow taking more than one on the command line, and record their removal
as a single atomic event if everthing goes well.

Even though the old code insisted that "git notes rm" must be given only
one object (or zero, in which case it would default to HEAD), this
condition was not tested. Add tests to handle the new case where we feed
multiple objects, and also make sure if there is a bad input, no change
is recorded.

84a7e35eea Make "git notes add" more user-friendly when there are existing notes
Currently, "notes add" (without -f/--force) will abort when the given object
already has existing notes. This makes sense for the modes of "git notes add"
that would necessarily overwrite the old message (when using the -m/-F/-C/-c
options). However, when no options are given (meaning the notes are created
from scratch in the editor) it is not very user-friendly to abort on existing
notes, and forcing the user to run "git notes edit".

Instead, it is better to simply "redirect" to "git notes edit" automatically,
i.e. open the existing notes in the editor and let the user edit them.
This patch does just that.

This changes the behavior of "git notes add" without options when notes
already exist for the given object, but I doubt that many users really depend
on the previous failure from "git notes add" in this case.

7249e91287 revision.c: support --notes command-line option
We already have --show-notes, but it has a few shortcomings:

  1. Using --show-notes=<ref> implies that we should also
     show the default notes. Which means you also need to
     use --no-standard-notes if you want to suppress them.

  2. It is negated by --no-notes, which doesn't match.

  3. It's too long to type. :)

This patch introduces --notes, which behaves exactly like
--show-notes, except that using "--notes=<ref>" does not
imply showing the default notes.

d4990c4b2f notes.c: Use two newlines (instead of one) when concatenating notes
When using combine_notes_concatenate() to concatenate notes, it currently
ensures exactly one newline character between the given notes. However,
when using builtin/notes.c:create_note() to concatenate notes (e.g. by
'git notes append'), it adds a newline character to the trailing newline
of the preceding notes object, thus resulting in _two_ newlines (aka. a
blank line) separating contents of the two notes.

This patch brings combine_notes_concatenate() into consistency with
builtin/notes.c:create_note(), by ensuring exactly _two_ newline characters
between concatenated notes.

The patch also changes a few notes-related selftests accordingly.

74884b524e notes: rework subcommands and parse options
Running 'git notes copy -h' is not very helfpul right now. It lists
the options for all the git notes subcommands and is rather confusing.
Fix this by splitting cmd_notes() into separate functions for each
subcommand (besides append and edit since they're very similar) and
only providing a usage message for the subcommand.

This has an added benefit of reducing the code complexity while making
it safer and easier to read. The downside is we get some code bloat
from similar setup and teardown needed for notes and options parsing.
We also get a bit stricter in options parsing by only allowing
the ref option to come before the subcommand.

configuration for <cmd> into effect.  It will be needed to support the
copying in git-rebase.

160baa0d9c notes: implement 'git notes copy --stdin'
This implements a mass-copy command that takes a sequence of lines in
the format

  <from-sha1> SP <to-sha1> [ SP <rest> ] LF

on stdin, and copies each <from-sha1>'s notes to the <to-sha1>.  The
<rest> is ignored.  The intent, of course, is that this can read the
same input that the 'post-rewrite' hook gets.

The copy_note() function is exposed for everyone's and in particular
the next commit's use.

894a9d333e Support showing notes from more than one notes tree
With this patch, you can set notes.displayRef to a glob that points at
your favourite notes refs, e.g.,

[notes]
	displayRef = refs/notes/*

Then git-log and friends will show notes from all trees.

Thanks to Junio C Hamano for lots of feedback, which greatly
influenced the design of the entire series and this commit in
particular.

e73bbd96c6 builtin-notes: Add "copy" subcommand for copying notes between objects
This is useful for keeping notes to objects that are being rewritten by e.g.
'git commit --amend', 'git rebase', or 'git cherry-pick'.

"git notes copy <from> <to>" is in practice equivalent to
"git notes add -C $(git notes list <from>) <to>", although it is somewhat
more convenient for regular users.

"git notes copy" takes the same -f option as "git add", to overwrite existing
notes at the target (instead of aborting with an error message).

If the <from>-object has no notes, "git notes copy" will abort with an error
message.

The patch includes tests verifying correct behaviour of the new subcommand.

0691cff7dc builtin-notes: Add -c/-C options for reusing notes
Inspired by the -c/-C options to "git commit", we teach these options to
"git notes add/append" to allow reuse of note objects.

With this patch in place, it is now easy to copy or move notes between
objects. For example, to copy object A's notes to object B:
	git notes add [-f] -C $(git notes list A) B
To move instead of copying, you simply remove the notes from the source
object afterwards, e.g.:
	git notes remove A

The patch includes tests verifying correct behaviour of the new functionality.

348f199b2d builtin-notes: Refactor handling of -F option to allow combining -m and -F
By moving the -F option handling into a separate function (parse_file_arg),
we can start allowing several -F options, and mixed usage of -m and -F
options. Each -m/-F given appends to the note message, in the order they are
given on the command-line.

2347fae50b builtin-notes: Add "append" subcommand for appending to note objects
"git notes append" is equivalent to "git notes edit" except that instead
of editing existing notes contents, you can only append to it. This is
useful for quickly adding annotations like e.g.:
	git notes append -m "Acked-by: A U Thor <author@example.com>"

"git notes append" takes the same -m/-F options as "git notes add".

If there is no existing note to append to, "git notes append" is identical
to "git notes add" (i.e. it adds a new note).

The patch includes tests verifying correct behaviour of the new subcommand.

7aa4754e55 builtin-notes: Add "add" subcommand for adding notes to objects
"git notes add" is identical to "git notes edit" except that instead of
editing existing notes for a given object, you can only add notes to an
object that currently has none. If "git notes add" finds existing notes
for the given object, the addition is aborted. However, if the new
-f/--force option is used, "git notes add" will _overwrite_ the existing
notes with the new notes contents.

If there is no existing notes for the given object. "git notes add" is
identical to "git notes edit" (i.e. it adds a new note).

e397421abf builtin-notes: Add "list" subcommand for listing note objects
"git notes list" will list all note objects in the current notes ref (in the
format "<note object> <annotated object>"). "git notes list <object>" will
list the note object associated with the given <object>, or fail loudly if
the given <object> has no associated notes.

If no arguments are given to "git notes", it defaults to the "list"
subcommand. This is for pseudo-compatibility with "git tag" and "git branch".
