"git config --get-color" did not parse its command line arguments
carefully.
* jk/colors-fix:
t4026: test "normal" color
config: fix parsing of "git config --get-color some.key -1"
docs: describe ANSI 256-color mode
Most of git-config's command line options use OPT_BIT to
choose an action, and then parse the non-option arguments
in a context-dependent way. However, --get-color and
--get-colorbool are unlike the rest of the options, in that
they are OPT_STRING, taking the option name as a parameter.
This generally works, because we then use the presence of
those strings to set an action bit anyway. But it does mean
that the option-parser will continue looking for options
even after the key (because it is not a non-option; it is an
argument to an option). And running:
git config --get-color some.key -1
(to use "-1" as the default color spec) will barf, claiming
that "-1" is not an option. Instead, we should treat
--get-color and --get-colorbool as action bits, just like
--add, --get, and all the other actions, and then check that
the non-option arguments we got are sane. This fixes the
weirdness above, and makes those two options like all the
others.
This "fixes" a test in t4026, which checked that feeding
"-2" as a color should fail (it does fail, but prior to this
patch, because parseopt barfed, not because we actually ever
tried to parse the color).
This also catches other errors, like:
git config --get-color some.key black blue
which previously silently ignored "blue" (and now will
complain that you gave too many arguments).
There are some possible regressions, though. We now disallow
these, which currently do what you would expect:
# specifying other options after the action
git config --get-color some.key --file whatever
# using long-arg syntax
git config --get-color=some.key
However, we have never advertised these in the
documentation, and in fact they did not work in some older
versions of git. The behavior was apparently switched as an
accidental side effect of d64ec16 (git config: reorganize to
use parseopt, 2009-02-21).

Originally the color-parsing function was used only for
config variables. It made sense to pass the variable name so
that the die() message could be something like:
$ git -c color.branch.plain=bogus branch
fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable 'color.branch.plain'
These days we call it in other contexts, and the resulting
error messages are a little confusing:
$ git log --pretty='%C(bogus)'
fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable '--pretty format'
$ git config --get-color foo.bar bogus
fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable 'command line'
This patch teaches color_parse to complain only about the
value, and then return an error code. Config callers can
then propagate that up to the config parser, which mentions
the variable name. Other callers can provide a custom
message. After this patch these three cases now look like:
$ git -c color.branch.plain=bogus branch
error: invalid color value: bogus
fatal: unable to parse 'color.branch.plain' from command-line config
$ git log --pretty='%C(bogus)'
error: invalid color value: bogus
fatal: unable to parse --pretty format
$ git config --get-color foo.bar bogus
error: invalid color value: bogus
fatal: unable to parse default color value

Start "git config --edit --global" from a skeletal per-user

and we try something like, "git config --add foo.baz roll", Git will
segfault. Moreover, for "git config --add foo.bar roll", it will
overwrite the original value instead of appending after the existing
empty value.
The problem lies with the regexp used for simulating --add in
`git_config_set_multivar_in_file()`, "^$", which in ideal case should
not match with any string but is true for empty strings. Instead use a
regexp like "a^" which can not be true for any string, empty or not.
For removing the segfault add a check for NULL values in `matches()` in

"git config" did not provide a way to set or access numbers larger
than a native "int" on the platform; it now provides 64-bit signed
integers on all platforms.

http.c: fix parsing of http.sslCertPasswordProtected variable
When you run "git config --int", the maximum size of integer
you get depends on how git was compiled, and what it
considers to be an "int".
This is almost useful, because your scripts calling "git
config" will behave similarly to git internally. But relying
on this is dubious; you have to actually know how git treats
each value internally (e.g., int versus unsigned long),
which is not documented and is subject to change. And even
if you know it is "unsigned long", we do not have a
git-config option to match that behavior.
Furthermore, you may simply be asking git to store a value
on your behalf (e.g., configuration for a hook). In that
case, the relevant range check has nothing at all to do with
git, but rather with whatever scripting tools you are using
(and git has no way of knowing what the appropriate range is
there).
Not only is the range check useless, but it is actively
harmful, as there is no way at all for scripts to look
at config variables with large values. For instance, one
cannot reliably get the value of pack.packSizeLimit via
git-config. On an LP64 system, git happily uses a 64-bit
"unsigned long" internally to represent the value, but the
script cannot read any value over 2G.
Ideally, the "--int" option would simply represent an
arbitrarily large integer. For practical purposes, however,
a 64-bit integer is large enough, and is much easier to
implement (and if somebody overflows it, we will still
notice the problem, and not simply return garbage).

Using the same urlmatch_config_entry() infrastructure, add a new

for the "virtual" two-level variables customized for the specific
URL.
git config [--<type>] --get-urlmatch <section>[.<key>] <url>
With <section>.<key> fully specified, the configuration data for
<section>.<urlpattern>.<key> for <urlpattern> that best matches the
given <url> is sought (and if not found, <section>.<key> is used)
and reported. For example, with this configuration:
[http]
sslVerify
[http "https://weak.example.com"]
cookieFile = /tmp/cookie.txt
sslVerify = false
You would get
$ git config --bool --get-urlmatch http.sslVerify https://good.example.com
true
$ git config --bool --get-urlmatch http.sslVerify https://weak.example.com
false
With only <section> specified, you can get a list of all variables
in the section with their values that apply to the given URL. E.g
$ git config --get-urlmatch http https://weak.example.com
http.cookiefile /tmp/cookie.txt
http.sslverify false

Flip the default for color.ui to 'auto', which is what many
tutorials recommend new users to do.
* mm/color-auto-default:
make color.ui default to 'auto'
config: refactor management of color.ui's default value
Most users seem to like having colors enabled, and colors can help
beginners to understand the output of some commands (e.g. notice
immediately the boundary between commits in the output of "git log").
Many tutorials tell the users to set color.ui=auto as a very first step,
which tend to indicate that color.ui=none is not the recommanded value,
hence should not be the default.
These tutorials would benefit from skipping this step and starting the
real Git manipulations earlier. Other beginners do not know about
color.ui=auto, and may not discover it by themselves, hence live with
black&white outputs while they may have preferred colors.
A few people (e.g. color-blind) prefer having no colors, but they can
easily set color.ui=never for this (and googling "disable colors in git"
already tells them how to do so), but this needs not occupy space in
beginner-oriented documentations.
A transition period with Git emitting a warning when color.ui is unset
would be possible, but the discomfort of having the warning seems
superior to the benefit: users may be surprised by the change, but not
harmed by it.
The default value is changed, and the documentation is reworded to
mention "color.ui=false" first, since the primary use of color.ui after
this change is to disable colors, not to enable it.

The changes v1.7.12.1~2^2~4 (config: warn on inaccessible files,
2012-08-21) and v1.8.1.1~22^2~2 (config: treat user and xdg config
permission problems as errors, 2012-10-13) were intended to prevent
important configuration (think "[transfer] fsckobjects") from being
ignored when the configuration is unintentionally unreadable (for
example with EIO on a flaky filesystem, or with ENOMEM due to a DoS
attack). Usually ~/.gitconfig and ~/.config/git are readable by the
current user, and if they aren't then it would be easy to fix those
permissions, so the damage from adding this check should have been
minimal.
Unfortunately the access() check often trips when git is being run as
a server. A daemon (such as inetd or git-daemon) starts as "root",
creates a listening socket, and then drops privileges, meaning that
when git commands are invoked they cannot access $HOME and die with
fatal: unable to access '/root/.config/git/config': Permission denied
Any patch to fix this would have one of three problems:
1. We annoy sysadmins who need to take an extra step to handle HOME
when dropping privileges (the current behavior, or any other
proposal that they have to opt into).
2. We annoy sysadmins who want to set HOME when dropping privileges,
either by making what they want to do impossible, or making them
set an extra variable or option to accomplish what used to work
(e.g., a patch to git-daemon to set HOME when --user is passed).
3. We loosen the check, so some cases which might be noteworthy are
not caught.
This patch is of type (3).
Treat user and xdg configuration that are inaccessible due to
permissions (EACCES) as though no user configuration was provided at
all.
An alternative method would be to check if $HOME is readable, but that
would not help in cases where the user who dropped privileges had a
globally readable HOME with only .config or .gitconfig being private.
This does not change the behavior when /etc/gitconfig or .git/config
is unreadable (since those are more serious configuration errors),
nor when ~/.gitconfig or ~/.config/git is unreadable due to problems
other than permissions.

The git-config command has always implemented its own file
lookup and parsing order. This was necessary because its
duplicate-entry handling did not match the way git's
internal callbacks worked. Now that this is no longer the
case, we are free to reuse the existing parsing code.
This saves us a few lines of code, but most importantly, it
means that the logic for which files are examined is
contained only in one place and cannot diverge.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
If git-config is asked for a single value, it will complain
and exit with an error if it finds multiple instances of
that value. This is unlike the usual internal config
parsing, however, which will generally overwrite previous
values, leaving only the final one. For example:
[set a multivar]
$ git config user.email one@example.com
$ git config --add user.email two@example.com
[use the internal parser to fetch it]
$ git var GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT
Your Name <two@example.com> ...
[use git-config to fetch it]
$ git config user.email
one@example.com
error: More than one value for the key user.email: two@example.com
This overwriting behavior is critical for the regular
parser, which starts with the lowest-priority file (e.g.,
/etc/gitconfig) and proceeds to the highest-priority file
($GIT_DIR/config). Overwriting yields the highest priority
value at the end.
Git-config solves this problem by implementing its own
parsing. It goes from highest to lowest priorty, but does
not proceed to the next file if it has seen a value.
So in practice, this distinction never mattered much,
because it only triggered for values in the same file. And
there was not much point in doing that; the real value is in
overwriting values from lower-priority files.
However, this changed with the implementation of config
include files. Now we might see an include overriding a
value from the parent file, which is a sensible thing to do,
but git-config will flag as a duplication.
This patch drops the duplicate detection for git-config and
switches to a pure-overwrite model (for the single case;
--get-all can still be used if callers want to do something
more fancy).
As is shown by the modifications to the test suite, this is
a user-visible change in behavior. An alternative would be
to just change the include case, but this is much cleaner
for a few reasons:
1. If you change the include case, then to what? If you
just stop parsing includes after getting a value, then
you will get a _different_ answer than the regular
config parser (you'll get the first value instead of
the last value). So you'd want to implement overwrite
semantics anyway.
2. Even though it is a change in behavior for git-config,
it is bringing us in line with what the internal
parsers already do.
3. The file-order reimplementation is the only thing
keeping us from sharing more code with the internal
config parser, which will help keep differences to a
minimum.
Going under the assumption that the primary purpose of
git-config is to behave identically to how git's internal
parsing works, this change can be seen as a bug-fix.

This is a refactor that will allow us to more easily tweak
the behavior for multi-valued variables, and it will
ultimately allow us to remove a lot git-config's custom code

more in memory for the --get-all case, but in practice it is

cluttering $HOME with many per-application configuration files.
In the order of reading, this file comes between the global
configuration file (typically $HOME/.gitconfig) and the system wide
configuration file (typically /etc/gitconfig).
We do not write to this new location (yet).
If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is either not set or empty, $HOME/.config/git/config
will be used. This is in line with XDG specification.
If the new file does not exist, the behavior is unchanged.

v1.7.9-8-g270a344 (config: stop using config_exclusive_filename) replaced
config_exclusive_filename with given_config_file. In one case this
resulted in a self-assignment, which is reported by clang as a warning.
Remove the useless code.
