189d035e67 git mv: do not keep slash in git mv dir non-existing-dir/
When calling `rename("dir", "non-existing-dir/")` on Linux, it silently
succeeds, stripping the trailing slash of the second argument.

This is all good and dandy but this behavior disagrees with the specs at

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/rename.html

that state clearly regarding the 2nd parameter (called `new`):

	If the `new` argument does not resolve to an existing directory
	entry for a file of type directory and the `new` argument
	contains at least one non- <slash> character and ends with one
	or more trailing <slash> characters after all symbolic links
	have been processed, `rename()` shall fail.

Of course, we would like `git mv dir non-existing-dir/` to succeed (and
rename the directory "dir" to "non-existing-dir"). Let's be extra
careful to remove the trailing slash in that case.

This lets t7001-mv.sh pass in Bash on Windows.

c6c9e1885c nedmalloc: work around overzealous GCC 6 warning
With GCC 6, the strdup() function is declared with the "nonnull"
attribute, stating that it is not allowed to pass a NULL value as
parameter.

In nedmalloc()'s reimplementation of strdup(), Postel's Law is heeded
and NULL parameters are handled gracefully. GCC 6 complains about that
now because it thinks that NULL cannot be passed to strdup() anyway.

Because the callers in this project of strdup() must be prepared to
call any implementation of strdup() supplied by the platform, so it
is pointless to pretend that it is OK to call it with NULL.

Remove the conditional based on NULL-ness of the input; this
squelches the warning.  Check the return value of malloc() instead
to make sure we actually got the memory to write to.

See https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/porting_to.html for details.

9eed4f3711 t5533: make it pass on case-sensitive filesystems
The newly-added test case wants to commit a file "c.t" (note the lower
case) when a previous test case already committed a file "C.t". This
confuses Git to the point that it thinks "c.t" was not staged when "git
add c.t" was called.

Simply make the naming of the test commits consistent with the previous
test cases: use upper-case, and advance in the alphabet.

This came up in local work to rebase the Windows-specific patches to the
current `next` branch. An identical fix was suggested by John Keeping.

6b7728db81 t7063: work around FreeBSD's lazy mtime update feature
Let's start with the commit message of [1] from freebsd.git [2]

    Sync timestamp changes for inodes of special files to disk as late
    as possible (when the inode is reclaimed).  Temporarily only do
    this if option UFS_LAZYMOD configured and softupdates aren't
    enabled.  UFS_LAZYMOD is intentionally left out of
    /sys/conf/options.

    This is mainly to avoid almost useless disk i/o on battery powered
    machines.  It's silly to write to disk (on the next sync or when
    the inode becomes inactive) just because someone hit a key or
    something wrote to the screen or /dev/null.

    PR:             5577 [3]

The short version of that, in the context of t7063, is that when a
directory is updated, its mtime may be updated later, not
immediately. This can be shown with a simple command sequence

    date; sleep 1; touch abc; rm abc; sleep 10; ls -lTd .

One would expect that the date shown in `ls` would be one second from
`date`, but it's 10 seconds later. If we put another `ls -lTd .` in
front of `sleep 10`, then the date of the last `ls` comes as
expected. The first `ls` somehow forces mtime to be updated.

t7063 is really sensitive to directory mtime. When mtime is too "new",
git code suspects racy timestamps and will not trigger the shortcut in
untracked cache, in t7063.24 and eventually be detected in t7063.27

We have two options thanks to this special FreeBSD feature:

1) Stop supporting untracked cache on FreeBSD. Skip t7063 entirely
   when running on FreeBSD

2) Work around this problem (using the same 'ls' trick) and continue
   to support untracked cache on FreeBSD

I initially wanted to go with 1) because I didn't know the exact
nature of this feature and feared that it would make untracked cache
work unreliably, using the cached version when it should not.

Since the behavior of this thing is clearer now. The picture is not
that bad. If this indeed happens often, untracked cache would assume
racy condition more often and _fall back_ to non-untracked cache code
paths. Which means it may be less effective, but it will not show
wrong things.

This patch goes with option 2.

PS. For those who want to look further in FreeBSD source code, this
flag is now called IN_LAZYMOD. I can see it's effective in ext2 and
ufs. zfs is not affected.

04e0869876 import-tars: support hard links
Previously, we simply treated hard links as if they were plain files
with size 0, ignoring the link type "1" and hence the link target.

What we should do instead, of course, is to use the link target to get
at the import mark for the contents, even if we cannot recreate the hard
link per se, as Git has no concept of hard links.

54956df9bc t4130: work around Windows limitation
On Windows, it is already pretty expensive to try to recreate the stat()
data that Git assumes is cheap to obtain. To make things halfway decent
in performance, we even have to skip emulating the inode and to
determine the number of hard links.

This is not a huge problem, usually, as either the size or the mtime or
the ctime are tell-tale enough to say when a file has changed, and even
if not, those changes are typically made after the index file was
written, triggering a rehashing of the files' contents.

The t4130-apply-criss-cross-rename test case, however, requires the
inode to determine that files of equal size were swapped, as renaming
files does not update their mtime. Every once in a while, t4130 fails
on Windows because of this missing piece.

Equal file sizes are not crucial for the test cases, however. Hence,
generate files with different sizes so that there is some property that
the swapped files can be discovered reliably even on Windows.

54ba5a1a16 hashmap: clarify that hashmap_entry can safely be discarded
The API documentation said that the hashmap_entry structure to be
embedded in the caller's structure is to be treated as opaque, which
left the reader wondering if it can safely be discarded when it no
longer is necessary.  If the hashmap_entry structure had references
to external resources such as allocated memory or an open file
descriptor, merely free(3)ing the containing structure (when the
caller's structure is on the heap) or letting it go out of scope
(when it is on the stack) would end up leaking the external
resource.

Document that there is no need for hashmap_entry_clear() that
corresponds to hashmap_entry_init() to give the API users a little
bit of peace of mind.

4d9c7e6f45 am: reset cached ident date for each patch
When we compute the date to go in author/committer lines of
commits, or tagger lines of tags, we get the current date
once and then cache it for the rest of the program.  This is
a good thing in some cases, like "git commit", because it
means we do not racily assign different times to the
author/committer fields of a single commit object.

But as more programs start to make many commits in a single
process (e.g., the recently builtin "git am"), it means that
you'll get long strings of commits with identical committer
timestamps (whereas before, we invoked "git commit" many
times and got true timestamps).

This patch addresses it by letting callers reset the cached
time, which means they'll get a fresh time on their next
call to git_committer_info() or git_author_info(). The first
caller to do so is "git am", which resets the time for each
patch it applies.

It would be nice if we could just do this automatically
before filling in the ident fields of commit and tag
objects. Unfortunately, it's hard to know where a particular
logical operation begins and ends.

For instance, if commit_tree_extended() were to call
reset_ident_date() before getting the committer/author
ident, that doesn't quite work; sometimes the author info is
passed in to us as a parameter, and it may or may not have
come from a previous call to ident_default_date(). So in
those cases, we lose the property that the committer and the
author timestamp always match.

You could similarly put a date-reset at the end of
commit_tree_extended(). That actually works in the current
code base, but it's fragile. It makes the assumption that
after commit_tree_extended() finishes, the caller has no
other operations that would logically want to fall into the
same timestamp.

So instead we provide the tool to easily do the reset, and
let the high-level callers use it to annotate their own
logical operations.

There's no automated test, because it would be inherently
racy (it depends on whether the program takes multiple
seconds to run). But you can see the effect with something
like:

  # make a fake 100-patch series
  top=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
  bottom=$(git rev-list --first-parent -100 HEAD | tail -n 1)
  git log --format=email --reverse --first-parent \
          --binary -m -p $bottom..$top >patch

  # now apply it; this presumably takes multiple seconds
  git checkout --detach $bottom
  git am <patch

  # now count the number of distinct committer times;
  # prior to this patch, there would only be one, but
  # now we'd typically see several.
  git log --format=%ct $bottom.. | sort -u

442f6fd3d6 date: clarify --date=raw description
"... in the internal raw Git format `%s %z` format." was clunky in
repeating "format" twice, and would not have helped those who do not
immediately get that these are strftime(3) conversion specifiers.

Explain them with words, and demote the mention of `%s %z` to a
hint to help those who know them.

642833db78 date: add "unix" format
We already have "--date=raw", which is a Unix epoch
timestamp plus a contextual timezone (either the author's or
the local). But one may not care about the timezone and just
want the epoch timestamp by itself. It's not hard to parse
the two apart, but if you are using a pretty-print format,
you may want git to show the "finished" form that the user
will see.

We can accomodate this by adding a new date format, "unix",
which is basically "raw" without the timezone.

1a2a1e8eb9 date: document and test "raw-local" mode
The "raw" format shows a Unix epoch timestamp, but with a
timezone tacked on. The timestamp is not _in_ that zone, but
it is extra information about the time (by default, the zone
the author was in).

The documentation claims that "raw-local" does not work. It
does, but the end result is rather subtle. Let's describe it
in better detail, and test to make sure it works (namely,
the epoch time doesn't change, but the zone does).

While we are rewording the documentation in this area, let's
not use the phrase "does not work" for the remaining option,
"--date=relative". It's vague; do we accept it or not? We do
accept it, but it has no effect (which is a reasonable
outcome). We should also refer to the option not as
"--relative" (which is the historical synonym, and does not
take "-local" at all), but as "--date=relative".

9d1ca1dac0 t4205: indent here documents
Our usual style in the test scripts is to indent here
documents with tabs, and use "<<-" to strip the tabs. The
result is easier to read.

This old test script did not do so in its inception, and
further tests added onto it followed the local style. Let's
bring it in line with our usual style.

Some of the tests actually care quite a bit about
whitespace, but none of them do so at the beginning of the
line (because they use things like qz_to_tab_space to avoid
depending on the literal whitespace), so we can do a fairly
mechanical conversion.

Most of the here-docs also use interpolation, so they have
been left as "<<-EOF". In a few cases, though, where
interpolation was not in use, I've converted them to
"<<-\EOF" to match our usual "don't interpolate unless you
need to" style.

1bd37509ca t4205: drop top-level &&-chaining
The test currently does something like:

  do_one() &&
  do_two() &&
  test_expect_success ...

We generally avoid performing actions at the top-level of
the script (outside of a test_expect block) for two reasons:

  1. The test harness is not checking and reporting if they
     fail.

  2. Their output is not handled correctly (not hidden by
     default, nor shown with "-v").

Using &&-chains seems like it should help with (1), but it
doesn't. If either of the commands fails, we simply skip
running the follow-on test entirely, and the test harness
has no idea.

We can fix this by pushing that setup into its own block.
It _could_ go into the following test block, but since the
result in this case is used by multiple tests, it's more
clear to mark it explicitly as a distinct setup step.

0f12c7d4d1 subtree: fix "git subtree split --rejoin"
"git merge" in v2.9 prevents merging unrelated histories.

"git subtree split --rejoin" creates unrelated histories when
creating a split repo from a raw sub-directory that did not
originate from an invocation of "git subtree add".

Restore the original behavior by passing --allow-unrelated-histories
when merging subtrees.  This ensures that the synthetic history
created by "git subtree split" can be merged.

Add a test to ensure that this feature works as advertised.

64ac39af70 push: allow pushing new branches with --force-with-lease
If there is no upstream information for a branch, it is likely that it
is newly created and can safely be pushed under the normal fast-forward
rules.  Relax the --force-with-lease check so that we do not reject
these branches immediately but rather attempt to push them as new
branches, using the null SHA-1 as the expected value.

In fact, it is already possible to push new branches using the explicit
--force-with-lease=<branch>:<expect> syntax, so all we do here is make
this behaviour the default if no explicit "expect" value is specified.

eee98e74f9 push: add shorthand for --force-with-lease branch creation
Allow the empty string to stand in for the null SHA-1 when pushing a new
branch, like we do when deleting branches.

This means that the following command ensures that `new-branch` is
created on the remote (that is, is must not already exist):

	git push --force-with-lease=new-branch: origin new-branch
