Commit 9e8ecea (Add 'merge' mode to 'git reset', 2008-12-01) disallowed
"git reset --merge" when there was unmerged entries. But it wished if
unmerged entries were reset as if --hard (instead of --merge) has been
used. This makes sense because all "mergy" operations makes sure that
any path involved in the merge does not have local modifications before
starting, so resetting such a path away won't lose any information.
The previous commit changed the behavior of --merge to accept resetting
unmerged entries if they are reset to a different state than HEAD, but it
did not reset the changes in the work tree, leaving the conflict markers
in the resulting file in the work tree.
Fix it by doing three things:
- Update the documentation to match the wish of original "reset --merge"
better, namely, "An unmerged entry is a sign that the path didn't have
any local modification and can be safely resetted to whatever the new
HEAD records";
- Update read_index_unmerged(), which reads the index file into the cache
while dropping any higher-stage entries down to stage #0, not to copy
the object name from the higher stage entry. The code used to take the
object name from the a stage entry ("base" if you happened to have
stage #1, or "ours" if both sides added, etc.), which essentially meant
that you are getting random results depending on what the merge did.
The _only_ reason we want to keep a previously unmerged entry in the
index at stage #0 is so that we don't forget the fact that we have
corresponding file in the work tree in order to be able to remove it
when the tree we are resetting to does not have the path. In order to
differentiate such an entry from ordinary cache entry, the cache entry
added by read_index_unmerged() is marked as CE_CONFLICTED.
- Update merged_entry() and deleted_entry() so that they pay attention to
cache entries marked as CE_CONFLICTED. They are previously unmerged
entries, and the files in the work tree that correspond to them are
resetted away by oneway_merge() to the version from the tree we are
resetting to.

This patch makes "reset_index_file()" call "unpack_trees()" directly
instead of forking and execing "git read-tree". So the code is more
efficient.
And it's also easier to see which unpack_tree() options will be used,
as we don't need to follow "git read-tree"'s command line parsing
which is quite complex.
As Daniel Barkalow found, there is a difference between this new
version and the old one. The old version gives an error for
"git reset --merge" with unmerged entries, and the new version does
not when we reset the entries to some states that differ from HEAD.
Instead, it resets the index entry and succeeds, while leaving the
conflict markers in the corresponding file in the work tree (which
will be corrected by the next patch).
The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project:

Users might prefer to have git-difftool use a different
tool when run from a Git GUI.
This teaches git-difftool to honor 'diff.guitool' when
the '--gui' option is specified. This allows users to
configure their preferred command-line diff tool in
'diff.tool' and a GUI diff tool in 'diff.guitool'.

If a difftool test has an error then running the git test suite
may end up invoking a GUI diff tool. We now guard against this
by setting a difftool.bogus-tool.cmd variable.
The tests already used --tool=bogus-tool in various places so
this is simply ensuring that nothing ever falls back and
finds a real diff tool.

Many callsites run "sh -c $CMD" to run $CMD. We can make it
a little simpler for them by factoring out the munging of
argv.
For simple cases with no arguments, this doesn't help much, but:
1. For cases with arguments, we save the caller from
having to build the appropriate shell snippet.
2. We can later optimize to avoid the shell when
there are no metacharacters in the program.

Starting from commit 8db35596, "git remote update" (with no
group name given) will fail with the following message if
remotes.default has been set in the config file:
fatal: 'default' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
The problem is that the --multiple option is not passed to
"git fetch" if no remote or group name is given on the command
line. Fix the problem by always passing the --multiple
option to "git fetch" (which actually simplifies the code).

The Gitosis single-account Git/ssh hosting system runs git commands
through git-shell after confirming that the connecting user is
authorized to access the requested repository. This works well for
upload-pack and receive-pack, which take a repository argument through
git-shell. This doesn't work so well for `cvs server', which is passed
through literally, with no arguments. Allowing arguments risks
sneaking in `--export-all', so that restriction should be maintained.
Despite that, passing a repository root is necessary for per-user
access control by the hosting software, and passing a base path
improves usability without weakening security. Thus, git-cvsserver
needs to come up with these values at runtime by some other
means. Since git-shell preserves the environment for other purposes,
the environment can carry these arguments as well.
Thus, modify git-cvsserver to read $GIT_CVSSERVER_{BASE_PATH,ROOT} in
the absence of equivalent command line arguments.

When a branch is marked to merge with another ref (e.g. local 'next' that

When running a "git reset --mixed" in a bare repository, the
message displayed is something like:
fatal: This operation must be run in a work tree
fatal: Could not reset index file to revision 'HEAD^'.
This message is a little bit misleading because a mixed reset is
ok in a git directory, so it is not absolutely needed to run it in
a work tree.
So this patch improves upon the above by changing the message to:
fatal: mixed reset is not allowed in a bare repository
And if "git reset" is ever sped up by using unpack_tree() directly
(instead of execing "git read-tree"), this patch will also make
sure that a mixed reset is still disallowed in a bare repository.

Commit 952dfc6 tried to tighten the safety valves for doing
a "reset --hard" in a bare repository or outside the work
tree, but accidentally broke the case for GIT_WORK_TREE.
This patch unbreaks it.
Most git commands which need a work tree simply use
NEED_WORK_TREE in git.c to die before they get to their
cmd_* function. Reset, however, only needs a work tree in
some cases, and so must handle the work tree itself. The
error that 952dfc6 made was to simply forbid certain
operations if the work tree was not set up; instead, we need
to do the same thing that NEED_WORK_TREE does, which is to
call setup_work_tree(). We no longer have to worry about dying
in the non-worktree case, as setup_work_tree handles that
for us.
