When switching to a different commit, we first see the named rev exists
as a commit using lookup_commit_reference_gently(), and set new.path to
a string "refs/heads/" followed by the name the user gave us (but after
taking into special short-hands like @{-1} == "previous branch" and
"@{upstream}" == "the branch we merge with" into account). If the
resulting string names an existsing ref, then we are switching to that
branch (and will be building new commits on top of it); otherwise we are
detaching HEAD at that commit.
When the "master..." syntax is used as a short-hand for "master...HEAD",
we do want to detach HEAD at the merge base. However, on Windows, when
asked if ".git/refs/heads/master..." exists, the filesystem happily says
"it does" when ".git/refs/heads/master" exists.
Work this issue around by first calling check_ref_format(new.path) to see
if the string can possibly be a valid ref under "refs/heads/", before
asking resolve_ref().
We used to run another lookup_commit_reference(rev) even though we know it
succeeded and we have a good commit in new.commit already; this has been
with us from 782c2d6 (Build in checkout, 2008-02-07), the first version we
had "git checkout" implemented in C. Drop it.

We need to update the index before hooks run when actually making a
commit, but we shouldn't have to write the index when running "status".
If we can, then we have already spent cycles to refresh the index and
it is a waste not to write it out, but it is not a disaster if we cannot
write it out. The main reason the user is running "git status" is to get
the "status", and refreshing the index is a mere side effect that we can
do without.

Previously, these variables were set before there was a chance to set
NO_CURL.
This made a difference only during 'make install', because by installing
$(REMOTE_CURL_ALIASES), the rule tries to access $(REMOTE_CURL_PRIMARY),
which was never installed. On Windows, this fails; on Unix, stale symbolic
links are created.

This gets rid of the whole tree cache refresh. Instead only path that
we touch will get refreshed. We may still lstat() more than needed,
but it'd be better playing safe.
This potentially reduces a large number of lstat() on big trees. Take
gentoo-x86 tree for example, which has roughly 80k files:

The original patch that became cfe370c (grep: do not segfault when -f is
used, 2009-10-16), was made against "maint" or newer branch back then, but
the fix addressed the issue that was present as far as in 1.6.4 series.
The maintainer backported the patch to the 1.6.4 maintenance branch, but
failed to notice that the new tests assumed the setup done by the script
in "maint", which did quite a lot more than the same test script in 1.6.4
series, and the output didn't match the expected result.
This should fix it.

parse_blob() has never actually been used; it has served simply to
avoid having a confusing gap in the API. Instead of leaving it, put in
a comment that explains what "parsing a blob" entails (making sure the

This makes "subtree" more orthogonal to the rest of recursive merge, so
that you can use subtree and ours/theirs features at the same time. For
example, you can now say:
git merge -s subtree -Xtheirs other
to merge with "other" branch while shifting it up or down to match the
shape of the tree of the current branch, and resolving conflicts favoring
the changes "other" branch made over changes made in the current branch.
It also allows the prefix used to shift the trees to be specified using
the "-Xsubtree=$prefix" option. Giving an empty prefix tells the command
to figure out how much to shift trees automatically as we have always
done. "merge -s subtree" is the same as "merge -s recursive -Xsubtree="
(or "merge -s recursive -Xsubtree").
Based on an old patch done back in the days when git-merge was a script;
Avery ported the script part to builtin-merge.c. Bugs in shift_tree()
is mine.
