When we are determining the list of refs to fetch via
fetch-pack, we have two sets of refs to compare: those on
the remote side, and a "match" list of things we want to
fetch. We iterate through the remote refs alphabetically,
seeing if each one is wanted by the "match" list.
Since def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack",
2005-07-04), we have used the "path_match" function to do a
suffix match, where a remote ref is considered wanted if
any of the "match" elements is a suffix of the remote
refname.
This enables callers of fetch-pack to specify unqualified
refs and have them matched up with remote refs (e.g., ask
for "A" and get remote's "refs/heads/A"). However, if you
provide a fully qualified ref, then there are corner cases
where we provide the wrong answer. For example, given a
remote with two refs:
refs/foo/refs/heads/master
refs/heads/master
asking for "refs/heads/master" will first match
"refs/foo/refs/heads/master" by the suffix rule, and we will
erroneously fetch it instead of refs/heads/master.
As it turns out, all callers of fetch_pack do provide
fully-qualified refs for the match list. There are two ways
fetch_pack can get match lists:
1. Through the transport code (i.e., via git-fetch)
2. On the command-line of git-fetch-pack
In the first case, we will always be providing the names of
fully-qualified refs from "struct ref" objects. We will have
pre-matched those ref objects already (since we have to
handle more advanced matching, like wildcard refspecs), and
are just providing a list of the refs whose objects we need.
In the second case, users could in theory be providing
non-qualified refs on the command-line. However, the
fetch-pack documentation claims that refs should be fully
qualified (and has always done so since it was written in
2005).
Let's change this path_match call to simply check for string
equality, matching what the callers of fetch_pack are
expecting.

The get_remote_heads function reads the list of remote refs
during git protocol session. It dates all the way back to
def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack", 2005-07-04).
At that time, the idea was to come up with a list of refs we
were interested in, and then filter the list as we got it
from the remote side.
Later, 1baaae5 (Make maximal use of the remote refs,
2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.
As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

When a user asks us to force a mv and overwrite the

use would be:
$ git mv one two
fatal: destination exists, source=one, destination=two
$ git mv -f one two

When we try to "git mv" over an existing file, the error
message is fairly informative:
$ git mv one two
fatal: destination exists, source=one, destination=two
When the user forces the overwrite, we give a warning:
$ git mv -f one two
warning: destination exists; will overwrite!
This is less informative, but still sufficient in the simple
rename case, as there is only one rename happening.
But when moving files from one directory to another, it
becomes useless:
$ mkdir three
$ touch one two three/one
$ git add .
$ git mv one two three
fatal: destination exists, source=one, destination=three/one
$ git mv -f one two three
warning: destination exists; will overwrite!
The first message is helpful, but the second one gives us no
clue about what was overwritten. Let's mention the name of
the destination file:
$ git mv -f one two three
warning: overwriting 'three/one'

As v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~4 (2011-08-04) explains, git cherry-pick removes
the sequencer state just before applying the final patch. In the
single-pick case, that was a good thing, since --abort and --continue
work fine without access to such state and removing it provides a
signal that git should not complain about the need to clobber it ("a
cherry-pick or revert is already in progress") in sequences like the
following:
git cherry-pick foo
git read-tree -m -u HEAD; # forget that; let's try a different one
git cherry-pick bar
After the recent patch "allow single-pick in the middle of cherry-pick
sequence" we don't need that hack any more. In the new regime, a
traditional "git cherry-pick <commit>" command never looks at
.git/sequencer, so we do not need to cripple "git cherry-pick
<commit>..<commit>" for it any more.
So now you can run "git cherry-pick --abort" near the end of a
multi-pick sequence and it will abort the entire sequence, instead of
misbehaving and aborting just the final commit.

Since 7e2bfd3f (revert: allow cherry-picking more than one commit,
2010-07-02), the pick/revert machinery has kept track of the set of
commits to be cherry-picked or reverted using commit_argc and
commit_argv variables, storing the corresponding command-line
parameters.
Future callers as other commands are built in (am, rebase, sequencer)
may find it easier to pass rev-list options to this machinery in
already-parsed form. Teach cmd_cherry_pick and cmd_revert to parse
the rev-list arguments in advance and pass the commit set to
pick_revisions() as a rev_info structure.

When "git cherry-pick ..bar" encounters conflicts, permit the operator
to use cherry-pick --continue after resolving them as a shortcut for
"git commit && git cherry-pick --continue" to record the resolution
and carry on with the rest of the sequence.
This improves the analogy with "git rebase" (in olden days --continue
was the way to preserve authorship when a rebase encountered
conflicts) and fits well with a general UI goal of making "git cmd
--continue" save humans the trouble of deciding what to do next.
Example: after encountering a conflict from running "git cherry-pick
foo bar baz":
CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in main.c
error: could not apply f78a8d98c... bar!
hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths
hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
hint: and commit the result with 'git commit'
We edit main.c to resolve the conflict, mark it acceptable with "git
add main.c", and can run "cherry-pick --continue" to resume the
sequence.
$ git cherry-pick --continue
[editor opens to confirm commit message]
[master 78c8a8c98] bar!
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
[master 87ca8798c] baz!
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
This is done for both codepaths to pick multiple commits and a single
commit.

If you try to "git mv" multiple files onto another
non-directory file, you confusingly get the "usage" message:
$ touch one two three
$ git add .
$ git mv one two three
usage: git mv [options] <source>... <destination>
[...]
From the user's perspective, that makes no sense. They just
gave parameters that exactly match that usage!
This behavior dates back to the original C version of "git
mv", which had a usage message like:
usage: git mv (<source> <destination> | <source>... <destination>)
This was slightly less confusing, because it at least
mentions that there are two ways to invoke (but it still
isn't clear why what the user provided doesn't work).
Instead, let's show an error message like:
$ git mv one two three
fatal: destination 'three' is not a directory
We could leave the usage message in place, too, but it
doesn't actually help here. It contains no hints that there
are two forms, nor that multi-file form requires that the
endpoint be a directory. So it just becomes useless noise
that distracts from the real error.

When git apply is passed something that is not a patch, it does not produce
an error message or exit with a non-zero status if it was not actually
"applying" the patch i.e. --check or --numstat etc were supplied on the
command line.
Fix this by producing an error when apply fails to find any hunks whatsoever
while parsing the patch.
This will cause some of the output formats (--numstat, --diffstat, etc) to
produce an error when they formerly would have reported zero changes and
exited successfully. That seems like the correct behavior though. Failure
to recognize the input as a patch should be an error.
Plus, add a test.

The "git cherry-pick --abort" command currently renames the
.git/sequencer directory to .git/sequencer-old instead of removing it
on success due to an accident. cherry-pick --abort is designed to
work in three steps:
1) find which commit to roll back to
2) call "git reset --merge <commit>" to move to that commit
3) remove the .git/sequencer directory
But the careless author forgot step 3 entirely. The only reason the
command worked anyway is that "git reset --merge <commit>" renames the
.git/sequencer directory as a secondary effect --- after moving to
<commit>, or so the logic goes, it is unlikely but possible that the
caller of git reset wants to continue the series of cherry-picks that
was in progress, so git renames the sequencer state to
.git/sequencer-old to be helpful while allowing the cherry-pick to be
resumed if the caller did not want to end the sequence after all.
By running "git cherry-pick --abort", the operator has clearly
indicated that she is not planning to continue cherry-picking. Remove
the (renamed) .git/sequencer directory as intended all along.

When conflicts are encountered while reverting a commit, it can be
handy to have the name of that commit easily available. For example,
to produce a copy of the patch to refer to while resolving conflicts:
$ git revert 2eceb2a8
error: could not revert 2eceb2a8... awesome, buggy feature
$ git show -R REVERT_HEAD >the-patch
$ edit $(git diff --name-only)
Set a REVERT_HEAD pseudoref when "git revert" does not make a commit,
for cases like this. This also makes it possible for scripts to
distinguish between a revert that encountered conflicts and other
sources of an unmerged index.
After successfully committing, resetting with "git reset", or moving
to another commit with "git checkout" or "git reset", the pseudoref is
no longer useful, so remove it.
