git-grep has always disallowed grepping in a tree (as
opposed to the working directory) with both --untracked
and --no-index. But we traditionally did so by first
collecting the revs, and then complaining when any were
provided.
The --no-index option recently learned to detect revs
much earlier. This has two user-visible effects:
- we don't bother to resolve revision names at all. So
when there's a rev/path ambiguity, we always choose to
treat it as a path.
- likewise, when you do specify a revision without "--",
the error you get is "no such path" and not "--untracked
cannot be used with revs".
The rationale for doing this with --no-index is that it is
meant to be used outside a repository, and so parsing revs
at all does not make sense.
This patch gives --untracked the same treatment. While it
_is_ meant to be used in a repository, it is explicitly
about grepping the non-repository contents. Telling the user
"we found a rev, but you are not allowed to use revs" is
not really helpful compared to "we treated your argument as
a path, and could not find it".

To push from or fetch to the current repository, remote helpers need
to know what repository that is. Accordingly, Git sets the GIT_DIR
environment variable to the path to the current repository when
invoking remote helpers.
There is a special case it does not handle: "git ls-remote" and "git
archive --remote" can be run to inspect a remote repository without
being run from any local repository. GIT_DIR is not useful in this
scenario:
- if we are not in a repository, we don't need to set GIT_DIR to
override an existing GIT_DIR value from the environment. If GIT_DIR
is present then we would be in a repository if it were valid and
would have called die() if it weren't.
- not setting GIT_DIR may cause a helper to do the usual discovery
walk to find the repository. But we know we're not in one, or we
would have found it ourselves. So in the worst case it may expend
a little extra effort to try to find a repository and fail (for
example, remote-curl would do this to try to find repository-level
configuration).
So leave GIT_DIR unset in this case. This makes GIT_DIR easier to
understand for remote helper authors and makes transport code less of
a special case for repository discovery.

The "git ls-remote" command can be run outside of a
repository, but needs to look up configured remotes. The
config code is smart enough to handle this case itself, but
we also check the historical "branches" and "remotes" paths
in $GIT_DIR. The git_path() function causes us to blindly
look at ".git/remotes", even if we know we aren't in a git
repository.
For now, this is just an unlikely bug (you probably don't
have such a file if you're not in a repository), but it will
become more obvious once we merge b1ef400ee (setup_git_env:
avoid blind fall-back to ".git", 2016-10-20):
[now]
$ git ls-remote
fatal: No remote configured to list refs from.
[with b1ef400ee]
$ git ls-remote
fatal: BUG: setup_git_env called without repository
We can fix this by skipping these sources entirely when
we're outside of a repository.
The test is a little more complex than the demonstration
above. Rather than detect the correct behavior by parsing
the error message, we can actually set up a case where the
remote name we give is a valid repository, but b1ef400ee
would cause us to die in the configuration step.
This test doesn't fail now, but it future-proofs us for the
b1ef400ee change.

We disallow the use of revisions with --no-index, but we
don't actually check and complain until well after we've
parsed the revisions.
This is the cause of a few problems:
1. We shouldn't be calling get_sha1() at all when we aren't
in a repository, as it might access the ref or object
databases. For now, this should generally just return
failure, but eventually it will become a BUG().
2. When there's a "--" disambiguator and you're outside a
repository, we'll complain early with "unable to resolve
revision". But we can give a much more specific error.
3. When there isn't a "--" disambiguator, we still do the
normal rev/path checks. This is silly, as we know we
cannot have any revs with --no-index. Everything we see
must be a path.
Outside of a repository this doesn't matter (since we
know it won't resolve), but inside one, we may complain
unnecessarily if a filename happens to also match a
refname.
This patch skips the get_sha1() call entirely in the
no-index case, and behaves as if it failed (with the
exception of giving a better error message).

If we see "git grep pattern rev -- file" then we apply the
usual rev/pathspec disambiguation rules: any "rev" before
the "--" must be a revision, and we do not need to apply the
verify_non_filename() check.
But there are two bugs here:
1. We keep a seen_dashdash flag to handle this case, but
we set it in the same left-to-right pass over the
arguments in which we parse "rev".
So when we see "rev", we do not yet know that there is
a "--", and we mistakenly complain if there is a
matching file.
We can fix this by making a preliminary pass over the
arguments to find the "--", and only then checking the rev
arguments.
2. If we can't resolve "rev" but there isn't a dashdash,
that's OK. We treat it like a path, and complain later
if it doesn't exist.
But if there _is_ a dashdash, then we know it must be a
rev, and should treat it as such, complaining if it
does not resolve. The current code instead ignores it
and tries to treat it like a path.
This patch fixes both bugs, and tries to comment the parsing
flow a bit better.
It adds tests that cover the two bugs, but also some related
situations (which already worked, but this confirms that our
fixes did not break anything).

We loop over the arguments, but every branch of the loop
hits either a "continue" or a "break". Surely we can make
this simpler.
The final conditional is:
if (arg is a rev) {
... handle rev ...
continue;
}
break;
We can rewrite this as:
if (arg is not a rev)
break;
... handle rev ...
That makes the flow a little bit simpler, and will make
things much easier to follow when we add more logic in

When running a command of the form
git grep --no-index pattern -- path
in the absence of a Git repository, an error message will be printed:
fatal: BUG: setup_git_env called without repository
This is because "git grep" tries to interpret "--" as a rev. "git grep"
has always tried to first interpret "--" as a rev for at least a few
years, but this issue was upgraded from a pessimization to a bug in
commit 59332d1 ("Resurrect "git grep --no-index"", 2010-02-06), which
calls get_sha1 regardless of whether --no-index was specified. This bug
appeared to be benign until commit b1ef400 ("setup_git_env: avoid blind
fall-back to ".git"", 2016-10-20) when Git was taught to die in this
situation. (This "git grep" bug appears to be one of the bugs that
commit b1ef400 is meant to flush out.)
Therefore, always interpret "--" as signaling the end of options,
instead of trying to interpret it as a rev first.

Originally, we set up the threads for grep before parsing
the non-option arguments. In 53b8d931b (grep: disable
threading in non-worktree case, 2011-12-12), the thread code
got bumped lower in the function because it now needed to
know whether we got any revision arguments.
That put a big block of code in between the parsing of revs
and the parsing of pathspecs, both of which share some loop
variables. That makes it harder to read the code than the
original, where the shared loops were right next to each
other.
Let's bump the thread initialization until after all of the

A server can end up in a state where there are lots of unreferenced
loose objects (say, because many users are doing a bunch of rebasing
and pushing their rebased branches). Running "git gc --auto" in
this state would cause a gc.log file to be created, preventing
future auto gcs, causing pack files to pile up. Since many git
operations are O(n) in the number of pack files, this would lead to
poor performance.
Git should never get itself into a state where it refuses to do any
maintenance, just because at some point some piece of the maintenance
didn't make progress.
Teach Git to ignore gc.log files which are older than (by default)
one day old, which can be tweaked via the gc.logExpiry configuration
variable. That way, these pack files will get cleaned up, if
necessary, at least once per day. And operators who find a need for
more-frequent gcs can adjust gc.logExpiry to meet their needs.
There is also some cleanup: a successful manual gc, or a
warning-free auto gc with an old log file, will remove any old
gc.log files.
It might still happen that manual intervention is required
(e.g. because the repo is corrupt), but at the very least it won't
be because Git is too dumb to try again.

The documentation gives an example of the submodule foreach
command that uses both backticks and single-quotes. We stick
the whole thing inside "+" markers to make it monospace, but
the inside punctuation still needs escaping. We handle the
backticks with "{backtick}", and use backslash-escaping for
the single-quotes.
But we missed the escaping on the second quote. Fortunately,
asciidoc renders this unbalanced quote as we want (showing
the quote), but asciidoctor does not. We could fix it by
adding the missing backslash.
However, let's take a step back. Even when rendered
correctly, it's hard to read a long command stuck into the
middle of a paragraph, and the important punctuation is hard
to notice. Let's instead bump it into its own single-line
code block. That makes both the source and the rendered
result more readable, and as a bonus we don't have to worry
about quoting at all.

dd33e07766 ("connect: Add the envvar GIT_SSH_VARIANT and ssh.variant
config", 2017-02-01) attempted to add support for configuration and
environment variable to override the different handling of
port_option and needs_batch settings suitable for variants of the
ssh implementation that was autodetected by looking at the ssh
command name. Because it piggybacked on the code that turns command
name to specific override (e.g. "plink.exe" and "plink" means
port_option needs to be set to 'P' instead of the default 'p'), yet
it defined a separate namespace for these overrides (e.g. "putty"
can be usable to signal that port_option needs to be 'P'), however,
it made the auto-detection based on the command name less robust
(e.g. the code now accepts "putty" as a SSH command name and applies
the same override).
Separate the code that interprets the override that was read from
the configuration & environment from the original code that handles
the command names, as they are in separate namespaces, to fix this
confusion.
This incidentally also makes it easier for future enhancement of the
override syntax (e.g. "port_option=p,needs_batch=1" may want to be
accepted as a more explicit syntax) without affecting the code for
auto-detection based on the command name.
While at it, update the return type of the handle_ssh_variant()
helper function to void; the caller does not use it, and the
function does not return any meaningful value.
