1cb3ed308d Merge branch 'jk/notes-merge-from-anywhere'
"git notes merge" used to limit the source of the merged notes tree
to somewhere under refs/notes/ hierarchy, which was too limiting
when inventing a workflow to exchange notes with remote
repositories using remote-tracking notes trees (located in e.g.
refs/remote-notes/ or somesuch).

b3715b7522 notes: allow merging from arbitrary references
Create a new expansion function, expand_loose_notes_ref which will first
check whether the ref can be found using get_sha1. If it can't be found
then it will fallback to using expand_notes_ref. The content of the
strbuf will not be changed if the notes ref can be located using
get_sha1. Otherwise, it may be updated as done by expand_notes_ref.

Since we now support merging from non-notes refs, remove the test case
associated with that behavior. Add a test case for merging from a
non-notes ref.

8f309aeb82 strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()
The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago.  No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.

By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason.  Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.

This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them.  The changes contained in this patch are:

 * introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]

 * mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
   either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
   respective thin wrapper.

After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller.  An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

ee76f92fe8 notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref
init_notes() is the main point of entry to the notes API. It ensures
that the input can be used as ref, because it needs a ref to update to
store notes tree after modifying it.

There however are many use cases where notes tree is only read, e.g.
"git log --notes=...".  Any notes-shaped treeish could be used for such
purpose, but it is not allowed due to existing restriction.

Allow treeish expressions to be used in the case the notes tree is going
to be used without write "permissions".  Add a flag to distinguish
whether the notes tree is intended to be used read-only, or will be
updated.

With this change, operations that use notes read-only can be fed any
notes-shaped tree-ish can be used, e.g. git log --notes=notes@{1}.

63af4a8446 strbuf: make stripspace() part of strbuf
This function is also used in other builtins than stripspace, so it
makes sense to have it in a more generic place.  Since it operates
on an strbuf and the function is declared in strbuf.h, move it to
strbuf.c and add the corresponding prefix to its name, just like
other API functions in the strbuf_* family.

Also switch all current users of stripspace() to the new function
name and keep a temporary wrapper inline function for any topic
branches still using stripspace().

4f655e22b7 notes: teach git-notes about notes.<name>.mergeStrategy option
Teach notes about a new "notes.<name>.mergeStrategy" option for
configuring the notes merge strategy when merging into
refs/notes/<name>. This option allows for the selection of merge
strategy for particular notes refs, rather than all notes ref merges, as
user may not want cat_sort_uniq for all refs, but only some. Note that
the <name> is the local reference we are merging into, not the remote
ref we merged from. The assumption is that users will mostly want to
configure separate local ref merge strategies rather than strategies
depending on which remote ref they merge from.

notes.<name>.mergeStrategy overrides the general behavior as it is more
specific.

d73a5b933d builtin/notes: add --allow-empty, to allow storing empty notes
Although the "git notes" man page advertises that we support binary-safe
notes addition (using the -C option), we currently do not support adding
the empty note (i.e. using the empty blob to annotate an object). Instead,
an empty note is always treated as an intent to remove the note
altogether.

Introduce the --allow-empty option to the add/append/edit subcommands,
to explicitly allow an empty note to be stored into the notes tree.

Also update the documentation, and add test cases for the new option.

52694cdabb builtin/notes: split create_note() to clarify add vs. remove logic
create_note() has a non-trivial interface, and comprises three loosely
related parts:

 1. launching the editor with the note contents, if needed
 2. appending to an existing note, if append_only was given
 3. adding or removing the resulting note, based on whether it's non-empty

Split it along those lines to make the logic clearer: The first part
goes into a new function - prepare_note_data(), with a simpler interface.
The second part is moved into append_edit(), which is the only user of
this code. Finally, the add vs. remove decision is moved into the callers
(add() and append_edit()), keeping the logic for writing the actual note
object in a separate function: write_note_data().

Also rename write_note_data() to copy_obj_to_fd(), which more aptly

511726e4b1 builtin/notes: fix premature failure when trying to add the empty blob
This fixes a small buglet when trying to explicitly add the empty blob
as a note object using the -c or -C option to git notes add/append.
Instead of failing with a nonsensical error message indicating that the

message was given (e.g. using -m "" or -F /dev/null).

The next patch contains a test that verifies the fixed behavior.

7695d118e5 refs.c: change resolve_ref_unsafe reading argument to be a flags field
resolve_ref_unsafe takes a boolean argument for reading (a nonexistent ref
resolves successfully for writing but not for reading).  Change this to be
a flags field instead, and pass the new constant RESOLVE_REF_READING when
we want this behaviour.

While at it, swap two of the arguments in the function to put output
arguments at the end.  As a nice side effect, this ensures that we can
catch callers that were unaware of the new API so they can be audited.

Give the wrapper functions resolve_refdup and read_ref_full the same
treatment for consistency.

ce8daa1eb8 notes: disallow reusing non-blob as a note object
Currently "git notes add -C $object" will read the raw bytes from $object,
and then copy those bytes into the note object, which is hardcoded to be
of type blob. This means that if the given $object is a non-blob (e.g.
tree or commit), the raw bytes from that object is copied into a blob
object. This is probably not useful, and certainly not what any sane
user would expect. So disallow it, by erroring out if the $object passed
to the -C option is not a blob.

The fix also applies to the -c option (in which the user is prompted to
edit/verify the note contents in a text editor), and also when -c/-C is
passed to "git notes append" (which appends the $object contents to an
existing note object). In both cases, passing a non-blob $object does not
make sense.

Also add a couple of tests demonstrating expected behavior.

4741edd549 Remove deprecated OPTION_BOOLEAN for parsing arguments
As of b04ba2bb4 OPTION_BOOLEAN was deprecated.
This commit removes all occurrences of OPTION_BOOLEAN.
In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either
OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which
occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter.
So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option
in parse-options.h to make life easy.

The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref.
The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT
was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern,
so we could think of introducing OPT_NONEG_BOOL.

49c2470400 Move copy_note_for_rewrite + friends from builtin/notes.c to notes-utils.c
This is a pure code movement of the machinery for copying notes to

it was declared in builtin.h. This was more of an accident of history
than a concious design, and we now want to make this machinery more
widely available.

Hence, this patch moves the code into the new notes-utils.[hc] files
which are included into libgit.a. Except for adjusting #includes
accordingly, this patch merely moves the relevant functions verbatim
into the new files.

eff80a9fd9 Allow custom "comment char"
Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message.  Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.

The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end
users.  They have a choice between

 - Don't do it.  Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and

 - Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.

Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.

    $ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit

so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.

[jc: although I started the topic, all the tests and documentation
updates, many of the call sites of the new strbuf_add_commented_*()
functions, and the change to git-submodule.sh scripted Porcelain are
from Ralf.]

b0ff96547e Reduce translations by using same terminologies
Somewhere in help usage, we use both "message" and "msg", "command"
and "cmd", "key id" and "key-id". This patch makes all help text from
parseopt use the first form. Clearer and 3 fewer strings for
translators.

13f8b72d8c Convert commit_tree() to take strbuf as message
There wan't a way for commit_tree() to notice if the message the caller
prepared contained a NUL byte, as it did not take the length of the
message as a parameter. Use a pointer to a strbuf instead, so that we can
either choose to allow low-level plumbing commands to make commits that
contain NUL byte in its message, or forbid NUL everywhere by adding the
check in commit_tree(), in later patches.

d5a35c114a Copy resolve_ref() return value for longer use
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer. Callers that
use this value longer than a couple of statements should copy the
value to avoid some hidden resolve_ref() call that may change the
static buffer's value.

The bug found by Tony Wang <wwwjfy@gmail.com> in builtin/merge.c
demonstrates this. The first call is in cmd_merge()

branch = resolve_ref("HEAD", head_sha1, 0, &flag);

Then deep in lookup_commit_or_die() a few lines after, resolve_ref()
may be called again and destroy "branch".

lookup_commit_or_die
 lookup_commit_reference
  lookup_commit_reference_gently
   parse_object
    lookup_replace_object
     do_lookup_replace_object
      prepare_replace_object
       for_each_replace_ref
        do_for_each_ref
         get_loose_refs
          get_ref_dir
           get_ref_dir
            resolve_ref

All call sites are checked and made sure that xstrdup() is called if
the value should be saved.

2d370d2fbc notes remove: --ignore-missing
Depending on the application, it is not necessarily an error for an object
to lack a note, especially if the only thing the caller wants to make sure
is that notes are cleared for an object.  By passing this option from the
command line, the "git notes remove" command considers it a success if the
object did not have any note to begin with.

c3ab1a8e4c notes remove: allow removing more than one
While "xargs -n1 git notes rm" is certainly a possible way to remove notes
from many objects, this would create one notes "commit" per removal, which
is not quite suitable for seasonal housekeeping.

Allow taking more than one on the command line, and record their removal
as a single atomic event if everthing goes well.

Even though the old code insisted that "git notes rm" must be given only
one object (or zero, in which case it would default to HEAD), this
condition was not tested. Add tests to handle the new case where we feed
multiple objects, and also make sure if there is a bad input, no change
is recorded.
