c2163c6aa2 add instructions on how to send patches to the mailing list with Gmail
Gmail is one of the most popular email providers in the world. Now that Gmail
supports IMAP, sending properly formatted patches via `git imap-send` is
trivial. This section in SubmittingPatches explains how to do so.

1442171bc9 fix overlapping memcpy in normalize_absolute_path
The comments for normalize_absolute_path explicitly claim
that the source and destination buffers may be the same
(though they may not otherwise overlap). Thus the call to
memcpy may involve copying overlapping data, and memmove
should be used instead.

This fixes a valgrind error in t1504.

421b488a58 pack-objects: avoid reading uninitalized data
In the main loop of find_deltas, we do:

  struct object_entry *entry = *list++;
  ...
  if (!*list_size)
	  ...
	  break

Because we look at and increment *list _before_ the check of
list_size, in the very last iteration of the loop we will
look at uninitialized data, and increment the pointer beyond
one past the end of the allocated space. Since we don't
actually do anything with the data until after the check,
this is not a problem in practice.

But since it technically violates the C standard, and
because it provokes a spurious valgrind warning, let's just
move the initialization of entry to a safe place.

This fixes valgrind errors in t5300, t5301, t5302, t303, and
t9400.

13494ed14c correct cache_entry allocation
Most cache_entry structs are allocated by using the
cache_entry_size macro, which rounds the size of the struct
up to the nearest multiple of 8 bytes (presumably to avoid
memory fragmentation).

There is one exception: the special "conflict entry" is
allocated with an empty name, and so is explicitly given
just one extra byte to hold the NUL.

However, later code doesn't realize that this particular
struct has been allocated differently, and happily tries
reading and copying it based on the ce_size macro, which
assumes the 8-byte alignment.

This can lead to reading uninitalized data, though since
that data is simply padding, there shouldn't be any problem
as a result. Still, it makes sense to hold the padding
assumption so as not to surprise later maintainers.

This fixes valgrind errors in t1005, t3030, t4002, and
t4114.

0ea9ca07aa Add --verbose|-v to test-chmtime
This allows us replace perl when getting the mtime of a file because
of time zone conversions, though at the moment only one platform which
does this has been identified: Cygwin when used with ActiveState Perl
(as usual).

The output format is:

    <mtime1> TAB <filename1> <LF>
    <mtime2> TAB <filename2> <LF>
    ...

which, if only mtime is needed can be parsed with cut(1):

    test-chmtime -v +0 filename1 | cut -f 1

Also, the change adds a description of programs features, with examples.

5610e3b031 Fix testcase failure when extended attributes are in use
06cbe855 (Make core.sharedRepository more generic, 2008-04-16) made
several testcases in t1301-shared-repo.sh which fail if on a system
which creates files with extended attributes (e.g. SELinux), since ls
appends a '+' sign to the permission set in such cases.  In fact,
POSIX.1 allows ls to add a single printable character after the usual
3x3 permission bits to show that an optional alternate/additional access
method is associated with the path.

This fixes the testcase to strip any such sign prior to verifying the
permission set.

563d5a2c84 xdiff-interface.c: strip newline (and cr) from line before pattern matching
POSIX doth sayeth:

   "In the regular expression processing described in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001,
    the <newline> is regarded as an ordinary character and both a period and
    a non-matching list can match one. ... Those utilities (like grep) that
    do not allow <newline>s to match are responsible for eliminating any
    <newline> from strings before matching against the RE."

Thus far git has not been removing the trailing newline from strings matched
against regular expression patterns. This has the effect that (quoting
Jonathan del Strother) "... a line containing just 'FUNCNAME' (terminated by
a newline) will be matched by the pattern '^(FUNCNAME.$)' but not
'^(FUNCNAME$)'", and more simply not '^FUNCNAME$'.

16b2672536 t4018-diff-funcname: rework negated last expression test
This test used the non-zero exit status of 'git diff' to indicate that a
negated funcname pattern, when placed last, was correctly rejected.

The problem with this is that 'git diff' always returns non-zero if it
finds differences in the files it is comparing, and the files must
contain differences in order to trigger the funcname pattern codepath.

Instead of checking for non-zero exit status, make sure the expected
error message is printed.

838cd34664 fix pread()'s short read in index-pack
Since v1.6.0.2~13^2~ the completion of a thin pack uses sha1write() for
its ability to compute a SHA1 on the written data.  This also provides
data buffering which, along with commit 92392b4a45, will confuse pread()
whenever an appended object is 1) freed due to memory pressure because
of the depth-first delta processing, and 2) needed again because it has
many delta children, and 3) its data is still buffered by sha1write().

Let's fix the issue by simply forcing cached data out when such an

875471c510 git-stash.sh: fix flawed fix of invalid ref handling (commit da65e7c1)
The referenced commit tried to fix a flaw in stash's handling of a user
supplied invalid ref. i.e. 'git stash apply fake_ref@{0}' should fail
instead of applying stash@{0}. But, it did so in a naive way by avoiding the
use of the --default option of rev-parse, and instead manually supplied the
default revision if the user supplied an empty command line. This prevented
a common usage scenario of supplying flags on the stash command line (i.e.
non-empty command line) which would be parsed by lower level git commands,
without supplying a specific revision. This should fall back to the default
revision, but now it causes an error. e.g. 'git stash show -p'

The correct fix is to use the --verify option of rev-parse, which fails
properly if an invalid ref is supplied, and still allows falling back to a
default ref when one is not supplied.

Convert stash-drop to use --verify while we're at it, since specifying
multiple revisions for any of these commands is also an error and --verify
makes it so.
