When rebasing against an upstream that has had many commits since the
original branch was created:
O -- O -- ... -- O -- O (upstream)
\
-- O (my-dev-branch)
it must read the contents of every novel upstream commit, in addition to
the tip of the upstream and the merge base, because "git rebase"
attempts to exclude commits that are duplicates of upstream ones. This
can be a significant performance hit, especially in a partial clone,
wherein a read of an object may end up being a fetch.
Add a flag to "git rebase" to allow suppression of this feature. This
flag only works when using the "merge" backend.
This flag changes the behavior of sequencer_make_script(), called from
do_interactive_rebase() <- run_rebase_interactive() <-
run_specific_rebase() <- cmd_rebase(). With this flag, limit_list()
(indirectly called from sequencer_make_script() through
prepare_revision_walk()) will no longer call cherry_pick_list(), and
thus PATCHSAME is no longer set. Refraining from setting PATCHSAME both
means that the intermediate commits in upstream are no longer read (as
shown by the test) and means that no PATCHSAME-caused skipping of
commits is done by sequencer_make_script(), either directly or through
make_script_with_merges().

Commit d48e5e21da ("rebase (interactive-backend): make --keep-empty the
default", 2020-02-15) turned --keep-empty (for keeping commits which
start empty) into the default. The logic underpinning that commit was:
1) 'git commit' errors out on the creation of empty commits without an
override flag
2) Once someone determines that the override is worthwhile, it's
annoying and/or harmful to required them to take extra steps in
order to keep such commits around (and to repeat such steps with
every rebase).
While the logic on which the decision was made is sound, the result was
a bit of an overcorrection. Instead of jumping to having --keep-empty
being the default, it jumped to making --keep-empty the only available
behavior. There was a simple workaround, though, which was thought to
be good enough at the time. People could still drop commits which
started empty the same way the could drop any commits: by firing up an
interactive rebase and picking out the commits they didn't want from the
list. However, there are cases where external tools might create enough
empty commits that picking all of them out is painful. As such, having
a flag to automatically remove start-empty commits may be beneficial.
Provide users a way to drop commits which start empty using a flag that
existed for years: --no-keep-empty. Interpret --keep-empty as
countermanding any previous --no-keep-empty, but otherwise leaving
--keep-empty as the default.
This might lead to some slight weirdness since commands like
git rebase --empty=drop --keep-empty
git rebase --empty=keep --no-keep-empty
look really weird despite making perfect sense (the first will drop
commits which become empty, but keep commits that started empty; the
second will keep commits which become empty, but drop commits which
started empty). However, --no-keep-empty was named years ago and we are
predominantly keeping it for backward compatibility; also we suspect it
will only be used rarely since folks already have a simple way to drop
commits they don't want with an interactive rebase.

The default file history simplification of "git log -- <path>" or
"git rev-list -- <path>" focuses on providing the smallest set of
commits that first contributed a change. The revision walk greatly
restricts the set of walked commits by visiting only the first
TREESAME parent of a merge commit, when one exists. This means
that portions of the commit-graph are not walked, which can be a
performance benefit, but can also "hide" commits that added changes
but were ignored by a merge resolution.
The --full-history option modifies this by walking all commits and
reporting a merge commit as "interesting" if it has _any_ parent
that is not TREESAME. This tends to be an over-representation of
important commits, especially in an environment where most merge
commits are created by pull request completion.
Suppose we have a commit A and we create a commit B on top that
changes our file. When we merge the pull request, we create a merge
commit M. If no one else changed the file in the first-parent
history between M and A, then M will not be TREESAME to its first
parent, but will be TREESAME to B. Thus, the simplified history
will be "B". However, M will appear in the --full-history mode.
However, suppose that a number of topics T1, T2, ..., Tn were
created based on commits C1, C2, ..., Cn between A and M as
follows:
A----C1----C2--- ... ---Cn----M------P1---P2--- ... ---Pn
\ \ \ \ / / / /
\ \__.. \ \/ ..__T1 / Tn
\ \__.. /\ ..__T2 /
\_____________________B \____________________/
If the commits T1, T2, ... Tn did not change the file, then all of
P1 through Pn will be TREESAME to their first parent, but not
TREESAME to their second. This means that all of those merge commits
appear in the --full-history view, with edges that immediately
collapse into the lower history without introducing interesting
single-parent commits.
The --simplify-merges option was introduced to remove these extra
merge commits. By noticing that the rewritten parents are reachable
from their first parents, those edges can be simplified away. Finally,
the commits now look like single-parent commits that are TREESAME to
their "only" parent. Thus, they are removed and this issue does not
cause issues anymore. However, this also ends up removing the commit
M from the history view! Even worse, the --simplify-merges option
requires walking the entire history before returning a single result.
Many Git users are using Git alongside a Git service that provides
code storage alongside a code review tool commonly called "Pull
Requests" or "Merge Requests" against a target branch. When these
requests are accepted and merged, they typically create a merge
commit whose first parent is the previous branch tip and the second
parent is the tip of the topic branch used for the request. This
presents a valuable order to the parents, but also makes that merge
commit slightly special. Users may want to see not only which
commits changed a file, but which pull requests merged those commits
into their branch. In the previous example, this would mean the
users want to see the merge commit "M" in addition to the single-
parent commit "C".
Users are even more likely to want these merge commits when they
use pull requests to merge into a feature branch before merging that
feature branch into their trunk.
In some sense, users are asking for the "first" merge commit to
bring in the change to their branch. As long as the parent order is
consistent, this can be handled with the following rule:
Include a merge commit if it is not TREESAME to its first
parent, but is TREESAME to a later parent.
These merges look like the merge commits that would result from
running "git pull <topic>" on a main branch. Thus, the option to
show these commits is called "--show-pulls". This has the added
benefit of showing the commits created by closing a pull request or
merge request on any of the Git hosting and code review platforms.
To test these options, extend the standard test example to include
a merge commit that is not TREESAME to its first parent. It is
surprising that that option was not already in the example, as it
is instructive.
In particular, this extension demonstrates a common issue with file
history simplification. When a user resolves a merge conflict using
"-Xours" or otherwise ignoring one side of the conflict, they create
a TREESAME edge that probably should not be TREESAME. This leads
users to become frustrated and complain that "my change disappeared!"
In my experience, showing them history with --full-history and
--simplify-merges quickly reveals the problematic merge. As mentioned,
this option is expensive to compute. The --show-pulls option
_might_ show the merge commit (usually titled "resolving conflicts")
more quickly. Of course, this depends on the user having the correct
parent order, which is backwards when using "git pull master" from a
topic branch.
There are some special considerations when combining the --show-pulls
option with --simplify-merges. This requires adding a new PULL_MERGE
object flag to store the information from the initial TREESAME
comparisons. This helps avoid dropping those commits in later filters.
This is covered by a test, including how the parents can be simplified.
Since "struct object" has already ruined its 32-bit alignment by using
33 bits across parsed, type, and flags member, let's not make it worse.
PULL_MERGE is used in revision.c with the same value (1u<<15) as
REACHABLE in commit-graph.c. The REACHABLE flag is only used when
writing a commit-graph file, and a revision walk using --show-pulls
does not happen in the same process. Care must be taken in the future
to ensure this remains the case.
Update Documentation/rev-list-options.txt with significant details
around this option. This requires updating the example in the
History Simplification section to demonstrate some of the problems
with TREESAME second parents.

In rebase, one can pass the `--autostash` option to cause the worktree
to be automatically stashed before continuing with the rebase. This
option is missing in merge, however.
Implement the `--autostash` option and corresponding `merge.autoStash`
option in merge which stashes before merging and then pops after.
This option is useful when a developer has some local changes on a topic
branch but they realize that their work depends on another branch.
Previously, they had to run something like
git fetch ...
git stash push
git merge FETCH_HEAD
git stash pop
but now, that is reduced to
git fetch ...
git merge --autostash FETCH_HEAD
When an autostash is generated, it is automatically reapplied to the
worktree only in three explicit situations:
1. An incomplete merge is commit using `git commit`.
2. A merge completes successfully.
3. A merge is aborted using `git merge --abort`.
In all other situations where the merge state is removed using
remove_merge_branch_state() such as aborting a merge via
`git reset --hard`, the autostash is saved into the stash reflog
instead keeping the worktree clean.

When trying to stash part of the worktree changes by splitting a hunk
and then only partially accepting the split bits and pieces, the user
is presented with a rather cryptic error:
error: patch failed: <file>:<line>
error: test: patch does not apply
Cannot remove worktree changes
and the command would fail to stash the desired parts of the worktree
changes (even if the `stash` ref was actually updated correctly).
We even have a test case demonstrating that failure, carrying it for
four years already.
The explanation: when splitting a hunk, the changed lines are no longer
separated by more than 3 lines (which is the amount of context lines
Git's diffs use by default), but less than that. So when staging only
part of the diff hunk for stashing, the resulting diff that we want to
apply to the worktree in reverse will contain those changes to be
dropped surrounded by three context lines, but since the diff is
relative to HEAD rather than to the worktree, these context lines will
not match.
Example time. Let's assume that the file README contains these lines:
We
the
people
and the worktree added some lines so that it contains these lines
instead:
We
are
the
kind
people
and the user tries to stash the line containing "are", then the command
will internally stage this line to a temporary index file and try to
revert the diff between HEAD and that index file. The diff hunk that
`git stash` tries to revert will look somewhat like this:
@@ -1776,3 +1776,4
We
+are
the
people
It is obvious, now, that the trailing context lines overlap with the
part of the original diff hunk that the user did *not* want to stash.
Keeping in mind that context lines in diffs serve the primary purpose of
finding the exact location when the diff does not apply precisely (but
when the exact line number in the file to be patched differs from the
line number indicated in the diff), we work around this by reducing the
amount of context lines: the diff was just generated.
Note: this is not a *full* fix for the issue. Just as demonstrated in
t3701's 'add -p works with pathological context lines' test case, there
are ambiguities in the diff format. It is very rare in practice, of
course, to encounter such repeated lines.
The full solution for such cases would be to replace the approach of
generating a diff from the stash and then applying it in reverse by
emulating `git revert` (i.e. doing a 3-way merge). However, in `git
stash -p` it would not apply to `HEAD` but instead to the worktree,
which makes this non-trivial to implement as long as we also maintain a
scripted version of `add -i`.

the test script `t3904-stash-patch.sh` that demonstrated that splitting
a hunk and trying to stash only part of that split hunk fails (but
shouldn't).
As expected, it still fails, but for the wrong reason: once the bug is
fixed, we would expect stderr to show nothing, yet the regression test
expects stderr to show something.
Let's fix that by telling that regression test case to expect nothing to
be printed to stderr.
While at it, also drop the obvious left-over from debugging where the

Commit 7fbbcb21b1 ("diff: batch fetching of missing blobs", 2019-04-08)
optimized "diff" by prefetching blobs in a partial clone, but there are
some cases wherein blobs do not need to be prefetched. In these cases,
any command that uses the diff machinery will unnecessarily fetch blobs.
diffcore_std() may read blobs when it calls the following functions:
(1) diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch() (controlled by the config variable
diff.autorefreshindex)
(2) diffcore_break() and diffcore_merge_broken() (for break-rewrite
detection)
(3) diffcore_rename() (for rename detection)
(4) diffcore_pickaxe() (for detecting addition/deletion of specified
string)
Instead of always prefetching blobs, teach diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch(),
diffcore_break(), and diffcore_rename() to prefetch blobs upon the first
read of a missing object. This covers (1), (2), and (3): to cover the
rest, teach diffcore_std() to prefetch if the output type is one that
includes blob data (and hence blob data will be required later anyway),
or if it knows that (4) will be run.

We use a custom hash in fast-import to store the set of objects we've
imported so far. It has a fixed set of 2^16 buckets and chains any
collisions with a linked list. As the number of objects grows larger
than that, the load factor increases and we degrade to O(n) lookups and
O(n^2) insertions.
We can scale better by using our hashmap.c implementation, which will
resize the bucket count as we grow. This does incur an extra memory cost
of 8 bytes per object, as hashmap stores the integer hash value for each
entry in its hashmap_entry struct (which we really don't care about
here, because we're just reusing the embedded object hash). But I think
the numbers below justify this (and our per-object memory cost is
already much higher).
I also looked at using khash, but it seemed to perform slightly worse
than hashmap at all sizes, and worse even than the existing code for
small sizes. It's also awkward to use here, because we want to look up a
"struct object_entry" from a "struct object_id", and it doesn't handle
mismatched keys as well. Making a mapping of object_id to object_entry
would be more natural, but that would require pulling the embedded oid
out of the object_entry or incurring an extra 32 bytes per object.
In a synthetic test creating as many cheap, tiny objects as possible
perl -e '
my $bits = shift;
my $nr = 2**$bits;
for (my $i = 0; $i < $nr; $i++) {
print "blob\n";
print "data 4\n";
print pack("N", $i);
}
' $bits | git fast-import
I got these results:
nr_objects master khash hashmap
2^20 0m4.317s 0m5.109s 0m3.890s
2^21 0m10.204s 0m9.702s 0m7.933s
2^22 0m27.159s 0m17.911s 0m16.751s
2^23 1m19.038s 0m35.080s 0m31.963s
2^24 4m18.766s 1m10.233s 1m6.793s
which points to hashmap as the winner. We didn't have any perf tests for
fast-export or fast-import, so I added one as a more real-world case.
It uses an export without blobs since that's significantly cheaper than
a full one, but still is an interesting case people might use (e.g., for
rewriting history). It will emphasize this change in some ways (as a
percentage we spend more time making objects and less shuffling blob
bytes around) and less in others (the total object count is lower).
Here are the results for linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
9300.1: export (no-blobs) 67.64(66.96+0.67) 67.81(67.06+0.75) +0.3%
9300.2: import (no-blobs) 284.04(283.34+0.69) 198.09(196.01+0.92) -30.3%
It only has ~5.2M commits and trees, so this is a larger effect than I
expected (the 2^23 case above only improved by 50s or so, but here we
gained almost 90s). This is probably due to actually performing more
object lookups in a real import with trees and commits, as opposed to
just dumping a bunch of blobs into a pack.

See Documentation/technical/commit-graph-format for the format in which

To read Bloom filter for a given commit with lexicographic position
'i' we need to:
1. Read BIDX[i] which essentially gives us the starting index in BDAT for
filter of commit i+1. It is essentially the index past the end
of the filter of commit i. It is called end_index in the code.
2. For i>0, read BIDX[i-1] which will give us the starting index in BDAT
for filter of commit i. It is called the start_index in the code.
For the first commit, where i = 0, Bloom filter data starts at the
beginning, just past the header in the BDAT chunk. Hence, start_index
will be 0.
3. The length of the filter will be end_index - start_index, because
BIDX[i] gives the cumulative 8-byte words including the ith
commit's filter.
We toggle whether Bloom filters should be recomputed based on the
compute_if_not_present flag.

The git-update-ref(1) command can only handle queueing transactions
right now via its "--stdin" parameter, but there is no way for users to
handle the transaction itself in a more explicit way. E.g. in a
replicated scenario, one may imagine a coordinator that spawns
git-update-ref(1) for multiple repositories and only if all agree that
an update is possible will the coordinator send a commit. Such a
transactional session could look like
> start
< start: ok
> update refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW
> prepare
< prepare: ok
# All nodes have returned "ok"
> commit
< commit: ok
or
> start
< start: ok
> create refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW
> prepare
< fatal: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/master': reference already exists
# On all other nodes:
> abort
< abort: ok
In order to allow for such transactional sessions, this commit
introduces four new commands for git-update-ref(1), which matches those
we have internally already with the exception of "start":
- start: start a new transaction
- prepare: prepare the transaction, that is try to lock all
references and verify their current value matches the
expected one
- commit: explicitly commit a session, that is update references to
match their new expected state
- abort: abort a session and roll back all changes
By design, git-update-ref(1) will commit as soon as standard input is
being closed. While fine in a non-transactional world, it is definitely
unexpected in a transactional world. Because of this, as soon as any of
the new transactional commands is used, the default will change to
aborting without an explicit "commit". To avoid a race between queueing
updates and the first "prepare" that starts a transaction, the "start"
command has been added to start an explicit transaction.
Add some tests to exercise this new functionality.

datetime using OPT_EXPIRY_DATE(). However, the implementation inside
expire_commit_graphs() was treating a non-zero value as a number of
seconds to subtract from "now".
Update t5323-split-commit-graph.sh to demonstrate the correct value
of the --expire-time option by actually creating a crud .graph file
with mtime earlier than the expire time. Instead of using a super-
early time (1980) we use an explicit, and recent, time. Using
test-tool chmtime to create two files on either end of an exact
second, we create a test that catches this failure no matter the
current time. Using a fixed date is more portable than trying to
format a relative date string into the --expiry-date input.
I noticed this when inspecting some Scalar repos that had an excess
number of commit-graph files. In Scalar, we were using this second
interpretation by using "--expire-time=3600" to mean "delete graphs
older than one hour ago" to avoid deleting a commit-graph that a
foreground process may be trying to load.
Also I noticed that the help text was copied from the --max-commits
option. Fix that help text.

As reported on the git mailing list, since git-2.25,
git add untracked-dir/
has been tab completing to
git add untracked-dir/./
The cause for this was that with commit b9670c1f5e (dir: fix checks on
common prefix directory, 2019-12-19),
git ls-files -o --directory untracked-dir/
(or the equivalent `git -C untracked-dir ls-files -o --directory`) began
reporting
untracked-dir/
instead of listing paths underneath that directory. It may also be
worth noting that the real command in question was
git -C untracked-dir ls-files -o --directory '*'
which is equivalent to
git ls-files -o --directory 'untracked-dir/*'
which behaves the same for the purposes of this issue (the '*' can match
the empty string), but becomes relevant for the proposed fix.
At first, based on the report, I decided to try to view this as a
regression and tried to find a way to recover the old behavior without
breaking other stuff, or at least breaking as little as possible.
However, in the end, I couldn't figure out a way to do it that wouldn't
just cause lots more problems than it solved. The old behavior was a
bug:
* Although older git would avoid cleaning anything with `git clean -f
.git`, it would wipe out everything under that direcotry with `git
clean -f .git/`. Despite the difference in command used, this is
relevant because the exact same change that fixed clean changed the
behavior of ls-files.
* Older git would report different results based solely on presence or
absence of a trailing slash for $SUBDIR in the command `git ls-files
-o --directory $SUBDIR`.
* Older git violated the documented behavior of not recursing into
directories that matched the pathspec when --directory was
specified.
* And, after all, commit b9670c1f5e (dir: fix checks on common prefix
directory, 2019-12-19) didn't overlook this issue; it explicitly
stated that the behavior of the command was being changed to bring
it inline with the docs.
(Also, if it helps, despite that commit being merged during the 2.25
series, this bug was not reported during the 2.25 cycle, nor even during
most of the 2.26 cycle -- it was reported a day before 2.26 was
released. So the impact of the change is at least somewhat small.)
Instead of relying on a bug of ls-files in reporting the wrong content,
change the invocation of ls-files used by git-completion to make it grab
paths one depth deeper. Do this by changing '$DIR/*' (match $DIR/ plus
0 or more characters) into '$DIR/?*' (match $DIR/ plus 1 or more
characters). Note that the '?' character should not be added when
trying to complete a filename (e.g. 'git ls-files -o --directory
"merge.c?*"' would not correctly return "merge.c" when such a file
exists), so we have to make sure to add the '?' character only in cases
where the path specified so far is a directory.

It turns out the t7063 has some testcases that even without using the
untracked cache cover situations that nothing else in the testsuite
handles. Checking the results of
git status --porcelain
both with and without the untracked cache, and comparing both against
our expected results helped uncover a critical bug in some dir.c
restructuring.
Unfortunately, it's not easy to run status and tell it to ignore the
untracked cache; the only knob we have is core.untrackedCache=false,
which is used to instruct git to *delete* the untracked cache (which
might also ignore the untracked cache when it operates, but that isn't
specified in the docs).
Create a simple helper that will create a clone of the index that is
missing the untracked cache bits, and use it to compare that the results
with the untracked cache match the results we get without the untracked
cache.

When cloning with --single-branch, we implement git-fetch's usual
tag-following behavior, grabbing any tag objects that point to objects
we have locally.
When we're a partial clone, though, our has_object_file() check will
actually lazy-fetch each tag. That not only defeats the purpose of
--single-branch, but it does it incredibly slowly, potentially kicking
off a new fetch for each tag. This is even worse for a shallow clone,
which implies --single-branch, because even tags which are supersets of
each other will be fetched individually.
We can fix this by passing OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT to the call,
which is what git-fetch does in this case.
Likewise, let's include OBJECT_INFO_QUICK, as that's what git-fetch
does. The rationale is discussed in 5827a03545 (fetch: use "quick"
has_sha1_file for tag following, 2016-10-13), but here the tradeoff
would apply even more so because clone is very unlikely to be racing
with another process repacking our newly-created repository.
This may provide a very small speedup even in the non-partial case case,
as we'd avoid calling reprepare_packed_git() for each tag (though in
practice, we'd only have a single packfile, so that reprepare should be
quite cheap).

We renamed the actual data structure in 910650d2f8 (Rename sha1_array to

Let's complete the transition by renaming the source and header files

I kept the "-" in the name, as that seems to be our style; cf.
fc1395f4a4 (sha1_file.c: rename to use dash in file name, 2018-04-10).
We also have oidmap.h and oidset.h without any punctuation, but those

Add the core implementation for computing Bloom filters for

We fill the Bloom filters as (const char *data, int len) pairs
as `struct bloom_filters" within a commit slab.
Filters for commits with no changes and more than 512 changes,
is represented with a filter of length zero. There is no gain
in distinguishing between a computed filter of length zero for
a commit with no changes, and an uncomputed filter for new commits
or for commits with more than 512 changes. The effect on
`git log -- path` is the same in both cases. We will fall back to

Introduce the constructs for Bloom filters, Bloom filter keys
and Bloom filter settings.
For details on what Bloom filters are and how they work, refer
to Dr. Derrick Stolee's blog post [1]. It provides a concise
explanation of the adoption of Bloom filters as described in
[2] and [3].
Implementation specifics:
1. We currently use 7 and 10 for the number of hashes and the
size of each entry respectively. They served as great starting
values, the mathematical details behind this choice are
described in [1] and [4]. The implementation, while not
completely open to it at the moment, is flexible enough to allow
for tweaking these settings in the future.
Note: The performance gains we have observed with these values
are significant enough that we did not need to tweak these
settings. The performance numbers are included in the cover letter
of this series and in the commit message of the subsequent commit
where we use Bloom filters to speed up `git log -- path`.
2. As described in [1] and [3], we do not need 7 independent hashing
functions. We use the Murmur3 hashing scheme, seed it twice and
then combine those to procure an arbitrary number of hash values.
3. The filters will be sized according to the number of changes in
each commit, in multiples of 8 bit words.

Commit 645c432d61 (pack-objects: use reachability bitmap index when
generating non-stdout pack, 2016-09-10) added two timing tests for
packing to an on-disk file, both with and without bitmaps. However, the
non-bitmap one isn't interesting to have as part of p5310's regression
suite. It _could_ be used as a baseline to show off the improvement in
the bitmap case, but:
- the point of the t/perf suite is to find performance regressions,
and it won't help with that. We don't compare the numbers between
two tests (which the perf suite has no idea are even related), and
any change in its numbers would have nothing to do with bitmaps.
- it did show off the improvement in the commit message of 645c432d61,
but it wasn't even necessary there. The bitmap case already shows an
improvement (because before the patch, it behaved the same as the
non-bitmap case), and the perf suite is even able to show the
difference between the before and after measurements.
On top of that, it's one of the most expensive tests in the suite,
clocking in around 60s for linux.git on my machine (as compared to 16s
for the bitmapped version). And by default when using "./run", we'd run
it three times!
So let's just drop it. It's not useful and is adding minutes to perf
runs.

When processing the arguments list for a v2 ls-refs or fetch command, we
loop like this:

const char *arg = request->line;
...handle arg...
}
to read and handle packets until we see a flush. The hidden assumption
here is that anything except PACKET_READ_FLUSH will give us valid packet
data to read. But that's not true; PACKET_READ_DELIM or PACKET_READ_EOF
will leave packet->line as NULL, and we'll segfault trying to look at
it.
Instead, we should follow the more careful model demonstrated on the
client side (e.g., in process_capabilities_v2): keep looping as long
as we get normal packets, and then make sure that we broke out of the
loop due to a real flush. That fixes the segfault and correctly

The packetize() function takes its input on stdin, and requires 4
separate sub-processes to format a simple string. We can do much better
by getting the length via the shell's "${#packet}" construct. The one
caveat is that the shell can't put a NUL into a variable, so we'll have
to continue to provide the stdin form for a few calls.
There are a few other cleanups here in the touched code:
- the stdin form of packetize() had an extra stray "%s" when printing
the packet
- the converted calls in t5562 can be made simpler by redirecting
output as a block, rather than repeated appending

Setting and clearing of the SKIP_WORKTREE bit is not only done when
users run 'sparse-checkout'; other commands such as 'checkout' also run
through unpack_trees() which has logic for handling this special bit.
As such, we need to consider how they handle special cases. A couple
comparison points should help explain the rationale for changing how
unpack_trees() handles these bits:
Ignoring sparse checkouts for a moment, if you are switching
branches and have dirty changes, it is only considered an error that
will prevent the branch switching from being successful if the dirty
file happens to be one of the paths with different contents.
SKIP_WORKTREE has always been considered advisory; for example, if
rebase or merge need or even want to materialize a path as part of
their work, they have always been allowed to do so regardless of the
SKIP_WORKTREE setting. This has been used for unmerged paths, but
it was often used for paths it wasn't needed just because it made
the code simpler. It was a best-effort consideration, and when it
materialized paths contrary to the SKIP_WORKTREE setting, it was
never required to even print a warning message.
In the past if you trying to run e.g. 'git checkout' and:
1) you had a path that was materialized and had some dirty changes
2) the path was listed in $GITDIR/info/sparse-checkout
3) this path did not different between the current and target branches
then despite the comparison points above, the inability to set
SKIP_WORKTREE was treated as a *hard* error that would abort the
checkout operation. This is completely inconsistent with how
SKIP_WORKTREE is handled elsewhere, and rather annoying for users as
leaving the paths materialized in the working copy (with a simple
warning) should present no problem at all.
Downgrade any errors from inability to toggle the SKIP_WORKTREE bit to a
warning and allow the operations to continue.

Especially when debugging a test failure that can only be reproduced in
the CI build (e.g. when the developer has no access to a macOS machine
other than running the tests on a macOS build agent), output should not
be suppressed.
In the instance of `hi/gpg-prefer-check-signature`, where one
GPG-related test failed for no apparent reason, the entire output of
`gpg` and `gpgsm` was suppressed, even in verbose mode, leaving
interested readers no clue what was going wrong.
Let's fix this by no longer redirecting the output not to `/dev/null`.
This is now possible because the affected prereqs were turned into lazy
ones (and are therefore evaluated via `test_eval_` which respects the
`--verbose` option).
Note that we _still_ redirect `stdout` to `/dev/null` for those commands
that sign their `stdin`, as the output would be binary (and useless
anyway, because the reader would not have anything against which to
compare the output).

The code to set those prereqs is executed completely outside of any
`test_eval_` block. As a consequence, its output had to be suppressed so
that it does not clutter the output of a regular test script run.
Unfortunately, the output *stays* suppressed even when the `--verbose`
option is in effect.
This hid important output when debugging why the GPG prereq was not
enabled in the Windows part of our CI builds.
In preparation for fixing that, let's move all of this code into lazy
prereqs.
The only slightly tricky part is the global environment variable
`GNUPGHOME`. Originally, it was configured only when we verified that
there is a `gpg` in the `PATH` that we can use. This is now no longer
possible, as lazy prereqs are evaluated in a subshell that changes the
working directory to a temporary one. Therefore, we simply _always_ set
that environment variable: it does not hurt anything because it does not
indicate the presence of a working GPG.
Side note: it was quite tempting to use a hack that is possible because
we do not validate what is passed to `test_lazy_prereq` (and it is
therefore possible to "break out" of the lazy_prereq subshell:
test_lazy_prereq GPG '...) && GNUPGHOME=... && (...'
However, this is rather tricksy hobbitses code, and the current patch is
_much_ easier to understand.

The `test_expect_*` functions use `test_eval_` and so does
`test_run_lazy_prereq_`. If tracing is enabled via the `-x` option,
`test_eval_` turns on tracing while evaluating the code block, and turns
it off directly after it.
This is unwanted for nested invocations.
One somewhat surprising example of this is when running a test that
calls `test_i18ngrep`: that function requires the `C_LOCALE_OUTPUT`
prereq, and that prereq is a lazy one, so it is evaluated via
`test_eval_`, the command tracing is turned off, and the test case
continues to run _without tracing the commands_.
Another somewhat surprising example is when one lazy prereq depends on
another lazy prereq: the former will call `test_have_prereq` with the
latter one, which in turn calls `test_eval_` and -- you guessed it --
tracing (if enabled) will be turned off _before_ returning to evaluating
the other lazy prereq.
As we will introduce just such a scenario with the GPG, GPGSM and
RFC1991 prereqs, let's fix that by introducing a variable that keeps
track of the current trace level: nested `test_eval_` calls will
increment and then decrement the level, and only when it reaches 0, the
tracing will _actually_ be turned off.

In Git for Windows' SDK, we use the MSYS2 version of OpenSSH, meaning
that the `gpg-agent` will fail horribly when being passed a `--homedir`
that contains colons.
Previously, we did pass the Windows version of the absolute path,
though, which starts in the drive letter followed by, you guessed it, a
colon.
Let's use the same trick found elsewhere in our test suite where `$PWD`
is used to refer to the pseudo-Unix path (which works only within the
MSYS2 Bash/OpenSSH/Perl/etc, as opposed to `$(pwd)` which refers to the
Windows path that `git.exe` understands, too).

When debugging a test (or a set of tests), it's common to execute it
with some combination of short options, such as:
$ ./txxx-testname.sh -d -x -i
In cases like this, CLIs usually allow the short options to be bundled
in a single argument, for convenience and agility. Let's add this
feature to test-lib, allowing the above command to be run as:
$ ./txxx-testname.sh -dxi
(or any other permutation, e.g. '-ixd')
Note: Short options that require an argument can also be used in a
bundle, in any position. So, for example, '-r 5 -x', '-xr 5' and '-rx 5'
are all valid and equivalent. A special case would be having a bundle
with more than one of such options. To keep things simple, this case is
not allowed for now. This shouldn't be a major limitation, though, as
the only short option that requires an argument today is '-r'. And
concatenating '-r's as in '-rr 5 6' would probably not be very
practical: its unbundled format would be '-r 5 -r 6', for which test-lib
currently considers only the last argument. Therefore, if '-rr 5 6' were
to be allowed, it would have the same effect as just typing '-r 6'.
Note: the test-lib currently doesn't support '-r5', as an alternative
for '-r 5', so the former is not supported in bundles as well.

When t3419 was originally written, it was designed to run a smaller test
for correctness, and then the same test with a larger number of patches
for performance. But it seems unlikely the latter was helping us:
- it was marked with EXPENSIVE, so hardly anybody ran it anyway
- there's no indication that it was more likely to find bugs than the
smaller case (the commit message isn't very helpful, but the original
cover letter describes it as: "The first patch adds correctness and
(optional) performance tests".
- the timing results are shown only via test_debug(). So also not run
unless the user says "-d", and then not provided in any
machine-readable form.
If we're interested in performance regressions, a script in t/perf would
be more appropriate. I didn't add one here, because it's not at all
clear to me that what the script is timing is even all that interesting.
Let's simplify the script by dropping the EXPENSIVE run. That in turn
lets us drop the do_tests() wrapper, which lets us consistently use
single-quotes for our test snippets. And we can drop the useless
test_debug() timings, as well as their run() helper. And finally, while
we're here, we can replace the count() helper with the standard
test_seq().

This test runs a function which itself runs several assertions. The
last of these assertions cleans up the .git/rebase-apply directory,
since when run with EXPENSIVE set, the function is invoked a second time
to run the same tests with a larger data set.
However, as of 2ac0d6273f ("rebase: change the default backend from "am"
to "merge"", 2020-02-15), the default backend of rebase has changed, and
cleaning up the rebase-apply directory has no effect: it no longer
exists, since we're using rebase-merge instead.
Since we don't really care which rebase backend is in use, let's just
use the command "git rebase --quit", which will do the right thing

The environment variable GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE was previously used
to allow testing the --sparse option for "git pack-objects" in
the test suite. This allowed interesting cases of "git push" to
also test this algorithm.
Since pack.useSparse is now true by default, we do not need this
variable to _enable_ the --sparse option, but instead to _disable_
it. This flips how we work with the variable a bit.
When checking for the variable, default to a value of -1 for
"unset". If unset, then take the default from the repo settings,
which is currently 1. Then, the --[no-]sparse command-line option
will override either of these settings.

The pack.useSparse config option was introduced by 3d036eb0
(pack-objects: create pack.useSparse setting, 2019-01-19) and was
first available in v2.21.0. When enabled, the pack-objects process
during 'git push' will use a sparse tree walk when deciding which
trees and blobs to send to the remote. The algorithm was introduced
by d5d2e93 (revision: implement sparse algorithm, 2019-01-16) and
has been in production use by VFS for Git since around that time.
The features.experimental config option also enabled pack.useSparse,
so hopefully that has also increased exposure.
It is worth noting that pack.useSparse has a possibility of
sending more objects across a push, but requires a special
arrangement of exact _copies_ across directories. There is a test
in t5322-pack-objects-sparse.sh that demonstrates this possibility.
This test uses the --sparse option to "git pack-objects" but we
can make it implied by the config value to demonstrate that the
default value has changed.
While updating that test, I noticed that the documentation did not
include an option for --no-sparse, which is now more important than
it was before.
Since the downside is unlikely but the upside is significant, set
the default value of pack.useSparse to true. Remove it from the
set of options implied by features.experimental.

Now that we have the codebase wired up to pass any additional metadata

The two main places we pass this metadata are checkouts and archives.
In these two situations, reading HEAD isn't a valid option, since HEAD
isn't updated for checkouts until after the working tree is written and
archives can accept an arbitrary tree. In other situations, HEAD will
usually reflect the refname of the branch in current use.
We pass a smaller amount of data in other cases, such as git cat-file,
where we can really only logically know about the blob.
This commit updates only the parts of the checkout code where we don't
use unpack_trees. That function and callers of it will be handled in a

There weren't any tests for unsuccessful signature verification of
signed merge tags shown in 'git log'. There also weren't any tests for
the GPG output from 'git fmt-merge-msg'. This was noticed while
investigating a buggy refactor that slipped through the test suite; see
commit 72b006f4bf.
This commit adds signature verification tests to the 'log' and
'fmt-merge-msg' builtins.
Thanks to Linus Torvalds for reporting and finding the (now reverted)
commit that introduced the regression.
Note that the "log --show-signature for merged tag with GPG failure"
test case is really hacky. It relies on an implementation detail of
verify_signed_buffer() -- namely, it assumes that the signature is
written to a temporary file whose path is under TMPDIR.
The rationale for that test case is to check whether the code path that
yields the "No signature" message is reachable on failure. The
functionality in log-tree.c that may show this message does some
pre-parsing of a possible signature that prevents the GPG interface from
being invoked if a signature is actually missing. And I haven't been
able to construct a signature that both 1. satisfies that
pre-processing, and 2. causes GPG to fail without any sort of output on
stderr along the lines of "this is a bogus/corrupt/... signature" (the
"No signature" message should only be shown if GPG produce no output).

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Several tests wanted to verify that files were actually modified by a
merge, which it would do by checking that the mtime was updated. In
order to avoid problems with the merge completing so fast that the mtime
at the beginning and end of the operation was the same, these tests
would first set the mtime of a file to something "old". This "old"
value was usually determined as current system clock minus one second,
truncated to the nearest integer. Unfortunately, it appears the system
clock and filesystem clock are different and comparing across the two
runs into race problems resulting in flaky tests.
From https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14392975/timestamp-accuracy-on-ext4-sub-millsecond:
date will call the gettimeofday system call which will always return
the most accurate time available based on the cached kernel time,
adjusted by the CPU cycle time if available to give nanosecond
resolution. The timestamps stored in the file system however, are
only based on the cached kernel time. ie The time calculated at the
last timer interrupt.
and from https://apenwarr.ca/log/20181113:
Does mtime get set to >= the current time?
No, this depends on clock granularity. For example, gettimeofday()
can return times in microseconds on my system, but ext4 rounds
timestamps down to the previous ~10ms (but not exactly 10ms)
increment, with the surprising result that a newly-created file is
almost always created in the past:
$ python -c "
import os, time
t0 = time.time()
open('testfile', 'w').close()
print os.stat('testfile').st_mtime - t0
"
-0.00234484672546
So, instead of trying to compare across what are effectively two
different clocks, just avoid using the system clock. Any new updates to
files have to give an mtime at least as big as what is already in the
file, so we could define "old" as one second before the mtime found in
the file before the merge starts. But, to avoid problems with leap
seconds, ntp updates, filesystems that only provide two second
resolution, and other such weirdness, let's just pick an hour before the
mtime found in the file before the merge starts.
Also, clarify in one test where we check the mtime of different files
that it really was intentional. I totally forgot the reasons for that
and assumed it was a bug when asked.

Band-aid fixes for two fallouts from switching the default "rebase"

The credential protocol can't handle values with newlines. We already
detect and block any such URLs from being used with credential helpers,
but let's also add an fsck check to detect and block gitmodules files
with such URLs. That will let us notice the problem earlier when
transfer.fsckObjects is turned on. And in particular it will prevent bad
objects from spreading, which may protect downstream users running older
versions of Git.
We'll file this under the existing gitmodulesUrl flag, which covers URLs
with option injection. There's really no need to distinguish the exact
flaw in the URL in this context. Likewise, I've expanded the description
of t7416 to cover all types of bogus URLs.
The credential protocol can't represent newlines in values, but URLs can
embed percent-encoded newlines in various components. A previous commit
taught the low-level writing routines to die() when encountering this,
but we can be a little friendlier to the user by detecting them earlier
and handling them gracefully.
This patch teaches credential_from_url() to notice such components,
issue a warning, and blank the credential (which will generally result
in prompting the user for a username and password). We blank the whole
credential in this case. Another option would be to blank only the
invalid component. However, we're probably better off not feeding a
partially-parsed URL result to a credential helper. We don't know how a
given helper would handle it, so we're better off to err on the side of
matching nothing rather than something unexpected.
The die() call in credential_write() is _probably_ impossible to reach
after this patch. Values should end up in credential structs only by URL
parsing (which is covered here), or by reading credential protocol input
(which by definition cannot read a newline into a value). But we should
definitely keep the low-level check, as it's our final and most accurate
line of defense against protocol injection attacks. Arguably it could
become a BUG(), but it probably doesn't matter much either way.
Note that the public interface of credential_from_url() grows a little
more than we need here. We'll use the extra flexibility in a future
patch to help fsck catch these cases.
The credential tests have a "check" function which feeds some input to
git-credential and checks the stdout and stderr. We look for exact
matches in the output. For stdout, this makes sense; the output is
the credential protocol. But for stderr, we may be showing various
diagnostic messages, or the prompts fed to the askpass program, which
could be translated. Let's mark them as such.
The credential protocol that we use to speak to helpers can't represent
values with newlines in them. This was an intentional design choice to
keep the protocol simple, since none of the values we pass should
generally have newlines.
However, if we _do_ encounter a newline in a value, we blindly transmit
it in credential_write(). Such values may break the protocol syntax, or
worse, inject new valid lines into the protocol stream.
The most likely way for a newline to end up in a credential struct is by
decoding a URL with a percent-encoded newline. However, since the bug
occurs at the moment we write the value to the protocol, we'll catch it
there. That should leave no possibility of accidentally missing a code
path that can trigger the problem.
At this level of the code we have little choice but to die(). However,
since we'd not ever expect to see this case outside of a malicious URL,
that's an acceptable outcome.

In commit e98c4269c8 ("rebase (interactive-backend): fix handling of
commits that become empty", 2020-02-15), the merge backend was changed
to drop commits that did not start empty but became so after being
applied (because their changes were a subset of what was already
upstream). This new code path did not need to go through the process of
creating a commit, since we were dropping the commit instead.
Unfortunately, this also means we bypassed the clearing of the
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and MERGE_MSG files, which if there were no further
commits to cherry-pick would mean that the rebase would end but assume
there was still an operation in progress. Ensure that we clear such
state files when we decide to drop the commit.

Often novice Git users forget to say "pull --rebase" and end up with an
unnecessary merge from upstream. What they usually want is either "pull
--rebase" in the simpler cases, or "pull --ff-only" to update the copy
of main integration branches, and rebase their work separately. The
pull.rebase configuration variable exists to help them in the simpler
cases, but there is no mechanism to make these users aware of it.
Issue a warning message when no --[no-]rebase option from the command
line and no pull.rebase configuration variable is given. This will
inconvenience those who never want to "pull --rebase", who haven't had
to do anything special, but the cost of the inconvenience is paid only
once per user, which should be a reasonable cost to help a number of new

Returning a shared buffer invites very subtle bugs due to reentrancy or

There was an unfinished effort to abolish this [1].
Let's finally rid of `real_path()`, using `strbuf_realpath()` instead.
This patch uses a local `strbuf` for most places where `real_path()` was

However, two places return the value of `real_path()` to the caller. For
them, a `static` local `strbuf` was added, effectively pushing the

We grep for "File exists" in stderr of the failing `git sparse-checkout`
to make sure that it failed for the right reason. We expect the string
to show up there since we call `strerror(errno)` in
`unable_to_lock_message()` in lockfile.c.
On the NonStop platform, this fails because the error string is "File
already exists", which doesn't match our grepping.
See 9042140097 ("test-dir-iterator: do not assume errno values",
2019-07-30) for a somewhat similar fix. There, we patched a test helper,
which meant we had access to `errno` and could investigate it better in
the test helper instead of just outputting the numerical value and
evaluating it in the test script. The current situation is different,
since (short of modifying the lockfile machinery, e.g., to be more
verbose) we don't have more than the output from `strerror()` available.
Except we do: We prefix `strerror(errno)` with `_("Unable to create
'%s.lock': ")`. Let's grep for that part instead. It verifies that we
were indeed unable to create the lock file. (If that fails for some
other reason than the file existing, we really really should expect
other tests to fail as well.)
An alternative fix would be to loosen the expression a bit and grep for
"File.* exists" instead. There would be no guarantee that some other
implementation couldn't come up with another error string, That is, that
could be the first move in an endless game of whack-a-mole. Of course,
it could also take us from "99" to "100" percent of the platforms and
we'd never have this problem again. But since we have another way of
addressing this, let's not even try the "loosen it up a bit" strategy.

Remove the stash.useBuiltin setting which was added as an escape hatch

Carrying the legacy version is a maintenance burden, and has in fact
become out of date failing a test since the 2.23 release, without

We used to shell out to git config to get the useBuiltin configuration

When converting a repository using submodules from one hash algorithm to
another, it is necessary to rewrite the submodules from the old
algorithm to the new algorithm, since only references to submodules, not
their contents, are written to the fast-export stream. Without rewriting
the submodules, fast-import fails with an "Invalid dataref" error when
encountering a submodule in another algorithm.
Add a pair of options, --rewrite-submodules-from and
--rewrite-submodules-to, that take a list of marks produced by
fast-export and fast-import, respectively, when processing the
submodule. Use these marks to map the submodule commits from the old
algorithm to the new algorithm.
We read marks into two corresponding struct mark_set objects and then
perform a mapping from the old to the new using a hash table. This lets
us reuse the same mark parsing code that is used elsewhere and allows us
to efficiently read and match marks based on their ID, since mark files
need not be sorted.
Note that because we're using a khash table for the object IDs, and this
table copies values of struct object_id instead of taking references to
them, it's necessary to zero the struct object_id values that we use to
insert and look up in the table. Otherwise, we would end up with SHA-1
values that don't match because of whatever stack garbage might be left
in the unused area.

Among other differences relative to GNU sed, macOS' sed always ends its
output with a trailing newline, even if the input did not have such a
trailing newline.
Surprisingly, this makes three httpd-based tests fail on macOS: t5616,
t5702 and t5703. ("Surprisingly" because those tests have been around
for some time, but apparently nobody runs them on macOS with a working
Apache2 setup.)
The reason is that we use `sed` in those tests to filter the response of
the web server. Apart from the fact that we use GNU constructs (such as
using a space after the `c` command instead of a backslash and a
newline), we have another problem: macOS' sed LF-only newlines while
webservers are supposed to use CR/LF ones.
Even worse, t5616 uses `sed` to replace a binary part of the response
with a new binary part (kind of hoping that the replaced binary part
does not contain a 0x0a byte which would be interpreted as a newline).
To that end, it calls on Perl to read the binary pack file and
hex-encode it, then calls on `sed` to prefix every hex digit pair with a
`\x` in order to construct the text that the `c` statement of the `sed`
invocation is supposed to insert. So we call Perl and sed to construct a
sed statement. The final nail in the coffin is that macOS' sed does not
even interpret those `\x<hex>` constructs.
Let's just replace all of that by Perl snippets. With Perl, at least, we
do not have to deal with GNU vs macOS semantics, we do not have to worry
about unwanted trailing newlines, and we do not have to spawn commands
to construct arguments for other commands to be spawned (i.e. we can
avoid a whole lot of shell scripting complexity).
The upshot is that this fixes t5616, t5702 and t5703 on macOS with
Apache2.

When searching the commit graph for tag candidates, `git-describe`

it can happen that the search on one branch terminates prematurely
because a tag was found on another, independent branch. This scenario
isn't quite as obscure as it sounds, since cloning with a limited
depth often introduces many independent "dead ends" into the commit
graph.
The help text of `git-describe` states pretty clearly that when
describing a commit D, the number appended to the emitted tag X should
correspond to the number of commits found by `git log X..D`.
Thus, this commit modifies the stopping condition to only abort
the search when only one branch is left to search *and* all current
best candidates are descendants from that branch.
For repositories with a single root, this condition is always
true: When the search is reduced to a single active branch, the
current commit must be an ancestor of *all* tag candidates. This
means that in the common case, this change will have no negative
performance impact since the same number of commits as before will
be traversed.

"git worktree add <path>" performs various checks before approving
<path> as a valid location for the new worktree. Aside from ensuring
that <path> does not already exist, one of the questions it asks is
whether <path> is already a registered worktree. To perform this check,
it queries find_worktree() and disallows the "add" operation if
find_worktree() finds a match for <path>. As a convenience, however,
find_worktree() casts an overly wide net to allow users to identify
worktrees by shorthand in order to keep typing to a minimum. For
instance, it performs suffix matching which, given subtrees "foo/bar"
and "foo/baz", can correctly select the latter when asked only for
"baz".
"add" validation knows the exact path it is interrogating, so this sort
of heuristic-based matching is, at best, questionable for this use-case
and, at worst, may may accidentally interpret <path> as matching an
existing worktree and incorrectly report it as already registered even
when it isn't. (In fact, validate_worktree_add() already contains a
special case to avoid accidentally matching against the main worktree,
precisely due to this problem.)
Avoid the problem of potential accidental matching against an existing
worktree by instead taking advantage of find_worktree_by_path() which
matches paths deterministically, without applying any sort of magic
shorthand matching performed by find_worktree().

This test intentionally creates a file which causes rebase to fail, thus
it is important that this file be deleted before subsequent tests are
run which are not expecting such a failure. In the past, the common way
to ensure cleanup (regardless of whether the test succeeded or failed)
was either for the next test to perform the previous test's cleanup as
its first step or to do the cleanup at global scope outside of any
tests. With the introduction of 'test_when_finished', however, tests can
be responsible for their own cleanup. Therefore, update this test to
clean up after itself.
A bit of history: This 'rm' invocation was moved from within the body of
the following test to global scope by bffd750adf (rebase: improve error
message when upstream argument is missing, 2010-05-31), which postdates,
by about a month, introduction of 'test_when_finished' in 3bf7886705

The receive.denyCurrentBranch config option controls what happens if
you push to a branch that is checked out into a non-bare repository.
By default, it rejects it. It can be disabled via `ignore` or `warn`.
Another yet trickier option is `updateInstead`.
However, this setting was forgotten when the git worktree command was
introduced: only the main worktree's current branch is respected.
With this change, all worktrees are respected.
That change also leads to revealing another bug,
i.e. `receive.denyCurrentBranch = true` was ignored when pushing into a
non-bare repository's unborn current branch using ref namespaces. As
`is_ref_checked_out()` returns 0 which means `receive-pack` does not get
into conditional statement to switch `deny_current_branch` accordingly
(ignore, warn, refuse, unconfigured, updateInstead).
receive.denyCurrentBranch uses the function `refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()`
(called via `resolve_refdup()`) to resolve the symbolic ref HEAD, but
that function fails when HEAD does not point at a valid commit.
As we replace the call to `refs_resolve_ref_unsafe()` with
`find_shared_symref()`, which has no problem finding the worktree for a
given branch even if it is unborn yet, this bug is fixed at the same
time: receive.denyCurrentBranch now also handles worktrees with unborn
branches as intended even while using ref namespaces.

`receive.denyCurrentBranch` currently has a bug where it allows pushing

pushes into an unborn current branch.
In t5509, no operations are performed inside `pushee`, as it is only a
target for `git push` and `git ls-remote` calls. Therefore it does not
need to have a worktree. So, it is safe to change `pushee` to a bare

When using partial clone, find_non_local_tags() in builtin/fetch.c
checks each remote tag to see if its object also exists locally. There
is no expectation that the object exist locally, but this function
nevertheless triggers a lazy fetch if the object does not exist. This
can be extremely expensive when asking for a commit, as we are
completely removed from the context of the non-existent object and
thus supply no "haves" in the request.
6462d5eb9a (fetch: remove fetch_if_missing=0, 2019-11-05) removed a
global variable that prevented these fetches in favor of a bitflag.
However, some object existence checks were not updated to use this flag.
Update find_non_local_tags() to use OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT in
addition to OBJECT_INFO_QUICK. The _QUICK option only prevents
repreparing the pack-file structures. We need to be extremely careful
about supplying _SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT when we expect an object to not exist
due to updated refs.
This resolves a broken test in t5616-partial-clone.sh.

While testing partial clone, I noticed some odd behavior. I was testing
a way of running 'git init', followed by manually configuring the remote
for partial clone, and then running 'git fetch'. Astonishingly, I saw
the 'git fetch' process start asking the server for multiple rounds of
pack-file downloads! When tweaking the situation a little more, I
discovered that I could cause the remote to hang up with an error.
Add two tests that demonstrate these two issues.
In the first test, we find that when fetching with blob filters from
a repository that previously did not have any tags, the 'git fetch
--tags origin' command fails because the server sends "multiple
filter-specs cannot be combined". This only happens when using
protocol v2.
In the second test, we see that a 'git fetch origin' request with
several ref updates results in multiple pack-file downloads. This must
be due to Git trying to fault-in the objects pointed by the refs. What
makes this matter particularly nasty is that this goes through the
do_oid_object_info_extended() method, so there are no "haves" in the
negotiation. This leads the remote to send every reachable commit and
tree from each new ref, providing a quadratic amount of data transfer!
This test is fixed if we revert 6462d5eb9a (fetch: remove
fetch_if_missing=0, 2019-11-05), but that revert causes other test
failures. The real fix will need more care.
The tests are ordered in this way because if I swap the test order the
tag test will succeed instead of fail. I believe this is because somehow
we need the srv.bare repo to not have any tags when we clone, but then
have tags in our next fetch.

An annotated tag has two names: where it sits in the refs/tags
hierarchy and the tagname recorded in the "tag" field in the object
itself. They usually should match.
Since 212945d4 ("Teach git-describe to verify annotated tag names
before output", 2008-02-28), a commit described using an annotated
tag bases its name on the tagname from the object. While this was a
deliberate design decision to make it easier to converse about tags
with others, even if the tags happen to be fetched to a different
name than it was given by its creator, it had one downside.
The output from "git describe", at least in the modern Git, should
be usable as an object name to name the exact commit given to the
"git describe" command. Using the tagname, when two names differ,
breaks this property, when describing a commit that is directly
pointed at by such a tag. An annotated tag Bob made as "v1.0" may
sit at "refs/tags/v1.0-bob" in the ref hierarchy, and output from
"git describe v1.0-bob^0" would say "v1.0", but there may not be
any tag at "refs/tags/v1.0" locally or there may be another tag that
points at a different object.
Note that this won't be a problem if a commit being described is not
directly pointed at by such a mislocated tag. In the example in the
previous paragraph, describing a commit whose parent is v1.0-bob
would result in "v1.0" (i.e. the tagname taken from the tag object)
followed by "-1-gXXXXX" where XXXXX is the abbreviated object name,
and a string that ends with "-g" followed by a hexadecimal string is
an object name for the object whose name begins with hexadecimal
string (as long as it is unique), so it does not matter if the
leading part is "v1.0" or "v1.0-bob".
Show the name in the long format, i.e. with "-0-gXXXXX" suffix, when
the name we give is based on a mislocated annotated tag to ensure
that the output can be used as the object name for the object
originally given to the command to fix the issue.
While at it, remove an overly cautious dead code to protect against
an annotated tag object without the tagname. Such a tag is filtered
out much earlier in the codeflow, and will not reach this part of
the code.

In 9e6d3e64 (sparse-checkout: detect short patterns, 2020-01-24), a
condition on the minimum length of a cone-mode pattern was introduced.
However, this condition was off-by-one.
If we have a directory with a single character, say "b", then the
command
git sparse-checkout set b
will correctly add the pattern "/b/" to the sparse-checkout file. When
this is interpeted in dir.c, the pattern is "/b" with the
PATTERN_FLAG_MUSTBEDIR flag. This string has length two, which satisfies
our inclusive inequality (<= 2).
The reason for this inequality is that we will start to read the pattern
string character-by-character using three char pointers: prev, cur,
next. In particular, next is set to the current pattern plus two. The
mistake was that next will still be a valid pointer when the pattern
length is two, since the string is null-terminated.
Make this inequality strict so these patterns work.

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:

as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable or
base64. To simplify worktree operations and to avoid that users poke into
.git, it would be better if "git am" also provided a mode that copies
.git/rebase-merge/patch to stdout.
One possibility could be to have completely separate options, introducing
for example --show-current-message (for .git/rebase-apply/NNNN)
and --show-current-diff (for .git/rebase-apply/patch), while possibly
deprecating --show-current-patch.
That would even remove the need for the first two patches in the series.
However, the long common prefix would have prevented using an abbreviated
option such as "--show". Therefore, I chose instead to add a string
argument to --show-current-patch. The new argument is optional, so that
"git am --show-current-patch"'s behavior remains backwards-compatible.
The next choice to make is how to handle multiple --show-current-patch
options. Right now, something like "git am --abort --show-current-patch"
is rejected, and the previous suggestion would likewise have naturally
rejected a command line like
git am --show-current-message --show-current-diff
Therefore, I decided to also reject for example
git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch=raw
In other words the whole of --show-current-patch=xxx (including the
optional argument) is treated as the command mode. I found this to be
more consistent and intuitive, even though it differs from the usual
"last one wins" semantics of the git command line.
Add the code to parse submodes based on the above design, where for now
"raw" is the only valid submode. "raw" prints the full e-mail message
just like "git am --show-current-patch".

In some cases, a user will want to use a specific credential helper for
a wildcard pattern, such as https://*.corp.example.com. We have code
that handles this already with the urlmatch code, so let's use that
instead of our custom code.
Since the urlmatch code is a superset of our current matching in terms
of capabilities, there shouldn't be any cases of things that matched
previously that don't match now. However, in addition to wildcard
matching, we now use partial path matching, which can cause slightly
different behavior in the case that a helper applies to the prefix
(considering path components) of the remote URL. While different, this
is probably the behavior people were wanting anyway.
Since we're using the urlmatch code, we need to encode the components
we've gotten into a URL to match, so add a function to percent-encode
data and format the URL with it. We now also no longer need to the
custom code to match URLs, so let's remove it.
Additionally, the urlmatch code always looks for the best match, whereas
we want all matches for credential helpers to preserve existing
behavior. Let's add an optional field, select_fn, that lets us control
which items we want (in this case, all of them) and default it to the
best-match code that already exists for other users.

Everywhere else in the codebase, we use the rule that the last matching
configuration option is the one that takes effect. This is helpful
because it allows more specific configuration settings (e.g., per-repo
configuration) to override less specific settings (e.g., per-user
configuration).
However, in the credential code, we didn't honor this setting, and
instead picked the first setting we had, and stuck with it. This was
likely to ensure we picked the value from the URL, which we want to
honor over the configuration.
It's possible to do both, though, so let's check if the value is the one
we've gotten over our protocol connection, which if present will have
come from the URL, and keep it if so. Otherwise, let's overwrite the
value with the latest version we've got from the configuration, so we
keep the last configuration value.

cases:
* If there are multiple configured credential helpers, one without a
path and one with a path, we want to invoke both of them.
* If there are percent-encoded values in the URL, we handle them
properly.
* And finally, if there is a username in the remote URL, we want to
honor that over what the configuration tells us.
Finally, there's an additional case that we'd like to test for as well,
but that currently fails. In all other situations in our configuration,
we pick the last configuration setting that's provided. However, we
fail to do that for credential.username, where we pick the first setting
instead. Let's add a failing test that we have the consistent behavior

Submodule changes to be committed:

.git
The reason for the fatal error during the checkout is that a child git
process tries to cd into the yet unexisting nested submodule directory.
The sequence is the following:
1. The main git process (the one running in the superproject) eventually
reaches write_entry() in entry.c, which creates the first level
submodule directory and then calls submodule_move_head() in submodule.c,
which spawns `git read-tree` in the submodule directory.
2. The first child git process (the one in the submodule of the
superproject) eventually calls check_submodule_move_head() at
unpack_trees.c:2021, which calls submodule_move_head in dry-run mode,
which spawns `git read-tree` in the nested submodule directory.
3. The second child git process tries to chdir() in the yet unexisting
nested submodule directory in start_command() at run-command.c:829 and
dies before exec'ing.
The reason why check_submodule_move_head() is reached in the first child
and not in the main process is that it is inside an
if(submodule_from_ce()) construct, and submodule_from_ce() returns a
valid struct submodule pointer, whereas it returns a null pointer in the
main git process.
The reason why submodule_from_ce() returns a null pointer in the main
git process is because the call to cache_lookup_path() in config_from()
(called from submodule_from_path() in submodule_from_ce()) returns a
null pointer since the hashmap "for_path" in the submodule_cache of
the_repository is not yet populated. It is not populated because both
repo_get_oid(repo, GITMODULES_INDEX, &oid) and repo_get_oid(repo,
GITMODULES_HEAD, &oid) in config_from_gitmodules() at
submodule-config.c:639-640 return -1, as at this stage of the operation,
neither the HEAD of the superproject nor its index contain any
.gitmodules file.
In contrast, in the first child the hashmap is populated because
repo_get_oid(repo, GITMODULES_HEAD, &oid) returns 0 as the HEAD of the
first level submodule, i.e. .git/modules/submodule/HEAD, points to a
commit where .gitmodules is present and records 'nested' as a submodule.
Fix this bug by checking that the submodule directory exists before
calling check_submodule_move_head() in merged_entry() in the `if(!old)`
branch, i.e. if going from a commit with no submodule to a commit with a
submodule present.
Also protect the other call to check_submodule_move_head() in
merged_entry() the same way as it is safer, even though the `else if
(!(old->ce_flags & CE_CONFLICTED))` branch of the code is not at play in
the present bug.
The other calls to check_submodule_move_head() in other functions in
unpack_trees.c are all already protected by calls to lstat() somewhere
in
the program flow so we don't need additional protection for them.
All commands in the unpack_trees machinery are affected, i.e. checkout,
reset and read-tree when called with the --recurse-submodules flag.

The test "$command: submodule branch is not changed, detach HEAD
instead" is in the "Appearing submodule" section of
test_submodule_recursing_with_args_common(), but this test updates a
submodule; it does not test a transition from a state with no submodule
to a state with a submodule.
As such, for consistency, move it to the "Modified submodule" section of
the same function. While at it, add a comment describing the test.

Decisions taken for simplicity:
1) For now, `--pathspec-from-file` is declared incompatible with
`--patch`, even when <file> is not `-`. Such use case is not
really expected.
2) It is not allowed to pass pathspec in both args and file.

Eliminate crude option parsing and rely on real parsing instead, because
1) Crude parsing is crude, for example it's not capable of
handling things like `git stash -m Message`
2) Adding options in two places is inconvenient and prone to bugs
As a side result, the case of `git stash -m Message` gets fixed.
Also give a good error message instead of just throwing usage at user.
----
Some review of what's been happening to this code:
Before [1], `git-stash.sh` only verified that all args begin with `-` :
# The default command is "push" if nothing but options are given
seen_non_option=
for opt
do
case "$opt" in
--) break ;;
-*) ;;
*) seen_non_option=t; break ;;
esac
done
Later, [1] introduced the duplicate code I'm now removing, also making
the previous test more strict by white-listing options.

Decisions taken for simplicity:
1) It is not allowed to pass pathspec in both args and file.
Adjustments were needed for `if (!argc)` block:
This code actually means "pathspec is not present". Previously, pathspec
could only come from commandline arguments, so testing for `argc` was a
valid way of testing for the presence of pathspec. But this is no longer
true with `--pathspec-from-file`.
During the entire `--pathspec-from-file` story, I tried to keep its
behavior very close to giving pathspec on commandline, so that switching
from one to another doesn't involve any surprises.
However, throwing usage at user in the case of empty
`--pathspec-from-file` would puzzle because there's nothing wrong with
"usage" (that is, argc/argv array).
On the other hand, throwing usage in the old case also feels bad to me.
While it's less of a puzzle, I (as user) never liked the experience of
comparing my commandline to "usage", trying to spot a difference. Since
it's already known what the error is, it feels a lot better to give that
specific error to user.
Judging from [1] it doesn't seem that showing usage in this case was
important (the patch was to avoid segfault), and it doesn't fit into how
other commands react to empty pathspec (see for example `git add` with a
custom message).
Therefore, I decided to show new error text in both cases. In order to
continue testing for error early, I moved `parse_pathspec()` higher. Now
it happens before `read_cache()` / `hold_locked_index()` /
`setup_work_tree()`, which shouldn't cause any issues.

If we need to delete a higher stage entry in the index to place the file
at stage 0, then we'll lose that file's stat information. In such
situations we may still be able to detect that the file on disk is the
version we want (as noted by our comment in the code:
/* do not overwrite file if already present */
), but we do still need to update the mtime since we are creating a new
cache_entry for that file. Update the logic used to determine whether
we refresh a file's mtime.

A user discovered a case where they had a stack of 20 simple commits to
rebase, and the rebase would succeed in picking the first commit and
then error out with a pair of "Could not execute the todo command" and
"Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by
merge" messages.
Their steps actually made use of the -i flag, but I switched it over to
-m to make it simpler to trigger the bug. With that flag, it bisects
back to commit 68aa495b59 (rebase: implement --merge via the
interactive machinery, 2018-12-11), but that's misleading. If you
change the -m flag to --keep-empty, then the problem persists and will
bisect back to 356ee4659b (sequencer: try to commit without forking
'git commit', 2017-11-24)
After playing with the testcase for a bit, I discovered that added
--exec "sleep 1" to the command line makes the rebase succeed, making me
suspect there is some kind of discard and reloading of caches that lead
us to believe that something is stat dirty, but I didn't succeed in
digging any further than that.

check-ignore has two different modes, and neither of these modes has an
implementation that matches the documentation. These modes differ in
whether they just print paths or whether they also print the final
pattern matched by the path. The fix is different for both modes, so
I'll discuss both separately.
=== First (default) mode ===
The first mode is documented as:
For each pathname given via the command-line or from a file via
--stdin, check whether the file is excluded by .gitignore (or other
input files to the exclude mechanism) and output the path if it is
excluded.
However, it fails to do this because it did not account for negated
patterns. Commands other than check-ignore verify exclusion rules via
calling
... -> treat_one_path() -> is_excluded() -> last_matching_pattern()
while check-ignore has a call path of the form:
... -> check_ignore() -> last_matching_pattern()
The fact that the latter does not include the call to is_excluded()
means that it is susceptible to to messing up negated patterns (since
that is the only significant thing is_excluded() adds over
last_matching_pattern()). Unfortunately, we can't make it just call
is_excluded(), because the same codepath is used by the verbose mode
which needs to know the matched pattern in question. This brings us
to...
=== Second (verbose) mode ===
The second mode, known as verbose mode, references the first in the
documentation and says:
Also output details about the matching pattern (if any) for each
given pathname. For precedence rules within and between exclude
sources, see gitignore(5).
The "Also" means it will print patterns that match the exclude rules as
noted for the first mode, and also print which pattern matches. Unless
more information is printed than just pathname and pattern (which is not
done), this definition is somewhat ill-defined and perhaps even
self-contradictory for negated patterns: A path which matches a negated
exclude pattern is NOT excluded and thus shouldn't be printed by the
former logic, while it certainly does match one of the explicit patterns
and thus should be printed by the latter logic.
=== Resolution ==
Since the second mode exists to find out which pattern matches given
paths, and showing the user a pattern that begins with a '!' is
sufficient for them to figure out whether the pattern is excluded, the
existing behavior is desirable -- we just need to update the
documentation to match the implementation (i.e. it is about printing
which pattern is matched by paths, not about showing which paths are
excluded).
For the first or default mode, users just want to know whether a pattern
is excluded. As such, the existing documentation is desirable; change
the implementation to match the documented behavior.
Finally, also adjust a few tests in t0008 that were caught up by this
discrepancy in how negated paths were handled.

Two related changes, with separate rationale for each:
Rename the 'interactive' backend to 'merge' because:
* 'interactive' as a name caused confusion; this backend has been used
for many kinds of non-interactive rebases, and will probably be used
in the future for more non-interactive rebases than interactive ones
given that we are making it the default.
* 'interactive' is not the underlying strategy; merging is.
* the directory where state is stored is not called
.git/rebase-interactive but .git/rebase-merge.
Rename the 'am' backend to 'apply' because:
* Few users are familiar with git-am as a reference point.
* Related to the above, the name 'am' makes sentences in the
documentation harder for users to read and comprehend (they may read
it as the verb from "I am"); avoiding this difficult places a large
burden on anyone writing documentation about this backend to be very
careful with quoting and sentence structure and often forces
annoying redundancy to try to avoid such problems.
* Users stumble over pronunciation ("am" as in "I am a person not a
backend" or "am" as in "the first and thirteenth letters in the
alphabet in order are "A-M"); this may drive confusion when one user
tries to explain to another what they are doing.
* While "am" is the tool driving this backend, the tool driving git-am
is git-apply, and since we are driving towards lower-level tools
for the naming of the merge backend we may as well do so here too.
* The directory where state is stored has never been called
.git/rebase-am, it was always called .git/rebase-apply.
For all the reasons listed above:
* Modify the documentation to refer to the backends with the new names
* Provide a brief note in the documentation connecting the new names
to the old names in case users run across the old names anywhere
(e.g. in old release notes or older versions of the documentation)
* Change the (new) --am command line flag to --apply
* Rename some enums, variables, and functions to reinforce the new
backend names for us as well.

A large variety of rebase types are supported by the interactive
machinery, not just the explicitly interactive ones. These all share
the same code and write the same reflog messages, but the "-i" moniker
in those messages doesn't really have much meaning. It also becomes
somewhat distracting once we switch the default from the am-backend to
the interactive one. Just remove the "-i" from these messages.

In the past, we had different prompts for different types of rebases:
REBASE: for am-based rebases
REBASE-m: for merge-based rebases
REBASE-i: for interactive-based rebases
It's not clear why this distinction was necessary or helpful; when the
prompt was added in commit e75201963f ("Improve bash prompt to detect
various states like an unfinished merge", 2007-09-30), it simply added
these three different types. Perhaps there was a useful purpose back
then, but there have been some changes:
* The merge backend was deleted after being implemented on top of the
interactive backend, causing the prompt for merge-based rebases to
change from REBASE-m to REBASE-i.
* The interactive backend is used for multiple different types of
non-interactive rebases, so the "-i" part of the prompt doesn't
really mean what it used to.
* Rebase backends have gained more abilities and have a great deal of
overlap, sometimes making it hard to distinguish them.
* Behavioral differences between the backends have also been ironed
out.
* We want to change the default backend from am to interactive, which
means people would get "REBASE-i" by default if we didn't change
the prompt, and only if they specified --am or --whitespace or -C
would they get the "REBASE" prompt.
* In the future, we plan to have "--whitespace", "-C", and even "--am"
run the interactive backend once it can handle everything the
am-backend can.
For all these reasons, make the prompt for any type of rebase just be
"REBASE".

In the past, we dis-allowed rebases using the interactive backend from
performing a fast-forward to short-circuit the rebase operation. This
made sense for explicitly interactive rebases and some implicitly
interactive rebases, but certainly became overly stringent when the
merge backend was re-implemented via the interactive backend.
Just as the am-based rebase has always had to disable the fast-forward
based on a variety of conditions or flags (e.g. --signoff, --whitespace,
etc.), we need to do the same but now with a few more options. However,
continuing to use REBASE_FORCE for tracking this is problematic because
the interactive backend used it for a different purpose. (When
REBASE_FORCE wasn't set, the interactive backend would not fast-forward
the whole series but would fast-forward individual "pick" commits at the
beginning of the todo list, and then a squash or something would cause
it to start generating new commits.) So, introduce a new
allow_preemptive_ff flag contained within cmd_rebase() and use it to
track whether we are going to allow a pre-emptive fast-forward that
short-circuits the whole rebase.

t3432 had several stress tests for can_fast_forward(), whose intent was
to ensure we were using the optimization of just fast forwarding when
possible. However, these tests verified that fast forwards had happened
based on the output that rebase printed to the terminal. We can instead
test more directly that we actually fast-forwarded by checking the
reflog, which also has the side effect of making the tests applicable
for the merge/interactive backend.
This change does lose the distinction between "noop" and "noop-force",
but as stated in commit c9efc21683 ("t3432: test for --no-ff's
interaction with fast-forward", 2019-08-27) which introduced that
distinction: "These tests aren't supposed to endorse the status quo,
just test for what we're currently doing.".
This change does not actually run these tests with the merge/interactive
backend; instead this is just a preparatory commit. A subsequent commit
which fixes can_fast_forward() to work with that backend will then also
change t3432 to add tests of that backend as well.

restrict_revision in the original shell script was an excluded revision
range. It is also treated that way by the am-backend. In the
conversion from shell to C (see commit 6ab54d17be ("rebase -i:
implement the logic to initialize $revisions in C", 2018-08-28)), the
interactive-backend accidentally treated it as a positive revision
rather than a negated one.
This was missed as there were no tests in the testsuite that tested an
interactive rebase with fork-point behavior.

As established in the previous commit and commit b00bf1c9a8
(git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default, 2018-06-27), the
behavior for rebase with different backends in various edge or corner
cases is often more happenstance than design. This commit addresses
another such corner case: commits which "become empty".
A careful reader may note that there are two types of commits which would
become empty due to a rebase:
* [clean cherry-pick] Commits which are clean cherry-picks of upstream
commits, as determined by `git log --cherry-mark ...`. Re-applying
these commits would result in an empty set of changes and a
duplicative commit message; i.e. these are commits that have
"already been applied" upstream.
* [become empty] Commits which are not empty to start, are not clean
cherry-picks of upstream commits, but which still become empty after
being rebased. This happens e.g. when a commit has changes which
are a strict subset of the changes in an upstream commit, or when
the changes of a commit can be found spread across or among several
upstream commits.
Clearly, in both cases the changes in the commit in question are found
upstream already, but the commit message may not be in the latter case.
When cherry-mark can determine a commit is already upstream, then
because of how cherry-mark works this means the upstream commit message
was about the *exact* same set of changes. Thus, the commit messages
can be assumed to be fully interchangeable (and are in fact likely to be
completely identical). As such, the clean cherry-pick case represents a
case when there is no information to be gained by keeping the extra
commit around. All rebase types have always dropped these commits, and
no one to my knowledge has ever requested that we do otherwise.
For many of the become empty cases (and likely even most), we will also
be able to drop the commit without loss of information -- but this isn't
quite always the case. Since these commits represent cases that were
not clean cherry-picks, there is no upstream commit message explaining
the same set of changes. Projects with good commit message hygiene will
likely have the explanation from our commit message contained within or
spread among the relevant upstream commits, but not all projects run
that way. As such, the commit message of the commit being rebased may
have reasoning that suggests additional changes that should be made to
adapt to the new base, or it may have information that someone wants to
add as a note to another commit, or perhaps someone even wants to create
an empty commit with the commit message as-is.
Junio commented on the "become-empty" types of commits as follows[1]:
WRT a change that ends up being empty (as opposed to a change that
is empty from the beginning), I'd think that the current behaviour
is desireable one. "am" based rebase is solely to transplant an
existing history and want to stop much less than "interactive" one
whose purpose is to polish a series before making it publishable,
and asking for confirmation ("this has become empty--do you want to
drop it?") is more appropriate from the workflow point of view.

I would simply add that his arguments for "am"-based rebases actually
apply to all non-explicitly-interactive rebases. Also, since we are
stating that different cases should have different defaults, it may be
worth providing a flag to allow users to select which behavior they want
for these commits.
Introduce a new command line flag for selecting the desired behavior:
--empty={drop,keep,ask}
with the definitions:
drop: drop commits which become empty
keep: keep commits which become empty
ask: provide the user a chance to interact and pick what to do with
commits which become empty on a case-by-case basis
In line with Junio's suggestion, if the --empty flag is not specified,
pick defaults as follows:
explicitly interactive: ask
otherwise: drop

Different rebase backends have different treatment for commits which
start empty (i.e. have no changes relative to their parent), and the
--keep-empty option was added at some point to allow adjusting behavior.
The handling of commits which start empty is actually quite similar to
commit b00bf1c9a8 (git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default,
2018-06-27), which pointed out that the behavior for various backends is
often more happenstance than design. The specific change made in that
commit is actually quite relevant as well and much of the logic there
directly applies here.
It makes a lot of sense in 'git commit' to error out on the creation of
empty commits, unless an override flag is provided. However, once
someone determines that there is a rare case that merits using the
manual override to create such a commit, it is somewhere between
annoying and harmful to have to take extra steps to keep such
intentional commits around. Granted, empty commits are quite rare,
which is why handling of them doesn't get considered much and folks tend
to defer to existing (accidental) behavior and assume there was a reason
for it, leading them to just add flags (--keep-empty in this case) that
allow them to override the bad defaults. Fix the interactive backend so
that --keep-empty is the default, much like we did with
--allow-empty-message. The am backend should also be fixed to have
--keep-empty semantics for commits that start empty, but that is not
included in this patch other than a testcase documenting the failure.
Note that there was one test in t3421 which appears to have been written
expecting --keep-empty to not be the default as correct behavior. This
test was introduced in commit 00b8be5a4d ("add tests for rebasing of
empty commits", 2013-06-06), which was part of a series focusing on
rebase topology and which had an interesting original cover letter at
https://lore.kernel.org/git/1347949878-12578-1-git-send-email-martinvonz@gmail.com/
which noted
Your input especially appreciated on whether you agree with the
intent of the test cases.
and then went into a long example about how one of the many tests added
had several questions about whether it was correct. As such, I believe
most the tests in that series were about testing rebase topology with as
many different flags as possible and were not trying to state in general
how those flags should behave otherwise.

"git rebase -i" identifies existing commits in its todo file with
their abbreviated object name, which could become ambigous as it
goes to create new commits, and has a mechanism to avoid ambiguity
in the main part of its execution. A few other cases however were
not covered by the protection against ambiguity, which has been
corrected.
