84471a1213 cache: remove unused function 'have_git_dir'
This function was added in d2b0708 (2008-09-27, add have_git_dir()
function) as a preparation for adbc0b6 (2008-09-30, cygwin: Use native
Win32 API for stat).

However the second referenced commit was reverted in f66450a (2013-06-22,
cygwin: Remove the Win32 l/stat() implementation), so we don't need to
expose this wrapper function any more as a public API.

af2a651d2e checkout_entry(): clarify the use of topath[] parameter
The said function has this signature:

	extern int checkout_entry(struct cache_entry *ce,
				  const struct checkout *state,
				  char *topath);

At first glance, it might appear that the caller of checkout_entry()
can specify to which path the contents are written out by the last
parameter, and it is tempting to add "const" in front of its type.

In reality, however, topath[] is to point at a buffer to store the
temporary path generated by the callchain originating from this
function, and the temporary path is always short, much shorter than
the buffer prepared by its only caller in builtin/checkout-index.c.

Document the code a bit to clarify so that future callers know how
to use the function better.

41894ae3a3 Use simpler relative_path when set_git_dir
Using a relative_path as git_dir first appears in v1.5.6-1-g044bbbc.
It will make git_dir shorter only if git_dir is inside work_tree,
and this will increase performance. But my last refactor effort on
relative_path function (commit v1.8.3-rc2-12-ge02ca72) changed that.
Always use relative_path as git_dir may bring troubles like
$gmane/234434.

Because new relative_path is a combination of original relative_path
from path.c and original path_relative from quote.c, so in order to
restore the origin implementation, save the original relative_path
as remove_leading_path, and call it in setup.c.

662cc30cd0 format-patch: print in-body "From" only when needed
Commit a908047 taught format-patch the "--from" option,
which places the author ident into an in-body from header,
and uses the committer ident in the rfc822 from header.  The
documentation claims that it will omit the in-body header
when it is the same as the rfc822 header, but the code never
implemented that behavior.

This patch completes the feature by comparing the two idents
and doing nothing when they are the same (this is the same
as simply omitting the in-body header, as the two are by
definition indistinguishable in this case). This makes it
reasonable to turn on "--from" all the time (if it matches
your particular workflow), rather than only using it when
exporting other people's patches.

db5360f3f4 name-hash: refactor polymorphic index_name_exists()
Depending upon the absence or presence of a trailing '/' on the incoming
pathname, index_name_exists() checks either if a file is present in the
index or if a directory is represented within the index. Each caller
explicitly chooses the mode of operation by adding or removing a
trailing '/' before invoking index_name_exists().

Since these two modes of operations are disjoint and have no code in
common (one searches index_state.name_hash; the other dir_hash), they
can be represented more naturally as distinct functions: one to search
for a file, and one for a directory.

Splitting index searching into two functions relieves callers of the
artificial burden of having to add or remove a slash to select the mode
of operation; instead they just call the desired function. A subsequent
patch will take advantage of this benefit in order to eliminate the
requirement that the incoming pathname for a directory search must have
a trailing slash.

(In order to avoid disturbing in-flight topics, index_name_exists() is
retained as a thin wrapper dispatching either to index_dir_exists() or
index_file_exists().)

Allow a safer "rewind of the remote tip" push than blind "--force",
by requiring that the overwritten remote ref to be unchanged since
the new history to replace it was prepared.

The machinery is more or less ready.  The "--force" option is again
the big red button to override any safety, thanks to J6t's sanity
(the original round allowed --lockref to defeat --force).

The logic to choose the default implemented here is fragile
(e.g. "git fetch" after seeing a failure will update the
remote-tracking branch and will make the next "push" pass,
defeating the safety pretty easily).  It is suitable only for the
simplest workflows, and it may hurt users more than it helps them.

0016024277 git-config: always treat --int as 64-bit internally
When you run "git config --int", the maximum size of integer
you get depends on how git was compiled, and what it
considers to be an "int".

This is almost useful, because your scripts calling "git
config" will behave similarly to git internally. But relying
on this is dubious; you have to actually know how git treats
each value internally (e.g., int versus unsigned long),
which is not documented and is subject to change. And even
if you know it is "unsigned long", we do not have a
git-config option to match that behavior.

Furthermore, you may simply be asking git to store a value
on your behalf (e.g., configuration for a hook). In that
case, the relevant range check has nothing at all to do with
git, but rather with whatever scripting tools you are using
(and git has no way of knowing what the appropriate range is
there).

Not only is the range check useless, but it is actively
harmful, as there is no way at all for scripts to look
at config variables with large values. For instance, one
cannot reliably get the value of pack.packSizeLimit via
git-config. On an LP64 system, git happily uses a 64-bit
"unsigned long" internally to represent the value, but the
script cannot read any value over 2G.

Ideally, the "--int" option would simply represent an
arbitrarily large integer. For practical purposes, however,
a 64-bit integer is large enough, and is much easier to
implement (and if somebody overflows it, we will still
notice the problem, and not simply return garbage).

bd30c2e484 pathspec: support :(glob) syntax
:(glob)path differs from plain pathspec that it uses wildmatch with
WM_PATHNAME while the other uses fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME. The
difference lies in how '*' (and '**') is processed.

With the introduction of :(glob) and :(literal) and their global
options --[no]glob-pathspecs, the user can:

 - make everything literal by default via --noglob-pathspecs
   --literal-pathspecs cannot be used for this purpose as it
   disables _all_ pathspec magic.

 - individually turn on globbing with :(glob)

 - make everything globbing by default via --glob-pathspecs

 - individually turn off globbing with :(literal)

The implication behind this is, there is no way to gain the default
matching behavior (i.e. fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME). You either get
new globbing or literal. The old fnmatch behavior is considered
deprecated and discouraged to use.

5b0864070e sha1_object_info_extended: make type calculation optional
Each caller of sha1_object_info_extended sets up an
object_info struct to tell the function which elements of
the object it wants to get. Until now, getting the type of
the object has always been required (and it is returned via
the return type rather than a pointer in object_info).

This can involve actually opening a loose object file to
determine its type, or following delta chains to determine a
packed file's base type. These effects produce a measurable
slow-down when doing a "cat-file --batch-check" that does
not include %(objecttype).

This patch adds a "typep" query to struct object_info, so
that it can be optionally queried just like size and
disk_size. As a result, the return type of the function is
no longer the object type, but rather 0/-1 for success/error.

As there are only three callers total, we just fix up each
caller rather than keep a compatibility wrapper:

  1. The simpler sha1_object_info wrapper continues to
     always ask for and return the type field.

  2. The istream_source function wants to know the type, and
     so always asks for it.

  3. The cat-file batch code asks for the type only when
     %(objecttype) is part of the format string.

On linux.git, the best-of-five for running:

  $ git rev-list --objects --all >objects
  $ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)'

on a fully packed repository goes from:

  real    0m8.680s
  user    0m8.160s
  sys     0m0.512s

to:

  real    0m7.205s

25fba78d36 cat-file: disable object/refname ambiguity check for batch mode
A common use of "cat-file --batch-check" is to feed a list
of objects from "rev-list --objects" or a similar command.
In this instance, all of our input objects are 40-byte sha1
ids. However, cat-file has always allowed arbitrary revision
specifiers, and feeds the result to get_sha1().

Fortunately, get_sha1() recognizes a 40-byte sha1 before
doing any hard work trying to look up refs, meaning this
scenario should end up spending very little time converting
the input into an object sha1. However, since 798c35f
(get_sha1: warn about full or short object names that look
like refs, 2013-05-29), when we encounter this case, we
spend the extra effort to do a refname lookup anyway, just
to print a warning. This is further exacerbated by ca91993
(get_packed_ref_cache: reload packed-refs file when it
changes, 2013-06-20), which makes individual ref lookup more
expensive by requiring a stat() of the packed-refs file for
each missing ref.

With no patches, this is the time it takes to run:

  $ git rev-list --objects --all >objects
  $ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectname)' <objects

on the linux.git repository:

  real    1m13.494s
  user    0m25.924s
  sys     0m47.532s

If we revert ca91993, the packed-refs up-to-date check, it
gets a little better:

  real    0m54.697s
  user    0m21.692s
  sys     0m32.916s

but we are still spending quite a bit of time on ref lookup
(and we would not want to revert that patch, anyway, which
has correctness issues).  If we revert 798c35f, disabling
the warning entirely, we get a much more reasonable time:

  real    0m7.452s
  user    0m6.836s
  sys     0m0.608s

This patch does the moral equivalent of this final case (and
gets similar speedups). We introduce a global flag that
callers of get_sha1() can use to avoid paying the price for
the warning.

9c5e6c802c Convert "struct cache_entry *" to "const ..." wherever possible
I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is

 - diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE

 - name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED

 - preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
   builtin/update-index: obvious

 - entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
   fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
   *" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
   builtin/checkout.c

 - builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
   CE_UPDATE

Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.

So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.

The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then
this:

    diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h

47a5918536 cache.h: move remote/connect API out of it
The definition of "struct ref" in "cache.h", a header file so
central to the system, always confused me.  This structure is not
about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects.

It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs
the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object
transfer succeeds to what values.  It belongs to "remote.h" together
with "struct refspec".

While we are at it, also move the types and functions related to the
Git transport connection to a new header file connect.h

Using sha1_object_info_extended, a caller can find out the
type of an object, its size, and information about where it
is stored. In addition to the object's "true" size, it can
also be useful to know the size that the object takes on
disk (e.g., to generate statistics about which refs consume
space).

This patch adds a "disk_sizep" field to "struct object_info",
and fills it in during sha1_object_info_extended if it is

e02ca72f70 path.c: refactor relative_path(), not only strip prefix
Original design of relative_path() is simple, just strip the prefix
(*base) from the absolute path (*abs).

In most cases, we need a real relative path, such as: ../foo,
../../bar.  That's why there is another reimplementation
(path_relative()) in quote.c.

Borrow some codes from path_relative() in quote.c to refactor
relative_path() in path.c, so that it could return real relative
path, and user can reuse this function without reimplementing
his/her own.  The function path_relative() in quote.c will be
substituted, and I would use the new relative_path() function when
implementing the interactive git-clean later.

Different results for relative_path() before and after this refactor:

    abs path  base path  relative (original)  relative (refactor)
    ========  =========  ===================  ===================
    /a/b      /a/b       .                    ./
    /a/b/     /a/b       .                    ./
    /a        /a/b/      /a                   ../

    /x/y      /a/b/      /x/y                 ../../x/y

    a/b/      a/b/       .                    ./

    (null)    /a/b       (segfault)           ./

You may notice that return value "." has been changed to "./".
It is because:

 * Function quote_path_relative() in quote.c will show the relative
   path as "./" if abs(in) and base(prefix) are the same.

 * Function relative_path() is called only once (in setup.c), and
   it will be OK for the return value as "./" instead of ".".

3861253224 add a stat_validity struct
It can sometimes be useful to know whether a path in the
filesystem has been updated without going to the work of
opening and re-reading its content. We trust the stat()
information on disk already to handle index updates, and we
can use the same trick here.

This patch introduces a "stat_validity" struct which
encapsulates the concept of checking the stat-freshness of a
file. It is implemented on top of "struct stat_data" to
reuse the logic about which stat entries to trust for a
particular platform, but hides the complexity behind two
simple functions: check and update.

900f2814b8 refactor "ref->merge" flag
Each "struct ref" has a boolean flag that is set by the
fetch code to determine whether the ref should be marked as
"not-for-merge" or not when we write it out to FETCH_HEAD.

It would be useful to turn this boolean into a tri-state,
with the third state meaning "do not bother writing it out
to FETCH_HEAD at all". That would let us add extra refs to
the set of refs to be stored (e.g., to store copies of
things we fetched) without impacting FETCH_HEAD.

This patch turns it into an enum that covers the tri-state
case, and hopefully makes the code more explicit and easier
to read.

3d27b9b005 date.c: add parse_expiry_date()
"git reflog --expire=all" tries to expire reflog entries up to the
current second, because the approxidate() parser gives the current
timestamp for anything it does not understand (and it does not know
what time "all" means).  When the user tells us to expire "all" (or
set the expiration time to "now"), the user wants to remove all the
reflog entries (no reflog entry should record future time).

Just set it to ULONG_MAX and to let everything that is older that
timestamp expire.

While at it, allow "now" to be treated the same way for callers that
parse expiry date timestamp with this function.  Also use an error
reporting version of approxidate() to report misspelled date.  When
the user says e.g. "--expire=mnoday" to delete entries two days or
older on Wednesday, we wouldn't want the "unknown, default to now"
logic to kick in.

71c7b0538f add -u: only show pathless 'add -u' warning when changes exist outside cwd
A common workflow in large projects is to chdir into a subdirectory of
interest and only do work there:

	cd src
	vi foo.c
	make test
	git add -u
	git commit

The upcoming change to 'git add -u' behavior would not affect such a
workflow: when the only changes present are in the current directory,
'git add -u' will add all changes, and whether that happens via an
implicit "." or implicit ":/" parameter is an unimportant
implementation detail.

The warning about use of 'git add -u' with no pathspec is annoying
because it seemingly serves no purpose in this case.  So suppress the
warning unless there are changes outside the cwd that are not being
added.

A previous version of this patch ran two I/O-intensive diff-files
passes: one to find changes outside the cwd, and another to find
changes to add to the index within the cwd.  This version runs one
full-tree diff and decides for each change whether to add it or warn
and suppress it in update_callback.  As a result, even on very large
repositories "git add -u" will not be significantly slower than the
future default behavior ("git add -u :/"), and the slowdown relative
to "git add -u ." should be a useful clue to users of such
repositories to get into the habit of explicitly passing '.'.

e721c1544f checkout: avoid unnecessary match_pathspec calls
In checkout_paths() we do this

 - for all updated items, call match_pathspec
 - for all items, call match_pathspec (inside unmerge_cache)
 - for all items, call match_pathspec (for showing "path .. is unmerged)
 - for updated items, call match_pathspec and update paths

That's a lot of duplicate match_pathspec(s) and the function is not
exactly cheap to be called so many times, especially on large indexes.
This patch makes it call match_pathspec once per updated index entry,
save the result in ce_flags and reuse the results in the following
loops.

The changes in 0a1283b (checkout $tree $path: do not clobber local
changes in $path not in $tree - 2011-09-30) limit the affected paths
to ones we read from $tree. We do not do anything to other modified
entries in this case, so the "for all items" above could be modified
to "for all updated items". But..

The command's behavior now is modified slightly: unmerged entries that
match $path, but not updated by $tree, are now NOT touched.  Although
this should be considered a bug fix, not a regression. A new test is

c3c2e1a09b archive-zip: use deflateInit2() to ask for raw compressed data
We use the function git_deflate_init() -- which wraps the zlib function
deflateInit() -- to initialize compression of ZIP file entries.  This
results in compressed data prefixed with a two-bytes long header and
followed by a four-bytes trailer.  ZIP file entries consist of ZIP
headers and raw compressed data instead, so we remove the zlib wrapper
before writing the result.

We can ask zlib for the the raw compressed data without the unwanted
parts in the first place by using deflateInit2() and specifying a
negative number of bits to size the window.  For that purpose, factor
out the function do_git_deflate_init() and add git_deflate_init_raw(),
which wraps it.  Then use the latter in archive-zip.c and get rid of
the code that stripped the zlib header and trailer.

Also rename the helper function zlib_deflate() to zlib_deflate_raw()
to reflect the change.

Thus we avoid generating data that we throw away anyway, the code
becomes shorter and some magic constants are removed.

2cd83d10bb setup: suppress implicit "." work-tree for bare repos
If an explicit GIT_DIR is given without a working tree, we
implicitly assume that the current working directory should
be used as the working tree. E.g.,:

  GIT_DIR=/some/repo.git git status

would compare against the cwd.

Unfortunately, we fool this rule for sub-invocations of git
by setting GIT_DIR internally ourselves. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails, as we expect
  git config alias.st status
  git status ;# does not fail, but should

What happens is that we run setup_git_directory when doing
alias lookup (since we need to see the config), set GIT_DIR
as a result, and then leave GIT_WORK_TREE blank (because we
do not have one). Then when we actually run the status
command, we do setup_git_directory again, which sees our
explicit GIT_DIR and uses the cwd as an implicit worktree.

It's tempting to argue that we should be suppressing that
second invocation of setup_git_directory, as it could use
the values we already found in memory. However, the problem
still exists for sub-processes (e.g., if "git status" were
an external command).

You can see another example with the "--bare" option, which
sets GIT_DIR explicitly. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails
  git --bare status ;# does NOT fail

We need some way of telling sub-processes "even though
GIT_DIR is set, do not use cwd as an implicit working tree".
We could do it by putting a special token into
GIT_WORK_TREE, but the obvious choice (an empty string) has
some portability problems.

Instead, we add a new boolean variable, GIT_IMPLICIT_WORK_TREE,
which suppresses the use of cwd as a working tree when
GIT_DIR is set. We trigger the new variable when we know we
are in a bare setting.

The variable is left intentionally undocumented, as this is
an internal detail (for now, anyway). If somebody comes up
with a good alternate use for it, and once we are confident
we have shaken any bugs out of it, we can consider promoting
it further.

a6f7f9a325 environment: add GIT_PREFIX to local_repo_env
The GIT_PREFIX variable is set based on our location within
the working tree. It should therefore be cleared whenever
GIT_WORK_TREE is cleared.

In practice, this doesn't cause any bugs, because none of
the sub-programs we invoke with local_repo_env cleared
actually care about GIT_PREFIX. But this is the right thing
to do, and future proofs us against that assumption changing.

While we're at it, let's define a GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT
macro; this avoids repetition of the string literal, which
can help catch any spelling mistakes in the code.

2163e5dbb4 cache.h: drop LOCAL_REPO_ENV_SIZE
We keep a static array of variables that should be cleared
when invoking a sub-process on another repo. We statically
size the array with the LOCAL_REPO_ENV_SIZE macro so that
any readers do not have to count it themselves.

As it turns out, no readers actually use the macro, and it
creates a maintenance headache, as modifications to the
array need to happen in two places (one to add the new
element, and another to bump the size).

Since it's NULL-terminated, we can just drop the size macro
entirely. While we're at it, we'll clean up some comments
around it, and add a new mention of it at the top of the
list of environment variable macros. Even though
local_repo_env is right below that list, it's easy to miss,
and additions to that list should consider local_repo_env.

2092678cd5 name-hash.c: fix endless loop with core.ignorecase=true
With core.ignorecase=true, name-hash.c builds a case insensitive index of
all tracked directories. Currently, the existing cache entry structures are
added multiple times to the same hashtable (with different name lengths and
hash codes). However, there's only one dir_next pointer, which gets
completely messed up in case of hash collisions. In the worst case, this
causes an endless loop if ce == ce->dir_next (see t7062).

Use a separate hashtable and separate structures for the directory index
so that each directory entry has its own next pointer. Use reference
counting to track which directory entry contains files.

There are only slight changes to the name-hash.c API:
- new free_name_hash() used by read_cache.c::discard_index()
- remove_name_hash() takes an additional index_state parameter
- index_name_exists() for a directory (trailing '/') may return a cache
  entry that has been removed (CE_UNHASHED). This is not a problem as the
  return value is only used to check if the directory exists (dir.c) or to
  normalize casing of directory names (read-cache.c).

Getting rid of cache_entry.dir_next reduces memory consumption, especially
with core.ignorecase=false (which doesn't use that member at all).

With core.ignorecase=true, building the directory index is slightly faster
as we add / check the parent directory first (instead of going through all
directory levels for each file in the index). E.g. with WebKit (~200k
files, ~7k dirs), time spent in lazy_init_name_hash is reduced from 176ms
to 130ms.

75e5c0dc55 push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCE
When we push to update an existing ref, if:

 * the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or
 * the object we are pushing is not a commit,

it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again,
as the old and new objects will not "merge".  We should explain that
the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is
involved in such a case.

If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do
not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be
merged.  In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like
non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in
practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work
to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to
update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work
as a suggestion most of the time.  And if the object at the tip is
not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent
damage.  As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user
will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now
the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved.

In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the
client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the
ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from
there and integrate before pushing again.

Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages
appropriately.

simple enough to call "strcmp". Matching keys with

does it in an ad-hoc way, usually involving error-prone
pointer arithmetic.

c08e4d5b5c Enable minimal stat checking
Specifically the fields uid, gid, ctime, ino and dev are set to zero
by JGit. Other implementations, eg. Git in cygwin are allegedly also
somewhat incompatible with Git For Windows and on *nix platforms
the resolution of the timestamps may differ.

Any stat checking by git will then need to check content, which may
be very slow, particularly on Windows. Since mtime and size
is typically enough we should allow the user to tell git to avoid
checking these fields if they are set to zero in the index.

This change introduces a core.checkstat config option where the
the user can select to check all fields (default), or just size
and the whole second part of mtime (minimal).

256b9d70a4 push: fix "refs/tags/ hierarchy cannot be updated without --force"
When pushing to update a branch with a commit that is not a
descendant of the commit at the tip, a wrong message "already
exists" was given, instead of the correct "non-fast-forward", if we
do not have the object sitting in the destination repository at the
tip of the ref we are updating.

The primary cause of the bug is that the check in a new helper
function is_forwardable() assumed both old and new objects are
available and can be checked, which is not always the case.

The way the caller uses the result of this function is also wrong.
If the helper says "we do not want to let this push go through", the
caller unconditionally translates it into "we blocked it because the
destination already exists", which is not true at all in this case.

Fix this by doing these three things:

 * Remove unnecessary not_forwardable from "struct ref"; it is only
   used inside set_ref_status_for_push();

 * Make "refs/tags/" the only hierarchy that cannot be replaced
   without --force;

 * Remove the misguided attempt to force that everything that
   updates an existing ref has to be a commit outside "refs/tags/"
   hierarchy.

The policy last one tried to implement may later be resurrected and
extended to ensure fast-forwardness (defined as "not losing
objects", extending from the traditional "not losing commits from
the resulting history") when objects that are not commit are
involved (e.g. an annotated tag in hierarchies outside refs/tags),
but such a logic belongs to "is this a fast-forward?" check that is
done by ref_newer(); is_forwardable(), which is now removed, was not
the right place to do so.

Commit a469a10 wraps some error calls in macros to give the
compiler a chance to do more static analysis on their
constant -1 return value.  We limit the use of these macros
to __GNUC__, since gcc is the primary beneficiary of the new
information, and because we use GNU features for handling
variadic macros.

However, clang also defines __GNUC__, but generates warnings
with -Wunused-value when these macros are used in a void
context, because the constant "-1" ends up being useless.
Gcc does not complain about this case (though it is unclear
if it is because it is smart enough to see what we are
doing, or too dumb to realize that the -1 is unused).  We
can squelch the warning by just disabling these macros when
clang is in use.
