3389e78ec8 submodule: ignore trailing slash in relative url
This is similar to the previous patch, though no user reported a bug and
I could not find a regressive behavior.

However it is a good thing to be strict on the output and for that we
always omit a trailing slash.

087885049e submodule: ignore trailing slash on superproject URL
Before 63e95beb0 (2016-04-15, submodule: port resolve_relative_url from
shell to C), it did not matter if the superprojects URL had a trailing
slash or not. It was just chopped off as one of the first steps
(The "remoteurl=${remoteurl%/}" near the beginning of
resolve_relative_url(), which was removed in said commit).

When porting this to the C version, an off-by-one error was introduced
and we did not check the actual last character to be a slash, but the
NULL delimiter.

Reintroduce the behavior from before 63e95beb0, to ignore the trailing
slash.

75a6315f74 ls-files: add pathspec matching for submodules
Pathspecs can be a bit tricky when trying to apply them to submodules.
The main challenge is that the pathspecs will be with respect to the
superproject and not with respect to paths in the submodule.  The
approach this patch takes is to pass in the identical pathspec from the
superproject to the submodule in addition to the submodule-prefix, which
is the path from the root of the superproject to the submodule, and then
we can compare an entry in the submodule prepended with the
submodule-prefix to the pathspec in order to determine if there is a
match.

This patch also permits the pathspec logic to perform a prefix match against
submodules since a pathspec could refer to a file inside of a submodule.
Due to limitations in the wildmatch logic, a prefix match is only done
literally.  If any wildcard character is encountered we'll simply punt
and produce a false positive match.  More accurate matching will be done
once inside the submodule.  This is due to the superproject not knowing
what files could exist in the submodule.

e77aa336f1 ls-files: optionally recurse into submodules
Allow ls-files to recognize submodules in order to retrieve a list of
files from a repository's submodules.  This is done by forking off a
process to recursively call ls-files on all submodules. Use top-level
--super-prefix option to pass a path to the submodule which it can
use to prepend to output or pathspec matching logic.

3f7bd767ed files_read_raw_ref: avoid infinite loop on broken symlinks
Our ref resolution first runs lstat() on any path we try to
look up, because we want to treat symlinks specially (by
resolving them manually and considering them symrefs). But
if the results of `readlink` do _not_ look like a ref, we
fall through to treating it like a normal file, and just
read the contents of the linked path.

Since fcb7c76 (resolve_ref_unsafe(): close race condition
reading loose refs, 2013-06-19), that "normal file" code
path will stat() the file and if we see ENOENT, will jump
back to the lstat(), thinking we've seen inconsistent
results between the two calls. But for a symbolic ref, this
isn't a race: the lstat() found the symlink, and the stat()
is looking at the path it points to. We end up in an
infinite loop calling lstat() and stat().

We can fix this by avoiding the retry-on-inconsistent jump
when we know that we found a symlink. While we're at it,
let's add a comment explaining why the symlink case gets to
this code in the first place; without that, it is not
obvious that the correct solution isn't to avoid the stat()
code path entirely.

5b33cb1fd7 get_short_sha1: make default disambiguation configurable
When we find ambiguous short sha1s, we may get a
disambiguation rule from our caller's context. But if we
don't, we fall back to treating all sha1s the same, even
though most projects will tend to refer only to commits by
their short sha1s.

This patch introduces a configuration option that lets the
user pick a different fallback (e.g., only commits). It's
possible that we may want to make this the default, but it's
a good idea to start as a config option for two reasons:

  1. It lets people experiment with this and see if it's a
     good idea (i.e., the "tend to" above is an assumption;
     we don't really know if this will break some obscure
     cases).

  2. Even if we do flip the default, it gives people an
     escape hatch if it causes problems (you can sometimes
     override it by asking for "1234^{tree}", but not all
     combinations are possible).

1ffa26c461 get_short_sha1: list ambiguous objects on error
When the user gives us an ambiguous short sha1, we print an
error and refuse to resolve it. In some cases, the next step
is for them to feed us more characters (e.g., if they were
retyping or cut-and-pasting from a full sha1). But in other
cases, that might be all they have. For example, an old
commit message may have used a 7-character hex that was
unique at the time, but is now ambiguous.  Git doesn't
provide any information about the ambiguous objects it
found, so it's hard for the user to find out which one they
probably meant.

This patch teaches get_short_sha1() to list the sha1s of the
objects it found, along with a few bits of information that
may help the user decide which one they meant. Here's what
it looks like on git.git:

  $ git rev-parse b2e1
  error: short SHA1 b2e1 is ambiguous
  hint: The candidates are:
  hint:   b2e1196 tag v2.8.0-rc1
  hint:   b2e11d1 tree
  hint:   b2e1632 commit 2007-11-14 - Merge branch 'bs/maint-commit-options'
  hint:   b2e1759 blob
  hint:   b2e18954 blob
  hint:   b2e1895c blob
  fatal: ambiguous argument 'b2e1': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
  Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
  'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

We show the tagname for tags, and the date and subject for
commits. For trees and blobs, in theory we could dig in the
history to find the paths at which they were present. But
that's very expensive (on the order of 30s for the kernel),
and it's not likely to be all that helpful. Most short
references are to commits, so the useful information is
typically going to be that the object in question _isn't_ a
commit. So it's silly to spend a lot of CPU preemptively
digging up the path; the user can do it themselves if they
really need to.

And of course it's somewhat ironic that we abbreviate the
sha1s in the disambiguation hint. But full sha1s would cause
annoying line wrapping for the commit lines, and presumably
the user is going to just re-issue their command immediately
with the corrected sha1.

We also restrict the list to those that match any
disambiguation hint. E.g.:

  $ git rev-parse b2e1:foo
  error: short SHA1 b2e1 is ambiguous
  hint: The candidates are:
  hint:   b2e1196 tag v2.8.0-rc1
  hint:   b2e11d1 tree
  hint:   b2e1632 commit 2007-11-14 - Merge branch 'bs/maint-commit-options'
  fatal: Invalid object name 'b2e1'.

does not bother reporting the blobs, because they cannot
work as a treeish.

fad6b9e590 for_each_abbrev: drop duplicate objects
If an object appears multiple times in the object database
(e.g., in both loose and packed form, or in two separate
packs), the disambiguation machinery may see it more than
once. The get_short_sha1() function handles this already,
but for_each_abbrev() blindly fires the callback for each
instance it finds.

We can fix this by collecting the output in a sha1 array and
de-duplicating it.  As a bonus, the sort done for the
de-duplication means that our output will be stable,
regardless of the order in which the objects are found.

Note that the old code normalized the callback's output to
0/1 to store in the 1-bit ds->ambiguous flag (which both
halted the iteration and was returned from the
for_each_abbrev function). Now that we are using sha1_array,
we can return the real value. In practice, it doesn't matter
as the sole caller only ever returns 0.

16ddcd403b sha1_array: let callbacks interrupt iteration
The callbacks for iterating a sha1_array must have a void
return.  This is unlike our usual for_each semantics, where
a callback may interrupt iteration and have its value
propagated. Let's switch it to the usual form, which will
enable its use in more places (e.g., where we are replacing
an existing iteration with a different data structure).

5d5def2aa5 get_short_sha1: parse tags when looking for treeish
The treeish disambiguation function tries to peel tags, but
it does so by calling:

  deref_tag(lookup_object(sha1), ...);

This will only work if we have previously looked at the tag
and created a "struct tag" for it. Since parsing revision
arguments typically happens before anything else, this is
usually not the case, and we would fail to peel the tag (we
are lucky that deref_tag() gracefully handles the NULL and
does not segfault).

Instead, we can use parse_object(). Note that this is the
same fix done by 94d75d1 (get_short_sha1(): correctly
disambiguate type-limited abbreviation, 2013-07-01), but
that commit fixed only the committish disambiguator, and
left the bug in the treeish one.

8a10fea49b get_sha1: propagate flags to child functions
The get_sha1() function is actually implementation by many
sub-functions, but we do not always pass our flags around to
all of those functions. As a result, we may forget that our
caller asked us to resolve with GET_SHA1_QUIETLY and output
messages. The two triggerable cases are:

  1. Resolving treeish:path will resolve the "treeish"
     portion using GET_SHA1_TREEISH, dropping all other
     flags.

  2. The peel_onion() function did not take flags at all
     but recurses to get_sha1_1(), which does.

The solution for both is to bitwise-OR their new flags with
the existing ones (after dropping any mutually exclusive
disambiguation flags).

This bug can trigger with "git rev-parse --quiet", which
asks for quiet resolution. But it can also happen in a more
vanilla code path when we do a follow-up ONLY_TO_DIE
invocation of get_sha1(), and that's what the tests check.

7243ffdd78 get_sha1: avoid repeating ourselves via ONLY_TO_DIE
When the revision code cannot parse an argument like
"HEAD:foo", it will call maybe_die_on_misspelt_object_name(),
which re-runs get_sha1() with an extra ONLY_TO_DIE flag. We
then spend more effort to generate a better error message.

Unfortunately, a side effect is that our second call may
repeat the same error messages from the original get_sha1()
call. You can see this with:

  $ git show 0017
  error: short SHA1 0017 is ambiguous.
  error: short SHA1 0017 is ambiguous.
  fatal: ambiguous argument '0017': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
  Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
  'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

where the second "error:" line comes from the ONLY_TO_DIE
call.

To fix this, we can make ONLY_TO_DIE imply QUIETLY. This is
a little odd, because the whole point of ONLY_TO_DIE is to
output error messages. But what we want to do is tell the
rest of the get_sha1() code (particularly get_sha1_1()) that
the _regular_ messages should be quiet, but the only-to-die
ones should not.

779a206632 gitweb: use highlight's shebang detection
The "highlight" binary can, in some cases, determine the language type
by the means of file contents, for example the shebang in the first line
for some scripting languages.  Make use of this autodetection for files
which syntax is not known by gitweb.  In that case, pass the blob
contents to "highlight --force"; the parameter is needed to make it
always generate HTML output (which includes HTML-escaping).

Although we now run highlight on files which do not end up highlighted,
performance is virtually unaffected because when we call highlight, it
is used for escaping HTML.  In the case that highlight is used, gitweb
calls sanitize() instead of esc_html(), and the latter is significantly
slower (it does more, being roughly a superset of sanitize()).  Simple
benchmark comparing performance of 'blob' view of files without syntax
highlighting in gitweb before and after this change indicates ±1%
difference in request time for all file types.  Benchmark was performed
on local instance on Debian, using Apache/2.4.23 web server and CGI.

Document the feature and improve syntax highlight documentation, add
test to ensure gitweb doesn't crash when language detection is used.

6311cfaf93 init: do not set unnecessary core.worktree
The function needs_work_tree_config() that is called from
create_default_files() is supposed to be fed the path to ".git" that
looks as if it is at the top of the working tree, and decide if that
location matches the actual worktree being used.  This comparison allows
"git init" to decide if core.worktree needs to be recorded in the
working tree.

In the current code, however, we feed the return value from
get_git_dir(), which can be totally different from what the function
expects when "gitdir" file is involved.  Instead of giving the path to
the ".git" at the top of the working tree, we end up feeding the actual
path that the file points at.

This original location of ".git" however is only known to init_db().
Make init_db() save it and have it passed to create_default_files() as a
new parameter, which passes the correct location down to
needs_work_tree_config() to fix this.

fe9aa0b22e init: correct re-initialization from a linked worktree
When 'git init' is called from a linked worktree, we treat '.git'
dir (which is $GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/something) as the main
'.git' (i.e. $GIT_COMMON_DIR) and populate the whole repository skeleton
in there. It does not harm anything (*) but it is still wrong.

Since 'git init' calls set_git_dir() at preparation time, which
indirectly calls get_common_dir() and correctly detects multiple
worktree setup, all git_path_buf() calls in create_default_files() will
return correct paths in both single and multiple worktree setups. The
only thing left is copy_templates(), which targets $GIT_DIR, not
$GIT_COMMON_DIR.

Fix that with get_git_common_dir(). This function will return $GIT_DIR
in single-worktree setup, so we don't have to make a special case for
multiple-worktree here.

(*) It does in fact, thanks to another bug. More on that later.

A recently introduced test checks the result of 'git status' after
setting the executable bit on a file. This check does not yield the
expected result when the filesystem does not support the executable

What we care about is that a file added with "--chmod=+x" has
executable bit in the index and that "--chmod=+x" (or any other
options for that matter) does not muck with working tree files.
The former is tested by other existing tests, so let's check the

The new regexec_buf() function operates on buffers with an explicitly
specified length, rather than NUL-terminated strings.

We need to use this function whenever the buffer we want to pass to
regexec(3) may have been mmap(2)ed (and is hence not NUL-terminated).

Note: the original motivation for this patch was to fix a bug where
`git diff -G <regex>` would crash. This patch converts more callers,
though, some of which allocated to construct NUL-terminated strings,
or worse, modified buffers to temporarily insert NULs while calling
regexec(3).  By converting them to use regexec_buf(), the code has

db5dfa3314 regex: -G<pattern> feeds a non NUL-terminated string to regexec() and fails
When our pickaxe code feeds file contents to regexec(), it implicitly
assumes that the file contents are read into implicitly NUL-terminated
buffers (i.e. that we overallocate by 1, appending a single '\0').

This is not so.

In particular when the file contents are simply mmap()ed, we can be
virtually certain that the buffer is preceding uninitialized bytes, or
invalid pages.

Note that the test we add here is known to be flakey: we simply cannot
know whether the byte following the mmap()ed ones is a NUL or not.

Typically, on Linux the test passes. On Windows, it fails virtually
every time due to an access violation (that's a segmentation fault for
you Unix-y people out there). And Windows would be correct: the
regexec() call wants to operate on a regular, NUL-terminated string,
there is no NUL in the mmap()ed memory range, and it is undefined
whether the next byte is even legal to access.

When run with --valgrind it demonstrates quite clearly the breakage, of
course.

Being marked with `test_expect_failure`, this test will sometimes be
declare "TODO fixed", even if it only passes by mistake.

This test case represents a Minimal, Complete and Verifiable Example of

b829b9439a checkout: fix ambiguity check in subdir
The two functions in parse_branchname_arg(), verify_non_filename and
check_filename, need correct prefix in order to reconstruct the paths
and check for their existence. With NULL prefix, they just check paths
at top dir instead.

5b162879e9 blame: honor the diff heuristic options and config
Teach "git blame" and "git annotate" the --compaction-heuristic and
--indent-heuristic options that are now supported by "git diff".

Also teach them to honor the `diff.compactionHeuristic` and
`diff.indentHeuristic` configuration options.

It would be conceivable to introduce separate configuration options for
"blame" and "annotate"; for example `blame.compactionHeuristic` and
`blame.indentHeuristic`. But it would be confusing to users if blame
output is inconsistent with diff output, so it makes more sense for them
to respect the same configuration.

433860f3d0 diff: improve positioning of add/delete blocks in diffs
Some groups of added/deleted lines in diffs can be slid up or down,
because lines at the edges of the group are not unique. Picking good
shifts for such groups is not a matter of correctness but definitely has
a big effect on aesthetics. For example, consider the following two
diffs. The first is what standard Git emits:

    --- a/9c572b21dd090a1e5c5bb397053bf8043ffe7fb4:git-send-email.perl
    +++ b/6dcfa306f2b67b733a7eb2d7ded1bc9987809edb:git-send-email.perl

This patch teaches Git to pick better positions for such "diff sliders"
using heuristics that take the positions of nearby blank lines and the
indentation of nearby lines into account.

The existing Git code basically always shifts such "sliders" as far down
in the file as possible. The only exception is when the slider can be
aligned with a group of changed lines in the other file, in which case
Git favors depicting the change as one add+delete block rather than one
add and a slightly offset delete block. This naive algorithm often
yields ugly diffs.

Commit d634d61ed6 improved the situation somewhat by preferring to
position add/delete groups to make their last line a blank line, when
that is possible. This heuristic does more good than harm, but (1) it
can only help if there are blank lines in the right places, and (2)
always picks the last blank line, even if there are others that might be
better. The end result is that it makes perhaps 1/3 as many errors as
the default Git algorithm, but that still leaves a lot of ugly diffs.

This commit implements a new and much better heuristic for picking
optimal "slider" positions using the following approach: First observe
that each hypothetical positioning of a diff slider introduces two
splits: one between the context lines preceding the group and the first
added/deleted line, and the other between the last added/deleted line
and the first line of context following it. It tries to find the
positioning that creates the least bad splits.

Splits are evaluated based only on the presence and locations of nearby
blank lines, and the indentation of lines near the split. Basically, it
prefers to introduce splits adjacent to blank lines, between lines that
are indented less, and between lines with the same level of indentation.
In more detail:

1. It measures the following characteristics of a proposed splitting
   position in a `struct split_measurement`:

   * the number of blank lines above the proposed split
   * whether the line directly after the split is blank
   * the number of blank lines following that line
   * the indentation of the nearest non-blank line above the split
   * the indentation of the line directly below the split
   * the indentation of the nearest non-blank line after that line

2. It combines the measured attributes using a bunch of
   empirically-optimized weighting factors to derive a `struct
   split_score` that measures the "badness" of splitting the text at
   that position.

3. It combines the `split_score` for the top and the bottom of the
   slider at each of its possible positions, and selects the position
   that has the best `split_score`.

I determined the initial set of weighting factors by collecting a corpus
of Git histories from 29 open-source software projects in various
programming languages. I generated many diffs from this corpus, and
determined the best positioning "by eye" for about 6600 diff sliders. I
used about half of the repositories in the corpus (corresponding to
about 2/3 of the sliders) as a training set, and optimized the weights
against this corpus using a crude automated search of the parameter
space to get the best agreement with the manually-determined values.
Then I tested the resulting heuristic against the full corpus. The
results are summarized in the following table, in column `indent-1`:

In this table, the numbers are the count and percentage of human-rated
sliders that the corresponding algorithm got *wrong*. The columns are

* "repository" - the name of the repository used. I used the diffs
  between successive non-merge commits on the HEAD branch of the
  corresponding repository.

* "count" - the number of sliders that were human-rated. I chose most,
  but not all, sliders to rate from those among which the various
  algorithms gave different answers.

* "Git 2.9.0" - the default algorithm used by `git diff` in Git 2.9.0.

* "compaction" - the heuristic used by `git diff --compaction-heuristic`
  in Git 2.9.0.

* "compaction-fixed" - the heuristic used by `git diff
  --compaction-heuristic` after the fixes from earlier in this patch
  series. Note that the results are not dramatically different than
  those for "compaction". Both produce non-ideal diffs only about 1/3 as
  often as the default `git diff`.

* "indent-1" - the new `--indent-heuristic` algorithm, using the first
  set of weighting factors, determined as described above.

* "indent-2" - the new `--indent-heuristic` algorithm, using the final
  set of weighting factors, determined as described below.

* `*` - indicates that repo was part of training set used to determine
  the first set of weighting factors.

The fact that the heuristic performed nearly as well on the test set as
on the training set in column "indent-1" is a good indication that the
heuristic was not over-trained. Given that fact, I ran a second round of
optimization, using the entire corpus as the training set. The resulting
set of weights gave the results in column "indent-2". These are the
weights included in this patch.

The final result gives consistently and significantly better results
across the whole corpus than either `git diff` or `git diff
--compaction-heuristic`. It makes only about 1/30 as many errors as the
former and about 1/10 as many errors as the latter. (And a good fraction
of the remaining errors are for diffs that involve weirdly-formatted
code, sometimes apparently machine-generated.)

The tools that were used to do this optimization and analysis, along
with the human-generated data values, are recorded in a separate project
[1].

This patch adds a new command-line option `--indent-heuristic`, and a
new configuration setting `diff.indentHeuristic`, that activate this
heuristic. This interface is only meant for testing purposes, and should
be finalized before including this change in any release.

610d55af0f add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff
machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index
differs from the version on disk.

As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index,
which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of
the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

480871e09e format-patch: show base info before email signature
Any text below the "-- " for the email signature gets treated as part of
the signature, and many mail clients will trim it from the quoted text
for a reply.  Move it above the signature, so people can reply to it
more easily.

Similarly, when producing the patch as a MIME attachment, the
original code placed the base info after the attached part, which
would be discarded.  Move the base info to the end of the part,
still inside the part boundary.

Add tests for the exact format of the email signature, and add tests
to ensure that the base info appears before the email signature when
producing a plain-text output, and that it appears before the part
boundary when producing a MIME attachment.

4543926ba8 init: reset cached config when entering new repo
After we copy the templates into place, we re-read the
config in case we copied in a default config file. But since
git_config() is backed by a cache these days, it's possible
that the call will not actually touch the filesystem at all;
we need to tell it that something has changed behind the
scenes.

Note that we also need to reset the shared_repository
config. At first glance, it seems like this should probably
just be folded into git_config_clear(). But unfortunately
that is not quite right. The shared repository value may
come from config, _or_ it may have been set manually. So
only the caller who knows whether or not they set it is the
one who can clear it (and indeed, if you _do_ put it into
git_config_clear(), then many tests fail, as we have to
clear the config cache any time we set a new config
variable).

There are three tests here. The first two actually pass
already, though it's largely luck: they just don't happen to
actually read any config before we enter the new repo.

But the third one does fail without this patch; we look at
core.sharedrepository while creating the directory, but need
to make sure the value from the template config overrides
it.

b9605bc4f2 config: only read .git/config from configured repos
When git_config() runs, it looks in the system, user-wide,
and repo-level config files. It gets the latter by calling
git_pathdup(), which in turn calls get_git_dir(). If we
haven't set up the git repository yet, this may simply
return ".git", and we will look at ".git/config".  This
seems like it would be helpful (presumably we haven't set up
the repository yet, so it tries to find it), but it turns
out to be a bad idea for a few reasons:

  - it's not sufficient, and therefore hides bugs in a
    confusing way. Config will be respected if commands are
    run from the top-level of the working tree, but not from
    a subdirectory.

  - it's not always true that we haven't set up the
    repository _yet_; we may not want to do it at all. For
    instance, if you run "git init /some/path" from inside
    another repository, it should not load config from the
    existing repository.

  - there might be a path ".git/config", but it is not the
    actual repository we would find via setup_git_directory().
    This may happen, e.g., if you are storing a git
    repository inside another git repository, but have
    munged one of the files in such a way that the
    inner repository is not valid (e.g., by removing HEAD).

We have at least two bugs of the second type in git-init,
introduced by ae5f677 (lazily load core.sharedrepository,
2016-03-11). It causes init to use git_configset(), which
loads all of the config, including values from the current
repo (if any).  This shows up in two ways:

  1. If we happen to be in an existing repository directory,
     we'll read and respect core.sharedrepository from it,
     even though it should have no bearing on the new
     repository. A new test in t1301 covers this.

  2. Similarly, if we're in an existing repo that sets
     core.logallrefupdates, that will cause init to fail to
     set it in a newly created repository (because it thinks
     that the user's templates already did so). A new test
     in t0001 covers this.

We also need to adjust an existing test in t1302, which
gives another example of why this patch is an improvement.

That test creates an embedded repository with a bogus
core.repositoryformatversion of "99". It wants to make sure
that we actually stop at the bogus repo rather than
continuing upward to find the outer repo. So it checks that
"git config core.repositoryformatversion" returns 99. But
that only works because we blindly read ".git/config", even
though we _know_ we're in a repository whose vintage we do
not understand.

After this patch, we avoid reading config from the unknown
vintage repository at all, which is a safer choice.  But we
need to tweak the test, since core.repositoryformatversion
will not return 99; it will claim that it could not find the
variable at all.

28a4e58021 diff: always try to set up the repository
If we see an explicit "--no-index", we do not bother calling
setup_git_directory_gently() at all. This means that we may
miss out on reading repo-specific config.

It's arguable whether this is correct or not. If we were
designing from scratch, making "git diff --no-index"
completely ignore the repository makes some sense. But we
are nowhere near scratch, so let's look at the existing
behavior:

  1. If you're in the top-level of a repository and run an
     explicit "diff --no-index", the config subsystem falls
     back to reading ".git/config", and we will respect repo
     config.

  2. If you're in a subdirectory of a repository, then we
     still try to read ".git/config", but it generally
     doesn't exist. So "diff --no-index" there does not
     respect repo config.

  3. If you have $GIT_DIR set in the environment, we read
     and respect $GIT_DIR/config,

  4. If you run "git diff /tmp/foo /tmp/bar" to get an
     implicit no-index, we _do_ run the repository setup,
     and set $GIT_DIR (or respect an existing $GIT_DIR
     variable). We find the repo config no matter where we
     started, and respect it.

So we already respect the repository config in a number of
common cases, and case (2) is the only one that does not.
And at least one of our tests, t4034, depends on case (1)
behaving as it does now (though it is just incidental, not
an explicit test for this behavior).

So let's bring case (2) in line with the others by always
running the repository setup, even with an explicit
"--no-index". We shouldn't need to change anything else, as the
implicit case already handles the prefix.

7d8930d903 diff: handle --no-index prefixes consistently
If we see an explicit "git diff --no-index ../foo ../bar",
then we do not set up the git repository at all (we already
know we are in --no-index mode, so do not have to check "are
we in a repository?"), and hence have no "prefix" within the
repository. A patch generated by this command will have the
filenames "a/../foo" and "b/../bar", no matter which
directory we are in with respect to any repository.

However, in the implicit case, where we notice that the
files are outside the repository, we will have chdir()'d to
the top-level of the repository. We then feed the prefix
back to the diff machinery. As a result, running the same
diff from a subdirectory will result in paths that look like
"a/subdir/../../foo".

Besides being unnecessarily long, this may also be confusing
to the user: they don't care about the subdir or the
repository at all; it's just where they happened to be when
running the command. We should treat this the same as the
explicit --no-index case.

One way to address this would be to chdir() back to the
original path before running our diff. However, that's a bit
hacky, as we would also need to adjust $GIT_DIR, which could
be a relative path from our top-level.

Instead, we can reuse the diff machinery's RELATIVE_NAME
option, which automatically strips off the prefix. Note that
this _also_ restricts the diff to this relative prefix, but
that's OK for our purposes: we queue our own diff pairs
manually, and do not rely on that part of the diff code.

4a73aaaf18 patch-id: use RUN_SETUP_GENTLY
Patch-id does not require a repository because it is just
processing the incoming diff on stdin, but it may look at
git config for keys like patchid.stable.

Even though we do not setup_git_directory(), this works from

".git/config" in this case. But as the included test
demonstrates, it does not work from a subdirectory.

We can fix it by using RUN_SETUP_GENTLY. We do not take any
filenames from the user on the command line, so there's no
need to adjust them via prefix_filename().

0e94ee9415 hash-object: always try to set up the git repository
When "hash-object" is run without "-w", we don't need to be
in a git repository at all; we can just hash the object and
write its sha1 to stdout. However, if we _are_ in a git
repository, we would want to know that so we can follow the
normal rules for respecting config, .gitattributes, etc.

This happens to work at the top-level of a git repository
because we blindly read ".git/config", but as the included
test shows, it does not work when you are in a subdirectory.

The solution is to just do a "gentle" setup in this case. We
already take care to use prefix_filename() on any filename
arguments we get (to handle the "-w" case), so we don't need
to do anything extra to handle the side effects of repo
setup.

An alternative would be to specify RUN_SETUP_GENTLY for this
command in git.c, and then die if "-w" is set but we are not
in a repository. However, the error messages generated at
the time of setup_git_directory() are more detailed, so it's
better to find out which mode we are in, and then call the
appropriate function.

645c432d61 pack-objects: use reachability bitmap index when generating non-stdout pack
Starting from 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects)
if a repository has bitmap index, pack-objects can nicely speedup
"Counting objects" graph traversal phase. That however was done only for
case when resultant pack is sent to stdout, not written into a file.

The reason here is for on-disk repack by default we want:

- to produce good pack (with bitmap index not-yet-packed objects are
  emitted to pack in suboptimal order).

- to use more robust pack-generation codepath (avoiding possible
  bugs in bitmap code and possible bitmap index corruption).

Jeff King further explains:

    The reason for this split is that pack-objects tries to determine how
    "careful" it should be based on whether we are packing to disk or to
    stdout. Packing to disk implies "git repack", and that we will likely
    delete the old packs after finishing. We want to be more careful (so
    as not to carry forward a corruption, and to generate a more optimal
    pack), and we presumably run less frequently and can afford extra CPU.
    Whereas packing to stdout implies serving a remote via "git fetch" or
    "git push". This happens more frequently (e.g., a server handling many
    fetching clients), and we assume the receiving end takes more
    responsibility for verifying the data.

    But this isn't always the case. One might want to generate on-disk
    packfiles for a specialized object transfer. Just using "--stdout" and
    writing to a file is not optimal, as it will not generate the matching
    pack index.

    So it would be useful to have some way of overriding this heuristic:
    to tell pack-objects that even though it should generate on-disk
    files, it is still OK to use the reachability bitmaps to do the
    traversal.

So we can teach pack-objects to use bitmap index for initial object
counting phase when generating resultant pack file too:

- if we take care to not let it be activated under git-repack:

  See above about repack robustness and not forward-carrying corruption.

- if we know bitmap index generation is not enabled for resultant pack:

  The current code has singleton bitmap_git, so it cannot work
  simultaneously with two bitmap indices.

  We also want to avoid (at least with current implementation)
  generating bitmaps off of bitmaps. The reason here is: when generating
  a pack, not-yet-packed objects will be emitted into pack in
  suboptimal order and added to tail of the bitmap as "extended entries".
  When the resultant pack + some new objects in associated repository
  are in turn used to generate another pack with bitmap, the situation
  repeats: new objects are again not emitted optimally and just added to
  bitmap tail - not in recency order.

  So the pack badness can grow over time when at each step we have
  bitmapped pack + some other objects. That's why we want to avoid
  generating bitmaps off of bitmaps, not to let pack badness grow.

- if we keep pack reuse enabled still only for "send-to-stdout" case:

  Because pack-to-file needs to generate index for destination pack, and
  currently on pack reuse raw entries are directly written out to the
  destination pack by write_reused_pack(), bypassing needed for pack index
  generation bookkeeping done by regular codepath in write_one() and
  friends.

  ( In the future we might teach pack-reuse code about cases when index
    also needs to be generated for resultant pack and remove
    pack-reuse-only-for-stdout limitation )

This way for pack-objects -> file we get nice speedup:

    erp5.git[1] (~230MB) extracted from ~ 5GB lab.nexedi.com backup
    repository managed by git-backup[2] via

    time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --revs erp5pack

before:  37.2s
after:   26.2s

And for `git repack -adb` packed git.git

    time echo 5c589a73 | git pack-objects --revs gitpack

before:   7.1s
after:    3.6s

i.e. it can be 30% - 50% speedup for pack extraction.

git-backup extracts many packs on repositories restoration. That was my
initial motivation for the patch.

[1] https://lab.nexedi.com/nexedi/erp5
[2] https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/git-backup

NOTE

Jeff also suggests that pack.useBitmaps was probably a mistake to
introduce originally. This way we are not adding another config point,
but instead just always default to-file pack-objects not to use bitmap
index: Tools which need to generate on-disk packs with using bitmap, can
pass --use-bitmap-index explicitly. And git-repack does never pass
--use-bitmap-index, so this way we can be sure regular on-disk repacking
remains robust.

NOTE2

`git pack-objects --stdout >file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack` is much slower
than `git pack-objects file.pack`. Extracting erp5.git pack from
lab.nexedi.com backup repository:

    $ time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --stdout --revs >erp5pack-stdout.pack

    real    0m22.309s
    user    0m21.148s
    sys     0m0.932s

    $ time git index-pack erp5pack-stdout.pack

    real    0m50.873s   <-- more than 2 times slower than time to generate pack itself!
    user    0m49.300s
    sys     0m1.360s

So the time for

    `pack-object --stdout >file.pack` + `index-pack file.pack`  is  72s,

while

    `pack-objects file.pack` which does both pack and index     is  27s.

And even

    `pack-objects --no-use-bitmap-index file.pack`              is  37s.

Jeff explains:

    The packfile does not carry the sha1 of the objects. A receiving
    index-pack has to compute them itself, including inflating and applying
    all of the deltas.

that's why for `git-backup restore` we want to teach `git pack-objects
file.pack` to use bitmaps instead of using `git pack-objects --stdout
>file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack`.

NOTE3

The speedup is now tracked via t/perf/p5310-pack-bitmaps.sh

702d1b9583 pack-objects: respect --local/--honor-pack-keep/--incremental when bitmap is in use
Since 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects) there
are two codepaths in pack-objects: with & without using bitmap
reachability index.

However add_object_entry_from_bitmap(), despite its non-bitmapped
counterpart add_object_entry(), in no way does check for whether --local
or --honor-pack-keep or --incremental should be respected. In
non-bitmapped codepath this is handled in want_object_in_pack(), but
bitmapped codepath has simply no such checking at all.

The bitmapped codepath however was allowing to pass in all those options
and with bitmap indices still being used under such conditions -
potentially giving wrong output (e.g. including objects from non-local or
.keep'ed pack).

We can easily fix this by noting the following: when an object comes to
add_object_entry_from_bitmap() it can come for two reasons:

    1. entries coming from main pack covered by bitmap index, and
    2. object coming from, possibly alternate, loose or other packs.

"2" can be already handled by want_object_in_pack() and to cover
"1" we can teach want_object_in_pack() to expect that *found_pack can be
non-NULL, meaning calling client already found object's pack entry.

In want_object_in_pack() we care to start the checks from already found
pack, if we have one, this way determining the answer right away
in case neither --local nor --honour-pack-keep are active. In
particular, as p5310-pack-bitmaps.sh shows (3 consecutive runs), we do
not do harm to served-with-bitmap clones performance-wise:

with delta timings showing they are all within noise from run to run.

In the general case we do not want to call find_pack_entry_one() more than
once, because it is expensive. This patch splits the loop in
want_object_in_pack() into two parts: finding the object and seeing if it
impacts our choice to include it in the pack. We may call the inexpensive
want_found_object() twice, but we will never call find_pack_entry_one() if we
do not need to.

I appreciate help and discussing this change with Junio C Hamano and
Jeff King.

7bcf341453 cat-file --textconv/--filters: allow specifying the path separately
There are circumstances when it is relatively easy to figure out the
object name for a given path, but not the name of the containing tree.
For example, when looking at a diff generated by Git, the object names
are recorded, but not the revision. As a matter of fact, the revisions
from which the diff was generated may not even exist locally.

In such a case, the user would have to generate a fake revision just to
be able to use --textconv or --filters.

Let's simplify this dramatically, because we do not really need that
revision at all: all we care about is that we know the path. In the
scenario described above, we do know the path, and we just want to
specify it separately from the object name.

Example usage:

	git cat-file --textconv --path=main.c 0f1937fd

b9e62f6011 cat-file: introduce the --filters option
The --filters option applies the convert_to_working_tree() filter for
the path when showing the contents of a regular file blob object;
the contents are written out as-is for other types of objects.

This feature comes in handy when a 3rd-party tool wants to work with
the contents of files from past revisions as if they had been checked
out, but without detouring via temporary files.

eb398797cd connect: advertized capability is not a ref
When cloning an empty repository served by standard git, "git clone" produces
the following reassuring message:

	$ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty
	Cloning into 'empty'...
	warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
	Checking connectivity... done.

Meanwhile when cloning an empty repository served by JGit, the output is more
haphazard:

	$ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty
	Cloning into 'empty'...
	Checking connectivity... done.
	warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.

This is a common command to run immediately after creating a remote repository
as preparation for adding content to populate it and pushing. The warning is
confusing and needlessly worrying.

The cause is that, since v3.1.0.201309270735-rc1~22 (Advertise capabilities
with no refs in upload service., 2013-08-08), JGit's ref advertisement includes
a ref named capabilities^{} to advertise its capabilities on, while git's ref
advertisement is empty in this case. This allows the client to learn about the
server's capabilities and is needed, for example, for fetch-by-sha1 to work
when no refs are advertised.

This also affects "ls-remote". For example, against an empty repository served
by JGit:

	$ git ls-remote git://localhost/tmp/empty
	0000000000000000000000000000000000000000        capabilities^{}

Git advertises the same capabilities^{} ref in its ref advertisement for push
but since it never did so for fetch, the client didn't need to handle this
case.  Handle it.

d63ed6ef24 remote-curl: handle URLs without protocol
Generally remote-curl would never see a URL that did not
have "proto:" at the beginning, as that is what tells git to
run the "git-remote-proto" helper (and git-remote-http, etc,
are aliases for git-remote-curl).

However, the special syntax "proto::something" will run
git-remote-proto with only "something" as the URL. So a
malformed URL like:

  http::/example.com/repo.git

will feed the URL "/example.com/repo.git" to
git-remote-http. The resulting URL has no protocol, but the
code added by 372370f (http: use credential API to handle
proxy authentication, 2016-01-26) does not handle this case
and segfaults.

For the purposes of this code, we don't really care what the
exact protocol; only whether or not it is https. So let's
just assume that a missing protocol is not, and curl will
handle the real error (which is that the URL is nonsense).

b773ddea2c pack-objects: walk tag chains for --include-tag
When pack-objects is given --include-tag, it peels each tag
ref down to a non-tag object, and if that non-tag object is
going to be packed, we include the tag, too. But what
happens if we have a chain of tags (e.g., tag "A" points to
tag "B", which points to commit "C")?

We'll peel down to "C" and realize that we want to include
tag "A", but we do not ever consider tag "B", leading to a
broken pack (assuming "B" was not otherwise selected).
Instead, we have to walk the whole chain, adding any tags we
find to the pack.

Interestingly, it doesn't seem possible to trigger this
problem with "git fetch", but you can with "git clone
--single-branch". The reason is that we generate the correct
pack when the client explicitly asks for "A" (because we do
a real reachability analysis there), and "fetch" is more
willing to do so. There are basically two cases:

  1. If "C" is already a ref tip, then the client can deduce
     that it needs "A" itself (via find_non_local_tags), and
     will ask for it explicitly rather than relying on the
     include-tag capability. Everything works.

  2. If "C" is not already a ref tip, then we hope for
     include-tag to send us the correct tag. But it doesn't;
     it generates a broken pack. However, the next step is
     to do a follow-up run of find_non_local_tags(),
     followed by fetch_refs() to backfill any tags we
     learned about.

     In the normal case, fetch_refs() calls quickfetch(),
     which does a connectivity check and sees we have no
     new objects to fetch. We just write the refs.

     But for the broken-pack case, the connectivity check
     fails, and quickfetch will follow-up with the remote,
     asking explicitly for each of the ref tips. This picks
     up the missing object in a new pack.

For a regular "git clone", we are similarly OK, because we
explicitly request all of the tag refs, and get a correct
pack. But with "--single-branch", we kick in tag
auto-following via "include-tag", but do _not_ do a
follow-up backfill. We just take whatever the server sent us
via include-tag and write out tag refs for any tag objects
we were sent. So prior to c6807a4 (clone: open a shortcut
for connectivity check, 2013-05-26), we actually claimed the
clone was a success, but the result was silently
corrupted!  Since c6807a4, index-pack's connectivity
check catches this case, and we correctly complain.

The included test directly checks that pack-objects does not
generate a broken pack, but also confirms that "clone
--single-branch" does not hit the bug.

Note that tag chains introduce another interesting question:
if we are packing the tag "B" but not the commit "C", should
"A" be included?

Both before and after this patch, we do not include "A",
because the initial peel_ref() check only knows about the
bottom-most level, "C". To realize that "B" is involved at
all, we would have to switch to an incremental peel, in
which we examine each tagged object, asking if it is being
packed (and including the outer tag if so).

But that runs contrary to the optimizations in peel_ref(),
which avoid accessing the objects at all, in favor of using
the value we pull from packed-refs. It's OK to walk the
whole chain once we know we're going to include the tag (we
have to access it anyway, so the effort is proportional to
the pack we're generating). But for the initial selection,
we have to look at every ref. If we're only packing a few
objects, we'd still have to parse every single referenced
tag object just to confirm that it isn't part of a tag
chain.

This could be addressed if packed-refs stored the complete
tag chain for each peeled ref (in most cases, this would be
the same cost as now, as each "chain" is only a single
link). But given the size of that project, it's out of scope
for this fix (and probably nobody cares enough anyway, as
it's such an obscure situation). This commit limits itself
to just avoiding the creation of a broken pack.

ab5178356c t5305: simplify packname handling
We generate a series of packfiles test-1-$pack,
test-2-$pack, with different properties and then examine
them. However we always store the packname generated by
pack-objects in the variable packname_1. This probably was
meant to be packname_2 in the second test, but it turns out
that it doesn't matter: once we are done with the first
pack, we can just keep using the same $packname variable.

So let's drop the confusing "_1" parameter. At the same
time, let's give test-1 and test-2 more descriptive names,
which can help keep them straight (note that we _could_
likewise overwrite the packfiles in each test, but by using
separate filenames, we are sure that test 2 does not
accidentally use the packfile from test 1).

948a7fd242 t5305: use "git -C"
This test unpacks objects into a separate repository, and
accesses it by setting GIT_DIR in a subshell. We can do the
same thing these days by using "git init <repo>" and "git
-C". In most cases this is shorter, though when there are
multiple commands, we may end up repeating the "-C".

However, this repetition can actually be a good thing. This
patch also fixes a bug introduced by 512477b (tests: use
"env" to run commands with temporary env-var settings,
2014-03-18). That commit essentially converted:

   (GIT_DIR=...; export GIT_DIR
    cmd1 &&
    cmd2)

into:

   (GIT_DIR=... cmd1 &&
    cmd2)

which obviously loses the GIT_DIR setting for cmd2 (we never
noticed the bug because it simply runs "cmd2" in the parent
repo, which means we were simply failing to test anything
interesting). By using "git -C" rather than a subshell, it
becomes quite obvious where each command is supposed to be
running.

c00bfc9d1b t9903: fix broken && chain
We might wonder why our && chain check does not catch this case:
The && chain check uses a strange exit code with the expectation that
the second or later part of a broken && chain would not exit with this
particular code.

This expectation does not work in this case because __git_ps1, being
the first command in the second part of the broken && chain, records
the current exit code, does its work, and finally returns to the caller
with the recorded exit code. This fools our && chain check.

10f5c52656 submodule: avoid auto-discovery in prepare_submodule_repo_env()
The function is used to set up the environment variable used in a
subprocess we spawn in a submodule directory.  The callers set up a
child_process structure, find the working tree path of one submodule
and set .dir field to it, and then use start_command() API to spawn
the subprocess like "status", "fetch", etc.

When this happens, we expect that the ".git" (either a directory or
a gitfile that points at the real location) in the current working
directory of the subprocess MUST be the repository for the submodule.

If this ".git" thing is a corrupt repository, however, because
prepare_submodule_repo_env() unsets GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE, the
subprocess will see ".git", thinks it is not a repository, and
attempt to find one by going up, likely to end up in finding the
repository of the superproject.  In some codepaths, this will cause
a command run with the "--recurse-submodules" option to recurse
forever.

By exporting GIT_DIR=.git, disable the auto-discovery logic in the
subprocess, which would instead stop it and report an error.

The test illustrates existing problems in a few callsites of this
function.  Without this fix, "git fetch --recurse-submodules", "git
status" and "git diff" keep recursing forever.

99b43a61f2 allow do_submodule_path to work even if submodule isn't checked out
Currently, do_submodule_path will attempt locating the .git directory by
using read_gitfile on <path>/.git. If this fails it just assumes the
<path>/.git is actually a git directory.

This is good because it allows for handling submodules which were cloned
in a regular manner first before being added to the superproject.

Unfortunately this fails if the <path> is not actually checked out any
longer, such as by removing the directory.

Fix this by checking if the directory we found is actually a gitdir. In
the case it is not, attempt to lookup the submodule configuration and
find the name of where it is stored in the .git/modules/ directory of
the superproject.

If we can't locate the submodule configuration, this might occur because
for example a submodule gitlink was added but the corresponding
.gitmodules file was not properly updated.  A die() here would not be
pleasant to the users of submodule diff formats, so instead, modify
do_submodule_path() to return an error code:

 - git_pathdup_submodule() returns NULL when we fail to find a path.
 - strbuf_git_path_submodule() propagates the error code to the caller.

Modify the callers of these functions to check the error code and fail
properly. This ensures we don't attempt to use a bad path that doesn't
match the corresponding submodule.

Because this change fixes add_submodule_odb() to work even if the
submodule is not checked out, update the wording of the submodule log
diff format to correctly display that the submodule is "not initialized"
instead of "not checked out"

Add tests to ensure this change works as expected.

660e113ce1 graph: add support for --line-prefix on all graph-aware output
Add an extension to git-diff and git-log (and any other graph-aware
displayable output) such that "--line-prefix=<string>" will print the
additional line-prefix on every line of output.

To make this work, we have to fix a few bugs in the graph API that force
graph_show_commit_msg to be used only when you have a valid graph.
Additionally, we extend the default_diff_output_prefix handler to work
even when no graph is enabled.

This is somewhat of a hack on top of the graph API, but I think it
should be acceptable here.

This will be used by a future extension of submodule display which
displays the submodule diff as the actual diff between the pre and post
commit in the submodule project.

Add some tests for both git-log and git-diff to ensure that the prefix
is honored correctly.

5c885c1b53 test-lib: drop PID from test-results/*.count
Each test run generates a "count" file in t/test-results
that stores the number of successful, failed, etc tests.
If you run "t1234-foo.sh", that file is named as
"t/test-results/t1234-foo-$$.count"

The addition of the PID there is serving no purpose, and
makes analysis of the count files harder.

The presence of the PID dates back to 2d84e9f (Modify
test-lib.sh to output stats to t/test-results/*,
2008-06-08), but no reasoning is given there. Looking at the
current code, we can see that other files we write to
test-results (like *.exit and *.out) do _not_ have the PID
included. So the presence of the PID does not meaningfully
allow one to store the results from multiple runs anyway.

Moreover, anybody wishing to read the *.count files to
aggregate results has to deal with the presence of multiple
files for a given test (and figure out which one is the most
recent based on their timestamps!). The only consumer of
these files is the aggregate.sh script, which arguably gets
this wrong. If a test is run multiple times, its counts will
appear multiple times in the total (I say arguably only
because the desired semantics aren't documented anywhere,
but I have trouble seeing how this behavior could be
useful).

So let's just drop the PID, which fixes aggregate.sh, and
will make new features based around the count files easier
to write.

Note that since the count-file may already exist (when
re-running a test), we also switch the "cat" from appending
to truncating. The use of append here was pointless in the
first place, as we expected to always write to a unique file.

bc6b13a7d2 blame: fix segfault on untracked files
Since 3b75ee9 ("blame: allow to blame paths freshly added to the index",
2016-07-16) git blame also looks at the index to determine if there is a
file that was freshly added to the index.

cache_name_pos returns -pos - 1 in case there is no match is found, or
if the name matches, but the entry has a stage other than 0.  As git
blame should work for unmerged files, it uses strcmp to determine
whether the name of the returned position matches, in which case the
file exists, but is merely unmerged, or if the file actually doesn't
exist in the index.

If the repository is empty, or if the file would lexicographically be
sorted as the last file in the repository, -cache_name_pos - 1 is
outside of the length of the active_cache array, causing git blame to
segfault.  Guard against that, and die() normally to restore the old
behaviour.

05d1ed6148 mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processes
When the index is locked and child processes inherit the handle to
said lock and the parent process wants to remove the lock before the
child process exits, on Windows there is a problem: it won't work
because files cannot be deleted if a process holds a handle on them.
The symptom:

    Rename from 'xxx/.git/index.lock' to 'xxx/.git/index' failed.
    Should I try again? (y/n)

Spawning child processes with bInheritHandles==FALSE would not work
because no file handles would be inherited, not even the hStdXxx
handles in STARTUPINFO (stdin/stdout/stderr).

Opening every file with O_NOINHERIT does not work, either, as e.g.
git-upload-pack expects inherited file handles.

This leaves us with the only way out: creating temp files with the
O_NOINHERIT flag. This flag is Windows-specific, however. For our
purposes, it is equivalent to O_CLOEXEC (which does not exist on
Windows), so let's just open temporary files with the O_CLOEXEC flag and
map that flag to O_NOINHERIT on Windows.

As Eric Wong pointed out, we need to be careful to handle the case where
the Linux headers used to compile Git support O_CLOEXEC but the Linux
kernel used to run Git does not: it returns an EINVAL.

This fixes the test that we just introduced to demonstrate the problem.

ad65f7e3b7 t6026-merge-attr: child processes must not inherit index.lock handles
On Windows, a file cannot be removed unless all file handles to it have
been released. Hence it is particularly important to close handles when
spawning children (which would probably not even know that they hold on
to those handles).

The example chosen for this test is a custom merge driver that indeed
has no idea that it blocks the deletion of index.lock. The full use case
is a daemon that lives on after the merge, with subsequent invocations
handing off to the daemon, thereby avoiding hefty start-up costs. We
simulate this behavior by simply sleeping one second.

Note that the test only fails on Windows, due to the file locking issue.
Since we have no way to say "expect failure with MINGW, success
otherwise", we simply skip this test on Windows for now.

31224cbdc7 clone: recursive and reference option triggers submodule alternates
When `--recursive` and `--reference` is given, it is reasonable to
expect that the submodules are created with references to the submodules
of the given alternate for the superproject.

  An initial attempt to do this was presented to the mailing list, which
  used flags that are passed around ("--super-reference") that instructed
  the submodule clone to look for a reference in the submodules of the
  referenced superproject. This is not well thought out, as any further
  `submodule update` should also respect the initial setup.

  When a new  submodule is added to the superproject and the alternate
  of the superproject does not know about that submodule yet, we rather
  error out informing the user instead of being unclear if we did or did
  not use a submodules alternate.

To solve this problem introduce new options that store the configuration
for what the user wanted originally.

9445b4921e rev-parse: respect core.hooksPath in --git-path
The idea of the --git-path option is not only to avoid having to
prefix paths with the output of --git-dir all the time, but also to
respect overrides for specific common paths inside the .git directory
(e.g. `git rev-parse --git-path objects` will report the value of the
environment variable GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY, if set).

When introducing the core.hooksPath setting, we forgot to adjust
git_path() accordingly. This patch fixes that.

While at it, revert the special-casing of core.hooksPath in
run-command.c, as it is now no longer needed.

c2cafd39bc t/Makefile: ensure that paths are valid on platforms we care
Some pathnames that are okay on ext4 and on HFS+ cannot be checked
out on Windows. Tests that want to see operations on such paths on
filesystems that support them must do so behind appropriate test
prerequisites, and must not include them in the source tree (instead
they should create them when they run). Otherwise, the source tree
cannot even be checked out.

Make sure that double-quotes, asterisk, colon, greater/less-than,
question-mark, backslash, tab, vertical-bar, as well as any non-ASCII
characters never appear in the pathnames with a new test-lint-* target
as part of a `make test`. To that end, we call `git ls-files` (ensuring
that the paths are quoted properly), relying on the fact that paths
containing non-ASCII characters are quoted within double-quotes.

In case that the source code does not actually live in a Git
repository (e.g. when extracted from a .zip file), or that the `git`
executable cannot be executed, we simply ignore the error for now; In
that case, our trusty Continuous Integration will be the last line of
defense and catch any problematic file name.

Noticed when a topic wanted to add a pathname with '>' in it.  A
check like this will prevent a similar problems from happening in the
future.

45a4f5d9f9 difftool: always honor fatal error exit codes
At the moment difftool's "trust exit code" logic always suppresses the
exit status of the diff utility we invoke.  This is useful because we
don't want to exit just because diff returned "1" because the files
differ, but it's confusing if the shell returns an error because the
selected diff utility is not found.

POSIX specifies 127 as the exit status for "command not found", 126 for
"command found but is not executable" and values greater than 128 if the
command terminated because it received a signal [1] and at least bash
and dash follow this specification, while diff utilities generally use
"1" for the exit status we want to ignore.

Handle any value of 126 or greater as a special value indicating that
some form of fatal error occurred.

a0ad53c181 convert: Correct NNO tests and missing LF will be replaced by CRLF
When a non-reversible CRLF conversion is done in "git add",
a warning is printed on stderr (or Git dies, depending on checksafe)

The function commit_chk_wrnNNO() in t0027 was written to test this,
but did the wrong thing: Instead of looking at the warning
from "git add", it looked at the warning from "git commit".

This is racy because "git commit" may not have to do CRLF conversion
at all if it can use the sha1 value from the index (which depends on
whether "add" and "commit" run in a single second).

Correct t0027 and replace the commit for each and every file with a commit
of all files in one go.
The function commit_chk_wrnNNO() should be renamed in a separate commit.

Now that t0027 does the right thing, it detects a bug in covert.c:
This sequence should generate the warning `LF will be replaced by CRLF`,
but does not:

$ git init
$ git config core.autocrlf false
$ printf "Line\r\n" >file
$ git add file
$ git commit -m "commit with CRLF"
$ git config core.autocrlf true
$ printf "Line\n" >file
$ git add file

"git add" calls crlf_to_git() in convert.c, which calls check_safe_crlf().
When has_cr_in_index(path) is true, crlf_to_git() returns too early and
check_safe_crlf() is not called at all.

Factor out the code which determines if "git checkout" converts LF->CRLF
into will_convert_lf_to_crlf().

Update the logic around check_safe_crlf() and "simulate" the possible
LF->CRLF conversion at "git checkout" with help of will_convert_lf_to_crlf().
Thanks to Jeff King <peff@peff.net> for analyzing t0027.

a25716535b merge-recursive: fix verbose output for multiple base trees
One of the indirect callers of make_virtual_commit() passes the result of
oid_to_hex() as the name, i.e. a pointer to a static buffer.  Since the
function uses that string pointer directly in building a struct
merge_remote_desc, multiple entries can end up sharing the same name
inadvertently.

Fix that by calling set_merge_remote_desc(), which creates a copy of the
string, instead of building the struct by hand.

b3dfeebb92 rebase: avoid computing unnecessary patch IDs
The `rebase` family of Git commands avoid applying patches that were
already integrated upstream. They do that by using the revision walking
option that computes the patch IDs of the two sides of the rebase
(local-only patches vs upstream-only ones) and skipping those local
patches whose patch ID matches one of the upstream ones.

In many cases, this causes unnecessary churn, as already the set of
paths touched by a given commit would suffice to determine that an
upstream patch has no local equivalent.

This hurts performance in particular when there are a lot of upstream
patches, and/or large ones.

Therefore, let's introduce the concept of a "diff-header-only" patch ID,
compare those first, and only evaluate the "full" patch ID lazily.

Please note that in contrast to the "full" patch IDs, those
"diff-header-only" patch IDs are prone to collide with one another, as
adjacent commits frequently touch the very same files. Hence we now
have to be careful to allow multiple hash entries with the same hash.
We accomplish that by using the hashmap_add() function that does not even
test for hash collisions.  This also allows us to evaluate the full patch ID
lazily, i.e. only when we found commits with matching diff-header-only
patch IDs.

We add a performance test that demonstrates ~1-6% improvement.  In
practice this will depend on various factors such as how many upstream
changes and how big those changes are along with whether file system
caches are cold or warm.  As Git's test suite has no way of catching
performance regressions, we also add a regression test that verifies
that the full patch ID computation is skipped when the diff-header-only
computation suffices.

4cf2143e02 pack-objects: break delta cycles before delta-search phase
We do not allow cycles in the delta graph of a pack (i.e., A
is a delta of B which is a delta of A) for the obvious
reason that you cannot actually access any of the objects in
such a case.

There's a last-ditch attempt to notice cycles during the
write phase, during which we issue a warning to the user and
write one of the objects out in full. However, this is
"last-ditch" for two reasons:

  1. By this time, it's too late to find another delta for
     the object, so the resulting pack is larger than it
     otherwise could be.

  2. The warning is there because this is something that
     _shouldn't_ ever happen. If it does, then either:

       a. a pack we are reusing deltas from had its own
          cycle

       b. we are reusing deltas from multiple packs, and
          we found a cycle among them (i.e., A is a delta of
          B in one pack, but B is a delta of A in another,
          and we choose to use both deltas).

       c. there is a bug in the delta-search code

     So this code serves as a final check that none of these
     things has happened, warns the user, and prevents us
     from writing a bogus pack.

Right now, (2b) should never happen because of the static
ordering of packs in want_object_in_pack(). If two objects
have a delta relationship, then they must be in the same
pack, and therefore we will find them from that same pack.

However, a future patch would like to change that static
ordering, which will make (2b) a common occurrence. In
preparation, we should be able to handle those kinds of
cycles better. This patch does by introducing a
cycle-breaking step during the get_object_details() phase,
when we are deciding which deltas can be reused. That gives
us the chance to feed the objects into the delta search as
if the cycle did not exist.

We'll leave the detection and warning in the write_object()
phase in place, as it still serves as a check for case (2c).

This does mean we will stop warning for (2a). That case is
caused by bogus input packs, and we ideally would warn the
user about it.  However, since those cycles show up after
picking reusable deltas, they look the same as (2b) to us;
our new code will break the cycles early and the last-ditch
check will never see them.

We could do analysis on any cycles that we find to
distinguish the two cases (i.e., it is a bogus pack if and
only if every delta in the cycle is in the same pack), but
we don't need to. If there is a cycle inside a pack, we'll
run into problems not only reusing the delta, but accessing
the object data at all. So when we try to dig up the actual
size of the object, we'll hit that same cycle and kick in
our usual complain-and-try-another-source code.

967d7f898c t7406: fix breakage on OSX
On OSX `wc` prefixes the output of numbers with whitespace, such
that the `commit_count` would be "SP <NUMBER>". When using that in

    git submodule update --init --depth=$commit_count

the depth would be empty and the number is interpreted as the
pathspec.  Fix this by not using `wc` and rather instruct rev-list
to count.

Another way to fix this is to remove the `=` sign after the
`--depth` argument as then we are allowed to have more than just one
whitespace between `--depth` and the actual number.  Prefer the
solution of rev-list counting as that is expected to be slightly
faster and more self-contained within Git.

9eed4f3711 t5533: make it pass on case-sensitive filesystems
The newly-added test case wants to commit a file "c.t" (note the lower
case) when a previous test case already committed a file "C.t". This
confuses Git to the point that it thinks "c.t" was not staged when "git
add c.t" was called.

Simply make the naming of the test commits consistent with the previous
test cases: use upper-case, and advance in the alphabet.

This came up in local work to rebase the Windows-specific patches to the
current `next` branch. An identical fix was suggested by John Keeping.

6b7728db81 t7063: work around FreeBSD's lazy mtime update feature
Let's start with the commit message of [1] from freebsd.git [2]

    Sync timestamp changes for inodes of special files to disk as late
    as possible (when the inode is reclaimed).  Temporarily only do
    this if option UFS_LAZYMOD configured and softupdates aren't
    enabled.  UFS_LAZYMOD is intentionally left out of
    /sys/conf/options.

    This is mainly to avoid almost useless disk i/o on battery powered
    machines.  It's silly to write to disk (on the next sync or when
    the inode becomes inactive) just because someone hit a key or
    something wrote to the screen or /dev/null.

    PR:             5577 [3]

The short version of that, in the context of t7063, is that when a
directory is updated, its mtime may be updated later, not
immediately. This can be shown with a simple command sequence

    date; sleep 1; touch abc; rm abc; sleep 10; ls -lTd .

One would expect that the date shown in `ls` would be one second from
`date`, but it's 10 seconds later. If we put another `ls -lTd .` in
front of `sleep 10`, then the date of the last `ls` comes as
expected. The first `ls` somehow forces mtime to be updated.

t7063 is really sensitive to directory mtime. When mtime is too "new",
git code suspects racy timestamps and will not trigger the shortcut in
untracked cache, in t7063.24 and eventually be detected in t7063.27

We have two options thanks to this special FreeBSD feature:

1) Stop supporting untracked cache on FreeBSD. Skip t7063 entirely
   when running on FreeBSD

2) Work around this problem (using the same 'ls' trick) and continue
   to support untracked cache on FreeBSD

I initially wanted to go with 1) because I didn't know the exact
nature of this feature and feared that it would make untracked cache
work unreliably, using the cached version when it should not.

Since the behavior of this thing is clearer now. The picture is not
that bad. If this indeed happens often, untracked cache would assume
racy condition more often and _fall back_ to non-untracked cache code
paths. Which means it may be less effective, but it will not show
wrong things.

This patch goes with option 2.

PS. For those who want to look further in FreeBSD source code, this
flag is now called IN_LAZYMOD. I can see it's effective in ext2 and
ufs. zfs is not affected.

4d7bc52b17 submodule update: allow '.' for branch value
Gerrit has a "superproject subscription" feature[1], that triggers a
commit in a superproject that is subscribed to its submodules.
Conceptually this Gerrit feature can be done on the client side with
Git via (except for raciness, error handling etc):

  while [ true ]; do
    git -C <superproject> submodule update --remote --force
    git -C <superproject> commit -a -m "Update submodules"
    git -C <superproject> push
  done

for each branch in the superproject. To ease the configuration in Gerrit
a special value of "." has been introduced for the submodule.<name>.branch
to mean the same branch as the superproject[2], such that you can create a
new branch on both superproject and the submodule and this feature
continues to work on that new branch.

Now we find projects in the wild with such a .gitmodules file.
The .gitmodules used in these Gerrit projects do not conform
to Gits understanding of how .gitmodules should look like.
This teaches Git to deal gracefully with this syntax as well.

The redefinition of "." does no harm to existing projects unaware of
this change, as "." is an invalid branch name in Git, so we do not
expect such projects to exist.

54956df9bc t4130: work around Windows limitation
On Windows, it is already pretty expensive to try to recreate the stat()
data that Git assumes is cheap to obtain. To make things halfway decent
in performance, we even have to skip emulating the inode and to
determine the number of hard links.

This is not a huge problem, usually, as either the size or the mtime or
the ctime are tell-tale enough to say when a file has changed, and even
if not, those changes are typically made after the index file was
written, triggering a rehashing of the files' contents.

The t4130-apply-criss-cross-rename test case, however, requires the
inode to determine that files of equal size were swapped, as renaming
files does not update their mtime. Every once in a while, t4130 fails
on Windows because of this missing piece.

Equal file sizes are not crucial for the test cases, however. Hence,
generate files with different sizes so that there is some property that
the swapped files can be discovered reliably even on Windows.

c0fa44d8f1 t3700: remove unwanted leftover files before running new tests
When an earlier test that has prerequisite is skipped, files
used by later tests may be left in the working tree in an
unexpected state.  For example, a test runs this sequence:

        echo foo >xfoo1 && chmod 755 xfoo1

to create an executable file xfoo1, expecting that xfoo1
does not exist before it runs in the test sequence.
However, the absence of this file depends on "git reset
--hard" done in an earlier test, that is skipped when SANITY
prerequisite is not met, and worse yet, xfoo1 originally is
created as a symbolic link, which means the chmod does not
affect the modes of xfoo1 as this test expects.

Fix this by starting the test with "rm -f xfoo1" to make
sure the file is created from scratch, and do the same to
other similar tests.

(Teach rebase an interactive mode, 2007-06-25), there has
been a preemptive check, before looking at any commits, to
see whether the user has a valid name/email combination.

This is convenient, because it means that we abort the
operation before even beginning (rather than just
complaining that we are unable to pick a particular commit).

However, it does the wrong thing when the rebase does not
actually need to generate any new commits (e.g., a
fast-forward with no commits to pick, or one where the base
stays the same, and we just pick the same commits without
rewriting anything). In this case it may complain about the
lack of ident, even though one would not be needed to
complete the operation.

This may seem like mere nit-picking, but because interactive
rebase underlies the "preserve-merges" rebase, somebody who
has set "pull.rebase" to "preserve" cannot make even a
fast-forward pull without a valid ident, as we bail before
even realizing the fast-forward nature.

This commit drops the extra ident check entirely. This means
we rely on individual commands that generate commit objects
to complain. So we will continue to notice and prevent cases
that actually do create commits, but with one important
difference: we fail while actually executing the "pick"
operations, and leave the rebase in a conflicted, half-done
state.

In some ways this is less convenient, but in some ways it is
more so; the user can then manually commit or even "git
rebase --continue" after setting up their ident (or
providing it as a one-off on the command line).

77023ea3c3 t/perf: add tests for many-pack scenarios
Git's pack storage does efficient (log n) lookups in a
single packfile's index, but if we have multiple packfiles,
we have to linearly search each for a given object.  This
patch introduces some timing tests for cases where we have a
large number of packs, so that we can measure any
improvements we make in the following patches.

The main thing we want to time is object lookup. To do this,
we measure "git rev-list --objects --all", which does a
fairly large number of object lookups (essentially one per
object in the repository).

However, we also measure the time to do a full repack, which
is interesting for two reasons. One is that in addition to
the usual pack lookup, it has its own linear iteration over
the list of packs. And two is that because it it is the tool
one uses to go from an inefficient many-pack situation back
to a single pack, we care about its performance not only at
marginal numbers of packs, but at the extreme cases (e.g.,
if you somehow end up with 5,000 packs, it is the only way
to get back to 1 pack, so we need to make sure it performs
well).

We measure the performance of each command in three
scenarios: 1 pack, 50 packs, and 1,000 packs.

The 1-pack case is a baseline; any optimizations we do to
handle multiple packs cannot possibly perform better than
this.

The 50-pack case is as far as Git should generally allow
your repository to go, if you have auto-gc enabled with the
default settings. So this represents the maximum performance
improvement we would expect under normal circumstances.

The 1,000-pack case is hopefully rare, though I have seen it
in the wild where automatic maintenance was broken for some
time (and the repository continued to receive pushes). This
represents cases where we care less about general
performance, but want to make sure that a full repack
command does not take excessively long.

98f917ed42 difftool: avoid $GIT_DIR and $GIT_WORK_TREE
Environment variables are global and hard to reason about.
Use the `--git-dir` and `--work-tree` arguments when invoking `git`
instead of relying on the environment.

Add a test to ensure that difftool's dir-diff feature works when these
variables are present in the environment.
