We used to rely on the fact that cherry-pick would trigger the code path
to set limited = 1 in handle_commit(), when an uninteresting commit was
encountered.
However, when cherry picking between two independent branches, i.e. when
there are no merge bases, and there is only linear development (which can
happen when you cvsimport a fork of a project), no uninteresting commit
will be encountered.
So set limited = 1 when --cherry-pick was asked for.

In order to (almost) always show the name of the file without
relying on "-H" option of GNU grep, we used to add /dev/null to
the argument list unless we are doing -l or -L. This caused
"/dev/null:0" to show up when -c is given in the output.
It is not enough to add -c to the set of options we do not pass
/dev/null for. When we have too many files, we invoke grep
multiple times and we need to avoid giving a widow filename to
the last invocation -- otherwise we will not see the name.
This keeps two filenames when the argv[] buffer is about to
overflow and we have not finished iterating over the index, so
that the last round will always have at least two paths to work
with (and not require /dev/null).
An obvious and the only exception is when there is only 1 file
that is given to the underlying grep, and in that case we avoid
passing /dev/null and let the external "grep -c" report only the
number of matches.

Before the strbuf conversion, result was a char pointer. The if
statement checked for it being not NULL, which meant that no
"$Format:...$" string had been found and no replacement had to be
made. format_subst() returned NULL in that case -- the caller
then simply kept the original file content, as it was unaffected
by the expansion.
The length of the string being 0 is not the same as the string
being NULL (expansion to an empty string vs. no expansion at all),
so checking result.len != 0 is not a full replacement for the old
NULL check.
However, I doubt the subtle optimization explained above resulted
in a notable speed-up anyway. Simplify the code and add the tail
of the file to the expanded string unconditionally.

When making a partial commit, git-commit uses git-ls-files with
the --error-unmatch option to expand and sanity check the user
supplied path patterns. When any path pattern does not match
with the paths known to the index, it errors out, in order to
catch a common mistake to say "git commit Makefiel cache.h"
and end up with a commit that touches only cache.h (notice the
misspelled "Makefile"). This detection however does not work
well when the path has already been removed from the index.
If you drop a path from the index and try to commit that
partially, i.e.
$ git rm COPYING
$ git commit -m 'Remove COPYING' COPYING
the command complains because git does not know anything about
COPYING anymore.
This introduces a new option --with-tree to git-ls-files and
uses it in git-commit when we build a temporary index to
write a tree object for the partial commit.
When --with-tree=<tree-ish> option is specified, names from the
given tree are added to the set of names the index knows about,
so we can treat COPYING file in the example as known.
Of course, there is no reason to use "git rm" and git-aware
people have long time done:
$ rm COPYING
$ git commit -m 'Remove COPYING' COPYING
which works just fine. But this caused a constant confusion.

Most of this patch code and message was written by Shawn O. Pearce.
I made some tests to know what the problem was, and then I changed
the code related with the SIGPIPE signal.
If the user has misconfigured `user.signingkey` in their .git/config
or just doesn't have any secret keys on their keyring and they ask
for a signed tag with `git tag -s` we better make sure the resulting
tag was actually signed by gpg.
Prior versions of builtin git-tag allowed this failure to slip
by without error as they were not checking the return value of
the finish_command() so they did not notice when gpg exited with
an error exit status. They also did not fail if gpg produced an
empty output or if read_in_full received an error from the read
system call while trying to read the pipe back from gpg.
Finally, we did not actually honor any return value from the do_sign
function as it returns ssize_t but was being stored into an unsigned
long. This caused the compiler to optimize out the die condition,
allowing git-tag to continue along and create the tag object.
However, when gpg gets a wrong username, it exits before any read was done
and then the writing process receives SIGPIPE and program is terminated.
By ignoring this signal, anyway, the function write_or_die gets EPIPE from
write_in_full and exits returning 0 to the system without a message.
Here we better call to write_in_full directly so we can fail
printing a message and return safely to the caller.
With these issues fixed `git-tag -s` will now fail to create the
tag and will report a non-zero exit status to its caller, thereby
allowing automated helper scripts to detect (and recover from)
failure if gpg is not working properly.

This patch removes certain behaviour of "git tag -l foo", currently
listing every tag name having "foo" as a substring. The same
thing now could be achieved doing "git tag -l '*foo*'".
This feature was added recently when git-tag.sh got the -n option
for showing tag annotations, because that commit also replaced the
old "grep pattern" behaviour with a more preferable "shell pattern"
behaviour (although slightly modified as you can see).
Thus, the following builtin-tag.c implemented it in order to
ensure that tests were passing unchanged with both programs.
Since common "shell patterns" match names with a given substring
_only_ when * is inserted before and after (as in "*substring*"), and
the "plain" behaviour cannot be achieved easily with the current
implementation, this is mostly the right thing to do, in order to
make it more flexible and consistent.
Tests for "git tag" were also changed to reflect this.

Now we rebase each uncommitted change after each revision is
committed to SVN to ensure that we are up-to-date. git-rebase
will bail out on conflict errors if our next change cannot be
applied and committed to SVN cleanly, preventing accidental
clobbering of changes on the SVN-side.
--no-rebase users will have trouble with this, and are thus
warned if they are committing more than one commit. Fixing this

This clarifies the logic to omit fast-forward check and omit
trivial merge before running the specified strategy.
The "index_merge" variable started out as a flag to say "do not
do anything clever", but when recursive was changed to skip the
trivial merge, the semantics were changed and the variable alone
does not make sense anymore.
This splits the variable into two, allow_fast_forward (which is
almost always true, and avoids making a merge commit when the
other commit is a descendant of our branch, but is set to false
for ours and subtree) and allow_trivial_merge (which is false
for ours, recursive and subtree).
Unlike the earlier implementation, the "ours" strategy allows an
up-to-date condition. When we are up-to-date, the result will
be our commit, and by definition, we will have our tree as the

Here is my attempt to fix this with a minimally intrusive patch.
* As "git --bare init" cannot tell if it was called with --bare or
just "GIT_DIR=. git init", I added an explicit assignment of
is_bare_repository_cfg on the codepath for "git --bare".
* GIT_WORK_TREE alone without GIT_DIR does not make any sense,
nor GIT_WORK_TREE with an explicit "git --bare". Catch that
mistake. It might make sense to move this check to "git.c"
side as well, but I tried to shoot for the minimum change for
now.
* Some scripts, especially from the olden days, rely on
traditional GIT_DIR behaviour in "git init". Namely, these
are some notable patterns:
(create a bare repository)
- mkdir some.git && cd some.git && GIT_DIR=. git init
- mkdir some.git && cd some.git && git --bare init
(create a non-bare repository)
- mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=.git git init
- mkdir .git && GIT_DIR=`pwd`/.git git init
This comes with a new test script and also passes the existing
test suite, but there may be cases that are still broken with
the current tip of master and this patch does not yet fix. I'd

After git-write-tree finishes computing the tree, it updates the
index so that later operations can take advantage of fully
populated cache tree.
However, anybody writing the index file has to mark the entries
that are racily clean. For each entry whose cached lstat(3)
data in the index exactly matches what is obtained from the
filesystem, if the timestamp on the index file was the same or
older than the modification timestamp of the file, the blob
contents and the work tree file, after convert_to_git(), need to
be compared, and if they are different, its index entry needs to
be marked not to match the lstat(3) data from the filesystem.
In order for this to work, convert_to_git() needs to work
correctly, which in turn means you need to read the config file
to get the settings of core.crlf and friends.

For the same reasons as the prior change we want to allow frontends
to omit the trailing LF that usually delimits commands. In some
cases these just make the input stream more verbose looking than
it needs to be, and its just simpler for the frontend developer to
get started if our parser is slightly more lenient about where an
LF is required and where it isn't.
To make this optional LF feature work we now have to buffer up to one
line of input in command_buf. This buffering can happen if we look
at the current input command but don't recognize it at this point
in the code. In such a case we need to "unget" the entire line,
but we cannot depend upon the stdio library to let us do ungetc()
for that many characters at once.

A few fast-import frontend developers have found it odd that we
require the LF following a `data` command, especially in the exact
byte count format. Technically we don't need this LF to parse
the stream properly, but having it here does make the stream more

at the next byte available from the stream and pushing it back into
the buffer if its not LF.

Several frontend developers have asked that some form of stream
comments be permitted within a fast-import data stream. This way
they can include information from their own frontend program about
where specific data was taken from in the source system, or about
a decision that their frontend may have made while creating the
fast-import data stream.
This change introduces comments in the Bourne-shell/Tcl/Perl style.
Lines starting with '#' are ignored, up to and including the LF.
Unlike the above mentioned three languages however we do not look for
and ignore leading whitespace. This just simplifies the definition
of the comment format and the code that parses them.
To make comments work we had to stop using read_next_command() within
cmd_data() and directly invoke read_line() during the inline variant
of the function. This is necessary to retain any lines of the
input data that might otherwise look like a comment to fast-import.

name. TAG_FIXUP has 0 '/' characters, but is technically just as
valid of a ref as HEAD and MERGE_HEAD, so we really should permit it
(and any other similar looking name) during import.
New test cases have been added to make sure we still detect very

This changes the behaviour of cloning from a repository on the
local machine, by defaulting to "-l" (use hardlinks to share
files under .git/objects) and making "-l" a no-op. A new
option, --no-hardlinks, is also added to cause file-level copy
of files under .git/objects while still avoiding the normal
"pack to pipe, then receive and index pack" network transfer
overhead. The old behaviour of local cloning without -l nor -s
is availble by specifying the source repository with the newly
introduced file:///path/to/repo.git/ syntax (i.e. "same as
network" cloning).
* With --no-hardlinks (i.e. have all .git/objects/ copied via
cpio) would not catch the source repository corruption, and
also risks corrupted recipient repository if an
alpha-particle hits memory cell while indexing and resolving
deltas. As long as the recipient is created uncorrupted, you
have a good back-up.
* same-as-network is expensive, but it would catch the breakage
of the source repository. It still risks corrupted recipient
repository due to hardware failure. As long as the recipient
is created uncorrupted, you have a good back-up.
* The new default on the same filesystem, as long as the source
repository is healthy, it is very likely that the recipient
would be, too. Also it is very cheap. You do not get any
back-up benefit, though.
None of the method is resilient against the source repository
corruption, so let's discount that from the comparison. Then
the difference with and without --no-hardlinks matters primarily
if you value the back-up benefit or not. If you want to use the
cloned repository as a back-up, then it is cheaper to do a clone
with --no-hardlinks and two git-fsck (source before clone,
recipient after clone) than same-as-network clone, especially as
you are likely to do a git-fsck on the recipient if you are so
paranoid anyway.
Which leads me to believe that being able to use file:/// is
probably a good idea, if only for testability, but probably of
little practical value. We default to hardlinked clone for

The old version of work-tree support was an unholy mess, barely readable,
and not to the point.
For example, why do you have to provide a worktree, when it is not used?
As in "git status". Now it works.
Another riddle was: if you can have work trees inside the git dir, why
are some programs complaining that they need a work tree?
IOW it is allowed to call
$ git --git-dir=../ --work-tree=. bla
when you really want to. In this case, you are both in the git directory
and in the working tree. So, programs have to actually test for the right
thing, namely if they are inside a working tree, and not if they are
inside a git directory.
Also, GIT_DIR=../.git should behave the same as if no GIT_DIR was
specified, unless there is a repository in the current working directory.
It does now.
The logic to determine if a repository is bare, or has a work tree
(tertium non datur), is this:
--work-tree=bla overrides GIT_WORK_TREE, which overrides core.bare = true,
which overrides core.worktree, which overrides GIT_DIR/.. when GIT_DIR
ends in /.git, which overrides the directory in which .git/ was found.
In related news, a long standing bug was fixed: when in .git/bla/x.git/,
which is a bare repository, git formerly assumed ../.. to be the
appropriate git dir. This problem was reported by Shawn Pearce to have
caused much pain, where a colleague mistakenly ran "git init" in "/" a
long time ago, and bare repositories just would not work.

This makes rebase/am keep the original commit log message
better, even when it does not conform to "single line paragraph
to say what it does, then explain and defend why it is a good
change in later paragraphs" convention.
This change is a two-edged sword. While the earlier behaviour
would make such commit log messages more friendly to readers who
expect to get the birds-eye view with oneline summary formats,
users who primarily use git as a way to interact with foreign
SCM systems would not care much about the convenience of oneline
git log tools, but care more about preserving their own
convention. This changes their commits less useful to readers
who read them with git tools while keeping them more consistent
with the foreign SCM systems they interact with.

We used to take the first non-option argument as the name for the new
branch. This syntax is not extensible to support rewriting more than just
HEAD.
Instead, we now have the following syntax:
git filter-branch [<filter options>...] [<rev-list options>]
All positive refs given in <rev-list options> are rewritten. Yes,
in-place. If a ref was changed, the original head is stored in
refs/original/$ref now, for your inspecting pleasure, in addition to the
reflogs (since it is easier to inspect "git show-ref | grep original" than
to inspect all the reflogs).
This commit also adds the --force option to remove .git-rewrite/ and all
refs from refs/original/ before filtering.

A repeated call to read_sha1_file was not freing memory

Also, now the program does not allow many -F or -m options,

Tests are provided for ensuring that only one option
-F or -m is given. Also, another test is shipped here,

with the features provided by the script version.
There are some minor changes in the behaviour of "git tag" here:
"git tag -v" now can get more than one tag to verify, like "git tag -d" does,
"git tag" with no arguments prints all tags, more like "git branch" does,
and "git tag -n" also prints all tags with annotations (without needing -l).
Tests and documentation were also updated to reflect these changes.
The program is currently calling the script "git verify-tag" for verify.
This can be changed porting it to C and calling its functions directly
from builtin-tag.c.

Renaming files with non-URI friendly characters caused
breakage when committing to DAV repositories (over http(s)).
Even if I try leaving out the $self->{url} from the return value
of url_path(), a partial (without host), unescaped path name
does not work.
Filenames for DAV repos need to be URI-encoded before being
passed to the library. Since this bug did not affect file://
and svn:// repos, the git-svn test library needed to be expanded
to include support for starting Apache with mod_dav_svn enabled.
This new test is not enabled by default, but can be enabled by
setting SVN_HTTPD_PORT to any available TCP/IP port on
127.0.0.1.
Additionally, for running this test, the following variables
(with defaults shown) can be changed for the suitable system.

* 'master' of git://repo.or.cz/git/fastimport:
Teach fast-import to recursively copy files/directories
Fix git-p4 on Windows to not use the Posix sysconf function.
Correct trivial typo in fast-import documentation
Some source material (e.g. Subversion dump files) perform directory
renames by telling us the directory was copied, then deleted in the
same revision. This makes it difficult for a frontend to convert
such data formats to a fast-import stream, as all the frontend has
on hand is "Copy a/ to b/; Delete a/" with no details about what
files are in a/, unless the frontend also kept track of all files.
The new 'C' subcommand within a commit allows the frontend to make a
recursive copy of one path to another path within the branch, without
needing to keep track of the individual file paths. The metadata
copy is performed in memory efficiently, but is implemented as a
copy-immediately operation, rather than copy-on-write.
With this new 'C' subcommand frontends could obviously implement an
'R' (rename) on their own as a combination of 'C' and 'D' (delete),
but since we have already offered up 'R' in the past and it is a
trivial thing to keep implemented I'm not going to deprecate it.

In the previous behavior, "git-rm --cached" (without -f) had the same
restriction as "git-rm". This forced the user to use the -f flag in
situations which weren't actually dangerous, like:
$ git add foo # oops, I didn't want this
$ git rm --cached foo # back to initial situation
Previously, the index had to match the file *and* the HEAD. With
--cached, the index must now match the file *or* the HEAD. The behavior
without --cached is unchanged, but provides better error messages.

when coming back (i.e. switching from a branch with frotz -> xyzzy/
to another branch with frotz/filfre).
This fix is rather expensive in that for a path that is created
we would need to see if any of the leading component of that
path exists as a symbolic link in the filesystem (in which case,
we know that path itself does not exist, and the fact we already
decided to check it out tells us that in the index we already
know that symbolic link is going away as there is no D/F
conflict).

This patch cleans up some complicated code, and replaces it with a
cleaner version, using code from remote.[ch], which got extended a
little in the process. This also enables us to fix two cases:
The earlier "fix" to setup tracking only when the original ref started
with "refs/remotes" is wrong. You are absolutely allowed to use a
separate layout for your tracking branches. The correct fix, of course,
is to set up tracking information only when there is a matching
remote.<nick>.fetch line containing a colon.
Another corner case was not handled properly. If two remotes write to
the original ref, just warn the user and do not set up tracking.

Junio noticed that switching on autosetupmerge unilaterally started
cluttering the config for local branches. That is not the original
intention of branch.autosetupmerge, which was meant purely for
convenience when branching off of remote branches, but that semantics
got lost somewhere.
If you still want that "new" behavior, you can switch
branch.autosetupmerge to the value "all". Otherwise, it is interpreted
as a boolean, which triggers setting up defaults _only_ when branching
off of a remote branch, i.e. the originally intended behavior.
