$GIT_DIR/info/exclude and core.excludesfile (which falls back to

lists given by the project in .gitignore files. The former, which

the latter, which is a personal preference default across different

Even though the previous step shifts where the "entry" begins, we
still iterate over the original buf[], which may begin with the
UTF-8 BOM we are supposed to be skipping. At the end of the first
line, the code grabs the contents of it starting at "entry", so
there is nothing wrong per-se, but the logic looks really confused.
Instead, move the buf pointer and shrink its size, to truly
pretend that UTF-8 BOM did not exist in the input.

Some text editors like Notepad or LibreOffice write an UTF-8 BOM in
order to indicate that the file is Unicode text rather than whatever the
current locale would indicate.
If someone uses such an editor to edit a gitignore file, we are left
with those three bytes at the beginning of the file. If we do not skip
them, we will attempt to match a filename with the BOM as prefix, which
won't match the files the user is expecting.

The expected call sequence is for the caller to use match_pathspec()
repeatedly on a set of pathspecs, accumulating the "hits" in a
separate array, and then call this function to diagnose a pathspec
that never matched anything, as that can indicate a typo from the
command line, e.g. "git commit Maekfile".
Many builtin commands use this function from builtin/ls-files.c,
which is not a very healthy arrangement. ls-files might have been
the first command to feel the need for such a helper, but the need
is shared by everybody who uses the "match and then report" pattern.
Move it to dir.c where match_pathspec() is defined.

If the user enables untracked cache, then
- move worktree to an unsupported filesystem
- or simply upgrade OS
- or move the whole (portable) disk from one machine to another
- or access a shared fs from another machine
there's no guarantee that untracked cache can still function properly.
Record the worktree location and OS footprint in the cache. If it
changes, err on the safe side and disable the cache. The user can
'update-index --untracked-cache' again to make sure all conditions are
met.
This adds a new requirement that setup_git_directory* must be called
before read_cache() because we need worktree location by then, or the
cache is dropped.
This change does not cover all bases, you can fool it if you try
hard. The point is to stop accidents.

Ideally we should implement untracked_cache_remove_from_index() and
untracked_cache_add_to_index() so that they update untracked cache
right away instead of invalidating it and wait for read_directory()
next time to deal with it. But that may need some more work in
unpack-trees.c. So stay simple as the first step.
The new call in add_index_entry_with_check() may look strange because
new calls usually stay close to cache_tree_invalidate_path(). We do it
a bit later than c_t_i_p() in this function because if it's about
replacing the entry with the same name, we don't care (but cache-tree

If we redo this thing in a functional style, we would have one struct
untracked_dir as input tree and another as output. The input is used
for verification. The output is a brand new tree, reflecting current
worktree.
But that means recreate a lot of dir nodes even if a lot could be
shared between input and output trees in good cases. So we go with the
messy but efficient way, combining both input and output trees into
one. We need a way to know which node in this combined tree belongs to
the output. This is the purpose of this "recurse" flag.
"valid" bit can't be used for this because it's about data of the node
except the subdirs. When we invalidate a directory, we want to keep
cached data of the subdirs intact even though we don't really know
what subdir still exists (yet). Then we check worktree to see what
actual subdir remains on disk. Those will have 'recurse' bit set
again. If cached data for those are still valid, we may be able to
avoid computing exclude files for them. Those subdirs that are deleted
will have 'recurse' remained clear and their 'valid' bits do not
matter.

The main readdir loop in read_directory_recursive() is replaced with a
new one that checks if cached results of a directory is still valid.
If a file is added or removed from the index, the containing directory
is invalidated (but not its subdirs). If directory's mtime is changed,
the same happens. If a .gitignore is updated, the containing directory
and all subdirs are invalidated recursively. If dir_struct#flags or
other conditions change, the cache is ignored.
If a directory is invalidated, we opendir/readdir/closedir and run the
exclude machinery on that directory listing as usual. If untracked
cache is also enabled, we'll update the cache along the way. If a
directory is validated, we simply pull the untracked listing out from
the cache. The cache also records the list of direct subdirs that we
have to recurse in. Fully excluded directories are seen as "untracked
files".
In the best case when no dirs are invalidated, read_directory()
becomes a series of
stat(dir), open(.gitignore), fstat(), read(), close() and optionally
hash_sha1_file()
For comparison, standard read_directory() is a sequence of
opendir(), readdir(), open(.gitignore), fstat(), read(), close(), the
expensive last_exclude_matching() and closedir().
We already try not to open(.gitignore) if we know it does not exist,
so open/fstat/read/close sequence does not apply to every
directory. The sequence could be reduced further, as noted in
prep_exclude() in another patch. So in theory, the entire best-case
read_directory sequence could be reduced to a series of stat() and
nothing else.
This is not a silver bullet approach. When you compile a C file, for
example, the old .o file is removed and a new one with the same name
created, effectively invalidating the containing directory's cache
(but not its subdirectories). If your build process touches every
directory, this cache adds extra overhead for nothing, so it's a good
idea to separate generated files from tracked files.. Editors may use
the same strategy for saving files. And of course you're out of luck
running your repo on an unsupported filesystem and/or operating system.

It's easy to see that if an existing .gitignore changes, its SHA-1
would be different and invalidate_gitignore() is called.
If .gitignore is removed, add_excludes() will treat it like an empty
.gitignore, which again should invalidate the cached directory data.
if .gitignore is added, lookup_untracked() already fills initial
.gitignore SHA-1 as "empty file", so again invalidate_gitignore() is

The idea is if we can capture all input and (non-rescursive) output of
read_directory_recursive(), and can verify later that all the input is
the same, then the second r_d_r() should produce the same output as in
the first run.
The requirement for this to work is stat info of a directory MUST
change if an entry is added to or removed from that directory (and
should not change often otherwise). If your OS and filesystem do not
meet this requirement, untracked cache is not for you. Most file
systems on *nix should be fine. On Windows, NTFS is fine while FAT may
not be [1] even though FAT on Linux seems to be fine.
The list of input of r_d_r() is in the big comment block in dir.h. In
short, the output of a directory (not counting subdirs) mainly depends
on stat info of the directory in question, all .gitignore leading to
it and the check_only flag when r_d_r() is called recursively. This
patch records all this info (and the output) as r_d_r() runs.
Two hash_sha1_file() are required for $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and
core.excludesfile unless their stat data matches. hash_sha1_file() is
only needed when .gitignore files in the worktree are modified,
otherwise their SHA-1 in index is used (see the previous patch).
We could store stat data for .gitignore files so we don't have to
rehash them if their content is different from index, but I think
.gitignore files are rarely modified, so not worth extra cache data
(and hashing penalty read-cache.c:verify_hdr(), as we will be storing
this as an index extension).
The implication is, if you change .gitignore, you better add it to the
index soon or you lose all the benefit of untracked cache because a
modified .gitignore invalidates all subdirs recursively. This is
especially bad for .gitignore at root.
This cached output is about untracked files only, not ignored files
because the number of tracked files is usually small, so small cache
overhead, while the number of ignored files could go really high
(e.g. *.o files mixing with source code).

We often represent our strings as a counted string, i.e. a pair of
the pointer to the beginning of the string and its length, and the
string may not be NUL terminated to that length.
To compare a pair of such counted strings, unpack-trees.c and
read-cache.c implement their own name_compare() functions
identically. In addition, the cache_name_compare() function in
read-cache.c is nearly identical. The only difference is when one
string is the prefix of the other string, in which case
name_compare() returns -1/+1 to show which one is longer, and
cache_name_compare() returns the difference of the lengths to show
the same information.
Unify these three functions by using the implementation from
cache_name_compare(). This does not make any difference to the
existing and future callers, as they must be paying attention only
to the sign of the returned value (and not the magnitude) because
the original implementations of these two functions return values
returned by memcmp(3) when the one string is not a prefix of the
other string, and the only thing memcmp(3) guarantees its callers is
the sign of the returned value, not the magnitude.

This patch activates the DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY code in m_p_i(), which
makes "git diff HEAD submodule/" and "git diff HEAD submodule" produce
the same output. Previously only the version without trailing slash
returns the difference (if any).
That's the effect of new ce_path_match(). dir_path_match() is not
executed by the new tests. And it should not introduce regressions.
Previously if path "dir/" is passed in with pathspec "dir/", they
obviously match. With new dir_path_match(), the path becomes
_directory_ "dir" vs pathspec "dir/", which is not executed by the old
code path in m_p_i(). The new code path is executed and produces the
same result.
The other case is pathspec "dir" and path "dir/" is now turned to
"dir" (with DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY). Still the same result before or after
the patch.
So why change? Because of the next patch about clean.c.

An important benefit of this change is that it eliminates undocumented
and dangerous behavior of dir.c:directory_exists_in_index_icase() in
which it assumes not only that it can validly access one character
beyond the end of its incoming directory argument, but also that that
character will unconditionally be a '/'. This perilous behavior was
"tolerated" because the string passed in by its lone caller always had a
'/' in that position, however, things broke [1] when 2eac2a4c (ls-files

Each caller of index_name_exists() knows whether it is looking for a
directory or a file, and can avoid the unnecessary indirection of
index_name_exists() by instead calling index_dir_exists() or
index_file_exists() directly.
Invoking the appropriate search function explicitly will allow a
subsequent patch to relieve callers of the artificial burden of having
to add a trailing '/' to the pathname given to index_dir_exists().

"ls-files -o" and "ls-files -k" both traverse the working tree down
to find either all untracked paths or those that will be "killed"
(removed from the working tree to make room) when the paths recorded
in the index are checked out. It is necessary to traverse the
working tree fully when enumerating all the "other" paths, but when
we are only interested in "killed" paths, we can take advantage of
the fact that paths that do not overlap with entries in the index
can never be killed.
The treat_one_path() helper function, which is called during the
recursive traversal, is the ideal place to implement an
optimization.
When we are looking at a directory P in the working tree, there are
three cases:
(1) P exists in the index. Everything inside the directory P in
the working tree needs to go when P is checked out from the
index.
(2) P does not exist in the index, but there is P/Q in the index.
We know P will stay a directory when we check out the contents
of the index, but we do not know yet if there is a directory
P/Q in the working tree to be killed, so we need to recurse.
(3) P does not exist in the index, and there is no P/Q in the index
to require P to be a directory, either. Only in this case, we
know that everything inside P will not be killed without
recursing.
Note that this helper is called by treat_leading_path() that decides
if we need to traverse only subdirectories of a single common
leading directory, which is essential for this optimization to be
correct. This caller checks each level of the leading path
component from shallower directory to deeper ones, and that is what
allows us to only check if the path appears in the index. If the
call to treat_one_path() weren't there, given a path P/Q/R, the real
traversal may start from directory P/Q/R, even when the index
records P as a regular file, and we would end up having to check if
any leading subpath in P/Q/R, e.g. P, appears in the index.

:(glob)path differs from plain pathspec that it uses wildmatch with
WM_PATHNAME while the other uses fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME. The
difference lies in how '*' (and '**') is processed.
With the introduction of :(glob) and :(literal) and their global
options --[no]glob-pathspecs, the user can:
- make everything literal by default via --noglob-pathspecs
--literal-pathspecs cannot be used for this purpose as it
disables _all_ pathspec magic.
- individually turn on globbing with :(glob)
- make everything globbing by default via --glob-pathspecs
- individually turn off globbing with :(literal)
The implication behind this is, there is no way to gain the default
matching behavior (i.e. fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME). You either get
new globbing or literal. The old fnmatch behavior is considered
deprecated and discouraged to use.

match_pathspec_depth() and tree_entry_interesting() check max_depth
field in order to support "git grep --max-depth". The feature
activation is tied to "recursive" field, which led to some unwanted
activation, e.g. 5c8eeb8 (diff-index: enable recursive pathspec
matching in unpack_trees - 2012-01-15).
This patch decouples the activation from "recursive" field, puts it in
"magic" field instead. This makes sure that only "git grep" can
activate this feature. And because parse_pathspec knows when the
feature is not used, it does not need to sort pathspec (required for
max_depth to work correctly). A small win for non-grep cases.
Even though a new magic flag is introduced, no magic syntax is. The
magic can be only enabled by parse_pathspec() caller. We might someday
want to support ":(maxdepth:10)src." It all depends on actual use
cases.

Currently to fill a struct pathspec, we do:
const char **paths;
paths = get_pathspec(prefix, argv);
...
init_pathspec(&pathspec, paths);
"paths" can only carry bare strings, which loses information from
command line arguments such as pathspec magic or the prefix part's
length for each argument.
parse_pathspec() is introduced to combine the two calls into one. The
plan is gradually replace all get_pathspec() and init_pathspec() with
parse_pathspec(). get_pathspec() now becomes a thin wrapper of
parse_pathspec().
parse_pathspec() allows the caller to reject the pathspec magics that
it does not support. When a new pathspec magic is introduced, we can
enable it per command after making sure that all underlying code has no
problem with the new magic.
"flags" parameter is currently unused. But it would allow callers to
pass certain instructions to parse_pathspec, for example forcing
literal pathspec when no magic is used.
With the introduction of parse_pathspec, there are now two functions
that can initialize struct pathspec: init_pathspec and
parse_pathspec. Any semantic changes in struct pathspec must be
reflected in both functions. init_pathspec() will be phased out in
favor of parse_pathspec().

I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is
- diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE
- name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED
- preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
builtin/update-index: obvious
- entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
*" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
builtin/checkout.c
- builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
CE_UPDATE
Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.
So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.
The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then

When the working tree walker encounters a directory, it asks the
function treat_directory() if it should descend into it, show it as
an untracked directory, or do something else. When the directory is
the top of the submodule working tree, we used to say "That is an
untracked directory", which was bogus.
It is an entity that is tracked in the index of the repository we
are looking at, and that is not to be descended into it. Return
path_none, not path_untracked, to report that.
The existing case that path_untracked is returned for a newly
discovered submodule that is not tracked in the index (this only
happens when DIR_NO_GITLINKS option is not used) is unchanged, but
that is exactly because the submodule is not tracked in the index.

As of 95c6f271 "dir.c: unify is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs", the
is_excluded API no longer recurses into directories that match an ignore
pattern, and returns the directory's ignored state for all contained paths.
This is OK for normal ignore patterns, i.e. ignoring a directory affects
the entire contents recursively.
Unfortunately, this also "works" for negated ignore patterns ('!dir'), i.e.
the entire contents is "not-ignored" recursively, regardless of ignore
patterns that match the contents directly.
In prep_exclude, skip recursing into a directory only if it is really
ignored (i.e. the ignore pattern is not negated).

'git-status --ignored' still scans the work tree twice to collect
untracked and ignored files, respectively.
fill_directory / read_directory already supports collecting untracked and
ignored files in a single directory scan. However, the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED
flag to enable this has some git-add specific side-effects (e.g. it
doesn't recurse into ignored directories, so listing ignored files with
--untracked=all doesn't work).
The DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag doesn't list untracked files and returns ignored
files in dir_struct.entries[] (instead of dir_struct.ignored[] as
DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED). DIR_SHOW_IGNORED is used all throughout git.
We don't want to break the existing API, so lets introduce a new flag
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO that lists untracked as well as ignored files similar
to DIR_COLLECT_FILES, but will recurse into sub-directories based on the
other flags as DIR_SHOW_IGNORED does.
In dir.c::read_directory_recursive, add ignored files to either
dir_struct.entries[] or dir_struct.ignored[] based on the flags. Also move
the DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED case here so that filling result lists is in a
common place.
In wt-status.c::wt_status_collect_untracked, use the new flag and read
results from dir_struct.ignored[]. Remove the extra fill_directory call.
builtin/check-ignore.c doesn't call fill_directory, setting the git-add
specific DIR_COLLECT_IGNORED flag has no effect here. Remove for clarity.
Update API documentation to reflect the changes.

'git-status --ignored' recursively scans directories up to three times:
1. To collect untracked files.
2. To collect ignored files.
3. When collecting ignored files, to check that an untracked directory
that potentially contains ignored files doesn't also contain untracked
files (i.e. isn't already listed as untracked).
Let's get rid of case 3 first.
Currently, read_directory_recursive returns a boolean whether a directory
contains the requested files or not (actually, it returns the number of
files, but no caller actually needs that), and DIR_SHOW_IGNORED specifies
what we're looking for.
To be able to test for both untracked and ignored files in a single scan,
we need to return a bit more info, and the result must be independent of
the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag.
Reuse the path_treatment enum as return value of read_directory_recursive.
Split path_handled in two separate values path_excluded and path_untracked
that don't change their meaning with the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag. We don't
need an extra value path_untracked_and_excluded, as directories with both
untracked and ignored files should be listed as untracked.
Rename path_ignored to path_none for clarity (i.e. "don't treat that path"
in contrast to "the path is ignored and should be treated according to
DIR_SHOW_IGNORED").
Replace enum directory_treatment with path_treatment. That's just another
enum with the same meaning, no need to translate back and forth.
In treat_directory, get rid of the extra read_directory_recursive call and
all the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED-specific code.
In read_directory_recursive, decide whether to dir_add_name path_excluded
or path_untracked paths based on the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag.
The return value of read_directory_recursive is the maximum path_treatment
of all files and sub-directories. In the check_only case, abort when we've
reached the most significant value (path_untracked).

Checking if a file is in the index is much faster (hashtable lookup) than
checking if the file is excluded (linear search over exclude patterns).
Skip is_excluded checks for files: move the cache_name_exists check from
treat_file to treat_one_path and return early if the file is tracked.
This can safely be done as all other code paths also return path_ignored
for tracked files, and dir_add_ignored skips tracked files as well.
There's just one line left in treat_file, so move this to treat_one_path
as well.

The is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs are very similar, except for a
few noteworthy differences:
is_excluded doesn't handle ignored directories, results for paths within
ignored directories are incorrect. This is probably based on the premise
that recursive directory scans should stop at ignored directories, which
is no longer true (in certain cases, read_directory_recursive currently
calls is_excluded *and* is_path_excluded to get correct ignored state).
is_excluded caches parsed .gitignore files of the last directory in struct
dir_struct. If the directory changes, it finds a common parent directory
and is very careful to drop only as much state as necessary. On the other
hand, is_excluded will also read and parse .gitignore files in already
ignored directories, which are completely irrelevant.
is_path_excluded correctly handles ignored directories by checking if any
component in the path is excluded. As it uses is_excluded internally, this
unfortunately forces is_excluded to drop and re-read all .gitignore files,
as there is no common parent directory for the root dir.
is_path_excluded tracks state in a separate struct path_exclude_check,
which is essentially a wrapper of dir_struct with two more fields. However,
as is_path_excluded also modifies dir_struct, it is not possible to e.g.
use multiple path_exclude_check structures with the same dir_struct in
parallel. The additional structure just unnecessarily complicates the API.
Teach is_excluded / prep_exclude about ignored directories: whenever
entering a new directory, first check if the entire directory is excluded.
Remember the excluded state in dir_struct. Don't traverse into already
ignored directories (i.e. don't read irrelevant .gitignore files).
Directories could also be excluded by exclude patterns specified on the
command line or .git/info/exclude, so we cannot simply skip prep_exclude
entirely if there's no .gitignore file name (dir_struct.exclude_per_dir).
Move this check to just before actually reading the file.
is_path_excluded is now equivalent to is_excluded, so we can simply
redirect to it (the public API is cleaned up in the next patch).
The performance impact of the additional ignored check per directory is
hardly noticeable when reading directories recursively (e.g. 'git status').
However, performance of git commands using the is_path_excluded API (e.g.
'git ls-files --cached --ignored --exclude-standard') is greatly improved
as this no longer re-reads .gitignore files on each call.

The notion of "ignored tracked" directories introduced in 721ac4ed "dir.c:

- git-clean -d -X: deletes ignored tracked directories. git-clean should
never delete tracked content.
- git-ls-files --ignored --other --directory: lists ignored tracked
directories instead of "other" directories.
- git-status --ignored: lists ignored tracked directories while contained
files may be listed as modified. Paths listed by git-status should be
disjoint (except in long format where a path may be listed in both the
staged and unstaged section).
Additionally, the current behaviour violates documentation in gitignore(5)

The changes v1.7.12.1~2^2~4 (config: warn on inaccessible files,
2012-08-21) and v1.8.1.1~22^2~2 (config: treat user and xdg config
permission problems as errors, 2012-10-13) were intended to prevent
important configuration (think "[transfer] fsckobjects") from being
ignored when the configuration is unintentionally unreadable (for
example with EIO on a flaky filesystem, or with ENOMEM due to a DoS
attack). Usually ~/.gitconfig and ~/.config/git are readable by the
current user, and if they aren't then it would be easy to fix those
permissions, so the damage from adding this check should have been
minimal.
Unfortunately the access() check often trips when git is being run as
a server. A daemon (such as inetd or git-daemon) starts as "root",
creates a listening socket, and then drops privileges, meaning that
when git commands are invoked they cannot access $HOME and die with
fatal: unable to access '/root/.config/git/config': Permission denied
Any patch to fix this would have one of three problems:
1. We annoy sysadmins who need to take an extra step to handle HOME
when dropping privileges (the current behavior, or any other
proposal that they have to opt into).
2. We annoy sysadmins who want to set HOME when dropping privileges,
either by making what they want to do impossible, or making them
set an extra variable or option to accomplish what used to work
(e.g., a patch to git-daemon to set HOME when --user is passed).
3. We loosen the check, so some cases which might be noteworthy are
not caught.
This patch is of type (3).
Treat user and xdg configuration that are inaccessible due to
permissions (EACCES) as though no user configuration was provided at
all.
An alternative method would be to check if $HOME is readable, but that
would not help in cases where the user who dropped privileges had a
globally readable HOME with only .config or .gitconfig being private.
This does not change the behavior when /etc/gitconfig or .git/config
is unreadable (since those are more serious configuration errors),

t3600: test behavior of reverse-d/f conflict

A pattern "dir" (without trailing slash) in the attributes file
stopped matching a directory "dir" by mistake with an earlier change
that wanted to allow pattern "dir/" to also match.

dir.c::match_basename(): pay attention to the length of string parameters
attr.c::path_matches(): special case paths that end with a slash
attr.c::path_matches(): the basename is part of the pathname
If we used to have an index entry "d/f", but "d" has been
replaced by a non-directory entry, the user may still want
to run "git rm" to delete the stale index entry. They could
use "git rm --cached" to just touch the index, but "git rm"
should also work: we explicitly try to handle the case that
the file has already been removed from the working tree.
However, because unlinking "d/f" in this case will not yield
ENOENT, but rather ENOTDIR, we do not notice that the file
is already gone. Instead, we report it as an error.
The simple solution is to treat ENOTDIR in this case exactly
like ENOENT; all we want to know is whether the file is
already gone, and if a leading path is no longer a
directory, then by definition the sub-path is gone.

This function takes two counted strings: a <pattern, patternlen> pair
and a <pathname, pathlen> pair. But we end up feeding the result to
fnmatch, which expects NUL-terminated strings.
We can fix this by calling the fnmatch_icase_mem function, which
handles re-allocating into a NUL-terminated string if necessary.
While we're at it, we can avoid even calling fnmatch in some cases. In
addition to patternlen, we get "prefix", the size of the pattern that
contains no wildcard characters. We do a straight match of the prefix
part first, and then use fnmatch to cover the rest. But if there are
no wildcards in the pattern at all, we do not even need to call
fnmatch; we would simply be comparing two empty strings.

If we receive a pattern that starts with "/", we shift it
forward to avoid looking at the "/" part. Since the prefix
and patternlen parameters are counts of what is in the
pattern, we must decrement them as we increment the pointer.
We remembered to handle prefix, but not patternlen. This
didn't cause any bugs, though, because the patternlen
parameter is not actually used. Since it will be used in
future patches, let's correct this oversight.

The function takes two counted strings (<basename, basenamelen> and
<pattern, patternlen>) as parameters, together with prefix (the
length of the prefix in pattern that is to be matched literally
without globbing against the basename) and EXC_* flags that tells it
how to match the pattern against the basename.
However, it did not pay attention to the length of these counted
strings. Update them to do the following:
* When the entire pattern is to be matched literally, the pattern
matches the basename only when the lengths of them are the same,
and they match up to that length.
* When the pattern is "*" followed by a string to be matched
literally, make sure that the basenamelen is equal or longer than
the "literal" part of the pattern, and the tail of the basename
string matches that literal part.
* Otherwise, use the new fnmatch_icase_mem helper to make
sure we only lookmake sure we use only look at the
counted part of the strings. Because these counted strings are
full strings most of the time, we check for termination
to avoid unnecessary allocation.

When enumerating paths that are ignored, paths the index knows
about are not included in the result. The "index knows about"
check is done by consulting the name hash, not the actual
contents of the index:
- When core.ignorecase is false, directory names are not in the
name hash, and ignored ones are shown as ignored (directories
can never be tracked anyway).
- When core.ignorecase is true, however, the name hash keeps
track of the names of directories, in order to detect
additions of the paths under different cases. This causes
ignored directories to be mistakenly excluded when
enumerating ignored paths.
Stop excluding directories that are in the name hash when
looking for ignored files in dir_add_name(); the names that are
actually in the index are excluded much earlier in the callchain
in treat_file(), so this fix will not make them mistakenly
identified as ignored.

For exclude patterns read in from files, the filename is stored in the
exclude list, and the originating line number is stored in the
individual exclude (counting starting at 1).
For exclude patterns provided on the command line, a string describing
the source of the patterns is stored in the exclude list, and the
sequence number assigned to each exclude pattern is negative, with
counting starting at -1. So for example the 2nd pattern provided via
--exclude would be numbered -2. This allows any future consumers of
that data to easily distinguish between exclude patterns from files
vs. from the CLI.

Previously each exclude_list could potentially contain patterns
from multiple sources. For example dir->exclude_list[EXC_FILE]
would typically contain patterns from .git/info/exclude and
core.excludesfile, and dir->exclude_list[EXC_DIRS] could contain
patterns from multiple per-directory .gitignore files during
directory traversal (i.e. when dir->exclude_stack was more than
one item deep).
We split these composite exclude_lists up into three groups of
exclude_lists (EXC_CMDL / EXC_DIRS / EXC_FILE as before), so that each
exclude_list now contains patterns from a single source. This will
allow us to cleanly track the origin of each pattern simply by adding
a src field to struct exclude_list, rather than to struct exclude,
which would make memory management of the source string tricky in the
EXC_DIRS case where its contents are dynamically generated.
Similarly, by moving the filebuf member from struct exclude_stack to
struct exclude_list, it allows us to track and subsequently free
memory buffers allocated during the parsing of all exclude files,
rather than only tracking buffers allocated for files in the EXC_DIRS
group.

- with --untracked-files=normal, untracked directories that

- "--ignored --untracked-files=normal" doesn't show each specific
files but top directory. It instead shows untracked directories
that only contains ignored files, and ignored tracked directories
with untracked files.
- "--ignored --untracked-files=all" shows all ignored files, either
because it's in an ignored directory (tracked or untracked), or

is_path_excluded() becomes a wrapper around this, and just returns 0

The excluded function uses a new helper function called
last_exclude_matching_from_list() to perform the inner loop over all of
the exclude patterns. The helper just tells us whether the path is
included, excluded, or undecided.
However, it may be useful to know _which_ pattern was triggered. So
let's pass out the entire exclude match, which contains the status
information we were already passing out.
Further patches can make use of this.

Git takes pathspec arguments in many places to limit the
scope of an operation. These pathspecs are treated not as
literal paths, but as glob patterns that can be fed to
fnmatch. When a user is giving a specific pattern, this is a
nice feature.
However, when programatically providing pathspecs, it can be
a nuisance. For example, to find the latest revision which
modified "$foo", one can use "git rev-list -- $foo". But if
"$foo" contains glob characters (e.g., "f*"), it will
erroneously match more entries than desired. The caller
needs to quote the characters in $foo, and even then, the
results may not be exactly the same as with a literal
pathspec. For instance, the depth checks in
match_pathspec_depth do not kick in if we match via fnmatch.
This patch introduces a global command-line option (i.e.,
one for "git" itself, not for specific commands) to turn
this behavior off. It also has a matching environment
variable, which can make it easier if you are a script or
porcelain interface that is going to issue many such
commands.
This option cannot turn off globbing for particular
pathspecs. That could eventually be done with a ":(noglob)"
magic pathspec prefix. However, that level of granularity is
more cumbersome to use for many cases, and doing ":(noglob)"
right would mean converting the whole codebase to use
"struct pathspec", as the usual "const char **pathspec"
cannot represent extra per-item flags.

When a pattern contains only a single asterisk as wildcard,
e.g. "foo*bar", after literally comparing the leading part "foo" with
the string, we can compare the tail of the string and make sure it
matches "bar", instead of running fnmatch() on "*bar" against the
remainder of the string.

because it exercises pathspec matching a lot. The point is it cuts
down matching time for popular patterns like *.c, which could be used
as pathspec in other places.
