cff7123c11 fetch: Allow transport -v -v -v to set verbosity to 3
Helpers might want a higher level of verbosity than just +1 (the
porcelain default setting) and +2 (-v -v).  Expand the field to
allow verbosity in the range -1..3.

78affc49de Add multi_ack_detailed capability to fetch-pack/upload-pack
When multi_ack_detailed is enabled the ACK continue messages returned
by the remote upload-pack are broken out to describe the different
states within the peer.  This permits the client to better understand
the server's in-memory state.

The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol now looks like:

NAK
---------------------------------
  Always sent in response to "done" if there was no common base
  selected from the "have" lines (or no have lines were sent).

  * no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Sent when the client has sent a pkt-line flush ("0000") and
    the server has not yet found a common base object.

  * either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Always sent in response to a pkt-line flush.

ACK %s
-----------------------------------
  * no multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Sent in response to "have" when the object exists on the remote
    side and is therefore an object in common between the peers.
    The argument is the SHA-1 of the common object.

  * either multi_ack or multi_ack_detailed:

    Sent in response to "done" if there are common objects.
    The argument is the last SHA-1 determined to be common.

ACK %s continue
-----------------------------------
  * multi_ack only:

    Sent in response to "have".

    The remote side wants the client to consider this object as
    common, and immediately stop transmitting additional "have"
    lines for objects that are reachable from it.  The reason
    the client should stop is not given, but is one of the two
    cases below available under multi_ack_detailed.

ACK %s common
-----------------------------------
  * multi_ack_detailed only:

    Sent in response to "have".  Both sides have this object.
    Like with "ACK %s continue" above the client should stop
    sending have lines reachable for objects from the argument.

ACK %s ready
-----------------------------------
  * multi_ack_detailed only:

    Sent in response to "have".

    The client should stop transmitting objects which are reachable
    from the argument, and send "done" soon to get the objects.

    If the remote side has the specified object, it should
    first send an "ACK %s common" message prior to sending
    "ACK %s ready".

    Clients may still submit additional "have" lines if there are
    more side branches for the client to explore that might be added
    to the common set and reduce the number of objects to transfer.

28754ab5f0 Move "get_ack()" back to fetch-pack
In 41cb7488 Linus moved this function to connect.c for reuse inside
of the git-clone-pack command.  That was 2005, but in 2006 Junio
retired git-clone-pack in commit efc7fa53.  Since then the only
caller has been fetch-pack.  Since this ACK/NAK exchange is only
used by the fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol we should move it back
to be a private detail of fetch-pack.

edace6f02e fetch-pack: Use a strbuf to compose the want list
This change is being offered as a refactoring to make later
commits in the smart HTTP series easier.

By changing the enabled capabilities to be formatted in a strbuf
it is easier to add a new capability to the set of supported
capabilities.

By formatting the want portion of the request into a strbuf and
writing it as a whole block we can later decide to hold onto
the req_buf (instead of releasing it) to recycle in stateless
communications.

b3118bdc91 sha1_file: Fix infinite loop when pack is corrupted
Some types of corruption to a pack may confuse the deflate stream
which stores an object.  In Andy's reported case a 36 byte region
of the pack was overwritten, leading to what appeared to be a valid
deflate stream that was trying to produce a result larger than our
allocated output buffer could accept.

Z_BUF_ERROR is returned from inflate() if either the input buffer
needs more input bytes, or the output buffer has run out of space.
Previously we only considered the former case, as it meant we needed
to move the stream's input buffer to the next window in the pack.

We now abort the loop if inflate() returns Z_BUF_ERROR without
consuming the entire input buffer it was given, or has filled
the entire output buffer but has not yet returned Z_STREAM_END.
Either state is a clear indicator that this loop is not working
as expected, and should not continue.

This problem cannot occur with loose objects as we open the entire
loose object as a single buffer and treat Z_BUF_ERROR as an error.

d01a8e32fe clone: Supply the right commit hash to post-checkout when -b is used
When we use -b <branch>, we may checkout something else than what the
remote's HEAD references, but we still used remote_head to supply the
new ref value to the post-checkout hook, which is wrong.

So instead of using remote_head to find the value to be passed to the
post-checkout hook, we have to use our_head_points_at, which is always
correctly setup, even if -b is not used.

This also fixes a segfault when "clone -b <branch>" is used with a
remote repo that doesn't have a valid HEAD, as in such a case
remote_head is NULL, but we still tried to access it.

17225c49d5 bash completion: complete refs for git-grep
Before the --, always attempt ref completion.  This helps with
entering the <treeish> arguments to git-grep.  As a bonus, you can
work around git-grep's current lack of --all by hitting M-*, ugly as
the resulting command line may be.

Strictly speaking, completing the regular expression argument (or
option argument) makes no sense.  However, we cannot prevent _all_
completion (it will fall back to filenames), so we dispense with any
additional complication to detect whether the user still has to enter
a regular expression.

33405be34b Documentation: clone: clarify discussion of initial branch
When saying the initial branch is equal to the currently active
remote branch, it is probably intended that the branch heads
point to the same commit.  Maybe it would be more useful to a
new user to emphasize that the tree contents and history are the
same.

More important, probably, is that this new branch is set up so
that "git pull" merges changes from the corresponding remote
branch.  The next paragraph addresses that directly.  What the
reader needs to know to begin with is that (1) the initial branch
is your own; if you do not pull, it won't get updated, and that
(2) the initial branch starts out at the same commit as the
upstream.

e0d7805954 completion: fix alias listings with newlines
Aliases with newlines have been a problem since commit 56fc25f (Bash
completion support for remotes in .git/config., 2006-11-05). The chance
of the problem occurring has been slim at best, until commit 518ef8f
(completion: Replace config --list with --get-regexp, 2009-09-11)
removed the case statement introduced by commit 56fc25f. Before removing
the case statement, most aliases with newlines would work unless they
were specially crafted as follows

[alias]
	foo = "log -1 --pretty='format:%s\nalias.error=broken'"

After removing the case statement, a more benign alias like

[alias]
	whowhat = "log -1 --pretty='format:%an <%ae>\n%s'"
	wont-complete = ...

would cause the completion to break badly.

For now, revert the removal of the case statement until someone comes up
with a better way to get keys from git-config.

After commit 511a3fc (wrap git's main usage string., 2009-09-12), the

a8c9bef4e0 pull: improve advice for unconfigured error case
There are several reasons a git-pull invocation might not
have anything marked for merge:

  1. We're not on a branch, so there is no branch
     configuration.

  2. We're on a branch, but there is no configuration for
     this branch.

  3. We fetched from the configured remote, but the
     configured branch to merge didn't get fetched (either
     it doesn't exist, or wasn't part of the fetch refspec).

  4. We fetched from the non-default remote, but didn't
     specify a branch to merge. We can't use the configured
     one because it applies to the default remote.

  5. We fetched from a specified remote, and a refspec was
     given, but it ended up not fetching anything (this is
     actually hard to do; if the refspec points to a remote
     branch and it doesn't exist, then fetch will fail and
     we never make it to this code path. But if you provide
     a wildcard refspec like

       refs/bogus/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

     then you can see this failure).

We have handled (1) and (2) for some time. Recently, commit
a6dbf88 added code to handle case (3).

This patch handles cases (4) and (5), which previously just
fell under other cases, producing a confusing message.

While we're at it, let's rewrap the text for case (3), which
looks terribly ugly as it is.

651aef3428 Makefile: add a note about the NO_MMAP setting on IRIX and IRIX64
When git is compiled with the MIPSpro 7.4.4m compiler, and NO_PTHREADS is
set, and NO_MMAP is _not_ set, then git segfaults when trying to access the
first entry in a reflog.  If NO_PTHREADS is not set (which implies that the
pthread library is linked in), or NO_MMAP _is_ set, then the segfault is
not encountered.  The conservative choice has been made to set NO_MMAP in
the Makefile to avoid this flaw.  The GNU C compiler does not produce this
behavior.

The segfault happens in refs.c:read_ref_at().  The mmap succeeds, and the
loop is executed properly until rec is rewound into the first line (reflog
entry) of the file.  The segfault is caught by test 28 of
t1400-update-ref.sh which fails when 'git rev-parse --verify "master@{May 25
2005}"' is called.

So, add a comment in the Makefile to describe why NO_MMAP is set and as a
hint to those who may be interested in unsetting it.

ac78b00939 ls-files: die instead of fprintf/exit in -i error
When ls-files was called with -i but no exclude pattern, it was
calling fprintf(stderr, "...", NULL) and then exiting.  On Solaris,
passing NULL into fprintf was causing a segfault.  On glibc systems,
it was simply producing incorrect output (eg: "(null)": ...).  The
NULL pointer was a result of argv[0] not being preserved by the option
parser.  Instead of requesting that the option parser preserve
argv[0], use die() with a constant string.

A trigger for this bug was: `git ls-files -i`
