Some changes were added directly to git.git's git-gui subtree, instead
of being added to the separate git-gui repo and then being pulled back
into git.git. This means those changes are now not in the git-gui tree.
So pull them back into git-gui so we match with what git.git has (after
they pull in the recently added commits).
Most of the changes could be added back in via an octopus merge of all
the missing branches. But there were two commits (faf420e05a and
b71c6c3b64) which touched other parts of git.git along with git-gui, so
they had to be added back in via a cherry-pick because directly pulling
them in would also pull in all the ancestors of those commits,
needlessly bloating git-gui with git.git's history.
Thanks to Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com> for providing me with a
script to generate and merge all the branches that were missing, which
made this task much easier.

On Windows, the default line endings are denoted by a Carriage Return
byte followed by a Line Feed byte, while Linux and MacOSX use a single
Line Feed byte to denote a line ending.
To help with this situation, Git introduced several mechanisms over the
last decade, most prominently the `core.autocrlf` setting.
Sometimes, however, a single setting is incorrect, e.g. when certain
files in the source code are to be consumed by software that can handle
only LF line endings, while other files can use whatever is appropriate
for the current platform.
To allow for that, Git added the `eol` option to its .gitattributes
handling, expecting every user of Git to mark their source code
appropriately.
Bash assumes that line-endings of scripts are denoted by a single Line
Feed byte. Therefore, shell scripts in Git's source code are one example
where that `eol=lf` option is *required*.
When generating common-cmds.h, the Unix tools we use generally operate on
the assumption that input and output deliminate their lines using LF-only
line endings. Consequently, they would happily copy the CR byte verbatim
into the strings in common-cmds.h, which in turn makes the C preprocessor
barf (that interprets them as MacOS-style line endings). Therefore, we
have to mark the input files as LF-only: command-list.txt and
Documentation/git-*.txt.
Quite a bit belatedly, this patch brings Git's own source code in line
with those expectations by setting those attributes to allow for a
correct build even when core.autocrlf=true.
This patch can be validated even on Linux, by using this cadence:
git config core.autocrlf true
rm .git/index && git stash
make -j15 DEVELOPER=1

This patch conceptually reverts 44103f4197 (t/helper: ignore
everything but sources, 2017-12-12). Back in those days we did have a
lot of separate test helper executables under 't/helper', and its
'.gitignore' did get out of sync every once in a while.
Since then, however, most of those separate executables were
integrated into a single 'test-tool' command [1], and new test helpers
are added as new subcommands, so the chances of that '.gitignore'
getting out of sync again are much lower. And even if a contributor
were not careful enough and submits a patch that adds a new executable
under 't/helper' but forgets to update '.gitignore' accordingly, our
CI builds would catch it in a timely manner [2].
Ignoring everything but sources has the drawback that building an
older version of Git (e.g. during bisecting) creates all those
executables, and after going back to e.g. current 'master' the usual
cleanup commands like 'make clean' or 'git clean -fd' don't remove
them (the former doesn't know about them, and the latter doesn't
remove ignored files).
So let's ignore only the executable files under 't/helper/, i.e.
'test-tool' and the three other remaining executables that could not
be integrated into 'test-tool' (no need to ignore object files, as
they are already ignored by our toplevel '.gitignore').

test-tool program, 2018-03-24), and leading up to the merge commit

Use the macro COPY_ARRAY to copy array elements and MOVE_ARRAY to do the
same for moving them backwards in an array with potential overlap. The
result is shorter and safer, as it infers the element type automatically
and does a (very) basic type compatibility check for its first two
arguments.
These cases were missed by Coccinelle and contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci
because the type of the elements is "const char *", not "char *", and
the rules in the semantic patch cautiously insist on the sizeof operator
being used on exactly the same type to avoid generating transformations
that introduce subtle bugs into tricky code.

When the working tree has:
- bar (directory)
- bar/file (file)
- foo (symlink to .)
(note that lstat() for "foo/bar" would tell us that it is a directory)
and the user merges a commit that deletes the foo symlink and instead
contains:
- bar (directory, as above)
- bar/file (file, as above)
- foo (directory)
- foo/bar (file)
the merge should happen without requiring user intervention. However,
this does not happen.
This is because dir_in_way(), when checking the working tree, thinks
that "foo/bar" is a directory. But a symlink should be treated much the
same as a file: since dir_in_way() is only checking to see if there is a
directory in the way, we don't want symlinks in leading paths to
sometimes cause dir_in_way() to return true.
Teach dir_in_way() to also check for symlinks in leading paths before
reporting whether a directory is in the way.

When converting stash into C, calls to 'git update-index --refresh'
were replaced with the 'refresh_cache()' function. That is fine as
long as the index is only needed in-core, and not re-read from disk.
However in many cases we do actually need the refreshed index to be
written to disk, for example 'merge_recursive_generic()' discards the
in-core index before re-reading it from disk, and in the case of 'apply
--quiet', the 'refresh_cache()' we currently have is pointless without
writing the index to disk.
Always write the index after refreshing it to ensure there are no
regressions in this compared to the scripted stash. In the future we
can consider avoiding the write where possible after making sure none
of the subsequent calls actually need the refreshed cache, and it is
not expected to be refreshed after stash exits or it is written
somewhere else already.

Note that we return different error codes for failing to refresh the

about failing to write the index. However for other callers we're
going to convert in subsequent patches we will need this distinction.

Instead of generating $(FOUND_C_SOURCES) from a
`$(shell $(FIND_SOURCE_FILES))` invocation, an alternative design was
considered which involved converting $(FIND_SOURCE_FILES) into
$(SOURCE_FILES) which would hold a list of filenames from the
$(FIND_SOURCE_FILES) invocation. We would simply filter `%.c` files into
$(ALL_C_SOURCES). $(SOURCE_FILES) would then be passed directly to the
etags, ctags and cscope commands. We can see from the following
invocation
$ git ls-files '*.[hcS]' '*.sh' ':!*[tp][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]*' ':!contrib' | wc -c
12779
that the number of characters in this list would pose a problem on
platforms with short command-line length limits (such as CMD which has a
max of 8191 characters). As a result, we don't perform this change.
However, we can see that the same issue may apply when running
Coccinelle since $(COCCI_SOURCES) is also a list of filenames:
if ! echo $(COCCI_SOURCES) | xargs $$limit \
$(SPATCH) --sp-file $< $(SPATCH_FLAGS) \
>$@+ 2>$@.log; \
This is justified since platforms that support Coccinelle generally have
reasonably long command-line length limits and so we are safe for the
foreseeable future.

Currently, $(FIND_SOURCE_FILES) has two modes: if `git ls-files` is
present, it will use that to enumerate the files in the repository; else
it will use `$(FIND) .` to enumerate the files in the directory.
There is a subtle difference between these two methods, however. With
ls-files, filenames don't have a leading `./` while with $(FIND), they
do. This does not currently pose a problem but in a future patch, we
will be using `filter-out` to process the list of files with the
assumption that there is no prefix.
Unify the two possible invocations in $(FIND_SOURCE_FILES) by using sed
to remove the `./` prefix in the $(FIND) case.

cmd_clean() had the following code structure:

for_each_string_list_item(item, &del_list) {
strbuf_addstr(&abs_path, prefix);
strbuf_addstr(&abs_path, item->string);
PROCESS(&abs_path);
strbuf_reset(&abs_path);
}
where I've elided a bunch of unnecessary details and PROCESS(&abs_path)
represents a big chunk of code rather than an actual function call. One
piece of PROCESS was:
if (lstat(abs_path.buf, &st))
continue;
which would cause the strbuf_reset() to be missed -- meaning that the
next path to be handled would have two paths concatenated. This path
used to use die_errno() instead of continue prior to commit 396049e5fb
("git-clean: refactor git-clean into two phases", 2013-06-25), but my
understanding of how correct_untracked_entries() works is that it will
prevent both dir/ and dir/file from being in the list to clean so this
should be dead code and the die_errno() should be safe. But I hesitate
to remove it since I am not certain.
However, we can fix both this bug and possible similar future bugs by
simply moving the strbuf_reset(&abs_path) to the beginning of the loop.
It'll result in N calls to strbuf_reset() instead of N-1, but that's a
small price to pay to avoid sneaky bugs like this.

Users expect files in a nested git repository to be left alone unless
sufficiently forced (with two -f's). Unfortunately, in certain
circumstances, git would delete both tracked (and possibly dirty) files
and untracked files within a nested repository. To explain how this
happens, let's contrast a couple cases. First, take the following
example setup (which assumes we are already within a git repo):
git init nested
cd nested
>tracked
git add tracked
git commit -m init
>untracked
cd ..
In this setup, everything works as expected; running 'git clean -fd'
will result in fill_directory() returning the following paths:
nested/
nested/tracked
nested/untracked
and then correct_untracked_entries() would notice this can be compressed
to
nested/
and then since "nested/" is a directory, we would call
remove_dirs("nested/", ...), which would
check is_nonbare_repository_dir() and then decide to skip it.
However, if someone also creates an ignored file:
>nested/ignored
then running 'git clean -fd' would result in fill_directory() returning
the same paths:
nested/
nested/tracked
nested/untracked
but correct_untracked_entries() will notice that we had ignored entries
under nested/ and thus simplify this list to
nested/tracked
nested/untracked
Since these are not directories, we do not call remove_dirs() which was
the only place that had the is_nonbare_repository_dir() safety check --
resulting in us deleting both the untracked file and the tracked (and
possibly dirty) file.
One possible fix for this issue would be walking the parent directories
of each path and checking if they represent nonbare repositories, but
that would be wasteful. Even if we added caching of some sort, it's
still a waste because we should have been able to check that "nested/"
represented a nonbare repository before even descending into it in the
first place. Add a DIR_SKIP_NESTED_GIT flag to dir_struct.flags and use
it to prevent fill_directory() and friends from descending into nested
git repos.
With this change, we also modify two regression tests added in commit
91479b9c72 ("t7300: add tests to document behavior of clean and nested
git", 2015-06-15). That commit, nor its series, nor the six previous
iterations of that series on the mailing list discussed why those tests
coded the expectation they did. In fact, it appears their purpose was
simply to test _existing_ behavior to make sure that the performance
changes didn't change the behavior. However, these two tests directly
contradicted the manpage's claims that two -f's were required to delete
files/directories under a nested git repository. While one could argue
that the user gave an explicit path which matched files/directories that
were within a nested repository, there's a slippery slope that becomes
very difficult for users to understand once you go down that route (e.g.
what if they specified "git clean -f -d '*.c'"?) It would also be hard
to explain what the exact behavior was; avoid such problems by making it
really simple.
Also, clean up some grammar errors describing this functionality in the
git-clean manpage.
Finally, there are still a couple bugs with -ffd not cleaning out enough
(e.g. missing the nested .git) and with -ffdX possibly cleaning out the
wrong files (paying attention to outer .gitignore instead of inner).
This patch does not address these cases at all (and does not change the
behavior relative to those flags), it only fixes the handling when given
a single -f. See
https://public-inbox.org/git/20190905212043.GC32087@szeder.dev/ for more
discussion of the -ffd[X?] bugs.

The -d flag pre-dated git-clean's ability to have paths specified. As
such, the default for git-clean was to only remove untracked files in
the current directory, and -d existed to allow it to recurse into
subdirectories.
The interaction of paths and the -d option appears to not have been
carefully considered, as evidenced by numerous bugs and a dearth of
tests covering such pairings in the testsuite. The definition turns out
to be important, so let's look at some of the various ways one could
interpret the -d option:
A) Without -d, only look in subdirectories which contain tracked
files under them; with -d, also look in subdirectories which
are untracked for files to clean.
B) Without specified paths from the user for us to delete, we need to
have some kind of default, so...without -d, only look in
subdirectories which contain tracked files under them; with -d,
also look in subdirectories which are untracked for files to clean.
The important distinction here is that choice B says that the presence
or absence of '-d' is irrelevant if paths are specified. The logic
behind option B is that if a user explicitly asked us to clean a
specified pathspec, then we should clean anything that matches that
pathspec. Some examples may clarify. Should
git clean -f untracked_dir/file
remove untracked_dir/file or not? It seems crazy not to, but a strict
reading of option A says it shouldn't be removed. How about
git clean -f untracked_dir/file1 tracked_dir/file2
or
git clean -f untracked_dir_1/file1 untracked_dir_2/file2
? Should it remove either or both of these files? Should it require
multiple runs to remove both the files listed? (If this sounds like a
crazy question to even ask, see the commit message of "t7300: Add some
testcases showing failure to clean specified pathspecs" added earlier in
this patch series.) What if -ffd were used instead of -f -- should that
allow these to be removed? Should it take multiple invocations with
-ffd? What if a glob (such as '*tracked*') were used instead of
spelling out the directory names? What if the filenames involved globs,
such as
git clean -f '*.o'
or
git clean -f '*/*.o'
?
The current documentation actually suggests a definition that is
slightly different than choice A, and the implementation prior to this
series provided something radically different than either choices A or
B. (The implementation, though, was clearly just buggy). There may be
other choices as well. However, for almost any given choice of
definition for -d that I can think of, some of the examples above will
appear buggy to the user. The only case that doesn't have negative
surprises is choice B: treat a user-specified path as a request to clean
all untracked files which match that path specification, including
recursing into any untracked directories.
Change the documentation and basic implementation to use this
definition.
There were two regression tests that indirectly depended on the current
implementation, but neither was about subdirectory handling. These two
tests were introduced in commit 5b7570cfb4 ("git-clean: add tests for
relative path", 2008-03-07) which was solely created to add coverage for
the changes in commit fb328947c8e ("git-clean: correct printing relative
path", 2008-03-07). Both tests specified a directory that happened to
have an untracked subdirectory, but both were only checking that the
resulting printout of a file that was removed was shown with a relative
path. Update these tests appropriately.

The way match_pathspec_item() handles names and pathspecs with trailing

DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY and DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC were non-obvious, and

For git clean, if a directory is entirely untracked and the user did not
specify -d (corresponding to DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO), then we usually do
not want to remove that directory and thus do not recurse into it.
However, if the user manually specified specific (or even globbed) paths
somewhere under that directory to remove, then we need to recurse into
the directory to make sure we remove the relevant paths under that
directory as the user requested.
Note that this does not mean that the recursed-into directory will be
added to dir->entries for later removal; as of a few commits earlier in
this series, there is another more strict match check that is run after
returning from a recursed-into directory before deciding to add it to the
list of entries. Therefore, this will only result in files underneath
the given directory which match one of the pathspecs being added to the
entries list.
Two notes of potential interest to future readers:
* If we wanted to only recurse into a directory when it is specifically
matched rather than matched-via-glob (e.g. '*.c'), then we could do
so via making the final non-zero return in match_pathspec_item be
MATCHED_RECURSIVELY instead of MATCHED_RECURSIVELY_LEADING_PATHSPEC.
(Note that the relative order of MATCHED_RECURSIVELY_LEADING_PATHSPEC
and MATCHED_RECURSIVELY are important for such a change.) I was
leaving open that possibility while writing an RFC asking for the
behavior we want, but even though we don't want it, that knowledge
might help you understand the code flow better.
* There is a growing amount of logic in read_directory_recursive() for
deciding whether to recurse into a subdirectory. However, there is a
comment immediately preceding this logic that says to recurse if
instructed by treat_path(). It may be better for the logic in
read_directory_recursive() to ultimately be moved to treat_path() (or
another function it calls, such as treat_directory()), but I have
left that for someone else to tackle in the future.

Even if a directory doesn't match a pathspec, it is possible, depending
on the precise pathspecs, that some file underneath it might. So we
special case and recurse into the directory for such situations. However,
we previously always added any untracked directory that we recursed into
to the list of untracked paths, regardless of whether the directory
itself matched the pathspec.
For the case of git-clean and a set of pathspecs of "dir/file" and "more",
this caused a problem because we'd end up with dir entries for both of
"dir"
"dir/file"
Then correct_untracked_entries() would try to helpfully prune duplicates
for us by removing "dir/file" since it's under "dir", leaving us with
"dir"
Since the original pathspec only had "dir/file", the only entry left
doesn't match and leaves nothing to be removed. (Note that if only one
pathspec was specified, e.g. only "dir/file", then the common_prefix_len
optimizations in fill_directory would cause us to bypass this problem,
making it appear in simple tests that we could correctly remove manually
specified pathspecs.)
Fix this by actually checking whether the directory we are about to add
to the list of dir entries actually matches the pathspec; only do this
matching check after we have already returned from recursing into the
directory.

For a pathspec like 'foo/bar' comparing against a path named "foo/",
namelen will be 4, and match[namelen] will be 'b'. The correct location
of the directory separator is namelen-1.
However, other callers of match_pathspec_item() such as builtin/grep.c's
submodule_path_match() will compare against a path named "foo" instead of
"foo/". It might be better to change all the callers to be consistent,
as discussed at
https://public-inbox.org/git/xmqq7e6cdnkr.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com/
and
https://public-inbox.org/git/CABPp-BERWUPCPq-9fVW1LNocqkrfsoF4BPj3gJd9+En43vEkTQ@mail.gmail.com/
but there are many cases to audit, so for now just make sure we handle
both cases with and without a trailing slash.
The reason the code worked despite this sometimes-off-by-one error was
that the subsequent code immediately checked whether the first matchlen
characters matched (which they do) and then bailed and return
MATCHED_RECURSIVELY anyway since wildmatch doesn't have the ability to
check if "name" can be matched as a directory (or prefix) against the
pathspec.

Someone brought me a testcase where multiple git-clean invocations were
required to clean out unwanted files:
mkdir d{1,2}
touch d{1,2}/ut
touch d1/t && git add d1/t
With this setup, the user would need to run
git clean -ffd */ut
twice to delete both ut files.
A little testing showed some interesting variants:
* If only one of those two ut files existed (either one), then only one
clean command would be necessary.
* If both directories had tracked files, then only one git clean would
be necessary to clean both files.
* If both directories had no tracked files then the clean command above
would never clean either of the untracked files despite the pathspec
explicitly calling both of them out.
A bisect showed that the failure to clean out the files started with
commit cf424f5fd8 ("clean: respect pathspecs with "-d", 2014-03-10).
However, that pointed to a separate issue: while the "-d" flag was used
by the original user who showed me this problem, that flag should have
been irrelevant to this problem. Testing again without the "-d" flag
showed that the same buggy behavior exists without using that flag, and
has in fact existed since before cf424f5fd8.
Although these problems at first are perceived to be different (e.g.
never clearing out the requested files vs. taking multiple invocations
to get everything cleared out), they are actually just different
manifestations of the same problem. The case with multiple directories
that have no tracked files is the more general case; solving it will
solve all the others. So, I concentrate on it. Add testcases showing
that multiple untracked files within entirely untracked directories
cannot be cleaned when specifying these files to git clean via
pathspecs.

diff, log doc: say "patch text" instead of "patches"
A poster on Stackoverflow was confused that the documentation of git-log
promised to generate "patches" or "patch files" with -p, but there were
none to be found. Rewrite the corresponding paragraph to talk about
"patch text" to avoid the confusion.
Shorten the language to say "X does Y" in place of "X does not Z, but Y".
Cross-reference the referred-to commands like the rest of the file does.
Enumerate git-show because it includes the description as well.
Mention porcelain commands before plumbing commands because I guess that

'progress.c' has seen a few fixes recently [1], and, unfortunately,
some of those fixes required further fixes [2]. It seems it's time to
have a few tests focusing on the subtleties of the progress display.
Add the 'test-tool progress' subcommand to help testing the progress
display, reading instructions from standard input and turning them
into calls to the display_progress() and display_throughput()
functions with the given parameters.
The progress display is, however, critically dependent on timing,
because it's only updated once every second or, if the toal is known
in advance, every 1%, and there is the throughput rate as well. These
make the progress display far too undeterministic for testing as-is.
To address this, add a few testing-specific variables and functions to
'progress.c', allowing the the new test helper to:
- Disable the triggered-every-second SIGALRM and set the
'progress_update' flag explicitly based in the input instructions.
This way the progress line will be updated deterministically when
the test wants it to be updated.
- Specify the time elapsed since start_progress() to make the
throughput rate calculations deterministic.
Add the new test script 't0500-progress-display.sh' to check a few
simple cases with and without throughput, and that a shorter progress
line properly covers up the previously displayed line in different
situations.

lines, 2019-04-12) and 9f1fd84e15 (progress: clear previous
progress update dynamically, 2019-04-12).

This reverts commit 5b12e3123b (progress: use term_clear_line(),
2019-06-24), because covering up the entire last line while refreshing
the progress line caused unexpected problems during 'git
clone/fetch/push':
$ git clone ssh://localhost/home/szeder/src/tmp/linux.git/
Cloning into 'linux'...

remote:
remote:
remote: Enumerating objects: 999295
The length of the progress bar line can shorten when it includes
throughput and the unit changes, or when its length exceeds the width
of the terminal and is broken into two lines. In these cases the
previously displayed longer progress line should be covered up,
because otherwise the leftover characters from the previous progress
line make the output look weird [1]. term_clear_line() makes this
quite simple, as it covers up the entire last line either by using an
ANSI control sequence or by printing a terminal width worth of space
characters, depending on whether the terminal is smart or dumb.
Unfortunately, when accessing a remote repository via any non-local
protocol the remote 'git receive-pack/upload-pack' processes can't
possibly have any idea about the local terminal (smart of dumb? how
wide?) their progress will end up on. Consequently, they assume the
worst, i.e. standard-width dumb terminal, and print 80 spaces to cover
up the previously displayed progress line. The local 'git
clone/fetch/push' processes then display the remote's progress,
including these coverup spaces, with the 'remote: ' prefix, resulting
in a total line length of 88 characters. If the local terminal is
narrower than that, then the coverup gets line-wrapped, and after that
the CR at the end doesn't return to the beginning of the progress
line, but to the first column of its last line, resulting in those
repeated 'remote: <many-spaces>' lines.
By reverting 5b12e3123b (progress: use term_clear_line(),
2019-06-24) we won't cover up the entire last line, but go back to
comparing the length of the current progress bar line with the
previous one, and cover up as many characters as needed.
