180619a585 notes.h/c: Propagate combine_notes_fn return value to add_note() and beyond
The combine_notes_fn functions uses a non-zero return value to indicate
failure. However, this return value was converted to a call to die()
in note_tree_insert().

Instead, propagate this return value out to add_note(), and return it
from there to enable the caller to handle errors appropriately.

Existing add_note() callers are updated to die() upon failure, thus
preserving the current behaviour. The only exceptions are copy_note()
and notes_cache_put() where we are able to propagate the add_note()
return value instead.

This patch has been improved by the following contributions:
- Jonathan Nieder: Future-proof by always checking add_note() return value
- Jonathan Nieder: Improve clarity of final if-condition in note_tree_insert()

172b6428d0 do not overwrite untracked during merge from unborn branch
In case HEAD does not point to a valid commit yet, merge is
implemented as a hard reset. This will cause untracked files to be
overwritten.

Instead, assume the empty tree for HEAD and do a regular merge. An
untracked file will cause the merge to abort and do nothing. If no
conflicting files are present, the merge will have the same effect
as a hard reset.

0188f6b3c1 add: do not rely on dtype being NULL behavior
Commit c84de70 (excluded_1(): support exclude files in index -
2009-08-20) added support for excluded() where dtype can be NULL. It
was designed specifically for index matching because there was no
other way to extract dtype information from index. It did not support
wildcard matching (for example, "a*/" pattern would fail to match).

The code was probably misread when commit 108da0d (git add: Add the
"--ignore-missing" option for the dry run - 2010-07-10) was made
because DT_UNKNOWN happens to be zero (NULL) too.

Do not pass DT_UNKNOWN/NULL to excluded(), instead pass a pointer to a
variable that contains DT_UNKNOWN. The real dtype will be extracted
from worktree by excluded(), as expected.

7dce19d374 fetch/pull: Add the --recurse-submodules option
Until now you had to call "git submodule update" (without -N|--no-fetch
option) or something like "git submodule foreach git fetch" to fetch
new commits in populated submodules from their remote.

This could lead to "(commits not present)" messages in the output of
"git diff --submodule" (which is used by "git gui" and "gitk") after
fetching or pulling new commits in the superproject and is an obstacle for
implementing recursive checkout of submodules. Also "git submodule
update" cannot fetch changes when disconnected, so it was very easy to
forget to fetch the submodule changes before disconnecting only to
discover later that they are needed.

This patch adds the "--recurse-submodules" option to recursively fetch
each populated submodule from the url configured in the .git/config of the
submodule at the end of each "git fetch" or during "git pull" in the
superproject. The submodule paths are taken from the index.

The hidden option "--submodule-prefix" is added to "git fetch" to be able
to print out the full paths of nested submodules.

commit message is seeded with the correctly formatted subject line.

Example usage:

24305cd700 apply: don't segfault on binary files with missing data
Usually when applying a binary diff generated without
--binary, it will be rejected early, as we don't even have
the full sha1 of the pre- and post-images.

However, if the diff is generated with --full-index (but not
--binary), then we will actually try to apply it. If we have
the postimage blob, then we can take a shortcut and never
even look at the binary diff at all (e.g., this can happen
when rebasing changes within a repository).

If we don't have the postimage blob, though, we try to look
at the actual fragments, of which there are none, and get a
segfault. This patch checks explicitly for that case and
complains to the user instead of segfaulting. We need to
keep the check at a low level so that the "shortcut" case
above continues to work.

We also add a test that demonstrates the segfault. While
we're at it, let's also explicitly test the shortcut case.

71064a956b make pack-objects a bit more resilient to repo corruption
Right now, packing valid objects could fail when creating a thin pack
simply because a pack edge object used as a preferred base is corrupted.
Since preferred base objects are not strictly needed to produce a valid
pack, let's not consider the inability to read them as a fatal error.
Delta compression may well be attempted against other objects in the
search window.  To avoid warning storms (we are in the inner loop of
the delta search window) a warning is emitted only on the first
occurrence.

64f003abd9 send-pack: avoid redundant "pack-objects died with strange error"
Saying "pack-objects died with strange error" after "pack-objects died
of signal 13" seems kind of redundant.  The latter message was
introduced when the run-command API changed to report abnormal exits
on behalf of the caller (v1.6.5-rc0~86^2~5, 2009-07-04).

Similarly, after a controlled pack-objects failure (detectable as a
normal exit with nonzero status), a "died with strange error" message
would be redundant next to the message from pack-objects itself.

So leave off the "strange error" messages.

The result should look something like this:

	$ git push sf master
	Counting objects: 21542, done.
	Compressing objects: 100% (4179/4179), done.
	fatal: Unable to create temporary file: Permission denied
	error: pack-objects died of signal 13
	error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://sf.net/gitroot/project/project'
	$

Or in the "controlled exit" case (contrived example):

	[...]
	fatal: delta size changed
	error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://example.com/foo/bar'
	$

only at the resulting strbuf's length, and never treating it
as a C string. The code path for regular rev-list, however,
used printf("%s"), which resulted in truncated output. This
patch uses fwrite instead, like the --graph code path.

a1980c4efc apply: Recognize epoch timestamps with : in the timezone
Some patches have a timezone formatted like ‘-08:00’ instead of
‘-0800’ (e.g. http://lwn.net/Articles/131729/), so git apply would
fail to recognize the epoch timestamp of deleted files and would
create empty files instead.  Teach it to support both formats, and add
a test case.

6355e505ba builtin/revert.c: don't dereference a NULL pointer
cherry-pick will segfault when transplanting a root commit if the --ff
option is used.  This happens because the "parent" pointer is set to NULL
when the commit being cherry-picked has no parents.  Later, when "parent"
is dereferenced, the cherry-pick segfaults.

Fix this by checking whether "parent" is NULL before dereferencing it and
add a test for this case of cherry-picking a root commit with --ff.

4ce6fb8058 fast-export: ensure that a renamed file is printed after all references
t9350 sets up a commit where a file is both copied and renamed. The output
of fast-export for this commit should look like this:

  author ...
  committer ...
  from :19
  C "file2" "file4"
  R "file2" "file5"

The order of the two modification lines is derived from the result that
the diff machinery produces.

060df62 (fast-export: Fix output order of D/F changes) inserted a qsort
call that modifies the order of the diff result. Unfortunately, qsort need
not be stable. Therefore, it is possible that the 'R' line appears before
the 'C' line and the resulting fast-import stream is incorrect.

Fix it by forcing that the rename entry is printed after all other
modification lines with the same file name.

e78d01bf4e builtin/merge_recursive.c: Add an usage string and make use of it.
This improves the usage output by adding builtin_merge_recursive_usage string
that follows the same pattern used by the other builtin commands.

The previous output for git merger-recursive was:
usage: merge-recursive <base>... -- <head> <remote> ...

Now the output is:
usage: git merge-recursive <base>... -- <head> <remote> ...

Since cmd_merge_recursive is used to handle four different commands we need
the %s in the usage string, so the following example:

$ git merge-subtree -h

Will output:
usage: git merge-subtree <base>... -- <head> <remote> ...

message is meant to work with show_all_errors, but this fixes a call to
setup_unpack_trees_porcelain() in git_merge_trees() which did not set

add_rejected_path() used to double-check whether it was running in

58a1ece478 merge-recursive --patience
Teach the merge-recursive strategy a --patience option to use the
"patience diff" algorithm, which tends to improve results when
cherry-picking a patch that reorders functions at the same time as
refactoring them.

To support this, struct merge_options and ll_merge_options gain an
xdl_opts member, so programs can use arbitrary xdiff flags (think
"XDF_IGNORE_WHITESPACE") in a git-aware merge.

git merge and git rebase can be passed the -Xpatience option to
use this.

3ee1757bae builtin/fetch.c: ignore merge config when not fetching from branch's remote
When 'git fetch' is supplied a single argument, it tries to match it
against a configured remote and then fetch the refs specified by the
named remote's fetchspec.  Additionally, or alternatively, if the current
branch has a merge ref configured, and if the name of the remote supplied
to fetch matches the one in the branch's configuration, then git also adds
the merge ref to the list of refs to update.

If the argument to fetch does not specify a named remote, or if the name
supplied does not match the remote configured for the current branch, then
the current branch's merge configuration should not be considered.

git currently mishandles the case when the argument to fetch specifies a
GIT URL(i.e. not a named remote) and the current branch has a configured
merge ref.  In this case, fetch should ignore the branch's merge ref and
attempt to fetch from the remote repository's HEAD branch.  But, since
fetch only checks _whether_ the current branch has a merge ref configured,
and does _not_ check whether the branch's configured remote matches the
command line argument (until later), it will mistakenly enter the wrong
branch of an 'if' statement and will not fall back to fetch the HEAD branch.
The fetch ends up doing nothing and returns with a successful zero status.

Fix this by comparing the remote repository's name to the branch's remote
name, in addition to whether it has a configured merge ref, sooner, so that
fetch can correctly decide whether the branch's configuration is interesting
or not, and fall back to fetching from the remote's HEAD branch when
appropriate.

This fixes the test in t5510.

175f6e59f6 checkout: respect diff.ignoreSubmodules setting
When 'git checkout' reports uncommitted changes, it also does so for
submodules.

The default mode is now to look really hard into submodules, not only
for different commits, but also for modified files. Since this can be
pretty expensive when there are a lot (and large) submodules, there is
the diff.ignoreSubmodules option.

Let's respect that setting when 'git checkout' reports the uncommitted
changes, since it does nothing else than a 'git diff --name-status'.

1fda91b511 Fix 'git log' early pager startup error case
We start the pager too early for several git commands, which results in
the errors sometimes going to the pager rather than show up as errors.

This is often hidden by the fact that we pass in '-X' to less by default,
which causes 'less' to exit for small output, but if you do

  export LESS=-S

you can then clearly see the problem by doing

  git log --prretty

which shows the error message ("fatal: unrecognized argument: --prretty")
being sent to the pager.

This happens for pretty much all git commands that use USE_PAGER, and then
check arguments separately. But "git diff" does it too early too (even
though it does an explicit setup_pager() call)

This only fixes it for the trivial "git log" family case.

That doesn't tell the user what he should use instead. Expand on the

5a12c8864b apply: handle traditional patches with space in filename
To discover filenames from the --- and +++ lines in a traditional
unified diff, currently "git apply" scans forward for a whitespace
character on each line and stops there.  It can't use the whole line
because "diff -u" likes to include timestamps, like so:

 --- foo	2000-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500
 +++ bar	2010-07-12 16:56:50.020000414 -0500

The whitespace-seeking heuristic works great, even when the tab
has been converted to spaces by some email + copy-and-paste
related corruption.

Except for one problem: if the filename itself contains whitespace,
the inferred filename will be too short.

When Giuseppe ran into this problem, it was for a file creation
patch (for debian/licenses/LICENSE.global BSD-style Chromium).
So one can't use the list of files present in the index to deduce an
appropriate filename (not to mention that way lies madness; see
v0.99~402, 2005-05-31).

Instead, look for a timestamp and use that if present to mark the end
of the filename.  If no timestamp is present, the old heuristic is
used, with one exception: the space character \040 is not considered
terminating whitespace any more unless it is followed by a timestamp.

3ba7e6e29a config: run setup_git_directory_gently() sooner
For the pager choice (and the choice to paginate) to reflect the
current repository configuration, the repository needs to be
located first.

2cb60093e6 bundle: run setup_git_directory_gently() sooner
Without this change, “git -p bundle” does not always
respect the repository-local “[core] pager” setting.

It is hard to notice because subcommands other than
“git bundle unbundle” do not produce much output.

d1ea896290 apply: run setup_git_directory_gently() sooner
As v1.7.2~16^2 (2010-07-14) explains, without this change,
“git --paginate apply” can ignore the repository-local
“[core] pager” configuration.

314eeb6e48 cherry-pick/revert: Use advise() for hints
When cherry-pick fails after picking a large series of commits, it can
be hard to pick out the error message and advice.  Prefix the advice
with “hint: ” to help.

Before:

    error: could not apply 7ab78c9... foo
      After resolving the conflicts,
    mark the corrected paths with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
    and commit the result with:

            git commit -c 7ab78c9a7898b87127365478431289cb98f8d98f

After:

    error: could not apply 7ab78c9... foo
    hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths
    hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
    hint: and commit the result with 'git commit -c 7ab78c9'

981ff5c37a cherry-pick/revert: Use error() for failure message
When cherry-pick fails after picking a large series of commits, it can
be hard to pick out the error message and advice.  Clarify the error
and prefix it with “error: ” to help.

Before:

	Automatic cherry-pick failed.  [...advice...]

After:

	error: could not apply 7ab78c9... Do something neat.
	[...advice...]

2a41dfb03b Introduce advise() to print hints
Like error(), warn(), and die(), advise() prints a short message
with a formulaic prefix to stderr.

It is local to revert.c for now because I am not sure this is
the right API (we may want to take an array of advice lines or a
boolean argument for easy suppression of unwanted advice).

130ab8ab9c Eliminate “Finished cherry-pick/revert” message
When cherry-pick was written (v0.99.6~63, 2005-08-27), “git commit”
was quiet, and the output from cherry-pick provided useful information
about the progress of a rebase.

Now next to the output from “git commit”, the cherry-pick notification
is so much noise (except for the name of the picked commit).

 $ git cherry-pick ..topic
 Finished cherry-pick of 499088b.
 [detached HEAD 17e1ff2] Move glob module to libdpkg
  Author: Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>
  8 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-)
  rename {src => lib/dpkg}/glob.c (98%)
  rename {src => lib/dpkg}/glob.h (93%)
 Finished cherry-pick of ae947e1.
 [detached HEAD 058caa3] libdpkg: Add missing symbols to Versions script
  Author: Guillem Jover <guillem@debian.org>

 $

The noise is especially troublesome when sifting through the output of
a rebase or multiple cherry-pick that eventually failed.

With the commit subject, it is already not hard to figure out where
the commit came from.  So drop the “Finished” message.

ed36854651 fetch: allow command line --tags to override config
Originally, if remote.<name>.tagopt was set, the --tags and option would
have no effect when given to git fetch. So if
tagopt="--no-tags"

	git fetch --tags

would not actually fetch tags.

This patch changes this behavior to only follow what is written in the
config if there is no option passed by the command line.
