e6aaa39347 Documentation: fix missing text for rev-parse --verify
The caret (^) is used as a markup symbol in AsciiDoc.  Due to the
inability of AsciiDoc to parse a line containing an unmatched caret, it
omitted the line from the output, resulting in the man page missing the
end of a sentence.  Escape this caret so that the man page ends up with
the complete text.

45067fc973 t7300: repair filesystem permissions with test_when_finished
We create a directory that cannot be removed, confirm that
it cannot be removed, and then fix it like:

  chmod 0 foo &&
  test_must_fail git clean -d -f &&
  chmod 755 foo

If the middle step fails but leaves the directory (e.g., the
bug is that clean does not notice the failure), this
pollutes the test repo with an unremovable directory. Not
only does this cause further tests to fail, but it means
that "rm -rf" fails on the whole trash directory, and the
user has to intervene manually to even re-run the test script.

We can bump the "chmod 755" recovery to a test_when_finished
block to be sure that it always runs.

b861e235bc repack: propagate pack-objects options as strings
In the original shell version of git-repack, any options
destined for pack-objects were left as strings, and passed
as a whole. Since the C rewrite in commit a1bbc6c (repack:
rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15), we now parse
these values to integers internally, then reformat the
integers when passing the option to pack-objects.

This has the advantage that we catch format errors earlier
(i.e., when repack is invoked, rather than when pack-objects
is invoked).

It has three disadvantages, though:

  1. Our internal data types may not be the right size. In
     the case of "--window-memory" and "--max-pack-size",
     these are "unsigned long" in pack-objects, but we can
     only represent a regular "int".

  2. Our parsing routines might not be the same as those of
     pack-objects. For the two options above, pack-objects
     understands "100m" to mean "100 megabytes", but repack
     does not.

  3. We have to keep a sentinel value to know whether it is
     worth passing the option along. In the case of
     "--window-memory", we currently do not pass it if the
     value is "0". But that is a meaningful value to
     pack-objects, where it overrides any configured value.

We can fix all of these by simply passing the strings from
the user along to pack-objects verbatim. This does not
actually fix anything for "--depth" or "--window", but these
are converted, too, for consistency.

ac930287ff git-svn: workaround for a bug in svn serf backend
Subversion serf backend in versions 1.8.5 and below has a bug(*) that the
function creating the descriptor of a file change -- add_file() --
doesn't make a copy of its third argument when storing it on the
returned descriptor.  As a result, by the time this field is used (in
transactions of file copying or renaming) it may well be released, and
the memory reused.

One of its possible manifestations is the svn assertion triggering on an
invalid path, with a message

svn_fspath__skip_ancestor: Assertion
`svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed.

This patch works around this bug, by storing the value to be passed as
the third argument to add_file() in a local variable with the same scope
as the file change descriptor, making sure their lifetime is the same.

* [ew: fixed in Subversion r1553376 as noted by Jonathan Nieder]

01645b7493 send-email: /etc/ssl/certs/ directory may not be usable as ca_path
When sending patches on Fedora rawhide with
git-1.8.5.2-1.fc21.x86_64 and perl-IO-Socket-SSL-1.962-1.fc21.noarch,
with the following

    [sendemail]
	    smtpencryption = tls
	    smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com
	    smtpuser = ruben@rubenkerkhof.com
	    smtpserverport = 587

git-send-email fails with:

    STARTTLS failed! SSL connect attempt failed with unknown error
    error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate
    verify failed at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-send-email line 1236.

The current code detects the presence of /etc/ssl/certs directory
(it actually is a symlink to another directory, but that does not
matter) and uses SSL_ca_path to point at it when initializing the
connection with IO::Socket::SSL or Net::SMTP::SSL.  However, on the
said platform, it seems that this directory is not designed to be
used as SSL_ca_path.  Using a single file inside that directory
(cert.pem, which is a Mozilla CA bundle) with SSL_ca_file does work,
and also not specifying any SSL_ca_file/SSL_ca_path (and letting the
library use its own default) and asking for peer verification does
work.

By removing the code that blindly defaults $smtp_ssl_cert_path to
"/etc/ssl/certs", we can prevent the codepath that treats any
directory specified with that variable as usable for SSL_ca_path
from incorrectly triggering.

This change could introduce a regression for people on a platform
whose certificate directory is /etc/ssl/certs but its IO::Socket:SSL
somehow fails to use it as SSL_ca_path without being told.  Using
/etc/ssl/certs directory as SSL_ca_path by default like the current
code does would have been hiding such a broken installation without
its user needing to do anything.  These users can still work around
such a platform bug by setting the configuration variable explicitly
to point at /etc/ssl/certs.

This change should not negate what 35035bbf (send-email: be explicit
with SSL certificate verification, 2013-07-18), which was the
original change that introduced the defaulting to /etc/ssl/certs/,
attempted to do, which is to make sure we do not communicate over
insecure connection by default, triggering warning from the library.

a74352867e revision: propagate flag bits from tags to pointees
With the previous fix 895c5ba3 (revision: do not peel tags used in
range notation, 2013-09-19), handle_revision_arg() that processes
command line arguments for the "git log" family of commands no
longer directly places the object pointed by the tag in the pending
object array when it sees a tag object.  We used to place pointee
there after copying the flag bits like UNINTERESTING and
SYMMETRIC_LEFT.

This change meant that any flag that is relevant to later history
traversal must now be propagated to the pointed objects (most often
these are commits) while starting the traversal, which is partly
done by handle_commit() that is called from prepare_revision_walk().
We did propagate UNINTERESTING, but did not do so for others, most
notably SYMMETRIC_LEFT.  This caused "git log --left-right v1.0..."
(where "v1.0" is a tag) to start losing the "leftness" from the
commit the tag points at.

2ac5e4470b revision: mark contents of an uninteresting tree uninteresting
"git rev-list --objects ^A^{tree} B^{tree}" ought to mean "I want a
list of objects inside B's tree, but please exclude the objects that
appear inside A's tree".

we see the top-level tree marked as uninteresting (i.e. ^A^{tree} in
the above example) and call mark_tree_uninteresting() on it; this
unfortunately prevents us from recursing into the tree and marking
the objects in the tree as uninteresting.

The reason why "git log ^A A" yields an empty set of commits,
i.e. we do not have a similar issue for commits, is because we call
mark_parents_uninteresting() after seeing an uninteresting commit.
The uninteresting-ness of the commit itself does not prevent its
parents from being marked as uninteresting.

Introduce mark_tree_contents_uninteresting() and structure the code
in handle_commit() in such a way that it makes it the responsibility
of the callchain leading to this function to mark commits, trees and
blobs as uninteresting, and also make it the responsibility of the
helpers called from this function to mark objects that are reachable
from them.

Note that this is a very old bug that probably dates back to the day
when "rev-list --objects" was introduced.  The line to clear
tree->object.parsed at the end of mark_tree_contents_uninteresting()
can be removed when this fix is merged to the codebase after
6e454b9a (clear parsed flag when we free tree buffers, 2013-06-05).

9892d5d454 interpret_branch_name: find all possible @-marks
When we parse a string like "foo@{upstream}", we look for
the first "@"-sign, and check to see if it is an upstream
mark. However, since branch names can contain an @, we may
also see "@foo@{upstream}". In this case, we check only the
first @, and ignore the second. As a result, we do not find
the upstream.

We can solve this by iterating through all @-marks in the
string, and seeing if any is a legitimate upstream or
empty-at mark.

Another strategy would be to parse from the right-hand side
of the string. However, that does not work for the
"empty_at" case, which allows "@@{upstream}". We need to
find the left-most one in this case (and we then recurse as
"HEAD@{upstream}").

3f6eb30f1d interpret_branch_name: avoid @{upstream} past colon
get_sha1() cannot currently parse a valid object name like
"HEAD:@{upstream}" (assuming that such an oddly named file
exists in the HEAD commit). It takes two passes to parse the
string:

  1. It first considers the whole thing as a ref, which
     results in looking for the upstream of "HEAD:".

  2. It finds the colon, parses "HEAD" as a tree-ish, and then
     finds the path "@{upstream}" in the tree.

For a path that looks like a normal reflog (e.g.,
"HEAD:@{yesterday}"), the first pass is a no-op. We try to
dwim_ref("HEAD:"), that returns zero refs, and we proceed
with colon-parsing.

For "HEAD:@{upstream}", though, the first pass ends up in
interpret_upstream_mark, which tries to find the branch
"HEAD:". When it sees that the branch does not exist, it
actually dies rather than returning an error to the caller.
As a result, we never make it to the second pass.

One obvious way of fixing this would be to teach
interpret_upstream_mark to simply report "no, this isn't an
upstream" in such a case. However, that would make the
error-reporting for legitimate upstream cases significantly
worse. Something like "bogus@{upstream}" would simply report
"unknown revision: bogus@{upstream}", while the current code
diagnoses a wide variety of possible misconfigurations (no
such branch, branch exists but does not have upstream, etc).

However, we can take advantage of the fact that a branch
name cannot contain a colon. Therefore even if we find an
upstream mark, any prefix with a colon must mean that
the upstream mark we found is actually a pathname, and
should be disregarded completely. This patch implements that
logic.

8cd4249c4c interpret_branch_name: always respect "namelen" parameter
interpret_branch_name gets passed a "name" buffer to parse,
along with a "namelen" parameter representing its length. If
"namelen" is zero, we fallback to the NUL-terminated
string-length of "name".

However, it does not necessarily follow that if we have
gotten a non-zero "namelen", it is the NUL-terminated
string-length of "name". E.g., when get_sha1() is parsing
"foo:bar", we will be asked to operate only on the first
three characters.

Yet in interpret_branch_name and its helpers, we use string
functions like strchr() to operate on "name", looking past
the length we were given.  This can result in us mis-parsing
object names.  We should instead be limiting our search to
"namelen" bytes.

There are three distinct types of object names this patch
addresses:

  - The intrepret_empty_at helper uses strchr to find the
    next @-expression after our potential empty-at.  In an
    expression like "@:foo@bar", it erroneously thinks that
    the second "@" is relevant, even if we were asked only
    to look at the first character. This case is easy to
    trigger (and we test it in this patch).

  - When finding the initial @-mark for @{upstream}, we use
    strchr.  This means we might treat "foo:@{upstream}" as
    the upstream for "foo:", even though we were asked only
    to look at "foo". We cannot test this one in practice,
    because it is masked by another bug (which is fixed in
    the next patch).

  - The interpret_nth_prior_checkout helper did not receive
    the name length at all. This turns out not to be a
    problem in practice, though, because its parsing is so
    limited: it always starts from the far-left of the
    string, and will not tolerate a colon (which is
    currently the only way to get a smaller-than-strlen
    "namelen"). However, it's still worth fixing to make the
    code more obviously correct, and to future-proof us
    against callers with more exotic buffers.

early part checks for and dispatches us to helpers for each
construct, but the code for handling @{upstream} is inline.

Let's factor this out into its own function. This makes
interpret_branch_name more readable, and will make it much
simpler to further refactor the function in future patches.

While we're at it, let's also break apart the refactored
code into a few helper functions. These will be useful if we
eventually implement similar @{upstream}-like constructs.

4c22408111 fetch-pack: do not filter out one-level refs
Currently fetching a one-level ref like "refs/foo" does not
work consistently. The outer "git fetch" program filters the
list of refs, checking each against check_refname_format.
Then it feeds the result to do_fetch_pack to actually
negotiate the haves/wants and get the pack. The fetch-pack
code does its own filter, and it behaves differently.

The fetch-pack filter looks for refs in "refs/", and then
feeds everything _after_ the slash (i.e., just "foo") into
check_refname_format.  But check_refname_format is not
designed to look at a partial refname. It complains that the
ref has only one component, thinking it is at the root
(i.e., alongside "HEAD"), when in reality we just fed it a
partial refname.

As a result, we omit a ref like "refs/foo" from the pack
request, even though "git fetch" then tries to store the
resulting ref.  If we happen to get the object anyway (e.g.,
because the ref is contained in another ref we are
fetching), then the fetch succeeds. But if it is a unique
object, we fail when trying to update "refs/foo".

We can fix this by just passing the whole refname into
check_refname_format; we know the part we were omitting is
"refs/", which is acceptable in a refname. This at least
makes the checks consistent with each other.

This problem happens most commonly with "refs/stash", which
is the only one-level ref in wide use. However, our test
does not use "refs/stash", as we may later want to restrict
it specifically (not because it is one-level, but because
of the semantics of stashes).

We may also want to do away with the multiple levels of
filtering (which can cause problems when they are out of
sync), or even forbid one-level refs entirely. However,
those decisions can come later; this fixes the most
immediate problem, which is the mismatch between the two.

08f19cfe9b Documentation: "git pull" does not have the "-m" option
Even though "--[no-]edit" can be used with "git pull", the
explanation of the interaction between this option and the "-m"
option does not make sense within the context of "git pull".  Use
the conditional inclusion mechanism to remove this part from "git
pull" documentation, while keeping it for "git merge".

d51a47552a Documentation: exclude irrelevant options from "git pull"
10eb64f5 (git pull manpage: don't include -n from fetch-options.txt,
2008-01-25) introduced a way to exclude some parts of included
source when building git-pull documentation, and later 409b8d82
(Documentation/git-pull: put verbosity options before merge/fetch
ones, 2010-02-24) attempted to use the mechanism to exclude some
parts of merge-options.txt when used from git-pull.txt.

However, the latter did not have an intended effect, because the
macro "git-pull" used to decide if the source is included in
git-pull documentation were defined a bit too late.

Define the macro before it is used to fix this.

a893346930 mv: let 'git mv file no-such-dir/' error out on Windows, too
The previous commit c57f628 (mv: let 'git mv file no-such-dir/' error out)
relies on that rename("file", "no-such-dir/") fails if the directory does not
exist (note the trailing slash).  This does not work as expected on Windows:
This rename() call does not fail, but renames "file" to "no-such-dir" (not to
"no-such-dir/file"). Insert an explicit check for this case to force an error.

This changes the error message from

   $ git mv file no-such-dir/
   fatal: renaming 'file' failed: Not a directory

to

   $ git mv file no-such-dir/
   fatal: destination directory does not exist, source=file, destination=no-such-dir/
