5b0a78c1c0 t2104: make sure split index mode is off for the version test
Version tests only make sense when all entries are in the same file,
so we can see if version is downgraded to 2 if 3 is not required.

fe191fcaa5 Git 2.0: git svn: Set default --prefix='origin/' if --prefix is not given
git-svn by default puts its Subversion-tracking refs directly in
refs/remotes/*. This runs counter to Git's convention of using
refs/remotes/$remote/* for storing remote-tracking branches.

Furthermore, combining git-svn with regular git remotes run the risk of
clobbering refs under refs/remotes (e.g. if you have a git remote
called "tags" with a "v1" branch, it will overlap with the git-svn's
tracking branch for the "v1" tag from Subversion.

Even though the git-svn refs stored in refs/remotes/* are not "proper"
remote-tracking branches (since they are not covered by a proper git
remote's refspec), they clearly represent a similar concept, and would
benefit from following the same convention.

For example, if git-svn tracks Subversion branch "foo" at
refs/remotes/foo, and you create a local branch refs/heads/foo to add
some commits to be pushed back to Subversion (using "git svn dcommit),
then it is clearly unhelpful of Git to throw

  warning: refname 'foo' is ambiguous.

every time you checkout, rebase, or otherwise interact with the branch.

The existing workaround for this is to supply the --prefix=quux/ to
git svn init/clone, so that git-svn's tracking branches end up in
refs/remotes/quux/* instead of refs/remotes/*. However, encouraging
users to specify --prefix to work around a design flaw in git-svn is
suboptimal, and not a long term solution to the problem. Instead,
git-svn should default to use a non-empty prefix that saves
unsuspecting users from the inconveniences described above.

This patch will only affect newly created git-svn setups, as the
--prefix option only applies to git svn init (and git svn clone).
Existing git-svn setups will continue with their existing (lack of)
prefix. Also, if anyone somehow prefers git-svn's old layout, they
can recreate that by explicitly passing an empty prefix (--prefix "")
on the git svn init/clone command line.

The patch changes the default value for --prefix from "" to "origin/",
updates the git-svn manual page, and fixes the fallout in the git-svn
testcases.

(Note that this patch might be easier to review using the --word-diff
and --word-diff-regex=. diff options.)

3994e64d77 transport-helper: fix sync issue on crashes
When a remote helper crashes while pushing we should revert back to the
state before the push, however, it's possible that `git fast-export`
already finished its job, and therefore has exported the marks already.

This creates a synchronization problem because from that moment on
`git fast-{import,export}` will have marks that the remote helper is not
aware of and all further commands fail (if those marks are referenced).

The fix is to tell `git fast-export` to export to a temporary file, and
only after the remote helper has finishes successfully, move to the
final destination.

ff7a1c677a test: fix t5560 on FreeBSD
Since fd0a8c2e (first appearing in v1.7.0), the
t/t5560-http-backend-noserver.sh test has used a backslash escape
inside a ${} expansion in order to specify a literal '?' character.

Unfortunately the FreeBSD /bin/sh does not interpret this correctly.

In a POSIX compliant shell, the following:

x='one?two?three'
echo "${x#*\?}"

Would be expected to produce this:

two?three

When using the FreeBSD /bin/sh instead you get this:

one?two?three

In fact the FreeBSD /bin/sh treats the backslash as a literal
character to match so that this:

y='one\two\three'
echo "${y#*\?}"

Produces this unexpected value:

wo\three

In this case the backslash is not only treated literally, it also
fails to defeat the special meaning of the '?' character.

Instead, we can use the [...] construct to defeat the special meaning
of the '?' character and match it exactly in a way that works for the
FreeBSD /bin/sh as well as other POSIX /bin/sh implementations.

Changing the example like so:

x='one?two?three'
echo "${x#*[?]}"

Produces the expected output using the FreeBSD /bin/sh.

Therefore, change the use of \? to [?] in order to be compatible with
the FreeBSD /bin/sh which allows t/t5560-http-backend-noserver.sh to
pass on FreeBSD again.

00764ca10e test: fix t7001 cp to use POSIX options
Since 11502468 and 04c1ee57 (both first appearing in v1.8.5), the
t7001-mv test has used "cp -a" to perform a copy in several of the
tests.

However, the "-a" option is not required for a POSIX cp utility and
some platforms' cp utilities do not support it.

The POSIX equivalent of -a is -R -P -p.

Change "cp -a" to "cp -R -P -p" so that the t7001-mv test works
on systems with a cp utility that only implements the POSIX
required set of options and not the "-a" option.

2db1a43f41 add ignore_missing_links mode to revwalk
When pack-objects is computing the reachability bitmap to
serve a fetch request, it can erroneously die() if some of
the UNINTERESTING objects are not present. Upload-pack
throws away HAVE lines from the client for objects we do not
have, but we may have a tip object without all of its
ancestors (e.g., if the tip is no longer reachable and was
new enough to survive a `git prune`, but some of its
reachable objects did get pruned).

In the non-bitmap case, we do a revision walk with the HAVE
objects marked as UNINTERESTING. The revision walker
explicitly ignores errors in accessing UNINTERESTING commits
to handle this case (and we do not bother looking at
UNINTERESTING trees or blobs at all).

When we have bitmaps, however, the process is quite
different.  The bitmap index for a pack-objects run is
calculated in two separate steps:

First, we perform an extensive walk from all the HAVEs to
find the full set of objects reachable from them. This walk
is usually optimized away because we are expected to hit an
object with a bitmap during the traversal, which allows us
to terminate early.

Secondly, we perform an extensive walk from all the WANTs,
which usually also terminates early because we hit a commit
with an existing bitmap.

Once we have the resulting bitmaps from the two walks, we
AND-NOT them together to obtain the resulting set of objects
we need to pack.

When we are walking the HAVE objects, the revision walker
does not know that we are walking it only to mark the
results as uninteresting. We strip out the UNINTERESTING flag,
because those objects _are_ interesting to us during the
first walk. We want to keep going to get a complete set of
reachable objects if we can.

We need some way to tell the revision walker that it's OK to
silently truncate the HAVE walk, just like it does for the
UNINTERESTING case. This patch introduces a new
`ignore_missing_links` flag to the `rev_info` struct, which
we set only for the HAVE walk.

It also adds tests to cover UNINTERESTING objects missing
from several positions: a missing blob, a missing tree, and
a missing parent commit. The missing blob already worked (as
we do not care about its contents at all), but the other two
cases caused us to die().

Note that there are a few cases we do not need to test:

  1. We do not need to test a missing tree, with the blob
     still present. Without the tree that refers to it, we
     would not know that the blob is relevant to our walk.

  2. We do not need to test a tip commit that is missing.
     Upload-pack omits these for us (and in fact, we
     complain even in the non-bitmap case if it fails to do
     so).

f80d1f95f0 t4212: loosen far-in-future test for AIX
One of the tests in t4212 checks our behavior when we feed
gmtime a date so far in the future that it gives up and
returns NULL. Some implementations, like AIX, may actually
just provide us a bogus result instead.

It's not worth it for us to come up with heuristics that
guess whether the return value is sensible or not. On good
platforms where gmtime reports the problem to us with NULL,
we will print the epoch value. On bad platforms, we will
print garbage.  But our test should be written for the
lowest common denominator so that it passes everywhere.

57b6dc76f2 t4209: factor out helper function test_log()
Twelve tests in t4209 follow the same simple pattern for description,
git log call and checking.  Extract that shared logic into a helper
function named test_log.  Test specifications become a lot more
compact, new tests can be added more easily.

b0f7c7cf86 t4209: set up expectations up front
Instead of creating an expect file for each test, build three files with
the possible valid values during setup and use them in the tests.  This
shortens the test code and saves nine calls to git rev-parse.

ec160ae12b update-index: teach --cacheinfo a new syntax "mode,sha1,path"
The "--cacheinfo" option is unusual in that it takes three option
parameters.  An option with an optional parameter is bad enough.  An
option with multiple parameters is simply insane.

Introduce a new syntax that takes these three things concatenated
together with a comma, which makes the command line syntax more
uniform across subcommands, while retaining the traditional syntax
for backward compatiblity.

If we were designing the "update-index" subcommand from scratch
today, it may probably have made sense to make this option (and
possibly others) a command mode option that does not take any option
parameter (hence no need for arg-help).  But we do not live in such
an ideal world, and as far as I can tell, the command still supports
(and must support) mixed command modes in a single invocation, e.g.

    $ git update-index path1 --add path2 \
        --cacheinfo 100644 $(git hash-object --stdin -w <path3) path3 \
	path4

must make sure path1 is already in the index and update all of these
four paths.  So this is probably as far as we can go to fix this issue
without risking to break people's existing scripts.

ce7f8745aa t1502: protect runs of SPs used in the indentation
The expected output from the argument help use runs of SPs to align
the description of each option; a careless use of --whitespace=fix
can turn leading parts of them into appropriate number of HTs.
Prevent such a breakage by prefixing all the expected lines with
leading vertical bars in the original and stripping them with a
small sed script.

9bab5b6061 rev-parse --parseopt: option argument name hints
Built-in commands can specify names for option arguments when usage text
is generated for a command.  sh based commands should be able to do the
same.

Option argument name hint is any text that comes after [*=?!] after the
argument name up to the first whitespace.

8a2e8da367 userdiff: have 'cpp' hunk header pattern catch more C++ anchor points
The hunk header pattern 'cpp' is intended for C and C++ source code, but
it is actually not particularly useful for the latter, and even misses
some use-cases for the former.

The parts of the pattern have the following flaws:

- The first part matches an identifier followed immediately by a colon
  and arbitrary text and is intended to reject goto labels and C++
  access specifiers (public, private, protected). But this pattern also
  rejects C++ constructs, which look like this:

    MyClass::MyClass()
    MyClass::~MyClass()
    MyClass::Item MyClass::Find(...

- The second part matches an identifier followed by a list of qualified
  names (i.e. identifiers separated by the C++ scope operator '::')
  separated by space or '*' followed by an opening parenthesis (with
  space between the tokens). It matches function declarations like

    struct item* get_head(...
    int Outer::Inner::Func(...

  Since the pattern requires at least two identifiers, GNU-style
  function definitions are ignored:

    void
    func(...

  Moreover, since the pattern does not allow punctuation other than '*',
  the following C++ constructs are not recognized:

  . template definitions:
      template<class T> int func(T arg)

  . functions returning references:
      const string& get_message()

  . functions returning templated types:
      vector<int> foo()

  . operator definitions:
      Value operator+(Value l, Value r)

- The third part of the pattern finally matches compound definitions.
  But it forgets about unions and namespaces, and also skips single-line
  definitions

    struct random_iterator_tag {};

  because no semicolon can occur on the line.

Change the first pattern to require a colon at the end of the line
(except for trailing space and comments), so that it does not reject
constructor or destructor definitions.

Notice that all interesting anchor points begin with an identifier or
keyword. But since there is a large variety of syntactical constructs
after the first "word", the simplest is to require only this word and
accept everything else. Therefore, this boils down to a line that begins
with a letter or underscore (optionally preceded by the C++ scope
operator '::' to accept functions returning a type anchored at the
global namespace). Replace the second and third part by a single pattern
that picks such a line.

This has the following desirable consequence:

- All constructs mentioned above are recognized.

and the following likely desirable consequences:

- Definitions of global variables and typedefs are recognized:

    int num_entries = 0;
    extern const char* help_text;
    typedef basic_string<wchar_t> wstring;

- Commonly used marco-ized boilerplate code is recognized:

    BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CCanvas,CWnd)
    Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(MyStruct)
    PATTERNS("tex",...)

  (The last one is from this very patch.)

but also the following possibly undesirable consequence:

- When a label is not on a line by itself (except for a comment) it is
  no longer rejected, but can appear as a hunk header if it occurs at
  the beginning of a line:

    next:;

IMO, the benefits of the change outweigh the (possible) regressions by a
large margin.
