This reverts commit 6f924265a0, which
started to require that we have an executable git available in order
to say "make clean", which gives us a chicken-and-egg problem.
Having to have Git installed, or be in a repository, in order to be
able to run an optional "doc-diff" tool is fine. Requiring either
in order to run "make clean" is a different story.

fetch_objects() currently does not set exact_oid in struct ref when
invoking transport_fetch_refs(). If the server supports ref-in-want,
fetch_pack() uses this field to determine whether a wanted ref should be
requested as a "want-ref" line or a "want" line; without the setting of
exact_oid, the wrong line will be sent.
Set exact_oid, so that the correct line is sent.

the former cannot be made into a thin wrapper around the

In commit b00bf1c9a8 ("git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the
default", 2018-06-27), several arguments were given for transplanting
empty commits without halting and asking the user for confirmation on
each commit. These arguments were incomplete because the logic clearly
assumed the only cases under consideration were transplanting of commits
with empty messages (see the comment about "There are two sources for
commits with empty messages). It didn't discuss or even consider
rewords, squashes, etc. where the user is explicitly asked for a new
commit message and provides an empty one. (My bad, I totally should
have thought about that at the time, but just didn't.)
Rewords and squashes are significantly different, though, as described
by SZEDER:
Let's suppose you start an interactive rebase, choose a commit to
squash, save the instruction sheet, rebase fires up your editor, and
then you notice that you mistakenly chose the wrong commit to
squash. What do you do, how do you abort?
Before [that commit] you could clear the commit message, exit the
editor, and then rebase would say "Aborting commit due to empty
commit message.", and you get to run 'git rebase --abort', and start
over.
But [since that commit, ...] saving the commit message as is would
let rebase continue and create a bunch of unnecessary objects, and
then you would have to use the reflog to return to the pre-rebase
state.
Also, he states:
The instructions in the commit message template, which is shown for
'reword' and 'squash', too, still say...
# Please enter the commit message for your changes. Lines starting
# with '#' will be ignored, and an empty message aborts the commit.
These are sound arguments that when editing commit messages during a
sequencer operation, that if the commit message is empty then the
operation should halt and ask the user to correct. The arguments in
commit b00bf1c9a8 (referenced above) still apply when transplanting
previously created commits with empty commit messages, so the sequencer
should not halt for those.
Furthermore, all rationale so far applies equally for cherry-pick as for
rebase. Therefore, make the code default to --allow-empty-message when
transplanting an existing commit, and to default to halting when the
user is asked to edit a commit message and provides an empty one -- for
both rebase and cherry-pick.

If passed both --no-deref and --stdin, update-ref would error out with a
general usage message that did not at all suggest these options were
incompatible. The manpage for update-ref did suggest through its
synopsis line that --no-deref and --stdin were incompatible, but it sadly
also incorrectly suggested that -d and --no-deref were incompatible. So
the help around the --no-deref option is buggy in a few ways.
The --stdin option did provide a different mechanism for avoiding
dereferencing symbolic-refs: adding a line reading
option no-deref
before every other directive in the input. (Technically, if the user
wants to do the extra work of first determining which refs they want to
update or delete are symbolic, then they only need to put the extra
"option no-deref" lines before the updates of those refs. But in some
cases, that's more work than just adding the "option no-deref" before
every other directive.)
It's easier to allow the user to just pass --no-deref along with --stdin
in order to tell update-ref that the user doesn't want any symbolic ref
to be dereferenced. It also makes the update-ref documentation simpler.
Implement that, and update the documentation to match.

check_one_conflict() compares `i` to `active_nr` in two places to avoid
buffer overruns, but left out an important third location.
The code did used to have a check here comparing i to active_nr, back
before commit fb70a06da2 ("rerere: fix an off-by-one non-bug",
2015-06-28), however the code at the time used an 'if' rather than a
'while' meaning back then that this loop could not have read past the
end of the array, making the check unnecessary and it was removed.
Unfortunately, in commit 5eda906b28 ("rerere: handle conflicts with
multiple stage #1 entries", 2015-07-24), the 'if' was changed to a
'while' and the check comparing i and active_nr was not re-instated,
leading to this problem.

If there is more than one potential moved block and the longest block
is not the first element of the array of potential blocks then the
block is cut short. With --color-moved=blocks this can leave moved
lines unpainted if the shortened block does not meet the block length
requirement. With --color-moved=zebra then in addition to the
unpainted lines the moved color can change in the middle of a single
block.

't3701-add-interactive.sh', added in 7288e12cce (add--interactive: do
not expand pathspecs with ls-files, 2017-03-14), checks the GIT_TRACE
of 'git add -p' to ensure that the name of a tracked file wasn't
passed around as argument to any of the commands executed as a result
of undesired pathspec expansion. This check is done with 'grep' using
the filename on its own as the pattern, which is too loose a pattern,
and would match any occurrences of the filename in the trace output,
not just those as command arguments. E.g. if a developer were to
litter the index handling code with trace_printf()s printing, among
other things, the name of the just processed cache entry, then that
pattern would mistakenly match these as well, and would fail the test.
Tighten this 'grep' pattern to only match trace lines that show the
executed commands.

We currently build cleanly with -Wformat-security, and it's
a good idea to make sure we continue to do so (since calls
that trigger the warning may be security vulnerabilities).
Note that we cannot use the stronger -Wformat-nonliteral, as
there are case where we are clever with passing around
pointers to string literals. E.g., bisect_rev_setup() takes
bad_format and good_format parameters. These ultimately come
from literals, but they still trigger the warning.
Some of these might be fixable (e.g., by passing flags from
which we locally select a format), and might even be worth
fixing (not because of security, but just because it's an
easy mistake to pass the wrong format). But there are other
cases which are likely quite hard to fix (we actually
generate formats in a local buffer in some cases). So let's
punt on that for now and start with -Wformat-security, which
is supposed to catch the most important cases.

The earlier attempt barfed when given a CONTENT_LENGTH that is
set to an empty string. RFC 3875 is fairly clear that in this
case we should not read any message body, but we've been reading
through to the EOF in previous versions (which did not even pay
attention to the environment variable), so keep that behaviour for
now in this late update.
* mk/http-backend-content-length:
http-backend: allow empty CONTENT_LENGTH
This reverts commit 7e25437d35, reversing
changes made to 00624d608c.
v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~1 (submodule: ensure core.worktree is set after
update, 2018-06-18) assumes an "absorbed" submodule layout, where the
submodule's Git directory is in the superproject's .git/modules/
directory and .git in the submodule worktree is a .git file pointing
there. In particular, it uses $GIT_DIR/modules/$name to find the
submodule to find out whether it already has core.worktree set, and it
uses connect_work_tree_and_git_dir if not, resulting in
fatal: could not open sub/.git for writing
The context behind that patch: v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~2 (submodule: unset
core.worktree if no working tree is present, 2018-06-12) unsets
core.worktree when running commands like "git checkout
--recurse-submodules" to switch to a branch without the submodule. If
a user then uses "git checkout --no-recurse-submodules" to switch back
to a branch with the submodule and runs "git submodule update", this
patch is needed to ensure that commands using the submodule directly
are aware of the path to the worktree.
It is late in the release cycle, so revert the whole 3-patch series.
We can try again later for 2.20.

According to RFC3875, empty environment variable is equivalent to unset,
and for CONTENT_LENGTH it should mean zero body to read.
However, unset CONTENT_LENGTH is also used for chunked encoding to indicate
reading until EOF. At least, the test "large fetch-pack requests can be split
across POSTs" from t5551 starts faliing, if unset or empty CONTENT_LENGTH is
treated as zero length body. So keep the existing behavior as much as possible.
Add a test for the case.

We avoid re-creating our temporary worktree if it's already
there. But we may run into a situation where the worktree
has been deleted, but an entry still exists in
$GIT_DIR/worktrees.
Older versions of git-worktree would annoyingly create a
series of duplicate entries. Recent versions now detect and
prevent this, allowing you to override with "-f". Since we
know that the worktree in question was just our temporary
workspace, it's safe for us to always pass "-f".

We provide a reopen_tempfile() function, which is in turn
used by reopen_lockfile(). The idea is that a caller may
want to rewrite the tempfile without letting go of the lock.
And that's what our one caller does: after running
add--interactive, "commit -p" will update the cache-tree
extension of the index and write out the result, all while
holding the lock.
However, because we open the file with only the O_WRONLY
flag, the existing index content is left in place, and we
overwrite it starting at position 0. If the new index after
updating the cache-tree is smaller than the original, those
final bytes are not overwritten and remain in the file. This
results in a corrupt index, since those cruft bytes are
interpreted as part of the trailing hash (or even as an
extension, if there are enough bytes).
This bug actually pre-dates reopen_tempfile(); the original
code from 9c4d6c0297 (cache-tree: Write updated cache-tree
after commit, 2014-07-13) has the same bug, and those lines
were eventually refactored into the tempfile module. Nobody
noticed until now for two reasons:
- the bug can only be triggered in interactive mode
("commit -p" or "commit -i")
- the size of the index must shrink after updating the
cache-tree, which implies a non-trivial deletion. Notice
that the included test actually has to create a 2-deep
hierarchy. A single level is not enough to actually cause
shrinkage.
The fix is to truncate the file before writing out the
second index. We can do that at the caller by using
ftruncate(). But we shouldn't have to do that. There is no
other place in Git where we want to open a file and
overwrite bytes, making reopen_tempfile() a confusing and
error-prone interface. Let's pass O_TRUNC there, which gives
callers the same state they had after initially opening the
file or lock.
It's possible that we could later add a caller that wants
something else (e.g., to open with O_APPEND). But this is
the only caller we've had in the history of the codebase.
Let's punt on doing anything more clever until another one
comes along.
