a0327c0edc git p4 test: fix badp4dir test
The construct used to get the return code was flawed, in that
errors in the &&-chain before the semicolon were not caught.  Use
the standard test_expect_code instead.

Set PATH in a subshell instead of relying on the bashism of
setting it just for a single command.

And fix the grep line so it doesn't worry about grep segfaults,
and doesn't fail for i18n issues.

9b6513ac6f git p4 test: split up big t9800 test
The original t9800 test code has a mix of assorted topics, some
of which are big enough to deserve their own homes.
Interdependencies between the topics make it confusing when
trying to study one in isolation.  And it takes so long to run
that debugging an individual test is difficult.

Split out three big chunks of tests into their own files:

    t9812-git-p4-wildcards.sh gets the 8 p4 wildcard tests

    t9813-git-p4-preserve-users.sh gets the 4 --preserve-user tests

    t9814-git-p4-rename.sh gets the 2 copy and rename tests

Test 9800 execution time drops from 29 sec to 9 sec.  The
sequential time to run all tests is a slower due to the three
extra p4d startup/shutdown sequences, but the overall parallel
execution time is about the same, at 52 sec.

23bd0c99f7 git p4 test: use real_path to resolve p4 client symlinks
The p4 program is finicky about making sure the recorded client Root
matches the current working directory.  The way it discovers the latter
seems to be to inspect shell variable $PWD.  This could involve symlinks,
that while leading to the same place as the client Root, look different,
and cause p4 to fail.

Resolve all client paths using "test-path-utils real_path $path".  This
removes ".." and resolves all symlinks.

Discovered while running with --root=/dev/shm, which is a link to
/run/shm.

ff59f6da84 fast-export: quote paths with spaces
A path containing a space must be quoted when used as an
argument to either the copy or rename commands (because
unlike other commands, the path is not the final thing on
the line for those commands).

Commit 6280dfdc3b (fast-export: quote paths in output,
2011-08-05) previously attempted to fix fast-export's
quoting by passing all paths through quote_c_style().
However, that function does not consider the space to be a
character which requires quoting, so let's special-case the
space inside print_path(). This will cause space-containing
paths to also be quoted in other commands where such quoting
is not strictly necessary, but it does not hurt to do so.

The test from 6280dfdc3b did not detect this because, while
it does introduce renames in the export stream, it does not
actually turn on rename detection, so they were presented as
pairs of deletions/adds. Using "-M" reveals the bug.

0e8593dc5b config: write to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config file when appropriate
Teach git to write to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config if

 - it already exists,
 - $HOME/.gitconfig file doesn't, and
 - The --global option is used.

Otherwise, write to $HOME/.gitconfig when the --global option is
given, as before.

If the user doesn't create $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config, there is
absolutely no change. Users can use this new file only if they want.

If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is either not set or empty, $HOME/.config/git/config
will be used.

Advice for users who often come back to an old version of Git: you
shouldn't create this file.

dc79687e0b Let core.excludesfile default to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/ignore
To use the feature of core.excludesfile, the user needs:

 1. to create such a file,

 2. and add configuration variable to point at it.

Instead, we can make this a one-step process by choosing a default value
which points to a filename in the user's $HOME, that is unlikely to
already exist on the system, and only use the presence of the file as a
cue that the user wants to use that feature.

And we use "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config/git}/ignore" as such a
file, in the same directory as the newly added configuration file
("${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config/git}/config).  The use of this
directory is in line with XDG specification as a location to store
such application specific files.

21cf322791 config: read (but not write) from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config file
Teach git to read the "gitconfig" information from a new location,
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config; this allows the user to avoid
cluttering $HOME with many per-application configuration files.

In the order of reading, this file comes between the global
configuration file (typically $HOME/.gitconfig) and the system wide
configuration file (typically /etc/gitconfig).

We do not write to this new location (yet).

If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is either not set or empty, $HOME/.config/git/config
will be used. This is in line with XDG specification.

If the new file does not exist, the behavior is unchanged.

304970dd5d diff-no-index: exit(1) if 'diff --quiet <repo file> <external file>' finds changes
When running 'git diff --quiet <file1> <file2>', if file1 or file2
is outside the repository, it will exit(0) even if the files differ.
It should exit(1) when they differ.

This happens because 'diff_no_index' looks at the 'found_changes'
member from 'diff_options' to determine if changes were made.  This
is the wrong thing to do, since it is only set if xdiff is actually
run and it finds a change (the diff machinery will optimize out the
xdiff call when it is not necessary) and in that case HAS_CHANGED
flag needs to be taken into account.

Use diff_result_code() that knows all these details for the correct
exit value instead.

b7be4366ea completion: respect $GIT_DIR
The __gitdir() helper function finds out the path of the git
repository by running 'git rev-parse --git-dir'.  However, it has a
shortcut first to avoid the overhead of running a git command in a
subshell when the current directory is at the top of the work tree,
i.e. when it contains a '.git' subdirectory.

If the 'GIT_DIR' environment variable is set then it specifies the
path to the git repository, and the autodetection of the '.git'
directory is not necessary.  However, $GIT_DIR is only taken into
acocunt by 'git rev-parse --git-dir', and the check for the '.git'
subdirectory is performed first, so it wins over the path given in
$GIT_DIR.

There are several completion (helper) functions that depend on
__gitdir(), and when the above case triggers the completion script
will do weird things, like offering refs, aliases, or stashes from a
different repository, or displaying wrong or broken prompt, etc.

So check first whether $GIT_DIR is set, and only proceed with checking
the '.git' directory in the current directory if it isn't.  'git
rev-parse' would also check whether the path in $GIT_DIR is a proper
'.git' directory, i.e. 'HEAD', 'refs/', and 'objects/' are present and
accessible, but we don't have to be that thorough for the bash prompt.
And we've lived with an equally permissive check for '.git' in the
current working directory for years anyway.

46284dd152 remove the impression of unexpectedness when access is denied
If a server accessed through ssh is denying access git will currently
issue the message

	"fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly"

as the last line. This sounds as if something really ugly just happened.
Since this is a quite typical situation in which users regularly get
we do not say that if it happens at the beginning when reading the
remote heads.

If its in the very first beginning of reading the remote heads it is
very likely an authentication error or a missing repository.

If it happens later during reading the remote heads we still indicate
that it happened during this initial contact phase.

023e37c377 verify_filename(): ask the caller to chose the kind of diagnosis
verify_filename() can be called in two different contexts. Either we
just tried to interpret a string as an object name, and it fails, so
we try looking for a working tree file (i.e. we finished looking at
revs that come earlier on the command line, and the next argument
must be a pathname), or we _know_ that we are looking for a
pathname, and shouldn't even try interpreting the string as an
object name.

For example, with this change, we get:

  $ git log COPYING HEAD:inexistant
  fatal: HEAD:inexistant: no such path in the working tree.
  Use '-- <path>...' to specify paths that do not exist locally.
  $ git log HEAD:inexistant
  fatal: Path 'inexistant' does not exist in 'HEAD'

d7236c4395 sha1_name: do not trigger detailed diagnosis for file arguments
diagnose_invalid_sha1_path() is meant to be called to diagnose a
misspelt <treeish>:<pathname> when <pathname> does not exist in
<treeish>.  However, the code may call it if <treeish>:<pathname> is
invalid (which triggers another call with only_to_die == 1), but for
another reason. This happens when calling e.g.

  git log existing-file HEAD:existing-file

because existing-file is a path and not a revision, the code
verifies that the arguments that follow to be paths.  This leads to
an incorrect message like "existing-file does not exist in HEAD",
even though the path exists in HEAD.

Check that the search for <pathname> in <treeish> fails before
triggering the diagnosis.
