Although it is probably an uncommon operation, there is no
reason to disallow it, as it works just fine. It is the
reverse of a cherry-pick of a root commit, which is already
allowed.
We do have to tweak one check on whether we have a merge
commit, which assumed we had at least one parent.

The merge-recursive strategy already handles root commits;
it cherry-picks the difference between the empty tree and
the root commit's tree.
However, for external strategies, we dereference NULL and
segfault while building the argument list. Instead, let's
handle this by passing the empty tree sha1 to the merge
script.

The names and e-mails are sanitized by fmt_ident() when creating commits,
so that they do not contain "<" nor ">", and the "committer" and "author"
lines in the commit object will always be in the form:
("author" | "committer") name SP "<" email ">" SP timestamp SP zone
When parsing the email part out, the current code looks for SP starting
from the end of the email part, but the author could obfuscate the address
as "author at example dot com".
We should instead look for SP followed by "<", to match the logic of the
side that formats these lines.

Currently, "git reflog" overrides some command line options such as

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
cmd_log_init() sets up some default rev options and then calls
setup_revisions(), so that a caller cannot set up own defaults: Either
they get overriden by cmd_log_init() (if set before) or they override
the command line (if set after). We even complain about this in a
comment to cmd_log_reflog().
Therefore, separate the two steps so that one can still call
cmd_log_init() or, alternatively, cmd_log_init_defaults() followed by
cmd_log_init_finish() (and set defaults in between).
No functional change so far.

The configuration created by plain --mirror is dangerous and
useless, and we now have --mirror=fetch and --mirror=push to
replace it. Let's warn the user.
One alternative to this is to try to guess which type the
user wants. In a non-bare repository, a fetch mirror doesn't
make much sense, since it would overwrite local commits. But
in a bare repository, you might use either type, or even
both (e.g., if you are acting as an intermediate drop-point
across two disconnected networks).
So rather than try for complex heuristics, let's keep it
simple. The user knows what they're trying to do, so let
them tell us.

git-remote currently has one option, "--mirror", which sets
up mirror configuration which can be used for either
fetching or pushing. It looks like this:
[remote "mirror"]
url = wherever
fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
mirror = true
However, a remote like this can be dangerous and confusing.
Specifically:
1. If you issue the wrong command, it can be devastating.
You are not likely to "push" when you meant to "fetch",
but "git remote update" will try to fetch it, even if
you intended the remote only for pushing. In either
case, the results can be quite destructive. An
unintended push will overwrite or delete remote refs,
and an unintended fetch can overwrite local branches.
2. The tracking setup code can produce confusing results.
The fetch refspec above means that "git checkout -b new
master" will consider refs/heads/master to come from
the remote "mirror", even if you only ever intend to
push to the mirror. It will set up the "new" branch to
track mirror's refs/heads/master.
3. The push code tries to opportunistically update
tracking branches. If you "git push mirror foo:bar",
it will see that we are updating mirror's
refs/heads/bar, which corresponds to our local
refs/heads/bar, and will update our local branch.
To solve this, we split the concept into "push mirrors" and
"fetch mirrors". Push mirrors set only remote.*.mirror,
solving (2) and (3), and making an accidental fetch write
only into FETCH_HEAD. Fetch mirrors set only the fetch
refspec, meaning an accidental push will not force-overwrite
or delete refs on the remote end.
The new syntax is "--mirror=<fetch|push>". For
compatibility, we keep "--mirror" as-is, setting up both
types simultaneously.

It doesn't make sense to use "-m" on a mirror, since "-m"
sets up the HEAD symref in the remotes namespace, but with
mirror, we are by definition not using a remotes namespace.
Similarly, it does not make much sense to specify refspecs
with --mirror. For a mirror you plan to push to, those
refspecs will be ignored. For a mirror you are fetching
from, there is no point in mirroring, since the refspec
specifies everything you want to grab.
There is one case where "--mirror -t <X>" would be useful.
Because <X> is used as-is in the refspec, and because we
append it to to refs/, you could mirror a subset of the
hierarchy by doing:
git remote add --mirror -t 'tags/*'
But using anything besides a single branch as an argument to
"-t" is not documented and only happens to work, so closing
it off is not a serious regression.

The fetch-pack/upload-pack protocol relies on the underlying transport
(local pipe or TCP socket) to have enough slack to allow one window worth
of data in flight without blocking the writer. Traditionally we always
relied on being able to have two windows of 32 "have"s in flight (roughly
3k bytes) to stream.
The recent "progressive-stride" change allows "fetch-pack" to send up to
1024 "have"s without reading any response from "upload-pack". The
outgoing pipe of "upload-pack" can be clogged with many ACK and NAK that
are unread, while "fetch-pack" is still stuffing its outgoing pipe with
more "have"s, leading to a deadlock.
Revert the change unless we are in stateless rpc (aka smart-http) mode, as
using a large window full of "have"s is still a good way to help reduce
the number of back-and-forth, and there is no buffering issue there (it is
strictly "ping-pong" without an overlap).
Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
When 'no-done' protocol extension is used, the upload-pack (i.e. the
server side) process stops listening to the fetch-pack after issuing the
final NAK, and starts sending the generated pack data back, but there may
be more "have" send by the latter in flight that the fetch-pack is
expecting to be responded with ACK/NAK. This will typically result in a
deadlock (both will block on write that the other end never reads) or
SIGPIPE on the fetch-pack end (upload-pack will finish writing a small
pack and goes away).
Disable it unless fetch-pack is running under smart-http, where there is
no such streaming issue.

When we merge into an unborn branch, there are basically two
steps:
1. Write the sha1 of the new commit into the ref pointed
to by HEAD.
2. Update the index with the new content, and check it out
to the working tree.
We currently do them in this order. However, (2) is the step
that is much more likely to fail, since it can be blocked by
things like untracked working tree files. When it does, the
merge fails and we are left with an empty index but an
updated HEAD.
This patch switches the order, so that a failure in updating
the index leaves us unchanged. Of course, a failure in
updating the ref now leaves us with an updated index and
mis-matched HEAD. That is arguably not much better, but it
is probably less likely to actually happen.

Introduce --min-parents and --max-parents options which limit the
revisions to those commits which have at least (or at most) that many
commits, where negative arguments for --max-parents= denote infinity
(i.e. no upper limit).
In particular:
--max-parents=1 is the same as --no-merges;
--min-parents=2 is the same as --merges;
--max-parents=0 shows only roots; and
--min-parents=3 shows only octopus merges
Using --min-parents=n and --max-parents=m with n>m gives you what you ask
for (i.e. nothing) for obvious reasons, just like when you give --merges
(show only merge commits) and --no-merges (show only non-merge commits) at
the same time.
Also, introduce --no-min-parents and --no-max-parents to do the obvious
thing for convenience.
We compute the number of parents only when we limit by that, so there
is no performance impact when there are no limiters.
