28d836c815 test: allow running the tests under "prove"
You can run "make DEFAULT_TEST_TARGET=prove test" to run the test under
"prove" (or $(PROVE) if set).  The output is a bit easier to read when
running many tests in parallel.

1f2baa78c6 config: treat non-existent config files as empty
The git_config() function signals error by returning -1 in
two instances:

  1. An actual error occurs in opening a config file (parse
     errors cause an immediate die).

  2. Of the three possible config files, none was found.

However, this second case is often not an error at all; it
simply means that the user has no configuration (they are
outside a repo, and they have no ~/.gitconfig file). This
can lead to confusing errors, such as when the bash
completion calls "git config --list" outside of a repo. If
the user has a ~/.gitconfig, the command completes
succesfully; if they do not, it complains to stderr.

This patch allows callers of git_config to distinguish
between the two cases. Error is signaled by -1, and
otherwise the return value is the number of files parsed.
This means that the traditional "git_config(...) < 0" check
for error should work, but callers who want to know whether
we parsed any files or not can still do so.

cfd1a9849c diff: handle lines containing only whitespace and tabs better
When a line contains nothing but whitespace with at least one tab
and the core.whitespace config option contains blank-at-eol, the
whitespace on the line is being printed twice, once unhighlighted
(unless otherwise matched by one of the other core.whitespace values),
and a second time highlighted for blank-at-eol.

Update the leading indentation check to stop checking when it reaches
the trailing whitespace.

38ec8d3e26 git-gui: correct assignment of work-tree
git-gui currently uses its own logic to determine the work-tree setting
but 'git rev-parse --toplevel' directly returns git's work-tree value
by calling get_git_work_tree() and is therefore always correct.

This fixes an inability to handle some repository configurations. In
particular where .git is a file containing a path to the real directory
(a cross-platform symbolic link).
To continue to support older versions than 1.7.0, setting the work-tree
by normalizing the --show-cdup value is more reliable as git-dir might be
outside the work-tree entirely.

3e3e1ef532 t4203: do not let "git shortlog" DWIM based on tty
The "shortlog" command defaults to HEAD only when its standard input is
connected to a terminal; otherwise it acts in the traditional "filter"
mode to read and summarize the "git log" output.

Two new tests added to t4203 assumed that the command always default to
HEAD, but when the standard input is closed (or connected to /dev/null),
it output empty, which is a summary of its empty input, causing the test
to break.

e32dfec79f repack: place temporary packs under .git/objects/pack/
git-pack-objects is already careful to start out its temporary packs
under .git/objects/pack/ (cf. 8b4eb6b, Do not perform cross-directory
renames when creating packs, 2008-09-22), but git-repack did not
respond in kind so the effort was lost when the filesystem boundary is
exactly at that directory.

Let git-repack pass a path under .git/objects/pack/ as the base for
its temporary packs.

This means we might need the $PACKDIR sooner (before the pack-objects
invocation), so move the mkdir up just to be safe.

Also note that the only use of *.pack is in the find invocation way
before the pack-objects call, so the temporary packs will not suddenly
show up in any wildcards because of the directory change.

d7c411b71d push: pass --progress down to git-pack-objects
When pushing via builtin transports (like file://, git://), the
underlying transport helper (in this case, git-pack-objects) did not get
the --progress option, even if it was passed to git push.

Fix this, and update the tests to reflect this.

Note that according to the git-pack-objects documentation, we can safely
apply the usual --progress semantics for the transport commands like
clone and fetch (and for pushing over other smart transports).

e674c17db2 test_terminal: ensure redirections work reliably
For terminal tests that capture output/stderr, the TTY prerequisite
warning does not quite work for commands like

	test_terminal foo >out 2>err

because the warning gets "swallowed" up by the redirection that's
supposed only to be done by the subcommand.

Even worse, the outcome depends on whether stdout was already a
terminal (in which case test_terminal is a noop) or not (in which case
test_terminal introduces a pseudo-tty in the middle of the pipeline).

	$ test_terminal.perl sh -c 'test -t 1 && echo >&2 YES' >out
	YES
	$ sh -c 'test -t 1 && echo >&2 YES' >out
	$

So:

 - use the test_terminal script even when running with "-v".

 - skip tests that require a terminal when the test_terminal
   script is unusable because IO::Pty is not installed.

 - write the "need to declare TTY prerequisite" message to fd 4,
   where it will be printed when running tests with -v, rather
   than being swallowed up by an unrelated redireciton.

996621eb4d test_terminal: catch use without TTY prerequisite
It is easy to forget to declare the TTY prerequisite when
writing tests on a system where it would always be satisfied
(because IO::Pty is installed; see v1.7.3-rc0~33^2, 2010-08-16
for example).  Automatically detect this problem so there is
no need to remember.

	test_terminal: need to declare TTY prerequisite
	test_must_fail: command not found: test_terminal echo hi

test_terminal returns status 127 in this case to simulate
not being available.

Also replace the SIMPLEPAGERTTY prerequisite on one test with
"SIMPLEPAGER,TTY", since (1) the latter is supported now and
(2) the prerequisite detection relies on the TTY prereq being
explicitly declared.

e23f436c35 tests: test terminal output to both stdout and stderr

terminal. Others (like progress meters) care about stderr.

This patch sets up both. Technically speaking, we could go
further and set up just one (because either the other goes
to a terminal, or because our tests are only interested in
one). This patch does both to keep the interface to
lib-terminal simple.

64f003abd9 send-pack: avoid redundant "pack-objects died with strange error"
Saying "pack-objects died with strange error" after "pack-objects died
of signal 13" seems kind of redundant.  The latter message was
introduced when the run-command API changed to report abnormal exits
on behalf of the caller (v1.6.5-rc0~86^2~5, 2009-07-04).

Similarly, after a controlled pack-objects failure (detectable as a
normal exit with nonzero status), a "died with strange error" message
would be redundant next to the message from pack-objects itself.

So leave off the "strange error" messages.

The result should look something like this:

	$ git push sf master
	Counting objects: 21542, done.
	Compressing objects: 100% (4179/4179), done.
	fatal: Unable to create temporary file: Permission denied
	error: pack-objects died of signal 13
	error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://sf.net/gitroot/project/project'
	$

Or in the "controlled exit" case (contrived example):

	[...]
	fatal: delta size changed
	error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://example.com/foo/bar'
	$

d8d2eb7d6b mailmap: fix use of freed memory
On an x86_64 system (F13-based), I ran these commands in an empty directory:

    git init

      '<jdoe@example.com> <jdoe@example.COM>' \
      'John <jdoe@example.com>' > .mailmap
    git shortlog < /dev/null

Here's the result:

    (reading log message from standard input)
    *** glibc detected *** git: free(): invalid pointer: 0x0000000000f53730 ***
    ======= Backtrace: =========

    git[0x48c2a5]
    git[0x4b9858]
    ...
    zsh: abort (core dumped)  git shortlog

What happened?

Some .mailmap entry is of the <email1> <email2> form,
while a subsequent one looks like "User Name <Email2>,
and the two email addresses on the right are not identical
but are "equal" when using a case-insensitive comparator.

Then, when add_mapping is processing the latter line, new_email is NULL
and we free me->email, yet do not replace it with a new strdup'd string.
Thus, when later we attempt to use the buffer behind that ->email pointer,
we reference freed memory.

The solution is to free ->email and ->name only if we're about to replace them.

33f072f891 submodule sync: Update "submodule.<name>.url" for empty directories
If a submodule directory has not been filled by "git submodule update"
yet, then "git submodule sync" must still update the super-project's
configuration for submodule.<name>.url.

This situation occurs when switching between branches with a module from
different urls and other branches without the submodule.

34a6bbb549 completion: Support the DWIM mode for git checkout
Ever since commit 70c9ac2 (DWIM: "git checkout frotz" to "git checkout
-b frotz origin/frotz"), git checkout has supported a DWIM mode where
it creates a local tracking branch for a remote branch if just the name
of the remote branch is specified on the command-line and only one remote
has a branch with that name. Teach the bash completion script to understand
this DWIM mode and provide such remote-tracking branch names as possible
completions.

2794ad5244 fast-import: Allow filemodify to set the root
v1.7.3-rc0~75^2 (Teach fast-import to import subtrees named by tree id,
2010-06-30) has a shortcoming - it doesn't allow the root to be set.
Extend this behaviour by allowing the root to be referenced as the
empty path, "".

For a command (like filter-branch --subdirectory-filter) that wants
to commit a lot of trees that already exist in the object db, writing
undeltified objects as loose files only to repack them later can
involve a significant amount of overhead.
(23% slow-down observed on Linux 2.6.35, worse on Mac OS X 10.6)

Fortunately we have fast-import (which is one of the only git commands
that will write to a pack directly) but there is not an advertised way
to tell fast-import to commit a given tree without unpacking it.

This patch changes that, by allowing

	M 040000 <tree id> ""

as a filemodify line in a commit to reset to a particular tree without
any need to parse it.  For example,

	M 040000 4b825dc642 ""

is a synonym for the deleteall command and the fast-import equivalent of

	git read-tree 4b825dc642

c3898111ac bash: support pretty format aliases
Users can have their own pretty format aliases since 8028184 (pretty:
add aliases for pretty formats, 2010-05-02), so let's offer those
after '--pretty=' and '--format=' for 'log' and 'show', too.

Similar to the completion of aliases, this will invoke 'git config'
each time pretty aliases needs to be completed, so changes in pretty.*
configuration will be reflected immediately.

2a5da75579 bash: support more 'git notes' subcommands and their options
The current completion function for 'git notes' only supported the
'edit' and 'show' subcommands and none of their options.  This patch
adds support for all missing subcommands, options, and their arguments
(files or refs), if any.

The code responsible for completing subcommand looks different
compared to the completion functions of other git commands with
subcommands.  This is because of the '--ref <notes-ref>' option which
comes before the subcommand (i.e. git notes --ref <notes-ref> add).

2c7c3877de bisect: check for mandatory argument of 'bisect replay'
'git bisect replay' has a mandatory logfile argument, but the current
implementation doesn't check whether the user has specified one.  When
the user omits the logfile argument, this leads to the following
unhelpful error message:

  cannot read  for replaying

So, check for the mandatory argument first, and provide a more
meaningful error message when it is omitted.
