8d75a1d183 Documentation: turn middle-of-line tabs into spaces
These tabs happen to appear in columns where they don't stand out too
much, so the diff here is non-obvious. Some of these are rendered
differently by AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor (although the difference might
be invisible!), which is how I found a few of them. The remainder were
found using `git grep "[a-zA-Z.,)]$TAB[a-zA-Z]"`.

4c8b882ada git-svn.txt: drop escaping '\' that ends up being rendered
Escaping two *'s as "\*\*" apparently makes Asciidoctor render the
second backslash literally, so we end up with "*\*". So let's not escape
that second asterisk. The result is now "**" as intended, both in

8d8c2a5aef fsck: always compute USED flags for unreachable objects
The --connectivity-only option avoids opening every object, and instead
just marks reachable objects with a flag and compares this to the set
of all objects. This strategy is discussed in more detail in 3e3f8bd608
(fsck: prepare dummy objects for --connectivity-check, 2017-01-17).

This means that we report _every_ unreachable object as dangling.
Whereas in a full fsck, we'd have actually opened and parsed each of
those unreachable objects, marking their child objects with the USED
flag, to mean "this was mentioned by another object". And thus we can
report only the tip of an unreachable segment of the object graph as
dangling.

You can see this difference with a trivial example:

  tree=$(git hash-object -t tree -w /dev/null)
  one=$(echo one | git commit-tree $tree)
  two=$(echo two | git commit-tree -p $one $tree)

Running `git fsck` will report only $two as dangling, but with
--connectivity-only, both commits (and the tree) are reported. Likewise,
using --lost-found would write all three objects.

We can make --connectivity-only work like the normal case by taking a
separate pass over the unreachable objects, parsing them and marking
objects they refer to as USED. That still avoids parsing any blobs,
though we do pay the cost to access any unreachable commits and trees
(which may or may not be noticeable, depending on how many you have).

If neither --dangling nor --lost-found is in effect, then we can skip
this step entirely, just like we do now. That makes "--connectivity-only
--no-dangling" just as fast as the current "--connectivity-only". I.e.,
we do the correct thing always, but you can still tweak the options to
make it faster if you don't care about dangling objects.

df805ed6cf doc/fsck: clarify --connectivity-only behavior
On reading this again, there are two things that were not immediately
clear to me:

  - we do still check links to blobs, even though we don't open the
    blobs themselves

  - we do not do the normal fsck checks, even for non-blob objects we do
    open

Let's reword it to make these points a little more clear.

1ede45e44b merge-options.txt: correct wording of --no-commit option
The former wording implied that --no-commit would always cause the
merge operation to "pause" and allow the user to make further changes
and/or provide a special commit message for the merge commit.  This
is not the case for fast-forward merges, as there is no merge commit
to create.  Without a merge commit, there is no place where it makes
sense to "stop the merge and allow the user to tweak changes"; doing
that would require a full rebase of some sort.

Since users may be unaware of whether their branches have diverged or
not, modify the wording to correctly address fast-forward cases as well
and suggest using --no-ff with --no-commit if the point is to ensure
that the merge stops before completing.

d76ce4f734 log,diff-tree: add --combined-all-paths option
The combined diff format for merges will only list one filename, even if
rename or copy detection is active.  For example, with raw format one
might see:

  ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM	describe.c
  ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM	bar.sh
  ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR	phooey.c

This doesn't let us know what the original name of bar.sh was in the
first parent, and doesn't let us know what either of the original names
of phooey.c were in either of the parents.  In contrast, for non-merge
commits, raw format does provide original filenames (and a rename score
to boot).  In order to also provide original filenames for merge
commits, add a --combined-all-paths option (which must be used with
either -c or --cc, and is likely only useful with rename or copy
detection active) so that we can print tab-separated filenames when
renames are involved.  This transforms the above output to:

  ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM	desc.c	desc.c	desc.c
  ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM	foo.sh	bar.sh	bar.sh
  ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR	fooey.c	fuey.c	phooey.c

Further, in patch format, this changes the from/to headers so that
instead of just having one "from" header, we get one for each parent.
For example, instead of having

  --- a/phooey.c
  +++ b/phooey.c

we would see

  --- a/fooey.c
  --- a/fuey.c
  +++ b/phooey.c

e11ff8975b Revert "rebase: introduce a shortcut for --reschedule-failed-exec"
This patch was contributed only as a tentative "we could introduce a
convenient short option if we do not want to change the default behavior
in the long run" patch, opening the discussion whether other people
agree with deprecating the current behavior in favor of the rescheduling
behavior.

But the consensus on the Git mailing list was that it would make sense
to show a warning in the near future, and flip the default
rebase.rescheduleFailedExec to reschedule failed `exec` commands by
default. See e.g.
<CAGZ79kZL5CRqCDRb6B-EedUm8Z_i4JuSF2=UtwwdRXMitrrOBw@mail.gmail.com>

So let's back out that patch that added the `-y` short option that we
agreed was not necessary or desirable.

This reverts commit 81ef8ee75d.

e92aa0e4ef revert "checkout: introduce checkout.overlayMode config"
This reverts 1495ff7da5 ("checkout: introduce checkout.overlayMode
config", 2019-01-08) and thus removes the checkout.overlayMode config
option.

The option was originally introduced to give users the option to make
the new no-overlay behaviour the default.  However users may be using
'git checkout' in scripts, even though it is porcelain.  Users setting
the option to false may actually end up accidentally breaking scripts.

With the introduction of a new subcommand that will make the behaviour
the default, the config option will not be needed anymore anyway.
Revert the commit and remove the config option, so we don't risk
breaking scripts.

2afe9278a2 doc-diff: don't cd_to_toplevel
`usage` tries to call $0, which might very well be "./doc-diff", so if
we `cd_to_toplevel` before calling `usage`, we'll end with an error to
the effect of "./doc-diff: not found" rather than a friendly `doc-diff
-h` output. This regressed in ad51743007 ("doc-diff: add --clean mode to
remove temporary working gunk", 2018-08-31) where we moved the call to
`cd_to_toplevel` to much earlier.

A general fix might be to teach git-sh-setup to save away the absolute
path for $0 and then use that, instead. I'm not aware of any portable
way of doing that, see, e.g., d2addc3b96 ("t7800: readlink may not be
available", 2016-05-31).

An early version of this patch moved `cd_to_toplevel` back to where it
was before ad51743007 and taught the "--clean" code to cd on its own.
But let's try instead to get rid of the cd-ing entirely. We don't really
need it and we can work with absolute paths instead. There's just one
use of $PWD that we need to adjust by simply dropping it.

9fce19a431 diff-tree doc: correct & remove wrong documentation
The documentation saying that diff-tree didn't support anything except
literal prefixes hasn't been true since
d38f28093e ("tree_entry_interesting(): support wildcard matching",

Since this command uses pathspecs like most other commands, there's no
need to show examples of how the various "cmd <revs> <paths>"
invocations work.

Furthermore, the "git diff-tree --abbrev 5319e4" example shown here
never worked. We'd ended up with that through a combination of
62b42d3487 ("docs: fix some antique example output", 2011-05-26) and

39ab4d0951 config: allow giving separate author and committer idents
The author.email, author.name, committer.email and committer.name
settings are analogous to the GIT_AUTHOR_* and GIT_COMMITTER_*
environment variables, but for the git config system. This allows them
to be set separately for each repository.

Git supports setting different authorship and committer
information with environment variables. However, environment variables
are set in the shell, so if different authorship and committer
information is needed for different repositories an external tool is
required.

This adds support to git config for author.email, author.name,
committer.email and committer.name  settings so this information
can be set per repository.

Also, it generalizes the fmt_ident function so it can handle author vs
committer identification.

aab2a1ae48 Support working-tree-encoding "UTF-16LE-BOM"
Users who want UTF-16 files in the working tree set the .gitattributes
like this:
test.txt working-tree-encoding=UTF-16

The unicode standard itself defines 3 allowed ways how to encode UTF-16.
The following 3 versions convert all back to 'g' 'i' 't' in UTF-8:

a) UTF-16, without BOM, big endian:
$ printf "\000g\000i\000t" | iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 | od -c
0000000    g   i   t

b) UTF-16, with BOM, little endian:
$ printf "\377\376g\000i\000t\000" | iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 | od -c
0000000    g   i   t

c) UTF-16, with BOM, big endian:
$ printf "\376\377\000g\000i\000t" | iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 | od -c
0000000    g   i   t

Git uses libiconv to convert from UTF-8 in the index into ITF-16 in the
working tree.
After a checkout, the resulting file has a BOM and is encoded in "UTF-16",
in the version (c) above.
This is what iconv generates, more details follow below.

iconv (and libiconv) can generate UTF-16, UTF-16LE or UTF-16BE:

d) UTF-16
$ printf 'git' | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16 | od -c
0000000  376 377  \0   g  \0   i  \0   t

e) UTF-16LE
$ printf 'git' | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16LE | od -c
0000000    g  \0   i  \0   t  \0

f)  UTF-16BE
$ printf 'git' | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16BE | od -c
0000000   \0   g  \0   i  \0   t

There is no way to generate version (b) from above in a Git working tree,
but that is what some applications need.
(All fully unicode aware applications should be able to read all 3 variants,
but in practise we are not there yet).

When producing UTF-16 as an output, iconv generates the big endian version
with a BOM. (big endian is probably chosen for historical reasons).

iconv can produce UTF-16 files with little endianess by using "UTF-16LE"
as encoding, and that file does not have a BOM.

Not all users (especially under Windows) are happy with this.
Some tools are not fully unicode aware and can only handle version (b).

Today there is no way to produce version (b) with iconv (or libiconv).
Looking into the history of iconv, it seems as if version (c) will
be used in all future iconv versions (for compatibility reasons).

Solve this dilemma and introduce a Git-specific "UTF-16LE-BOM".
libiconv can not handle the encoding, so Git pick it up, handles the BOM
and uses libiconv to convert the rest of the stream.
(UTF-16BE-BOM is added for consistency)

2eb14bb2d4 git-instaweb: add Python builtin http.server support
With this patch it is possible to launch git-instaweb by using
Python http.server CGI handler via `-d python` option.

git-instaweb generates a small wrapper around the http.server
(in GIT_DIR/gitweb/) that address a limitation of the CGI handler
where CGI scripts have to be in a cgi-bin subdirectory and
directory index can't be easily changed. To keep the implementation
small, gitweb is running on url `/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi` and an automatic
redirection is done when opening `/`.

The generated wrapper is compatible with both Python 2 and 3.

Python is by default installed on most modern Linux distributions
which enables running `git instaweb -d python` without needing
anything else.

By not displaying the redundant information, the reader concentrates

based on information inferred from the date on the machine running the
git command at the time the command is executed.

While the format is more useful to humans by dropping inferred

5af7417bd8 commit-graph: rename "large edges" to "extra edges"
The optional 'Large Edge List' chunk of the commit graph file stores
parent information for commits with more than two parents, and the
names of most of the macros, variables, struct fields, and functions
related to this chunk contain the term "large edges", e.g.
write_graph_chunk_large_edges().  However, it's not a really great
term, as the edges to the second and subsequent parents stored in this
chunk are not any larger than the edges to the first and second
parents stored in the "main" 'Commit Data' chunk.  It's the number of
edges, IOW number of parents, that is larger compared to non-merge and
"regular" two-parent merge commits.  And indeed, two functions in
'commit-graph.c' have a local variable called 'num_extra_edges' that
refer to the same thing, and this "extra edges" term is much better at
describing these edges.

So let's rename all these references to "large edges" in macro,
variable, function, etc. names to "extra edges".  There is a
GRAPH_OCTOPUS_EDGES_NEEDED macro as well; for the sake of consistency
rename it to GRAPH_EXTRA_EDGES_NEEDED.

We can do so safely without causing any incompatibility issues,
because the term "large edges" doesn't come up in the file format
itself in any form (the chunk's magic is {'E', 'D', 'G', 'E'}, there
is no 'L' in there), but only in the specification text.  The string
"large edges", however, does come up in the output of 'git
commit-graph read' and in tests looking at its input, but that command
is explicitly documented as debugging aid, so we can change its output
and the affected tests safely.

3d036eb0d2 pack-objects: create pack.useSparse setting
The '--sparse' flag in 'git pack-objects' changes the algorithm
used to enumerate objects to one that is faster for individual
users pushing new objects that change only a small cone of the
working directory. The sparse algorithm is not recommended for a
server, which likely sends new objects that appear across the
entire working directory.

Create a 'pack.useSparse' setting that enables this new algorithm.
This allows 'git push' to use this algorithm without passing a
'--sparse' flag all the way through four levels of run_command()
calls.

If the '--no-sparse' flag is set, then this config setting is
overridden.

4f6d26b167 list-objects: consume sparse tree walk
When creating a pack-file using 'git pack-objects --revs' we provide
a list of interesting and uninteresting commits. For example, a push
operation would make the local topic branch be interesting and the
known remote refs as uninteresting. We want to discover the set of
new objects to send to the server as a thin pack.

We walk these commits until we discover a frontier of commits such
that every commit walk starting at interesting commits ends in a root
commit or unintersting commit. We then need to discover which
non-commit objects are reachable from  uninteresting commits. This
commit walk is not changing during this series.

The mark_edges_uninteresting() method in list-objects.c iterates on
the commit list and does the following:

* If the commit is UNINTERSTING, then mark its root tree and every
  object it can reach as UNINTERESTING.

* If the commit is interesting, then mark the root tree of every
  UNINTERSTING parent (and all objects that tree can reach) as
  UNINTERSTING.

At the very end, we repeat the process on every commit directly
given to the revision walk from stdin. This helps ensure we properly
cover shallow commits that otherwise were not included in the
frontier.

The logic to recursively follow trees is in the
mark_tree_uninteresting() method in revision.c. The algorithm avoids
duplicate work by not recursing into trees that are already marked
UNINTERSTING.

Add a new 'sparse' option to the mark_edges_uninteresting() method
that performs this logic in a slightly different way. As we iterate
over the commits, we add all of the root trees to an oidset. Then,
call mark_trees_uninteresting_sparse() on that oidset. Note that we
include interesting trees in this process. The current implementation
of mark_trees_unintersting_sparse() will walk the same trees as
the old logic, but this will be replaced in a later change.

Add a '--sparse' flag in 'git pack-objects' to call this new logic.
Add a new test script t/t5322-pack-objects-sparse.sh that tests this
option. The tests currently demonstrate that the resulting object
list is the same as the old algorithm. This includes a case where
both algorithms pack an object that is not needed by a remote due to
limits on the explored set of trees. When the sparse algorithm is
changed in a later commit, we will add a test that demonstrates a
change of behavior in some cases.

0bbc0bc574 {fetch,upload}-pack: sideband v2 fetch response
Currently, a response to a fetch request has sideband support only while
the packfile is being sent, meaning that the server cannot send notices
until the start of the packfile.

Extend sideband support in protocol v2 fetch responses to the whole
response. upload-pack will advertise it if the
uploadpack.allowsidebandall configuration variable is set, and
fetch-pack will automatically request it if advertised.

If the sideband is to be used throughout the whole response, upload-pack
will use it to send errors instead of prefixing a PKT-LINE payload with
"ERR ".

This will be tested in a subsequent patch.

87c2d9d310 filter-options: expand scaled numbers
When communicating with a remote server or a subprocess, use
expanded numbers rather than numbers with scaling suffix in the
object filter spec (e.g.  "limit:blob=1k" becomes
"limit:blob=1024").

Update the protocol docs to note that clients should always perform this
expansion, to allow for more compatibility between server
implementations.

c813a7c35f list-objects-filter: teach tree:# how to handle >0
Implement positive values for <depth> in the tree:<depth> filter. The
exact semantics are described in Documentation/rev-list-options.txt.

The long-term goal at the end of this is to allow a partial clone to
eagerly fetch an entire directory of files by fetching a tree and
specifying <depth>=1. This, for instance, would make a build operation
fast and convenient. It is fast because the partial clone does not need
to fetch each file individually, and convenient because the user does
not need to supply a sparse-checkout specification.

Another way of considering this feature is as a way to reduce
round-trips, since the client can get any number of levels of
directories in a single request, rather than wait for each level of tree
objects to come back, whose entries are used to construct a new request.
