Many tests depend on that symbolic links work. This introduces a check
that sets the prerequisite tag SYMLINKS if the file system supports
symbolic links. Since so many tests have to check for this prerequisite,
we do the check in test-lib.sh, so that we don't need to repeat the test
in many scripts.
To check for 'ln -s' failures, you can use a FAT partition on Linux:
$ mkdosfs -C git-on-fat 1000000
$ sudo mount -o loop,uid=j6t,gid=users,shortname=winnt git-on-fat /mnt
Clone git to /mnt and
$ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0001.1[34] t0010 t1301 t403[34] t4129.[47] t5701.7
t7701.3 t9100 t9101.26 t9119 t9124.[67] t9200.10 t9600.6' \
make test
(These additionally skipped tests depend on POSIX permissions that FAT on
Linux does not provide.)

Some tests can be run only if a particular prerequisite is available. For
example, some tests require that an UTF-8 locale is available. Here we
introduce functions that are used in this way:
1. Insert code that checks whether the prerequisite is available. If it is,
call test_set_prereq with an arbitrary tag name that subsequently can be
used to check for the prerequisite:
case $LANG in
*.utf-8)
test_set_prereq UTF8
;;
esac
2. In the calls to test_expect_success pass the tag name:
test_expect_success UTF8 '...description...' '...tests...'
3. There is an auxiliary predicate that can be used anywhere to test for
a prerequisite explicitly:
if test_have_prereq UTF8
then
...code to be skipped if prerequisite is not available...

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,

- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at
fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other
shell metacharacters.
The majority of git svn tests used the idiom
test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo"
These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes:
test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"'
which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is.
One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the
value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no
longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw
* expecting success:
test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo
but now it is:
* expecting success:
test script using "$svnrepo"

Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite
of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests
run a series of commands that leads to the single command that
needs to be tested, like this:
test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
what is to be tested
'
And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the
point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to
succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are
trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to
check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which
is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands.
This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to
use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is
tested, like this:
test_expect_success 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
! this command should fail
'
test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that
that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it
currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a
file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can
write a test like this:
test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' '
rm -f bar &&
git foo &&
test -f bar
'
This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead
of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the
outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

We currently use lower 12-bit (masked with CE_NAMEMASK) in the
ce_flags field to store the length of the name in cache_entry,
without checking the length parameter given to
create_ce_flags(). This can make us store incorrect length.
Currently we are mostly protected by the fact that many
codepaths first copy the path in a variable of size PATH_MAX,
which typically is 4096 that happens to match the limit, but
that feels like a bug waiting to happen. Besides, that would
not allow us to shorten the width of CE_NAMEMASK to use the bits
for new flags.
This redefines the meaning of the name length stored in the
cache_entry. A name that does not fit is represented by storing
CE_NAMEMASK in the field, and the actual length needs to be
computed by actually counting the bytes in the name[] field.
This way, only the unusually long paths need to suffer.

The "bind" commit can express an aggregation of multiple
projects into a single commit.
In such an organization, there would be one project, root of
whose tree object is at the same level of the root of the
aggregated projects, and other projects have their toplevel in
separate subdirectories. Let's call that root level project the
"primary project", and call other ones just "subprojects".
You would first read-tree the primary project, and then graft
the subprojects under their appropriate location using read-tree
--prefix=<subdir>/ repeatedly.
To write out a tree object from such an index for a subproject,
write-tree --prefix=<subdir>/ is used.

This removes the unoptimization. The previous round does not mind
missing fan-out directories, but still makes sure they exist, lest
older versions choke on a repository created/packed by it.
This round does not play that nicely anymore -- empty fan-out
directories are not created by init-db, and will stay removed by
prune-packed. The prune command also removes empty fan-out directories.

This makes it possible to have a "sparse" git object subdirectory
structure, something that has become much more attractive now that people
use pack-files all the time.
As a result of pack-files, a git object directory doesn't necessarily have
any individual objects lying around, and in that case it's just wasting
space to keep the empty first-level object directories around: on many
filesystems the 256 empty directories will be aboue 1MB of diskspace.
Even more importantly, after you re-pack a project that _used_ to be
unpacked, you could be left with huge directories that no longer contain
anything, but that waste space and take time to look through.
With this change, "git prune-packed" can just do an rmdir() on the
directories, and they'll get removed if empty, and re-created on demand.
This patch also tries to fix up "write_sha1_from_fd()" to use the new
common infrastructure for creating the object files, closing a hole where
we might otherwise leave half-written objects in the object database.
[jc: I unoptimized the part that really removes the fan-out directories
to ease transition. init-db still wastes 1MB of diskspace to hold 256
empty fan-outs, and prune-packed rmdir()'s the grown but empty directories,
but runs mkdir() immediately after that -- reducing the saving from 150KB
to 146KB. These parts will be re-introduced when everybody has the
on-demand capability.]

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.

Update the diff-raw format as Linus and I discussed, except that

The new diff-raw format can express rename/copy, and the earlier
restriction that -M and -C _must_ be used with the patch format
output is no longer necessary. The patch makes -M and -C flags
independent of -p flag, so you need to say git-whatchanged -M -p

This introduces the diff-core, the layer between the diff-tree
family and the external diff interface engine. The calls to the
interface diff-tree family uses (diff_change and diff_addremove)
have not changed and will not change. The purpose of the
diff-core layer is to provide an infrastructure to transform the
set of differences sent from the applications, before sending
them to the external diff interface.
The recently introduced rename detection code has been rewritten
to use the diff-core facility. When applications send in
separate creates and deletes, matching ones are transformed into
a single rename-and-edit diff, and sent out to the external diff
interface as such.
This patch also enhances the rename detection code further to be
able to detect copies. Currently this happens only as long as
copy sources appear as part of the modified files, but there
already is enough provision for callers to report unmodified
files to diff-core, so that they can be also used as copy source
candidates. Extending the callers this way will be done in a
separate patch.
Please see and marvel at how well this works by trying out the
newly added t/t4003-diff-rename-1.sh test script.
