Instead of hard-coding the offset strlen("refs/heads/") to skip
the prefix "refs/heads/" use the skip_prefix() function which
is more communicative and verifies that the string actually
starts with that prefix.

When a user tries to rename a branch that has a "bad name" (e.g.,
starts with a '-') then we warn them that the misnamed branch has
been renamed "away". A similar message is shown when trying to create
a copy of a misnamed branch even though it doesn't remove the misnamed
branch. This is not correct and may confuse the user.
So, update the warning message shown to be more precise that only a copy
of the misnamed branch has been created. It's better to show the warning
message than not showing it at all as it makes the user aware of the
presence of a misnamed branch.

Similar to de121ffe5 (tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only,
2017-08-02), use the DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG-mechanism to only respect
`pager.branch` when we are listing branches.
We have two possibilities of generalizing what that earlier commit made
to `git tag`. One is to interpret, e.g., --set-upstream-to as "it does
not use an editor, so we should page". Another, the one taken by this
commit, is to say "it does not list, so let's not page". That is in line
with the approach of the series on `pager.tag` and in particular the
wording in Documentation/git-tag.txt, which this commit reuses for
git-branch.txt.
This fixes the failing test added in the previous commit. Also adapt the

This reverts commit 136c8c8b8f.
That commit was trying to address a bug caused by 4c7f1819b3
(make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), in which
plumbing like diff-tree defaulted to "auto" color, but did
not respect a "color.ui" directive to disable it.
But it also meant that we started respecting "color.ui" set
to "always". This was a known problem, but 4c7f1819b3 argued
that nobody ought to be doing that. However, that turned out
to be wrong, and we got a number of bug reports related to
"add -p" regressing in v2.14.2.
Let's revert 136c8c8b8, fixing the regression to "add -p".
This leaves the problem from 4c7f1819b3 unfixed, but:
1. It's a pretty obscure problem in the first place. I
only noticed it while working on the color code, and we
haven't got a single bug report or complaint about it.
2. We can make a more moderate fix on top by respecting
"never" but not "always" for plumbing commands. This
is just the minimal fix to go back to the working state
we had before v2.14.2.
Note that this isn't a pure revert. We now have a test in
t3701 which shows off the "add -p" regression. This can be
flipped to success.

When creating a new branch B by copying the branch A that happens to
be the current branch, it also updates HEAD to point at the new
branch. It probably was made this way because "git branch -c A B"
piggybacked its implementation on "git branch -m A B",
This does not match the usual expectation. If I were sitting on a
blue chair, and somebody comes and repaints it to red, I would
accept ending up sitting on a chair that is now red (I am also OK to
stand, instead, as there no longer is my favourite blue chair). But
if somebody creates a new red chair, modelling it after the blue
chair I am sitting on, I do not expect to be booted off of the blue
chair and ending up on sitting on the new red one.
Let's fix this before it hits 'next'. Those who want to create a
new branch and switch to it can do "git checkout B" after doing a
"git branch -c B", and if that operation is so useful and deserves a
short-hand way to do so, perhaps extend "git checkout -b B" to copy
configurations while creating the new branch B.

When color placeholders like %(color:red) are used in a
ref-filter format, we unconditionally output the colors,
even if the user has asked us for no colors. This usually
isn't a problem when the user is constructing a --format on
the command line, but it means we may do the wrong thing
when the format is fed from a script or alias. For example:
$ git config alias.b 'branch --format=%(color:green)%(refname)'
$ git b --no-color
should probably omit the green color. Likewise, running:
$ git b >branches
should probably also omit the color, just as we would for
all baked-in coloring (and as we recently started to do for
user-specified colors in --pretty formats).
This commit makes both of those cases work by teaching
the ref-filter code to consult want_color() before
outputting any color. The color flag in ref_format defaults
to "-1", which means we'll consult color.ui, which in turn
defaults to the usual isatty() check on stdout. However,
callers like git-branch which support their own color config
(and command-line options) can override that.
The new tests independently cover all three of the callers
of ref-filter (for-each-ref, tag, and branch). Even though
these seem redundant, it confirms that we've correctly
plumbed through all of the necessary config to make colors
work by default.

Back in prehistoric times, our decision on whether or not to
show color by default relied on using a config callback that
either did or didn't load color config like color.diff.
When we introduced color.ui, we put it in the same boat:
commands had to manually respect it by using git_color_config()
or its git_color_default_config() convenience wrapper.
But in 4c7f1819b (make color.ui default to 'auto',
2013-06-10), that changed. Since then, we default color.ui
to auto in all programs, meaning that even plumbing commands
like "git diff-tree --pretty" might colorize the output.
Nobody seems to have complained in the intervening years,
presumably because the "is stdout a tty" check does a good
job of catching the right cases.
But that leaves an interesting curiosity: color.ui defaults
to auto even in plumbing, but you can't actually _disable_
the color via config. So if you really hate color and set
"color.ui" to false, diff-tree will still show color (but
porcelain like git-diff won't). Nobody noticed that either,
probably because very few people disable color.
One could argue that the plumbing should _always_ disable
color unless an explicit --color option is given on the
command line. But in practice, this creates a lot of
complications for scripts which do want plumbing to show
user-visible output. They can't just pass "--color" blindly;
they need to check the user's config and decide what to
send.
Given that nobody has complained about the current behavior,
let's assume it's a good path, and follow it to its
conclusion: supporting color.ui everywhere.
Note that you can create havoc by setting color.ui=always in
your config, but that's more or less already the case. We
could disallow it entirely, but it is handy for one-offs
like:
git -c color.ui=always foo >not-a-tty
when "foo" does not take a --color option itself.

The ref-filter module provides routines for formatting a ref
for output. The fundamental interface for the format is a
"const char *" containing the format, and any additional
options need to be passed to each invocation of
show_ref_array_item.
Instead, let's make a ref_format struct that holds the
format, along with any associated format options. That will
make some enhancements easier in the future:
1. new formatting options can be added without disrupting
existing callers
2. some state can be carried in the struct rather than as
global variables
For now this just has the text format itself along with the

Users of the ref-filter code must call verify_ref_format()
before formatting any refs, but most ignore its return
value. This means we may print an error on a syntactically
bogus pattern, but keep going anyway.
In most cases this results in a fatal error when we actually
try to format a ref. But if you have no refs to show at all,
then the behavior is confusing: git prints the error from
verify_ref_format(), then exits with code 0 without showing
any output. Let's instead abort immediately if we know we
have a bogus format.
We'll output the usage information if we have it handy (just
like the existing call in cmd_for_each_ref() does), and
otherwise just die().

Since 949af0684 (branch: use ref-filter printing APIs,

custom format to the ref-filter code. This format forgot to
pass BRANCH_COLOR_LOCAL, meaning that local branches
(besides the current one) were never colored at all.
We can add it in the %(if) block where we decide whether the
branch is "current" or merely "local". Note that this means
the current/local coloring is either/or. You can't set:
[color "branch"]
local = blue
current = bold
and expect the current branch to be "bold blue". This

When assembling the ref-filter format to show "git branch"
output, we put the "%(if)%(HEAD)" conditional at the start
of the overall format. But there's no point in checking
whether a remote branch matches HEAD, as it never will.
The check should go inside the local conditional; we
assemble that format inside the "local" strbuf.

Add the ability to --copy a branch and its reflog and configuration,
this uses the same underlying machinery as the --move (-m) option
except the reflog and configuration is copied instead of being moved.
This is useful for e.g. copying a topic branch to a new version,
e.g. work to work-2 after submitting the work topic to the list, while
preserving all the tracking info and other configuration that goes
with the branch, and unlike --move keeping the other already-submitted
branch around for reference.
Like --move, when the source branch is the currently checked out
branch the HEAD is moved to the destination branch. In the case of
--move we don't really have a choice (other than remaining on a
detached HEAD) and in order to keep the functionality consistent, we
are doing it in similar way for --copy too.
The most common usage of this feature is expected to be moving to a
new topic branch which is a copy of the current one, in that case
moving to the target branch is what the user wants, and doesn't
unexpectedly behave differently than --move would.
One outstanding caveat of this implementation is that:
git checkout maint &&
git checkout master &&
git branch -c topic &&
git checkout -
Will check out 'maint' instead of 'master'. This is because the @{-N}
feature (or its -1 shorthand "-") relies on HEAD reflogs created by
the checkout command, so in this case we'll checkout maint instead of
master, as the user might expect. What to do about that is left to a
future change.

Change the tag, branch & for-each-ref commands to have a --no-contains
option in addition to their longstanding --contains options.
This allows for finding the last-good rollout tag given a known-bad
<commit>. Given a hypothetically bad commit cf5c7253e0, the git
version to revert to can be found with this hacky two-liner:
(git tag -l 'v[0-9]*'; git tag -l --contains cf5c7253e0 'v[0-9]*') |
sort | uniq -c | grep -E '^ *1 ' | awk '{print $2}' | tail -n 10
With this new --no-contains option the same can be achieved with:
git tag -l --no-contains cf5c7253e0 'v[0-9]*' | sort | tail -n 10
As the filtering machinery is shared between the tag, branch &
for-each-ref commands, implement this for those commands too. A
practical use for this with "branch" is e.g. finding branches which
were branched off between v2.8.0 and v2.10.0:
git branch --contains v2.8.0 --no-contains v2.10.0
The "describe" command also has a --contains option, but its semantics
are unrelated to what tag/branch/for-each-ref use --contains for. A
--no-contains option for "describe" wouldn't make any sense, other
than being exactly equivalent to not supplying --contains at all,
which would be confusing at best.
Add a --without option to "tag" as an alias for --no-contains, for
consistency with --with and --contains. The --with option is
undocumented, and possibly the only user of it is
Junio (<xmqqefy71iej.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com>). But it's
trivial to support, so let's do that.
The additions to the the test suite are inverse copies of the
corresponding --contains tests. With this change --no-contains for
tag, branch & for-each-ref is just as well tested as the existing
--contains option.
In addition to those tests, add a test for "tag" which asserts that
--no-contains won't find tree/blob tags, which is slightly
unintuitive, but consistent with how --contains works & is documented.

The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like
@{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref
names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the
refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and
"@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/").
This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily
interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where
it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a
branch name in refs/heads/. When we expand to a ref outside
that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git
branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is
nonsense).
Callers can't know from the returned string how the
expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a
branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One
fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the
types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that
the caller can generate precise error messages ("I
understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a
remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local
name").
However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat
cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller
tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in,
and none of the callers give more precise error messages
than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which
should be sufficient).
The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter,
as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name()
through it.
We can break the callers down into two groups:
1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the
result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work
without restrictions. This includes merge_name(),
the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(),
and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers
dwim_ref().
2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in
git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of
the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this
patch, and will address them individually in follow-on
patches.

Renaming the current branch adds an event to the current branch's log
and to HEAD's log. However, the logged entries differ. The entry in
the branch's log represents the entire renaming operation (the old and
new hash are identical), whereas the entry in HEAD's log represents
the deletion only (the new sha1 is null).
Extend replace_each_worktree_head_symref(), whose only caller is
branch_rename(), to take a reflog message argument. This allows the
creation of the new ref to be recorded in HEAD's log. As a result,
the renaming event is represented by two entries (a deletion and a
creation entry) in HEAD's log.
It's a bit unfortunate that the branch's log and HEAD's log now
represent the renaming event in different ways. Given that the
renaming operation is not atomic, the two-entry form is a more
accurate representation of the operation and is more useful for
debugging purposes if a failure occurs between the deletion and
creation events. It would make sense to move the branch's log to the
two-entry form, but this would involve changes to how the rename is
carried out and to how the update flags and reflogs are processed for
deletions, so it may not be worth the effort.

Note that this is relevant for HEAD's log but not for the deleted

is set. In contrast, the update for HEAD has REF_LOG_ONLY set by
split_head_update(), resulting in the deletion being logged.

Implement the '--format' option provided by 'ref-filter'. This lets the
user list branches as per desired format similar to the implementation
in 'git for-each-ref'.
Add tests and documentation for the same.

Port branch.c to use ref-filter APIs for printing. This clears out
most of the code used in branch.c for printing and replaces them with
calls made to the ref-filter library.
Introduce build_format() which gets the format required for printing
of refs. Make amendments to print_ref_list() to reflect these changes.
The strings included in build_format() may not be safely quoted for
inclusion (i.e. it might contain '%' which needs to be escaped with an
additional '%'). Introduce quote_literal_for_format() as a helper
function which takes a string and returns a version of the string that
is safely quoted to be used in the for-each-ref format which is built
in build_format().
Change calc_maxwidth() to also account for the length of HEAD ref, by
calling ref-filter:get_head_discription().
Also change the test in t6040 to reflect the changes.
Before this patch, all cross-prefix symrefs weren't shortened. Since
we're using ref-filter APIs, we shorten all symrefs by default. We also
allow the user to change the format if needed with the introduction of
the '--format' option in the next patch.

Call ref-filter's setup_ref_filter_porcelain_msg() to enable
translated messages for the %(upstream:tack) atom. Although branch.c
doesn't currently use ref-filter's printing API's, this will ensure
that when it does in the future patches, we do not need to worry about
translation.

Move the implementation of get_head_description() from branch.c to
ref-filter. This gives a description of the HEAD ref if called. This
is used as the refname for the HEAD ref whenever the
FILTER_REFS_DETACHED_HEAD option is used. Make it public because we
need it to calculate the length of the HEAD refs description in
branch.c:calc_maxwidth() when we port branch.c to use ref-filter
APIs.

This options makes sorting ignore case, which is great when you have
branches named bug-12-do-something, Bug-12-do-some-more and
BUG-12-do-what and want to group them together. Sorting externally may
not be an option because we lose coloring and column layout from
git-branch and git-tag.
The same could be said for filtering, but it's probably less important
because you can always go with the ugly pattern [bB][uU][gG]-* if you're
desperate.
You can't have case-sensitive filtering and case-insensitive sorting (or
the other way around) with this though. For branch and tag, that should
be no problem. for-each-ref, as a plumbing, might want finer control.
But we can always add --{filter,sort}-ignore-case when there is a need
for it.

This function used to have the caller pass in the current
value of HEAD, in order to make sure we didn't clobber HEAD.
In 55c4a6730, that logic moved to validate_new_branchname(),
which just resolves HEAD itself. The parameter to
create_branch is now unused.
Since we have to update and re-wrap the docstring describing
the parameters anyway, let's take this opportunity to break
it out into a list, which makes it easier to find the
parameters.

If we already have a strbuf, then using write_file_buf is a
little nicer to read (no wondering whether "%s" will eat
your NULs), and it's more efficient (no extra formatting
step).
We don't care about the newline magic of write_file(), as we
have our own multi-line content.

We use write_file_gently() to do this job currently.
However, if we see an error, we simply complain via
error_errno() and then end up exiting with an error code.
By switching to the non-gentle form, the function will die
for us, with a better error. It is more specific about which
syscall caused the error, and that mentions the
actual filename we're trying to write.
Our exit code for the error case does switch from "1" to
"128", but that's OK; it wasn't a meaningful documented code
(and in fact it was odd that it was a different exit code
than most other error conditions).

The branch name in that case could be saved in rebase's head_name or
bisect's BISECT_START files. Ideally we should try to update them as
well. But it's trickier (*). Let's play safe and see if the user
complains about inconveniences before doing that.
(*) If we do it, bisect and rebase need to provide an API to rename
branches. We can't do it in worktree.c or builtin/branch.c because
when other people change rebase/bisect code, they may not be aware of
this code and accidentally break it (e.g. rename the branch file, or
refer to the branch in new files). It's a lot more work.

This gives the caller more information and they can answer things like,
"is it the main worktree" or "is it the current worktree". The latter
question is needed for the "checkout a rebase branch" case later.
