Our default_remote_name starts at "origin", but may be
overridden by the config file. In the former case, we
allocate a new string, but in the latter case, we point to
the remote name in an existing "struct branch".
This gives the variable inconsistent free() semantics (we
are sometimes responsible for freeing the string and
sometimes pointing to somebody else's storage), and causes a
small leak when the allocated string is overridden by
config.
We can fix both by simply dropping the extra copy and
pointing to the string literal.

In order to see what the current branch is tracking, one way is using
"git branch -v -v", but branches other than the current are also
reported. Another way is using "git status", such as:
$ git status
# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
...
But this will not work if there is no change between the current
branch and its upstream. Always report upstream tracking info
even if there is no difference, so that "git status" is consistent
for checking tracking info for current branch. E.g.
$ git status
# On branch feature1
# Your branch is up-to-date with 'github/feature1'.
...
$ git status -bs
## feature1...github/feature1
...
$ git checkout feature1
Already on 'feature1'
Your branch is up-to-date with 'github/feature1'.

Command "git branch -vv" will report tracking branches, but invalid
tracking branches are also reported. This is because the function
stat_tracking_info() can not distinguish invalid tracking branch
from other cases which it would not like to report, such as
there is no upstream settings at all, or nothing is changed between
one branch and its upstream.
Junio suggested missing upstream should be reported [1] like:
$ git branch -v -v
master e67ac84 initial
* topic 3fc0f2a [topicbase: gone] topic
$ git status
# On branch topic
# Your branch is based on 'topicbase', but the upstream is gone.
# (use "git branch --unset-upstream" to fixup)
...
$ git status -b -s
## topic...topicbase [gone]
...
In order to do like that, we need to distinguish these three cases
(i.e. no tracking, with configured but no longer valid tracking, and
with tracking) in function stat_tracking_info(). So the refactored
function stat_tracking_info() has three return values: -1 (with "gone"
base), 0 (no base), and 1 (with base).
If the caller does not like to report tracking info when nothing
changed between the branch and its upstream, simply checks if
num_theirs and num_ours are both 0.

This plugs the push_cas_option data collected by the command line
option parser to the transport system with a new function
apply_push_cas(), which is called after match_push_refs() has
already been called.
At this point, we know which remote we are talking to, and what
remote refs we are going to update, so we can fill in the details
that may have been missing from the command line, such as
(1) what abbreviated refname the user gave us matches the actual
refname at the remote; and
(2) which remote-tracking branch in our local repository to read
the value of the object to expect at the remote.
to populate the old_sha1_expect[] field of each of the remote ref.
As stated in the documentation, the use of remote-tracking branch
as the default is a tentative one, and we may come up with a better
logic as we gain experience.
Still nobody uses this information, which is the topic of the next

Update "git push" and "git send-pack" to parse this commnd line
option.
The intended sematics is:
* "--force-with-lease" alone, without specifying the details, will
protect _all_ remote refs that are going to be updated by
requiring their current value to be the same as some reasonable
default, unless otherwise specified;
* "--force-with-lease=refname", without specifying the expected
value, will protect that refname, if it is going to be updated,
by requiring its current value to be the same as some reasonable
default.
* "--force-with-lease=refname:value" will protect that refname, if
it is going to be updated, by requiring its current value to be
the same as the specified value; and
* "--no-force-with-lease" will cancel all the previous --force-with-lease on the
command line.
For now, "some reasonable default" is tentatively defined as "the
value of the remote-tracking branch we have for the ref of the
remote being updated", and it is an error if we do not have such a
remote-tracking branch. But this is known to be fragile, its use is
not yet recommended, and hopefully we will find more reasonable
default as we gain experience with this feature. The manual marks
the feature as experimental unless the expected value is specified
explicitly for this reason.
Because the command line options are parsed _before_ we know which
remote we are pushing to, there needs further processing to the
parsed data after we instantiate the transport object to:
* expand "refname" given by the user to a full refname to be
matched with the list of "struct ref" used in match_push_refs()
and set_ref_status_for_push(); and
* learning the actual local ref that is the remote-tracking branch
for the specified remote ref.
Further, some processing need to be deferred until we find the set
of remote refs and match_push_refs() returns in order to find the
ones that need to be checked after explicit ones have been processed
for "--force-with-lease" (no specific details).
These post-processing will be the topic of the next patch.
This option was originally called "cas" (for "compare and swap"),
the name which nobody liked because it was too technical. The
second attempt called it "lockref" (because it is conceptually like
pushing after taking a lock) but the word "lock" was hated because
it implied that it may reject push by others, which is not the way
this option works. This round calls it "force-with-lease". You
assume you took the lease on the ref when you fetched to decide what
the rebased history should be, and you can push back only if the
lease has not been broken.

Without "git fetch --prune", remote-tracking branches for a branch
the other side already has removed will stay forever. Some people
want to always run "git fetch --prune".
To accommodate users who want to either prune always or when fetching
from a particular remote, add two new configuration variables
"fetch.prune" and "remote.<name>.prune":
- "fetch.prune" allows to enable prune for all fetch operations.
- "remote.<name>.prune" allows to change the behaviour per remote.
The latter will naturally override the former, and the --[no-]prune
option from the command line will override the configured default.
Since --prune is a potentially destructive operation (Git doesn't
keep reflogs for deleted references yet), we don't want to prune
without users consent, so this configuration will not be on by
default.

The definition of "struct ref" in "cache.h", a header file so

about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects.
It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs
the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object
transfer succeeds to what values. It belongs to "remote.h" together
with "struct refspec".

When pushing using a matching refspec or a pattern refspec, each ref
in the local repository must be paired with a ref advertised by the
remote server. This is accomplished by using the refspec to transform
the name of the local ref into the name it should have in the remote
repository, and then performing a linear search through the list of
remote refs to see if the remote ref was advertised by the remote
system.
Each of these lookups has O(n) complexity and makes match_push_refs()
be an O(m*n) operation, where m is the number of local refs and n is
the number of remote refs. If there are many refs 100,000+, then this
ref matching can take a significant amount of time. Let's prepare an
index of the remote refs to allow searching in O(log n) time and
reduce the complexity of match_push_refs() to O(m log n).
We prepare the index lazily so that it is only created when necessary.
So, there should be no impact when _not_ using a matching or pattern
refspec, i.e. when pushing using only explicit refspecs.
Dry-run push of a repository with 121,913 local and remote refs:
before after
real 1m40.582s 0m0.804s
user 1m39.914s 0m0.515s
sys 0m0.125s 0m0.106s
The creation of the index has overhead. So, if there are very few
local refs, then it could take longer to create the index than it
would have taken to just perform n linear lookups into the remote
ref space. Using the index should provide some improvement when
the number of local refs is roughly greater than the log of the
number of remote refs (i.e. m >= log n). The pathological case is
when there is a single local ref and very many remote refs.
Dry-run push of a repository with 121,913 remote refs and a single
local ref:
before after
real 0m0.525s 0m0.566s
user 0m0.243s 0m0.279s
sys 0m0.075s 0m0.099s
Using an index takes 41 ms longer, or roughly 7.8% longer.
Jeff King measured a no-op push of a single ref into a remote repo
with 370,000 refs:
before after
real 0m1.087s 0m1.156s
user 0m1.344s 0m1.412s
sys 0m0.288s 0m0.284s
Using an index takes 69 ms longer, or roughly 6.3% longer.
None of the measurements above required transferring any objects to
the remote repository. If the push required transferring objects and
updating the refs in the remote repository, the impact of preparing
the search index would be even smaller.
A similar operation is performed in the reverse direction when pruning
using a matching or pattern refspec. Let's avoid O(m*n) behavior in
the same way by lazily preparing an index on the local refs.

When we push to update an existing ref, if:
* the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or
* the object we are pushing is not a commit,
it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again,
as the old and new objects will not "merge". We should explain that
the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is
involved in such a case.
If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do
not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be
merged. In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like
non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in
practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work
to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to
update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work
as a suggestion most of the time. And if the object at the tip is
not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent
damage. As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user
will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now
the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved.
In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the
client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the
ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from
there and integrate before pushing again.
Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages

First compute the reason why this push would fail if done without

When pushing to update a branch with a commit that is not a
descendant of the commit at the tip, a wrong message "already
exists" was given, instead of the correct "non-fast-forward", if we
do not have the object sitting in the destination repository at the
tip of the ref we are updating.
The primary cause of the bug is that the check in a new helper
function is_forwardable() assumed both old and new objects are
available and can be checked, which is not always the case.
The way the caller uses the result of this function is also wrong.
If the helper says "we do not want to let this push go through", the
caller unconditionally translates it into "we blocked it because the
destination already exists", which is not true at all in this case.
Fix this by doing these three things:
* Remove unnecessary not_forwardable from "struct ref"; it is only
used inside set_ref_status_for_push();
* Make "refs/tags/" the only hierarchy that cannot be replaced
without --force;
* Remove the misguided attempt to force that everything that
updates an existing ref has to be a commit outside "refs/tags/"
hierarchy.
The policy last one tried to implement may later be resurrected and
extended to ensure fast-forwardness (defined as "not losing
objects", extending from the traditional "not losing commits from
the resulting history") when objects that are not commit are
involved (e.g. an annotated tag in hierarchies outside refs/tags),
but such a logic belongs to "is this a fast-forward?" check that is
done by ref_newer(); is_forwardable(), which is now removed, was not
the right place to do so.

In a repository cloned from somewhere else, you typically have a
symbolic ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD pointing at the 'master'
remote-tracking ref that is next to it. When fetching into such a
repository with "git fetch --mirror" from another repository that
was similarly cloned, the implied wildcard refspec refs/*:refs/*
will end up asking to update refs/remotes/origin/HEAD with the
object at refs/remotes/origin/HEAD at the remote side, while asking
to update refs/remotes/origin/master the same way. Depending on the
order the two updates happen, the latter one would find that the
value of the ref before it is updated has changed from what the code
expects.
When the user asks to update the underlying ref via the symbolic ref
explicitly without using a wildcard refspec, e.g. "git fetch $there
refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/HEAD", we should still let him
do so, but when expanding wildcard refs, it will result in a more
intuitive outcome if we simply ignore local symbolic refs.
As the purpose of the symbolic ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD is to
follow the ref it points at (e.g. refs/remotes/origin/master), its
value would change when the underlying ref is updated.
Earlier commit da3efdb (receive-pack: detect aliased updates which

Pushes must already (by default) update to a commit-ish due to the fast-
forward check in set_ref_status_for_push(). But rejecting for not being
a fast-forward suggests the situation can be resolved with a merge.
Flag these updates (i.e., to a blob or a tree) as not forwardable so the
user is presented with more appropriate advice.
While updating *from* a tag object is potentially destructive, updating
*to* a tag is not. Additionally, a push to the refs/tags/ hierarchy is
already excluded from fast-forwarding, and refs/heads/ is protected from
anything but commit objects by a check in write_ref_sha1(). Thus
someone fast-forwarding to a tag is probably not doing so by accident.

When we try to push a ref and the right-hand side of the
refspec does not find a match, we try to create it. If it is
not fully qualified, we try to guess where it would go in
the refs hierarchy based on the left-hand source side. If
the source side is not a ref, then we give up and give a
long explanatory message.
For deletions, however, this doesn't make any sense. We
would never want to create on the remote side, and if an
unqualified ref can't be matched, it is simply an error. The
current code handles this already because the left-hand side
is empty, and therefore does not give us a hint as to where
the right-hand side should go, and we properly error out.
Unfortunately, the error message is the long "we tried to
qualify this, but the source side didn't let us guess"
message, which is quite confusing.
Instead, we can just be more succinct and say "we can't
delete this because we couldn't find it". So before:
$ git push origin :bogus
error: unable to push to unqualified destination: bogus
The destination refspec neither matches an existing ref on the remote nor
begins with refs/, and we are unable to guess a prefix based on the source ref.
error: failed to push some refs to '$URL'
and now:
$ git push origin :bogus
error: unable to delete 'bogus': remote ref does not exist
error: failed to push some refs to '$URL'
It is tempting to also catch a fully-qualified ref like
"refs/heads/bogus" and generate the same error message.
However, that currently does not error out at all, and
instead gets sent to the remote side, which typically
generates a warning:
$ git push origin:refs/heads/bogus
remote: warning: Deleting a non-existent ref.
To $URL
- [deleted] bogus
While it would be nice to catch this error early, a
client-side error would mean aborting the push entirely and
changing push's exit code. For example, right now you can
do:
$ git push origin refs/heads/foo refs/heads/bar
and end up in a state where "foo" and "bar" are deleted,
whether both of them currently exist or not (and see an
error only if we actually failed to contact the server).
Generating an error would cause a regression for this use
case.

So that we can reuse src later on. No functional changes.
Will be useful in next patches.

Function format_tracking_info in remote.c is called by
wt_status_print_tracking in wt-status.c, which will print
branch tracking message in git-status. git-checkout also
show these messages through it's report_tracking function.

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a shared buffer and can be
overwritten by the next resolve_ref() calls. Callers need to
pay attention, not to keep the pointer when the next call happens.
Rename with "_unsafe" suffix to warn developers (or reviewers) before
introducing new call sites.
This patch is generated using the following command
git grep -l 'resolve_ref(' -- '*.[ch]'|xargs sed -i 's/resolve_ref(/resolve_ref_unsafe(/g'

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not
safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens,
the buffer may be changed. Many call sites though do not care about
this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not.
Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref()
calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on
to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

If the user gave us refspecs on the command line, we should use those
when deciding whether to prune a ref instead of relying on the
refspecs in the config.
Previously, running
git fetch --prune origin refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
would delete every other ref under the origin namespace because we
were using the refspec to filter the available refs but using the
configured refspec to figure out if a ref had been deleted on the
remote. This is clearly the wrong thing to do.
Change prune_refs and get_stale_heads to simply accept a list of
references and a list of refspecs. The caller of either function needs
to decide what refspecs should be used to decide whether a ref is
stale.

Move the body of remote_find_tracking() to a new helper query_refspecs()
that finds a refspec that matches and applies the transformation, but
explicitly takes the list of refspecs, and make remote_find_tracking() a
thin wrapper of it.
Make apply_refspecs() also use query_refspecs().

The "x"-prefixed versions of strdup, malloc, etc. will check whether the
allocation was successful and terminate the process otherwise.
A few uses of malloc were left alone since they already implemented a
graceful path of failure or were in a quasi external library like xdiff.
Additionally, the call to malloc in compat/win32/syslog.c was not modified
since the syslog() implemented there is a die handler and a call to the
x-wrappers within a die handler could result in recursion should memory
allocation fail. This will have to be addressed separately.
