We want to be able to import, and then export, using the same marks, so
that we don't push things that the other side already received.
Unfortunately, fast-export doesn't store blobs in the marks, but
fast-import does. This creates a mismatch when fast export is reusing a
mark that was previously stored by fast-import.
There is no point in one tool saving blobs, and the other not, but for
now let's just check in fast-export that the objects are indeed commits.

Doing a "git rm submod/" on a submodule results in an error:
fatal: pathspec 'submod/' did not match any files
This is really inconvenient as e.g. using TAB completion in a shell on a
submodule automatically adds the trailing '/' when it completes the path
of the submodule directory. The user has then to remove the '/' herself to
make a "git rm" succeed. Doing a "git rm -r somedir/" is working fine, so
there is no reason why that shouldn't work for submodules too.
Teach git rm to not error out when a '/' is appended to the path of a
submodule. Achieve this by chopping off trailing slashes from the path
names given if they represent directories. Add tests to make sure that
logic only applies to directories and not to files.

When given a variable without a value, such as '[section] var' and
asking git-config to treat it as a path, git_config_pathname returns
an error and doesn't modify its output parameter. show_config assumes
that the call is always successful and sets a variable to indicate
that vptr should be freed. In case of an error however, trying to do
this will cause the program to be killed, as it's pointing to memory
in the stack.
Detect the error and return immediately to avoid freeing or accessing

We keep track of whether the user ident was given to us
explicitly, or if we guessed at it from system parameters
like username and hostname. However, we kept only a single
variable. This covers the common cases (because the author
and committer will usually come from the same explicit
source), but can miss two cases:
1. GIT_COMMITTER_* is set explicitly, but we fallback for
GIT_AUTHOR. We claim the ident is explicit, even though
the author is not.
2. GIT_AUTHOR_* is set and we ask for author ident, but
not committer ident. We will claim the ident is
implicit, even though it is explicit.
This patch uses two variables instead of one, updates both
when we set the "fallback" values, and updates them
individually when we read from the environment.
Rather than keep user_ident_sufficiently_given as a
compatibility wrapper, we update the only two callers to
check the committer_ident, which matches their intent and
what was happening already.

The git-config command has always implemented its own file
lookup and parsing order. This was necessary because its
duplicate-entry handling did not match the way git's
internal callbacks worked. Now that this is no longer the
case, we are free to reuse the existing parsing code.
This saves us a few lines of code, but most importantly, it
means that the logic for which files are examined is
contained only in one place and cannot diverge.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
If git-config is asked for a single value, it will complain
and exit with an error if it finds multiple instances of
that value. This is unlike the usual internal config
parsing, however, which will generally overwrite previous
values, leaving only the final one. For example:
[set a multivar]
$ git config user.email one@example.com
$ git config --add user.email two@example.com
[use the internal parser to fetch it]
$ git var GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT
Your Name <two@example.com> ...
[use git-config to fetch it]
$ git config user.email
one@example.com
error: More than one value for the key user.email: two@example.com
This overwriting behavior is critical for the regular
parser, which starts with the lowest-priority file (e.g.,
/etc/gitconfig) and proceeds to the highest-priority file
($GIT_DIR/config). Overwriting yields the highest priority
value at the end.
Git-config solves this problem by implementing its own
parsing. It goes from highest to lowest priorty, but does
not proceed to the next file if it has seen a value.
So in practice, this distinction never mattered much,
because it only triggered for values in the same file. And
there was not much point in doing that; the real value is in
overwriting values from lower-priority files.
However, this changed with the implementation of config
include files. Now we might see an include overriding a
value from the parent file, which is a sensible thing to do,
but git-config will flag as a duplication.
This patch drops the duplicate detection for git-config and
switches to a pure-overwrite model (for the single case;
--get-all can still be used if callers want to do something
more fancy).
As is shown by the modifications to the test suite, this is
a user-visible change in behavior. An alternative would be
to just change the include case, but this is much cleaner
for a few reasons:
1. If you change the include case, then to what? If you
just stop parsing includes after getting a value, then
you will get a _different_ answer than the regular
config parser (you'll get the first value instead of
the last value). So you'd want to implement overwrite
semantics anyway.
2. Even though it is a change in behavior for git-config,
it is bringing us in line with what the internal
parsers already do.
3. The file-order reimplementation is the only thing
keeping us from sharing more code with the internal
config parser, which will help keep differences to a
minimum.
Going under the assumption that the primary purpose of
git-config is to behave identically to how git's internal
parsing works, this change can be seen as a bug-fix.

This is a refactor that will allow us to more easily tweak
the behavior for multi-valued variables, and it will
ultimately allow us to remove a lot git-config's custom code
in favor of the regular git_config code.
It does mean we're no longer streaming, and we're storing
more in memory for the --get-all case, but in practice it is
a tiny amount of data, and the results are instantaneous.

half-constructed state (we would want to free it, but not
regfree it).
Similarly, we fix git_config_parse_key to return NULL when
it fails, not a pointer to some already-freed memory.

You can currently set the output format to --short or
--porcelain. There is no --long, because we default to it
already. However, you may want to override an alias that
uses "--short" to get back to the default.
This requires a little bit of refactoring, because currently
we use STATUS_FORMAT_LONG internally to mean the same as
"the user did not specify anything". By expanding the enum
to include STATUS_FORMAT_NONE, we can distinguish between
the implicit and explicit cases. This effects these
conditions:
1. The user has asked for NUL termination. With NONE, we
currently default to turning on the porcelain mode.
With an explicit --long, we would in theory use NUL
termination with the long mode, but it does not support
it. So we can just complain and die.
2. When an output format is given to "git commit", we
default to "--dry-run". This behavior would now kick in
when "--long" is given, too.

Before a branch is deleted, we check that it points to a valid
commit. With -d we also check that the commit is a merged; this
check is not done with -D.
The reason for that is that commits pointed to by branches should
never go missing; if they do then something broke and it's better
to stop instead of adding to the mess. And a non-merged commit
may contain changes that are worth preserving, so we require the
stronger option -D instead of -d to get rid of them.
If a branch consists of a symref, these concerns don't apply.
Deleting such a branch can't make a commit become unreferenced,
so we don't need to check if it is merged, or even if it is
actually a valid commit. Skip them in that case. This allows
us to delete dangling symref branches.

The grep_config() function takes one instance of grep_opt as its
callback parameter, and populates it by running git_config().
This has three practical implications:
- You have to have an instance of grep_opt already when you call
the configuration, but that is not necessarily always true. You
may be trying to initialize the grep_filter member of rev_info,
but are not ready to call init_revisions() on it yet.
- It is not easy to enhance grep_config() in such a way to make it
cascade to other callback functions to grab other variables in
one call of git_config(); grep_config() can be cascaded into from
other callbacks, but it has to be at the leaf level of a cascade.
- If you ever need to use more than one instance of grep_opt, you
will have to open and read the configuration file(s) every time
you initialize them.
Rearrange the configuration mechanism and model it after how diff
configuration variables are handled. An early call to git_config()
reads and remembers the values taken from the configuration in the
default "template", and a separate call to grep_init() uses this
template to instantiate a grep_opt.
The next step will be to move some of this out of this file so that
the other user of the grep machinery (i.e. "log") can use it.

The idea of the peel_ref function is to dereference tag
objects recursively until we hit a non-tag, and return the
sha1. Conceptually, it should return 0 if it is successful
(and fill in the sha1), or -1 if there was nothing to peel.
However, the current behavior is much more confusing. For a
regular loose ref, the behavior is as described above. But
there is an optimization to reuse the peeled-ref value for a
ref that came from a packed-refs file. If we have such a
ref, we return its peeled value, even if that peeled value
is null (indicating that we know the ref definitely does
_not_ peel).
It might seem like such information is useful to the caller,
who would then know not to bother loading and trying to peel
the object. Except that they should not bother loading and
trying to peel the object _anyway_, because that fallback is
already handled by peel_ref. In other words, the whole point
of calling this function is that it handles those details
internally, and you either get a sha1, or you know that it
is not peel-able.
This patch catches the null sha1 case internally and
converts it into a -1 return value (i.e., there is nothing
to peel). This simplifies callers, which do not need to
bother checking themselves.
Two callers are worth noting:
- in pack-objects, a comment indicates that there is a
difference between non-peelable tags and unannotated
tags. But that is not the case (before or after this
patch). Whether you get a null sha1 has to do with
internal details of how peel_ref operated.
- in show-ref, if peel_ref returns a failure, the caller
tries to decide whether to try peeling manually based on
whether the REF_ISPACKED flag is set. But this doesn't
make any sense. If the flag is set, that does not
necessarily mean the ref came from a packed-refs file
with the "peeled" extension. But it doesn't matter,
because even if it didn't, there's no point in trying to
peel it ourselves, as peel_ref would already have done
so. In other words, the fallback peeling is guaranteed
to fail.

Currently "git am" does insane things if the mbox it is given contains
attachments with a MIME type that aren't "text/*".
In particular, it will still decode them, and pass them "one line at a
time" to the mail body filter, but because it has determined that they
aren't text (without actually looking at the contents, just at the mime
type) the "line" will be the encoding line (eg 'base64') rather than a
line of *content*.
Which then will cause the text filtering to fail, because we won't
correctly notice when the attachment text switches from the commit message
to the actual patch. Resulting in a patch failure, even if patch may be a
perfectly well-formed attachment, it's just that the message type may be
(for example) "application/octet-stream" instead of "text/plain".
Just remove all the bogus games with the message_type. The only difference
that code creates is how the data is passed to the filter function
(chunked per-pred-code line or per post-decode line), and that difference
is *wrong*, since chunking things per pre-decode line can never be a
sensible operation, and cannot possibly matter for binary data anyway.
This code goes all the way back to March of 2007, in commit 87ab799234
("builtin-mailinfo.c infrastrcture changes"), and apparently Don used to
pass random mbox contents to git. However, the pre-decode vs post-decode
logic really shouldn't matter even for that case, and more importantly, "I
fed git am crap" is not a valid reason to break *real* patch attachments.
If somebody really cares, and determines that some attachment is binary
data (by looking at the data, not the MIME-type), the whole attachment
should be dismissed, rather than fed in random-sized chunks to
"handle_filter()".

Currently using "git rm" on a submodule - populated or not - fails with
this error:
fatal: git rm: '<submodule path>': Is a directory
This made sense in the past as there was no way to remove a submodule
without possibly removing unpushed parts of the submodule's history
contained in its .git directory too, so erroring out here protected the
user from possible loss of data.
But submodules cloned with a recent git version do not contain the .git
directory anymore, they use a gitfile to point to their git directory
which is safely stored inside the superproject's .git directory. The work
tree of these submodules can safely be removed without losing history, so
let's teach git to do so.
Using rm on an unpopulated submodule now removes the empty directory from
the work tree and the gitlink from the index. If the submodule's directory
is missing from the work tree, it will still be removed from the index.
Using rm on a populated submodule using a gitfile will apply the usual
checks for work tree modification adapted to submodules (unless forced).
For a submodule that means that the HEAD is the same as recorded in the
index, no tracked files are modified and no untracked files that aren't
ignored are present in the submodules work tree (ignored files are deemed
expendable and won't stop a submodule's work tree from being removed).
That logic has to be applied in all nested submodules too.
Using rm on a submodule which has its .git directory inside the work trees
top level directory will just error out like it did before to protect the
repository, even when forced. In the future git could either provide a
message informing the user to convert the submodule to use a gitfile or
even attempt to do the conversion itself, but that is not part of this
change.

they are included in that group, or were simply forgotten.
However, there are a few good reasons to show them to the
client:
1. In many cases, they are directly about the incoming
packfile (e.g., fsck warnings with --strict, corruption
in the packfile, etc). Without these messages, the
client just gets "unpacker error" with no extra useful
diagnosis.
2. No matter what the cause, we are probably better off
showing the errors to the client. If the client and the
server admin are not the same entity, it is probably
much easier for the client to cut-and-paste the errors
they see than for the admin to try to dig them out of a
log and correlate them with a particular session.
3. Users of the ssh transport typically already see these
stderr messages, as the remote's stderr is copied
literally by ssh. This brings other transports (http,
and push-over-git if you are crazy enough to enable it)
more in line with ssh. As a bonus for ssh users,
because the messages are now fed through the sideband
and printed by the local git, they will have "remote:"
prepended and be properly interleaved with any local
output to stderr.

The unpack-objects command should not generally produce any
output on stdout. However, if it's given extra input after
the packfile, it will spew the remainder to stdout. When
called by receive-pack, this means we will break protocol,
since our stdout is connected to the remote send-pack.

After running "git clone --single", the resulting repository has the
usual default "+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*" wildcard fetch
refspec installed, which means that a subsequent "git fetch" will
end up grabbing all the other branches.
Update the fetch refspec to cover only the singly cloned ref instead
to correct this.
That means:
If "--single" is used without "--branch" or "--mirror", the
fetch refspec covers the branch on which remote's HEAD points to.
If "--single" is used with "--branch", it'll cover only the branch
specified in the "--branch" option.
If "--single" is combined with "--mirror", then it'll cover all
refs of the cloned repository.
If "--single" is used with "--branch" that specifies a tag, then
it'll cover only the ref for this tag.

"Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8" header should not appear
twice in the input, but it is always better to gracefully deal with
such a case. The current code concatenates the value to the values
we have seen previously, producing nonsense such as "utf8UTF-8".
Instead of concatenating, forget the previous value and use the last
value we see.

fetch does printf("%-*s", width, "foo") where "foo" can be a utf-8
string, but width is in bytes, not columns. For ASCII it's fine as one
byte takes one column. For utf-8, this may result in misaligned ref
summary table.
Introduce gettext_width() function that returns the string length in
columns (currently only supports utf-8 locales). Make the code use
TRANSPORT_SUMMARY(x) where the length is compensated properly in
non-English locales.
