git blame --textconv is wrongly calling the textconv filter on
symlinks: symlinks are stored as blobs whose content is the target of
the link, and blame calls the textconv filter on a temporary file
filled-in with the content of this blob.
For example:
$ git blame -C -C regular-file.pdf
Error: May not be a PDF file (continuing anyway)
Error: PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table...
Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary
Error: Couldn't read xref table
Warning: program returned non-zero exit code #1
fatal: unable to read files to diff
That errors come from pdftotext run on symlink.pdf being extracted to
/tmp/ with one-line plain-text content pointing to link destination.
So several failures are demonstrated here:
- git cat-file --textconv :symlink.bin # also HEAD:symlink.bin
- git blame --textconv symlink.bin
- git blame -C -C --textconv regular-file # but also looks on symlink.bin
At present they all fail with something like.
E: /tmp/j3ELEs_symlink.bin is not "binary" file
NOTE: git diff doesn't try to textconv the pathnames, it runs the
textual diff without textconv, which is the expected behavior.

The textconv filter is sometimes incorrectly ran on a temporary file
whose content is the target of a symbolic link, instead of actual file
content. Prepare to test this by marking the content of the file to
convert with "bin:", and let the helper die if "bin:" is not found in
the file content.
NOTE: I've changed $@ to $1 in helper becase textconv program "should
take a single argument" (see Documentation/gitattributes.txt), so
making this more explicit makes sense and also helps to avoid
problems with feeding arguments to echo.

In 479b56ba ('make "repack -f" imply "pack-objects --no-reuse-object"'),
git repack -f was changed to include recompressing all objects on the
zlib level on the assumption that if the user wants to spend that much
time already, some more time won't hurt (and recompressing is useful if
the user changed the zlib compression level).
However, "some more time" can be quite long with very big repositories,
so some users are going to appreciate being able to choose. If we are
going to give them the choice, --no-reuse-object will probably be
interesting a lot less frequently than --no-reuse-delta. Hence, this
reverts -f to the old behaviour (--no-reuse-delta) and adds a new -F
option that replaces the current -f.
Measurements taken using this patch on a current clone of git.git
indicate a 17% decrease in time being made available to users:
git repack -Adf 34.84s user 0.56s system 145% cpu 24.388 total

Change the Perl scripts to turn on lexical warnings instead of setting
the global $^W variable via the -w switch.
The -w sets warnings for all code that interpreter runs, while "use
warnings" is lexically scoped. The former is probably not what the
authors wanted.
As an auxiliary benefit it's now possible to build Git with:
PERL_PATH='/usr/bin/env perl'

Formalize our dependency on perl 5.8, bumped from 5.6.[12]. We already
used the three-arg form of open() which was introduced in 5.6.1, but
t/t9700/test.pl explicitly depended on 5.6.2.
However git-add--interactive.pl has been failing on the 5.6 line since
it was introduced in v1.5.0-rc0~12^2~2 back in 2006 due to this open
syntax:
sub run_cmd_pipe {
my $fh = undef;
open($fh, '-|', @_) or die;
return <$fh>;
}
Which when executed dies on "Can't use an undefined value as
filehandle reference". Several of our tests also fail on 5.6 (even
more when compiled with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=1):
t2016-checkout-patch.sh
t3904-stash-patch.sh
t3701-add-interactive.sh
t7105-reset-patch.sh
t7501-commit.sh
t9700-perl-git.sh
Our code is bitrotting on 5.6 with no-one interested in fixing it, and
pinning us to such an ancient release of Perl is keeping us from using
useful features introduced in the 5.8 release.
The 5.6 series is now over 10 years old, and the 5.6.2 maintenance
release almost 7. 5.8 on the other hand is more than 8 years old.
All the modern Unix-like operating systems have now upgraded to it or
a later version, and 5.8 packages are available for old IRIX, AIX
Solaris and Tru64 systems.

For a long time (29508e1 "Isolate shared HTTP request functionality", Fri
Nov 18 11:02:58 2005), we've followed HTTP redirects with
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION.
However, when the remote HTTP server returns a redirect the default
libcurl action is to change a POST request into a GET request while
following the redirect, but the remote http backend does not expect
that.
Fix this by telling libcurl to always keep the request as type POST with
CURLOPT_POSTREDIR.
For users of libcurl older than 7.19.1, use CURLOPT_POST301 instead,
which only follows 301s instead of both 301s and 302s.

When we're diffing symlinks, we consider the contents to be
the pathname that the symlink points to. When a user sets up
a userdiff driver like "*.pdf diff=pdf", their "diff.pdf.*"
config generally tells us what to do with the content of
pdf files.
With the current code, we will actually process a symlink
like "link.pdf" using a configured pdf driver, meaning we
are using contents which consist of a pathname with
configuration that is expecting contents that consist of an
actual pdf file.
The most noticeable example of this would have been
textconv; however, it was already protected in its own
textconv-specific code path. We can still see the breakage
with something like "diff.*.binary", though. You could
also see it with diff.*.funcname, though it is a bit harder
to trigger accidentally there.
This patch adds a check for S_ISREG lower in the callstack
than the textconv-specific check, which should block use of
any userdiff config for non-regular files. We can drop the
check in the textconv code, which is now redundant.
