Earlier, to countermand the implicit "-m" option when the
"--first-parent" option is used with "git log", we added the
"--[no-]diff-merges" option in the jk/log-fp-implies-m topic. To
leave the door open to allow the "--diff-merges" option to take
values that instructs how patches for merge commits should be
computed (e.g. "cc"? "-p against first parent?"), redefine
"--diff-merges" to take non-optional value, and implement "off"
that means the same thing as "--no-diff-merges".

t6425 was very picky about the exact output message produced by a
rename/delete conflict, in a way that just scratches the surface of the
mess that was built into merge-recursive. The idea was that it would
try to find the possible combinations of different conflict types, and
when more than one was present for one path, it would try to provide a
combined message that covered all the cases.
There's a lot to unravel here...
First, there's a basic conflict type known as modify/delete, which is a
content conflict. It occurs when one side deletes a file, but the other
modifies it.
There is also a path conflict known as a rename/delete. This occurs
when one side deletes a path, and the other renames it. This is not a
content conflict, it is a path conflict. It will often occur in
combination with a content conflict, though, namely a modify/delete. As
such, these two were often combined.
Another type of conflict that can exist is a directory/file conflict.
For example, one side adds a new file at some path, and the other side
of history adds a directory at the same path. The path that was "added"
could have been put there by a rename, though. Thus, we have the
possibility of a single path being affected by a modify/delete, a
rename/delete, and a directory/file conflict.
In part, this was a natural by-product of merge-recursive's design.
Since it was doing a four way merge with the contents of the working
tree being the fourth factor it had to consider, it had working tree
handling spread all over the code. It also had directory/file conflict
handling spread everywhere through all the other types of conflicts.
And our testsuite has a huge number of directory/file conflict tests
because trying to get them right required modifying so many different
codepaths. A natural outgrowth of this kind of structure is conflict
messages that combine all the different types that the current codepath
is considering.
However, if we want to make the different conflict types orthogonal and
avoid repeating ourselves and getting very brittle code, then we need to
split the messages from these different conflict types apart. Besides,
trying to determine all possible permutations is a _royal_ mess. The
code to handle the rename/delete/directory/file conflict output is
already somewhat hard to parse, and is somewhat brittle. But if we
really wanted to go that route, then we'd have to have special handling
for the following types of combinations:
* rename/add/delete:
on side of history that didn't rename the given file, remove the file
instead and place an unrelated file in the way of the rename
* rename/rename(2to1)/mode conflict/delete/delete:
two different files, one executable and the other not, are renamed
to the same location, each side deletes the source file that the
other side renames
* rename/rename(1to2)/add/add:
file renamed differently on each side of history, with each side
placing an unrelated file in the way of the other
* rename/rename(1to2)/content conflict/file location/(D/F)/(D/F)/:
both sides modify a file in conflicting way, both rename that file
but to different paths, one side renames the directory which the
other side had renamed that file into causing it to possibly need a
transitive rename, and each side puts a directory in the way of the
other's path.
Let's back away from this path of insanity, and allow the different
types of conflicts to be handled by separate pieces of non-repeated code
by allowing the conflict messages to be split into their separate types.
(If multiple conflict types affect a single path, the conflict messages
can be printed sequentially.) Start this path with a simple change:
modify this test to be more flexible and accept the output either merge
backend (recursive or the new ort) will produce.

Much like the last commit accepted 'add/add' and 'rename/add'
interchangably, we also want to do the same for 'add/add' and
'rename/rename'. This also allows us to avoid the ambiguity in meaning
with 'rename/rename' (is it two separate files renamed to the same
location, or one file renamed on both sides but differently)?

merge-recursive treats an add/add conflict where one of the adds came
from a rename as a separate 'rename/add' type of conflict. However, if
there is not content conflict after the content merge(s), then the file
is not considered to be conflicted. That suggests the conflict type is
really just add/add. Other merge engines might choose to print messages
to the console that just refer to these as add/add conflicts; accept
both types of output.
Note: it could help to notify users if the three-way content merge of
the rename had content conflicts, because when we then go to two-way
merge THAT with the conflicting add we can get nested conflict markers.
merge-recursive, unfortunately, doesn't do that, but other merge engines
could.

This test had multiple issues causing it to fail for the wrong
reason(s):
* rename/rename(1to2) conflicts have always left the original source
path present in the working directory and index (at stage 1). Thus,
the triple rename/rename(1to2) should result in 9 unstaged files,
not 6.
* It messed up the three-way content merge for checking the results of
merging for one of the renames, accidentally turning it into a
two-way merge.
* It got the contents of the base files it was using to compare
against wrong, due to an off-by-one error, and overwrite-redirection
('>') instead of append-redirection ('>>').
* It used slightly too-long conflict markers
* It didn't include filenames in the conflict marker hunks (granted,
that was a shortcoming of the merge-recursive backend for rename/add
and rename/rename(2to1) conflicts, but since it's
test_expect_failure anyway we might as well make it expect our
preferred behavior rather than some compromise that we can't yet
reach anyway).
Fix these issues so that a merge backend which correctly handles these
kinds of nested conflicts will pass the test.

Apparently I don't know how to count untracked files, and since the
tests in question were marked as test_expect_failure, no one ever
noticed it until now. Correct the count, as these tests clearly create
three untracked files ('out', 'err', and 'file_count').
(I believe this problem arose because earlier incarnations counted lines
via a pipe to 'wc -l'. Reviewers asked that it be replaced by writing
the output to a file and using test_line_count, but when the temporary
output was added to a separate file, the count of untracked files should
have increased.)

The testcase only required that the merge complete without conflict,
without specifying what the correct resolution was. Since normalization
changed this from a modify/delete to a not-modified/delete, the correct
resolution is to have the file be removed at the end. Add a check for

The tests for the merge machinery are spread over several places.
Collect them into t64xx for simplicity. Some notes:
t60[234]*.sh:
Merge tests started in t602*, overgrew bisect and remote tracking
tests in t6030, t6040, and t6041, and nearly overtook replace tests
in t6050. This made picking out relevant tests that I wanted to run
in a tighter loop slightly more annoying for years.
t303*.sh:
These started out as tests for the 'merge-recursive' toplevel command,
but did not restrict to that and had lots of overlap with the
underlying merge machinery.
t7405, t7613:
submodule-specific merge logic started out in submodule.c but was
moved to merge-recursive.c in commit 18cfc08866 ("submodule.c: move
submodule merging to merge-recursive.c", 2018-05-15). Since these
tests are about the logic found in the merge machinery, moving these
tests to be with the merge tests makes sense.
t7607, t7609:
Having tests spread all over the place makes it more likely that
additional tests related to a certain piece of logic grow in all those
other places. Much like t303*.sh, these two tests were about the
underlying merge machinery rather than outer levels.
Tests that were NOT moved:
t76[01]*.sh:
Other than the four tests mentioned above, the remaining tests in
t76[01]*.sh are related to non-recursive merge strategies, parameter
parsing, and other stuff associated with the highlevel builtin/merge.c
rather than the recursive merge machinery.
t3[45]*.sh:
The rebase testcases in t34*.sh also test the merge logic pretty
heavily; sometimes changes I make only trigger failures in the rebase
tests. The rebase tests are already nicely coupled together, though,
and I didn't want to mess that up. Similar comments apply for the
cherry-pick tests in t35*.sh.

Under normal circumstances, if a test author misspells a filename passed
to test_cmp(), the error is quickly discovered when the test fails
unexpectedly due to test_cmp() being unable to find the file. However,
if the test is expected to fail, as with test_expect_failure(), a
misspelled filename as argument to test_cmp() will go unnoticed since
the test will indeed fail, but for the wrong reason. Make it easier for
test authors to discover such problems early by sanity-checking the
arguments to test_cmp(). To avoid penalizing all clients of test_cmp()
in the general case, only check for missing files if the comparison
fails.
While at it, make test_cmp_bin() sanity-check its arguments, as well.

In order to not repeatedly search for the reference-transaction hook in
case it's getting called multiple times, we use a caching mechanism to
only call `find_hook()` once. What was missed though is that the return
value of `find_hook()` actually comes from a static strbuf, which means
it will get overwritten when calling `find_hook()` again. As a result,
we may call the wrong hook with parameters of the reference-transaction
hook.
This scenario was spotted in the wild when executing a git-push(1) with
multiple references, where there are interleaving calls to both the
update and the reference-transaction hook. While initial calls to the
reference-transaction hook work as expected, it will stop working after
the next invocation of the update hook. The result is that we now start
calling the update hook with parameters and stdin of the
reference-transaction hook.
This commit fixes the issue by storing a copy of `find_hook()`'s return
value in the cache.

Drop whitespace in the value of `$test_description` and in a test body
and use `test_write_lines`.
Stop defining `$u` with a trailing space just so that we can tuck it in
like `git foo $u$more...` and get minimal whitespace in the command:
`git foo $u $more...` is more readable at the "cost" of an empty `$u`
yielding `git foo something...`.
Finally, avoid using single quotes within the test scripts to repeatedly
close and reopen the quotes that wrap the test scripts (see the previous
commit). This "unnecessary" quoting does mean that the verbose test
output shows the interpolated values, i.e., the shell code we're
running. But the downside is that the source of the script does *not*
show the shell code we're eventually executing, leaving the reader to
reason about what we really do and whether there are any quoting issues.
(There aren't.)
Where we run through loops to generate several "identical but different"
tests, the test message contains the interpolated variables we're
looping on, meaning one can always identify exactly which instance has
failed, even if the verbose test output shows the exact same test body
several times.

In the test scripts, the recommended style is, e.g.:
test_expect_success 'name' '
do-something somehow &&
do-some-more testing
'
When using this style, any single quote in the multi-line test section
is actually closing the lone single quotes that surround it.
It can be a non-issue in practice:
test_expect_success 'sed a little' '
sed -e 's/hi/lo/' in >out # "ok": no whitespace in s/hi/lo/
'
Or it can be a bug in the test, e.g., because variable interpolation
happens before the test even begins executing:
v=abc
test_expect_success 'variable interpolation' '
v=def &&
echo '"$v"' # abc
'
Change several such in-test single quotes to use double quotes instead
or, in a few cases, drop them altogether. These were identified using
some crude grepping. We're not fixing any test bugs here, but we're
hopefully making these tests slightly easier to grok and to maintain.
There are legitimate use cases for closing a quote and opening a new
one, e.g., both '\'' and '"'"' can be used to produce a literal single
quote. I'm not touching any of those here.

The tests added to t5616 in 6dd3456a8c (upload-pack.c: allow banning
certain object filter(s), 2020-08-03) can fail racily, but only with
GETTEXT_POISON enabled.
The tests in question look something like this:
test_must_fail ok=sigpipe git clone --filter=blob:none ... 2>err &&
grep "filter blob:none not supported' err
The remote upload-pack process writes that error message both as an ERR
packet, but also via a die() message. In theory we should see the
message twice in the "err" file. The client relays the message from the
packet to its stderr (with a "remote error:" prefix), and because this
is a local-system clone, upload-pack's stderr goes to the same place.
But because clone may be writing to the pipe when upload-pack calls
die(), it may get SIGPIPE and fail to relay the message. That's why we
need our "ok=sigpipe" trick. But our grep should still work reliably in
that case. Either:
- we got SIGPIPE on the client, which means upload-pack completed its
die(), and we'll see that version of the message.
- the client didn't get SIGPIPE, and so it successfully relays the
message.
In theory we'd see both copies of the message in the second case. But
now always! As soon as the client sees ERR, it exits and we run grep.
But we have no guarantee that the upload-pack process has exited at this
point, or even written its die() message. We might only see the client
version of the message.
Normally that's OK. We only need to see one or the other to pass the
test. But now consider GETTEXT_POISON. upload-pack doesn't translate the
die() message nor the ERR packet. But once the client receives it, it
calls:
die(_("remote error: %s"), buffer + 4);
That message _is_ marked for translation. Normally we'd just replace the
"remote error:" portion of it, but in GETTEXT_POISON mode, we replace
the whole thing with "# GETTEXT POISON #" and don't include the "%s"
part at all. So the whole text from the ERR packet is dropped, and so we
may racily see a test failure if upload-pack's die() call wasn't yet
written.
We can fix it by using test_i18ngrep, which just makes this grep a noop
in the poison mode.

The pretend-object mechanism checks if the given object already

sha1-file: make pretend_object_file() not prefetch
While packing many objects in a repository with a promissor remote,
lazily fetching missing objects from the promissor remote one by
one may be inefficient---the code now attempts to fetch all the
missing objects in batch (obviously this won't work for a lazy
clone that lazily fetches tree objects as you cannot even enumerate
what blobs are missing until you learn which trees are missing).

In b79cf959b2 (upload-pack.c: allow banning certain object filter(s),
2020-02-26), we introduced functionality to disallow certain object
filters from being chosen from within 'git upload-pack'. Traditionally,
administrators use this functionality to disallow filters that are known
to perform slowly, for e.g., those that do not have bitmap-level
filtering.
In the past, the '--filter=tree:<n>' was one such filter that does not
have bitmap-level filtering support, and so was likely to be banned by
administrators.
However, in the previous couple of commits, we introduced bitmap-level
filtering for the case when 'n' is equal to '0', i.e., as if we had a
'--filter=tree:none' choice.
While it would be sufficient to simply write
$ git config uploadpackfilter.tree.allow true
(since it would allow all values of 'n'), we would like to be able to
allow this filter for certain values of 'n', i.e., those no greater than
some pre-specified maximum.
In order to do this, introduce a new configuration key, as follows:
$ git config uploadpackfilter.tree.maxDepth <m>
where '<m>' specifies the maximum allowed value of 'n' in the filter
'tree:n'. Administrators who wish to allow for only the value '0' can
write:
$ git config uploadpackfilter.tree.allow true
$ git config uploadpackfilter.tree.maxDepth 0
which allows '--filter=tree:0', but no other values.

object filters, but ban others. Specifically, they may wish to allow
object filters that can be optimized by the use of bitmaps, while
rejecting other object filters which aren't and represent a perceived
performance degradation (as well as an increased load factor on the
server).
Allow configuring 'git upload-pack' to support object filters on a
case-by-case basis by introducing two new configuration variables:
- 'uploadpackfilter.allow'
- 'uploadpackfilter.<kind>.allow'
where '<kind>' may be one of 'blobNone', 'blobLimit', 'tree', and so on.
Setting the second configuration variable for any valid value of
'<kind>' explicitly allows or disallows restricting that kind of object
filter.
If a client requests the object filter <kind> and the respective
configuration value is not set, 'git upload-pack' will default to the
value of 'uploadpackfilter.allow', which itself defaults to 'true' to
maintain backwards compatibility. Note that this differs from
'uploadpack.allowfilter', which controls whether or not the 'filter'
capability is advertised.

The 'merge' command is not the only one that does merges; other commands
like checkout -m or rebase do as well. Unfortunately, the only area of
the code that checked for the "merge.renormalize" config setting was in
builtin/merge.c, meaning it could only affect merges performed by the
"merge" command. Move the handling of this config setting to
merge_recursive_config() so that other commands can benefit from it as
well. Fixes a few tests in t6038.

t6038.11, 'cherry-pick patch from after text=auto' was a test of
undefined behavior. To make matters worse, while there are a couple
possible correct answers, this test was coded to only check for an
obviously incorrect answer. And the final cherry on top is that the
test is marked test_expect_failure, meaning it can't provide much value,
other than possibly confusing future folks who come along and try to
work on attributes and look at existing tests. Because of all these
problems, just remove the test.
But for any future code spelunkers, here's my understanding of the two
possible correct answers:
This test was set up so that on a branch with no .gitattributes file,
you cherry-picked a patch from a branch that had a .gitattributes file
(containing '* text=auto'). Further, the two branches had a file which
differed only in line endings. In this situation, correct behavior is
not well defined: should the .gitattributes file affect the merge or
not?
If the .gitattributes file on the other branch should not affect the
merge, then we would have a content conflict with all three stages
different (the merge base didn't match either side).
If the .gitattributes file from the other branch should affect the
merge, then we would expect the line endings to be normalized to LF for
the version to be recorded in the repository. This would mean that when
doing a three-way content merge on the file that differed in line
endings, that the three-way content merge would see that the versions on
both sides matched and so the cherry-pick has no conflicts and can
succeed. The line endings in the file as recorded in the repository
will change from CRLF to LF. The version checked out in the working
copy will depend on the platform (since there's no eol attribute defined
for the file).
Also, as a final side note, this test expected an error message that was
built assuming cherry-pick was the old scripted version, because
cherry-pick no longer uses the error message that was encoded in this
test. So it was wrong for yet another reason.
Given that the handling of .gitattributes is not well defined and this
test was obviously broken and could do nothing but confuse future
readers, just remove it.

t6038 had a pair of tests that were expected to fail, but weren't
failing for the expected reason. Both were meant to do a merge that
could be done cleanly after renormalization, but were supposed to fail
for lack of renormalization. Unfortunately, both tests had staged
changes, and checkout -m would abort due to the presence of those staged
changes before even attempting a merge.
Fix this first issue by utilizing git-restore instead of git-checkout,
so that the index is left alone and just the working directory gets the
changes we want.
However, there is a second issue with these tests. Technically, they
just wanted to verify that after renormalization, no conflicts would be
present. This could have been checked for by grepping for a lack of
conflict markers, but the test instead tried to compare the working
directory files to an expected result. Unfortunately, the setting of
"text=auto" without setting core.eol to any value meant that the content
of the file (in particular, the line endings) would be
platform-dependent and the tests could only pass on some platforms.
Replace the existing comparison with a call to 'git diff --no-index
--ignore-cr-at-eol' to verify that the contents, other than possible
carriage returns in the file, match the expected results and in
particular that the file has no conflicts from the checkout -m
operation.

We use
printf '\0'
to generate a NUL byte which we then `dd` into the packfile to ensure
that we modify the first byte of the first object, thereby
(probabilistically) invalidating the checksum. Except the single quotes
we're using are interpreted to match with the ones we enclose the whole
test in. So we actually execute
printf \0
and end up injecting the ASCII code for "0", 0x30, instead.
The comment right above this `printf` invocation says that "at least one
of [the type bits] is not zero, so setting the first byte to 0 is
sufficient". Substituting "0x30" for "0" in that comment won't do: we'd
need to reason about which bits go where and just what the packfile
looks like that we're modifying in this test.
Let's avoid all of that by actually executing
printf "\0"
to generate a NUL byte, as intended.

added a new format for ref-filter, and added a function to generate
tests for this new feature in t6300. Unfortunately, it tries to run
`test_expect_sucess' instead of `test_expect_success', and writes
$expect to `expected', but tries to read `expect'. Those two issues
were probably unnoticed because the script only printed errors, but did
not crash. This fixes these issues.
