In commit 8daec1df03 ("merge-recursive: switch from (oid,mode) pairs
to a diff_filespec", 2019-04-05), we actually switched from
(oid,mode,path) triplets to a diff_filespec -- but most callsites in the
patch only needed to worry about oid and mode so the commit message
focused on that. The oversight in the commit message apparently spilled
over to the code as well; one of the dozen or so callsites accidentally
dropped the setting of the path in the conversion. Restore the path
setting in that location.
Also, this pointed out that our testsuite was lacking a good rename/add
test, at least one that involved the need for merge content with the
rename. Add such a test, and since rename/add vs. add/rename could
possibly be important, redo the merge the opposite direction to make
sure we don't have issues with the direction of the merge. These
testcases failed before restoring the setting of path, but with the
paths appropriately set the testcases both pass.

"maybe" pointer in 'struct commit' is tricky because it can be lazily
initialized to take advantage of commit-graph if available. This makes
it not safe to access directly.
This leads to a rule in commit.cocci to rewrite 'x->maybe_tree' to
'get_commit_tree(x)'. But that rule alone could lead to incorrectly
rewrite assignments, e.g. from
x->maybe_tree = yes
to
get_commit_tree(x) = yes
Because of this we have a second rule to revert this effect. Szeder
found out that we could do better by performing the assignment rewrite
rule first, then the remaining is read-only access and handled by the
current first rule.
For this to work, we need to transform "x->maybe_tree = y" to something
that does NOT contain "x->maybe_tree" to avoid the original first
rule. This is where set_commit_tree() comes in.

When all of x/a, x/b, and x/c have moved to z/a, z/b, and z/c on one
branch, there is a question about whether x/d added on a different
branch should remain at x/d or appear at z/d when the two branches are
merged. There are different possible viewpoints here:
A) The file was placed at x/d; it's unrelated to the other files in
x/ so it doesn't matter that all the files from x/ moved to z/ on
one branch; x/d should still remain at x/d.
B) x/d is related to the other files in x/, and x/ was renamed to z/;
therefore x/d should be moved to z/d.
Since there was no ability to detect directory renames prior to
git-2.18, users experienced (A) regardless of context. Choice (B) was
implemented in git-2.18, with no option to go back to (A), and has been
in use since. However, one user reported that the merge results did not
match their expectations, making the change of default problematic,
especially since there was no notice printed when directory rename
detection moved files.
Note that there is also a third possibility here:
C) There are different answers depending on the context and content
that cannot be determined by git, so this is a conflict. Use a
higher stage in the index to record the conflict and notify the
user of the potential issue instead of silently selecting a
resolution for them.
Add an option for users to specify their preference for whether to use
directory rename detection, and default to (C). Even when directory
rename detection is on, add notice messages about files moved into new
directories.
As a sidenote, x/d did not have to be a new file here; it could have
already existed at some other path and been renamed to x/d, with
directory rename detection just renaming it again to z/d. Thus, it's
not just new files, but also a modification to all rename types (normal
renames, rename/add, rename/delete, rename/rename(1to1),
rename/rename(1to2), and rename/rename(2to1)).

This makes the rename/rename(2to1) conflicts use the new
handle_file_collision() function. Since that function was based
originally on the rename/rename(2to1) handling code, the main
differences here are in what was added. In particular:
* Instead of storing files at collide_path~HEAD and collide_path~MERGE,
the files are two-way merged and recorded at collide_path.
* Instead of recording the version of the renamed file that existed
on the renamed side in the index (thus ignoring any changes that
were made to the file on the side of history without the rename),
we do a three-way content merge on the renamed path, then store
that at either stage 2 or stage 3.
* Note that since the content merge for each rename may have conflicts,
and then we have to merge the two renamed files, we can end up with
nested conflict markers.

This makes the rename/add conflict handling make use of the new
handle_file_collision() function, which fixes several bugs and improves
things for the rename/add case significantly. Previously, rename/add
would:
* Not leave any higher order stage entries in the index, making it
appear as if there were no conflict.
* Would place the rename file at the colliding path, and move the
added file elsewhere, which combined with the lack of higher order
stage entries felt really odd. It's not clear to me why the
rename should take precedence over the add; if one should be moved
out of the way, they both probably should.
* In the recursive case, it would do a two way merge of the added
file and the version of the renamed file on the renamed side,
completely excluding modifications to the renamed file on the
unrenamed side of history.
Use the new handle_file_collision() to fix all of these issues.

There are three conflict types that represent two (possibly entirely
unrelated) files colliding at the same location:
* add/add
* rename/add
* rename/rename(2to1)
These three conflict types already share more similarity than might be
immediately apparent from their description: (1) the handling of the
rename variants already involves removing any entries from the index
corresponding to the original file names[*], thus only leaving entries
in the index for the colliding path; (2) likewise, any trace of the
original file name in the working tree is also removed. So, in all
three cases we're left with how to represent two colliding files in both
the index and the working copy.
[*] Technically, this isn't quite true because rename/rename(2to1)
conflicts in the recursive (o->call_depth > 0) case do an "unrename"
since about seven years ago. But even in that case, Junio felt
compelled to explain that my decision to "unrename" wasn't necessarily
the only or right answer -- search for "Comment from Junio" in t6036 for
details.
My initial motivation for looking at these three conflict types was that
if the handling of these three conflict types is the same, at least in
the limited set of cases where a renamed file is unmodified on the side
of history where the file is not renamed, then a significant performance
improvement for rename detection during merges is possible. However,
while that served as motivation to look at these three types of
conflicts, the actual goal of this new function is to try to improve the
handling for all three cases, not to merely make them the same as each
other in that special circumstance.
=== Handling the working tree ===
The previous behavior for these conflict types in regards to the
working tree (assuming the file collision occurs at 'foo') was:
* add/add does a two-way merge of the two files and records it as 'foo'.
* rename/rename(2to1) records the two different files into two new
uniquely named files (foo~HEAD and foo~$MERGE), while removing 'foo'
from the working tree.
* rename/add records the two different files into two different
locations, recording the add at foo~$SIDE and, oddly, recording
the rename at foo (why is the rename more important than the add?)
So, the question for what to write to the working tree boils down to
whether the two colliding files should be two-way merged and recorded in
place, or recorded into separate files. As per discussion on the git
mailing lit, two-way merging was deemed to always be preferred, as that
makes these cases all more like content conflicts that users can handle
from within their favorite editor, IDE, or merge tool. Note that since
renames already involve a content merge, rename/add and
rename/rename(2to1) conflicts could result in nested conflict markers.
=== Handling of the index ===
For a typical rename, unpack_trees() would set up the index in the
following fashion:
old_path new_path
stage1: 5ca1ab1e 00000000
stage2: f005ba11 00000000
stage3: 00000000 b0a710ad
And merge-recursive would rewrite this to
new_path
stage1: 5ca1ab1e
stage2: f005ba11
stage3: b0a710ad
Removing old_path from the index means the user won't have to `git rm
old_path` manually every time a renamed path has a content conflict.
It also means they can use `git checkout [--ours|--theirs|--conflict|-m]
new_path`, `git diff [--ours|--theirs]` and various other commands that
would be difficult otherwise.
This strategy becomes a problem when we have a rename/add or
rename/rename(2to1) conflict, however, because then we have only three
slots to store blob sha1s and we need either four or six. Previously,
this was handled by continuing to delete old_path from the index, and
just outright ignoring any blob shas from old_path. That had the
downside of deleting any trace of changes made to old_path on the other
side of history. This function instead does a three-way content merge of
the renamed file, and stores the blob sha1 for that at either stage2 or
stage3 for new_path (depending on which side the rename came from). That
has the advantage of bringing information about changes on both sides and
still allows for easy resolution (no need to git rm old_path, etc.), but
does have the downside that if the content merge had conflict markers,
then what we store in the index is the sha1 of a blob with conflict
markers. While that is a downside, it seems less problematic than the
downsides of any obvious alternatives, and certainly makes more sense
than the previous handling. Further, it has a precedent in that when we
do recursive merges, we may accept a file with conflict markers as the
resolution for the merge of the merge-bases, which will then show up in
the index of the outer merge at stage 1 if a conflict exists at the outer
level.

Later patches in this series will modify file collision conflict
handling (e.g. from rename/add and rename/rename(2to1) conflicts) so
that multiply nested conflict markers can arise even before considering
conflicts in the virtual merge base. Including the virtual merge base
will provide a way to get triply (or higher) nested conflict markers.
This new way to get nested conflict markers will force the need for a
more general mechanism to extend the length of conflict markers in order
to differentiate between different nestings.
Along with this change to conflict marker length handling, we want to
make sure that we don't regress handling for other types of conflicts
with nested conflict markers. Add a more involved testcase using
merge.conflictstyle=diff3, where not only does the virtual merge base
contain conflicts, but its virtual merge base does as well (i.e. a case
with triply nested conflict markers). While there are multiple
reasonable ways to handle nested conflict markers in the virtual merge
base for this type of situation, the easiest approach that dovetails
well with the new needs for the file collision conflict handling is to
require that the length of the conflict markers increase with each
subsequent nesting.
Subsequent patches which change the rename/add and rename/rename(2to1)
conflict handling will modify the extra_marker_size flag appropriately
for their new needs.

We want to load unmerged entries from HEAD into the index at stage 2 and
from MERGE_HEAD into stage 3. Similarly, folks expect merge conflicts
to look like
<<<<<<<< HEAD
content from our side
========
content from their side
>>>>>>>> MERGE_HEAD
not
<<<<<<<< MERGE_HEAD
content from their side
========
content from our side
>>>>>>>> HEAD
The correct order usually comes naturally and for free, but with renames
we often have data in the form {rename_branch, other_branch}, and
working relative to the rename first (e.g. for rename/add) is more
convenient elsewhere in the code. Address the slight impedance
mismatch by having some functions re-call themselves with flipped
arguments when the branch order is reversed.
Note that setup_rename_conflict_info() has one asymmetry in it, in
setting dst_entry1->processed=0 but not doing similarly for
dst_entry2->processed. When dealing with rename/rename and similar
conflicts, we do not want the processing to happen twice, so the
desire to only set one of the entries to unprocessed is intentional.
So, while this change modifies which branch's entry will be marked as
unprocessed, that dovetails nicely with putting HEAD first so that we
get the index stage entries and conflict markers in the right order.

Each individual file involved in a rename could have also been modified
on both sides of history, meaning it may need to have content merges.
If two such files are renamed into the same location, then on top of the
two natural auto-merging messages we also have to two-way merge the
result, giving us messages that look like
Auto-merging somefile.c (was somecase.c)
Auto-merging somefile.c (was somefolder.c)
Auto-merging somefile.c
However, despite the fact that I was the one who put the "(was %s)"
portions into the messages (and just a few months ago), I was still
initially confused when running into a rename/rename(2to1) case and
wondered if somefile.c had been merged three times. Update this to
instead be:
Auto-merging version of somefile.c from somecase.c
Auto-merging version of somefile.c from someportfolio.c
Auto-merging somefile.c
This is an admittedly long set of messages for a single path, but you
only get all three messages when dealing with the rare case of a
rename/rename(2to1) conflict where both sides of both original files
were also modified, in conflicting ways.

merge_3way() has code to mark different sides of the conflict with info
about where the content comes from. If the names of the files involved
match, it simply uses the branch name. If the names of the files do not
match, it uses branchname:filename. Unfortunately, merge_content()
previously always called it with one.path = a.path = b.path. Granted,
it didn't have other path information available to it for years, but
that was corrected by passing rename_conflict_info in commit
3c217c077a ("merge-recursive: Provide more info in conflict markers
with file renames", 2011-08-11). In that commit, instead of just fixing
the bug with the pathnames, it created fake branch names incorporating
both the branch name and file name.
This "fake branch" workaround was extended further when I pulled that
logic out into a special function in commit dac4741554
("merge-recursive: Create function for merging with branchname:file
markers", 2011-08-11), and a number of other sites outside of
merge_content() have been added which call into that. However, this
Rube-Goldberg-esque setup is not merely duplicate code and unnecessary
work, it also risked having other callsites invoke it in a way that
would result in markers of the form branchname:filename:filename (i.e.
with the filename repeated).
Fix this whole mess by:
- setting one.path, a.path, and b.path appropriately
- calling merge_file_1() directly
- deleting the merge_file_special_markers() workaround wrapper

Using the more restrictive oideq() should, in the long run,
give the compiler more opportunities to optimize these
callsites. For now, this conversion should be a complete
noop with respect to the generated code.
The result is also perhaps a little more readable, as it
avoids the "zero is equal" idiom. Since it's so prevalent in
C, I think seasoned programmers tend not to even notice it
anymore, but it can sometimes make for awkward double
negations (e.g., we can drop a few !!oidcmp() instances
here).
This patch was generated almost entirely by the included
coccinelle patch. This mechanical conversion should be
completely safe, because we check explicitly for cases where
oidcmp() is compared to 0, which is what oideq() is doing
under the hood. Note that we don't have to catch "!oidcmp()"
separately; coccinelle's standard isomorphisms make sure the
two are treated equivalently.
I say "almost" because I did hand-edit the coccinelle output
to fix up a few style violations (it mostly keeps the
original formatting, but sometimes unwraps long lines).

merge-recursive takes any files marked as unmerged by unpack_trees,
tries to figure out whether they can be resolved (e.g. using renames
or a file-level merge), and then if they can be it will delete the old
cache entries and writes new ones. This means that any ce_flags for
those cache entries are essentially cleared when merging.
Unfortunately, if a file was marked as skip_worktree and it needs a
file-level merge but the merge results in the same version of the file
that was found in HEAD, we skip updating the worktree (because the
file was unchanged) but clear the skip_worktree bit (because of the
delete-cache-entry-and-write-new-one). This makes git treat the file
as having a local change in the working copy, namely a delete, when it
should appear as unchanged despite not being present. Avoid this
problem by copying the skip_worktree flag in this case.

builtin/merge.c says that when we are about to perform a merge:
...the index must be in sync with the head commit. The strategies are
responsible to ensure this.
merge-recursive has always relied on unpack_trees() to enforce this
requirement, except in the case of an "Already up to date!" merge.
unpack-trees.c does not actually enforce this requirement, though. It
allows for a pair of exceptions, in cases which it refers to as #14(ALT)
and #2ALT. Documentation/technical/trivial-merge.txt can be consulted for
the precise meanings of the various case numbers and their meanings for
unpack-trees.c, but we have a high-level description of the intent behind
these two exceptions in a combined and summarized form in
Documentation/git-merge.txt:
...[merge will] abort if there are any changes registered in the index
relative to the `HEAD` commit. (One exception is when the changed index
entries are in the state that would result from the merge already.)
While this high-level description does describe conditions under which it
would be safe to allow the index to diverge from HEAD, it does not match
what is actually implemented. In particular, unpack-trees.c has no
knowledge of renames, and these two exceptions were written assuming that
no renames take place. Once renames get into the mix, it is no longer
safe to allow the index to not match for #2ALT. We could modify
unpack-trees to only allow #14(ALT) as an exception, but that would be
more strict than required for the resolve strategy (since the resolve
strategy doesn't handle renames at all). Therefore, unpack_trees.c seems
like the wrong place to fix this.
Further, if someone fixes the combination of break and rename detection
and modifies merge-recursive to take advantage of the combination, then it
will also no longer be safe to allow the index to not match for #14(ALT)
when the recursive strategy is in use. Therefore, leaving one of the
exceptions in place with the recursive merge strategy feels like we are
just leaving a latent bug in the code for folks in the future to stumble
across.
It may be possible to fix both unpack-trees and merge-recursive in a way
that implements the exception as stated in Documentation/git-merge.txt,
but it would be somewhat complex, possibly also buggy at first, and
ultimately, not all that valuable. Instead, just enforce the requirement
stated in builtin/merge.c; error out if the index does not match the HEAD
commit, just like the 'ours' and 'octopus' strategies do.
Some testcase fixups were in order:
t7611: had many tests designed to show that `git merge --abort` could
not always restore the index and working tree to the state they
were in before the merge started. The tests that were associated
with having changes in the index before the merge started are no
longer applicable, so they have been removed.
t7504: had a few tests that had stray staged changes that were not
actually part of the test under consideration
t6044: We no longer expect stray staged changes to sometimes result
in the merge continuing. Also, fix a case where a merge
didn't abort but should have.

`git merge-recursive` does a three-way merge between user-specified trees
base, head, and remote. Since the user is allowed to specify head, we can
not necesarily assume that head == HEAD.
Modify index_has_changes() to take an extra argument specifying the tree
to compare against. If NULL, it will compare to HEAD. We then use this
from merge-recursive to make sure we compare to the user-specified head.

In commit 65170c07d4 ("merge-recursive: avoid incorporating uncommitted
changes in a merge", 2017-12-21), it was noted that there was a special
case when merge-recursive didn't rely on unpack_trees() to enforce the
index == HEAD requirement, and thus that it needed to do that enforcement
itself. Unfortunately, it returned the wrong exit status, signalling that
the merge completed but had conflicts, rather than that it was aborted.
Fix the return code, and while we're at it, change the error message to
match what unpack_trees() would have printed.
