On Windows, we have that funny situation where the test script can refer
to POSIX paths because it runs in a shell that uses a POSIX emulation
layer ("MSYS2 runtime"). Yet, git.exe does *not* understand POSIX paths
at all but only pure Windows paths.
So let's just convert the POSIX paths to Windows paths before passing
them on to Git, using `pwd` (which is already modified on Windows to
output Windows paths).
While fixing the new tests on Windows, we also have to exclude the tests
that want to write a file with a name that is illegal on Windows
(unfortunately, there is more than one test trying to make use of that
file).

One way to diagnose broken regression tests is to run the test
script using 'sh -x t... -i -v' to find out which call actually
demonstrates the symptom.
Hence it is pretty counterproductive if the test script behaves
differently when being run via 'sh -x', in particular when using
test_cmp or test_i18ncmp on redirected stderr. A more recent way
"sh tXXXX -i -v -x" has the same issue.
So let's use test_i18ngrep (as suggested by Jonathan Nieder) instead of
test_cmp/test_i18ncmp to verify that stderr looks as expected.

'git config' can only show values or name-value pairs, so if a shell
script needs the names of set config variables it has to run 'git config
--list' or '--get-regexp' and parse the output to separate config
variable names from their values. However, such a parsing can't cope
with multi-line values. Though 'git config' can produce null-terminated
output for newline-safe parsing, that's of no use in such a case, becase
shells can't cope with null characters.
Even our own bash completion script suffers from these issues.
Help the completion script, and shell scripts in general, by introducing
the '--name-only' option to modify the output of '--list' and
'--get-regexp' to list only the names of config variables, so they don't
have to perform error-prone post processing to separate variable names
from their values anymore.

When you run "git config --int", the maximum size of integer
you get depends on how git was compiled, and what it
considers to be an "int".
This is almost useful, because your scripts calling "git
config" will behave similarly to git internally. But relying
on this is dubious; you have to actually know how git treats
each value internally (e.g., int versus unsigned long),
which is not documented and is subject to change. And even
if you know it is "unsigned long", we do not have a
git-config option to match that behavior.
Furthermore, you may simply be asking git to store a value
on your behalf (e.g., configuration for a hook). In that
case, the relevant range check has nothing at all to do with
git, but rather with whatever scripting tools you are using
(and git has no way of knowing what the appropriate range is
there).
Not only is the range check useless, but it is actively
harmful, as there is no way at all for scripts to look
at config variables with large values. For instance, one
cannot reliably get the value of pack.packSizeLimit via
git-config. On an LP64 system, git happily uses a 64-bit
"unsigned long" internally to represent the value, but the
script cannot read any value over 2G.
Ideally, the "--int" option would simply represent an
arbitrarily large integer. For practical purposes, however,
a 64-bit integer is large enough, and is much easier to
implement (and if somebody overflows it, we will still
notice the problem, and not simply return garbage).

2. Mention the reason the value was rejected (e.g.,

The config-editing code used by "git config var value" is
built around the regular config callback parser, whose only
triggerable item is an actual key. As a result, it does not
know anything about section headers, which can result in
unnecessarily ugly output:
1. When we delete the last key in a section, we should be
able to delete the section header.
2. When we add a key into a section, we should be able to
reuse the same section header, even if that section did
not have any keys in it already.
Unfortunately, fixing these is not trivial with the current
code. It would involve the config parser recording and
passing back information on each item it finds, including
headers, keys, and even comments (or even better, generating
an actual in-memory parse-tree).
Since these behaviors do not cause any functional problems
(i.e., the resulting config parses as expected, it is just
uglier than one would like), fixing them can wait until
somebody feels like substantially refactoring the parsing
code. In the meantime, let's document them as known issues
with some tests.

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.

The t1300 test script is quite old, and does not use our
modern techniques or styles. This patch updates it in the
following ways:
1. Use test_cmp instead of cmp (to make failures easier to
debug).
2. Use test_cmp instead of 'test $(command) = expected'.
This makes failures much easier to debug, and also
makes sure that $(command) exits appropriately.
3. Use test_must_fail (easier to read, and checks more
rigorously for signal death).
4. Write tests with the usual style of:
test_expect_success 'test name' '
test commands &&
...
'
rather than one-liners, or using backslash-continuation.
This is purely a style fixup.
There are still a few command happening outside of
test_expect invocations, but they are all innoccuous system
commands like "cat" and "cp". In an ideal world, each test
would be self sufficient and all commands would happen
inside test_expect, but it is not immediately obvious how
the grouping should work (some of the commands impact the
subsequent tests, and some of them are setting up and
modifying state that many tests depend on). This patch just
picks the low-hanging style fruit, and we can do more fixes
on top later.

The git-config command sometimes operates on the default set
of config files (either reading from all, or writing to repo
config), and sometimes operates on a specific file. In the
latter case, we set the magic global config_exclusive_filename,
and the code in config.c does the right thing.
Instead, let's have git-config use the "advanced" variants
of config.c's functions which let it specify an individual
filename (or NULL for the default). This makes the code a
lot more obvious, and fixes two small bugs:
1. A relative path specified by GIT_CONFIG=foo will look
in the wrong directory if we have to chdir as part of
repository setup. We already handle this properly for
"git config -f foo", but the GIT_CONFIG lookup used
config_exclusive_filename directly. By dropping to a
single magic variable, the GIT_CONFIG case now just
works.
2. Calling "git config -f foo --edit" would not respect
core.editor. This is because just before editing, we
called git_config, which would respect the
config_exclusive_filename setting, even though this
particular git_config call was not about looking in the
user's specified file, but rather about loading actual
git config, just as any other git program would.

The error handling for git_config is somewhat confusing. We
collect errors from running git_config_from_file on the
various config files and carefully pass them back up. But
the two odd things are:
1. We actually die on most errors in git_config_from_file.
In fact, the only error we actually pass back up is if
fopen() fails on the file.
2. Most callers of git_config do not check the error
return at all, but will continue if git_config reports
an error.
When the code for "git -c core.foo=bar" was added, it
dutifully passed errors up the call stack, only for them to
be eventually ignored. This makes it inconsistent with the
file-parsing code, which will die when it sees malformed
config. And it's somewhat unsafe, because it means an error
in parsing a typo like:
git -c clean.requireforce=ture clean
will continue the command, ignoring the config the user
tried to give.

Fix it by saving the original argv at the beginning of handle_options(),

The git_config() function signals error by returning -1 in
two instances:
1. An actual error occurs in opening a config file (parse
errors cause an immediate die).
2. Of the three possible config files, none was found.
However, this second case is often not an error at all; it
simply means that the user has no configuration (they are
outside a repo, and they have no ~/.gitconfig file). This
can lead to confusing errors, such as when the bash
completion calls "git config --list" outside of a repo. If
the user has a ~/.gitconfig, the command completes
succesfully; if they do not, it complains to stderr.
This patch allows callers of git_config to distinguish
between the two cases. Error is signaled by -1, and
otherwise the return value is the number of files parsed.
This means that the traditional "git_config(...) < 0" check
for error should work, but callers who want to know whether
we parsed any files or not can still do so.

unix-style path but git returns a native equivalent path for '~'. As
these are platform-dependent equivalent results it seems simplest to
skip the test entirely.
Moves the NOT_MINGW prereq from t5503 into the test library.

If $HOME is unset (as in some automated build situations),
currently
git config --path path.home "~"
git config --path --get path.home
segfaults. Error out with
Failed to expand user dir in: '~/'
instead.

When your current directory is not at the root of the working tree, and you
use the "-f" option with a relative path, the current code tries to read
from a wrong file, since argv[2] is now beyond the end of the rearranged
argument list.
This patch replaces the incorrect argv[2] with the variable holding the
given config file name.
The bug was introduced by d64ec16 (git config: reorganize to use parseopt).

395de250 (Expand ~ and ~user in core.excludesfile, commit.template)
introduced a C function git_config_pathname, doing ~/ and ~user/
expansion. This patch makes the feature available to scripts with 'git
config --get --path'.

Configuration values are expected to be quoted when they have leading or
trailing whitespace, but inner whitespace should be kept verbatim even if
the value is not quoted. This is already documented in git-config(1), but
the code caused inner whitespace to be collapsed to a single space,
breaking, for example, clones from a path that has two consecutive spaces
in it, as future fetches would only see a single space.

Many tests depend on that symbolic links work. This introduces a check
that sets the prerequisite tag SYMLINKS if the file system supports
symbolic links. Since so many tests have to check for this prerequisite,
we do the check in test-lib.sh, so that we don't need to repeat the test
in many scripts.
To check for 'ln -s' failures, you can use a FAT partition on Linux:
$ mkdosfs -C git-on-fat 1000000
$ sudo mount -o loop,uid=j6t,gid=users,shortname=winnt git-on-fat /mnt
Clone git to /mnt and
$ GIT_SKIP_TESTS='t0001.1[34] t0010 t1301 t403[34] t4129.[47] t5701.7
t7701.3 t9100 t9101.26 t9119 t9124.[67] t9200.10 t9600.6' \
make test
(These additionally skipped tests depend on POSIX permissions that FAT on
Linux does not provide.)
