There are inconsistencies in the way commands currently handle
the core.excludesfile configuration variable. The problem is
the variable is too new to be noticed by anything other than
git-add and git-status.
* git-ls-files does not notice any of the "ignore" files by
default, as it predates the standardized set of ignore files.
The calling scripts established the convention to use
.git/info/exclude, .gitignore, and later core.excludesfile.
* git-add and git-status know about it because they call
add_excludes_from_file() directly with their own notion of
which standard set of ignore files to use. This is just a
stupid duplication of code that need to be updated every time
the definition of the standard set of ignore files is
changed.
* git-read-tree takes --exclude-per-directory=<gitignore>,
not because the flexibility was needed. Again, this was
because the option predates the standardization of the ignore
files.
* git-merge-recursive uses hardcoded per-directory .gitignore
and nothing else. git-clean (scripted version) does not
honor core.* because its call to underlying ls-files does not
know about it. git-clean in C (parked in 'pu') doesn't either.
We probably could change git-ls-files to use the standard set
when no excludes are specified on the command line and ignore
processing was asked, or something like that, but that will be a
change in semantics and might break people's scripts in a subtle
way. I am somewhat reluctant to make such a change.
On the other hand, I think it makes perfect sense to fix
git-read-tree, git-merge-recursive and git-clean to follow the
same rule as other commands. I do not think of a valid use case
to give an exclude-per-directory that is nonstandard to
read-tree command, outside a "negative" test in the t1004 test
script.
This patch is the first step to untangle this mess.
The next step would be to teach read-tree, merge-recursive and
clean (in C) to use setup_standard_excludes().

From version 1.72 it will replace all dots in roff requests with U+2302
("house" character), and add escaping in output for all instances of dot
that are not in roff requests. This caused the ".ft" hack forcing
monospace font in listingblocks to end up as "\&.ft" and being visible
in the resulting man page.
The fix adds a DOCBOOK_XSL_172 build variable that will disable the
hack. To allow this variable to be defined in config.mak it also moves
build variable handling below the inclusion of config.mak.

Solaris 9's vsnprintf implementation returns -1 if we pass it a
buffer of length 0. The only way to get it to give us the actual
length necessary for the formatted string is to grow the buffer
out to have at least 1 byte available in the strbuf and then ask
it to compute the length.
If the available space is 0 I'm growing it out by 64 to ensure
we will get an accurate length estimate from all implementations.
Some callers may need to grow the strbuf again but 64 should be a
reasonable enough initial growth.
We also no longer silently fail to append to the string when we are
faced with a broken vsnprintf implementation. On Solaris 9 this
silent failure caused me to no longer be able to execute "git clone"
as we tried to exec the empty string rather than "git-clone".

Brian Downing noticed fast-import can produce tree depths of up
to 6,035 objects and even deeper. Long delta chains can create
very small packfiles but cause problems during repacking as git
needs to unpack each tree to count the reachable blobs.
What's happening here is the active branch cache isn't big enough.
We're swapping out the branch and thus recycling the tree information
(struct tree_content) back into the free pool. When we later reload
the tree we set the delta_depth to 0 but we kept the tree we just
reloaded as a delta base.
So if the tree we reloaded was already at the maximum depth we
wouldn't know it and make the new tree a delta. Multiply the
number of times the branch cache has to swap out the tree times
max_depth (10) and you get the maximum delta depth of a tree created
by fast-import. In Brian's case above the active branch cache had
to swap the branch out 603/604 times during this import to produce
a tree with a delta depth of 6035.

# merge the differences in.
head=$(git-write-tree) ||
die "Your index file is unmerged."
;;
*)
head=$(git-rev-parse --verify HEAD) ||
die "You do not have a valid HEAD"
files=$(git-diff-index --cached --name-only $head) || exit
if [ "$files" ]; then
die "Dirty index: cannot $me (dirty: $files)"
fi

Back in e3c6f240fd Junio taught
git-fetch to avoid copying objects when we are fetching from
a repository that is already registered as an alternate object
database. In such a case there is no reason to copy any objects
as we can already obtain them through the alternate.
However we need to ensure the objects are all reachable, so we
run `git rev-list --objects $theirs --not --all` to verify this.
If any object is missing or unreadable then we need to fetch/copy
the objects from the remote. When a missing object is detected
the git-rev-list process will exit with a non-zero exit status,
making this condition quite easy to detect.
Although git-fetch is currently a builtin (and so is rev-list)
we cannot invoke the traverse_objects() API at this point in the
transport code. The object walker within traverse_objects() calls
die() as soon as it finds an object it cannot read. If that happens
we want to resume the fetch process by calling do_fetch_pack().
To get around this we spawn git-rev-list into a background process
to prevent a die() from killing the foreground fetch process,
thus allowing the fetch process to resume into do_fetch_pack()
if copying is necessary.
We aren't interested in the output of rev-list (a list of SHA-1
object names that are reachable) or its errors (a "spurious" error
about an object not being found as we need to copy it) so we redirect
both stdout and stderr to /dev/null.
We run this git-rev-list based check before any fetch as we may
already have the necessary objects local from a prior fetch. If we
don't then its very likely the first $theirs object listed on the
command line won't exist locally and git-rev-list will die very
quickly, allowing us to start the network transfer. This test even
on remote URLs may save bandwidth if someone runs `git pull origin`,
sees a merge conflict, resets out, then redoes the same pull just
a short time later. If the remote hasn't changed between the two
pulls and the local repository hasn't had git-gc run in it then
there is probably no need to perform network transfer as all of
the objects are local.
Documentation for the new quickfetch function was suggested and
written by Junio, based on his original comment in git-fetch.sh.

Some uses of git-rev-list are to run it with --objects to see if
a range of objects between two or more commits is fully connected
or not. In such a case the caller doesn't care about the actual
object names or hash hints so formatting this data only for it to
be dumped to /dev/null by a redirect is a waste of CPU time. If
all the caller needs is the exit status then --quiet can be used
to bypass the commit and object formatting.
Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Some callers may wish to redirect stderr to /dev/null in some
contexts, such as if they are executing a command only to get

may produce as a side-effect of computing that exit status.

Previously git-fetch.sh used `git cat-file -t` to determine if an
object referenced by a tag exists, and if so fetch that tag locally.
This was subtly broken during the port to C based builtin-fetch as
lookup_object() only works to locate an object if it was previously
accessed by the transport. Not all transports will access all
objects in this way, so tags were not always being fetched.
The rsync transport never loads objects into the internal object
table so automated tag following didn't work if rsync was used.
Automated tag following also didn't work on the native transport
if the new tag was behind the common point(s) negotiated between
the two ends of the connection as the tag's referrant would not
be loaded into the internal object table. Further the automated
tag following was broken with the HTTP commit walker if the new
tag's referrant was behind an existing ref, as the walker would
stop before loading the tag's referrant into the object table.
Switching to has_sha1_file() restores the original behavior from
the shell script by checking if the object exists in the ODB,
without relying on the state left behind by a transport.
