The TODO comment suggested to heed core.bare from template config file
if no command line override given. And the prev_bare_repository
variable seems to have been placed for this sole purpose as it is not
used anywhere else.
However, it was clarified by Junio [1] that such values (including
core.bare) are ignored intentionally and does not make sense to
propagate them from template config to repository config. Also, the
directories for the worktree and repository are already created, and
therefore the bare/non-bare decision has already been made, by the
point we reach the codepath where the TODO comment is placed.
Therefore, prev_bare_repository does not have a usecase with/without
supporting core.bare from template. And the removal of
prev_bare_repository is safe as proved by the later part of the
comment:
"Unfortunately, the line above is equivalent to
is_bare_repository_cfg = !work_tree;
which ignores the config entirely even if no `--[no-]bare`
command line option was present.
To see why, note that before this function, there was this call:
prev_bare_repository = is_bare_repository()
expanding the right hand side:
= is_bare_repository_cfg && !get_git_work_tree()
= is_bare_repository_cfg && !work_tree
note that the last simplification above is valid because nothing
calls repo_init() or set_git_work_tree() between any of the
relevant calls in the code, and thus the !get_git_work_tree()
calls will return the same result each time. So, what we are
interested in computing is the right hand side of the line of
code just above this comment:
prev_bare_repository || !work_tree
= is_bare_repository_cfg && !work_tree || !work_tree
= !work_tree
because "A && !B || !B == !B" for all boolean values of A & B."
Therefore, remove the TODO comment and remove prev_bare_repository
variable. Also, update relevant testcases and remove one redundant
testcase.

When no subcommand is specified to "reflog", we assume "show" [1]:
$ git reflog -h
usage: git reflog [show] [<log-options>] [<ref>]
...
This implicit "show" is not being completed correctly:
$ git checkout -b default
$ git reflog def<TAB><TAB>
... no completion options ...
The expected result is:
$ git reflog default
This happens because we're completing references after seeing a valid
subcommand in the command line. This prevents the implicit "show" from
working properly, but also introduces a new problem: it keeps offering
subcommand options when the subcommand is implicit:
$ git checkout -b explore
$ git reflog default ex<TAB>
...
$ git reflog default expire
The expected result is:
$ git reflog default explore
To fix this, complete references even if no subcommand is present, or in
other words when the subcommand is implicit "show".
Also, only include completion options for subcommands when completing
the right position in the command line.

What -n actually does in addition to its documented behavior is
ignoring of configuration variable clean.requireForce, that makes
sense provided -n prevents files removal anyway.
So, first, document this in the manual, and then modify implementation
to make this more explicit in the code.
Improved implementation also stops to share single internal variable
'force' between command-line -f option and configuration variable
clean.requireForce, resulting in more clear logic.
Two error messages with slightly different text depending on if
clean.requireForce was explicitly set or not, are merged into a single
one.
The resulting error message now does not mention -n as well, as it
neither matches intended clean.requireForce usage nor reflects
clarified implementation.

TEST_CTYPE_FUNC defines a function for testing a character classifier,

Avoid the need to define a class-specific function by letting

When "git repack" repacks promisor objects, it starts a pack-objects
subprocess and uses xwrite() to send object names over the pipe to
it, but without any error checking. An I/O error or short write
(even though a short write is unlikely for such a small amount of
data) can result in a packfile that lacks certain objects we wanted
to put in there, leading to a silent repository corruption.

risks, check errors from it, and abort if we see a failure.

This is another preparatory refactor to unify the trailer formatters.
For background, note that the "trailers" string array is the
`char **trailers` member in `struct trailer_info` and that the
trailer_item objects are the elements of the `struct list_head *head`
linked list.
Currently trailer_info_get() only populates `char **trailers`. And
parse_trailers() first calls trailer_info_get() so that it can use the
`char **trailers` to populate a list of `struct trailer_item` objects
Instead of calling trailer_info_get() directly from
format_trailers_from_commit(), make it call parse_trailers() instead
because parse_trailers() already calls trailer_info_get().
This change is a NOP because format_trailer_info() (which
format_trailers_from_commit() wraps around) only looks at the "trailers"
string array, not the trailer_item objects which parse_trailers()
populates. For now we do need to create a dummy
LIST_HEAD(trailer_objects);
because parse_trailers() expects it in its signature.
In a future patch, we'll change format_trailer_info() to use the parsed
trailer_item objects (trailer_objects) instead of the `char **trailers`
array.

Several helper functions that are called by interpret_trailers() remain

Declare them in <trailer.h> so that interpret_trailers() (now in

user.
This enriches <trailer.h> with a more granular API, which can then be

too many things to be able to be easily unit-tested).

struct list_head *trailers, FILE *outfile);
void format_trailers_from_commit(struct strbuf *out, const char *msg,
const struct process_trailer_options *opts);
and although they are similar enough (even taking the same
process_trailer_options struct pointer) they are used quite differently.
One might intuitively think that format_trailers_from_commit() builds on
top of format_trailers(), but this is not the case. Instead
format_trailers_from_commit() calls format_trailer_info() and
format_trailers() is never called in that codepath.
This is a preparatory refactor to help us deprecate format_trailers() in
favor of format_trailer_info() (at which point we can rename the latter
to the former). When the deprecation is complete, both
format_trailers_from_commit(), and the interpret-trailers builtin will
be able to call into the same helper function (instead of
format_trailers() and format_trailer_info(), respectively). Unifying the
formatters is desirable because it simplifies the API.
Reorder parameters for format_trailers_from_commit() to prefer
const struct process_trailer_options *opts
as the first parameter, because these options are intimately tied to
formatting trailers. And take
struct strbuf *out
last, because it's an "out parameter" (something that the caller wants
to use as the output of this function).

The shortlog builtin was taught to use the trailer iterator interface in

The iterator always unfolds values and this has always been the case
since the time the iterator was first introduced in f0939a0eb1 (trailer:
add interface for iterating over commit trailers, 2020-09-27). Add a
comment line to remind readers of this behavior.
The fact that the iterator always unfolds values is important
(at least for shortlog) because unfolding allows it to recognize both
folded and unfolded versions of the same trailer for de-duplication.
Capture the existing behavior in a new test case to guard against
regressions in this area. This test case is based off of the existing
"shortlog de-duplicates trailers in a single commit" just above it. Now
if we were to remove the call to
unfold_value(&iter->val);

Note that even without this patch, we didn't have leaks or any other

In practice this doesn't really hurt anything, as we'd pass the client's

should try to follow the protocol spec, and tightening this up may catch
buggy or misbehaving clients more easily.

When `git fetch --update-shallow` needs to test for commit ancestry, it
can naturally run into a missing object (e.g. if it is a parent of a
shallow commit). For the purpose of `--update-shallow`, this needs to be
treated as if the child commit did not even have that parent, i.e. the
commit history needs to be clamped.
For all other scenarios, clamping the commit history is actually a bug,
as it would hide repository corruption (for an analysis regarding
shallow and partial clones, see the analysis further down).
Add a flag to optionally ask the function to ignore missing commits, as
`--update-shallow` needs it to, while detecting missing objects as a
repository corruption error by default.
This flag is needed, and cannot be replaced by `is_repository_shallow()`
to indicate that situation, because that function would return 0 in the
`--update-shallow` scenario: There is not actually a `shallow` file in
that scenario, as demonstrated e.g. by t5537.10 ("add new shallow root
with receive.updateshallow on") and t5538.4 ("add new shallow root with
receive.updateshallow on").
Note: shallow commits' parents are set to `NULL` internally already,
therefore there is no need to special-case shallow repositories here, as
the merge-base logic will not try to access parent commits of shallow
commits.
Likewise, partial clones aren't an issue either: If a commit is missing
during the revision walk in the merge-base logic, it is fetched via
`promisor_remote_get_direct()`. And not only the single missing commit
object: Due to the way the "promised" objects are fetched (in
`fetch_objects()` in `promisor-remote.c`, using `fetch
--filter=blob:none`), there is no actual way to fetch a single commit
object, as the remote side will pass that commit OID to `pack-objects
--revs [...]` which in turn passes it to `rev-list` which interprets
this as a commit _range_ instead of a single object. Therefore, in
partial clones (unless they are shallow in addition), all commits
reachable from a commit that is in the local object database are also
present in that local database.

When serving a v2 capabilities request, we call upload_pack_advertise()
to tell us the set of features we can advertise to the client. That
involves looking at various config options, all of which need to be kept
in sync with the rules we use in upload_pack_config to set flags like
allow_filter, allow_sideband_all, and so on. If these two pieces of code
get out of sync then we may refuse to respect a capability we
advertised, or vice versa accept one that we should not.
Instead, let's call the same config helper that we'll use for processing
the actual client request, and then just pick the values out of the
resulting struct. This is only a little bit shorter than the current
code, but we don't repeat any policy logic (e.g., we don't have to worry
about the magic sideband-all environment variable here anymore).
And this reveals a gap in the existing code: there is no struct flag for
the packfile-uris capability (we accept it even if it is not advertised,
which we should not). We'll leave the advertisement code for now and
deal with it in the next patch.

We read uploadpack.allowsidebandall to set a matching flag in our
upload_pack_data struct. But for our tests, we also respect
GIT_TEST_SIDEBAND_ALL from the environment, and anybody looking at the
flag in the struct needs to remember to check both. There's only one
such piece of code now, but we're about to add another.
So let's have the config step actually fold the environment value into
the struct, letting the rest of the code use the flag in the obvious
way.
