The credential helper for libsecret (in contrib/) has been improved

After an error from lstat(), diff_populate_filespec() function
sometimes still went ahead and used invalid data in struct stat,
which has been fixed.
* ao/diff-populate-filespec-lstat-errorpath-fix:
diff: fix lstat() error handling in diff_populate_filespec()
Description of blame.{showroot,blankboundary,showemail,date}
configuration variables have been added to "git config --help".

"git check-ref-format --branch @{-1}" bit a "BUG()" when run
outside a repository for obvious reasons; clarify the documentation
and make sure we do not even try to expand the at-mark magic in
such a case, but still call the validation logic for branch names.
* jc/check-ref-format-oor:
check-ref-format doc: --branch validates and expands <branch>
check-ref-format --branch: strip refs/heads/ using skip_prefix
check-ref-format --branch: do not expand @{...} outside repository
A recent regression in "git rebase -i" that broke execution of git
commands from subdirectories via "exec" insn has been fixed.
* jk/rebase-i-exec-gitdir-fix:
sequencer: pass absolute GIT_DIR to exec commands
A broken access to object databases in recent update to "git grep
--recurse-submodules" has been fixed.
* bw/grep-recurse-submodules:
grep: take the read-lock when adding a submodule
"git status --ignored -u" did not stop at a working tree of a
separate project that is embedded in an ignored directory and
listed files in that other project, instead of just showing the
directory itself as ignored.
* js/submodule-in-excluded:
status: do not get confused by submodules in excluded directories
"git commit", after making a commit, did not check for errors when
asking on what branch it made the commit, which has been correted.
* ao/check-resolve-ref-unsafe-result:
commit: check result of resolve_ref_unsafe
Some codepaths did not check for errors when asking what branch the
HEAD points at, which have been fixed.
* jk/misc-resolve-ref-unsafe-fixes:
worktree: handle broken symrefs in find_shared_symref()
log: handle broken HEAD in decoration check
remote: handle broken symrefs
test-ref-store: avoid passing NULL to printf
Instead of using custom line comparison and hashing functions to
implement "moved lines" coloring in the diff output, use the pair
of these functions from lower-layer xdiff/ code.
* sb/diff-color-moved-use-xdl-recmatch:
diff.c: get rid of duplicate implementation
xdiff-interface: export comparing and hashing strings
The experimental "color moved lines differently in diff output"
feature was buggy around "ignore whitespace changes" edges, whihch
has been corrected.
* jk/diff-color-moved-fix:
diff: handle NULs in get_string_hash()
diff: fix whitespace-skipping with --color-moved
t4015: test the output of "diff --color-moved -b"
t4015: check "negative" case for "-w --color-moved"
t4015: refactor --color-moved whitespace test
"auto" as a value for the columnar output configuration ought to
judge "is the output consumed by humans?" with the same criteria as
"auto" for coloured output configuration, i.e. either the standard
output stream is going to tty, or a pager is in use. We forgot the
latter, which has been fixed.
* kd/auto-col-with-pager-fix:
column: do not include pager.c
column: show auto columns when pager is active
TravisCI build updates.
* sg/travis-fixes:
travis-ci: don't build Git for the static analysis job
travis-ci: fix running P4 and Git LFS tests in Linux build jobs
The set of paths output from "git status --ignored" was tied
closely with its "--untracked=<mode>" option, but now it can be
controlled more flexibly. Most notably, a directory that is
ignored because it is listed to be ignored in the ignore/exclude
mechanism can be handled differently from a directory that ends up
to be ignored only because all files in it are ignored.
* jm/status-ignored-files-list:
status: test ignored modes
status: document options to show matching ignored files
status: report matching ignored and normal untracked
status: add option to show ignored files differently
If an empty string is passed to link_alt_odb_entries(), our
loop finds no entries and we link nothing. But we still do
some preparatory work to normalize the object directory
path, even though we'll never look at the result. This
triggers in basically every git process, since we feed the
usually-empty ALTERNATE_DB_ENVIRONMENT to the function.
Let's detect early that there's nothing to do and return.
While we're at it, let's treat NULL the same as an empty
string as a favor to our callers. That saves
prepare_alt_odb() from having to cover this case.

The SubmittingPatches document is often cited by outside parties as an
example of good practices to follow, including logical, independent
commits; patch sign-offs; and sending patches to a mailing list.
Currently, people who want to cite a particular section tend to either
refer to it by name and let the interested party search through the
document to find it, or link to a given line number on GitHub and hope
the file doesn't change.
Instead, convert the document to AsciiDoc. Build it as part of the
technical documentation, since it is likely of interest to the same
group of people. Provide stable links to the sections which outside
parties are likely to want to link to. Make some minor structural
changes to organize it so that it can be formatted sanely.
Since the makefile needs a .txt extension in order to build with the
rest of the documentation, simply copy the file. Ignore the temporary
file so it doesn't get checked in accidentally, and remove it as part of
the clean process. Do this instead of renaming the file so that people
who have already linked to the documentation (who we're trying to help)
don't find their links broken. Avoid symlinking since Windows will not
like that.
This allows us to render the document as part of the website for the
benefit of others who wish to link to it as well as providing a more
nicely formatted display for our community and potential contributors.

It was possible to invoke "git bisect run" without any command.
This considers all commits as good commits since "$@"'s return
value for empty $@ is 0.
This is most probably not what a user wants (otherwise she would
invoke "git bisect run true"), so not providing a command now
results in an error.

If you have a pcre1 library which is compiled with JIT enabled then
PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE will be defined whether or not the
NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT configuration is set.
This means that we enable JIT functionality when calling pcre_study
even if NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT has been explicitly set and we just use plain
pcre_exec later.
Fix this by using own macro (GIT_PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE) which we set to
PCRE_STUDY_JIT_COMPILE only if NO_LIBPCRE1_JIT is not set and define to
0 otherwise, as before.

The test for '--abbrev' in t4201-shortlog.sh assumes that the commits
generated in the test can always be uniquely abbreviated to 5 hex digits
but this is not always the case. If you were unlucky and happened to run
the test at (say) Thu Jun 22 03:04:49 2017 +0000, you would find that
the first commit generated would collide with a tree object created
later in the same test.
This can be simulated in the version of t4201-shortlog.sh prior to this
commit by setting GIT_COMMITTER_DATE and GIT_AUTHOR_DATE to 1498100689
after sourcing test-lib.sh.
Change the test to test --abbrev=35 instead of --abbrev=5 to almost
completely avoid the possibility of a partial collision and add a call
to test_tick in the setup to make the test repeatable (the latter alone
is sufficient to make it robust enough).

fuzzy_matchlines() uses a pointers to the first and last characters of
two lines to keep track while matching them. This makes it impossible
to deal with empty strings. It accesses characters before the start of
empty lines. It can also access characters after the end when checking
for trailing whitespace in the main loop.
Avoid that by using pointers to the first character and the one *after*
the last one. This is well-defined as long as the latter is not
dereferenced. Basically rewrite the function based on that premise; it
becomes much simpler as a result. There is no need to check for
leading whitespace outside of the main loop anymore.

The examples and common practice for adding markers such as "RFC" or
"v2" to the subject of patch emails is to have them within the same
brackets as the "PATCH" text, not after the closing bracket. Further,
the practice of `git format-patch` and the like, as well as what appears
to be the more common pratice on the mailing list, is to use "[RFC
PATCH]", not "[PATCH/RFC]".
Update the SubmittingPatches article to match and to reference the
`format-patch` helper arguments, and also make some minor text
clarifications in the area.

ba1b9cac ("fsmonitor: delay updating state until after split index
is merged", 2017-10-27) resolved the problem of the fsmonitor data
being applied to the non-base index when reading; however, a similar
problem exists when writing the index. Specifically, writing of the
fsmonitor extension happens only after the work to split the index
has been applied -- as such, the information in the index is only
for the non-"base" index, and thus the extension information
contains only partial data.
When saving, compute the ewah bitmap before the index is split, and
store it in the fsmonitor_dirty field, mirroring the behavior that
occurred during reading. fsmonitor_dirty is kept from being leaked by
being freed when the extension data is written -- which always happens
precisely once, no matter the split index configuration.

Though the process has chdir'd to the root of the working tree, the
PWD environment variable is only guaranteed to be updated accordingly
if a shell is involved -- which is not guaranteed to be the case.
That is, if `/usr/bin/perl` is a binary, $ENV{PWD} is unchanged from
whatever spawned `git` -- if `/usr/bin/perl` is a trivial shell
wrapper to the real `perl`, `$ENV{PWD}` will have been updated to the
root of the working copy.
Update to read from the Cwd module using the `getcwd` syscall, not the
PWD environment variable. The Cygwin case is left unchanged, as it
necessarily _does_ go through a shell.
