René Scharfe 26d4c51d36 reflog: fix expire --single-worktree
33d7bdd645 (builtin/reflog.c: use parse-options api for expire, delete
subcommands, 2022-01-06) broke the option --single-worktree of git
reflog expire and added a non-printable short flag for it, presumably by
accident.  While before it set the variable "all_worktrees" to 0, now it
sets it to 1, its default value.  --no-single-worktree is required now
to set it to 0.

Fix it by replacing the variable with one that has the opposite meaning,
to avoid the negation and its potential for confusion.  The new variable
"single_worktree" directly captures whether --single-worktree was given.

Also remove the unprintable short flag SOH (start of heading) because it
is undocumented, hard to use and is likely to have been added by mistake
in connection with the negation bug above.

René Scharfe f7c1b23819 am, rebase: fix arghelp syntax of --empty
Use parentheses and pipes to present alternatives in the argument help
for the --empty options of git am and git rebase, like in the rest of
the documentation.

While at it remove a stray use of the enum empty_action value
STOP_ON_EMPTY_COMMIT to indicate that no short option is present.
While it has a value of 0 and thus there is no user-visible change,
that enum is not meant to hold short option characters.  Hard-code 0,
like we do for other options without a short option.

René Scharfe e5cf20e092 am: simplify --show-current-patch handling
Let the parse-options code detect and handle the use of options that are
incompatible with --show-current-patch.  This requires exposing the
distinction between the "raw" and "diff" sub-modes.  Do that by
splitting the mode RESUME_SHOW_PATCH into RESUME_SHOW_PATCH_RAW and
RESUME_SHOW_PATCH_DIFF and stop tracking sub-modes in a separate struct.

The result is a simpler callback function and more precise error
messages.  The original reports a spurious argument or a NULL pointer:

   $ git am --show-current-patch --show-current-patch=diff
   error: options '--show-current-patch=diff' and '--show-current-patch=raw' cannot be used together
   $ git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch
   error: options '--show-current-patch=(null)' and '--show-current-patch=diff' cannot be used together

With this patch we get the more precise:

   $ git am --show-current-patch --show-current-patch=diff
   error: --show-current-patch=diff is incompatible with --show-current-patch
   $ git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch
   error: --show-current-patch is incompatible with --show-current-patch=diff

René Scharfe 0025dde775 parse-options: make CMDMODE errors more precise
Only a single PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE option can be specified for the same
variable at the same time.  This is enforced by get_value(), but the
error messages are imprecise in three ways:

1. If a non-PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE option changes the value variable of a
PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE option then an ominously vague message is shown:

   $ t/helper/test-tool parse-options --set23 --mode1
   error: option `mode1' : incompatible with something else

Worse: If the order of options is reversed then no error is reported at
all:

   $ t/helper/test-tool parse-options --mode1 --set23
   boolean: 0
   integer: 23
   magnitude: 0
   timestamp: 0
   string: (not set)
   abbrev: 7
   verbose: -1
   quiet: 0
   dry run: no
   file: (not set)

Fortunately this can currently only happen in the test helper; actual
Git commands don't share the same variable for the value of options with
and without the flag PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE.

2. If there are multiple options with the same value (synonyms), then
the one that is defined first is shown rather than the one actually
given on the command line, which is confusing:

   $ git am --resolved --quit
   error: option `quit' is incompatible with --continue

3. Arguments of PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE options are not handled by the
parse-option machinery.  This is left to the callback function.  We
currently only have a single affected option, --show-current-patch of
git am.  Errors for it can show an argument that was not actually given
on the command line:

   $ git am --show-current-patch --show-current-patch=diff
   error: options '--show-current-patch=diff' and '--show-current-patch=raw' cannot be used together

The options --show-current-patch and --show-current-patch=raw are
synonyms, but the error accuses the user of input they did not actually
made.  Or it can awkwardly print a NULL pointer:

   $ git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch
   error: options '--show-current-patch=(null)' and '--show-current-patch=diff' cannot be used together

The reasons for these shortcomings is that the current code checks
incompatibility only when encountering a PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE option at the
command line, and that it searches the previous incompatible option by
value.

Fix the first two points by checking all PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE variables
after parsing each option and by storing all relevant details if their
value changed.  Do that whether or not the changing options has the flag
PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE set.  Report an incompatibility only if two options
change the variable to different values and at least one of them is a
PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE option.  This changes the output of the first three
examples above to:

   $ t/helper/test-tool parse-options --set23 --mode1
   error: --mode1 is incompatible with --set23
   $ t/helper/test-tool parse-options --mode1 --set23
   error: --set23 is incompatible with --mode1
   $ git am --resolved --quit
   error: --quit is incompatible with --resolved

Store the argument of PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE options of type OPTION_CALLBACK
as well to allow taking over the responsibility for compatibility
checking from the callback function.  The next patch will use this
capability to fix the messages for git am --show-current-patch.

Use a linked list for storing the PARSE_OPT_CMDMODE variables.  This
somewhat outdated data structure is simple and suffices, as the number
of elements per command is currently only zero or one.  We do support
multiple different command modes variables per command, but I don't
expect that we'd ever use a significant number of them.  Once we do we
can switch to a hashmap.

Since we no longer need to search the conflicting option, the all_opts
parameter of get_value() is no longer used.  Remove it.

Extend the tests to check for both conflicting option names, but don't
insist on a particular order.

Michael Strawbridge 0d8647034e send-email: move validation code below process_address_list
Move validation logic below processing of email address lists so that
email validation gets the proper email addresses.  As a side effect,
some initialization needed to be moved down.  In order for validation
and the actual email sending to have the same initial state, the
initialized variables that get modified by pre_process_file are
encapsulated in a new function.

This fixes email address validation errors when the optional
perl module Email::Valid is installed and multiple addresses are passed
in on a single to/cc argument like --to=foo@example.com,bar@example.com.
A new test was added to t9001 to expose failures with this case in the
future.

Javier Mora 3f02785de9 doc/git-bisect: clarify `git bisect run` syntax
The description of the `git bisect run` command syntax at the beginning
of the manpage is `git bisect run <cmd>...`, which isn't quite clear
about what `<cmd>` is or what the `...` mean; one could think that it is
the whole (quoted) command line with all arguments in a single string,
or that it supports multiple commands, or that it doesn't accept
commands with arguments at all.

Change to `git bisect run <cmd> [<arg>...]` to clarify the syntax,
in both the manpage and the `git bisect -h` command output.

Additionally, change `--term-{new,bad}` et al to `--term-(new|bad)`
for consistency with the synopsis syntax conventions.

imply_merge().

enum rebase_type had more values until commit a74b35081c ("rebase: drop

Jeff King 3ec6167567 send-email: handle to/cc/bcc from --compose message
If the user writes a message via --compose, send-email will pick up
various headers like "From", "Subject", etc and use them for other
patches as if they were specified on the command-line. But we don't
handle "To", "Cc", or "Bcc" this way; we just tell the user "those
aren't interpeted yet" and ignore them.

But it seems like an obvious thing to want, especially as the same
feature exists when the cover letter is generated separately by
format-patch. There it is gated behind the --to-cover option, but I
don't think we'd need the same control here; since we generate the
--compose template ourselves based on the existing input, if the user
leaves the lines unchanged then the behavior remains the same.

So let's fill in the implementation; like those other headers we already
handle, we just need to assign to the initial_* variables. The only
difference in this case is that they are arrays, so we'll feed them
through parse_address_line() to split them (just like we would when
reading a single string via prompting).

Jeff King 637e8944a1 Revert "send-email: extract email-parsing code into a subroutine"
This reverts commit b6049542b9.

Prior to that commit, we read the results of the user editing the
"--compose" message in a loop, picking out parts we cared about, and
streaming the result out to a ".final" file. That commit split the
reading/interpreting into two phases; we'd now read into a hash, and
then pick things out of the hash.

The goal was making the code more readable. And in some ways it did,
because the ugly regexes are confined to the reading phase. But it also
introduced several bugs, because now the two phases need to match each
other. In particular:

  - we pick out headers like "Subject: foo" with a case-insensitive
    regex, and then use the user-provided header name as the key in a
    case-sensitive hash. So if the user wrote "subject: foo", we'd no
    longer recognize it as a subject.

  - the namespace for the hash keys conflates header names with meta
    information like "body". If you put "body: foo" in your message, it
    would be misinterpreted as the actual message body (nobody is likely
    to do that in practice, but it seems like an unnecessary danger).

  - the handling for to/cc/bcc is totally broken. The behavior before
    that commit is to recognize and skip those headers, with a note to
    the user that they are not yet handled. Not great, but OK. But
    after the patch, the reading side now splits the addresses into a
    perl array-ref. But the interpreting side doesn't handle this at
    all, and blindly prints the stringified array-ref value. This leads
    to garbage like:

      (mbox) Adding to: ARRAY (0x555b4345c428) from line 'To: ARRAY(0x555b4345c428)'
      error: unable to extract a valid address from: ARRAY (0x555b4345c428)
      What to do with this address? ([q]uit|[d]rop|[e]dit):

    Probably not a huge deal, since nobody should even try to use those
    headers in the first place (since they were not implemented). But
    the new behavior is worse, and indicative of the sorts of problems
    that come from having the two layers.

The revert had a few conflicts, due to later work in this area from
15dc3b9161 (send-email: rename variable for clarity, 2018-03-04) and
d11c943c78 (send-email: support separate Reply-To address, 2018-03-04).
I've ported the changes from those commits over as part of the conflict
resolution.

The new tests show the bugs. Note the use of GIT_SEND_EMAIL_NOTTY in the
second one. Without it, the test is happy to reach outside the test
harness to the developer's actual terminal (when run with the buggy
state before this patch).

Jeff King e0c7e2c326 doc/send-email: mention handling of "reply-to" with --compose
The documentation for git-send-email lists the headers handled specially
by --compose in a way that implies that this is the complete set of
headers that are special. But one more was added by d11c943c78
(send-email: support separate Reply-To address, 2018-03-04) and never
documented.

Let's add it, and reword the documentation slightly to avoid having to
specify the list of headers twice (as it is growing and will continue to
do so as we add new features).

If you read the code, you may notice that we also handle MIME-Version
specially, in that we'll avoid over-writing user-provided MIME headers.
I don't think this is worth mentioning, as it's what you'd expect to
happen (as opposed to the other headers, which are picked up to be used
in later emails). And certainly this feature existed when the
documentation was expanded in 01d3861217 (git-send-email.txt: describe
--compose better, 2009-03-16), and we chose not to mention it then.

Kristoffer Haugsbakk b1688ea02d grep: die gracefully when outside repository
Die gracefully when `git grep --no-index` is run outside of a Git
repository and the path is outside the directory tree.

If you are not in a Git repository and say:

    git grep --no-index search ..

You trigger a `BUG`:

    BUG: environment.c:213: git environment hasn't been setup
    Aborted (core dumped)

Because `..` is a valid path which is treated as a pathspec. Then
`pathspec` figures out that it is not in the current directory tree. The
`BUG` is triggered when `pathspec` tries to advise the user about how the
path is not in the current (non-existing) repository.

Matthew McClain 10c89a02b0 git-p4 shouldn't attempt to store symlinks in LFS
git-p4.py would attempt to put a symlink in LFS if its file extension
matched git-p4.largeFileExtensions.

Git LFS doesn't store symlinks because smudge/clean filters don't handle
symlinks. They never get passed to the filter process nor the
smudge/clean filters, nor could that occur without a change to the
protocol or command-line interface. Unless Git learned how to send them
to the filters, Git LFS would have a hard time using them in any useful
way.

Git LFS's goal is to move large files out of the repository history, and
symlinks are functionally limited to 4 KiB or a similar size on most
systems.

Dorcas AnonoLitunya 5abb758118 t7601: use "test_path_is_file" etc. instead of "test -f"
Some tests in t7601 use "test -f" and "test ! -f" to see if a path
exists or is missing.

Use test_path_is_file and test_path_is_missing helper functions to
clarify these tests a bit better. This especially matters for the
"missing" case because "test ! -f F" will be happy if "F" exists as a
directory, but the intent of the test is that "F" should not exist, even
as a directory. The updated code expresses this better.

Junio C Hamano 14d569b1a7 am: align placeholder for --whitespace option with apply
`git am` passes the value given to its `--whitespace` option through
to the underlying `git apply`, and the value is called <action> over
there.  Fix the documentation for the command that calls the value
<option> to say <action> instead.

Note that the option help given by `git am -h` already calls the
value <action>, so there is no need to make a matching change there.
