Patrick Steinhardt 1fc7ddf35b test-lib: unconditionally enable leak checking Over the last two releases we have plugged a couple hundred of memory leaks exposed by the Git test suite. With the preceding commits we have finally fixed the last leak exposed by our test suite, which means that we are now basically leak free wherever we have branch coverage. From hereon, the Git test suite should ideally stay free of memory leaks. Most importantly, any test suite that is being added should automatically be subject to the leak checker, and if that test does not pass it is a strong signal that the added code introduced new memory leaks and should not be accepted without further changes. Drop the infrastructure around TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK to reflect this new requirement. Like this, all test suites will be subject to the leak checker by default. This is being intentionally strict, but we still have an escape hatch: the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite. There is one known case in t5601 where the leak sanitizer itself is buggy, so adding this prereq in such cases is acceptable. Another acceptable situation is when a newly added test uncovers preexisting memory leaks: when fixing that memory leak would be sufficiently complicated it is fine to annotate and document the leak accordingly. But in any case, the burden is now on the patch author to explain why exactly they have to add the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite. The TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK annotations will be dropped in the next patch.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-<commandname>.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission and Documentation/CodingGuidelines).

Those wishing to help with error message, usage and informational message string translations (localization l10) should see po/README.md (a po file is a Portable Object file that holds the translations).

To subscribe to the list, send an email to git+subscribe@vger.kernel.org (see https://subspace.kernel.org/subscribing.html for details). The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, https://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
"global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
"goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
