Srinidhi Kaushik 3b990aa645 push: parse and set flag for "--force-if-includes"
The previous commit added the necessary machinery to implement the
"--force-if-includes" protection, when "--force-with-lease" is used
without giving exact object the remote still ought to have. Surface
the feature by adding a command line option and a configuration
variable to enable it.

 - Add a flag: "TRANSPORT_PUSH_FORCE_IF_INCLUDES" to indicate that the
   new option was passed from the command line of via configuration
   settings; update command line and configuration parsers to set the
   new flag accordingly.

 - Introduce a new configuration option "push.useForceIfIncludes", which
   is equivalent to setting "--force-if-includes" in the command line.

 - Update "remote-curl" to recognize and pass this option to "send-pack"
   when enabled.

 - Update "advise" to catch the reject reason "REJECT_REF_NEEDS_UPDATE",
   set when the ref status is "REF_STATUS_REJECT_REMOTE_UPDATED" and
   (optionally) print a help message when the push fails.

 - The new option is a "no-op" in the following scenarios:
    * When used without "--force-with-lease".
    * When used with "--force-with-lease", and if the expected commit
      on the remote side is specified as an argument.

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). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://lore.kernel.org/git/, http://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.

  • 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
