Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 9ce6000cb7 object-name.c: don't have GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE imply *_QUIETLY
Stop having GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE imply GET_OID_QUIETLY in
get_oid_with_context_1().

The *_DIE flag was added in 33bd598c39 (sha1_name.c: teach lookup
context to get_sha1_with_context(), 2012-07-02), and then later
tweaked in 7243ffdd78 (get_sha1: avoid repeating ourselves via
ONLY_TO_DIE, 2016-09-26).

Everything in that commit makes sense, but only for callers that
expect to fail in an initial call to get_oid_with_context_1(), e.g. as
"git show 0017" does via handle_revision_arg(), and then would like to
call get_oid_with_context_1() again via this
maybe_die_on_misspelt_object_name() function.

In the subsequent commit we'll add a new caller that expects to call
this only once, but who would still like to have all the error
messaging that GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE gives it, in addition to any
regular errors.

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.

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
