Since c9d961647 (i18n: add--interactive: mark
edit_hunk_manually message for translation, 2016-12-14),
when the user asks to edit a hunk manually, we respect
core.commentChar in generating the edit instructions.
However, when we then strip out comment lines, we use a
simple regex like:
/^$commentChar/
If your chosen comment character is a regex metacharacter,
then that will behave in a confusing manner ("$", for
instance, would only eliminate blank lines, not actual
comment lines).
We can fix that by telling perl not to respect
metacharacters.

The prompt_yesno function loops indefinitely waiting for a
"y" or "n" response. But it doesn't handle EOF, meaning
that we can end up in an infinite loop of reading EOF from
stdin. One way to simulate that is with:
echo e | GIT_EDITOR='echo corrupt >' git add -p
Let's break out of the loop and propagate the undef to the
caller. Without modifying the callers that effectively turns
it into a "no" response. This is reasonable for both of the
current callers, and it leaves room for any future caller to
check for undef explicitly.

alias: use the early config machinery to expand aliases
Instead of discovering the .git/ directory, reading the config and then
trying to painstakingly reset all the global state if we did not find a
matching alias, let's use the early config machinery instead.
It may look like unnecessary work to discover the .git/ directory in the
early config machinery and then call setup_git_directory_gently() in the
case of a shell alias, repeating the very same discovery *again*.
However, we have to do this as the early config machinery takes pains
*not* to touch any global state, while shell aliases expect a possibly
changed working directory and at least the GIT_PREFIX and GIT_DIR
variables to be set.
This change also fixes a known issue where Git tried to read the pager
config from an incorrect path in a subdirectory of a Git worktree if an
alias expanded to a shell command.

t7006: demonstrate a problem with aliases in subdirectories
When expanding aliases, the git_dir is set during the alias expansion
(by virtue of running setup_git_directory_gently()).
This git_dir may be relative to the current working directory, and
indeed often is simply ".git/".
When the alias expands to a shell command, we restore the original
working directory, though, yet we do not reset git_dir.
As a consequence, subsequent read_early_config() runs will mistake the
git_dir to be populated properly and not find the correct config.

help: use early config when autocorrecting aliases
Git has this feature which suggests similar commands (including aliases)
in case the user specified an unknown command.
This feature currently relies on a side effect of the way we expand
aliases right now: when a command is not a builtin, we use the regular
config machinery (meaning: discovering the .git/ directory and
initializing global state such as the config cache) to see whether the
command refers to an alias.
However, we will change the way aliases are expanded in the next
commits, to use the early config instead. That means that the
autocorrect feature can no longer discover the available aliases by
looking at the config cache (because it has not yet been initialized).
So let's just use the early config machinery instead.
This is slightly less performant than the previous way, as the early
config is used *twice*: once to see whether the command refers to an
alias, and then to see what aliases are most similar. However, this is
hardly a performance-critical code path, so performance is less important
here.

When get_value() parses a key/value pair, it is possible that the line
number is decreased (because the \n has been consumed already) before the
key/value pair is passed to the callback function, to allow for the
correct line to be attributed in case of an error.
However, when git_parse_source() asks get_value() to parse the key/value
pair, the error reporting is performed *after* get_value() returns.
Which means that we have to be careful not to increase the line number
in get_value() after the callback function returned an error.

There is another early return path in that function, when

doc: do not use `rm .git/index` when normalizing line endings
When illustrating how to normalize the line endings, the
documentation in gitattributes tells the user to `rm .git/index`.
This is incorrect for two reasons:
- Users shouldn't be instructed to mess around with the internal
implementation of Git using raw file system tools like `rm`.
- Within a submodule or an additional working tree `.git` is just a
file containing a `gitdir: <path>` pointer into the real `.git`
directory. Therefore `rm .git/index` does not work.
The purpose of the `rm .git/index` instruction is to remove all entries
from the index without touching the working tree. The way to do this
with Git is to use `read-tree --empty`.

git-stash: fix pushing stash with pathspec from subdir

correctly resolve the pathspec. Add a test to catch future breakage of

t5313: make extended-table test more deterministic
Commit a1283866b (t5313: test bounds-checks of
corrupted/malicious pack/idx files, 2016-02-25) added a test
that requires our corrupted pack index to have two objects.
The entry for the first one remains untouched, but we
corrupt the entry for second one. Since the index stores the
entries in sha1-sorted order, this means that the test must
make sure that the sha1 of the object we expect to be
corrupted ("$object") sorts after the other placeholder
object.
That commit used the HEAD commit as the placeholder, but the
script never calls test_tick. That means that the commit
object (and thus its sha1) depends on the timestamp when the
test script is run. This usually works in practice, because
the sha1 of $object starts with "fff". The commit object
will sort after that only 1 in 4096 times, but when it does
the test will fail.
One obvious solution is to add the test_tick call to get a
deterministic commit sha1. But since we're relying on the
sort order for the test to function, let's make that very
explicit by just generating a second blob with a known sha1.

Merge branch 'ab/doc-replace-gmane-links' into maint
The Web interface to gmane news archive is long gone, even though
the articles are still accessible via NTTP. Replace the links with
ones to public-inbox.org. Because their message identification is
based on the actual message-id, it is likely that it will be easier
to migrate away from it if/when necessary.
* ab/doc-replace-gmane-links:
doc: replace more gmane links
doc: replace a couple of broken gmane links
When compiling the documentation, asciidoc thinks a backtick surrounded
by whitespace shouldn't be interpreted as marking the start or end of a
literal. In most cases, that's useful behaviour, but in the git-pull
documentation it means asciidoc is failing to correctly detect which
text should be monospaced and which shouldn't.
To avoid this, remove the extraneous spaces from the text to be
monospaced. It would also be possible to fix the formatting by
switching to asciidoc's ++ monospace format markers and still have the
space characters included in the monospace text, but the spaces aren't
necessary and not having them keeps the markup simpler.
Also include a minor grammar fix suggested by Jeff while we're changing
these lines.

When `git pull --rebase --autostash` in a dirty repository resulted in a
fast-forward, nothing was being autostashed and the pull failed. This
was due to a shortcut to avoid running rebase when we can fast-forward,
but autostash is ignored on that codepath.
Now we will only take the shortcut if autostash is not in effect.
Based on a few tests against the git.git repo, the shortcut does not
seem to give us significant performance benefits, on Linux at least.
Regardless, it is more important to be correct than to be fast.

send-email: Net::SMTP::starttls was introduced in v2.34
We cannot rely on the starttls method being present in Net::SMTP until c274b798e6881a941d941808c6d89966975cb8c8 (Merge branch 'ipv6_ssl' of
https://github.com/noxxi/perl-libnet into noxxi-ipv6_ssl, 2014-06-02),
which set the module version to 2.34.
This version was first shipped as part of perl in v5.21.5~169 (Update
libnet to CPAN version 3.01, 2014-10-10).
Noticed on an Ubuntu system with perl 5.18.2-2ubuntu1.1, which
provides Net::SMTP version 2.31. The error message is
Can't locate object method "starttls" via package "Net::SMTP" at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email line 1410.

`git rev-parse --short` is not a generic modifier but just a variant
of `--verify` and considers the given length only as a suggestion to
ensure uniqueness.

docs/config: mention protocol implications of url.insteadOf
If a URL rewrite switches the protocol to something
nonstandard (like "persistent-https" for "https"), the user
may be bitten by the fact that the default protocol
restrictions are different between the two. Let's drop a
note in insteadOf that points the user in the right
direction.
It would be nice if we could make this work out of the box,
but we can't without knowing the security implications of
the user's rewrite. Only the documentation for a particular
remote helper can advise one way or the other. Since we do
include the persistent-https helper in contrib/ (and since
it was the helper in the real-world case that inspired that
patch), let's also drop a note there.

We already have free_refspec(), a public function which does
the same thing as the static free_refspecs(). Let's just
keep one. There are two minor differences between the
functions:
1. free_refspecs() is a noop when the refspec argument is
NULL. This probably doesn't matter in practice. The
nr_refspec parameter would presumably be 0 in that
case, skipping the loop. And free(NULL) is explicitly
OK. But it doesn't hurt for us to port this extra
safety to free_refspec(), as one of the callers passes
a funny "i+1" count.
2. The order of arguments is reversed between the two
functions. This patch uses the already-public order of
free_refspec(), as it matches the argument order on the
parsing side.
