A range notation "A..B" means exactly the same thing as what "^A B"
means, i.e. the set of commits that are reachable from B but not
from A. But the internal representation after the revision parser
parsed these two notations are subtly different.
- "rev-list ^A B" leaves A and B in the revs->pending.objects[]
array, with the former marked as UNINTERESTING and the revision
traversal machinery propagates the mark to underlying commit
objects A^0 and B^0.
- "rev-list A..B" peels tags and leaves A^0 (marked as
UNINTERESTING) and B^0 in revs->pending.objects[] array before
the traversal machinery kicks in.
This difference usually does not matter, but starts to matter when
the --objects option is used. For example, we see this:
With the former invocation, the revision traversal machinery never
hears about the tag v1.8.4 (it only sees the result of peeling it,
i.e. the commit v1.8.4^0), and the tag itself does not appear in the
output. The latter does send the tag object itself to the output.
Make the range notation keep the unpeeled objects and feed them to
the traversal machinery to fix this inconsistency.
Our default_remote_name starts at "origin", but may be
overridden by the config file. In the former case, we
allocate a new string, but in the latter case, we point to
the remote name in an existing "struct branch".
This gives the variable inconsistent free() semantics (we
are sometimes responsible for freeing the string and
sometimes pointing to somebody else's storage), and causes a
small leak when the allocated string is overridden by
config.
We can fix both by simply dropping the extra copy and
pointing to the string literal.

We assume the name starts the line and runs until the first
"<". That starts the email address, which runs until the
first ">". Everything after that is assumed to be the
timestamp.
This works fine in the normal case, but is easily broken by
corrupted ident lines that contain an extra ">". Some
examples seen in the wild are:
Currently each of these produces some email address (which
is not necessarily the one the user intended) and end up
with a NULL date (which is generally interpreted as the
epoch by "git log" and friends).
But in each case we could get the correct timestamp simply
by parsing from the right-hand side, looking backwards for
the final ">", and then reading the timestamp from there.
In general, it's a losing battle to try to automatically
guess what the user meant with their broken crud. But this
particular workaround is probably worth doing. One, it's
dirt simple, and can't impact non-broken cases. Two, it
doesn't catch a single breakage we've seen, but rather a
large class of errors (i.e., any breakage inside the email
angle brackets may affect the email, but won't spill over
into the timestamp parsing). And three, the timestamp is
arguably more valuable to get right, because it can affect
correctness (e.g., in --until cutoffs).
This patch implements the right-to-left scheme described
above. We adjust the tests in t4212, which generate a commit
with such a broken ident, and now gets the timestamp right.
We also add a test that fsck continues to detect the
breakage.
For reference, here are pointers to the breakages seen (as
numbered above):
remote-curl: rewrite base url from info/refs redirects
For efficiency and security reasons, an earlier commit in
this series taught http_get_* to re-write the base url based
on redirections we saw while making a specific request.
This commit wires that option into the info/refs request,
meaning that a redirect from
http://example.com/foo.git/info/refs
to
https://example.com/bar.git/info/refs
will behave as if "https://example.com/bar.git" had been
provided to git in the first place.
The tests bear some explanation. We introduce two new
hierearchies into the httpd test config:
1. Requests to /smart-redir-limited will work only for the
initial info/refs request, but not any subsequent
requests. As a result, we can confirm whether the
client is re-rooting its requests after the initial
contact, since otherwise it will fail (it will ask for
"repo.git/git-upload-pack", which is not redirected).
2. Requests to smart-redir-auth will redirect, and require
auth after the redirection. Since we are using the
redirected base for further requests, we also update
the credential struct, in order not to mislead the user
(or credential helpers) about which credential is
needed. We can therefore check the GIT_ASKPASS prompts
to make sure we are prompting for the new location.
Because we have neither multiple servers nor https
support in our test setup, we can only redirect between
paths, meaning we need to turn on
credential.useHttpPath to see the difference.

We use a strbuf to generate the string containing the remote
URL, but then detach it to a bare pointer. This makes it
harder to later manipulate the URL, as we have forgotten the
length (and the allocation semantics are not as clear).
Let's instead keep the strbuf around. As a bonus, this
eliminates a confusing double-use of the "buf" strbuf in
main(). Prior to this, it was used both for constructing the
url, and for reading commands from stdin.
The downside is that we have to update each call site to
refer to "url.buf" rather than just "url" when they want the
C string.

If a caller asks the http_get_* functions to go to a
particular URL and we end up elsewhere due to a redirect,
the effective_url field can tell us where we went.
It would be nice to remember this redirect and short-cut
further requests for two reasons:
1. It's more efficient. Otherwise we spend an extra http
round-trip to the server for each subsequent request,
just to get redirected.
2. If we end up with an http 401 and are going to ask for
credentials, it is to feed them to the redirect target.
If the redirect is an http->https upgrade, this means
our credentials may be provided on the http leg, just
to end up redirected to https. And if the redirect
crosses server boundaries, then curl will drop the
credentials entirely as it follows the redirect.
However, it, it is not enough to simply record the effective
URL we saw and use that for subsequent requests. We were
originally fed a "base" url like:
http://example.com/foo.git
and we want to figure out what the new base is, even though
the URLs we see may be:
Subsequent requests will not be for "info/refs", but for
other paths relative to the base. We must ask the caller to
pass in the original base, and we must pass the redirected
base back to the caller (so that it can generate more URLs
from it). Furthermore, we need to feed the new base to the
credential code, so that requests to credential helpers (or
to the user) match the URL we will be requesting.
This patch teaches http_request_reauth to do this munging.
Since it is the caller who cares about making more URLs, it
seems at first glance that callers could simply check
effective_url themselves and handle it. However, since we
need to update the credential struct before the second
re-auth request, we have to do it inside http_request_reauth.

When we ask curl to access a URL, it may follow one or more
redirects to reach the final location. We have no idea
this has happened, as curl takes care of the details and
simply returns the final content to us.
The final URL that we ended up with can be accessed via
CURLINFO_EFFECTIVE_URL. Let's make that optionally available
to callers of http_get_*, so that they can make further
decisions based on the redirection.

http: hoist credential request out of handle_curl_result
When we are handling a curl response code in http_request or
in the remote-curl RPC code, we use the handle_curl_result
helper to translate curl's response into an easy-to-use
code. When we see an HTTP 401, we do one of two things:
1. If we already had a filled-in credential, we mark it as
rejected, and then return HTTP_NOAUTH to indicate to
the caller that we failed.
2. If we didn't, then we ask for a new credential and tell
the caller HTTP_REAUTH to indicate that they may want
to try again.
Rejecting in the first case makes sense; it is the natural
result of the request we just made. However, prompting for
more credentials in the second step does not always make
sense. We do not know for sure that the caller is going to
make a second request, and nor are we sure that it will be
to the same URL. Logically, the prompt belongs not to the
request we just finished, but to the request we are (maybe)
about to make.
In practice, it is very hard to trigger any bad behavior.
Currently, if we make a second request, it will always be to
the same URL (even in the face of redirects, because curl
handles the redirects internally). And we almost always
retry on HTTP_REAUTH these days. The one exception is if we
are streaming a large RPC request to the server (e.g., a
pushed packfile), in which case we cannot restart. It's
extremely unlikely to see a 401 response at this stage,
though, as we would typically have seen it when we sent a
probe request, before streaming the data.
This patch drops the automatic prompt out of case 2, and
instead requires the caller to do it. This is a few extra
lines of code, and the bug it fixes is unlikely to come up
in practice. But it is conceptually cleaner, and paves the
way for better handling of credentials across redirects.

sparse: suppress some "using sizeof on a function" warnings
Sparse issues an "using sizeof on a function" warning for each
call to curl_easy_setopt() which sets an option that takes a
function pointer parameter. (currently 12 such warnings over 4
files.)
The warnings relate to the use of the "typecheck-gcc.h" header
file which adds a layer of type-checking macros to the curl
function invocations (for gcc >= 4.3 and !__cplusplus). As part
of the type-checking layer, 'sizeof' is applied to the function
parameter of curl_easy_setopt(). Note that, in the context of
sizeof, the function to function pointer conversion is not
performed and that sizeof(f) != sizeof(&f).
A simple solution, therefore, would be to replace the function
name in each such call to curl_easy_setopt() with an explicit
function pointer expression (i.e. replace f with &f).
However, the "typecheck-gcc.h" header file is only conditionally
included, in addition to the gcc and C++ checks mentioned above,
depending on the CURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK preprocessor variable.
In order to suppress the warnings, we use target-specific variable
assignments to add -DCURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK to SPARSE_FLAGS for
each file affected (http-push.c, http.c, http-walker.c and
remote-curl.c).

gitweb test: fix highlight test hang on Linux Mint
Linux Mint has an implementation of the highlight command (unrelated
to the one from http://www.andre-simon.de) that works as a simple
filter. The script uses 'sed' to add terminal colour escape codes
around text matching a regular expression. When t9500-*.sh attempts
to run "highlight --version", the script simply hangs waiting for
input. (See https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/815005).
The tool required by gitweb can be installed from the 'highlight'
package. Unfortunately, given the default $PATH, this leads to the
tool having lower precedence than the script.
In order to avoid hanging the test, add '</dev/null' to the command
line of the highlight invocation. Also, since the 'highlight' tool
requred by gitweb produces '--version' output (and the script does
not), saving the command output allows a simple check for the wrong
'highlight'.

Using a relative_path as git_dir first appears in v1.5.6-1-g044bbbc.
It will make git_dir shorter only if git_dir is inside work_tree,

relative_path function (commit v1.8.3-rc2-12-ge02ca72) changed that.
Always use relative_path as git_dir may bring troubles like

Because new relative_path is a combination of original relative_path
from path.c and original path_relative from quote.c, so in order to
restore the origin implementation, save the original relative_path
as remove_leading_path, and call it in setup.c.
Tvangeste found that the "relative_path" function could not work
properly on Windows if "in" and "prefix" have DOS drive prefix
(such as "C:/windows"). ($gmane/234434)
E.g., When execute: test-path-utils relative_path "C:/a/b" "D:/x/y",
should return "C:/a/b", but returns "../../C:/a/b", which is wrong.
So make relative_path honor DOS drive prefix, and add test cases

Documentation/git-svn: Promote the use of --prefix in docs + examples
Currently, the git-svn defaults to using an empty prefix, which ends
up placing the SVN-tracking refs directly in refs/remotes/*. This
placement runs counter to Git's convention of placing remote-tracking
branches in refs/remotes/$remote/*.
Furthermore, combining git-svn with "regular" Git remotes run the risk
of clobbering refs under refs/remotes (e.g. if you have a git remote
called "tags" with a "v1" branch, it will overlap with the git-svn's
tracking branch for the "v1" tag from Subversion.
Even though the git-svn refs stored in refs/remotes/* are not "proper"
remote-tracking branches (since they are not covered by a proper git
remote's refspec), they clearly represent a similar concept, and would
benefit from following the same convention.
For example, if git-svn tracks Subversion branch "foo" at
refs/remotes/foo, and you create a local branch refs/heads/foo to add
some commits to be pushed back to Subversion (using "git svn dcommit),
then it is clearly unhelpful of Git to throw
warning: refname 'foo' is ambiguous.
every time you checkout, rebase, or otherwise interact with the branch.
At this time, the user is better off using the --prefix=foo/ (the
trailing slash is important) to git svn init/clone, to cause the
SVN-tracking refs to be placed at refs/remotes/foo/* instead of
refs/remotes/*. This patch updates the documentation to encourage
use of --prefix.
This is also in preparation for changing the default value of --prefix
at some point in the future.

Over time, the http_get_strbuf function has grown several
optional parameters. We now have a bitfield with multiple
boolean options, as well as an optional strbuf for returning
the content-type of the response. And a future patch in this
series is going to add another strbuf option.
Treating these as separate arguments has a few downsides:
1. Most call sites need to add extra NULLs and 0s for the
options they aren't interested in.
2. The http_get_* functions are actually wrappers around
2 layers of low-level implementation functions. We have
to pass these options through individually.
3. The http_get_strbuf wrapper learned these options, but
nobody bothered to do so for http_get_file, even though
it is backed by the same function that does understand
the options.
Let's consolidate the options into a single struct. For the
common case of the default options, we'll allow callers to
simply pass a NULL for the options struct.
The resulting code is often a few lines longer, but it ends
up being easier to read (and to change as we add new
options, since we do not need to update each call site).

without file://, e.g. ../foo:bar/somewhere. But the check was a bit
sloppy.
Consider the url '[foo]:bar'. The '[]' unwrapping code will turn the
string to 'foo\0:bar'. In effect this new string is the same as
'foo/:bar' in the check "path < strchrnul(host, '/')", which mistakes
it for a local path (with '/' before the first ':') when it's actually
not.
So disable the check for '/' before ':' when the URL has been mangled
by '[]' unwrapping.

also makes it consistent with nearby code.

git-remote-mediawiki: bugfix for pages w/ >500 revisions
Mediawiki introduces a new API for queries w/ more than 500 results in
version 1.21. That change triggered an infinite loop while cloning a
mediawiki with such a page.
The latest API renamed and moved the "continuing" information in the
response, necessary to build the next query. The code failed to retrieve
that information but still detected that it was in a "continuing
query". As a result, it launched the same query over and over again.
If a "continuing" information is detected in the response (old or new),
the next query is updated accordingly. If not, we quit assuming it's not
a continuing query.

sample pre-commit hook: use --bool when retrieving config var
Currently if you set
[hooks]
allowNonAscii
(or allownonascii = 1, or = yes) in your .git/config then the sample
pre-commit misinterprets the value as "false" and rejects non-ASCII
filenames. Use "git config --bool" to get the usual nicer boolean
handling.

When running "fetch -q", a long silence while the sender side
computes the set of objects to send can be mistaken by proxies as
dropped connection. The server side has been taught to send a small
empty messages to keep the connection alive.

"git check-ignore" follows the same rule as "git add" and "git
status" in that the ignore/exclude mechanism does not take effect
on paths that are already tracked. With "--no-index" option, it
can be used to diagnose which paths that should have been ignored
have been mistakenly added to the index.
