Much of what is in gitweb.conf.txt has been pulled directly from the

The http_init function takes a "struct remote". Part of its
initialization procedure is to look at the remote's url and
grab some auth-related parameters. However, using the url
included in the remote is:
- wrong; the remote-curl helper may have a separate,
unrelated URL (e.g., from remote.*.pushurl). Looking at
the remote's configured url is incorrect.
- incomplete; http-fetch doesn't have a remote, so passes
NULL. So http_init never gets to see the URL we are
actually going to use.
- cumbersome; http-push has a similar problem to
http-fetch, but actually builds a fake remote just to
pass in the URL.
Instead, let's just add a separate URL parameter to
http_init, and all three callsites can pass in the
appropriate information.

When the git-daemon is asked about an inaccessible repository, it simply
hangs up the connection without saying anything further. This makes it
hard to distinguish between a repository we cannot access (e.g., due to
typo), and a service or network outage.
Instead, let's print an "ERR" line, which git clients understand since
v1.6.1 (2008-12-24).
Because there is a risk of leaking information about non-exported
repositories, by default all errors simply say "access denied or
repository not exported". Sites which don't have hidden repositories, or
don't care, can pass a flag to turn on more specific messages.

cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30) broke
the expansion of aliases.
This was caused by treating %config_path_settings, newly introduced in
said patch, like %config_bool_settings instead of like %config_settings.
Copy from %config_settings, making it more readable.
While at it add basic test for expansion of aliases, and for path
expansion, which would catch this error.
Nb. there were a few issues that were responsible for this error:
1. %config_bool_settings and %config_settings despite similar name have
different semantic.
%config_bool_settings values are arrays where the first element is
(reference to) the variable to set, and second element is default
value... which admittedly is a bit cryptic. More readable if more
verbose option would be to use hash reference, e.g.:
%config_settings values are either either reference to scalar variable
or reference to array. In second case it means that option (or config
option) is multi-valued. BTW. this is similar to what Getopt::Long does.
2. In cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30)
the setting "aliasesfile" was moved from %config_settings to newly
introduced %config_path_settings. But the loop that parses settings
from %config_path_settings was copy'n'pasted *wrongly* from
%config_bool_settings instead of from %config_settings.
It looks like cec5dae author cargo-culted this change...

downgrade "packfile cannot be accessed" errors to warnings
These can happen if another process simultaneously prunes a
pack. But that is not usually an error condition, because a
properly-running prune should have repacked the object into
a new pack. So we will notice that the pack has disappeared
unexpectedly, print a message, try other packs (possibly
after re-scanning the list of packs), and find it in the new
pack.

It's possible that while pack-objects is running, a
simultaneously running prune process might delete a pack
that we are interested in. Because we load the pack indices
early on, we know that the pack contains our item, but by
the time we try to open and map it, it is gone.
Since c715f78, we already protect against this in the normal
object access code path, but pack-objects accesses the packs
at a lower level. In the normal access path, we call
find_pack_entry, which will call find_pack_entry_one on each
pack index, which does the actual lookup. If it gets a hit,
we will actually open and verify the validity of the
matching packfile (using c715f78's is_pack_valid). If we
can't open it, we'll issue a warning and pretend that we
didn't find it, causing us to go on to the next pack (or on
to loose objects).
Furthermore, we will cache the descriptor to the opened
packfile. Which means that later, when we actually try to
access the object, we are likely to still have that packfile
opened, and won't care if it has been unlinked from the
filesystem.
Notice the "likely" above. If there is another pack access
in the interim, and we run out of descriptors, we could
close the pack. And then a later attempt to access the
closed pack could fail (we'll try to re-open it, of course,
but it may have been deleted). In practice, this doesn't
happen because we tend to look up items and then access them
immediately.
Pack-objects does not follow this code path. Instead, it
accesses the packs at a much lower level, using
find_pack_entry_one directly. This means we skip the
is_pack_valid check, and may end up with the name of a
packfile, but no open descriptor.
We can add the same is_pack_valid check here. Unfortunately,
the access patterns of pack-objects are not quite as nice
for keeping lookup and object access together. We look up
each object as we find out about it, and the only later when
writing the packfile do we necessarily access it. Which
means that the opened packfile may be closed in the interim.
In practice, however, adding this check still has value, for
three reasons.
1. If you have a reasonable number of packs and/or a
reasonable file descriptor limit, you can keep all of
your packs open simultaneously. If this is the case,
then the race is impossible to trigger.
2. Even if you can't keep all packs open at once, you
may end up keeping the deleted one open (i.e., you may
get lucky).
3. The race window is shortened. You may notice early that
the pack is gone, and not try to access it. Triggering
the problem without this check means deleting the pack
any time after we read the list of index files, but
before we access the looked-up objects. Triggering it
with this check means deleting the pack means deleting
the pack after we do a lookup (and successfully access
the packfile), but before we access the object. Which
is a smaller window.

Move most of the code from read_bundle_header() to parse_bundle_header()
that takes a file descriptor that is already opened for reading, and make
the former responsible only for opening the file and noticing errors.
As a logical consequence of this, is_bundle() helper function can be
implemented as a non-complaining variant of read_bundle_header() that
does not return an open file descriptor, and can be used to tighten
the check used to decide the use of bundle transport in transport_get()
function.
We wished that "git bundle" to eventually learn to read from a network
socket which is not seekable. The current code opens with fopen(), reads
the file halfway and run ftell(), and reopens the same file with open()
and seeks, to skip the header.
This patch by itself does not reach that goal yet, but I think it is a
right step in that direction.
You can't currently run git-pull or git-rebase from outside
of the work tree, even with GIT_WORK_TREE set, due to an
overeager require_work_tree function. Commit e2eb527
documents this problem and provides the infrastructure for a
fix, but left it to later commits to audit and update
individual scripts.
Changing these scripts to use require_work_tree_exists is
easy to verify. We immediately call cd_to_toplevel, anyway.
Therefore no matter which function we use, the state
afterwards is one of:
1. We have a work tree, and we are at the top level.
2. We don't have a work tree, and we have died.
The only catch is that we must also make sure no code that
ran before the cd_to_toplevel assumed that we were already
in the working tree.
In this case, we will only have included shell libraries and
called set_reflog_action, neither of which care about the
current working directory at all.

We should be able to ask for a config value both by its
canonical all-lowercase name (as git does internally), as
well as by random mixed-case (which will be canonicalized by
git-config for us).
Subsections are a tricky point, though. Since we have both
[section "Foo"]
and
[section.Foo]
you might want git-config to canonicalize the subsection or
not, depending on which you are expecting. But there's no
way to communicate this; git-config sees only the key, and
doesn't know which type of section name will be in the
config file.
So it must leave the subsection intact, and it is up to the
caller to provide a canonical version of the subsection if
they want to match the latter form.

refs.c: move dwim_ref()/dwim_log() from sha1_name.c
Both dwim_ref()/dwim_log() functions are intimately related to the ref
parsing rules defined in refs.c and better fits there. Move them together
with substitute_branch_name(), a file scope static helper function.
The commit message for c976d41 (git-branch: add options and tests for
branch renaming, 2006-11-28) mentions RENAME_REF but otherwise this is not
documented anywhere, and it does not appear in any of the tests.
Worse yet, the name of the actual file is "RENAMED-REF".
This was supposed to hold the commit object name at the tip of the branch
the most recent "branch -m/-M" renamed, but that is not necessary in order
to be able to recover from a mistake. Even when "branch -M A B" overwrites
an existing branch B, what is kept in RENAMED-REF is the commit at the tip
of the original branch A, not the commit B from the now-lost branch.
Fix is_gitfile() for files too small or larger than PATH_MAX to be a gitfile
The logic to check whether a file is a gitfile used the heuristics that
a gitfile cannot be larger than PATH_MAX or smaller than 10 bytes (as
its contents is "gitdir: " followed by a path) and returned early.
But it returned with a wrong value. It should have said "this cannot
possibly be a gitfile" by returning 0, but it returned 1 instead. Our
test cases do not cover this, as the bundle files produced are smaller
than PATH_MAX, except on Windows.
While at it, fix the faulty logic that the path stored in a gitfile cannot
be larger than PATH_MAX-sizeof("gitdir: ").

attr.c: respect core.ignorecase when matching attribute patterns
When core.ignorecase is true, the file globs configured in the
.gitattributes file should be matched case-insensitively against the paths
in the working directory. Let's do so.
Plus, add some tests.
The last set of tests is performed only on a case-insensitive filesystem.
Those tests make sure that git handles the case where the .gitignore file
resides in a subdirectory and the user supplies a path that does not match
the case in the filesystem. In that case^H^H^H^Hsituation, part of the
path supplied by the user is effectively interpreted case-insensitively,
and part of it is dependent on the setting of core.ignorecase. git will
currently only match the portion of the path below the directory holding
the .gitignore file according to the setting of core.ignorecase.
This is also partly future-proofing. Currently, git builds the attr stack
based on the path supplied by the user, so we don't have to do anything
special (like use strcmp_icase) to handle the parts of that path that don't
match the filesystem with respect to case. If git instead built the attr
stack by scanning the repository, then the paths in the origin field would
not necessarily match the paths supplied by the user. If someone makes a
change like that in the future, these tests will notice.
