revert: introduce --abort to cancel a failed cherry-pick

After running some ill-advised command like "git cherry-pick
HEAD..linux-next", the bewildered novice may want to return to more
familiar territory. Introduce a "git cherry-pick --abort" command
that rolls back the entire cherry-pick sequence and places the
repository back on solid ground.

Just like "git merge --abort", this internally uses "git reset
--merge", so local changes not involved in the conflict resolution are
preserved.

revert: write REVERT_HEAD pseudoref during conflicted revert

When conflicts are encountered while reverting a commit, it can be
handy to have the name of that commit easily available. For example,
to produce a copy of the patch to refer to while resolving conflicts:

$ git revert 2eceb2a8
error: could not revert 2eceb2a8... awesome, buggy feature
$ git show -R REVERT_HEAD >the-patch
$ edit $(git diff --name-only)

Set a REVERT_HEAD pseudoref when "git revert" does not make a commit,
for cases like this. This also makes it possible for scripts to
distinguish between a revert that encountered conflicts and other
sources of an unmerged index.

After successfully committing, resetting with "git reset", or moving
to another commit with "git checkout" or "git reset", the pseudoref is
no longer useful, so remove it.

revert: improve error message for cherry-pick during cherry-pick

In the spirit of v1.6.3.3~3^2 (refuse to merge during a merge,
2009-07-01), "git cherry-pick" refuses to start a new cherry-pick when
in the middle of an existing conflicted cherry-pick in the following
sequence:

1. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
2. resolve conflicts
3. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin (instead of "git cherry-pick
--continue", by mistake)

Good. However, the error message on attempting step 3 is more
convoluted than necessary:

$ git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
error: .git/sequencer already exists.
error: A cherry-pick or revert is in progress.
hint: Use --continue to continue the operation
hint: or --quit to forget about it
fatal: cherry-pick failed

Clarify by removing the redundant first "error:" message, simplifying
the advice, and using lower-case and no full stops to be consistent
with other commands that prefix their messages with "error:", so it
becomes

error: a cherry-pick or revert is already in progress
hint: try "git cherry-pick (--continue | --quit)"
fatal: cherry-pick failed

The "fatal: cherry-pick failed" line seems unnecessary, too, but
that can be fixed some other day.

revert: rename --reset option to --quitJonathan Nieder Tue, 22 Nov 2011 11:14:29 +0000 (05:14 -0600)

revert: rename --reset option to --quit

The option to "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" to discard the
sequencer state introduced by v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~6 (revert: Introduce
--reset to remove sequencer state, 2011-08-04) has a confusing name.
Change it now, while we still have the time.

The new name for "cherry-pick, please get out of my way, since I've
long forgotten about the sequence of commits I was cherry-picking when
you wrote that old .git/sequencer directory" is --quit. Mnemonic:
this is analagous to quiting a program the user is no longer using ---
we just want to get out of the multiple-command cherry-pick procedure
and not to reset HEAD or rewind any other old state.

The "--reset" option is kept as a synonym to minimize the impact. We
might consider dropping it for simplicity in a separate patch, though.

Adjust documentation and tests to use the newly preferred name (--quit)
instead of --reset. While at it, let's clarify the short descriptions
of these operations in "-h" output.

Before:

--reset forget the current operation
--continue continue the current operation

After:

--quit end revert or cherry-pick sequence
--continue resume revert or cherry-pick sequence

archive: don't let remote clients get unreachable commits

Usually git is careful not to allow clients to fetch
arbitrary objects from the database; for example, objects
received via upload-pack must be reachable from a ref.
Upload-archive breaks this by feeding the client's tree-ish
directly to get_sha1, which will accept arbitrary hex sha1s,
reflogs, etc.

This is not a problem if all of your objects are publicly
reachable anyway (or at least public to anybody who can run
upload-archive). Or if you are making the repo available by
dumb protocols like http or rsync (in which case the client
can read your whole object db directly).

But for sites which allow access only through smart
protocols, clients may be able to fetch trees from commits
that exist in the server's object database but are not
referenced (e.g., because history was rewound).

This patch tightens upload-archive's lookup to use dwim_ref
rather than get_sha1. This means a remote client can only
fetch the tip of a named ref, not an arbitrary sha1 or
reflog entry.

This also restricts some legitimate requests, too:

1. Reachable non-tip commits, like:

git archive --remote=$url v1.0~5

2. Sub-trees of reachable commits, like:

git archive --remote=$url v1.7.7:Documentation

Local requests continue to use get_sha1, and are not
restricted at all.

config.c: Fix a static buffer overwrite bug by avoiding... Ramsay Jones Sat, 19 Nov 2011 19:42:00 +0000 (19:42 +0000)

config.c: Fix a static buffer overwrite bug by avoiding mkpath()

On cygwin, test number 21 of t3200-branch.sh (git branch -m q q2
without config should succeed) fails. The failure involves the
functions from path.c which parcel out internal static buffers
from the git_path() and mkpath() functions.

In particular, the rename_ref() function calls safe_create_leading\
_directories() with a filename returned by git_path("logs/%s", ref).
safe_create_leading_directories(), in turn, calls stat() on each
element of the path it is given. On cygwin, this leads to a call
to git_config() for each component of the path, since this test
explicitly removes the config file. git_config() calls mkpath(), so
on the fourth component of the path, the original buffer passed
into the function is overwritten with the config filename.

Note that this bug is specific to cygwin and it's schizophrenic
stat() functions (see commits adbc0b6, 7faee6b and 7974843). The
lack of a config file and a path with at least four elements is
also important to trigger the bug.

In order to fix the problem, we replace the call to mkpath() with
a call to mksnpath() and provide our own buffer.

Once the prefix is removed, the remainder of the url looks something
like "//home/ramsay/git/t/...", which is then interpreted as an
network path. This then results in a "Permission denied" error, like
so:

ramsay $ ls //home
ls: cannot access //home: No such host or network path
ramsay $ ls //home/ramsay
ls: cannot access //home/ramsay: Permission denied
ramsay $

If you have a deleted file and a porcelain refreshes the

Unstaged changes after reset:
M file

This is technically correct, in that the file is modified,
but it's friendlier to the user if we further differentiate
the case of a deleted file (especially because this output
looks a lot like "diff --name-status", which would also make
the distinction).

Similarly, we can distinguish typechanges ("T") and
intent-to-add files ("A"), both of which appear as just "M"
in the current output.

The plumbing output for all cases remains "needs update" for
historical compatibility.

Makefile: add option to disable automatic dependency... Jonathan Nieder Fri, 18 Nov 2011 09:58:21 +0000 (03:58 -0600)

Makefile: add option to disable automatic dependency generation

Now that the COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES feature is turned on
automatically for compilers that support it (see v1.7.8-rc0~142^2~1,
2011-08-18), there is no easy way to force it off. For example,
setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to the empty string in config.mak
just tells the makefile to treat it as undefined and run a test
command to see if the -MMD option is supported.

So allow setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no to explicitly force
the feature off. The new semantics:

- "yes" means to explicitly enable the feature
- "no" means to disable it
- "auto" means to autodetect

The default is still "auto". Any value other than these three will
cause the build to error out with a descriptive message so typos and
stale settings in config.mak don't result in mysterious behavior.

Makefile:1278: *** please set COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to
yes, no, or auto (not "1"). Stop.

So now when someone using a compiler without -MMD support reports
trouble building git, you can reproduce it by running "make
COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no".

indent output based on the level of recursion and there is no similar
justification for such a function in "notes merge".

refs: loosen over-strict "format" check

The add_extra_ref() interface is used to add an extra-ref that is _not_
our ref for the purpose of helping auto-following of tags and reducing
object transfer from remote repository, and they are typically formatted
as a tagname followed by ^{} to make sure no valid refs match that
pattern. In other words, these entries are deliberately formatted not to
pass check-refname-format test.

A recent series however added a test unconditionally to the add_ref()
function that is called from add_extra_ref(). The check may be sensible
for other two callsites of the add_ref() interface, but definitely is
a wrong thing to do in add_extra_ref(). Disable it.

Convert many resolve_ref() calls to read_ref*() and ref_exists()

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not
safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens,
the buffer may be changed. Many call sites though do not care about
this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not.

Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref()
calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on
to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

merge: force edit and no-ff mode when merging a tag object

Now that we allow pulling a tag from the remote site to validate the
authenticity, we should give the user the final chance to verify and edit
the merge message. The integrator is expected to leave a meaningful merge

ensure that a merge commit is always recorded.

commit: copy merged signed tags to headers of merge commit

Now MERGE_HEAD records the tag objects without peeling, we could record
the result of manual conflict resolution via "git commit" without losing
the tag information. Introduce a new "mergetag" multi-line header field to
the commit object, and use it to store the entire contents of each signed
tag merged.

A commit header that has a multi-line payload begins with the header tag
(e.g. "mergetag" in this case), SP, the first line of payload, LF, and all
the remaining lines have a SP inserted at the beginning.

In hindsight, it would have been better to make "merge --continue" as the
way to continue from such an interrupted merge, not "commit", but this is
a backward compatibility baggage we would need to carry around for now.

The integrator tool will start allowing to pull a signed or an annotated
tag, i.e.

$ git pull $there tags/for-linus

and the description in the tag is used to convey a meaningful message from
the lieutenant to the integrator to justify the history being pulled.

Include the message in the pull request e-mail, as the same information is
useful in this context, too. It would encourage the lieutenants to write
meaningful messages in their signed tags.

merge: make usage of commit->util more extensible

The merge-recursive code uses the commit->util field directly to annotate
the commit objects given from the command line, i.e. the remote heads to
be merged, with a single string to be used to describe it in its trace
messages and conflict markers.

Correct this short-signtedness by redefining the field to be a pointer to
a structure "struct merge_remote_desc" that later enhancements can add
more information. Store the original objects we were told to merge in a
field "obj" in this struct, so that we can recover the tag we were told to
merge.

fmt-merge-msg: Add contents of merged tag in the merge message

When a contributor asks the integrator to merge her history, a signed tag
can be a good vehicle to communicate the authenticity of the request while
conveying other information such as the purpose of the topic.

E.g. a signed tag "for-linus" can be created, and the integrator can run:

$ git pull git://example.com/work.git/ for-linus

This would allow the integrator to run "git verify-tag FETCH_HEAD" to
validate the signed tag.

Update fmt-merge-msg so that it pre-fills the merge message template with
the body (but not signature) of the tag object to help the integrator write
a better merge message, in the same spirit as the existing merge.log summary
lines.

The message that comes from GPG signature validation is also included in
the merge message template to help the integrator verify it, but they are
prefixed with "#" to make them comments.

refs DWIMmery: use the same rule for both "git fetch" and others

"git log frotz" can DWIM to "refs/remotes/frotz/HEAD", but in the remote
access context, "git fetch frotz" to fetch what the other side happened to
have fetched from what it calls 'frotz' (which may not have any relation
to what we consider is 'frotz') the last time would not make much sense,
so the fetch rules table did not include "refs/remotes/%.*s/HEAD".

When the user really wants to, "git fetch $there remotes/frotz/HEAD" would
let her do so anyway, so this is not about safety or security; it merely
is about confusion avoidance and discouraging meaningless usage.

Specifically, it is _not_ about ambiguity avoidance. A name that would
become ambiguous if we use the same rules table for both fetch and local
rev-parse would be ambiguous locally at the remote side.

So for the same reason as we added rule to allow "git fetch $there v1.0"
instead of "git fetch $there tags/v1.0" in the previous commit, here is a
bit longer rope for the users, which incidentally simplifies our code.

Introduce a "pull.rebase" option to globally configure "git pull" to

This option will be considered at a lower priority than

apply: get rid of useless x < 0 comparison on a size_t type

According to the C standard size_t is always unsigned, therefore the
comparison "n1 < 0 || n2 < 0" when n1 and n2 are size_t will always be
false.

This was raised by clang 2.9 which throws this warning when compiling
apply.c:

builtin/apply.c:253:9: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false [-Wtautological-compare]
if (n1 < 0 || n2 < 0)
~~ ^ ~
builtin/apply.c:253:19: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false [-Wtautological-compare]
if (n1 < 0 || n2 < 0)
~~ ^ ~

This check was originally added in v1.6.5-rc0~53^2 by Giuseppe Bilotta
while adding an option to git-apply to ignore whitespace differences.

Support sizes >=2G in various config options accepting... Nick Alcock Wed, 2 Nov 2011 15:46:23 +0000 (15:46 +0000)

Support sizes >=2G in various config options accepting 'g' sizes.

The config options core.packedGitWindowSize, core.packedGitLimit,
core.deltaBaseCacheLimit, core.bigFileThreshold, pack.windowMemory and
pack.packSizeLimit all claim to support suffixes up to and including
'g'. This implies that they should accept sizes >=2G on 64-bit
systems: certainly, specifying a size of 3g should not silently be
translated to zero or transformed into a large negative value due to
integer overflow. However, due to use of git_config_int() rather than
git_config_ulong(), that is exactly what happens:

% git config core.bigFileThreshold 2g
% git gc --aggressive # with extra debugging code to print out
# core.bigfilethreshold after parsing
bigfilethreshold: -2147483648
[...]

This is probably irrelevant for core.deltaBaseCacheLimit, but is
problematic for the other values. (It is particularly problematic for
core.packedGitLimit, which can't even be set to its default value in
the config file due to this bug.)

This fixes things for 32-bit platforms as well. They get the usual bad
config error if an overlarge value is specified, e.g.:

fatal: bad config value for 'core.bigfilethreshold' in /home/nix/.gitconfig

This is detected in all cases, even if the 32-bit platform has no size
larger than 'long'. For signed integral configuration values, we also
detect the case where the value is too large for the signed type but
not the unsigned type.

fetch: do not store peeled tag object names in FETCH_HEADLinus Torvalds Thu, 3 Nov 2011 02:19:34 +0000 (19:19 -0700)

fetch: do not store peeled tag object names in FETCH_HEAD

We do not want to record tags as parents of a merge when the user does
"git pull $there tag v1.0" to merge tagged commit, but that is not a good
enough excuse to peel the tag down to commit when storing in FETCH_HEAD.
The caller of underlying "git fetch $there tag v1.0" may have other uses
of information contained in v1.0 tag in mind.

[jc: the test adjustment is to update for the new expectation]

Split GPG interface into its own helper libraryJunio C Hamano Thu, 8 Sep 2011 04:19:47 +0000 (21:19 -0700)

Split GPG interface into its own helper library

This mostly moves existing code from builtin/tag.c (for signing)
and builtin/verify-tag.c (for verifying) to a new gpg-interface.c
file to provide a more generic library interface.

- sign_buffer() takes a payload strbuf, a signature strbuf, and a signing
key, runs "gpg" to produce a detached signature for the payload, and
appends it to the signature strbuf. The contents of a signed tag that
concatenates the payload and the detached signature can be produced by
giving the same strbuf as payload and signature strbuf.

- verify_signed_buffer() takes a payload and a detached signature as
<ptr, len> pairs, and runs "gpg --verify" to see if the payload matches
the signature. It can optionally capture the output from GPG to allow
the callers to pretty-print it in a way more suitable for their
contexts.

"verify-tag" (aka "tag -v") used to save the whole tag contents as if it
is a detached signature, and fed gpg the payload part of the tag. It
relied on gpg to fail when the given tag is not signed but just is
annotated. The updated run_gpg_verify() function detects the lack of
detached signature in the input, and errors out without bothering "gpg".
