When ref-filter learned about want_color() in 11b087adfd
(ref-filter: consult want_color() before emitting colors,
2017-07-13), it became useful to be able to turn colors off
and on for specific commands. For git-branch, you can do so
with --color/--no-color.
But for git-for-each-ref and git-tag, the other users of
ref-filter, you have no option except to tweak the
"color.ui" config setting. Let's give both of these commands
the usual color command-line options.
This is a bit more obvious as a method for overriding the
config. And it also prepares us for the behavior of "always"
changing (so that we are still left with a way of forcing
color when our output goes to a non-terminal).

To test the color output, we must convince "git branch" to
write colors to a non-terminal. We do that now by setting
the color config to "always". In preparation for the
behavior of "always" changing, let's switch to using the
"--color" command-line option, which is more direct.

We test the %C() format placeholders with a variety of

"-c color.ui=always". In preparation for the behavior of
"always" changing, we need to do something with those
"always" tests.
We can drop ones that expect "always" to turn on color even
to a file, as that will become a synonym for "auto", which
is already tested.
For the "--no-color" test, we need to make sure that color
would otherwise be shown. To do this, we can use
test_terminal, which enables colors in the default setup.

To check that "status -v" respects diff config, we set
"color.diff" and look at the output of "status". We could
equally well use any diff config. Since color output depends
on a lot of other factors (like whether stdout is a tty, and
how we interpret "always"), let's use a more mundane option.

This script tests the output of status with various formats

the output is valid even though we capture it in a file.
Using test_terminal gives us a more realistic environment,

Arguably we are testing less than before, since "auto" is
already the default, and we can no longer tell if the config
is actually doing anything.

When testing whether "add -p" can generate colors, we set

going to a terminal (and it's plausible that this could mask
a real bug in add--interactive if we depend on plumbing's

The point of the test-terminal script is to simulate in the
test scripts an environment where output is going to a real
terminal.
But since test-lib.sh also sets TERM=dumb, the simulation
isn't very realistic. The color code will skip auto-coloring
for TERM=dumb, leading to us liberally sprinkling
test_terminal env TERM=vt100 git ...
through the test suite to convince the tests to actually
generate colors. Let's set TERM for programs run under
test_terminal, which is one less thing for test-writers to
remember.
In most cases the callers can be simplified, but note there
is one interesting case in t4202. It uses test_terminal to
check the auto-enabling of --decorate, but the expected
output _doesn't_ contain colors (because TERM=dumb
suppresses them). Using TERM=vt100 is closer to what the
real world looks like; adjust the expected output to match.

ref-filter: consult want_color() before emitting colors
When color placeholders like %(color:red) are used in a
ref-filter format, we unconditionally output the colors,
even if the user has asked us for no colors. This usually
isn't a problem when the user is constructing a --format on
the command line, but it means we may do the wrong thing
when the format is fed from a script or alias. For example:
$ git config alias.b 'branch --format=%(color:green)%(refname)'
$ git b --no-color
should probably omit the green color. Likewise, running:
$ git b >branches
should probably also omit the color, just as we would for
all baked-in coloring (and as we recently started to do for
user-specified colors in --pretty formats).
This commit makes both of those cases work by teaching
the ref-filter code to consult want_color() before
outputting any color. The color flag in ref_format defaults
to "-1", which means we'll consult color.ui, which in turn
defaults to the usual isatty() check on stdout. However,
callers like git-branch which support their own color config
(and command-line options) can override that.
The new tests independently cover all three of the callers
of ref-filter (for-each-ref, tag, and branch). Even though
these seem redundant, it confirms that we've correctly
plumbed through all of the necessary config to make colors
work by default.

pretty: respect color settings for %C placeholders
The color placeholders have traditionally been
unconditional, showing colors even when git is not otherwise
configured to do so. This was not so bad for their original
use, which was on the command-line (and the user could
decide at that moment whether to add colors or not). But
these days we have configured formats via pretty.*, and
those should operate correctly in multiple contexts.
In 3082517 (log --format: teach %C(auto,black) to respect
color config, 2012-12-17), we gave an extended placeholder
that could be used to accomplish this. But it's rather
clunky to use, because you have to specify it individually
for each color (and their matching resets) in the format.
We shied away from just switching the default to auto,
because it is technically breaking backwards compatibility.
However, there's not really a use case for unconditional
colors. The most plausible reason you would want them is to
redirect "git log" output to a file. But there, the right
answer is --color=always, as it does the right thing both
with custom user-format colors and git-generated colors.
So let's switch to the more useful default. In the
off-chance that somebody really does find a use for
unconditional colors without wanting to enable the rest of
git's colors, we provide a new %C(always,...) to enable the
old behavior. And we can remind them of --color=always in
the documentation.

rev-list: pass diffopt->use_colors through to pretty-print
When rev-list pretty-prints a commit, it creates a new
pretty_print_context and copies items from the rev_info
struct. We don't currently copy the "use_color" field,
though. Nobody seems to have noticed because the only part
of pretty.c that cares is the %C(auto,...) placeholder, and
presumably not many people use that with the rev-list
plumbing (as opposed to with git-log).
It will become more noticeable in a future patch, though,
when we start treating all user-format colors as auto-colors
(in which case it would become impossible to format colors
with rev-list, even with --color=always).

In most commands we load config before parsing command line
options, since it lets the latter override the former with a
simple variable assignment. In the case of for-each-ref,
though, we do it in the reverse order. This is OK with
the current code, since there's no interaction between the
config and command-line options.
However, as the ref-filter code starts to care about config
during verify_ref_format(), we'll want to make sure the
config is loaded. Let's bump the config to the usual spot
near the top of the function.
We can drop the comment there; it's impossible to keep a
"why we load the config" comment like this up to date with
every config option we might be interested in. And indeed,
it's already stale; we'd care about core.abbrev, for
instance, when %(objectname:short) is used.

Back in prehistoric times, our decision on whether or not to
show color by default relied on using a config callback that
either did or didn't load color config like color.diff.
When we introduced color.ui, we put it in the same boat:
commands had to manually respect it by using git_color_config()
or its git_color_default_config() convenience wrapper.
But in 4c7f1819b (make color.ui default to 'auto',
2013-06-10), that changed. Since then, we default color.ui
to auto in all programs, meaning that even plumbing commands
like "git diff-tree --pretty" might colorize the output.
Nobody seems to have complained in the intervening years,
presumably because the "is stdout a tty" check does a good
job of catching the right cases.
But that leaves an interesting curiosity: color.ui defaults
to auto even in plumbing, but you can't actually _disable_
the color via config. So if you really hate color and set
"color.ui" to false, diff-tree will still show color (but
porcelain like git-diff won't). Nobody noticed that either,
probably because very few people disable color.
One could argue that the plumbing should _always_ disable
color unless an explicit --color option is given on the
command line. But in practice, this creates a lot of
complications for scripts which do want plumbing to show
user-visible output. They can't just pass "--color" blindly;
they need to check the user's config and decide what to
send.
Given that nobody has complained about the current behavior,
let's assume it's a good path, and follow it to its
conclusion: supporting color.ui everywhere.
Note that you can create havoc by setting color.ui=always in
your config, but that's more or less already the case. We
could disallow it entirely, but it is handy for one-offs
like:
git -c color.ui=always foo >not-a-tty
when "foo" does not take a --color option itself.

ref-filter: pass ref_format struct to atom parsers
The callback for parsing each formatting atom gets to see
only the atom struct (which it's filling in) and the text to
be parsed. This doesn't leave any room for it to behave
differently based on context known only to the ref_format.
We can solve this by passing in the surrounding ref_format
to each parser. Note that this makes things slightly awkward
for sort strings, which parse atoms without having a
ref_format. We'll solve that by using a dummy ref_format
with default parameters.

slightly different interface. The end result is that
builtin/tag.c has a copy-paste of parse_opt_ref_sorting().

invocation.

2. some state can be carried in the struct rather than as

Users of the ref-filter code must call verify_ref_format()
before formatting any refs, but most ignore its return
value. This means we may print an error on a syntactically
bogus pattern, but keep going anyway.
In most cases this results in a fatal error when we actually
try to format a ref. But if you have no refs to show at all,
then the behavior is confusing: git prints the error from
verify_ref_format(), then exits with code 0 without showing
any output. Let's instead abort immediately if we know we
have a bogus format.
We'll output the usage information if we have it handy (just

reflog-walk: include all fields when freeing complete_reflogs
When we encounter an error adding reflogs for a walk, we try
to free any logs we have read. But we didn't free all
fields, meaning that we could in theory leak all of the
"items" array (which would consitute the bulk of the

This patch adds a helper which frees all of the entries and

As it turns out, the leak seems impossible to trigger with

complete_reflogs struct, two only kick in when the items
array is empty, and the third was removed entirely in the

So this patch should be a noop in terms of behavior, but it

The add_reflog_for_walk() function keeps a cache mapping

entry pointing to the now-freed memory.
We can fix this by just leaving the memory intact once it
has made it into the cache. This may leave an unused entry
in the cache, but that's OK. And it means we also catch a
similar situation: we may not have allocated at all in this

reflog-walk: duplicate strings in complete_reflogs list
As part of the add_reflog_to_walk() function, we keep a

serves as a cache so that accessing the same reflog twice
requires only a single copy of the log in memory.
The string_list is initialized via xcalloc, meaning its
strdup_strings field is set to 0. But after inserting a
string into the list, we unconditionally call free() on the
string, leaving the list pointing to freed memory. If
another reflog is added (e.g., "git log -g HEAD HEAD"), then
the second one may have unpredictable results.
The extra free was added by 5026b47175 (add_reflog_for_walk:
avoid memory leak, 2017-05-04). Though if you look
carefully, you can see that the code was buggy even before
then. If we tried to read the reflogs by time but came up
with no entries, we exited with an error, freeing the string
in that code path. So the bug was harder to trigger, but
still there.
We can fix it by just asking the string list to make a copy
of the string. Technically we could fix the problem by not
calling free() on our string (and just handing over
ownership to the string list), but there are enough
conditionals that it's quite hard to figure out which code
paths need the free and which do not. Simpler is better
here.
The new test reliably shows the problem when run with
--valgrind or ASAN.

reflog-walk: skip over double-null oid due to HEAD rename
Since 39ee4c6c2f (branch: record creation of renamed branch
in HEAD's log, 2017-02-20), a rename on the currently
checked out branch will create two entries in the HEAD
reflog: one where the branch goes away (switching to the
null oid), and one where it comes back (switching away from
the null oid).
This confuses the reflog-walk code. When walking backwards,
it first sees the null oid in the "old" field of the second
entry. Thanks to the "root commit" logic added by 71abeb753f
(reflog: continue walking the reflog past root commits,
2016-06-03), we keep looking for the next entry by scanning
the "new" field from the previous entry. But that field is
also null! We need to go just a tiny bit further, and look
at its "old" field. But with the current code, we decide the
reflog has nothing else to show and just give up. To the
user this looks like the reflog was truncated by the rename
operation, when in fact those entries are still there.
This patch does the absolute minimal fix, which is to look
back that one extra level and keep traversing.
The resulting behavior may not be the _best_ thing to do in
the long run (for example, we show both reflog entries each
with the same commit id), but it's a simple way to fix the
problem without risking further regressions.

It seems to be a little-known feature of `grep` (and it certainly came
as a surprise to this here developer who believed to know the Unix tools
pretty well) that multiple patterns can be passed in the same
command-line argument simply by separating them by newlines. Watch, and
learn:
That behavior also extends to patterns passed via `-e`, and it is not
modified by passing the option `-E` (but trying this with -P issues the
error "grep: the -P option only supports a single pattern").
It seems that there are more old Unix hands who are surprised by this
behavior, as grep invocations of the form
grep "$(git rev-parse A B) C" file
were introduced in a85b377d041 (push: the beginning of "git push
--signed", 2014-09-12), and later faithfully copy-edited in b9459019bbb
(push: heed user.signingkey for signed pushes, 2014-10-22).
Please note that the output of `git rev-parse A B` separates the object
IDs via *newlines*, not via spaces, and those newlines are preserved
because the interpolation is enclosed in double quotes.
As a consequence, these tests try to validate that the file contains
either A's object ID, or B's object ID followed by C, or both. Clearly,
however, what the test wanted to see is that there is a line that
contains all of them.
This is clearly unintended, and the grep invocations in question really
match too many lines.
Fix the test by avoiding the newlines in the patterns.
