submodule: use argv_array instead of hand-building arrays
fetch_populated_submodules() allocates the full argv array it uses to
recurse into the submodules from the number of given options plus the six
argv values it is going to add. It then initializes it with those values
which won't change during the iteration and copies the given options into
it. Inside the loop the two argv values different for each submodule get
replaced with those currently valid.
However, this technique is brittle and error-prone (as the comment to
explain the magic number 6 indicates), so let's replace it with an
argv_array. Instead of replacing the argv values, push them to the
argv_array just before the run_command() call (including the option
separating them) and pop them from the argv_array right after that.

fetch: use argv_array instead of hand-building arrays
Fetch invokes itself recursively when recursing into
submodules or handling "fetch --multiple". In both cases, it
builds the child's command line by pushing options onto a
statically-sized array. In both cases, the array is
currently just big enough to handle the largest possible
case. However, this technique is brittle and error-prone, so
let's replace it with a dynamic argv_array.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Since the array struct stores a "const char **" argv member
(for compatibility with most of our argv-taking functions),
we have to cast away the const-ness when freeing its
elements.
However, we used the wrong type when doing so. It doesn't
make a difference since free() take a void pointer anyway,
but it can be slightly confusing to a reader.

Sometimes we build a set of similar command lines, differing
only in the final arguments (e.g., "fetch --multiple"). To
use argv_array for this, you have to either push the same
set of elements repeatedly, or break the abstraction by
manually manipulating the array's internal members.
Instead, let's provide a sanctioned "pop" function to remove
elements from the end.

This is due to the 'trailing_plan' having a 'skip_directive'
attached to it. This is not allowed by the TAP grammar, which
only allows a 'leading_plan' to be followed by an optional
'skip_directive'. (see perldoc TAP::Parser::Grammar).
A trailing_plan is one that appears in the TAP output after one or
more test status lines (that start 'not '? 'ok ' ...), whereas a
leading_plan must appear before all test status lines (if any).
In practice, this means that the test script cannot contain a use
of the 'skip all' facility:
skip_all='Some reason to skip *all* tests in this file'
test_done
after having already executed one or more tests with (for example)
'test_expect_success'. Unfortunately, this is exactly what this
test script is doing. The first 'setup' test is actually used to
determine if the test prerequisite is satisfied by the filesystem
(ie does it allow tabs in filenames?).
In order to fix the parse errors, place the code to determine the
test prerequisite at the top level of the script, prior to the
first test, rather than as a parameter to test_expect_success.
This allows us to correctly use 'skip_all', thus:
$ ./t3300-funny-names.sh
# passed all 0 test(s)
1..0 # SKIP Your filesystem does not allow tabs in filenames
$
$ prove --exec sh t3300-funny-names.sh

When fed such a commit, --format='%ci' fails to parse it, and gives
back an empty string. Update the split_ident_line() to be a bit
more lenient when parsing, but make sure the caller that wants to
pick up sane value from its return value does its own validation.
reduce_heads(): reimplement on top of remove_redundant()
This is used by "git merge" and "git merge-base --independent" but
used to use a similar N*(N-1) traversals to reject commits that are
ancestors of other commits.
Reimplement it on top of remove_redundant(). Note that the callers
of this function are allowed to pass the same commit more than once,
but remove_redundant() is designed to be fed each commit only once.
The function removes duplicates before calling remove_redundant().
get_merge_bases_many(): walk from many tips in parallel
The get_merge_bases_many() function reduces the result returned by
the merge_bases_many() function, which is a set of possible merge
bases, by excluding commits that can be reached from other commits.
We used to do N*(N-1) traversals for this, but we can check if one
commit reaches which other (N-1) commits by a single traversal, and
repeat it for all the candidates to find the answer.
Introduce remove_redundant() helper function to do this painting; we
should be able to use it to reimplement reduce_heads() as well.
With paint_down_to_common(), we can tell if "commit" is reachable
from "reference" by simply looking at its object flag, instead of
iterating over the merge bases.
merge_bases_many(): split out the logic to paint history
Introduce a new helper function paint_down_to_common() that takes
the same parameters as merge_bases_many(), but without the first
optimization of not painting anything when "one" is one of the
"twos" (or vice versa), and the last clean-up of removing the common
ancestor that is known to be an ancestor of another common one.
This way, the caller of the new function could tell if "one" is
reachable from any of the "twos" by simply looking at the flag bits
of "one". If (and only if) it is painted in PARENT2, it is
reachable from one of the "twos".
cherry-pick/revert: respect order of revisions to pick
When giving multiple individual revisions to cherry-pick or revert, as
in 'git cherry-pick A B' or 'git revert B A', one would expect them to
be picked/reverted in the order given on the command line. They are
instead ordered by their commit timestamp -- in chronological order
for "cherry-pick" and in reverse chronological order for
"revert". This matches the order in which one would usually give them
on the command line, making this bug somewhat hard to notice. Still,
it has been reported at least once before [1].
It seems like the chronological sorting happened by accident because
the revision walker has traditionally always sorted commits in reverse
chronological order when rev_info.no_walk was enabled. In the case of
'git revert B A' where B is newer than A, this sorting is a no-op. For
'git cherry-pick A B', the sorting would reverse the arguments, but
because the sequencer also flips the rev_info.reverse flag when
picking (as opposed to reverting), the end result is a chronological
order. The rev_info.reverse flag was probably flipped so that the
revision walker emits B before C in 'git cherry-pick A..C'; that it
happened to effectively undo the unexpected sorting done when not
walking, was probably a coincidence that allowed this bug to happen at
all.
Fix the bug by telling the revision walker not to sort the commits
when not walking. The only case we want to reverse the order is now
when cherry-picking and walking revisions (rev_info.no_walk = 0).
teach log --no-walk=unsorted, which avoids sorting
When 'git log' is passed the --no-walk option, no revision walk takes
place, naturally. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, however, the provided
revisions still get sorted by commit date. So e.g 'git log --no-walk
HEAD HEAD~1' and 'git log --no-walk HEAD~1 HEAD' give the same result
(unless the two revisions share the commit date, in which case they
will retain the order given on the command line). As the commit that
introduced --no-walk (8e64006 (Teach revision machinery about
--no-walk, 2007-07-24)) points out, the sorting is intentional, to
allow things like
To accomodate both cases, leave the decision of whether or not to sort
up to the caller, by allowing --no-walk={sorted,unsorted}, defaulting
to 'sorted' for backward-compatibility reasons.

Originally the "--quiet" option was parsed by the
diff-option parser into the internal QUICK option. This had
the effect of silencing diff output from the log (which was
not intended, but happened to work and people started to
use it). But it also had other odd side effects at the diff
level (for example, it would suppress the second commit in
"git show A B").
To fix this, commit 1c40c36 converted log to parse-options
and handled the "quiet" option separately, not passing it
on to the diff code. However, it simply ignored the option,
which was a regression for people using it as a synonym for
"-s". Commit 01771a8 then fixed that by interpreting the
option to add DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT to the list of output
formats.
However, that commit did not fix it in all cases. It sets
the flag after setup_revisions is called. Naively, this
makes sense because you would expect the setup_revisions
parser to overwrite our output format flag if "-p" or
another output format flag is seen.
However, that is not how the NO_OUTPUT flag works. We
actually store it in the bit-field as just another format.
At the end of setup_revisions, we call diff_setup_done,
which post-processes the bitfield and clears any other
formats if we have set NO_OUTPUT. By setting the flag after
setup_revisions is done, diff_setup_done does not have a
chance to make this tweak, and we end up with other format
options still set.
As a result, the flag would have no effect in "git log -p
--quiet" or "git show --quiet". Fix it by setting the
format flag before the call to setup_revisions.

branch -v: align even when branch names are in UTF-8
Branch names are usually in ASCII so they are not the problem. The

in UTF-8 and makes display-width calculation just wrong. Clarify
this by renaming the field "len" in struct ref_item to "width", as
it stores the display-width and is used to compute the width of the
screen needed to show the names of all the branches, and compute the
display width using utf8_strwidth(), not byte-length with strlen().
Update document to mention the fact that we may want ref names in
UTF-8. Encodings that produce invalid UTF-8 are safe as utf8_strwidth()
falls back to strlen(). The ones that incidentally produce valid UTF-8
sequences will cause misalignment.

All of the smart-http GET requests go through the http_get_*
functions, which will prompt for credentials and retry if we
see an HTTP 401.
POST requests, however, do not go through any central point.
Moreover, it is difficult to retry in the general case; we
cannot assume the request body fits in memory or is even
seekable, and we don't know how much of it was consumed
during the attempt.
Most of the time, this is not a big deal; for both fetching
and pushing, we make a GET request before doing any POSTs,
so typically we figure out the credentials during the first
request, then reuse them during the POST. However, some
servers may allow a client to get the list of refs from
receive-pack without authentication, and then require
authentication when the client actually tries to POST the
pack.
This is not ideal, as the client may do a non-trivial amount
of work to generate the pack (e.g., delta-compressing
objects). However, for a long time it has been the
recommended example configuration in git-http-backend(1) for
setting up a repository with anonymous fetch and
authenticated push. This setup has always been broken
without putting a username into the URL. Prior to commit 986bbc0, it did work with a username in the URL, because git
would prompt for credentials before making any requests at
all. However, post-986bbc0, it is totally broken. Since it
has been advertised in the manpage for some time, we should
make sure it works.
Unfortunately, it is not as easy as simply calling post_rpc
again when it fails, due to the input issue mentioned above.
However, we can still make this specific case work by
retrying in two specific instances:
1. If the request is large (bigger than LARGE_PACKET_MAX),
we will first send a probe request with a single flush
packet. Since this request is static, we can freely
retry it.
2. If the request is small and we are not using gzip, then
we have the whole thing in-core, and we can freely
retry.
That means we will not retry in some instances, including:
1. If we are using gzip. However, we only do so when
calling git-upload-pack, so it does not apply to
pushes.
2. If we have a large request, the probe succeeds, but
then the real POST wants authentication. This is an
extremely unlikely configuration and not worth worrying
about.
While it might be nice to cover those instances, doing so
would be significantly more complex for very little
real-world gain. In the long run, we will be much better off
when curl learns to internally handle authentication as a
callback, and we can cleanly handle all cases that way.

Note that we will route /foo/smart/bar.git directly to

Unfortunately, we end up failing the test because the

git-remote-http, and then again when the former spawns
git-http-push).
More importantly, though, it will let us easily add
smart-http authentication tests in t5541 and t5551; we
currently do not test smart-http authentication at all.
As part of making it generic, let's always look for and

apply: compute patch->def_name correctly under -p0

but still want to skip SP/HT that separates the pathnames of
preimage and postimage and want to reject absolute pathnames.
Stop using "stop_at_slash()", and instead introduce a new helper
"skip_tree_prefix()" with similar logic but works correctly even for
the -p0 case.

repository doesn't match the HEAD of the submodule, regardless of whether the
submodule is dirty. As discussed on the mailing list, the '--force' flag is a
strong indicator that the state of the submodule is suspect, and should be reset
to HEAD.

This script is one of the sizeable ones that tempted people to copy
its "neibouring style" in their new code, but was littered with
styles incompatible with our style guide.
- use one tab, not four spaces, per indent level;
- long lines can be wrapped after '|', '&&', or '||' for
readability.
- structures like "if .. then .. else .. fi", "while .. do .. done"
are split into lines in such a way that does not require
unnecessary semicolon.
- case, esac and case-arms align at the same column.
