Merge branch 'nd/fix-directory-attrs-off-by-one' into maint
The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be
applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the
exclude mechanism does. The initial implementation of this that was
merged to 'maint' and 1.8.1.1 had severe performance degradations.
Ramkumar Ramachandra noticed that the old address for the marc
archive no longer works. Update it to its marc.info address,
and also refer to the gmane site.
Remove the reference to "note from the maintainer", which is not
usually followed by any useful discussion on status, direction nor
tasks.
Also replace the reference to "What's in git.git" with "What's
cooking".
Long time ago, we used to punt on a large (read: asking for more
than 256 refs) fetch request and instead sent a full pack, because
we couldn't fit many refs on the command line of rev-list we run
internally to enumerate the objects to be sent. To fix this, 565ebbf (upload-pack: tighten request validation., 2005-10-24),
added a check to count the number of refs in the request and matched
with the number of refs we advertised, and changed the invocation of
rev-list to pass "--all" to it, still keeping us under the command
line argument limit.
However, these days we feed the list of objects requested and the
list of objects the other end is known to have via standard input,
so there is no longer a valid reason to special case a full clone
request. Remove the code associated with "create_full_pack" to
simplify the logic.
mergetools: simplify how we handle "vim" and "defaults"
Remove the exceptions for "vim" and "defaults" in the mergetool library
so that every filename in mergetools/ matches 1:1 with the name of a
valid built-in tool.
Define the trivial fallback definition of shell functions in-line in
git-mergetool-lib script, instead of dot-sourcing them from another
file. The result is much easier to follow.

Most Git commands that can be used with or without pathspec operate
tree-wide by default, the pathspec being used to restrict their
scope. A few exceptions are: 'git grep', 'git clean', 'git add -u'
and 'git add -A'. When run in a subdirectory without pathspec, they
operate only on paths in the current directory.
The inconsistency of 'git add -u' and 'git add -A' is particularly
problematic since other 'git add' subcommands (namely 'git add -p'
and 'git add -e') are tree-wide by default. It also means that "git
add -u && git commit" will record a state that is different from
what is recorded with "git commit -a".
Flipping the default now is unacceptable, so let's start training
users to type 'git add -u|-A :/' or 'git add -u|-A .' explicitly, to
prepare for the next steps:
* forbid 'git add -u|-A' without pathspec (like 'git add' without
option)
* much later, maybe, re-allow 'git add -u|-A' without pathspec, that
will add all tracked and modified files, or all files, tree-wide.
A nice side effect of this patch is that it makes the :/ magic
pathspec easier to discover for users.
When the command is called from the root of the tree, there is no
ambiguity and no need to change the behavior, hence no need to warn.

When this change was originally made (0846b0c - git-remote-testpy:
hash bytes explicitly , I didn't realise that the "hex" encoding we
chose is a "bytes to bytes" encoding so it just fails with an error
on Python 3 in the same way as the original code.
It is not possible to provide a single code path that works on
Python 2 and Python 3 since Python 2.x will attempt to decode the
string before encoding it, which fails for strings that are not
valid in the default encoding. Python 3.1 introduced the
"surrogateescape" error handler which handles this correctly and
permits a bytes -> unicode -> bytes round-trip to be lossless. As
the original came from reading the filesystem path, we convert them
back into the original bytes encoded in sys.getfilesystemencoding().
At this point Python 3.0 is unsupported so we don't go out of our
way to try to support it.

There are some old versions of p4, compiled for cygwin, that
treat read-only files differently.
Normally, a file that is not open is read-only, meaning that
"test -w" on the file is false. This works on unix, and it works
on windows using the NT version of p4. The cygwin version
of p4, though, changes the permissions, but does not set the
windows read-only attribute, so "test -w" returns false.

Files of type utf16 are handled with "p4 print" instead of the
normal "p4 -G print" interface due to how the latter does not
produce correct output. See 55aa571 (git-p4: handle utf16
filetype properly, 2011-09-17) for details.
On windows, though, "p4 print" can not be told which line
endings to use, as there is no underlying client, and always
chooses crlf, even for utf16 files. Convert the \r\n into \n
when importing utf16 files.
The fix for this is complex, in that the problem is a property
of the NT version of p4. There are old versions of p4 that
were compiled directly for cygwin that should not be subjected
to text replacement. The right check here, then, is to look
at the p4 version, not the OS version. Note also that on cygwin,
platform.system() is "CYGWIN_NT-5.1" or similar, not "Windows".
Add a function to memoize the p4 version string and use it to

git p4: remove unreachable windows \r\n conversion code
Replacing \r\n with \n on windows was added in c1f9197 (Replace
\r\n with \n when importing from p4 on Windows, 2007-05-24), to
work around an oddity with "p4 print" on windows. Text files
are printed with "\r\r\n" endings, regardless of whether they
were created on unix or windows, and regardless of the client
LineEnd setting.
As of d2c6dd3 (use p4CmdList() to get file contents in Python
dicts. This is more robust., 2007-05-23), git-p4 uses "p4 -G
print", which generates files in a raw format. As the native
line ending format if p4 is \n, there will be no \r\n in the
raw text.
Actually, it is possible to generate a text file so that the
p4 representation includes embedded \r\n, even though this is not
normal on either windows or unix. In that case the code would
have mistakenly stripped them out, but now they will be left
intact.

Native windows binaries do not understand posix-like
path mapping offered by cygwin. Convert paths to native
using "cygpath --windows" before presenting them to p4d.
This is done using the AltRoots mechanism of p4. Both the
posix and windows forms are put in the client specification,
allowing p4 to find its location by native path even though
the environment reports a different PWD.
Shell operations in tests will use the normal form of $cli,
which will look like a posix path in cygwin, while p4 will
use AltRoots to match against the windows form of the working
directory.
This mechanism also handles the symlink issue that was fixed in 23bd0c9 (git p4 test: use real_path to resolve p4 client
symlinks, 2012-06-27). Now that every p4 client view has
an AltRoots with the real_path in it, explicitly calculating
the real_path elsewhere is not necessary.

When we look up a sha1 object for reading via parse_object() =>
read_sha1_file() => read_object() callpath, we first check
packfiles, and then loose objects. If we still haven't found it, we
re-scan the list of packfiles in `objects/pack`. This final step
ensures that we can co-exist with a simultaneous repack process
which creates a new pack and then prunes the old object.
This extra re-scan usually does not have a performance impact for
two reasons:
1. If an object is missing, then typically the re-scan will find a
new pack, then no more misses will occur. Or if it truly is
missing, then our next step is usually to die().
2. Re-scanning is cheap enough that we do not even notice.
However, these do not always hold. The assumption in (1) is that the
caller is expecting to find the object. This is usually the case,
but the call to `parse_object` in `everything_local` does not follow
this pattern. It is looking to see whether we have objects that the
remote side is advertising, not something we expect to
have. Therefore if we are fetching from a remote which has many refs
pointing to objects we do not have, we may end up re-scanning the
pack directory many times.
Even with this extra re-scanning, the impact is often not noticeable
due to (2); we just readdir() the packs directory and skip any packs
that are already loaded. However, if there are a large number of
packs, even enumerating the directory can be expensive, especially
if we do it repeatedly.
Having this many packs is a good sign the user should run `git gc`,
but it would still be nice to avoid having to scan the directory at
all.

We generally try to run "gc --auto" after any commands that
might introduce a large number of new objects. An obvious
place to do so is after running "fetch", which may introduce
new loose objects or packs (depending on the size of the
fetch).
While an active developer repository will probably
eventually trigger a "gc --auto" on another action (e.g.,
git-rebase), there are two good reasons why it is nicer to
do it at fetch time:
1. Read-only repositories which track an upstream (e.g., a
continuous integration server which fetches and builds,
but never makes new commits) will accrue loose objects
and small packs, but never coalesce them into a more
efficient larger pack.
2. Fetching is often already perceived to be slow to the
user, since they have to wait on the network. It's much
more pleasant to include a potentially slow auto-gc as
part of the already-long network fetch than in the
middle of productive work with git-rebase or similar.

Usually a commit that makes it to logmsg_reencode will have
been parsed, and the commit->buffer struct member will be
valid. However, some code paths will free commit buffers
after having used them (for example, the log traversal
machinery will do so to keep memory usage down).
Most of the time this is fine; log should only show a commit
once, and then exits. However, there are some code paths
where this does not work. At least two are known:
1. A commit may be shown as part of a regular ref, and
then it may be shown again as part of a submodule diff
(e.g., if a repo contains refs to both the superproject
and subproject).
2. A notes-cache commit may be shown during "log --all",
and then later used to access a textconv cache during a
diff.
Lazily loading in logmsg_reencode does not necessarily catch
all such cases, but it should catch most of them. Users of
the commit buffer tend to be either parsing for structure
(in which they will call parse_commit, and either we will
already have parsed, or we will load commit->buffer lazily
there), or outputting (either to the user, or fetching a
part of the commit message via format_commit_message). In
the latter case, we should always be using logmsg_reencode
anyway (and typically we do so via the pretty-print
machinery).
If there are any cases that this misses, we can fix them up
to use logmsg_reencode (or handle them on a case-by-case
basis if that is inappropriate).
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
The logmsg_reencode function will return the reencoded
commit buffer, or NULL if reencoding failed or no reencoding
was necessary. Since every caller then ends up checking for NULL
and just using the commit's original buffer, anyway, we can
be a bit more helpful and just return that buffer when we
would have returned NULL.
Since the resulting string may or may not need to be freed,
we introduce a logmsg_free, which checks whether the buffer
came from the commit object or not (callers either
implemented the same check already, or kept two separate
pointers, one to mark the buffer to be used, and one for the
to-be-freed string).
Pushing this logic into logmsg_* simplifies the callers, and
will let future patches lazily load the commit buffer in a
single place.

When git-commit is asked to reuse a commit message via "-c",
we call read_commit_message, which looks up the commit and
hands back either the re-encoded result, or a copy of the
original. We make a copy in the latter case so that the
ownership semantics of the return value are clear (in either
case, it can be freed).
However, since we return a "const char *", and since the
resulting buffer's lifetime is the same as that of the whole
program, we never bother to free it at all.
Let's just drop the copy. That saves us a copy in the common
case. While it does mean we leak in the re-encode case, it
doesn't matter, since we are relying on program exit to free
the memory anyway.

When you have random build artifacts in your build directory, left
behind by running "make" while on another branch, the "git help -a"
command run by __git_list_all_commands in the completion script that
is being tested does not have a way to know that they are not part
of the subcommands this build will ship. Such extra subcommands may
come from the user's $PATH. They will interfere with the tests that
expect a certain prefix to uniquely expand to a known completion.

what (subset of) subcommands we are going to ship.
Also add a test to "git --help <prefix><TAB>" expansion. It needs

push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCE
When we push to update an existing ref, if:
* the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or
* the object we are pushing is not a commit,
it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again,
as the old and new objects will not "merge". We should explain that
the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is
involved in such a case.
If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do
not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be
merged. In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like
non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in
practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work
to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to
update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work
as a suggestion most of the time. And if the object at the tip is
not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent
damage. As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user
will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now
the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved.
In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the
client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the
ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from
there and integrate before pushing again.
Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages
appropriately.
push: further simplify the logic to assign rejection reason
First compute the reason why this push would fail if done without
"--force", and then fail it by assigning that reason when the push
was not forced (or if there is no reason to require force, allow it
to succeed).
Record the fact that the push was forced in the forced_update field
only when the push would have failed without the option.
The code becomes shorter, less repetitive and easier to read this
way, especially given that the set of rejection reasons will be
extended in a later patch.
The "nonfastforward" and "update" fields are only used while
deciding what value to assign to the "status" locally in a single
function. Remove them from the "struct ref".
The "requires_force" field is not used to decide if the proposed
update requires a --force option to succeed, or to record such a
decision made elsewhere. It is used by status reporting code that
the particular update was "forced". Rename it to "forced_update",
and move the code to assign to it around to further clarify how it
is used and what it is used for.
git-cvsimport relies on version 2 of cvsps and does not work with the
new version 3. Since cvsps 3.x does not currently work as well as
version 2 for incremental import, document this fact.
Specifically, there is no way to make new git-cvsimport that supports
cvsps 3.x and have a seamless transition for existing users since cvsps
3.x needs a time from which to continue importing and git-cvsimport does
not save the time of the last import or import into a specific namespace
so there is no safe way to calculate the time of the last import.

Since git-rev-parse already checks for the $GIT_DIR environment
variable and that it returns an actual git repository, there is no
need to repeat the checks again here.
This also fixes a problem where git-svn did not work in cases where
.git was a file with a gitdir: link.
[ew: squashed test case,
delay setting GIT_DIR until after `git rev-parse --cdup` to fix t9101,
(thanks to Junio)]

Add an extra hook so that "git push" that is run without making
sure what is being pushed is sane can be checked and rejected (as
opposed to the user deciding not pushing).
* as/pre-push-hook:
Add sample pre-push hook script
push: Add support for pre-push hooks
hooks: Add function to check if a hook exists
Add a new command "git check-ignore" for debugging .gitignore
files.
The variable names may want to get cleaned up but that can be done
in-tree.
* as/check-ignore:
clean.c, ls-files.c: respect encapsulation of exclude_list_groups
t0008: avoid brace expansion
add git-check-ignore sub-command
setup.c: document get_pathspec()
add.c: extract new die_if_path_beyond_symlink() for reuse
add.c: extract check_path_for_gitlink() from treat_gitlinks() for reuse
pathspec.c: rename newly public functions for clarity
add.c: move pathspec matchers into new pathspec.c for reuse
add.c: remove unused argument from validate_pathspec()
dir.c: improve docs for match_pathspec() and match_pathspec_depth()
dir.c: provide clear_directory() for reclaiming dir_struct memory
dir.c: keep track of where patterns came from
dir.c: use a single struct exclude_list per source of excludes
Regression fix to stop "git push" complaining "target ref already
exists", when it is not the real reason the command rejected the
request (e.g. non-fast-forward).
* cr/push-force-tag-update:
push: fix "refs/tags/ hierarchy cannot be updated without --force"
* mh/imap-send-shrinkage:
imap-send.c: simplify logic in lf_to_crlf()
imap-send.c: fold struct store into struct imap_store
imap-send.c: remove unused field imap_store::uidvalidity
imap-send.c: use struct imap_store instead of struct store
imap-send.c: remove unused field imap_store::trashnc
imap-send.c: remove namespace fields from struct imap
imap-send.c: remove struct imap argument to parse_imap_list_l()
imap-send.c: inline parse_imap_list() in parse_list()
imap-send.c: remove some unused fields from struct store
imap-send.c: remove struct message
imap-send.c: remove struct store_conf
iamp-send.c: remove unused struct imap_store_conf
imap-send.c: remove struct msg_data
imap-send.c: remove msg_data::flags, which was always zero
* mo/cvs-server-updates:
t9402: Use TABs for indentation
t9402: Rename check.cvsCount and check.list
t9402: Simplify git ls-tree
t9402: Add missing &&; Code style
t9402: No space after IO-redirection
t9402: Dont use test_must_fail cvs
t9402: improve check_end_tree() and check_end_full_tree()
t9402: sed -i is not portable
cvsserver Documentation: new cvs ... -r support
cvsserver: add t9402 to test branch and tag refs
cvsserver: support -r and sticky tags for most operations
cvsserver: Add version awareness to argsfromdir
cvsserver: generalize getmeta() to recognize commit refs
cvsserver: implement req_Sticky and related utilities
cvsserver: add misc commit lookup, file meta data, and file listing functions
cvsserver: define a tag name character escape mechanism
cvsserver: cleanup extra slashes in filename arguments
cvsserver: factor out git-log parsing logic
The resulting code ends up about the same length, but it is
a little more self-explanatory. It now explicitly documents
and checks the pre-condition that the incoming var starts
with "man.", and drops the magic offset "4".

submodule: simplify memory handling in config parsing
We keep a strbuf for the name of the submodule, even though
we only ever add one string to it. Let's just use xmemdupz
instead, which is slightly more efficient and makes it
easier to follow what is going on.
Unfortunately, we still end up having to deal with some
memory ownership issues in some code branches, as we have to
allocate the string in order to do a string list lookup, and
then only sometimes want to hand ownership of that string
over to the string_list. Still, making that explicit in the
code (as opposed to sometimes detaching the strbuf, and then
always releasing it) makes it a little more obvious what is
going on.

This fixes some minor issues and improves the
German translation a bit. The following things
were changed:
- use complete sentences in option related messages
- translate "use" consistently as "verwendet"
- don't translate "make sense" as "macht Sinn"
