read_sha1_file(): allow selective bypassing of replacement mechanism
The way "object replacement" mechanism was tucked to the read_sha1_file()
interface was suboptimal in a couple of ways:
- Callers that want it to die with useful diagnosis upon seeing a corrupt
object does not have a way to say that they do not want any object
replacement.
- Callers who do not want it to die but want to handle the errors
themselves are told to arrange to call read_object(), but the function
does not use the replacement mechanism, and also it is a file scope
static function that not many callers can call to begin with.
This adds a read_sha1_file_extended() that takes a set of flags; the
callers of read_sha1_file() passes a flag READ_SHA1_FILE_REPLACE to ask
for object replacement mechanism to kick in.
Later, we could add another flag bit to tell the function to return an
error instead of dying and then remove the misguided "call read_object()
yourself".
In a repository without object replacement, lookup_replace_object() should
be a no-op. Check the flag "read_replace_refs" on the side of the caller,
and bypess a function call when we know we are not dealing with replacement.
Also, even when we are set up to replace objects, if we do not find any
replacement defined, flip that flag off to avoid function call overhead
for all the later object accesses.
As this change the semantics of the flag from "do we need read the
replacement definition?" to "do we need to check with the lookup table?"
the flag needs to be renamed later to something saner, e.g. "use_replace",
when the codebase is calmer, but not now.
read_sha1_file(): get rid of read_sha1_file_repl() madness
Most callers want to silently get a replacement object, and they do not
care what the real name of the replacement object is. Worse yet, no sane
interface to return the underlying object without replacement is provided.
Remove the function and make only the few callers that want the name of
the replacement object find it themselves.
Change the "pot" target to also extract strings from our $(SCRIPT_SH)
files with xgettext(1).
Note that due to Jonathan Nieder's trick of doing "mv $@+ $@" at the
end of the target the "pot" target will now warn:
$ make pot
XGETTEXT po/git.pot
po/git.pot+: warning: Charset "CHARSET" is not a portable encoding name.
Message conversion to user's charset might not work.
This warnings is emitted because xgettext is writing into a non-*.pot
file, it's harmless however. The content that's written out is
equivalent to what it would be if we were writing directly into an
existing POT file with --join-existing.
As part of this change I've eliminated the && chain between xgettext
calls, this is incompatible with $(QUIET_XGETTEXT), if the && is left
in it'll emit:
/bin/sh: @echo: not found
Since it's redundant (the Makefile will stop if there's an error) I've
removed it altogether.

git-sh-i18n--envsubst: our own envsubst(1) for eval_gettext()
Add a git-sh-i18n--envsubst program which is a stripped-down version
of the GNU envsubst(1) program that comes with GNU gettext for use in
the eval_gettext() fallback.
We need a C helper program because implementing eval_gettext() purely
in shell turned out to be unworkable. Digging through the Git mailing
list archives will reveal two shell implementations of eval_gettext
that are almost good enough, but fail on an edge case which is tested
for in the tests which are part of this patch.
These are the modifications I made to envsubst.c as I turned it into
sh-i18n--envsubst.c:
* Added our git-compat-util.h header for xrealloc() and friends.
* Removed inclusion of gettext-specific headers.
* Removed most of main() and replaced it with my own. The modified
version only does option parsing for --variables. That's all it
needs.
* Modified error() invocations to use our error() instead of
error(3).
* Replaced the gettext XNMALLOC(n, size) macro with just
xmalloc(n). Since XNMALLOC() only allocated char's.
* Removed the string_list_destroy function. It's redundant (also in
the upstream code).
* Replaced the use of stdbool.h (a C99 header) by doing the following
replacements on the code:
* s/bool/unsigned short int/g
* s/true/1/g
* s/false/0/g

Submodules: Don't parse .gitmodules when it contains, merge conflicts
Commands like "git status", "git diff" and "git fetch" would fail when the
.gitmodules file contained merge conflicts because the config parser would
call die() when hitting the conflict markers:
"fatal: bad config file line <n> in <path>/.gitmodules"
While this behavior was on the safe side, it is really unhelpful to the
user to have commands like status and diff fail, as these are needed to
find out what's going on. And the error message is only mildly helpful,
as it points to the right file but doesn't mention that it is unmerged.
Users of git gui were not shown any conflicts at all when this happened.
Improve the situation by checking if the index records .gitmodules as
unmerged. When that is the case we can't make any assumptions about the
configuration to be found there after the merge conflict is resolved by
the user, so assume that all recursion is disabled unless .git/config or
the global config say otherwise.
As soon as the merge conflict is resolved and the .gitmodules file has
been staged subsequent commands again honor any configuration done there.

Bigfile: teach "git add" to send a large file straight to a pack
When adding a new content to the repository, we have always slurped
the blob in its entirety in-core first, and computed the object name
and compressed it into a loose object file. Handling large binary
files (e.g. video and audio asset for games) has been problematic
because of this design.
At the middle level of "git add" callchain is an internal API
index_fd() that takes an open file descriptor to read from the
working tree file being added with its size. Teach it to call out to
fast-import when adding a large blob.
The write-out codepath in entry.c::write_entry() should be taught to
stream, instead of reading everything in core. This should not be so
hard to implement, especially if we limit ourselves only to loose
object files and non-delta representation in packfiles.
If the git commits you are submitting contain changes made by
other people, the authorship will not be retained. Change git-p4
to warn of this and to note that --preserve-user can be used
to solve the problem (if you have suitable permissions).

The zsh support of git-completion script in contrib/ is broken for current
versions of zsh, and does not notice when there's a subcommand.
For example: "git log origi<TAB>" gives no completions because it would
try to find a "git origi..." command. This will be fixed by zsh 4.3.12,
but for now we can workaround it by backporting the same fix as zsh folks
implemented.
The problem started after commit v1.7.4-rc0~11^2~2 (bash: get
--pretty=m<tab> completion to work with bash v4), which introduced
_get_comp_words_by_ref() that comes from bash-completion[1] scripts, and
relies on the 'words' variable.
However, it turns out 'words' is a special variable used by zsh
completion. From zshcompwid(1):
[...] the parameters are reset on each function exit (including nested
function calls from within the completion widget) to the values they had
when the function was entered.
As a result, subcommand words are lost. Ouch.
This is now fixed in the latest master branch of zsh[2] by simply defining
'words' as hidden (typeset -h), which removes the special meaning inside
the emulated bash function. So let's do the same.

rev/path disambiguation: further restrict "misspelled index entry" diag
A colon followed by anything !isalnum() (e.g. ":/heh") at this point is
known not to be an existing rev. Just give a generic "neither a rev nor
a path" error message.
"git cmd :/no-such-string-ever-existed" runs an extra round of get_sha1()
since 009fee4 (Detailed diagnosis when parsing an object name fails.,
2009-12-07). Once without error diagnosis to see there is no commit with
such a string in the log message (hence "it cannot be a ref"), and after
seeing that :/no-such-string-ever-existed is not a filename (hence "it
cannot be a path, either"), another time to give "better diagnosis".
The thing is, the second time it runs, we already know that traversing the
history all the way down to the root will _not_ find any matching commit.
Rename misguided "gently" parameter, which is turned off _only_ when the
"detailed diagnosis" codepath knows that it cannot be a ref and making the
call only for the caller to die with a message. Flip its meaning (and
adjust the callers) and call it "only_to_die", which is not a great name,
but it describes far more clearly what the codepaths that switches their
behaviour based on this variable do.
On my box, the command spends ~1.8 seconds without the patch to make the
report; with the patch it spends ~1.12 seconds.
Given "git log :", we get a disambiguation message that tries to be
helpful and yet totally misses the point, i.e.
$ git log :
fatal: Path '' does not exist (neither on disk nor in the index).
$ git log :/
fatal: Path '/' exists on disk, but not in the index.
An empty path nor anything that begins with '/' cannot possibly in the
index, and it is wrong to guess that the user might have meant to access
such an index entry.
It should yield the same error message as "git log '*.c'", i.e.
$ git log '*.c'
fatal: ambiguous argument '*.c': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
When there is no remaining string in argv, get_pathspec(prefix, argv)
will return a two-element array that has prefix as the first element,
so there is no need to re-roll that logic in the code that uses
get_pathspec().
pathspec: drop "lone : means no pathspec" from get_pathspec()
We may want to give the pathspec subsystem such a feature, but not while
we are still using get_pathspec() that returns a stupid "char **" that
loses subtle nuances that existed in the input string.
In the meantime, the callers of get_pathspec() that want to support it
could do an equivalent before feeding their argv[] to the function
themselves quite easily.
The real implementation of the feature needs to wait until we migrate
all the code to use "struct pathspec", not "char **", to represent
richer semantics given to pathspec.
sparse checkout: do not eagerly decide the fate for whole directory
Sparse-setting code follows closely how files are excluded in
read_directory(), every entry (including directories) are fed to
excluded_from_list() to decide if the entry is suitable. Directories
are treated no different than files. If a directory is matched (or
not), the whole directory is considered matched (or not) and the
process moves on.
This generally works as long as there are no patterns to exclude parts
of the directory. In case of sparse checkout code, the following patterns
t
!t/t0000-basic.sh
will produce a worktree with full directory "t" even if t0000-basic.sh
is requested to stay out.
By the same reasoning, if a directory is to be excluded, any rules to
re-include certain files within that directory will be ignored.
Fix it by always checking files against patterns. If no pattern can be
used to decide whether an entry is in our out
(ie. excluded_from_list() returns -1), the entry will be
included/excluded the same as their parent directory.

Honor $(prefix) set in config.mak* when defining ETC_GIT*
Notice that the prefix specified for the build influenced the definitions
of ETC_GITCONFIG and ETC_GITATTRIBUTES only when it was exactly '/usr'.
Kacper Kornet noticed that this was furthermore only the case when the
build was triggered using 'make prefix=/usr', i.e., the prefix was given
on the command line; it did not work when the prefix was specified in
config.mak because this file is included much later in the Makefile.
To fix this, move the conditional after the inclusion of config.mak.
Additionally, it is desirable to specify the etc directory for a build
(for example, a build with prefix /usr/local may still want to have the
system configuration in /etc/gitconfig). For this purpose, promote the
variable 'sysconfdir' from a helper variable to a configuration
variable. The prefix check that was moved must now be wrapped so that it
does not override sysconfdir setting given in config.mak.

convert: make it harder to screw up adding a conversion attribute
The current internal API requires the callers of setup_convert_check() to
supply the git_attr_check structures (hence they need to know how many to
allocate), but they grab the same set of attributes for given path.
Define a new convert_attrs() API that fills a higher level information that
the callers (convert_to_git and convert_to_working_tree) really want, and
move the common code to interact with the attributes system to it.
convert: make it safer to add conversion attributes
The places that need to pass an array of "struct git_attr_check" needed to
be careful to pass a large enough array and know what index each element
lied. Make it safer and easier to code these.
Besides, the hard-coded sequence of initializing various attributes was
too ugly after we gained more than a few attributes.
convert: give saner names to crlf/eol variables, types and functions
Back when the conversion was only about the end-of-line convention, it
might have made sense to call what we do upon seeing CR/LF simply an
"action", but these days the conversion routines do a lot more than just
tweaking the line ending. Raname "action" to "crlf_action".
The function that decides what end of line conversion to use on the output
codepath was called "determine_output_conversion", as if there is no other
kind of output conversion. Rename it to "output_eol"; it is a function
that returns what EOL convention is to be used.
A function that decides what "crlf_action" needs to be used on the input
codepath, given what conversion attribute is set to the path and global
end-of-line convention, was called "determine_action". Rename it to
"input_crlf_action".
convert: rename the "eol" global variable to "core_eol"
Yes, it is clear that "eol" wants to mean some sort of end-of-line thing,
but as the name of a global variable, it is way too short to describe what
kind of end-of-line thing it wants to represent. Besides, there are many
codepaths that want to use their own local "char *eol" variable to point
at the end of the current line they are processing.
This global variable holds what we read from core.eol configuration
variable. Name it as such.
Split out the case where we do not know the size of the input (hence we
read everything into a strbuf before doing anything) to index_pipe(), and
the other case where we mmap or read the whole data to index_bulk().
Kacper Kornet noticed that a $variable in "word" in the above construct is
not substituted by his pdksh. Modern POSIX compliant shells (e.g. dash,
ksh, bash) all seem to interpret POSIX "2.6.2 Parameter Expansion" that
says "word shall be subjected to tilde expansion, parameter expansion,
command substitution, and arithmetic expansion" in ${parameter<op>word},
to mean that the word is expanded as if it appeared in dq pairs, so if the
word were "'$variable'" (sans dq) it would expand to a single quote, the
value of the $variable and then a single quote.
Johannes Sixt reports that the behavior of quoting at the right of :- when
the ${...:-...} expansion appears in double-quotes was debated recently at
length at the Austin group. We can avoid this issue and future-proof the
test by a slight rewrite.

Such namespace pollution makes development of other scripts confusing

tests: eliminate unnecessary setup test assertions
Most of git's tests write files and define shell functions and
variables that will last throughout a test script at the top of
the script, before all test assertions:
. ./test-lib.sh
VAR='some value'
export VAR
>empty
fn () {
do something
}
test_expect_success 'setup' '
... nontrivial commands go here ...
'
Two scripts use a different style with this kind of trivial code
enclosed by a test assertion; fix them. The usual style is easier to
read since there is less indentation to keep track of and no need to
worry about nested quotes; and on the other hand, because the commands
in question are trivial, it should not make the test suite any worse
at catching future bugs in git.
While at it, make some other small tweaks:
- spell function definitions with a space before () for consistency
with other scripts;
- use the self-contained command "git mktree </dev/null" in
preference to "git write-tree" which looks at the index when
writing an empty tree.
