untracked cache: use git_env_bool() not getenv() for customization

GIT_DISABLE_UNTRACKED_CACHE and GIT_TEST_UNTRACKED_CACHE are only
sensed for their presense by using getenv(); use git_env_bool()
instead so that GIT_DISABLE_UNTRACKED_CACHE=false would work as
naïvely expected.

Also rename GIT_TEST_UNTRACKED_CACHE to GIT_FORCE_UNTRACKED_CACHE
to express what it does more honestly. Forcing its use may be one
useful thing to do while testing the feature, but testing does not
have to be the only use of the knob.

While at it, avoid repeated calls to git_env_bool() by capturing the
return value from the first call in a static variable.

A test in 't9903-bash-prompt.sh' fails when the test script is run

Note that both subshells execute four git commands each, meaning that
checking the emptiness of the whole subshell implicitly ensures that
not only 'git merge-recursive' but none of the other three commands
outputs anything to their stderr. Note also that if one of those
commands were to output anything on its stderr, then the current
combined check would not tell us which one of those four commands the

t5536: simplify checking of messages output to stderrSZEDER Gábor Sat, 24 Feb 2018 01:22:19 +0000 (01:22 +0000)

t5536: simplify checking of messages output to stderr

Commit 2071e05ed2 ("t5536: new test of refspec conflicts when
fetching", 2013-10-30), introduced the verify_stderr() function
which was used to verify that certain fatal/warning messages were
issued by a given git command. In addition, verify_stderr() would
filter a specific "fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly"
message, which may, or may not, be present (depending on the
relative timing of the git-fetch and git-upload-pack processes).

The verify_stderr() function has seen several modifications, which
has introduced a couple of minor problems. For example, commit
1edbaac3bb ("tests: use test_i18n* functions to suppress false
positives", 2016-06-17) introduced an inappropriate test_i18ngrep
call and commit f096e6e826 ("fetch: improve the error messages
emitted for conflicting refspecs", 2013-10-30) included an
ineffective invocation of sort at the end of a grep pipeline.

Instead of fixing these minor problems in verify_stderr(), we take
the simpler approach of directly searching the error file, using
test_i18ngrep, for the specific message(s) we expect. (The only
minor downside is that we would not notice any new messages).

diff: add --compact-summaryNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Sat, 24 Feb 2018 14:09:59 +0000 (21:09 +0700)

diff: add --compact-summary

Certain information is currently shown with --summary, but when used
in combination with --stat it's a bit hard to read since info of the
same file is in two places (--stat and --summary).

On top of that, commits that add or remove files double the number of
display lines, which could be a lot if you add or remove a lot of
files.

--compact-summary embeds most of --summary back in --stat in the
little space between the file name part and the graph line, e.g. with
commit 0433d533f1:

Documentation/merge-config.txt | 4 +
builtin/merge.c | 2 +
...-pull-verify-signatures.sh (new +x) | 81 ++++++++++++++
t/t7612-merge-verify-signatures.sh | 45 ++++++++
4 files changed, 132 insertions(+)

It helps both condensing information and saving some text
space. What's new in diffstat is:

- A new 0644 file is shown as (new)
- A new 0755 file is shown as (new +x)
- A new symlink is shown as (new +l)
- A deleted file is shown as (gone)
- A mode change adding executable bit is shown as (mode +x)
- A mode change removing it is shown as (mode -x)

Note that --compact-summary does not contain all the information
--summary provides. Rewrite percentage is not shown but it could be
added later, like R50% or C20%.

revision.c: reduce object database queries

In mark_parents_uninteresting(), we check for the existence of an
object file to see if we should treat a commit as parsed. The result
is to set the "parsed" bit on the commit.

Modify the condition to only check has_object_file() if the result
would change the parsed bit.

When a local branch is different from its upstream ref, "git status"
will compute ahead/behind counts. This uses paint_down_to_common()
and hits mark_parents_uninteresting(). On a copy of the Linux repo
with a local instance of "master" behind the remote branch
"origin/master" by ~60,000 commits, we find the performance of
"git status" went from 1.42 seconds to 1.32 seconds, for a relative
difference of -7.0%.

To satisfy the desire that the undeclared $x variable will be spotted
at compile-time. It's enough to include the first "use strict".

"use warnings" will be added to Git.pm less confusing and less

sha1_name: fix uninitialized memory errors

During abbreviation checks, we navigate to the position within a
pack-index that an OID would be inserted and check surrounding OIDs
for the maximum matching prefix. This position may be beyond the
last position, because the given OID is lexicographically larger
than every OID in the pack. Then nth_packed_object_oid() does not
initialize "oid".

Use the return value of nth_packed_object_oid() to prevent these
errors.

Also the comment about checking near-by objects miscounts the
neighbours. If we have a hit at "first", we check "first-1" and
"first+1" to make sure we have sufficiently long abbreviation not to
match either. If we do not have a hit, "first" is the smallest
among the objects that are larger than what we want to name, so we
check that and "first-1" to make sure we have sufficiently long
abbreviation not to match either. In either case, we only check up
to two near-by objects.

test_must_be_empty: make sure the file exists, not just empty

The helper function test_must_be_empty is meant to make sure the
given file is empty, but its implementation is:

if test -s "$1"
then
... not empty, we detected a failure ...
fi

Surely, the file having non-zero size is a sign that the condition
"the file must be empty" is violated, but it misses the case where
the file does not even exist. It is an accident waiting to happen
with a buggy test like this:

git frotz 2>error-message &&
test_must_be_empty errro-message

that won't get caught until you deliberately break 'git frotz' and
notice why the test does not fail.

t1507-rev-parse-upstream: don't check the stderr of a shell function

Three tests in 't1507-rev-parse-upstream.sh' fail when the test script
is run with '-x' tracing (and using a shell other than a Bash version
supporting BASH_XTRACEFD). The reason for those failures is that the
tests check the stderr of the function 'error_message', which includes
the trace of commands executed in that function as well, throwing off
the comparison with the expected output.

Save stderr of 'git rev-parse' only instead of the whole function, so
it remains free from tracing output.

After this change t1507 passes with '-x', even when running with
/bin/sh.

t: add means to disable '-x' tracing for individual test scripts

The previous patch resolved most of the test failures caused by
running our test suite with '-x' tracing and /bin/sh, and the
following patches in this series will resolve almost all of the
remaining failures. Unfortunately, not yet all.

Add means to disable '-x' tracing for individual test scripts by
setting the $test_untraceable variable to a non-empty value in the
test script before sourcing 'test-lib.sh'. However, since '-x'
tracing is not an issue with recent Bash versions supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD, i.e. v4.1 and later, don't disable tracing when the
test script is run with such a Bash version even when
$test_untraceable is set.

t: prevent '-x' tracing from interfering with test helpers' stderr

Running a test script with '-x' turns on 'set -x' tracing, the output
of which is normally sent to stderr. This causes a lot of
test failures, because many tests redirect and verify the stderr
of shell functions, most frequently that of 'test_must_fail'.
These issues were worked around somewhat in d88785e424 (test-lib: set
BASH_XTRACEFD automatically, 2016-05-11), so at least we could
reliably run tests with '-x' tracing under a Bash version supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD, i.e. v4.1 and later.

Futhermore, redirecting the stderr of test helper functions like
'test_must_fail' or 'test_expect_code' is the cause of a different
issue as well. If these functions detect something unexpected, they
will write their error messages intended to the user to thier stderr.
However, if their stderr is redirected in order to save and verify the
stderr of the tested git command invoked in the function, then the
function's error messages will be redirected as well. Consequently,
those messages won't reach the user, making the test's verbose output
less useful.

This patch makes it safe to redirect and verify the stderr of those
test helper functions which are meant to run the tested command given
as argument, even when running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh. This is
achieved through a couple of file descriptor redirections:

- Duplicate stderr of the tested command executed in the test helper
function from the function's fd 7 (see next point), to ensure that
the tested command's error messages go to a different fd than the
'-x' trace of the commands executed in the function or the
function's error messages.

- Duplicate the test helper function's fd 7 from the function's
original stderr, meaning that, after taking a detour through fd 7,
the error messages of the tested command do end up on the
function's original stderr.

- Duplicate stderr of the test helper function from fd 4, i.e. the
fd connected to the test script's original stderr and the fd used
for BASH_XTRACEFD. This ensures that the '-x' trace of the
commands executed in the function

- doesn't go to the function's original stderr, so it won't mess
with callers who want to save and verify the tested command's
stderr.

- does go to the same fd independently from the shell running
the test script, be it /bin/sh, an older Bash without
BASH_XTRACEFD, or a more recent Bash already supporting
BASH_XTRACEFD.

Furthermore, this also makes sure that the function's error
messages go to this fd 4, meaning that the user will be able to
see them even if the function's stderr is redirected in the test.

- Specify the latter two redirections above in the test helper
function's definition, so they are performed every time the
function is invoked, without the need to modify the callsites of
the function.

Perform these redirections in those test helper functions which can be
expected to have their stderr redirected, i.e. in the functions
'test_must_fail', 'test_might_fail', 'test_expect_code', 'test_env',
'nongit', 'test_terminal' and 'perl'. Note that 'test_might_fail',
'test_env', and 'nongit' are not involved in any test failures when
running tests with '-x' and /bin/sh.

The other test helper functions are left unchanged, because they
either don't run commands specified as their arguments, or redirecting
their stderr wouldn't make sense, or both.

With this change the number of failures when running the test suite
with '-x' tracing and /bin/sh goes down from 340 failed tests in 43
test scripts to 22 failed tests in 6 scripts (or 23 in 7, if the
system (OSX) uses an older Bash version without BASH_XTRACEFD to run
't9903-bash-prompt.sh').

Since Git 1.7.9, "git merge" defaulted to --no-ff (i.e. even when
the side branch being merged is a descendant of the current commit,
create a merge commit instead of fast-forwarding) when merging a
tag object. This was appropriate default for integrators who pull
signed tags from their downstream contributors, but caused an
unnecessary merges when used by downstream contributors who
habitually "catch up" their topic branches with tagged releases
from the upstream. Update "git merge" to default to --no-ff only
when merging a tag object that does *not* sit at its usual place in
refs/tags/ hierarchy, and allow fast-forwarding otherwise, to
mitigate the problem.

perl: call timegm and timelocal with 4-digit year

Amazingly, timegm(gmtime(0)) is only 0 before 2020 because perl's
timegm deviates from GNU timegm(3) in how it handles years.

man Time::Local says

Whenever possible, use an absolute four digit year instead.

with a detailed explanation about ambiguity of 2-digit years above that.

Even though this ambiguity is error-prone with >50% of users getting it
wrong, it has been like this for 20+ years, so we just use 4-digit years
everywhere to be on the safe side.

We add some extra logic to cvsimport because it allows 2-digit year
input and interpreting an 18 as 1918 can be avoided easily and safely.

subtree: fix add and pull for GPG-signed commits

If log.showsignature is true (or --show-signature is passed) while
performing a `subtree add` or `subtree pull`, the command fails.

toptree_for_commit() calls `log` and passes the output to `commit-tree`.
If this output shows the GPG signature data, `commit-tree` throws a
fatal error.

This commit fixes the issue by adding --no-show-signature to `log` calls
in a few places, as well as using the more appropriate `rev-parse`
instead where possible.

ref-filter: make "--contains <id>" less chatty if <id> is invalid

Some git commands which use --contains <id> print the whole
help text if <id> is invalid. It should only show the error
message instead.

This patch applies to "git tag", "git branch", "git for-each-ref".

This bug was a side effect of looking up the commit in option
parser callback. When a error occurs in the option parser, the
full usage is shown. To fix this bug, the part related to
looking up the commit was moved outside of the option parser
to the ref-filter module.

Basically, the option parser only parses strings that represent
commits and the ref-filter performs the commit look-up. If an
error occurs during the option parsing, then it must be an invalid
argument and the user should be informed of usage, but if a error
occurs during ref-filtering, then it is a problem with the
argument.

grep: move grep_source_init outside critical section

grep_source_init typically does three strdup()s, and in the threaded
case, the call from add_work() happens while holding grep_mutex.

We can thus reduce the time we hold grep_mutex by moving the
grep_source_init() call out of add_work(), and simply have add_work()
copy the initialized structure to the available slot in the todo
array.

This also simplifies the prototype of add_work(), since it no longer
needs to duplicate all the parameters of grep_source_init(). In the
callers of add_work(), we get to reduce the amount of code duplicated in
the threaded and non-threaded cases slightly (avoiding repeating the
long "GREP_SOURCE_OID, pathbuf.buf, path, oid" argument list); a
subsequent cleanup patch will make that even more so.

rebase -i: introduce --recreate-merges=[no-]rebase... Johannes Schindelin Fri, 23 Feb 2018 12:39:54 +0000 (13:39 +0100)

rebase -i: introduce --recreate-merges=[no-]rebase-cousins

This one is a bit tricky to explain, so let's try with a diagram:

C
/ \
A - B - E - F
\ /
D

To illustrate what this new mode is all about, let's consider what
happens upon `git rebase -i --recreate-merges B`, in particular to
the commit `D`. So far, the new branch structure would be:

--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
D'

This is not really preserving the branch topology from before! The
reason is that the commit `D` does not have `B` as ancestor, and
therefore it gets rebased onto `B`.

This is unintuitive behavior. Even worse, when recreating branch
structure, most use cases would appear to want cousins *not* to be
rebased onto the new base commit. For example, Git for Windows (the
heaviest user of the Git garden shears, which served as the blueprint
for --recreate-merges) frequently merges branches from `next` early, and
these branches certainly do *not* want to be rebased. In the example
above, the desired outcome would look like this:

--- C' --
/ \
A - B ------ E' - F'
\ /
-- D' --

Let's introduce the term "cousins" for such commits ("D" in the
example), and let's not rebase them by default, introducing the new
"rebase-cousins" mode for use cases where they should be rebased.

Similar to the `preserve` mode simply passing the `--preserve-merges`

This will allow users to conveniently rebase non-trivial commit

sequencer: handle post-rewrite for merge commands

In the previous patches, we implemented the basic functionality of the
`git rebase -i --recreate-merges` command, in particular the `merge`
command to create merge commits in the sequencer.

The interactive rebase is a lot more these days, though, than a simple
cherry-pick in a loop. For example, it calls the post-rewrite hook (if
any) after rebasing with a mapping of the old->new commits.

This patch implements the post-rewrite handling for the `merge` command
we just introduced. The other commands that were added recently (`label`
and `reset`) do not create new commits, therefore post-rewrite do not
need to handle them.

rebase: introduce the --recreate-merges optionJohannes Schindelin Fri, 23 Feb 2018 12:38:24 +0000 (13:38 +0100)

rebase: introduce the --recreate-merges option

Once upon a time, this here developer thought: wouldn't it be nice if,
say, Git for Windows' patches on top of core Git could be represented as
a thicket of branches, and be rebased on top of core Git in order to
maintain a cherry-pick'able set of patch series?

The original attempt to answer this was: git rebase --preserve-merges.

However, that experiment was never intended as an interactive option,
and it only piggy-backed on git rebase --interactive because that
command's implementation looked already very, very familiar: it was
designed by the same person who designed --preserve-merges: yours truly.

Some time later, some other developer (I am looking at you, Andreas!
;-)) decided that it would be a good idea to allow --preserve-merges to
be combined with --interactive (with caveats!) and the Git maintainer
(well, the interim Git maintainer during Junio's absence, that is)
agreed, and that is when the glamor of the --preserve-merges design
started to fall apart rather quickly and unglamorously.

The reason? In --preserve-merges mode, the parents of a merge commit (or
for that matter, of *any* commit) were not stated explicitly, but were
*implied* by the commit name passed to the `pick` command.

This made it impossible, for example, to reorder commits. Not to mention
to flatten the branch topology or, deity forbid, to split topic branches
into two.

Alas, these shortcomings also prevented that mode (whose original
purpose was to serve Git for Windows' needs, with the additional hope
that it may be useful to others, too) from serving Git for Windows'
needs.

Five years later, when it became really untenable to have one unwieldy,
big hodge-podge patch series of partly related, partly unrelated patches
in Git for Windows that was rebased onto core Git's tags from time to
time (earning the undeserved wrath of the developer of the ill-fated
git-remote-hg series that first obsoleted Git for Windows' competing
approach, only to be abandoned without maintainer later) was really
untenable, the "Git garden shears" were born [*1*/*2*]: a script,
piggy-backing on top of the interactive rebase, that would first
determine the branch topology of the patches to be rebased, create a
pseudo todo list for further editing, transform the result into a real
todo list (making heavy use of the `exec` command to "implement" the
missing todo list commands) and finally recreate the patch series on
top of the new base commit.

That was in 2013. And it took about three weeks to come up with the
design and implement it as an out-of-tree script. Needless to say, the
implementation needed quite a few years to stabilize, all the while the
design itself proved itself sound.

With this patch, the goodness of the Git garden shears comes to `git
rebase -i` itself. Passing the `--recreate-merges` option will generate
a todo list that can be understood readily, and where it is obvious
how to reorder commits. New branches can be introduced by inserting
`label` commands and calling `merge <label>`. And once this mode will
have become stable and universally accepted, we can deprecate the design
mistake that was `--preserve-merges`.

rebase-helper --make-script: introduce a flag to recreate merges

The sequencer just learned new commands intended to recreate branch
structure (similar in spirit to --preserve-merges, but with a
substantially less-broken design).

Let's allow the rebase--helper to generate todo lists making use of
these commands, triggered by the new --recreate-merges option. For a
commit topology like this (where the HEAD points to C):

- A - B - C
\ /
D

the generated todo list would look like this:

# branch D
pick 0123 A
label branch-point
pick 1234 D
label D

reset branch-point
pick 2345 B
merge -C 3456 D # C

To keep things simple, we first only implement support for merge commits
with exactly two parents, leaving support for octopus merges to a later
patch in this patch series.

As a special, hard-coded label, all merge-recreating todo lists start with
the command `label onto` so that we can later always refer to the revision
onto which everything is rebased.

sequencer: introduce the `merge` commandJohannes Schindelin Fri, 23 Feb 2018 12:37:22 +0000 (13:37 +0100)

sequencer: introduce the `merge` command

This patch is part of the effort to reimplement `--preserve-merges` with
a substantially improved design, a design that has been developed in the
Git for Windows project to maintain the dozens of Windows-specific patch
series on top of upstream Git.

The previous patch implemented the `label` and `reset` commands to label
commits and to reset to labeled commits. This patch adds the `merge`
command, with the following syntax:

merge [-C <commit>] <rev> # <oneline>

The <commit> parameter in this instance is the *original* merge commit,
whose author and message will be used for the merge commit that is about
to be created.

The <rev> parameter refers to the (possibly rewritten) revision to
merge. Let's see an example of a todo list:

label onto

# Branch abc
reset onto
pick deadbeef Hello, world!
label abc

reset onto
pick cafecafe And now for something completely different
merge -C baaabaaa abc # Merge the branch 'abc' into master

To edit the merge commit's message (a "reword" for merges, if you will),
use `-c` (lower-case) instead of `-C`; this convention was borrowed from
`git commit` that also supports `-c` and `-C` with similar meanings.

To create *new* merges, i.e. without copying the commit message from an
existing commit, simply omit the `-C <commit>` parameter (which will
open an editor for the merge message):

merge abc

This comes in handy when splitting a branch into two or more branches.

Note: this patch only adds support for recursive merges, to keep things
simple. Support for octopus merges will be added later in a separate
patch series, support for merges using strategies other than the
recursive merge is left for the future.

sequencer: introduce new commands to reset the revisionJohannes Schindelin Fri, 23 Feb 2018 12:37:01 +0000 (13:37 +0100)

sequencer: introduce new commands to reset the revision

In the upcoming commits, we will teach the sequencer to recreate merges.
This will be done in a very different way from the unfortunate design of
`git rebase --preserve-merges` (which does not allow for reordering
commits, or changing the branch topology).

The main idea is to introduce new todo list commands, to support
labeling the current revision with a given name, resetting the current
revision to a previous state, and merging labeled revisions.

This idea was developed in Git for Windows' Git garden shears (that are
used to maintain the "thicket of branches" on top of upstream Git), and
this patch is part of the effort to make it available to a wider
audience, as well as to make the entire process more robust (by
implementing it in a safe and portable language rather than a Unix shell
script).

This commit implements the commands to label, and to reset to, given
revisions. The syntax is:

label <name>
reset <name>

Internally, the `label <name>` command creates the ref
`refs/rewritten/<name>`. This makes it possible to work with the labeled
revisions interactively, or in a scripted fashion (e.g. via the todo
list command `exec`).

These temporary refs are removed upon sequencer_remove_state(), so that
even a `git rebase --abort` cleans them up.

We disallow '#' as label because that character will be used as separator
in the upcoming `merge` command.

Later in this patch series, we will mark the `refs/rewritten/` refs as
worktree-local, to allow for interactive rebases to be run in parallel in
worktrees linked to the same repository.
