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.

Test helper functions like test_must_fail may produce
messages to stderr when they see a problem. When the tests
are run with "--verbose", this ends up on the test script's
stderr, and the user can read it.
But there's a problem. Some tests record stderr as part of
the test, like:
In this case the error text goes into "output". This makes
the --verbose output less useful (it also means we might
accidentally match it in the second, though in practice we
tend to produce these messages only on error, so we'd abort
the test when the first command fails).
Let's instead send this user-facing output directly to
descriptor 4, which always points to the original stderr (or
/dev/null in non-verbose mode). And it's already forbidden
to redirect descriptor 4, since we use it for BASH_XTRACEFD,
as explained in 9be795fbce (t5615: avoid re-using descriptor
4, 2017-12-08).

Let's drop it in the name of simplicity. This is morally a

mapping of UNINTERESTING to "^" in get_revision_mark(). I

The "--show-all" revision option shows UNINTERESTING
commits. Some of these commits may be unparsed when we try
to show them (since we may or may not need to walk their
parents to fulfill the request).
Commit 3131b71301 (Add "--show-all" revision walker flag for
debugging, 2008-02-09) resolved this by just skipping
pretty-printing for commits without their object contents
cached, saying:
Because we now end up listing commits we may not even have been parsed
at all "show_log" and "show_commit" need to protect against commits
that don't have a commit buffer entry.
That was the easy fix to avoid the pretty-printer segfaulting,
but:
1. It doesn't work for all formats. E.g., --oneline
prints the oid for each such commit but not a trailing
newline, leading to jumbled output.
2. It only affects some commits, depending on whether we
happened to parse them or not (so if they were at the
tip of an UNINTERESTING starting point, or if we
happened to traverse over them, you'd see more data).
3. It unncessarily ties the decision to show the verbose
header to whether the commit buffer was cached. That
makes it harder to change the logic around caching
(e.g., if we could traverse without actually loading
the full commit objects).
These days it's safe to feed such a commit to the
pretty-print code. Since be5c9fb904 (logmsg_reencode: lazily
load missing commit buffers, 2013-01-26), we'll load it on
demand in such a case. So let's just always show the verbose
headers.
This does change the behavior of plumbing, but:
a. The --show-all option was explicitly introduced as a
debugging aid, and was never documented (and has rarely
even been mentioned on the list by git devs).
b. Avoiding the commits was already not deterministic due
to (2) above. So the caller might have seen full
headers for these commits anyway, and would need to be
prepared for it.

The transport-helper protocol c-style quotes the value of
any options passed to the helper via the "option <key> <value>"
directive. However, remote-curl doesn't actually unquote the
push-option values, meaning that we will send the quoted
version to the other side (whereas git-over-ssh would send
the raw value).
The pack-protocol.txt documentation defines the push-options
as a series of VCHARs, which excludes most characters that
would need quoting. But:
1. You can still see the bug with a valid push-option that
starts with a double-quote (since that triggers
quoting).
2. We do currently handle any non-NUL characters correctly
in git-over-ssh. So even though the spec does not say
that we need to handle most quoted characters, it's
nice if our behavior is consistent between protocols.
There are two new tests: the "direct" one shows that this
already works in the non-http case, and the http one covers

quotes, but not the $, meaning we expand the variable before
the eval).

merge: allow fast-forward when merging a tracked tag
Long time ago at fab47d05 ("merge: force edit and no-ff mode when
merging a tag object", 2011-11-07), "git merge" was made to always
create a merge commit when merging a tag, even when the side branch
being merged is a descendant of the current branch.
This default is good for merges made by upstream maintainers to
integrate work signed by downstream contributors, but will leave
pointless no-ff merges when downstream contributors pull a newer
release tag to make their long-running topic branches catch up with
the upstream. When there is no local work left on the topic, such a
merge should simply fast-forward to the commit pointed at by the
release tag.
Update the default (again) for "git merge" that merges a tag object
to (1) --no-ff (i.e. create a merge commit even when side branch
fast forwards) if the tag being merged is not at its expected place
in refs/tags/ hierarchy and (2) --ff (i.e. allow fast-forward update
when able) otherwise.

worktree: add: fix 'post-checkout' not knowing new worktree location
Although "git worktree add" learned to run the 'post-checkout' hook in ade546be47 (worktree: invoke post-checkout hook, 2017-12-07), it
neglected to change to the directory of the newly-created worktree
before running the hook. Instead, the hook runs within the directory
from which the "git worktree add" command itself was invoked, which
effectively neuters the hook since it knows nothing about the new
worktree directory.
Further, ade546be47 failed to sanitize the environment before running
the hook, which means that user-assigned values of GIT_DIR and
GIT_WORK_TREE could mislead the hook about the location of the new
worktree. In the case of "git worktree add" being run from a bare
repository, the GIT_DIR="." assigned by Git itself leaks into the hook's
environment and breaks Git commands; this is so even when the working
directory is correctly changed to the new worktree before the hook runs
since ".", relative to the new worktree directory, does not point at the
bare repository.
Fix these problems by (1) changing to the new worktree's directory
before running the hook, and (2) sanitizing the environment of GIT_DIR
and GIT_WORK_TREE so hooks can't be confused by misleading values.
Enhance the t2025 'post-checkout' tests to verify that the hook is
indeed run within the correct directory and that Git commands invoked by
the hook compute Git-dir and top-level worktree locations correctly.
While at it, also add two new tests: (1) verify that the hook is run
within the correct directory even when the new worktree is created from
a sibling worktree (as opposed to the main worktree); (2) verify that
the hook is provided with correct context when the new worktree is
created from a bare repository (test provided by Lars Schneider).
Implementation Notes:
Rather than sanitizing the environment of GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE, an
alternative would be to set them explicitly, as is already done for
other Git commands run internally by "git worktree add". This patch opts
instead to sanitize the environment in order to clearly document that
the worktree is fully functional by the time the hook is run, thus does
not require special environmental overrides.
The hook is run manually, rather than via run_hook_le(), since it needs
to change the working directory to that of the worktree, and
run_hook_le() does not provide such functionality. As this is a one-off
case, adding 'run_hook' overloads which allow the directory to be set
does not seem warranted at this time.

Makefile: generate Git(3pm) as dependency of the 'doc' and 'man' targets
Since commit 20d2a30f8f (Makefile: replace perl/Makefile.PL with
simple make rules, 2017-12-10), the Git(3pm) man page is only
generated as an indirect dependency of the 'install-doc' and
'install-man' Makefile targets. Consequently, if someone runs 'make
man && sudo make install-man' (or their 'doc' counterparts), then
Git(3pm) will be generated as root, and the resulting root-owned files
and directories will in turn cause the next user-run 'make clean' to
fail. This was not an issue in the past, because Git(3pm) was
generated when 'make all' descended into 'perl/', which is usually not
run as root.
List Git(3pm) as a dependency of the 'doc' and 'man' Makefile targets,
too, so it gets generated by targets that are usually built as
ordinary users.
