Changed the ptouch bash function to use the "Text Last Updated"

(mtime) of the file/symlink/directory in the git working
directory. Previously it used the mtime of the item in the
svn working directory, which caused the race condition.

git-svn: properly set path for "info" command

canonicalize_path() was previously changed to better
fit SVN 1.5, but it makes the "info" command not match
svn(1) in two places:

1) URL ended up with a trailing slash when run without an
argument.

2) "Path: " was displayed instead of "Path: ." when run
without an argument.

We will also handle odd cases where a user wants to
get information on a file or directory named "0", too.

diff.renamelimit is a basic diff configurationLinus Torvalds Tue, 5 Aug 2008 18:27:30 +0000 (11:27 -0700)

diff.renamelimit is a basic diff configuration

The configuration was added as a core option in 3299c6f (diff: make
default rename detection limit configurable., 2005-11-15), but 9ce392f
(Move diff.renamelimit out of default configuration., 2005-11-21)
separated diff-related stuff out of the core.

Up to that point it was Ok.

When we separated the Porcelain options out of the git_diff_config in
83ad63c (diff: do not use configuration magic at the core-level,
2006-07-08), we should have been more careful.

This mistake made diff-tree plumbing and git-show Porcelain to notice
different set of renames when the user explicitly asked for rename
detection.

correct access right for git-svn-dcommit test

The tests requires anonymous write access. Therefore, "anon-access =
write" is added to conf/svnserve.conf. But because it was added to
the end of the file, it is impossible to guarantee in what section
it will be located. It turned out that on SVN 1.5, it was placed in
the wrong section and as result the test failed.

git-svn: Abort with an error if 'fetch' parameter is... Avery Pennarun Wed, 30 Jul 2008 20:53:55 +0000 (16:53 -0400)

git-svn: Abort with an error if 'fetch' parameter is invalid.

Previously, if a config entry looked like this:

svn-remote.svn.fetch=:refs/heads/whatever

git-svn would silently do nothing if you asked it to "git svn fetch", and
give a strange error if asked to "git svn dcommit". What it really wants is
a line that looks like this:

svn-remote.svn.fetch=:refs/remotes/whatever

So we should simply abort if we get the wrong thing.

On the other hand, there's actually no good reason for git-svn to enforce
using the refs/remotes namespace, but the code seems to have hardcoded this
in several places and I'm not brave enough to try to fix it all right now.

sort_in_topological_order(): avoid setting a commit... Johannes Schindelin Wed, 23 Jul 2008 00:51:36 +0000 (01:51 +0100)

sort_in_topological_order(): avoid setting a commit flag

We used to set the TOPOSORT flag of commits during the topological
sorting, but we can just as well use the member "indegree" for it:
indegree is now incremented by 1 in the cases where the commit used
to have the TOPOSORT flag.

This is the same behavior as before, since indegree could not be
non-zero when TOPOSORT was unset.

Incidentally, this fixes the bug in show-branch where the 8th column
was not shown: show-branch sorts the commits in topological order,
assuming that all the commit flags are available for show-branch's
private matters.

But this was not true: TOPOSORT was identical to the flag corresponding
to the 8th ref. So the flags for the 8th column were unset by the
topological sorting.

make sure parsed wildcard refspec ends with slashJunio C Hamano Sun, 27 Jul 2008 06:15:51 +0000 (23:15 -0700)

make sure parsed wildcard refspec ends with slash

A wildcard refspec is internally parsed into a refspec structure with src
and dst strings. Many parts of the code assumed that these do not include
the trailing "/*" when matching the wildcard pattern with an actual ref we
see at the remote. What this meant was that we needed to make sure not
just that the prefix matched, and also that a slash followed the part that
matched.

But a codepath that scans the result from ls-remote and finds matching
refs forgot to check the "matching part must be followed by a slash" rule.
This resulted in "refs/heads/b1" from the remote side to mistakenly match
the source side of "refs/heads/b/*:refs/remotes/b/*" refspec.

Worse, the refspec crafted internally by "git-clone", and a hardcoded
preparsed refspec that is used to implement "git-fetch --tags", violated
this "parsed widcard refspec does not end with slash" rule; simply adding
the "matching part must be followed by a slash" rule then would have
broken codepaths that use these refspecs.

This commit changes the rule to require a trailing slash to parsed
wildcard refspecs. IOW, "refs/heads/b/*:refs/remotes/b/*" is parsed as
src = "refs/heads/b/" and dst = "refs/remotes/b/". This allows us to
simplify the matching logic because we only need to do a prefixcmp() to
notice "refs/heads/b/one" matches and "refs/heads/b1" does not.

init: handle empty "template" parameter

If a user passes "--template=", then our template parameter
is blank. Unfortunately, copy_templates() assumes it has at
least one character, and does all sorts of bad things like
reading from template[-1] and then proceeding to link all of
'/' into the .git directory.

This patch just checks for that condition in copy_templates
and aborts. As a side effect, this means that --template=
now has the meaning "don't copy any templates."

Allow "non-option" revision options in parse_option... Pierre Habouzit Thu, 31 Jul 2008 10:22:23 +0000 (12:22 +0200)

Allow "non-option" revision options in parse_option-enabled commands

Commands which use parse_options() but also call setup_revisions()
must do their parsing in a two step process:

1. first, they parse all options. Anything unknown goes to
parse_revision_opt() (which calls handle_revision_opt), which
may claim the option or say "I don't recognize this"

2. the non-option remainder goes to setup_revisions() to
actually get turned into revisions

Some revision options are "non-options" in that they must be
parsed in order with their revision counterparts in
setup_revisions(). For example, "--all" functions as a
pseudo-option expanding to all refs, and "--no-walk" affects refs
after it on the command line, but not before. The revision option
parser in step 1 recognizes such options and sets them aside for
later parsing by setup_revisions().

However, the return value used from handle_revision_opt indicated
"I didn't recognize this", which was wrong. It did, and it took
appropriate action (even though that action was just deferring it
for later parsing). Thus it should return "yes, I recognized
this."

Previously, these pseudo-options generated an error when used with
parse_options parsers (currently just blame and shortlog). With
this patch, they should work fine, enabling things like "git
shortlog --all".

Fix merge name generation in "merge in C"Junio C Hamano Wed, 30 Jul 2008 08:12:19 +0000 (01:12 -0700)

Fix merge name generation in "merge in C"

When merging an early part of a branch, e.g. "git merge xyzzy~20", we were
supposed to say "branch 'xyzzy' (early part)", but it incorrectly said
"branch 'refs/heads/xy' (early part)" instead.

The logic was supposed to first strip away "~20" part to make sure that
what follows "~" is a non-zero posint, prefix it with "refs/heads/" and
ask resolve_ref() if it is a ref. If it is, then we know xyzzy was a
branch, and we can give the correct message.

However, there were a few bugs. First of all, the logic to build this
"true branch refname" did not count the characters correctly. At this
point of the code, "len" is the number of trailing, non-name part of the
given extended SHA-1 expression given by the user, i.e. number of bytes in
"~20" in the above example.

In addition, the message forgot to skip "refs/heads/" it prefixed from the
output.

Note: in a command like "git archive --prefix --remote=a/ HEAD", the string
"--remote=a/" will be interpreted as a remote option, not a prefix, because
that special parser sees it first. If one needs such a strange prefix, it

Teach gitlinks to ie_modified() and ce_modified_check_fs()Junio C Hamano Tue, 29 Jul 2008 08:13:44 +0000 (01:13 -0700)

Teach gitlinks to ie_modified() and ce_modified_check_fs()

The ie_modified() function is the workhorse for refresh_cache_entry(),
i.e. checking if an index entry that is stat-dirty actually has changes.

After running quicker check to compare cached stat information with
results from the latest lstat(2) to answer "has modification" early, the
code goes on to check if there really is a change by comparing the staged
data with what is on the filesystem by asking ce_modified_check_fs().
However, this function always said "no change" for any gitlinks that has a
directory at the corresponding path. This made ie_modified() to miss
actual changes in the subproject.

The patch fixes this first by modifying an existing short-circuit logic
before calling the ce_modified_check_fs() function. It knows that for any
filesystem entity to which ie_match_stat() says its data has changed, if
its cached size is nonzero then the contents cannot match, which is a
correct optimization only for blob objects. We teach gitlink objects to
this special case, as we already know that any gitlink that
ie_match_stat() says is modified is indeed modified at this point in the
codepath.

With the above change, we could leave ce_modified_check_fs() broken, but
it also futureproofs the code by teaching it to use ce_compare_gitlink(),
instead of assuming (incorrectly) that any directory is unchanged.

format-patch: Produce better output with --inline or --attach

This patch makes two small changes to improve the output of --inline
and --attach.

The first is to write a newline preceding the boundary. This is needed because
MIME defines the encapsulation boundary as including the preceding CRLF (or in
this case, just LF), so we should be writing one. Without this, the last
newline in the pre-diff content is consumed instead.

The second change is to always write the line termination character
(default: newline) even when using --inline or --attach. This is simply to
improve the aesthetics of the resulting message. When using --inline an email
client should render the resulting message identically to the non-inline
version. And when using --attach this adds a blank line preceding the
attachment in the email, which is visually attractive.

init: handle empty "template" parameter

If a user passes "--template=", then our template parameter
is blank. Unfortunately, copy_templates() assumes it has at
least one character, and does all sorts of bad things like
reading from template[-1] and then proceeding to link all of
'/' into the .git directory.

This patch just checks for that condition in copy_templates
and aborts. As a side effect, this means that --template=
now has the meaning "don't copy any templates."

git-mv: Keep moved index entries inact

The rewrite of git-mv from a shell script to a builtin was perhaps
a little too straightforward: the git add and git rm queues were
emulated directly, which resulted in a rather complicated code and
caused an inconsistent behaviour when moving dirty index entries;
git mv would update the entry based on working tree state,
except in case of overwrites, where the new entry would still have
sha1 of the old file.

This patch introduces rename_index_entry_at() into the index toolkit,
which will rename an entry while removing any entries the new entry
might render duplicate. This is then used in git mv instead
of all the file queues, resulting in a major simplification
of the code and an inevitable change in git mv -n output format.

Also the code used to refuse renaming overwriting symlink with a regular
file and vice versa; there is no need for that.

A few new tests have been added to the testsuite to reflect this change.
