The new callback function write_archive_entry() does the work that every

handling file attributes, constructing the full path of the entry. All that
done, it calls the backend specific write_archive_entry_fn_t function.

index-pack: Honor core.deltaBaseCacheLimit when resolving deltas
If we are trying to resolve deltas for a long delta chain composed
of multi-megabyte objects we can easily run into requiring 500M+
of memory to hold each object in the chain on the call stack while
we recurse into the dependent objects and resolve them.
We now use a simple delta cache that discards objects near the
bottom of the call stack first, as they are the most least recently
used objects in this current delta chain. If we recurse out of a
chain we may find the base object is no longer available, as it was
free'd to keep memory under the deltaBaseCacheLimit. In such cases
we must unpack the base object again, which will require recursing
back to the root of the top of the delta chain as we released that
root first.
The astute reader will probably realize that we can still exceed
the delta base cache limit, but this happens only if the most
recent base plus the delta plus the inflated dependent sum up to
more than the base cache limit. Due to the way patch_delta is
currently implemented we cannot operate in less memory anyway.

index-pack: Track the object_entry that creates each base_data
If we free the data stored within a base_data we need the struct
object_entry to get the data back again for use with another dependent
delta. Storing the object_entry* in base_data makes it simple to call
get_data_from_pack() to recover the compressed information.
This however means that we must add the missing base object to the end of
our packfile prior to calling resolve_delta() on each of the dependent
deltas. Adding the base first ensures we can read the base back from the
pack we are indexing, as if it had been included by the remote side.

base_cache gives us the head of the chain (bottom of the stack)

git-submodule - register submodule URL if adding in place
When adding a new submodule in place, meaning the user created the
submodule as a git repo in the superproject's tree first, we don't go
through "git submodule init" to register the module. Thus, the
submodule's origin repository URL is not stored in .git/config, and no
subsequent submodule operation will ever do so. In this case, assume the
URL the user supplies to "submodule add" is the one that should be
registered, and do so.

git-submodule - make "submodule add" more strict, and document it
This change makes "submodule add" much more strict in the arguments it
takes, and is intended to address confusion as recently noted on the
git-list. With this change, the required syntax is:
$ git submodule add URL path
Specifically, this eliminates the form
$ git submodule add URL
which was confused by more than one person as
$ git submodule add path
With this patch, the URL locating the submodule's origin repository can be
either an absolute URL, or (if it begins with ./ or ../) can express the
submodule's repository location relative to the superproject's origin.
This patch also eliminates a third form of URL, which was relative to the
superproject's top-level directory (not its repository). Any URL that was
neither absolute nor matched ./*|../* was assumed to point to a
subdirectory of the superproject as the location of the submodule's origin
repository. This URL form was confusing and does not seem to correspond
to an important use-case. Specifically, no-one has identified the need to
clone from a repository already in the superproject's tree, but if this is
needed it is easily done using an absolute URL: $(pwd)/relative-path. So,
no functionality is lost with this patch. (t6008-rev-list-submodule.sh did
rely upon this relative URL, fixed by using $(pwd).)
Following this change, there are exactly four variants of
submodule-add, as both arguments have two flavors:
URL can be absolute, or can begin with ./|../ and thus names the
submodule's origin relative to the superproject's origin.
Note: With this patch, "submodule add" discerns an absolute URL as
matching /*|*:*: e.g., URL begins with /, or it contains a :. This works
for all valid URLs, an absolute path in POSIX, as well as an absolute path
on Windows).
path can either already exist as a valid git repo, or will be cloned from
the given URL. The first form here eases creation of a new submodule in
an existing superproject as the submodule can be added and tested in-tree
before pushing to the public repository. However, the more usual form is
the second, where the repo is cloned from the given URL.
This specifically addresses the issue of
$ git submodule add a/b/c
attempting to clone from a repository at "a/b/c" to create a new module
in "c". This also simplifies description of "relative URL" as there is now
exactly *one* form: a URL relative to the parent's origin repo.

bash completion: Resolve git show ref:path<tab> losing ref: portion
Linus reported that the bash completion for git show often dropped
the ref portion of the argument (stuff before the :) when trying
to complete a file name of a file in another branch or tag.
Björn Steinbrink tracked it down to the gvfs completion script
which comes standard on many Fedora Core based systems. That is
removing : from COMP_WORDBREAKS, making readline treat the entire
argument (including the ref) as the name that must be completed.
When the git completion routines supplied a completion of just the
filename, readline replaced everything.
Since Git users often need to use "ref:path" or "ref:ref" sort of
arguments, and expect completion support on both sides of the :
we really want the : in COMP_WORDBREAKS to provide a good user
experience. This is also the default that ships with bash as it
can be useful in other contexts, such as rcp/scp.
We now try to add : back to COMP_WORDBREAKS if it has been removed
by a script that loaded before us. However if this doesn't work
(as the : is stripped after we load) we fallback in the completion
routines to include "ref:" as part of the prefix for completions,
allowing readine to fully insert the argument the user wanted.

When detaching the HEAD to the base commit, the "git checkout" command

did not have -q option, but there is no reason to keep doing it anymore.
Because we do not try computing merge base with itself for obvious
reasons, the code was not prepared for an arguably insane case of
the caller feeding the same commit twice to it.

help (Windows): Display HTML in default browser using Windows' shell API

directly on Windows, instead of launching git-web--browser, which

The Windows-specific code is implemented in compat/mingw.c to avoid
platform-specific code in the main code base. On Windows, open_html is
provided as a define. If open_html is not defined, git-web--browse is
used. This approach avoids platform-specific ifdefs by using

If you want to reuse the rerere cache in another repository, and set

The test created an initial commit, made .git/objects unwritable and then
exercised various codepaths to create loose commit, tree and blob objects
to make sure the commands notice failures from these attempts.
However, the initial commit was not preceded with test_tick, which made
its object name depend on the timestamp. The names of all the later tree
and blob objects the test tried to create were static. If the initial
commit's object name happened to begin with the same two hexdigits as the
tree or blob objects the test later attempted to create, the fan-out
directory in which these tree or blob would be created is already created
when the initial commit was made, and the object creation succeeds, and
commands being tested should not notice any failure --- in short, the test
was bogus.
This makes the fan-out directories also unwritable, and adds test_tick
before the commit object creation to make the test repeatable.
The contents of the file to create a blob from "a" to "60" is to force the
name of the blob object to begin with "1b", which shares the fan-out
directory with the initial commit that is created with the test. This was
useful when diagnosing the breakage of this test.

This "incremental" mode of patch application fundamentally contradicts

about a file A getting modified, and a new file B created out of A, like
this:

--- a/A
+++ b/A
... change text here ...
diff --git a/A b/B
copy from A
copy to B
--- a/A
+++ b/B
... change text here ...
the second change to produce B does not depend on what is done to A with
the first change in any way. This is explicitly done so for reviewability
of individual patches.
With this commit, we do not look at 'fn_table' that records the postimage
of previous round when applying a patch to produce a new file out of an

Correct pack memory leak causing git gc to try to exceed ulimit
When recursing to unpack a delta base we must unuse_pack() so that
the pack window for the current object does not remain pinned in
memory while the delta base is itself being unpacked and materialized
for our use.
On a long delta chain of 50 objects we may need to access 6 different
windows from a very large (>3G) pack file in order to obtain all
of the delta base content. If the process ulimit permits us to
map/allocate only 1.5G we must release windows during this recursion
to ensure we stay within the ulimit and transition memory from pack
cache to standard malloc, or other mmap needs.
Inserting an unuse_pack() call prior to the recursion allows us to
avoid pinning the current window, making it available for garbage
collection if memory runs low.
This has been broken since at least before 1.5.1-rc1, and very
likely earlier than that. Its fixed now. :)

"git-branch --merged" is a handy way to list all the branches that have
already been merged to the current branch, but it did not allow checking
against anything but the current branch. Having to switch branches only
to list the branches that are merged with another branch made the feature
practically useless.
This updates the option parser so that "git branch --merged next" is
accepted when you are on 'master' branch.
We used to require the name of the commit to limit the branches shown to
the --contains option, but more recent --merged/--no-meregd defaults to
HEAD (and they do not allow arbitrary commit, which is a separate issue).
This teaches --contains to default to HEAD when no parameter is given.
