Tweak the --topo/date-order test vector a bit and mark the author
dates of two commits (a2 and a3) earlier than their own committer
dates, making them much older than other commits that are made on
parallel branches to simulate the case where a long running topic
was rebased recently.
They will show up as recent in the --date-order output due to their
timestamps, but they appear a lot later in the --author-date-order
output, even though their committer timestamp says otherwise.
The "--date-order" output is a slight twist of "--topo-order" in
that commits from parallel histories are shown in their committer
date order without an attempt to clump commits from a single line
of history together like --topo-order does.
topology tests: teach a helper to take abbreviated timestamps
The on_committer_date helper in t/lib-t6000 is used in t6002 and
t6003 with timestamps on a single day within a single minute
(i.e. 1971-08-16 00:00) and the tests repeat this over and over.
The actual value of the timestamp, however, does not matter very
much; only their relative ordering does.
Introduce another helper to expand only the suffix of the timestamp
to a full timestamp to make the lines shorter, and use it in this
helper. Also, because all the commits in the test are made with
specific GIT_COMMITTER_DATE, stop unsetting it at the end of the
helper.
We'll be specifying the author timestamp to these test commits in a
later patch, which will be helped with this change.
Also remove a test that was commented-out from t6003; it used to
test a commit with the same parent listed twice, which was allowed
by mistake but was fixed long time ago.

transport-helper: be quiet on read errors from helpers
Prior to commit 81d340d4, we did not print any error message
if a remote transport helper died unexpectedly. If a helper
did not print any error message (e.g., because it crashed),
the user could be left confused. That commit tried to
rectify the situation by printing a note that the helper
exited unexpectedly.
However, this makes a much more common case worse: when a
helper does die with a useful message, we print the extra
"Reading from 'git-remote-foo failed" message. This can also
end up confusing users, as they may not even know what
remote helpers are (e.g., the fact that http support comes
through git-remote-https is purely an implementation detail
that most users do not know or care about).
Since we do not have a good way of knowing whether the
helper printed a useful error, and since the common failure
mode is for it to do so, let's default to remaining quiet.
Debuggers can dig further by setting GIT_TRANSPORT_HELPER_DEBUG.

pull: merge into unborn by fast-forwarding from empty tree
The logic for pulling into an unborn branch was originally
designed to be used on a newly-initialized repository
(d09e79c, git-pull: allow pulling into an empty repository,
2006-11-16). It thus did not initially deal with
uncommitted changes in the unborn branch. The case of an
_unstaged_ untracked file was fixed by 4b3ffe5 (pull: do not
clobber untracked files on initial pull, 2011-03-25).
However, it still clobbered existing staged files, both when
the file exists in the merged commit (it will be
overwritten), and when it does not (it will be deleted).
We fix this by doing a two-way merge, where the "current"
side of the merge is an empty tree, and the "target" side is
HEAD (already updated to FETCH_HEAD at this point). This
amounts to claiming that all work in the index was done vs.
an empty tree, and thus all content of the index is
precious.
Note that this use of read-tree just gives us protection
against overwriting index and working tree changes. It will
not actually result in a 3-way merge conflict in the index.
This is fine, as this is a rare situation, and the conflict
would not be interesting anyway (it must, by definition, be
an add/add conflict with the whole content conflicting). And
it makes it simpler for the user to recover, as they have no
HEAD to "git reset" back to.

When commit d09e79c taught git to pull into an unborn
branch, it first updated the unborn branch to point at the
pulled commit, and then used read-tree to update the index
and working tree. That ordering made sense, since any
failure of the latter step would be due to filesystem
errors, and one could then recover with "git reset --hard".
Later, commit 4b3ffe5 added extra safety for existing files
in the working tree by asking read-tree to bail out when it
would overwrite such a file. This error mode is much less
"your pull failed due to random errors" and more like "we
reject this pull because it would lose data". In that case,
it makes sense not to update the HEAD ref, just as a regular
rejected merge would do.
This patch reverses the order of the update-ref and
read-tree calls, so that we do not touch the HEAD ref at all if a
merge is rejected. This also means that we would not update
HEAD in case of a transient filesystem error, but those are
presumably less rare (and one can still recover by repeating
the pull, or by accessing FETCH_HEAD directly).
While we're reorganizing the code, we can drop the "exit 1"
from the end of our command chain. We exit immediately
either way, and just calling exit without an argument will
use the exit code from the last command.

for_each_ref: load all loose refs before packed refs
If we are iterating through the refs using for_each_ref (or
any of its sister functions), we can get into a race
condition with a simultaneous "pack-refs --prune" that looks
like this:
0. We have a large number of loose refs, and a few packed
refs. refs/heads/z/foo is loose, with no matching entry
in the packed-refs file.
1. Process A starts iterating through the refs. It loads
the packed-refs file from disk, then starts lazily
traversing through the loose ref directories.
2. Process B, running "pack-refs --prune", writes out the
new packed-refs file. It then deletes the newly packed
refs, including refs/heads/z/foo.
3. Meanwhile, process A has finally gotten to
refs/heads/z (it traverses alphabetically). It
descends, but finds nothing there. It checks its
cached view of the packed-refs file, but it does not
mention anything in "refs/heads/z/" at all (it predates
the new file written by B in step 2).
The traversal completes successfully without mentioning
refs/heads/z/foo at all (the name, of course, isn't
important; but the more refs you have and the farther down
the alphabetical list a ref is, the more likely it is to hit
the race). If refs/heads/z/foo did exist in the packed refs
file at state 0, we would see an entry for it, but it would
show whatever sha1 the ref had the last time it was packed
(which could be an arbitrarily long time ago).
This can be especially dangerous when process A is "git
prune", as it means our set of reachable tips will be
incomplete, and we may erroneously prune objects reachable
from that tip (the same thing can happen if "repack -ad" is
used, as it simply drops unreachable objects that are
packed).
This patch solves it by loading all of the loose refs for
our traversal into our in-memory cache, and then refreshing
the packed-refs cache. Because a pack-refs writer will
always put the new packed-refs file into place before
starting the prune, we know that any loose refs we fail to
see will either truly be missing, or will have already been
put in the packed-refs file by the time we refresh.

get_packed_ref_cache: reload packed-refs file when it changes
Once we read the packed-refs file into memory, we cache it
to save work on future ref lookups. However, our cache may
be out of date with respect to what is on disk if another
process is simultaneously packing the refs. Normally it
is acceptable for us to be a little out of date, since there
is no guarantee whether we read the file before or after the
simultaneous update. However, there is an important special
case: our packed-refs file must be up to date with respect
to any loose refs we read. Otherwise, we risk the following
race condition:
0. There exists a loose ref refs/heads/master.
1. Process A starts and looks up the ref "master". It
first checks $GIT_DIR/master, which does not exist. It
then loads (and caches) the packed-refs file to see if
"master" exists in it, which it does not.
2. Meanwhile, process B runs "pack-refs --all --prune". It
creates a new packed-refs file which contains
refs/heads/master, and removes the loose copy at
$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master.
3. Process A continues its lookup, and eventually tries
$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/master. It sees that the loose ref
is missing, and falls back to the packed-refs file. But
it examines its cached version, which does not have
refs/heads/master. After trying a few other prefixes,
it reports master as a non-existent ref.
There are many variants (e.g., step 1 may involve process A
looking up another ref entirely, so even a fully qualified
refname can fail). One of the most interesting ones is if
"refs/heads/master" is already packed. In that case process
A will not see it as missing, but rather will report
whatever value happened to be in the packed-refs file before
process B repacked (which might be an arbitrarily old
value).
We can fix this by making sure we reload the packed-refs
file from disk after looking at any loose refs. That's
unacceptably slow, so we can check its stat()-validity as a
proxy, and read it only when it appears to have changed.
Reading the packed-refs file after performing any loose-ref
system calls is sufficient because we know the ordering of
the pack-refs process: it always makes sure the newly
written packed-refs file is installed into place before
pruning any loose refs. As long as those operations by B
appear in their executed order to process A, by the time A
sees the missing loose ref, the new packed-refs file must be
in place.

It can sometimes be useful to know whether a path in the
filesystem has been updated without going to the work of
opening and re-reading its content. We trust the stat()

This patch introduces a "stat_validity" struct which

The goal of the patch is to introduce the GNU diff
-B/--ignore-blank-lines as closely as possible. The short option is not
available because it's already used for "break-rewrites".
When this option is used, git-diff will not create hunks that simply
add or remove empty lines, but will still show empty lines
addition/suppression if they are close enough to "valuable" changes.
There are two differences between this option and GNU diff -B option:
- GNU diff doesn't have "--inter-hunk-context", so this must be handled
- The following sequence looks like a bug (context is displayed twice):
So here is a more thorough description of the option:
- real changes are interesting
- blank lines that are close enough (less than context size) to
interesting changes are considered interesting (recursive definition)
- "context" lines are used around each hunk of interesting changes
- If two hunks are separated by less than "inter-hunk-context", they
will be merged into one.
The implementation does the "interesting changes selection" in a single
pass.

resolve_ref_unsafe(): close race condition reading loose refs
We read loose references in two steps. The code is roughly:
lstat()
if error ENOENT:
loose ref is missing; look for corresponding packed ref
else if S_ISLNK:
readlink()
if error:
report failure
else if S_ISDIR:
report failure
else
open()
if error:
report failure
read()
The problem is that the first filesystem call, to lstat(), is not
atomic with the second filesystem call, to readlink() or open().
Therefore it is possible for another process to change the file
between our two calls, for example:
* If the other process deletes the file, our second call will fail
with ENOENT, which we *should* interpret as "loose ref is missing;
look for corresponding packed ref". This can arise if the other
process is pack-refs; it might have just written a new packed-refs
file containing the old contents of the reference then deleted the
loose ref.
* If the other process changes a symlink into a plain file, our call
to readlink() will fail with EINVAL, which we *should* respond to by
trying to open() and read() the file.
The old code treats the reference as missing in both of these cases,
which is incorrect.
So instead, handle errors more selectively: if the result of
readline()/open() is a failure that is inconsistent with the result of
the previous lstat(), then something is fishy. In this case jump back
and start over again with a fresh call to lstat().
One race is still possible and undetected: another process could
change the file from a regular file into a symlink between the call to
lstat and the call to open(). The open() call would silently follow
the symlink and not know that something is wrong. This situation
could be detected in two ways:
* On systems that support O_NOFOLLOW, pass that option to the open().
* On other systems, call fstat() on the fd returned by open() and make
sure that it agrees with the stat info from the original lstat().
However, we don't use symlinks anymore, so this situation is unlikely.
Moreover, it doesn't appear that treating a symlink as a regular file
would have grave consequences; after all, this is exactly how the code
handles non-relative symlinks. So this commit leaves that race
unaddressed.
Note that this solves only the part of the race within
resolve_ref_unsafe. In the situation described above, we may still be
depending on a cached view of the packed-refs file; that race will be
dealt with in a future patch.
This problem was reported and diagnosed by Jeff King <peff@peff.net>,
and this solution is derived from his patch.

http.c: don't rewrite the user:passwd string multiple times
Curl older than 7.17 (RHEL 4.X provides 7.12 and RHEL 5.X provides
7.15) requires that we manage any strings that we pass to it as
pointers. So, we really shouldn't be modifying this strbuf after we
have passed it to curl.
Our interaction with curl is currently safe (before or after this
patch) since the pointer that is passed to curl is never invalidated;
it is repeatedly rewritten with the same sequence of characters but
the strbuf functions never need to allocate a larger string, so the
same memory buffer is reused.
This "guarantee" of safety is somewhat subtle and could be overlooked
by someone who may want to add a more complex handling of the username
and password. So, let's stop modifying this strbuf after we have
passed it to curl, but also leave a note to describe the assumptions
that have been made about username/password lifetime and to draw

Documentation/git-merge.txt: weaken warning about uncommited changes
Commit 35d2fffd introduced 'git merge --abort' as a synonym to 'git reset
--merge', and added some failing tests in t7611-merge-abort.sh (search
'###' in this file) showing that 'git merge --abort' could not always
recover the pre-merge state.
Still, in many cases, 'git merge --abort' just works, and it is usually
considered that the ability to start a merge with uncommited changes is
an important property of Git.
Weaken the warning by discouraging only merge with /non-trivial/
uncommited changes.

t/t9802: explicitly name the upstream branch to use as a base
Prior to commit fa83a33b, the 'git checkout' DWIMery would create a
new local branch if the specified branch name did not exist and it
matched exactly one ref in the "remotes" namespace. It searched
the "remotes" namespace for matching refs using a simple comparison
of the trailing portion of the remote ref names. This approach
could sometimes produce false positives or negatives.
Since fa83a33b, the DWIMery more strictly excludes the remote name
from the ref comparison by iterating through the remotes that are
configured in the .gitconfig file. This has the side-effect that
any refs that exist in the "remotes" namespace, but do not match
the destination side of any remote refspec, will not be used by
the DWIMery.
This change in behavior breaks the tests in t9802 which relied on
the old behavior of searching all refs in the remotes namespace,
since the git-p4 script does not configure any remotes in the
.gitconfig. Let's work around this in these tests by explicitly
naming the upstream branch to base the new local branch on when
calling 'git checkout'.

rebase topology tests: fix commit names on case-insensitive file systems
The recently introduced tests used uppercase letters to denote
cherry-picks of commits having the corresponding lowercase letter names.
The helper functions also set up tags with the names of the commits.
But this constellation fails on case-insensitive file systems because
there cannot be distinct tags with names that differ only in case.
Use a less subtle convention for the names of cherry-picked commits.

builtin/checkout.c: don't leak memory in check_tracking_name
remote_find_tracking() populates the query struct with an allocated
string in the dst member. So, we do not need to xstrdup() the string,
since we can transfer ownership from the query struct (which will go
out of scope at the end of this function) to our callback struct, but
we must free the string if it will not be used so we will not leak
memory.
Let's do so.

Use the new rev-parse --prefix option to process all paths given to the
submodule command, dropping the requirement that it be run from the
top-level of the repository.
Since the interpretation of a relative submodule URL depends on whether

in "git submodule add" when not at the top level of the working tree.

rebase has no reason to know about the implementation of the stash. In
the case when applying the autostash results in conflicts, replace the
relevant code in finish_rebase () to simply call 'git stash store'.

save_stash() contains the logic for doing two potentially independent
operations; the first is preparing the stash merge commit, and the
second is updating the stash ref/ reflog accordingly. While the first
operation is abstracted out into a create_stash() for callers to access
via 'git stash create', the second one is not. Fix this by factoring
out the logic for storing the stash into a store_stash() that callers
can access via 'git stash store'.
Like create, store is not intended for end user interactive use, but for
callers in other scripts. We can simplify the logic in the
rebase.autostash feature using this new subcommand.

$ git am # no input file
^C
$ git am --abort
Resolve operation not in progress, we are not resuming.
This happens because the following test fails:
test -d "$dotest" && test -f "$dotest/last" && test -f "$dotest/next"
and the codepath for an "am in-progress" is not executed. It falls back
to the codepath that treats this as a "fresh execution". Before
rr/rebase-autostash, this condition was
test -d "$dotest"
It would incorrectly execute the "normal" am --abort codepath:
git read-tree --reset -u HEAD ORIG_HEAD
git reset ORIG_HEAD
by incorrectly assuming that an am is "in progress" (i.e. ORIG_HEAD
etc. was written during the previous execution).
Notice that
$ git am
^C
executes nothing of significance, is equivalent to
$ mkdir .git/rebase-apply
Therefore, the correct solution is to treat .git/rebase-apply as a
"stray directory" and remove it on --abort in the fresh-execution
codepath. Also ensure that we're not called with --rebasing from
git-rebase--am.sh; in that case, it is the responsibility of the caller
to handle and stray directories.
While at it, tell the user to run "git am --abort" to get rid of the
stray $dotest directory, if she attempts anything else.

unpack_entry: do not die when we fail to apply a delta
When we try to load an object from disk and fail, our
general strategy is to see if we can get it from somewhere
else (e.g., a loose object). That lets users fix corruption
problems by copying known-good versions of objects into the
object database.
We already handle the case where we were not able to read
the delta from disk. However, when we find that the delta we
read does not apply, we simply die. This case is harder to
trigger, as corruption in the delta data itself would
trigger a crc error from zlib. However, a corruption that
pointed us at the wrong delta base might cause it.
We can do the same "fail and try to find the object
elsewhere" trick instead of dying. This not only gives us a
chance to recover, but also puts us on code paths that will
alert the user to the problem (with the current message,
they do not even know which sha1 caused the problem).
Note that unlike some other pack corruptions, we do not
recover automatically from this case when doing a repack.
There is nothing apparently wrong with the delta, as it
points to a valid, accessible object, and we realize the
error only when the resulting size does not match up. And in
theory, one could even have a case where the corrupted size
is the same, and the problem would only be noticed by
recomputing the sha1.
We can get around this by recomputing the deltas with
--no-reuse-delta, which our test does (and this is probably
good advice for anyone recovering from pack corruption).

This test corrupts pack objects by using "dd" with a seek
command. It passes "count=1 bs=1" to munge just a single
byte. However, the test added in commit b3118bdc wants to
munge two bytes, and the second byte of corruption is
silently ignored.
This turned out not to impact the test, however. The idea
was to reduce the "size of this entry" part of the header so
that zlib runs out of input bytes while inflating the entry.
That header is two bytes long, and the test reduced the
value of both bytes; since we experience the problem if we
are off by even 1 byte, it is sufficient to munge only the
first one.
Even though the test would have worked with only a single
byte munged, and we could simply tweak the test to use a
single byte, it makes sense to lift this 1-byte restriction
from do_corrupt_object. It will allow future tests that do
need to change multiple bytes to do so.

t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: configure an MPM module for apache 2.4
Versions of Apache before 2.4 always had a "MultiProcessing
Module" (MPM) statically built in, which manages the worker
threads/processes. We do not care which one, as it is
largely a performance issue, and we put only a light load on
the server during our testing.
As of Apache 2.4, the MPM module is loadable just like any
other module, but exactly one such module must be loaded. On
a system where the MPMs are compiled dynamically (e.g.,
Debian unstable), this means that our test Apache server
will not start unless we provide the appropriate
configuration.
Unfortunately, we do not actually know which MPM modules are
available or appropriate for the system on which the tests
are running. This patch picks the "prefork" module, as it
is likely to be available on all Unix-like systems.
