People answer 'y' to "Who should the emails appear to be from?" and
'n' to "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the first email?"
for some unknown reason. While it is possible that your local
username really is "y" and you are sending the mail to your local
colleagues, it is possible, and some might even say it is likely,
that it is a user error.
Fortunately, our interactive prompter already has input validation
mechanism built-in. Enhance it so that we can optionally reconfirm
and allow the user to pass an input that does not validate, and
"softly" require input to the sender, in-reply-to, and recipient to
contain "@" and "." in this order, which would catch most cases of
mistakes.
The sendemail.multiedit variable is meant to be a boolean.
However, it is not marked as such in the code, which means
we store its value literally. Thus in the do_edit function,
perl ends up coercing it to a boolean value according to
perl rules, not git rules. This works for "0", but "false",
"no", or "off" will erroneously be interpreted as true.

Unfortunately it made fallback mode of to_utf8 do not work... except
for default value 'latin1' of $fallback_encoding ('latin1' is Perl
native encoding), which is why it was not noticed for such long time.
utf8::valid(STRING) is an internal function that tests whether STRING
is in a _consistent state_ regarding UTF-8. It returns true is
well-formed UTF-8 and has the UTF-8 flag on _*or*_ if string is held
as bytes (both these states are 'consistent'). For gitweb the second
option was true, as output from git commands is opened without ':utf8'
layer.
What made it work at all for STRING in 'latin1' encoding is the fact
that utf8:decode(STRING) turns on UTF-8 flag only if source string is
valid UTF-8 and contains multi-byte UTF-8 characters... and that if
string doesn't have UTF-8 flag set it is treated as in native Perl
encoding, i.e. 'latin1' / 'iso-8859-1' (unless native encoding it is
EBCDIC ;-)). It was ':utf8' layer that actually converted 'latin1'
(no UTF-8 flag == native == 'latin1) to 'utf8'.
Let's make use of the fact that utf8:decode(STRING) returns false if
STRING is invalid as UTF-8 to check whether to enable fallback mode.

When receive-pack advertises its list of refs, it generally hides the
capabilities information after a NUL at the end of the first ref.
However, when we have an empty repository, there are no refs, and
therefore receive-pack writes a fake ref "capabilities^{}" with the
capabilities afterwards.
On the client side, git reads the result with get_remote_heads(). We pick
the capabilities from the end of the line, and then call check_ref() to
make sure the ref name is valid. We see that it isn't, and don't bother
adding it to our list of refs.
However, the call to check_ref() is enabled by passing the REF_NORMAL flag
to get_remote_heads. For the regular git transport, we pass REF_NORMAL in
get_refs_via_connect() if we are doing a push (since only receive-pack
uses this fake ref). But in remote-curl, we never use this flag, and we
accept the fake ref as a real one, passing it back from the helper to the
parent git-push.
Most of the time this bug goes unnoticed, as the fake ref won't match our
refspecs. However, if "--mirror" is used, then we see it as remote cruft
to be pruned, and try to pass along a deletion refspec for it. Of course
this refspec has bogus syntax (because of the ^{}), and the helper
complains, aborting the push.
Let's have remote-curl mirror what the builtin get_refs_via_connect() does
(at least for the case of using git protocol; we can leave the dumb
info/refs reader as it is).
This also fixes pushing with --mirror to a smart-http remote that uses
alternates. The fake ".have" refs the server gives to avoid unnecessary
network transfer has a similar bad interactions with the machinery.

The non-streaming version of the filter counts CRLF and LF in the whole

people who added files from the DOS world before realizing they want to go
cross platform and adding .gitattributes to tell Git that they only want
CRLF in their working tree.
The streaming version of the filter does not want to read the whole thing
before starting to work, as that defeats the whole point of streaming. So
we instead check what byte follows CR whenever we see one, and add CR
before LF only when the LF does not immediately follow CR already to keep
CRLF as is.

Providing a single "-v" to "git push" currently does
nothing. Giving two flags ("git push -v -v") turns on the
first level of verbosity.
This is caused by a regression introduced in 8afd8dc (push:
support multiple levels of verbosity, 2010-02-24). Before
the series containing 8afd8dc, the verbosity handling for
fetching and pushing was completely separate. Commit bde873c
refactored the verbosity handling out of the fetch side, and
then 8afd8dc converted push to use the refactored code.
However, the fetch and push sides numbered and passed along
their verbosity levels differently. For both, a verbosity
level of "-1" meant "quiet", and "0" meant "default output".
But from there they differed.
For fetch, a verbosity level of "1" indicated to the "fetch"
program that it should make the status table slightly more
verbose, showing up-to-date entries. A verbosity level of
"2" meant that we should pass a verbose flag to the
transport; in the case of fetch-pack, this displays protocol
debugging information.
As a result, the refactored code in bde873c checks for
"verbosity >= 2", and only then passes it on to the
transport. From the transport code's perspective, a
verbosity of 0 or 1 both meant "0".
Push, on the other hand, does not show its own status table;
that is always handled by the transport layer or below
(originally send-pack itself, but these days it is done by
the transport code). So a verbosity level of 1 meant that we
should pass the verbose flag to send-pack, so that it knows
we want a verbose status table. However, once 8afd8dc
switched it to the refactored fetch code, a verbosity level
of 1 was now being ignored. Thus, you needed to
artificially bump the verbosity to 2 (via "-v -v") to have
any effect.
We can fix this by letting the transport code know about the
true verbosity level (i.e., let it distinguish level 0 or
1).
We then have to also make an adjustment to any transport
methods that assumed "verbose > 0" meant they could spew
lots of debugging information. Before, they could only get
"0" or "2", but now they will also receive "1". They need to
adjust their condition for turning on such spew from
"verbose > 0" to "verbose > 1".

If you provide a custom rename score on the command line,
like:
git log -M50 --follow foo.c
it is completely ignored, and there is no way to --follow
with a looser rename score. Instead, let's use the same
rename score that will be used for generating diffs. This is
convenient, and mirrors what we do with the break-score.
You can see an example of it being useful in git.git:

You could have two separate rename scores, one for following
and one for diff. But almost nobody is going to want that,
and it would just be unnecessarily confusing. Besides which,
we re-use the diff results from try_to_follow_renames for
the actual diff output, which means having them as separate
scores is actively wrong. E.g., with the current code, you
get:
$ git log --oneline --diff-filter=R --name-status \
-M90 --follow git.spec.in 27dedf0 GIT 0.99.9j aka 1.0rc3
R084 git-core.spec.in git.spec.in f85639c Rename the RPM from "git" to "git-core"
R098 git.spec.in git-core.spec.in
The first one should not be considered a rename by the -M
score we gave, but we print it anyway, since we blindly
re-use the diff information from the follow (which uses the
default score). So this could also be considered simply a
bug-fix, as with the current code "-M" is completely ignored
when using "--follow".

Before commit 986bbc08, git was proactive about asking for
http passwords. It assumed that if you had a username in
your URL, you would also want a password, and asked for it
before making any http requests.
However, this could interfere with the use of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for details). And it was also unnecessary, since
the http fetching code had learned to recognize an HTTP 401
and prompt the user then. Furthermore, the proactive prompt
could interfere with the usage of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for
details).
Unfortunately, the http push-over-DAV code never learned to
recognize HTTP 401, and so was broken by this change. This
patch does a quick fix of re-enabling the "proactive auth"
strategy only for http-push, leaving the dumb http fetch and
smart-http as-is.

authenticate pushes.
Two of the tests expect_failure as they reveal bugs:
1. Pushing without a username in the URL fails to ask for
credentials when we get an HTTP 401. This has always
been the case, but it would be nice if it worked like
smart-http.
2. Pushing with a username fails to ask for the password
since 986bbc0 (http: don't always prompt for password,
2011-11-04). This is a severe regression in v1.7.8, as
authenticated push-over-DAV is now totally unusable
unless you have credentials in your .netrc.

This function was used for comparing local and remote ref
names during fetch (which makes it a candidate for "most
confusingly named function of the year").

Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
When we are determining the list of refs to fetch via
fetch-pack, we have two sets of refs to compare: those on
the remote side, and a "match" list of things we want to
fetch. We iterate through the remote refs alphabetically,
seeing if each one is wanted by the "match" list.
Since def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack",
2005-07-04), we have used the "path_match" function to do a
suffix match, where a remote ref is considered wanted if
any of the "match" elements is a suffix of the remote
refname.
This enables callers of fetch-pack to specify unqualified
refs and have them matched up with remote refs (e.g., ask
for "A" and get remote's "refs/heads/A"). However, if you
provide a fully qualified ref, then there are corner cases
where we provide the wrong answer. For example, given a
remote with two refs:
refs/foo/refs/heads/master
refs/heads/master
asking for "refs/heads/master" will first match
"refs/foo/refs/heads/master" by the suffix rule, and we will
erroneously fetch it instead of refs/heads/master.
As it turns out, all callers of fetch_pack do provide
fully-qualified refs for the match list. There are two ways
fetch_pack can get match lists:
1. Through the transport code (i.e., via git-fetch)
2. On the command-line of git-fetch-pack
In the first case, we will always be providing the names of
fully-qualified refs from "struct ref" objects. We will have
pre-matched those ref objects already (since we have to
handle more advanced matching, like wildcard refspecs), and
are just providing a list of the refs whose objects we need.
In the second case, users could in theory be providing
non-qualified refs on the command-line. However, the
fetch-pack documentation claims that refs should be fully
qualified (and has always done so since it was written in
2005).
Let's change this path_match call to simply check for string
equality, matching what the callers of fetch_pack are
expecting.

The fetch-pack documentation is very clear that refs given

The remote heads to update from. This is relative to
$GIT_DIR (e.g. "HEAD", "refs/heads/master"). When
unspecified, update from all heads the remote side has.
and this has been the case since fetch-pack was originally documented in 8b3d9dc ([PATCH] Documentation: clone/fetch/upload., 2005-07-14).
Let's follow our own documentation to set a good example,
and to avoid breaking when this restriction is enforced in
the next patch.

The get_remote_heads function reads the list of remote refs
during git protocol session. It dates all the way back to def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack", 2005-07-04).
At that time, the idea was to come up with a list of refs we
were interested in, and then filter the list as we got it
from the remote side.
Later, 1baaae5 (Make maximal use of the remote refs,
2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.
As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

When the user forces the overwrite, we give a warning:

revert: do not remove state until sequence is finished
As v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~4 (2011-08-04) explains, git cherry-pick removes
the sequencer state just before applying the final patch. In the
single-pick case, that was a good thing, since --abort and --continue
work fine without access to such state and removing it provides a
signal that git should not complain about the need to clobber it ("a
cherry-pick or revert is already in progress") in sequences like the
following:
git cherry-pick foo
git read-tree -m -u HEAD; # forget that; let's try a different one

After the recent patch "allow single-pick in the middle of cherry-pick
sequence" we don't need that hack any more. In the new regime, a
traditional "git cherry-pick <commit>" command never looks at
.git/sequencer, so we do not need to cripple "git cherry-pick
<commit>..<commit>" for it any more.
So now you can run "git cherry-pick --abort" near the end of a
multi-pick sequence and it will abort the entire sequence, instead of
misbehaving and aborting just the final commit.

revert: pass around rev-list args in already-parsed form
Since 7e2bfd3f (revert: allow cherry-picking more than one commit,
2010-07-02), the pick/revert machinery has kept track of the set of
commits to be cherry-picked or reverted using commit_argc and
commit_argv variables, storing the corresponding command-line
parameters.
Future callers as other commands are built in (am, rebase, sequencer)
may find it easier to pass rev-list options to this machinery in
already-parsed form. Teach cmd_cherry_pick and cmd_revert to parse
the rev-list arguments in advance and pass the commit set to
pick_revisions() as a rev_info structure.
Original patch by Jonathan, tweaks and test from Ram.
