When replacing an existing file A with a directory A that has a
file A/B in it in the index, 'update-index --replace --add A/B'
did not properly remove the file to make room for the new
directory.
There was a trivial logic error, most likely a cut & paste one,
dating back to quite early days of git.
When replacing an existing file A with a directory A that has a
file A/B in it in the index, 'git add' did not succeed because
it forgot to pass the allow-replace flag to add_cache_entry().
It might be safer to leave this as an error and require the user
to explicitly remove the existing A first before adding A/B
since it is an unusual case, but doing that automatically is
much easier to use.
update-index: make D/F conflict error a bit more verbose.
When you remove a directory D that has a tracked file D/F out of the
way to create a file D and try to "git update-index --add D", it used
to say "cannot add" which was not very helpful. This issues an extra
error message to explain the situation before the final "fatal" message.
Since D/F conflicts are relatively rare event, extra verbosity would
not make things too noisy.
git-clone: lose the traditional 'no-separate-remote' layout
Finally.
The separate-remote layout is so much more organized than
traditional and easier to work with especially when you need to
deal with remote repositories with multiple branches and/or you
need to deal with more than one remote repositories, and using
traditional layout for new repositories simply does not make
much sense.
Internally we still have code for 1:1 mappings to create a bare
clone; that is a good thing and will not go away.
git-clone: lose the artificial "first" fetch refspec
Now we lost the "first refspec is the one that is merged by default"
rule, there is no reason for clone to list the remote primary branch
in the config file explicitly anymore.
We still need it for the traditional layout for other reasons,
though.
git-pull: refuse default merge without branch.*.merge
Everybody hated the pull behaviour of merging the first branch
listed on remotes/* file (or remote.*.fetch config) into the
current branch. This finally corrects that UI wart by
forbidding "git pull" without an explicit branch name on the
command line or branch.$current.merge for the current branch.
The matching change to git-clone was made to prepare the default
branch.*.merge entry for the primary branch some time ago.
git-clone: use wildcard specification for tracking branches
This stops enumerating the set of branches found on the remote
side when a clone was made in the configuration file. Instead,
a single entry that maps each remote branch to the local
tracking branch for the remote under the same name is created.
Doing it this way not only shortens the configuration file, but
automatically adjusts to a new branch added on the remote side
after the clone is made.
Unfortunately this cannot be done for the traditional layout,
where we always need to special case the 'master' to 'origin'
mapping within the local branch namespace. But that is Ok; it
will be going away before v1.5.0.
We could also lose the "primary branch" mapping at the
beginning, but that has to wait until we implement the "forbid
'git pull' when we do not have branch.$current.merge for the
current branch" policy we earlier discussed. That should also
be in v1.5.0
Add a kind of "next" view in the bottom part of navigation bar for

git-svn: remove support for the svn command-line client

Align section headers of 'git status' to new 'git add'.
Now that 'git add' is considered a first-class UI for 'update-index'
and that the 'git add' documentation states "Even modified files
must be added to the set of changes about to be committed" we should
make the output of 'git status' align with that documentation and
common usage.
So now we see a status output such as:
# Added but not yet committed:
# (will commit)
#
# new file: x
#
# Changed but not added:
# (use "git add file1 file2" to include for commit)
#
# modified: x
#
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add" on files to include for commit)
#
# y
which just reads better in the context of using 'git add' to
manipulate a commit (and not a checkin, whatever the heck that is).
We also now support 'color.status.added' as an alias for the existing
'color.status.updated', as this alias more closely aligns with the
current output and documentation.

Suggest use of "git add file1 file2" when there is nothing to commit.
If a user modifies files and runs 'git commit' (without the very
useful -a option) and they have not yet updated the index they
are probably coming from another SCM-like tool which would perform
the same as 'git commit -a' in this case. Showing the user their
current status and a final line of "nothing to commit" is not very
reassuring, as the user might believe that Git did not recognize
their files were modified.
Instead we can suggest as part of the 'nothing to commit' message
that the user invoke 'git add' to add files to their next commit.

Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory.
New and experienced Git users alike are finding out too late that
they forgot to enable reflogs in the current repository, and cannot
use the information stored within it to recover from an incorrectly
entered command such as `git reset --hard HEAD^^^` when they really
meant HEAD^^ (aka HEAD~2).
So enable reflogs by default in all future versions of Git, unless
the user specifically disables it with:
[core]
logAllRefUpdates = false
in their .git/config or ~/.gitconfig.
We only enable reflogs in repositories that have a working directory
associated with them, as shared/bare repositories do not have
an easy means to prune away old log entries, or may fail logging
entirely if the user's gecos information is not valid during a push.
This heuristic was suggested on the mailing list by Junio.
Documentation was also updated to indicate the new default behavior.
We probably should start to teach usuing the reflog to recover
from mistakes in some of the tutorial material, as new users are
likely to make a few along the way and will feel better knowing
they can recover from them quickly and easily, without fsck-objects'
lost+found features.

Provide more meaningful output from 'git init-db'.
Back in the old days of Git when people messed around with their
GIT_DIR environment variable more often it was nice to know whether
or not git-init-db created a .git directory or used GIT_DIR.
As most users at that time were rather technical UNIXy folk the
message "defaulting to local storage area" made sense to some and
seemed reasonable.
But it doesn't really convey any meaning to the new Git user,
as they don't know what a 'local storage area is' nor do they
know enough about Git to care. It also really doesn't tell the
experienced Git user a whole lot about the command they just ran,
especially if they might be reinitializing an existing repository
(e.g. to update hooks).
So now we print out what we did ("Initialized empty" or
"Reinitialized existing"), what type of repository ("" or "shared"),
and what location the repository will be in ("$GIT_DIR").

Avoid accessing a slow working copy during diffcore operations.
The Cygwin folks have done a fine job at creating a POSIX layer
on Windows That Just Works(tm). However it comes with a penalty;
accessing files in the working tree by way of stat/open/mmap can
be slower for diffcore than inflating the data from a blob which
is stored in a packfile.
This performance problem is especially an issue in merge-recursive
when dealing with nearly 7000 added files, as we are loading
each file's content from the working directory to perform rename
detection. I have literally seen (and sadly watched) paint dry in
less time than it takes for merge-recursive to finish such a merge.
On the other hand this very same merge runs very fast on Solaris.
If Git is compiled with NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY set then we will
avoid looking at the working directory when the blob in question
is available within a packfile and the caller doesn't need the data
unpacked into a temporary file.
We don't use loose objects as they have the same open/mmap/close
costs as the working directory file access, but have the additional
CPU overhead of needing to inflate the content before use. So it
is still faster to use the working tree file over the loose object.
If the caller needs the file data unpacked into a temporary file
its likely because they are going to call an external diff program,
passing the file as a parameter. In this case reusing the working
tree file will be faster as we don't need to inflate the data and
write it out to a temporary file.
The NO_FAST_WORKING_DIRECTORY feature is enabled by default on
Cygwin, as that is the platform which currently appears to benefit
the most from this option.

Sometimes it is asked on the list how to revert selected path in
the index from a tree, most often HEAD, without affecting the
files in the working tree. A similar operation that also
affects the working tree files has been available in the form of
"git checkout <tree> -- <paths>...".
By definition --soft would never affect either the index nor the
working tree files, and --hard is the way to make the working
tree files as close to pristine, so this new option is available
only for the default --mixed case.
Bypass expensive content comparsion during rename detection.
When comparing file contents during the second loop through a rename
detection attempt we can skip the expensive byte-by-byte comparsion
if both source and destination files have valid SHA1 values. This
improves performance by avoiding either an expensive open/mmap to
read the working tree copy, or an expensive inflate of a blob object.
Unfortunately we still have to at least initialize the sizes of the
source and destination files even if the SHA1 values don't match.
Failing to initialize the sizes causes a number of test cases to fail
and start reporting different copy/rename behavior than was expected.

"git push $URL HEAD~6" created a bogus ref HEAD~6 immediately
under $GIT_DIR of the remote repository. While we should keep
refspecs that have arbitrary extended SHA-1 expression on the
source side working (e.g. "HEAD~6:refs/tags/yesterday"), we
should not create bogus ref on the other end.
The documentation talked about "git push $URL tag <tag>" as a short-hand
for refs/tags/<tag>:refs/tags/<tag> for a long time but that was never
the case (the short-hand was for "git fetch"). Instead of fixing the
documentation, just add a bit of code to match it since it is easy to do
and would make it more consistent.
This is just a random hack to work around problems people seem
to be seeing in manpage backend of xmlto (it appears we are

Allow subcommand.color and color.subcommand color configuration
While adding colour to the branch command it was pointed out that a
config option like "branch.color" conflicts with the pre-existing
"branch.something" namespace used for specifying default merge urls and

I haven't removed the old config options; but they should probably be

collisions. I've done this deprecation by changing the documentation

that someone might be using the output in a script. This patch
addresses the problem by colouring the git-branch output - which in

I've based it off the colouring code for builtin-diff.c; which means
there is a branch color configuration variable that needs setting to

The colour parameter is "color.branch" rather than "branch.color" to
avoid clashing with the default namespace for default branch merge
definitions.

gitweb: SHA-1 in commit log message links to "object" view
Instead of checking if explicit SHA-1 in commit log message is sha1 of
commit and making link to "commit" view, make [fragment of] explicit
SHA-1 in commit log message link to "object" view. While at it allow

instead of requiring full 40 characters of SHA-1.
This makes the following changes:
* SHA-1 of objects which no longer exists, for example in commit
cherry-picked from no longer existing temporary branch, or revert
of commit in rebased branch, are no longer marked as such by not
being made into hyperlink (and not having default hyperlink view:
being underlined among others). On the other hand it makes gitweb
to not write error messages when object is not found to web serwer
log; it also moves cost of getting type and SHA-1 validation to
when link is clicked, and not only viewed.
* SHA-1 of other objects: blobs, trees, tags are also hyperlinked
and lead to appropriate view (although in the case of tags it is
more natural to just use tag name).
* You can put shortened SHA-1 of commit in the commit message, and it
would be hyperlinked; it would be checked on clicking if abbrev is
unique.

Make sure the empty tree exists when needed in merge-recursive.
There are some baseless merge cases where git-merge-recursive will
try to compare one of the branches against the empty tree. However
most projects won't have the empty tree object in their object database
as Git does not normally create empty tree objects. If the empty tree
object is missing then the merge process will die, as it cannot load the
object from the database. The error message may make the user think that
their database is corrupt when its actually not.
So instead we should just create the empty tree object whenever it is
needed. If the object already exists as a loose object then no harm
done. Otherwise that loose object will be pruned away later by either
git-prune or git-prune-packed.

The reason for this was because an inexperienced user might
mistakenly think what is shown with the last-minute diff
contains all the change that is being committed (instead, what
the user asked to check was an incremental diff since what has

people who know what they are doing. Inexperienced people

case they would see the full changes in the "git diff".

The old code looked backwards from the email address to parse the name,
allowing an arbitrary number of spaces between the two. However, in the case
of no name, we looked back too far to the 'author' (or 'Author:') header.
Instead, remove at most one space between name and address.
The bug was triggered by commit febf7ea4bed from linux-2.6.

Add branch.*.merge warning and documentation update
This patch clarifies the meaning of the branch.*.merge option.
Previously, if branch.*.merge was specified but did not match any
ref, the message "No changes." was not really helpful regarding
the misconfiguration. This patch adds a warning for this.

An earlier commit f848718a broke the build in perl/ directory by
allowing the Makefile.PL to overwrite the now-tracked Makefile.
Fix this by forcing Makefile.PL to produce its output in
perl.mak as the broken commit originally intended.
