Documentation: Fix man page breakage with DocBook XSL v1.72
From version 1.72 it will replace all dots in roff requests with U+2302
("house" character), and add escaping in output for all instances of dot
that are not in roff requests. This caused the ".ft" hack forcing
monospace font in listingblocks to end up as "\&.ft" and being visible
in the resulting man page.
The fix adds a DOCBOOK_XSL_172 build variable that will disable the
hack. To allow this variable to be defined in config.mak it also moves
build variable handling below the inclusion of config.mak.

Solaris 9's vsnprintf implementation returns -1 if we pass it a
buffer of length 0. The only way to get it to give us the actual
length necessary for the formatted string is to grow the buffer
out to have at least 1 byte available in the strbuf and then ask
it to compute the length.
If the available space is 0 I'm growing it out by 64 to ensure
we will get an accurate length estimate from all implementations.
Some callers may need to grow the strbuf again but 64 should be a
reasonable enough initial growth.
We also no longer silently fail to append to the string when we are
faced with a broken vsnprintf implementation. On Solaris 9 this
silent failure caused me to no longer be able to execute "git clone"
as we tried to exec the empty string rather than "git-clone".

Don't allow fast-import tree delta chains to exceed maximum depth
Brian Downing noticed fast-import can produce tree depths of up
to 6,035 objects and even deeper. Long delta chains can create
very small packfiles but cause problems during repacking as git
needs to unpack each tree to count the reachable blobs.
What's happening here is the active branch cache isn't big enough.
We're swapping out the branch and thus recycling the tree information
(struct tree_content) back into the free pool. When we later reload
the tree we set the delta_depth to 0 but we kept the tree we just
reloaded as a delta base.
So if the tree we reloaded was already at the maximum depth we
wouldn't know it and make the new tree a delta. Multiply the
number of times the branch cache has to swap out the tree times
max_depth (10) and you get the maximum delta depth of a tree created
by fast-import. In Brian's case above the active branch cache had
to swap the branch out 603/604 times during this import to produce
a tree with a delta depth of 6035.

Resurrect git-revert.sh example and add comment to builtin-revert.c
I had to scratch my head for quite some time figuring out why we
cannot optimize out write_tree() we do when --no-commit option
is given, whose purpose seem to be only to check if the index is
unmerged, with a simple loop over the active_cache[].
So add a comment to describe why the write_tree() is there, and
resurrect the last scripted version as a reference material in
contrib/example directory with others.
revert/cherry-pick: allow starting from dirty work tree.
There is no reason to forbid a dirty work tree when reverting or
cherry-picking a change, as long as the index is clean.
The scripted version used to allow it:
case "$no_commit" in
t)
# We do not intend to commit immediately. We just want to
# merge the differences in.
head=$(git-write-tree) ||
die "Your index file is unmerged."
;;
*)
head=$(git-rev-parse --verify HEAD) ||
die "You do not have a valid HEAD"
files=$(git-diff-index --cached --name-only $head) || exit
if [ "$files" ]; then
die "Dirty index: cannot $me (dirty: $files)"
fi
;;

gitweb: correct month in date display for atom feeds
strchrnul() was introduced in glibc in April 1999 and included in
glibc-2.1. Checking for that version means the majority of all git
users would get to use the optimized version in glibc. Of the
remaining few some might get to use a slightly slower version
than necessary but probably not slower than what we have today.
Unfortunately, __GLIBC_PREREQ() macro was not available in glibc 2.1.1
which was short lived but already supported strchrnul(). Odd minority
users of that library needs to live with our compatibility inline version.

As Jeff King remarked, format strings with duplicate placeholders can
be slow to expand, because each instance is calculated anew.
This patch makes use of the fact that format_commit_message() and its
helper functions only ever add stuff to the end of the strbuf. For
certain expensive placeholders, store the offset and length of their
expansion with the strbuf at the first occurrence. Later they
expansion result can simply be copied from there -- no malloc() or
strdup() required.
These certain placeholders are the abbreviated commit, tree and
parent hashes, as the search for a unique abbreviated hash is quite
costly. Here are the times for next (best of three runs):
$ time git log --pretty=format:%h >/dev/null
real 0m0.611s
user 0m0.404s
sys 0m0.204s
$ time git log --pretty=format:%h%h%h%h >/dev/null
real 0m1.206s
user 0m0.744s
sys 0m0.452s
And here those with this patch (and the previous two); the speedup
of the single placeholder case is just noise:
$ time git log --pretty=format:%h >/dev/null
real 0m0.608s
user 0m0.416s
sys 0m0.192s
$ time git log --pretty=format:%h%h%h%h >/dev/null

As Jeff King pointed out, some placeholder expansions are related to
each other: the steps to calculate one go most of the way towards
calculating the other, too.
This patch makes format_commit_message() parse the commit message
only once, remembering the position of each item. This speeds up
handling of format strings containing multiple placeholders from the
set %s, %a*, %c*, %e, %b.
Here are the timings for the git version in next. The first one is
to estimate the overhead of the caching, the second one is taken
from http://svn.tue.mpg.de/tentakel/trunk/tentakel/Makefile as an
example of a format string found in the wild. The times are the
fastest of three consecutive runs in each case:
$ time git log --pretty=format:%e >/dev/null
real 0m0.381s
user 0m0.340s
sys 0m0.024s
$ time git log --pretty=format:"* %cd %cn%n%n%s%n%b" >/dev/null
real 0m0.623s
user 0m0.556s
sys 0m0.052s
And here the times with this patch:
$ time git log --pretty=format:%e >/dev/null
real 0m0.385s

If we were listing objects too then the objects were buffered in an
array only reachable from a stack allocated structure. When this
function returns that array would be leaked as nobody would have
a reference to it anymore.
Historically this hasn't been a problem as the primary user of
traverse_commit_list() (the noble git-rev-list) would terminate
as soon as the function was finished, thus allowing the operating
system to cleanup memory. However we have been leaking this data
in git-pack-objects ever since that program learned how to run the
revision listing internally, rather than relying on reading object
names from git-rev-list.
To better facilitate reuse of traverse_commit_list during other
builtin tools (such as git-fetch) we shouldn't leak temporary memory
like this and instead we need to clean up properly after ourselves.

The interactive version of rebase does all the operations on a detached

state. The reflogs of "HEAD" still show all the actions in detail.

Some of the --pretty=format placeholders expansions are expensive to
calculate. This is made worse by the current code's use of
interpolate(), which requires _all_ placeholders are to be prepared
up front.
One way to speed this up is to check which placeholders are present
in the format string and to prepare only the expansions that are
needed. That still leaves the allocation overhead of interpolate().
Another way is to use a callback based approach together with the
strbuf library to keep allocations to a minimum and avoid string
copies. That's what this patch does. It introduces a new strbuf
function, strbuf_expand().
The function takes a format string, list of placeholder strings,
a user supplied function 'fn', and an opaque pointer 'context'
to tell 'fn' what thingy to operate on.
The function 'fn' is expected to accept a strbuf, a parsed
placeholder string and the 'context' pointer, and append the
interpolated value for the 'context' thingy, according to the
format specified by the placeholder.
Thanks to Pierre Habouzit for his suggestion to use strchrnul() and
the code surrounding its callsite. And thanks to Junio for most of
this commit message. :)
Here my measurements of most of Paul Mackerras' test cases that
highlighted the performance problem (best of three runs):
(master)
$ time git log --pretty=oneline >/dev/null
real 0m0.390s
user 0m0.340s
sys 0m0.040s
(master)
$ time git log --pretty=raw >/dev/null
real 0m0.434s
user 0m0.408s
sys 0m0.016s
(master)
$ time git log --pretty="format:%H {%P} %ct" >/dev/null
As suggested by Pierre Habouzit, add strchrnul(). It's a useful GNU
extension and can simplify string parser code. There are several
places in git that can be converted to strchrnul(); as a trivial
example, this patch introduces its usage to builtin-fetch--tool.c.

refresh_index_quietly(): express "optional" nature of index writing better
The point of the part of the code this patch touches is that if
we modified the active_cache, we try to write it out and make it
the index file for later users to use by calling
"commit_locked_index", but we do not really care about the
failure from this sequence because it is done purely as an
optimization.
The original code called three functions primarily for their
side effects but as condition of an if statement, which is
admittedly a bad style.
Incidentally, it squelches an "empty if body" warning from gcc.
When escaping a string to be used as a sed regex, it is important
to only escape active characters. Escaping other characters is
undefined according to POSIX, and in practice leads to issues with
extensions such as GNU sed's \+.
