(that takes a variable number of arguments) instead of
strbuf_vaddf (that takes a va_list).

noticed because none of the current callers passes a string
with a format specifier in it. And the compiler did not
notice because the format string is not available at

There are three ways to specify an external diff command:
GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF in the environment, diff.external in the
config, or a "diff" gitattribute. The current order of
precedence is:
1. gitattribute
2. GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF
3. diff.external
Usually our rule is that environment variables should take
precedence over on-disk config (i.e., option 2 should come
before option 1). However, this situation is trickier than
some, because option 1 is more specific to the individual
file than option 2 (which affects all files), so it might be
preferable. So the current behavior can be seen as
implementing "do the specific thing if we can, but fall back
to this general thing".
This is probably not what we would do if we were writing git
from scratch, but it has been this way for several years,
and is not worth changing. So let's at least document that
this is the way it's supposed to work with a test.
While we're there, let's also make sure that diff.external
(which was not previously tested at all) works by running it
through the same tests as GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF.

diff: correctly disable external_diff with --no-ext-diff
Upon seeing a type-change filepair, "diff --no-ext-diff" does not
show the usual "deletion followed by addition" split patch and does
not run the external diff driver either.
This is because the logic to disable external diff was placed at a
wrong level in the callchain. run_diff_cmd() decides to show the
split patch only when external diff driver is not configured or
specified via GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF environment, but this is done before
checking if --no-ext-diff was given. To make things worse,
run_diff_cmd() checks --no-ext-diff and disables the output for such
a filepair completely, as the callchain below it (e.g. builtin_diff)
does not want to handle typechange filepairs.
This reverts commit d28436736a078a429213003a9472e8caeb86c286, which

submodules: don't stumble over symbolic links when cloning recursively
Since 69c3051 (submodules: refactor computation of relative gitdir path)
cloning a submodule recursively fails for nested submodules when a
symbolic link is part of the path to the work tree of the superproject.
This happens when module_clone() tries to find the relative paths between
the work tree and the git dir. When a symbolic link in current $PWD points
to a directory that is at a different level, then determining the number
of "../" needed to traverse to the superproject's work tree leads to a
wrong result.
As there is no portable way to say "pwd -P", use cd_to_toplevel to remove
the link from $PWD, which fixes this problem.
A test for this issue has been added to t7406.

We failed to use ce_namelen() equivalent and instead only compared
up to the CE_NAMEMASK bytes by mistake. Adding an overlong path
that shares the same common prefix as an existing entry in the index
did not add a new entry, but instead replaced the existing one, as
the result.
When we do not have any pathspec, we typically disallow an
explicit "--only", because it makes no sense (your commit
would, by definition, be empty). But since 6a74642
(git-commit --amend: two fixes., 2006-04-20), we have
allowed "--amend --only" with the intent that it would amend
the commit, ignoring any contents staged in the index.
However, while that commit allowed the combination, we never
actually implemented the logic to make it work. The current
code notices that we have no pathspec and assumes we want to
do an as-is commit (i.e., the "--only" is ignored).
Instead, we must make sure to follow the partial-commit
code-path. We also need to tweak the list_paths function to
handle a NULL pathspec.

push: don't guess at qualifying remote refs on deletion
When we try to push a ref and the right-hand side of the
refspec does not find a match, we try to create it. If it is
not fully qualified, we try to guess where it would go in
the refs hierarchy based on the left-hand source side. If
the source side is not a ref, then we give up and give a
long explanatory message.
For deletions, however, this doesn't make any sense. We
would never want to create on the remote side, and if an
unqualified ref can't be matched, it is simply an error. The
current code handles this already because the left-hand side
is empty, and therefore does not give us a hint as to where
the right-hand side should go, and we properly error out.
Unfortunately, the error message is the long "we tried to
qualify this, but the source side didn't let us guess"
message, which is quite confusing.
Instead, we can just be more succinct and say "we can't
delete this because we couldn't find it". So before:
$ git push origin :bogus
error: unable to push to unqualified destination: bogus
The destination refspec neither matches an existing ref on the remote nor
begins with refs/, and we are unable to guess a prefix based on the source ref.
error: failed to push some refs to '$URL'
and now:
$ git push origin :bogus
error: unable to delete 'bogus': remote ref does not exist
error: failed to push some refs to '$URL'
It is tempting to also catch a fully-qualified ref like
"refs/heads/bogus" and generate the same error message.
However, that currently does not error out at all, and
instead gets sent to the remote side, which typically
generates a warning:
$ git push origin:refs/heads/bogus
remote: warning: Deleting a non-existent ref.
To $URL
- [deleted] bogus
While it would be nice to catch this error early, a
client-side error would mean aborting the push entirely and
changing push's exit code. For example, right now you can
do:
$ git push origin refs/heads/foo refs/heads/bar
and end up in a state where "foo" and "bar" are deleted,
whether both of them currently exist or not (and see an
error only if we actually failed to contact the server).
Generating an error would cause a regression for this use
case.

blame: compute abbreviation width that ensures uniqueness
Julia Lawall noticed that in linux-next repository the commit object 60d5c9f5 (shown with the default abbreviation width baked into "git
blame") in output from
diff-index.c: "git diff" has no need to read blob from the standard input
Only "diff --no-index -" does. Bolting the logic into the low-level
function diff_populate_filespec() was a layering violation from day
one. Move populate_from_stdin() function out of the generic diff.c
to its only user, diff-index.c.
Also make sure "-" from the command line stays a special token "read
from the standard input", even if we later decide to sanitize the
result from prefix_filename() function in a few obvious ways,
e.g. removing unnecessary "./" prefix, duplicated slashes "//" in
the middle, etc.
diff-index.c: unify handling of command line paths
Regardless of where in the directory hierarchy you are, "-" on the
command line means the standard input. The old code knew too much
about how the low level machinery uses paths to read from the
working tree and did not bother to have the same check for "-" when
the command is run from the top-level.
Unify the codepaths for subdirectory case and toplevel case into one
and make it clearer.
"git diff --no-index" takes exactly two paths, not pathspecs, and
has its own way queue_diff() to populate the diff_queue. Do not
call diff_tree_setup_paths(), pretending as it takes pathspecs.
A path containing a space must be quoted when used as an
argument to either the copy or rename commands (because
unlike other commands, the path is not the final thing on
the line for those commands).
Commit 6280dfdc3b (fast-export: quote paths in output,
2011-08-05) previously attempted to fix fast-export's
quoting by passing all paths through quote_c_style().
However, that function does not consider the space to be a
character which requires quoting, so let's special-case the
space inside print_path(). This will cause space-containing
paths to also be quoted in other commands where such quoting
is not strictly necessary, but it does not hurt to do so.
The test from 6280dfdc3b did not detect this because, while
it does introduce renames in the export stream, it does not
actually turn on rename detection, so they were presented as
pairs of deletions/adds. Using "-M" reveals the bug.

t/test-lib.sh: export PERL_PATH for use in scripts
Most notably, t4031 creates a small shell script that invokes perl

for our use, read from GIT-BUILD-OPTS. The test would fail when it
is directly run in t/ directory from the shell or "make" is run in t/
directory.
This problem was hidden from "make test" run in the top-level
directory, because its Makefile exports PERL_PATH.
When running 'git diff --quiet <file1> <file2>', if file1 or file2
is outside the repository, it will exit(0) even if the files differ.
It should exit(1) when they differ.
This happens because 'diff_no_index' looks at the 'found_changes'
member from 'diff_options' to determine if changes were made. This
is the wrong thing to do, since it is only set if xdiff is actually
run and it finds a change (the diff machinery will optimize out the
xdiff call when it is not necessary) and in that case HAS_CHANGED
flag needs to be taken into account.
Use diff_result_code() that knows all these details for the correct

The logic of git-show has remained largely unchanged since around 5d7eeee (git-show: grok blobs, trees and tags, too, 2006-12-14): start
a revision walker with no_walk=1, look at its pending objects and
handle them one-by-one. For commits, this means stuffing them into a
new queue all alone, and running the walker.
Then Linus's f222abd (Make 'git show' more useful, 2009-07-13) came
along and set no_walk=0 whenever the user specifies a range. Which
appears to work fine, until you actually prod it hard enough, as the
preceding commit shows: UNINTERESTING commits will be marked as such,
but not walked further to propagate the marks.
Demonstrate this with the main tests of this patch: 'showing a range
walks (Y shape)'. The Y shape of history ensures that propagating the
UNINTERESTING marks is necessary to correctly exclude the main1
commit. The only example I could find actually requires that the
negative revisions are listed later, and in this scenario a dotted
range actually works. However, it is easy to find examples in git.git
where a dotted range is wrong, e.g.
While there, also test a few other things that are not covered so far:
the -N way of triggering a range (added in 5853cae, DWIM 'git show -5'
to 'git show --do-walk -5', 2010-06-01), and the interactions of tags,

There is no point in running a pager when --quiet is given,
since we are producing no output. The regular diff code path
handles this already, because --quiet implies --exit-code,
and we check for --exit-code when deciding not to run the
pager.
However, the "quiet implies exit-code" logic is done in
diff_setup_done, and the no-index code path sets up its
pager before running diff_setup_done, and misses this case.
We can fix this by reordering our initialization.
Currently we do:
1. read command line arguments into diff_options
2. Set pager if EXIT_CODE not requested
3. always set EXIT_CODE, since we are emulating
traditional diff
4. call diff_setup_done
We can fix the problem by moving pager initialization (step
2) after step 4. But step 3 must come after step 2 (since we
want to know whether the _user_ requested --exit-code, not
whether we turned it on unconditionally). So we must move
both.

git-diff does not rely on the git wrapper to setup its
pager; instead, it sets it up on its own after seeing
whether --quiet or --exit-code has been specified. After
diff_no_index was split off from cmd_diff, commit b3fde6c
(git diff --no-index: default to page like other diff
frontends, 2008-05-26) duplicated the one-liner from
cmd_diff to turn on the pager.
Later, commit 8f0359f (Allow pager of diff command be
enabled/disabled, 2008-07-21) taught the the version in
cmd_diff to respect the pager.diff config, but the version
in diff_no_index was left behind. This meant that
git -c pager.diff=0 diff a b
would not use a pager, but
git -c pager.diff=0 diff --no-index a b
would. Let's fix it by factoring out a common function.
While we're there, let's update the antiquated comment,
which claims that the pager interferes with propagating the

perl/Makefile: install Git::SVN::* when NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=yes, too
v1.7.11-rc1~12^2~2 (2012-05-27) and friends split some git-svn code
into separate modules but did not update the fallback rules to install
them when NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER is set. Add the appropriate rules so
users without MakeMaker can use git-svn again.
perl/Makefile.PL: warn about duplicate module list in perl/Makefile
Adding or removing a module requires modifying both files to support
builds with and without MakeMaker. Add a comment to remind patch
authors and reviewers at the crucial moment.
Longer term, it would be nicer to maintain a single list, perhaps in a
separate file used by both build systems.

git-cherry-pick.txt: clarify the use of revision range notation
When given a set of commits, cherry-pick will apply the changes for
all of them. Specifying a simple range will also work as expected.
This can lead the user to think that
git cherry-pick A B..C
may apply A and then B..C, but that is not what happens.
Instead the revs are given to a single invocation of rev-list, which
will consider A and C as positive revs and B as a negative one. The
commit A will not be used if it is an ancestor of B.
Add a note about this and add an example with this particular
syntax, which has shown up on the list a few times.

Documentation: --no-walk is no-op if range is specified
The existing description can be misleading and cause the reader to
think that --no-walk will do something if they specify a range in the
command line instead of a set of revs.

revision: ignore side parents while running simplify-merges
The simplify_merges() function needs to look at all history chain to
find the closest ancestor that is relevant after the simplification,
but after --first-parent traversal, side parents haven't been marked
for relevance (they are irrelevant by definition due to the nature
of first-parent-only traversal) nor culled from the parents list of
resulting commits.
We cannot simply remove these side parents from the parents list, as
the output phase still wants to see the parents. Instead, teach
simplify_one() and its callees to ignore the later parents.
archive: ustar header checksum is computed unsigned
POSIX.1 (pax) is pretty clear on this:
The chksum field shall be the ISO/IEC 646:1991 standard IRV
representation of the octal value of the simple sum of all octets
in the header logical record. Each octet in the header shall be
treated as an unsigned value. These values shall be added to an
unsigned integer, initialized to zero, the precision of which is
not less than 17 bits. When calculating the checksum, the chksum
field is treated as if it were all <space> characters.
completion: put main git and gitk completion functions back into git namespace
Commit 7f02f3d7 (completion: rename internal helpers _git and _gitk,
2012-05-19) renamed said functions to _main_git() and _main_gitk(),
respectively. By convention the name of our git-completion-specific
functions start with '_git' or '__git' prefix, so rename those
functions once again to put them back into our "namespace". Use the
two underscore prefix, because _git_main() could be mistaken for the
completion function of the (not yet existing) 'git main' command.

gitweb: Skip 'modification times' tests when no date parser available
The If-Modified-Since support in Gitweb is conditional on the
availability of a date parser from either the HTTP::Date or
Time::ParseDate modules. If a suitable parser is not available,
then the corresponding 'modification times' tests should be skipped.
Introduce the DATE_PARSER test prerequisite and use it to skip
all of the dependent tests.

GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS defines PERL_PATH to be used in the test suite. Only a
few tests already actually use this variable when perl is needed. The
other test just call 'perl' and it might happen that the wrong perl
interpreter is used.
This becomes problematic on Windows, when the perl interpreter that is
compiled and installed on the Windows system is used, because this perl
interpreter might introduce some unexpected LF->CRLF conversions.
This patch makes sure that $PERL_PATH is used everywhere in the test suite
and that the correct perl interpreter is used.
