As on FreeBSD, defining _XOPEN_SOURCE to 600 on DragonFly BSD 2.4-RELEASE
or later hides symbols from programs, which leads to implicit declaration
of functions, making the return value to be assumed an int. On architectures
where sizeof(int) < sizeof(void *), this can cause unexpected behaviors or
crashes.
This change won't affect other OSes unless they define __DragonFly__ macro,
or older versions of DragonFly BSD as the current git code doesn't rely on
the features only available with _XOPEN_SOURCE set to 600 on DragonFly.

The build system added support minifying gitweb.js through a
JavaScript minifier, but most minifiers come with support for
minifying CSS files as well, so we should use it if we can.
This patch will add the same facilities to gitweb.css that
gitweb.js has for minification. That does not mean that they
will use the same minifier though, as it is not safe to assume
that all JavaScript minifiers will also minify CSS files.
This patch also adds the GITWEB_PROGRAMS variable to the Makefile
to keep a list of potential gitweb dependencies separate from
OTHER_PROGRAMS when we need to know just the gitweb dependencies.
Though the bandwidth savings will not be as dramatic as with
the JavaScript minifier, every byte saved is important.

Now that Cygwin 1.7.x has enabled lots of new features, and Cygwin 1.5

as well update the defaults to cater to those new features.
NO_TRUSTABLE_FILEMODE is only necessary on FAT drives; the Cygwin

But send-email ran this near the beginning of the program, even if it is

For git-rebase.sh, --no-ff is a synonym for --force-rebase.
For git-rebase--interactive.sh, --no-ff cherry-picks all the commits in
the rebased branch, instead of fast-forwarding over any unchanged commits.
--no-ff offers an alternative way to deal with reverted merges. Instead of
"reverting the revert" you can use "rebase --no-ff" to recreate the branch
with entirely new commits (they're new because at the very least the
committer time is different). This obviates the need to revert the
reversion, as you can re-merge the new topic branch directly. Added an

If stdout has already been closed by the CGI and die() gets called,
the CGI will fail to write the "Status: 500 Internal Server Error" to
the pipe, which results in die() being called again (via safe_write).
This goes on in an infinite loop until the stack overflows and the
process is killed by SIGSEGV.
Instead set a flag on the first die() invocation and if we came back to
the handler, just die silently, as it only means we failed to report the
failure---we cannot report anything anyway in such a case. This way
failures to write the error messages to the stdout pipe do not result in
an infinite loop.
We also now report on the death to stderr before we report to stdout,
to increase the chances that the cause of the die() invocation will
appear in the server's error log.

When reverting a commit, the commit being merged is not the commit
to revert itself but its parent. Add “parent of” to the conflict
hunk label to make this more clear.
The conflict hunk labels are all pieces of a single string written in
the new get_message() function. Avoid some complication by using
mempcpy to advance a pointer as the result is written.
Also free the corresponding temporary buffer (it was leaked before).
This is not important because it is a small one-time allocation. It
would become a memory leak if unnoticed when libifying revert.
This patch uses calls to strlen() instead of integer constants in some
places. GCC will compute the length at compile time; I am not sure

merge_trees(): add ancestor label parameter for diff3-style output
Commands using the merge_trees() machinery will present conflict hunks

lacks the name of the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output,

o->ancestor parameter to merge_trees() for use as a label for the
ancestor in conflict hunks.
If o->ancestor is NULL, the output format is as before. All callers
pass NULL for now.
If o->ancestor is non-NULL and both branches renamed the base file
to the same name, that name is included in the conflict hunk labels.
Even if o->ancestor is NULL I think this would be a good change, but

The added information is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and

diff3 includes a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line, and it

interpreting the output, too. So change the marker for the start of the
text from the common ancestor to include the label “base”.
git rerere’s conflict identifiers are not affected: to parse conflict
hunks, rerere looks for whitespace after the ||||||| marker rather
than a newline, and to compute preimage ids, rerere has its own code
for creating conflict hunks. No other code in git tries to parse
conflict hunks.
