Makefile: let header dependency checker override COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES
This way, if you have “COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES = YesPlease” in your
config.mak, you can still “make CHECK_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=Yes” to check
the makefile after a successful build.
This change does not affect the result of the command
“make CHECK_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=Yes COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=Yes”.
That will still die with an error message:
cannot compute header dependencies outside a normal build
The message is appropriate because still true.

All code that is run per-connection (as opposed to those parts of gitweb

- evaluate_uri
- evaluate_gitweb_config
- evaluate_git_version (here only because $GIT can be set in config)
- check_loadavg (as soon as possible; $git_version must be defined)
- evaluate_query_params (counterpart to evaluate_path_info)
- evaluate_and_validate_params
- evaluate_git_dir (requires $project)
- configure_gitweb_features (@snapshot_fmts, $git_avatar)
- dispatch (includes setting default $action)

When cherry-picking, usually the new and old commit encodings are both
UTF-8. Most old iconv implementations do not support this trivial
conversion, so on old platforms, out->message remains NULL, and later
attempts to read it segfault.
Fix this by noticing the input and output encodings match and skipping
the iconv step, like the other reencode_string() call sites already do.
Also stop segfaulting on other iconv failures: if iconv fails for some
other reason, the best we can do is to pass the old message through.
This fixes a regression introduced in v1.7.1-rc0~15^2~2 (revert:

Make diffcore_std only can run once before a diff_flush
When file renames/copies detection is turned on, the
second diffcore_std will degrade a 'C' pair to a 'R' pair.
And this may happen when we run 'git log --follow' with
hard copies finding. That is, the try_to_follow_renames()
will run diffcore_std to find the copies, and then
'git log' will issue another diffcore_std, which will reduce
'src->rename_used' and recognize this copy as a rename.
This is not what we want.

test-lib: some shells do not let $? propagate into an eval
In 3bf7886 (test-lib: Let tests specify commands to be run at end of
test, 2010-05-02), the git test harness learned to run cleanup
commands unconditionally at the end of a test. During each test,
the intended cleanup actions are collected in the test_cleanup variable
and evaluated. That variable looks something like this:
All cleanup actions are run unconditionally but if one of them fails
it is properly reported through $eval_ret.
On FreeBSD, unfortunately, $? is set at the beginning of an ‘eval’
to 0 instead of the exit status of the previous command. This results
in tests using test_expect_code appearing to fail and all others
appearing to pass, unless their cleanup fails. Avoid the problem by
setting eval_ret before the ‘eval’ begins.
Thanks to Jeff King for the explanation.

Though I have not seen this in the wild, it has been said that there
are likely to be git repositories converted from other version control
systems with an invalid ident line like this one:
Because there is no space between the (empty) user name and the email

space-left-bracket sequence on the ident line, it finds it in the
committer line, ending up utterly confused.
Better for commit --amend to treat this like a valid ident line with
empty username and complain.

test-lib: Let tests specify commands to be run at end of test
Certain actions can imply that if the test fails early, recovery from
within other tests is too much to expect:
- creating unwritable directories, like the EACCESS test in t0001-init
- setting unusual configuration, like user.signingkey in t7004-tag
- crashing and leaving the index lock held, like t3600-rm once did
Some test scripts work around this by running cleanup actions outside
the supervision of the test harness, with the unfortunate consequence
that those commands are not appropriately echoed and their output not
suppressed. Others explicitly save exit status, clean up, and then
reset the exit status within the tests, which has excellent behavior
but makes the tests hard to read. Still others ignore the problem.
Allow tests a fourth option: by calling this function, tests can
stack up commands they would like to be run to clean up.
Commands passed to test_when_finished during a test are
unconditionally run in the test environment immediately before the
test is completed, in last-in-first-out order. If some cleanup
command fails, then the other cleanup commands are still run before
the failure is reported and the test script allowed to continue.

Dear Junio,

I'm not sure about the copyrightability of Bryan Donlan's
contributions (git log -p --author='Bryan Donlan' t/test-lib.sh).
Carl told me that in your ack collection process you missed only three
acks. So I wonder whether you already did some analysis of which
contributions are copyrightable. If so, are the missing acks in the
list bellow?

previously the only ways to alias a --pretty format within git were
either to set the format as your default format (via the format.pretty
configuration variable), or by using a regular git alias. This left the
definition of more complicated formats to the realm of "builtin or
nothing", with user-defined formats usually being reserved for quick
one-offs.
Here we allow user-defined formats to enjoy more or less the same
benefits of builtins. By defining pretty.myalias, "myalias" can be
used in place of whatever would normally come after --pretty=. This
can be a format:, tformat:, raw (ie, defaulting to tformat), or the name
of another builtin or user-defined pretty format.

initialization of the formats array into a new function,
setup_commit_formats(), which we can easily extend later. Then, rather
than looping through only the list of known formats, we make a more
generic find_commit_format function, which will return the commit format
whose name is the shortest which is prefixed with the passed-in sought
format, the same rules which were more-or-less hard-coded in before.

Ever since the xdiff library had been introduced to git, all its callers
have used the flag XDF_NEED_MINIMAL. It makes sure that the smallest
possible diff is produced, but that takes quite some time if there are
lots of differences that can be expressed in multiple ways.
This flag makes a difference for only 0.1% of the non-merge commits in
the git repo of Linux, both in terms of diff size and execution time.
The patches there are mostly nice and small.
SungHyun Nam however reported a case in a different repo where a diff
took more than 20 times longer to generate with XDF_NEED_MINIMAL than
without. Rebasing became really slow.
This patch removes this flag from all callers. The default of xdiff is
saner because it has minimal to no impact in the normal case of small
diffs and doesn't incur that much of a speed penalty for large ones.
A follow-up patch may introduce a command line option to set the flag if
the user needs it, similar to GNU diff's -d/--minimal.

Change the default message for errors (for fatalsToBrowser) to use
die_error() subroutine. This way errors (and explicitely calling 'die
MESSAGE') would generate 'Internal Server Error' error message.
Note that call to set_message is intentionally not put in BEGIN block;
we set error handler to use die_error() only after we are sure that we
can use it, after all needed variables are set.
Due to the fact that error handler set via set_message() subroutine
from CGI::Carp (in the fatalsToBrowser case) is called after HTTP
headers were already printed (with exception of MOD_PERL), gitweb
cannot return 'Status: 500 Internal Server Error'.
Thanks to the fact that die_error() no longer uses 'exit', errors
would be logged by CGI::Carp, independent on whether default error
handler is used, or handle_errors_html which uses die_error is used.

"rev-list A..H" computes the set of commits that are ancestors of H, but
excludes the ones that are ancestors of A. This is useful to see what
happened to the history leading to H since A, in the sense that "what does
H have that did not exist in A" (e.g. when you have a choice to update to
H from A).
The result in the above example would be the commits marked with caps
letters (except for A itself, of course), and the ones marked with 'o'.
When you want to find out what commits in H are contaminated with the bug
introduced by A and need fixing, however, you might want to view only the
subset of "A..B" that are actually descendants of A, i.e. excluding the
ones marked with 'o'. Introduce a new option --ancestry-path to compute
this set with "rev-list --ancestry-path A..B".
Note that in practice, you would build a fix immediately on top of A and
"git branch --contains A" will give the names of branches that you would
need to merge the fix into (i.e. topic, dev and master), so this may not
be worth paying the extra cost of postprocessing.
stash tests: stash can lose data in a file removed from the index
If a file is removed from the index and then modified in the working
tree then stash will discard the working tree file with no way to
recover the changes.
This can might be done in one of a number of ways.
git rm file
vi file # edit a new version
git stash
or with git mv
git mv file newfile
vi file # make a new file with the old name
git stash

receive-pack: detect aliased updates which can occur with symrefs
When pushing to a remote repo the sending side filters out aliased
updates (e.g., foo:baz bar:baz). However, it is not possible for the
sender to know if two refs are aliased on the receiving side via
symrefs. Here is one such scenario:
Counting objects: 5, done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 244 bytes, done.
Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
Unpacking objects: 100% (3/3), done.
error: Ref refs/remotes/origin/master is at ef3... but expected 262...
remote: error: failed to lock refs/remotes/origin/master
To ../backup.git 262cd57..ef307ff master -> master 262cd57..ef307ff origin/HEAD -> origin/HEAD
! [remote rejected] origin/master -> origin/master (failed to lock)
error: failed to push some refs to '../backup.git'
The reason is that refs/remotes/origin/HEAD is a symref to
refs/remotes/origin/master, but it is not possible for the sending side
to unambiguously know this.
This commit fixes the issue by having receive-pack ignore any update to
a symref whose target is being identically updated. If a symref and its
target are being updated inconsistently, then the update for both fails
with an error message ("refusing inconsistent update...") to help
diagnose the situation.

receive-pack: switch global variable 'commands' to a parameter
Receive-pack is inconsistent in its usage of the 'commands'
variable; though it is setup as a global and accessed that way by
execute_commands(), report(), and run_receive_hook(), it is also
passed as a parameter to delete_only() and run_update_post_hook().
For consistency, make it local to cmd_receive_pack and pass it as a
parameter. As long as we're cleaning up, also make our use of the
names 'commands' and 'cmd' consistent.
