This is in the same spirit as the previous one. Earlier 'diff'
meant 'do the built-in binary heuristics and disable patch text
generation based on it' while '!diff' meant 'do not guess, do
not generate patch text'. There was no way to say 'do generate
patch text even when the heuristics says it has NUL in it'.
Earlier we said 'crlf lets the path go through core.autocrlf
process while !crlf disables it altogether'. This fixes the
semantics to:
- Lack of 'crlf' attribute makes core.autocrlf to apply
(i.e. we guess based on the contents and if platform
expresses its desire to have CRLF line endings via
core.autocrlf, we do so).
- Setting 'crlf' attribute to true forces CRLF line endings in
working tree files, even if blob does not look like text
(e.g. contains NUL or other bytes we consider binary).
- Setting 'crlf' attribute to false disables conversion.
This defines the semantics of 'crlf' attribute as an example.
When a path has this attribute unset (i.e. '!crlf'), autocrlf
line-end conversion is not applied.
Eventually we would want to let users to build a pipeline of
processing to munge blob data to filesystem format (and in the
other direction) based on combination of attributes, and at that
point the mechanism in convert_to_{git,working_tree}() that
looks at 'crlf' attribute needs to be enhanced. Perhaps the
existing 'crlf' would become the first step in the input chain,
and the last step in the output chain.
Add basic infrastructure to assign attributes to paths
This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to
paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does
based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files.
An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any
whitespace. They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes
file, and .gitattributes file in each directory.
Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule.
Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an
earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes
file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from
parent directories. Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are
used as the lowest precedence default rules.
A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins
with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of
tokens. The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern.
The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally
be prefixed with '!'. Such a line means "if a path matches this
glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name
is prefixed with '!'). For glob matching, the same "if the
pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is
matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path
is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the
exclusion mechanism is used.
This does not define what an attribute means. Tying an
attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths
that have it will be specified separately.

an ugly hack.

This merge strategy largely piggy-backs on git-merge-recursive.
When merging trees A and B, if B corresponds to a subtree of A,
B is first adjusted to match the tree structure of A, instead of
reading the trees at the same level. This adjustment is also
done to the common ancestor tree.
If you are pulling updates from git-gui repository into git.git
repository, the root level of the former corresponds to git-gui/
subdirectory of the latter. The tree object of git-gui's toplevel
is wrapped in a fake tree object, whose sole entry has name 'git-gui'
and records object name of the true tree, before being used by
the 3-way merge code.
If you are merging the other way, only the git-gui/ subtree of
git.git is extracted and merged into git-gui's toplevel.
The detection of corresponding subtree is done by comparing the
pathnames and types in the toplevel of the tree.
git-push to multiple locations does not stop at the first failure
When pushing into multiple repositories with git push, via
multiple URL in .git/remotes/$shorthand or multiple url

failure at the end.
This came up on #git when somebody was getting 'unable to create
./objects/tmp_oXXXX' but sweared he had write permission to that
directory. It turned out that the repository URL was changed
and he was accessing a repository he does not have a write
permission anymore.
I am not sure how much this would have helped somebody who
believed he was accessing location when the permission of that
location was changed while he was looking the other way, though.
But giving more information on the error path would be better,
and the next change would be helped with this as well.

This function was not called "add_file_to_cache()" only because
an ancient program, update-cache, used that name as an internal
function name that does something slightly different. Now that
is gone, we can take over the better name.
The plan is to name all functions that operate on the default
index xxx_cache(). Later patches create a variant of them that
take an explicit parameter xxx_index(), and then turn
xxx_cache() functions into macros that use "the_index".
Rename internal function "add_file_to_cache" in builtin-update-index.c
I'd like to consistently name all index-layer functions that
operate on the default index xxx_cache(), and this application
specific function interferes with the plan.
Propagate cache error internal to refresh_cache() via parameter.
The function refresh_cache() is the only user of cache_errno
that switches its behaviour based on what internal function
refresh_cache_entry() finds; pass the error status back in a
parameter passed down to it, to get rid of the global variable
cache_errno.
Fix bogus error message from merge-recursive error path
This error message should not usually trigger, but the function
make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo() can return early
without calling into refresh_cache_entry() that sets cache_errno.
Also the error message had a wrong function name reported, and
it did not say anything about which path failed either.
Previously, a binary file in the diffstat would show as:
some-binary-file.bin | Bin
The space after the "Bin" was never used. This patch changes binary
lines in the diffstat to be:
some-binary-file.bin | Bin 12345 -> 123456 bytes
The very nice "->" notation was suggested by Johannes Schindelin, and
shows the before and after sizes more clearly than "+" and "-" would.
If a size is 0 it's not shown (although it would probably be better to
treat no-file differently from zero-byte-file).
The user can see what changed in the binary file, and how big the new
file is. This is in keeping with the information in the rest of the
diffstat.
The diffstat_t members "added" and "deleted" were unused when the file
was binary, so this patch loads them with the file sizes in
builtin_diffstat(). These figures are then read in show_stats() when
the file is marked binary.

Fix lost-found to show commits only referenced by reflogs
Prior to 1.5.0 the git-lost-found utility was useful to locate
commits that were not referenced by any ref. These were often
amends, or resets, or tips of branches that had been deleted.
Being able to locate a 'lost' commit and recover it by creating a
new branch was a useful feature in those days.
Unfortunately 1.5.0 added the reflogs to the reachability analysis
performed by git-fsck, which means that most commits users would
consider to be lost are still reachable through a reflog. So most
(or all!) commits are reachable, and nothing gets output from
git-lost-found.
Now git-fsck can be told to ignore reflogs during its reachability
analysis, making git-lost-found useful again to locate commits
that are no longer referenced by a ref itself, but may still be
referenced by a reflog.
