The mailing address of FSF changed quite a while ago. Also the expansion
of the acronym LGPL (which we don't use) is "Lesser GPL" not "Library GPL"
these days in recent copies of GPLv2. Update the copy we have with a
fresh download of <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.txt>.
This incidentally removes form-feeds in the text we retained for all these
years.
This can be specified to set the length of the conflict marker (usually 7)
to a non-default value per path. Only the callers of ll_merge() that are
aware of the per-path attributes are modified.
ll_merge() interface was designed to merge contents under git control
while taking per-path attributes into account. Update the three-way

Do not use date.c:tm_to_time_t() from compat/mingw.c
To implement gettimeofday(), a broken-down UTC time was requested from the
system using GetSystemTime(), then tm_to_time_t() was used to convert it
to a time_t because it does not look at the current timezone, which
mktime() would do.
Use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime() and a different conversion path to avoid this
back-reference from the compatibility layer to the generic code.

MSVC: Fix an "incompatible pointer types" compiler warning
In particular, the following warning is issued while compiling
compat/msvc.c:
...mingw.c(223) : warning C4133: 'function' : incompatible \
types - from '_stati64 *' to '_stat64 *'
which relates to a call of _fstati64() in the mingw_fstat()
function definition.
This is caused by various layers of macro magic and attempts to
avoid macro redefinition compiler warnings. For example, the call
to _fstati64() mentioned above is actually a call to _fstat64(),
and expects a pointer to a struct _stat64 rather than the struct
_stati64 which is passed to mingw_fstat().
The definition of struct _stati64 given in compat/msvc.h had the
same "shape" as the definition of struct _stat64, so the call to
_fstat64() does not actually cause any runtime errors, but the
structure types are indeed incompatible.
In order to avoid the compiler warning, we add declarations for the
mingw_lstat() and mingw_fstat() functions and supporting macros to
msvc.h, suppressing the corresponding declarations in mingw.h, so
that we can use the appropriate structure type (and function) names
from the msvc headers.

Windows: avoid the "dup dance" when spawning a child process
When stdin, stdout, or stderr must be redirected for a child process that
on Windows is spawned using one of the spawn() functions of Microsoft's
C runtime, then there is no choice other than to
1. make a backup copy of fd 0,1,2 with dup
2. dup2 the redirection source fd into 0,1,2
3. spawn
4. dup2 the backup back into 0,1,2
5. close the backup copy and the redirection source
We used this idiom as well -- but we are not using the spawn() functions
anymore!
Instead, we have our own implementation. We had hardcoded that stdin,
stdout, and stderr of the child process were inherited from the parent's
fds 0, 1, and 2. But we can actually specify any fd.
With this patch, the fds to inherit are passed from start_command()'s
WIN32 section to our spawn implementation. This way, we can avoid the
backup copies of the fds.
The backup copies were a bug waiting to surface: The OS handles underlying
the dup()ed fds were inherited by the child process (but were not
associated with a file descriptor in the child). Consequently, the file or
pipe represented by the OS handle remained open even after the backup copy
was closed in the parent process until the child exited.
Since our implementation of pipe() creates non-inheritable OS handles, we
still dup() file descriptors in start_command() because dup() happens to
create inheritable duplicates. (A nice side effect is that the fd cleanup
in start_command is the same for Windows and Unix and remains unchanged.)
Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Our implementation of pipe() must create non-inheritable handles for the
reason that when a child process is started, there is no opportunity to
close the unneeded pipe ends in the child (on POSIX this is done between
fork() and exec()).
Previously, we used the _pipe() function provided by Microsoft's C runtime
(which creates inheritable handles) and then turned the handles into
non-inheritable handles using the DuplicateHandle() API.
Simplify the procedure by using the CreatePipe() API, which can create
non-inheritable handles right from the beginning.

Windows: boost startup by avoiding a static dependency on shell32.dll
This DLL is only needed to invoke the browser in a "git help" call. By

A command invocation preceded by variable assignments, i.e.
VAR1=VAL1 VAR2=VAL2 ... command args
are implemented by dash and ksh in such a way not to export these
variables, and keep the values after the command finishes, when the
command is a shell function. POSIX.1 "2.9.5 Function Definition Command"
specifies this behaviour.
Many shells however treat this construct the same way as they are calling
external commands. They export the variables during the duration of
command, and resets their values after command returns.
The test relied on the behaviour of the latter kind.

grep --no-index: allow use of "git grep" outside a git repository
Just like some people wanted diff features that are not found in
other people's diff implementations outside of a git repository
and added --no-index mode to the command, this adds --no-index mode
to the "git grep" command.
Also, inside a git repository, --no-index mode allows you to grep
in untracked (but not ignored) files.
This moves the call to setup_git_directory() for running "grep" from
the "git" wrapper to the implementation of the "grep" subcommand. A
new variable "use_index" is always true at this stage in the series,
and when it is on, we require that we are in a directory that is under
git control. To make sure we die the same way, we make a second call
into setup_git_directory() when we detect this situation.
If you tried to export the official git repository, and then to import it
back then git-fast-import would die complaining that "Mark :1 not a commit".
Accordingly to a generated crash file, Mark 1 is not a commit but a blob,
which is pointed by junio-gpg-pub tag. Because git-tag allows to create such
tags, git-fast-import should import them.

commit: show interesting ident information in summary
There are a few cases of user identity information that we consider
interesting:
(1) When the author and committer identities do not match.
(2) When the committer identity was picked automatically from the
username, hostname and GECOS information.
In these cases, we already show the information in the commit
message template. However, users do not always see that template
because they might use "-m" or "-F". With this patch, we show these
interesting cases after the commit, along with the subject and
change summary. The new output looks like:
$ git config --global --unset user.name
$ git config --global --unset user.email
$ git commit -m foo
[master 7c2a927] foo
Committer: Jeff King <peff@c-71-185-130-222.hsd1.va.comcast.net>
Your name and email address were configured automatically based
on your username and hostname. Please check that they are accurate.
You can suppress this message by setting them explicitly:
git config --global user.name Your Name
git config --global user.email you@example.com
If the identity used for this commit is wrong, you can fix it with:
git commit --amend --author='Your Name <you@example.com>'

The only way to safely quote arbitrary text in a pretty-print user
format is to replace instances of "%" with "%x25". This is slightly
unreadable, and many users would expect "%%" to produce a single
"%", as that is what printf format specifiers do.
This patch converts "%%" to "%" for all users of strbuf_expand():
(1) git-daemon interpolated paths
(2) pretty-print user formats
(3) merge driver command lines
Case (1) was already doing the conversion itself outside of
strbuf_expand(). Case (2) is the intended beneficiary of this patch.
Case (3) users probably won't notice, but as this is user-facing
behavior, consistently providing the quoting mechanism makes sense.

Even when running without the -F (--fixed-strings) option, we checked the
pattern and used fixmatch() codepath when it does not contain any regex
magic. Finding fixed strings with strstr() surely must be faster than
running the regular expression crud.
Not so. It turns out that on some libc implementations, using the
regcomp()/regexec() pair is a lot faster than running strstr() and
strcasestr() the fixmatch() codepath uses. Drop the optimization and use
the fixmatch() codepath only when the user explicitly asked for it with
the -F option.

Be more user-friendly when refusing to do something because of conflict.
Various commands refuse to run in the presence of conflicts (commit,
merge, pull, cherry-pick/revert). They all used to provide rough, and
inconsistant error messages.
A new variable advice.resolveconflict is introduced, and allows more
verbose messages, pointing the user to the appropriate solution.
For commit, the error message used to look like this:
The "need merge" line is given by refresh_cache. We add the IN_PORCELAIN
option to make the output more consistant with the other porcelain
commands, and catch the error in return, to stop with a clean error
message. The next lines were displayed by a call to cache_tree_update(),
which is not reached anymore if we noticed the conflict.
The new output looks like:
U foo.txt
fatal: 'commit' is not possible because you have unmerged files.
Please, fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>' as
appropriate to mark resolution and make a commit, or use 'git commit -a'.
Pull is slightly modified to abort immediately if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD
exists instead of waiting for merge to complain.
The behavior of merge and the test-case are slightly modified to reflect
the usual flow: start with conflicts, fix them, and afterwards get rid of
MERGE_HEAD, with different error messages at each stage.

grep: optimize built-in grep by skipping lines that do not hit
The internal "grep" engine we use checks for hits line-by-line, instead of
letting the underlying regexec()/fixmatch() routines scan for the first
match from the rest of the buffer. This was a major source of overhead
compared to the external grep.
Introduce a "look-ahead" mechanism to find the next line that would
potentially match by using regexec()/fixmatch() in the remainder of the
text to skip unmatching lines, and use it when the query criteria is
simple enough (i.e. punt for an advanced grep boolean expression like
"lines that have both X and Y but not Z" for now) and we are not running
under "-v" (aka "--invert-match") option.
Note that "-L" (aka "--files-without-match") is not a reason to disable
this optimization. Under the option, we are interested if the file has
any hit at all, and that is what we determine reliably with or without the
optimization.
