Change feeds entries (feeds items) from pointing (linking) to 'commit'

First, feed entries have whatchanged-like list of files which were
modified in a commit, so 'commitdiff' view more naturally reflects
feed entry (is more naturally alternate / extended version of a feed
item). Second, this way the patches are shown directly and code review

git-svn: improve repository URL matching when following parents

This way we can avoid the spawning of a new SVN::Ra session by
reusing the existing one.

The most problematic issue is that some svn servers disallow
too many connections from a single IP, so this will allow
git-svn to fetch from those repositories with a higher success
rate by using fewer connections.

This sometimes showed up as a new (and redundant)
[svn-remote "$parent_refname"] entry in $GIT_DIR/svn/.metadata.

I was able to solve this problem with this patch, which adds a XSL file
used specifically for DOCBOOK_XSL_172=YesPlease and where dots and
backslashes are escaped properly so they won't be substituted to the
wrong thing further down the "DocBook XSL pipeline". Doing the escaping
in the existing callout.xsl breaks v1.70.1. Hopefully v1.73 will end

Sane use of test_expect_failureJunio C Hamano Fri, 1 Feb 2008 09:50:53 +0000 (01:50 -0800)

Sane use of test_expect_failure

Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite
of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests
run a series of commands that leads to the single command that
needs to be tested, like this:

test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
what is to be tested
'

And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the
point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to
succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are
trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to
check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which
is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands.

This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to
use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is
tested, like this:

test_expect_success 'test title' '
setup1 &&
setup2 &&
setup3 &&
! this command should fail
'

test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that
that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it
currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a
file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can
write a test like this:

test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' '
rm -f bar &&
git foo &&
test -f bar
'

This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead
of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the
outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

reflog-expire: Avoid creating new files in a directory inside readdir(3) loop

"git reflog expire --all" opened a directory in $GIT_DIR/logs/,
read reflog files in there readdir(3), and rewrote the file by
creating a new file and renaming it back inside the loop. This
code structure can cause the newly created file to be returned
by subsequent call to readdir(3), and fall into an infinite loop
in the worst case.

This separates the processing to two phase. Running
for_each_reflog() to find out and collect all refs, and then
iterate over them, calling expire_reflog(). This way, the
program would behave exactly the same way as if all the refs

Git histories may have multiple roots, which can cause

If options are aggregated, and that the whole token is an exact
prefix of a long option that is longer than 2 letters, reject
it. This is to prevent a common typo:

$ git commit -amend

to get interpreted as "commit all with message 'end'".

The typo check isn't performed if there is no aggregation,
because the stuck form is the recommended one. If we have `-o`
being a valid short option that takes an argument, and --option
a long one, then we _MUST_ accept -option as "'o' option with
argument 'ption'", which is our official recommended form.

POSIX.1-2001 has declaration of select(2) in <sys/select.h>, but
in the previous version of SUS, it was declared in <sys/time.h>
(which is already included in git-compat-util.h).

This introduces NO_SYS_SELECT_H macro in the Makefile to be set
on older systems, to skip inclusion of <sys/select.h> that does
not exist on them.

We could check _POSIX_VERSION with 200112L and do this

In certain rare cases, the creation of the commit object
and update of HEAD can succeed, but then installing the
updated index will fail. This is most likely caused by a
full disk or exceeded disk quota. When this happens the
new index file will be removed, and the repository will
be left with the original now-out-of-sync index. The
user can recover with a "git reset HEAD" once the disk
space issue is resolved.

We should detect this failure and offer the user some

The strings we were showing from po2msg didn't exactly match those
of msgfmt's --statistics output so we didn't show quite the same

to what msgfmt shows (at least for an en_US locale) so the make
output matches.

I noticed that the fuzzy translation count is off by one for the
current po/zh_cn.po file. Not sure why and I'm not going to try
and debug it at this time as the po2msg is strictly a fallback,
users building from source really should prefer msgfmt.

If msgfmt fails with exit code 127 that typically means the program

In such a case we can try to fallback to the Tcl based po2msg program
that we distributed with git-gui, as it does a "good enough" job.

We still don't default to po2msg.sh however as it does not perform
a lot of the sanity checks that msgfmt does, and quite a few of
those are too useful to give up.

Teach fast-import to honor pack.compression and pack.depth

We now use the configured pack.compression and pack.depth values
within fast-import, as like builtin-pack-objects fast-import is
generating a packfile for consumption by the Git tools.

We use the same behavior as builtin-pack-objects does for these
options, allowing core.compression to supply the default value
for pack.compression.

The default setting for pack.depth within fast-import is still 10
as users will generally repack fast-import generated packfiles by
`repack -f`. A large delta depth within the fast-import packfile
can significantly slow down such a later repack.

git-submodule: fix subcommand parser

The subcommand parser of "git submodule" made its subcommand
names reserved words. As a consequence, a command like this:

$ git submodule add init update

which is meant to add a submodule called 'init' at path 'update'
was misinterpreted as a request to invoke more than one mutually
incompatible subcommands and incorrectly rejected.

This patch fixes the issue by stopping the subcommand parsing at
the first subcommand word, to allow the sample command line
above to work as expected.

It also introduces the usual -- option disambiguator, so that a
submodule at path '-foo' can be updated with

$ git submodule update -- -foo

without triggering an "unrecognized option -foo" error.

git-gui: Consolidate hook execution code into a single function

The code we use to test if a hook is executable or not differs on
Cygwin from the normal POSIX case. Rather then repeating that for
all three hooks we call in our commit code path we can place the
common logic into a global procedure and invoke it when necessary.

This also lets us get rid of the ugly "|& cat" we were using before
as we can now rely on the Tcl 8.4 feature of "2>@1" or fallback to
the "|& cat" when necessary.

The post-commit hook is now run through the same API, but its outcome
does not influence the commit status. As a result we now show any of
the errors from the post-commit hook in a dialog window, instead of on
the user's tty that was used to launch git-gui. This resolves a long
standing bug related to not getting errors out of the post-commit hook
when launched under git-gui.

git-gui: Honor the standard commit-msg hook

Under core Git the git-commit tool will invoke the commit-msg hook
if it exists and is executable to the user running git-commit. As
a hook it has some limited value as it cannot alter the commit, but
it can modify the message the user is attempting to commit. It is
also able to examine the message to ensure it conforms to some local
standards/conventions.

Since the hook takes the name of a temporary file holding the message
as its only parameter we need to move the code that creates the temp
file up earlier in our commit code path, and then pass through that
file name to the latest stage (where we call git-commit-tree). We let
the hook alter the file as it sees fit and we don't bother to look at
its content again until the commit succeeded and we need the subject
for the reflog update.

http-push: clarify the reason of error from the initial PROPFIND request

The first thing http-push does is a PROPFIND to see if the other
end supports locking. The failure message we give is always
reported as "no DAV locking support at the remote repository",
regardless of the reason why we ended up not finding the locking
support on the other end.

This moves the code to report "no DAV locking support" down the
codepath so that the message is issued only when we successfully
get a response to PROPFIND and the other end say it does not
support locking. Other failures, such as connectivity glitches
and credential mismatches, have their own error message issued
and we will not issue "no DAV locking" error (we do not even
know if the remote end supports it).

http-push: fail when info/refs exists and is already locked

Failing instead of silently not updating remote refs makes the things
clearer for the user when trying to push on a repository while another
person do (or while a dandling locks are waiting for a 10 minutes
timeout).

When silently not updating remote refs, the user does not even know
that git has pushed the objects but leaved the refs as they were
before (e.g. a new bunch of commits on branch "master" is uploaded,
however the branch by itsel still points on the previous head commit).

http-push: fix webdav lock leak.Grégoire Barbier Sat, 19 Jan 2008 15:22:47 +0000 (16:22 +0100)

http-push: fix webdav lock leak.

Releasing webdav lock even if push fails because of bad (or no)
reference on command line.

To reproduce the issue that this patch fixes, prepare a test repository
availlable over http+webdav, say at http://myhost/myrepo.git/

Then:

$ git clone http://myhost/myrepo.git/
$ cd myrepo
$ git push http
Fetching remote heads...
refs/
refs/heads/
refs/tags/
No refs in common and none specified; doing nothing.
$ git push http
Fetching remote heads...
refs/
refs/heads/
refs/tags/
No refs in common and none specified; doing nothing.
$

Finally, you look at the web server logs, and will find one LOCK query
and no UNLOCK query, of course the second one will be in 423 return
code instead of 200:

1.2.3.4 - gb [19/Jan/2008:14:24:56 +0100] "LOCK /myrepo.git/info/refs HTTP/1.1" 200 465
(...)
1.2.3.4 - gb [19/Jan/2008:14:25:10 +0100] "LOCK /myrepo.git/info/refs HTTP/1.1" 423 363

With this patch, there would have be two UNLOCKs in addition of the LOCKs

From the user's point of view:

- If you realize that you should have typed e.g. "git push http
master" instead of "git push http", you will have to wait for 10
minutes for the lock to expire by its own.

- Furthermore, if somebody else is dumb enough to type "git push http"
while you need to push "master" branch, then you'll need too to wait
for 10 minutes too.

parse_commit_buffer: tighten checks while parsingMartin Koegler Sat, 19 Jan 2008 17:35:23 +0000 (18:35 +0100)

parse_commit_buffer: tighten checks while parsing

This tightens the parsing of a commit object in a couple of ways.

- The "tree " header must end with a LF (earlier we did not
check this condition).

- Make sure parsing of timestamp on the "committer " header
does not go beyond the buffer, even when (1) the "author "
header does not end with a LF (this means that the commit
object is malformed and lacks the committer information) or
(2) the "committer " header does not have ">" that is the end
of the e-mail address, or (3) the "committer " header does
not end with a LF.

We however still keep the existing behaviour to return a parsed
commit object even when non-structural headers such as committer
and author are malformed, so that tools that need to look at
commits to clean up a history with such broken commits can still
get at the structural data (i.e. the parents chain and the tree
object).
