When discovering a .git/ directory, we take pains to ensure that its
repository format version matches Git's expectations, and we return NULL
otherwise.
However, we still appended the invalid path to the strbuf passed as
argument.
Let's just reset the strbuf to the state before we appended the .git/
directory that was eventually rejected.
There is another early return path in that function, when
setup_git_directory_gently_1() returns GIT_DIR_NONE or an error. In that
case, the gitdir parameter has not been touched, therefore there is no
need for an equivalent change in that code path.

The diff-so-fancy project is also written in perl, and most
of its users pipe diffs through both diff-highlight and
diff-so-fancy. It would be nice if this could be done in a
single script. So let's pull most of diff-highlight's code
into its own module which can be used by diff-so-fancy.
In addition, we'll abstract a few basic items like reading
from stdio so that a script using the module can do more
processing before or after diff-highlight handles the lines.
See the README update for more details.
One small downside is that the diff-highlight script must
now be built using the Makefile. There are ways around this,
but it quickly gets into perl arcana. Let's go with the
simple solution. As a bonus, our Makefile now respects the
PERL_PATH variable if it is set.

doc: do not use `rm .git/index` when normalizing line endings
When illustrating how to normalize the line endings, the
documentation in gitattributes tells the user to `rm .git/index`.
This is incorrect for two reasons:
- Users shouldn't be instructed to mess around with the internal
implementation of Git using raw file system tools like `rm`.
- Within a submodule or an additional working tree `.git` is just a
file containing a `gitdir: <path>` pointer into the real `.git`
directory. Therefore `rm .git/index` does not work.
The purpose of the `rm .git/index` instruction is to remove all entries
from the index without touching the working tree. The way to do this
with Git is to use `read-tree --empty`.

Some submodule tests do some setup outside of a test_expect
block. This is bad because we won't actually check the
outcome of those commands. But it's doubly so because "git
add submodule" now produces a warning to stderr, which is
not suppressed by the test scripts in non-verbose mode.
This patch does the minimal to fix the annoying warnings.
All three of these scripts could use more cleanup of related
setup.

It's an easy mistake to add a repository inside another
repository, like:
git clone $url
git add .
The resulting entry is a gitlink, but there's no matching
.gitmodules entry. Trying to use "submodule init" (or clone
with --recursive) doesn't do anything useful. Prior to
v2.13, such an entry caused git-submodule to barf entirely.
In v2.13, the entry is considered "inactive" and quietly
ignored. Either way, no clone of your repository can do
anything useful with the gitlink without the user manually
adding the submodule config.
In most cases, the user probably meant to either add a real
submodule, or they forgot to put the embedded repository in
their .gitignore file.
Let's issue a warning when we see this case. There are a few
things to note:
- the warning will go in the git-add porcelain; anybody
wanting to do low-level manipulation of the index is
welcome to create whatever funny states they want.
- we detect the case by looking for a newly added gitlink;
updates via "git add submodule" are perfectly reasonable,
and this avoids us having to investigate .gitmodules
entirely
- there's a command-line option to suppress the warning.
This is needed for git-submodule itself (which adds the
entry before adding any submodule config), but also
provides a mechanism for other scripts doing
submodule-like things.
We could make this a hard error instead of a warning.
However, we do add lots of sub-repos in our test suite. It's
not _wrong_ to do so. It just creates a state where users
may be surprised. Pointing them in the right direction with
a gentle hint is probably the best option.
There is a config knob that can disable the (long) hint. But
I intentionally omitted a config knob to disable the warning
entirely. Whether the warning is sensible or not is
generally about context, not about the user's preferences.
If there's a tool or workflow that adds gitlinks without
matching .gitmodules, it should probably be taught about the
new command-line option, rather than blanket-disabling the
warning.

Although we mirror the Git core repository to github.com [1] we do not
use any other github.com service. This is unknown/unexpected to a

Requests against our mirror with their contributions. These Pull
Requests become stale. This is frustrating to them as they think we

git-stash: fix pushing stash with pathspec from subdir
The `git stash push` command recently gained the ability to get a
pathspec as its argument to only stash matching files. Calling this
command from a subdirectory does not work, though, as one of the first
things we do is changing to the top level directory without keeping
track of the prefix from which the command is being run.
Fix the shortcoming by storing the prefix previous to the call to
`cd_to_toplevel` and then subsequently using `git rev-parse --prefix` to
correctly resolve the pathspec. Add a test to catch future breakage of
this usecase.

Add a test for the case when only one parameter is passed to '-m'

Add test for making sure HEAD points to the bbb (new branch name). Also
add a test for making sure the reflog that is moved to 'bbb' retains
entries created for the currently checked out branch. Note that since
the topmost entry on reflog for bbb will be about branch creation, we
compare bbb@{1} (instead of bbb@{0}) with aaa@{0} to make sure the

Commit 28ed9830b1 (get_packed_ref_cache(): assume "packed-refs" won't
change while locked, 2017-05-22) assumes that the "packed-refs" file
cannot change while we hold the lock. That assumption is
justified *if* the lock has been held the whole time since the
"packed-refs" file was last read.
But in `lock_packed_refs()`, we ourselves lock the "packed-refs" file
and then call `get_packed_ref_cache()` to ensure that the cache agrees
with the file. The intent is to guard against the possibility that
another process changed the "packed-refs" file the moment before we
locked it.
This check was defeated because `get_packed_ref_cache()` saw that the
file was locked, and therefore didn't do the `stat_validity_check()`
that we want.
The mistake was compounded with a misleading comment in
`lock_packed_refs()` claiming that it was doing the right thing. That
comment came from an earlier draft of the mh/packed-ref-store-prep
patch series when the commits were in a different order.
So instead:
* Extract a function `validate_packed_ref_cache()` that does the
validity check independent of whether the lock is held.
* Change `get_packed_ref_cache()` to call the new function, but only
if the lock *isn't* held.
* Change `lock_packed_refs()` to call the new function in any case
before calling `get_packed_ref_cache()`.
* Fix the comment in `lock_packed_refs()`.

Interestingly, fast-import uses pack.depth when it's set, and the

t5313: make extended-table test more deterministic
Commit a1283866b (t5313: test bounds-checks of
corrupted/malicious pack/idx files, 2016-02-25) added a test
that requires our corrupted pack index to have two objects.
The entry for the first one remains untouched, but we
corrupt the entry for second one. Since the index stores the
entries in sha1-sorted order, this means that the test must
make sure that the sha1 of the object we expect to be
corrupted ("$object") sorts after the other placeholder
object.
That commit used the HEAD commit as the placeholder, but the
script never calls test_tick. That means that the commit
object (and thus its sha1) depends on the timestamp when the
test script is run. This usually works in practice, because
the sha1 of $object starts with "fff". The commit object
will sort after that only 1 in 4096 times, but when it does
the test will fail.
One obvious solution is to add the test_tick call to get a
deterministic commit sha1. But since we're relying on the
sort order for the test to function, let's make that very
explicit by just generating a second blob with a known sha1.

have any systematic tests. This led to "git am -h" being

Unfortunately the commands in the log- and the diff- family want to
call into the revisions machinery, which by definition needs to have
a repository already discovered. Strictly speaking, they may not
need a repository only for parsing "-h", but it is a good discipline
to future-proof codepath to ensure that setup_revisions() is called
after we know that a repository is there.

commands to work around potential issues.
