Many scripted Porcelains rely on being able to split words at the
default $IFS characters, i.e. SP, HT and LF. If the user exports a
non-default IFS to the environment, what they read from plumbing
commands such as ls-files that use HT to delimit fields may not be
split in the way we expect.
Protect outselves by resetting it, just like we do so against CDPATH
exported to the environment.
bundle: remove stray single-quote from error message
After running rev-list --boundary to retrieve the list of boundary
commits, "git bundle create" runs its own revision walk. If in this
stage git encounters an unfamiliar option, it writes a message with an
unbalanced quotation mark:
error: unrecognized argument: --foo'
Drop the stray quote to match the "unrecognized argument: %s" message
used elsewhere and save translators some work.
This is mostly a futureproofing measure: for now, the "rev-list
--boundary" command catches most strange arguments on its own and the
above message is not seen unless you try something esoteric like "git
bundle create test.bundle --header HEAD".

Documentation: improve description of GIT_EDITOR and preference order
Previously GIT_EDITOR was not listed in git(1) "Environment Variables" section,
which could be very confusing to users. Include it in "other" subsection along
with a link to git-var(1), since that is the page that fully describes all
places where editor can be set and also their preference order.
Also, git-var(1) did not say that hardcoded fallback 'vi' may have been changed
at build time. A user could be puzzled if 'nano' pops up even when none of the
mentioned environment vars or config.editor are set. Clarify this.
Ideally, the build system should be changed to reflect the chosen fallback
editor when creating the man pages. Not sure if that is even possible though.

Even though 1.7.9.x series does not open the editor by default
when merging in general, it does do so in one occassion: when
merging an annotated tag. And worse yet, there is no good way
for older scripts to decline this.
Backport the support for GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT environment variable
from 1.7.10 track to help those stuck on 1.7.9.x maintenance
track.
Git 1.7.8 introduced an object and history re-validation step after
"fetch" or "push" causes new history to be added to a receiving
repository. This is to protect a malicious server or pushing client from
corrupting the repository by taking advantage of an existing corrupt
object that is unconnected to existing history.
But this check is way over-pessimistic. During "fetch" or "receive-pack"
(the server side of "push"), unpack-objects and index-pack already
validate individual objects that are received, and the only thing we would
want to catch are corrupted objects that already happen to exist in our
repository but are not referenced from our refs. Such objects must have
been written by an earlier run of our codepaths that write out loose
objects or packfiles, and they must have done the validation of individual
objects when they did so. The only thing left to worry about is the
connectivity integrity, which can be checked with "rev-list --objects",
which is much cheaper. We have been paying the 5x to 8x runtime overhead
the --verify-objects often adds for no real gain.
Revert check_everything_connected() not to use this over-pessimistic
check.

performance regression and endured multiple rounds of reviews to fix it.

fast-import: don't allow 'ls' of path with empty components
As the fast-import manual explains:
The value of <path> must be in canonical form. That is it must
not:
. contain an empty directory component (e.g. foo//bar is invalid),
. end with a directory separator (e.g. foo/ is invalid),
. start with a directory separator (e.g. /foo is invalid),
Unfortunately the "ls" command accepts these invalid syntaxes and
responds by declaring that the indicated path is missing. This is too
subtle and causes importers to silently misbehave; better to error out
so the operator knows what's happening.
The C, R, and M commands already error out for such paths.

The construct 'while IFS== read' makes dash 0.5.6 execute
read without changing IFS, which results in test breakages
all over the place in t0300. Neither dash 0.5.5.1 and older
nor dash 0.5.7 and newer are affected: The problem was
introduded resp. fixed by the commits
55c46b7 ([BUILTIN] Honor tab as IFS whitespace when
splitting fields in readcmd, 2009-08-11)
1d806ac ([VAR] Do not poplocalvars prematurely on regular
utilities, 2010-05-27)
in http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/dash/dash.git
Putting 'IFS==' before that line makes all versions of dash
work.
This looks like a dash bug, not a misinterpretation of the
standard. However, it's worth working around for two
reasons. One, this version of dash was released in Fedora
14-16, so the bug is found in the wild. And two, at least
one other shell, Solaris /bin/sh, choked on this by
persisting IFS after the read invocation. That is not a
shell we usually care about, and I think this use of IFS is
acceptable by POSIX (which allows other behavior near
"special builtins", but "read" is not one of those). But it
seems that this may be a subtle, not-well-tested case for
some shells. Given that the workaround is so simple, it's
worth just being defensive.

bundle: keep around names passed to add_pending_object()
The 'name' field passed to add_pending_object() is used to later
deduplicate in object_array_remove_duplicates().
git-bundle had a bug in this area since 18449ab (git-bundle: avoid
packing objects which are in the prerequisites, 2007-03-08): it passed
the name of each boundary object in a static buffer. In other words,
all that object_array_remove_duplicates() saw was the name of the
*last* added boundary object.
The recent switch to a strbuf in bc2fed4 (bundle: use a strbuf to scan
the log for boundary commits, 2012-02-22) made this slightly worse: we
now free the buffer at the end, so it is not even guaranteed that it
still points into addressable memory by the time object_array_remove_
duplicates looks at it. On the plus side however, it was now
detectable by valgrind.
The fix is easy: pass a copy of the string to add_pending_object.

diff -p: squelch "diff --git" header for stat-dirty paths
The plumbing "diff" commands look at the working tree files without
refreshing the index themselves for performance reasons (the calling
script is expected to do that upfront just once, before calling one or
more of them). In the early days of git, they showed the "diff --git"
header before they actually ask the xdiff machinery to produce patches,
and ended up showing only these headers if the real contents are the same
and the difference they noticed was only because the stat info cached in
the index did not match that of the working tree. It was too late for the
implementation to take the header that it already emitted back.
But 3e97c7c (No diff -b/-w output for all-whitespace changes, 2009-11-19)
introduced necessary logic to keep the meta-information headers in a
strbuf and delay their output until the xdiff machinery noticed actual
changes. This was primarily in order to generate patches that ignore
whitespaces. When operating under "-w" mode, we wouldn't know if the
header is needed until we actually look at the resulting patch, so it was
a sensible thing to do, but we did not realize that the same reasoning
applies to stat-dirty paths.
Later, 296c6bb (diff: fix "git show -C -C" output when renaming a binary
file, 2010-05-26) generalized this machinery and added must_show_header
toggle. This is turned on when the header must be shown even when there
is no patch to be produced, e.g. only the mode was changed, or the path
was renamed, without changing the contents. However, when it did so, it
still kept the special case for the "-w" mode, which meant that the
plumbing would keep showing these phantom changes.
This corrects this historical inconsistency by allowing the plumbing to
omit paths that are only stat-dirty from its output in the same way as it
handles whitespace only changes under "-w" option.
The change in the behaviour can be seen in the updated test.
t4011: illustrate "diff-index -p" on stat-dirty paths
The plumbing that looks at the working tree, i.e. "diff-index" and
"diff-files", always emit the "diff --git a/path b/path" header lines
without anything else for paths that are only stat-dirty (i.e. different
only because the cached stat information in the index no longer matches
that of the working tree, but the real contents are the same), when
these commands are run with "-p" option to produce patches.
Illustrate this current behaviour. Also demonstrate that with the "-w"
option, we (correctly) hold off showing a "diff --git" header until actual
differences have been found. This also suppresses the header for merely
stat-dirty files, which is inconsistent.
Match the style to more modern test scripts, namely:
- The first line of each test has prereq, title and opening sq for the
script body. This makes the test shorter while reducing the need for
backslashes.
- Be prepared for the case in which the previous test may have failed.
If a test wants to start from not having "frotz" that the previous test
may have created, write "rm -f frotz", not "rm frotz".
- Prepare the expected output inside your own test.
- The order of comparison to check the result is "diff expected actual",
so that the output will show how the output from the git you just broke
is different from what is expected.
- Write no SP between redirection '>' (or '<' for that matter) and the
filename.

When "git grep" is run with -P/--perl-regexp, it doesn't match ^ and $ at

do not stream large files to pack when filters are in use
Because git's object format requires us to specify the
number of bytes in the object in its header, we must know
the size before streaming a blob into the object database.
This is not a problem when adding a regular file, as we can
get the size from stat(). However, when filters are in use
(such as autocrlf, or the ident, filter, or eol
gitattributes), we have no idea what the ultimate size will
be.
The current code just punts on the whole issue and ignores
filter configuration entirely for files larger than
core.bigfilethreshold. This can generate confusing results
if you use filters for large binary files, as the filter
will suddenly stop working as the file goes over a certain
size. Rather than try to handle unknown input sizes with
streaming, this patch just turns off the streaming
optimization when filters are in use.
This has a slight performance regression in a very specific
case: if you have autocrlf on, but no gitattributes, a large
binary file will avoid the streaming code path because we
don't know beforehand whether it will need conversion or
not. But if you are handling large binary files, you should
be marking them as such via attributes (or at least not
using autocrlf, and instead marking your text files as
such). And the flip side is that if you have a large
_non_-binary file, there is a correctness improvement;
before we did not apply the conversion at all.
The first half of the new t1051 script covers these failures
on input. The second half tests the matching output code
paths. These already work correctly, and do not need any
adjustment.
