mingw: fix t9700's assumption about directory separators

This test assumed that there is only one directory separator (the
forward slash), not two equivalent directory separators.
However, on Windows, the back slash and the forward slash *are*
equivalent.

Let's paper over this issue by converting the backward slashes to
forward ones in the test that fails with MSYS2 otherwise.

mingw: skip test in t1508 that fails due to path conversion

In Git for Windows, the MSYS2 POSIX emulation layer used by the Bash
converts command-line arguments that looks like they refer to a POSIX
path containing a file list (i.e. @<absolute-path>) into a Windows path
equivalent when calling non-MSYS2 executables, such as git.exe.

Let's just skip the test that uses the parameter `@/at-test` that
confuses the MSYS2 runtime.

The Git daemon tests create a FIFO first thing and will hang if said
FIFO is not available.

This is a problem with Git for Windows, where `mkfifo` is an MSYS2
program that leverages MSYS2's POSIX emulation layer, but
`git-daemon.exe` is a MINGW program that has not the first clue about
that POSIX emulation layer and therefore blinks twice when it sees
MSYS2's emulated FIFOs and then just stares into space.

git: simplify environment save/restore logicJunio C Hamano Wed, 27 Jan 2016 06:52:02 +0000 (22:52 -0800)

git: simplify environment save/restore logic

The only code that cares about the value of the global variable
saved_env_before_alias after the previous fix is handle_builtin()
that turns into a glorified no-op when the variable is true, so the
logic could safely be lifted to its caller, i.e. the caller can
refrain from calling it when the variable is set.

This variable tells us if save_env_before_alias() was called (with
or without matching restore_env()), but the sole caller of the
function, handle_alias(), always calls it as the first thing, so we
can consider that the variable essentially keeps track of the fact
that handle_alias() has ever been called.

It turns out that handle_builtin() and handle_alias() are called
only from one function in a way that the value of the variable
matters, which is run_argv(), and it already keeps track of the
fact that it already called handle_alias().

So we can simplify the whole thing by:

- Change handle_builtin() to always make a direct call to the
builtin implementation it finds, and make sure the caller
refrains from calling it if handle_alias() has ever been
called;

- Remove saved_env_before_alias variable, and instead use the
local "done_alias" variable maintained inside run_argv() to
make the same decision.

git: remove an early return from save_env_before_alias()

When help.autocorrect is in effect, an attempt to auto-execute an
uniquely corrected result of a misspelt alias will result in an
irrelevant error message. The codepath that causes this calls
save_env_before_alias() and restore_env() in handle_alias(), and
that happens twice. A global variable orig_cwd is allocated to hold
the return value of getcwd() in save_env_before_alias(), which is
then used in restore_env() to go back to that directory and finally
free(3)'d there.

However, save_env_before_alias() is not prepared to be called twice.
It returns early when it knows it has already been called, leaving
orig_cwd undefined, which is then checked in the second call to
restore_env(), and by that time, the memory that used to hold the
contents of orig_cwd is either freed or reused to hold something
else, and this is fed to chdir(2), causing it to fail. Even if it
did not fail (i.e. reading of the already free'd piece of memory
yielded a directory path that we can chdir(2) to), it then gets
free(3)'d.

Fix this by making sure save_env() does do the saving when called.

While at it, add a minimal test for help.autocorrect facility.

mingw: disable mkfifo-based tests

MSYS2 (the POSIX emulation layer used by Git for Windows' Bash) actually
has a working mkfifo. The only problem is that it is only emulating
named pipes through the MSYS2 runtime; The Win32 API has no idea about
named pipes, hence the Git executable cannot access those pipes either.

The symptom is that Git fails with a '<name>: No such file or directory'
because MSYS2 emulates named pipes through special-crafted '.lnk' files.

The solution is to tell the test suite explicitly that we cannot use
named pipes when we want to test on Windows.

This lets t4056-diff-order.sh, t9010-svn-fe.sh and t9300-fast-import.sh

mingw: accomodate t0060-path-utils for MSYS2Johannes Schindelin Wed, 27 Jan 2016 16:19:40 +0000 (17:19 +0100)

mingw: accomodate t0060-path-utils for MSYS2

On Windows, there are no POSIX paths, only Windows ones (an absolute
Windows path looks like "C:\Program Files\Git\ReleaseNotes.html", under
most circumstances, forward slashes are also allowed and synonymous to
backslashes).

So when a POSIX shell (such as MSYS2's Bash, which is used by Git for
Windows to execute all those shell scripts that are part of Git) passes
a POSIX path to test-path-utils.exe (which is not POSIX-aware), the path
is translated into a Windows path. For example, /etc/profile becomes
C:/Program Files/Git/etc/profile.

This path translation poses a problem when passing the root directory as
parameter to test-path-utils.exe, as it is not well defined whether the
translated root directory should end in a slash or not. MSys1 stripped
the trailing slash, but MSYS2 does not.

Originally, the Git for Windows project patched MSYS2's runtime to
accomodate Git's regression test, but we really should do it the other
way round.

To work with both of MSys1's and MSYS2's behaviors, we simply test what
the current system does in the beginning of t0060-path-utils.sh and then
adjust the expected longest ancestor length accordingly.

It looks quite a bit tricky what we actually do in this patch: first, we
adjust the expected length for the trailing slash we did not originally
expect (subtracting one). So far, so good.

But now comes the part where things work in a surprising way: when the
expected length was 0, the prefix to match is the root directory. If the
root directory is converted into a path with a trailing slash, however,
we know that the logic in longest_ancestor_length() cannot match: to
avoid partial matches of the last directory component, it verifies that
the character after the matching prefix is a slash (but because the
slash was part of the matching prefix, the next character cannot be a
slash). So the return value is -1. Alas, this is exactly what the
expected length is after subtracting the value of $rootslash! So we skip
adding the $rootoff value in that case (and only in that case).

Directories other than the root directory are handled fine (as they are
specified without a trailing slash, something not possible for the root
directory, and MSYS2 converts them into Windows paths that also lack
trailing slashes), therefore we do not need any more special handling.

Thanks to Ray Donnelly for his patient help with this issue.

test-dump-untracked-cache: don't modify the untracked cache

To correctly perform its testing function,
test-dump-untracked-cache should not change the state of the
untracked cache in the index.

As a previous patch makes read_index_from() change the state of
the untracked cache and as test-dump-untracked-cache indirectly
calls this function, we need a mechanism to prevent
read_index_from() from changing the untracked cache state when
it's called from test-dump-untracked-cache.

config: add core.untrackedCacheChristian Couder Wed, 27 Jan 2016 06:58:05 +0000 (07:58 +0100)

config: add core.untrackedCache

When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment
is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the
untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or
kernel name check being performed.

Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of
untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a
network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be
automatically removed from the index.

Allow the user to express such preference by setting the
'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take
'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'.

When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the
untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this
variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the
variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is
`true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`.

`git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the
untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this
shows a warning if it goes against the value of
core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read
the untracked cache will be added or removed if the
configuration is set to do so.

Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying
operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a
directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But
because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no
longer performs them. Instead, there is now
`--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change
makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`.

This last change is backward incompatible and should be
mentioned in the release notes.

merge-file: let conflict markers match end-of-line style of the context

When merging files with CR/LF line endings, the conflict markers should
match those, lest the output file has mixed line endings.

This is particularly of interest on Windows, where some editors get
*really* confused by mixed line endings.

The original version of this patch by Beat Bolli respected core.eol, and
a subsequent improvement by this developer also respected gitattributes.
This approach was suboptimal, though: `git merge-file` was invented as a
drop-in replacement for GNU merge and as such has no problem operating
outside of any repository at all!

Another problem with the original approach was pointed out by Junio
Hamano: legacy repositories might have their text files committed using
CR/LF line endings (and core.eol and the gitattributes would give us a
false impression there). Therefore, the much superior approach is to
simply match the context's line endings, if any.

We actually do not have to look at the *entire* context at all: if the
files are all LF-only, or if they all have CR/LF line endings, it is
sufficient to look at just a *single* line to match that style. And if
the line endings are mixed anyway, it is *still* okay to imitate just a
single line's eol: we will just add to the pile of mixed line endings,
and there is nothing we can do about that.

So what we do is: we look at the line preceding the conflict, falling
back to the line preceding that in case it was the last line and had no
line ending, falling back to the first line, first in the first
post-image, then the second post-image, and finally the pre-image.
If we find consistent CR/LF (or undecided) end-of-line style, we match
that, otherwise we use LF-only line endings for the conflict markers.

Note that while it is true that there have to be at least two lines we
can look at (otherwise there would be no conflict), the same is not true
for line *endings*: the three files in question could all consist of a
single line without any line ending, each. In this case we fall back to
using LF-only.

git-svn: fix auth parameter handling on SVN 1.9.0+

For users with "store-passwords = no" set in the "[auth]" section of
their ~/.subversion/config, SVN 1.9.0+ would fail with the
following message when attempting to call svn_auth_set_parameter:

Value is not a string (or undef) at Git/SVN/Ra.pm

Ironically, this breakage was caused by r1553823 in subversion:

"Make svn_auth_set_parameter() usable from Perl bindings."

Since 2007 (602015e0e6ec), git-svn has used a workaround to make
svn_auth_set_parameter usable internally. However this workaround
breaks under SVN 1.9+, which deals properly with the type mapping
and fails to recognize our workaround.

For pre-1.9.0 SVN, we continue to use the existing workaround for
the lack of proper type mapping in the bindings.

Tested under subversion 1.6.17 and 1.9.3.

I've also verified r1553823 was not backported to SVN 1.8.x:

plain `git.exe`, which does *not* leverage the POSIX emulation layer,
and therefore the paths we pass to Perl may actually be DOS-style paths
such as C:/Program Files/Git.

So let's just use Perl's own way to test whether a given path is

tag: do not show ambiguous tag names as "tags/foo"

Since b7cc53e9 (tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs, 2015-07-11),
git-tag has started showing tags with ambiguous names (i.e.,
when both "heads/foo" and "tags/foo" exists) as "tags/foo"
instead of just "foo". This is both:

- pointless; the output of "git tag" includes only
refs/tags, so we know that "foo" means the one in
"refs/tags".

and

- ambiguous; in the original output, we know that the line
"foo" means that "refs/tags/foo" exists. In the new
output, it is unclear whether we mean "refs/tags/foo" or
"refs/tags/tags/foo".

The reason this happens is that commit b7cc53e9 switched
git-tag to use ref-filter's "%(refname:short)" output
formatting, which was adapted from for-each-ref. This more
general code does not know that we care only about tags, and
uses shorten_unambiguous_ref to get the short-name. We need
to tell it that we care only about "refs/tags/", and it
should shorten with respect to that value.

In theory, the ref-filter code could figure this out by us
passing FILTER_REFS_TAGS. But there are two complications
there:

1. The handling of refname:short is deep in formatting
code that does not even have our ref_filter struct, let
alone the arguments to the filter_ref struct.

2. In git v2.7.0, we expose the formatting language to the
user. If we follow this path, it will mean that
"%(refname:short)" behaves differently for "tag" versus
"for-each-ref" (including "for-each-ref refs/tags/"),
which can lead to confusion.

Instead, let's add a new modifier to the formatting
language, "strip", to remove a specific set of prefix
components. This fixes "git tag", and lets users invoke the
same behavior from their own custom formats (for "tag" or
"for-each-ref") while leaving ":short" with its same
consistent meaning in all places.

We introduce a test in t7004 for "git tag", which fails
without this patch. We also add a similar test in t3203 for
"git branch", which does not actually fail. But since it is
likely that "branch" will eventually use the same formatting
code, the test helps defend against future regressions.

http: use credential API to handle proxy authenticationKnut Franke Tue, 26 Jan 2016 13:02:48 +0000 (13:02 +0000)

http: use credential API to handle proxy authentication

Currently, the only way to pass proxy credentials to curl is by including them
in the proxy URL. Usually, this means they will end up on disk unencrypted, one
way or another (by inclusion in ~/.gitconfig, shell profile or history). Since
proxy authentication often uses a domain user, credentials can be security
sensitive; therefore, a safer way of passing credentials is desirable.

If the configured proxy contains a username but not a password, query the
credential API for one. Also, make sure we approve/reject proxy credentials
properly.

For consistency reasons, add parsing of http_proxy/https_proxy/all_proxy
environment variables, which would otherwise be evaluated as a fallback by curl.
Without this, we would have different semantics for git configuration and
environment variables.

http: allow selection of proxy authentication method

CURLAUTH_ANY does not work with proxies which answer unauthenticated requests
with a 307 redirect to an error page instead of a 407 listing supported
authentication methods. Therefore, allow the authentication method to be set
using the environment variable GIT_HTTP_PROXY_AUTHMETHOD or configuration
variables http.proxyAuthmethod and remote.<name>.proxyAuthmethod (in analogy
to http.proxy and remote.<name>.proxy).

The following values are supported:

* anyauth (default)
* basic
* digest
* negotiate
* ntlm

travis-ci: run previously failed tests first, then slowest to fastest

The Travis-CI machines are in a clean state in the beginning of every run
(transient by default). Use the Travis-CI cache feature to make the prove
state persistent across consecutive Travis-CI runs on the same branch.
This allows to run previously failed tests first and run remaining tests
in slowest to fastest order. As a result it is less likely that Travis-CI
needs to wait for a single test at the end which speeds up the test suite
execution by ~2 min.

Travis-CI can only cache entire directories. Prove stores the .prove file
always in the t/ directory but we don't want to cache the entire t/ directory.
Therefore we create a symlink from $HOME/travis-cache/.prove to t/.prove and
cache the $HOME/travis-cache directory.

Unfortunately the cache feature is only available (for free) on the
Travis-CI Linux environment.

mingw: avoid linking to the C library's isalpha()

The implementation of mingw_skip_dos_drive_prefix() calls isalpha() via
has_dos_drive_prefix(). Since the definition occurs long before isalpha()
is defined in git-compat-util.h, my build environment reports:

CC alloc.o
In file included from git-compat-util.h:186,
from cache.h:4,
from alloc.c:12:
compat/mingw.h: In function 'mingw_skip_dos_drive_prefix':
compat/mingw.h:365: warning: implicit declaration of function 'isalpha'

Dscho does not see a similar warning in his build and suspects that
ctype.h is included somehow behind the scenes. This implies that his build
links to the C library's isalpha() and does not use git's isalpha().

To fix both the warning in my build and the inconsistency in Dscho's
build, move the function definition to mingw.c. Then it picks up git's
isalpha() because git-compat-util.h is included at the top of the file.

dir: simplify untracked cache "ident" fieldChristian Couder Sun, 24 Jan 2016 15:28:21 +0000 (16:28 +0100)

dir: simplify untracked cache "ident" field

It is not a good idea to compare kernel versions and disable
the untracked cache if it changes, as people may upgrade and
still want the untracked cache to work. So let's just
compare work tree locations and kernel name to decide if we
should disable it.

Also storing many locations in the ident field and comparing
to any of them can be dangerous if GIT_WORK_TREE is used with
different values. So let's just store one location, the
location of the current work tree.

The downside is that untracked cache can only be used by one
type of OS for now. Exporting a git repo to different clients
via a network to e.g. Linux and Windows means that only one
can use the untracked cache.

If the location changed in the ident field and we still want
an untracked cache, let's delete the cache and recreate it.

Note that if an untracked cache has been created by a
previous Git version, then the kernel version is stored in
the ident field. As we now compare with just the kernel
name the comparison will fail and the untracked cache will
be disabled until it's recreated.

Attempting to flip the untracked-cache feature on for a random index

resolve_gitlink_ref: ignore non-repository pathsJeff King Fri, 22 Jan 2016 22:29:30 +0000 (17:29 -0500)

resolve_gitlink_ref: ignore non-repository paths

When we want to look up a submodule ref, we use
get_ref_cache(path) to find or auto-create its ref cache.
But if we feed a path that isn't actually a git repository,
we blindly create the ref cache, and then may die deeper in
the code when we try to access it. This is a problem because
many callers speculatively feed us a path that looks vaguely
like a repository, and expect us to tell them when it is
not.

This patch teaches resolve_gitlink_ref to reject
non-repository paths without creating a ref_cache. This
avoids the die(), and also performs better if you have a
large number of these faux-submodule directories (because
the ref_cache lookup is linear, under the assumption that
there won't be a large number of submodules).

To accomplish this, we also break get_ref_cache into two
pieces: the lookup and auto-creation (the latter is lumped
into create_ref_cache). This lets us first cheaply ask our
cache "is it a submodule we know about?" If so, we can avoid
repeating our filesystem lookup. So lookups of real
submodules are not penalized; they examine the submodule's
.git directory only once.

The test in t3000 demonstrates a case where this improves
correctness (we used to just die). The new perf case in
p7300 shows off the speed improvement in an admittedly
pathological repository:

Test HEAD^ HEAD

However, the fix in 0179ca7 needs to be applied other
places, too. Let's make this new helper globally available.
We need to give it a better name, though, to avoid confusion
with is_git_directory(). This patch does that, documents
both functions with a comment to reduce confusion, and
removes the clean-specific references in the comments.

worktree: stop supporting moving worktrees manually

The current update_linked_gitdir() has a bug that can create "gitdir"
file in non-multi-worktree setup. Worse, sometimes it can write relative
path to "gitdir" file, which will not work (e.g. "git worktree list"
will display the worktree's location incorrectly)

Instead of fixing this, we step back a bit. The original design was
probably not well thought out. For now, if the user manually moves a
worktree, they have to fix up "gitdir" file manually or the worktree
will get pruned.

filter-branch: resolve $commit^{tree} in no-index caseJeff King Tue, 19 Jan 2016 22:07:22 +0000 (17:07 -0500)

filter-branch: resolve $commit^{tree} in no-index case

Commit 348d4f2 (filter-branch: skip index read/write when
possible, 2015-11-06) taught filter-branch to optimize out
the final "git write-tree" when we know we haven't touched
the tree with any of our filters. It does by simply putting
the literal text "$commit^{tree}" into the "$tree" variable,
avoiding a useless rev-parse call.

However, when we pass this to git_commit_non_empty_tree(),
it gets confused; it resolves "$commit^{tree}" itself, and
compares our string to the 40-hex sha1, which obviously
doesn't match. As a result, "--prune-empty" (or any custom
filter using git_commit_non_empty_tree) will fail to drop
an empty commit (when filter-branch is used without a tree
or index filter).

Let's resolve $tree to the 40-hex ourselves, so that
git_commit_non_empty_tree can work. Unfortunately, this is a
bit slower due to the extra process overhead:

$ cd t/perf && ./run 348d4f2 HEAD p7000-filter-branch.sh
[...]
Test 348d4f2 HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------
7000.2: noop filter 3.76(0.24+0.26) 4.54(0.28+0.24) +20.7%

We could try to make git_commit_non_empty_tree more clever.
However, the value of $tree here is technically
user-visible. The user can provide arbitrary shell code at
this stage, which could itself have a similar assumption to
what is in git_commit_non_empty_tree. So the conservative
choice to fix this regression is to take the 20% hit and
give the pre-348d4f2 behavior. We still end up much faster
than before the optimization:

$ cd t/perf && ./run 348d4f2^ HEAD p7000-filter-branch.sh
[...]
Test 348d4f2^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------
7000.2: noop filter 9.51(4.32+0.40) 4.51(0.28+0.23) -52.6%

ls-remote: add support for showing symrefs

Sometimes it's useful to know the main branch of a git repository
without actually downloading the repository. This can be done by
looking at the symrefs stored in the remote repository. Currently git
doesn't provide a simple way to show the symrefs stored on the remote
repository, even though the information is available. Add a --symref
command line argument to the ls-remote command, which shows the symrefs
in the remote repository.

While there, replace a literal tab in the format string with \t to make
it more obvious to the reader.

shortlog: don't warn on empty authorJeff King Mon, 18 Jan 2016 23:04:35 +0000 (18:04 -0500)

shortlog: don't warn on empty author

Git tries to avoid creating a commit with an empty author
name or email. However, commits created by older, less
strict versions of git may still be in the history. There's
not much point in issuing a warning to stderr for an empty
author. The user can't do anything about it now, and we are
better off to simply include it in the shortlog output as an
empty name/email, and let the caller process it however they
see fit.

Older versions of shortlog differentiated between "author
header not present" (which complained) and "author
name/email are blank" (which included the empty ident in the
output). But since switching to format_commit_message, we
complain to stderr about either case (linux.git has a blank
author deep in its history which triggers this).

We could try to restore the older behavior (complaining only
about the missing header), but in retrospect, there's not
much point in differentiating these cases. A missing
author header is bogus, but as for the "blank" case, the
only useful behavior is to add it to the "empty name"
collection.

If we are in "--summary" mode, then we do not care about the
actual list of subject onelines associated with each author.
We care only about the number. So rather than store a

keep a count.

This drops my best-of-five for "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on

shortlog: optimize out useless "<none>" normalization

if we aren't going to use the result anyway.

This drops my best-of-five for "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on
linux.git from:

to:

That's only ~7%, but it's so easy to do, there's no good
reason not to. We don't have to touch any downstream code,
since we already fill in the magic string "<none>" to handle

shortlog: replace hand-parsing of author with pretty-printer

When gathering the author and oneline subject for each
commit, we hand-parse the commit headers to find the
"author" line, and then continue past to the blank line at
the end of the header.

We can replace this tricky hand-parsing by simply asking the
pretty-printer for the relevant items. This also decouples
the author and oneline parsing, opening up some new
optimizations in further commits.

One reason to avoid the pretty-printer is that it might be
less efficient than hand-parsing. However, I measured no
slowdown at all running "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on
linux.git.

As a bonus, we also fix a memory leak in the (uncommon) case
that the author field is blank.

The original git-shortlog could read both the normal "git

it was converted to C by b8ec592 (Build in shortlog,
2006-10-22), the trailing colon became mandatory, and we no
longer matched the raw output.

Given the amount of intervening time without any bug
reports, it's probable that nobody cares. But it's
relatively easy to fix, and the end result is hopefully more
readable than the original.

Note that this no longer matches "author: ", which we did
before, but that has never been a format generated by git.

ls-files: add eol diagnostics

When working in a cross-platform environment, a user may want to
check if text files are stored normalized in the repository and
if .gitattributes are set appropriately.

Make it possible to let Git show the line endings in the index and
in the working tree and the effective text/eol attributes.

The end of line ("eolinfo") are shown like this:

"-text" binary (or with bare CR) file
"none" text file without any EOL
"lf" text file with LF
"crlf" text file with CRLF
"mixed" text file with mixed line endings.

The effective text/eol attribute is one of these:

"", "-text", "text", "text=auto", "text eol=lf", "text eol=crlf"

git ls-files --eol gives an output like this:

i/none w/none attr/text=auto t/t5100/empty
i/-text w/-text attr/-text t/test-binary-2.png
i/lf w/lf attr/text eol=lf t/t5100/rfc2047-info-0007
i/lf w/crlf attr/text eol=crlf doit.bat
i/mixed w/mixed attr/ locale/XX.po

to show what eol convention is used in the data in the index ('i'),
and in the working tree ('w'), and what attribute is in effect,
for each path that is shown.
