That sets up for later tests that fetch the branch and check that git
svn mangles the refname appropriately.
Unfortunately, modern svn versions interpret path arguments with an
@-sign as an example of path@revision syntax (which pegs a path to a
particular revision) and truncate the path or error out with message
"svn: E205000: Syntax error parsing peg revision '{0}reflog'".
When using subversion 1.6.x, escaping the @ sign as %40 avoids trouble
(see 08fd28bb, 2010-07-08). Newer versions are stricter:
The recommended method for escaping a literal @ sign in a path passed
to subversion is to add an empty peg revision at the end of the path
("branches/not-a@{0}reflog@"). Do that.
Pre-1.6.12 versions of Subversion probably treat the trailing @ as
another literal @-sign (svn issue 3651). Luckily ever since
v1.8.0-rc0~155^2~7 (t9118: workaround inconsistency between SVN
versions, 2012-07-28) the test can survive that.
Tested with Debian Subversion 1.6.12dfsg-6 and 1.7.5-1 and r1395837
of Subversion trunk (1.8.x).

git svn: work around SVN 1.7 mishandling of svn:special changes
Subversion represents symlinks as ordinary files with content starting
with "link " and the svn:special property set to "*". Thus a file can
switch between being a symlink and a non-symlink simply by toggling
its svn:special property, and new checkouts will automatically write a
file of the appropriate type. Likewise, in subversion 1.6 and older,
running "svn update" would notice changes in filetype and update the
working copy appropriately.
Starting in subversion 1.7 (issue 4091), changes to the svn:special
property trip an assertion instead:
$ svn up svn-tree
Updating 'svn-tree':
svn: E235000: In file 'subversion/libsvn_wc/update_editor.c' \
line 1583: assertion failed (action == svn_wc_conflict_action_edit \
|| action == svn_wc_conflict_action_delete || action == \
svn_wc_conflict_action_replace)
Revisions prepared with ordinary svn commands ("svn add" and not "svn
propset") don't trip this because they represent these filetype
changes using a replace operation, which is approximately equivalent
to removal followed by adding a new file and works fine. Follow suit.
Noticed using t9100. After this change, git-svn's file-to-symlink
changes are sent in a format that modern "svn update" can handle and
tests t9100.11-13 pass again.

Now the grep_config() callback is reusable from other configuration
callbacks, call it from git_log_config() so that grep.patterntype
and friends can be used with the commands in the "git log" family.
log --grep: accept --basic-regexp and --perl-regexp
When we added the "--perl-regexp" option (or "-P") to "git grep", we
should have done the same for the commands in the "git log" family,
but somehow we forgot to do so. This corrects it, but we will
reserve the short-and-sweet "-P" option for something else for now.
Also introduce the "--basic-regexp" option for completeness, so that
the "last one wins" principle can be used to defeat an earlier -E
option, e.g. "git log -E --basic-regexp --grep='<bre>'". Note that
it cannot have the short "-G" option as the option is to grep in the
patch text in the context of "log" family.
log --grep: use the same helper to set -E/-F options as "git grep"
The command line option parser for "git log -F -E --grep='<ere>'"
did not flip the "fixed" bit, violating the general "last option
wins" principle among conflicting options.
revisions: initialize revs->grep_filter using grep_init()
Instead of using the hand-rolled initialization sequence,
use grep_init() to populate the necessary bits. This opens
the door to allow the calling commands to optionally read
grep.* configuration variables via git_config() if they
want to.
grep: move pattern-type bits support to top-level grep.[ch]
Switching between -E/-G/-P/-F correctly needs a lot more than just
flipping opt->regflags bit these days, and we have a nice helper
function buried in builtin/grep.c for the sole use of "git grep".
Extract it so that "log --grep" family can also use it.
grep: move the configuration parsing logic to grep.[ch]
The configuration handling is a library-ish part of this program,
that is not specific to "git grep" command. It should be reusable
by "log" and others.
builtin/grep.c: make configuration callback more reusable
The grep_config() function takes one instance of grep_opt as its
callback parameter, and populates it by running git_config().
This has three practical implications:
- You have to have an instance of grep_opt already when you call
the configuration, but that is not necessarily always true. You
may be trying to initialize the grep_filter member of rev_info,
but are not ready to call init_revisions() on it yet.
- It is not easy to enhance grep_config() in such a way to make it
cascade to other callback functions to grab other variables in
one call of git_config(); grep_config() can be cascaded into from
other callbacks, but it has to be at the leaf level of a cascade.
- If you ever need to use more than one instance of grep_opt, you
will have to open and read the configuration file(s) every time
you initialize them.
Rearrange the configuration mechanism and model it after how diff
configuration variables are handled. An early call to git_config()
reads and remembers the values taken from the configuration in the
default "template", and a separate call to grep_init() uses this
template to instantiate a grep_opt.
The next step will be to move some of this out of this file so that
the other user of the grep machinery (i.e. "log") can use it.

Connect fast-import to the remote-helper via pipe, adding 'bidi-import' capability
The fast-import commands 'cat-blob' and 'ls' can be used by
remote-helpers to retrieve information about blobs and trees that
already exist in fast-import's memory. This requires a channel from
fast-import to the remote-helper.
remote-helpers that use these features shall advertise the new
'bidi-import' capability to signal that they require the communication
channel. When forking fast-import in transport-helper.c connect it to
a dup of the remote-helper's stdin-pipe. The additional file
descriptor is passed to fast-import via its command line
(--cat-blob-fd). It follows that git and fast-import are connected to
the remote-helpers's stdin.
Because git can send multiple commands to the remote-helper on it's
stdin, it is required that helpers that advertise 'bidi-import' buffer
all input commands until the batch of 'import' commands is ended by a
newline before sending data to fast-import. This is to prevent mixing
commands and fast-import responses on the helper's stdin.

git-svn: keep leading slash when canonicalizing paths (fallback case)
Subversion's svn_dirent_canonicalize() and svn_path_canonicalize()
APIs keep a leading slash in the return value if one was present on
the argument, which can be useful since it allows relative and
absolute paths to be distinguished.
When git-svn's canonicalize_path() learned to use these functions if
available, its semantics changed in the corresponding way. Some new
callers rely on the leading slash --- for example, if the slash is
stripped out then _canonicalize_url_ourselves() will transform
"proto://host/path/to/resource" to "proto://hostpath/to/resource".
Unfortunately the fallback _canonicalize_path_ourselves(), used when
the appropriate SVN APIs are not usable, still follows the old
semantics, so if that code path is exercised then it breaks. Fix it
to follow the new convention.
Noticed by forcing the fallback on and running tests. Without this
patch, t9101.4 fails:
Bad URL passed to RA layer: Unable to open an ra_local session to \

When using the {word,[...]} style of configuration for tags and branches,
it appears the intent is to only match whole path parts, since the words
in the {} pattern are meta-character quoted.
When the pattern word appears in the beginning or middle of the url,
it's matched completely, since the left side, pattern, and (non-empty)
right side are joined together with path separators.
However, when the pattern word appears at the end of the URL, the
right side is an empty pattern, and the resulting regex matches
more than just the specified pattern.
For example, if you specify something along the lines of
branches = branches/project/{release_1,release_2}
and your repository also contains "branches/project/release_1_2", you
will also get the release_1_2 branch. By restricting the match regex
with anchors, this is avoided.

When upload-pack advertises refs, we attempt to peel tags
and advertise the peeled version. We currently hand-roll the
tag dereferencing, and use as many optimizations as we can
to avoid loading non-tag objects into memory.
Not only has peel_ref recently learned these optimizations,
too, but it also contains an even more important one: it
has access to the "peeled" data from the pack-refs file.
That means we can avoid not only loading annotated tags
entirely, but also avoid doing any kind of object lookup at
all.
This cut the CPU time to advertise refs by 50% in the
linux-2.6 repo, as measured by:
echo 0000 | git-upload-pack . >/dev/null
best-of-five, warm cache, objects and refs fully packed:
[before] [after]
real 0m0.026s real 0m0.013s
user 0m0.024s user 0m0.008s
sys 0m0.000s sys 0m0.000s
Those numbers are irrelevantly small compared to an actual
fetch. Here's a larger repo (400K refs, of which 12K are
unique, and of which only 107 are unique annotated tags):
[before] [after]
real 0m0.704s real 0m0.596s
user 0m0.600s user 0m0.496s
sys 0m0.096s sys 0m0.092s
This shows only a 15% speedup (mostly because it has fewer
actual tags to parse), but a larger absolute value (100ms,
which isn't a lot compared to a real fetch, but this
advertisement happens on every fetch, even if the client is
just finding out they are completely up to date).
In truly pathological cases, where you have a large number
of unique annotated tags, it can make an even bigger
difference. Here are the numbers for a linux-2.6 repository
that has had every seventh commit tagged (so about 50K
tags):
[before] [after]
real 0m0.443s real 0m0.097s
user 0m0.416s user 0m0.080s

The point of peel_ref is to dereference tags; if the base
object is not a tag, then we can return early without even
loading the object into memory.
This patch accomplishes that by checking sha1_object_info
for the type. For a packed object, we can get away with just
looking in the pack index. For a loose object, we only need
to inflate the first couple of header bytes.
This is a bit of a gamble; if we do find a tag object, then
we will end up loading the content anyway, and the extra
lookup will have been wasteful. However, if it is not a tag
object, then we save loading the object entirely. Depending
on the ratio of non-tags to tags in the input, this can be a
minor win or minor loss.
However, it does give us one potential major win: if a ref
points to a large blob (e.g., via an unannotated tag), then
we can avoid looking at it entirely.

The idea of the peel_ref function is to dereference tag
objects recursively until we hit a non-tag, and return the
sha1. Conceptually, it should return 0 if it is successful
(and fill in the sha1), or -1 if there was nothing to peel.
However, the current behavior is much more confusing. For a
regular loose ref, the behavior is as described above. But
there is an optimization to reuse the peeled-ref value for a
ref that came from a packed-refs file. If we have such a
ref, we return its peeled value, even if that peeled value
is null (indicating that we know the ref definitely does
_not_ peel).
It might seem like such information is useful to the caller,
who would then know not to bother loading and trying to peel
the object. Except that they should not bother loading and
trying to peel the object _anyway_, because that fallback is
already handled by peel_ref. In other words, the whole point
of calling this function is that it handles those details
internally, and you either get a sha1, or you know that it
is not peel-able.
This patch catches the null sha1 case internally and
converts it into a -1 return value (i.e., there is nothing
to peel). This simplifies callers, which do not need to
bother checking themselves.
Two callers are worth noting:
- in pack-objects, a comment indicates that there is a
difference between non-peelable tags and unannotated
tags. But that is not the case (before or after this
patch). Whether you get a null sha1 has to do with
internal details of how peel_ref operated.
- in show-ref, if peel_ref returns a failure, the caller
tries to decide whether to try peeling manually based on
whether the REF_ISPACKED flag is set. But this doesn't
make any sense. If the flag is set, that does not
necessarily mean the ref came from a packed-refs file
with the "peeled" extension. But it doesn't matter,
because even if it didn't, there's no point in trying to
peel it ourselves, as peel_ref would already have done
so. In other words, the fallback peeling is guaranteed
to fail.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
When we are asked to peel a ref to a sha1, we internally call
deref_tag, which will recursively parse each tagged object
until we reach a non-tag. This has the benefit that we will
verify our ability to load and parse the pointed-to object.
However, there is a performance downside: we may not need to
load that object at all (e.g., if we are listing peeled
simply listing peeled refs), or it may be a large object
that should follow a streaming code path (e.g., an annotated
tag of a large blob).
It makes more sense for peel_ref to choose the fast thing
rather than performing the extra check, for two reasons:
1. We will already sometimes short-circuit the tag parsing
in favor of a peeled entry from a packed-refs file. So
we are already favoring speed in some cases, and it is
not wise for a caller to rely on peel_ref to detect
corruption.
2. We already silently ignore much larger corruptions,
like a ref that points to a non-existent object, or a
tag object that exists but is corrupted.
2. peel_ref is not the right place to check for such a
database corruption. It is returning only the sha1
anyway, not the actual object. Any callers which use
that sha1 to load an object will soon discover the
corruption anyway, so we are really just pushing back
the discovery to later in the program.

paint_down_to_common(): parse commit before relying on its timestamp
When refactoring the merge-base computation to reduce the pairwise
O(n*(n-1)) traversals to parallel O(n) traversals, the code forgot
that timestamp based heuristics needs each commit to have been
parsed. This caused an empty "git pull" to spend cycles, traversing
the history all the way down to 0 (because an unparsed commit object
has 0 timestamp, and any other commit object with positive timestamp
will be processed for its parents, all getting parsed), only to come
up with a merge message to be used.
Teach the commands from the "log" family the "--grep-reflog" option
to limit output by string that appears in the reflog entry when the
"--walk-reflogs" option is in effect.

log --grep-reflog: reject the option without -g

t1450: the order the objects are checked is undefined
When a tag T points at an object X that is of a type that is
different from what the tag records as, fsck should report it as an
error.
However, depending on the order X and T are checked individually,
the actual error message can be different. If X is checked first,
fsck remembers X's type and then when it checks T, it notices that T
records X as a wrong type (i.e. the complaint is about a broken tag
T). If T is checked first, on the other hand, fsck remembers that we
need to verify X is of the type tag records, and when it later
checks X, it notices that X is of a wrong type (i.e. the complaint
is about a broken object X).
The important thing is that fsck notices such an error and diagnoses
the issue on object X, but the test was expecting that we happen to
check objects in the order to make us detect issues with tag T, not
with object X. Remove this unwarranted assumption.

The 'a', 'i' and 'c' commands take a literal text to be added
followed by backslash, but then in the source we cannot indent
the literal text which makes it ugly.
We need to also remember to double the backslash inside double
quotes.
Avoid these issues altogether by having an extra line in a template
file and generate test vectors by deleting the line or replacing the
line and not using the 'a' command.
The actual external command to run for mergetool backend can be
specified with difftool/mergetool.$name.cmd configuration

Remove the hard coded length limit on variable names in config files
Previously while reading the variable names in config files, there
was a 256 character limit with at most 128 of those characters being
used by the section header portion of the variable name. This
limitation was only enforced while reading the config files. It was
possible to write a config file that was not subsequently readable.
Instead of enforcing this limitation for both reading and writing,
remove it entirely by changing the var member of the config_file
struct to a strbuf instead of a fixed length buffer. Update all of
the parsing functions in config.c to use the strbuf instead of the
static buffer.
The parsing functions that returned the base length of the variable
name now return simply 0 for success and -1 for failure. The base
length information is obtained through the strbuf's len member.
We now send the buf member of the strbuf to external callback
functions to preserve the external api. None of the external
callers rely on the old size limitation for sizing their own buffers
so removing the limit should have no externally visible effect.

diff: diff.context configuration gives default to -U
Introduce a configuration variable diff.context that tells
Porcelain commands to use a non-default number of context
lines instead of 3 (the default). With this variable, users
do not have to keep repeating "git log -U8" from the command
line; instead, it becomes sufficient to say "git config
diff.context 8" just once.

mailinfo: don't require "text" mime type for attachments
Currently "git am" does insane things if the mbox it is given contains
attachments with a MIME type that aren't "text/*".
In particular, it will still decode them, and pass them "one line at a
time" to the mail body filter, but because it has determined that they
aren't text (without actually looking at the contents, just at the mime
type) the "line" will be the encoding line (eg 'base64') rather than a
line of *content*.
Which then will cause the text filtering to fail, because we won't
correctly notice when the attachment text switches from the commit message
to the actual patch. Resulting in a patch failure, even if patch may be a
perfectly well-formed attachment, it's just that the message type may be
(for example) "application/octet-stream" instead of "text/plain".
Just remove all the bogus games with the message_type. The only difference
that code creates is how the data is passed to the filter function
(chunked per-pred-code line or per post-decode line), and that difference
is *wrong*, since chunking things per pre-decode line can never be a
sensible operation, and cannot possibly matter for binary data anyway.
This code goes all the way back to March of 2007, in commit 87ab79923463
("builtin-mailinfo.c infrastrcture changes"), and apparently Don used to
pass random mbox contents to git. However, the pre-decode vs post-decode
logic really shouldn't matter even for that case, and more importantly, "I
fed git am crap" is not a valid reason to break *real* patch attachments.
If somebody really cares, and determines that some attachment is binary
data (by looking at the data, not the MIME-type), the whole attachment
should be dismissed, rather than fed in random-sized chunks to
"handle_filter()".

submodule add: Fail when .git/modules/<name> already exists unless forced
When adding a new submodule it can happen that .git/modules/<name> already
contains a submodule repo, e.g. when a submodule is removed from the work
tree and another submodule is added at the same path. But then the work
tree of the submodule will be populated using the existing repository and
not the one the user provided, which results in an incorrect work tree. On
the other hand the user might reactivate a submodule removed earlier, then
reusing that .git directory is the Right Thing to do.
As git can't decide what is the case, error out and tell the user she
should use either use a different name for the submodule with the "--name"
option or can reuse the .git directory for the newly added submodule by
providing the --force option (which only makes sense when the upstream
matches, so the error message lists all remotes of .git/modules/<name>).
In one test in t7406 the --force option had to be added to "git submodule
add", as that test re-adds a formerly removed submodule.
