In msvc.h, there's a couple of stat related functions defined diffently
from mingw.h. When we remove these definitions, the only problem we get is
"warning C4005: '_stati64' : macro redefinition" for this line in mingw.h:
#define _stati64(x,y) mingw_stat(x,y)
The reason is that as of MSVCR80.dll (distributed with MSVC 2005), the
original _stati64 family of functions was renamed to _stat32i64, and the
former function names became macros (pointing to the appropriate function
based on the definition of _USE_32BIT_TIME_T).
Defining _stati64 works on MinGW because MinGW by default compiles against
the MSVCRT.DLL that is part of Windows (i.e. _stati64 is a function rather
than a macro).
Note: MinGW *can* compile for newer MSVC runtime versions, and MSVC
apparently can also compile for the Windows MSVCRT.DLL via the DDK (see
http://www.syndicateofideas.com/posts/fighting-the-msvcrt-dll-hell ).
Remove the stat definitions from msvc.h, as they are not compiler related.
In mingw.h, determine the runtime version in use from the definitions of
_stati64 and _USE_32BIT_TIME_T, and define stat() accordingly.
This also fixes that stat() in MSVC builds still resolves to mingw_lstat()
instead of mingw_stat().

The machinery is more or less ready. The "--force" option is again

The logic to choose the default implemented here is fragile

Pass a list of open bzrlib.transport.Transport objects to each bzrlib
function that might create a transport. This enables bzrlib to reuse
existing transports when possible, avoiding multiple concurrent
connections to the same remote server.
If the remote server is accessed via ssh, this fixes a couple of
problems:
* If the user does not have keys loaded into an ssh agent, the user
may be prompted for a password multiple times.
* If the user is using OpenSSH and the ControlMaster setting is set
to auto, git-remote-bzr might hang. This is because bzrlib closes
the multiple ssh sessions in an undefined order and might try to
close the master ssh session before the other sessions. The
master ssh process will not exit until the other sessions have
exited, causing a deadlock. (The ssh sessions are closed in an
undefined order because bzrlib relies on the Python garbage
collector to trigger ssh session termination.)

mailmap: handle mailmap blobs without trailing newlines
The read_mailmap_buf function reads each line of the mailmap
using strchrnul, like:
const char *end = strchrnul(buf, '\n');
unsigned long linelen = end - buf + 1;
But that's off-by-one when we actually hit the NUL byte; our
line does not have a terminator, and so is only "end - buf"
bytes long. As a result, when we subtract the linelen from
the total len, we end up with (unsigned long)-1 bytes left
in the buffer, and we start reading random junk from memory.
We could fix it with:
unsigned long linelen = end - buf + !!*end;
but let's take a step back for a moment. It's questionable
in the first place for a function that takes a buffer and
length to be using strchrnul. But it works because we only
have one caller (and are only likely to ever have this one),
which is handing us data from read_sha1_file. Which means
that it's always NUL-terminated.
Instead of tightening the assumptions to make the
buffer/length pair work for a caller that doesn't actually
exist, let's let loosen the assumptions to what the real
caller has: a modifiable, NUL-terminated string.
This makes the code simpler and shorter (because we don't
have to correlate strchrnul with the length calculation),
correct (because the code with the off-by-one just goes
away), and more efficient (we can drop the extra allocation
we needed to create NUL-terminated strings for each line,
and just terminate in place).

config: do not use C function names as struct members
According to C99, section 7.1.4:
Any function declared in a header may be additionally
implemented as a function-like macro defined in the
header.
Therefore calling our struct member function pointer "fgetc"
may run afoul of unwanted macro expansion when we call:
char c = cf->fgetc(cf);
This turned out to be a problem on uclibc, which defines
fgetc as a macro and causes compilation failure.
The standard suggests fixing this in a few ways:
1. Using extra parentheses to inhibit the function-like
macro expansion. E.g., "(cf->fgetc)(cf)". This is
undesirable as it's ugly, and each call site needs to
remember to use it (and on systems without the macro,
forgetting will compile just fine).
2. Using #undef (because a conforming implementation must
also be providing fgetc as a function). This is
undesirable because presumably the implementation was
using the macro for a performance benefit, and we are
dropping that optimization.
Instead, we can simply use non-colliding names.

fetch-pack: do not remove .git/shallow file when --depth is not specified
fetch_pack() can remove .git/shallow file when a shallow repository
becomes a full one again. This behavior is triggered incorrectly when
tags are also fetched because fetch_pack() will be called twice. At
the first fetch_pack() call:
- shallow_lock is set up
- alternate_shallow_file points to shallow_lock.filename, which is
"shallow.lock"
- commit_lock_file is called, which sets shallow_lock.filename to "".
alternate_shallow_file also becomes "" because it points to the
same memory.
At the second call, setup_alternate_shallow() is not called and
alternate_shallow_file remains "". It's mistaken as unshallow case and
.git/shallow is removed. The end result is a broken repository.
Fix this by always initializing alternate_shallow_file when
fetch_pack() is called. As an extra measure, check if args->depth > 0
before commit/rollback shallow file.

Checking out 2GB or more through an external filter (see test) fails
on Mac OS X 10.8.4 (12E55) for a 64-bit executable with:
error: read from external filter cat failed
error: cannot feed the input to external filter cat
error: cat died of signal 13
error: external filter cat failed 141
error: external filter cat failed
The reason is that read() immediately returns with EINVAL when asked
to read more than 2GB. According to POSIX [1], if the value of
nbyte passed to read() is greater than SSIZE_MAX, the result is
implementation-defined. The write function has the same restriction
[2]. Since OS X still supports running 32-bit executables, the
32-bit limit (SSIZE_MAX = INT_MAX = 2GB - 1) seems to be also
imposed on 64-bit executables under certain conditions. For write,
the problem has been addressed earlier [6c642a].
Address the problem for read() and write() differently, by limiting
size of IO chunks unconditionally on all platforms in xread() and
xwrite(). Large chunks only cause problems, like causing latencies
when killing the process, even if OS X was not buggy. Doing IO in
reasonably sized smaller chunks should have no negative impact on
performance.
The compat wrapper clipped_write() introduced earlier [6c642a] is
not needed anymore. It will be reverted in a separate commit. The
new test catches read and write problems.
Note that 'git add' exits with 0 even if it prints filtering errors
to stderr. The test, therefore, checks stderr. 'git add' should
probably be changed (sometime in another commit) to exit with
nonzero if filtering fails. The test could then be changed to use
test_must_fail.

bash prompt: test the prompt with newline in repository path
Newlines in the path to a git repository were not an issue for the
git-specific bash prompt before commit efaa0c1532 (bash prompt:
combine 'git rev-parse' executions in the main code path, 2013-06-17),
because the path returned by 'git rev-parse --git-dir' was directly
stored in a variable, and this variable was later always accessed
inside double quotes.
Newlines are not an issue after commit efaa0c1532 either, but it's
more subtle. Since efaa0c1532 we use the following single 'git
rev-parse' execution to query various info about the repository:
The results to these queries are separated by a newline character in
the output, e.g.:
/home/szeder/src/git/.git
false
false
true
A newline in the path to the git repository could potentially break
the parsing of these results and ultimately the bash prompt, unless
the parsing is done right. Commit efaa0c1532 got it right, as I
consciously started parsing 'git rev-parse's output from the end,
where each record is a single line containing either 'true' or 'false'
or, after e3e0b9378b (bash prompt: combine 'git rev-parse' for
detached head, 2013-06-24), the abbreviated commit object name, and
all what remains at the beginning is the path to the git repository,
no matter how many lines it is.
This subtlety really warrants its own test, especially since I didn't
explain it in the log message or in an in-code comment back then, so
add a test to excercise the prompt with newline characters in the path
to the repository. Guard this test with the FUNNYNAMES prerequisite,
because not all filesystems support newlines in filenames. Note that
'git rev-parse --git-dir' prints '.git' or '.' when at the top of the
worktree or the repository, respectively, and only prints the full
path to the repository when in a subdirectory, hence the need for
changing into a subdir in the test.

create_delta_index: simplify condition always evaluating to true
The code sequence ' (1u << i) < hsize && i < 31 ' is a multi step
process, whose first step requires that 'i' is already less that 31,
otherwise the result (1u << i) is undefined (and 'undef_val < hsize'
can therefore be assumed to be 'false'), and so the later test i < 31
can always be optimized away as dead code ('i' is already less than 31,
or the short circuit 'and' applies).
So we need to get rid of that code. One way would be to exchange the
order of the conditions, so the expression 'i < 31 && (1u << i) < hsize'
would remove that optimized unstable code already.
However when checking the previous lines in that function, we can deduce
that 'hsize' must always be smaller than (1u<<31), since 506049c7df2c6
(fix >4GiB source delta assertion failure), because 'entries' is
capped at an upper bound of 0xfffffffeU, so 'hsize' contains a maximum
value of 0x3fffffff, which is smaller than (1u<<31), so the value of
'i' will never be larger than 31 and we can remove that condition
entirely.

blame range early, the subsequent patch can more easily avoid adding
empty ranges at collection time.

Encourage new users to use 'log' instead. These days, these
commands are unified and just have different defaults.
'git log' only allowed you to view the log messages and no diffs
when it was added in early June 2005. It was only in early April
2006 that the command learned to take diff options. Because of
this, power users tended to use 'whatchanged' that already existed
since mid May 2005 and supported diff options.
core-tutorial: trim the section on Inspecting Changes
Back when the core tutorial was written, `log` and `whatchanged`
were scripted Porcelains. In the "Inspecting Changes" section that
talks about the plumbing commands in the diff family, it made sense
to use `log` and `whatchanged` as good examples of the use of these
plumbing commands, and because even these scripted Porcelains were
novelty (there wasn't the new end-user tutorial written), it made
some sense to illustrate uses of the `git log` (and `git
whatchanged`) scripted Porcelain commands.
But we no longer have scripted `log` and `whatchanged` to serve as
examples, and this document is not where the end users learn what
`git log` command is about. Stop at briefly mentioning the
possibility of combining rev-list with diff-tree to build your own
log, and leave the end-user documentation of `log` to the new
tutorial and the user manual.
Also resurrect the last version of `git-log`, `git-whatchanged`, and
`git-show` to serve as examples to contrib/examples/ directory.
While at it, remove 'whatchanged' from a list of sample commands
that are affected by GIT_FLUSH environment variable. This is not
meant to be an exhaustive list but as a list of typical ones, and an
old command that is kept primarily for backward compatibility does
not belong to it.

git-p4: Fix occasional truncation of symlink contents.
Symlink contents in p4 print sometimes have a trailing
new line character, but sometimes it doesn't. git-p4
should only remove the last character if that character
is '\n'.
