Documentation: fix missing text for rev-parse --verify
The caret (^) is used as a markup symbol in AsciiDoc. Due to the
inability of AsciiDoc to parse a line containing an unmatched caret, it
omitted the line from the output, resulting in the man page missing the
end of a sentence. Escape this caret so that the man page ends up with
the complete text.

use xmemdupz() to allocate copies of strings given by start and length
Use xmemdupz() to allocate the memory, copy the data and make sure to
NUL-terminate the result, all in one step. The resulting code is
shorter, doesn't contain the constants 1 and '\0', and avoids
duplicating function parameters.
For blame, the last copied byte (o->file.ptr[o->file.size]) is always
set to NUL by fake_working_tree_commit() or read_sha1_file(), so no
information is lost by the conversion to using xmemdupz().

The final test in t7510 checks that "--format" placeholders
that look similar to GPG placeholders (but that we don't
actually understand) are passed through. That test was
placed in t7510, since the other GPG placeholder tests are
there. However, it does not have a GPG prerequisite, because
it is not actually checking any signed commits.
This causes the test to erroneously fail when gpg is not
installed on a system, however. Not because we need signed
commits, but because we need _any_ commit to run "git log".
If we don't have gpg installed, t7510 doesn't create any
commits at all.
We can fix this by moving the test into t6006. This is
arguably a better place anyway, because it is where we test
most of the other placeholders (we do not test GPG
placeholders there because of the infrastructure needed to
make signed commits).

We check multiple commits in a loop. Because we want to
break out of the loop if any single iteration fails, we use
a subshell/exit like:
(
for i in $stuff
do
do-something $i || exit 1
done
)
However, we are inconsistent in our loop body. Some commands
get their own "|| exit 1", and others try to chain to the
next command with "&&", like:
X &&
Y || exit 1
Z || exit 1
This is a little hard to read and follow, because X and Y
are treated differently for no good reason. But much worse,
the second loop follows a similar pattern and gets it wrong.
"Y" is expected to fail, so we use "&& exit 1", giving us:
X &&
Y && exit 1
Z || exit 1
That gets the test for X wrong (we do not exit unless both X
fails and Y unexpectedly succeeds, but we would want to exit
if _either_ is wrong). We can write this clearly and
correctly by consistently using "&&", followed by a single
"|| exit 1", and negating Y with "!" (as we would in a
normal &&-chain). Like:
X &&
! Y &&

reuse cached commit buffer when parsing signatures
When we call show_signature or show_mergetag, we read the
commit object fresh via read_sha1_file and reparse its
headers. However, in most cases we already have the object
data available, attached to the "struct commit". This is
partially laziness in dealing with the memory allocation
issues, but partially defensive programming, in that we
would always want to verify a clean version of the buffer
(not one that might have been munged by other users of the
commit).
However, we do not currently ever munge the commit buffer,
and not using the already-available buffer carries a fairly
big performance penalty when we are looking at a large
number of commits. Here are timings on linux.git:
[baseline, no signatures]
$ time git log >/dev/null
real 0m4.902s
user 0m4.784s
sys 0m0.120s
[before]
$ time git log --show-signature >/dev/null
real 0m14.735s
user 0m9.964s
sys 0m0.944s
[after]
$ time git log --show-signature >/dev/null
real 0m9.981s
user 0m5.260s
sys 0m0.936s
Note that our user CPU time drops almost in half, close to
the non-signature case, but we do still spend more
wall-clock and system time, presumably from dealing with
gpg.
An alternative to this is to note that most commits do not
have signatures (less than 1% in this repo), yet we pay the
re-parsing cost for every commit just to find out if it has
a mergetag or signature. If we checked that when parsing the
commit initially, we could avoid re-examining most commits
later on. Even if we did pursue that direction, however,
this would still speed up the cases where we _do_ have
signatures. So it's probably worth doing either way.

Most callsites which use the commit buffer try to use the
cached version attached to the commit, rather than
re-reading from disk. Unfortunately, that interface provides
only a pointer to the NUL-terminated buffer, with no
indication of the original length.
For the most part, this doesn't matter. People do not put
NULs in their commit messages, and the log code is happy to
treat it all as a NUL-terminated string. However, some code
paths do care. For example, when checking signatures, we
want to be very careful that we verify all the bytes to
avoid malicious trickery.
This patch just adds an optional "size" out-pointer to
get_commit_buffer and friends. The existing callers all pass
NULL (there did not seem to be any obvious sites where we
could avoid an immediate strlen() call, though perhaps with
some further refactoring we could).

This will make it easier to manage the buffer cache

Unfortunately it does not reduce the max memory size of
something like "rev-list", because rev-list uses
get_cached_commit_buffer() to decide not to show each

Like the callsites in the previous commit, logmsg_reencode
already falls back to read_sha1_file when necessary.
However, I split its conversion out into its own commit
because it's a bit more complex.
We return either:
1. The original commit->buffer
2. A newly allocated buffer from read_sha1_file
3. A reencoded buffer (based on either 1 or 2 above).
while trying to do as few extra reads/allocations as
possible. Callers currently free the result with
logmsg_free, but we can simplify this by pointing them
straight to unuse_commit_buffer. This is a slight layering
violation, in that we may be passing a buffer from (3).
However, since the end result is to free() anything except
(1), which is unlikely to change, and because this makes the
interface much simpler, it's a reasonable bending of the
rules.

For both of these sites, we already do the "fallback to
read_sha1_file" trick. But we can shorten the code by just
using get_commit_buffer.
Note that the error cases are slightly different when
read_sha1_file fails. get_commit_buffer will die() if the
object cannot be loaded, or is a non-commit.
For get_sha1_oneline, this will almost certainly never
happen, as we will have just called parse_object (and if it
does, it's probably worth complaining about).
For record_author_date, the new behavior is probably better;
we notify the user of the error instead of silently ignoring
it. And because it's used only for sorting by author-date,
somebody examining a corrupt repo can fallback to the
regular traversal order.

Some call sites check commit->buffer to see whether we have
a cached buffer, and if so, do some work with it. In the
long run we may want to switch these code paths to make
their decision on a different boolean flag (because checking
the cache may get a little more expensive in the future).
But for now, we can easily support them by converting the
calls to use get_cached_commit_buffer.

Many sites look at commit->buffer to get more detailed
information than what is in the parsed commit struct.
However, we sometimes drop commit->buffer to save memory,
in which case the caller would need to read the object
afresh. Some callers do this (leading to duplicated code),
and others do not (which opens the possibility of a segfault
if somebody else frees the buffer).
Let's provide a pair of helpers, "get" and "unuse", that let
callers easily get the buffer. They will use the cached
buffer when possible, and otherwise load from disk using
read_sha1_file.
Note that we also need to add a "get_cached" variant which
returns NULL when we do not have a cached buffer. At first
glance this seems to defeat the purpose of "get", which is
to always provide a return value. However, some log code
paths actually use the NULL-ness of commit->buffer as a
boolean flag to decide whether to try printing the
commit. At least for now, we want to continue supporting
that use.

This converts two lines into one at each caller. But more
importantly, it abstracts the concept of freeing the buffer,
which will make it easier to change later.
Note that we also need to provide a "detach" mechanism for a
tricky case in index-pack. We are passed a buffer for the
object generated by processing the incoming pack. If we are
not using --strict, we just calculate the sha1 on that
buffer and return, leaving the caller to free it. But if we
are using --strict, we actually attach that buffer to an
object, pass the object to the fsck functions, and then
detach the buffer from the object again (so that the caller
can free it as usual). In this case, we don't want to free
the buffer ourselves, but just make sure it is no longer
associated with the commit.
Note that we are making the assumption here that the
attach/detach process does not impact the buffer at all
(e.g., it is never reallocated or modified). That holds true
now, and we have no plans to change that. However, as we
abstract the commit_buffer code, this dependency becomes
less obvious. So when we detach, let's also make sure that
we get back the same buffer that we gave to the
commit_buffer code.

This simplifies the code, as logmsg_reencode handles the
reencoding for us in a single call. It also means we learn
logmsg_reencode's trick of pulling the buffer from disk when
commit->buffer is NULL (we currently just silently return!).
It is doubtful this matters in practice, though, as
sequencer operations would not generally turn off
save_commit_buffer.
Note that we may be fixing a bug here. The existing code
does:
if (same_encoding(to, from))
reencode_string(buf, to, from);
That probably should have been "!same_encoding".

determined that it is a free-able buffer.

In both blame and merge-recursive, we sometimes create a
"fake" commit struct for convenience (e.g., to represent the
HEAD state as if we would commit it). By allocating
ourselves rather than using alloc_commit_node, we do not
properly set the "index" field of the commit. This can
produce subtle bugs if we then use commit-slab on the
resulting commit, as we will share the "0" index with
another commit.
We can fix this by using alloc_commit_node() to allocate.
Note that we cannot free the result, as it is part of our
commit allocator. However, both cases were already leaking
the allocated commit anyway, so there's nothing to fix up.

It is not a good idea to strbuf_attach an arbitrary pointer
just because a function you are calling wants a strbuf.
Attaching implies a transfer of memory ownership; if anyone
were to modify or release the resulting strbuf, we would
free() the pointer, leading to possible problems:
1. Other users of the original pointer might access freed
memory.
2. The pointer might not be the start of a malloc'd
area, so calling free() on it in the first place would
be wrong.
In the two cases modified here, we are fortunate that nobody
touches the strbuf once it is attached, but it is an
accident waiting to happen. Since the previous commit,
commit_tree and friends take a pointer/buf pair, so we can
just do away with the strbufs entirely.

commit_tree: take a pointer/len pair rather than a const strbuf
While strbufs are pretty common throughout our code, it is
more flexible for functions to take a pointer/len pair than
a strbuf. It's easy to turn a strbuf into such a pair (by
dereferencing its members), but less easy to go the other
way (you can strbuf_attach, but that has implications about
memory ownership).
This patch teaches commit_tree (and its associated callers
and sub-functions) to take such a pair for the commit
message rather than a strbuf. This makes passing the buffer
around slightly more verbose, but means we can get rid of
some dangerous strbuf_attach calls in the next patch.

The config option to turn on bitmaps is read all the way
down in the plumbing of pack-objects. This makes it hard for
other options in the porcelain of repack to make decisions
based on the bitmap setting. For example,
repack.packKeptObjects tries to kick in by default only when
bitmaps are turned on. But it can't do so reliably because
it doesn't yet know whether we are using bitmaps.
This patch teaches repack to respect pack.writebitmaps. It
means we pass a redundant command-line flag to pack-objects,
but that's OK; it shouldn't affect the outcome.

repack: do not accidentally pack kept objects by default
Commit ee34a2b (repack: add `repack.packKeptObjects` config
var, 2014-03-03) added a flag which could duplicate kept
objects, but did not mean to turn it on by default. Instead,
the option is tied by default to the decision to write
bitmaps, like:
if (pack_kept_objects < 0)
pack_kept_objects = write_bitmap;
after which we expect pack_kept_objects to be a boolean 0 or
1. However, that assignment neglects that write_bitmap is
_also_ a tri-state with "-1" as the default, and with
neither option given, we accidentally turn the option on.
This patch is the minimal fix to restore the desired
behavior for the default state. Further patches will fix the
more complicated cases.
Note the update to t7700. It failed to turn on bitmaps,
meaning we were actually confirming the wrong behavior!

However, the latter does not understand the ref-exclusion command
line option, even though other options understood by "log", such as
"--all" and "--no-merges", are understood.
This was because e7b432c5 (revision: introduce --exclude=<glob> to
tame wildcards, 2013-08-30) did not wire the new option fully to the
machinery. A new option understood by handle_revision_pseudo_opt()
must be told to handle_revision_opt() as well.
update-index: fix segfault with missing --cacheinfo argument
Running "git update-index --cacheinfo" without any further
arguments results in a segfault rather than an error
message. Commit ec160ae (update-index: teach --cacheinfo a
new syntax "mode,sha1,path", 2014-03-23) added code to
examine the format of the argument, but forgot to handle the
NULL case.
Returning an error from the parser is enough, since we then
treat it as an old-style "--cacheinfo <mode> <sha1> <path>",
and complain that we have less than 3 arguments to read.

dir.c:trim_trailing_spaces(): fix for " \ " sequence
Discard the unnecessary 'nr_spaces' variable, remove 'strlen()' and
improve the 'if' structure. Switch to pointers instead of integers
to control the loop.
Slightly more rare occurrences of 'text \ ' with a backslash
in between spaces are handled correctly. Namely, the code in 7e2e4b37 (dir: ignore trailing spaces in exclude patterns, 2014-02-09)
does not reset 'last_space' when a backslash is encountered and the above
line stays intact as a result.
Add a test at the end of t/t0008-ignores.sh to exhibit this behavior.

pack-objects: use free()+xcalloc() instead of xrealloc()+memset()
Whenever the hash table becomes too small then its size is increased,
the original part (and the added space) is zerod out using memset(),
and the table is rebuilt from scratch.
Simplify this proceess by returning the old memory using free() and
allocating the new buffer using xcalloc(), which already clears the
buffer for us. That way we avoid copying the old hash table contents
needlessly inside xrealloc().
While at it, use the first array member with sizeof instead of a
specific type. The old code used uint32_t and int, while index is
actually an array of int32_t. Their sizes are the same basically
everywhere, so it's not actually a problem, but the new code is
cleaner and doesn't have to be touched should the type be changed.

When looking for the index of a specfic string in that array, simply
use strcmp() instead of memcmp(). This avoids running over the end of
the string (e.g. with memcmp("Subject", "From", 7)) and gets rid of
magic string length constants.

fix brown paper bag breakage in t5150-request-pull.sh
The recent addition to the test case 'pull request format' interrupted
the single-quoted text, effectively adding a third argument to the
test_expect_success command. Since we do not have a prerequisite named
"pull request format", the test is skipped, no matter what. Additionally,
the file name argument to the grep command is missing. Fix both issues.

sideband.c: do not use ANSI control sequence on non-terminal
Diagnostic messages received on the sideband #2 from the server side
are sent to the standard error with ANSI terminal control sequence
"\033[K" that erases to the end of line appended at the end of each
line.
However, some programs (e.g. GitExtensions for Windows) read and
interpret and/or show the message without understanding the terminal
control sequences, resulting them to be shown to their end users.
To help these programs, squelch the control sequence when the
standard error stream is not being sent to a tty.
NOTE: I considered to cover the case that a pager has already been
started. But decided that is probably not worth worrying about here,
though, as we shouldn't be using a pager for commands that do network
communications (and if we do, omitting the magic line-clearing signal
is probably a sane thing to do).

As 0232852b, but for the push tests instead: this avoids a start_httpd
in the middle of the file, which fails under GIT_TEST_HTTPD=false.
Note that we have to munge the test in a few ways while
moving it:
1. We drop the `test -z "$GIT_TEST_HTTPD"` check; this is
too simplistic since 83d842d, and we should let
lib-httpd.sh handle it.
2. We have to port over some of the old setup from t5538.
3. In the final test, we no longer expect the extra commit
"1" built on top of "4". This was a side effect from an
earlier test in t5538 which was not ported over.

These were originally removed by 0232852 (t5537: move
http tests out to t5539, 2014-02-13). However, they were
accidentally re-added in 1ddb4d7 (Merge branch
'nd/upload-pack-shallow', 2014-03-21).
This looks like an error in manual conflict resolution.
Here's what happened:
1. v1.9.0 shipped with the http tests in t5537.
2. We realized that this caused problems, and built 0232852 on top to move the tests to their own file.
This fix made it into v1.9.1.
3. We later had another fix in nd/upload-pack-shallow that
also touched t5537. It was built directly on v1.9.0.
When we merged nd/upload-pack-shallow to master, we got a
conflict; it was built on a version with the http tests, but
we had since removed them. The correct resolution was to
drop the http tests and keep the new ones, but instead we
kept everything.
