positive response, which is cumbersome to turn off when you need to

fsck: complain about NTFS ".git" aliases in trees

Now that the index can block pathnames that can be mistaken
to mean ".git" on NTFS and FAT32, it would be helpful for
fsck to notice such problematic paths. This lets servers
which use receive.fsckObjects block them before the damage
spreads.

Note that the fsck check is always on, even for systems
without core.protectNTFS set. This is technically more
restrictive than we need to be, as a set of users on ext4
could happily use these odd filenames without caring about
NTFS.

However, on balance, it's helpful for all servers to block
these (because the paths can be used for mischief, and
servers which bother to fsck would want to stop the spread
whether they are on NTFS themselves or not), and hardly
anybody will be affected (because the blocked names are
variants of .git or git~1, meaning mischief is almost
certainly what the tree author had in mind).

Ideally these would be controlled by a separate
"fsck.protectNTFS" flag. However, it would be much nicer to
be able to enable/disable _any_ fsck flag individually, and
any scheme we choose should match such a system. Given the
likelihood of anybody using such a path in practice, it is
not unreasonable to wait until such a system materializes.

read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variants

The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we
would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the
repository directory. But this means we need to respect the
filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior
commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS
and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path().

We make this check optional for two reasons:

1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is
unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32.
In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as
the restricted names are rather obscure and almost
certainly would never come up in practice.

2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we
insert into the index.

This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config
option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows,
we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on
other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows,
though.

path: add is_ntfs_dotgit() helperJohannes Schindelin Tue, 16 Dec 2014 22:31:03 +0000 (23:31 +0100)

path: add is_ntfs_dotgit() helper

We do not allow paths with a ".git" component to be added to
the index, as that would mean repository contents could
overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this
path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some
filesystems.

On NTFS (and FAT32), there exist so-called "short names" for
backwards-compatibility: 8.3 compliant names that refer to the same files
as their long names. As ".git" is not an 8.3 compliant name, a short name
is generated automatically, typically "git~1".

Depending on the Windows version, any combination of trailing spaces and
periods are ignored, too, so that both "git~1." and ".git." still refer
to the Git directory. The reason is that 8.3 stores file names shorter
than 8 characters with trailing spaces. So literally, it does not matter
for the short name whether it is padded with spaces or whether it is
shorter than 8 characters, it is considered to be the exact same.

The period is the separator between file name and file extension, and
again, an empty extension consists just of spaces in 8.3 format. So
technically, we would need only take care of the equivalent of this
regex:
(\.git {0,4}|git~1 {0,3})\. {0,3}

However, there are indications that at least some Windows versions might
be more lenient and accept arbitrary combinations of trailing spaces and
periods and strip them out. So we're playing it real safe here. Besides,
there can be little doubt about the intention behind using file names
matching even the more lenient pattern specified above, therefore we
should be fine with disallowing such patterns.

Extra care is taken to catch names such as '.\\.git\\booh' because the
backslash is marked as a directory separator only on Windows, and we want
to use this new helper function also in fsck on other platforms.

A big thank you goes to Ed Thomson and an unnamed Microsoft engineer for
the detailed analysis performed to come up with the corresponding fixes
for libgit2.

This commit adds a function to detect whether a given file name can refer
to the Git directory by mistake.

fsck: complain about HFS+ ".git" aliases in trees

Now that the index can block pathnames that case-fold to

utf8: add is_hfs_dotgit() helper

We do not allow paths with a ".git" component to be added to
the index, as that would mean repository contents could
overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this
path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some
filesystems.

HFS+'s case-folding does more than just fold uppercase into
lowercase (which we already handle with strcasecmp). It may
also skip past certain "ignored" Unicode code points, so
that (for example) ".gi\u200ct" is mapped ot ".git".

The full list of folds can be found in the tables at:

https://www.opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-1504.15.3/bsd/hfs/hfscommon/Unicode/UCStringCompareData.h

Implementing a full "is this path the same as that path"
comparison would require us importing the whole set of
tables. However, what we want to do is much simpler: we
only care about checking ".git". We know that 'G' is the
only thing that folds to 'g', and so on, so we really only
need to deal with the set of ignored code points, which is
much smaller.

We check that fsck notices and complains about confusing

1. We check only for these paths as file entries, not as
intermediate paths (so ".git" and not ".git/foo").

2. We check "." and ".." together, so it is possible that
we notice only one and not the other.

3. We repeat a lot of boilerplate.

Let's use some loops to be more thorough in our testing, and

component, because checking out the result to the working
tree may causes confusion for subsequent git commands.
However, on case-insensitive file systems, ".Git" or ".GIT"
is the same. We should catch and prevent those, too.

Note that technically we could allow this for repos on
case-sensitive filesystems. But there's not much point. It's
unlikely that anybody cares, and it creates a repository
that is unexpectedly non-portable to other systems.

compat: convert modes to use portable file type values

This adds simple wrapper functions around calls to stat(), fstat(),
and lstat() that translate the operating system's native file type
bits to those used by most operating systems. It also rewrites the
S_IF* macros to the common values, so all file type processing is
performed using the translated modes. This makes projects portable
across operating systems that use different file type definitions.

Only the file type bits may be affected by these compatibility
functions; the file permission bits are assumed to be 07777 and are
passed through unchanged.

prompt: respect GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT to disable terminal... Jeff King Thu, 4 Dec 2014 03:52:29 +0000 (22:52 -0500)

prompt: respect GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT to disable terminal prompts

If you run git as part of an automated system, you might
prefer git to die rather than try to issue a prompt on the
terminal (because there would be nobody to see it and
respond, and the process would hang forever).

This usually works out of the box because getpass() (and our
more featureful replacements) will fail when there is no
tty, but this does not cover all cases. For example, a batch
system run via ssh might have a tty, even when the user does
not expect it.

Let's provide an environment variable the user can set to
avoid even trying to touch the tty at all.

credential: let helpers tell us to quitJeff King Thu, 4 Dec 2014 03:46:48 +0000 (22:46 -0500)

credential: let helpers tell us to quit

When we are trying to fill a credential, we loop over the
set of defined credential-helpers, then fall back to running
askpass, and then finally prompt on the terminal. Helpers
which cannot find a credential are free to tell us nothing,
but they cannot currently ask us to stop prompting.

This patch lets them provide a "quit" attribute, which asks
us to stop the process entirely (avoiding running more
helpers, as well as the askpass/terminal prompt).

This has a few possible uses:

1. A helper which prompts the user itself (e.g., in a
dialog) can provide a "cancel" button to the user to
stop further prompts.

2. Some helpers may know that prompting cannot possibly
work. For example, if their role is to broker a ticket
from an external auth system and that auth system
cannot be contacted, there is no point in continuing
(we need a ticket to authenticate, and the user cannot
provide one by typing it in).

push: truly use "simple" as default, not "upstream"

The plan for the push.default transition had all along been
to use the "simple" method rather than "upstream" as a
default if the user did not specify their own push.default
value. Commit 11037ee (push: switch default from "matching"
to "simple", 2013-01-04) tried to implement that by moving
PUSH_DEFAULT_UNSPECIFIED in our switch statement to
fall-through to the PUSH_DEFAULT_SIMPLE case.

When the commit that became 11037ee was originally written,
that would have been enough. We would fall through to
calling setup_push_upstream() with the "simple" parameter
set to 1. However, it was delayed for a while until we were
ready to make the transition in Git 2.0.

And in the meantime, commit ed2b182 (push: change `simple`
to accommodate triangular workflows, 2013-06-19) threw a
monkey wrench into the works. That commit drops the "simple"
parameter to setup_push_upstream, and instead checks whether
the global "push_default" is PUSH_DEFAULT_SIMPLE. This is
right when the user has explicitly configured push.default
to simple, but wrong when we are a fall-through for the
"unspecified" case.

We never noticed because our push.default tests do not cover
the case of the variable being totally unset; they only
check the "simple" behavior itself.

t5516: more tests for receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead

The previous one tests only the case where a path to be updated by
the push-to-deploy has an incompatible change in the target's
working tree that has already been added to the index, but the
feature itself wants to require the working tree to be a lot cleaner
than what is tested. Add a handful more tests to protect the
feature from future changes that mistakenly (from the viewpoint of
the inventor of the feature) loosens the cleanliness requirement,
namely:

- A change only to the working tree but not to the index is still a
change to be protected;

- An untracked file in the working tree that would be overwritten
by a push-to-deploy needs to be protected;

- A change that happens to make a file identical to what is being
pushed is still a change to be protected (i.e. the feature's
cleanliness requirement is more strict than that of checkout).

Also, test that a stat-only change to the working tree is not a
reason to reject a push-to-deploy.

The common workaround – pushing into a temporary branch and then merging
on the other machine – is no longer necessary with this patch.

system_path(): always return free'able memory to the caller

The function sometimes returns a newly allocated string and
sometimes returns a borrowed string, the latter of which the callers
must not free(). The existing callers all assume that the return
value belongs to the callee and most of them copy it with strdup()
when they want to keep it around. They end up leaking the returned
copy when the callee returned a new string because they cannot tell
if they should free it.

Change the contract between the callers and system_path() to make
the returned string owned by the callers; they are responsible for
freeing it when done, but they do not have to make their own copy to
store it away.

Adjust the callers to make sure they do not leak the returned string
once they are done, but do not bother freeing it just before dying,
exiting or exec'ing other program to avoid unnecessary churn.

git-send-email: add --transfer-encoding optionPaolo Bonzini Tue, 25 Nov 2014 14:00:27 +0000 (15:00 +0100)

git-send-email: add --transfer-encoding option

The thread at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/257392
details problems when applying patches with "git am" in a repository with
CRLF line endings. In the example in the thread, the repository originated
from "git-svn" so it is not possible to use core.eol and friends on it.

Right now, the best option is to use "git am --keep-cr". However, when
a patch create new files, the patch application process will reject the
new file because it finds a "/dev/null\r" string instead of "/dev/null".

The problem is that SMTP transport is CRLF-unsafe. Sending a patch by
email is the same as passing it through "dos2unix | unix2dos". The newly
introduced CRLFs are normally transparent because git-am strips them. The
keepcr=true setting preserves them, but it is mostly working by chance
and it would be very problematic to have a "git am" workflow in a
repository with mixed LF and CRLF line endings.

The MIME solution to this is the quoted-printable transfer enconding.
This is not something that we want to enable by default, since it makes
received emails horrible to look at. However, it is a very good match
for projects that store CRLF line endings in the repository.

The only disadvantage of quoted-printable is that quoted-printable
patches fail to apply if the maintainer uses "git am --keep-cr". This
is because the decoded patch will have two carriage returns at the end
of the line. Therefore, add support for base64 transfer encoding too,
which makes received emails downright impossible to look at outside
a MUA, but really just works.

The patch covers all bases, including users that still live in the late
80s, by also providing a 7bit content transfer encoding that refuses
to send emails with non-ASCII character in them. And finally, "8bit"
will add a Content-Transfer-Encoding header but otherwise do nothing.

git-send-email: delay creation of MIME headers

After the next patch, git-send-email will sometimes modify
existing Content-Transfer-Encoding headers. Delay the addition
of the header to @xh until just before sending. Do the same
for MIME-Version, to avoid adding it twice.

repack_without_refs(): make the refnames argument a string_list

Most of the callers have string_lists available already, whereas two
of them had to read data out of a string_list into an array of strings
just to call this function. So change repack_without_refs() to take
the list of refnames to omit as a string_list, and change the callers
accordingly.

prune_remote(): sort delete_refs_list references en masse

Inserting items into a list in sorted order is O(N^2) whereas
appending them unsorted and then sorting the list all at once is
O(N lg N).

string_list_insert() also removes duplicates, and this change loses
that functionality. But the strings in this list, which ultimately
come from a for_each_ref() iteration, cannot contain duplicates.

Also free them together at the end of the function.

In a moment, the array version will become redundant. Managing them
