git notes merge: Add another auto-resolving strategy: "cat_sort_uniq"
This new strategy is similar to "concatenate", but in addition to
concatenating the two note candidates, this strategy sorts the resulting
lines, and removes duplicate lines from the result. This is equivalent to
applying the "cat | sort | uniq" shell pipeline to the two note candidates.
This strategy is useful if the notes follow a line-based format where one
wants to avoid duplicate lines in the merge result.
Note that if either of the note candidates contain duplicate lines _prior_
to the merge, these will also be removed by this merge strategy.
The patch also contains tests and documentation for the new strategy.

git notes merge: --commit should fail if underlying notes ref has moved
When manually resolving a notes merge, if the merging ref has moved since
the merge started, we should fail to complete the merge, and alert the user
to what's going on.
This situation may arise if you start a 'git notes merge' which results in
conflicts, and you then update the current notes ref (using for example
'git notes add/copy/amend/edit/remove/prune', 'git update-ref', etc.),
before you get around to resolving the notes conflicts and calling
'git notes merge --commit'.
We detect this situation by comparing the first parent of the partial merge
commit (which was created when the merge started) to the current value of the
merging notes ref (pointed to by the .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF symref).
If we don't fail in this situation, the notes merge commit would overwrite
the updated notes ref, thus losing the changes that happened in the meantime.
The patch includes a testcase verifying that we fail correctly in this
situation.

git notes merge: Manual conflict resolution, part 2/2
When the notes merge conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE have been
resolved, we need to record a new notes commit on the appropriate notes
ref with the resolved notes.
This patch implements 'git notes merge --commit' which the user should
run after resolving conflicts in the notes merge worktree. This command
finalizes the notes merge by recombining the partial notes tree from
part 1 with the now-resolved conflicts in the notes merge worktree in a
merge commit, and updating the appropriate ref to this merge commit.
In order to correctly finalize the merge, we need to keep track of three
things:
- The partial merge result from part 1, containing the auto-merged notes.
This is now stored into a ref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_PARTIAL.
- The unmerged notes. These are already stored in
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE, thanks to part 1.
- The notes ref to be updated by the finalized merge result. This is now
stored in a symref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF.
In addition to "git notes merge --commit", which uses the above details
to create the finalized notes merge commit, this patch also implements
"git notes merge --reset", which aborts the ongoing notes merge by simply
removing the files/directory described above.
FTR, "git notes merge --commit" reuses "git notes merge --reset" to remove
the information described above (.git/NOTES_MERGE_*) after the notes merge
have been successfully finalized.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the two new options.
This patch has been improved by the following contributions:
- Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason: Fix nonsense sentence in --commit description

git notes merge: Manual conflict resolution, part 1/2
Conflicts (that are to be resolved manually) are written into a special-
purpose working tree, located at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. Within this
directory, conflicting notes entries are stored (with conflict markers
produced by ll_merge()) using the SHA1 of the annotated object. The
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory will only contain the _conflicting_
note entries. The non-conflicting note entries (aka. the partial merge
result) are stored in 'local_tree', and the SHA1 of the resulting commit
is written to 'result_sha1'. The return value from notes_merge() is -1.
The user is told to edit the files within the .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE
directory in order to resolve the conflicts.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the correct setup
of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE.
The next part will recombine the partial notes merge result with the
resolved conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE to produce the complete
merge result.

The new -s/--strategy command-line option to 'git notes merge' allow the user
to choose how notes merge conflicts should be resolved. There are four valid
strategies to choose from:
1. "manual" (the default): This will let the user manually resolve conflicts.
This option currently fails with an error message. It will be implemented
properly in future patches.
2. "ours": This automatically chooses the local version of a conflict, and
discards the remote version.
3. "theirs": This automatically chooses the remote version of a conflict, and
discards the local version.
4. "union": This automatically resolves the conflict by appending the remote
version to the local version.
The strategies are implemented using the combine_notes_* functions from the
notes.h API.
The patch also includes testcases verifying the correct implementation of
these strategies.

This continuation of the 'git notes merge' implementation teaches notes-merge
to properly do real merges between notes trees: Two diffs are performed, one
from $base to $remote, and another from $base to $local. The paths in each
diff are normalized to SHA1 object names. The two diffs are then consolidated
into a single list of change pairs to be evaluated. Each change pair consist
of:
- The annotated object's SHA1
- The $base SHA1 (i.e. the common ancestor notes for this object)
- The $local SHA1 (i.e. the current notes for this object)
- The $remote SHA1 (i.e. the to-be-merged notes for this object)
From the pair ($base -> $local, $base -> $remote), we can determine the merge
result using regular 3-way rules. If conflicts are encountered in this
process, we fail loudly and exit (conflict handling to be added in a future
patch), If we can complete the merge without conflicts, the resulting
notes tree is committed, and the current notes ref updated.
The patch includes added testcases verifying that we can successfully do real
conflict-less merges.

notes.c: Use two newlines (instead of one) when concatenating notes
When using combine_notes_concatenate() to concatenate notes, it currently
ensures exactly one newline character between the given notes. However,
when using builtin/notes.c:create_note() to concatenate notes (e.g. by
'git notes append'), it adds a newline character to the trailing newline
of the preceding notes object, thus resulting in _two_ newlines (aka. a
blank line) separating contents of the two notes.
This patch brings combine_notes_concatenate() into consistency with
builtin/notes.c:create_note(), by ensuring exactly _two_ newline characters
between concatenated notes.
The patch also changes a few notes-related selftests accordingly.

notes.h/c: Propagate combine_notes_fn return value to add_note() and beyond

Instead, propagate this return value out to add_note(), and return it
from there to enable the caller to handle errors appropriately.
Existing add_note() callers are updated to die() upon failure, thus
preserving the current behaviour. The only exceptions are copy_note()
and notes_cache_put() where we are able to propagate the add_note()
return value instead.

We explicitly document "0" and "1" as synonyms for "false"
and "true" in boolean config options. However, we don't
actually handle those values in git_config_maybe_bool.
In most cases this works fine, as we call git_config_bool,
which in turn calls git_config_bool_or_int, which in turn
calls git_config_maybe_bool. Values of 0/1 are considered
"not bool", but their integer values end up being converted
to the corresponding boolean values.
However, the log.decorate code looks for maybe_bool
explicitly, so that it can fall back to the "short" and
"full" strings. It does not handle 0/1 at all, and considers
them invalid values.
We cannot simply add 0/1 support to git_config_maybe_bool.
That would confuse git_config_bool_or_int, which may want to
distinguish the integer values "0" and "1" from bools.

Avoid that by strdupping getenv("GIT_DIR") result like we did in 06f354

this also shows that other getenv usage inside git needs auditing...
(*) from man 3 getenv:
The implementation of getenv() is not required to be reentrant. The

other way to extract dtype information from index. It did not support
wildcard matching (for example, "a*/" pattern would fail to match).
The code was probably misread when commit 108da0d (git add: Add the

because DT_UNKNOWN happens to be zero (NULL) too.

Submodules: Add the "fetchRecurseSubmodules" config option
The new boolean "fetchRecurseSubmodules" config option controls the

should recurse into submodules and fetch new commits there too and can be
set separately for each submodule.
In the .gitmodules file "submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules" entries
are read before looking for them in .git/config. Thus settings found in
.git/config will override those from .gitmodules, thereby allowing the
user to ignore settings given by the remote side while also letting
upstream set reasonable defaults for those users who don't have special
needs.
This configuration can be overridden by the command line option

Until now you had to call "git submodule update" (without -N|--no-fetch
option) or something like "git submodule foreach git fetch" to fetch
new commits in populated submodules from their remote.
This could lead to "(commits not present)" messages in the output of
"git diff --submodule" (which is used by "git gui" and "gitk") after
fetching or pulling new commits in the superproject and is an obstacle for
implementing recursive checkout of submodules. Also "git submodule
update" cannot fetch changes when disconnected, so it was very easy to
forget to fetch the submodule changes before disconnecting only to
discover later that they are needed.
This patch adds the "--recurse-submodules" option to recursively fetch
each populated submodule from the url configured in the .git/config of the
submodule at the end of each "git fetch" or during "git pull" in the
superproject. The submodule paths are taken from the index.
The hidden option "--submodule-prefix" is added to "git fetch" to be able
to print out the full paths of nested submodules.

Documentation: point to related commands from gitignore
A frequently asked question on #git is how to stop tracking a file
that is mistakenly tracked by git. A frequently attempted strategy is
to add such files to .gitignore.
Thus one might imagine that the gitignore documentation could be a
good entry point for 'git rm' documentation. Add some
cross-references in this vein.
While at it, move a reference to update-index --assume-unchanged from

Remove pack file handling dependency from wrapper.o
As v1.7.0-rc0~43 (slim down "git show-index", 2010-01-21) explains,
use of xmalloc() brings in a dependency on zlib, the sha1 lib, and the
rest of git's object file access machinery via try_to_free_pack_memory.
That is overkill when xmalloc is just being used as a convenience
wrapper to exit when no memory is available.
So defer setting try_to_free_pack_memory as try_to_free_routine until
the first packfile is opened in add_packed_git().
After this change, a simple program using xmalloc() and no other
functions will not pull in any code from libgit.a aside from wrapper.o
and usage.o.

wrapper: give zlib wrappers their own translation unit
Programs using xmalloc() but not git_inflate() require -lz on the
linker command line because git_inflate() is in the same translation
unit as xmalloc().

git_mkstemp_mode and related functions do not require access to
specialized git machinery, unlike some other functions from
path.c (like set_shared_perm()). Move them to wrapper.c where
the wrapper xmkstemp_mode is defined.
This eliminates a dependency of wrapper.o on environment.o via
path.o. With typical linkers (e.g., gcc), that dependency makes
programs that use functions from wrapper.o and not environment.o
or path.o larger than they need to be.

The odb_mkstemp and odb_pack_keep functions open files under the
$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY directory. This requires access to the git
configuration which very simple programs do not need.
Move these functions to environment.o, closer to their dependencies.
This should make it easier for programs to link to wrapper.o without
linking to environment.o.

wrapper.o depends on sha1_file.o for a number of reasons. One is
release_pack_memory().
xmmap function calls mmap, discarding unused pack windows when
necessary to relieve memory pressure. Simple git programs using
wrapper.o as a friendly libc do not need this functionality.
So move xmmap to sha1_file.o, where release_pack_memory() is.

notes.h/c: Allow combine_notes functions to remove notes
Allow combine_notes functions to request that a note be removed, by setting
the resulting note SHA1 to null_sha1 (0000000...).
For consistency, also teach note_tree_insert() to skip insertion of an empty
note (a note with entry->val_sha1 equal to null_sha1) when there is no note
to combine it with.
In general, an empty note (null_sha1) is treated identically to no note at
all, but when adding an empty note where there already exists a non-empty
note, we allow the combine_notes function to potentially record a new/changed
note. Document this behaviour, and clearly specify how combine_notes functions
are expected to handle null_sha1 in input.
Before this patch, storing null_sha1s in the notes tree were silently allowed,
causing an invalid notes tree (referring to blobs with null_sha1) to be
produced by write_notes_tree().

We have always been creating rfc1991 signatures for users with "rfc1991"
in their gpg config but failed to recognize them (tag -l -n largenumber)

and verify those signatures also.

Currently, git expects "-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----" at the beginning of a
signature. But gpg uses "MESSAGE" instead of "SIGNATURE" when used with
the "rfc1991" option. This leads to git's failing to verify it's own
signed tags, among other problems.
Add tests for all code paths (tag -v, tag -l -n largenumber, tag -f
without -m) where signature detection matters.

apply: handle patches with funny filename and colon in timezone
Some patches have a timezone formatted like '-08:00' instead of
'-0800' in their ---/+++ lines (e.g. http://lwn.net/Articles/131729/).
Take this into account when searching for the start of the timezone
(which is the end of the filename).
This does not actually affect the outcome of patching unless (1) a
file being patched has a non-' ' whitespace character (e.g., tab) in
its filename, or (2) the patch is whitespace-damaged, so the tab
between filename and timestamp has been replaced with spaces.

The previous text was not exactly accurate; it is OK to
change space and minus lines, but only in certain ways.
This patch takes a whole new approach, which is to describe
the sorts of conceptual operations you might want to
perform. It also includes a healthy dose of warnings about
how things can go wrong.
Since the size of the text is getting quite long, it also
splits this out into an "editing patches" section. This
makes more sense with the current structure, anyway, which
already splits out the interactive mode description.

rebase: better rearranging of fixup!/squash! lines with --autosquash
The current behvaior of --autosquash can duplicate fixup!/squash! lines
if they match multiple commits, and it can also apply them to commits
that come after them in the todo list. Even more oddly, a commit that
looks like "fixup! fixup!" will match itself and be duplicated in the
todo list.
Change the todo list rearranging to mark all commits as used as soon
as they are emitted, and to avoid emitting a fixup/squash commit if the
commit has already been marked as used.

Git's diff machinery has supported a -s (silence diff output) option
as far back as v0.99~900 (Silent flag for show-diff, 2005-04-13), but
the option is only advertised in an odd corner of the git diff-tree
manual.
The main use is to retrieve basic metadata about a commit:
git show -s rev
Explain this in the 'git log' manual and provide an example in the
'git show' examples section. This is kind of a cop-out, since it
would be more useful to explain it in the 'git show' manual proper,
which says:
The command takes options applicable to the git
diff-tree command to control how the changes the
commit introduces are shown.
This manual page describes only the most frequently
used options.
Fixing that is a larger task for another day.

According to the documentation for git-status, in short-format mode,
paths with spaces or unprintable characters are quoted. However 28fba29 (Do not quote SP., 2005-10-17) removed the behavior that quotes
paths that have spaces but not unprintable characters. Unfortunately this
makes the output of `git status --porcelain` non-parseable in certain
(rather unusual) edge cases. In the interest of removing ambiguity when
parsing the output of `git status --porcelain`, restore the behavior of
quoting paths with spaces in git-status's short-format mode.

t9001: send-email interation with --in-reply-to and --chain-reply-to
1. When --in-reply-to gives $reply_to, the first one becomes a reply to
that message, with or without --chain-reply-to.
2. When --chain-reply-to is in effect, all the messages are strung
together to form a single chain. The first message may be in reply to
the $reply_to given by --in-reply-to command line option (see
previous), or the root of the discussion thread. The second one is a
response to the first one, and the third one is a response to the
second one, etc.
3. When --chain-reply-to is not in effect:
a. When --in-reply-to is used, too, the second and the subsequent ones
become replies to $reply_to. Together with the first rule, all
messages become replies to $reply_to given by --in-reply-to.
b. When --in-reply-to is not used, presumably the second and
subsequent ones become replies to the first one, which would be the
root.
The documentation is reasonably clear about the 1., 2. and 3a. above, I
think, even though I do not think 3b. is clearly specified.
The two tests added by this patch at least documents what happens between
these two options.
