compate/clipped-write.c: large write(2) fails on Mac OS X/XNU
Due to a bug in the Darwin kernel, write(2) calls have a maximum size
of INT_MAX bytes.
Introduce a new compat function, clipped_write(), that only writes
at most INT_MAX bytes and returns the number of bytes written, as
a substitute for write(2), and allow platforms that need this to
enable it from the build mechanism with NEEDS_CLIPPED_WRITE.
Set it for Mac OS X by default. It may be necessary to include this
function on Windows, too.

strbuf_branchname(): do not double-expand @{-1}~22
If you were on 'frotz' branch before you checked out your current
branch, "git merge @{-1}~22" means the same as "git merge frotz~22".
The strbuf_branchname() function, when interpret_branch_name() gives
up resolving "@{-1}~22" fully, returns "frotz" and tells the caller
that it only resolved "@{-1}" part of the input, mistakes this as a
total failure, and appends the whole thing to the result, yielding
"frotz@{-1}~22", which does not make any sense.
Inspect the return value from interpret_branch_name() a bit more
carefully. When it errored out without consuming anything, we will
get -1 and we should return the whole thing. Otherwise, we should
append the remainder (i.e. "~22" in the earlier example) to the
partially resolved name (i.e. "frotz").
The test suite adds enough number of checkout to make @{-12} in the
last test in t0100 that tried to check "we haven't flipped branches
that many times" error case succeed; raise the number to a hundred.

revision.c: make default history consider bottom commits
Previously, the default history treated bottom commits the same as any
other UNINTERESTING commit, which could force it down side branches.
Consider the following history:
*A--*B---D--*F * marks !TREESAME parent paths
\ /*
`-C-'
When requesting "B..F", B is UNINTERESTING but TREESAME to D. C is
!UNINTERESTING.
So default following would go from D into the irrelevant side branch C
to A, rather than to B. Note also that if there had been an extra
!UNINTERESTING commit B1 between B and D, it wouldn't have gone down C.
Change the default following to test relevant_commit() instead of
!UNINTERESTING, so it can proceed straight from D to B, thus finishing
the traversal of that path.

revision.c: discount side branches when computing TREESAME
Use the BOTTOM flag to define relevance for pruning. Relevant commits
are those that are !UNINTERESTING or BOTTOM, and this allows us to
identify irrelevant side branches (UNINTERESTING && !BOTTOM).
If a merge has relevant parents, and it is TREESAME to them, then do not
let irrelevant parents cause the merge to be treated as !TREESAME.
When considering simplification, don't always include all merges -
merges with exactly one relevant parent can be simplified, if TREESAME
according to the above rule.
These two changes greatly increase simplification in limited, pruned
revision lists.

When performing edge-based operations on the revision graph, it can be
useful to be able to identify the INTERESTING graph's connection(s) to
the bottom commit(s) specified by the user.
Conceptually when the user specifies "A..B" (== B ^A), they are asking
for the history from A to B. The first connection from A onto the
INTERESTING graph is part of that history, and should be considered. If
we consider only INTERESTING nodes and their connections, then we're
really only considering the history from A's immediate descendants to B.
This patch does not change behaviour, but adds a new BOTTOM flag to
indicate the bottom commits specified by the user, ready to be used by
following patches.
We immediately use the BOTTOM flag to return collect_bottom_commits() to
its original approach of examining the pending commit list rather than
the command line. This will ensure alignment of the definition of
"bottom" with future patches.

simplify-merges: drop merge from irrelevant side branch
Reimplement commit 4b7f53da on top of the new simplify-merges
infrastructure, tightening the condition to only consider root parents;
the original version incorrectly dropped parents that were TREESAME to
anything.
Original log message follows.
The merge simplification rule stated in 6546b59 (revision traversal:
show full history with merge simplification, 2008-07-31) still
treated merge commits too specially. Namely, in a history with this
shape:
---o---o---M
/
x---x---x
where three 'x' were on a history completely unrelated to the main
history 'o' and do not touch any of the paths we are following, we
still said that after simplifying all of the parents of M, 'x'
(which is the leftmost 'x' that rightmost 'x simplifies down to) and
'o' (which would be the last commit on the main history that touches
the paths we are following) are independent from each other, and
both need to be kept.
That is incorrect; when the side branch 'x' never touches the paths,
it should be removed to allow M to simplify down to the last commit
on the main history that touches the paths.

simplify-merges: never remove all TREESAME parents
When simplifying an odd merge, such as one that used "-s ours", we may
find ourselves TREESAME to apparently redundant parents. Prevent
simplify_merges() from removing every TREESAME parent; if this would
happen reinstate the first TREESAME parent - the one that the default
log would have followed.
This avoids producing a totally disjoint history from the default log
when the default log is a better explanation of the end result, and aids
visualisation of odd merges.

revision.c: Make --full-history consider more merges
History simplification previously always treated merges as TREESAME
if they were TREESAME to any parent.
While this was consistent with the default behaviour, this could be
extremely unhelpful when searching detailed history, and could not be
overridden. For example, if a merge had ignored a change, as if by "-s
ours", then:
git log -m -p --full-history -Schange file
would successfully locate "change"'s addition but would not locate the
merge that resolved against it.
Futher, simplify_merges could drop the actual parent that a commit
was TREESAME to, leaving it as a normal commit marked TREESAME that
isn't actually TREESAME to its remaining parent.
Now redefine a commit's TREESAME flag to be true only if a commit is
TREESAME to _all_ of its parents. This doesn't affect either the default
simplify_history behaviour (because partially TREESAME merges are turned
into normal commits), or full-history with parent rewriting (because all
merges are output). But it does affect other modes. The clearest
difference is that --full-history will show more merges - sufficient to
ensure that -m -p --full-history log searches can really explain every
change to the file, including those changes' ultimate fate in merges.
Also modify simplify_merges to recalculate TREESAME after removing
a parent. This is achieved by storing per-parent TREESAME flags on the
initial scan, so the combined flag can be easily recomputed.
This fixes some t6111 failures, but creates a couple of new ones -
we are now showing some merges that don't need to be shown.

Unfortunately, --ancestry-path is also empty. Merges H J and L are all

clearly undesirable in the case of merge L, which dropped our G.t by
taking the non-ancestry-path version. Document this as a known failure,

revision.c: treat A...B merge bases as if manually specified
The documentation assures users that "A...B" is defined as "A B --not

the calculated merge bases were not sent to add_rev_cmdline().

git rev-list --ancestry-path A...B
failed with a "no bottom commits" error.

combine-diff.c: Fix output when changes are exactly 3 lines apart
When a deletion is followed by exactly 3 (or whatever the number of
context lines) unchanged lines, followed by another change, the combined
diff output would hide the first deletion, resulting in a malformed
diff.
This happened because the 3 lines before each change are painted
interesting, but also marked as no_pre_delete to prevent showing deletes
that were previously marked as uninteresting. This behaviour was
introduced in c86fbe53 (diff -c/--cc: do not include uninteresting
deletion before leading context). However, as a side effect, this could
also mark deletes that were already interesting as no_pre_delete. This
would happen only if the delete was exactly 3 lines away from the next
change, since lines farther away would not be touched by the "paint
three lines before the change" code and lines closer would be painted
by the "merge two adjacent hunks" code instead, which does not set the
no_pre_delete flag.
This commit fixes this problem by only setting the no_pre_delete flag
for changes that were previously uninteresting.

coverage: do not delete .gcno files before building
The coverage-compile target depends on coverage-clean, which is
supposed to remove the earlier build products that would get in the
way of the next coverage test run.
However, removing *.gcno is actively wrong. These are the files that
contain the compile-time coverage related data. They are only rebuilt
if the source is compiled. So if one ran 'make coverage' two times in
a row, the second run would remove *.gcno, but then fail to recreate
them because neither source files nor build flags have changed. (This
remained hidden for so long most likely because any other intervening
use of 'make' will change the build flags, causing a full rebuild.)
So we make an exception for *.gcno. The *.gcda are the coverage
results, written when the gcov-instrumented program is run. We still
remove those, so as to get a one-test-run view of the data; you could
probably argue the other way too.

The set-up step to prepare a repository with 50000 tags used a
non-porable '\+' to match one-or-more.
The error was not caught because the next test that uses that
repository did not even bother to check if these expected tags were
actually cloned to the resulting repository.
Fix the sed construct to use BRE and update the "clone" test that
wanted to test cloning from such a repository with many refs to
check the resulting repository.
When we run a regular "git fetch" without arguments, we
update the tracking refs according to the configured
refspec. However, when we run "git fetch origin master" (or
"git pull origin master"), we do not look at the configured
refspecs at all, and just update FETCH_HEAD.
We miss an opportunity to update "refs/remotes/origin/master"
(or whatever the user has configured). Some users find this
confusing, because they would want to do further comparisons
against the old state of the remote master, like:
In the currnet code, they are comparing against whatever
commit happened to be in origin/master from the last time
they did a complete "git fetch". This patch will update a
ref from the RHS of a configured refspec whenever we happen
to be fetching its LHS. That makes the case above work.

and when their tracking branches are updated may be
surprised.

Each "struct ref" has a boolean flag that is set by the
fetch code to determine whether the ref should be marked as
"not-for-merge" or not when we write it out to FETCH_HEAD.
It would be useful to turn this boolean into a tri-state,
with the third state meaning "do not bother writing it out
to FETCH_HEAD at all". That would let us add extra refs to
the set of refs to be stored (e.g., to store copies of
things we fetched) without impacting FETCH_HEAD.
This patch turns it into an enum that covers the tri-state
case, and hopefully makes the code more explicit and easier

cherry-pick: picking a tag that resolves to a commit is OK
Earlier, 21246dbb9e0a (cherry-pick: make sure all input objects are

as an error, but broke a more important use case to cherry-pick a
tag that points at a commit.
t5004: avoid using tar for checking emptiness of archive
Test 2 of t5004 checks if a supposedly empty tar archive really
contains no files. 24676f02 (t5004: fix issue with empty archive test
and bsdtar) removed our commit hash to make it work with bsdtar, but
the test still fails on NetBSD and OpenBSD, which use their own tar
that considers a tar file containing only NULs as broken.
Here's what the different archivers do when asked to create a tar
file without entries:
So NetBSD's native tar creates an empty file, while GNU tar and bsdtar
both give us 10KB of NULs -- just like git archive with an empty tree.
Now let's see how the archivers handle these two kinds of empty tar
files:
$ tar tf zero.tar; echo $?
tar: Unexpected EOF on archive file
1
$ gtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
gtar: This does not look like a tar archive
gtar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
2
$ bsdtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
0
$ tar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
tar: Cannot identify format. Searching...
tar: End of archive volume 1 reached
tar: Sorry, unable to determine archive format.
1
$ gtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
$ bsdtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
NetBSD's tar complains about both, bsdtar happily accepts any of them
and GNU tar doesn't like zero-length archive files. So the safest
course of action is to stay with our block-of-NULs format which is
compatible with GNU tar and bsdtar, as we can't make NetBSD's native
tar happy anyway.
We can simplify our test, however, by taking tar out of the picture.
Instead of extracting the archive and checking for the non-presence of
files, check if the file has a size of 10KB and contains only NULs.
This makes t5004 pass on NetBSD and OpenBSD.

Add a test to verify the emptiness of an archive by extracting its
contents. Don't run this test if the version of tar doesn't support
archives containing only a comment header, though.
The existing check 'tar archive of empty tree is empty' used to work
like that (minus the tar capability check) but was changed to depend
on the exact representation of empty tar files created by git archive
instead of on the behaviour of tar in order to avoid issues with
different tar versions.
The different approaches test different things: The existing one is
for empty trees, for which we know the exact expected output and thus
we can simply check it without extracting; the new one is for commits
with empty trees, whose archives include stamps and so the more
"natural" check by extraction is a better fit because it focuses on
the interesting aspect, namely the absence of any archive entries.

files:
$ tar tf zero.tar; echo $?
tar: Unexpected EOF on archive file
1
$ gtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
gtar: This does not look like a tar archive
gtar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
2
$ bsdtar tf zero.tar; echo $?
0
$ tar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
tar: Cannot identify format. Searching...
tar: End of archive volume 1 reached
tar: Sorry, unable to determine archive format.
$ gtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
$ bsdtar tf tenk.tar; echo $?
0
NetBSD's tar complains about both, bsdtar happily accepts any of them
and GNU tar doesn't like zero-length archive files. So the safest
course of action is to stay with our block-of-NULs format which is
compatible with GNU tar and bsdtar, as we can't make NetBSD's native
tar happy anyway.
We can simplify our test, however, by taking tar out of the picture.
Instead of extracting the archive and checking for the non-presence of
files, check if the file has a size of 10KB and contains only NULs.
This makes t5004 pass on NetBSD and OpenBSD.

Versions of tar that don't know pax headers -- like the ones in NetBSD 6
and OpenBSD 5.2 -- extract them as regular files. Explicitly ignore the
file created for our global header when checking the list of extracted
files, as this is normal and harmless fall-back behaviour. This fixes
test 3 of t5004 on these platforms.

The SVN::Fetcher module is now able to filter for inclusion as well
as exclusion (as used by --ignore-path). Also added tests, documentation
changes and git completion script.
If you have an SVN repository with many top level directories and you
only want a git-svn clone of some of them then using --ignore-path is
difficult as it requires a very long regexp. In this case it's much
easier to filter for inclusion.

When the user gives an unknown string to a command that expects to
get a ref, we could be more helpful than just saying "that's not a
ref" and die.
Add helper function help_unknown_ref() to take care of displaying an
error message along with a list of suggested refs the user might
have meant. An interaction with "git merge" might go like this:
$ git merge foo
merge: foo - not something we can merge
Did you mean one of these?

cygwin: Remove the CYGWIN_V15_WIN32API build variable
Commit 380a4d92 ("Update cygwin.c for new mingw-64 win32 api headers",
11-11-2012) solved an header include order problem on cygwin 1.7 when
using the new mingw-64 WIN32 API headers. The solution involved using
a new build variable (V15_MINGW_HEADERS) to conditionally compile the
cygwin.c source file to use an include order appropriate for the old
and new header files. (The build variable was later renamed in commit 9fca6cff to CYGWIN_V15_WIN32API).
The include order used for cygwin 1.7 includes the "win32.h" header
before "../git-compat-util.h". This order was problematic on cygwin
1.5, since it lead to the WIN32 symbol being defined along with the
inclusion of some WIN32 API headers (e.g. <winsock2.h>) which cause
compilation errors.
The header include order problem on cygwin 1.5 has since been fixed
(see commit "mingw: rename WIN32 cpp macro to GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE"),
so we can now remove the conditional compilation along with the
associated CYGWIN_V15_WIN32API build variable.

mingw: rename WIN32 cpp macro to GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE
Throughout git, it is assumed that the WIN32 preprocessor symbol is
defined on native Windows setups (mingw and msvc) and not on Cygwin.
On Cygwin, most of the time git can pretend this is just another Unix
machine, and Windows-specific magic is generally counterproductive.
Unfortunately Cygwin *does* define the WIN32 symbol in some headers.
Best to rely on a new git-specific symbol GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE instead,
defined as follows:
After this change, it should be possible to drop the
CYGWIN_V15_WIN32API setting without any negative effect.

Typing 'HEAD' is tedious, especially when we can use '@' instead.
The reason for choosing '@' is that it follows naturally from the
ref@op syntax (e.g. HEAD@{u}), except we have no ref, and no
operation, and when we don't have those, it makes sens to assume
'HEAD'.
So now we can use 'git show @~1', and all that goody goodness.
Until now '@' was a valid name, but it conflicts with this idea, so
let's make it invalid. Probably very few people, if any, used this name.

This code essentially replaces part of ref with another ref, for example
'@{-1}@{u}' is replaced with 'master@{u}', but this can be reused for
other purposes other than nth prior checkouts.
