completion: list short refs from a remote given as a URL

e832f5c09680 (completion: avoid ls-remote in certain scenarios,
2013-05-28) turned a 'git ls-remote <remote>' query into a 'git
for-each-ref refs/remotes/<remote>/' to improve responsiveness of
remote refs completion by avoiding potential network communication.
However, it inadvertently made impossible to complete short refs from
a remote given as a URL, e.g. 'git fetch git://server.com/repo.git
<TAB>', because there is, of course, no such thing as
'refs/remotes/git://server.com/repo.git'.

Since the previous commit we tell apart configured remotes, i.e. those
that can have a hierarchy under 'refs/remotes/', from others that
don't, including remotes given as URL, so we know when we can't use
the faster 'git for-each-ref'-based approach.

Resurrect the old, pre-e832f5c09680 'git ls-remote'-based code for the
latter case to support listing short refs from remotes given as a URL.
The code is slightly updated from the original to

- take into account the path to the repository given on the command
line (if any), and
- omit 'ORIG_HEAD' from the query, as 'git ls-remote' will never
list it anyway.

When the remote given to __git_refs() doesn't exist, then it will be
handled by this resurrected 'git ls-remote' query. This code path
doesn't list 'HEAD' unconditionally, which has the nice side effect of
fixing two more expected test failures.

completion: don't list 'HEAD' when trying refs completion outside of a repo

When refs completion is attempted while not in a git repository, the
completion script offers 'HEAD' erroneously.

Check early in __git_refs() that there is either a repository or a
remote to work on, and return early if neither is given.

completion: list refs from remote when remote's name matches a directory

If the remote given to __git_refs() happens to match both the name of
a configured remote and the name of a directory in the current working
directory, then that directory is assumed to be a git repository, and
listing refs from that directory will be attempted. This is wrong,
because in such a situation git commands (e.g. 'git fetch|pull|push
<remote>' whom these refs will eventually be passed to) give
precedence to the configured remote. Therefore, __git_refs() should
list refs from the configured remote as well.

Add the helper function __git_is_configured_remote() that checks
whether its argument matches the name of a configured remote. Use
this helper to decide how to handle the remote passed to __git_refs().

completion: respect 'git --git-dir=<path>' when listing remote refs

In __git_refs() the git commands listing refs, both short and full,
from a given remote repository are run without giving them the path to
the git repository which might have been specified on the command line
via 'git --git-dir=<path>'. This is bad, those git commands should
access the 'refs/remotes/<remote>/' hierarchy or the remote and
credentials configuration in that specified repository.

Use the __gitdir() helper only to find the path to the .git directory
and pass the resulting path to the 'git ls-remote' and 'for-each-ref'
executions that list remote refs. While modifying that 'for-each-ref'
line, remove the superfluous disambiguating doubledash.

Don't use __gitdir() to check that the given remote is on the file
system: basically it performs only a single if statement for us at the
considerable cost of fork()ing a subshell for a command substitution.
We are better off to perform all the necessary checks of the remote in
__git_refs().

Though __git_refs() was the last remaining callsite that passed a
remote to __gitdir(), don't delete __gitdir()'s remote-handling part
yet, just in case some users' custom completion scriptlets depend on
it.

completion: fix most spots not respecting 'git --git-dir=<path>'

The completion script already respects the path to the repository
specified on the command line most of the time, here we add the
necessary '--git-dir=$(__gitdir)' options to most of the places where
git was executed without it. The exceptions where said option is not
added are the git invocations:

- in __git_refs() which are non-trivial and will be the subject of
the following patch,

- getting the list of git commands, merge strategies and archive
formats, because these are independent from the repository and
thus don't need it, and

- the 'git rev-parse --git-dir' in __gitdir() itself.

completion: ensure that the repository path given on the command line exists

The __gitdir() helper function prints the path to the git repository
to its stdout or stays silent and returns with error when it can't
find a repository or when the repository given via $GIT_DIR doesn't
exist.

This is not the case, however, when the path in $__git_dir, i.e. the
path to the repository specified on the command line via 'git
--git-dir=<path>', doesn't exist: __gitdir() still outputs it as if it
were a real existing repository, making some completion functions
believe that they operate on an existing repository.

Check that the path in $__git_dir exists and return with error without
printing anything to stdout if it doesn't.

completion tests: add tests for the __git_refs() helper function

Check how __git_refs() lists refs in different scenarios, i.e.

- short and full refs,
- from a local or from a remote repository,
- remote specified via path, name or URL,
- with or without a repository specified on the command line,
- non-existing remote,
- unique remote branches for 'git checkout's tracking DWIMery,
- not in a git repository, and
- interesting combinations of the above.

Seven of these tests expect failure, mostly demonstrating bugs related
to listing refs from a remote repository:

- ignoring the repository specified on the command line (2 tests),
- listing refs from the wrong place when the name of a configured
remote happens to match a directory,
- listing only 'HEAD' but no short refs from a remote given as URL,
- listing 'HEAD' even from non-existing remotes (2 tests), and
- listing 'HEAD' when not in a repository.

completion tests: consolidate getting path of current working directory

Some tests of the __gitdir() helper function use the $TRASH_DIRECTORY
variable in direct path comparisons. In general this should be
avoided, because it might contain symbolic links. There happens to be
no issues with this here, however, because those tests use
$TRASH_DIRECTORY both for specifying the expected result and for
specifying input which in turn is just 'echo'ed verbatim.

Other __gitdir() tests ask for the path of the trash directory by
running $(pwd -P) in each test, sometimes even twice in a single test.

Run $(pwd) only once at the beginning of the test script to store the
path of the trash directory in a variable, and use that variable in
all __gitdir() tests.

completion tests: make the $cur variable local to the test helper functions

The test helper functions test_gitcomp() and test_gitcomp_nl() leak
the $cur variable into the test environment. Since this variable has
a special role in the Bash completion script (it holds the word
currently being completed) it influences the behavior of most
completion functions and thus this leakage could interfere with
subsequent tests. Although there are no such issues in the current
tests, early versions of the new tests that will be added later in
this series suffered because of this.

It's better to play safe and declare $cur local in those test helper
functions. 'local' is bashism, of course, but the tests of the Bash
completion script are run under Bash anyway, and there are already
other variables declared local in this test script.

The commands git-branch and git-tag accept the '--create-reflog'
option, and create reflog even when core.logallrefupdates
configuration is explicitly set not to.

On the other hand, the negated form '--no-create-reflog' is accepted
as a valid option but has no effect (other than overriding an
earlier '--create-reflog' on the command line). This silent noop may
puzzle users. To communicate that this is a known limitation, add a

color_parse_mem: allow empty color specJeff King Wed, 1 Feb 2017 00:21:29 +0000 (01:21 +0100)

color_parse_mem: allow empty color spec

Prior to c2f41bf52 (color.c: fix color_parse_mem() with
value_len == 0, 2017-01-19), the empty string was
interpreted as a color "reset". This was an accidental
outcome, and that commit turned it into an error.

However, scripts may pass the empty string as a default
value to "git config --get-color" to disable color when the
value is not defined. The git-add--interactive script does
this. As a result, the script is unusable since c2f41bf52
unless you have color.diff.plain defined (if it is defined,
then we don't parse the empty default at all).

Our test scripts didn't notice the recent breakage because
they run without a terminal, and thus without color. They
never hit this code path at all. And nobody noticed the
original buggy "reset" behavior, because it was effectively
a noop.

Let's fix the code to have an empty color name produce an
empty sequence of color codes. The tests need a few fixups:

- we'll add a new test in t4026 to cover this case. But
note that we need to tweak the color() helper. While
we're there, let's factor out the literal ANSI ESC
character. Otherwise it makes the diff quite hard to
read.

- we'll add a basic sanity-check in t4026 that "git add
-p" works at all when color is enabled. That would have
caught this bug, as well as any others that are specific
to the color code paths.

- 73c727d69 (log --graph: customize the graph lines with
config log.graphColors, 2017-01-19) added a test to
t4202 that checks some "invalid" graph color config.
Since ",, blue" before yielded only "blue" as valid, and
now yields "empty, empty, blue", we don't match the
expected output.

One way to fix this would be to change the expectation
to the empty color strings. But that makes the test much
less interesting, since we show only two graph lines,
both of which would be colorless.

Since the empty-string case is now covered by t4026,
let's remove them entirely here. They're just in the way
of the primary thing the test is supposed to be
checking.

builtin/commit.c: switch to strbuf, instead of snprintf()

Switch to dynamic allocation with strbuf, so we can avoid dealing
with magic numbers in the code and reduce the cognitive burden from
the programmers. The original code is correct, but programmers no
longer have to count bytes needed for static allocation to know that.

As a side effect of this change, we also reduce the snprintf()
calls, that may silently truncate results if the programmer is not
careful.

update-ref: add test cases for bare repository

The default behavior of update-ref to create reflogs differs in
repositories with worktree and bare ones. The existing tests cover only
the behavior of repositories with worktree.

This commit adds tests that assert the correct behavior in bare
repositories for update-ref. Two cases are covered:

- If core.logAllRefUpdates is not set, no reflogs should be created
- If core.logAllRefUpdates is true, reflogs should be created

refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = alwaysCornelius Weig Fri, 27 Jan 2017 10:09:47 +0000 (11:09 +0100)

refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = always

When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs
that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we
know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and
that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a
hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old
history immediately).

However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log
for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than
the performance implications of keeping the log around.

This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates
option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless
where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like
ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

t0001: don't let a default ACL interfere with the umask test

The "init creates a new deep directory (umask vs. shared)" test expects
the permissions of newly created files to be based on the umask, which
fails if a default ACL is inherited from the working tree for git. So
attempt to remove a default ACL if there is one. Same idea as
8ed0a740dd42bd0724aebed6e3b07c4ea2a2d5e8. (I guess I'm the only one who

git-p4: fix git-p4.mapUser on WindowsGeorge Vanburgh Wed, 25 Jan 2017 09:17:29 +0000 (09:17 +0000)

git-p4: fix git-p4.mapUser on Windows

When running git-p4 on Windows, with multiple git-p4.mapUser entries in
git config - no user mappings are applied to the generated repository.

Reproduction Steps:

1. Add multiple git-p4.mapUser entries to git config on a Windows
machine
2. Attempt to clone a p4 repository

None of the user mappings will be applied.

This issue is actually caused by gitConfigList, using split(os.linesep)
to convert the output of git config --get-all into a list. On Windows,
os.linesep is equal to '\r\n' - however git.exe returns configuration
with a line seperator of '\n'.

This leads to the list returned by gitConfigList containing only one
element - which contains the full output of git config --get-all in
string form, which causes problems for the code introduced to
getUserMapFromPerforceServer in 10d08a149d ("git-p4: map a P4 user to
Git author name and email address", 2016-03-01)

This issue should be caught by the test introduced in 10d08a1, however
would require running on Windows to reproduce.

Using splitlines solves this issue, by splitting config on all
typical delimiters ('\n', '\r\n' etc.)

help: improve is_executable() on WindowsHeiko Voigt Mon, 30 Jan 2017 12:40:58 +0000 (13:40 +0100)

help: improve is_executable() on Windows

On Windows, executables need to have the file extension `.exe`, or they
are not executables. Hence, to support scripts, Git for Windows also
looks for a she-bang line by opening the file in question, and executing
it via the specified script interpreter.

To figure out whether files in the `PATH` are executable, `git help` has
code that imitates this behavior. With one exception: it *always* opens
the files and looks for a she-bang line *or* an `MZ` tell-tale
(nevermind that files with the magic `MZ` but without file extension
`.exe` would still not be executable).

Opening this many files leads to performance problems that are even more
serious when a virus scanner is running. Therefore, let's change the
code to look for the file extension `.exe` early, and avoid opening the
file altogether if we already know that it is executable.

See the following measurements (in seconds) as an example, where we
execute a simple program that simply lists the directory contents and
calls open() on every listed file:

With virus scanner running (coldcache):

$ ./a.exe /libexec/git-core/
before open (git-add.exe): 0.000000
after open (git-add.exe): 0.412873
before open (git-annotate.exe): 0.000175
after open (git-annotate.exe): 0.397925
before open (git-apply.exe): 0.000243
after open (git-apply.exe): 0.399996
before open (git-archive.exe): 0.000147
after open (git-archive.exe): 0.397783
before open (git-bisect--helper.exe): 0.000160
after open (git-bisect--helper.exe): 0.397700
before open (git-blame.exe): 0.000160
after open (git-blame.exe): 0.399136
...

With virus scanner running (hotcache):

$ ./a.exe /libexec/git-core/
before open (git-add.exe): 0.000000
after open (git-add.exe): 0.000325
before open (git-annotate.exe): 0.000229
after open (git-annotate.exe): 0.000177
before open (git-apply.exe): 0.000167
after open (git-apply.exe): 0.000150
before open (git-archive.exe): 0.000154
after open (git-archive.exe): 0.000156
before open (git-bisect--helper.exe): 0.000132
after open (git-bisect--helper.exe): 0.000180
before open (git-blame.exe): 0.000718
after open (git-blame.exe): 0.000724
...

With this patch I get:

$ time git help git
Launching default browser to display HTML ...

real 0m8.723s
user 0m0.000s

and without

$ time git help git

real 1m37.734s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.031s

both tests with cold cache and giving the machine some time to settle
down after restart.

mingw: allow hooks to be .exe files

Executable files in Windows need to have the extension '.exe', otherwise
they do not work. Extend the hooks to not just look at the hard coded
names, but also at the names extended by the custom STRIP_EXTENSION,
which is defined as '.exe' in Windows.

doc: clarify distinction between sign-off and pgp-signing

The documentation for submission discourages pgp-signing, but demands
a proper sign-off by contributors. However, when skimming the headings,
the wording of the section for sign-off could mistakenly be understood
as concerning pgp-signing. Thus, new contributors could oversee the
necessary sign-off.

This commit improves the wording such that the section about sign-off
cannot be misunderstood as pgp-signing. In addition, the paragraph about
pgp-signing is changed such that it avoids the impression that
pgp-signing could be relevant at later stages of the submission.

test-lib: on FreeBSD, look for unzip(1) in /usr/local/bin/

Eric Wong reported that while FreeBSD has a /usr/bin/unzip, it uses
different semantics from those that are needed by Git's tests: When
passing the -a option to Info-Zip, it heeds the text attribute of the
.zip file's central directory, while FreeBSD's unzip ignores that
attribute.

The common work-around is to install Info-Zip on FreeBSD, into
/usr/local/bin/.

t/Makefile: add a rule to re-run previously-failed tests

This patch automates the process of determining which tests failed
previously and re-running them.

While developing patch series, it is a good practice to run the test
suite from time to time, just to make sure that obvious bugs are caught
early. With complex patch series, it is common to run `make -j15 -k
test`, i.e. run the tests in parallel and *not* stop at the first
failing test but continue. This has the advantage of identifying
possibly multiple problems in one big test run.

It is particularly important to reduce the turn-around time thusly on
Windows, where the test suite spends 45 minutes on the computer on which
this patch was developed.

It is the most convenient way to determine which tests failed after
running the entire test suite, in parallel, to look for left-over "trash
directory.t*" subdirectories in the t/ subdirectory. However, those
directories might live outside t/ when overridden using the
--root=<directory> option, to which the Makefile has no access. The next
best method is to grep explicitly for failed tests in the test-results/
directory, which the Makefile *can* access.

Please note that the often-recommended `prove` tool requires Perl, and
that opens a whole new can of worms on Windows. As no native Windows Perl
comes with Subversion bindings, we have to use a Perl in Git for Windows
that uses the POSIX emulation layer named MSYS2 (which is a portable
version of Cygwin). When using this emulation layer under stress, e.g.
when running massively-parallel tests, unexplicable crashes occur quite
frequently, and instead of having a solution to the original problem, the
developer now has an additional, quite huge problem. For that reason, this
developer rejected `prove` as a solution and went with this patch instead.
