Merge branch 'jc/allow-ff-merging-kept-tags' into next
Since Git 1.7.9, "git merge" defaulted to --no-ff (i.e. even when
the side branch being merged is a descendant of the current commit,
create a merge commit instead of fast-forwarding) when merging a
tag object. This was appropriate default for integrators who pull
signed tags from their downstream contributors, but caused an
unnecessary merges when used by downstream contributors who
habitually "catch up" their topic branches with tagged releases
from the upstream. Update "git merge" to default to --no-ff only
when merging a tag object that does *not* sit at its usual place in
refs/tags/ hierarchy, and allow fast-forwarding otherwise, to
mitigate the problem.

Amazingly, timegm(gmtime(0)) is only 0 before 2020 because perl's
timegm deviates from GNU timegm(3) in how it handles years.
man Time::Local says
Whenever possible, use an absolute four digit year instead.
with a detailed explanation about ambiguity of 2-digit years above that.
Even though this ambiguity is error-prone with >50% of users getting it
wrong, it has been like this for 20+ years, so we just use 4-digit years
everywhere to be on the safe side.
We add some extra logic to cvsimport because it allows 2-digit year
input and interpreting an 18 as 1918 can be avoided easily and safely.

ref-filter: make "--contains <id>" less chatty if <id> is invalid
Some git commands which use --contains <id> print the whole
help text if <id> is invalid. It should only show the error
message instead.
This patch applies to "git tag", "git branch", "git for-each-ref".
This bug was a side effect of looking up the commit in option
parser callback. When a error occurs in the option parser, the
full usage is shown. To fix this bug, the part related to
looking up the commit was moved outside of the option parser
to the ref-filter module.
Basically, the option parser only parses strings that represent
commits and the ref-filter performs the commit look-up. If an
error occurs during the option parsing, then it must be an invalid
argument and the user should be informed of usage, but if a error
occurs during ref-filtering, then it is a problem with the
argument.

Test helper functions like test_must_fail may produce
messages to stderr when they see a problem. When the tests
are run with "--verbose", this ends up on the test script's
stderr, and the user can read it.
But there's a problem. Some tests record stderr as part of
the test, like:
In this case the error text goes into "output". This makes
the --verbose output less useful (it also means we might
accidentally match it in the second, though in practice we
tend to produce these messages only on error, so we'd abort
the test when the first command fails).
Let's instead send this user-facing output directly to
descriptor 4, which always points to the original stderr (or
/dev/null in non-verbose mode). And it's already forbidden
to redirect descriptor 4, since we use it for BASH_XTRACEFD,
as explained in 9be795fbce (t5615: avoid re-using descriptor
4, 2017-12-08).

This was an undocumented debugging aid that does not seem to
have come in handy in the past decade, judging from its lack
of mentions on the mailing list.
Let's drop it in the name of simplicity. This is morally a
revert of 3131b71301 (Add "--show-all" revision walker flag
for debugging, 2008-02-09), but note that I did leave in the
mapping of UNINTERESTING to "^" in get_revision_mark(). I
don't think this would be possible to trigger with the
current code, but it's the only sensible marker.
We'll skip the usual deprecation period because this was
explicitly a debugging aid that was never documented.

The "--show-all" revision option shows UNINTERESTING
commits. Some of these commits may be unparsed when we try
to show them (since we may or may not need to walk their
parents to fulfill the request).
Commit 3131b71301 (Add "--show-all" revision walker flag for
debugging, 2008-02-09) resolved this by just skipping
pretty-printing for commits without their object contents
cached, saying:
Because we now end up listing commits we may not even have been parsed
at all "show_log" and "show_commit" need to protect against commits
that don't have a commit buffer entry.
That was the easy fix to avoid the pretty-printer segfaulting,
but:
1. It doesn't work for all formats. E.g., --oneline
prints the oid for each such commit but not a trailing
newline, leading to jumbled output.
2. It only affects some commits, depending on whether we
happened to parse them or not (so if they were at the
tip of an UNINTERESTING starting point, or if we
happened to traverse over them, you'd see more data).
3. It unncessarily ties the decision to show the verbose
header to whether the commit buffer was cached. That
makes it harder to change the logic around caching
(e.g., if we could traverse without actually loading
the full commit objects).
These days it's safe to feed such a commit to the
pretty-print code. Since be5c9fb904 (logmsg_reencode: lazily
load missing commit buffers, 2013-01-26), we'll load it on
demand in such a case. So let's just always show the verbose
headers.
This does change the behavior of plumbing, but:
a. The --show-all option was explicitly introduced as a
debugging aid, and was never documented (and has rarely
even been mentioned on the list by git devs).
b. Avoiding the commits was already not deterministic due
to (2) above. So the caller might have seen full
headers for these commits anyway, and would need to be
prepared for it.

The transport-helper protocol c-style quotes the value of
any options passed to the helper via the "option <key> <value>"
directive. However, remote-curl doesn't actually unquote the
push-option values, meaning that we will send the quoted
version to the other side (whereas git-over-ssh would send
the raw value).
The pack-protocol.txt documentation defines the push-options
as a series of VCHARs, which excludes most characters that
would need quoting. But:
1. You can still see the bug with a valid push-option that
starts with a double-quote (since that triggers
quoting).
2. We do currently handle any non-NUL characters correctly
in git-over-ssh. So even though the spec does not say
that we need to handle most quoted characters, it's
nice if our behavior is consistent between protocols.
There are two new tests: the "direct" one shows that this
already works in the non-http case, and the http one covers
this bugfix.

We repeat many lines of setup code in the two http tests,
and further tests would need to repeat it again. Let's
factor this out into a function.
Incidentally, this also fixes an unlikely bug: if the httpd
root path contains a double-quote, our test_when_finished
would barf due to improper quoting (we escape the embedded
quotes, but not the $, meaning we expand the variable before
the eval).

in both the literal code block and the (existing) paragraph following
the block to be outdented, even though they should be indented under
the 'add' sub-command along with the rest of the text pertaining to
that command. Furthermore, the mandatory "+" line separating the code
block from the following text got rendered as a leading character on

merge: allow fast-forward when merging a tracked tag
Long time ago at fab47d05 ("merge: force edit and no-ff mode when
merging a tag object", 2011-11-07), "git merge" was made to always
create a merge commit when merging a tag, even when the side branch
being merged is a descendant of the current branch.
This default is good for merges made by upstream maintainers to
integrate work signed by downstream contributors, but will leave
pointless no-ff merges when downstream contributors pull a newer
release tag to make their long-running topic branches catch up with
the upstream. When there is no local work left on the topic, such a
merge should simply fast-forward to the commit pointed at by the
release tag.
Update the default (again) for "git merge" that merges a tag object
to (1) --no-ff (i.e. create a merge commit even when side branch
fast forwards) if the tag being merged is not at its expected place
in refs/tags/ hierarchy and (2) --ff (i.e. allow fast-forward update
when able) otherwise.
