We have kept the original "git commit-tree <tree> -p <parent> ..." syntax
forever, but "git commit-tree -p <parent> -p <parent> ... <tree>" would be
more intuitive way to spell it. Dashed flags along with their arguments
come first and then the "thing" argument after the flags.
commit: teach --amend to carry forward extra headers
After running "git pull $there for-linus" to merge a signed tag, the
integrator may need to amend the resulting merge commit to fix typoes
in it. Teach --amend option to read the existing extra headers, and
carry them forward.
merge: force edit and no-ff mode when merging a tag object
Now that we allow pulling a tag from the remote site to validate the
authenticity, we should give the user the final chance to verify and edit
the merge message. The integrator is expected to leave a meaningful merge
commit log in the history. Disallow fast-forwarding in such a case to
ensure that a merge commit is always recorded.
commit: copy merged signed tags to headers of merge commit
Now MERGE_HEAD records the tag objects without peeling, we could record
the result of manual conflict resolution via "git commit" without losing
the tag information. Introduce a new "mergetag" multi-line header field to
the commit object, and use it to store the entire contents of each signed
tag merged.
A commit header that has a multi-line payload begins with the header tag
(e.g. "mergetag" in this case), SP, the first line of payload, LF, and all
the remaining lines have a SP inserted at the beginning.
In hindsight, it would have been better to make "merge --continue" as the
way to continue from such an interrupted merge, not "commit", but this is
a backward compatibility baggage we would need to carry around for now.
merge: record tag objects without peeling in MERGE_HEAD
Otherwise, "git commit" wouldn't have a way to tell that we were in the
middle of merging an annotated or signed tag, not a plain commit, after
"git merge" stops to ask the user to resolve conflicts.
The merge-recursive code uses the commit->util field directly to annotate
the commit objects given from the command line, i.e. the remote heads to
be merged, with a single string to be used to describe it in its trace
messages and conflict markers.
Correct this short-signtedness by redefining the field to be a pointer to
a structure "struct merge_remote_desc" that later enhancements can add
more information. Store the original objects we were told to merge in a
field "obj" in this struct, so that we can recover the tag we were told to
merge.
fmt-merge-msg: Add contents of merged tag in the merge message
When a contributor asks the integrator to merge her history, a signed tag
can be a good vehicle to communicate the authenticity of the request while
conveying other information such as the purpose of the topic.
E.g. a signed tag "for-linus" can be created, and the integrator can run:
$ git pull git://example.com/work.git/ for-linus
This would allow the integrator to run "git verify-tag FETCH_HEAD" to
validate the signed tag.
Update fmt-merge-msg so that it pre-fills the merge message template with
the body (but not signature) of the tag object to help the integrator write
a better merge message, in the same spirit as the existing merge.log summary
lines.
The message that comes from GPG signature validation is also included in
the merge message template to help the integrator verify it, but they are
prefixed with "#" to make them comments.
In various places in the codepath, the program tries to return early
assuming there is no more work needed. That is generally untrue when
over time new features are added.
refs DWIMmery: use the same rule for both "git fetch" and others
"git log frotz" can DWIM to "refs/remotes/frotz/HEAD", but in the remote
access context, "git fetch frotz" to fetch what the other side happened to
have fetched from what it calls 'frotz' (which may not have any relation
to what we consider is 'frotz') the last time would not make much sense,
so the fetch rules table did not include "refs/remotes/%.*s/HEAD".
When the user really wants to, "git fetch $there remotes/frotz/HEAD" would
let her do so anyway, so this is not about safety or security; it merely
is about confusion avoidance and discouraging meaningless usage.
Specifically, it is _not_ about ambiguity avoidance. A name that would
become ambiguous if we use the same rules table for both fetch and local
rev-parse would be ambiguous locally at the remote side.
So for the same reason as we added rule to allow "git fetch $there v1.0"
instead of "git fetch $there tags/v1.0" in the previous commit, here is a
bit longer rope for the users, which incidentally simplifies our code.
merge: notice local merging of tags and keep it unwrapped
This also updates the autogenerated merge title message from "merge commit X"
to "merge tag X", and its effect can be seen in the changes to the test suite.
fetch: do not store peeled tag object names in FETCH_HEAD
We do not want to record tags as parents of a merge when the user does
"git pull $there tag v1.0" to merge tagged commit, but that is not a good
enough excuse to peel the tag down to commit when storing in FETCH_HEAD.
The caller of underlying "git fetch $there tag v1.0" may have other uses
of information contained in v1.0 tag in mind.
[jc: the test adjustment is to update for the new expectation]
This mostly moves existing code from builtin/tag.c (for signing)
and builtin/verify-tag.c (for verifying) to a new gpg-interface.c
file to provide a more generic library interface.
- sign_buffer() takes a payload strbuf, a signature strbuf, and a signing
key, runs "gpg" to produce a detached signature for the payload, and
appends it to the signature strbuf. The contents of a signed tag that
concatenates the payload and the detached signature can be produced by
giving the same strbuf as payload and signature strbuf.
- verify_signed_buffer() takes a payload and a detached signature as
<ptr, len> pairs, and runs "gpg --verify" to see if the payload matches
the signature. It can optionally capture the output from GPG to allow
the callers to pretty-print it in a way more suitable for their
contexts.
"verify-tag" (aka "tag -v") used to save the whole tag contents as if it
is a detached signature, and fed gpg the payload part of the tag. It
relied on gpg to fail when the given tag is not signed but just is
annotated. The updated run_gpg_verify() function detects the lack of
detached signature in the input, and errors out without bothering "gpg".

The http_init function takes a "struct remote". Part of its
initialization procedure is to look at the remote's url and
grab some auth-related parameters. However, using the url
included in the remote is:
- wrong; the remote-curl helper may have a separate,
unrelated URL (e.g., from remote.*.pushurl). Looking at
the remote's configured url is incorrect.
- incomplete; http-fetch doesn't have a remote, so passes
NULL. So http_init never gets to see the URL we are
actually going to use.
- cumbersome; http-push has a similar problem to
http-fetch, but actually builds a fake remote just to
pass in the URL.
Instead, let's just add a separate URL parameter to
http_init, and all three callsites can pass in the
appropriate information.

cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30) broke
the expansion of aliases.
This was caused by treating %config_path_settings, newly introduced in
said patch, like %config_bool_settings instead of like %config_settings.
Copy from %config_settings, making it more readable.
While at it add basic test for expansion of aliases, and for path
expansion, which would catch this error.
Nb. there were a few issues that were responsible for this error:
1. %config_bool_settings and %config_settings despite similar name have
different semantic.
%config_bool_settings values are arrays where the first element is
(reference to) the variable to set, and second element is default
value... which admittedly is a bit cryptic. More readable if more
verbose option would be to use hash reference, e.g.:
%config_settings values are either either reference to scalar variable
or reference to array. In second case it means that option (or config
option) is multi-valued. BTW. this is similar to what Getopt::Long does.
2. In cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30)
the setting "aliasesfile" was moved from %config_settings to newly
introduced %config_path_settings. But the loop that parses settings
from %config_path_settings was copy'n'pasted *wrongly* from
%config_bool_settings instead of from %config_settings.
It looks like cec5dae author cargo-culted this change...
