However, this isn't immediately obvious to users as alias instances
typically begin with a command.

tag: add tag.gpgSign config option to force all tags be GPG-signed
As many CI/CD tools don't allow to control command line options when
executing `git tag` command, a default value in the configuration file
will allow to enforce tag signing if required.
The new config-file option tag.gpgSign is added to define default behavior
of tag signings. To override default behavior the command line option -s,
--sign and --no-sign can be used:
$ git tag -m "commit message"
will generate a GPG signed tag if tag.gpgSign option is true, while
$ git tag --no-sign -m "commit message"
will skip the signing step.

merge-recursive: restore accidentally dropped setting of path
In commit 8daec1df03de ("merge-recursive: switch from (oid,mode) pairs
to a diff_filespec", 2019-04-05), we actually switched from
(oid,mode,path) triplets to a diff_filespec -- but most callsites in the
patch only needed to worry about oid and mode so the commit message
focused on that. The oversight in the commit message apparently spilled
over to the code as well; one of the dozen or so callsites accidentally
dropped the setting of the path in the conversion. Restore the path
setting in that location.
Also, this pointed out that our testsuite was lacking a good rename/add
test, at least one that involved the need for merge content with the
rename. Add such a test, and since rename/add vs. add/rename could
possibly be important, redo the merge the opposite direction to make
sure we don't have issues with the direction of the merge. These
testcases failed before restoring the setting of path, but with the
paths appropriately set the testcases both pass.

If someone wants to use as a filter a sparse file that is in the
repository, something like "--filter=sparse:oid=<ref>:<path>"
already works.
So 'sparse:path' is only interesting if the sparse file is not in
the repository. In this case though the current implementation has
a big security issue, as it makes it possible to ask the server to
read any file, like for example /etc/password, and to explore the
filesystem, as well as individual lines of files.
If someone is interested in using a sparse file that is not in the
repository as a filter, then at the minimum a config option, such
as "uploadpack.sparsePathFilter", should be implemented first to
restrict the directory from which the files specified by
'sparse:path' can be read.
For now though, let's just disable 'sparse:path' filters.

parse-options: check empty value in OPT_INTEGER and OPT_ABBREV
When parsing the argument for OPT_INTEGER and OPT_ABBREV, we check if we
can parse the entire argument to a number with "if (*s)". There is one
missing check: if "arg" is empty to begin with, we fail to notice.
This could happen with long option by writing like
git diff --inter-hunk-context= blah blah
Before 16ed6c97cc (diff-parseopt: convert --inter-hunk-context,
2019-03-24), --inter-hunk-context is handled by a custom parser
opt_arg() and does detect this correctly.
This restores the bahvior for --inter-hunk-context and make sure all
other integer options are handled the same (sane) way. For OPT_ABBREV
this is new behavior. But it makes it consistent with the rest.
PS. OPT_MAGNITUDE has similar code but git_parse_ulong() does detect
empty "arg". So it's good to go.

diff-parseopt: correct variable types that are used by parseopt
Most number-related OPT_ macros store the value in an 'int'
variable. Many of the variables in 'struct diff_options' have a
different type, but during the conversion to using parse_options() I
failed to notice and correct.
The problem was reported on s360x which is a big-endian
architechture. The variable to store '-w' option in this case is
xdl_opts, 'long' type, 8 bytes. But since parse_options() assumes
'int' (4 bytes), it will store bits in the wrong part of xdl_opts. The
problem was found on little-endian platforms because parse_options()
will accidentally store at the right part of xdl_opts.
There aren't much to say about the type change (except that 'int' for
xdl_opts should still be big enough, since Windows' long is the same
size as 'int' and nobody has complained so far). Some safety checks may
be implemented in the future to prevent class of bugs.

send-email: fix regression in sendemail.identity parsing
Fix a regression in my recent 3494dfd3ee ("send-email: do defaults ->
config -> getopt in that order", 2019-05-09). I missed that the
$identity variable needs to be extracted from the command-line before
we do the config reading, as it determines which config variable we
should read first. See [1] for the report.
The sendemail.identity feature was added back in 34cc60ce2b ("send-email: Add support for SSL and SMTP-AUTH",
2007-09-03), there were no tests to assert that it worked properly.
So let's fix both the regression, and add some tests to assert that
this is being parsed properly. While I'm at it I'm adding a
--no-identity option to go with --[to|cc|bcc] variable, since the
semantics are similar. It's like to/cc/bcc except that unlike those we
don't support multiple identities, but we could now easily add it
support for it if anyone cares.
In just fixing the --identity command-line parsing bug I discovered
that a narrow fix to that wouldn't do. In read_config() we had a state
machine that would only set config values if they weren't set already,
and thus by proxy we wouldn't e.g. set "to" based on sendemail.to if
we'd seen sendemail.gmail.to before, with --identity=gmail.
I'd modified some of the relevant code in 3494dfd3ee, but just
reverting to that wouldn't do, since it would bring back the
regression fixed in that commit.
Refactor read_config() do what we actually mean here. We don't want to
set a given sendemail.VAR if a sendemail.$identity.VAR previously set
it. The old code was conflating this desire with the hardcoded
defaults for these variables, and as discussed in 3494dfd3ee that was
never going to work. Instead pass along the state of whether an
identity config set something before, as distinguished from the state
of the default just being false, or the default being a non-bool or
true (e.g. --transferencoding).
I'm still not happy with the test coverage here, e.g. there's nothing
testing sendemail.smtpEncryption, but I only have so much time to fix
this code.
We check for a handy environment variable GIT_DEBUGGER when running via
bin-wrappers/, but this feature is undocumented. Add a hint to how to
use it into the CodingGuidelines (which is where other useful
environment settings like DEVELOPER are documented).

p4 unshelve: fix "Not a valid object name HEAD0" on Windows
git p4 unshelve was failing with these errors:
fatal: Not a valid object name HEAD0
Command failed: git cat-file commit HEAD^0
(git version 2.21.0.windows.1, python 2.7.16)
The pOpen call used by git-p4 to invoke the git command can take either a
string or an array as a first argument. The array form is preferred
because platform-specific escaping of special characters will be
handled automatically.(https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html)
The extractLogMessageFromGitCommit method was, however, using the string
form and so the caret (^) character in the HEAD^0 argument was not being
escaped on Windows. The caret happens to be the escape character, which
is why the git command was receiving HEAD0.
The behaviour can be confirmed by typing ECHO HEAD^0 at the command-
prompt, which emits HEAD0.
The solution is simply to use the array format of passing the command to
fOpen, which is recommended and used in other parts of this code anyway.

However, there is a problem with the current use. The definition of

clearly stated above the definition (in a comment) that this is so
OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH implies OBJECT_INFO_QUICK. The problem is that using

OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH.
Split out the single bit from OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH into a new
OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT as the single bit and keep
OBJECT_INFO_FOR_PREFETCH as the union of two flags. This allows a clearer use
of flag checking while also keeping the implication of OBJECT_INFO_QUICK.

mark_fsmonitor_valid(): mark the index as changed if needed
Without this bug fix, t7519's four "status doesn't detect unreported
modifications" test cases would fail occasionally (and, oddly enough,
*a lot* more frequently on Windows).
The reason is that these test cases intentionally use the side effect of
`git status` to re-write the index if any updates were detected: they
first clean the worktree, run `git status` to update the index as well
as show the output to the casual reader, then make the worktree dirty
again and expect no changes to reported if running with a mocked
fsmonitor hook.
The problem with this strategy was that the index was written during
said `git status` on the clean worktree for the *wrong* reason: not
because the index was marked as changed (it wasn't), but because the
recorded mtimes were racy with the index' own mtime.
As the mtime granularity on Windows is 100 nanoseconds (see e.g.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/SysInfo/file-times),
the mtimes of the files are often enough *not* racy with the index', so
that that `git status` call currently does not always update the index
(including the fsmonitor extension), causing the test case to fail.
The obvious fix: if we change *any* index entry's `CE_FSMONITOR_VALID`
flag, we should also mark the index as changed. That will cause the
index to be written upon `git status`, *including* an updated fsmonitor
extension.
Side note: Even though the reader might think that the t7519 issue
should be *much* more prevalent on Linux, given that the ext4 filesystem
(that seems to be used by every Linux distribution) stores mtimes in
nanosecond precision. However, ext4 uses `current_kernel_time()` (see
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/11599#comment762968_11599; it
is *amazingly* hard to find any proper source of information about such
ext4 questions) whose accuracy seems to depend on many factors but is
safely worse than the 100-nanosecond granularity of NTFS (again, it is
*horribly* hard to find anything remotely authoritative about this
question). So it seems that the racy index condition that hid the bug
fixed by this patch simply is a lot more likely on Linux than on
Windows. But not impossible ;-)

The protocol documentation states that the command must come first. The

why we haven't noticed this. This was noticed when testing against a

grep_source(), which performs much of the work for Git's grep library,
allows passing an arbitrary struct grep_source which represents the text
which grep_source() should search to match a pattern in the provided
struct grep_opt. In most callers, the grep_source::name field is set to
an appropriate prefix to print before a colon when a result matches:
README:Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General
One caller, grep_buffer(), leaves the grep_source::name field set to
NULL because there isn't enough context to determine an appropriate name
for this kind of output line. In practice, this has been fine: the only
caller of grep_buffer() is "git log --grep", and that caller sets
grep_opt::status_only, which disables output and only checks whether a
match exists. But this is brittle: a future caller can call
grep_buffer() without grep_opt::status_only set, and as soon as it hits
a match, grep_source() will try to print the match and segfault:
(null):Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General
For example, a future caller might want to print all matching lines from
commits which match a regex.
Futureproof by diagnosing early a use of the API that could trigger that
condition, before we know whether the pattern matches:
BUG: grep.c:1783: grep call which could print a name requires
grep_source.name be non-NULL
Aborted
This way, the caller's author gets an indication of how to fix the issue
- by providing grep_source::name or setting grep_opt::status_only - and
they are warned of the potential for a segfault unconditionally, rather
than only if there is a match.

revision: keep topo-walk free of unintersting commits

This change should speed up these cases, but there is still a need
for corrected commit-date for some A..B queries.

revision: use generation for A..B --topo-order queries
If a commit-graph exists with computed generation numbers, then a
'git rev-list --topo-order -n <N> <rev>' query will use those generation
numbers to reduce the number of commits walked before writing N commits.
One caveat put in b454241 (revision.c: generation-based topo-order
algorithm, 2018-11-01) was to not enable the new algorithm for queries
with a revision range "A..B". The logic was placed to walk from "A" and
mark those commits as uninteresting, but the performance was actually
worse than the existing logic in some cases.
The root cause of this performance degradation is that generation
numbers _increase_ the number of commits we walk relative to the
existing heuristic of walking by commit date. While generation numbers
actually guarantee that the algorithm is correct, the existing logic
is very rarely wrong and that added requirement is not worth the cost.
This motivates the planned "corrected commit date" to replace
generation numbers in a future version of Git.
The current change enables the logic to use whatever reachability
index is currently in the commit-graph (generation numbers or
corrected commit date).
The limited flag in struct rev_info forces a full walk of the
commit history (after discovering the A..B range). Previosuly, it
is enabled whenever we see an uninteresting commit. We prevent
enabling the parameter when we are planning to use the reachability
index for a topo-order.

In --interactive mode, "git am --resolved" will try to generate a patch
based on what is in the index, so that it can prompt "apply this
patch?". To do so it needs the tree of HEAD, which it tries to get with
get_oid_tree(). However, this doesn't yield a tree object; the "tree"
part just means "if you must disambiguate short oids, then prefer trees"
(and we do not need to disambiguate at all, since we are feeding a ref).
Instead, we must parse the oid as a commit (which should always be true
in a non-corrupt repository), and access its tree pointer manually.
This has been broken since the conversion to C in 7ff2683253
(builtin-am: implement -i/--interactive, 2015-08-04), but there was no
test coverage because of interactive-mode's insistence on having a tty.
That was lifted in the previous commit, so we can now add a test for
this case.
Note that before this patch, the test would result in a BUG() which
comes from 3506dc9445 (has_uncommitted_changes(): fall back to empty
tree, 2018-07-11). But before that, we'd have simply segfaulted (and in
fact this is the exact type of case the BUG() added there was trying to
catch!).

We have required that the stdin of "am --interactive" be a tty since a1451104ac (git-am: interactive should fail gracefully., 2005-10-12).
However, this isn't strictly necessary, and makes the tool harder to
test (and is unlike all of our other --interactive commands).
The goal of that commit was to make sure that somebody does not do:
git am --interactive <mbox
and cause us to read commands from the mbox. But we can simply check
up front for this case and complain before entering the interactive
loop.
Technically this disallows:
git am --interactive </dev/null
where our lack of patches means we would never prompt for anything, and
so the old code would not notice our lack of tty (and now we'd die
early). But since such a command is totally pointless, it's no loss.

In the conversion of git-am from shell script to C, we switched to using
git_prompt(). Unlike the original shell command "read reply", this
doesn't read from stdin at all, but rather from /dev/tty.
In most cases this distinction wouldn't matter. We require (as the shell
script did) that stdin is a tty, so they would generally be the same
thing. But one important exception is our test suite: even with
test_terminal, we cannot test "am --interactive" because it insists on
reading from /dev/tty, not the pseudo-tty we've set up in the test
script.
Fixing this clears the way to adding tests in a future patch.

We'll never see a NULL returned from git_prompt(); if it can't produce
any input for us (e.g., because the terminal got EOF) then it will just
die().
So there's no need for us to handle NULL here. And even if there was, it
doesn't make sense to continue; on a true terminal hangup we'd just loop
infinitely trying to get input that will never come.

progress: avoid empty line when breaking the progress line
Since commit 545dc345eb (progress: break too long progress bar lines,
2019-04-12) when splitting a too long progress line, sometimes it
looks as if a superfluous empty line were added between the title
line and the counters.
To make sure that the previously displayed progress line is completely
covered up when writing the new, shorter title line, we calculate how
many characters need to be overwritten with spaces. Alas, this
calculation doesn't account for the newline character at the end of
the new title line, and resulted in printing one more space than
strictly necessary. This extra space character doesn't matter, if the
length of the previous progress line was shorter than the width of the
terminal. However, if the previous line matched the terminal width,
then this extra space made the new line longer, effectively adding
that empty line after the title line.
Fix this off-by-one to avoid that spurious empty line.
