fsck: optionally show more helpful info for broken links
When reporting broken links between commits/trees/blobs, it would be
quite helpful at times if the user would be told how the object is
supposed to be reachable.
With the new --name-objects option, git-fsck will try to do exactly
that: name the objects in a way that shows how they are reachable.
For example, when some reflog got corrupted and a blob is missing that
should not be, the user might want to remove the corresponding reflog
entry. This option helps them find that entry: `git fsck` will now
report something like this:
broken link from tree b5eb6ff... (refs/stash@{<date>}~37:)
to blob ec5cf80...

blame: allow to blame paths freshly added to the index
When blaming files, changes in the work tree are taken into account
and displayed as being "Not Committed Yet".
However, when blaming a file that is not known to the current HEAD,
git blame fails with `no such path 'foo' in HEAD`, even when the file
was git add'ed.
Allowing such a blame is useful when the new file added to the index
(not yet committed) was created by renaming an existing file. It
also is useful when the new file was created from pieces already in
HEAD, moved or copied from other files and blaming with copy
detection (i.e. "-C").

cache-tree: do not generate empty trees as a result of all i-t-a subentries
If a subdirectory contains nothing but i-t-a entries, we generate an
empty tree object and add it to its parent tree. Which is wrong. Such
a subdirectory should not be added.
Note that this has a cascading effect. If subdir 'a/b/c' contains
nothing but i-t-a entries, we ignore it. But then if 'a/b' contains
only (the non-existing) 'a/b/c', then we should ignore 'a/b' while
building 'a' too. And it goes all the way up to top directory.

cache-tree.c: fix i-t-a entry skipping directory updates sometimes
Commit 3cf773e (cache-tree: fix writing cache-tree when CE_REMOVE is
present - 2012-12-16) skips i-t-a entries when building trees objects
from the index. Unfortunately it may skip too much.
The code in question checks if an entry is an i-t-a one, then no tree
entry will be written. But it does not take into account that
directories can also be written with the same code. Suppose we have
this in the index.
We write an entry for a-file as normal and move on to subdir/file1,
where we realize the entry name for this level is simply just
"subdir", write down an entry for "subdir" then jump three items ahead
to the-last-file.
That is what happens normally when the first file in subdir is not an
i-t-a entry. If subdir/file1 is an i-t-a, because of the broken
condition in this code, we still think "subdir" is an i-t-a file and
not writing "subdir" down and jump to the-last-file. The result tree
now only has two items: a-file and the-last-file. subdir should be
there too (even though it only records two sub-entries, file2 and
file3).
If the i-t-a entry is subdir/file2 or subdir/file3, this is not a
problem because we jump over them anyway. Which may explain why the
bug is hidden for nearly four years.
Fix it by making sure we only skip i-t-a entries when the entry in
question is actual an index entry, not a directory.

If fsck_options->name_objects is initialized, and if it already has
name(s) for the object(s) that are to be the starting point(s) for
fsck_walk(), then that function will now add names for the objects
that were walked.
This will be highly useful for teaching git-fsck to identify root causes
for broken links, which is the task for the next patch in this series.
Note that this patch opts for decorating the objects with plain strings
instead of full-blown structs (à la `struct rev_name` in the code of
the `git name-rev` command), for several reasons:
- the code is much simpler than if it had to work with structs that
describe arbitrarily long names such as "master~14^2~5:builtin/am.c",
- the string processing is actually quite light-weight compared to the
rest of fsck's operation,
- the caller of fsck_walk() is expected to provide names for the
starting points, and using plain and simple strings is just the
easiest way to do that.

archive-tar: huge offset and future timestamps would not work on 32-bit
As we are not yet moving everything to size_t but still using ulong

t0006: skip "far in the future" test when unsigned long is not long enough
Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned longs. On 32-bit
platforms, as well as on Windows, unsigned long is not large enough
to capture dates that are "absurdly far in the future".
While we can fix this issue properly by replacing unsigned long with
a larger type, we want to be a bit more conservative and just skip

push options: {pre,post}-receive hook learns about push options
The environment variable GIT_PUSH_OPTION_COUNT is set to the number of
push options sent, and GIT_PUSH_OPTION_{0,1,..} is set to the transmitted
option.
The code is not executed as the push options are set to NULL, nor is the
new capability advertised.
There was some discussion back and forth how to present these push options
to the user as there are some ways to do it:
Keep all options in one environment variable
============================================
+ easiest way to implement in Git
- This would make things hard to parse correctly in the hook.
Put the options in files instead,
filenames are in GIT_PUSH_OPTION_FILES
======================================
+ After a discussion about environment variables and shells, we may not
want to put user data into an environment variable (see [1] for example).
+ We could transmit binaries, i.e. we're not bound to C strings as
we are when using environment variables to the user.
+ Maybe easier to parse than constructing environment variable names
GIT_PUSH_OPTION_{0,1,..} yourself
- cleanup of the temporary files is hard to do reliably
- we have race conditions with multiple clients pushing, hence we'd need
to use mkstemp. That's not too bad, but still.
Use environment variables, but restrict to key/value pairs
==========================================================
(When the user pushes a push option `foo=bar`, we'd
GIT_PUSH_OPTION_foo=bar)
+ very easy to parse for a simple model of push options
- it's not sufficient for more elaborate models, e.g.
it doesn't allow doubles (e.g. cc=reviewer@email)
Present the options in different environment variables
======================================================
(This is implemented)
* harder to parse as a user, but we have a sample hook for that.
- doesn't allow binary files
+ allows the same option twice, i.e. is not restrictive about
options, except for binary files.
+ doesn't clutter a remote directory with (possibly stale)
temporary files
As we first want to focus on getting simple strings to work
reliably, we go with the last option for now. If we want to
do transmission of binaries later, we can just attach a
'side-channel', e.g. "any push option that contains a '\0' is
put into a file instead of the environment variable and we'd
have new GIT_PUSH_OPTION_FILES, GIT_PUSH_OPTION_FILENAME_{0,1,..}
environment variables".

mechanism to take lowercase letters as exclusion, but we forgot to

When we tried to fix in 58461bd (t1308: do not get fooled by symbolic
links to the source tree, 2016-06-02) an obscure case where the user
cd's into Git's source code via a symbolic link, a regression was
introduced that affects all test runs on Windows.
The original patch introducing the test case in question was careful to
use `$(pwd)` instead of `$PWD`.
This was done to account for the fact that Git's test suite uses shell
scripting even on Windows, where the shell's Unix-y paths are
incompatible with the main Git executable's idea of paths: it only
accepts Windows paths.
It is an awkward but necessary thing, then, to use `$(pwd)` (which gives
us a Windows path) when interacting with the Git executable and `$PWD`
(which gives the shell's idea of the current working directory in Unix-y
form) for shell scripts, including the test suite itself.
Obviously this broke the use case of the Git maintainer when changing
the working directory into Git's source code directory via a symlink,
i.e. when `$(pwd)` does not agree with `$PWD`.
However, we must not fix that use case at the expense of regressing
another use case.
Let's special-case Windows here, even if it is ugly, for lack of a more
elegant solution.

Commit 47abd85 (fetch: Strip usernames from url's before

The push side does not have the merge-commit problem, but it
probably should avoid printing them to stderr. We can reuse

Note that for this to come up, the credentials would have to
appear either on the command line or in a git config file,
neither of which is particularly secure. So people _should_
be switching to using credential helpers instead, which
makes this problem go away. But that's no excuse not to

fsck: use streaming interface for large blobs in pack
For blobs, we want to make sure the on-disk data is not corrupted
(i.e. can be inflated and produce the expected SHA-1). Blob content is
opaque, there's nothing else inside to check for.
For really large blobs, we may want to avoid unpacking the entire blob
in memory, just to check whether it produces the same SHA-1. On 32-bit
systems, we may not have enough virtual address space for such memory
allocation. And even on 64-bit where it's not a problem, allocating a
lot more memory could result in kicking other parts of systems to swap
file, generating lots of I/O and slowing everything down.
For this particular operation, not unpacking the blob and letting
check_sha1_signature, which supports streaming interface, do the job
is sufficient. check_sha1_signature() is not shown in the diff,
unfortunately. But if will be called when "data_valid && !data" is
false.
We will call the callback function "fn" with NULL as "data". The only
callback of this function is fsck_obj_buffer(), which does not touch
"data" at all if it's a blob.

pack-objects: do not truncate result in-pack object size on 32-bit systems
A typical diff will not show what's going on and you need to see full
functions. The core code is like this, at the end of of write_one()
e->idx.offset = *offset;
size = write_object(f, e, *offset);
if (!size) {
e->idx.offset = recursing;
return WRITE_ONE_BREAK;
}
written_list[nr_written++] = &e->idx;
/* make sure off_t is sufficiently large not to wrap */
if (signed_add_overflows(*offset, size))
die("pack too large for current definition of off_t");
*offset += size;
Here we can see that the in-pack object size is returned by
write_object (or indirectly by write_reuse_object). And it's used to
calculate object offsets, which end up in the pack index file,
generated at the end.
If "size" overflows (on 32-bit sytems, unsigned long is 32-bit while
off_t can be 64-bit), we got wrong offsets and produce incorrect .idx
file, which may make it look like the .pack file is corrupted.

http-walker: reduce O(n) ops with doubly-linked list
Using the a Linux-kernel-derived doubly-linked list
implementation from the Userspace RCU library allows us to
enqueue and delete items from the object request queue in
constant time.
This change reduces enqueue times in the prefetch() function
where object request queue could grow to several thousand
objects.
I left out the list_for_each_entry* family macros from list.h
which relied on the __typeof__ operator as we support platforms
without it. Thus, list_entry (aka "container_of") needs to be
called explicitly inside macro-wrapped for loops.
The downside is this costs us an additional pointer per object
request, but this is offset by reduced overhead on queue
operations leading to improved performance and shorter queue
depths.

merge: avoid "safer crlf" during recording of merge results
When merge_recursive() decides what the correct blob object merge
result for a path should be, it uses update_file_flags() helper
function to write it out to a working tree file and then calls
add_cacheinfo(). The add_cacheinfo() function in turn calls
make_cache_entry() to create a new cache entry to replace the
higher-stage entries for the path that represents the conflict.
The make_cache_entry() function calls refresh_cache_entry() to fill
in the cached stat information. To mark a cache entry as
up-to-date, the data is re-read from the file in the working tree,
and goes through convert_to_git() conversion to be compared with the
blob object name the new cache entry records.
It is important to note that this happens while the higher-stage
entries, which are going to be replaced with the new entry, are
still in the index. Unfortunately, the convert_to_git() conversion
has a misguided "safer crlf" mechanism baked in, and looks at the
existing cache entry for the path to decide how to convert the
contents in the working tree file. If our side (i.e. stage#2)
records a text blob with CRLF in it, even when the system is
configured to record LF in blobs and convert them to CRLF upon
checkout (and back to LF upon checkin), the "safer crlf" mechanism
stops us doing so.
This especially poses a problem during a renormalizing merge, where
the merge result for the path is computed by first "normalizing" the
blobs involved in the merge by using convert_to_working_tree()
followed by convert_to_git() with "safer crlf" disabled. The merge
result that is computed correctly and fed to add_cacheinfo() via
update_file_flags() does _not_ match what refresh_cache_entry() sees
by converting the working tree file via convert_to_git().
We can work this around by not refreshing the new cache entry in
make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo(). After add_cacheinfo()
adds the new entry, we can call refresh_cache_entry() on that,
knowing that addition of this new cache entry would have removed the
stale cache entries that had CRLF in stage #2 that were carried over
before the renormalizing merge started and will not interfere with
the correct recording of the result.
The test update was taken from a series by Torsten Bögershausen
that attempted to fix this with a different approach.

pretty: make the skip_blank_lines() function public
The top level documentation "git help git" still pointed at the
documentation set hosted at now-defunct google-code repository.
Update it to point to https://git.github.io/htmldocs/git.html
instead.

"git submodule update" that drives many "git clone" could
eventually hit flaky servers/network conditions on one of the
submodules; the command learned to retry the attempt.

submodule update: continue when a clone fails
submodule--helper: initial clone learns retry logic
A careless invocation of "git send-email directory/" after editing
0001-change.patch with an editor often ends up sending both
0001-change.patch and its backup file, 0001-change.patch~, causing
embarrassment and a minor confusion. Detect such an input and
offer to skip the backup files when sending the patches out.

This allows the user to do something like "worktree lock foo" or
"worktree lock to/foo" instead of "worktree lock /long/path/to/foo" if
it's unambiguous.
With completion support it could be quite convenient. While this base
name search can be done in the same worktree iteration loop, the code is
split into a separate function for clarity.

git-p4: place temporary refs used for branch import under refs/git-p4-tmp
Git-P4 used to place temporary refs under "git-p4-tmp". Since 3da1f37
Git checks that all refs are placed under "refs". Instruct Git-P4 to
place temporary refs under "refs/git-p4-tmp". There are no backwards
compatibility considerations as these refs are transient.
Use "git show-ref --verify" to check the (non-)existience of the refs
instead of file checks assuming the file-based ref backend.
All refs under "refs" are shared across all worktrees. This is not
desired for temporary Git-P4 refs and will be adressed in a later patch.

Since 47f0b6d5 (Fall back to three-way merge when applying a patch.,
2005-10-06), i.e. for almost 11 years already, we used a male form
to describe "the other tree".
While it was unintended, this gave the erroneous impression as if
the Git developers thought of users as male, and were unaware of the
important role in software development played by female actors such
as Ada Lovelace, Grace Hopper and Margaret Hamilton. In fact, the
first professional software developers were all female.
Let's change those unfortunate references to the gender neutral
"their tree". Doing so also makes the fallback_merge_recursive(),
which is an oddball, more in line with the other parts of the system
where we contrast what we have vs what we obtain from others by
saying "ours" vs "theirs". This inconsistency was also unintended.

The helper function tries to offer a way to conveniently show the
last one differently from others, presumably to allow you to say
something like
A, B, and C.
while iterating over a list that has these three elements.
However, there is only one caller, and it passes the same format
string "%s\n" for both the last one and the other ones. Retire the
helper function and update the caller with a simplified version.
We take a printf-style format and a single "char *"
parameter, and the format must therefore have at most one
"%s" in it. Besides being error-prone (and tickling
-Wformat-nonliteral), this is unnecessarily restrictive. We
can just provide the usual varargs interface.

If we already have a strbuf, then using write_file_buf is a
little nicer to read (no wondering whether "%s" will eat
your NULs), and it's more efficient (no extra formatting
step).
We don't care about the newline magic of write_file(), as we
have our own multi-line content.

There are several places where we open a file, write some
content from a strbuf, and close it. These can be simplified
with write_file_buf(). As a bonus, many of these did not
catch write problems at close() time.
