git(1): remove a defunct link to "list of authors"
The linked page has not been showing the promised "more complete
list" for more than 6 months by now, and nobody has resurrected
the list there nor elsewhere since then.
Documentation/diff-config: work around AsciiDoc misfortune
The line that happens to begin with indent followed by "3. " was
interpreted as if it was an enumerated list; just wrap the lines
differently to work it around for now.
Various codepaths checked if two encoding names are the same using
ad-hoc code and some of them ended up asking iconv() to convert
between "utf8" and "UTF-8". The former is not a valid way to spell
the encoding name, but often people use it by mistake, and we
equated them in some but not all codepaths. Introduce a new helper
function to make these codepaths consistent.

git-remote-helpers.txt: clarify options & ref list attributes
The documentation was misleading in that it gave the impression that
'for-push' could be used as a ref attribute in the output of the
'list' command. That is wrong.
Also, explicitly point out the connection between the commands
'list' and 'options' on the one hand, and the sections
'REF LIST ATTRIBUTES' and 'OPTIONS' on the other hand.

In particular, document 'list for-push' separately from 'list', as
the former needs only be supported for the push/export
capabilities, and the latter only for fetch/import. Indeed, a
hypothetically 'push-only' helper would only need to support the
former, not the latter.

git-remote-helpers.txt: document invocation before input format
In the distant past, the order things were documented was
'Invocation', 'Commands', 'Capabilities', ...
Then it was decided that before giving a list of Commands, there
should be an overall description of the 'Input format', which was
a wise decision. However, this description was put as the very
first thing, with the rationale that any implementor would want
to know that first.
However, it seems an implementor would actually first need to
know how the remote helper will be invoked, so moving
'Invocation' to the front again seems logical. Moreover, we now
don't switch from discussing the input format to the invocation
style and then back to input related stuff.

The getpass-implementation we use on Windows isn't at all ideal;
it works in raw-mode (as opposed to cooked mode), and as a result
does not deal correcly with deletion, arrow-keys etc.
Instead, use cooked mode to read a line at the time, allowing the
C run-time to process the input properly.
Since we set files to be opened in binary-mode by default on
Windows, introduce a FORCE_TEXT macro that expands to the "t"
modifier that forces the terminal to be opened in text-mode so we
do not have to deal with CRLF issues.

The primary thing Linus's patch wanted to change was to make sure
that 0-line change appears for a mode-only change. Update the
first test to chmod a file that we can see in the output (limited
by --stat-count) to demonstrate it. Also make sure to use test_chmod
and compare the index and the tree, so that we can run this test
even on a filesystem without permission bits.
Later two tests are about fixes to separate issues that were
introduced and/or uncovered by Linus's patch as a side effect, but
the issues are not related to mode-only changes. Remove chmod from
the tests.

Even though we show a separate *UNMERGED* entry in the patch and
diffstat output (or in the --raw format, for that matter) in
addition to and separately from the diff against the specified stage
(defaulting to #2) for unmerged paths, they should not be counted in
the total number of files affected---that would lead to counting the
same path twice.
The separation done by the previous step makes this fix simple and
straightforward. Among the filepairs in diff_queue, paths that
weren't modified, and the extra "unmerged" entries do not count as
total number of files.
diff --stat: move the "total count" logic to the last loop
The diffstat generation logic, with --stat-count limit, is
implemented as three loops.
- The first counts the width necessary to show stats up to
specified number of entries, and notes up to how many entries in
the data we need to iterate to show the graph;
- The second iterates that many times to draw the graph, adjusts
the number of "total modified files", and counts the total
added/deleted lines for the part that was shown in the graph;
- The third iterates over the remainder and only does the part to
count "total added/deleted lines" and to adjust "total modified
files" without drawing anything.
Move the logic to count added/deleted lines and modified files from
the second loop to the third loop.
This incidentally fixes a bug. The third loop was not filtering
binary changes (counted in bytes) from the total added/deleted as it
should. The second loop implemented this correctly, so if a binary
change appeared earlier than the --stat-count cutoff, the code
counted number of added/deleted lines correctly, but if it appeared
beyond the cutoff, the number of lines would have mixed with the
byte count in the buggy third loop.
test: add failing tests for "diff --stat" to t4049
There are a few problems in diff.c around --stat area, partially
caused by the recent 74faaa1 (Fix "git diff --stat" for interesting
- but empty - file changes, 2012-10-17), and largely caused by the
earlier change that introduced when --stat-count was added.
Add a few test pieces to t4049 to expose the issues.
tcsh users sometimes alias the 'git' command to another name. In
this case, the user expects to only have to issue a new 'complete'
command using the alias name.
However, the tcsh script currently uses the command typed by the
user to call the appropriate function in git-completion.bash, either
_git() or _gitk(). When using an alias, this technique no longer
works.
This change specifies the real name of the command (either 'git' or
'gitk') as a parameter to the script handling tcsh completion. This
allows the user to use any alias for the 'git' or 'gitk' commands,
while still getting completion to work.
A check for the presence of ${HOME}/.git-completion.bash is also
added to help the user make use of the script properly.

send-email: avoid questions when user has an ident
Currently we keep getting questions even when the user has properly
configured his full name and password:
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>]
And once a question pops up, other questions are turned on. This is
annoying.
The reason it's safe to avoid this question is because currently the
script fails completely when the author (or committer) is not correct,
so we won't even be reaching this point in the code.
The scenarios, and the current situation:
1) No information at all, no fully qualified domain name
fatal: empty ident name (for <felipec@nysa.(none)>) not allowed
2) Only full name
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'felipec@nysa.(none)')
3) Full name + fqdm
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipec@nysa.felipec.org>]
4) Full name + EMAIL
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>]
5) User configured
6) GIT_COMMITTER
7) GIT_AUTHOR
All these are the same as 4)
After this patch:
1) 2) won't change: git send-email would still die
4) 5) 6) 7) will change: git send-email won't ask the user
This is good, that's what we would expect, because the identity is
explicit.
3) will change: git send-email won't ask the user
This is bad, because we will try with an address such as
'felipec@nysa.felipec.org', which is most likely not what the user
wants, but the user will get warned by default (confirm=auto), and if
not, most likely the sending won't work, which the user would readily
note and fix.
The worst possible scenario is that such mail address does work, and the
user sends an email from that address unintentionally, when in fact the
user expected to correct that address in the prompt. This is a very,
very, very unlikely scenario, with many dependencies:
1) No configured user.name/user.email
2) No specified $EMAIL
3) No configured sendemail.from
4) No specified --from argument
5) A fully qualified domain name
6) A full name in the geckos field
7) A sendmail configuration that allows sending from this domain name
8) confirm=never, or
8.1) confirm configuration not hitting, or
8.2) Getting the error, not being aware of it
9) The user expecting to correct this address in the prompt
In a more likely scenario where 7) is not the case (can't send from
nysa.felipec.org), the user will simply see the mail was not sent
properly, and fix the problem.
The much more likely scenario though, is where 5) is not the case
(nysa.(none)), and git send-email will fail right away like it does now.
So the likelihood of this affecting anybody seriously is very very slim,
and the chances of this affecting somebody slightly are still very
small. The vast majority, if not all, of git users won't be affected
negatively, and a lot will benefit from this.
