builtin-commit.c: do not remove COMMIT_EDITMSG
According to the man page, if "git fsck" is passed one or more heads, it
should verify connectivity and validity of only objects reachable from the
heads it is passed.
However, since 5ac0a20 (Make builtin-fsck.c use parse_options.,

http-push: when making directories, have a trailing slash in the path name
The function lock_remote() sends MKCOL requests to make leading
directories; However, if it does not put a forward slash '/' at the end of
the path, the server sends a 301 redirect.
By leaving the '/' in place, we can avoid this additional step.
Incidentally, at least one version of Curl (7.16.3) does not resend
credentials when it follows a 301 redirect, so this commit also fixes
a bug.

When getting the result of remote_ls(), we were advancing the variable

git-commit tries to remove the file ./COMMIT_EDITMSG instead of
$GIT_DIR/COMMIT_EDITMSG after commit preparation (e.g. running
hooks, launching editor).
This behavior exists since f5bbc3225c4b07 "Port git commit to C".
Some test cases (e.g. t/t7502-commit.sh) rely on the existence of
$GIT_DIR/COMMIT_EDITMSG after committing and, I guess, many people
are used to it. So it is best not to remove it.
This patch just removes the removal of COMMIT_EDITMSG.

git checkout: do not allow switching to a tree-ish that is not a commit
"git checkout -b newbranch $commit^{tree}" mistakenly created a new branch

needs to default to checking out the HEAD) were populated incorrectly.

A git patch that does not change the executable bit records the mode bits
on its "index" line. "git apply" used to interpret this mode exactly the
same way as it interprets the mode recorded on "new mode" line, as the
wish by the patch submitter to set the mode to the one recorded on the
line.
The reason the mode does not agree between the submitter and the receiver
in the first place is because there is _another_ commit that only appears
on one side but not the other since their histories diverged, and that
commit changes the mode. The patch has "index" line but not "new mode"
line because its change is about updating the contents without affecting
the mode. The application of such a patch is an explicit wish by the
submitter to only cherry-pick the commit that updates the contents without
cherry-picking the commit that modifies the mode. Viewed this way, the
current behaviour is problematic, even though the command does warn when
the mode of the path being patched does not match this mode, and a careful
user could detect this inconsistencies between the patch submitter and the
patch receiver.
This changes the semantics of the mode recorded on the "index" line;
instead of interpreting it as the submitter's wish to set the mode to the
recorded value, it merely informs what the mode submitter happened to
have, and the presense of the "index" line is taken as submitter's wish to
keep whatever the mode is on the receiving end.
This is based on the patch originally done by Alexander Potashev with a
minor fix; the tests are mine.
Instead of listing short option (e.g. "-U<n>") as a shorthand for its
longer counterpart (e.g. "--unified=<n>"), list the synonyms together. It
saves one indirection to find what the reader wants.

describe: Avoid unnecessary warning when using --all
In 212945d4 ("Teach git-describe to verify annotated tag names
before output") git-describe learned how to output a warning if
an annotated tag object was matched but its internal name doesn't
match the local ref name.
However, "git describe --all" causes the local ref name to be
prefixed with "tags/", so we need to skip over this prefix before
comparing the local ref name with the name recorded inside of the
tag object.

HTTP; handle_remote_ls_ctx() is used to parse its response to populate
"struct remote_ls_ctx" that is returned from remote_ls().
The handle_remote_ls_ctx() function assumed that the server returns a

(e.g. "http://localhost:8080/repo.git").

assumption under RFC 2518, but under RFC 4918 which obsoletes the older

git-sh-setup: Fix scripts whose PWD is a symlink into a git work-dir
I want directories of my working tree to be linked to from various
paths on my filesystem where third-party components expect them, both
in development and production environments. A build system's install
step could solve this, but I develop scripts and web pages that don't
need to be built. Git's submodule system could solve this, but we
tend to develop, branch, and test those directories all in unison, so
one big repository feels more natural. We prefer to edit and commit
on the symlinked paths, not the canonical ones, and in that setting,
"git pull" fails to find the top-level directory of the repository
while other commands work fine.
"git pull" fails because POSIX shells have a notion of current working
directory that is different from getcwd(). The shell stores this path
in PWD. As a result, "cd ../" can be interpreted differently in a
shell script than chdir("../") in a C program. The shell interprets
"../" by essentially stripping the last textual path component from
PWD, whereas C chdir() follows the ".." link in the current directory
on the filesystem. When PWD is a symlink, these are different
destinations. As a result, Git's C commands find the correct
top-level working tree, and shell scripts do not.
Changes:
* When interpreting a relative upward (../) path in cd_to_toplevel,
prepend the cwd without symlinks, given by /bin/pwd
* Add tests for cd_to_toplevel and "git pull" in a symlinked
directory that failed before this fix, plus contrasting scenarios
that already worked
