When applying a patch that was based on an older release with "am -3", I
often wonder changes to which files need to be reviewed with extra care to
spot mismerges, but there is no good indication.
The paths that needed 3-way fallback can easily be obtained by comparing
the synthesized (partial) base tree and the current HEAD and noticing only
additions and modifications (removals only show the sparseness of the fake
ancestor tree, which is not useful information at all). List them in the
usual --name-status format.

Each ref structure contains a "nonfastforward" field which
is set during push to show whether the ref rewound history.
Originally this was a single bit, but it was changed in f25950f (push: Provide situational hints for non-fast-forward
errors) to an enum differentiating a non-ff of the current
branch versus another branch.
However, we never actually set the member according to the
enum values, nor did we ever read it expecting anything but
a boolean value. But we did use the side effect of declaring
the enum constants to store those values in a totally
different integer variable. The code as-is isn't buggy, but
the enum declaration inside "struct ref" is somewhat
misleading.
Let's convert nonfastforward back into a single bit, and
then define the NON_FF_* constants closer to where they
would be used (they are returned via the "int *nonfastforward"
parameter to transport_push, so we can define them there).

Lots of code in Git's configure.ac doesn't follow the typical formatting,
idioms and best practices for Autoconf input files. Improve the situation.
There are probably many more similar improvements to be done, but trying
to clump all of them in a single change would make it unreviewable, so we
content ourselves with a partial improvement.
This change is just cosmetic, and should cause no semantic change.
The most relevant of the changes introduced by this patch are:
- Do not add trailing '\' characters for line continuation where they
are not truly needed.
- In several (but not all) macro calls, properly quote the arguments.
- Few cosmetic changes in spacing and comments.

Documentation: improve description of GIT_EDITOR and preference order
Previously GIT_EDITOR was not listed in git(1) "Environment Variables" section,
which could be very confusing to users. Include it in "other" subsection along
with a link to git-var(1), since that is the page that fully describes all
places where editor can be set and also their preference order.
Also, git-var(1) did not say that hardcoded fallback 'vi' may have been changed
at build time. A user could be puzzled if 'nano' pops up even when none of the
mentioned environment vars or config.editor are set. Clarify this.
Ideally, the build system should be changed to reflect the chosen fallback

merge-recursive: don't detect renames of empty files
Merge-recursive detects renames so that if one side modifies
"foo" and the other side moves it to "bar", the modification
is applied to "bar". However, our rename detection is based
on content analysis, it can be wrong (i.e., two files were
not intended as a rename, but just happen to have the same
or similar content).
This is quite rare if the files actually contain content,
since two unrelated files are unlikely to have exactly the
same content. However, empty files present a problem, in
that there is nothing to analyze. An uninteresting
placeholder file with zero bytes may or may not be related
to a placeholder file with another name.
The result is that adding content to an empty file may cause
confusion if the other side of a merge removed it; your
content may end up in another random placeholder file that
was added.
Let's err on the side of caution and not consider empty
files as renames. This will cause a modify/delete conflict
on the merge, which will let the user sort it out
themselves.

teach diffcore-rename to optionally ignore empty content
Our rename detection is a heuristic, matching pairs of
removed and added files with similar or identical content.
It's unlikely to be wrong when there is actual content to
compare, and we already take care not to do inexact rename
detection when there is not enough content to produce good
results.
However, we always do exact rename detection, even when the
blob is tiny or empty. It's easy to get false positives with
an empty blob, simply because it is an obvious content to
use as a boilerplate (e.g., when telling git that an empty
directory is worth tracking via an empty .gitignore).
This patch lets callers specify whether or not they are
interested in using empty files as rename sources and
destinations. The default is "yes", keeping the original
behavior. It works by detecting the empty-blob sha1 for
rename sources and destinations.
One more flexible alternative would be to allow the caller
to specify a minimum size for a blob to be "interesting" for
rename detection. But that would catch small boilerplate
files, not large ones (e.g., if you had the GPL COPYING file
in many directories).
A better alternative would be to allow a "-rename"
gitattribute to allow boilerplate files to be marked as
such. I'll leave the complexity of that solution until such
time as somebody actually wants it. The complaints we've
seen so far revolve around empty files, so let's start with
the simple thing.

gitk: Add menu items for comparing a commit with the marked commit
Sometimes one wants to see the different between two commits that are
a long distance apart in the graph display. This is difficult to do
with the "Diff this -> selected" and "Diff selected -> this" menu
items because the need to maintain the selection means that one can't
use the find facilities or the reference list window to navigate from
one to the other.
This provides an alternative using the mark. Having found one commit,
one marks it with the "Mark this commit" menu item, then navigates to
the other commit and uses the new "Diff this -> marked commit" and/or
"Diff marked commit -> this" menu items.
Even though 1.7.9.x series does not open the editor by default
when merging in general, it does do so in one occassion: when
merging an annotated tag. And worse yet, there is no good way
for older scripts to decline this.

push: Provide situational hints for non-fast-forward errors
Pushing a non-fast-forward update to a remote repository will result in
an error, but the hint text doesn't provide the correct resolution in
every case. Give better resolution advice in three push scenarios:
1) If you push your current branch and it triggers a non-fast-forward
error, you should merge remote changes with 'git pull' before pushing
again.
2) If you push to a shared repository others push to, and your local
tracking branches are not kept up to date, the 'matching refs' default
will generate non-fast-forward errors on outdated branches. If this is
your workflow, the 'matching refs' default is not for you. Consider
setting the 'push.default' configuration variable to 'current' or
'upstream' to ensure only your current branch is pushed.
3) If you explicitly specify a ref that is not your current branch or
push matching branches with ':', you will generate a non-fast-forward
error if any pushed branch tip is out of date. You should checkout the
offending branch and merge remote changes before pushing again.
Teach transport.c to recognize these scenarios and configure push.c
to hint for them. If 'git push's default behavior changes or we
discover more scenarios, extension is easy. Standardize on the
advice API and add three new advice variables, 'pushNonFFCurrent',
'pushNonFFDefault', and 'pushNonFFMatching'. Setting any of these
to 'false' will disable their affiliated advice. Setting
'pushNonFastForward' to false will disable all three, thus preserving the
config option for users who already set it, but guaranteeing new
users won't disable push advice accidentally.

On large repositories such as the Linux kernel, it can take quite a
noticeable time (several seconds) for gitk to resolve short SHA1 IDs
to their long form. This speeds up the process by maintaining lists
of IDs indexed by the first 4 characters of the SHA1 ID, speeding up
the search by a factor of 65536 on large repositories.
gitk: Use symbolic font names "sans" and "monospace" when available
The following only concerns systems using X and the client-side font
rendering framework from freedesktop.org. Windows and Mac OS X are
not affected.
Starting with version 8.5, Tk uses freetype and fontconfig by default
to render fonts on platforms that support it. Gitk currently defaults
to the font Helvetica for the interface and Courier for diffs, and
both unfortunately look rather bad on screen in the default
configuration on many Linux distros with anti-aliasing and poor
hinting.
It is better to default to "sans" and "monospace", which are mapped by
fontconfig to some appropriate font of the sysadmin and user's
choosing (typically Bitstream Vera Sans and Mono). The result looks
more sensible and it makes gitk feel like a well-behaved software
citizen since its fonts match other native apps.
This patch does not change the appearance of gitk for users that have
already run it, since gitk uses the remembered UI and diff font names
from ~/.gitk.

The code to validate the history connectivity between old refs and new
refs used by fetch and receive-pack, introduced in 1.7.8, was grossly
inefficient and unnecessarily tried to re-validate integrity of individual
objects. This essentially reverts that performance regression.
Merge "two fixes for fast-import's 'ls' command" from Jonathan
Andrew Sayers noticed that the svn-fe | git fast-import pipeline
mishandles a subversion history that copies the root directory to a
sub-directory (e.g. doing `svn cp . trunk` to standardise your
layout). As David Barr explained, the bug arises when the following
command is sent to git fast-import:
'ls' SP ':1' SP LF
Instead of reading back what is at the root of r1, it unconditionally
reports the path as missing.
After sleeping on it, here are two patches for 'maint'. One plugs a
memory leak. The other ensures that trying to pass an empty path to
the 'ls' command results in an error message that can help the
frontend author instead of the silently broken conversion Andrew
found.
Then we can carefully add 'ls ""' support in 1.7.11.
* commit 'refs/pull-request-tags/jn/maint-fast-import-empty-ls':
fast-import: don't allow 'ls' of path with empty components
fast-import: leakfix for 'ls' of dirty trees
* th/git-diffall:
contrib/diffall: fix cleanup trap on Windows
contrib/diffall: eliminate duplicate while loops
contrib/diffall: eliminate use of tar
contrib/diffall: create tmp dirs without mktemp
contrib/diffall: comment actual reason for 'cdup'
Git 1.7.8 introduced an object and history re-validation step after
"fetch" or "push" causes new history to be added to a receiving
repository. This is to protect a malicious server or pushing client from
corrupting the repository by taking advantage of an existing corrupt
object that is unconnected to existing history.
But this check is way over-pessimistic. During "fetch" or "receive-pack"
(the server side of "push"), unpack-objects and index-pack already
validate individual objects that are received, and the only thing we would
want to catch are corrupted objects that already happen to exist in our
repository but are not referenced from our refs. Such objects must have
been written by an earlier run of our codepaths that write out loose
objects or packfiles, and they must have done the validation of individual
objects when they did so. The only thing left to worry about is the
connectivity integrity, which can be checked with "rev-list --objects",
which is much cheaper. We have been paying the 5x to 8x runtime overhead
the --verify-objects often adds for no real gain.
Revert check_everything_connected() not to use this over-pessimistic
check.
Credit goes to Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy, who originally identified the
performance regression and endured multiple rounds of reviews to fix it.
clean: preserve nested git worktree in subdirectories
remove_dir_recursively() has a check to avoid removing the directory it
was asked to remove without recursing into it and report success when the
directory is the top level of a working tree of a nested git repository,
to protect such a repository from "clean -f" (without double -f). If a
working tree of a nested git repository is in a subdirectory of a toplevel
project, however, this protection did not apply by mistake; we forgot to
pass the REMOVE_DIR_KEEP_NESTED_GIT down to the recursive removal
codepath.
This requires us to also teach the higher level not to remove the
directory it is asked to remove, when the recursed invocation did not
remove the directory it was asked to remove due to a nested git
repository, as it is not an error to leave the parent directories of such
a nested repository.
notes-merge: Don't remove .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE; it may be the user's cwd
When a manual notes merge is committed or aborted, we need to remove the
temporary worktree at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. However, removing the
entire directory is not good if the user ran the 'git notes merge
--commit/--abort' from within that directory. On Windows, the directory
removal would simply fail, while on POSIX systems, users would suddenly
find themselves in an invalid current directory.
Therefore, instead of deleting the entire directory, we delete everything
_within_ the directory, and leave the (empty) directory in place.
This would cause a subsequent notes merge to abort, complaining about a
previous - unfinished - notes merge (due to the presence of
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE), so we also need to adjust this check to only
trigger when .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE is non-empty.
Finally, adjust the t3310 manual notes merge testcases to correctly handle
the existence of an empty .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory.

notes-merge: use opendir/readdir instead of using read_directory()
notes_merge_commit() only needs to list all entries (non-recursively)
under a directory, which can be easily accomplished with
opendir/readdir and would be more lightweight than read_directory().
read_directory() is designed to list paths inside a working
directory. Using it outside of its scope may lead to undesired effects.
Apparently, one of the undesired effects of read_directory() is that it
doesn't deal with being given absolute paths. This creates problems for
notes_merge_commit() when git_path() returns an absolute path, which
happens when the current working directory is in a subdirectory of the
.git directory.

propagates to the rest of the diff runs and in particular prevents
further attribute lookups.

Often the first one gives the owner of the history being pulled, but
his last pull from his sublieutenants may have been a fast-forward,
in which case the first one would not be. The latter rule will
count the integrator of the history, so together it might be a
reasonable heuristics.
There are two special cases:
- The "author" credit is omitted when the series is written solely
by the same author who is making the merge. The name can be seen
on the "Author" line of the "git log" output to view the log
message anyway.
- The "lieutenant" credit is omitted when there is only one key
committer in the merged branch and it is the committer who is
making the merge. Typically this applies to the case where the
developer merges his own branch.
test: use numstat instead of diffstat in binary-diff test
git's --stat output is intended for humans and since v1.7.9.2~13
(2012-02-01) varies by locale. The tests in this script using "apply
--stat" are meant to check two things:
- how binary file changes are accounted for and printed in
git's diffstat format
- that "git apply" can parse the various forms of binary diff
Split these two kinds of check into separate tests, and use --numstat
instead of --stat in the latter. This way, we lose less test coverage
when git is being run without writing its output in the C locale (for
example because GETTEXT_POISON is enabled) and there are fewer tests
to change if the --stat output needs to be tweaked again.
While at it, use commands separated by && that read and write to
temporary files in place of pipelines so segfaults and other failures
in the upstream of the processing pipeline don't get hidden.

test: use --numstat instead of --stat in "git stash show" tests
git's diff --stat output is intended for human consumption and
since v1.7.9.2~13 (2012-02-01) varies by locale. Add a test checking
that git stash show defaults to --stat and tweak the rest of the
"stash show" tests that showed a diffstat to use numstat.
This way, there are fewer tests to tweak if the diffstat format
changes again. This also improves test coverage when running tests
with git configured not to write its output in the C locale (e.g.,
via GETTEXT_POISON=Yes).

test: test cherry-pick functionality and output separately
Since v1.7.3-rc0~26^2~9 (revert: report success when using option
--strategy, 2010-07-14), the cherry-pick-many-commits test checks the
format of output written to the terminal during a cherry-pick sequence
in addition to the functionality. There is no reason those have to
be checked in the same test, though, and it has some downsides:
- when progress output is broken, the test result does not convey
whether the functionality was also broken or not
- it is not immediately obvious when reading that these checks are
meant to prevent regressions in details of the output format and
are not just a roundabout way to check functional details like the
number of commits produced
- there is a temptation to include the same kind of output checking
for every new cherry-pick test, which would make future changes
to the output unnecessarily difficult
Put the tests from v1.7.3-rc0~26^2~9 in separate assertions, following
the principle "test one feature at a time".

This is one of the early tests, so it uses a style that by modern
standards can be hard to read. Tweak it to:
- clearly declare what assertion each test is designed to check
- mark tests that create state later tests will depend on with the
word "setup" so people writing or running tests know the others
can be skipped or reordered safely
- put commands that populate a file with expected output inside
the corresponding test stanza, so it is easier to see by eye
where each test begins and ends
- instead of pipelines, use commands that read and write a
temporary file, so bugs causing commands to segfault or produce
the wrong exit status can be caught.
More cosmetic changes:
- put the opening quote starting each test on the same line as the
test_expect_* invocation, and indent the commands in each test
with a single tab
- end the test early if the underlying filesystem cannot
accomodate the filenames we use, instead of marking all tests
with the same TABS_IN_FILENAMES prerequisite.

test: use numstat instead of diffstat in funny-names test
This test script checks that git's plumbing commands quote filenames
with special characters like space, tab, and double-quote
appropriately in their input and output.
Since commit v1.7.9.2~13 (Use correct grammar in diffstat summary
line, 2012-02-01), the final "1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)" line
from diffstats is translatable, meaning tests that rely on exact "git
apply --stat" output have to be skipped when git is not configured to
produce output in the C locale (for example, when GETTEXT_POISON is
enabled). So:
- Tweak the three "git apply --stat" tests that check "git apply"'s
input parsing to use --numstat instead.
--numstat output is more reliable, does not vary with locale, and
is itself easier to parse. These tests are mainly about how "git
apply" parses its input so this should not result in much loss of
coverage.
- Add a new "apply --stat" test to check the quoting in --stat output
format.
This wins back a little of the test coverage lost with the patch
"test: use test_i18ncmp to check --stat output" when GETTEXT_POISON is
enabled.

test: use test_i18ncmp when checking --stat output
Ever since v1.7.9.2~13 (2012-02-01), git's diffstat-style summary line
produced by "git apply --stat", "git diff --stat", and "git commit"
varies by locale, producing test failures when GETTEXT_POISON is set.

It was unclear what a test in t0204 wanted to check; it turns out
that it was only to observe an undefined behaviour of the system,
and did not anticipate one kind of reasonable error behaviour.

When "git config" diagnoses an error in a configuration file and
shows the line number for the offending line, it miscounted if the
error was at the end of line.

We have had these options as harmless no-op for more than 3 years without
officially deprecating them. Let's announce the deprecation and start
warning against their use, but without failing the command just not yet,
so that we can later repurpose the option if we want to in the future.
