If a file is unchanged but stat-dirty, we may erroneously
fail to apply patches, thinking that they conflict with a
dirty working tree.
This patch adds a call to "update-index --refresh". It comes
as late as possible, so that we don't bother with it for
thinks like "git rebase --abort", or when mbox-splitting
fails. However, it does come before we actually start
applying patches, meaning we will only call it once when we
start applying patches (or any time we return to "am" after
having resolved conflicts), and not once per patch.

A request to fetch from a client over smart HTTP protocol is served in
multiple steps. In the first round, the server side shows the set of refs
it has and their values, and the client picks from them and sends "I want
to fetch the history leading to these commits".
When the server tries to respond to this second request, its refs may have
progressed by a push from elsewhere. By design, we do not allow fetching
objects that are not at the tip of an advertised ref, and the server
rejects such a request. The client needs to try again, which is not ideal
especially for a busy server.
Teach upload-pack (which is the workhorse driven by git-daemon and smart
http server interface) that it is OK for a smart-http client to ask for
commits that are not at the tip of any advertised ref, as long as they are
reachable from advertised refs.
filter-branch: Export variable `workdir' for --commit-filter
According to `git help filter-branch':
--commit-filter <command>
...
You can use the _map_ convenience function in this filter,
and other convenience functions, too...
...
However, it turns out that `map' hasn't been usable because it depends
on the variable `workdir', which is not propogated to the environment
of the shell that runs the commit-filter <command> because the
shell is created via a simple-command rather than a compound-command
subshell:
@SHELL_PATH@ -c "$filter_commit" "git commit-tree" \
$(git write-tree) $parentstr < ../message > ../map/$commit ||
die "could not write rewritten commit"
One solution is simply to export `workdir'. However, it seems rather
heavy-handed to export `workdir' to the environments of all commands,
so instead this commit exports `workdir' for only the duration of the
shell command in question:
Many pathnames in a fast-import stream need to be quoted. In
particular:
1. Pathnames at the end of an "M" or "D" line need quoting
if they contain a LF or start with double-quote.
2. Pathnames on a "C" or "R" line need quoting as above,
but also if they contain spaces.
For (1), we weren't quoting at all. For (2), we put
double-quotes around the paths to handle spaces, but ignored
the possibility that they would need further quoting.
This patch checks whether each pathname needs c-style
quoting, and uses it. This is slightly overkill for (1),
which doesn't actually need to quote many characters that
vanilla c-style quoting does. However, it shouldn't hurt, as
any implementation needs to be ready to handle quoted
strings anyway.
In addition to adding a test, we have to tweak a test which
blindly assumed that case (2) would always use
double-quotes, whether it needed to or not.

diff -c/--cc: do not mistake "resolved as deletion" as "use working tree"
The combined diff machinery can be used to compare:
- a merge commit with its parent commits;
- a working-tree file with multiple stages in an unmerged index; or
- a working-tree file with the HEAD and the index.
The internal function combine-diff.c:show_patch_diff() checked if it needs
to read the "result" from the working tree by looking at the object name
of the result --- if it is null_sha1, it read from the working tree.
This mistook a merge that records a deletion as the conflict resolution
as if it is a cue to read from the working tree. Pass this information
explicitly from the caller instead.

If the pager fails to run, git produces no output, e.g.:
$ GIT_PAGER=not-a-command git log
The error reporting fails for two reasons:
(1) start_command: There is a mechanism that detects errors during
execvp introduced in 2b541bf8 (start_command: detect execvp
failures early). The child writes one byte to a pipe only if
execvp fails. The parent waits for either EOF, when the
successful execvp automatically closes the pipe (see
FD_CLOEXEC in fcntl(1)), or it reads a single byte, in which
case it knows that the execvp failed. This mechanism is
incompatible with the workaround introduced in 35ce8622
(pager: Work around window resizing bug in 'less'), which
waits for input from the parent before the exec. Since both
the parent and the child are waiting for input from each
other, that would result in a deadlock. In order to avoid
that, the mechanism is disabled by closing the child_notifier
file descriptor.
(2) finish_command: The parent correctly detects the 127 exit
status from the child, but the error output goes nowhere,
since by that time it is already being redirected to the
child.
No simple solution for (1) comes to mind.
Number (2) can be solved by not sending error output to the pager.
Not redirecting error output to the pager can result in the pager
overwriting error output with standard output, however.
Since there is no reliable way to handle error reporting in the
parent, produce the output in the child instead.

tests: print failed test numbers at the end of the test run
On modern multi-core processors "make test" is often run in multiple jobs.
If one of them fails the test run does stop, but the concurrently running
tests finish their run. It is rather easy to find out which test failed by
doing a "ls -d t/trash*". But that only works when you don't use the "-i"
option to "make test" because you want to get an overview of all failing
tests. In that case all thrash directories are deleted end and the
information which tests failed is lost.
If one or more tests failed, print a list of them before the test summary:
failed test(s): t1000 t6500
fixed 0
success 7638
failed 3
broken 49
total 7723

The "notemodify" fast-import command was introduced in commit a8dd2e7
(fast-import: Add support for importing commit notes, 2009-10-09)
The commit log has slightly different description than the added
documentation. The latter is somewhat confusing. "notemodify" is a
subcommand of "commit" command used to add a note for some commit.
Does this note annotate the commit produced by the "commit" command
or a commit given by it's committish parameter? Which notes tree
does it write notes to?
The exact meaning could be deduced with old description and some
notes machinery knowledge. But let's make it more obvious. This
command is used in a context like "commit refs/notes/test" to
add or rewrite an annotation for a committish parameter. So the
advised way to add notes in a fast-import stream is:
1) import some commits (optional)
2) prepare a "commit" to the notes tree:
2.1) choose notes ref, committer, log message, etc.
2.2) create annotations with "notemodify", where each can refer to
a commit being annotated via a branch name, import mark reference,
sha1 and other expressions specified in the Documentation.

reset [<commit>] paths...: do not mishandle unmerged paths
Because "diff --cached HEAD" showed an incorrect blob object name on the
LHS of the diff, we ended up updating the index entry with bogus value,
not what we read from the tree.

2008-07-21) introduced get_pwd_cwd() function in order to favor $PWD when
getenv("PWD") and getcwd() refer to the same directory but are different
strings (e.g. the former gives a nicer looking name via a symbolic link to
an uglier looking automounted path). The function tried to determine if
two directories are the same by running stat(2) on both and comparing
ino/dev fields.
Unfortunately, stat() does not fill any ino or dev fields in msysgit. But
there is a telltale: both ino and dev are 0 when they are not filled
correctly, so let's be extra cautious.
This happens to fix a bug in "get-receive-pack working_directory/" when
the GIT_DIR would not be set correctly due to absolute_path(".")

As resolve_ref() returns a static buffer that is local to the function,
the caller needs to be sure that it will not have any other calls to the
function before it uses the returned value, or store it away with a
strdup(). The code used old.path to record which branch it used to be on,
so that it can say between which branches the switch took place in the
reflog, but sometimes it failed to do so.
The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already
use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span
several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse]
does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section
indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that
use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections
for consistency.
Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to
align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which
already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to
the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting
within the document more consistent.
While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with
other commands.

git-submodule.sh: preserve stdin for the command spawned by foreach
The user-supplied command spawned by 'submodule foreach' loses its
connection to the original standard input. Instead, it is connected to the
output of a pipe within the git-submodule script. The user-supplied
command supplied to 'submodule foreach' is spawned within a while loop
which is being piped into. Due to the way shells implement piping output
to a while loop, a subshell is created with its standard input attached to
the output of the pipe. This results in all of the commands executed
within the while loop to have their stdins modified in the same way,
including the user-supplied command.
This can cause a problem if the command requires reading from stdin or if
it changes its behavior based on whether stdin is a tty or not. For
example, this problem was noticed when trying to execute the following:
which printed a message about entering the first submodule and produced no
further output and exited with a status of zero. In this case, shortlog
detected that it was not connected to a tty, and since no revision was
supplied as an argument, it attempted to read the list of revisions from
standard input. Instead, it slurped up the list of submodules that was
being piped to the enclosing while loop and caused that loop to end early
without processing the remaining submodules.
Work around this behavior by saving the original standard input file
descriptor before the while loop, and restoring it when spawning the
user-supplied command.
This fixes the tests in t7407.

When "git submodule add $path" is run to add a subdirectory $path to the
superproject, and $path is already the top of the working tree of the
submodule repository, the command created submodule.$path.url entry in the
configuration file in the superproject. However, when adding a repository
$URL that is outside the respository of the superproject to $path that
does not exist (yet) with "git submodule add $URL $path", the command
forgot to set it up.
The user is expressing the interest in the submodule and wants to keep a
checkout, the "submodule add" command should consistently set up the
submodule.$path.url entry in either case.
As a result "git submodule init" can't simply skip the initialization of
those submodules for which it finds an url entry in the git./config
anymore. That lead to problems when adding a submodule (which now sets the
url), add the "update" setting to .gitmodules and expect init to copy that
into .git/config like it is done in t7406. So change init to only then
copy the "url" and "update" entries when they don't exist yet in the
.git/config and do nothing otherwise.

directories, 2010-10-08) attempted to fix a bug where "git submodule sync"
command does not update the URL if the current superproject does not have
a checkout of the submodule.
However, it did so by unconditionally registering submodule.$name.url to
every submodule in the project, even the ones that the user has never
showed interest in at all by running 'git submodule init' command. This
caused subsequent 'git submodule update' to start cloning/updating submodules
that are not interesting to the user at all.
Update the code so that the URL is updated from the .gitmodules file only
for submodules that already have submodule.$name.url entries, i.e. the
ones the user has showed interested in having a checkout.
