When writing conflict hunks in ‘diff3 -m’ format, also add a label to
the common ancestor. Especially in a cherry-pick, it is not immediately
obvious without such a label what the common ancestor represents.
git rerere does not have trouble parsing the new output and its preimage
ids are unchanged since it includes its own code for recreating conflict
hunks. No other code in git parses conflict hunks.

When reverting a commit, the commit being merged is not the commit
to revert itself but its parent. Add “parent of” to the conflict
hunk label to make this more clear.
The conflict hunk labels are all pieces of a single string written in
the new get_message() function. Avoid some complication by using
mempcpy to advance a pointer as the result is written.
Also free the corresponding temporary buffer (it was leaked before).
This is not important because it is a small one-time allocation. It
would become a memory leak if unnoticed when libifying revert.
This patch uses calls to strlen() instead of integer constants in some
places. GCC will compute the length at compile time; I am not sure
about other compilers, but this is not performance-critical anyway.

checkout -m --conflict=diff3: add a label for ancestor
git checkout --merge --conflict=diff3 can be used to present conflict
hunks including text from the common ancestor. The added information
is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and merge tools tend to
understand it because it is very similar to what ‘diff3 -m’ produces.
Unlike current git, diff3 -m includes a label for the merge base on
the ||||||| line, and unfortunately, some tools cannot parse the
conflict hunks without it. Humans can benefit from a cue when
learning to interpreting the format, too. Mark the start of the text
from the old branch with a label based on the branch’s name.
git rerere does not have trouble parsing this output and its preimage
ids are unchanged since it includes its own code for recreating

merge_trees(): add ancestor label parameter for diff3-style output
Commands using the merge_trees() machinery will present conflict hunks
in output something like what ‘diff3 -m’ produces if the
merge.conflictstyle configuration option is set to diff3. The output
lacks the name of the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output,
and tools can misparse the conflict hunks without it. Add a new
o->ancestor parameter to merge_trees() for use as a label for the
ancestor in conflict hunks.
If o->ancestor is NULL, the output format is as before. All callers
pass NULL for now.
If o->ancestor is non-NULL and both branches renamed the base file
to the same name, that name is included in the conflict hunk labels.
Even if o->ancestor is NULL I think this would be a good change, but
this patch only does it in the non-NULL case to ensure the output
format does not change where it might matter.

checkout --conflict=diff3: add a label for ancestor
git checkout --conflict=diff3 can be used to present conflicts hunks
including text from the common ancestor:

The added information is helpful for resolving a merge by hand, and
merge tools can usually understand it without trouble because it looks
like output from ‘diff3 -m’.
diff3 includes a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line, and it
seems some tools (for example, Emacs 22’s smerge-mode) cannot parse
conflict hunks without such a label. Humans could use help in
interpreting the output, too. So change the marker for the start of the
text from the common ancestor to include the label “base”.
git rerere’s conflict identifiers are not affected: to parse conflict
hunks, rerere looks for whitespace after the ||||||| marker rather
than a newline, and to compute preimage ids, rerere has its own code
for creating conflict hunks. No other code in git tries to parse
conflict hunks.

include a label for the merge base on the ||||||| line of the output,

Add a new ancestor_label parameter to ll_merge() to give callers the

format is unchanged. All callers pass NULL for now.

git merge-file --diff3 can be used to present conflicts hunks

xdl_merge(): move file1 and file2 labels to xmparam structure
The labels for the three participants in a potential conflict are all
optional arguments for the xdiff merge routine; if they are NULL, then
xdl_merge() can cope by omitting the labels from its output. Move
them to the xmparam structure to allow new callers to save some
keystrokes where they are not needed.
This also has the virtue of making the xdiff merge interface more
similar to merge_trees, which might make it easier to learn.

GNU make’s target-specific variables facility has one weird facet: any
variables set for a given target apply to all of its dependencies,
too. For example, when running “make exec_cmd.o”, since exec_cmd.o
depends on GIT-CFLAGS, the variable assignment in
applies when refreshing GIT-CFLAGS, and the extra options get included
in the tracked compiler flags. If an object file like this is the
first target built, GIT-CFLAGS will appear to be out of date,
resulting in useless rebuilds and the dreaded “new build flags or
prefix” message.
This does not happen with every build because GIT-CFLAGS is only
refreshed once in a given “make” run, and usually the first target
does not set any variables. When this problem does rear its head, it
is very annoying.
So put target-specific flags in a separate EXTRA_CPPFLAGS variable
that is not included in $(TRACK_CFLAGS).

As we walk the directory tree, if we see an ignored path, we
want to add it to the ignored list only if it matches any
pathspec that we were given. We used to check for the
pathspec to appear explicitly. E.g., if we see "subdir/file"
and it is excluded, we check to see if we have "subdir/file"
in our pathspec.
However, this interacts badly with the optimization to avoid
recursing into ignored subdirectories. If "subdir" as a
whole is ignored, then we never recurse, and consider only
whether "subdir" itself is in our pathspec. It would not
match a pathspec of "subdir/file" explicitly, even though it
is the reason that subdir/file would be excluded.
This manifests itself to the user as "git add subdir/file"
failing to correctly note that the pathspec was ignored.
This patch extends the in_pathspec logic to include prefix
directory case.

for_each_recent_reflog_ent(): use strbuf, fix offset handling
As Vladimir reported, "git log -g refs/stash" surprisingly showed the reflog
of HEAD if the message in the reflog file was too long. To fix this, convert
for_each_recent_reflog_ent() to use strbuf_getwholeline() instead of fgets(),
for safety and to avoid any size limits for reflog entries.
Also reverse the logic of the part of the function that only looks at file
tails. It used to close the file if fgets() succeeded. The following
fgets() call in the while loop was likely to fail in this case, too, so
passing an offset to for_each_recent_reflog_ent() never worked. Change it to
error out if strbuf_getwholeline() fails instead.
