doc: camelCase the config variables to improve readability
References to multi-word configuration variable names in our
documentation must consistently use camelCase to highlight where
the word boundaries are, even though these are treated case
insensitively.
Fix a few places that spell them in all lowercase, which makes
them harder to read.

"git archive" did not work well with pathspecs and the

"git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a

endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git()
that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index
entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply"
is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all.

The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who

vcs-svn: move remaining repo_tree functions to fast_export.h
These used to be for manipulating the in-memory repo_tree structure,
but nowadays they are convenience wrappers to handle a few git-vs-svn
mismatches:
1. Git does not track empty directories but Subversion does. When
looking up a path in git that Subversion thinks exists and finding
nothing, we can safely assume that the path represents a
directory. This is needed when a later Subversion revision
modifies that directory.
2. Subversion allows deleting a file by copying. In Git fast-import
we have to handle that more explicitly as a deletion.
These are details of the tool's interaction with git fast-import.
Move them to fast_export.c, where other such details are handled.
This way the function names do not start with a repo_ prefix that
would clash with the repository object introduced in
v2.14.0-rc0~38^2~16 (repository: introduce the repository object,

If the `git merge` process is killed while waiting for the editor to

prepare_to_commit() cannot be reached in the non-squash case:
It is called by merge_trivial() and finish_automerge() only, but the
calls to the latter are somewhat hard to track:
If option_commit is not set, the code in cmd_merge() uses a fake
conflict return code (ret=1) to avoid writing the tree, which also
avoids setting automerge_was_ok (just as in the proper ret==1 case), so
that finish_automerge() is not called.
To ensure that no code change breaks that assumption, safe-guard
prepare_to_commit() by a BUG() statement.

apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip diff and apply
When a file had been commited with CRLF but now .gitattributes say
"* text=auto" (or core.autocrlf is true), the following does not
roundtrip, `git apply` fails:
Before applying the patch, the file from working tree is converted
into the index format (clean filter, CRLF conversion, ...). Here,
when commited with CRLF, the line endings should not be converted.
Note that `git apply --index` or `git apply --cache` doesn't call
convert_to_git() because the source material is already in index
format.
Analyze the patch if there is a) any context line with CRLF, or b)
if any line with CRLF is to be removed. In this case the patch file
`patch` has mixed line endings, for a) it looks like this:
If `git apply` detects that the patch itself has CRLF, (look at the
line " a\r" or "-a\r" above), the new flag crlf_in_old is set in
"struct patch" and two things will happen:
- read_old_data() will not convert CRLF into LF by calling
convert_to_git(..., SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF);
- The WS_CR_AT_EOL bit is set in the "white space rule",
CRLF are no longer treated as white space.
While at there, make it clear that read_old_data() in apply.c knows
what it wants convert_to_git() to do with respect to CRLF. In fact,
this codepath is about applying a patch to a file in the filesystem,
which may not exist in the index, or may exist but may not match
what is recorded in the index, or in the extreme case, we may not
even be in a Git repository. If convert_to_git() peeked at the
index while doing its work, it *would* be a bug.
Pass NULL instead of &the_index to convert_to_git() to make sure we
catch future bugs to clarify this.
Update the test in t4124: split one test case into 3:
- Detect the " a\r" line in the patch
- Detect the "-a\r" line in the patch
- Use LF in repo and CLRF in the worktree.

Documentation: use proper wording for ref format strings
Various commands list refs and allow to use a format string for the
output that interpolates from the ref as well as the object it points
at (for-each-ref; branch and tag in list mode).
Currently, the documentation talks about interpolating from the object.
This is confusing because a ref points to an object but not vice versa,
so the object cannot possible know %(refname), for example. Thus, this is

sum(1) is a command for calculating checksums of the contents of files.
It was part of early editions of Unix ("Research Unix", 1972/1973, [1]).
cksum(1) appeared in 4.4BSD (1993) as a replacement [2], and became part
of POSIX.1-2008 [3]. OpenBSD 5.6 (2014) removed sum(1).
We only use sum(1) in t1002 to check for changes in three files. On
MinGW we use md5sum(1) instead. We could switch to the standard command
cksum(1) for all platforms; MinGW comes with GNU coreutils now, which
provides sum(1), cksum(1) and md5sum(1). Use our standard method for
checking for file changes instead: test_cmp.
It's more convenient because it shows differences nicely, it's faster on
MinGW because we have a special implementation there based only on
shell-internal commands, it's simpler as it allows us to avoid stripping
out unnecessary entries from the checksum file using grep(1), and it's
more consistent with the rest of the test suite.
We already compare changed files with their expected new contents using
diff(1), so we don't need to check with "test_must_fail test_cmp" if
they differ from their original state. A later patch could convert the
direct diff(1) calls to test_cmp as well.
With all sum(1) calls gone, remove the MinGW-specific implementation
from test-lib.sh as well.

In 1a812f3a70 (hashcmp(): inline memcmp() by hand to
optimize, 2011-04-28), it was reported that an open-coded
loop outperformed memcmp() for comparing sha1s.
Discussion[1] a few years later in 2013 showed that this
depends on your libc's version of memcmp(). In particular,
glibc 2.13 optimized their memcmp around 2011. Here are
current timings with glibc 2.24 (best-of-five, on
linux.git):
[before this patch, open-coded]
$ time git rev-list --objects --all
real 0m35.357s
user 0m35.016s
sys 0m0.340s
[after this patch, memcmp]
real 0m32.930s
user 0m32.630s
sys 0m0.300s
Now that we've had 6 years for that version of glibc to
make its way onto people's machines, it's worth revisiting
our benchmarks and switching to memcmp().
It may be that there are other non-glibc systems where
memcmp() isn't as well optimized. But since our single data
point in favor of open-coding was on a now-ancient glibc, we
should probably assume the system memcmp is good unless
proven otherwise. We may end up with a SLOW_MEMCMP Makefile
knob, but we can hold off on that until we actually find
such a system in practice.

If there are no matching entries then lo and hi will have the same

following entry (which has a non-matching first byte, so won't cause any
