In f924b52 (Windows: add pthread_sigmask() that does nothing,

building Git in Git for Windows' SDK because pthread_sigmask() is
already a no-op there, #define'd in the pthread_signal.h header in
/mingw64/x86_64-w64-mingw32/include/.
Let's wrap the definition of pthread_sigmask() in a guard that skips
it when compiling with MinGW-w64' headers.

A previous change introduced a call to pthread_sigmask() in order to block
SIGPIPE in a thread. Since there are no signal facilities on Windows that
are similar to POSIX signals, just ignore the request to block the signal.
In the particular case, the effect of blocking SIGPIPE on POSIX is that
write() calls return EPIPE when the reader closes the pipe. This is how
write() behaves on Windows.

In commit 9ff18fa (fetch-pack: ignore SIGPIPE in sideband
demuxer, 2016-02-24), we started using sigchain_push() to
ignore SIGPIPE in the async demuxer thread. However, this is
rather clumsy, as it ignores SIGPIPE for the entire process,
including the main thread. At the time we didn't have any
per-thread signal support, but we now we do. Let's use it.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
If we get an error from pack-objects, we may exit
send_pack() early, before reading the server's status
response. In such a case, we may racily see SIGPIPE from our
async demuxer (which is trying to write that status back to
us), and we'd prefer to continue pushing the error up the
call stack, rather than taking down the whole process with
signal death.
This is safe to do because our demuxer just calls
recv_sideband, whose data writes are all done with
write_or_die(), which will notice SIGPIPE.
We do also write sideband 2 to stderr, and we would no
longer die on SIGPIPE there (if it were piped in the first
place, and if the piped program went away). But that's
probably a good thing, as it likewise should not abort the
push process at all (neither immediately by signal, nor
eventually by reporting failure back to the main thread).

run-command: teach async threads to ignore SIGPIPE
Async processes can be implemented as separate forked
processes, or as threads (depending on the NO_PTHREADS
setting). In the latter case, if an async thread gets
SIGPIPE, it takes down the whole process. This is obviously
bad if the main process was not otherwise going to die, but
even if we were going to die, it means the main process does
not have a chance to report a useful error message.
There's also the small matter that forked async processes
will not take the main process down on a signal, meaning git
will behave differently depending on the NO_PTHREADS
setting.
This patch fixes it by adding a new flag to "struct async"
to block SIGPIPE just in the async thread. In theory, this
should always be on (which makes async threads behave more
like async processes), but we would first want to make sure
that each async process we spawn is careful about checking
return codes from write() and would not spew endlessly into
a dead pipe. So let's start with it as optional, and we can
enable it for specific sites in future patches.
The natural name for this option would be "ignore_sigpipe",
since that's what it does for the threaded case. But since
that name might imply that we are ignoring it in all cases
(including the separate-process one), let's call it
"isolate_sigpipe". What we are really asking for is
isolation. I.e., not to have our main process taken down by
signals spawned by the async process. How that is
implemented is up to the run-command code.

send-pack: close demux pipe before finishing async process
This fixes a deadlock on the client side when pushing a
large number of refs from a corrupted repo. There's a
reproduction script below, but let's start with a
human-readable explanation.
The client side of a push goes something like this:
1. Start an async process to demux sideband coming from
the server.
2. Run pack-objects to send the actual pack, and wait for
its status via finish_command().
3. If pack-objects failed, abort immediately.
4. If pack-objects succeeded, read the per-ref status from
the server, which is actually coming over a pipe from
the demux process started in step 1.
We run finish_async() to wait for and clean up the demux
process in two places. In step 3, if we see an error, we
want it to end early. And after step 4, it should be done
writing any data and we are just cleaning it up.
Let's focus on the error case first. We hand the output
descriptor to the server over to pack-objects. So by the
time it has returned an error to us, it has closed the
descriptor and the server has gotten EOF. The server will
mark all refs as failed with "unpacker error" and send us
back the status for each (followed by EOF).
This status goes to the demuxer thread, which relays it over
a pipe to the main thread. But the main thread never even
tries reading the status. It's trying to bail because of the
pack-objects error, and is waiting for the demuxer thread to
finish. If there are a small number of refs, that's OK; the
demuxer thread writes into the pipe buffer, sees EOF from
the server, and quits. But if there are a large number of
refs, it may block on write() back to the main thread,
leading to a deadlock (the main thread is waiting for the
demuxer to finish, the demuxer is waiting for the main
thread to read).
We can break this deadlock by closing the pipe between the
demuxer and the main thread before calling finish_async().
Then the demuxer gets a write() error and exits.
The non-error case usually just works, because we will have
read all of the data from the other side. We do close
demux.out already, but we only do so _after_ calling
finish_async(). This is OK because there shouldn't be any
more data coming from the server. But technically we've only
read to a flush packet, and a broken or malicious server
could be sending more cruft. In such a case, we would hit
the same deadlock. Closing the pipe first doesn't affect the
normal case, and means that for a cruft-sending server,
we'll notice a write() error rather than deadlocking.
Note that when write() sees this error, we'll actually
deliver SIGPIPE to the thread, which will take down the
whole process (unless we're compiled with NO_PTHREADS). This
isn't ideal, but it's an improvement over the status quo,
which is deadlocking. And SIGPIPE handling in async threads
is a bigger problem that we can deal with separately.
A simple reproduction for the error case is below. It's
technically racy (we could exit the main process and take
down the async thread with us before it even reads the
status), though in practice it seems to fail pretty
consistently.
git init repo &&
cd repo &&
# make some commits; we need two so we can simulate corruption
# in the history later.
git commit --allow-empty -m one &&
one=$(git rev-parse HEAD) &&
git commit --allow-empty -m two &&
two=$(git rev-parse HEAD) &&
# now make a ton of refs; our goal here is to overflow the pipe buffer
# when reporting the ref status, which will cause the demuxer to block
# on write()

When directories are moved using `git mv` all files in the directory

submodules however need to update their link to the git directory as

The test prepares a sample file "dir/two" with a single incomplete
line in it with "printf", and also prepares a small helper script
"diff" to create a file with a single incomplete line in it, again
with "printf". The output from the latter is compared with an
expected output, again prepared with "printf" hence lacking the
final LF. There is no reason for this test to be using files with
an incomplete line at the end, and these look more like a mistake
of not using
printf "%s\n" "string to be written"
and using
printf "string to be written"
Depending on what would be in $GIT_PREFIX, using the latter form
could be a bug waiting to happen. Correct them.
Also, the test uses hardcoded #!/bin/sh to create a small helper
script. For a small task like what the generated script does, it
does not matter too much in that what appears as /bin/sh would not
be _so_ broken, but while we are at it, use write_script instead,
which happens to make the result easier to read by reducing need
of one level of quoting.
The recent cleanup in b7cbbff switched t5532's use of
backticks to $(). This matches our normal shell style, which
is good. But it also breaks the test on Solaris, where
/bin/sh does not understand $().
Our normal shell style assumes a modern-ish shell which
knows about $(). However, some tests create small helper
scripts and just write "#!/bin/sh" into them. These scripts
either need to go back to using backticks, or they need to
respect $SHELL_PATH. The easiest way to do the latter is to
use write_script.
While we're at it, let's also stick the script creation
inside a test_expect block (our usual style), and split the
perl snippet into its own script (to prevent quoting
madness).

from this change and corrected it with 25206778 (commit: don't start

However, "we got a message with -m, even though an empty one, so we
shouldn't be launching an editor" was not the only breakage.
* "git commit --amend -m '' --allow-empty", even though it looks
strange, is a valid request to amend the commit to have no

setup.c: do not feed NULL to "%.*s" even with precision 0
A recent update 75faa45a (replace trivial malloc + sprintf / strcpy
calls with xstrfmt, 2015-09-24) rewrote
prepare an empty buffer
if (len)
append the first len bytes of "prefix" to the buffer
append "path" to the buffer
that computed "path", optionally prefixed by "prefix", into
xstrfmt("%.*s%s", len, prefix, path);
However, passing a NULL pointer to the printf(3) family of functions
to format it with %s conversion, even with the precision set to 0,
i.e.
xstrfmt("%.*s", 0, NULL)
yields undefined results, at least on some platforms.
Avoid this problem by substituting prefix with "" when len==0, as
prefix can legally be NULL in that case. This would mimick the
intent of the original code better.

We never used Data::Dumper in this script. The only reference
of it was always commented out and removed over a decade ago in

Using a YYYYmmddHHMMSS date representation is more meaningful to
humans, especially when used for lookups on NNTP servers or linking
to archive sites via Message-ID (e.g. mid.gmane.org or
mid.mail-archive.com). This timestamp format more easily gives a
reader of the URL itself a rough date of a linked message compared
to having them calculate the seconds since the Unix epoch.
Furthermore, having the MUA name in the Message-ID seems to be a
rare oddity I haven't noticed outside of git-send-email. We
already have an optional X-Mailer header field to advertise for
us, so extending the Message-ID by 15 characters can make for
unpleasant Message-ID-based URLs to archive sites.

git blame reports lines as not "Not Committed Yet" when they have
CRLF in the index, CRLF in the worktree and core.autocrlf is true.
Since commit c4805393 (autocrlf: Make it work also for un-normalized
repositories, 2010-05-12), files that have CRLF in the index are not
normalized at commit when core.autocrl is set.
Add a call to read_cache() early in fake_working_tree_commit(),
before calling convert_to_git().

In general "echo 2>&1 $msg" to redirect a possible error message
that comes from 'echo' itself into the same standard output stream
$msg is getting written to does not make any sense; it is not like
we are expecting to see any errors out of 'echo' in these statements,
and even if it were the case, there is no reason to prevent the
error messages from being sent to the standard error stream.
These are clearly meant to send the argument given to echo to the
standard error stream as error messages. Correctly redirect by
saying "send what is written to the standard output to the standard
error", i.e. "1>&2" aka ">&2".
1. It always skips past "refs/remotes/", instead of
skipping past the prefix associated with the branch we
are showing (so commonly we see "refs/remotes/" for the
refs/remotes/origin/HEAD symref, but the previous code
would skip "refs/heads/" when showing a symref it found
in refs/heads/.
2. If skip_prefix() does not match, it leaves "desc"
untouched, and we show whatever happened to be in it
(which is the refname from a call to skip_prefix()
earlier in the function).
3. If we do match with skip_prefix(), we stomp on the
"desc" variable, which is later passed to
add_verbose_info(). We probably want to retain the
original refname there (though it likely doesn't matter
in practice, since after all, one points to the other).
The fix to match the original code is fairly easy: record
the prefix to strip based on item->kind, and use it here.
However, since we already have a local variable named "prefix",
let's give the two prefixes verbose names so we don't
confuse them.

git-format-patch.txt: don't show -s as shorthand for multiple options
git-format-patch recognizes -s as shorthand only for --signoff, however,
its documentation shows -s as shorthand for both --signoff and
--no-patch. Resolve this confusion by suppressing the bogus -s shorthand
for --no-patch.
While here, also avoid showing the --no-patch option in git-format-patch
documentation since it doesn't make sense to ask to suppress the patch
while at the same time explicitly asking to format the patch (which,
after all, is the purpose of git-format-patch).

When renaming a branch, currently only the HEAD of current working tree
is updated, but it must update HEADs of all working trees which point at
the old branch.
This is the current behavior, /path/to/wt's HEAD is not updated:
