daemon: Strictly parse the "extra arg" part of the command
Since 1.4.4.5 (49ba83fb67 "Add virtualization support to git-daemon")
git daemon enters an infinite loop and never terminates if a client
hides any extra arguments in the initial request line which is not
exactly "\0host=blah\0".
Since that change, a client must never insert additional extra
arguments, or attempt to use any argument other than "host=", as
any daemon will get stuck parsing the request line and will never
complete the request.
Since the client can't tell if the daemon is patched or not, it
is not possible to know if additional extra args might actually be
able to be safely requested.
If we ever need to extend the git daemon protocol to support a new
feature, we may have to do something like this to the exchange:
# If both support git:// v2
#
C: 000cgit://v2
S: 0010ok host user
C: 0018host git.kernel.org
C: 0027git-upload-pack /pub/linux-2.6.git
S: ...git-upload-pack header...
# If client supports git:// v2, server does not:
#
C: 000cgit://v2
S: <EOF>
This requires the client to create two TCP connections to talk to
an older git daemon, however all daemons since the introduction of
daemon.c will safely reject the unknown "git://v2" command request,
so the client can quite easily determine the server supports an
older protocol.

The command "git grep -w ''" dies as soon as it encounters an empty line,
reporting (wrongly) that "regexp returned nonsense". The first hunk of
this patch relaxes the sanity check that is responsible for that,
allowing matches to start at the end.
The second hunk complements it by making sure that empty matches are
rejected if -w was specified, as they are not really words.
* da/pretty-tempname:
diff: generate pretty filenames in prep_temp_blob()
compat: add a basename() compatibility function
compat: add a mkstemps() compatibility function
This simplifies the logic of rev_compare_tree() by removing a special
case.
It does so by turning the special case of finding a diff to be "all new
files" into a more generic case of "all new" vs "all removed" vs "mixed
changes", so now the code is actually more powerful and more generic, and
the added symmetry actually makes it simpler too.
This makes no changes to any existing behavior, but apart from the
simplification it does make it possible to some day care about whether all
changes were just deletions if we want to. Which we may well want to for
merge handling.

there is no change from the parent).
If the path used to be a directory, however, we will also see unbounded
number of entries that talk about the files that used to exist underneath
the directory in question. Correctly pick only the entry that describes
the path we are interested in in such a case (namely, the creation of the
path as a regular file).

git-add: no need for -f when resolving a conflict in already tracked path
When a path F that matches ignore pattern has a conflict, "git add F"
insisted the -f option be given, which did not make sense. It would have
required -f when the path was originally added, but when resolving a
conflict, it already is tracked.
So this should work (and does):
$ echo file >.gitignore
$ echo content >file
$ git add -f file ;# need -f because we are adding new path
$ echo more content >>file
$ git add file ;# don't need -f; it is not actually an "other" file
This is handled under the hood by the COLLECT_IGNORED option to
read_directory. When that code finds an ignored file, it checks the
index to make sure it is not actually a tracked file. However, the test
it uses does not take into account unmerged entries, and considers them
to still be ignored. "git ls-files" uses a more elaborate test and gets
the right answer and the same test should be used here.

fetch: report ref storage DF errors more accurately
When we fail to store a fetched ref, we recommend that the
user try running "git prune" to remove up any old refs that
have been deleted by the remote, which would clear up any DF
conflicts. However, ref storage might fail for other
reasons (e.g., permissions problems) in which case the
advice is useless and misleading.
This patch detects when there is an actual DF situation and
only issues the advice when one is found.
Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
One of the ways that locking might fail is that there is a
DF conflict between two refs (e.g., you want to lock
"foo/bar" but "foo" already exists). In this case, we return
an error, but there is no way for the caller to know the
specific problem.
This patch sets errno to ENOTDIR, which is the most sensible
code. It's what we would see if the refs were stored purely
in the filesystem (but these days we must check the
namespace manually due to packed refs).

parse-opts: add OPT_FILENAME and transition builtins
Commit dbd0f5c (Files given on the command line are relative to $cwd,
2008-08-06) introduced parse_options_fix_filename() as a minimal fix.
OPT_FILENAME is intended to be a more robust fix for the same issue.
OPT_FILENAME and its associated enum OPTION_FILENAME are used to
represent filename options within the parse options API.
This option is similar to OPTION_STRING. If --no is prefixed to the
option the filename is unset. If no argument is given and the default
value is set, the filename is set to the default value. The difference
is that the filename is prefixed with the prefix passed to
parse_options() (or parse_options_start()).
Update git-apply, git-commit, git-fmt-merge-msg, and git-tag to use
OPT_FILENAME with their filename options. Also, rename
parse_options_fix_filename() to fix_filename() as it is no longer
extern.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
To give OPT_FILENAME the prefix, we pass the prefix to parse_options()
which passes the prefix to parse_options_start() which sets the prefix
member of parse_opts_ctx accordingly. If there isn't a prefix in the
calling context, passing NULL will suffice.

Change xdl_merge to generate output even for null merges
xdl_merge used to have a check to ensure that there was at least
some change in one or other side being merged but this suppressed

Removing this check enables correct output in the degenerate case
and xdl_free_script handles freeing NULL scripts so there is no

Commit dbd0f5c7 (Files given on the command line are relative to $cwd,
2008-08-06) introduced parse_options_fix_filename() as a quick fix for
filename arguments used in the parse options API.
git-commit was still broken. This means
git commit -F log -t temp
in a subdirectory would make git think the log message should be taken
from temp instead of log.
This is because parse_options_fix_filename() calls prefix_filename()
which uses a single static char buffer to do its work. Making two calls
with two char pointers causes the pointers to alias. To prevent
aliasing, we duplicate the string returned by
parse_options_fix_filename().

The quoting was tricky enough that it's worth documenting. To add

say \\\\n\\\\n, and in the end, the pair of "echo" statements seemed
better. This is used in glibc.git repository:
