For some reason, 'echo X | dd bs=1k seek=1' creates a file with 2050 bytes
on Windows instead of the expected 1026 bytes, so that a test fails. Since
the actual contents of the file are irrelevant as long as there is at
least one zero byte so that the diff machinery recognizes it as binary,
use printf to generate it.

status: color in-progress message like other header... Jeff King Mon, 16 Jul 2012 11:39:54 +0000 (07:39 -0400)

status: color in-progress message like other header messages

The "status" command recently learned to describe the
in-progress operation in its long output format (e.g.,
rebasing, am, etc). This message gets its own slot in the
color table, even though it is not configurable. As a
result, if the user has set color.status.header to a
non-default value, this message will not match (and cannot
be made to match, as there is no config option).

It is probably more sane to just color it like the rest of
the text (i.e., just use color.status.header). This would
not allow users to customize the color of this message
independently, but they cannot do that with the current code
anyway, and if somebody wants to build customizable
colorization later, this patch does not make it much harder
to do so.

am: indicate where a failed patch is to be found

If "git am" fails to apply something, the end user may need to know
where to find the patch that failed to apply, so that the user can
do other things (e.g. trying "GNU patch" on it, running "diffstat"
to see what it tried to change, etc.) The input to "am" may have
contained more than one patch, or the message may have been MIME
encoded, and knowing what the user fed to "am" does not help very
much for this purpose.

learned where to look to squelch this message.

revision: avoid work after --max-count is reachedJeff King Fri, 13 Jul 2012 07:50:23 +0000 (03:50 -0400)

revision: avoid work after --max-count is reached

During a revision traversal in which --max-count has been
specified, we decrement a counter for each revision returned
by get_revision. When it hits 0, we typically return NULL
(the exception being if we still have boundary commits to
show).

However, before we check the counter, we call get_revision_1
to get the next commit. This might involve looking at a
large number of commits if we have restricted the traversal
(e.g., we might traverse until we find the next commit whose
diff actually matches a pathspec).

There's no need to make this get_revision_1 call when our
counter runs out. If we are not in --boundary mode, we will
just throw away the result and immediately return NULL. If
we are in --boundary mode, then we will still throw away the
result, and then start showing the boundary commits.
However, as git_revision_1 does not impact the boundary
list, it should not have an impact.

In most cases, avoiding this work will not be especially
noticeable. However, in some cases, it can make a big
difference:

[before]
$ time git rev-list -1 origin Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.11.2.txt
8d141a1d562abb31f27f599dbf6e10a6c06ed73e

real 0m0.301s
user 0m0.280s
sys 0m0.016s

[after]
$ time git rev-list -1 origin Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.11.2.txt
8d141a1d562abb31f27f599dbf6e10a6c06ed73e

real 0m0.010s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m0.000s

Note that the output is produced almost instantaneously in
the first case, and then git uselessly spends a long time
looking for the next commit to touch that file (but there
isn't one, and we traverse all the way down to the roots).

submodules: don't stumble over symbolic links when... Jens Lehmann Thu, 12 Jul 2012 17:45:32 +0000 (19:45 +0200)

submodules: don't stumble over symbolic links when cloning recursively

Since 69c3051 (submodules: refactor computation of relative gitdir path)
cloning a submodule recursively fails for nested submodules when a
symbolic link is part of the path to the work tree of the superproject.

This happens when module_clone() tries to find the relative paths between
the work tree and the git dir. When a symbolic link in current $PWD points
to a directory that is at a different level, then determining the number
of "../" needed to traverse to the superproject's work tree leads to a
wrong result.

As there is no portable way to say "pwd -P", use cd_to_toplevel to remove
the link from $PWD, which fixes this problem.

A test for this issue has been added to t7406.

index-pack: loop while inflating objects in unpack_dataJeff King Wed, 4 Jul 2012 07:12:14 +0000 (03:12 -0400)

index-pack: loop while inflating objects in unpack_data

When the unpack_data function is given a consume() callback,
it unpacks only 64K of the input at a time, feeding it to
git_inflate along with a 64K output buffer. However,
because we are inflating, there is a good chance that the
output buffer will fill before consuming all of the input.
In this case, we need to loop on git_inflate until we have
fed the whole input buffer, feeding each chunk of output to
the consume buffer.

The current code does not do this, and as a result, will
fail the loop condition and trigger a fatal "serious inflate
inconsistency" error in this case.

While we're rearranging the loop, let's get rid of the
extra last_out pointer. It is meant to point to the
beginning of the buffer that we feed to git_inflate, but in
practice this is always the beginning of our same 64K
buffer, because:

1. At the beginning of the loop, we are feeding the
buffer.

2. At the end of the loop, if we are using a consume()
function, we reset git_inflate's pointer to the
beginning of the buffer. If we are not using a
consume() function, then we do not care about the value
of last_out at all.

commit: fix "--amend --only" with no pathspecJeff King Tue, 10 Jul 2012 20:40:29 +0000 (16:40 -0400)

commit: fix "--amend --only" with no pathspec

When we do not have any pathspec, we typically disallow an
explicit "--only", because it makes no sense (your commit
would, by definition, be empty). But since 6a74642
(git-commit --amend: two fixes., 2006-04-20), we have
allowed "--amend --only" with the intent that it would amend
the commit, ignoring any contents staged in the index.

However, while that commit allowed the combination, we never
actually implemented the logic to make it work. The current
code notices that we have no pathspec and assumes we want to
do an as-is commit (i.e., the "--only" is ignored).

Instead, we must make sure to follow the partial-commit
code-path. We also need to tweak the list_paths function to
handle a NULL pathspec.

- "git commit-tree" reads a tree object name (not "tree-ish"), and

apply: fall back on three-way merge

Grab the preimage blob the patch claims to be based on out of the object
store, apply the patch, and then call three-way-merge function. This step
still does not plug the actual three-way merge logic yet, but we are
getting there.

apply: accept -3/--3way command line option

Begin teaching the three-way merge fallback logic "git am -3" uses
to the underlying "git apply". It only implements the command line
parsing part, and does not do anything interesting yet, other than
making sure that "--reject" and "--3way" are not given together, and
making "--3way" imply "--index".

apply: move "already exists" logic to check_to_create()

The check_to_create_blob() function used to check only the case
where we are applying to the working tree. Rename the function to
check_to_create() and make it also responsible for checking the case
where we apply to the index. Also make its caller responsible for
issuing an error message.

apply: further split load_preimage()

load_preimage() is very specific to grab the current contents for
the path given by patch->old_name. Split the logic that grabs the
contents for a path out of it into a separate load_patch_target()
function.

apply: refactor "previous patch" logic

The code to grab the result of application of a previous patch in the
input was mixed with error message generation for a case where a later
patch tries to modify contents of a path that has been removed.

The same code is duplicated elsewhere in the code. Introduce a helper
to clarify what is going on.

apply: split load_preimage() helper function out

Given a patch for a single path, the function apply_data() reads the
preimage in core, and applies the change represented in the patch.

Separate out the first part that reads the preimage into a separate
helper function load_preimage().

apply: factor out checkout_target() helper function

When a patch wants to touch a path, if the path exists in the index
but is missing in the working tree, "git apply --index" checks out
the file to the working tree from the index automatically and then
applies the patch.

Split this logic out to a separate helper function.

apply: refactor read_file_or_gitlink()

Reading a blob out of the object store does not have to require that the
caller has a cache entry for it.

Create a read_blob_object() helper function that takes the object name and
mode, and use it to reimplement the original function as a thin wrapper to
it.
