tag: Check that options are only allowed in the appropriate mode
If "git tag -d -l -v ..." is called, only "-l" is honored, which is
arbitrary and wrong. Also, unrecognized options are accepted in the
wrong modes, causing for example "git tag -n 100" to create a tag
named "100" while the user may have wanted to type "git tag -n100".
This patch checks that "git tag" knows in what mode it operates before
performing any operation and accepts only the related options.

struct object_entry *entry = *list++;

Because we look at and increment *list _before_ the check of
list_size, in the very last iteration of the loop we will
look at uninitialized data, and increment the pointer beyond
one past the end of the allocated space. Since we don't
actually do anything with the data until after the check,
this is not a problem in practice.
But since it technically violates the C standard, and
because it provokes a spurious valgrind warning, let's just
move the initialization of entry to a safe place.

Most cache_entry structs are allocated by using the
cache_entry_size macro, which rounds the size of the struct
up to the nearest multiple of 8 bytes (presumably to avoid
memory fragmentation).
There is one exception: the special "conflict entry" is
allocated with an empty name, and so is explicitly given
just one extra byte to hold the NUL.
However, later code doesn't realize that this particular
struct has been allocated differently, and happily tries
reading and copying it based on the ce_size macro, which
assumes the 8-byte alignment.
This can lead to reading uninitalized data, though since
that data is simply padding, there shouldn't be any problem
as a result. Still, it makes sense to hold the padding
assumption so as not to surprise later maintainers.
This fixes valgrind errors in t1005, t3030, t4002, and

reset --hard/read-tree --reset -u: remove unmerged new paths
When aborting a failed merge that has brought in a new path using "git

Fix "checkout --track -b newbranch" on detached HEAD

that the implementation for that feature itself was buggy. This fixes it.
refactor handling of "other" files in ls-files and status
When the "git status" display code was originally converted
to C, we copied the code from ls-files to discover whether a
pathname returned by read_directory was an "other", or
untracked, file.
Much later, 5698454e updated the code in ls-files to handle
some new cases caused by gitlinks. This left the code in
wt-status.c broken: it would display submodule directories
as untracked directories. Nobody noticed until now, however,
because unless status.showUntrackedFiles was set to "all",
submodule directories were not actually reported by
read_directory. So the bug was only triggered in the
presence of a submodule _and_ this config option.
This patch pulls the ls-files code into a new function,
cache_name_is_other, and uses it in both places. This should
leave the ls-files functionality the same and fix the bug
in status.

xdiff-interface.c: strip newline (and cr) from line before pattern matching
POSIX doth sayeth:
"In the regular expression processing described in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001,
the <newline> is regarded as an ordinary character and both a period and
a non-matching list can match one. ... Those utilities (like grep) that
do not allow <newline>s to match are responsible for eliminating any
<newline> from strings before matching against the RE."
Thus far git has not been removing the trailing newline from strings matched
against regular expression patterns. This has the effect that (quoting
Jonathan del Strother) "... a line containing just 'FUNCNAME' (terminated by
a newline) will be matched by the pattern '^(FUNCNAME.$)' but not
'^(FUNCNAME$)'", and more simply not '^FUNCNAME$'.

Some confusing tutorials suggested that it would be a good idea to fetch
into the current branch with something like this:
git fetch origin master:master
(or even worse: the same command line with "pull" instead of "fetch").
While it might make sense to store what you want to pull, it typically is
plain wrong when the current branch is "master". This should only be
allowed when (an incorrect) "git pull origin master:master" tries to work
around by giving --update-head-ok to underlying "git fetch", and otherwise
we should refuse it, but somewhere along the lines we lost that behavior.
The check for the current branch is now _only_ performed in non-bare
repositories, which is an improvement from the original behaviour.
Some newer tests were depending on the broken behaviour of "git fetch"
this patch fixes, and have been adjusted.

of the depth-first delta processing, and 2) needed again because it has

git-stash.sh: fix flawed fix of invalid ref handling (commit da65e7c1)
The referenced commit tried to fix a flaw in stash's handling of a user
supplied invalid ref. i.e. 'git stash apply fake_ref@{0}' should fail
instead of applying stash@{0}. But, it did so in a naive way by avoiding the
use of the --default option of rev-parse, and instead manually supplied the
default revision if the user supplied an empty command line. This prevented
a common usage scenario of supplying flags on the stash command line (i.e.
non-empty command line) which would be parsed by lower level git commands,
without supplying a specific revision. This should fall back to the default
revision, but now it causes an error. e.g. 'git stash show -p'
The correct fix is to use the --verify option of rev-parse, which fails
properly if an invalid ref is supplied, and still allows falling back to a
default ref when one is not supplied.
Convert stash-drop to use --verify while we're at it, since specifying
multiple revisions for any of these commands is also an error and --verify
makes it so.

If core.bare or core.sharedRepository are set in /etc/gitconfig or
~/.gitconfig, then 'git init' will read the values when constructing a
new config file; reading them, however, will override the values
specified on the command line. In the case of --bare, this ends up
causing a segfault, without the repository being properly initialised;
in the case of --shared, the permissions are set according to the
existing config settings, not what was specified on the command line.
This fix saves any specified values for --bare and --shared prior to
reading existing config settings, and restores them after reading but
before writing the new config file. core.bare is ignored in all
situations, while core.sharedRepository will only be used if --shared
is not specified to git init.
Also includes testcases which use a specified global config file
override, demonstrating the former failure scenario.

fix bogus "diff --git" header from "diff --no-index"
When "git diff --no-index" is given an absolute pathname, it
would generate a diff header with the absolute path
prepended by the prefix, like:
diff --git a/dev/null b/foo
Not only is this nonsensical, and not only does it violate
the description of diffs given in git-diff(1), but it would
produce broken binary diffs. Unlike text diffs, the binary
diffs don't contain the filenames anywhere else, and so "git
apply" relies on this header to figure out the filename.
This patch just refuses to use an invalid name for anything
visible in the diff.
Now, this fixes the "git diff --no-index --binary a
/dev/null" kind of case (and we'll end up using "a" as the
basename), but some other insane cases are impossible to
handle. If you do
git diff --no-index --binary a /bin/echo
you'll still get a patch like
diff --git a/a b/bin/echo
old mode 100644
new mode 100755
index ...
and "git apply" will refuse to apply it for a couple of
reasons, and the diff is simply bogus.
And that, btw, is no longer a bug, I think. It's impossible
to know whethe the user meant for the patch to be a rename
or not. And as such, refusing to apply it because you don't
know what name you should use is probably _exactly_ the
right thing to do!

This breaks my build on Solaris 8, as there is no separate

The history of this line is somewhat convoluted. In 2fd955c

Solaris builds, claiming to "fix an error in Solaris 10 by

Later, e15f545 (in February of 2006) claimed that "Solaris

section for Solaris 8.
that he does not set NEEDS_LIBICONV for Solaris 7.
So either one of those commits is totally wrong, or there is
some other magic going on where some Solaris installs need
it and others don't.
Given Brandon's statement and my problems on Solaris 8 with
NEEDS_LIBICONV, I am inclined to think the first commit was
bogus, and that NEEDS_LIBICONV shouldn't be set for Solaris
at all by default. If somebody wants to use iconv and has
installed it manually, they can set it in their config.mak.
