When calling pretty_print_commit, there is an implicit
assumption that passing in a non-NULL "subject" variable
for oneline or email formats means that the output is part

This is not the desired effect when reporting the movement

log: print log entry terminator even if the message is empty

This eliminates a special case in the show_log() function, to help
simplify the terminator semantics. Now show_log() always prints a
newline after the log entry when use_terminator is set, even if the log
message is empty.

This change should only affect the --pretty=tformat output, since that

git-svn: Same default as cvsimport when using --use... Stephen R. van den Berg Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:20:32 +0000 (23:20 +0200)

git-svn: Same default as cvsimport when using --use-log-author

When using git-cvsimport, the author is inferred from the cvs commit,
e.g. cvs commit logname is foobaruser, then the author field in git
results in:

Author: foobaruser <foobaruser>

Which is not perfect, but perfectly acceptable given the circumstances.

The default git-svn import however, results in:

Author: foobaruser <foobaruser@acf43c95-373e-0410-b603-e72c3f656dc1>

When using mixes of imports, from CVS and SVN into the same git
repository, you'd like to harmonise the imports to the format cvsimport
uses.
git-svn supports an experimental option --use-log-author which currently
results in the same logentry as without that option when no From: or
Signed-off-by: is found in the logentry ($email currently ends up empty,
and hence is generated again).

This patches harmonises the result with cvsimport, and makes
git-svn --use-log-author produce:

Author: foobaruser <foobaruser>

git-svn: detect and fail gracefully when dcommitting... Matthieu Moy Thu, 24 Apr 2008 18:06:36 +0000 (20:06 +0200)

git-svn: detect and fail gracefully when dcommitting to a void

The command

git svn clone (URL of an empty SVN repo here)

works, creates an empty git repository. I can perform the initial
commit there, but then, "git svn dcommit" says :

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at .../git-svn line 414.
Committing to ...
Unable to determine upstream SVN information from HEAD history

I guess a correct management of the initial commit in git-svn would be
hard to implement, but at least, the error message can be improved.
First step is something like the patch below, and better would be for
"git svn clone" to warn that it won't be able to do much with the
cloned repo.

fix reflog approxidate parsing bug

In get_sha1_basic, we parse a string like

HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path/to/file

into its constituent ref, reflog date, and path components.
We never actually munge the string itself, but instead keep
offsets into the string with their associated lengths.

When we call approxidate on the contents inside braces,
however, we pass just a string without a length. This means
that approxidate could sometimes look past the closing brace
and (erroneously) interpret the rest of the string as part
of the date.

remote: create fetch config lines with '+'

Since git-remote always uses remote tracking branches, it
should be safe to always force updates of those branches.
I.e., we should generate

fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/*

instead of

fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/$remote/*

This was the behavior of the perl version, which seems to
have been lost in the C rewrite.

push: allow unqualified dest refspecs to DWIM

Previously, a push like:

git push remote src:dst

would go through the following steps:

1. check for an unambiguous 'dst' on the remote; if it
exists, then push to that ref
2. otherwise, check if 'dst' begins with 'refs/'; if it
does, create a new ref
3. otherwise, complain because we don't know where in the
refs hierarchy to put 'dst'

However, in some cases, we can guess about the ref type of
'dst' based on the ref type of 'src'. Specifically, before
complaining we now check:

2.5. if 'src' resolves to a ref starting with refs/heads
or refs/tags, then prepend that to 'dst'

So now this creates a new branch on the remote, whereas it
previously failed with an error message:

git push master:newbranch

Note that, by design, we limit this DWIM behavior only to
source refs which resolve exactly (including symrefs which
resolve to existing refs). We still complain on a partial
destination refspec if the source is a raw sha1, or a ref
expression such as 'master~10'.

t5516: remove ambiguity test (1)

This test tried to push into a remote with ambiguous refs in
remotes/$x/master and remotes/$y/master. However, the remote
never actually tells us about the refs/remotes hierarchy, so
we don't even see this ambiguity.

The test happened to pass because we were simply looking for
failure, and the test fails for another reason: the dst
refspec does not exist and does not begin with refs/, making
it invalid.

write-tree: properly detect failure to write tree objects

Tomasz Fortuna reported that "git commit" does not error out properly when
it cannot write tree objects out. "git write-tree" shares the same issue,
as the failure to notice the error is deep in the logic to write tree
objects out recursively.

Don't force imap.host to be set when imap.tunnel is setJeff King Tue, 22 Apr 2008 10:41:47 +0000 (06:41 -0400)

Don't force imap.host to be set when imap.tunnel is set

The documentation for git-imap-send suggests a tunnel setting such as

Tunnel = "ssh -q user@server.com /usr/bin/imapd ./Maildir 2> /dev/null"

which works wonderfully and doesn't require a username, password or port
setting.

However, git-imap-send currently requires that the imap.host variable be
set in the config even when it was unused. This patch changes imap-send
to only require that the imap.host setting is set if imap.tunnel is not
set. Otherwise, server.host is set to "tunnel" for reporting purposes.

post-receive-email: fix accidental removal of a trailing space in signature line

post-receive-email adds a signature to the end of emails in
generate_email_footer(). The signature was separated from the main email
body using the standard string "-- ". (see RFC 3676)

a6080a0 (War on whitespace, 2007-06-07) removed the trailing whitespace
from "-- ", leaving it as "--", which is not a correct signature
separator.

This patch restores the missing space, but does it in a way that will
not set off the trailing whitespace alarms.

git.el: Set process-environment instead of invoking env

According to the similar patch from David Kågedal [1], "this will make
it a little less posix-dependent and more efficient." However, there
are two other areas that need to replaced, namely
git-run-command-region and git-run-hooks. This patch implements the
changes of [1] onto those Emacs Lisp functions.

If unpatched, using the git port "msysgit" on Windows will require
defadvice changes as shown at [2] (also explained at 4msysgit.git
[3]).

I have tested git-run-command-region on msysgit, because this is
always called by git-commit (via git-commit-tree <- git-do-commit <-
git-commit-file). However, I could not test git-run-hooks because it
currently does not work on the Emacs Windows port. The latter reports
the hooks files as a+rw and a-x, despite msysgit and cygwin chmod
setting on the respective files.

This patch adds a remote.*.mirror configuration option that,

Furthermore, the option is set automatically by `git remote

special care was needed for boolean options, but this care was

These options filter the output from git branch to only include branches

The use-case for these options is when working with integration of branches
from many remotes: `git branch --no-merged -a` will show a nice list of merge
candidates while `git branch --merged -a` will show the progress of your
integration work.

Also, a plain `git branch --merged` is a quick way to find local branches
which you might want to delete.

gitweb: Fix 'history' view for deleted files with historyJakub Narebski Sun, 13 Apr 2008 12:12:15 +0000 (14:12 +0200)

gitweb: Fix 'history' view for deleted files with history

When asked for history of a file which is not present in given branch
("HEAD", i.e. current branch, or given by transient $hash_hase ('hb')
parameter), but is present deeper in the history (meaning that "git
rev-list --full-history $hash_base -- $file_name" is not empty), and
there is no $hash ('h') parameter set for a file, gitweb would spew
multiple of "Use of uninitialized value" warnings, and some links
would be missing. This commit fixes this bug.

This bug occurs in the rare cases when "git log -- <path>" is empty
and "git log --full-history -- <path>" is not, or to be more exact in
the cases when full-history starts later than given branch. It can
happen if you are using handcrafted gitwb URL, or if you follow
generic 'history' link or bookmark for a file which got deleted.

Gitweb tried to get file type ('tree', or 'blob', or even 'commit')
from the commit we start searching from (where the file was not
present), and not among found commits. This was the cause of "Use of
uninitialized value" warnings.

This commit also add tests for such situation to t9500 test.

While we are it, return HTTP error if there is _no_ history; it means
that file or directory was not found (for given branch). Also error
out if type of item could not be found: it should not happen now, but
better be sure.

This can happen if the arguments to git-remote add is switched by the

Fix it by using the refspec parsing engine to check if the requested
name can be parsed as a remote before add it.

Also cleanup so that the "remote.<name>.url" config name buffer is only
