Doc: use `--type=bool` instead of `--bool`
After fb0dc3bac1 (builtin/config.c: support `--type=<type>` as preferred
alias for `--<type>`, 2018-04-18) we have a more modern way of spelling
`--bool`.
Update all instances except those that explicitly document the
"historical options" in git-config.txt. The other old-style
type-specifiers already seem to be gone except for in that list of
historical options.
Tweak the grammar a little in config.txt while we are there.

Merge branch 'nd/unpack-trees-with-cache-tree'
The unpack_trees() API used in checking out a branch and merging
walks one or more trees along with the index. When the cache-tree
in the index tells us that we are walking a tree whose flattened
contents is known (i.e. matches a span in the index), as linearly
scanning a span in the index is much more efficient than having to
open tree objects recursively and listing their entries, the walk
can be optimized, which is done in this topic.

This reverts commit 6f924265a0bf6efa677e9a684cebdde958e5ba06, which
started to require that we have an executable git available in order
to say "make clean", which gives us a chicken-and-egg problem.
Having to have Git installed, or be in a repository, in order to be
able to run an optional "doc-diff" tool is fine. Requiring either
in order to run "make clean" is a different story.

Revert "Merge branch 'sb/submodule-core-worktree'"
This reverts commit 7e25437d35a70791b345872af202eabfb3e1a8bc, reversing
changes made to 00624d608cc69bd62801c93e74d1ea7a7ddd6598.
v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~1 (submodule: ensure core.worktree is set after
update, 2018-06-18) assumes an "absorbed" submodule layout, where the
submodule's Git directory is in the superproject's .git/modules/
directory and .git in the submodule worktree is a .git file pointing
there. In particular, it uses $GIT_DIR/modules/$name to find the
submodule to find out whether it already has core.worktree set, and it
uses connect_work_tree_and_git_dir if not, resulting in
fatal: could not open sub/.git for writing
The context behind that patch: v2.19.0-rc0~165^2~2 (submodule: unset
core.worktree if no working tree is present, 2018-06-12) unsets
core.worktree when running commands like "git checkout
--recurse-submodules" to switch to a branch without the submodule. If
a user then uses "git checkout --no-recurse-submodules" to switch back
to a branch with the submodule and runs "git submodule update", this
patch is needed to ensure that commands using the submodule directly
are aware of the path to the worktree.
It is late in the release cycle, so revert the whole 3-patch series.
We can try again later for 2.20.

http-backend: allow empty CONTENT_LENGTH
According to RFC3875, empty environment variable is equivalent to unset,
and for CONTENT_LENGTH it should mean zero body to read.
However, unset CONTENT_LENGTH is also used for chunked encoding to indicate
reading until EOF. At least, the test "large fetch-pack requests can be split
across POSTs" from t5551 starts faliing, if unset or empty CONTENT_LENGTH is
treated as zero length body. So keep the existing behavior as much as possible.
Add a test for the case.

doc-diff: force worktree add
We avoid re-creating our temporary worktree if it's already
there. But we may run into a situation where the worktree
has been deleted, but an entry still exists in
$GIT_DIR/worktrees.
Older versions of git-worktree would annoyingly create a
series of duplicate entries. Recent versions now detect and
prevent this, allowing you to override with "-f". Since we
know that the worktree in question was just our temporary
workspace, it's safe for us to always pass "-f".

Recent addition of "directory rename" heuristics to the

bisect.c: make show_list() build again
This function only compiles when DEBUG_BISECT is 1, which is often not
the case. As a result there are two commits [1] [2] that break it but
the breakages went unnoticed because the code did not compile by
default. Update the function and include the new header file to make this
function build again.
In order to stop this from happening again, the function is now
compiled unconditionally but exits early unless DEBUG_BISECT is
non-zero. A smart compiler generates no extra code (not even a
function call). But even if it does not, this function does not seem
to be in a hot path that the extra cost becomes a big problem.

pack-bitmap: drop "loaded" flag
In the early days of the bitmap code, there was a single
static bitmap_index struct that was used behind the scenes,
and any bitmap-related functions could lazily check
bitmap_git.loaded to see if they needed to read the on-disk
data.
But since 3ae5fa0768 (pack-bitmap: remove bitmap_git global
variable, 2018-06-07), the caller is responsible for the
lifetime of the bitmap_index struct, and we return it from
prepare_bitmap_git() and prepare_bitmap_walk(), both of
which load the on-disk data (or return NULL).
So outside of these functions, it's not possible to have a
bitmap_index for which the loaded flag is not true. Nor is
it possible to accidentally pass an already-loaded

traverse_bitmap_commit_list(): don't free result
Since it was introduced in fff42755ef (pack-bitmap: add
support for bitmap indexes, 2013-12-21), this function has
freed the result after traversing it. That is an artifact of
the early days of the bitmap code, when we had a single
static "struct bitmap_index". Back then, it was intended
that you would do:
prepare_bitmap_walk(&revs);
traverse_bitmap_commit_list(&revs);
Since the actual bitmap_index struct was totally behind the
scenes, it was convenient for traverse_bitmap_commit_list()
to clean it up, clearing the way for another traversal.
But since 3ae5fa0768 (pack-bitmap: remove bitmap_git global
variable, 2018-06-07), the caller explicitly manages the
bitmap_index struct itself, like this:
b = prepare_bitmap_walk(&revs);
traverse_bitmap_commit_list(b, &revs);
free_bitmap_index(b);
It no longer makes sense to auto-free the result after the
traversal. If you want to do another traversal, you'd just
create a new bitmap_index. And while nobody tries to call
traverse_bitmap_commit_list() twice, the fact that it throws
away the result might be surprising, and is better avoided.
Note that in the "old" way it was possible for two walks to
amortize the cost of opening the on-disk .bitmap file (since
it was stored in the global bitmap_index), but we lost that
in 3ae5fa0768. However, no code actually does this, so it's
not worth addressing now. The solution might involve a new:
reset_bitmap_walk(b, &revs);
call. Or we might even attach the bitmap data to its
matching packed_git struct, so that multiple
prepare_bitmap_walk() calls could use it. That can wait
until somebody actually has need of the optimization (and
until then, we'll do the correct, unsurprising thing).

t5310: test delta reuse with bitmaps
Commit 6a1e32d532 (pack-objects: reuse on-disk deltas for

optimization trick. Since this wasn't meant to change
user-visible behavior, but only produce smaller packs more
quickly, testing focused on t/perf/p5311.
However, since people don't run perf tests very often, we

bitmap_has_sha1_in_uninteresting(): drop BUG check
Commit 30cdc33fba (pack-bitmap: save "have" bitmap from
walk, 2018-08-21) introduced a new function for looking at
the "have" side of a bitmap walk. Because it only makes
sense to do so after we've finished the walk, we added an
extra safety assertion, making sure that bitmap_git->result
is non-NULL.
However, this safety is misguided. It was trying to catch
the case where we had called prepare_bitmap_walk() to give
us a "struct bitmap_index", but had not yet called
traverse_bitmap_commit_list() to walk it. But all of the
interesting computation (including setting up the result and
"have" bitmaps) happens in the first function! The latter
function only delivers the result to a callback function.
So the case we were worried about is impossible; if you get
a non-NULL result from prepare_bitmap_walk(), then its
"have" field will be fully formed.
But much worse, traverse_bitmap_commit_list() actually frees
the result field as it finishes. Which means that this
assertion is worse than useless: it's almost guaranteed to
trigger!
Our test suite didn't catch this because the function isn't
actually exercised at all. The only caller comes from
6a1e32d532 (pack-objects: reuse on-disk deltas for thin
"have" objects, 2018-08-21), and that's triggered only when
you fetch or push history that contains an object with a
base that is found deep in history. Our test suite fetches
and pushes either don't use bitmaps, or use too-small
example repositories. But any reasonably-sized real-world
push or fetch (with bitmaps) would trigger this.
This patch drops the harmful assertion and tweaks the
docstring for the function to make the precondition clear.
The tests need to be improved to exercise this new
pack-objects feature, but we'll do that in a separate
commit.

fetch: stop clobbering existing tags without --force
Change "fetch" to treat "+" in refspecs (aka --force) to mean we
should clobber a local tag of the same name.
This changes the long-standing behavior of "fetch" added in
853a3697dc ("[PATCH] Multi-head fetch.", 2005-08-20). Before this
change, all tag fetches effectively had --force enabled. See the
git-fetch-script code in fast_forward_local() with the comment:
> Tags need not be pointing at commits so there is no way to
> guarantee "fast-forward" anyway.
That commit and the rest of the history of "fetch" shows that the
"+" (--force) part of refpecs was only conceived for branch updates,
while tags have accepted any changes from upstream unconditionally and
clobbered the local tag object. Changing this behavior has been
discussed as early as 2011[1].
The current behavior doesn't make sense to me, it easily results in
local tags accidentally being clobbered. We could namespace our tags
per-remote and not locally populate refs/tags/*, but as with my
97716d217c ("fetch: add a --prune-tags option and fetch.pruneTags
config", 2018-02-09) it's easier to work around the current
implementation than to fix the root cause.
So this change implements suggestion #1 from Jeff's 2011 E-Mail[1],
"fetch" now only clobbers the tag if either "+" is provided as part of
the refspec, or if "--force" is provided on the command-line.
This also makes it nicely symmetrical with how "tag" itself works when
creating tags. I.e. we refuse to clobber any existing tags unless
"--force" is supplied. Now we can refuse all such clobbering, whether
it would happen by clobbering a local tag with "tag", or by fetching
it from the remote with "fetch".
Ref updates outside refs/{tags,heads/* are still still not symmetrical
with how "git push" works, as discussed in the recently changed
pull-fetch-param.txt documentation. This change brings the two
divergent behaviors more into line with one another. I don't think
there's any reason "fetch" couldn't fully converge with the behavior
used by "push", but that's a topic for another change.
One of the tests added in 31b808a032 ("clone --single: limit the fetch
refspec to fetched branch", 2012-09-20) is being changed to use
--force where a clone would clobber a tag. This changes nothing about
the existing behavior of the test.

push doc: correct lies about how push refspecs work

or refs/not-that/*. See is_branch() in refs.c, and the various
assertions in refs/files-backend.c. (e.g. "trying to write non-commit
object %s to branch '%s'").
This documentation has never been quite correct, but went downhill
after dbfeddb12e ("push: require force for refs under refs/tags/",
2012-11-29) when we started claiming that <dst> couldn't be a tag
object, which is incorrect. After some of the logic in that patch was
changed in 256b9d70a4 ("push: fix "refs/tags/ hierarchy cannot be

we've had some version of documentation that confused whether <src>
was a tag or not with whether <dst> would accept either an annotated
tag object or the commit it points to.
This makes the intro somewhat more verbose & complex, perhaps we
should have a shorter description here and split the full complexity
into a dedicated section. Very few users will find themselves needing

t5303: use printf to generate delta bases
The exact byte count of the delta base file is important.
The test-delta helper will feed it to patch_delta(), which
will barf if it doesn't match the size byte given in the
delta. Using "echo" may end up with unexpected line endings
on some platforms (e.g,. "\r\n" instead of just "\n").
This actually wouldn't cause the test to fail (since we
already expect test-delta to complain about these bogus
deltas), but would mean that we're not exercising the code
we think we are.
Let's use printf instead (which we already trust to give us
byte-perfect output when we generate the deltas).
While we're here, let's tighten the 5-byte result size used
in the "truncated copy parameters" test. This just needs to
have enough room to attempt to parse the bogus copy command,
meaning 2 is sufficient. Using 5 was arbitrary and just
copied from the base size; since those no longer match, it's
simply confusing. Let's use a more meaningful number.

commit: don't use generation numbers if not needed
In 3afc679b "commit: use generations in paint_down_to_common()",
the queue in paint_down_to_common() was changed to use a priority
order based on generation number before commit date. This served
two purposes:
1. When generation numbers are present, the walk guarantees
correct topological relationships, regardless of clock skew in
commit dates.
2. It enables short-circuiting the walk when the min_generation
parameter is added in d7c1ec3e "commit: add short-circuit to
paint_down_to_common()". This short-circuit helps commands
like 'git branch --contains' from needing to walk to a merge
base when we know the result is false.
The commit message for 3afc679b includes the following sentence:
This change does not affect the number of commits that are
walked during the execution of paint_down_to_common(), only
the order that those commits are inspected.
This statement is incorrect. Because it changes the order in which
the commits are inspected, it changes the order they are added to
the queue, and hence can change the number of loops before the
queue_has_nonstale() method returns true.
This change makes a concrete difference depending on the topology
of the commit graph. For instance, computing the merge-base between
consecutive versions of the Linux kernel has no effect for versions
after v4.9, but 'git merge-base v4.8 v4.9' presents a performance
regression:
v2.18.0: 0.122s
v2.19.0-rc1: 0.547s
HEAD: 0.127s
To determine that this was simply an ordering issue, I inserted
a counter within the while loop of paint_down_to_common() and
found that the loop runs 167,468 times in v2.18.0 and 635,579
times in v2.19.0-rc1.
The topology of this case can be described in a simplified way
here:
v4.9
| \
| \
v4.8 \
| \ \
| \ |
... A B
| / /
| / /
|/__/
C
Here, the "..." means "a very long line of commits". By generation
number, A and B have generation one more than C. However, A and B
have commit date higher than most of the commits reachable from
v4.8. When the walk reaches v4.8, we realize that it has PARENT1
and PARENT2 flags, so everything it can reach is marked as STALE,
including A. B has only the PARENT1 flag, so is not STALE.
When paint_down_to_common() is run using
compare_commits_by_commit_date, A and B are removed from the queue
early and C is inserted into the queue. At this point, C and the
rest of the queue entries are marked as STALE. The loop then
terminates.
When paint_down_to_common() is run using
compare_commits_by_gen_then_commit_date, B is removed from the
queue only after the many commits reachable from v4.8 are explored.
This causes the loop to run longer. The reason for this regression
is simple: the queue order is intended to not explore a commit
until everything that _could_ reach that commit is explored. From
the information gathered by the original ordering, we have no
guarantee that there is not a commit D reachable from v4.8 that
can also reach B. We gained absolute correctness in exchange for
a performance regression.
The performance regression is probably the worse option, since
these incorrect results in paint_down_to_common() are rare. The
topology required for the performance regression are less rare,
but still require multiple merge commits where the parents differ
greatly in generation number. In our example above, the commit A
is as important as the commit B to demonstrate the problem, since
otherwise the commit C will sit in the queue as non-stale just as
long in both orders.
The solution provided uses the min_generation parameter to decide
if we should use generation numbers in our ordering. When
min_generation is equal to zero, it means that the caller has no
known cutoff for the walk, so we should rely on our commit-date
heuristic as before; this is the case with merge_bases_many().
When min_generation is non-zero, then the caller knows a valuable
cutoff for the short-circuit mechanism; this is the case with
remove_redundant() and in_merge_bases_many().

patch-delta: handle truncated copy parameters
When we see a delta command instructing us to copy bytes
from the base, we have to read the offset and size from the
delta stream. We do this without checking whether we're at
the end of the stream, meaning we may read past the end of
the buffer.
In practice this isn't exploitable in any interesting way
because:
1. Deltas are always in packfiles, so we have at least a
20-byte trailer that we'll end up reading.
2. The worst case is that we try to perform a nonsense
copy from the base object into the result, based on
whatever was in the pack stream next. In most cases
this will simply fail due to our bounds-checks against
the base or the result.
But even if you carefully constructed a pack stream for
which it succeeds, it wouldn't perform any delta
operation that you couldn't have simply included in a
non-broken form.
But obviously it's poor form to read past the end of the
buffer we've been given. Unfortunately there's no easy way
to do a single length check, since the number of bytes we
need depends on the number of bits set in the initial
command byte. So we'll just check each byte as we parse. We
can hide the complexity in a macro; it's ugly, but not as
ugly as writing out each individual conditional.

patch-delta: consistently report corruption

don't signal an explicit error. We rely on the sanity check
after the loop to see if we have leftover delta bytes or
didn't fill our result buffer.
This can silently ignore corruption when the delta buffer
ends with a bogus command and the destination buffer is
already full. Instead, let's jump into the error handler
directly when we see this case.

t5303: test some corrupt deltas
We don't have any tests that specifically check boundary
cases in patch_delta(). It obviously gets exercised by tests
which read from packfiles, but it's hard to create packfiles
with bogus deltas.
So let's cover some obvious boundary cases:
1. commands that overflow the result buffer
a. literal content from the delta
b. copies from a base
2. commands where the source isn't large enough
a. literal content from a truncated delta
b. copies that need more bytes than the base has
3. copy commands who parameters are truncated
And indeed, we have problems with both 2a and 3. I've marked
these both as expect_failure, though note that because they
involve reading past the end of a buffer, they will
typically only be caught when run under valgrind or ASan.
There's one more test here, too, which just applies a basic
delta. Since all of the other tests expect failure and we
don't otherwise use "test-tool delta" in the test suite,
this gives a sanity check that the tool works at all.

test-delta: read input into a heap buffer
We currently read the input to test-delta by mmap()-ing it.
However, memory-checking tools like valgrind and ASan are
less able to detect reads/writes past the end of an mmap'd
buffer, because the OS is likely to give us extra bytes to
pad out the final page size. So instead, let's read into a
heap buffer.
As a bonus, this also makes it possible to write tests with
empty bases, as mmap() will complain about a zero-length
map.
This is based on a patch by Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>
which actually aligned the data at the end of a page, and
followed it with another page marked with mprotect(). That
would detect problems even without a tool like ASan, but it
was significantly more complex and may have introduced
portability problems. By comparison, this approach pushes
the complexity onto existing memory-checking tools.
Note that this could be done even more simply by using
strbuf_read_file(), but that would defeat the purpose:
strbufs generally overallocate (and at the very least
include a trailing NUL which we do not care about), which
would defeat most memory checkers.

- the namespace inside the worktree is different than the
one outside. In particular, "./doc-diff origin HEAD"
will resolve HEAD inside the worktree, whose detached
HEAD will be pointing at origin! As a result, such a
diff would always be empty.
- worse, we will store this result under the oid we got by
resolving HEAD in the main worktree, thus polluting our
cache
- we didn't pass --detach, which meant that using a branch
name would cause us to actually check out that branch,
making it unavailable to other worktrees.
We can solve this by feeding the already-resolved object id
to git-checkout. That naturally forces a detached HEAD, but
just to make clear our expectation, let's explicitly pass
--detach.

worktree: delete .git/worktrees if empty after 'remove'
For cleanliness, "git worktree prune" deletes the .git/worktrees
directory if it is empty after pruning is complete.
For consistency, make "git worktree remove <path>" likewise delete
.git/worktrees if it is empty after the removal.

worktree: teach 'add' to respect --force for registered but missing path
For safety, "git worktree add <path>" will refuse to add a new
worktree at <path> if <path> is already associated with a worktree
entry, even if <path> is missing (for instance, has been deleted or
resides on non-mounted removable media or network share). The typical
way to re-create a worktree at <path> in such a situation is either to
prune all "broken" entries ("git worktree prune") or to selectively
remove the worktree entry manually ("git worktree remove <path>").
However, neither of these approaches ("prune" nor "remove") is
especially convenient, and they may be unsuitable for scripting when a
tool merely wants to re-use a worktree if it exists or create it from
scratch if it doesn't (much as a tool might use "mkdir -p" to re-use
or create a directory).
Therefore, teach 'add' to respect --force as a convenient way to
re-use a path already associated with a worktree entry if the path is
non-existent. For a locked worktree, require --force to be specified
twice.

worktree: disallow adding same path multiple times
A given path should only ever be associated with a single registered
worktree. This invariant is enforced by refusing to create a new
worktree at a given path if that path already exists. For example:
$ git worktree add -q --detach foo
$ git worktree add -q --detach foo
fatal: 'foo' already exists
However, the check can be fooled, and the invariant broken, if the
path is missing. Continuing the example:
$ rm -fr foo
$ git worktree add -q --detach foo
$ git worktree list
... eadebfe [master]
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
This "corruption" leads to the unfortunate situation in which the
worktree can not be removed:
$ git worktree remove foo
fatal: validation failed, cannot remove working tree: '.../foo'
does not point back to '.git/worktrees/foo'
Nor can the bogus entry be pruned:
$ git worktree prune -v
$ git worktree list
... eadebfe [master]
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
.../foo eadebfe (detached HEAD)
without first deleting the worktree directory manually:
$ rm -fr foo
$ git worktree prune -v
Removing .../foo: gitdir file points to non-existent location
Removing .../foo1: gitdir file points to non-existent location
$ git worktree list
... eadebfe [master]
or by manually deleting the worktree entry in .git/worktrees.
To address this problem, upgrade "git worktree add" validation to
allow worktree creation only if the given path is not already
associated with an existing worktree (even if the path itself is
non-existent), thus preventing such bogus worktree entries from being
created in the first place.

worktree: prepare for more checks of whether path can become worktree
Certain conditions must be met for a path to be a valid candidate as the
location of a new worktree; for instance, the path must not exist or
must be an empty directory. Although the number of conditions is small,
new conditions will soon be added so factor out the existing checks into
a separate function to avoid further bloating add_worktree().

worktree: generalize delete_git_dir() to reduce code duplication
prune_worktrees() and delete_git_dir() both remove worktree
administrative entries from .git/worktrees, and their implementations
are nearly identical. The only difference is that prune_worktrees() is
also capable of removing a bogus non-worktree-related file from
.git/worktrees.
Simplify by extending delete_git_dir() to handle the little bit of
extra functionality needed by prune_worktrees(), and drop the
effectively duplicate code from the latter.

worktree: don't die() in library function find_worktree()
Callers don't expect library function find_worktree() to die(); they
expect it to return the named worktree if found, or NULL if not.
Although find_worktree() itself never invokes die(), it calls
real_pathdup() with 'die_on_error' incorrectly set to 'true', thus will
die() indirectly if the user-provided path is not to real_pathdup()'s
liking. This can be observed, for instance, with any git-worktree
command which searches for an existing worktree:
$ git worktree unlock foo
fatal: 'foo' is not a working tree
$ git worktree unlock foo/bar
fatal: Invalid path '.../foo': No such file or directory
The first error message is the expected one from "git worktree unlock"
not finding the specified worktree; the second is from find_worktree()
invoking real_pathdup() incorrectly and die()ing prematurely.
Aside from the inconsistent error message between the two cases, this
bug hasn't otherwise been a serious problem since existing callers all
die() anyhow when the worktree can't be found. However, that may not be
true of callers added in the future, so fix find_worktree() to avoid
die()ing.

am: avoid directory rename detection when calling recursive merge machinery
Let's say you have the following three trees, where Base is from one commit
behind either master or branch:
Base : bar_v1, foo/{file1, file2, file3}
branch: bar_v2, foo/{file1, file2}, goo/file3
master: bar_v3, foo/{file1, file2, file3}
Using git-am (or am-based rebase) to apply the changes from branch onto
master results in the following tree:
Result: bar_merged, goo/{file1, file2, file3}
This is not what users want; they did not rename foo/ -> goo/, they only
renamed one file within that directory. The reason this happens is am
constructs fake trees (via build_fake_ancestor()) of the following form:
Base_bfa : bar_v1, foo/file3
branch_bfa: bar_v2, goo/file3
Combining these two trees with master's tree:
master: bar_v3, foo/{file1, file2, file3},
You can see that merge_recursive_generic() would see branch_bfa as renaming
foo/ -> goo/, and master as just adding both foo/file1 and foo/file2. As
such, it ends up with goo/{file1, file2, file3}
The core problem is that am does not have access to the original trees; it
can only construct trees using the blobs involved in the patch. As such,
it is not safe to perform directory rename detection within am -3.

t3401: add another directory rename testcase for rebase and am
Similar to commit 16346883ab ("t3401: add directory rename testcases for
rebase and am", 2018-06-27), add another testcase for directory rename
detection. This new testcase differs in that it showcases a situation
where no directory rename was performed, but which some backends
incorrectly detect.
As with the other testcase, run this in conjunction with each of the
types of rebases:
git-rebase--interactive
git-rebase--am
git-rebase--merge
and also use the same testcase for
git am --3way
