status: don't require the repository to be writable
We need to update the index before hooks run when actually making a
commit, but we shouldn't have to write the index when running "status".
If we can, then we have already spent cycles to refresh the index and
it is a waste not to write it out, but it is not a disaster if we cannot
write it out. The main reason the user is running "git status" is to get
the "status", and refreshing the index is a mere side effect that we can
do without.
Makefile: honor NO_CURL when setting REMOTE_CURL_* variables
Previously, these variables were set before there was a chance to set
NO_CURL.
This made a difference only during 'make install', because by installing
$(REMOTE_CURL_ALIASES), the rule tries to access $(REMOTE_CURL_PRIMARY),
which was never installed. On Windows, this fails; on Unix, stale symbolic
links are created.

This gets rid of the whole tree cache refresh. Instead only path that

The original patch that became cfe370c (grep: do not segfault when -f is

the fix addressed the issue that was present as far as in 1.6.4 series.
The maintainer backported the patch to the 1.6.4 maintenance branch, but
failed to notice that the new tests assumed the setup done by the script
in "maint", which did quite a lot more than the same test script in 1.6.4
series, and the output didn't match the expected result.

Make "subtree" part more orthogonal to the rest of merge-recursive.
This makes "subtree" more orthogonal to the rest of recursive merge, so
that you can use subtree and ours/theirs features at the same time. For
example, you can now say:
git merge -s subtree -Xtheirs other
to merge with "other" branch while shifting it up or down to match the
shape of the tree of the current branch, and resolving conflicts favoring
the changes "other" branch made over changes made in the current branch.
It also allows the prefix used to shift the trees to be specified using
the "-Xsubtree=$prefix" option. Giving an empty prefix tells the command
to figure out how much to shift trees automatically as we have always
done. "merge -s subtree" is the same as "merge -s recursive -Xsubtree="
(or "merge -s recursive -Xsubtree").
Based on an old patch done back in the days when git-merge was a script;
Avery ported the script part to builtin-merge.c. Bugs in shift_tree()

MSVC: Fix an "incompatible pointer types" compiler warning
In particular, the following warning is issued while compiling
compat/msvc.c:
...mingw.c(223) : warning C4133: 'function' : incompatible \
types - from '_stati64 *' to '_stat64 *'
which relates to a call of _fstati64() in the mingw_fstat()
function definition.
This is caused by various layers of macro magic and attempts to
avoid macro redefinition compiler warnings. For example, the call
to _fstati64() mentioned above is actually a call to _fstat64(),
and expects a pointer to a struct _stat64 rather than the struct
_stati64 which is passed to mingw_fstat().
The definition of struct _stati64 given in compat/msvc.h had the
same "shape" as the definition of struct _stat64, so the call to
_fstat64() does not actually cause any runtime errors, but the
structure types are indeed incompatible.
In order to avoid the compiler warning, we add declarations for the
mingw_lstat() and mingw_fstat() functions and supporting macros to
msvc.h, suppressing the corresponding declarations in mingw.h, so
that we can use the appropriate structure type (and function) names
from the msvc headers.

Windows: avoid the "dup dance" when spawning a child process
When stdin, stdout, or stderr must be redirected for a child process that
on Windows is spawned using one of the spawn() functions of Microsoft's
C runtime, then there is no choice other than to
1. make a backup copy of fd 0,1,2 with dup
2. dup2 the redirection source fd into 0,1,2
3. spawn
4. dup2 the backup back into 0,1,2
5. close the backup copy and the redirection source
We used this idiom as well -- but we are not using the spawn() functions
anymore!
Instead, we have our own implementation. We had hardcoded that stdin,
stdout, and stderr of the child process were inherited from the parent's
fds 0, 1, and 2. But we can actually specify any fd.
With this patch, the fds to inherit are passed from start_command()'s
WIN32 section to our spawn implementation. This way, we can avoid the
backup copies of the fds.
The backup copies were a bug waiting to surface: The OS handles underlying
the dup()ed fds were inherited by the child process (but were not
associated with a file descriptor in the child). Consequently, the file or
pipe represented by the OS handle remained open even after the backup copy
was closed in the parent process until the child exited.
Since our implementation of pipe() creates non-inheritable OS handles, we
still dup() file descriptors in start_command() because dup() happens to
create inheritable duplicates. (A nice side effect is that the fd cleanup
in start_command is the same for Windows and Unix and remains unchanged.)
Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Our implementation of pipe() must create non-inheritable handles for the
reason that when a child process is started, there is no opportunity to
close the unneeded pipe ends in the child (on POSIX this is done between
fork() and exec()).
Previously, we used the _pipe() function provided by Microsoft's C runtime
(which creates inheritable handles) and then turned the handles into
non-inheritable handles using the DuplicateHandle() API.
Simplify the procedure by using the CreatePipe() API, which can create
non-inheritable handles right from the beginning.

Windows: boost startup by avoiding a static dependency on shell32.dll
This DLL is only needed to invoke the browser in a "git help" call. By
looking up the only function that we need at runtime, we can avoid the
startup costs of this DLL.
DLL usage can be profiled with Microsoft's Dependency Walker. For example,
a call to "git diff-files" loaded
before: 19 DLLs
after: 9 DLLs
As a result, the runtime of 'make -j2 test' went down from 16:00min
to 12:40min on one of my boxes.

A command invocation preceded by variable assignments, i.e.
VAR1=VAL1 VAR2=VAL2 ... command args
are implemented by dash and ksh in such a way not to export these
variables, and keep the values after the command finishes, when the
command is a shell function. POSIX.1 "2.9.5 Function Definition Command"
specifies this behaviour.
Many shells however treat this construct the same way as they are calling
external commands. They export the variables during the duration of
command, and resets their values after command returns.
The test relied on the behaviour of the latter kind.

grep --no-index: allow use of "git grep" outside a git repository
Just like some people wanted diff features that are not found in
other people's diff implementations outside of a git repository
and added --no-index mode to the command, this adds --no-index mode
to the "git grep" command.
Also, inside a git repository, --no-index mode allows you to grep
in untracked (but not ignored) files.
This moves the call to setup_git_directory() for running "grep" from
the "git" wrapper to the implementation of the "grep" subcommand. A
new variable "use_index" is always true at this stage in the series,
and when it is on, we require that we are in a directory that is under
git control. To make sure we die the same way, we make a second call
into setup_git_directory() when we detect this situation.
