Avoid update hook during git-rebase --interactive

If we are rebasing changes that contain potential whitespace
errors that our .git/hooks/pre-commit hook looks for and fails
on then git-commit will fail to commit that change. This causes
git-rebase--interactive to squash commits together, even though it
was not requested to do so by the todo file.

Passing --no-verify to git-commit makes git-rebase -i behave more
like git-rebase normally would in such conditions, providing more
consistent behavior between the different rebase implementations.

git-svn: workaround a for broken symlinks in SVNEric Wong Wed, 19 Dec 2007 08:06:45 +0000 (00:06 -0800)

git-svn: workaround a for broken symlinks in SVN

It's possible for bad clients to commit symlinks without the
5-character "link " prefix in symlinks. So guard around this
bug in SVN and make a best effort to create symlinks if the
"link " prefix is missing.

More information on this SVN bug is described here:
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2692

To be pedantic, there is still a corner case that neither we nor
SVN can handle: If somebody made a link using a broken SVN
client where "link " is the first part of its path, e.g.
"link sausage", then we'd end up having a symlink which points
to "sausage" because we incorrectly stripped the "link ".
Hopefully this hasn't happened in practice, but if it has,
it's not our fault SVN is broken :)

Thanks to Benoit Sigoure and Sverre Johansen for reporting
and feedback.

git-svn: avoid leaving leftover committer/author info... Eric Wong Sun, 16 Dec 2007 03:08:22 +0000 (19:08 -0800)

git-svn: avoid leaving leftover committer/author info in rebase

We set the 6 environment variables for controlling
committer/author email/name/time for every commit.

We do this in the parent process to be passed to
git-commit-tree, because open3() doesn't afford us the control
of doing it only in the child process. This means we leave them
hanging around in the main process until the next revision comes
around and all 6 environment variables are overwridden again.

Unfortunately, for the last commit, leaving them hanging around
means the git-rebase invocation will pick it up, rewriting the
rebased commit with incorrect author information. This should fix
it.

There was an attempt to list the refs that were rewritten by filtering

Moreover, right before this summary is the loop that actually does the

threaded pack-objects: Use condition variables for thread communication.

In the threaded pack-objects code the main thread and the worker threads
must mutually signal that they have assigned a new pack of work or have
completed their work, respectively. Previously, the code used mutexes that
were locked in one thread and unlocked from a different thread, which is
bogus (and happens to work on Linux).

Here we rectify the implementation by using condition variables: There is
one condition variable on which the main thread waits until a thread
requests new work; and each worker thread has its own condition variable
on which it waits until it is assigned new work or signaled to terminate.

As a cleanup, the worker threads are spawned only after the initial work
packages have been assigned.

Since 930cf7dd7cc6b87d173f182230763e1f1913d319 'blob' action knows the
file type; if the file type is not "text/*" or one of common network
image formats/mimetypes (gif, png, jpeg) then the action "blob"
defaulted to "blob_plain". This caused the problem if mimetypes file
was not well suited for web, for example returning "application/x-sh"
for "*.sh" shell scripts, instead of "text/plain" (or other "text/*").

Now "blob" action defaults to "blob_plain" ('raw' view) only if file
is of type which is neither "text/*" nor "image/{gif,png,jpeg}"
AND it is binary file. Otherwise it assumes that it can be displayed
either in <img> tag ("image/*" mimetype), or can be displayed line by

git-help: add "help.format" config variable.Christian Couder Sat, 15 Dec 2007 04:57:28 +0000 (05:57 +0100)

git-help: add "help.format" config variable.

This config variable makes it possible to choose the default format
used to display help. This format will be used only if no option
like -a|--all|-i|--info|-m|--man|-w|--web is passed to "git-help".

The following values are possible for this variable:

- "man" --> "man" program is used
- "info" --> "info" program is used
- "web" --> "git-browse-help" is used

By default we still show help using "man".

This patch also adds -m|--man command line option to use "man"
to allow overriding the "help.format" configuration variable.

Note that this patch also revert some recent changes in
"git-browse-help" because they prevented to look for config
variables in the global configuration file.

git-svn: handle our top-level path being deleted and later re-added

Previously, git-svn would ignore cases where the path we're
tracking is removed from the repository. This was to prevent
heads with follow-parent from ending up with a tree full of
empty revisions (and thus breaking rename detection).

The previous behavior is fine until the path we're tracking
is re-added later on, leading to the old files being merged
in with the new files in the directory (because the old
files were never marked as deleted)

We will now only remove all the old files locally that were
deleted remotely iff we detect the directory we're in is being
created from scratch.

cvsexportcommit: fix massive commits

Because we feed the changed filenames to CVS on the command
line, it was possible for massive commits to overflow the
system exec limits. Instead, we now do an xargs-like split
of the arguments.

This means that we lose some of the atomicity of calling CVS
in one shot. Since CVS commits are not atomic, but the CVS
protocol is, the possible effects of this are not clear;
however, since CVS doesn't provide a different interface,
this is our only option for large commits (short of writing
a CVS client library).

The argument size limit is arbitrarily set to 64kB. This
should be high enough to trigger only in rare cases where it
is necessary, so normal-sized commits are not affected by
the atomicity change.

Note that although the textual content is basically the same only
"git diff --check" provides a colorized version of the problematic

Unify whitespace checkingWincent Colaiuta Thu, 13 Dec 2007 13:32:29 +0000 (14:32 +0100)

Unify whitespace checking

This commit unifies three separate places where whitespace checking was
performed:

- the whitespace checking previously done in builtin-apply.c is
extracted into a function in ws.c

- the equivalent logic in "git diff" is removed

- the emit_line_with_ws() function is also removed because that also
rechecks the whitespace, and its functionality is rolled into ws.c

The new function is called check_and_emit_line() and it does two things:
checks a line for whitespace errors and optionally emits it. The checking
is based on lines of content rather than patch lines (in other words, the
caller must strip the leading "+" or "-"); this was suggested by Junio on
the mailing list to allow for a future extension to "git show" to display
whitespace errors in blobs.

At the same time we teach it to report all classes of whitespace errors
found for a given line rather than reporting only the first found error.

exclusive, so assign different bits to different results and allow them

settings and use it everywhere.

git-commit: squelch needless message during an empty merge

When recording a merge that conflicted and ends up in no changes after
manual resolution, commit callchain looked like this:

cmd_commit() ->
prepare_log_message() ->
run_status() ->
wt_status_print()

This invocation of run_status() is asked to find out if there is a
committable change, but it unconditionally gave instructions such as
"use git-add" at the same time. When in merge, we do allow an empty
change to be recorded, so after showing this message the code still went
ahead and made a commit.

This introduces "nowarn" parameter to run_status() to avoid these
useless messages. If we are not allowed to create an empty commit, we
already call run_status() again in the original codepath, and the
message will be shown from that call anyway.

git-diff --numstat -z: make it machine readable

The "-z" format is all about machine parsability, but showing renamed
paths as "common/{a => b}/suffix" makes it impossible. The scripts would
never have successfully parsed "--numstat -z -M" in the old format.

This fixes the output format in a (hopefully minimally) backward
incompatible way.

* The output without -z is not changed. This has given a good way for
humans to view added and deleted lines separately, and showing the
path in combined, shorter way would preserve readability.

* The output with -z is unchanged for paths that do not involve renames.
Existing scripts that do not pass -M/-C are not affected at all.

* The output with -z for a renamed path is shown in a format that can
easily be distinguished from an unrenamed path.

This is based on Jakub Narebski's patch. Bugs and documentation typos
are mine.
