t7501.9 tries to check that "git commit" will fail when the
index is unchanged. It relies on previous tests not to have
modified the index. When it was originally written, this was
always the case. However, commit c65dc35 (t7501: test the
right kind of breakage, 2012-03-30) changed earlier tests (4
and 5) to leave a modification in the index.
We never noticed, however, because t7501.7, between the two,
clears the index state as a side effect. However, that test
depends on the PERL prerequisite, and so it does not always
run. Therefore if NO_PERL is set, we do not run the
intervening test, the index is left unclean, and t7501.9
fails.
We could fix this by moving t7501.9 up in the script.
However, this patch instead leaves it in place and adds a
"git reset" before the commit. This makes the test more
explicit about its preconditions, and will future-proof it
against any other changes in the test state.

In the original shell version of git-repack, any options
destined for pack-objects were left as strings, and passed
as a whole. Since the C rewrite in commit a1bbc6c (repack:
rewrite the shell script in C, 2013-09-15), we now parse
these values to integers internally, then reformat the
integers when passing the option to pack-objects.
This has the advantage that we catch format errors earlier
(i.e., when repack is invoked, rather than when pack-objects
is invoked).
It has three disadvantages, though:
1. Our internal data types may not be the right size. In
the case of "--window-memory" and "--max-pack-size",
these are "unsigned long" in pack-objects, but we can
only represent a regular "int".
2. Our parsing routines might not be the same as those of
pack-objects. For the two options above, pack-objects
understands "100m" to mean "100 megabytes", but repack
does not.
3. We have to keep a sentinel value to know whether it is
worth passing the option along. In the case of
"--window-memory", we currently do not pass it if the
value is "0". But that is a meaningful value to
pack-objects, where it overrides any configured value.
We can fix all of these by simply passing the strings from
the user along to pack-objects verbatim. This does not
actually fix anything for "--depth" or "--window", but these
are converted, too, for consistency.

are typically inspected by installers to decide whether a file to be

for much else.
We can be pretty certain that there are no tools that look at these

git p4: handle files with wildcards when doing RCS scrubbing

fixed problems with handling files that had p4 wildcard

Generating the submit template for p4 uses tempfile.mkstemp(),
which by default puts files in /tmp. For a test that fails,
possibly on purpose, this is not cleaned up. Run with TMPDIR
pointing into the trash directory so the temp files go away
with the test results.
To do this required some other minor changes. First, the editor
is launched using system(editor + " " + template_file), using
shell expansion to build the command string. This doesn't work
if editor has a space in it. And is generally unwise as it's
easy to fool the shell into doing extra work. Exec the args
directly, without shell expansion.
Second, without shell expansion, the trick of "P4EDITOR=:" used
in the tests doesn't work. Use a real command, true, as the

git p4: work around p4 bug that causes empty symlinks
Damien Gérard highlights an interesting problem. Some p4
repositories end up with symlinks that have an empty target. It
is not possible to create this with current p4, but they do
indeed exist.
The effect in git p4 is that "p4 print" on the symlink returns an
empty string, confusing the curret symlink-handling code.
Such broken repositories cause problems in p4 as well, even with
no git involved. In p4, syncing to a change that includes a
bogus symlink causes errors:
//depot/empty-symlink - updating /home/me/p4/empty-symlink
rename: /home/me/p4/empty-symlink: No such file or directory
and leaves no symlink.
In git, replicate the p4 behavior by ignoring these bad symlinks.
If, in a later p4 revision, the symlink happens to point to
something non-null, the symlink will be replaced properly.
Add a big test for all this too.
This happens to be a regression introduced by 1292df1 (git-p4:
Fix occasional truncation of symlink contents., 2013-08-08) and
appeared first in 1.8.5. But it shows up only in p4 repositories
of dubious character, so can wait for a proper release.

list-objects: only look at cmdline trees with edge_hint
When rev-list is given a command-line like:
git rev-list --objects $commit --not --all
the most accurate answer is the difference between the set
of objects reachable from $commit and the set reachable from
all of the existing refs. However, we have not historically
provided that answer, because it is very expensive to
calculate. We would have to open every tree of every commit
in the entire history.
Instead, we find the accurate set difference of the
reachable commits, and then mark the trees at the boundaries
as uninteresting. This misses objects which appear in the
trees of both the interesting commits and deep within the
uninteresting history.
Commit fbd4a70 (list-objects: mark more commits as edges in
mark_edges_uninteresting, 2013-08-16) noticed that we miss
those objects during pack-objects, and added code to examine
the trees of all of the "--not" refs given on the
command-line. Note that this is still not the complete set
difference, because we look only at the tips of the
command-line arguments, not all of their reachable commits.
But it increases the set of boundary objects we consider,
which is especially important for shallow fetches. So we
are trading extra CPU time for a larger set of boundary
objects, which can improve the resulting pack size for a
--thin pack.
This tradeoff probably makes sense in the context of
pack-objects, where we have set revs->edge_hint to have the
traversal feed us the set of boundary objects. For a
regular rev-list, though, it is probably not a good
tradeoff. It is true that it makes our list slightly closer
to a true set difference, but it is a rare case where this
is important. And because we do not have revs->edge_hint
set, we do nothing useful with the larger set of boundary
objects.
This patch therefore ties the extra tree examination to the
revs->edge_hint flag; it is the presence of that flag that
makes the tradeoff worthwhile.
Here is output from the p0001-rev-list showing the
improvement in performance:
We time a straight "rev-list --all" and its "--object"
counterpart, both going all the way to the root. However, we
do not time a partial history walk. This patch adds an
extreme case: a walk over a very small slice of history, but
with a very large set of UNINTERESTING tips. This is similar
to the connectivity check run by git on a small fetch, or
the walk done by any pre-receive hooks that want to check
incoming commits.
This test reveals a performance regression in git v1.8.4.2,
caused by fbd4a70 (list-objects: mark more commits as edges
in mark_edges_uninteresting, 2013-08-16):
The @{-N} syntax always referred to the N-th last thing checked out,
which can be either a branch or a commit (for detached HEAD cases).
However, the documentation only mentioned branches.

rename_tmp_log(): handle a possible mkdir/rmdir race
If a directory vanishes while renaming the temporary reflog file,
retry (up to 3 times). This could happen if another process deletes
the directory created by safe_create_leading_directories() just before
we rename the file into the directory.
As far as I can tell, this race could not occur internal to git. The
only time that a directory under $GIT_DIR/logs is deleted is if room
has to be made for a log file for a reference with the same name;
for example, in the following sequence:
lock_ref_sha1_basic(): if locking fails with ENOENT, retry
If hold_lock_file_for_update() fails with errno==ENOENT, it might be
because somebody else (for example, a pack-refs process) has just
deleted one of the lockfile's ancestor directories. So if this
condition is detected, try again (up to 3 times).

If safe_create_leading_directories() fails because a file along the

are left behind. If a pack-refs process is running, then it might
delete a directory that we need to put a new loose reference in.
If safe_create_leading_directories() thinks this might have happened,
then take its advice and try again (maximum three attempts).
