To prepare for allowing a different "ref" backend to be plugged in
to the system, update_ref()/delete_ref() have been taught about
ref-like things like MERGE_HEAD that are per-worktree (they will
always be written to the filesystem inside $GIT_DIR).
* dt/refs-pseudo:
pseudoref: check return values from read_ref()
sequencer: replace write_cherry_pick_head with update_ref
bisect: use update_ref
pseudorefs: create and use pseudoref update and delete functions
refs: add ref_type function
refs: introduce pseudoref and per-worktree ref concepts
When linked worktree is used, simultaneous "notes merge" instances
for the same ref in refs/notes/* are prevented from stomping on
each other.
* dt/notes-multiple:
notes: handle multiple worktrees
worktrees: add find_shared_symref
The codepath to produce error messages had a hard-coded limit to
the size of the message, primarily to avoid memory allocation while
calling die().
* jk/long-error-messages:
vreportf: avoid intermediate buffer
vreportf: report to arbitrary filehandles
strbuf_read() used to have one extra iteration (and an unnecessary
strbuf_grow() of 8kB), which was eliminated.
* jh/strbuf-read-use-read-in-full:
strbuf_read(): skip unnecessary strbuf_grow() at eof
The command-line completion script (in contrib/) has been updated.
* tb/complete-rebase-i-edit-todo:
completion: offer '--edit-todo' during interactive rebase
git_path() and mkpath() are handy helper functions but it is easy
to misuse, as the callers need to be careful to keep the number of
active results below 4. Their uses have been reduced.
* jk/git-path:
memoize common git-path "constant" files
get_repo_path: refactor path-allocation
find_hook: keep our own static buffer
refs.c: remove_empty_directories can take a strbuf
refs.c: avoid git_path assignment in lock_ref_sha1_basic
refs.c: avoid repeated git_path calls in rename_tmp_log
refs.c: simplify strbufs in reflog setup and writing
path.c: drop git_path_submodule
refs.c: remove extra git_path calls from read_loose_refs
remote.c: drop extraneous local variable from migrate_file
prefer mkpathdup to mkpath in assignments
prefer git_pathdup to git_path in some possibly-dangerous cases
add_to_alternates_file: don't add duplicate entries
t5700: modernize style
cache.h: complete set of git_path_submodule helpers
cache.h: clarify documentation for git_path, et al
"git clone $URL", when cloning from a site whose sole purpose is to
host a single repository (hence, no path after <scheme>://<site>/),
tried to use the site name as the new repository name, but did not
remove username or password when <site> part was of the form
<user>@<pass>:<host>. The code is taught to redact these.
* ps/guess-repo-name-at-root:
clone: abort if no dir name could be guessed
clone: do not use port number as dir name
clone: do not include authentication data in guessed dir
"git clone $URL" in recent releases of Git contains a regression in
the code that invents a new repository name incorrectly based on
the $URL. This has been corrected.
* jk/guess-repo-name-regression-fix:
clone: use computed length in guess_dir_name
clone: add tests for output directory
A negative !ref entry in multi-value transfer.hideRefs
configuration can be used to say "don't hide this one".
* jk/negative-hiderefs:
refs: support negative transfer.hideRefs
docs/config.txt: reorder hideRefs config
Running tests with the "-x" option to make them verbose had some
unpleasant interactions with other features of the test suite.
* jk/test-with-x:
test-lib: disable trace when test is not verbose
test-lib: turn off "-x" tracing during chain-lint check
t1509 test that requires a dedicated VM environment had some
bitrot, which has been corrected.
* ps/t1509-chroot-test-fixup:
tests: fix cleanup after tests in t1509-root-worktree
tests: fix broken && chains in t1509-root-worktree
"git pull" in recent releases of Git has a regression in the code
that allows custom path to the --upload-pack=<program>. This has
been corrected.
Note that this is irrelevant for 'master' with "git pull" rewritten
in C.
* mm/pull-upload-pack:
pull.sh: quote $upload_pack when passing it to git-fetch
* es/doc-clean-outdated-tools:
Documentation/git-tools: retire manually-maintained list
Documentation/git-tools: drop references to defunct tools
Documentation/git-tools: fix item text formatting
Documentation/git-tools: improve discoverability of Git wiki
Documentation/git: drop outdated Cogito reference
Running an aliased command from a subdirectory when the .git thing
in the working tree is a gitfile pointing elsewhere did not work.
* nd/export-worktree:
setup: set env $GIT_WORK_TREE when work tree is set, like $GIT_DIR
Often a fast-import stream builds a new commit on top of the
previous commit it built, and it often unconditionally emits a
"from" command to specify the first parent, which can be omitted in
such a case. This caused fast-import to forget the tree of the
previous commit and then re-read it from scratch, which was
inefficient. Optimize for this common case.
* mh/fast-import-optimize-current-from:
fast-import: do less work when given "from" matches current branch head
The "rev-parse --parseopt" mode parsed the option specification
and the argument hint in a strange way to allow '=' and other
special characters in the option name while forbidding them from
the argument hint. This made it impossible to define an option
like "--pair <key>=<value>" with "pair=key=value" specification,
which instead would have defined a "--pair=key <value>" option.
* ib/scripted-parse-opt-better-hint-string:
rev-parse --parseopt: allow [*=?!] in argument hints
A "rebase" replays changes of the local branch on top of something
else, as such they are placed in stage #3 and referred to as
"theirs", while the changes in the new base, typically a foreign
work, are placed in stage #2 and referred to as "ours". Clarify
the "checkout --ours/--theirs".
* se/doc-checkout-ours-theirs:
checkout: document subtlety around --ours/--theirs
An experimental "untracked cache" feature used uname(2) in a
slightly unportable way.
* cb/uname-in-untracked:
untracked: fix detection of uname(2) failure
"sparse checkout" misbehaved for a path that is excluded from the
checkout when switching between branches that differ at the path.
* as/sparse-checkout-removal:
unpack-trees: don't update files with CE_WT_REMOVE set
The low-level "git send-pack" did not honor 'user.signingkey'
configuration variable when sending a signed-push.
* db/send-pack-user-signingkey:
builtin/send-pack.c: respect user.signingkey
An attempt to delete a ref by pushing into a repositorywhose HEAD
symbolic reference points at an unborn branch that cannot be
created due to ref D/F conflict (e.g. refs/heads/a/b exists, HEAD
points at refs/heads/a) failed.
* jx/do-not-crash-receive-pack-wo-head:
receive-pack: crash when checking with non-exist HEAD
"git subtree" (in contrib/) depended on "git log" output to be
stable, which was a no-no. Apply a workaround to force a
particular date format.
* da/subtree-date-confusion:
contrib/subtree: ignore log.date configuration
Allow untracked cache (experimental) to be used when sparse
checkout (experimental) is also in use.
* dt/untracked-sparse:
untracked-cache: support sparse checkout
An off-by-one error made "git remote" to mishandle a remote with a
single letter nickname.
* mh/get-remote-group-fix:
get_remote_group(): use skip_prefix()
get_remote_group(): eliminate superfluous call to strcspn()
get_remote_group(): rename local variable "space" to "wordlen"
get_remote_group(): handle remotes with single-character names
"git pull --rebase" has been taught to pay attention to
rebase.autostash configuration.
* kd/pull-rebase-autostash:
pull: allow dirty tree when rebase.autostash enabled
The code to perform multi-tree merges has been taught to repopulate
the cache-tree upon a successful merge into the index, so that
subsequent "diff-index --cached" (hence "status") and "write-tree"
(hence "commit") will go faster.
The same logic in "git checkout" may now be removed, but that is a
separate issue.
* dt/unpack-trees-cache-tree-revalidate:
unpack-trees: populate cache-tree on successful merge
Tests that assume how reflogs are represented on the filesystem too
much have been corrected.
* dt/reflog-tests:
tests: remove some direct access to .git/logs
t/t7509: remove unnecessary manipulation of reflog
The "new-worktree-mode" hack in "checkout" that was added in
nd/multiple-work-trees topic has been removed by updating the
implementation of new "worktree add".
* es/worktree-add-cleanup: (25 commits)
Documentation/git-worktree: fix duplicated 'from'
Documentation/config: mention "now" and "never" for 'expire' settings
Documentation/git-worktree: fix broken 'linkgit' invocation
checkout: drop intimate knowledge of newly created worktree
worktree: populate via "git reset --hard" rather than "git checkout"
worktree: avoid resolving HEAD unnecessarily
worktree: make setup of new HEAD distinct from worktree population
worktree: detect branch-name/detached and error conditions locally
worktree: add_worktree: construct worktree-population command locally
worktree: elucidate environment variables intended for child processes
worktree: make branch creation distinct from worktree population
worktree: add: suppress auto-vivication with --detach and no <branch>
worktree: make --detach mutually exclusive with -b/-B
worktree: introduce options container
worktree: simplify new branch (-b/-B) option checking
worktree: improve worktree setup message
branch: publish die_if_checked_out()
checkout: teach check_linked_checkout() about symbolic link HEAD
checkout: check_linked_checkout: simplify symref parsing
checkout: check_linked_checkout: improve "already checked out" aesthetic
...
Remove remaining cruft from "git checkout --to", which
transitioned to "git worktree add".
* es/worktree-add:
config: rename "gc.pruneWorktreesExpire" to "gc.worktreePruneExpire"
Documentation/git-worktree: wordsmith worktree-related manpages
Documentation/config: fix stale "git prune --worktree" reference
Documentation/git-worktree: fix incorrect reference to file "locked"
Documentation/git-worktree: consistently use term "linked working tree"
Code and documentation clean-up to "git bisect".
* ad/bisect-cleanup:
bisect: don't mix option parsing and non-trivial code
bisect: simplify the addition of new bisect terms
bisect: replace hardcoded "bad|good" by variables
Documentation/bisect: revise overall content
Documentation/bisect: move getting help section to the end
bisect: correction of typo
These codepaths attempt to compare the "expected" current value with
the actual current value, but did not check if we successfully read
the current value before comparison.

A test case introduced by ae454f61 (Add tests for wildcard "path vs ref"
disambiguation) allocates a file named '*.c'. This does not work on
Windows, because the OS forbids file names containing wildcard
characters. The test case fails where the shell attempts to allocate the
file. Skip the test on Windows.

A test case introduced by 91479b9c (t7300: add tests to document
behavior of clean and nested git) uses 'chmod 0' to verify that a
subdirectory that has an unreadable .git file is not removed. This can
work only when the system pays attention to the permissions set with
'chmod'. Therefore, set the POSIXPERM prerequisite on the test case.
