The Makefile tweak NO_ICONV is meant to allow Git to be built without
iconv in case iconv is not installed or is otherwise dysfunctional.
However, NO_ICONV's disabling of iconv is incomplete and can incorrectly
allow "-liconv" to slip into the linker flags when NEEDS_LIBICONV is
defined, which breaks the build when iconv is not installed.
On some platforms, iconv lives directly in libc, whereas, on others it
resides in libiconv. For the latter case, NEEDS_LIBICONV instructs the
Makefile to add "-liconv" to the linker flags. config.mak.uname
automatically defines NEEDS_LIBICONV for platforms which require it.
The adding of "-liconv" is done unconditionally, despite NO_ICONV.
Work around this problem by making NO_ICONV take precedence over
NEEDS_LIBICONV.

The buffer being passed to zlib includes a NUL terminator that git
needs to keep in place. unpack_compressed_entry() attempts to detect
the case that the source buffer hasn't been fully consumed by
checking to see if the destination buffer has been over consumed.
This causes a problem, that more recent zlib patches have been
poisoning the unconsumed portions of the buffer which overwrites
the NUL byte, while correctly returning length and status.
Let's place the NUL at the end of the buffer after inflate returns
to assure that it doesn't result in problems for git even if its
been overwritten by zlib.

Mention that this feature works with some commands (merge and cherry-pick,
implying that it also works with commands that build on these like rebase
-m and rebase -i). Explicitly mentioning two commands hopefully implies
that it may not always work with other commands (am, and rebase without
flags that imply either -m or -i).
Also, since the directory rename detection from this cycle was
specifically added in merge-recursive and not diffcore-rename, remove the
'in "diff" family" phrase from the note. (Folks have requested in the
past that `git diff` detect directory renames and somehow simplify its
output, so it may be helpful to avoid implying that diff has any new
capability here.)

The "autodie" module was added in Perl 5.10.1, but our INSTALL
document says "version 5.8 or later is needed".
As discussed in <87efhfvxzu.fsf@evledraar.gmail.com> this script is in
contrib/, so we might not want to apply that policy, however in this
case "autodie" was recently added as a "gratuitous safeguard" in
786ef50a23 ("git-credential-netrc: accept gpg option",
2018-05-12) (see
<CAHqJXRE8OKSKcck1APHAHccLZhox+tZi8nNu2RA74RErX8s3Pg@mail.gmail.com>).
Looking at it more carefully the addition of "autodie" inadvertently
introduced a logic error, since having it is equivalent to this patch:
@@ -245,10 +244,10 @@ sub load_netrc {
if ($gpgmode) {
my @cmd = ($options{'gpg'}, qw(--decrypt), $file);
log_verbose("Using GPG to open $file: [@cmd]");
- open $io, "-|", @cmd;
+ open $io, "-|", @cmd or die "@cmd: $!";
} else {
log_verbose("Opening $file...");
- open $io, '<', $file;
+ open $io, '<', $file or die "$file: $!$!;
}
# nothing to do if the open failed (we log the error later)
As shown in the context the intent of that code is not do die but to
log the error later.
Per my reading of the file this was the only thing autodie was doing
in this file (there was no other code it altered). So let's remove it,
both to fix the logic error and to get rid of the dependency.

git-p4 originally would fetch changes in one query. On large repos this
could fail because of the limits that Perforce imposes on the number of
items returned and the number of queries in the database.
To fix this, git-p4 learned to query changes in blocks of 512 changes,
However, this can be very slow - if you have a few million changes,
with each chunk taking about a second, it can be an hour or so.
Although it's possible to tune this value manually with the
"--changes-block-size" option, it's far from obvious to ordinary users
that this is what needs doing.
This change alters the block size dynamically by looking for the
specific error messages returned from the Perforce server, and reducing
the block size if the error is seen, either to the limit reported by the
server, or to half the current block size.
That means we can start out with a very large block size, and then let
it automatically drop down to a value that works without error, while
still failing correctly if some other error occurs.

This change lays some groundwork for better handling of rowcount errors
from the server, where it fails to send us results because we requested
too many.
It adds an option to p4CmdList() to return errors as a Python exception.
The exceptions are derived from P4Exception (something went wrong),
P4ServerException (the server sent us an error code) and
P4RequestSizeException (we requested too many rows/results from the
server database).
This makes the code that handles the errors a bit easier.
The default behavior is unchanged; the new code is enabled with a flag.

error message.
For example, if the P4 ticket has expired, you get:
Error: Cannot locate perforce checkout of <path> in client view

the first P4 operation is attempted, and tries to print a meaningful
error message if it fails.

On a daily work with multiple local git branches, the usual way to
submit only a specified commit was to cherry-pick the commit on
master then run git-p4 submit. It can be very annoying to switch
between local branches and master, only to submit one commit. The
proposed new way is to select directly the commit you want to
submit.
Add option --commit to command 'git-p4 submit' in order to submit
only specified commit(s) in p4.
On a daily work developping software with big compilation time, one
may not want to rebase on his local git tree, in order to avoid long
recompilation.
Add option --disable-rebase to command 'git-p4 submit' in order to
disable rebase after submission.

v2.18.0-rc0~90^2 (completion: reduce overhead of clearing cached
--options, 2018-04-18) worked around a bug in bash's "set" builtin on
MacOS by using compgen instead. It was careful to avoid breaking zsh
by guarding this workaround with
if [[ -n ${ZSH_VERSION-}} ]]
Alas, this interacts poorly with git-completion.zsh's bash emulation:
ZSH_VERSION='' . "$script"
Correct it by instead using a new GIT_SOURCING_ZSH_COMPLETION shell
variable to detect whether git-completion.bash is being sourced from
git-completion.zsh. This way, the zsh variant is used both when run
from zsh directly and when run via git-completion.zsh.
Reproduction recipe:
1. cd git/contrib/completion && cp git-completion.zsh _git
2. Put the following in a new ~/.zshrc file:
autoload -U compinit; compinit
autoload -U bashcompinit; bashcompinit
fpath=(~/src/git/contrib/completion $fpath)
3. Open zsh and "git <TAB>".
With this patch:
Triggers nice git-completion.bash based tab completion
Without:
contrib/completion/git-completion.bash:354: read-only variable: QISUFFIX
zsh:12: command not found: ___main
zsh:15: _default: function definition file not found

Commit 159e7b080b (fsck: detect gitmodules files,
2018-05-02) taught fsck to look at the content of
.gitmodules files. If the object turns out not to be a blob
at all, we just complain and punt on checking the content.
And since this was such an obvious and trivial code path, I
didn't even bother to add a test.
Except it _does_ do one non-trivial thing, which is call the
report() function, which wants us to pass a pointer to a
"struct object". Which we don't have (we have only a "struct
object_id"). So we erroneously pass a NULL object to
report(), which gets dereferenced and causes a segfault.
It seems like we could refactor report() to just take the
object_id itself. But we pass the object pointer along to
a callback function, and indeed this ends up in
builtin/fsck.c's objreport() which does want to look at
other parts of the object (like the type).
So instead, let's just use lookup_unknown_object() to get
the real "struct object", and pass that.

Early versions of the fsck .gitmodules detection code
actually required a tree to be at the root of a commit for
it to be checked for .gitmodules. What we ended up with in
159e7b080b (fsck: detect gitmodules files, 2018-05-02),
though, finds a .gitmodules file in _any_ tree (see that
commit for more discussion).
As a result, there's no need to create a commit in our
tests. Let's drop it in the name of simplicity. And since
that was the only thing referencing $tree, we can pull our
tree creation out of a command substitution.
