Michael Haggerty 2b2a5be394 each_ref_fn: change to take an object_id parameter
Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".

To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().

This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.

Luke Diamand 2dade7a7b2 git-p4: fix handling of multi-word P4EDITOR
This teaches git-p4 to pass the P4EDITOR variable to the
shell for expansion, so that any command-line arguments are
correctly handled. Without this, git-p4 can only launch the
editor if P4EDITOR is solely the path to the binary, without
any arguments.

This also adjusts t9805, which relied on the previous behaviour.

Fredrik Medley 68ee628932 upload-pack: optionally allow fetching reachable sha1
With uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant configuration option set on the
server side, "git fetch" can make a request with a "want" line that names
an object that has not been advertised (likely to have been obtained out
of band or from a submodule pointer). Only objects reachable from the
branch tips, i.e. the union of advertised branches and branches hidden by
transfer.hideRefs, will be processed. Note that there is an associated
cost of having to walk back the history to check the reachability.

This feature can be used when obtaining the content of a certain commit,
for which the sha1 is known, without the need of cloning the whole
repository, especially if a shallow fetch is used. Useful cases are e.g.
repositories containing large files in the history, fetching only the
needed data for a submodule checkout, when sharing a sha1 without telling
which exact branch it belongs to and in Gerrit, if you think in terms of
commits instead of change numbers. (The Gerrit case has already been
solved through allowTipSHA1InWant as every Gerrit change has a ref.)

Jeff King adfe5d0434 sha1_name: implement @{push} shorthand
In a triangular workflow, each branch may have two distinct
points of interest: the @{upstream} that you normally pull
from, and the destination that you normally push to. There
isn't a shorthand for the latter, but it's useful to have.

For instance, you may want to know which commits you haven't
pushed yet:

  git log @{push}..

Or as a more complicated example, imagine that you normally
pull changes from origin/master (which you set as your
@{upstream}), and push changes to your own personal fork
(e.g., as myfork/topic). You may push to your fork from
multiple machines, requiring you to integrate the changes
from the push destination, rather than upstream. With this
patch, you can just do:

  git rebase @{push}

rather than typing out the full name.

The heavy lifting is all done by branch_get_push; here we
just wire it up to the "@{push}" syntax.

Jeff King 48c58471c2 sha1_name: refactor interpret_upstream_mark
Now that most of the logic for our local get_upstream_branch
has been pushed into the generic branch_get_upstream, we can
fold the remainder into interpret_upstream_mark.

Furthermore, what remains is generic to any branch-related
"@{foo}" we might add in the future, and there's enough
boilerplate that we'd like to reuse it. Let's parameterize
the two operations (parsing the mark and computing its
value) so that we can reuse this for "@{push}" in the near
future.

Jeff King e291c75a95 remote.c: add branch_get_push
In a triangular workflow, the place you pull from and the
place you push to may be different. As we have
branch_get_upstream for the former, this patch adds
branch_get_push for the latter (and as the former implements
@{upstream}, so will this implement @{push} in a future
patch).

Note that the memory-handling for the return value bears
some explanation. Some code paths require allocating a new
string, and some let us return an existing string. We should
provide a consistent interface to the caller, so it knows
whether to free the result or not.

We could do so by xstrdup-ing any existing strings, and
having the caller always free. But that makes us
inconsistent with branch_get_upstream, so we would prefer to
simply take ownership of the resulting string. We do so by
storing it inside the "struct branch", just as we do with
the upstream refname (in that case we compute it when the
branch is created, but there's no reason not to just fill
it in lazily in this case).

Jeff King 979cb245e2 remote.c: return upstream name from stat_tracking_info
After calling stat_tracking_info, callers often want to
print the name of the upstream branch (in addition to the
tracking count). To do this, they have to access
branch->merge->dst[0] themselves. This is not wrong, as the
return value from stat_tracking_info tells us whether we
have an upstream branch or not. But it is a bit leaky, as we
make an assumption about how it calculated the upstream
name.

Instead, let's add an out-parameter that lets the caller
know the upstream name we found.

As a bonus, we can get rid of the unusual tri-state return
from the function. We no longer need to use it to
differentiate between "no tracking config" and "tracking ref
does not exist" (since you can check the upstream_name for
that), so we can just use the usual 0/-1 convention for
success/error.

Jeff King 1ca41a1932 remote.c: untangle error logic in branch_get_upstream
The error-diagnosis logic in branch_get_upstream was copied
straight from sha1_name.c in the previous commit. However,
because we check all error cases and upfront and then later
diagnose them, the logic is a bit tangled. In particular:

  - if branch->merge[0] is NULL, we may end up dereferencing
    it for an error message (in practice, it should never be
    NULL, so this is probably not a triggerable bug).

  - We may enter the code path because branch->merge[0]->dst
    is NULL, but we then start our error diagnosis by
    checking whether our local branch exists. But that is
    only relevant to diagnosing missing merge config, not a
    missing tracking ref; our diagnosis may hide the real
    problem.

Instead, let's just use a sequence of "if" blocks to check
for each error type, diagnose it, and return NULL.

Matthieu Moy b12d3e904d rebase -i: fix post-rewrite hook with failed exec command
Usually, when 'git rebase' stops before completing the rebase, it is to
give the user an opportunity to edit a commit (e.g. with the 'edit'
command). In such cases, 'git rebase' leaves the sha1 of the commit being
rewritten in "$state_dir"/stopped-sha, and subsequent 'git rebase
--continue' will call the post-rewrite hook with this sha1 as <old-sha1>
argument to the post-rewrite hook.

The case of 'git rebase' stopping because of a failed 'exec' command is
different: it gives the opportunity to the user to examine or fix the
failure, but does not stop saying "here's a commit to edit, use
--continue when you're done". So, there's no reason to call the
post-rewrite hook for 'exec' commands. If the user did rewrite the
commit, it would be with 'git commit --amend' which already called the
post-rewrite hook.

Fix the behavior to leave no stopped-sha file in case of failed exec
command, and teach 'git rebase --continue' to skip record_in_rewritten if
no stopped-sha file is found.

Matthieu Moy 1d968ca698 rebase -i: demonstrate incorrect behavior of post-rewrite
The 'exec' command is sending the current commit to stopped-sha, which is
supposed to contain the original commit (before rebase). As a result, if
an 'exec' command fails, the next 'git rebase --continue' will send the
current commit as <old-sha1> to the post-rewrite hook.

The test currently fails with :

Sébastien Guimmara 224147704a help: respect new common command grouping
'git help' shows common commands in alphabetical order:

The most commonly used git commands are:
   add        Add file contents to the index
   bisect     Find by binary search the change that introduced a bug
   branch     List, create, or delete branches
   checkout   Checkout a branch or paths to the working tree
   clone      Clone a repository into a new directory
   commit     Record changes to the repository
   [...]

without any indication of how commands relate to high-level
concepts or each other. Revise the output to explain their relationship
with the typical Git workflow:

  These are common Git commands used in various situations:

  start a working area (see also: git help tutorial)
     clone      Clone a repository into a new directory
     init       Create an empty Git repository or reinitialize [...]

  work on the current change (see also: git help everyday)
     add        Add file contents to the index
     reset      Reset current HEAD to the specified state

  examine the history and state (see also: git help revisions)
     log        Show commit logs
     status     Show the working tree status

     [...]

Sébastien Guimmara 2f5b4950b9 command-list.txt: drop the "common" tag
command-list.sh, retired in the previous patch, was the only
consumer of the "common" tag, so drop this now-unnecessary
attribute.

before:
    git-add          mainporcelain        common worktree

after:
    git-add          mainporcelain        worktree

Eric Sunshine 527ec3980b generate-cmdlist: parse common group commands
Parse the group block to create the array of group descriptions:

static char *common_cmd_groups[] = {
    N_("starting a working area"),
    N_("working on the current change"),
    N_("working with others"),
    N_("examining the history and state"),
    N_("growing, marking and tweaking your history"),
};

then map each element of common_cmds[] to a group via its index:

static struct cmdname_help common_cmds[] = {
    {"add", N_("Add file contents to the index"), 1},
    {"branch", N_("List, create, or delete branches"), 4},
    {"checkout", N_("Checkout a branch or paths to the ..."), 4},
    {"clone", N_("Clone a repository into a new directory"), 0},
    {"commit", N_("Record changes to the repository"), 4},
    ...
};

so that 'git help' can print those commands grouped by theme.

Only commands tagged with an attribute from the group block are emitted to
common_cmds[].
