500a04f196 replace_object: don't check read_replace_refs twice
Since e1111cef (inline lookup_replace_object() calls,
May 15 2011) the read_replace_refs global variable is
checked twice, once in lookup_replace_object() and
once again in do_lookup_replace_object().

As do_lookup_replace_object() is called only from
lookup_replace_object(), we can remove the check in
do_lookup_replace_object().

ffe68cf9ac rename READ_SHA1_FILE_REPLACE flag to LOOKUP_REPLACE_OBJECT
The READ_SHA1_FILE_REPLACE flag is more related to using the
lookup_replace_object() function rather than the
read_sha1_file() function.

We also need such a flag to be used with sha1_object_info()
instead of read_sha1_file().

The name LOOKUP_REPLACE_OBJECT is therefore better for this
flag.

6554dfa97a cat-file: handle --batch format with missing type/size
Commit 98e2092 taught cat-file to stream blobs with --batch,
which requires that we look up the object type before
loading it into memory.  As a result, we now print the
object header from information in sha1_object_info, and the
actual contents from the read_sha1_file. We double-check
that the information we printed in the header matches the
content we are about to show.

Later, commit 93d2a60 allowed custom header lines for
--batch, and commit 5b08640 made type lookups optional. As a
result, specifying a header line without the type or size
means that we will not look up those items at all.

This causes our double-checking to erroneously die with an
error; we think the type or size has changed, when in fact
it was simply left at "0".

For the size, we can fix this by only doing the consistency
double-check when we have retrieved the size via
sha1_object_info. In the case that we have not retrieved the
value, that means we also did not print it, so there is
nothing for us to check that we are consistent with.

We could do the same for the type. However, besides our
consistency check, we also care about the type in deciding
whether to stream or not. So instead of handling the case
where we do not know the type, this patch instead makes sure
that we always trigger a type lookup when we are printing,
so that even a format without the type will stream as we
would in the normal case.

370c9268d1 cat-file: pass expand_data to print_object_or_die
We currently individually pass the sha1, type, and size
fields calculated by sha1_object_info. However, if we pass
the whole struct, the called function can make more
intelligent decisions about which fields were actually
filled by sha1_object_info.

This patch takes that first refactoring step, passing the
whole struct, so further patches can make those decisions
with less noise in their diffs. There should be no
functional change to this patch (aside from a minor typo fix
in the error message).

As a side effect, we can rename the local variables in the
function to "type" and "size", since the names are no longer
taken.

0d7d285f0e clone: use git protocol for cloning shallow repo locally
clone_local() does not handle $SRC/shallow. It could be made so, but
it's simpler to use fetch-pack/upload-pack instead.

This used to be caught by the check in upload-pack, which is triggered
by transport_get_remote_refs(), even in local clone case. The check is
now gone and check_everything_connected() should catch the result
incomplete repo. But check_everything_connected() will soon be skipped
in local clone case, opening a door to corrupt repo. This patch should
close that door.

0a1bc12b6e receive-pack: allow pushes that update .git/shallow
The basic 8 steps to update .git/shallow does not fully apply here
because the user may choose to accept just a few refs (while fetch
always accepts all refs). The steps are modified a bit.

1-6. same as before. After calling assign_shallow_commits_to_refs at
   step 6, each shallow commit has a bitmap that marks all refs that
   require it.

7. mark all "ours" shallow commits that are reachable from any
   refs. We will need to do the original step 7 on them later.

8. go over all shallow commit bitmaps, mark refs that require new
   shallow commits.

9. setup a strict temporary shallow file to plug all the holes, even
   if it may cut some of our history short. This file is used by all
   hooks. The hooks could use --shallow-file=$GIT_DIR/shallow to
   overcome this and reach everything in current repo.

10. go over the new refs one by one. For each ref, do the reachability
   test if it needs a shallow commit on the list from step 7. Remove
   it if it's reachable from our refs. Gather all required shallow
   commits, run check_everything_connected() with the new ref, then
   install them to .git/shallow.

This mode is disabled by default and can be turned on with
receive.shallowupdate

received, but .git/shallow is not settled yet. A temporary shallow

--shallow-file does not work in this case because the hook may spawn

79d3a236c5 upload-pack: make sure deepening preserves shallow roots
When "fetch --depth=N" where N exceeds the longest chain of history in
the source repo, usually we just send an "unshallow" line to the
client so full history is obtained.

When the source repo is shallow we need to make sure to "unshallow"
the current shallow point _and_ "shallow" again when the commit
reaches its shallow bottom in the source repo.

This should fix both cases: large <N> and --unshallow.

4820a33baa fetch: support fetching from a shallow repository
This patch just put together pieces from the 8 steps patch. We stop at
step 7 and reject refs that require new shallow commits.

Note that, by rejecting refs that require new shallow commits, we
leave dangling objects in the repo, which become "object islands" by
the next "git fetch" of the same source.

If the first fetch our "ours" set is zero and we do practically
nothing at step 7, "ours" is full at the next fetch and we may need to
walk through commits for reachability test. Room for improvement.

beea4152d9 clone: support remote shallow repository
Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new
.git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all
refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom.

Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more
importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's
probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others
are dropped.

One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A
shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's
attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not
reachable by any refs).

If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send
more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we
incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will
not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not
desired.

Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for
security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a
tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster
everyday.

A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8
steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the
shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

58babfffde shallow.c: the 8 steps to select new commits for .git/shallow
Suppose a fetch or push is requested between two shallow repositories
(with no history deepening or shortening). A pack that contains
necessary objects is transferred over together with .git/shallow of
the sender. The receiver has to determine whether it needs to update
.git/shallow if new refs needs new shallow comits.

The rule here is avoid updating .git/shallow by default. But we don't
want to waste the received pack. If the pack contains two refs, one
needs new shallow commits installed in .git/shallow and one does not,
we keep the latter and reject/warn about the former.

Even if .git/shallow update is allowed, we only add shallow commits
strictly necessary for the former ref (remember the sender can send
more shallow commits than necessary) and pay attention not to
accidentally cut the receiver history short (no history shortening is
asked for)

So the steps to figure out what ref need what new shallow commits are:

1. Split the sender shallow commit list into "ours" and "theirs" list
   by has_sha1_file. Those that exist in current repo in "ours", the
   remaining in "theirs".

2. Check the receiver .git/shallow, remove from "ours" the ones that
   also exist in .git/shallow.

3. Fetch the new pack. Either install or unpack it.

4. Do has_sha1_file on "theirs" list again. Drop the ones that fail
   has_sha1_file. Obviously the new pack does not need them.

5. If the pack is kept, remove from "ours" the ones that do not exist
   in the new pack.

6. Walk the new refs to answer the question "what shallow commits,
   both ours and theirs, are required in .git/shallow in order to add
   this ref?". Shallow commits not associated to any refs are removed
   from their respective list.

7. (*) Check reachability (from the current refs) of all remaining
   commits in "ours". Those reachable are removed. We do not want to
   cut any part of our (reachable) history. We only check up
   commits. True reachability test is done by
   check_everything_connected() at the end as usual.

8. Combine the final "ours" and "theirs" and add them all to
   .git/shallow. Install new refs. The case where some hook rejects
   some refs on a push is explained in more detail in the push
   patches.

Of these steps, #6 and #7 are expensive. Both require walking through
some commits, or in the worst case all commits. And we rather avoid
them in at least common case, where the transferred pack does not
contain any shallow commits that the sender advertises. Let's look at
each scenario:

1) the sender has longer history than the receiver

   All shallow commits from the sender will be put into "theirs" list
   at step 1 because none of them exists in current repo. In the
   common case, "theirs" becomes empty at step 4 and exit early.

2) the sender has shorter history than the receiver

   All shallow commits from the sender are likely in "ours" list at
   step 1. In the common case, if the new pack is kept, we could empty
   "ours" and exit early at step 5.

   If the pack is not kept, we hit the expensive step 6 then exit
   after "ours" is emptied. There'll be only a handful of objects to
   walk in fast-forward case. If it's forced update, we may need to
   walk to the bottom.

3) the sender has same .git/shallow as the receiver

   This is similar to case 2 except that "ours" should be emptied at
   step 2 and exit early.

A fetch after "clone --depth=X" is case 1. A fetch after "clone" (from
a shallow repo) is case 3. Luckily they're cheap for the common case.

A push from "clone --depth=X" falls into case 2, which is expensive.
Some more work may be done at the sender/client side to avoid more
work on the server side: if the transferred pack does not contain any
shallow commits, send-pack should not send any shallow commits to the
receive-pack, effectively turning it into a normal push and avoid all
steps.

This patch implements all steps except #3, already handled by
fetch-pack and receive-pack, #6 and #7, which has their own patch due
to their size.

(*) in previous versions step 7 was put before step 3. I reorder it so
    that the common case that keeps the pack does not need to walk
    commits at all. In future if we implement faster commit
    reachability check (maybe with the help of pack bitmaps or commit
    cache), step 7 could become cheap and be moved up before 6 again.

ad491366de make the sender advertise shallow commits to the receiver
If either receive-pack or upload-pack is called on a shallow
repository, shallow commits (*) will be sent after the ref
advertisement (but before the packet flush), so that the receiver has
the full "shape" of the sender's commit graph. This will be needed for
the receiver to update its .git/shallow if necessary.

This breaks the protocol for all clients trying to push to a shallow
repo, or fetch from one. Which is basically the same end result as
today's "is_repository_shallow() && die()" in receive-pack and
upload-pack. New clients will be made aware of shallow upstream and
can make use of this information.

The sender must send all shallow commits that are sent in the
following pack. It may send more shallow commits than necessary.

upload-pack for example may choose to advertise no shallow commits if
it knows in advance that the pack it's going to send contains no
shallow commits. But upload-pack is the server, so we choose the
cheaper way, send full .git/shallow and let the client deal with it.

Smart HTTP is not affected by this patch. Shallow support on
smart-http comes later separately.

(*) A shallow commit is a commit that terminates the revision
    walker. It is usually put in .git/shallow in order to keep the
    revision walker from going out of bound because there is no
    guarantee that objects behind this commit is available.

ad8261d212 rebase: use reflog to find common base with upstream
Commit 15a147e (rebase: use @{upstream} if no upstream specified,
2011-02-09) says:

	Make it default to 'git rebase @{upstream}'. That is also what
	'git pull [--rebase]' defaults to, so it only makes sense that
	'git rebase' defaults to the same thing.

but that isn't actually the case.  Since commit d44e712 (pull: support
rebased upstream + fetch + pull --rebase, 2009-07-19), pull has actually
chosen the most recent reflog entry which is an ancestor of the current
branch if it can find one.

Add a '--fork-point' argument to git-rebase that can be used to trigger
this behaviour.  This option is turned on by default if no non-option
arguments are specified on the command line, otherwise we treat an
upstream specified on the command-line literally.

c59ab2e52a connect.c: refactor url parsing
Make the function is_local() in transport.c public, rename it into
url_is_local_not_ssh() and use it in both transport.c and connect.c

Use a protocol "local" for URLs for the local file system.

One note about using file:// under Windows:

The (absolute) path on Unix like system typically starts with "/".
When the host is empty, it can be omitted, so that a shell scriptlet
url=file://$pwd
will give a URL like "file:///home/user/repo".

Windows does not have the same concept of a root directory located in "/".
When parsing the URL allow "file://C:/user/repo"
(even if RFC1738 indicates that "file:///C:/user/repo" should be used).

83b0587527 git_connect(): refactor the port handling for ssh
Use get_host_and_port() even for ssh.
Remove the variable port git_connect(), and simplify parse_connect_url()
Use only one return point in git_connect(), doing the free() and return conn.

t5601 had 2 corner test cases which now pass.

6a59974869 git fetch: support host:/~repo
The documentation (in urls.txt) says that

    "ssh://host:/~repo",
    "host:/~repo" or
    "host:~repo"

specify the repository "repo" in the home directory at "host".

This has not been working for "host:/~repo".

Before commit 356bec "Support [address] in URLs", the comparison
"url != hostname" could be used to determine if the URL had a scheme
or not: "ssh://host/host" != "host".

However, after 356bec "[::1]" was converted into "::1", yielding
url != hostname as well.  To fix this regression, don't use
"if (url != hostname)", but look at the separator instead.

Rename the variable "c" into "separator" to make it easier to read.

854aeb7beb t5500: add test cases for diag-url
Add test cases using git fetch-pack --diag-url:

- parse out host and path for URLs with a scheme (git:// file:// ssh://)
- parse host names embedded by [] correctly
- extract the port number, if present
- separate URLs like "file" (which are local)
  from URLs like "host:repo" which should use ssh

5610b7c0c6 git fetch-pack: add --diag-url
The main purpose is to trace the URL parser called by git_connect() in
connect.c

The main features of the parser can be listed as this:

- parse out host and path for URLs with a scheme (git:// file:// ssh://)
- parse host names embedded by [] correctly
- extract the port number, if present
- separate URLs like "file" (which are local)
  from URLs like "host:repo" which should use ssh

Add the new parameter "--diag-url" to "git fetch-pack", which prints
the value for protocol, host and path to stderr and exits.

cabc3c12e4 git_connect: factor out discovery of the protocol and its parts
git_connect has grown large due to the many different protocols syntaxes
that are supported. Move the part of the function that parses the URL to

d98d109979 git_connect: remove artificial limit of a remote command
Since day one, function git_connect() had a limit on the command line of
the command that is invoked to make a connection. 7a33bcbe converted the
code that constructs the command to strbuf. This would have been the
right time to remove the limit, but it did not happen. Remove it now.

git_connect() uses start_command() to invoke the command; consequently,
the limits of the system still apply, but are diagnosed only at execve()
time. But these limits are more lenient than the 1K that git_connect()
imposed.

62f162f8e7 rev-parse: be more careful with munging arguments
When rev-parse looks at whether an argument like "foo..bar" or
"foobar^@" is a difference or parent-shorthand, it internally
munges the arguments so that it can pass the individual rev
arguments to get_sha1(). However, we do not consistently un-munge
the result.

For cases where we do not match (e.g., "doesnotexist..HEAD"), we
would then want to try to treat the argument as a filename.
try_difference gets() this right, and always unmunges in this case.
However, try_parent_shorthand() never unmunges, leading to incorrect
error messages, or even incorrect results:

  $ git rev-parse foobar^@
  foobar
  fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
  Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
  'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

  $ >foobar
  $ git rev-parse foobar^@
  foobar

For cases where we do match, neither function unmunges. This does
not currently matter, since we are done with the argument. However,
a future patch will do further processing, and this prepares for
it. In addition, it's simply a confusing interface for some cases to
modify the const argument, and others not to.

Oftentimes people will make the same change in two branches, revert the change
in one branch, and then be surprised when a merge reinstitutes that change when
the branches are merged.  Add an explanatory paragraph that explains that this
occurs and the reason why, so people are not surprised.
