Steffen Prohaska 21e5ad50fc safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversions
CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data.
autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to
CRLF during checkout.  A file that contains a mixture of LF and
CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git.  For text
files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings
such that we have only LF line endings in the repository.
But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the
conversion can corrupt data.

If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by
setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes.  Right
after committing you still have the original file in your work
tree and this file is not yet corrupted.  You can explicitly tell
git that this file is binary and git will handle the file
appropriately.

Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with
mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary
files cannot be distinguished.  In both cases CRLFs are removed
in an irreversible way.  For text files this is the right thing
to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files
converting CRLFs corrupts data.

This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about
an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert.  The
mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the
following values:

 - false: disable safecrlf mechanism
 - warn: warn about irreversible conversions
 - true: refuse irreversible conversions

The default is to warn.  Users are only affected by this default
if core.autocrlf is set.  But the current default of git is to
leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless
they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism.

The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command.  The
general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are:

 - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an
   irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the
   original file.

 - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree
   we do not not print annoying warnings.

There are exceptions.  Even though...

 - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the
   next checkout would, so the safety triggers;

 - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files
   in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF
   conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the
   safety does not trigger;

 - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is
   often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add".  To
   catch potential problems early, safety triggers.

The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar
way by Linus Torvalds.  Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting
on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right.

Junio C Hamano b2979ff599 core.whitespace: cr-at-eol
This new error mode allows a line to have a carriage return at the
end of the line when checking and fixing trailing whitespace errors.

Some people like to keep CRLF line ending recorded in the repository,
and still want to take advantage of the automated trailing whitespace
stripping.  We still show ^M in the diff output piped to "less" to
remind them that they do have the CR at the end, but these carriage
return characters at the end are no longer flagged as errors.

Junio C Hamano c1beba5b47 git-apply --whitespace=fix: fix whitespace fuzz introduced by previous run
When you have more than one patch series, an earlier one of which
tries to introduce whitespace breakages and a later one of which
has such a new line in its context, "git-apply --whitespace=fix"
will apply and fix the whitespace breakages in the earlier one,
making the resulting file not to match the context of the later
patch.

A short demonstration is in the new test, t4125.

For example, suppose the first patch is:

    diff a/hello.txt b/hello.txt
    --- a/hello.txt
    +++ b/hello.txt
    @@ -20,3 +20,3 @@
     Hello world.$
    -How Are you$
    -Today?$
    +How are you $
    +today? $

to fix broken case in the string, but it introduces unwanted
trailing whitespaces to the result (pretend you are looking at
"cat -e" output of the patch --- '$' signs are not in the patch
but are shown to make the EOL stand out).  And the second patch
is to change the wording of the greeting further:

    diff a/hello.txt b/hello.txt
    --- a/hello.txt
    +++ b/hello.txt
    @@ -18,5 +18,5 @@
     Greetings $

    -Hello world.$
    +Hello, everybody. $
     How are you $
    -today? $
    +these days? $

If you apply the first one with --whitespace=fix, you will get
this as the result:

    Hello world.$
    How are you$
    today?$

and this does not match the preimage of the second patch, which
demands extra whitespace after "How are you" and "today?".

This series is about teaching "git apply --whitespace=fix" to
cope with this situation better.  If the patch does not apply,
it rewrites the second patch like this and retries:

    diff a/hello.txt b/hello.txt
    --- a/hello.txt
    +++ b/hello.txt
    @@ -18,5 +18,5 @@
     Greetings$

    -Hello world.$
    +Hello, everybody.$
     How are you$
    -today?$
    +these days?$

This is done by rewriting the preimage lines in the hunk
(i.e. the lines that begin with ' ' or '-'), using the same
whitespace fixing rules as it is using to apply the patches, so
that it can notice what it did to the previous ones in the
series.

A careful reader may notice that the first patch in the example
did not touch the "Greetings" line, so the trailing whitespace
that is in the original preimage of the second patch is not from
the series.  Is rewriting this context line a problem?

If you think about it, you will realize that the reason for the
difference is because the submitter's tree was based on an
earlier version of the file that had whitespaces wrong on that
"Greetings" line, and the change that introduced the "Greetings"
line was added independently of this two-patch series to our
tree already with an earlier "git apply --whitespace=fix".

So it may appear this logic is rewriting too much, it is not
so.  It is just rewriting what we would have rewritten in the
past.

Junio C Hamano 61e08ccacb builtin-apply.c: clean-up apply_one_fragment()
We had two pointer variables pointing to the same buffer and an
integer variable used to index into its tail part that was
active (old, oldlines and oldsize for the preimage, and their
'new' counterparts for the postimage).

To help readability, use 'oldlines' as the allocated pointer,
and use 'old' as the pointer to the tail that advances while the
code builds up the contents in the buffer.  The size 'oldsize'
can be computed as (old-oldines).

Junio C Hamano c330fdd42d builtin-apply.c: mark common context lines in lineinfo structure.
This updates the way preimage and postimage in a patch hunk is
parsed and prepared for applying.  By looking at image->line[n].flag,
the code can tell if it is a common context line that is the
same between the preimage and the postimage.

This matters when we actually start applying a patch with
contexts that have whitespace breakages that have already been
fixed in the target file.

Junio C Hamano ecf4c2ec6b builtin-apply.c: optimize match_beginning/end processing a bit.
Wnen the caller knows the hunk needs to match at the beginning
or at the end, there is no point starting from the line number
that is found in the patch and trying match with increasing
offset.  The logic to find matching lines was made more line
oriented with the previous patch and this optimization is now
trivial.

Junio C Hamano b94f2eda99 builtin-apply.c: make it more line oriented
This changes the way git-apply internally works to be more line
oriented.  The logic to find where the patch applies with offset
used to count line numbers by always counting LF from the
beginning of the buffer, but it is simplified because we count
the line length of the target file and the preimage snippet
upfront now.

The ultimate motivation is to allow applying patches
whose preimage context has whitespace corruption that has
already been corrected in the local copy.  For that purpose, we
introduce a table of line-hash that allows us to match lines
that differ only in whitespaces.

Junio C Hamano dc41976a3e builtin-apply.c: push match-beginning/end logic down
This moves the logic to force match at the beginning and/or at
the end of the buffer to the actual function that finds the
match from its caller.  This is a necessary preparation for the
next step to allow matching disregarding certain differences,
such as whitespace changes.

We probably could optimize this even more by taking advantage of
the fact that match_beginning and match_end forces the match to
be at an exact location (anchored at the beginning and/or the
end), but that's for another commit.

Linus Torvalds 7a51ed66f6 Make on-disk index representation separate from in-core one
This converts the index explicitly on read and write to its on-disk
format, allowing the in-core format to contain more flags, and be
simpler.

In particular, the in-core format is now host-endian (as opposed to the
on-disk one that is network endian in order to be able to be shared
across machines) and as a result we can dispense with all the
htonl/ntohl on accesses to the cache_entry fields.

This will make it easier to make use of various temporary flags that do
not exist in the on-disk format.

Junio C Hamano d8c3794503 "git-apply --check" should not report "fixed"
When running "git apply --check" while --whitespace=fix is
enabled (either from the command line or via the configuration),
we reported that "N line(s) applied after _fixing_", but --check
by itself does not apply and this message was alarming.

We could even reword the message to say "N line(s) would have
been applied after fixing...", but this patch does not go that
far.  Instead, we just make it use the "N lines add whitespace
errors" warning, which happens to be a good diagnostic message a
user would expect from the --check option.

For consistency, make the two tools report whitespace errors in the
same way (the output of "diff --check" has been tweaked to match
that of "git apply").

Note that although the textual content is basically the same only
"git diff --check" provides a colorized version of the problematic
lines; making "git apply" do colorization will require more extensive
changes (figuring out the diff colorization preferences of the user)
and so that will be a subject for another commit.

Wincent Colaiuta c1795bb08a Unify whitespace checking
This commit unifies three separate places where whitespace checking was
performed:

 - the whitespace checking previously done in builtin-apply.c is
extracted into a function in ws.c

 - the equivalent logic in "git diff" is removed

 - the emit_line_with_ws() function is also removed because that also
rechecks the whitespace, and its functionality is rolled into ws.c

The new function is called check_and_emit_line() and it does two things:
checks a line for whitespace errors and optionally emits it. The checking
is based on lines of content rather than patch lines (in other words, the
caller must strip the leading "+" or "-"); this was suggested by Junio on
the mailing list to allow for a future extension to "git show" to display
whitespace errors in blobs.

At the same time we teach it to report all classes of whitespace errors
found for a given line rather than reporting only the first found error.

Junio C Hamano cf1b7869f0 Use gitattributes to define per-path whitespace rule
The `core.whitespace` configuration variable allows you to define what
`diff` and `apply` should consider whitespace errors for all paths in
the project (See gitlink:git-config[1]).  This attribute gives you finer
control per path.

For example, if you have these in the .gitattributes:

    frotz   whitespace
    nitfol  -whitespace
    xyzzy   whitespace=-trailing

all types of whitespace problems known to git are noticed in path 'frotz'
(i.e. diff shows them in diff.whitespace color, and apply warns about
them), no whitespace problem is noticed in path 'nitfol', and the
default types of whitespace problems except "trailing whitespace" are
noticed for path 'xyzzy'.  A project with mixed Python and C might want
to have:

    *.c    whitespace
    *.py   whitespace=-indent-with-non-tab

in its toplevel .gitattributes file.

overly long lines and multi-line comment styles (which of course do
not affect the generated code at all).

Pierre Habouzit b315c5c081 strbuf change: be sure ->buf is never ever NULL.
For that purpose, the ->buf is always initialized with a char * buf living
in the strbuf module. It is made a char * so that we can sloppily accept
things that perform: sb->buf[0] = '\0', and because you can't pass "" as an
initializer for ->buf without making gcc unhappy for very good reasons.

strbuf_init/_detach/_grow have been fixed to trust ->alloc and not ->buf
anymore.

as a consequence strbuf_detach is _mandatory_ to detach a buffer, copying
->buf isn't an option anymore, if ->buf is going to escape from the scope,
and eventually be free'd.

API changes:
  * strbuf_setlen now always works, so just make strbuf_reset a convenience
    macro.
  * strbuf_detatch takes a size_t* optional argument (meaning it can be
    NULL) to copy the buffer's len, as it was needed for this refactor to
    make the code more readable, and working like the callers.

git-am used "git apply -z --index-info" to find the original versions
of the files touched by the diff, to be able to do an inexpensive

This operation makes only sense in a repository, since the index
information in the diff refers to blobs, which have to be present in

Pierre Habouzit 663af3422a Full rework of quote_c_style and write_name_quoted.
* quote_c_style works on a strbuf instead of a wild buffer.
* quote_c_style is now clever enough to not add double quotes if not needed.

* write_name_quoted inherits those advantages, but also take a different
  set of arguments. Now instead of asking for quotes or not, you pass a
  "terminator". If it's \0 then we assume you don't want to escape, else C
  escaping is performed. In any case, the terminator is also appended to the
  stream. It also no longer takes the prefix/prefix_len arguments, as it's
  seldomly used, and makes some optimizations harder.

* write_name_quotedpfx is created to work like write_name_quoted and take
  the prefix/prefix_len arguments.

Thanks to those API changes, diff.c has somehow lost weight, thanks to the
removal of functions that were wrappers around the old write_name_quoted
trying to give it a semantics like the new one, but performing a lot of
allocations for this goal. Now we always write directly to the stream, no
intermediate allocation is performed.

As a side effect of the refactor in builtin-apply.c, the length of the bar
graphs in diffstats are not affected anymore by the fact that the path was
clipped.

Pierre Habouzit 7fb1011e61 Rework unquote_c_style to work on a strbuf.
If the gain is not obvious in the diffstat, the resulting code is more
readable, _and_ in checkout-index/update-index we now reuse the same buffer
to unquote strings instead of always freeing/mallocing.

This also is more coherent with the next patch that reworks quoting
functions.

The quoting function is also made more efficient scanning for backslashes
and treating portions of strings without a backslash at once.

Pierre Habouzit 5ecd293d14 Rewrite convert_to_{git,working_tree} to use strbuf's.
* Now, those functions take an "out" strbuf argument, where they store their
  result if any. In that case, it also returns 1, else it returns 0.
* those functions support "in place" editing, in the sense that it's OK to
  call them this way:
    convert_to_git(path, sb->buf, sb->len, sb);
  When doable, conversions are done in place for real, else the strbuf
  content is just replaced with the new one, transparentely for the caller.

If you want to create a new filter working this way, being the accumulation
of filter1, filter2, ... filtern, then your meta_filter would be:

    int meta_filter(..., const char *src, size_t len, struct strbuf *sb)
    {
        int ret = 0;
        ret |= filter1(...., src, len, sb);
        if (ret) {
            src = sb->buf;
            len = sb->len;
        }
        ret |= filter2(...., src, len, sb);
        if (ret) {
            src = sb->buf;
            len = sb->len;
        }
        ....
        return ret | filtern(..., src, len, sb);
    }

That's why subfilters the convert_to_* functions called were also rewritten
to work this way.

Junio C Hamano 09d5dc32fb Simplify cache API
Earlier, add_file_to_index() invalidated the path in the cache-tree
but remove_file_from_cache() did not, and the user of the latter
needed to invalidate the entry himself.  This led to a few bugs due to
missed invalidate calls already.  This patch makes the management of
cache-tree less error prone by making more invalidate calls from lower
level cache API functions.

The rules are:

 - If you are going to write the index, you should either maintain
   cache_tree correctly.

   - If you cannot, alternatively you can remove the entire cache_tree
     by calling cache_tree_free() before you call write_cache().

   - When you modify the index, cache_tree_invalidate_path() should be
     called with the path you are modifying, to discard the entry from
     the cache-tree structure.

 - The following cache API functions exported from read-cache.c (and
   the macro whose names have "cache" instead of "index")
   automatically call cache_tree_invalidate_path() for you:

   - remove_file_from_index();
   - add_file_to_index();
   - add_index_entry();

   You can modify the index bypassing the above API functions
   (e.g. find an existing cache entry from the index and modify it in
   place).  You need to call cache_tree_invalidate_path() yourself in
   such a case.

    memory than asked, so the second test will not fail. It's some kind of
    miracle though.
  * Add size extension hints for strbuf_init and strbuf_read. If 0, default
    applies, else:
      + initial buffer has the given size for strbuf_init.

Junio C Hamano 6b763c424e git-apply: do not read past the end of buffer
When the preimage we are patching is shorter than what the patch
text expects, we tried to match the buffer contents at the
"original" line with the fragment in full, without checking we
have enough data to match in the preimage.  This caused the size
of a later memmove() to wrap around and attempt to scribble
almost the entire address space.  Not good.

The code that follows the part this patch touches tries to match
the fragment with line offsets.  Curiously, that code does not
have the problem --- it guards against reading past the end of

Junio C Hamano 64cab59159 apply: do not get confused by symlinks in the middle
HPA noticed that git-rebase fails when changes involve symlinks
in the middle of the hierarchy.  Consider:

 * The tree state before the patch is applied has arch/x86_64/boot
   as a symlink pointing at ../i386/boot/

 * The patch tries to remove arch/x86_64/boot symlink, and
   create bunch of files there: .gitignore, Makefile, etc.

git-apply tries to be careful while applying patches; it never
touches the working tree until it is convinced that the patch
would apply cleanly.  One of the check it does is that when it
knows a path is going to be created by the patch, it runs
lstat() on the path to make sure it does not exist.

This leads to a false alarm.  Because we do not touch the
working tree before all the check passes, when we try to make
sure that arch/x86_64/boot/.gitignore does not exist yet, we
haven't removed the arch/x86_64/boot symlink.  The lstat() check
ends up seeing arch/i386/boot/.gitignore through the
yet-to-be-removed symlink, and says "Hey, you already have a
file there, but what you fed me is a patch to create a new
file. I am not going to clobber what you have in the working
tree."

We have similar checks to see a file we are going to modify does
exist and match the preimage of the diff, which is done by
directly opening and reading the file.

For a file we are going to delete, we make sure that it does
exist and matches what is going to be removed (a removal patch
records the full preimage, so we check what you have in your
working tree matches it in full -- otherwise we would risk
losing your local changes), which again is done by directly
opening and reading the file.

These checks need to be adjusted so that they are not fooled by
symlinks in the middle.

 - To make sure something does not exist, first lstat().  If it
   does not exist, it does not, so be happy.  If it _does_, we
   might be getting fooled by a symlink in the middle, so break
   leading paths and see if there are symlinks involved.  When
   we are checking for a path a/b/c/d, if any of a, a/b, a/b/c
   is a symlink, then a/b/c/d does _NOT_ exist, for the purpose
   of our test.

   This would fix this particular case you saw, and would not
   add extra overhead in the usual case.

 - To make sure something already exists, first lstat().  If it
   does not exist, barf (up to this, we already do).  Even if it
   does seem to exist, we might be getting fooled by a symlink
   in the middle, so make sure leading paths are not symlinks.

   This would make the normal codepath much more expensive for
   deep trees, which is a bit worrisome.

This patch implements the first side of the check "making sure
it does not exist".  The latter "making sure it exists" check is
not done yet, so applying the patch in reverse would still
fail, but we have to start from somewhere.

Alex Riesen 0afa7644f2 Fix overwriting of files when applying contextually independent diffs
Noticed by applying two diffs of different contexts to the same file.

The check for existence of a file was wrong: the test assumed it was
a directory and reset the errno (twice: directly and by calling
lstat). So if an entry existed and was _not_ a directory no attempt
was made to rename into it, because the errno (expected by renaming
code) was already reset to 0. This resulted in error:

    fatal: unable to write file file mode 100644

For Linux, removing "errno = 0" is enough, as lstat wont modify errno
if it was successful. The behavior should not be depended upon,
though, so modify the "if" as well.

The test simulates this situation.

Users shouldn't supply -p2 unless they mean it.  But if they are
supplying it, they probably have thought about how to make this
patch apply to their working directory, and want to risk whatever
results may come from that.

Junio C Hamano 30ca07a249 _GIT_INDEX_OUTPUT: allow plumbing to output to an alternative index file.
When defined, this allows plumbing commands that update the
index (add, apply, checkout-index, merge-recursive, mv,
read-tree, rm, update-index, and write-tree) to write their
resulting index to an alternative index file while holding a
lock to the original index file.  With this, git-commit that
jumps the index does not have to make an extra copy of the index
file, and more importantly, it can do the update while holding
the lock on the index.

However, I think the interface to let an environment variable
specify the output is a mistake, as shown in the documentation.
If a curious user has the environment variable set to something
other than the file GIT_INDEX_FILE points at, almost everything
will break.  This should instead be a command line parameter to
tell these plumbing commands to write the result in the named
file, to prevent stupid mistakes.

Junio C Hamano cc96fd092a git-apply: Do not free the wrong buffer when we convert the data for writeout
When we write out the result of patch application, we sometimes
need to munge the data (e.g. under core.autocrlf).  After doing
so, what we should free is the temporary buffer that holds the
converted data returned from convert_to_working_tree(), not the
original one.

This patch also moves the call to open() up in the function, as
the caller expects us to fail cheaply if leading directories
need to be created (and then the caller creates them and calls
us again).  For that calling pattern, attempting conversion
before opening the file adds unnecessary overhead.

Shawn O. Pearce dc49cd769b Cast 64 bit off_t to 32 bit size_t
Some systems have sizeof(off_t) == 8 while sizeof(size_t) == 4.
This implies that we are able to access and work on files whose
maximum length is around 2^63-1 bytes, but we can only malloc or
mmap somewhat less than 2^32-1 bytes of memory.

On such a system an implicit conversion of off_t to size_t can cause
the size_t to wrap, resulting in unexpected and exciting behavior.
Right now we are working around all gcc warnings generated by the
-Wshorten-64-to-32 option by passing the off_t through xsize_t().

In the future we should make xsize_t on such problematic platforms
detect the wrapping and die if such a file is accessed.

Johannes Sixt 78a8d641c1 Add core.symlinks to mark filesystems that do not support symbolic links.
Some file systems that can host git repositories and their working copies
do not support symbolic links. But then if the repository contains a symbolic
link, it is impossible to check out the working copy.

This patch enables partial support of symbolic links so that it is possible
to check out a working copy on such a file system.  A new flag
core.symlinks (which is true by default) can be set to false to indicate
that the filesystem does not support symbolic links. In this case, symbolic
links that exist in the trees are checked out as small plain files, and
checking in modifications of these files preserve the symlink property in
the database (as long as an entry exists in the index).

Of course, this does not magically make symbolic links work on such defective
file systems; hence, this solution does not help if the working copy relies
on that an entry is a real symbolic link.

Nicolas Pitre 21666f1aae convert object type handling from a string to a number
We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types
in the code: a string and a numerical value.  One of them is obviously
redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch
of strcmp() all over the place.

This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array
found in object reading code paths.  The patch is unfortunately large but
there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the
system.

Junio C Hamano 63e50d492c git-apply: do not fix whitespaces on context lines.
Internal function apply_line() is called to copy both context lines
and added lines to the output buffer, while possibly fixing the
whitespace breakages depending on --whitespace=strip settings.
However, it did its fix-up on both context lines and added lines.

This resulted in two symptoms:

 (1) The number of lines reported to have been fixed up included
     these context lines.

 (2) However, the lines actually shown were limited to the added
     lines that had whitespace breakages.

Junio C Hamano 3e8a5db966 git-apply: guess correct -p<n> value for non-git patches.
This enhances the third point in the previous commit.  When
applying a non-git patch that begins like this:

	--- 2.6.orig/mm/slab.c
	+++ 2.6/mm/slab.c
	@@ -N,M +L,K @@@
	...

and if you are in 'mm' subdirectory, we notice that -p2 is the
right option to use to apply the patch in file slab.c in the
current directory (i.e. mm/slab.c)

The guess function also knows about this pattern, where you
would need to use -p0 if applying from the top-level:

	--- mm/slab.c
	+++ mm/slab.c
	@@ -N,M +L,K @@@

Junio C Hamano 9987d7c58a git-apply: notice "diff --git" patch again
Earlier one that tried to be too consistent with GNU patch by
not stripping the leading path when we _know_ we are in a
subdirectory and the patch is relative to the toplevel was a
mistake.  This fixes it.

 - No change to behaviour when it is run from the toplevel of
   the repository.

 - When run from a subdirectory to apply a git-generated patch,
   it uses the right -p<n> value automatically, with or without
   --index nor --cached option.

 - When run from a subdirectory to apply a randomly generated
   patch, it wants the right -p<n> value to be given by the
   user.

The second one is a pure improvement to correct inconsistency
between --index and non --index case, compared with 1.5.0.  The
third point could be further improved to guess what the right
value for -p<n> should be by looking at the patch, but should be
a topic of a separate patch.

Junio C Hamano cc44c7655f Mechanical conversion to use prefixcmp()
This mechanically converts strncmp() to use prefixcmp(), but only when
the parameters match specific patterns, so that they can be verified

idiotic conversions like

Junio C Hamano 56185f49d0 git-apply: require -p<n> when working in a subdirectory.
git-apply running inside a subdirectory, with or without --index,
used to always assume that the patch is formatted in such a way
to apply with -p1 from the toplevel, but it is more useful and
consistent with the use of "GNU patch -p1" if it defaulted to
assume that its input is meant to apply at the level it is
invoked in.

This changes the behaviour.  It used to be that the patch
generated this way would apply without any trick:

	edit Documentation/Makefile
	git diff >patch.file
	cd Documentation
	git apply ../patch.file

You need to give an explicit -p2 to git-apply now.  On the other
hand, if you got a patch from somebody else who did not follow
"patch is to apply from the top with -p1" convention, the input
patch would start with:

	diff -u Makefile.old Makefile
	--- Makefile.old
	+++ Makefile

and in such a case, you can apply it with:

	git apply -p0 patch.file

Junio C Hamano aea1945744 git-apply: do not lose cwd when run from a subdirectory.
When a patch modifies (not deletes) the last file in a
directory, because we treat a modification just as deletion
followed by creation, and deleting the last file in a directory
automatically rmdir(2)'s that directory, we ended up removing
the directory, which can potentially be the cwd, and then
recreating the same directory to create the patch result.

Avoid the rmdir step when remove_file() is called only because
we are replacing it with the result by later calling
create_file().

When neither --index nor --cached was used, git-apply did not
try calling setup_git_directory(), which means it did not look
at configuration files at all.  This fixes it to call the setup
function but still allow the command to be run in a directory
not controlled by git.

The bug probably meant that 'git apply', not moving up to the
toplevel, did not apply properly formatted diffs from the
toplevel when you are inside a subdirectory, even though 'git
apply --index' would.  As a side effect, this patch fixes it as
well.
