Junio C Hamano f31d23a399 Merge branch 'bw/config-h'
Fix configuration codepath to pay proper attention to commondir
that is used in multi-worktree situation, and isolate config API
into its own header file.

  config: don't implicitly use gitdir or commondir
  config: respect commondir
  setup: teach discover_git_directory to respect the commondir
  config: don't include config.h by default
  config: remove git_config_iter
  config: create config.h

Stefan Beller 046b48239e Introduce 'submodule.recurse' option for worktree manipulators
Any command that understands '--recurse-submodules' can have its
default changed to true, by setting the new 'submodule.recurse'
option.

This patch includes read-tree/checkout/reset for working tree
manipulating commands. Later patches will cover other commands.

Stefan Beller d7a3803f9e reset/checkout/read-tree: unify config callback for submodule recursion
The callback function is essentially duplicated 3 times. Remove all
of them and offer a new callback function, that lives in submodule.c

By putting the callback function there, we no longer need the function
'set_config_update_recurse_submodules', nor duplicate the global variable
in each builtin as well as submodule.c

In the three builtins we have different 2 ways how to load the .gitmodules
and config file, which are slightly different. git-checkout has to load
the submodule config all the time due to 23b4c7bcc5 (checkout: Use
submodule.*.ignore settings from .git/config and .gitmodules, 2010-08-28)

git-reset and git-read-tree do not respect these diff settings, so loading
the submodule configuration is optional. Also put that into submodule.c
for code deduplication.

Stefan Beller 58b75bd6db submodule recursing: do not write a config variable twice
The command line option for '--recurse-submodules' is implemented
using an OPTION_CALLBACK, which takes both the callback (that sets
the file static global variable) as well as passes the same file
static global variable to the option parsing machinery to assign it.
This is fixed in this commit by passing NULL as the variable. The
callback sets it instead

Jean-Noel Avila 6c48686263 usability: don't ask questions if no reply is required
There has been a bug report by a corporate user that stated that
"spelling mistake of stash followed by a yes prints character 'y'
infinite times."

This analysis was false. When the spelling of a command contains
errors, the git program tries to help the user by providing candidates
which are close to the unexisting command. E.g Git prints the
following:

        git: 'stahs' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
        Did you mean this?

        stash

and then exits.

The problem with this hint is that it is not formally indicated as an
hint and the user is in fact encouraged to reply to the question,
whereas the Git command is already finished.

The user was unlucky enough that it was the command he was looking
for, and replied "yes" on the command line, effectively launching the
`yes` program.

The initial error is that the Git programs, when launched in
command-line mode (without interaction) must not ask questions,
because these questions would normally require a user input as a reply
that they won't handle indeed. That's a source of confusion on UX
level.

To improve the general usability of the Git suite, the following rule
was applied:

if the sentence
 * appears in a non-interactive session
 * is printed last before exit
 * is a question addressing the user ("you")

the sentence is turned into affirmative and proposes the option.

The basic rewording of the question sentences has been extended to
other spots found in the source.

brian m. carlson bc83266abe Convert lookup_commit* to struct object_id
Convert lookup_commit, lookup_commit_or_die,
lookup_commit_reference, and lookup_commit_reference_gently to take
struct object_id arguments.

Introduce a temporary in parse_object buffer in order to convert this
function.  This is required since in order to convert parse_object and
parse_object_buffer, lookup_commit_reference_gently and
lookup_commit_or_die would need to be converted.  Not introducing a
temporary would therefore require that lookup_commit_or_die take a
struct object_id *, but lookup_commit would take unsigned char *,
leaving a confusing and hard-to-use interface.

parse_object_buffer will lose this temporary in a later patch.

Jeff King 7f897b6f17 avoid using fixed PATH_MAX buffers for refs
Many functions which handle refs use a PATH_MAX-sized buffer
to do so. This is mostly reasonable as we have to write
loose refs into the filesystem, and at least on Linux the 4K
PATH_MAX is big enough that nobody would care. But:

  1. The static PATH_MAX is not always the filesystem limit.

  2. On other platforms, PATH_MAX may be much smaller.

  3. As we move to alternate ref storage, we won't be bound
     by filesystem limits.

Let's convert these to heap buffers so we don't have to
worry about truncation or size limits.

We may want to eventually constrain ref lengths for sanity
and to prevent malicious names, but we should do so
consistently across all platforms, and in a central place
(like the ref code).

Jeff King fd4692ff70 checkout: restrict @-expansions when finding branch
When we parse "git checkout $NAME", we try to interpret
$NAME as a local branch-name. If it is, then we point HEAD
to that branch. Otherwise, we detach the HEAD at whatever
commit $NAME points to.

We do the interpretation by calling strbuf_branchname(), and
then blindly sticking "refs/heads/" on the front. This leads
to nonsense results when expansions like "@{upstream}" or
"@" point to something besides a local branch. We end up
with a local branch name like "refs/heads/origin/master" or
"refs/heads/HEAD".

Normally this has no user-visible effect because those
branches don't exist, and so we fallback to feeding the
result to get_sha1(), which resolves them correctly.

But as the new test in t3204 shows, there are corner cases
where the effect is observable, and we check out the wrong
local branch rather than detaching to the correct one.

Jeff King 0e9f62dab9 interpret_branch_name: allow callers to restrict expansions
The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like
@{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref
names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the
refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and
"@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/").

This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily
interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where
it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a
branch name in refs/heads/.  When we expand to a ref outside
that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git
branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is
nonsense).

Callers can't know from the returned string how the
expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a
branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One
fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the
types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that
the caller can generate precise error messages ("I
understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a
remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local
name").

However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat
cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller
tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in,
and none of the callers give more precise error messages
than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which
should be sufficient).

The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter,
as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name()
through it.

We can break the callers down into two groups:

  1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the
     result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work
     without restrictions. This includes merge_name(),
     the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(),
     and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers
     dwim_ref().

  2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in
     git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of
     the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this
     patch, and will address them individually in follow-on
     patches.

The "core.logAllRefUpdates" that used to be boolean has been

other than the ones that are expected to be updated (i.e. branches,
remote-tracking branches and notes).

Cornelius Weig 341fb28621 refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = always
When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs
that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we
know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and
that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a
hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old
history immediately).

However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log
for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than
the performance implications of keeping the log around.

This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates
option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless
where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like
ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

Junio C Hamano b3e83cc752 hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update()
Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to
prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to
die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.

This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile
API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to
LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().

Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop
translating.  Callers other than the ones that are replaced with
this change pass '0' to the function; no behaviour change is
intended with this patch.

---

Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:

 - diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
   opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
   just before the program exits and nobody should care.

 - builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
   builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
   sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
   updates and they are OK.

 - builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
   but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
   entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
   issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock.  We do diagnose
   and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.

 - wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY.  It asks
   silence, does not check the returned value.  Compare with
   callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
   is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.

Junio C Hamano 31b83f361b Merge branch 'nd/checkout-disambiguation'
"git checkout <word>" does not follow the usual disambiguation
rules when the <word> can be both a rev and a path, to allow
checking out a branch 'foo' in a project that happens to have a
file 'foo' in the working tree without having to disambiguate.
This was poorly documented and the check was incorrect when the
command was run from a subdirectory.

René Scharfe 68e3d6292f introduce CHECKOUT_INIT
Add a static initializer for struct checkout and use it throughout the
code base.  It's shorter, avoids a memset(3) call and makes sure the
base_dir member is initialized to a valid (empty) string.

The two functions in parse_branchname_arg(), verify_non_filename and

and check for their existence. With NULL prefix, they just check paths
at top dir instead.

Thomas Gummerer 610d55af0f add: modify already added files when --chmod is given
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff
machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index
differs from the version on disk.

As the option was supposed to mirror the chmod option in update-index,
which always changes the mode in the index, regardless of the status of
the file, make sure the option behaves the same way in git add.

Johannes Schindelin 548009c0d5 merge_trees(): ensure that the callers release output buffer
The recursive merge machinery accumulates its output in an output
buffer, to be flushed at the end of merge_recursive(). At this point,
we forgot to release the output buffer.

When calling merge_trees() (i.e. the non-recursive part of the recursive
merge) directly, the output buffer is never flushed because the caller
may be merge_recursive() which wants to flush the output itself.

For the same reason, merge_trees() cannot release the output buffer: it
may still be needed.

Forgetting to release the output buffer did not matter much when running
git-checkout, or git-merge-recursive, because we exited after the
operation anyway. Ever since cherry-pick learned to pick a commit range,
however, this memory leak had the potential of becoming a problem.

Johannes Schindelin f241ff0d0a prepare the builtins for a libified merge_recursive()
Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that
code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we
called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a
message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128).

As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed,
idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to
inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into
builtins, using library functions directly.

We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin
git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily
because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to
call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful
advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to
fix that.

The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with
some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees()
is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error()
instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before),
so that the caller can react more flexibly.

This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no
longer dies,  even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling
exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect.

Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already
fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they
now get a chance to say "<command> failed".

A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves
(or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we
leave that change for a later patch.
