Kyle Meyer 755b49ae96 delete_ref: accept a reflog message argument
When the current branch is renamed with 'git branch -m/-M' or deleted
with 'git update-ref -m<msg> -d', the event is recorded in HEAD's log
with an empty message.  In preparation for adding a more meaningful
message to HEAD's log in these cases, update delete_ref() to take a
message argument and pass it along to ref_transaction_delete().
Modify all callers to pass NULL for the new message argument; no
change in behavior is intended.

Note that this is relevant for HEAD's log but not for the deleted
ref's log, which is currently deleted along with the ref.  Even if it
were not, an entry for the deletion wouldn't be present in the deleted
ref's log.  files_transaction_commit() writes to the log if
REF_NEEDS_COMMIT or REF_LOG_ONLY are set, but lock_ref_for_update()
doesn't set REF_NEEDS_COMMIT for the deleted ref because REF_DELETING
is set.  In contrast, the update for HEAD has REF_LOG_ONLY set by
split_head_update(), resulting in the deletion being logged.

Junio C Hamano b6d323f164 Merge branch 'dt/refs-backend-preamble'
In preparation for allowing different "backends" to store the refs
in a way different from the traditional "one ref per file in $GIT_DIR
or in a $GIT_DIR/packed-refs file" filesystem storage, reduce
direct filesystem access to ref-like things like CHERRY_PICK_HEAD
from scripts and programs.

* dt/refs-backend-preamble:
  git-stash: use update-ref --create-reflog instead of creating files
  update-ref and tag: add --create-reflog arg
  refs: add REF_FORCE_CREATE_REFLOG flag
  git-reflog: add exists command
  refs: new public ref function: safe_create_reflog
  refs: break out check for reflog autocreation
  refs.c: add err arguments to reflog functions

David Turner 144c76fa39 update-ref and tag: add --create-reflog arg
Allow the creation of a ref (e.g. stash) with a reflog already in
place. For most refs (e.g. those under refs/heads), this happens
automatically, but for others, we need this option.

Currently, git does this by pre-creating the reflog, but alternate ref
backends might store reflogs somewhere other than .git/logs.  Code
that now directly manipulates .git/logs should instead use git
plumbing commands.

I also added --create-reflog to git tag, just for completeness.

In a moment, we will use this argument to make git stash work with
alternate ref backends.

Michael Haggerty 1c03c4d347 delete_ref(): use the usual convention for old_sha1
The ref_transaction_update() family of functions use the following
convention for their old_sha1 parameters:

* old_sha1 == NULL: Don't check the old value at all.
* is_null_sha1(old_sha1): Ensure that the reference didn't exist
  before the transaction.
* otherwise: Ensure that the reference had the specified value before
  the transaction.

delete_ref() had a different convention, namely treating
is_null_sha1(old_sha1) as "don't care". Change it to adhere to the
standard convention to reduce the scope for confusion.

Please note that it is now a bug to pass old_sha1=NULL_SHA1 to
delete_ref() (because it doesn't make sense to delete a reference that
you already know doesn't exist). This is consistent with the behavior
of ref_transaction_delete().

Most of the callers of delete_ref() never pass old_sha1=NULL_SHA1 to
delete_ref(), and are therefore unaffected by this change. The
two exceptions are:

* The call in cmd_update_ref(), which passed NULL_SHA1 if the old
  value passed in on the command line was 0{40} or the empty string.
  Change that caller to pass NULL in those cases.

  Arguably, it should be an error to call "update-ref -d" with the old
  value set to "does not exist", just as it is for the `--stdin`
  command "delete". But since this usage was accepted until now,
  continue to accept it.

* The call in delete_branches(), which could pass NULL_SHA1 if
  deleting a broken or symbolic ref. Change it to pass NULL in these
  cases.

Michael Haggerty 1618033401 ref_transaction_verify(): new function to check a reference's value
If NULL is passed to ref_transaction_update()'s new_sha1 parameter,
then just verify old_sha1 (under lock) without trying to change the
new value of the reference.

Use this functionality to add a new function ref_transaction_verify(),
which checks the current value of the reference under lock but doesn't
change it.

Use ref_transaction_verify() in the implementation of "git update-ref
--stdin"'s "verify" command to avoid the awkward need to "update" the
reference to its existing value.

Michael Haggerty 0e729c7ed5 update-ref: fix "verify" command with missing <oldvalue>
If "git update-ref --stdin" was given a "verify" command with no
"<newvalue>" at all (not even zeros), the code was mistakenly setting
have_old=0 (and leaving old_sha1 uninitialized). But this is
incorrect: this command is supposed to verify that the reference
doesn't exist. So in this case we really need old_sha1 to be set to
null_sha1 and have_old to be set to 1.

Moreover, since have_old was being set to zero, *no* check of the old
value was being done, so the new value of the reference was being set
unconditionally to the value in new_sha1. new_sha1, in turn, was set
to null_sha1 in the expectation that that was the old value and it
shouldn't be changed. But because the precondition was not being
checked, the result was that the reference was being deleted
unconditionally.

So, if <oldvalue> is missing, set have_old unconditionally and set
old_sha1 to null_sha1.

backends we can report a nice error back to the caller.
While _begin can currently never fail for other reasons than OOM, in which

For example, a hypothetical MySQL backend could fail in _begin with
"Can not connect to MySQL server. No route to host".

complicates the parser and the documentation.

So gently deprecate this usage: remove its description from the
documentation and emit a warning if it is found.  But for reasons of

Replace three functions, update_store_new_sha1(),
update_store_old_sha1(), and parse_next_arg(), with a single function,

including checking whether it is there, converting it to an SHA-1, and
emitting errors on EOF or for invalid values.  The return value
indicates whether the argument was present or absent, which requires
a bit of intelligence because absent values are represented
differently depending on whether "-z" was used.

The new interface means that the calling functions, parse_cmd_*(),
don't have to interpret the result differently based on the
line_termination mode that is in effect.  It also means that
parse_cmd_create() can distinguish unambiguously between an empty new
value and a zeros new value, which fixes a failure in t1400.

Michael Haggerty 595deb8da6 update_refs(): fix constness
The old signature of update_refs() required a
(const struct ref_update **) for its updates_orig argument.  The
"const" is presumably there to promise that the function will not
modify the contents of the structures.

But this declaration does not permit the function to be called with a
(struct ref_update **), which is perfectly legitimate.  C's type
system is not powerful enough to express what we'd like.  So remove
the first "const" from the declaration.

On the other hand, the function *can* promise not to modify the
pointers within the array that is passed to it without inconveniencing
its callers.  So add a "const" that has that effect, making the final
declaration
(struct ref_update * const *).

definition of the input format requires arguments to be terminated by
SP or NUL, so *this* argument is already erroneous and parse_arg()
should diagnose the problem.

So teach parse_arg() to verify that C-quoted arguments are terminated
correctly.  If not, emit a more specific error message.

There is no corresponding error case of a non-C-quoted argument that
is not terminated correctly, because the end of a non-quoted argument
is *by definition* a space or NUL, so there is no way to insert other
junk between the "end" of the argument and the argument terminator.

Adjust the tests to expect the new error message.  Add a docstring to
the function, incorporating the comments that were formerly within the
function plus some added information.

Christian Couder 5955654823 replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any
new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace
existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API
functions.

The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this:

    $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c |
      grep -v strbuf\\.c |
      xargs perl -pi -e '
        s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g;
        s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g;
        s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g;
        s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g;
      '

on the result of preparatory changes in this series.

Brad King c750ba9519 update-ref: support multiple simultaneous updates
Add a --stdin signature to read update instructions from standard input
and apply multiple ref updates together.  Use an input format that
supports any update that could be specified via the command-line,
including object names like "branch:path with space".

Stefan Beller d5d09d4754 Replace deprecated OPT_BOOLEAN by OPT_BOOL
This task emerged from b04ba2bb (parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN,
2011-09-27). All occurrences of the respective variables have
been reviewed and none of them relied on the counting up mechanism,
but all of them were using the variable as a true boolean.

This patch does not change semantics of any command intentionally.

Linus Torvalds 81b50f3ce4 Move 'builtin-*' into a 'builtin/' subdirectory
This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more
pleasant to use auto-completion on the thing. Instead of

	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab>
	Display all 180 possibilities? (y or n)
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-sh
	builtin-shortlog.c     builtin-show-branch.c  builtin-show-ref.c
	builtin-shortlog.o     builtin-show-branch.o  builtin-show-ref.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab>
	builtin-shortlog.c  builtin-shortlog.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c

you get

	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab>		[type]
	builtin/   builtin.h
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin		[auto-completes to]
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab>	[type]
	shortlog.c     shortlog.o     show-branch.c  show-branch.o  show-ref.c     show-ref.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho		[auto-completes to]
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab>	[type]
	shortlog.c  shortlog.o
	[torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c

which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying
break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief.

NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an
editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you
won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it
will just show the choices instead.  I think bash has some cut-off
around 100 choices or something.

So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus
don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion.  But you can
simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar.
