Johannes Sixt e7d5ce8165 mingw: avoid linking to the C library's isalpha()
The implementation of mingw_skip_dos_drive_prefix() calls isalpha() via
has_dos_drive_prefix(). Since the definition occurs long before isalpha()
is defined in git-compat-util.h, my build environment reports:

    CC alloc.o
In file included from git-compat-util.h:186,
                 from cache.h:4,
                 from alloc.c:12:
compat/mingw.h: In function 'mingw_skip_dos_drive_prefix':
compat/mingw.h:365: warning: implicit declaration of function 'isalpha'

Dscho does not see a similar warning in his build and suspects that
ctype.h is included somehow behind the scenes. This implies that his build
links to the C library's isalpha() and does not use git's isalpha().

To fix both the warning in my build and the inconsistency in Dscho's
build, move the function definition to mingw.c. Then it picks up git's
isalpha() because git-compat-util.h is included at the top of the file.

Christian Couder 0e0f761842 dir: simplify untracked cache "ident" field
It is not a good idea to compare kernel versions and disable
the untracked cache if it changes, as people may upgrade and
still want the untracked cache to work. So let's just
compare work tree locations and kernel name to decide if we
should disable it.

Also storing many locations in the ident field and comparing
to any of them can be dangerous if GIT_WORK_TREE is used with
different values. So let's just store one location, the
location of the current work tree.

The downside is that untracked cache can only be used by one
type of OS for now. Exporting a git repo to different clients
via a network to e.g. Linux and Windows means that only one
can use the untracked cache.

If the location changed in the ident field and we still want
an untracked cache, let's delete the cache and recreate it.

Note that if an untracked cache has been created by a
previous Git version, then the kernel version is stored in
the ident field. As we now compare with just the kernel
name the comparison will fail and the untracked cache will
be disabled until it's recreated.

Christian Couder 6d19db1491 update-index: add untracked cache notifications
Attempting to flip the untracked-cache feature on for a random index
file with

    cd /random/unrelated/place
    git --git-dir=/somewhere/else/.git update-index --untracked-cache

would not work as you might expect. Because flipping the feature on
in the index also records the location of the corresponding working
tree (/random/unrelated/place in the above example), when the index
is subsequently used to keep track of files in the working tree in
/somewhere/else, the feature is disabled.

With this patch "git update-index --[test-]untracked-cache" tells the
user in which directory tests are performed. This makes it easy to
spot any problem.

Also in verbose mode, let's tell the user when the cache is enabled
or disabled.

Jeff King 1d094db936 t6300: use test_atom for some un-modern tests
Because this script has to test so many formatters, we have
the nice "test_atom" helper, but we don't use it
consistently. Let's do so. This is shorter, gets rid of some
tests that have their "expected" setup outside of a
test_expect_success block, and lets us organize the changes
better (e.g., putting "refname:short" near "refname").

We also expand the "%(push)" tests a little to match the
"%(upstream)" ones.

Jeff King a2d5156c2b resolve_gitlink_ref: ignore non-repository paths
When we want to look up a submodule ref, we use
get_ref_cache(path) to find or auto-create its ref cache.
But if we feed a path that isn't actually a git repository,
we blindly create the ref cache, and then may die deeper in
the code when we try to access it. This is a problem because
many callers speculatively feed us a path that looks vaguely
like a repository, and expect us to tell them when it is
not.

This patch teaches resolve_gitlink_ref to reject
non-repository paths without creating a ref_cache. This
avoids the die(), and also performs better if you have a
large number of these faux-submodule directories (because
the ref_cache lookup is linear, under the assumption that
there won't be a large number of submodules).

To accomplish this, we also break get_ref_cache into two
pieces: the lookup and auto-creation (the latter is lumped
into create_ref_cache). This lets us first cheaply ask our
cache "is it a submodule we know about?" If so, we can avoid
repeating our filesystem lookup. So lookups of real
submodules are not penalized; they examine the submodule's
.git directory only once.

The test in t3000 demonstrates a case where this improves
correctness (we used to just die). The new perf case in
p7300 shows off the speed improvement in an admittedly
pathological repository:

Test                  HEAD^               HEAD

Jeff King ffd036b128 clean: make is_git_repository a public function
We have always had is_git_directory(), for looking at a
specific directory to see if it contains a git repo. In
0179ca7 (clean: improve performance when removing lots of
directories, 2015-06-15), we added is_git_repository() which
checks for a non-bare repository by looking at its ".git"
entry.

However, the fix in 0179ca7 needs to be applied other
places, too. Let's make this new helper globally available.
We need to give it a better name, though, to avoid confusion
with is_git_directory(). This patch does that, documents
both functions with a comment to reduce confusion, and
removes the clean-specific references in the comments.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 618244e160 worktree: stop supporting moving worktrees manually
The current update_linked_gitdir() has a bug that can create "gitdir"
file in non-multi-worktree setup. Worse, sometimes it can write relative
path to "gitdir" file, which will not work (e.g. "git worktree list"
will display the worktree's location incorrectly)

Instead of fixing this, we step back a bit. The original design was
probably not well thought out. For now, if the user manually moves a
worktree, they have to fix up "gitdir" file manually or the worktree
will get pruned.

This provides about a 45% speedup on git checkout between master and

repostitory structure, number of changes, and packfile packing

Jeff King 1dc413ebe5 filter-branch: resolve $commit^{tree} in no-index case
Commit 348d4f2 (filter-branch: skip index read/write when
possible, 2015-11-06) taught filter-branch to optimize out
the final "git write-tree" when we know we haven't touched
the tree with any of our filters. It does by simply putting
the literal text "$commit^{tree}" into the "$tree" variable,
avoiding a useless rev-parse call.

However, when we pass this to git_commit_non_empty_tree(),
it gets confused; it resolves "$commit^{tree}" itself, and
compares our string to the 40-hex sha1, which obviously
doesn't match. As a result, "--prune-empty" (or any custom
filter using git_commit_non_empty_tree) will fail to drop
an empty commit (when filter-branch is used without a tree
or index filter).

Let's resolve $tree to the 40-hex ourselves, so that
git_commit_non_empty_tree can work. Unfortunately, this is a
bit slower due to the extra process overhead:

  $ cd t/perf && ./run 348d4f2 HEAD p7000-filter-branch.sh
  [...]
  Test                  348d4f2           HEAD
  --------------------------------------------------------------
  7000.2: noop filter   3.76(0.24+0.26)   4.54(0.28+0.24) +20.7%

We could try to make git_commit_non_empty_tree more clever.
However, the value of $tree here is technically
user-visible. The user can provide arbitrary shell code at
this stage, which could itself have a similar assumption to
what is in git_commit_non_empty_tree. So the conservative
choice to fix this regression is to take the 20% hit and
give the pre-348d4f2 behavior. We still end up much faster
than before the optimization:

  $ cd t/perf && ./run 348d4f2^ HEAD p7000-filter-branch.sh
  [...]
  Test                  348d4f2^          HEAD
  --------------------------------------------------------------
  7000.2: noop filter   9.51(4.32+0.40)   4.51(0.28+0.23) -52.6%

Junio C Hamano 719c3da2f1 test-lib: clarify and tighten SANITY
f400e51c (test-lib.sh: set prerequisite SANITY by testing what we
really need, 2015-01-27) improved the way SANITY prerequisite was
determined, but made the resulting code (incorrectly) imply that
SANITY is all about effects of permission bits of the containing
directory has on the files contained in it by the comment it added,
its log message and the actual tests.

State what SANITY is about more clearly in the comment, and test
that a file whose permission bits says should be unreadble truly
cannot be read.

Thomas Gummerer 99c08d4eb2 ls-remote: add support for showing symrefs
Sometimes it's useful to know the main branch of a git repository
without actually downloading the repository.  This can be done by
looking at the symrefs stored in the remote repository.  Currently git
doesn't provide a simple way to show the symrefs stored on the remote
repository, even though the information is available.  Add a --symref
command line argument to the ls-remote command, which shows the symrefs
in the remote repository.

While there, replace a literal tab in the format string with \t to make
it more obvious to the reader.

Thomas Gummerer ba5f28bf79 ls-remote: use parse-options api
Currently ls-remote uses a hand rolled parser for its command line
arguments.  Use the parse-options api instead of the hand rolled parser
to simplify the code and make it easier to add new arguments.  In
addition this improves the help message.

Jeff King d6b16ce914 shortlog: don't warn on empty author
Git tries to avoid creating a commit with an empty author
name or email. However, commits created by older, less
strict versions of git may still be in the history.  There's
not much point in issuing a warning to stderr for an empty
author. The user can't do anything about it now, and we are
better off to simply include it in the shortlog output as an
empty name/email, and let the caller process it however they
see fit.

Older versions of shortlog differentiated between "author
header not present" (which complained) and "author
name/email are blank" (which included the empty ident in the
output).  But since switching to format_commit_message, we
complain to stderr about either case (linux.git has a blank
author deep in its history which triggers this).

We could try to restore the older behavior (complaining only
about the missing header), but in retrospect, there's not
much point in differentiating these cases. A missing
author header is bogus, but as for the "blank" case, the
only useful behavior is to add it to the "empty name"
collection.
