Call clear_pathspec() at the end of various functions that work with
and allocate a "struct pathspec".
In some cases the zero-initialization here isn't strictly needed, but
as we're moving to a "goto cleanup" pattern let's make sure that it's
safe to call clear_pathspec(), we don't want the data to be
uninitialized.
E.g. for module_foreach() we can see from looking at
module_list_compute() that if it returns non-zero that the "pathspec"
will always have been initialized. But relying on that both assumes
knowledge about parse_pathspec(), and would set up a fragile pattern
going forward.

Fix a memory leak of the "clone_data_path" variable that we copy or
derive from the "struct module_clone_data" in clone_submodule(). This
code was refactored in preceding commits, but the leak has been with
us since f8eaa0ba98 (submodule--helper, module_clone: always operate
on absolute paths, 2016-03-31).
For the "else" case we don't need to xstrdup() the "clone_data->path",
and we don't need to free our own "clone_data_path". We can therefore
assign the "clone_data->path" to our own "clone_data_path" right away,
and only override it (and remember to free it!) if we need to
xstrfmt() a replacement.
In the case of the module_clone() caller it's from "argv", and doesn't
need to be free'd, and in the case of the add_submodule() caller we
get a pointer to "sm_path", which doesn't need to be directly free'd
either.
Fixing this leak makes several tests pass, so let's mark them as
passing with TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true.

of those cases.
Change the functions to return an int exit code (non-zero on failure),

This change addresses 1/2 of the "die" issue in these two lines in
update_submodule():

const char *branch = remote_submodule_branch(update_data->sm_path);
We can safely remove the "!default_remote" case from sync_submodule(),
because our get_default_remote_submodule() function now returns a
die_message() on failure, so we can have it and other callers check if
the exit code should be non-zero instead.

Continue the libification of codepaths that previously relied on
"must_die_on_failure". In these cases we've always been early aborting
by calling die(), but as we know that these codepaths will properly
handle return codes of 128 to mean an early abort let's have them use
die_message() instead.
This still isn't a complete migration away from die() for these
codepaths, in particular this code in update_submodule() will still call die() in some cases:
char *remote_name = get_default_remote_submodule(update_data->sm_path);
const char *branch = remote_submodule_branch(update_data->sm_path);

When "git submodule update" runs it might call "checkout", "merge",
"rebase", or a custom command. Ever since run_update_command() was
added in c51f8f94e5 (submodule--helper: run update procedures from C,
2021-08-24) we'd either exit immediately if the
"submodule.<name>.update" method failed, or in the case of "checkout"
continue trying to update other submodules.
This code used to use the magical "2" return code, but in
55b3f12cb5 (submodule update: use die_message(), 2022-03-15) it was
made to exit(128), which in preceding commits has been changed to
return that 128 code to the top-level.
Let's "libify" this code even more by not having it arbitrarily
override the return code. In practice this doesn't change anything as
the code "git checkout" would return on any normal failure is "1", but
we'll now in principle properly abort the operation if "git checkout"
were to exit with 128.
It would make sense to follow-up this change with a change to allow
the "submodule.<name>.update = !..." (SM_UPDATE_COMMAND) method the
same liberties as "checkout", and perhaps to do the same with a failed
"merge" or "rebase". But let's leave that for now.

In preceding commits the codepaths around update_submodules() were

"must_die_on_failure" in the cases where we'd exit(), and in most
cases where we'd die().
We needed to do this this to ensure that we'd early exit or otherwise
abort the update_submodules() processing before it was completed.
Now that those preceding changes have shown that we've converted those
paths, we can remove the remaining "ret == 128" special-cases, leaving
the only such special-case in update_submodules(). I.e. we now know
after having gone through the various codepaths that we were only
returning 128 if we meant to early abort.
In update_submodules() we'll for now set any non-zero non-128 exit
codes to "1", but will start ferrying up the exit code as-is in a

Change code downstream of module_update() to short-circuit and return
to the top-level on failure, rather than calling exit().
To do so we need to diligently check whether we "must_die_on_failure",
which is a pattern started in c51f8f94e5 (submodule--helper: run
update procedures from C, 2021-08-24), but which hadn't been completed
to the point where we could avoid calling exit() here.
This introduces no functional changes, but makes it easier to both
call these routines as a library in the future, and to eventually
avoid leaking memory.
This and similar control flow in submodule--helper.c could be made
simpler by properly "libifying" it, i.e. to have it consistently
return -1 on failures, and to early return on any non-success.
But let's leave that larger project for now, and (mostly) emulate what
were doing with the "exit(128)" before this change.

Apply some DRY principles in run_update_command() and don't have two
"switch" statements over "ud->update_strategy.type" determine the same
thing.
First we were setting "must_die_on_failure = 1" in all cases except
"SM_UPDATE_CHECKOUT" (and we'd BUG(...) out on the rest). This code
was added in c51f8f94e5 (submodule--helper: run update procedures

Then we'd duplicate same "switch" logic when we were using the
"must_die_on_failure" variable.
Let's instead have the "case" branches in that inner "switch"
determine whether or not the "update must continue" by picking an exit
code.
This also mostly avoids hardcoding the "128" exit code, instead we can
make use of the return value of the die_message() function, which
we've been calling here since 55b3f12cb5 (submodule update: use
die_message(), 2022-03-15). We're still hardcoding it to determine if
we "exit()", but subsequent commit(s) will address that.

Furthermore, this function would return NULL on SM_UPDATE_UNSPECIFIED,

As reported in [1] the "UNUSED(var)" macro introduced in
2174b8c75d (Merge branch 'jk/unused-annotation' into next,
2022-08-24) breaks coccinelle's parsing of our sources in files where
it occurs.
Let's instead partially go with the approach suggested in [2] of
making this not take an argument. As noted in [1] "coccinelle" will
ignore such tokens in argument lists that it doesn't know about, and
it's less of a surprise to syntax highlighters.
This undoes the "help us notice when a parameter marked as unused is
actually use" part of 9b24034754 (git-compat-util: add UNUSED macro,
2022-08-19), a subsequent commit will further tweak the macro to
implement a replacement for that functionality.

As the need to use the "--force-in-body-from" option primarily is
tied to which mailing list the mails go to (and get their From:
address mangled), it is likely that a user who needs to use this
option once to interact with their upstream project needs to use it
for all patches they send out.
Add a configuration variable, suitable for setting in the local
configuration file per repository, for this.

Users may be authoring and committing their commits under the same
e-mail address they use to send their patches from, in which case
they shouldn't need to use the in-body From: line in their outgoing
e-mails. At the receiving end, "git am" will use the address on the
"From:" header of the incoming e-mail and all should be well.
Some mailing lists, however, mangle the From: address from what the
original sender had; in such a situation, the user may want to add
the in-body "From:" header even for their own patches.
"git format-patch --[no-]force-in-body-from" was invented for such

While cron is specified by POSIX, there are a wide variety of
implementations in use. "git maintenance" assumes that the
"crontab" command can be fed from its standard input the new
contents and the syntax to do so is not to have any filename
argument, as POSIX describes. However, on FreeBSD, the cron
implementation requires a file name argument: if the user wants to
edit standard input, they must specify "-".
Unfortunately, POSIX systems do not have to interpret "-" on the
command line of crontab as a request to read from the standard
input. Blindly adding "-" on the command line would not work as a
general solution.
Since POSIX tells us that cron must accept a file name argument, let's
solve this problem by specifying a temporary file instead. This will
ensure that we work with the vast majority of implementations.
Note that because delete_tempfile closes the file for us, we should not
call fclose here on the handle, since doing so will introduce a double
free.

The `git range-diff` command can be quite expensive, which is not a
surprise given that the underlying algorithm to match up pairs of
commits between the provided two commit ranges has a cubic runtime.
Therefore it makes sense to restrict the commit ranges as much as
possible, to reduce the amount of input to that O(N^3) algorithm.
In chatty repositories with wide trees, this is not necessarily
possible merely by choosing commit ranges wisely.
Let's give users another option to restrict the commit ranges: by
providing a pathspec. That helps in repositories with wide trees because
it is likely that the user has a good idea which subset of the tree they
are actually interested in.
Example:
git range-diff upstream/main upstream/seen HEAD -- range-diff.c
This shows commits that are either in the local branch or in `seen`, but
not in `main`, skipping all commits that do not touch `range-diff.c`.
Note: Since we piggy-back the pathspecs onto the `other_arg` mechanism
that was introduced to be able to pass through the `--notes` option to
the revision machinery, we must now ensure that the `other_arg` array is
appended at the end (the revision range must come before the pathspecs,
if any).

In d9c66f0b5b (range-diff: first rudimentary implementation,
2018-08-13), we introduced the argument handling of the `range-diff`
command, special-casing three different stanzas based on the argument
count.
The somewhat unorthodox order (first handling the case of 2 arguments,
then 3, then 1) was chosen for clarity: the natural argument number is 2
because that is how many revision ranges are used internally. The code
to handle three arguments is relatively trivial, so it was added next.
And finally, the code to ungarble a single symmetric range into two
separate ones was added, because it was the most complicated (the most
inelegant part being about interpreting empty sides of the symmetric
range as `HEAD`).
In preparation for allowing pathspecs in `git range-diff` invocations,
where we no longer have the luxury of using the number of arguments to
disambiguate between these three different ways to specify the commit
ranges, we need to order these cases by argument count, in descending
order.
This patch is best viewed with `--color-moved`.

The "git remote rm" command's option parsing is fairly primitive: it
insists on a single argument, which it treats as the remote name, and
displays a usage message otherwise.
This is OK, and maybe even convenient, as you could run:
git remote rm --foo
to drop a remote named "--foo". But it's also weirdly unlike most of the
rest of Git, which would complain that there is no option "--foo". The
right way to spell it by our conventions is:
git remote rm -- --foo
but this doesn't currently work.
So let's bring the command in line with the rest of Git (including its
sibling subcommands!) by feeding argv to parse_options(). We already
have an empty options array for the usage helper.
Note that we have to adjust the argc index down by one, as
parse_options() eats the program name from the start of the array.

Several of the git-maintenance subcommands don't take any options, so
they don't bother looking at argv at all. This means they'll silently
accept garbage, like:
$ git maintenance register --foo
[no output]
$ git maintenance stop bar
[no output]
Let's give them the basic boilerplate to detect and handle these cases:
$ git maintenance register --foo
error: unknown option `foo'
usage: git maintenance register
$ git maintenance stop bar
usage: git maintenance stop
We could reduce the number of lines of code here a bit with a shared
helper function. But it's worth building out the boilerplate, as it may
serve as the base for adding options later.
Note one complication: maintenance_start() calls directly into
maintenance_register(), so it now needs to pass a plausible argv (we
don't care, but parse_options() is expecting there to at least be an
argv[0] program name). This is an extra line of code, but it eliminates
the need for an explanatory comment.

Recent commits such as bf0a6b65fc (builtin/multi-pack-index.c: let
parse-options parse subcommands, 2022-08-19) converted a few functions
to match our usual argc/argv/prefix conventions, but the prefix argument
remains unused.
However, there is a good use for it: they should pass it to their own
parse_options() functions, where it may be used to adjust the value of
any filename options. In all but one of these functions, there's no
behavior change, since they don't use OPT_FILENAME. But this is an
actual fix for one option, which you can see by modifying the test suite
like so:
diff --git a/t/t5326-multi-pack-bitmaps.sh b/t/t5326-multi-pack-bitmaps.sh

I'd emphasize that this wasn't broken by bf0a6b65fc; it has been broken
all along, because the sub-function never got to see the prefix. It is
that commit which is actually enabling us to fix it (and which also
brought attention to the problem because it triggers -Wunused-parameter!)
The other functions changed here don't use OPT_FILENAME at all. In their
cases this isn't fixing anything visible, but it's following the usual
pattern and future-proofing them against somebody adding new options and
being surprised.
I didn't include a test for the one visible case above. We don't
generally test routine parse-options behavior for individual options.
The challenge here was finding the problem, and now that this has been
done, it's not likely to regress. Likewise, we could apply the patch
above to cover it "for free" but it makes reading the rest of the test
unnecessarily complicated.

After our loop through the selected strategies, we compare best_strategy
to wt_strategy. This is fine, but the fact that the code setting
best_strategy sets it to use_strategies[i]->name requires a little bit
of extra checking to determine that at the time of setting, that's the
same as wt_strategy. Just setting best_strategy to wt_strategy makes it
a little easier to verify what the loop is doing, at least for this
reader.
Further, use_strategies[i]->name is used in a number of places, where we
could just use wt_strategy. The latter takes less time for this reader
to parse (one variable name instead of three), so just use wt_strategy
to make the code slightly faster for human readers to parse.

builtin/merge.c has a loop over the specified strategies, where if they
all fail with conflicts, it picks the one with the least number of
conflicts.
In the codepath that finds a successful merge, if an automatic commit
was wanted, the code breaks out of the above loop, which makes sense.
However, if the user requested there be no automatic commit, the loop
would continue. That seems weird; --no-commit should not affect the
choice of merge strategy, but the code as written makes one think it
does. However, since the loop itself embeds "!merge_was_ok" as a
condition on continuing to loop, it actually would also exit early if
--no-commit was specified, it just exited from a different location.
Restructure the code slightly to make it clear that the loop will
immediately exit whenever we find a merge strategy that is successful.

Several Git commands have subcommands to implement mutually exclusive
"operation modes", and they usually parse their subcommand argument
with a bunch of if-else if statements.
Teach parse-options to handle subcommands as well, which will result
in shorter and simpler code with consistent error handling and error
messages on unknown or missing subcommand, and it will also make
possible for our Bash completion script to handle subcommands
programmatically.
The approach is guided by the following observations:
- Most subcommands [1] are implemented in dedicated functions, and
most of those functions [2] either have a signature matching the
'int cmd_foo(int argc, const char **argc, const char *prefix)'
signature of builtin commands or can be trivially converted to
that signature, because they miss only that last prefix parameter
or have no parameters at all.
- Subcommand arguments only have long form, and they have no double
dash prefix, no negated form, and no description, and they don't
take any arguments, and can't be abbreviated.
- There must be exactly one subcommand among the arguments, or zero
if the command has a default operation mode.
- All arguments following the subcommand are considered to be
arguments of the subcommand, and, conversely, arguments meant for
the subcommand may not preceed the subcommand.
So in the end subcommand declaration and parsing would look something
like this:
parse_opt_subcommand_fn *fn = NULL;
struct option builtin_commit_graph_options[] = {
OPT_STRING(0, "object-dir", &opts.obj_dir, N_("dir"),
N_("the object directory to store the graph")),
OPT_SUBCOMMAND("verify", &fn, graph_verify),
OPT_SUBCOMMAND("write", &fn, graph_write),
OPT_END(),
};
argc = parse_options(argc, argv, prefix, options,
builtin_commit_graph_usage, 0);
return fn(argc, argv, prefix);
Here each OPT_SUBCOMMAND specifies the name of the subcommand and the
function implementing it, and the address of the same 'fn' subcommand
function pointer. parse_options() then processes the arguments until
it finds the first argument matching one of the subcommands, sets 'fn'
to the function associated with that subcommand, and returns, leaving
the rest of the arguments unprocessed. If none of the listed
subcommands is found among the arguments, parse_options() will show
usage and abort.
If a command has a default operation mode, 'fn' should be initialized
to the function implementing that mode, and parse_options() should be
invoked with the PARSE_OPT_SUBCOMMAND_OPTIONAL flag. In this case
parse_options() won't error out when not finding any subcommands, but
will return leaving 'fn' unchanged. Note that if that default
operation mode has any --options, then the PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT
flag is necessary as well (otherwise parse_options() would error out
upon seeing the unknown option meant to the default operation mode).
Some thoughts about the implementation:
- The same pointer to 'fn' must be specified as 'value' for each
OPT_SUBCOMMAND, because there can be only one set of mutually
exclusive subcommands; parse_options() will BUG() otherwise.
There are other ways to tell parse_options() where to put the
function associated with the subcommand given on the command line,
but I didn't like them:
- Change parse_options()'s signature by adding a pointer to
subcommand function to be set to the function associated with
the given subcommand, affecting all callsites, even those that
don't have subcommands.
- Introduce a specific parse_options_and_subcommand() variant
with that extra funcion parameter.
- I decided against automatically calling the subcommand function
from within parse_options(), because:
- There are commands that have to perform additional actions
after option parsing but before calling the function
implementing the specified subcommand.
- The return code of the subcommand is usually the return code
of the git command, but preserving the return code of the
automatically called subcommand function would have made the
API awkward.
- Also add a OPT_SUBCOMMAND_F() variant to allow specifying an
option flag: we have two subcommands that are purposefully
excluded from completion ('git remote rm' and 'git stash save'),
so they'll have to be specified with the PARSE_OPT_NOCOMPLETE
flag.
- Some of the 'parse_opt_flags' don't make sense with subcommands,
and using them is probably just an oversight or misunderstanding.
Therefore parse_options() will BUG() when invoked with any of the
following flags while the options array contains at least one
OPT_SUBCOMMAND:
- PARSE_OPT_KEEP_DASHDASH: parse_options() stops parsing
arguments when encountering a "--" argument, so it doesn't
make sense to expect and keep one before a subcommand, because
it would prevent the parsing of the subcommand.
However, this flag is allowed in combination with the
PARSE_OPT_SUBCOMMAND_OPTIONAL flag, because the double dash
might be meaningful for the command's default operation mode,
e.g. to disambiguate refs and pathspecs.
- PARSE_OPT_STOP_AT_NON_OPTION: As its name suggests, this flag
tells parse_options() to stop as soon as it encouners a
non-option argument, but subcommands are by definition not
options... so how could they be parsed, then?!
- PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN: This flag can be used to collect any
unknown --options and then pass them to a different command or
subsystem. Surely if a command has subcommands, then this
functionality should rather be delegated to one of those
subcommands, and not performed by the command itself.
However, this flag is allowed in combination with the
PARSE_OPT_SUBCOMMAND_OPTIONAL flag, making possible to pass
--options to the default operation mode.
- If the command with subcommands has a default operation mode, then
all arguments to the command must preceed the arguments of the
subcommand.
AFAICT we don't have any commands where this makes a difference,
because in those commands either only the command accepts any
arguments ('notes' and 'remote'), or only the default subcommand
('reflog' and 'stash'), but never both.
- The 'argv' array passed to subcommand functions currently starts
with the name of the subcommand. Keep this behavior. AFAICT no
subcommand functions depend on the actual content of 'argv[0]',
but the parse_options() call handling their options expects that
the options start at argv[1].
- To support handling subcommands programmatically in our Bash
completion script, 'git cmd --git-completion-helper' will now list
both subcommands and regular --options, if any. This means that
the completion script will have to separate subcommands (i.e.
words without a double dash prefix) from --options on its own, but
that's rather easy to do, and it's not much work either, because
the number of subcommands a command might have is rather low, and
those commands accept only a single --option or none at all. An
alternative would be to introduce a separate option that lists
only subcommands, but then the completion script would need not
one but two git invocations and command substitutions for commands
with subcommands.
Note that this change doesn't affect the behavior of our Bash
completion script, because when completing the --option of a
command with subcommands, e.g. for 'git notes --<TAB>', then all
subcommands will be filtered out anyway, as none of them will
match the word to be completed starting with that double dash
prefix.
[1] Except 'git rerere', because many of its subcommands are
implemented in the bodies of the if-else if statements parsing the
command's subcommand argument.
[2] Except 'credential', 'credential-store' and 'fsmonitor--daemon',
because some of the functions implementing their subcommands take
special parameters.

The description of 'PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN' starts with "Keep unknown
arguments instead of erroring out". This is a bit misleading, as this
flag only applies to unknown --options, while non-option arguments are
kept even without this flag.
Update the description to clarify this, and rename the flag to
PARSE_OPTIONS_KEEP_UNKNOWN_OPT to make this obvious just by looking at
the flag name.

Create a '--diagnose' option for 'git bugreport' to collect additional
information about the repository and write it to a zipped archive.
The '--diagnose' option behaves effectively as an alias for simultaneously
running 'git bugreport' and 'git diagnose'. In the documentation, users are
explicitly recommended to attach the diagnostics alongside a bug report to
provide additional context to readers, ideally reducing some back-and-forth
between reporters and those debugging the issue.
Note that '--diagnose' may take an optional string arg (either 'stats' or
'all'). If specified without the arg, the behavior corresponds to running
'git diagnose' without '--mode'. As with 'git diagnose', this default is
intended to help reduce unintentional leaking of sensitive information).
Users can also explicitly specify '--diagnose=(stats|all)' to generate the
respective archive created by 'git diagnose --mode=(stats|all)'.

A previous change added the '--bundle-uri' option, but did not check
if the --depth parameter was included. Since bundles are not compatible
with shallow clones, provide an error message to the user who is
attempting this combination.
I am leaving this as its own change, separate from the one that
implements '--bundle-uri', because this is more of an advisory for the
user. There is nothing wrong with bootstrapping with bundles and then
fetching a shallow clone. However, that is likely going to involve too
much work for the client _and_ the server. The client will download all
of this bundle information containing the full history of the
repository only to ignore most of it. The server will get a shallow
fetch request, but with a list of haves that might cause a more painful
computation of that shallow pack-file.

Cloning a remote repository is one of the most expensive operations in
Git. The server can spend a lot of CPU time generating a pack-file for
the client's request. The amount of data can clog the network for a long
time, and the Git protocol is not resumable. For users with poor network
connections or are located far away from the origin server, this can be
especially painful.
Add a new '--bundle-uri' option to 'git clone' to bootstrap a clone from
a bundle. If the user is aware of a bundle server, then they can tell
Git to bootstrap the new repository with these bundles before fetching
the remaining objects from the origin server.

Originally, moving an in-cone <source> to an out-of-cone <destination>
was not possible, mainly because such <destination> is a directory that
is not present in the working tree.
Change the behavior so that we can move an in-cone <source> to
out-of-cone <destination> when --sparse is supplied.
Notice that <destination> can also be an out-of-cone file path, rather
than a directory.
Such <source> can be either clean or dirty, and moving it results in
different behaviors:
A clean move should move <source> to <destination> in the index (do
*not* create <destination> in the worktree), then delete <source> from
the worktree.
A dirty move should move the <source> to the <destination>, both in the
working tree and the index, but should *not* remove the resulted path
from the working tree and should *not* turn on its CE_SKIP_WORKTREE bit.
Optional reading
================
We are strict about cone mode when <destination> is a file path.
The reason is that some of the previous tests that use no-cone mode in
t7002 are keep breaking, mainly because the `dst_mode = SPARSE;` line
added in this patch.
Most features developed in both "from-out-to-in" and "from-in-to-out"
only care about cone mode situation, as no-cone mode is becoming
irrelevant. And because assigning `SPARSE` to `dst_mode` when the
repo is in no-cone mode causes miscellaneous bugs, we should just leave
this new functionality to be exclusive cone mode and save some time.

Originally, <destination> is assumed to be in the working tree. If it is
not found as a directory, then it is determined to be either a regular file
path, or error out if used under the second form (move into a directory)
of 'git-mv'. Such behavior is not ideal, mainly because Git does not
look into the index for <destination>, which could potentially be a
SKIP_WORKTREE_DIR, which we need to determine for the later "moving from
in-cone to out-of-cone" patch.
Change the logic so that Git first check if <destination> is a directory
with all its contents sparsified (a SKIP_WORKTREE_DIR).
If <destination> is such a sparse directory, then we should modify the
index the same way as we would if this were a non-sparse directory. We
must be careful to ensure that the <destination> is marked with
SKIP_WORKTREE_DIR.
Also add a `dst_w_slash` to reuse the result from `add_slash()`, which
was everywhere and can be simplified.

Also, normalize a behavioral difference of `git-rm` under sparse-index.
See related discussion [1].
`git-rm` a sparse-directory entry within a sparse-index enabled repo
behaves differently from a sparse directory within a sparse-checkout
enabled repo.
For example, in a sparse-index repo, where 'folder1' is a
sparse-directory entry, `git rm -r --sparse folder1` provides this:
rm 'folder1/'
Whereas in a sparse-checkout repo *without* sparse-index, doing so
provides this:
rm 'folder1/0/0/0'
rm 'folder1/0/1'
rm 'folder1/a'
Because `git rm` a sparse-directory entry does not need to expand the
index, therefore we should accept the current behavior, which is faster
than "expand the sparse-directory entry to match the sparse-checkout
situation".
Modify a previous test so such difference is not considered as an error.

Remove the `ensure_full_index()` method so `git-rm` does not always
expand the index when the expansion is unnecessary, i.e. when
<pathspec> does not have any possibilities to match anything outside
of sparse-checkout definition.
Expand the index when the <pathspec> needs an expanded index, i.e. the
<pathspec> contains wildcard that may need a full-index or the
<pathspec> is simply outside of sparse-checkout definition.
Notice that the test 'rm pathspec expands index when necessary' in
t1092 *is* testing this code change behavior, though it will be marked
as 'test_expect_success' only in the next patch, where we officially
mark `command_requires_full_index = 0`, so the index does not expand
unless we tell it to do so.
Notice that because we also want `ensure_full_index` to record the
stdout and stderr from Git command, a corresponding modification
is also included in this patch. The reason we want the "sparse-index-out"
and "sparse-index-err", is that we need to make sure there is no error
from Git command itself, so we can rely on the `test_region` result
and determine if the index is expanded or not.

When a user runs 'git log', they expect a certain set of helpful
decorations. This includes:
* The HEAD ref
* Branches (refs/heads/)
* Stashes (refs/stash)
* Tags (refs/tags/)
* Remote branches (refs/remotes/)
* Replace refs (refs/replace/ or $GIT_REPLACE_REF_BASE)
Each of these namespaces was selected due to existing test cases that
verify these namespaces appear in the decorations. In particular,
stashes and replace refs can have custom colors from the
color.decorate.<slot> config option.
While one test checks for a decoration from notes, it only applies to
the tip of refs/notes/commit (or its configured ref name). Notes form
their own kind of decoration instead. Modify the expected output for the
tests in t4013 that expect this note decoration. There are several
tests throughout the codebase that verify that --decorate-refs,
--decorate-refs-exclude, and log.excludeDecoration work as designed and
the tests continue to pass without intervention.
However, there are other refs that are less helpful to show as
decoration:
* Prefetch refs (refs/prefetch/)
* Rebase refs (refs/rebase-merge/ and refs/rebase-apply/)
* Bundle refs (refs/bundle/) [!]
[!] The bundle refs are part of a parallel series that bootstraps a repo
from a bundle file, storing the bundle's refs into the repo's
refs/bundle/ namespace.
In the case of prefetch refs, 96eaffebbf (maintenance: set
log.excludeDecoration durin prefetch, 2021-01-19) added logic to add
refs/prefetch/ to the log.excludeDecoration config option. Additional
feedback pointed out that having such a side-effect can be confusing and
perhaps not helpful to users. Instead, we should hide these ref
namespaces that are being used by Git for internal reasons but are not
helpful for the users to see.
The way to provide a seamless user experience without setting the config
is to modify the default decoration filters to match our expectation of
what refs the user actually wants to see.
In builtin/log.c, after parsing the --decorate-refs and
--decorate-refs-exclude options from the command-line, call
set_default_decoration_filter(). This method populates the exclusions
from log.excludeDecoration, then checks if the list of pattern
modifications are empty. If none are specified, then the default set is
restricted to the set of inclusions mentioned earlier (HEAD, branches,
etc.). A previous change introduced the ref_namespaces array, which
includes all of these currently-used namespaces. The 'decoration' value
is non-zero when that namespace is associated with a special coloring
and fits into the list of "expected" decorations as described above,
which makes the implementation of this filter very simple.
Note that the logic in ref_filter_match() in log-tree.c follows this
matching pattern:
1. If there are exclusion patterns and the ref matches one, then ignore
the decoration.
2. If there are inclusion patterns and the ref matches one, then
definitely include the decoration.
3. If there are config-based exclusions from log.excludeDecoration and
the ref matches one, then ignore the decoration.
With this logic in mind, we need to ensure that we do not populate our
new defaults if any of these filters are manually set. Specifically, if
a user runs
git -c log.excludeDecoration=HEAD log
then we expect the HEAD decoration to not appear. If we left the default
inclusions in the set, then HEAD would match that inclusion before
reaching the config-based exclusions.
A potential alternative would be to check the list of default inclusions
at the end, after the config-based exclusions. This would still create a
behavior change for some uses of --decorate-refs-exclude=<X>, and could
be overwritten somewhat with --decorate-refs=refs/ and
--decorate-refs=HEAD. However, it no longer becomes possible to include
refs outside of the defaults while also excluding some using
log.excludeDecoration.
Another alternative would be to exclude the known namespaces that are
not intended to be shown. This would reduce the visible effect of the
change for expert users who use their own custom ref namespaces. The
implementation change would be very simple to swap due to our use of
ref_namespaces:
int i;
struct string_list *exclude = decoration_filter->exclude_ref_pattern;
/*
* No command-line or config options were given, so
* populate with sensible defaults.
*/
for (i = 0; i < NAMESPACE__COUNT; i++) {
if (ref_namespaces[i].decoration)
continue;
string_list_append(exclude, ref_namespaces[i].ref);
}
The main downside of this approach is that we expect to add new hidden
namespaces in the future, and that means that Git versions will be less
stable in how they behave as those namespaces are added.
It is critical that we provide ways for expert users to disable this
behavior change via command-line options and config keys. These changes
will be implemented in a future change.
Add a test that checks that the defaults are not added when
--decorate-refs is specified. We verify this by showing that HEAD is not
included as it normally would. Also add a test that shows that the
default filter avoids the unwanted decorations from refs/prefetch,
refs/rebase-merge,
and refs/bundle.

The git_replace_ref_base global is used to store the value of the
GIT_REPLACE_REF_BASE environment variable or the default of
"refs/replace/". This is initialized within setup_git_env().
The ref_namespaces array is a new centralized location for information
such as the ref namespace used for replace refs. Instead of having this
namespace stored in two places, use the ref_namespaces array instead.
For simplicity, create a local git_replace_ref_base variable wherever
the global was previously used.

Create a new "Repository, command and file interfaces" section in the

new criteria from the generic "Guides" section.
The "Guides" section was added in f442f28a81 (git.txt: add list of
guides, 2020-08-05). It makes sense to have e.g. "giteveryday(7)" and
"gitfaq(7)" listed under "Guides".
But placing e.g. "gitignore(5)" in it is stretching the meaning of
what a "guide" is, ideally that section should list things similar to
"giteveryday(7)" and "gitcore-tutorial(7)".
An alternate name that was considered for this new section was "User
formats", for consistency with the nomenclature used for man section 5
in general. My man(1) lists it as "File formats and conventions,
e.g. /etc/passwd".
So calling this "git help --formats" or "git help --user-formats"
would make sense for e.g. gitignore(5), but would be stretching it
somewhat for githooks(5), and would seem really suspect for the likes
of gitcli(7).

interface", which is really what this documentation discusses: General

Add a "free_removed_argv_elements" member to "struct

We have various memory leaks in APIs that take and munge "const
char **argv", e.g. parse_options(). Sometimes these APIs are given the
"argv" we get to the "main" function, in which case we don't leak
memory, but other times we're giving it the "v" member of a "struct
strvec" we created.
There's several potential ways to fix those sort of leaks, we could
add a "nodup" mode to "struct strvec", which would work for the cases
where we push constant strings to it. But that wouldn't work as soon
as we used strvec_pushf(), or otherwise needed to duplicate or create
a string for that "struct strvec".
Let's instead make it the responsibility of the revisions API. If it's
going to clobber elements of argv it can also free() them, which it
will now do if instructed to do so via "free_removed_argv_elements".

Refactor the juggling of "rev.pending" and our replacement for it
amended in the preceding commit so that:
* We use an "unsigned int" instead of an "int" for "i", this matches
the types of "struct rev_info" itself.
* We don't need the "count" and "objects" variables introduced in
5d7eeee2ac (git-show: grok blobs, trees and tags, too, 2006-12-14).
They were originally added since we'd clobber rev.pending in the

restoring it when we handle OBJ_COMMIT, so the main for-loop can
refer to "rev.pending" didrectly.
* We use the "memcpy a &blank" idiom introduced in

Fix a memory leak in code added in 5d7eeee2ac (git-show: grok blobs,
trees and tags, too, 2006-12-14). As we iterate over a "<revision>..."
command-line and encounter ad OBJ_COMMIT we want to use our "struct
rev_info", but with a "pending" array of one element: the one commit
we're showing in the loop.
To do this 5d7eeee2ac saved away a pointer to rev.pending.objects and
rev.pending.nr for its iteration. We'd then clobber those (and alloc)
when we needed to show an OBJ_COMMIT.
We'd therefore leak the "rev.pending" we started out with, and only
free the new "rev.pending" in the "OBJ_COMMIT" case arm as
prepare_revision_walk() would draw it down.
Let's fix this memory leak. Now when we encounter an OBJ_COMMIT we
save away the "rev.pending" before clearing it. We then add a single
commit to it, which our indirect invocation of prepare_revision_walk()
will remove. After that we restore the "rev.pending".
Our "rev.pending" will then get free'd by the release_revisions()
added in f6bfea0ad0 (revisions API users: use release_revisions() in

You can feed absolute garbage to symbolic-ref as a target like:
git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/foo..bar
While this doesn't technically break the repo entirely (our "is it a git
directory" detector looks only for "refs/" at the start), we would never
resolve such a ref, as the ".." is invalid within a refname.
Let's flag these as invalid at creation time to help the caller realize
that what they're asking for is bogus.
A few notes:
- We use REFNAME_ALLOW_ONELEVEL here, which lets:
git update-ref refs/heads/foo FETCH_HEAD
continue to work. It's unclear whether anybody wants to do something
so odd, but it does work now, so this is erring on the conservative
side. There's a test to make sure we didn't accidentally break this,
but don't take that test as an endorsement that it's a good idea, or
something we might not change in the future.
- The test in t4202-log.sh checks how we handle such an invalid ref on
the reading side, so it has to be updated to touch the HEAD file
directly.
- We need to keep our HEAD-specific check for "does it start with
refs/". The ALLOW_ONELEVEL flag means we won't be enforcing that for
other refs, but HEAD is special here because of the checks in
validate_headref().

Previously, if the user:
* Had no local changes before starting the merge
* A merge strategy makes changes to the working tree/index but returns
with exit status 2
Then we'd call restore_state() to clean up the changes and either let
the next merge strategy run (if there is one), or exit telling the user
that no merge strategy could handle the merge. Unfortunately,
restore_state() did not clean up the changes as expected; that function
was a no-op if the stash was a null, and the stash would be null if
there were no local changes before starting the merge. So, instead of
"Rewinding the tree to pristine..." as the code claimed, restore_state()
would leave garbage around in the index and working tree (possibly
including conflicts) for either the next merge strategy or for the user
after aborting the merge. And in the case of aborting the merge, the
user would be unable to run "git merge --abort" to get rid of the
unintended leftover conflicts, because the merge control files were not
written as it was presumed that we had restored to a clean state
already.
Fix the main problem by making sure that restore_state() only skips the
stash application if the stash is null rather than skipping the whole
function.
However, there is a secondary problem -- since merge.c forks
subprocesses to do the cleanup, the in-memory index is left out-of-sync.
While there was a refresh_cache(REFRESH_QUIET) call that attempted to
correct that, that function would not handle cases where the previous
merge strategy added conflicted entries. We need to drop the index and
re-read it to handle such cases.
(Alternatively, we could stop forking subprocesses and instead call some
appropriate function to do the work which would update the in-memory
index automatically. For now, just do the simple fix.)
Also, add a testcase checking this, one for which the octopus strategy
fails on the first commit it attempts to merge, and thus which it
cannot handle at all and must completely bail on (as per the "exit 2"
code path of commit 98efc8f3d8 ("octopus: allow manual resolve on the
last round.", 2006-01-13)).

Merge strategies can:
* succeed with a clean merge
* succeed with a conflicted merge
* fail to handle the given type of merge
If one is thinking in terms of automatic mergeability, they would use
the word "fail" instead of "succeed" for the second bullet, but I am
focusing here on ability of the merge strategy to handle the given
inputs, not on whether the given inputs are mergeable. The third
category is about the merge strategy failing to know how to handle the
given data; examples include:
* Passing more than 2 branches to 'recursive' or 'ort'
* Passing 2 or fewer branches to 'octopus'
* Trying to do more complicated merges with 'resolve' (I believe
directory/file conflicts will cause it to bail.)
* Octopus running into a merge conflict for any branch OTHER than
the final one (see the "exit 2" codepath of commit 98efc8f3d8
("octopus: allow manual resolve on the last round.", 2006-01-13))
That final one is particularly interesting, because it shows that the
merge strategy can muck with the index and working tree, and THEN bail
and say "sorry, this strategy cannot handle this type of merge; use
something else".
Further, we do not currently expect the individual strategies to clean
up after themselves, but instead expect builtin/merge.c to do so. For
it to be able to, it needs to save the state before trying the merge
strategy so it can have something to restore to. Therefore, remove the
shortcut bypassing the save_state() call.
There is another bug on the restore_state() side of things, so no
testcase will be added until the next commit when we have addressed that
issue as well.

There are multiple issues at play here:
1) If `git merge` is invoked with staged changes, it should abort
without doing any merging, and the user's working tree and index
should be the same as before merge was invoked.
2) Merge strategies are responsible for enforcing the index == HEAD
requirement. (See 9822175d2b ("Ensure index matches head before
invoking merge machinery, round N", 2019-08-17) for some history
around this.)
3) Merge strategies can bail saying they are not an appropriate
handler for the merge in question (possibly allowing other
strategies to be used instead).
4) Merge strategies can make changes to the index and working tree,
and have no expectation to clean up after themselves, *even* if
they bail out and say they are not an appropriate handler for
the merge in question. (The `octopus` merge strategy does this,
for example.)
5) Because of (3) and (4), builtin/merge.c stashes state before
trying merge strategies and restores it afterward.
Unfortunately, if users had staged changes before calling `git merge`,
builtin/merge.c could do the following:
* stash the changes, in order to clean up after the strategies
* try all the merge strategies in turn, each of which report they
cannot function due to the index not matching HEAD
* restore the changes via "git stash apply"
But that last step would have the net effect of unstaging the user's
changes. Fix this by adding the "--index" option to "git stash apply".
While at it, also squelch the stash apply output; we already report
"Rewinding the tree to pristine..." and don't need a detailed `git
status` report afterwards. Also while at it, switch to using strvec
so folks don't have to count the arguments to ensure we avoided an
off-by-one error, and so it's easier to add additional arguments to
the command.

builtin/merge is setup to allow multiple strategies to be specified,
and it will find the "best" result and use it. This is defeated if
some of the merge strategies abort early when they cannot handle the
merge. Fix the logic that calls recursive and ort to not do such an
early abort, but instead return "2" or "unhandled" so that the next
strategy can try to handle the merge.
Coming up with a testcase for this is somewhat difficult, since
recursive and ort both handle nearly any two-headed merge (there is
a separate code path that checks for non-two-headed merges and
already returns "2" for them). So use a somewhat synthetic testcase
of having the index not match HEAD before the merge starts, since all
merge strategies will abort for that.

As noted in the last commit and the links therein (especially commit
9822175d2b ("Ensure index matches head before invoking merge machinery,
round N", 2019-08-17), we have had a very long history of problems with
failing to enforce the requirement that index matches HEAD when starting
a merge.
The "trivial merge" logic in builtin/merge.c is yet another such case
we previously missed. Add a check for it to ensure it aborts if the
index does not match HEAD, and add a testcase where this fix is needed.
Note that the fix here would also incidentally be an alternative fix
for the testcase added in the last patch, but the fix in the last patch
is still needed when multiple merge strategies are in use, so tweak the
testcase from the previous commit so that it continues to exercise the
codepath added in the last commit.

When callers are using `cat-file` via one of the stdin-driven `--batch`
modes, all input is newline-delimited. This presents a problem when
callers wish to ask about, e.g. tree-entries that have a newline
character present in their filename.
To support this niche scenario, introduce a new `-z` mode to the
`--batch`, `--batch-check`, and `--batch-command` suite of options that
instructs `cat-file` to treat its input as NUL-delimited, allowing the
individual commands themselves to have newlines present.
The refactoring here is slightly unfortunate, since we turn loops like:
while (strbuf_getline(&buf, stdin) != EOF)
into:
while (1) {
int ret;
if (opt->nul_terminated)
ret = strbuf_getline_nul(&input, stdin);
else
ret = strbuf_getline(&input, stdin);
if (ret == EOF)
break;
}
It's tempting to think that we could use `strbuf_getwholeline()` and
specify either `\n` or `\0` as the terminating character. But for input
on platforms that include a CR character preceeding the LF, this
wouldn't quite be the same, since `strbuf_getline(...)` will trim any
trailing CR, while `strbuf_getwholeline(&buf, stdin, '\n')` will not.
In the future, we could clean this up further by introducing a variant
of `strbuf_getwholeline()` that addresses the aforementioned gap, but
that approach felt too heavy-handed for this pair of uses.
Some tests are added in t1006 to ensure that `cat-file` produces the
same output in `--batch`, `--batch-check`, and `--batch-command` modes
with and without the new `-z` option.

When working on a large feature, it can be helpful to break that feature
into multiple smaller parts that become reviewed in sequence. During
development or during review, a change to one part of the feature could
affect multiple of these parts. An interactive rebase can help adjust
the multi-part "story" of the branch.
However, if there are branches tracking the different parts of the
feature, then rebasing the entire list of commits can create commits not
reachable from those "sub branches". It can take a manual step to update
those branches.
Add a new --update-refs option to 'git rebase -i' that adds 'update-ref
<ref>' steps to the todo file whenever a commit that is being rebased is
decorated with that <ref>. At the very end, the rebase process updates
all of the listed refs to the values stored during the rebase operation.
Be sure to iterate after any squashing or fixups are placed. Update the
branch only after those squashes and fixups are complete. This allows a
--fixup commit at the tip of the feature to apply correctly to the sub
branch, even if it is fixing up the most-recent commit in that part.
This change update the documentation and builtin to accept the
--update-refs option as well as updating the todo file with the
'update-ref' commands. Tests are added to ensure that these todo
commands are added in the correct locations.
This change does _not_ include the actual behavior of tracking the
updated refs and writing the new ref values at the end of the rebase
process. That is deferred to a later change.

that are then displayed to users. This content which has author,
committer or tagger information, could benefit from passing through the
mailmap mechanism before being sent or displayed.
This patch adds --[no-]use-mailmap command line option to the git
cat-file command. It also adds --[no-]mailmap option as an alias to
--[no-]use-mailmap.
This patch also introduces new test cases to test the mailmap mechanism in
git cat-file command.
