0f2dc722dd refs: convert resolve_refdup and refs_resolve_refdup to struct object_id
All of the callers already pass the hash member of struct object_id, so
update them to pass a pointer to the struct directly,

This transformation was done with an update to declaration and
definition and the following semantic patch:

89f3bbdd3b refs: update ref transactions to use struct object_id
Update the ref transaction code to use struct object_id.  Remove one
NULL pointer check which was previously inserted around a dereference;
since we now pass a pointer to struct object_id directly through, the
code we're calling handles this for us.

837e34eba4 treewide: prefer lockfiles on the stack
There is no longer any need to allocate and leak a `struct lock_file`.
The previous patch addressed an instance where we needed a minor tweak
alongside the trivial changes.

Deal with the remaining instances where we allocate and leak a struct
within a single function. Change them to have the `struct lock_file` on
the stack instead.

These instances were identified by running `git grep "^\s*struct
lock_file\s*\*"`.

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.

db4eca1fea clone: handle empty config values in -c
"git clone --config" uses the following incantation to add an item to
a config file, instead of replacing an existing value:

	git_config_set_multivar_gently(key, value, "^$", 0)

As long as no existing value matches the regex ^$, that works as
intended and adds to the config.  When a value is empty, though, it
replaces the existing value.

Noticed while trying to set credential.helper during a clone to use a
specific helper without inheriting from ~/.gitconfig and
/etc/gitconfig.  That is, I ran

	git clone -c credential.helper= \
		-c credential.helper=myhelper \
		https://example.com/repo

intending to produce the configuration

	[credential]
		helper =
		helper = myhelper

Without this patch, the 'helper =' line is not included and the
credential helper from /etc/gitconfig gets used.

0dab2468ee clone: add a --no-tags option to clone without tags
Add a --no-tags option to clone without fetching any tags.

Without this change there's no easy way to clone a repository without
also fetching its tags.

When supplying --single-branch the primary remote branch will be
cloned, but in addition tags will be followed & retrieved. Now
--no-tags can be added --single-branch to clone a repository without
tags, and which only tracks a single upstream branch.

This option works without --single-branch as well, and will do a
normal clone but not fetch any tags.

Many git commands pay some fixed overhead as a function of the number
of references. E.g. creating ~40k tags in linux.git will cause a
command like `git log -1 >/dev/null` to run in over a second instead
of in a matter of milliseconds, in addition numerous other things will
slow down, e.g. "git log <TAB>" with the bash completion will slowly
show ~40k references instead of 1.

The user might want to avoid all of that overhead to simply use a
repository like that to browse the "master" branch, or something like
a CI tool might want to keep that one branch up-to-date without caring
about any other references.

Without this change the only way of accomplishing this was either by
manually tweaking the config in a fresh repository:

    git init git &&
    cat >git/.git/config <<EOF &&
    [remote "origin"]
        url = git@github.com:git/git.git
        tagOpt = --no-tags
        fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
    [branch "master"]
        remote = origin
        merge = refs/heads/master
    EOF
    cd git &&
    git pull

Which requires hardcoding the "master" name, which may not be the main
--single-branch would have retrieved, or alternatively by setting
tagOpt=--no-tags right after cloning & deleting any existing tags:

    git clone --single-branch git@github.com:git/git.git &&
    cd git &&
    git config remote.origin.tagOpt --no-tags &&
    git tag -l | xargs git tag -d

Which of course was also subtly buggy if --branch was pointed at a
tag, leaving the user in a detached head:

    git clone --single-branch --branch v2.12.0 git@github.com:git/git.git &&
    cd git &&
    git config remote.origin.tagOpt --no-tags &&
    git tag -l | xargs git tag -d

Now all this complexity becomes the much simpler:

    git clone --single-branch --no-tags git@github.com:git/git.git

Or in the case of cloning a single tag "branch":

    git clone --single-branch --branch v2.12.0 --no-tags git@github.com:git/git.git

bb62e0a99f clone: teach --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspec
Teach clone --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspec argument
which describes which submodules should be recursively initialized and
cloned.  If no pathspec is provided, --recurse-submodules will
recursively initialize and clone all submodules by using a default
pathspec of ".".  In order to construct more complex pathspecs,
--recurse-submodules can be given multiple times.

This also configures the 'submodule.active' configuration option to be
the given pathspec, such that any future invocation of `git submodule
update` will keep up with the pathspec.

Additionally the switch '--recurse' is removed from the Documentation as
well as marked hidden in the options array, to streamline the options
for submodules.  A simple '--recurse' doesn't convey what is being
recursed, e.g. it could mean directories or trees (c.f. ls-tree) In a
lot of other commands we already have '--recurse-submodules' to mean
recursing into submodules, so advertise this spelling here as the
genuine option.

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.

22d3b8de1b clone: detect errors in normalize_path_copy
When we are copying the alternates from the source
repository, if we find a relative path that is too deep for
the source (e.g., "../../../objects" from "/repo.git/objects"),
then normalize_path_copy will report an error and leave
trash in the buffer, which we will add to our new alternates
file. Instead, let's detect the error, print a warning, and
skip copying that alternate.

There's no need to die. The relative path is probably just
broken cruft in the source repo. If it turns out to have
been important for accessing some objects, we rely on other
parts of the clone to detect that, just as they would with a
missing object in the source repo itself (though note that
clones with "-s" are inherently local, which may do fewer
object-quality checks in the first place).

72c5f88311 clone: pass --progress decision to recursive submodules
When cloning with "--recursive", we'd generally expect
submodules to show progress reports if the main clone did,
too.

In older versions of git, this mostly worked out of the
box. Since we show progress by default when stderr is a tty,
and since the child clones inherit the parent stderr, then
both processes would come to the same decision by default.
If the parent clone was asked for "--quiet", we passed down
"--quiet" to the child. However, if stderr was not a tty and
the user specified "--progress", we did not propagate this
to the child.

That's a minor bug, but things got much worse when we
switched recently to submodule--helper's update_clone
command. With that change, the stderr of the child clones
are always connected to a pipe, and we never output
progress at all.

This patch teaches git-submodule and git-submodule--helper
how to pass down an explicit "--progress" flag when cloning.
The clone command then decides to propagate that flag based
on the cloning decision made earlier (which takes into
account isatty(2) of the parent process, existing --progress
or --quiet flags, etc). Since the child processes always run
without a tty on stderr, we don't have to worry about
passing an explicit "--no-progress"; it's the default for
them.

This fixes the recent loss of progress during recursive
clones. And as a bonus, it makes:

  git clone --recursive --progress ... 2>&1 | cat

work by triggering progress explicitly in the children.

31224cbdc7 clone: recursive and reference option triggers submodule alternates
When `--recursive` and `--reference` is given, it is reasonable to
expect that the submodules are created with references to the submodules
of the given alternate for the superproject.

  An initial attempt to do this was presented to the mailing list, which
  used flags that are passed around ("--super-reference") that instructed
  the submodule clone to look for a reference in the submodules of the
  referenced superproject. This is not well thought out, as any further
  `submodule update` should also respect the initial setup.

  When a new  submodule is added to the superproject and the alternate
  of the superproject does not know about that submodule yet, we rather
  error out informing the user instead of being unclear if we did or did
  not use a submodules alternate.

To solve this problem introduce new options that store the configuration
for what the user wanted originally.

7043c7071c check_everything_connected: use a struct with named options
The number of variants of check_everything_connected has
grown over the years, so that the "real" function takes
several possibly-zero, possibly-NULL arguments. We hid the
complexity behind some wrapper functions, but this doesn't
scale well when we want to add new options.

If we add more wrapper variants to handle the new options,
then we can get a combinatorial explosion when those options
might be used together (right now nobody wants to use both
"shallow" and "transport" together, so we get by with just a
few wrappers).

If instead we add new parameters to each function, each of
which can have a default value, then callers who want the
defaults end up with confusing invocations like:

  check_everything_connected(fn, 0, data, -1, 0, NULL);

where it is unclear which parameter is which (and every
caller needs updated when we add new options).

Instead, let's add a struct to hold all of the optional
parameters. This is a little more verbose for the callers
(who have to declare the struct and fill it in), but it
makes their code much easier to follow, because every option
is named as it is set (and unused options do not have to be
mentioned at all).

Note that we could also stick the iteration function and its
callback data into the option struct, too. But since those
are required for each call, by avoiding doing so, we can let
very simple callers just pass "NULL" for the options and not
worry about the struct at all.

While we're touching each site, let's also rename the
function to check_connected(). The existing name was quite
long, and not all of the wrappers even used the full name.

In v2.9.0, we prematurely flipped the default to force cloning

shallowly.  This is likely to fail when the upstream repositories
submodules are cloned from a repository that is not prepared to
serve histories that ends at a commit that is not at the tip of a

Use a safer default to clone the submodules fully, unless the user
tells us that she knows that the upstream repository of the
submodules are willing to cooperate with "--shallow-submodules"
option.

2721ce21e4 use string_list initializer consistently
There are two types of string_lists: those that own the
string memory, and those that don't. You can tell the
difference by the strdup_strings flag, and one should use
either STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, or STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP as an
initializer.

Historically, the normal all-zeros initialization has
corresponded to the NODUP case. Many sites use no
initializer at all, and that works as a shorthand for that
case. But for a reader of the code, it can be hard to
remember which is which. Let's be more explicit and actually
have each site declare which type it means to use.

This is a fairly mechanical conversion; I assumed each site
was correct as-is, and just switched them all to NODUP.

d22eb04475 clone: add --shallow-submodules flag
When creating a shallow clone of a repository with submodules, the depth
argument does not influence the submodules, i.e. the submodules are done
as non-shallow clones. It is unclear what the best default is for the
depth of submodules of a shallow clone, so we need to have the possibility
to do all kinds of combinations:

* shallow super project with shallow submodules
  e.g. build bots starting always from scratch. They want to transmit
  the least amount of network data as well as using the least amount
  of space on their hard drive.
* shallow super project with unshallow submodules
  e.g. The superproject is just there to track a collection of repositories
  and it is not important to have the relationship between the repositories
  intact. However the history of the individual submodules matter.
* unshallow super project with shallow submodules
  e.g. The superproject is the actual project and the submodule is a
  library which is rarely touched.

The new switch to select submodules to be shallow or unshallow supports
all of these three cases.

It is easy to transition from the first to the second case by just
unshallowing the submodules (`git submodule foreach git fetch
--unshallow`), but it is not possible to transition from the second to the
first case (as we would have already transmitted the non shallow over
the network). That is why we want to make the first case the default in
case of a shallow super project. This leads to the inconvenience in the
second case with the shallow super project and unshallow submodules,
as you need to pass `--no-shallow-submodules`.

8f309aeb82 strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()
The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as
the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these
codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL
and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long
time ago.  No useful caller that uses other value has emerged.

By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a
good reason.  Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read
either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and
then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter.

This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(),
namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and
mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of
them.  The changes contained in this patch are:

 * introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch]

 * mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with
   either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the
   respective thin wrapper.

After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would
become a lot smaller.  An interim goal of this series is to make
this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take
over the shorter name strbuf_getline().

786b150c8d clone --dissociate: avoid locking pack files
When `git clone` is asked to dissociate the repository from the
reference repository whose objects were used, it is quite possible that
the pack files need to be repacked. In that case, the pack files need to
be deleted that were originally hard-links to the reference repository's
pack files.

On platforms where a file cannot be deleted if another process still
holds a handle on it, we therefore need to take pains to release all
pack files and indexes before dissociating.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/446

be run on Linux or MacOSX. It won't hurt, either, though.

0ea68e4296 get_repo_path: refactor path-allocation
The get_repo_path function calls mkpath() and then does some
non-trivial operations on it, like calling
is_git_directory() and read_gitfile(). These are actually
OK (they do not use more pathname static buffers
themselves), but it takes a fair bit of work to verify.

Let's use our own strbuf to store the path, and we can
simply reuse it for each iteration of the loop (we can even
avoid rewriting the beginning part, since we are trying a
series of suffixes).

To make the strbuf cleanup easier, we split out a thin
wrapper. As a bonus, this wrapper can factor out the
canonicalization that happens in all of the early-return
code paths.

Due to various components of the URI being stripped off it may
happen that we fail to guess a directory name. We currently error
out with a message that it is impossible to create the working

error message hinting that a directory name should be specified
manually on the command line.

92722efec0 clone: do not use port number as dir name
If the URI contains a port number and the URI's path component is
empty we fail to guess a sensible directory name. E.g. cloning a
repository 'ssh://example.com:2222/' we guess a directory name
'2222' where we would want the hostname only, e.g. 'example.com'.

We need to take care to not drop trailing port-like numbers in
certain cases. E.g. when cloning a repository 'foo/bar:2222.git'
we want to guess the directory name '2222' instead of 'bar'.
Thus, we have to first check the stripped URI for path separators
and only strip port numbers if there are path separators present.
This heuristic breaks when cloning a repository 'bar:2222.git',
though.

The naive way of just adding '@' as a path separator would break
cloning repositories like 'foo/bar@baz.git' (which would
currently become 'bar@baz' but would then become 'baz' only).
Instead fix this by first dropping the scheme and then greedily
scanning for an '@' sign until we find the first path separator.

db2e220447 clone: use computed length in guess_dir_name
Commit 7e837c6 (clone: simplify string handling in
guess_dir_name(), 2015-07-09) changed clone to use
strip_suffix instead of hand-rolled pointer manipulation.
However, strip_suffix will strip from the end of a
NUL-terminated string, and we may have already stripped some
characters (like directory separators, or "/.git"). This
leads to commands like:

  git clone host:foo.git/

failing to strip the ".git".

We must instead convert our pointer arithmetic into a
computed length and feed that to strip_suffix_mem, which will
then reduce the length further for us.

It would be nicer if we could drop the pointer manipulation
entirely, and just continually strip using strip_suffix. But
that doesn't quite work for two reasons:

  1. The early suffixes we're stripping are not constant; we
     need to look for is_dir_sep, which could be one of
     several characters.

  2. Mid-way through the stripping we compute the pointer
     "start", which shows us the beginning of the pathname.
     Which really give us two lengths to work with: the
     offset from the start of the string, and from the start
     of the path. By using pointers for the early part, we
     can just compute the length from "start" when we need
     it.

58f233ce1e initial_ref_transaction_commit(): function for initial ref creation
"git clone" uses shortcuts when creating the initial set of
references:

* It writes them directly to packed-refs.

* It doesn't lock the individual references (though it does lock the
  packed-refs file).

* It doesn't check for refname conflicts between two new references or
  between one new reference and any hypothetical old ones.

* It doesn't create reflog entries for the reference creations.

This functionality was implemented in builtin/clone.c. But really that
file shouldn't have such intimate knowledge of how references are
stored. So provide a new function in the refs API,
initial_ref_transaction_commit(), which can be used for initial
reference creation. The new function is based on the ref_transaction
interface.

This means that we can make some other functions private to the refs
module. That will be done in a followup commit.

It would seem to make sense to add a test here that there are no
existing references, because that is how the function *should* be
used. But in fact, the "testgit" remote helper appears to call it
*after* having set up refs/remotes/<name>/HEAD and
refs/remotes/<name>/master, so we can't be so strict. For now, the
function trusts its caller to only call it when it makes sense. Future
commits will add some more limited sanity checks.

Commit 2879bc3 made the progress and verbosity options sent to remote helper
earlier than they previously were. But nothing else after that would send
updates if the value is changed later on with transport_set_verbosity.

While for fetch and push, transport_set_verbosity is the first thing that
is done after creating the transport, it was not the case for clone. So
commit 2879bc3 broke changing progress and verbosity for clone, for urls
requiring a remote helper only (so, not git:// urls, for instance).

Moving transport_set_verbosity to just after the transport is created
works around the issue.

ee0e38727f clone: initialize atexit cleanup handler earlier
If clone fails, we generally try to clean up any directories
we've created. We do this by installing an atexit handler,
so that we don't have to manually trigger cleanup. However,
since we install this after touching the filesystem, any
errors between our initial mkdir() and our atexit() call
will result in us leaving a crufty directory around.

We can fix this by moving our atexit() call earlier. It's OK
to do it before the junk_work_tree variable is set, because
remove_junk makes sure the variable is initialized. This
means we "activate" the handler by assigning to the
junk_work_tree variable, which we now bump down to just
after we call mkdir(). We probably do not want to do it
before, because a plausible reason for mkdir() to fail is
EEXIST (i.e., we are racing with another "git init"), and we
would not want to remove their work.

OTOH, this is probably not that big a deal; we will allow
cloning into an empty directory (and skip the mkdir), which
is already racy (i.e., one clone may see the other's empty
dir and start writing into it). Still, it does not hurt to
err on the side of caution here.

Note that writing into junk_work_tree and junk_git_dir after
installing the handler is also technically racy, as we call
our handler on an async signal.  Depending on the platform,
we could see a sheared write to the variables. Traditionally
we have not worried about this, and indeed we already do
this later in the function. If we want to address that, it
can come as a separate topic.

Before the previous commit, get_pathname returns an array of PATH_MAX
length. Even if git_path() and similar functions does not use the
whole array, git_path() caller can, in theory.

After the commit, get_pathname() may return a buffer that has just
enough room for the returned string and git_path() caller should never
write beyond that.

Make git_path(), mkpath() and git_path_submodule() return a const
buffer to make sure callers do not write in it at all.

This could have been part of the previous commit, but the "const"

Wrap atexit()s calls on unthreaded builds to handle callback list

This is needed because on unthreaded builds, asyncs inherits parent's
atexit() list, that gets run as soon as the async exit()s (and again at
the end of async's parent process). That led to remove temporary files
too early.

Also remove a by-atexit-callback guard against this kind of issue in
clone.c, as this patch makes it redundant.

Fixes test 5537 (temporary shallow file vanished before unpack-objects
could open it)

BTW remove an unused variable in shallow.c.

fb1d6dabce clone: --dissociate option to mark that reference is only temporary
While use of the --reference option to borrow objects from an
existing local repository of the same project is an effective way to
reduce traffic when cloning a project over the network, it makes the
resulting "borrowing" repository dependent on the "borrowed"
repository.  After running

	git clone --reference=P $URL Q

the resulting repository Q will be broken if the borrowed repository
P disappears.

The way to allow the borrowed repository to be removed is to repack
the borrowing repository (i.e. run "git repack -a -d" in Q); while
power users may know it very well, it is not easily discoverable.

Teach a new "--dissociate" option to "git clone" to run this
repacking for the user.

cf4fff579e refactor skip_prefix to return a boolean
The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content
past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While
this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use
for two reasons:

  1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string
     as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable.
     For example:

       tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo");
       if (tmp)
	       buf = tmp;

  2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as
     you need extra parentheses to silence compiler
     warnings. For example:

       if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"))
	       /* do something with cp */

Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and
we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line
of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past
the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra
strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but
means we are repeating ourselves).

This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean,
and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the
prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This
lets you write:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg))
	  do_foo(arg);
  else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg))
	  do_bar(arg);

clone_local() does not handle $SRC/shallow. It could be made so, but
it's simpler to use fetch-pack/upload-pack instead.

This used to be caught by the check in upload-pack, which is triggered
by transport_get_remote_refs(), even in local clone case. The check is
now gone and check_everything_connected() should catch the result
incomplete repo. But check_everything_connected() will soon be skipped
in local clone case, opening a door to corrupt repo. This patch should

beea4152d9 clone: support remote shallow repository
Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new
.git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all
refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom.

Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more
importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's
probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others
are dropped.

One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A
shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's
attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not
reachable by any refs).

If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send
more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we
incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will
not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not
desired.

Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for
security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a
tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster
everyday.

A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8
steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the
shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

643f918d13 clone: always set transport options
A clone will always create a transport struct, whether we
are cloning locally or using an actual protocol. In the
local case, we only use the transport to get the list of
refs, and then transfer the objects out-of-band.

However, there are many options that we do not bother
setting up in the local case. For the most part, these are
noops, because they only affect the object-fetching stage
(e.g., the --depth option).  However, some options do have a
visible impact. For example, giving the path to upload-pack
via "-u" does not currently work for a local clone, even
though we need upload-pack to get the ref list.

We can just drop the conditional entirely and set these
options for both local and non-local clones. Rather than
keep track of which options impact the object versus the ref
fetching stage, we can simply let the noops be noops (and
the cost of setting the options in the first place is not
high).

The one exception is that we also check that the transport
provides both a "get_refs_list" and a "fetch" method. We
will now be checking the former for both cases (which is
good, since a transport that cannot fetch refs would not
work for a local clone), and we tweak the conditional to
check for a "fetch" only when we are non-local.

2856cbf0ae clone: treat "checking connectivity" like other progress
When stderr does not point to a tty, we typically suppress
"we are now in this phase" progress reporting (e.g., we ask
the server not to send us "counting objects" and the like).

The new "checking connectivity" message is in the same vein,
and should be suppressed. Since clone relies on the
transport code to make the decision, we can simply sneak a
peek at the "progress" field of the transport struct. That
properly takes into account both the verbosity and progress
options we were given, as well as the result of isatty().

Note that we do not set up that progress flag for a local
clone, as we do not fetch using the transport at all. That's
acceptable here, though, because we also do not perform a
connectivity check in that case.

68b939b2f0 clone: send diagnostic messages to stderr
Putting messages like "Cloning into.." and "done" on stdout
is un-Unix and uselessly clutters the stdout channel. Send
them to stderr.

We have to tweak two tests to accommodate this:

  1. t5601 checks for doubled output due to forking, and
     doesn't actually care where the output goes; adjust it
     to check stderr.

  2. t5702 is trying to test whether progress output was
     sent to stderr, but naively does so by checking
     whether stderr produced any output. Instead, have it
     look for "%", a token found in progress output but not
     elsewhere (and which lets us avoid hard-coding the
     progress text in the test).

This should not regress any scripts that try to parse the
current output, as the output is already internationalized
and therefore unstable.

4741edd549 Remove deprecated OPTION_BOOLEAN for parsing arguments
As of b04ba2bb4 OPTION_BOOLEAN was deprecated.
This commit removes all occurrences of OPTION_BOOLEAN.
In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either
OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which
occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter.
So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option
in parse-options.h to make life easy.

The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref.
The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT
was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern,
so we could think of introducing OPT_NONEG_BOOL.

125a05fd0b clone: drop connectivity check for local clones
Commit 0433ad1 (clone: run check_everything_connected,
2013-03-25) added the same connectivity check to clone that
we use for fetching. The intent was to provide enough safety
checks that "git clone git://..." could be counted on to
detect bit errors and other repo corruption, and not
silently propagate them to the clone.

For local clones, this turns out to be a bad idea, for two
reasons:

  1. Local clones use hard linking (or even shared object
     stores), and so complete far more quickly. The time
     spent on the connectivity check is therefore
     proportionally much more painful.

  2. Local clones do not actually meet our safety guarantee
     anyway. The connectivity check makes sure we have all
     of the objects we claim to, but it does not check for
     bit errors. We will notice bit errors in commits and
     trees, but we do not load blob objects at all. Whereas
     over the pack transport, we actually recompute the sha1
     of each object in the incoming packfile; bit errors
     change the sha1 of the object, which is then caught by
     the connectivity check.

This patch drops the connectivity check in the local case.
Note that we have to revert the changes from 0433ad1 to
t5710, as we no longer notice the corruption during clone.

We could go a step further and provide a "verify even local
clones" option, but it is probably not worthwhile. You can
already spell that as "cd foo.git && git fsck && git clone ."
or as "git clone --no-local foo.git".

c6807a40dc clone: open a shortcut for connectivity check
In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list
--objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive
on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in
this special case.

In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the
following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the
new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...":

 - all refs point to an object in the pack
 - there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack
 - no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack

The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as
a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition
for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects
large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in
check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack.

"index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack
+ rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the
conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list
..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for
the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the
other side is either buggy or malicious.

sys     0m35.812s      0m37.630s

This shortcut is not applied to shallow clones, partly because shallow
clones should have no more objects than a usual fetch and the cost of
rev-list is acceptable, partly to avoid dealing with corner cases when
grafting is involved.

This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either
because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that
code path.

32d462cea8 pack-refs: merge code from pack-refs.{c,h} into refs.{c,h}
pack-refs.c doesn't contain much code, and the code it does contain is
closely related to reference handling.  Moreover, there is some
duplication between pack_refs() and repack_without_ref().  Therefore,
merge pack-refs.c into refs.c and pack-refs.h into refs.h.

The code duplication will be addressed in future commits.

0658569eb0 clone: Fix error message for reference repository
Do not report that an argument to clone's --reference option is not a
local directory.  Nothing checks for the existence or type of the path
as supplied by the user; checks are only done for particular contents of
the supposed directory, so we have no way to know the status of the
supplied path.  Telling the user that a directory doesn't exist when
that isn't actually known may lead him or her on the wrong path to
finding the problem.

Instead just state that the entered path is not a local repository which
is really all that is known about it.  It could be more helpful to state
the actual paths which were checked, but I believe that giving a good
description of that would be too verbose for a simple error message and
would be too dependent on implementation details.

d3b34622f6 clone: leave repo in place after checkout errors
If we manage to clone a remote repository but run into an
error in the checkout, it is probably sane to leave the repo
directory in place. That lets the user examine the situation
without spending time to re-clone from the remote (which may
be a lengthy process).

Rather than try to convert each die() from the checkout code
path into an error(), we simply set a flag that tells the
"remove_junk" atexit function to print a helpful message and
leave the repo in place.

Note that the test added in this patch actually passes
without the code change. The reason is that the cleanup code
is buggy; we chdir into the working tree for the checkout,
but still may use relative paths to remove the directories
(which means if you cloned into "foo", we would accidentally
remove "foo" from the working tree!).  There's no point in
fixing it now, since this patch means we will never try to
remove anything after the chdir, anyway.

0433ad128c clone: run check_everything_connected
When we fetch from a remote, we do a revision walk to make
sure that what we received is connected to our existing
history. We do not do the same check for clone, which should
be able to check that we received an intact history graph.

The upside of this patch is that it will make clone more
resilient against propagating repository corruption. The
downside is that we will now traverse "rev-list --objects
--all" down to the roots, which may take some time (it is
especially noticeable for a "--local --bare" clone).

Note that we need to adjust t5710, which tries to make such
a bogus clone. Rather than checking after the fact that our
clone is bogus, we can simplify it to just make sure "git
clone" reports failure.

0aac7bb287 clone: die on errors from unpack_trees
When clone is populating the working tree, it ignores the
return status from unpack_trees; this means we may report a
successful clone, even when the checkout fails.

When checkout fails, we may want to leave the $GIT_DIR in
place, as it might be possible to recover the data through
further use of "git checkout" (e.g., if the checkout failed
due to a transient error, disk full, etc). However, we
already die on a number of other checkout-related errors, so
this patch follows that pattern.

In addition to marking a now-passing test, we need to adjust
t5710, which blindly assumed it could make bogus clones of
very deep alternates hierarchies. By using "--bare", we can
avoid it actually touching any objects.

the git directory somewhere outside the worktree, for example when
cloning a repository for use as a submodule.

It was not intended for use when creating a bare repository. In that
case there is no worktree and it is more natural to directly clone the
repository and create a .git file as separate steps:

        git clone --bare /path/to/repo.git bar.git
        printf 'gitdir: bar.git\n' >foo.git

9be1980bb9 clone: support atomic operation with --separate-git-dir
Since b57fb80a7d (init, clone: support --separate-git-dir for .git file)
git clone supports the --separate-git-dir option to create the git dir
outside the work tree. But when that option is used, the git dir won't be
deleted in case the clone fails like it would be without this option. This
makes clone lose its atomicity as in case of a failure a partly set up git
dir is left behind. A real world example where this leads to problems is
when "git submodule update" fails to clone a submodule and later calls to
"git submodule update" stumble over the partially set up git dir and try
to revive the submodule from there, which then fails with a not very user
friendly error message.

Fix that by updating the junk_git_dir variable (used to remember if and
what git dir should be removed in case of failure) to the new value given
with the --seperate-git-dir option. Also add a test for this to t5600 (and
while at it fix the former last test to not cd into a directory to test
for its existence but use "test -d" instead).

Update the fetch refspec to cover only the singly cloned ref instead
to correct this.

That means:
If "--single" is used without "--branch" or "--mirror", the
fetch refspec covers the branch on which remote's HEAD points to.
If "--single" is used with "--branch", it'll cover only the branch
specified in the "--branch" option.
If "--single" is combined with "--mirror", then it'll cover all
refs of the cloned repository.
If "--single" is used with "--branch" that specifies a tag, then
it'll cover only the ref for this tag.

The original version of the git-clone just used mkdir(1) to create
the working directories.  The version rewritten in C creates all
directories inside the working tree by using the mode argument of
0777 when calling mkdir(2) to let the umask take effect.

But the top-level directory of the working tree is created by
passing the mode argument of 0755 to mkdir(2), which results in an
overly tight restriction if the user wants to make directories group
writable with a looser umask like 002.

b3256eb8b3 standardize and improve lookup rules for external local repos
When you specify a local repository on the command line of
clone, ls-remote, upload-pack, receive-pack, or upload-archive,
or in a request to git-daemon, we perform a little bit of
lookup magic, doing things like looking in working trees for
.git directories and appending ".git" for bare repos.

For clone, this magic happens in get_repo_path. For
everything else, it happens in enter_repo. In both cases,
there are some ambiguous or confusing cases that aren't
handled well, and there is one case that is not handled the
same by both methods.

This patch tries to provide (and test!) standard, sensible
lookup rules for both code paths. The intended changes are:

  1. When looking up "foo", we have always preferred
     a working tree "foo" (containing "foo/.git" over the
     bare "foo.git". But we did not prefer a bare "foo" over
     "foo.git". With this patch, we do so.

  2. We would select directories that existed but didn't
     actually look like git repositories. With this patch,
     we make sure a selected directory looks like a git
     repo. Not only is this more sensible in general, but it
     will help anybody who is negatively affected by change
     (1) negatively (e.g., if they had "foo.git" next to its
     separate work tree "foo", and expect to keep finding
     "foo.git" when they reference "foo").

  3. The enter_repo code path would, given "foo", look for
     "foo.git/.git" (i.e., do the ".git" append magic even
     for a repo with working tree). The clone code path did
     not; with this patch, they now behave the same.

In the unlikely case of a working tree overlaying a bare
repo (i.e., a ".git" directory _inside_ a bare repo), we
continue to treat it as a working tree (prefering the
"inner" .git over the bare repo). This is mainly because the
combination seems nonsensical, and I'd rather stick with
existing behavior on the off chance that somebody is relying
on it.

9049816140 clone: fix up delay cloning conditions
6f48d39 (clone: delay cloning until after remote HEAD checking -
2012-01-16) allows us to perform some checks on remote refs before the
actual cloning happens. But not all transport types support
this. Remote helper with "import" capability will not return complete
ref information until fetch is performed and therefore the clone cannot
be delayed.

foreign_vcs field in struct remote was used to detect this kind of transport
and save the result. This is a mistake because foreign_vcs is designed
to override url-based transport detection. As a result, if the same
"struct transport *" object is used on many different urls and one of
them attached remote transport, the following urls will be mistakenly
attached to the same transport. This fault is worked around by dad0b3d
(push: do not let configured foreign-vcs permanently clobbered -
2012-01-23)

To fix this, detect incomplete refs from transport_get_remote_refs()
by SHA-1. Incomplete ones must have null SHA-1 (*). Then revert
changes related to foreign_cvs field in 6f48d39 and dad0b3d.

A good thing from this change is that cloning smart http transport can
also be delayed. Earlier it falls into the same category "remote
transport, no delay".

(*) Theoretically if one of the remote refs happens to have null SHA-1,
it will trigger false alarm and the clone will not be delayed. But
that chance may be too small for us to pay attention to.

write_remote_refs() creates new packed refs from references obtained
from the remote repository, which is "out of thin air" as far as the
local repository is concerned.  Previously it did this by creating
"extra" refs, then calling pack_refs() to bake them into the
packed-refs file.  Instead, create packed refs (in the packed
reference cache) directly, then call pack_refs().

Aside from being more logical, this is another step towards removing

5a7d5b683f clone: allow --branch to take a tag
Because a tag ref cannot be put to HEAD, HEAD will become detached.
This is consistent with "git checkout <tag>".

This is mostly useful in shallow clone, where it allows you to clone a
tag in addtion to branches.

It's possible that users make a typo in the branch name. Stop and let
users recheck. Falling back to remote's HEAD is not documented any
way.

Except when using remote helper, the pack has not been transferred at
this stage yet so we don't waste much bandwidth.

6f48d39fa4 clone: delay cloning until after remote HEAD checking
This gives us an opportunity to abort the command during remote HEAD
check without wasting much bandwidth.

Cloning with remote-helper remains before the check because the remote
helper updates mapped_refs, which is necessary for remote ref checks.
foreign_vcs field is used to indicate the transport is handled by
remote helper.

e6baf4a1ae clone: clone from a repository with relative alternates
Cloning from a local repository blindly copies or hardlinks all the files
under objects/ hierarchy. This results in two issues:

 - If the repository cloned has an "objects/info/alternates" file, and the
   command line of clone specifies --reference, the ones specified on the
   command line get overwritten by the copy from the original repository.

 - An entry in a "objects/info/alternates" file can specify the object
   stores it borrows objects from as a path relative to the "objects/"
   directory. When cloning a repository with such an alternates file, if
   the new repository is not sitting next to the original repository, such
   relative paths needs to be adjusted so that they can be used in the new
   repository.

This updates add_to_alternates_file() to take the path to the alternate
object store, including the "/objects" part at the end (earlier, it was
taking the path to $GIT_DIR and was adding "/objects" itself), as it is
technically possible to specify in objects/info/alternates file the path
of a directory whose name does not end with "/objects".

Also add a test to expose a long-standing bug that is triggered when

are lost, and only alternates copied from the source repository remain.
The bug will be fixed in the next patch.

84054f79de clone: accept config options on the command line
Clone does all of init, "remote add", fetch, and checkout
without giving the user a chance to intervene and set any
configuration. This patch allows you to set config options
in the newly created repository after the clone, but before
we do any other operations.

In many cases, this is a minor convenience over something
like:

  git clone git://...
  git config core.whatever true

But in some cases, it can bring extra efficiency by changing
how the fetch or checkout work. For example, setting
line-ending config before the checkout avoids having to
re-checkout all of the contents with the correct line
endings.

It also provides a mechanism for passing information to remote
helpers during a clone; the helpers may read the git config
to influence how they operate.

c1921c184c clone: always fetch remote HEAD
In most cases, fetching the remote HEAD explicitly is
unnecessary. It's just a symref pointing to a branch which
we are already fetching, so we will already ask for its sha1.

However, if the remote has a detached HEAD, things are less
certain. We do not ask for HEAD's sha1, but we do try to
write it into a local detached HEAD. In most cases this is
fine, as the remote HEAD is pointing to some part of the
history graph that we will fetch via the refs.

But if the remote HEAD points to an "orphan" commit (one
which was is not an ancestor of any refs), then we will not
have the object, and update_ref will complain when we try to
write the detached HEAD, aborting the whole clone.

This patch makes clone always explicitly ask the remote for
the sha1 of its HEAD commit. In the non-detached case, this
is a no-op, as we were going to ask for that sha1 anyway. In
the regular detached case, this will add an extra "want" to
the protocol negotiation, but will not change the history
that gets sent. And in the detached orphan case, we will
fetch the orphaned history so that we can write it into our
local detached HEAD.

bbc30f9963 add packet tracing debug code
This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given
program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or
other protocol issues.

To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest
level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the
packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK",
which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing
(since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to
read, at least not in the trace format).

We show both written and read packets. In the local case,
this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the
sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where
the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full
conversation.

Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>,
where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.

Since 86ac751 (Allow cloning an empty repository,

  git clone does-not-exist

has created does-not-exist as an empty repository. This was
an unintentional side effect of 86ac751. Even weirder,
doing:

  git clone does-not-exist new-dir

_does_ fail, making this "feature" (if you want to consider
it such) broken. Let's detect this situation and explicitly
die. It's almost certainly not what the user intended.

This patch also adds two tests. One for the missing path
case, and one to confirm that a similar case, cloning a
non-repository directory, fails.

report to say "Cloning into mine" instead, as that matches what the
end-user asked for closer.

Make the message for "git clone --bare $URL mine" to say "Cloning
into bare repository mine" do make the distinction between this case and
the above stand out a bit more prominently.

28ba96ab27 clone: quell the progress report from init and report on clone
Currently, a local git clone reports only initializing an empty
git dir, which is potentially confusing.

Instead, report that cloning is in progress and when it is done
(unless -q) is given, and suppress the init report.

df61c88979 clone: also configure url for bare clones
Without this the 'origin' remote would not be configured, so when
calling remote_get with 'origin' as argument we would get an
unconfigured remote.

766ac6a6ba clone: pass the remote name to remote_get
Currently when using a remote helper to clone a repository, the
remote helper will be passed the url of the target repository as
first argument (which represents the name of the remote). This name
is extracted from transport->remote->name, which is set by
builtin/clone.c when it calls remote_get with argv[0] as argument.

Fix this by passing the name remote will be set up as instead.

However, setup_reference calls remote_get before the remote is
added to the config file. This will result in an improperly
configured remote (in memory) if later on remote_get is called
with an argument that is not equal to the initial remote_get call
in setup_reference. Fix this by delaying the remote_get call until
after the remote has been added to the config file.

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.
