99094a7ad4 t: fix trivial &&-chain breakage
These are tests which are missing a link in their &&-chain,
but during a setup phase. We may fail to notice failure in
commands that build the test environment, but these are
typically not expected to fail at all (but it's still good
to double-check that our test environment is what we
expect).

8196e72895 git-submodule.sh: fix '/././' path normalization
When we add a new submodule the path of the submodule is being
normalized. We fail to normalize multiple adjacent '/./', though.
Thus 'path/to/././submodule' will become 'path/to/./submodule' where
it should be 'path/to/submodule' instead.

f7e8714101 t: prefer "git config --file" to GIT_CONFIG
Doing:

  GIT_CONFIG=foo git config ...

is equivalent to:

  git config --file=foo ...

The latter is easier to read and slightly less error-prone,
because of issues with one-shot variables and shell
functions (e.g., you cannot use the former with
test_must_fail).

Note that we explicitly leave one case in t1300 which checks
the same operation on both GIT_CONFIG and "git config
--file". They are equivalent in the code these days, but
this will make sure it remains so.

2c63d6eb46 reset: handle submodule with trailing slash
When using tab-completion, a directory path will often end with a
trailing slash which currently confuses "git reset" when dealing with
submodules.  Now that we have parse_pathspec we can easily handle this
by simply adding the PATHSPEC_STRIP_SUBMODULE_SLASH_CHEAP flag.

To do this, we need to move the read_cache() call before the
parse_pathspec() call.  All of the existing paths through cmd_reset()
that do not die early already call read_cache() at some point, so there
is no performance impact to doing this in the common case.

4b05440283 avoid segfault on submodule.*.path set to an empty "true"
Git fails due to a segmentation fault if a submodule path is empty.
Here is an example .gitmodules that will cause a segmentation fault:

    [submodule "foo-module"]
      path
      url = http://host/repo.git
    $ git status
    Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This is because the parsing of "submodule.*.path" is not prepared to
see a value-less "true" and assumes that the value is always
non-NULL (parsing of "ignore" has the same problem).

Fix it by checking the NULL-ness of value and complain with
config_error_nonbool().

95c16418f0 rm: delete .gitmodules entry of submodules removed from the work tree
Currently using "git rm" on a submodule removes the submodule's work tree
from that of the superproject and the gitlink from the index. But the
submodule's section in .gitmodules is left untouched, which is a leftover
of the now removed submodule and might irritate users (as opposed to the
setting in .git/config, this must stay as a reminder that the user showed
interest in this submodule so it will be repopulated later when an older
commit is checked out).

Let "git rm" help the user by not only removing the submodule from the
work tree but by also removing the "submodule.<submodule name>" section
from the .gitmodules file and stage both. This doesn't happen when the
"--cached" option is used, as it would modify the work tree. This also
silently does nothing when no .gitmodules file is found and only issues a
warning when it doesn't have a section for this submodule. This is because
the user might just use plain gitlinks without the .gitmodules file or has
already removed the section by hand before issuing the "git rm" command
(in which case the warning reminds him that rm would have done that for
him). Only when .gitmodules is found and contains merge conflicts the rm
command will fail and tell the user to resolve the conflict before trying
again.

Also extend the man page to inform the user about this new feature. While
at it promote the submodule sub-section to a chapter as it made not much
sense under "REMOVING FILES THAT HAVE DISAPPEARED FROM THE FILESYSTEM".

In t7610 three uses of "git rm submod" had to be replaced with "git rm
--cached submod" because that test expects .gitmodules and the work tree
to stay untouched. Also in t7400 the tests for the remaining settings in
the .gitmodules file had to be changed to assert that these settings are
missing.

Many "git submodule" operations do not work on a submodule at a path whose

This is because "git ls-files" is used to find which paths are bound to
submodules to the current working tree, and the output is C-quoted by default
for non ASCII pathnames.

C-quote ourselves.

7b294bf494 submodule deinit: clarify work tree removal message
The output of "git submodule deinit sub" of a populated submodule prints

  rm 'sub'

as the first line unless used with the -f option.

The "rm 'sub'" line is exactly the same output the user gets when using
"git rm sub" (because that command is used with the --dry-run option under
the hood to determine if the submodule is clean), which can easily lead to
the false impression that the submodule would be permanently removed. Also
users might be confused that the "rm 'submodule'" line won't show up when
the -f option is used, as the test is skipped in this case.

Silence the "rm 'submodule'" output by using the --quiet option for "git
rm" and always print

  Cleared directory 'submodule'

instead as the first output line. This line is printed as long as the
directory exists, no matter if empty or not.

Also extend the tests in t7400 to make sure the "Cleared directory" line
is printed correctly.

cf41982806 submodule: add 'deinit' command
With "git submodule init" the user is able to tell git he cares about one
or more submodules and wants to have it populated on the next call to "git
submodule update". But currently there is no easy way he could tell git he
does not care about a submodule anymore and wants to get rid of his local
work tree (except he knows a lot about submodule internals and removes the
"submodule.$name.url" setting from .git/config together with the work tree
himself).

Help those users by providing a 'deinit' command. This removes the
whole submodule.<name> section from .git/config (either for the given
submodule(s) or for all those which have been initialized if '.' is used)
together with their work tree. Fail if the current work tree contains
modifications (unless forced), but don't complain when either the work
tree is already removed or no settings are found in .git/config.

Add tests and link the man pages of "git submodule deinit" and "git rm"
to assist the user in deciding whether removing or unregistering the
submodule is the right thing to do for him. Also add the deinit subcommand
to the completion list.

fdb4d27158 Merge branch 'jl/submodule-add-by-name'
If you remove a submodule, in order to keep the repository so that
"git checkout" to an older commit in the superproject history can
resurrect the submodule, the real repository will stay in $GIT_DIR
of the superproject.  A later "git submodule add $path" to add a
different submodule at the same path will fail.  Diagnose this case
a bit better, and if the user really wants to add an unrelated
submodule at the same path, give the "--name" option to give it a
place in $GIT_DIR of the superproject that does not conflict with
the original submodule.

4b7c286ec7 submodule add: Fail when .git/modules/<name> already exists unless forced
When adding a new submodule it can happen that .git/modules/<name> already
contains a submodule repo, e.g. when a submodule is removed from the work
tree and another submodule is added at the same path. But then the work
tree of the submodule will be populated using the existing repository and
not the one the user provided, which results in an incorrect work tree. On
the other hand the user might reactivate a submodule removed earlier, then
reusing that .git directory is the Right Thing to do.

As git can't decide what is the case, error out and tell the user she
should use either use a different name for the submodule with the "--name"
option or can reuse the .git directory for the newly added submodule by
providing the --force option (which only makes sense when the upstream
matches, so the error message lists all remotes of .git/modules/<name>).

In one test in t7406 the --force option had to be added to "git submodule
add", as that test re-adds a formerly removed submodule.

73b0898d0d Teach "git submodule add" the --name option
"git submodule add" initializes the name of a submodule to its path. This
was ok as long as the .git directory lived inside the submodule's work
tree, but since 1.7.8 it is stored in the .git/modules/<name> directory of
the superproject, making the submodule name survive the removal of the
submodule's work tree. This leads to problems when the user tries to add a
different submodule at the same path - and thus the same name - later, as
that will happily try to restore the submodule from the old repository
instead of the one the user specified and will lead to a checkout of the
wrong repository.

Add the new "--name" option to let the user provide a name for the
submodule. This enables the user to solve this conflict without having to
remove .git/modules/<name> by hand (which is no viable solution as it
makes it impossible to checkout a commit that records the old submodule
and populate it, as that will still check out the new submodule for the
same reason).

To achieve that the submodule's name is added to the parameter list of
the module_clone() helper function. This makes it possible to remove the
call of module_name() there because both callers of module_clone() already
know the name and can provide it as argument number two.

af9c9f9713 submodule: if $command was not matched, don't parse other args
"git submodule" command DWIMs the command line and assumes a
unspecified action word for 'status' action.  This is a UI mistake
that leads to a confusing behaviour.  A mistyped command name is
instead treated as a request for 'status' of the submodule with that
name, e.g.

    $ git submodule show
    error: pathspec 'show' did not match any file(s) known to git.
    Did you forget to 'git add'?

Stop DWIMming an unknown or mistyped subcommand name as pathspec
given to unspelled "status" subcommand.  "git submodule" without any
argument is still interpreted as "git submodule status", but its
value is questionable.

Adjust t7400 to match, and stop advertising the default subcommand
being 'status' which does not help much in practice, other than
promoting laziness and confusion.

be9d0a3a4c Let submodule command exit with error status if path does not exist
Various subcommands of the "git submodule" command exited with 0
status even though the path given by the user did not exist.

The reason behind that was that they all pipe the output of
module_list into the while loop which then does the action on the
paths specified by the commandline. Since the exit code of the
command on the upstream side of the pipe is ignored by the shell,
the status code of "ls-files --error-unmatch" nor "module_list" was
not propagated.

In case ls-files returns with an error code, we write a special
string that is not possible in non error situations, and no other
output, so that the downstream can detect the error and die with an
error code.

The error message that there is an unmatched pathspec comes through
stderr directly from ls-files. So the user still gets a hint whats going
on.

c517e73d0f t7400: avoid path mangling issues
A recently introduced test uses an absolute path. But when run on Windows
using the MSYS bash, such a path is mangled into a Windows style path when
it is passed to 'git config'. The subsequent 'test' then compares the
mangled path to the unmangled version and reports a failure.

A path beginning with two slashes denotes a network directory
(//server/share path) and is not mangled. Use that trick to side-step the
issue. Just in case that 'git submodule init' regresses in such a way that
it accesses the URL, use a path name that is unlikely to exist on POSIX
systems, and that cannot be a server name on Windows.

d75219b4a8 submodules: always use a relative path from gitdir to work tree
Since recently a submodule with name <name> has its git directory in the
.git/modules/<name> directory of the superproject while the work tree
contains a gitfile pointing there. To make that work the git directory has
the core.worktree configuration set in its config file to point back to
the work tree.

That core.worktree is an absolute path set by the initial clone of the
submodule. A relative path is preferable here because it allows the
superproject to be moved around without invalidating that setting, so
compute and set that relative path after cloning or reactivating the
submodule.

This also fixes a bug when moving a submodule around inside the
superproject, as the current code forgot to update the setting to the new
submodule work tree location.

Enhance t7400 to ensure that future versions won't re-add absolute paths
by accident and that moving a superproject won't break submodules.

ea115a0d43 submodules: always use a relative path to gitdir
Since recently a submodule with name <name> has its git directory in the
.git/modules/<name> directory of the superproject while the work tree
contains a gitfile pointing there. When the submodule git directory needs
to be cloned because it is not found in .git/modules/<name> the clone
command will write an absolute path into the gitfile. When no clone is
necessary the git directory will be reactivated by the git-submodule.sh
script by writing a relative path into the gitfile.

This is inconsistent, as the behavior depends on the submodule having been
cloned before into the .git/modules of the superproject. A relative path
is preferable here because it allows the superproject to be moved around
without invalidating the gitfile. We do that by always writing the
relative path into the gitfile, which overwrites the absolute path the
clone command may have written there.

This is only the first step to make superprojects movable again like they
were before the separate-git-dir approach was introduced. The second step
is to use a relative path in core.worktree too.

Enhance t7400 to ensure that future versions won't re-add absolute paths
by accident.

While at it also replace an if/else construct evaluating the presence
of the 'reference' option with a single line of bash code.

abc06822af rev-parse: add option --resolve-git-dir <path>
Check if <path> is a valid git-dir or a valid git-file that points
to a valid git-dir.

We want tests to be independent from the fact that a git-dir may
be a git-file. Thus we changed tests to use this feature.

dd008b3b11 t7400: fix bogus test failure with symlinked trash
One of the tests in t7400 fails if the trash directory has a
symlink anywhere in its path. E.g.:

  $ mkdir /tmp/git-test
  $ mkdir /tmp/git-test/real
  $ ln -s real /tmp/git-test/link

  $ ./t7400-submodule-basic --root=/tmp/git-test/real
  ...
  # passed all 44 test(s)

  $ ./t7400-submodule-basic --root=/tmp/git-test/link
  ...
  not ok - 41 use superproject as upstream when path is relative and no url is set there

The failing test does:

  git submodule add ../repo relative &&
  ...
  git submodule sync relative &&
  test "$(git config submodule.relative.url)" = "$submodurl/repo"

where $submodurl comes from the $TRASH_DIRECTORY the user
gave us. However, git will resolve symlinks when converting
the relative path into an absolute one, leading them to be
textually different (even though they point to the same
directory).

Fix this by asking pwd to canonicalize the name of the trash
directory for us.

7e60407f7a submodule: update and add must honor --quiet flag
When using the --quiet flag "git submodule update" and "git submodule add"
didn't behave as the documentation stated. They printed progress output
from the clone, even though they should only print error messages.

Fix that by passing the -q flag to git clone in module_clone() when the
GIT_QUIET variable is set. Two tests in t7400 have been modified to test
that behavior.

4d68932004 submodule add: allow relative repository path even when no url is set
Adding a submodule with a relative repository path did only succeed when
the superproject's default remote was set. But when that is unset, the
superproject is its own authoritative upstream, so lets use its working
directory as upstream instead.

This allows users to set up a new superpoject where the submodules urls
are configured relative to the superproject's upstream while its default
remote can be configured later.
