1a0c8dfd89 strbuf: give strbuf_getline() to the "most text friendly" variant
Now there is no direct caller to strbuf_getline(), we can demote it
to file-scope static that is private to strbuf.c and rename it to
strbuf_getdelim().  Rename strbuf_getline_crlf(), which is designed
to be the most "text friendly" variant, and allow it to take over
this simplest name, strbuf_getline(), so we can add more uses of it
without having to type _crlf over and over again in the coming
steps.

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().

c8aa9fdf5d strbuf: make strbuf_getline_crlf() global
Often we read "text" files that are supplied by the end user
(e.g. commit log message that was edited with $GIT_EDITOR upon 'git
commit -e'), and in some environments lines in a text file are
terminated with CRLF.  Existing strbuf_getline() knows to read a
single line and then strip the terminating byte from the result, but
it is handy to have a version that is more tailored for a "text"
input that takes both '\n' and '\r\n' as line terminator (aka
<newline> in POSIX lingo) and returns the body of the line after
stripping <newline>.

Recently reimplemented "git am" uses such a function implemented
privately; move it to strbuf.[ch] and make it available for others.

Note that we do not blindly replace calls to strbuf_getline() that
uses LF as the line terminator with calls to strbuf_getline_crlf()
and this is very much deliberate.  Some callers may want to treat an
incoming line that ends with CR (and terminated with LF) to have a
payload that includes the final CR, and such a blind replacement
will result in misconversion when done without code audit.

b4e04fb66e strbuf: add strbuf_read_once to read without blocking
The new call will read from a file descriptor into a strbuf once. The
underlying call xread is just run once. xread only reattempts
reading in case of EINTR, which makes it suitable to use for a

63af4a8446 strbuf: make stripspace() part of strbuf
This function is also used in other builtins than stripspace, so it
makes sense to have it in a more generic place.  Since it operates
on an strbuf and the function is declared in strbuf.h, move it to
strbuf.c and add the corresponding prefix to its name, just like
other API functions in the strbuf_* family.

Also switch all current users of stripspace() to the new function
name and keep a temporary wrapper inline function for any topic
branches still using stripspace().

af49c6d091 add reentrant variants of sha1_to_hex and find_unique_abbrev
The sha1_to_hex and find_unique_abbrev functions always
write into reusable static buffers. There are a few problems
with this:

  - future calls overwrite our result. This is especially
    annoying with find_unique_abbrev, which does not have a
    ring of buffers, so you cannot even printf() a result
    that has two abbreviated sha1s.

  - if you want to put the result into another buffer, we
    often strcpy, which looks suspicious when auditing for
    overflows.

This patch introduces sha1_to_hex_r and find_unique_abbrev_r,
which write into a user-provided buffer. Of course this is
just punting on the overflow-auditing, as the buffer
obviously needs to be GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ + 1 bytes. But it is
much easier to audit, since that is a well-known size.

We retain the non-reentrant forms, which just become thin
wrappers around the reentrant ones. This patch also adds a
strbuf variant of find_unique_abbrev, which will be handy in
later patches.

fec501dae8 strbuf_addch: avoid calling strbuf_grow
We mark strbuf_addch as inline, because we expect it may be
called from a tight loop. However, the first thing it does
is call the non-inline strbuf_grow(), which can handle
arbitrary-sized growth. Since we know that we only need a
single character, we can use the inline strbuf_avail() to
quickly check whether we need to grow at all.

Our check is redundant when we do call strbuf_grow(), but
that's OK. The common case is that we avoid calling it at
all, and we have made that case faster.

On a silly pathological case:

  perl -le '
    print "[core]";
    print "key$_ = value$_" for (1..1000000)
  ' >input
  git config -f input core.key1

this dropped the time to run git-config from:

  real    0m0.159s
  user    0m0.152s
  sys     0m0.004s

to:

  real    0m0.140s
  user    0m0.136s
  sys     0m0.004s

for a savings of 12%.

f20e56e202 strbuf.h: drop boilerplate descriptions of strbuf_split_*
The description of strbuf_split_buf says most of what
needs to be said for all of the split variants that take
strings, raw memory, etc. We have a boilerplate comment
above each that points to the first. This boilerplate
ends up making it harder to read, because it spaces out the
functions, which could otherwise be read as a group.

Let's drop the boilerplate completely, and mention the
variants in the top comment. This is perhaps slightly worse
for a hypothetical system which pulls the documentation for
each function out of the comment immediately preceding it.
But such a system does not yet exist, and anyway, the end
result of extracting the boilerplate comments would not lead
to a very easy-to-read result.  We would do better in the
long run to teach the extraction system about groups of
related functions.

14e2177a40 strbuf.h: reorganize api function grouping headers
The original API doc had something like:

    Functions
    ---------

    * Life cycle

      ... some life-cycle functions ...

    * Related to the contents of the buffer

      ... functions related to contents ....

    etc

This grouping can be hard to read in the comment sources,
given the "*" in the comment lines, and the amount of text
between each section.

Instead, let's make a flat list of groupings, and underline
each as a section header. That makes them stand out, and
eliminates the weird half-phrase of "Related to...". Like:

    Functions related to the contents of the buffer

bdfdaa4978 strbuf.h: integrate api-strbuf.txt documentation
Some of strbuf is documented as comments above functions,
and some is separate in Documentation/technical/api-strbuf.txt.
This makes it annoying to find the appropriate documentation.
We'd rather have it all in one place, which means all in the
text document, or all in the header.

Let's choose the header as that place. Even though the
formatting is not quite as pretty, this keeps the
documentation close to the related code.  The hope is that
this makes it easier to find what you want (human-readable
comments are right next to the C declarations), and easier
for writers to keep the documentation up to date.

This is more or less a straight import of the text from
api-strbuf.txt into C comments, complete with asciidoc
formatting. The exceptions are:

 1. All comments created in this way are started with "/**"
    to indicate they are part of the API documentation. This
    may help later with extracting the text to pretty-print
    it.

 2. Function descriptions do not repeat the function name,
    as it is available in the context directly below.  So:

      `strbuf_add`::

          Add data of given length to the buffer.

    from api-strbuf.txt becomes:

      /**
       * Add data of given length to the buffer.
       */
      void strbuf_add(struct strbuf *sb, const void *, size_t);

    As a result, any block-continuation required in asciidoc
    for that list item was dropped in favor of straight
    blank-line paragraph (since it is not necessary when we
    are not in a list item).

 3. There is minor re-wording to integrate existing comments
    and api-strbuf text. In each case, I took whichever
    version was more descriptive, and eliminated any
    redundancies. In one case, for strbuf_addstr, the api
    documentation gave its inline definition; I eliminated
    this as redundant with the actual definition, which can
    be seen directly below the comment.

 4. The functions in the header file are re-ordered to match
    the ordering of the API documentation, under the
    assumption that more thought went into the grouping
    there.

Separate text formatting from size simplification and make the

We now can use strbuf_humanise_bytes() for both downloaded size and

now look like this when download is stalled: "0 bytes/s" instead of

The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end

 - Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.

17b73dc699 strbuf_split*(): rename "delim" parameter to "terminator"
The word "delimiter" suggests that the argument separates the
substrings, whereas in fact (1) the delimiter characters are included
in the output, and (2) if the input string ends with the delimiter,
then the output does not include a final empty string.  So rename the
"delim" arguments of the strbuf_split() family of functions to
"terminator", which is more suggestive of how it is used.

895680f044 fmt-merge-msg: Add contents of merged tag in the merge message
When a contributor asks the integrator to merge her history, a signed tag
can be a good vehicle to communicate the authenticity of the request while
conveying other information such as the purpose of the topic.

E.g. a signed tag "for-linus" can be created, and the integrator can run:

   $ git pull git://example.com/work.git/ for-linus

This would allow the integrator to run "git verify-tag FETCH_HEAD" to
validate the signed tag.

Update fmt-merge-msg so that it pre-fills the merge message template with
the body (but not signature) of the tag object to help the integrator write
a better merge message, in the same spirit as the existing merge.log summary
lines.

The message that comes from GPG signature validation is also included in
the merge message template to help the integrator verify it, but they are
prefixed with "#" to make them comments.

28fc3a6857 strbuf_split: add a max parameter
Sometimes when splitting, you only want a limited number of
fields, and for the final field to contain "everything
else", even if it includes the delimiter.

This patch introduces strbuf_split_max, which provides a
"max number of fields" parameter; it behaves similarly to
perl's "split" with a 3rd field.

The existing 2-argument form of strbuf_split is retained for
compatibility and ease-of-use.

7141efab24 strbuf: clarify assertion in strbuf_setlen()
Commit a8f3e2219 introduced the strbuf_grow() call to strbuf_setlen() to
make ensure that there was at least one byte available to write the
mandatory trailing NUL, even for previously unallocated strbufs.

Then b315c5c0 added strbuf_slopbuf for the same reason, only globally for
all uses of strbufs.

Thus the strbuf_grow() call can be removed now.  This avoids readers of
strbuf.h from mistakenly thinking that strbuf_setlen() can be used to
extend a strbuf.

The following assert() needs to be changed to cope with the fact that
sb->alloc can now be zero, which is OK as long as len is also zero.  As
suggested by Junio, use the chance to convert it to a die() with a short
explanatory message.  The pattern of 'die("BUG: ...")' is already used in
strbuf.c.

This was the only assert() in strbuf.[ch], so assert.h doesn't have to be
included anymore either.

ebeb60900f strbuf: add strbuf_vaddf
In a variable-args function, the code for writing into a strbuf is
non-trivial. We ended up cutting and pasting it in several places
because there was no vprintf-style function for strbufs (which in turn
was held up by a lack of va_copy).

Now that we have a fallback va_copy, we can add strbuf_vaddf, the
strbuf equivalent of vsprintf. And we can clean up the cut and paste
mess.

b11b7e13f4 Add generic 'strbuf_readlink()' helper function
It was already what 'git apply' did in read_old_data(), just export it
as a real function, and make it be more generic.

In particular, this handles the case of the lstat() st_size data not
matching the readlink() return value properly (which apparently happens
at least on NTFS under Linux).  But as a result of this you could also
use the new function without even knowing how big the link is going to
be, and it will allocate an appropriately sized buffer.

So we pass in the st_size of the link as just a hint, rather than a
fixed requirement.

with the placeholder member set to NULL.

The new helper is intended to aid converting the remaining calls of
interpolate().  strbuf_expand() is smaller, more flexible and can be

cde75e59e1 --pretty=format: on-demand format expansion
Some of the --pretty=format placeholders expansions are expensive to
calculate.  This is made worse by the current code's use of
interpolate(), which requires _all_ placeholders are to be prepared
up front.

One way to speed this up is to check which placeholders are present
in the format string and to prepare only the expansions that are
needed.  That still leaves the allocation overhead of interpolate().

Another way is to use a callback based approach together with the
strbuf library to keep allocations to a minimum and avoid string
copies.  That's what this patch does.  It introduces a new strbuf
function, strbuf_expand().

The function takes a format string, list of placeholder strings,
a user supplied function 'fn', and an opaque pointer 'context'
to tell 'fn' what thingy to operate on.

The function 'fn' is expected to accept a strbuf, a parsed
placeholder string and the 'context' pointer, and append the
interpolated value for the 'context' thingy, according to the
format specified by the placeholder.

Thanks to Pierre Habouzit for his suggestion to use strchrnul() and
the code surrounding its callsite.  And thanks to Junio for most of
this commit message. :)

b315c5c081 strbuf change: be sure ->buf is never ever NULL.
For that purpose, the ->buf is always initialized with a char * buf living
in the strbuf module. It is made a char * so that we can sloppily accept
things that perform: sb->buf[0] = '\0', and because you can't pass "" as an
initializer for ->buf without making gcc unhappy for very good reasons.

strbuf_init/_detach/_grow have been fixed to trust ->alloc and not ->buf
anymore.

as a consequence strbuf_detach is _mandatory_ to detach a buffer, copying
->buf isn't an option anymore, if ->buf is going to escape from the scope,
and eventually be free'd.

API changes:
  * strbuf_setlen now always works, so just make strbuf_reset a convenience
    macro.
  * strbuf_detatch takes a size_t* optional argument (meaning it can be
    NULL) to copy the buffer's len, as it was needed for this refactor to
    make the code more readable, and working like the callers.

read_line is now strbuf_getline, and is a first class citizen, it returns 0
when reading a line worked, EOF else.

The ->eof marker was used non-locally by fast-import.c, mimic the same
behaviour using a static int in "read_next_command", that now returns -1 on
EOF, and avoids to call strbuf_getline when it's in EOF state.

Also no longer automagically strbuf_release the buffer, it's counter
intuitive and breaks fast-import in a very subtle way.

Note: being at EOF implies that command_buf.len == 0.

917c9a7133 New strbuf APIs: splice and attach.
* strbuf_splice replace a portion of the buffer with another.
* strbuf_attach replace a strbuf buffer with the given one, that should be
  malloc'ed. Then it enforces strbuf's invariants. If alloc > len, then this
  function has negligible cost, else it will perform a realloc, possibly
  with a cost.

Also some style issues are fixed now.

f1696ee398 Strbuf API extensions and fixes.
* Add strbuf_rtrim to remove trailing spaces.
  * Add strbuf_insert to insert data at a given position.
  * Off-by one fix in strbuf_addf: strbuf_avail() does not counts the final
    \0 so the overflow test for snprintf is the strict comparison. This is
    not critical as the growth mechanism chosen will always allocate _more_
    memory than asked, so the second test will not fail. It's some kind of
    miracle though.
  * Add size extension hints for strbuf_init and strbuf_read. If 0, default
    applies, else:
      + initial buffer has the given size for strbuf_init.
      + first growth checks it has at least this size rather than the
        default 8192.

b449f4cfc9 Rework strbuf API and semantics.
The gory details are explained in strbuf.h. The change of semantics this
patch enforces is that the embeded buffer has always a '\0' character after
its last byte, to always make it a C-string. The offs-by-one changes are all
related to that very change.

  A strbuf can be used to store byte arrays, or as an extended string
library. The `buf' member can be passed to any C legacy string function,
because strbuf operations always ensure there is a terminating \0 at the end
of the buffer, not accounted in the `len' field of the structure.

  A strbuf can be used to generate a string/buffer whose final size is not
really known, and then "strbuf_detach" can be used to get the built buffer,
and keep the wrapping "strbuf" structure usable for further work again.

  Other interesting feature: strbuf_grow(sb, size) ensure that there is
enough allocated space in `sb' to put `size' new octets of data in the
buffer. It helps avoiding reallocating data for nothing when the problem the
strbuf helps to solve has a known typical size.

d1df574380 [PATCH] Introduce diff-tree-helper.
This patch introduces a new program, diff-tree-helper.  It reads
output from diff-cache and diff-tree, and produces a patch file.
The diff format customization can be done the same way the
show-diff uses; the same external diff interface introduced by
the previous patch to drive diff from show-diff is used so this
is not surprising.

It is used like the following examples:

   $ diff-cache --cached -z <tree> | diff-tree-helper -z -R paths...
   $ diff-tree -r -z <tree1> <tree2> | diff-tree-helper -z paths...

 - As usual, the use of the -z flag is recommended in the script
   to pass NUL-terminated filenames through the pipe between
   commands.

 - The -R flag is used to generate reverse diff.  It does not
   matter for diff-tree case, but it is sometimes useful to get
   a patch in the desired direction out of diff-cache.

 - The paths parameters are used to restrict the paths that
   appears in the output.  Again this is useful to use with
   diff-cache, which, unlike diff-tree, does not take such paths
   restriction parameters.
