Kaartic Sivaraam e2bbd0cc4c branch: group related arguments of create_branch()
39bd6f726 (Allow checkout -B <current-branch> to update the current
branch, 2011-11-26) added 'clobber_head' (now, 'clobber_head_ok')
"before" 'track' as 'track' was closely related 'clobber_head' for
the purpose the commit wanted to achieve. Looking from the perspective
of how the arguments are used it turns out that 'clobber_head' is
more related to 'force' than it is to 'track'.

So, re-order the arguments to keep the related arguments close
to each other.

Kaartic Sivaraam f6cea74de6 branch: improve documentation and naming of create_branch() parameters
The documentation for 'create_branch()' was incomplete as it didn't say
what certain parameters were used for. Further a parameter name wasn't
very communicative.

So, add missing documentation for the sake of completeness and easy
reference. Also, rename the concerned parameter to make its name more
communicative.

Eric Sunshine ade546be47 worktree: invoke post-checkout hook (unless --no-checkout)
git-clone and git-checkout both invoke the post-checkout hook following
a successful checkout, yet git-worktree neglects to do so even though it
too "checks out" the worktree. Fix this oversight.

Implementation note: The newly-created worktree may reference a branch
or be detached. In the latter case, a commit lookup is performed, though
the result is used only in a boolean sense to (a) determine if the
commit actually exists, and (b) assign either the branch name or commit
ID to HEAD. Since the post-commit hook needs to know the ID of the
checked-out commit, the lookup now needs to be done in all cases, rather
than only when detached. Consequently, a new boolean is needed to handle
(b) since the lookup result itself can no longer perform that role.

René Scharfe c3ff8f6c14 strbuf: release memory on read error in strbuf_read_once()
If other strbuf add functions cause the first allocation and
subsequently encounter an error then they release the memory, restoring
the pristine state of the strbuf.  That simplifies error handling for
callers.

Do the same in strbuf_read_once(), and do it also in case no bytes were
read -- which may or may not be an error as well, depending on the
caller.

Lars Schneider abfb04d0c7 launch_editor(): indicate that Git waits for user input
When a graphical GIT_EDITOR is spawned by a Git command that opens
and waits for user input (e.g. "git rebase -i"), then the editor window
might be obscured by other windows. The user might be left staring at
the original Git terminal window without even realizing that s/he needs
to interact with another window before Git can proceed. To this user Git
appears hanging.

Print a message that Git is waiting for editor input in the original
terminal and get rid of it when the editor returns, if the terminal
supports erasing the last line.  Also, make sure that our message is
terminated with a whitespace so that any message the editor may show
upon starting up will be kept separate from our message.

Power users might not want to see this message or their editor might
already print such a message (e.g. emacsclient). Allow these users to
suppress the message by disabling the "advice.waitingForEditor" config.

The standard advise() function is not used here as it would always add
a newline which would make deleting the message harder.

SZEDER Gábor 176b2d328c setup.c: fix comment about order of .git directory discovery
Since gitfiles were introduced in b44ebb19e (Add platform-independent
.git "symlink", 2008-02-20) the order of checks during .git directory
discovery is: gitfile, gitdir, bare repo.  However, that commit did
only partially update the in-code comment describing this order,
missing the last line which still puts gitdir before gitfile.

Brandon Williams fd66bcc31f diff-tree: read the index so attribute checks work in bare repositories
A regression was introduced in 557a5998d (submodule: remove
gitmodules_config, 2017-08-03) to how attribute processing was handled
in bare repositories when running the diff-tree command.

By default the attribute system will first try to read ".gitattribute"
files from the working tree and then falls back to reading them from the
index if there isn't a copy checked out in the worktree.  Prior to
557a5998d the index was read as a side effect of the call to
'gitmodules_config()' which ensured that the index was already populated
before entering the attribute subsystem.

Since the call to 'gitmodules_config()' was removed the index is no
longer being read so when the attribute system tries to read from the
in-memory index it doesn't find any ".gitattribute" entries effectively
ignoring any configured attributes.

Fix this by explicitly reading the index during the setup of diff-tree.

Robert Abel 041fe8fc83 git-prompt: fix reading files with windows line endings
If any of the files read by __git_eread have \r\n line endings, read
will only strip \n, leaving \r. This results in an ugly prompt, where
instead of

    user@pc MINGW64 /path/to/repo (BARE:master)

the last parenthesis is printed over the beginning of the prompt like

    )ser@pc MINGW64 /path/to/repo (BARE:master

This patch fixes the issue by changing the internal field separator
variable IFS to $'\r\n' before using the read builtin command.

Note that ANSI-C Quoting/POSIX Quoting ($'...') is supported by bash
as well as zsh, which are the current targets of git-prompt, cf.
contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh.

Thomas Gummerer 71d6682d8c worktree: add --guess-remote flag to add subcommand
Currently 'git worktree add <path>' creates a new branch named after the
basename of the <path>, that matches the HEAD of whichever worktree we
were on when calling "git worktree add <path>".

It's sometimes useful to have 'git worktree add <path> behave more like
the dwim machinery in 'git checkout <new-branch>', i.e. check if the new
branch name, derived from the basename of the <path>, uniquely matches
the branch name of a remote-tracking branch, and if so check out that
branch and set the upstream to the remote-tracking branch.

Add a new --guess-remote option that enables exactly that behaviour.

Internaly we use 0{40} as a placeholder object name to signal the
codepath that there is no such object (e.g. the fast-forward check
while "git fetch" stores a new remote-tracking ref says "we know
there is no 'old' thing pointed at by the ref, as we are creating
it anew" by passing 0{40} for the 'old' side), and expect that a
codepath to locate an in-core object to return NULL as a sign that
the object does not exist.  A look-up for an object that does not
exist however is quite costly with a repository with large number

Because our test suite is not about validating the working of the
shell, it is pointless to test variations of how a literal string
'yes' is quoted when assigned to an environment variable.

Instead, test various ways to spell 'yes' (we use strcasecmp() so
uppercased and capitalized variant should work just like 'yes'
spelled in all lowercase) and make sure we take them as 'yes'.  That
is more relevant in testing Git.

Ann T Ropea b4c02c3008 t4013: prepare for upcoming "diff --raw --abbrev" output format change
Most of the t4013 tests go through a list of sample command lines,
and each of them is executed and its output compared with an
expected one stored in t4013/ directory.  Allow these lines to begin
with a colon followed by magic word(s) so that test conditions can
easily be tweaked.

The expected use that will happen in later steps of this is to run
tests expecting the traditional output and run the same test without
the GIT_PRINT_SHA1_ELLIPSIS=yes environment exported for (perhaps
some of) them, which will have to expect different output.  Since
all of the existing tests are meant to run with the environment,
use the magic word "noellipses" to cause the variable not to be set
and exported.

As this step does not add any new test with the magic word, all
tests still run with the environment variable, expecting the
traditional output, but it will change soon.
