Johannes Schindelin 920f22e6bc merge: allow reading the merge commit message from a file
This is consistent with `git commit` which, like `git merge`, supports
passing the commit message via `-m <msg>` and, unlike `git merge` before
this patch, via `-F <file>`.

It is useful to allow this for scripted use, or for the upcoming patch
to allow (re-)creating octopus merges in `git rebase --rebase-merges`.

Derrick Stolee 7adf526670 merge: check config before loading commits
Now that we use generation numbers from the commit-graph, we must
ensure that all commits that exist in the commit-graph are loaded
from that file instead of from the object database. Since the
commit-graph file is only checked if core.commitGraph is true, we
must check the default config before we load any commits.

In the merge builtin, the config was checked after loading the HEAD
commit. This was due to the use of the global 'branch' when checking
merge-specific config settings.

Move the config load to be between the initialization of 'branch' and
the commit lookup.

Without this change, a fast-forward merge would hit a BUG("bad
generation skip") statement in commit.c during paint_down_to_common().
This is because the HEAD commit would be loaded with "infinite"
generation but then reached by commits with "finite" generation
numbers.

Add a test to t5318-commit-graph.sh that exercises this code path to
prevent a regression.

Migrate all git_path_* functions that are defined in path.c to take a
repository argument. Unlike other patches in this series, do not use the
 #define trick, as we rewrite the whole function, which is rather small.

This doesn't migrate all the functions, as other builtins have their own
local path functions defined using GIT_PATH_FUNC. So keep that macro
around to serve the other locations.

Martin Ågren b227586831 lock_file: make function-local locks non-static
Placing `struct lock_file`s on the stack used to be a bad idea, because
the temp- and lockfile-machinery would keep a pointer into the struct.
But after 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap,
2017-09-05), we can safely have lockfiles on the stack. (This applies
even if a user returns early, leaving a locked lock behind.)

These `struct lock_file`s are local to their respective functions and we
can drop their staticness.

For good measure, I have inspected these sites and come to believe that
they always release the lock, with the possible exception of bailing out
using `die()` or `exit()` or by returning from a `cmd_foo()`.

As pointed out by Jeff King, it would be bad if someone held on to a
`struct lock_file *` for some reason. After some grepping, I agree with
his findings: no-one appears to be doing that.

Junio C Hamano f88590e675 Merge branch 'jc/allow-ff-merging-kept-tags'
Since Git 1.7.9, "git merge" defaulted to --no-ff (i.e. even when
the side branch being merged is a descendant of the current commit,
create a merge commit instead of fast-forwarding) when merging a
tag object.  This was appropriate default for integrators who pull
signed tags from their downstream contributors, but caused an
unnecessary merges when used by downstream contributors who
habitually "catch up" their topic branches with tagged releases
from the upstream.  Update "git merge" to default to --no-ff only
when merging a tag object that does *not* sit at its usual place in
refs/tags/ hierarchy, and allow fast-forwarding otherwise, to
mitigate the problem.

* jc/allow-ff-merging-kept-tags:
  merge: allow fast-forward when merging a tracked tag
2018-03-06 14:54:04 -08:00
Martin Ågren 610008146e write_locked_index(): add flag to avoid writing unchanged index
We have several callers like

	if (active_cache_changed && write_locked_index(...))
		handle_error();
	rollback_lock_file(...);

where the final rollback is needed because "!active_cache_changed"
shortcuts the if-expression. There are also a few variants of this,
including some if-else constructs that make it more clear when the
explicit rollback is really needed.

Teach `write_locked_index()` to take a new flag SKIP_IF_UNCHANGED and
simplify the callers. Leave the most complicated of the callers (in
builtin/update-index.c) unchanged. Rewriting it to use this new flag
would end up duplicating logic.

We could have made the new flag behave the other way round
("FORCE_WRITE"), but that could break existing users behind their backs.
Let's take the more conservative approach. We can still migrate existing
callers to use our new flag. Later we might even be able to flip the
default, possibly without entirely ignoring the risk to in-flight or
out-of-tree topics.

Junio C Hamano adcc94a0aa merge: allow fast-forward when merging a tracked tag
Long time ago at fab47d05 ("merge: force edit and no-ff mode when
merging a tag object", 2011-11-07), "git merge" was made to always
create a merge commit when merging a tag, even when the side branch
being merged is a descendant of the current branch.

This default is good for merges made by upstream maintainers to
integrate work signed by downstream contributors, but will leave
pointless no-ff merges when downstream contributors pull a newer
release tag to make their long-running topic branches catch up with
the upstream.  When there is no local work left on the topic, such a
merge should simply fast-forward to the commit pointed at by the
release tag.

Update the default (again) for "git merge" that merges a tag object
to (1) --no-ff (i.e. create a merge commit even when side branch
fast forwards) if the tag being merged is not at its expected place
in refs/tags/ hierarchy and (2) --ff (i.e. allow fast-forward update
when able) otherwise.

Stefan Beller f8b863598c builtin/merge: honor commit-msg hook for merges
Similar to 65969d43d1 (merge: honor prepare-commit-msg hook, 2011-02-14)
merge should also honor the commit-msg hook: When a merge is stopped due
to conflicts or --no-commit, the subsequent commit calls the commit-msg
hook.  However, it is not called after a clean merge. Fix this
inconsistency by invoking the hook after clean merges as well.

This change is motivated by Gerrit's commit-msg hook to install a ChangeId
trailer into the commit message. Without such a ChangeId, Gerrit refuses
to accept any commit by default, such that the inconsistency of (not)
running the commit-msg hook between commit and merge leads to confusion
and might block people from getting their work done.

As the githooks man page is very vocal about the possibility of skipping
the commit-msg hook via the --no-verify option, implement the option
in merge, too.

'git merge --continue' is currently implemented as calling cmd_commit
with no further arguments. This works for most other merge related options,
such as demonstrated via the --allow-unrelated-histories flag in the
test. The --no-verify option however is not remembered across invocations
of git-merge. Originally the author assumed an alternative in which the
'git merge --continue' command accepts the --no-verify flag, but that
opens up the discussion which flags are allows to the continued merge
command and which must be given in the first invocation.

Michael J Gruber 9d89b35526 merge: save merge state earlier
If the `git merge` process is killed while waiting for the editor to
finish, the merge state is lost but the prepared merge msg and tree is kept.
So, a subsequent `git commit` creates a squashed merge even when the
user asked for proper merge commit originally.

Demonstrate the problem with a test crafted after the in t7502. The test
requires EXECKEEPSPID (thus does not run under MINGW).

Save the merge state earlier (in the non-squash case) so that it does
not get lost. This makes the test pass.

Michael J Gruber 8e6a6bb360 merge: split write_merge_state in two
write_merge_state() writes out the merge heads, mode, and msg. But we
may want to write out heads, mode without the msg. So, split out heads
(+mode) into a separate function write_merge_heads() that is called by
write_merge_state().

No funtional change so far, except when these non-atomic writes are
interrupted: we write heads-mode-msg now when we used to write
heads-msg-mode.

Michael J Gruber 62dc42b937 merge: clarify call chain
prepare_to_commit() cannot be reached in the non-squash case:
It is called by merge_trivial() and finish_automerge() only, but the
calls to the latter are somewhat hard to track:

If option_commit is not set, the code in cmd_merge() uses a fake
conflict return code (ret=1) to avoid writing the tree, which also
avoids setting automerge_was_ok (just as in the proper ret==1 case), so
that finish_automerge() is not called.

To ensure that no code change breaks that assumption, safe-guard
prepare_to_commit() by a BUG() statement.

xfopen()

 - provides error details
 - explains error on reading, or writing, or whatever operation
 - has l10n support
 - prints file name in the error

Some of these are missing in the places that are replaced with xfopen(),
which is a clear win. In some other places, it's just less code (not as
clearly a win as the previous case but still is).

The only slight regresssion is in remote-testsvn, where we don't report

this is a _test_ svn remote transport, I'm not too concerned.

Convert lookup_commit, lookup_commit_or_die,

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.

Jeff King 0e9f62dab9 interpret_branch_name: allow callers to restrict expansions
The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like
@{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref
names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the
refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and
"@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/").

This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily
interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where
it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a
branch name in refs/heads/.  When we expand to a ref outside
that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git
branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is
nonsense).

Callers can't know from the returned string how the
expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a
branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One
fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the
types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that
the caller can generate precise error messages ("I
understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a
remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local
name").

However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat
cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller
tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in,
and none of the callers give more precise error messages
than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which
should be sufficient).

The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter,
as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name()
through it.

We can break the callers down into two groups:

  1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the
     result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work
     without restrictions. This includes merge_name(),
     the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(),
     and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers
     dwim_ref().

  2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in
     git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of
     the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this
     patch, and will address them individually in follow-on
     patches.

Junio C Hamano 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.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
---

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.

Jeff King ef2ed5013c find_unique_abbrev: use 4-buffer ring
Some code paths want to format multiple abbreviated sha1s in
the same output line. Because we use a single static buffer
for our return value, they have to either break their output
into several calls or allocate their own arrays and use
find_unique_abbrev_r().

Intead, let's mimic sha1_to_hex() and use a ring of several
buffers, so that the return value stays valid through
multiple calls. This shortens some of the callers, and makes
it harder to for them to make a silly mistake.

Johannes Schindelin f241ff0d0a prepare the builtins for a libified merge_recursive()
Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that
code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we
called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a
message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128).

As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed,
idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to
inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into
builtins, using library functions directly.

We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin
git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily
because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to
call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful
advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to
fix that.

The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with
some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees()
is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error()
instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before),
so that the caller can react more flexibly.

This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no
longer dies,  even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling
exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect.

Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already
fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they
now get a chance to say "<command> failed".

A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves
(or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we
leave that change for a later patch.

Elijah Newren 40d71940b6 builtin/merge.c: fix a bug with trivial merges
If read_tree_trivial() succeeds and produces a tree that is already
in the object store, then the index is not written to disk, leaving
it out-of-sync with both HEAD and the working tree.

In order to write the index back out to disk after a merge,
write_index_locked() needs to be called.  For most merge strategies, this
is done from try_merge_strategy().  For fast forward updates, this is
done from checkout_fast_forward().  When trivial merges work, the call to
write_index_locked() is buried a little deeper:

  merge_trivial()
  -> write_tree_trivial()
     -> write_cache_as_tree()
        -> write_index_as_tree()
           -> write_locked_index()

However, it is only called when !cache_tree_fully_valid(), which is how
this bug is triggered.  But that also shows why this bug doesn't affect
any other merge strategies or cases.

Add a direct call to write_index_locked() from merge_trivial() to fix
this issue.  Since the indirect call to write_locked_index() was
conditional on cache_tree_fully_valid(), it won't be written twice.

Junio C Hamano e379fdf34f merge: refuse to create too cool a merge by default
While it makes sense to allow merging unrelated histories of two
projects that started independently into one, in the way "gitk" was
merged to "git" itself aka "the coolest merge ever", such a merge is
still an unusual event.	 Worse, if somebody creates an independent
history by starting from a tarball of an established project and
sends a pull request to the original project, "git merge" however
happily creates such a merge without any sign of something unusual
is happening.

Teach "git merge" to refuse to create such a merge by default,
unless the user passes a new "--allow-unrelated-histories" option to
tell it that the user is aware that two unrelated projects are
merged.

Because such a "two project merge" is a rare event, a configuration
option to always allow such a merge is not added.

We could add the same option to "git pull" and have it passed
through to underlying "git merge".  I do not have a fundamental
opposition against such a feature, but this commit does not do so
and instead leaves it as low-hanging fruit for others, because such
a "two project merge" would be done after fetching the other project
into some location in the working tree of an existing project and
making sure how well they fit together, it is sufficient to allow a
local merge without such an option pass-through from "git pull" to
"git merge".  Many tests that are updated by this patch does the
pass-through manually by turning:

	git pull something

into its equivalent:

	git fetch something &&
	git merge --allow-unrelated-histories FETCH_HEAD

If somebody is inclined to add such an option, updated tests in this
change need to be adjusted back to:

	git pull --allow-unrelated-histories something

Rename detection is a very convenient feature, and new users shouldn't
have to dig in the documentation to benefit from it.

Potential objections to activating rename detection are that it
sometimes fail, and it is sometimes slow. But rename detection is
already activated by default in several cases like "git status" and "git
merge", so activating diff.renames does not fundamentally change the
situation. When the rename detection fails, it now fails consistently
between "git diff" and "git status".

This setting does not affect plumbing commands, hence well-written

Tobias Klauser 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().

Jeff King d59f765ac9 use sha1_to_hex_r() instead of strcpy
Before sha1_to_hex_r() existed, a simple way to get hex
sha1 into a buffer was with:

  strcpy(buf, sha1_to_hex(sha1));

This isn't wrong (assuming the buf is 41 characters), but it
makes auditing the code base for bad strcpy() calls harder,
as these become false positives.

Let's convert them to sha1_to_hex_r(), and likewise for
some calls to find_unique_abbrev(). While we're here, we'll
double-check that all of the buffers are correctly sized,
and use the more obvious GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ constant.

Jeff King f932729cc7 memoize common git-path "constant" files
One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a
constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two
drawbacks:

  1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime
     is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc.

  2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This
     is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it
     correctly at least once), but many of these constant
     strings appear throughout the code.

This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize"
these strings, which are essentially globals for the
lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take
ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for
subsequent calls.  cache.h provides a helper macro for
defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few
common ones for global use.

Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely
document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch
them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the
git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of
the stored values), it will be much easier to have the
complete list.

Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual
declarations. We could do something clever with the macros
(e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a
declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't
that many, and it's probably better to stay away from
too-magical macros.

Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of
generating these with a script, we could get much fancier.
E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz".
But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth
the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the
function's definition.

Jeff King 9e3751d443 remote.c: drop "remote" pointer from "struct branch"
When we create each branch struct, we fill in the
"remote_name" field from the config, and then fill in the
actual "remote" field (with a "struct remote") based on that
name. However, it turns out that nobody really cares about
the latter field. The only two sites that access it at all
are:

  1. git-merge, which uses it to notice when the branch does
     not have a remote defined. But we can easily replace this
     with looking at remote_name instead.

  2. remote.c itself, when setting up the @{upstream} merge
     config. But we don't need to save the "remote" in the
     "struct branch" for that; we can just look it up for
     the duration of the operation.

So there is no need to have both fields; they are redundant
with each other (the struct remote contains the name, or you
can look up the struct from the name). It would be nice to
simplify this, especially as we are going to add matching
pushremote config in a future patch (and it would be nice to
keep them consistent).

So which one do we keep and which one do we get rid of?

If we had a lot of callers accessing the struct, it would be
more efficient to keep it (since you have to do a lookup to
go from the name to the struct, but not vice versa). But we
don't have a lot of callers; we have exactly one, so
efficiency doesn't matter. We can decide this based on
simplicity and readability.

And the meaning of the struct value is somewhat unclear. Is
it always the remote matching remote_name? If remote_name is
NULL (i.e., no per-branch config), does the struct fall back
to the "origin" remote, or is it also NULL? These questions
will get even more tricky with pushremotes, whose fallback
behavior is more complicated. So let's just store the name,
which pretty clearly represents the branch.*.remote config.
Any lookup or fallback behavior can then be implemented in
helper functions.

Junio C Hamano d45366e8aa merge: deprecate 'git merge <message> HEAD <commit>' syntax
We had this in "git merge" manual for eternity:

    'git merge' <msg> HEAD <commit>...

    [This] syntax (<msg> `HEAD` <commit>...) is supported for
    historical reasons.  Do not use it from the command line or in
    new scripts.  It is the same as `git merge -m <msg> <commit>...`.

With the update to "git merge" to make it understand what is
recorded in FETCH_HEAD directly, including Octopus merge cases, we
now can rewrite the use of this syntax in "git pull" with a simple
"git merge FETCH_HEAD".

Also there are quite a few fallouts in the test scripts, and it
turns out that "git cvsimport" also uses this old syntax to record
a merge.

Judging from this result, I would not be surprised if dropping the
support of the old syntax broke scripts people have written and been
relying on for the past ten years.  But at least we can start the
deprecation process by throwing a warning message when the syntax is
used.

With luck, we might be able to drop the support in a few years.

Junio C Hamano 74e8bc59cb merge: handle FETCH_HEAD internally
The collect_parents() function now is responsible for

 1. parsing the commits given on the command line into a list of
    commits to be merged;

 2. filtering these parents into independent ones; and

 3. optionally calling fmt_merge_msg() via prepare_merge_message()
    to prepare an auto-generated merge log message, using fake
    contents that FETCH_HEAD would have had if these commits were
    fetched from the current repository with "git pull . $args..."

Make "git merge FETCH_HEAD" to be the same as the traditional

    git merge "$(git fmt-merge-msg <.git/FETCH_HEAD)" $commits

invocation of the command in "git pull", where $commits are the ones
that appear in FETCH_HEAD that are not marked as not-for-merge, by
making it do a bit more, specifically:

 - noticing "FETCH_HEAD" is the only "commit" on the command line
   and picking the commits that are not marked as not-for-merge as
   the list of commits to be merged (substitute for step #1 above);

 - letting the resulting list fed to step #2 above;

 - doing the step #3 above, using the contents of the FETCH_HEAD
   instead of fake contents crafted from the list of commits parsed
   in the step #1 above.

Note that this changes the semantics.  "git merge FETCH_HEAD" has
always behaved as if the first commit in the FETCH_HEAD file were
directly specified on the command line, creating a two-way merge
whose auto-generated merge log said "merge commit xyz".  With this
change, if the previous fetch was to grab multiple branches (e.g.
"git fetch $there topic-a topic-b"), the new world order is to
create an octopus, behaving as if "git pull $there topic-a topic-b"
were run.  This is a deliberate change to make that happen, and
can be seen in the changes to t3033 tests.

Junio C Hamano 0b10b8a3d5 merge: clarify collect_parents() logic
Clarify this small function in three ways.

 - The function initially collects all commits to be merged into a
   commit_list "remoteheads"; the "remotes" pointer always points at
   the tail of this list (either the remoteheads variable itself, or
   the ->next slot of the element at the end of the list) to help
   elongate the list by repeated calls to commit_list_insert().
   Because the new element appended by commit_list_insert() will
   always have its ->next slot NULLed out, there is no need for us
   to assign NULL to *remotes to terminate the list at the end.

 - The variable "head_subsumed" always confused me every time I read
   this code.  What is happening here is that we inspect what the
   caller told us to merge (including the current HEAD) and come up
   with the list of parents to be recorded for the resulting merge
   commit, omitting commits that are ancestor of other commits.
   This filtering may remove the current HEAD from the resulting
   parent list---and we signal that fact with this variable, so that
   we can later record it as the first parent when "--no-ff" is in
   effect.

 - The "parents" list is created for this function by reduce_heads()
   and was not deallocated after its use, even though the loop
   control was written in such a way to allow us to do so by taking
   the "next" element in a separate variable so that it can be used
   in the next-step part of the loop control.

This reverts commit 2bf15a3330, whose
intention was good, but the verbosity levels used in merge-recursive

with conflicting submodule updates used to report CONFLICT: output
with --quiet but no longer (which *is* desired), while the final
"Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit" message is
still shown even with --quiet (which *is* inconsistent).

Originally reported by Bryan Turner; it is too early to declare what
the concensus is, but it seems that we would need to level the
verbosity levels used in merge strategy backends before we can go
forward.  In the meantime, we'd revert to the old behaviour until

Jeff King 2bf15a3330 merge: pass verbosity flag down to merge-recursive
This makes "git merge --quiet" really quiet when we call
into merge-recursive.

Note that we can't just pass our flag down as-is; the two
parts of the code use different scales. We center at "0" as
normal for git-merge (with "--quiet" giving a negative
value), but merge-recursive uses "2" as its center.  This
patch passes a negative value to merge-recursive rather than
"1", though, as otherwise the user would have to use "-qqq"
to squelch all messages (but the downside is that the user
cannot distinguish between levels 0-2 if without resorting
to the GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY variable).

We may want to review and renormalize the message severities
in merge-recursive, but that does not have to happen now.
This is at least in improvement in the sense that we are
respecting "--quiet" at all.

René Scharfe d318027932 run-command: introduce CHILD_PROCESS_INIT
Most struct child_process variables are cleared using memset first after
declaration.  Provide a macro, CHILD_PROCESS_INIT, that can be used to
initialize them statically instead.  That's shorter, doesn't require a
function call and is slightly more readable (especially given that we
already have STRBUF_INIT, ARGV_ARRAY_INIT etc.).

Jeff King 3ffefb54c0 commit_tree: take a pointer/len pair rather than a const strbuf
While strbufs are pretty common throughout our code, it is
more flexible for functions to take a pointer/len pair than
a strbuf. It's easy to turn a strbuf into such a pair (by
dereferencing its members), but less easy to go the other
way (you can strbuf_attach, but that has implications about
memory ownership).

This patch teaches commit_tree (and its associated callers
and sub-functions) to take such a pair for the commit
message rather than a strbuf.  This makes passing the buffer
around slightly more verbose, but means we can get rid of
some dangerous strbuf_attach calls in the next patch.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 9c5e6c802c Convert "struct cache_entry *" to "const ..." wherever possible
I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is

 - diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE

 - name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED

 - preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
   builtin/update-index: obvious

 - entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
   fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
   *" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
   builtin/checkout.c

 - builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
   CE_UPDATE

Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.

So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.

The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then
this:

    diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h
    index 430d021..1692891 100644

Miklos Vajna a54841e96b merge: handle --ff/--no-ff/--ff-only as a tri-state option
These three options mean "favor fast-forwarding when possible,
without creating an unnecessary merge", "never fast-forward and
always create a merge commit even when the commit being merged is a
strict descendant", and "we do not want to create any merge commit;
update only when the merged commit is a strict descendant".

They are "pick one out of these three possibilities" options, and
correspond to "merge.ff" configuration that is tri-state (yes, no
and only).

However, the implementation did not follow the usual convention for
the command line options (later one wins, and command line overrides
what is in the configuration).

Fix this by consolidating two variables (fast_forward_only and
allow_fast_forward) used in the implementation into one enum that
can take one of the three possible values.

The user could have said "git merge $(git rev-parse v1.0.0)"; we
shouldn't mark it as "Merge commit '15999998fb...'" as the merge
name, even though such an invocation might be crazy.

We could even read the "tag " header from the tag object and replace
the object name the user gave us, but let's not lose the information
by doing so, at least not yet.

Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message.  Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.

The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end
users.  They have a choice between

 - Don't do it.  Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and

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

Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.

    $ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit

so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.

65969d4 (merge: honor prepare-commit-msg hook, 2011-02-14) tried to
make "git commit" and "git merge" consistent, because a merge that
required user assistance has to be concluded with "git commit", but
back then only "git commit" triggered prepare-commit-msg hook.

When it added a call to run the prepare-commit-msg hook, however, it
forgot to check the exit code from the hook like "git commit" does,
and ended up replacing one inconsistency with another.

When prepare-commit-msg hook that is run from "git merge" exits with
a non-zero status, abort the commit.

Junio C Hamano 9bcbb1c218 merge --no-edit: do not credit people involved in the side branch
The credit lines "By" and "Via" to credit authors and committers for
their contributions on the side branch are meant as a hint to the
integrator to decide whom to mention in the log message text.  After
the integrator saves the message in the editor, they are meant to go
away and that is why they are commented out.

When a merge is recorded without editing the generated message,
however, its contents do not go through the normal stripspace()
and these lines are left in the merge.

Stop producing them when we know the merge is going to be recorded
without editing, i.e. when --no-edit is given.

diff_setup_done() has historically returned an error code, but lost
the last nonzero return in 943d5b7 (allow diff.renamelimit to be set
regardless of -M/-C, 2006-08-09).  The callers were in a pretty
confused state: some actually checked for the return code, and some
did not.

Let it return void, and patch all callers to take this into account.
This conveniently also gets rid of a handful of different(!) error
messages that could never be triggered anyway.

Note that the function can still die().

for them to end up in things like reflogs).

When future commits add more quality checks on the identity,

Instead of waiting until we record the parents of resulting merge, reduce

The change to t7602 illustrates the essence of the effect of this change.
The octopus merge strategy used to be fed with redundant commits only to
discard them as "up-to-date", but we no longer feed such redundant commits
to it and the affected test degenerates to a regular two-head merge.

by format-patch.

For the graph-width limiting to be usable, it should happen
'automatically' once configured, hence the config option.
Nevertheless, graph width limiting only makes sense when used on a
wide terminal, so it should not influence the output of format-patch,
which adheres to the 80-column standard.

Junio C Hamano d46f476cb2 merge: do not trust fstat(2) too much when checking interactiveness
The heuristic used by "git merge" to decide if it automatically gives an
editor upon clean automerge is to see if the standard input and the
standard output is the same device and is a tty, we are in an interactive
session.  "The same device" test was done by comparing fstat(2) result on
the two file descriptors (and they must match), and we asked isatty() only
for the standard input (we insist that they are the same device and there
is no point asking tty-ness of the standard output).

The stat(2) emulation in the Windows port however does not give a usable
value in the st_ino field, so even if the standard output is connected to
something different from the standard input, "The same device" test may
incorrectly return true. To accomodate it, add another isatty() check for
the standard output stream as well.

Junio C Hamano b5c9f1c1b0 merge: do not create a signed tag merge under --ff-only option
Starting at release v1.7.9, if you ask to merge a signed tag, "git merge"
always creates a merge commit, even when the tag points at a commit that
happens to be a descendant of your current commit.

Unfortunately, this interacts rather badly for people who use --ff-only to
make sure that their branch is free of local developments. It used to be
possible to say:

	$ git checkout -b frotz v1.7.9~30
        $ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9

and expect that the resulting tip of frotz branch matches v1.7.9^0 (aka
the commit tagged as v1.7.9), but this fails with the updated Git with:

	fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting.

because a merge that merges v1.7.9 tag to v1.7.9~30 cannot be created by
fast forwarding.

We could teach users that now they have to do

	$ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9^0

but it is far more pleasant for users if we DWIMmed this ourselves.

When an integrator pulls in a topic from a lieutenant via a signed tag,
even when the work done by the lieutenant happens to fast-forward, the
integrator wants to have a merge record, so the integrator will not be
asking for --ff-only when running "git pull" in such a case. Therefore,
this change should not regress the support for the use case v1.7.9 wanted
to add.

Thomas Rast f26af3fcbc merge: add instructions to the commit message when editing
Before f824628 (merge: use editor by default in interactive sessions,
2012-01-10), git-merge only started an editor if the user explicitly
asked for it with --edit.  Thus it seemed unlikely that the user would
need extra guidance.

After f824628 the _normal_ thing is to start an editor.  Give at least
an indication of why we are doing it.

The sentence about justification is one of the few things about
standard git that are not agnostic to the workflow that the user
chose.  However, f824628 was proposed by Linus specifically to
discourage users from merging unrelated upstream progress into topic
branches.  So we may as well take another step in the same direction.

Junio C Hamano f8246281af merge: use editor by default in interactive sessions
Traditionally, a cleanly resolved merge was committed by "git merge" using
the auto-generated merge commit log message without invoking the editor.

After 5 years of use in the field, it turns out that people perform too
many unjustified merges of the upstream history into their topic branches.
These merges are not just useless, but they are often not explained well,
and making the end result unreadable when it gets time for merging their
history back to their upstream.

Earlier we added the "--edit" option to the command, so that people can
edit the log message to explain and justify their merge commits. Let's
take it one step further and spawn the editor by default when we are in an
interactive session (i.e. the standard input and the standard output are
pointing at the same tty device).

There may be existing scripts that leave the standard input and the
standard output of the "git merge" connected to whatever environment the
scripts were started, and such invocation might trigger the above
"interactive session" heuristics.  GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT environment variable
can be set to "no" at the beginning of such scripts to use the historical
behaviour while the script runs.

Note that this backward compatibility is meant only for scripts, and we
deliberately do *not* support "merge.edit = yes/no/auto" configuration
option to allow people to keep the historical behaviour.

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer. Callers that
use this value longer than a couple of statements should copy the
value to avoid some hidden resolve_ref() call that may change the

The bug found by Tony Wang <wwwjfy@gmail.com> in builtin/merge.c
demonstrates this. The first call is in cmd_merge()

branch = resolve_ref("HEAD", head_sha1, 0, &flag);

Then deep in lookup_commit_or_die() a few lines after, resolve_ref()
may be called again and destroy "branch".

lookup_commit_or_die
 lookup_commit_reference
  lookup_commit_reference_gently
   parse_object
    lookup_replace_object
     do_lookup_replace_object
      prepare_replace_object
       for_each_replace_ref
        do_for_each_ref
         get_loose_refs
          get_ref_dir
           get_ref_dir
            resolve_ref

All call sites are checked and made sure that xstrdup() is called if
the value should be saved.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy c1d7036b6b checkout,merge: disallow overwriting ignored files with --no-overwrite-ignore
Ignored files usually are generated files (e.g. .o files) and can be
safely discarded. However sometimes users may have important files in
working directory, but still want a clean "git status", so they mark
them as ignored files. But in this case, these files should not be
overwritten without asking first.

Enable this use case with --no-overwrite-ignore, where git only sees
tracked and untracked files, no ignored files. Those who mix
discardable ignored files with important ones may have to sort it out
themselves.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy fc001b526c checkout,merge: loosen overwriting untracked file check based on info/exclude
Back in 1127148 (Loosen "working file will be lost" check in
Porcelain-ish - 2006-12-04), git-checkout.sh learned to quietly
overwrite ignored files. Howver the code only took .gitignore files
into account.

Standard ignored files include all specified in .gitignore files in
working directory _and_ $GIT_DIR/info/exclude. This patch makes sure
ignored files in info/exclude can also be overwritten automatically in
the spirit of the original patch.

Vincent van Ravesteijn 5480207c4e Show error for 'git merge' with unset merge.defaultToUpstream
'git merge' can be called without any arguments if merge.defaultToUpstream
is set. However, when merge.defaultToUpstream is not set, the user will be
presented the usage information as if he entered a command with a wrong
syntaxis. Ironically, the usage information confirms that no arguments are
mandatory.

This adds a proper error message telling the user why the command failed. As
a side-effect this can help the user in discovering the possibility to merge
with the upstream branch by setting merge.defaultToUpstream.

Jonathan Nieder 418c9b176c do not let git_path clobber errno when reporting errors
Because git_path() calls vsnprintf(), code like

	fd = open(git_path("SQUASH_MSG"), O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0666);
	die_errno(_("Could not write to '%s'"), git_path("SQUASH_MSG"));

can end up printing an error indicator from vsnprintf() instead of
open() by mistake.  Store the path we are trying to write to in a
temporary variable and pass _that_ to die_errno(), so the messages
written by git cherry-pick/revert and git merge can avoid this source
of confusion.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy c689332391 Convert many resolve_ref() calls to read_ref*() and ref_exists()
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not
safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens,
the buffer may be changed.  Many call sites though do not care about
this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not.

Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref()
calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on
to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

Junio C Hamano ba3c69a9ee commit: teach --gpg-sign option
This uses the gpg-interface.[ch] to allow signing the commit, i.e.

    $ git commit --gpg-sign -m foo
    You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
    user: "Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>"
    4096-bit RSA key, ID 96AFE6CB, created 2011-10-03 (main key ID 713660A7)

    [master 8457d13] foo
     1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)

The lines of GPG detached signature are placed in a new multi-line header
field, instead of tucking the signature block at the end of the commit log
message text (similar to how signed tag is done), for multiple reasons:

 - The signature won't clutter output from "git log" and friends if it is
   in the extra header. If we place it at the end of the log message, we
   would need to teach "git log" and friends to strip the signature block
   with an option.

 - Teaching new versions of "git log" and "gitk" to optionally verify and
   show signatures is cleaner if we structurally know where the signature
   block is (instead of scanning in the commit log message).

 - The signature needs to be stripped upon various commit rewriting
   operations, e.g. rebase, filter-branch, etc. They all already ignore
   unknown headers, but if we place signature in the log message, all of
   these tools (and third-party tools) also need to learn how a signature
   block would look like.

 - When we added the optional encoding header, all the tools (both in tree
   and third-party) that acts on the raw commit object should have been
   fixed to ignore headers they do not understand, so it is not like that
   new header would be more likely to break than extra text in the commit.

A commit made with the above sample sequence would look like this:

    $ git cat-file commit HEAD
    tree 3cd71d90e3db4136e5260ab54599791c4f883b9d

Junio C Hamano fab47d0575 merge: force edit and no-ff mode when merging a tag object
Now that we allow pulling a tag from the remote site to validate the
authenticity, we should give the user the final chance to verify and edit
the merge message. The integrator is expected to leave a meaningful merge
commit log in the history. Disallow fast-forwarding in such a case to
ensure that a merge commit is always recorded.

Junio C Hamano ae8e4c9ce1 merge: make usage of commit->util more extensible
The merge-recursive code uses the commit->util field directly to annotate
the commit objects given from the command line, i.e. the remote heads to
be merged, with a single string to be used to describe it in its trace
messages and conflict markers.

Correct this short-signtedness by redefining the field to be a pointer to
a structure "struct merge_remote_desc" that later enhancements can add
more information. Store the original objects we were told to merge in a
field "obj" in this struct, so that we can recover the tag we were told to
merge.

Jay Soffian 66f4b98ad9 Teach merge the '[-e|--edit]' option
Implemented internally instead of as "git merge --no-commit && git commit"
so that "merge --edit" is otherwise consistent (hooks, etc) with "merge".

Note: the edit message does not include the status information that one
gets with "commit --status" and it is cleaned up after editing like one
gets with "commit --cleanup=default". A later patch could add the status
information if desired.

Note: previously we were not calling stripspace() after running the
prepare-commit-msg hook. Now we are, stripping comments and
leading/trailing whitespace lines if --edit is given, otherwise only
stripping leading/trailing whitespace lines if not given --edit.
