Our documentation claims we support curl versions back to 7.19.5. But we
can no longer compile with that version since adding an unconditional
use of CURLOPT_RESOLVE in 511cfd3bff (http: add custom hostname to IP
address resolutions, 2022-05-16). That feature wasn't added to libcurl
until 7.21.3.
We could add #ifdefs to make this work back to 7.19.5. But given that
nobody noticed the compilation failure in the intervening two years, it
makes more sense to bump the version in the documentation to 7.21.3
(which is itself over 13 years old).
We could perhaps go forward even more (which would let us drop some
cruft from git-curl-compat.h), but this should be an obviously safe
jump, and we can move forward later.
Note that user-visible syntax for CURLOPT_RESOLVE has grown new features
in subsequent curl versions. Our documentation mentions "+" and "-"
entries, which require more recent versions than 7.21.3. We could
perhaps clarify that in our docs, but it's probably not worth cluttering
them with restrictions of ancient curl versions.

In get_active_slot(), we return a CURL handle that may have been used
before (reusing them is good because it lets curl reuse the same
connection across many requests). We set a few curl options back to
defaults that may have been modified by previous requests.
We reset POSTFIELDS to NULL, but do not reset POSTFIELDSIZE (which
defaults to "-1"). This usually doesn't matter because most POSTs will
set both fields together anyway. But there is one exception: when
handling a large request in remote-curl's post_rpc(), we don't set
_either_, and instead set a READFUNCTION to stream data into libcurl.
This can interact weirdly with a stale POSTFIELDSIZE setting, because
curl will assume it should read only some set number of bytes from our
READFUNCTION. However, it has worked in practice because we also
manually set a "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" header, which libcurl uses
as a clue to set the POSTFIELDSIZE to -1 itself.
So everything works, but we're better off resetting the size manually
for a few reasons:
- there was a regression in curl 8.7.0 where the chunked header
detection didn't kick in, causing any large HTTP requests made by
Git to fail. This has since been fixed (but not yet released). In
the issue, curl folks recommended setting it explicitly to -1:
https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/13229#issuecomment-2029826058
and it indeed works around the regression. So even though it won't
be strictly necessary after the fix there, this will help folks who
end up using the affected libcurl versions.
- it's consistent with what a new curl handle would look like. Since
get_active_slot() may or may not return a used handle, this reduces
the possibility of heisenbugs that only appear with certain request
patterns.
Note that the recommendation in the curl issue is to actually drop the
manual Transfer-Encoding header. Modern libcurl will add the header
itself when streaming from a READFUNCTION. However, that code wasn't
added until 802aa5ae2 (HTTP: use chunked Transfer-Encoding for HTTP_POST
if size unknown, 2019-07-22), which is in curl 7.66.0. We claim to
support back to 7.19.5, so those older versions still need the manual
header.

nfsnprintf() wraps vsnprintf(3) and reports attempts to use too small a
buffer using BUG(), just like xsnprintf().
It has an extra check that makes sure the buffer size (converted to int)
is positive. vsnprintf(3) is supposed to handle a buffer size of zero
or bigger than INT_MAX just fine, so this extra comparison doesn't make
us any safer. If a platform has a broken implementation, we'd need to
work around it in our compat code.
Call xsnprintf() instead to reduce code duplication and make the caller

since 5747c8072b (contrib/credential: avoid fixed-size buffer in

When constructing a new pack `git multi-pack-index repack` provides a
list of objects which is the union of objects in all MIDX'd packs which
were "included" in the repack.
Though correct, this typically yields a poorly structured pack, since
providing the objects list over stdin does not give pack-objects a
chance to discover the namehash values for each object, leading to
sub-optimal delta selection.
We can use `--stdin-packs` instead, which has a couple of benefits:
- it does a supplemental walk over objects in the supplied list of
packs to discover their namehash, leading to higher-quality delta
selection
- it requires us to list far less data over stdin; instead of listing
each object in the resulting pack, we need only list the
constituent packs from which those objects were selected in the MIDX
Of course, this comes at a slight cost: though we save time on listing
packs versus objects over stdin[^1] (around ~650 milliseconds), we add a
non-trivial amount of time walking over the given objects in order to
find better deltas.
In general, this is likely to more closely match the user's expectations
(i.e. that packs generated via `git multi-pack-index repack` are written
with high-quality deltas). But if not, we can always introduce a new
option in pack-objects to disable the supplemental object walk, which
would yield a pure CPU-time savings, at the cost of the on-disk size of
the resulting pack.
[^1]: In a patched version of Git that doesn't perform the supplemental
object walk in `pack-objects --stdin-packs`, we save around ~650ms
(from 5.968 to 5.325 seconds) when running `git multi-pack-index
repack --batch-size=0` on git.git with all objects packed, and all
packs in a MIDX.

In both fill_included_packs_all() and fill_included_packs_batch(), we
accumulate a list of packs whose contents we want to repack together,
and then use that information to feed a list of objects as input to
pack-objects.
In both cases, the `fill_included_packs_` functions keep track of how
many packs they want to repack together, and only execute pack-objects
if there are at least two packs that need repacking.
Having both of these functions keep track of this information themselves
is not strictly necessary, since they also log which packs to repack via
the `include_pack` array, so we can simply count the non-zero entries in
that array after either function is done executing, reducing the overall
amount of code necessary.

When performing a 'git multi-pack-index repack', the MIDX machinery
tries to aggregate MIDX'd packs together either to (a) fill the given
`--batch-size` argument, or (b) combine all packs together.
In either case (using the `midx-write.c::fill_included_packs_batch()` or
`midx-write.c::fill_included_packs_all()` function, respectively), we
evaluate whether or not we want to repack each MIDX'd pack, according to
whether or it is loadable, kept, cruft, or non-empty.
Between the two `fill_included_packs_` callers, they both care about the
same conditions, except for `fill_included_packs_batch()` which also
cares that the pack is non-empty.
We could extract two functions (say, `want_included_pack()` and a
`_nonempty()` variant), but this is not necessary. For the case in
`fill_included_packs_all()` which does not check the pack size, we add
all of the pack's objects assuming that the pack meets all other
criteria. But if the pack is empty in the first place, we add all of its
zero objects, so whether or not we "accept" or "reject" it in the first
place is irrelevant.
This change improves the readability in both `fill_included_packs_`
functions.

When environment variable GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER is set, `git
maintenance` invokes the command specified as the variable's value
rather than invoking the actual underlying platform-specific scheduler
management command. By setting GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER to some suitable
value, test authors can therefore validate behavior of "destructive"
`git maintenance` commands without having to worry about clobbering the
user's own local scheduler configuration.
In order to protect an absent-minded test author from forgetting to set
GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER in the local test script (and thus clobbering
his or her own scheduler configuration), t/test-lib.sh assigns an
"immediately error-out" value to GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER by default
which should ensure that the problem will be caught and reported before
any damage can be done to the configuration of the person running the
tests.
Unfortunately, however, t/test-lib.sh neglects to export
GIT_TEST_MAINT_SCHEDULER, which renders the default "error-out"
assignment worthless. Fix this by exporting the variable as
originally intended.

Since b3b18d1621 (advice: revamp advise API, 2020-03-02), we can use
advise_if_enabled() to display an advice. This API encapsulates three
actions:
1.- checking the visibility of the advice
2.- displaying the advice when appropriate
3.- displaying instructions on how to disable the advice, when
appropriate
The code we have in builtin/add.c to display the ADVICE_ADD_IGNORED_FILE
advice, is doing these three things. However, the instructions
displayed on how to disable the hint are not shown in the normalized way
that advise_if_enabled() introduced. This may cause distraction.
There is no reason not to use the new API here. On the contrary, by
using it we gain simplicity in the code and avoid possible distractions.
For these reasons, use the newer advise_if_enabled() machinery to show
the ADVICE_ADD_IGNORED_FILE advice, and don't bother checking the

if you detach from a branch that is behind its upstream, e.g.,

official way to detach HEAD at the commit before that commit) and
"git checkout origin/master^0" from showing tracking information,
but still do show the tracking information for the current branch

"--detach" broke this subtley. The new rule should have been
If --quiet is given, do not bother with tracking info.

Even though the ultimate purpose of "git apply" is to apply a patch
and to update the filesystem entities, this particular test is
mainly about parsing a patch on a funny pathname correctly, and even
on a system that is incapable of checking out the resulting state
correctly on its filesystem, at least the parsing can and should work
fine. Rewrite the test to work inside the index without touching the
filesystem.

* jk/drop-hg-to-git:
contrib: drop hg-to-git script
The status.showUntrackedFiles configuration variable had a name
that tempts users to set a Boolean value expressed in our usual
"false", "off", and "0", but it only took "no". This has been
corrected so "true" and its synonyms are taken as "normal", while
"false" and its synonyms are taken as "no".
* jc/show-untracked-false:
status: allow --untracked=false and friends
status: unify parsing of --untracked= and status.showUntrackedFiles
"git diff" and friends learned two extra configuration variables,
diff.srcPrefix and diff.dstPrefix.
* ph/diff-src-dst-prefix-config:
diff.*Prefix: use camelCase in the doc and test titles
diff: add diff.srcPrefix and diff.dstPrefix configuration variables
