One of the really nice features of the ~/.gitconfig file is that users
can override defaults by their own preferred settings for all of their
repositories.
One such default that some users like to override is whether the
"origin" remote gets auto-pruned or not. The user would simply call
git config --global remote.origin.prune true
and from now on all "origin" remotes would be pruned automatically when
fetching into the local repository.
There is just one catch: now Git thinks that the "origin" remote is
configured, even if the repository config has no [remote "origin"]
section at all, as it does not realize that the "prune" setting was
configured globally and that there really is no "origin" remote
configured in this repository.
That is a problem e.g. when renaming a remote to a new name, when Git
may be fooled into thinking that there is already a remote of that new
name.
Let's fix this by paying more attention to *where* the remote settings
came from: if they are configured in the local repository config, we
must not overwrite them. If they were configured elsewhere, we cannot
overwrite them to begin with, as we only write the repository config.
There is only one caller of remote_is_configured() (in `git fetch`) that
may want to take remotes into account even if they were configured
outside the repository config; all other callers essentially try to
prevent the Git command from overwriting settings in the repository
config.
To accommodate that fact, the remote_is_configured() function now
requires a parameter that states whether the caller is interested in all
remotes, or only in those that were configured in the repository config.
Many thanks to Jeff King whose tireless review helped with settling for
nothing less than the current strategy.

If there is no upstream information for a branch, it is likely that it
is newly created and can safely be pushed under the normal fast-forward
rules. Relax the --force-with-lease check so that we do not reject
these branches immediately but rather attempt to push them as new
branches, using the null SHA-1 as the expected value.
In fact, it is already possible to push new branches using the explicit
--force-with-lease=<branch>:<expect> syntax, so all we do here is make
this behaviour the default if no explicit "expect" value is specified.

The remote_is_configured() function allows checking whether a remote

called before calling it. In addition, it only checks the configuration
for remotes, but not remotes or branches files.
Make use of the origin member of struct remote instead, which indicates
where the remote comes from. It will be set to some value if the remote
is configured in any file in the repository, but is initialized to 0 if
the remote is only created in make_remote().

In a triangular workflow, the place you pull from and the
place you push to may be different. As we have
branch_get_upstream for the former, this patch adds
branch_get_push for the latter (and as the former implements
@{upstream}, so will this implement @{push} in a future
patch).
Note that the memory-handling for the return value bears
some explanation. Some code paths require allocating a new
string, and some let us return an existing string. We should
provide a consistent interface to the caller, so it knows
whether to free the result or not.
We could do so by xstrdup-ing any existing strings, and
having the caller always free. But that makes us
inconsistent with branch_get_upstream, so we would prefer to
simply take ownership of the resulting string. We do so by
storing it inside the "struct branch", just as we do with
the upstream refname (in that case we compute it when the
branch is created, but there's no reason not to just fill
it in lazily in this case).

After calling stat_tracking_info, callers often want to
print the name of the upstream branch (in addition to the
tracking count). To do this, they have to access
branch->merge->dst[0] themselves. This is not wrong, as the
return value from stat_tracking_info tells us whether we
have an upstream branch or not. But it is a bit leaky, as we
make an assumption about how it calculated the upstream
name.
Instead, let's add an out-parameter that lets the caller
know the upstream name we found.
As a bonus, we can get rid of the unusual tri-state return
from the function. We no longer need to use it to
differentiate between "no tracking config" and "tracking ref
does not exist" (since you can check the upstream_name for
that), so we can just use the usual 0/-1 convention for
success/error.

Let's teach the helper to optionally report these specific

When remote.c loads its config, it records the
branch.*.pushremote for the current branch along with the
global remote.pushDefault value, and then binds them into a
single value: the default push for the current branch. We
then pass this value (which may be NULL) to remote_get_1
when looking up a remote for push.
This has a few downsides:
1. It's confusing. The early-binding of the "current
value" led to bugs like the one fixed by 98b406f
(remote: handle pushremote config in any order,
2014-02-24). And the fact that pushremotes fall back to
ordinary remotes is not explicit at all; it happens
because remote_get_1 cannot tell the difference between
"we are not asking for the push remote" and "there is
no push remote configured".
2. It throws away intermediate data. After read_config()
finishes, we have no idea what the value of
remote.pushDefault was, because the string has been
overwritten by the current branch's
branch.*.pushremote.
3. It doesn't record other data. We don't note the
branch.*.pushremote value for anything but the current
branch.
Let's make this more like the fetch-remote config. We'll
record the pushremote for each branch, and then explicitly
compute the correct remote for the current branch at the
time of reading.

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.

This adds support to send-pack to negotiate and use atomic pushes
iff the server supports it. Atomic pushes are activated by a new command
line flag --atomic.
In order to do this we also need to change the semantics for send_pack()
slightly. The existing send_pack() function actually doesn't send all the
refs back to the server when multiple refs are involved, for example
when using --all. Several of the failure modes for pushes can already be
detected locally in the send_pack client based on the information from the
initial server side list of all the refs as generated by receive-pack.
Any such refs that we thus know would fail to push are thus pruned from
the list of refs we send to the server to update.
For atomic pushes, we have to deal thus with both failures that are detected
locally as well as failures that are reported back from the server. In order
to do so we treat all local failures as push failures too.
We introduce a new status code REF_STATUS_ATOMIC_PUSH_FAILED so we can
flag all refs that we would normally have tried to push to the server
but we did not due to local failures. This is to improve the error message
back to the end user to flag that "these refs failed to update since the
atomic push operation failed."

Remotes are stored as an array, so looking one up or adding one without
duplication is an O(n) operation. Reading an entire config file full of
remotes is O(n^2) in the number of remotes. For a repository with tens of
thousands of remotes, the running time can hit multiple minutes.
Hash tables are way faster. So we add a hashmap from remote name to
struct remote and use it for all lookups. The time to add a new remote to
a repo that already has 50,000 remotes drops from ~2 minutes to < 1
second.
We retain the old array of remotes so iterators proceed in config-file

nothing at step 7, "ours" is full at the next fetch and we may need to
walk through commits for reachability test. Room for improvement.

Since f2690487 (fetch: opportunistically update tracking refs,
2013-05-11), we stopped taking a non-storing refspec given on the
command line of "git fetch" literally, and instead started mapping
it via remote.$name.fetch refspecs. This allows
$ git fetch origin master
from the 'origin' repository, which is configured with
[remote "origin"]
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
to update refs/remotes/origin/master with the result, as if the
command line were
$ git fetch origin +master:refs/remotes/origin/master
to reduce surprises and improve usability. Before that change, a
refspec on the command line without a colon was only to fetch the
history and leave the result in FETCH_HEAD, without updating the
remote-tracking branches.
When you are simulating a fetch from you by your mothership with a
push by you into your mothership, instead of having:
[remote "satellite"]
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/*
on the mothership repository and running:
mothership$ git fetch satellite
you would have:
[remote "mothership"]
push = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/*
on your satellite machine, and run:
satellite$ git push mothership
Because we so far did not make the corresponding change to the push
side, this command:
satellite$ git push mothership master
does _not_ allow you on the satellite to only push 'master' out but
still to the usual destination (i.e. refs/remotes/satellite/master).
Implement the logic to map an unqualified refspec given on the
command line via the remote.$name.push refspec. This will bring a
bit more symmetry between "fetch" and "push".

Allow a safer "rewind of the remote tip" push than blind "--force",

the new history to replace it was prepared.
The machinery is more or less ready. The "--force" option is again
the big red button to override any safety, thanks to J6t's sanity
(the original round allowed --lockref to defeat --force).
The logic to choose the default implemented here is fragile
(e.g. "git fetch" after seeing a failure will update the
remote-tracking branch and will make the next "push" pass,
defeating the safety pretty easily). It is suitable only for the
simplest workflows, and it may hurt users more than it helps them.

apply_push_cas(), which is called after match_push_refs() has

At this point, we know which remote we are talking to, and what
remote refs we are going to update, so we can fill in the details
that may have been missing from the command line, such as
(1) what abbreviated refname the user gave us matches the actual
refname at the remote; and
(2) which remote-tracking branch in our local repository to read
the value of the object to expect at the remote.
to populate the old_sha1_expect[] field of each of the remote ref.

Update "git push" and "git send-pack" to parse this commnd line
option.
The intended sematics is:
* "--force-with-lease" alone, without specifying the details, will
protect _all_ remote refs that are going to be updated by
requiring their current value to be the same as some reasonable
default, unless otherwise specified;
* "--force-with-lease=refname", without specifying the expected
value, will protect that refname, if it is going to be updated,
by requiring its current value to be the same as some reasonable
default.
* "--force-with-lease=refname:value" will protect that refname, if
it is going to be updated, by requiring its current value to be
the same as the specified value; and
* "--no-force-with-lease" will cancel all the previous --force-with-lease on the
command line.
For now, "some reasonable default" is tentatively defined as "the
value of the remote-tracking branch we have for the ref of the
remote being updated", and it is an error if we do not have such a
remote-tracking branch. But this is known to be fragile, its use is
not yet recommended, and hopefully we will find more reasonable
default as we gain experience with this feature. The manual marks
the feature as experimental unless the expected value is specified
explicitly for this reason.
Because the command line options are parsed _before_ we know which
remote we are pushing to, there needs further processing to the
parsed data after we instantiate the transport object to:
* expand "refname" given by the user to a full refname to be
matched with the list of "struct ref" used in match_push_refs()
and set_ref_status_for_push(); and
* learning the actual local ref that is the remote-tracking branch
for the specified remote ref.
Further, some processing need to be deferred until we find the set
of remote refs and match_push_refs() returns in order to find the
ones that need to be checked after explicit ones have been processed
for "--force-with-lease" (no specific details).
These post-processing will be the topic of the next patch.
This option was originally called "cas" (for "compare and swap"),
the name which nobody liked because it was too technical. The
second attempt called it "lockref" (because it is conceptually like
pushing after taking a lock) but the word "lock" was hated because
it implied that it may reject push by others, which is not the way
this option works. This round calls it "force-with-lease". You
assume you took the lease on the ref when you fetched to decide what
the rebased history should be, and you can push back only if the
lease has not been broken.

"fetch.prune" and "remote.<name>.prune":
- "fetch.prune" allows to enable prune for all fetch operations.
- "remote.<name>.prune" allows to change the behaviour per remote.
The latter will naturally override the former, and the --[no-]prune
option from the command line will override the configured default.
Since --prune is a potentially destructive operation (Git doesn't
keep reflogs for deleted references yet), we don't want to prune
without users consent, so this configuration will not be on by
default.

The definition of "struct ref" in "cache.h", a header file so
central to the system, always confused me. This structure is not
about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects.
It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs
the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object
transfer succeeds to what values. It belongs to "remote.h" together
with "struct refspec".
While we are at it, also move the types and functions related to the
Git transport connection to a new header file connect.h

Currently, do_push() in push.c calls remote_get(), which gets the
configured remote for fetching and pushing. Replace this call with a
call to pushremote_get() instead, a new function that will return the
remote configured specifically for pushing. This function tries to
work with the string pushremote_name, before falling back to the
codepath of remote_get(). This patch has no visible impact, but
serves to enable future patches to introduce configuration variables
to set pushremote_name. For example, you can now do the following in
handle_config():
if (!strcmp(key, "remote.pushdefault"))
git_config_string(&pushremote_name, key, value);
Then, pushes will automatically go to the remote specified by
remote.pushdefault.

The new option "--follow-tags" tells "git push" to push annotated
tags that are missing from the other side and that can be reached by
the history that is otherwise pushed out.
For example, if you are using the "simple", "current", or "upstream"
push, you would ordinarily push the history leading to the commit at
your current HEAD and nothing else. With this option, you would
also push all annotated tags that can be reached from that commit to
the other side.

Teach "git fetch" to accept an exact SHA-1 object name the user may
obtain out of band on the LHS of a pathspec, and send it on a "want"
message when the server side advertises the allow-tip-sha1-in-want
capability.

Since we store lists of refs as linked lists, we can use
llist_mergesort to efficiently sort them.

When pushing groups of refs to a remote, there is no simple way to remove
old refs that still exist at the remote that is no longer updated from us.
This will allow us to remove such refs from the remote.
With this change, running this command
$ git push --prune remote refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/laptop/*
removes refs/remotes/laptop/foo from the remote if we do not have branch
"foo" locally anymore.

* cn/fetch-prune:
fetch: treat --tags like refs/tags/*:refs/tags/* when pruning
fetch: honor the user-provided refspecs when pruning refs
remote: separate out the remote_find_tracking logic into query_refspecs
t5510: add tests for fetch --prune
fetch: free all the additional refspecs
Conflicts:
remote.c
If the user gave us refspecs on the command line, we should use those
when deciding whether to prune a ref instead of relying on the
refspecs in the config.
Previously, running
git fetch --prune origin refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
would delete every other ref under the origin namespace because we
were using the refspec to filter the available refs but using the
configured refspec to figure out if a ref had been deleted on the
remote. This is clearly the wrong thing to do.
Change prune_refs and get_stale_heads to simply accept a list of
references and a list of refspecs. The caller of either function needs
to decide what refspecs should be used to decide whether a ref is
stale.
