Tests for "git am --[no-]scissors" [1] work in the following way:
1. Create files with commit messages
2. Use these files to create expected commits
3. Generate eml file with patch from expected commits
4. Create commits using git am with these eml files
5. Compare these commits with expected
The test for "git am --scissors" is supposed to take an e-mail with a
scissors line and in-body "Subject:" header and demonstrate that the
subject line from the e-mail itself is overridden by the in-body header
and that only text below the scissors line is included in the commit
message of the commit created by the invocation of "git am --scissors".
However, the setup of the test incorrectly uses a commit without the
scissors line and without the in-body header in the commit message,
producing eml file not suitable for testing of "git am --scissors".
This can be checked by intentionally breaking is_scissors_line function
in mailinfo.c, for example, by changing string ">8", which is used by
the test. With such change the test should fail, but does not.
Fix broken test by generating eml file with scissors line and in-body
header "Subject:". Since the two tests for --scissors and --no-scissors
options are there to test cutting or keeping the commit message, update
both tests to change the test file in the same way, which allows us to
generate only one eml file to be passed to git am. To clarify the
intention of the test, give files and tags more explicit names.

If there was no 'Signed-off-by:' trailer but another trailer such as
'Reported-by:' then 'git am --signoff' would add a blank line between
the existing trailers and the added 'Signed-off-by:' line. e.g.
Rebase accepts '--rerere-autoupdate' as an option but only honors

An empty line should stop any pending in-body headers, and start the
actual body parsing.
This also modifies the original test for the in-body headers to actually
have a real commit body that starts with spaces, and changes the test to
check that the long line matches _exactly_, and doesn't get extra data
from the body.

Mailinfo currently handles multi-line headers, but it does not handle
multi-line in-body headers. Teach it to handle such headers, for
example, for this input:
From: author <author@example.com>
Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2006 00:44:16 -0700
Subject: a very long
broken line
Subject: another very long
broken line
interpret the in-body subject to be "another very long broken line"
instead of "another very long".

Recent "git am" had regression when adding a Signed-off-by line
with its "-s" option by an unintended tightening of how an existing
trailer block is detected.
* jc/builtin-am-signoff-regression-fix:
am: match --signoff to the original scripted version
Linus noticed that the recently reimplemented "git am -s" defines
the trailer block too rigidly, resulting in an unnecessary blank
line between the existing sign-offs and his new sign-off. An e-mail
submission sent to Linus in real life ends with mixture of sign-offs
and commentaries, e.g.
title here
message here
Signed-off-by: Original Author <original@auth.or>
[rv: tweaked frotz and nitfol]
Signed-off-by: Re Viewer <rv@ew.er>
Signed-off-by: Other Reviewer <other@rev.ewer>
---
patch here
Because the reimplementation reused append_signoff() helper that is
used by other codepaths, which is unaware that people intermix such
comments with their sign-offs in the trailer block, such a message
was judged to end with a non-trailer, resulting in an extra blank
line before adding a new sign-off.
The original scripted version of "git am" used a lot looser
definition, i.e. "if and only if there is no line that begins with
Signed-off-by:, add a blank line before adding a new sign-off". For
the upcoming release, stop using the append_signoff() in "git am"
and reimplement the looser definition used by the scripted version
to use only in "git am" to fix this regression in "am" while
avoiding new regressions to other users of append_signoff().
In the longer term, we should look into loosening append_signoff()
so that other codepaths that add a new sign-off behave the same way
as "git am -s", but that is a task for post-release.

There's a bug in builtin/am.c in which we take a lock on
MERGE_RR recursively. But rather than fix am.c, this patch
fixes the confusing interface from rerere.c that caused the
bug. Read on for the gory details.
The setup_rerere() function both reads the existing MERGE_RR
file, and takes MERGE_RR.lock. In the rerere() and
rerere_forget() functions, we end up in write_rr(), which
will then commit the lock file.
But for functions like rerere_clear() that do not write to
MERGE_RR, we expect the caller to have handled
setup_rerere(). That caller would then need to release the
lockfile, but it can't; the lock struct is local to
rerere.c.
For builtin/rerere.c, this is OK. We run a single rerere
operation and then exit immediately, which has the side
effect of rolling back the lockfile.
But in builtin/am.c, this is actively wrong. If we run "git
am -3 --skip", we call setup-rerere twice without releasing
the lock:
1. The "--skip" causes us to call am_rerere_clear(), which
calls setup_rerere(), but never drops the lock.
2. We then proceed to the next patch.
3. The "--3way" may cause us to call rerere() to handle
conflicts in that patch, but we are already holding the
lock. The lockfile code dies with:
BUG: prepare_tempfile_object called for active object
We could fix this by having rerere_clear() call
rollback_lock_file(). But it feels a bit odd for it to roll
back a lockfile that it did not itself take. So let's
simplify the interface further, and handle setup_rerere in
the function itself, taking away the question from the
caller over whether they need to do so.
We can give rerere_gc() the same treatment, as well (even
though it doesn't have any callers besides builtin/rerere.c
at this point). Note that these functions don't take flags
from their callers to pass along to setup_rerere; that's OK,
because the flags would not be meaningful for what they are
doing.
Both of those functions need to hold the lock because even
though they do not write to MERGE_RR, they are still writing
and should be protected from a simultaneous "rerere" run.
But rerere_remaining(), "rerere diff", and "rerere status"
are all read-only operations. They want to setup_rerere(),
but do not care about taking the lock in the first place.
Since our update of MERGE_RR is the usual atomic rename done
by commit_lock_file, they can just do a lockless read. For
that, we teach setup_rerere a READONLY flag to avoid the
lock.
As a bonus, this pushes builtin/rerere.c's setup_rerere call
closer to the functions that use it. Which means that "git
rerere totally-bogus-command" will no longer silently
exit(0) in a repository without rerere enabled.

An example of the line in a mercurial patch that specifies the date of
the commit would be:
# Date 1433753301 25200
where the first number is the number of seconds since the unix epoch (in
UTC), and the second number is the offset of the timezone, in second s
west of UTC (negative if the timezone is east of UTC).
git-am uses localtime() to break down the first number into its
components (year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds etc.). However,
the returned components are relative to the user's time zone. As a
result, if the user's time zone does not match the time zone specified
in the patch, the resulting commit will have the wrong author date.
Fix this by using gmtime() instead, which uses UTC instead of the user's
time zone.

The following bug has been observed:
$ git am # no input file
^C
$ git am --abort
Resolve operation not in progress, we are not resuming.
This happens because the following test fails:
test -d "$dotest" && test -f "$dotest/last" && test -f "$dotest/next"
and the codepath for an "am in-progress" is not executed. It falls back
to the codepath that treats this as a "fresh execution". Before
rr/rebase-autostash, this condition was
test -d "$dotest"
It would incorrectly execute the "normal" am --abort codepath:
git read-tree --reset -u HEAD ORIG_HEAD
git reset ORIG_HEAD
by incorrectly assuming that an am is "in progress" (i.e. ORIG_HEAD
etc. was written during the previous execution).
Notice that
$ git am
^C
executes nothing of significance, is equivalent to
$ mkdir .git/rebase-apply
Therefore, the correct solution is to treat .git/rebase-apply as a
"stray directory" and remove it on --abort in the fresh-execution
codepath. Also ensure that we're not called with --rebasing from
git-rebase--am.sh; in that case, it is the responsibility of the caller
to handle and stray directories.
While at it, tell the user to run "git am --abort" to get rid of the
stray $dotest directory, if she attempts anything else.

Originally update-pre-post-images could assume that any whitespace
fixing will make the result only shorter by unexpanding runs of
leading SPs into HTs and removing trailing whitespaces at the end of
lines. Updating the post-image we read from the patch to match the
actual result can be performed in-place under this assumption.
These days, however, we have tab-in-indent (aka Python) rule whose
result can be longer than the original, and we do need to allocate
a larger buffer than the input and replace the result.
Fortunately the support for lengthening rewrite was already added
when we began supporting "match while ignoring whitespace
differences" mode in 86c91f9179 (git apply: option to ignore
whitespace differences, 2009-08-04). We only need to correctly
count the number of bytes necessary to hold the updated result and

involves creating a file there was none before.

But as a futureproofing measure, it is still best to avoid the problem
and clean up at the start of each test. In particular, this
simplifies the process of adding new tests that are known to fail.

Place setup commands in test_expect_success blocks. This makes the
rare event of the setup commands breaking on some platform easier to
diagnose, and more importantly, it visually distinguishes where
each test begins and ends.
Instead of running test -z against the result of "git diff" command
substitution, use "git diff --exit-code", to improve output when
running with the "-v" option.
Use test_cmp in place of "test $(foo) = $(bar)" for similar reasons.
Remove whitespace after the > and < redirection operators for
consistency with other tests.
The order of arguments to test_cmp is "test_cmp expected actual".
