Junio C Hamano e52e6f79cc Merge branch 'nd/pretty-formats'
pretty-printing body of the commit that is stored in non UTF-8
encoding did not work well.  The early part of this series fixes
it.  And then it adds %C(auto) specifier that turns the coloring on
when we are emitting to the terminal, and adds column-aligning
format directives.

* nd/pretty-formats:
  pretty: support %>> that steal trailing spaces
  pretty: support truncating in %>, %< and %><
  pretty: support padding placeholders, %< %> and %><
  pretty: add %C(auto) for auto-coloring
  pretty: split color parsing into a separate function
  pretty: two phase conversion for non utf-8 commits

  utf8.c: add utf8_strnwidth() with the ability to skip ansi sequences
  utf8.c: move display_mode_esc_sequence_len() for use by other functions
  pretty: share code between format_decoration and show_decorations
  pretty-formats.txt: wrap long lines

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 5a10d23658 pretty: save commit encoding from logmsg_reencode if the caller needs it
The commit encoding is parsed by logmsg_reencode, there's no need for
the caller to re-parse it again. The reencoded message now has the new
encoding, not the original one. The caller would need to read commit
object again before parsing.

Thomas Rast 70d26c6e76 read_revisions_from_stdin: make copies for handle_revision_arg
read_revisions_from_stdin() has passed pointers to its read buffer
down to handle_revision_arg() since its inception way back in 42cabc3
(Teach rev-list an option to read revs from the standard input.,
2006-09-05).  Even back then, this was a bug: through
add_pending_object, the argument was recorded in the object_array's
'name' field.

Fix it by making a copy whenever read_revisions_from_stdin() passes an
argument down the callchain.  The other caller runs handle_revision_arg()
on argv[], where it would be redundant to make a copy.

Kacper Kornet c19d1b4e84 Fix revision walk for commits with the same dates
Logic in still_interesting function allows to stop the commits
traversing if the oldest processed commit is not older then the
youngest commit on the list to process and the list contains only
commits marked as not interesting ones. It can be premature when dealing
with a set of coequal commits. For example git rev-list A^! --not B
provides wrong answer if all commits in the range A..B had the same
commit time and there are more then 7 of them.

To fix this problem the relevant part of the logic in still_interesting
is changed to: the walk can be stopped if the oldest processed commit is
younger then the youngest commit on the list to processed.

Jeff King 04deccda11 log: re-encode commit messages before grepping
If you run "git log --grep=foo", we will run your regex on
the literal bytes of the commit message. This can provide
confusing results if the commit message is not in the same
encoding as your grep expression (or worse, you have commits
in multiple encodings, in which case your regex would need
to be written to match either encoding). On top of this, we
might also be grepping in the commit's notes, which are
already re-encoded, potentially leading to grepping in a
buffer with mixed encodings concatenated. This is insanity,
but most people never noticed, because their terminal and
their commit encodings all match.

Instead, let's massage the to-be-grepped commit into a
standardized encoding. There is not much point in adding a
flag for "this is the encoding I expect my grep pattern to
match"; the only sane choice is for it to use the log output
encoding. That is presumably what the user's terminal is
using, and it means that the patterns found by the grep will
match the output produced by git.

As a bonus, this fixes a potential segfault in commit_match
when commit->buffer is NULL, as we now build on logmsg_reencode,
which handles reading the commit buffer from disk if
necessary. The segfault can be triggered with:

        git commit -m 'text1' --allow-empty
        git commit -m 'text2' --allow-empty
        git log --graph --no-walk --grep 'text2'

which arguably does not make any sense (--graph inherently
wants a connected history, and by --no-walk the command line
is telling us to show discrete points in history without
connectivity), and we probably should forbid the
combination, but that is a separate issue.

Junio C Hamano 4b7f53da76 simplify-merges: drop merge from irrelevant side branch
The merge simplification rule stated in 6546b59 (revision traversal:
show full history with merge simplification, 2008-07-31) still
treated merge commits too specially.  Namely, in a history with this
shape:

	---o---o---M
	          /
         x---x---x

where three 'x' were on a history completely unrelated to the main
history 'o' and do not touch any of the paths we are following, we
still said that after simplifying all of the parents of M, 'x'
(which is the leftmost 'x' that rightmost 'x simplifies down to) and
'o' (which would be the last commit on the main history that touches
the paths we are following) are independent from each other, and
both need to be kept.

That is incorrect; when the side branch 'x' never touches the paths,
it should be removed to allow M to simplify down to the last commit
on the main history that touches the paths.

Junio C Hamano df874fa82e log --use-mailmap: optimize for cases without --author/--committer search
When we taught the commit_match() mechanism to pay attention to the
new --use-mailmap option, we started to unconditionally copy the
commit object to a temporary buffer, just in case we need the author
and committer lines updated via the mailmap mechanism, and rewrite
author and committer using the mailmap.

It turns out that this has a rather unpleasant performance
implications.  In the linux kernel repository, running

  $ git log --author='Junio C Hamano' --pretty=short >/dev/null

under /usr/bin/time, with and without --use-mailmap (the .mailmap
file is 118 entries long, the particular author does not appear in
it), cost (with warm cache):

  [without --use-mailmap]
  5.42user 0.26system 0:05.70elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2005936maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137669minor)pagefaults 0swaps

  [with --use-mailmap]
  6.47user 0.30system 0:06.78elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2006288maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137692minor)pagefaults 0swaps

which incurs about 20% overhead.  The command is doing extra work,
so the extra cost may be justified.

But it is inexcusable to pay the cost when we do not need
author/committer match.  In the same repository,

  $ git log --grep='fix menuconfig on debian lenny' --pretty=short >/dev/null

shows very similar numbers as the above:

  [without --use-mailmap]
  5.32user 0.30system 0:05.63elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2005984maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137672minor)pagefaults 0swaps

  [with --use-mailmap]
  6.64user 0.24system 0:06.89elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2006320maxresident)k
  0inputs+0outputs (0major+137694minor)pagefaults 0swaps

The latter case is an unnecessary performance regression.  We may
want to _show_ the result with mailmap applied, but we do not have
to copy and rewrite the author/committer of all commits we try to
match if we do not query for these fields.

Trivially optimize this performace regression by limiting the
rewrites for only when we are matching with author/committer fields.

Antoine Pelisse d72fbe8111 log: grep author/committer using mailmap
Currently you can use mailmap to display log authors and committers
but you can't use the mailmap to find commits with mapped values.

This commit allows you to run:

    git log --use-mailmap --author mapped_name_or_email
    git log --use-mailmap --committer mapped_name_or_email

Of course it only works if the --use-mailmap option is used.

The new name and email are copied only when necessary.

Junio C Hamano 727b6fc3ed log --grep: accept --basic-regexp and --perl-regexp
When we added the "--perl-regexp" option (or "-P") to "git grep", we
should have done the same for the commands in the "git log" family,
but somehow we forgot to do so.  This corrects it, but we will
reserve the short-and-sweet "-P" option for something else for now.

Also introduce the "--basic-regexp" option for completeness, so that
the "last one wins" principle can be used to defeat an earlier -E
option, e.g. "git log -E --basic-regexp --grep='<bre>'".  Note that
it cannot have the short "-G" option as the option is to grep in the
patch text in the context of "log" family.

Junio C Hamano 17bf35a3c7 grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse tree
Our "grep" allows complex boolean expressions to be formed to match
each individual line with operators like --and, '(', ')' and --not.
Introduce the "--debug" option to show the parse tree to help people
who want to debug and enhance it.

Also "log" learns "--grep-debug" option to do the same.  The command
line parser to the log family is a lot more limited than the general
"git grep" parser, but it has special handling for header matching
(e.g. "--author"), and a parse tree is valuable when working on it.

Note that "--all-match" is *not* any individual node in the parse
tree.  It is an instruction to the evaluator to check all the nodes
in the top-level backbone have matched and reject a document as
non-matching otherwise.

Martin von Zweigbergk ca92e59e30 teach log --no-walk=unsorted, which avoids sorting
When 'git log' is passed the --no-walk option, no revision walk takes
place, naturally. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, however, the provided
revisions still get sorted by commit date. So e.g 'git log --no-walk
HEAD HEAD~1' and 'git log --no-walk HEAD~1 HEAD' give the same result
(unless the two revisions share the commit date, in which case they
will retain the order given on the command line). As the commit that
introduced --no-walk (8e64006 (Teach revision machinery about
--no-walk, 2007-07-24)) points out, the sorting is intentional, to
allow things like

 git log --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline --decorate --all --no-walk

to show all refs in order by commit date.

But there are also other cases where the sorting is not wanted, such
as

 <command producing revisions in order> |
       git log --oneline --no-walk --stdin

To accomodate both cases, leave the decision of whether or not to sort
up to the caller, by allowing --no-walk={sorted,unsorted}, defaulting
to 'sorted' for backward-compatibility reasons.

Either end of revision range operator can be omitted to default to HEAD,
as in "origin.." (what did I do since I forked) or "..origin" (what did
they do since I forked).  But the current parser interprets ".."  as an
empty range "HEAD..HEAD", and worse yet, because ".." does exist on the
filesystem, we get this annoying output:

  $ cd Documentation/howto
  $ git log .. ;# give me recent commits that touch Documentation/ area.
  fatal: ambiguous argument '..': both revision and filename

Surely we could say "git log ../" or even "git log -- .." to disambiguate,
but we shouldn't have to.

Jeff King e54501004a diff: do not use null sha1 as a sentinel value
The diff code represents paths using the diff_filespec
struct. This struct has a sha1 to represent the sha1 of the
content at that path, as well as a sha1_valid member which
indicates whether its sha1 field is actually useful. If
sha1_valid is not true, then the filespec represents a
working tree file (e.g., for the no-index case, or for when
the index is not up-to-date).

The diff_filespec is only used internally, though. At the
interfaces to the diff subsystem, callers feed the sha1
directly, and we create a diff_filespec from it. It's at
that point that we look at the sha1 and decide whether it is
valid or not; callers may pass the null sha1 as a sentinel
value to indicate that it is not.

We should not typically see the null sha1 coming from any
other source (e.g., in the index itself, or from a tree).
However, a corrupt tree might have a null sha1, which would
cause "diff --patch" to accidentally diff the working tree
version of a file instead of treating it as a blob.

This patch extends the edges of the diff interface to accept
a "sha1_valid" flag whenever we accept a sha1, and to use
that flag when creating a filespec. In some cases, this
means passing the flag through several layers, making the
code change larger than would be desirable.

One alternative would be to simply die() upon seeing
corrupted trees with null sha1s. However, this fix more
directly addresses the problem (while bogus sha1s in a tree
are probably a bad thing, it is really the sentinel
confusion sending us down the wrong code path that is what
makes it devastating). And it means that git is more capable
of examining and debugging these corrupted trees. For
example, you can still "diff --raw" such a tree to find out
when the bogus entry was introduced; you just cannot do a
"--patch" diff (just as you could not with any other
corrupted tree, as we do not have any content to diff).

Jeff King b72a1904ae revision: avoid work after --max-count is reached
During a revision traversal in which --max-count has been
specified, we decrement a counter for each revision returned
by get_revision. When it hits 0, we typically return NULL
(the exception being if we still have boundary commits to
show).

However, before we check the counter, we call get_revision_1
to get the next commit. This might involve looking at a
large number of commits if we have restricted the traversal
(e.g., we might traverse until we find the next commit whose
diff actually matches a pathspec).

There's no need to make this get_revision_1 call when our
counter runs out. If we are not in --boundary mode, we will
just throw away the result and immediately return NULL. If
we are in --boundary mode, then we will still throw away the
result, and then start showing the boundary commits.
However, as git_revision_1 does not impact the boundary
list, it should not have an impact.

In most cases, avoiding this work will not be especially
noticeable. However, in some cases, it can make a big
difference:

  [before]
  $ time git rev-list -1 origin Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.11.2.txt
  8d141a1d56

  real    0m0.301s
  user    0m0.280s
  sys     0m0.016s

  [after]
  $ time git rev-list -1 origin Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.11.2.txt
  8d141a1d56

  real    0m0.010s
  user    0m0.008s
  sys     0m0.000s

Note that the output is produced almost instantaneously in
the first case, and then git uselessly spends a long time
looking for the next commit to touch that file (but there
isn't one, and we traverse all the way down to the roots).

Add a field to setup_revision_opt structure and allow these callers

it encounters are meant to name committish.

Many callers know that the user meant to name a committish by
syntactical positions where the object name appears.  Calling this
function allows the machinery to disambiguate shorter-than-unique
abbreviated object names between committish and others.

Note that this does NOT error out when the named object is not a
committish. It is merely to give a hint to the disambiguation
machinery.
