In v1.7.7-rc0~3^2 (2011-08-19), git mergetool's "meld" support learned
to use the --output option when calling versions of meld that are
detected to support it (1.5.0 and newer, hopefully).
Alas, it misdetects old versions (before 1.1.5, 2006-06-11) of meld as
supporting the option, so on systems with such meld, instead of
getting a nice merge helper, the operator gets a dialog box with the
text "Wrong number of arguments (Got 5)". (Version 1.1.5 is when meld
switched to using optparse. One consequence of that change was that
errors in usage are detected and signalled through the exit status
even when --help was passed.)
Luckily there is a simpler check that is more reliable: the usage
string printed by "meld --help" reliably reflects whether --output is
supported in a given version. Use it.

"git tag -n" did not check the type of the object it is reading the top n
lines from. At least, avoid showing the beginning of trees and blobs when
dealing with lightweight tags that point at them.
As the payload of a tag and a commit look similar in that they both start
with a header block, which is skipped for the purpose of "-n" output,
followed by human readable text, allow the message of commit objects to be
shown just like the contents of tag objects. This avoids regression for
people who have been using "tag -n" to show the log messages of commits
that are pointed at by lightweight tags.

Originally, "git add -N" was introduced to help users from forgetting to
add new files to the index before they ran "git commit -a". As an attempt
to help them further so that they do not forget to say "-a", "git commit"
to commit the index as-is was taught to error out, reminding the user that
they may have forgotten to add the final contents of the paths before
running the command.
This turned out to be a false "safety" that is useless. If the user made
changes to already tracked paths and paths added with "git add -N", and
then ran "git add" to register the final contents of the paths added with
"git add -N", "git commit" will happily create a commit out of the index,
without including the local changes made to the already tracked paths. It
was not a useful "safety" measure to prevent "forgetful" mistakes from
happening.
It turns out that this behaviour is not just a useless false "safety", but
actively hurts use cases of "git add -N" that were discovered later and
have become popular, namely, to tell Git to be aware of these paths added
by "git add -N", so that commands like "git status" and "git diff" would
include them in their output, even though the user is not interested in
including them in the next commit they are going to make.
Fix this ancient UI mistake, and instead make a commit from the index
ignoring the paths added by "git add -N" without adding real contents.
Based on the work by Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy, and helped by injection of
sanity from Jonathan Nieder and others on the Git mailing list.

When the userdiff_config function was introduced in be58e70
(diff: unify external diff and funcname parsing code,
2008-10-05), it used a return value convention unlike any
other config callback. Like other callbacks, it used "-1" to
signal error. But it returned "1" to indicate that it found
something, and "0" otherwise; other callbacks simply
returned "0" to indicate that no error occurred.
This distinction was necessary at the time, because the
userdiff namespace overlapped slightly with the color
configuration namespace. So "diff.color.foo" could mean "the
'foo' slot of diff coloring" or "the 'foo' component of the
"color" userdiff driver". Because the color-parsing code
would die on an unknown color slot, we needed the userdiff
code to indicate that it had matched the variable, letting
us bypass the color-parsing code entirely.
Later, in 8b8e862 (ignore unknown color configuration,
2009-12-12), the color-parsing code learned to silently
ignore unknown slots. This means we no longer need to
protect userdiff-matched variables from reaching the
color-parsing code.
We can therefore change the userdiff_config calling
convention to a more normal one. This drops some code from
each caller, which is nice. But more importantly, it reduces
the cognitive load for readers who may wonder why
userdiff_config is unlike every other config callback.
There's no need to add a new test confirming that this
works; t4020 already contains a test that sets
diff.color.external.

When the HEAD of the submodule matches what is recorded in the index of
the superproject, and it has local changes or untracked files, the patch
offered by "git add -e" for editing shows a diff like this:
diff --git a/submodule b/submodule
<header>
-deadbeef...
+deadbeef...-dirty
Because applying such a patch has no effect to the index, this is a
useless noise. Generate the patch with IGNORE_DIRTY_SUBMODULES flag to
prevent such a change from getting reported.
This patch also loses the "-dirty" suffix from the output when the HEAD of
the submodule is different from what is in the index of the superproject.
As such dirtiness expressed by the suffix does not affect the result of
the patch application at all, there is no information lost if we remove
it. The user could still run "git status" before "git add -e" if s/he
cares about the dirtiness.

When listing commands in zsh (git <TAB><TAB>), all of them will show up,
instead of only porcelain ones.
The root cause of this is because zsh versions from 4.3.0 to present
(4.3.15) do not correctly propagate the SH_WORD_SPLIT option into the
subshell in ${foo:=$(bar)} expressions. Because of this bug, the list of
all commands was treated as a single word in __git_list_porcelain_commands
and did not match any of the patterns that would usually cause plumbing to
be excluded.
With problematic versions of zsh, after running
emulate sh
fn () {
var='one two'
for v in $var; do echo $v; done
}
x=$(fn)
: ${y=$(fn)}
printing "$x" results in two lines as expected, but printing "$y" results
in a single line because $var is expanded as a single word when evaluating
fn to compute y.
So avoid the construct, and use an explicit 'test -n "$foo" || foo=$(bar)'
instead.

The callers of map_user() give email and name to it, and expect to get the
up-to-date email and/or name to be used in their output. The function
rewrites the given buffers in place. To optimize the majority of cases,
the function returns 0 when it did not do anything, and it returns 1 when
the caller should use the updated contents.
The 'email' input to the function is terminated by '>' or a NUL (whichever
comes first) for historical reasons, but when a rewrite happens, the value
is replaced with the mailbox inside the <> pair. However, it failed to
meet this expectation when it only rewrote the name part without rewriting
the email part, and the email in the input was terminated by '>'.
This causes an extra '>' to appear in the output of "blame -e", because the
caller does send in '>'-terminated email, and when the function returned 1
to tell it that rewriting happened, it appends '>' that is necessary when
the email part was rewritten.
The patch looks bigger than it actually is, because this change makes a
variable that points at the end of the email part in the input 'p' live
much longer than it used to, deserving a more descriptive name.

loose object file complains with the error message
fatal: failed to read object <sha1>: Invalid argument
This comes from a failure of mmap on this empty file, which sets errno to
EINVAL. Instead of calling xmmap on empty file, we display a clean error
message ourselves, and return a NULL pointer. The new message is
error: object file .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1> is empty
fatal: loose object <sha1> (stored in .git/objects/09/<rest-of-sha1>) is corrupt

We don't usually bother looking at tagged objects at all
when listing. However, if "-n" is specified, we open the
objects to read the annotations of the tags. If we fail to
read an object, or if the object has zero length, we simply
silently return.
The first case is an indication of a broken or corrupt repo,
and we should notify the user of the error.
The second case is OK to silently ignore; however, the
existing code leaked the buffer returned by read_sha1_file.

When "git tag" is instructed to print lines from annotated
tags via "-n", it first prints the tag name, then attempts
to parse and print the lines of the tag object, and then
finally adds a trailing newline.
If an error occurs, we return early from the function and
never print the newline, screwing up the output for the next
tag. Let's factor the line-printing into its own function so
we can manage the early returns better, and make sure that
we always terminate the line.

There was a number of problems I ran into when trying the
profile-directed optimizations added by Andi Kleen in git commit
7ddc2710b9. (This was using gcc 4.4 found on many enterprise
distros.)
1) The -fprofile-generate and -fprofile-use commands are incompatible
with ccache; the code ends up looking in the wrong place for the gcda
files based on the ccache object names.
2) If the makefile notices that CFLAGS are different, it will rebuild
all of the binaries. Hence the recipe originally specified by the
INSTALL file ("make profile-all" followed by "make install") doesn't
work. It will appear to work, but the binaries will end up getting
built with no optimization.
This patch fixes this by using an explicit set of options passed via
the PROFILE variable then using this to directly manipulate CFLAGS and
EXTLIBS.
The developer can run "make PROFILE=BUILD all ; sudo make
PROFILE=BUILD install" automatically run a two-pass build with the
test suite run in between as the sample workload for the purpose of
recording profiling information to do the profile-directed
optimization.
Alternatively, the profiling version of binaries can be built using:
make PROFILE=GEN PROFILE_DIR=/var/cache/profile all
make PROFILE=GEN install
and then after git has been used for a while, the optimized version of
the binary can be built as follows:
make PROFILE=USE PROFILE_DIR=/var/cache/profile all
make PROFILE=USE install
