The git-over-rsync protocol is inefficient and broken, and
has been for a long time. It transfers way more objects than
it needs (grabbing all of the remote's "objects/",
regardless of which objects we need). It does its own ad-hoc
parsing of loose and packed refs from the remote, but
doesn't properly override packed refs with loose ones,
leading to garbage results (e.g., expecting the other side
to have an object pointed to by a stale packed-refs entry,
or complaining that the other side has two copies of the
refs[1]).
This latter breakage means that nobody could have
successfully pulled from a moderately active repository
since cd547b4 (fetch/push: readd rsync support, 2007-10-01).
We never made an official deprecation notice in the release
notes for git's rsync protocol, but the tutorial has marked
it as such since 914328a (Update tutorial., 2005-08-30).
And on the mailing list as far back as Oct 2005, we can find
Junio mentioning it as having "been deprecated for quite
some time."[2,3,4]. So it was old news then; cogito had
deprecated the transport in July of 2005[5] (though it did
come back briefly when Linus broke git-http-pull!).
Of course some people professed their love of rsync through
2006, but Linus clarified in his usual gentle manner[6]:
> Thanks! This is why I still use rsync, even though
> everybody and their mother tells me "Linus says rsync is
> deprecated."
No. You're using rsync because you're actively doing
something _wrong_.
The deprecation sentiment was reinforced in 2008, with a
mention that cloning via rsync is broken (with no fix)[7].
Even the commit porting rsync over to C from shell (cd547b4)
lists it as deprecated! So between the 10 years of informal
warnings, and the fact that it has been severely broken
since 2007, it's probably safe to simply remove it without
further deprecation warnings.

Once a lower-priority configuration file defines a clean or smudge
filter, there is no convenient way to override it to produce as-is
output. Even though the configuration mechanism implements "the
last one wins" semantics, you cannot set them to an empty string and
expect them to work, as apply_filter() would try to run the empty
string as an external command and fail. The conversion is not done,
but the function would still report a failure to convert.
Even though resetting the variable to "cat" (i.e. pass the data back
as-is and report success) is an obvious and a viable way to solve
this, it is wasteful to spawn an external process just as a
workaround.
Instead, teach apply_filter() to treat an empty string as a no-op
filter that always returns successfully its input as-is without
conversion.

In Git for Windows' SDK, the tests are run using a Bash that relies on
the POSIX emulation layer MSYS2 (itself a friendly fork of Cygwin). As
such, paths in tests can be POSIX paths. As soon as those paths are
passed to git.exe (which does *not* use the POSIX emulation layer),
those paths are converted into Windows paths, though. This happens
for command-line parameters, but not when reading, say, config variables.
To help with that, the `pwd` command is overridden to return the Windows
path of the current working directory when testing Git on Windows.
However, when talking to anything using the POSIX emulation layer, it is
really much better to use POSIX paths because Windows paths contain a
colon after the drive letter that will easily be mistaken for the common
separator in path lists.
So let's just use the $PWD variable when the POSIX path is needed.

The only code that cares about the value of the global variable
saved_env_before_alias after the previous fix is handle_builtin()
that turns into a glorified no-op when the variable is true, so the
logic could safely be lifted to its caller, i.e. the caller can
refrain from calling it when the variable is set.
This variable tells us if save_env_before_alias() was called (with
or without matching restore_env()), but the sole caller of the
function, handle_alias(), always calls it as the first thing, so we
can consider that the variable essentially keeps track of the fact
that handle_alias() has ever been called.
It turns out that handle_builtin() and handle_alias() are called
only from one function in a way that the value of the variable
matters, which is run_argv(), and it already keeps track of the
fact that it already called handle_alias().
So we can simplify the whole thing by:
- Change handle_builtin() to always make a direct call to the
builtin implementation it finds, and make sure the caller
refrains from calling it if handle_alias() has ever been
called;
- Remove saved_env_before_alias variable, and instead use the
local "done_alias" variable maintained inside run_argv() to
make the same decision.

When help.autocorrect is in effect, an attempt to auto-execute an
uniquely corrected result of a misspelt alias will result in an
irrelevant error message. The codepath that causes this calls
save_env_before_alias() and restore_env() in handle_alias(), and
that happens twice. A global variable orig_cwd is allocated to hold
the return value of getcwd() in save_env_before_alias(), which is
then used in restore_env() to go back to that directory and finally
free(3)'d there.
However, save_env_before_alias() is not prepared to be called twice.
It returns early when it knows it has already been called, leaving
orig_cwd undefined, which is then checked in the second call to
restore_env(), and by that time, the memory that used to hold the
contents of orig_cwd is either freed or reused to hold something
else, and this is fed to chdir(2), causing it to fail. Even if it
did not fail (i.e. reading of the already free'd piece of memory
yielded a directory path that we can chdir(2) to), it then gets
free(3)'d.
Fix this by making sure save_env() does do the saving when called.
While at it, add a minimal test for help.autocorrect facility.

MSYS2 (the POSIX emulation layer used by Git for Windows' Bash) actually
has a working mkfifo. The only problem is that it is only emulating
named pipes through the MSYS2 runtime; The Win32 API has no idea about
named pipes, hence the Git executable cannot access those pipes either.
The symptom is that Git fails with a '<name>: No such file or directory'
because MSYS2 emulates named pipes through special-crafted '.lnk' files.
The solution is to tell the test suite explicitly that we cannot use
named pipes when we want to test on Windows.

On Windows, there are no POSIX paths, only Windows ones (an absolute
Windows path looks like "C:\Program Files\Git\ReleaseNotes.html", under
most circumstances, forward slashes are also allowed and synonymous to
backslashes).
So when a POSIX shell (such as MSYS2's Bash, which is used by Git for
Windows to execute all those shell scripts that are part of Git) passes
a POSIX path to test-path-utils.exe (which is not POSIX-aware), the path
is translated into a Windows path. For example, /etc/profile becomes
C:/Program Files/Git/etc/profile.
This path translation poses a problem when passing the root directory as
parameter to test-path-utils.exe, as it is not well defined whether the
translated root directory should end in a slash or not. MSys1 stripped
the trailing slash, but MSYS2 does not.
Originally, the Git for Windows project patched MSYS2's runtime to
accomodate Git's regression test, but we really should do it the other
way round.
To work with both of MSys1's and MSYS2's behaviors, we simply test what
the current system does in the beginning of t0060-path-utils.sh and then
adjust the expected longest ancestor length accordingly.
It looks quite a bit tricky what we actually do in this patch: first, we
adjust the expected length for the trailing slash we did not originally
expect (subtracting one). So far, so good.
But now comes the part where things work in a surprising way: when the
expected length was 0, the prefix to match is the root directory. If the
root directory is converted into a path with a trailing slash, however,
we know that the logic in longest_ancestor_length() cannot match: to
avoid partial matches of the last directory component, it verifies that
the character after the matching prefix is a slash (but because the
slash was part of the matching prefix, the next character cannot be a
slash). So the return value is -1. Alas, this is exactly what the
expected length is after subtracting the value of $rootslash! So we skip
adding the $rootoff value in that case (and only in that case).
Directories other than the root directory are handled fine (as they are
specified without a trailing slash, something not possible for the root
directory, and MSYS2 converts them into Windows paths that also lack
trailing slashes), therefore we do not need any more special handling.

When we know that mtime on directory as given by the environment
is usable for the purpose of untracked cache, we may want the
untracked cache to be always used without any mtime test or
kernel name check being performed.
Also when we know that mtime is not usable for the purpose of
untracked cache, for example because the repo is shared over a
network file system, we may want the untracked-cache to be
automatically removed from the index.
Allow the user to express such preference by setting the
'core.untrackedCache' configuration variable, which can take
'keep', 'false', or 'true' and default to 'keep'.
When read_index_from() is called, it now adds or removes the
untracked cache in the index to respect the value of this
variable. So it does nothing if the value is `keep` or if the
variable is unset; it adds the untracked cache if the value is
`true`; and it removes the cache if the value is `false`.
`git update-index --[no-|force-]untracked-cache` still adds the
untracked cache to, or removes it, from the index, but this
shows a warning if it goes against the value of
core.untrackedCache, because the next time the index is read
the untracked cache will be added or removed if the
configuration is set to do so.
Also `--untracked-cache` used to check that the underlying
operating system and file system change `st_mtime` field of a
directory if files are added or deleted in that directory. But
because those tests take a long time, `--untracked-cache` no
longer performs them. Instead, there is now
`--test-untracked-cache` to perform the tests. This change
makes `--untracked-cache` the same as `--force-untracked-cache`.
This last change is backward incompatible and should be
mentioned in the release notes.

When merging files with CR/LF line endings, the conflict markers should
match those, lest the output file has mixed line endings.
This is particularly of interest on Windows, where some editors get
*really* confused by mixed line endings.
The original version of this patch by Beat Bolli respected core.eol, and
a subsequent improvement by this developer also respected gitattributes.
This approach was suboptimal, though: `git merge-file` was invented as a
drop-in replacement for GNU merge and as such has no problem operating
outside of any repository at all!
Another problem with the original approach was pointed out by Junio
Hamano: legacy repositories might have their text files committed using
CR/LF line endings (and core.eol and the gitattributes would give us a
false impression there). Therefore, the much superior approach is to
simply match the context's line endings, if any.
We actually do not have to look at the *entire* context at all: if the
files are all LF-only, or if they all have CR/LF line endings, it is
sufficient to look at just a *single* line to match that style. And if
the line endings are mixed anyway, it is *still* okay to imitate just a
single line's eol: we will just add to the pile of mixed line endings,
and there is nothing we can do about that.
So what we do is: we look at the line preceding the conflict, falling
back to the line preceding that in case it was the last line and had no
line ending, falling back to the first line, first in the first
post-image, then the second post-image, and finally the pre-image.
If we find consistent CR/LF (or undecided) end-of-line style, we match
that, otherwise we use LF-only line endings for the conflict markers.
Note that while it is true that there have to be at least two lines we
can look at (otherwise there would be no conflict), the same is not true
for line *endings*: the three files in question could all consist of a
single line without any line ending, each. In this case we fall back to
using LF-only.

When shell scripts access a $TMPDIR variable containing backslashes,
they will be mistaken for escape characters. Let's not let that happen
by converting them to forward slashes.

On Windows, absolute paths never start with a slash, unless a POSIX
emulation layer is used. The latter is the case for MSYS2's Perl that
Git for Windows leverages. However, in the tests we also go through
plain `git.exe`, which does *not* leverage the POSIX emulation layer,
and therefore the paths we pass to Perl may actually be DOS-style paths
such as C:/Program Files/Git.
So let's just use Perl's own way to test whether a given path is
absolute or not instead of home-brewing our own.
This patch partially fixes t7800 and t9700 when running in Git for
Windows' SDK.

It does not quite work because it produces DOS line endings which the
shell does not like at all.
This lets t0200-gettext-basic.sh, t0204-gettext-reencode-sanity.sh,
t3406-rebase-message.sh, t3903-stash.sh, t7400-submodule-basic.sh,
t7401-submodule-summary.sh, t7406-submodule-update.sh and
t7407-submodule-foreach.sh pass in Git for Windows' SDK.

This solves two problems:
- we now have proper localisation even on Windows
- we sidestep the infamous "BUG: your vsnprintf is broken (returned -1)"
message when running "git init" (which otherwise prevents the entire
test suite from running) because libintl.h overrides vsnprintf() with
libintl_vsnprintf() [*1*]
The latter issue is rather crucial, as *no* test passes in Git for
Windows without this fix.

Since b7cc53e9 (tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs, 2015-07-11),
git-tag has started showing tags with ambiguous names (i.e.,
when both "heads/foo" and "tags/foo" exists) as "tags/foo"
instead of just "foo". This is both:
- pointless; the output of "git tag" includes only
refs/tags, so we know that "foo" means the one in
"refs/tags".
and
- ambiguous; in the original output, we know that the line
"foo" means that "refs/tags/foo" exists. In the new
output, it is unclear whether we mean "refs/tags/foo" or
"refs/tags/tags/foo".
The reason this happens is that commit b7cc53e9 switched
git-tag to use ref-filter's "%(refname:short)" output
formatting, which was adapted from for-each-ref. This more
general code does not know that we care only about tags, and
uses shorten_unambiguous_ref to get the short-name. We need
to tell it that we care only about "refs/tags/", and it
should shorten with respect to that value.
In theory, the ref-filter code could figure this out by us
passing FILTER_REFS_TAGS. But there are two complications
there:
1. The handling of refname:short is deep in formatting
code that does not even have our ref_filter struct, let
alone the arguments to the filter_ref struct.
2. In git v2.7.0, we expose the formatting language to the
user. If we follow this path, it will mean that
"%(refname:short)" behaves differently for "tag" versus
"for-each-ref" (including "for-each-ref refs/tags/"),
which can lead to confusion.
Instead, let's add a new modifier to the formatting
language, "strip", to remove a specific set of prefix
components. This fixes "git tag", and lets users invoke the
same behavior from their own custom formats (for "tag" or
"for-each-ref") while leaving ":short" with its same
consistent meaning in all places.
We introduce a test in t7004 for "git tag", which fails
without this patch. We also add a similar test in t3203 for
"git branch", which does not actually fail. But since it is
likely that "branch" will eventually use the same formatting
code, the test helps defend against future regressions.

Currently, the only way to pass proxy credentials to curl is by including them
in the proxy URL. Usually, this means they will end up on disk unencrypted, one
way or another (by inclusion in ~/.gitconfig, shell profile or history). Since
proxy authentication often uses a domain user, credentials can be security
sensitive; therefore, a safer way of passing credentials is desirable.
If the configured proxy contains a username but not a password, query the
credential API for one. Also, make sure we approve/reject proxy credentials
properly.
For consistency reasons, add parsing of http_proxy/https_proxy/all_proxy
environment variables, which would otherwise be evaluated as a fallback by curl.
Without this, we would have different semantics for git configuration and
environment variables.

CURLAUTH_ANY does not work with proxies which answer unauthenticated requests
with a 307 redirect to an error page instead of a 407 listing supported
authentication methods. Therefore, allow the authentication method to be set
using the environment variable GIT_HTTP_PROXY_AUTHMETHOD or configuration
variables http.proxyAuthmethod and remote.<name>.proxyAuthmethod (in analogy
to http.proxy and remote.<name>.proxy).
The following values are supported:
* anyauth (default)
* basic
* digest
* negotiate
* ntlm
