64da3ae5c1 checkout -m: do not try to fall back to --merge from an unborn branch
If switching from an unborn branch (= empty tree) to a valid commit failed
without -m, it would fail with -m option as well.

49d833dc07 Revert "checkout branch: prime cache-tree fully"
The logic in 83ae209 (checkout branch: prime cache-tree fully,
2009-04-20) is bogus; checkout can switch branches with a dirty
index and in such a case the tree won't match HEAD.

Add t2014-switch to catch this breakage.

83ae209bf9 checkout branch: prime cache-tree fully
When switching to another branch, the earlier code relied on incremental
invalidation of cache-tree entries to degrade it.  While it is not wrong
per-se, we know that the resulting index must fully match the branch we
are switching to unless the -m (merge) option is used.

We should simply fully re-prime the cache-tree using the new tree object
in such a case.  And for safety, invalidate the cache-tree as a whole in
other cases.

ae98a0089f Move run_hook() from builtin-commit.c into run-command.c (libgit)
A function that runs a hook is used in several Git commands.
builtin-commit.c has the one that is most general for cases without
piping. The one in builtin-gc.c prints some useful warnings.
This patch moves a merged version of these variants into libgit and
lets the other builtins use this libified run_hook().

The run_hook() function used in receive-pack.c feeds the standard
input of the pre-receive or post-receive hooks. This function is
renamed to run_receive_hook() because the libified run_hook() cannot
handle this.

2292ce4785 checkout: don't crash on file checkout before running post-checkout hook
In the case of

	git init
	echo exit >.git/hooks/post-checkout
	chmod +x .git/hooks/post-checkout
	touch foo
	git add foo
	rm foo
	git checkout -- foo

git-checkout resulted in a Segmentation fault, because there is no new
branch set for the post-checkout hook.

This patch makes use of the null SHA as it is set for the old branch.

While at it, I removed the xstrdup() around the sha1_to_hex(...) calls
in builtin-checkout.c/post_checkout_hook() because sha1_to_hex()
uses four buffers for the hex-dumped SHA and we only need two.
(Duplicating one buffer is only needed if we need more than four.)

3442ea4a75 git checkout: do not allow switching to a tree-ish that is not a commit
"git checkout -b newbranch $commit^{tree}" mistakenly created a new branch
rooted at the current HEAD, because in that case, the two structure fields
used to see if the command was invoked without any argument (hence it
needs to default to checking out the HEAD) were populated incorrectly.

Upon seeing a command line argument that we took as a rev, we should store
that string in new.name, even if that does not name a commit.  This will
correctly trigger the existing safety logic.

I think it's unnecessary to warn that the checkout has been forced due to an
unborn current branch if -f has been explicitly passed.  For one project, I am
using git-new-workdir to create workdirs from a bare repository whose HEAD is

fa7b3c2f75 checkout: Fix "initial checkout" detection
Earlier commit 5521883 (checkout: do not lose staged removal, 2008-09-07)
tightened the rule to prevent switching branches from losing local
changes, so that staged removal of paths can be protected, while
attempting to keep a loophole to still allow a special case of switching
out of an un-checked-out state.

However, the loophole was made a bit too tight, and did not allow
switching from one branch (in an un-checked-out state) to check out
another branch.

The change to builtin-checkout.c in this commit loosens it to allow this,
by not insisting the original commit and the new commit to be the same.

It also introduces a new function, is_index_unborn (and an associated
macro, is_cache_unborn), to check if the repository is truly in an
un-checked-out state more reliably, by making sure that $GIT_INDEX_FILE
did not exist when populating the in-core index structure.  A few places
the earlier commit 5521883 added the check for the initial checkout
condition are updated to use this function.

5521883490 checkout: do not lose staged removal
The logic to checkout a different commit implements the safety to never
lose user's local changes.  For example, switching from a commit to
another commit, when you have changed a path that is different between
them, need to merge your changes to the version from the switched-to
commit, which you may not necessarily be able to resolve easily.  By
default, "git checkout" refused to switch branches, to give you a chance
to stash your local changes (or use "-m" to merge, accepting the risks of
getting conflicts).

This safety, however, had one deliberate hole since early June 2005.  When
your local change was to remove a path (and optionally to stage that
removal), the command checked out the path from the switched-to commit
nevertheless.

This was to allow an initial checkout to happen smoothly (e.g. an initial
checkout is done by starting with an empty index and switching from the
commit at the HEAD to the same commit).  We can tighten the rule slightly
to allow this special case to pass, without losing sight of removal
explicitly done by the user, by noticing if the index is truly empty when
the operation begins.

For historical background, see:

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/4641/focus=4646

This case is marked as *0* in the message, which both Linus and I said "it
feels somewhat wrong but otherwise we cannot start from an empty index".

bea005e21b checkout: fix message when leaving detached HEAD
The shell version of git checkout would print:

  Previous HEAD position was 1234abcd... commit subject line

when leaving a detached HEAD for another commit. Ths C
version attempted to implement this, but got the condition
wrong such that the behavior never triggered.

This patch simplifies the conditions for showing the message
to the ones used by the shell version: any time we are
leaving a detached HEAD and the new and old commits are not
the same (this suppresses it for the "git checkout -b new"
case recommended when you enter the detached state).

eac5a40151 checkout --conflict=<style>: recreate merge in a non-default style
This new option does essentially the same thing as -m option when checking
unmerged paths out of the index, but it uses the specified style instead
of configured merge.conflictstyle.

Setting "merge.conflictstyle" to "diff3" is usually less useful than using
the default "merge" style, because the latter allows a conflict that
results by both sides changing the same region in a very similar way to
get simplified substancially by reducing the common lines.  However, when
one side removed a group of lines (perhaps a function was moved to some
other file) while the other side modified it, the default "merge" style
does not give any clue as to why the hunk is left conflicting.  You would
need the original to understand what is going on.

The recommended use would be not to set merge.conflictstyle variable so
that you would usually use the default "merge" style conflict, and when
the result in a path in a particular merge is too hard to understand, use
"git checkout --conflict=diff3 $path" to check it out with the original to
review what is going on.

now have the following possibilities:

 * Without any option, an attempt to checkout an unmerged path
   will atomically fail (i.e. no other cleanly-merged paths are
   checked out either);

 * With "-f", other cleanly-merged paths are checked out, and
   unmerged paths are ignored;

 * With "--ours" or "--theirs, the contents from the specified
   stage is checked out;

 * With "-m" (we should add "--merge" as synonym), the 3-way merge
   is recreated from the staged object names and checked out.

38901a4837 checkout --ours/--theirs: allow checking out one side of a conflicting merge
This lets you to check out 'our' (or 'their') version of an

db9410990e checkout -f: allow ignoring unmerged paths when checking out of the index
Earlier we made "git checkout $pathspec" to atomically refuse
the operation of $pathspec matched any path with unmerged
stages.  This patch allows:

    $ git checkout -f a b c

to ignore, instead of error out on, such unmerged paths.  The
fix to prevent checkout of an unmerged path from random stages
is still there.

8fdcf31254 checkout: do not check out unmerged higher stages randomly
During a conflicted merge when you have unmerged stages for a
path F in the index, if you said:

    $ git checkout F

we rewrote F as many times as we have stages for it, and the
last one (typically "theirs") was left in the work tree, without
resolving the conflict.

This fixes it by noticing that a specified pathspec pattern
matches an unmerged path, and by erroring out.
