12e0437f23 common-main: call restore_sigpipe_to_default()
This is another safety/sanity setup that should be in force
everywhere, but which we only applied in git.c. This did
catch most cases, since even external commands are typically
run via "git ..." (and the restoration applies to
sub-processes, too). But there were cases we missed, such as
somebody calling git-upload-pack directly via ssh, or
scripts which use dashed external commands directly.

57f5d52a94 common-main: call sanitize_stdfds()
This is setup that should be done in every program for
safety, but we never got around to adding it everywhere (so
builtins benefited from the call in git.c, but any external
commands did not). Putting it in the common main() gives us
this safety everywhere.

Note that the case in daemon.c is a little funny. We wait
until we know whether we want to daemonize, and then either:

 - call daemonize(), which will close stdio and reopen it to
   /dev/null under the hood

 - sanitize_stdfds(), to fix up any odd cases

But that is way too late; the point of sanitizing is to give
us reliable descriptors on 0/1/2, and we will already have
executed code, possibly called die(), etc. The sanitizing
should be the very first thing that happens.

With this patch, git-daemon will sanitize first, and can
remove the call in the non-daemonize case. It does mean that
daemonize() may just end up closing the descriptors we
opened, but that's not a big deal (it's not wrong to do so,
nor is it really less optimal than the case where our parent
process redirected us from /dev/null ahead of time).

650c449250 common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path()
Every program which links against libgit.a must call this
function, or risk hitting an assert() in system_path() that
checks whether we have configured argv0_path (though only
when RUNTIME_PREFIX is defined, so essentially only on
Windows).

Looking at the diff, you can see that putting it into the
common main() saves us having to do it individually in each
of the external commands. But what you can't see are the
cases where we _should_ have been doing so, but weren't
(e.g., git-credential-store, and all of the t/helper test
programs).

This has been an accident-waiting-to-happen for a long time,
but wasn't triggered until recently because it involves one
of those programs actually calling system_path(). That
happened with git-credential-store in v2.8.0 with ae5f677
(lazily load core.sharedrepository, 2016-03-11). The
program:

  - takes a lock file, which...

  - opens a tempfile, which...

  - calls adjust_shared_perm to fix permissions, which...

  - lazy-loads the config (as of ae5f677), which...

  - calls system_path() to find the location of
    /etc/gitconfig

On systems with RUNTIME_PREFIX, this means credential-store
reliably hits that assert() and cannot be used.

We never noticed in the test suite, because we set
GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM there, which skips the system_path()
lookup entirely.  But if we were to tweak git_config() to
find /etc/gitconfig even when we aren't going to open it,
then the test suite shows multiple failures (for
credential-store, and for some other test helpers). I didn't
include that tweak here because it's way too specific to
this particular call to be worth carrying around what is
essentially dead code.

The implementation is fairly straightforward, with one
exception: there is exactly one caller (git.c) that actually
cares about the result of the function, and not the
side-effect of setting up argv0_path. We can accommodate
that by simply replacing the value of argv[0] in the array
we hand down to cmd_main().

3f2e2297b9 add an extra level of indirection to main()
There are certain startup tasks that we expect every git
process to do. In some cases this is just to improve the
quality of the program (e.g., setting up gettext()). In
others it is a requirement for using certain functions in
libgit.a (e.g., system_path() expects that you have called
git_extract_argv0_path()).

Most commands are builtins and are covered by the git.c
version of main(). However, there are still a few external
commands that use their own main(). Each of these has to
remember to include the correct startup sequence, and we are
not always consistent.

Rather than just fix the inconsistencies, let's make this
harder to get wrong by providing a common main() that can
run this standard startup.

We basically have two options to do this:

 - the compat/mingw.h file already does something like this by
   adding a #define that replaces the definition of main with a
   wrapper that calls mingw_startup().

   The upside is that the code in each program doesn't need
   to be changed at all; it's rewritten on the fly by the
   preprocessor.

   The downside is that it may make debugging of the startup
   sequence a bit more confusing, as the preprocessor is
   quietly inserting new code.

 - the builtin functions are all of the form cmd_foo(),
   and git.c's main() calls them.

   This is much more explicit, which may make things more
   obvious to somebody reading the code. It's also more
   flexible (because of course we have to figure out _which_
   cmd_foo() to call).

   The downside is that each of the builtins must define
   cmd_foo(), instead of just main().

This patch chooses the latter option, preferring the more
explicit approach, even though it is more invasive. We
introduce a new file common-main.c, with the "real" main. It
expects to call cmd_main() from whatever other objects it is
linked against.

We link common-main.o against anything that links against
libgit.a, since we know that such programs will need to do
this setup. Note that common-main.o can't actually go inside
libgit.a, as the linker would not pick up its main()
function automatically (it has no callers).

The rest of the patch is just adjusting all of the various
external programs (mostly in t/helper) to use cmd_main().
I've provided a global declaration for cmd_main(), which
means that all of the programs also need to match its
signature. In particular, many functions need to switch to
"const char **" instead of "char **" for argv. This effect
ripples out to a few other variables and functions, as well.

This makes the patch even more invasive, but the end result
is much better. We should be treating argv strings as const
anyway, and now all programs conform to the same signature
(which also matches the way builtins are defined).

46c3cd44d7 setup: make startup_info available everywhere
Commit a60645f (setup: remember whether repository was
found, 2010-08-05) introduced the startup_info structure,
which records some parts of the setup_git_directory()
process (notably, whether we actually found a repository or
not).

One of the uses of this data is for functions to behave
appropriately based on whether we are in a repo. But the
startup_info struct is just a pointer to storage provided by
the main program, and the only program that sets it up is
the git.c wrapper. Thus builtins have access to
startup_info, but externally linked programs do not.

Worse, library code which is accessible from both has to be
careful about accessing startup_info. This can be used to
trigger a die("BUG") via get_sha1():

	$ git fast-import <<-\EOF
	tag foo
	from HEAD:./whatever
	EOF

	fatal: BUG: startup_info struct is not initialized.

Obviously that's fairly nonsensical input to feed to
fast-import, but we should never hit a die("BUG"). And there
may be other ways to trigger it if other non-builtins
resolve sha1s.

So let's point the storage for startup_info to a static
variable in setup.c, making it available to all users of the
library code. We _could_ turn startup_info into a regular
extern struct, but doing so would mean tweaking all of the
existing use sites. So let's leave the pointer indirection
in place.  We can, however, drop any checks for NULL, as
they will always be false (and likewise, we can drop the
test covering this case, which was a rather artificial
situation using one of the test-* programs).

850d2fec53 convert manual allocations to argv_array
There are many manual argv allocations that predate the
argv_array API. Switching to that API brings a few
advantages:

  1. We no longer have to manually compute the correct final
     array size (so it's one less thing we can screw up).

  2. In many cases we had to make a separate pass to count,
     then allocate, then fill in the array. Now we can do it
     in one pass, making the code shorter and easier to
     follow.

  3. argv_array handles memory ownership for us, making it
     more obvious when things should be free()d and and when
     not.

Most of these cases are pretty straightforward. In some, we
switch from "run_command_v" to "run_command" which lets us
directly use the argv_array embedded in "struct
child_process".

441981bc85 git: simplify environment save/restore logic
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.

9d1d2b7fad git: remove an early return from save_env_before_alias()
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.

57ea7123c8 git.c: make sure we do not leak GIT_* to alias scripts
The unfortunate commit d95138e (setup: set env $GIT_WORK_TREE when
work tree is set, like $GIT_DIR - 2015-06-26) exposes another problem,
besides git-clone that's described in the previous commit. If
GIT_WORK_TREE (or even GIT_DIR) is exported to an alias script, it may
mislead git commands in the script where the repo is. Granted, most
scripts work on the repo where the alias is summoned from. But nowhere
do we forbid the script to visit another repository.

The revert of d95138e in the previous commit is sufficient as a
fix. However, to protect us from accidentally leaking GIT_*
environment variables again, we restore certain sensitive env before
calling the external script.

GIT_PREFIX is let through because there's another setup side effect
that we simply accepted so far: current working directory is
moved. Maybe in future we can introduce a new alias format that
guarantees no cwd move, then we can unexport GIT_PREFIX.

86d26f240f setup.c: re-fix d95138e (setup: set env $GIT_WORK_TREE when ..
Commit d95138e [1] attempted to fix a .git file problem by
setting GIT_WORK_TREE whenever GIT_DIR is set. It sounded harmless
because we handle GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE side by side for most
commands, with two exceptions: git-init and git-clone.

"git clone" is not happy with d95138e. This command ignores GIT_DIR
but respects GIT_WORK_TREE [2] [3] which means it used to run fine
from a hook, where GIT_DIR was set but GIT_WORK_TREE was not (*).
With d95138e, GIT_WORK_TREE is set all the time and git-clone
interprets that as "I give you order to put the worktree here",
usually against the user's intention.

The solution in d95138e is reverted earlier, and instead we reuse
the solution from c056261 [4].  It fixed another setup-messed-
up-by-alias by saving and restoring env and spawning a new process,
but for git-clone and git-init only.

Now we conclude that setup-messed-up-by-alias is always evil. So the
env restoration is done for _all_ commands, including external ones,
whenever aliases are involved. It fixes what d95138e tried to fix,
without upsetting git-clone-inside-hooks.

The test from d95138e remains to verify it's not broken by this. A new
test is added to make sure git-clone-inside-hooks remains happy.

(*) GIT_WORK_TREE was not set _most of the time_. In some cases
    GIT_WORK_TREE is set and git-clone will behave differently. The
    use of GIT_WORK_TREE to direct git-clone to put work tree
    elsewhere looks like a mistake because it causes surprises this
    way. But that's a separate story.

74703a1e4d submodule: rewrite module_list shell function in C
Most of the submodule operations work on a set of submodules.
Calculating and using this set is usually done via:

       module_list "$@" | {
           while read mode sha1 stage sm_path
           do
                # the actual operation
           done
       }

Currently the function `module_list` is implemented in the
git-submodule.sh as a shell script wrapping a perl script.
The rewrite is in C, such that it is faster and can later be
easily adapted when other functions are rewritten in C.

git-submodule.sh, similar to the builtin commands, will navigate
to the top-most directory of the repository and keep the
subdirectory as a variable. As the helper is called from
within the git-submodule.sh script, we are already navigated
to the root level, but the path arguments are still relative
to the subdirectory we were in when calling git-submodule.sh.
That's why there is a `--prefix` option pointing to an alternative
path which to anchor relative path arguments.

73c2779f42 builtin-am: implement skeletal builtin am
For the purpose of rewriting git-am.sh into a C builtin, implement a
skeletal builtin/am.c that redirects to $GIT_EXEC_PATH/git-am if the
environment variable _GIT_USE_BUILTIN_AM is not defined. Since in the
Makefile git-am.sh takes precedence over builtin/am.c,
$GIT_EXEC_PATH/git-am will contain the shell script git-am.sh, and thus
this allows us to fall back on the functional git-am.sh when running the
test suite for tests that depend on a working git-am implementation.

Since git-am.sh cannot handle any environment modifications by
setup_git_directory(), "am" is declared with no setup flags in git.c. On
the other hand, to re-implement git-am.sh in builtin/am.c, we need to
run all the git dir and work tree setup logic that git.c typically does
for us. As such, we work around this temporarily by copying the logic in
git.c's run_builtin(), which is roughly:

	prefix = setup_git_directory();
	trace_repo_setup(prefix);
	setup_work_tree();

This redirection should be removed when all the features of git-am.sh
have been re-implemented in builtin/am.c.

0ca560cb97 checkout: require worktree unconditionally
In order to allow linked worktree creation via "git checkout --to" from
a bare repository, 3473ad0 (checkout: don't require a work tree when
checking out into a new one, 2014-11-30) dropped git-checkout's
unconditional NEED_WORK_TREE requirement and instead performed worktree
setup conditionally based upon presence or absence of the --to option.
Now that --to has been retired and git-checkout is no longer responsible
for linked worktree creation, the NEED_WORK_TREE requirement can be
re-instated.

This effectively reverts 3473ad0, except for the tests it added which
now check bare repository behavior of "git worktree add" instead.

1e1ea69fa4 pull: implement skeletal builtin pull
For the purpose of rewriting git-pull.sh into a C builtin, implement a
skeletal builtin/pull.c that redirects to $GIT_EXEC_PATH/git-pull.sh if
the environment variable _GIT_USE_BUILTIN_PULL is not defined. This
allows us to fall back on the functional git-pull.sh when running the
test suite for tests that depend on a working git-pull implementation.

This redirection should be removed when all the features of git-pull.sh
have been re-implemented in builtin/pull.c.

to sq_quote_print() were replaced by calls to trace_argv_printf()

3473ad0cf6 checkout: don't require a work tree when checking out into a new one
For normal use cases, it does not make sense for 'checkout' to work on
a bare repository, without a worktree. But "checkout --to" is an
exception because it _creates_ a new worktree. Allow this option to
run on bare repositories.

People who check out from a bare repository should remember that
core.logallrefupdates is off by default and it should be turned back
on. `--to` cannot do this automatically behind the user's back because
some user may deliberately want no reflog.

For people interested in repository setup/discovery code,
is_bare_repository_cfg (aka "core.bare") is unchanged by this patch,
which means 'true' by default for bare repos. Fortunately when we get
the repo through a linked checkout, is_bare_repository_cfg is never
used. So all is still good.

7559a1be8a unblock and unignore SIGPIPE
Blocked and ignored signals -- but not caught signals -- are inherited
across exec.  Some callers with sloppy signal-handling behavior can call
git with SIGPIPE blocked or ignored, even non-deterministically.  When
SIGPIPE is blocked or ignored, several git commands can run indefinitely,
ignoring EPIPE returns from write() calls, even when the process that
called them has gone away.  Our specific case involved a pipe of git
diff-tree output to a script that reads a limited amount of diff data.

In an ideal world, git would never be called with SIGPIPE blocked or
ignored.  But in the real world, several real potential callers, including
Perl, Apache, and Unicorn, sometimes spawn subprocesses with SIGPIPE
ignored.  It is easier and more productive to harden git against this
mistake than to clean it up in every potential parent process.

578da0391a git: add performance tracing for git's main() function to debug scripts
Use trace_performance to measure and print execution time and command line
arguments of the entire main() function. In constrast to the shell's 'time'
utility, which measures total time of the parent process, this logs all
involved git commands recursively. This is particularly useful to debug
performance issues of scripted commands (i.e. which git commands were
called with which parameters, and how long did they execute).

Due to git's deliberate use of exit(), the implementation uses an atexit
routine rather than just adding trace_performance_since() at the end of
main().

Usage example: > GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=~/git-trace.log git stash list

Creates a log file like this:
23:57:38.638765 trace.c:405 performance: 0.000310107 s: git command: 'git' 'rev-parse' '--git-dir'

Provide a command "verify-commit" which is analogous to "verify-tag": It
returns 0 for good signatures and non-zero otherwise, has the gpg output
on stderr and (optionally) the commit object on stdout, sans the
signature, just like "verify-tag" does.

ae021d8791 use skip_prefix to avoid magic numbers
It's a common idiom to match a prefix and then skip past it
with a magic number, like:

  if (starts_with(foo, "bar"))
	  foo += 3;

This is easy to get wrong, since you have to count the
prefix string yourself, and there's no compiler check if the
string changes.  We can use skip_prefix to avoid the magic
numbers here.

Note that some of these conversions could be much shorter.
For example:

  if (starts_with(arg, "--foo=")) {
	  bar = arg + 6;
	  continue;
  }

could become:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &bar))
	  continue;

However, I have left it as:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = v;
	  continue;
  }

to visually match nearby cases which need to actually
process the string. Like:

  if (skip_prefix(arg, "--foo=", &v)) {
	  bar = atoi(v);
	  continue;
  }

c0562611c5 git potty: restore environments after alias expansion
Commit 4ad8332 (t0001: test git init when run via an alias -
2010-11-26) noted breakages when running init via alias. The problem
is for alias to be used, $GIT_DIR must be searched, but 'init' and
'clone' are not happy with that. So we start a new process like an
external command, with clean environment in this case. Env variables
that are set by command line (e.g. "git --git-dir=.. ") are kept.

This should also fix autocorrecting a command typo to "init" because
it's the same problem: aliases are read, then "init" is unhappy with
$GIT_DIR already set up because of that.

069c053222 add GIT_SHALLOW_FILE to propagate --shallow-file to subprocesses
This may be needed when a hook is run after a new shallow pack is
received, but .git/shallow is not settled yet. A temporary shallow
file to plug all loose ends should be used instead. GIT_SHALLOW_FILE
is overriden by --shallow-file.

--shallow-file does not work in this case because the hook may spawn
many git subprocesses and the launch commands do not have
--shallow-file as it's a recent addition.

a1bbc6c017 repack: rewrite the shell script in C
The motivation of this patch is to get closer to a goal of being
able to have a core subset of git functionality built in to git.
That would mean

 * people on Windows could get a copy of at least the core parts
   of Git without having to install a Unix-style shell

 * people using git in on servers with chrooted environments
   do not need to worry about standard tools lacking for shell
   scripts.

This patch is meant to be mostly a literal translation of the
git-repack script; the intent is that later patches would start using
more library facilities, but this patch is meant to be as close to a
no-op as possible so it doesn't do that kind of thing.

44e1e4d67d git: run in a directory given with -C option
This is similar in spirit to "make -C dir ..." and "tar -C dir ...".

It takes more keypresses to invoke git command in a different
directory without leaving the current directory:

    1. (cd ~/foo && git status)
       git --git-dir=~/foo/.git --work-dir=~/foo status
       GIT_DIR=~/foo/.git GIT_WORK_TREE=~/foo git status
    2. (cd ../..; git grep foo)
    3. for d in d1 d2 d3; do (cd $d && git svn rebase); done

The methods shown above are acceptable for scripting but are too
cumbersome for quick command line invocations.

With this new option, the above can be done with fewer keystrokes:

    1. git -C ~/foo status
    2. git -C ../.. grep foo
    3. for d in d1 d2 d3; do git -C $d svn rebase; done

A new test script is added to verify the behavior of this option with
other path-related options like --git-dir and --work-tree.

Not having an open FD in the 0--2 range can lead to strange results,
for example, a subsequent open() may return 2 (stderr) and then a
die() would clobber this file.

git-daemon and git-shell already guarded against this, but apparently
users also manage to trip over it in other git commands.  So we call
sanitize_stdfds() during main git startup.

Since these FDs are inherited, this covers all use of 'git foo ...',
and all internal C commands when called directly.  It does not fix
shell/perl commands called directly.

bd30c2e484 pathspec: support :(glob) syntax
:(glob)path differs from plain pathspec that it uses wildmatch with
WM_PATHNAME while the other uses fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME. The
difference lies in how '*' (and '**') is processed.

With the introduction of :(glob) and :(literal) and their global
options --[no]glob-pathspecs, the user can:

 - make everything literal by default via --noglob-pathspecs
   --literal-pathspecs cannot be used for this purpose as it
   disables _all_ pathspec magic.

 - individually turn on globbing with :(glob)

 - make everything globbing by default via --glob-pathspecs

 - individually turn off globbing with :(literal)

The implication behind this is, there is no way to gain the default
matching behavior (i.e. fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME). You either get
new globbing or literal. The old fnmatch behavior is considered
deprecated and discouraged to use.

84d32bf767 sparse: Fix mingw_main() argument number/type errors
Sparse issues 68 errors (two errors for each main() function) such
as the following:

      SP git.c
  git.c:510:5: error: too many arguments for function mingw_main
  git.c:510:5: error: symbol 'mingw_main' redeclared with different type \
    (originally declared at git.c:510) - different argument counts

The errors are caused by the 'main' macro used by the MinGW build
to provide a replacement main() function. The original main function
is effectively renamed to 'mingw_main' and is called from the new
main function. The replacement main is used to execute certain actions
common to all git programs on MinGW (e.g. ensure the standard I/O
streams are in binary mode).

In order to suppress the errors, we change the macro to include the
parameters in the declaration of the mingw_main function.

Unfortunately, this change provokes both sparse and gcc to complain
about 9 calls to mingw_main(), such as the following:

      CC git.o
  git.c: In function 'main':
  git.c:510: warning: passing argument 2 of 'mingw_main' from \
    incompatible pointer type
  git.c:510: note: expected 'const char **' but argument is of \
    type 'char **'

In order to suppress these warnings, since both of the main
functions need to be declared with the same prototype, we
change the declaration of the 9 main functions, thus:

    int main(int argc, char **argv)

2cd83d10bb setup: suppress implicit "." work-tree for bare repos
If an explicit GIT_DIR is given without a working tree, we
implicitly assume that the current working directory should
be used as the working tree. E.g.,:

  GIT_DIR=/some/repo.git git status

would compare against the cwd.

Unfortunately, we fool this rule for sub-invocations of git
by setting GIT_DIR internally ourselves. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails, as we expect
  git config alias.st status
  git status ;# does not fail, but should

What happens is that we run setup_git_directory when doing
alias lookup (since we need to see the config), set GIT_DIR
as a result, and then leave GIT_WORK_TREE blank (because we
do not have one). Then when we actually run the status
command, we do setup_git_directory again, which sees our
explicit GIT_DIR and uses the cwd as an implicit worktree.

It's tempting to argue that we should be suppressing that
second invocation of setup_git_directory, as it could use
the values we already found in memory. However, the problem
still exists for sub-processes (e.g., if "git status" were
an external command).

You can see another example with the "--bare" option, which
sets GIT_DIR explicitly. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails
  git --bare status ;# does NOT fail

We need some way of telling sub-processes "even though
GIT_DIR is set, do not use cwd as an implicit working tree".
We could do it by putting a special token into
GIT_WORK_TREE, but the obvious choice (an empty string) has
some portability problems.

Instead, we add a new boolean variable, GIT_IMPLICIT_WORK_TREE,
which suppresses the use of cwd as a working tree when
GIT_DIR is set. We trigger the new variable when we know we
are in a bare setting.

The variable is left intentionally undocumented, as this is
an internal detail (for now, anyway). If somebody comes up
with a good alternate use for it, and once we are confident
we have shaken any bugs out of it, we can consider promoting
it further.

823ab40fd4 add global --literal-pathspecs option
Git takes pathspec arguments in many places to limit the
scope of an operation. These pathspecs are treated not as
literal paths, but as glob patterns that can be fed to
fnmatch. When a user is giving a specific pattern, this is a
nice feature.

However, when programatically providing pathspecs, it can be
a nuisance. For example, to find the latest revision which
modified "$foo", one can use "git rev-list -- $foo". But if
"$foo" contains glob characters (e.g., "f*"), it will
erroneously match more entries than desired. The caller
needs to quote the characters in $foo, and even then, the
results may not be exactly the same as with a literal
pathspec. For instance, the depth checks in
match_pathspec_depth do not kick in if we match via fnmatch.

This patch introduces a global command-line option (i.e.,
one for "git" itself, not for specific commands) to turn
this behavior off. It also has a matching environment
variable, which can make it easier if you are a script or
porcelain interface that is going to issue many such
commands.

This option cannot turn off globbing for particular
pathspecs. That could eventually be done with a ":(noglob)"
magic pathspec prefix. However, that level of granularity is
more cumbersome to use for many cases, and doing ":(noglob)"
right would mean converting the whole codebase to use
"struct pathspec", as the usual "const char **pathspec"
cannot represent extra per-item flags.

7e29b8254f Add column layout skeleton and git-column
A column option string consists of many token separated by either
a space or a  comma. A token belongs to one of three groups:

 - enabling: always, never and auto
 - layout mode: currently plain (which does not layout at all)
 - other future tuning flags

git-column can be used to pipe output to from a command that wants

10c6cddd92 dashed externals: kill children on exit
Several git commands are so-called dashed externals, that is commands
executed as a child process of the git wrapper command. If the git
wrapper is killed by a signal, the child process will continue to run.
This is different from internal commands, which always die with the git
wrapper command.

Enable the recently introduced cleanup mechanism for child processes in
order to make dashed externals act more in line with internal commands.

5e9637c629 i18n: add infrastructure for translating Git with gettext
Change the skeleton implementation of i18n in Git to one that can show
localized strings to users for our C, Shell and Perl programs using
either GNU libintl or the Solaris gettext implementation.

This new internationalization support is enabled by default. If
gettext isn't available, or if Git is compiled with
NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease, Git falls back on its current behavior of
showing interface messages in English. When using the autoconf script
we'll auto-detect if the gettext libraries are installed and act
appropriately.

This change is somewhat large because as well as adding a C, Shell and
Perl i18n interface we're adding a lot of tests for them, and for
those tests to work we need a skeleton PO file to actually test
translations. A minimal Icelandic translation is included for this
purpose. Icelandic includes multi-byte characters which makes it easy
to test various edge cases, and it's a language I happen to
understand.

The rest of the commit message goes into detail about various
sub-parts of this commit.

= Installation

Gettext .mo files will be installed and looked for in the standard
$(prefix)/share/locale path. GIT_TEXTDOMAINDIR can also be set to
override that, but that's only intended to be used to test Git itself.

= Perl

Perl code that's to be localized should use the new Git::I18n
module. It imports a __ function into the caller's package by default.

Instead of using the high level Locale::TextDomain interface I've
opted to use the low-level (equivalent to the C interface)
Locale::Messages module, which Locale::TextDomain itself uses.

Locale::TextDomain does a lot of redundant work we don't need, and
some of it would potentially introduce bugs. It tries to set the
$TEXTDOMAIN based on package of the caller, and has its own
hardcoded paths where it'll search for messages.

I found it easier just to completely avoid it rather than try to
circumvent its behavior. In any case, this is an issue wholly
internal Git::I18N. Its guts can be changed later if that's deemed
necessary.

See <AANLkTilYD_NyIZMyj9dHtVk-ylVBfvyxpCC7982LWnVd@mail.gmail.com> for
a further elaboration on this topic.

= Shell

Shell code that's to be localized should use the git-sh-i18n
library. It's basically just a wrapper for the system's gettext.sh.

If gettext.sh isn't available we'll fall back on gettext(1) if it's
available. The latter is available without the former on Solaris,
which has its own non-GNU gettext implementation. We also need to
emulate eval_gettext() there.

If neither are present we'll use a dumb printf(1) fall-through
wrapper.

= About libcharset.h and langinfo.h

We use libcharset to query the character set of the current locale if
it's available. I.e. we'll use it instead of nl_langinfo if
HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is set.

The GNU gettext manual recommends using langinfo.h's
nl_langinfo(CODESET) to acquire the current character set, but on
systems that have libcharset.h's locale_charset() using the latter is
either saner, or the only option on those systems.

GNU and Solaris have a nl_langinfo(CODESET), FreeBSD can use either,
but MinGW and some others need to use libcharset.h's locale_charset()
instead.

=Credits

a1bea2c1fc ref namespaces: infrastructure
Add support for dividing the refs of a single repository into multiple
namespaces, each of which can have its own branches, tags, and HEAD.
Git can expose each namespace as an independent repository to pull from
and push to, while sharing the object store, and exposing all the refs
to operations such as git-gc.

Storing multiple repositories as namespaces of a single repository
avoids storing duplicate copies of the same objects, such as when
storing multiple branches of the same source.  The alternates mechanism
provides similar support for avoiding duplicates, but alternates do not
prevent duplication between new objects added to the repositories
without ongoing maintenance, while namespaces do.

To specify a namespace, set the GIT_NAMESPACE environment variable to
the namespace.  For each ref namespace, git stores the corresponding
refs in a directory under refs/namespaces/.  For example,
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo will store refs under refs/namespaces/foo/.  You can
also specify namespaces via the --namespace option to git.

Note that namespaces which include a / will expand to a hierarchy of
namespaces; for example, GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar will store refs under
refs/namespaces/foo/refs/namespaces/bar/.  This makes paths in
GIT_NAMESPACE behave hierarchically, so that cloning with
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar produces the same result as cloning with
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo and cloning from that repo with GIT_NAMESPACE=bar.  It
also avoids ambiguity with strange namespace paths such as
foo/refs/heads/, which could otherwise generate directory/file conflicts
within the refs directory.

Add the infrastructure for ref namespaces: handle the GIT_NAMESPACE
environment variable and --namespace option, and support iterating over
refs in a namespace.

73546c085d handle_options(): do not miscount how many arguments were used
The handle_options() function advances the base of the argument array and
returns the number of arguments it used. The caller in handle_alias()
wants to reallocate the argv array it passes to this function, and
attempts to do so by subtracting the returned value to compensate for the
change handle_options() makes to the new_argv.

But handle_options() did not correctly count when "-c <config=value>" is
given, causing a wrong pointer to be passed to realloc().

Fix it by saving the original argv at the beginning of handle_options(),
and return the difference between the final value of argv, which will
relieve the places that move the array pointer from the additional burden
of keeping track of "handled" counter.

1fda91b511 Fix 'git log' early pager startup error case
We start the pager too early for several git commands, which results in
the errors sometimes going to the pager rather than show up as errors.

This is often hidden by the fact that we pass in '-X' to less by default,
which causes 'less' to exit for small output, but if you do

  export LESS=-S

you can then clearly see the problem by doing

  git log --prretty

which shows the error message ("fatal: unrecognized argument: --prretty")
being sent to the pager.

This happens for pretty much all git commands that use USE_PAGER, and then
check arguments separately. But "git diff" does it too early too (even
though it does an explicit setup_pager() call)

This only fixes it for the trivial "git log" family case.

This works fine for built-ins, but the config changes are
silently ignored by subprocesses, including dashed externals

This patch instead puts them in an environment variable
which we consult when looking at config (both internally and

ee38dfb89e git wrapper: allow setup_git_directory_gently() be called earlier
In the spirit of v1.4.2-rc3~34^2^2 (Call setup_git_directory() much
earlier, 2006-07-28), let run_builtin() take care of searching for a
repository for built-ins that want to make use of one if present.

So now you can mark your command with RUN_SETUP_GENTLY and use

	nongit = !startup_info->have_repository;

in place of

	prefix = setup_git_directory_gently(&nongit);

and everything will be the same, except the repository is
discovered a little sooner.

As v1.7.2~16^2 (2010-07-14) explains, this should allow more commands
to robustly use features like "git --paginate" that look at local
configuration before the command is actually run.

This patch sets up the infrastructure.  Later patches will teach
particular commands to use it.

e37c1329fa git wrapper: introduce startup_info struct
The startup_info struct will collect information managed by the git
setup code, such as the prefix for relative paths passed on the
command line (i.e., path to the starting cwd from the toplevel of
the work tree) and whether a git repository has been found.

In other words, startup_info is intended to be a collection of global
variables with results that were previously returned from setup
functions.  This state is global anyway (since the cwd is), even
if it is not currently tracked that way.  Letting these values persist
means there is more flexibility in deciding when to run setup.

For now, the struct is empty.

030149a4dc git --paginate: paginate external commands again
73e25e7c (git --paginate: do not commit pager choice too early,
2010-06-26) failed to take some cases into account.

1b. Builtins that do not use RUN_SETUP (like git config) do
    not find GIT_DIR set correctly when the pager is launched
    from run_builtin().  So the core.pager configuration is
    not honored from subdirectories of the toplevel for them.

4a. External git commands (like git request-pull) relied on the
    early pager launch to take care of handling the -p option.
    Ever since 73e25e7c, they do not honor the -p option at all.

4b. Commands invoked through ! aliases (like ls) were also relying
    on the early pager launch.

Fix (4a) by launching the pager (if requested) before running such a
“dashed external”.  For simplicity, this still does not search for a
.git directory before running the external command; when run from a
subdirectory of the toplevel, therefore, the “[core] pager”
configuration is still not honored.

Fix (4b) by launching pager if requested before carrying out such an
alias.  Actually doing this has no effect, since the pager (if any)
would have already been launched in a failed attempt to try a
dashed external first.  The choice-of-pager-not-honored-from-
subdirectory bug still applies here, too.

(1b) is not a regression.  There is no need to fix it yet.

Noticed by Junio.

73e25e7cc8 git --paginate: do not commit pager choice too early
When git is passed the --paginate option, starting up a pager requires
deciding what pager to start, which requires access to the core.pager
configuration.

At the relevant moment, the repository has not been searched for yet.
Attempting to access the configuration at this point results in
git_dir being set to .git [*], which is almost certainly not what was
wanted.  In particular, when run from a subdirectory of the toplevel,
git --paginate does not respect the core.pager setting from the
current repository.

[*] unless GIT_DIR or GIT_CONFIG is set

So delay the pager startup when possible:

1. run_argv() already commits pager choice inside run_builtin() if a
   command is found.  For commands that use RUN_SETUP, waiting until
   then fixes the problem described above: once git knows where to
   look, it happily respects the core.pager setting.

2. list_common_cmds_help() prints out 29 lines and exits.  This can
   benefit from pagination, so we need to commit the pager choice
   before writing this output.

   Luckily ‘git’ without subcommand has no other reason to access a
   repository, so it would be intuitive to ignore repository-local
   configuration in this case.  Simpler for now to choose a pager
   using the funny code that notices a repository that happens to be
   at .git.  That this accesses a repository when it is very
   convenient to is a bug but not an important one.

3. help_unknown_cmd() prints out a few lines to stderr.  It is not
   important to paginate this, so don’t.

678e484b7d grep: Add the option '--open-files-in-pager'
This adds an option to open the matching files in the pager, and if the
pager happens to be "less" (or "vi") and there is only one grep pattern,
it also jumps to the first match right away.

The short option was chose as '-O' to avoid clashes with GNU grep's
options (as suggested by Junio).

So, 'git grep -O abc' is a short form for 'less +/abc $(grep -l abc)'
except that it works also with spaces in file names, and it does not
start the pager if there was no matching file.

squashed in]

As part of the builtin-ification, we add the commit_notes() function

be easily used from other builtins to manipulate the notes tree.

Also includes needed changes to t3301.

b0fa7ab51b git: add --no-replace-objects option to disable replacing
Commit dae556b (environment: add global variable to disable replacement)
adds a variable to enable/disable replacement, and it is enabled by
default for most commands.

So there is no way to disable it for some commands, which is annoying
when we want to get information about a commit that has been replaced.

For example:

$ git cat-file -p N

would output information about the replacement commit if commit N is
replaced.

With the "--no-replace-objects" option that this patch adds it is
possible to get information about the original commit using:

$ git --no-replace-objects cat-file -p N

While at it, let's add some documentation about this new option in the
"git replace" man page too.

c024beb56d run_command: report failure to execute the program, but optionally don't
In the case where a program was not found, it was still the task of the
caller to report an error to the user. Usually, this is an interesting case
but only few callers actually reported a specific error (though many call
sites report a generic error message regardless of the cause).

With this change the error is reported by run_command, but since there is
one call site in git.c that does not want that, an option is added to
struct child_process, which is used to turn the error off.

0ac77ec315 run_command: report system call errors instead of returning error codes
The motivation for this change is that system call failures are serious
errors that should be reported to the user, but only few callers took the
burden to decode the error codes that the functions returned into error
messages.

If at all, then only an unspecific error message was given. A prominent
example is this:

   $ git upload-pack . | :
   fatal: unable to run 'git-upload-pack'

In this example, git-upload-pack, the external command invoked through the
git wrapper, dies due to SIGPIPE, but the git wrapper does not bother to
report the real cause. In fact, this very error message is copied to the
syslog if git-daemon's client aborts the connection early.

With this change, system call failures are reported immediately after the
failure and only a generic failure code is returned to the caller. In the
above example the error is now to the point:

   $ git upload-pack . | :
   error: git-upload-pack died of signal

Note that there is no error report if the invoked program terminated with
a non-zero exit code, because it is reasonable to expect that the invoked
program has already reported an error. (But many run_command call sites
nevertheless write a generic error message.)

There was one special return code that was used to identify the case where
run_command failed because the requested program could not be exec'd. This
special case is now treated like a system call failure with errno set to
ENOENT. No error is reported in this case, because the call site in git.c
expects this as a normal result. Therefore, the callers that carefully
decoded the return value still check for this condition.

5709e0363a run_command: return exit code as positive value
As a general guideline, functions in git's code return zero to indicate
success and negative values to indicate failure. The run_command family of
functions followed this guideline. But there are actually two different
kinds of failure:

- failures of system calls;

- non-zero exit code of the program that was run.

Usually, a non-zero exit code of the program is a failure and means a
failure to the caller. Except that sometimes it does not. For example, the
exit code of merge programs (e.g. external merge drivers) conveys
information about how the merge failed, and not all exit calls are
actually failures.

Furthermore, the return value of run_command is sometimes used as exit
code by the caller.

This change arranges that the exit code of the program is returned as a
positive value, which can now be regarded as the "result" of the function.
System call failures continue to be reported as negative values.

47e3de0e79 MinGW: truncate exit()'s argument to lowest 8 bits
For some reason, MinGW's bash cannot reliably detect failure of the child
process if a negative value is passed to exit(). This fixes it by
truncating the exit code in all calls of exit().

This issue was worked around in run_builtin() of git.c (2488df84 builtin
run_command: do not exit with -1, 2007-11-15). This workaround is no longer
necessary and is reverted.

6167c13657 git.c: avoid allocating one-too-many elements for new argv array
When creating a new argv array from a configured alias and the supplied
command line arguments, the new argv was allocated with one element too
many.  Since the first element of the original argv array is skipped when
copying it to the new_argv, the number of elements that are allocated
should be reduced by one.  'count' is the number of elements that new_argv
contains, and *argcp is the number of elements in the original argv array.
So the total allocation (including the terminating NULL entry) for the
new_argv array should be:

  count + (*argcp - 1) + 1

Also, the explicit assignment of the NULL terminating entry can be avoided
by just copying it over from the original argv array.

This patch implements a new "git bisect--helper" builtin plumbing
command that will be used to migrate "git-bisect.sh" to C.

We start by implementing only the "--next-vars" option that will
read bisect refs from "refs/bisect/", and then compute the next
bisect step, and output shell variables ready to be eval'ed by
the shell.

At this step, "git bisect--helper" ignores the paths that may
have been put in "$GIT_DIR/BISECT_NAMES". This will be fixed in a
later patch.

d8e96fd86d git: use run_command() to execute dashed externals
We used to simply try calling execvp(); if it succeeded, then we were done
and the new program was running. If it didn't, then we knew that it wasn't
a valid command.

Unfortunately, this interacted badly with the new pager handling. Now that
git remains the parent process and the pager is spawned, git has to hang
around until the pager is finished. We install an atexit handler to do
this, but that handler never gets called if we successfully run execvp.

You could see this behavior by running any dashed external using a pager
(e.g., "git -p stash list"). The command finishes running, but the pager
is still going. In the case of less, it then gets an error reading from
the terminal and exits, potentially leaving the terminal in a broken state
(and not showing the output).

This patch just uses run_command() to try running the dashed external. The
parent git process then waits for the external process to complete and
then handles the pager cleanup as it would for an internal command.

a907e1b6ec git.c: make autocorrected aliases work
help_unknown_cmd() is able to autocorrect a command to an alias, and not
only to internal or external commands. However, main() was not passing the
autocorrected command through handle_alias(), hence it failed if it was an
alias.

This commit makes the autocorrected command go through handle_alias(), once
handle_internal_command() and execv_dashed_external() have been tried. Since
this is done twice in main() now, moved that logic to a new run_argv()
function.

Also, print the same "Expansion of alias 'x' failed" message when the alias
was autocorrected, rather than a generic "Failed to run command 'x'".

This patch introduces a modified Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm into
Git's code base, and uses it with the following penalties to show some
similar commands when an unknown command was encountered:

	swap = 0, insertion = 1, substitution = 2, deletion = 4

A typical output would now look like this:

	$ git sm
	git: 'sm' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'.

	Did you mean one of these?
		am
		rm

The cut-off is at similarity rating 6, which was empirically determined
to give sensible results.

As a convenience, if there is only one candidate, Git continues under
the assumption that the user mistyped it.  Example:

	$ git reabse
	WARNING: You called a Git program named 'reabse', which does
	not exist.
	Continuing under the assumption that you meant 'rebase'

4e10738a93 Allow per-command pager config
There is great debate over whether some commands should set
up a pager automatically. This patch allows individuals to
set their own pager preferences for each command, overriding
the default. For example, to disable the pager for git
status:

  git config pager.status false

If "--pager" or "--no-pager" is specified on the command
line, it takes precedence over the config option.

There are two caveats:

  - you can turn on the pager for plumbing commands.
    Combined with "core.pager = always", this will probably
    break a lot of things. Don't do it.

  - This only works for builtin commands. The reason is
    somewhat complex:

    Calling git_config before we do setup_git_directory
    has bad side effects, because it wants to know where
    the git_dir is to find ".git/config". Unfortunately,
    we cannot call setup_git_directory indiscriminately,
    because some builtins (like "init") break if we do.

    For builtins, this is OK, since we can just wait until
    after we call setup_git_directory. But for aliases, we
    don't know until we expand (recursively) which command
    we're doing. This should not be a huge problem for
    aliases, which can simply use "--pager" or "--no-pager"
    in the alias as appropriate.

    For external commands, however, we don't know we even
    have an external command until we exec it, and by then
    it is too late to check the config.

    An alternative approach would be to have a config mode
    where we don't bother looking at .git/config, but only
    at the user and system config files. This would make the
    behavior consistent across builtins, aliases, and
    external commands, at the cost of not allowing per-repo
    pager config for at all.

2d35d556e2 Ignore .gitattributes in bare repositories
Attributes can be specified at three different places: the internal
table of default values, the file $GIT_DIR/info/attributes and files
named .gitattributes in the work tree.  Since bare repositories don't
have a work tree, git should ignore any .gitattributes files there.

This patch makes git do that, so the only way left for a user to specify
attributes in a bare repository is the file info/attributes (in addition
to changing the defaults and recompiling).

In addition, git-check-attr is now allowed to run without a work tree.
Like any user of the code in attr.c, it ignores the .gitattributes files
when run in a bare repository.  It can still read from info/attributes.

e85dc0a3c7 Accept git aliases outside a git repository
af05d67 (Always set *nongit_ok in setup_git_directory_gently(),
2008-03-25) had a change from the patch originally submitted that resulted
in disabling aliases outside a git repository.

It turns out that some people used "alias.fubar = diff --color-words" in
$HOME/.gitconfig to use non-index diff (or any command that do not need
git repository) outside git repositories, and this change broke them,
so this resurrects the support for such usage.

782c2d65c2 Build in checkout
The only differences in behavior should be:

 - git checkout -m with non-trivial merging won't print out
   merge-recursive messages (see the change in t7201-co.sh)

 - git checkout -- paths... will give a sensible error message if
   HEAD is invalid as a commit.

 - some intermediate states which were written to disk in the shell
   version (in particular, index states) are only kept in memory in
   this version, and therefore these can no longer be revealed by
   later write operations becoming impossible.

 - when we change branches, we discard MERGE_MSG, SQUASH_MSG, and
   rr-cache/MERGE_RR, like reset always has.

I'm not 100% sure I got the merge recursive setup exactly right; the
base for a non-trivial merge in the shell code doesn't seem
theoretically justified to me, but I tried to match it anyway, and the
tests all pass this way.

Other than these items, the results should be identical to the shell
version, so far as I can tell.

e1b3a2cad7 Build-in merge-recursive
This makes write_tree_from_memory(), which writes the active cache as
a tree and returns the struct tree for it, available to other code. It
also makes available merge_trees(), which does the internal merge of
two trees with a known base, and merge_recursive(), which does the
recursive internal merge of two commits with a list of common
ancestors.

The first two of these will be used by checkout -m, and the third is
presumably useful in general, although the implementation of checkout
-m which entirely matches the behavior of the shell version does not
use it (since it ignores the difference of ancestry between the old
branch and the new branch).
