René Scharfe deb8e15a19 rm: reuse strbuf for all remove_dir_recursively() calls
Don't throw the memory allocated for remove_dir_recursively() away after
a single call, use it for the other entries as well instead.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy 211c61c6cf pack-objects: pass length to check_pack_crc() without truncation
On 32 bit systems with large file support, unsigned long is 32-bit
while the two offsets in the subtraction expression (pack-objects has
the exact same expression as in sha1_file.c but not shown in diff) are
in 64-bit. If an in-pack object is larger than 2^32 len/datalen is
truncated and we get a misleading "error: bad packed object CRC for
..." as a result.

Use off_t for len and datalen. check_pack_crc() already accepts this
argument as off_t and can deal with 4+ GB.

Johannes Schindelin 715a51bcaf am: counteract gender bias
Since 47f0b6d5 (Fall back to three-way merge when applying a patch.,
2005-10-06), i.e. for almost 11 years already, we used a male form
to describe "the other tree".

While it was unintended, this gave the erroneous impression as if
the Git developers thought of users as male, and were unaware of the
important role in software development played by female actors such
as Ada Lovelace, Grace Hopper and Margaret Hamilton. In fact, the
first professional software developers were all female.

Let's change those unfortunate references to the gender neutral
"their tree".  Doing so also makes the fallback_merge_recursive(),
which is an oddball, more in line with the other parts of the system
where we contrast what we have vs what we obtain from others by
saying "ours" vs "theirs".  This inconsistency was also unintended.

Jeff King 7eb6e10c9d branch: use write_file_buf instead of write_file
If we already have a strbuf, then using write_file_buf is a
little nicer to read (no wondering whether "%s" will eat
your NULs), and it's more efficient (no extra formatting
step).

We don't care about the newline magic of write_file(), as we
have our own multi-line content.

Jeff King 3d75bba28d branch: use non-gentle write_file for branch description
We use write_file_gently() to do this job currently.
However, if we see an error, we simply complain via
error_errno() and then end up exiting with an error code.

By switching to the non-gentle form, the function will die
for us, with a better error. It is more specific about which
syscall caused the error, and that mentions the
actual filename we're trying to write.

Our exit code for the error case does switch from "1" to
"128", but that's OK; it wasn't a meaningful documented code
(and in fact it was odd that it was a different exit code
than most other error conditions).

Jeff King aabbd3f3c9 config: fix bogus fd check when setting up default config
Since 9830534 (config --global --edit: create a template
file if needed, 2014-07-25), an edit of the global config
file will try to open() it with O_EXCL, and wants to handle
three cases:

  1. We succeeded; the user has no config file, and we
     should fill in the default template.

  2. We got EEXIST; they have a file already, proceed as usual.

  3. We got another error; we should complain.

However, the check for case 1 does "if (fd)", which will
generally _always_ be true (except for the oddball case that
somehow our stdin got closed and opening really did give us
a new descriptor 0).

So in the EEXIST case, we tried to write the default config
anyway! Fortunately, this turns out to be a noop, since we
just end up writing to and closing "-1", which does nothing.

But in case 3, we would fail to notice any other errors, and
just silently continue (given that we don't actually notice
write errors for the template either, it's probably not that
big a deal; we're about to spawn the editor, so it would
notice any problems. But the code is clearly _trying_ to hit
cover this case and failing).

We can fix it easily by using "fd >= 0" for case 1.

Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy bc437d1020 fetch: reduce duplicate in ref update status lines with placeholder
In the "remote -> local" line, if either ref is a substring of the
other, the common part in the other string is replaced with "*". For
example

    abc                -> origin/abc
    refs/pull/123/head -> pull/123

become

    abc         -> origin/*
    refs/*/head -> pull/123

Activated with fetch.output=compact.

For the record, this output is not perfect. A single giant ref can
push all refs very far to the right and likely be wrapped around. We
may have a few options:

 - exclude these long lines smarter

 - break the line after "->", exclude it from column width calculation

 - implement a new format, { -> origin/}foo, which makes the problem
   go away at the cost of a bit harder to read

 - reverse all the arrows so we have "* <- looong-ref", again still
   hard to read.

Jeff King 023ff39b29 parse_options: allocate a new array when concatenating
In exactly one callers (builtin/revert.c), we build up the
options list dynamically from multiple arrays. We do so by
manually inserting "filler" entries into one array, and then
copying the other array into the allocated space.

This is tedious and error-prone, as you have to adjust the
filler any time the second array is modified (although we do
at least check and die() when the counts do not match up).

Instead, let's just allocate a new array.

Charles Bailey b8e47d1acf grep: fix grepping for "intent to add" files
This reverts commit 4d5520053 (grep: make it clear i-t-a entries are
ignored, 2015-12-27) and adds an alternative fix to maintain the -L
--cached behavior.

4d5520053 caused 'git grep' to no longer find matches in new files in
the working tree where the corresponding index entry had the "intent to
add" bit set, despite the fact that these files are tracked.

The content in the index of a file for which the "intent to add" bit is
set is considered indeterminate and not empty. For most grep queries we
want these to behave the same, however for -L --cached (files without a
match) we don't want to respond positively for "intent to add" files as
their contents are indeterminate. This is in contrast to files with
empty contents in the index (no lines implies no matches for any grep
query expression) which should be reported in the output of a grep -L
--cached invocation.

Add tests to cover this case and a few related cases which previously
lacked coverage.

While Git itself only produces commit objects with a single empty line
between commit header and commit message, it is legal to have more than
one blank line (i.e. lines containing only white space, or no
characters) at the beginning of the commit message, and the
pretty-printing code already handles that.

We just taught the relevant functions to respect the diffopt.file field,
to allow writing somewhere else than stdout. Let's make use of it.

Technically, we do not need to avoid that call in a builtin: we assume
that builtins (as opposed to library functions) are stand-alone programs
that may do with their (global) state. Yet, we want to be able to reuse
that code in properly lib-ified code, e.g. when converting scripts into
builtins.

Further, while we did not *have* to touch the cmd_show() and cmd_cherry()
code paths (because they do not want to write anywhere but stdout as of
yet), it just makes sense to be consistent, making it easier and safer to
move the code later.

Johannes Schindelin 11f4eb1984 format-patch: explicitly switch off color when writing to files
The --color=auto handling is done by seeing if file descriptor 1
(the standard output) is connected to a terminal.  format-patch
used freopen() to reuse the standard output stream even when sending
its output to an on-disk file, and this check is appropriate.

In the next step, however, we will stop reusing "FILE *stdout", and
instead start using arbitrary file descriptor obtained by doing an
fopen(3) ourselves.  The check --color=auto does will become useless,
as we no longer are writing to the standard output stream.

But then, we do not need to guess to begin with. As argued in the commit
message of 7787570c (format-patch: ignore ui.color, 2011-09-13), we do not
allow the ui.color setting to affect format-patch's output. The only time,
therefore, that we allow color sequences to be written to the output files
is when the user specified the --color=always command-line option explicitly.

Johannes Schindelin 6ea57703f6 log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse the diffopt.close_file attribute
We are about to teach the log-tree machinery to reuse the diffopt.file
field to output to a file stream other than stdout, in line with the
diff machinery already writing to diffopt.file.

However, we might want to write something after the diff in
log_tree_commit() (e.g. with the --show-linear-break option), therefore
we must not let the diff machinery close the file (as per
diffopt.close_file.

This means that log_tree_commit() itself must override the
diffopt.close_file flag and close the file, and if log_tree_commit() is
called in a loop, the caller is responsible to do the same.

Note: format-patch has an `--output-directory` option. Due to the fact
that format-patch's options are parsed first, and that the parse-options
machinery accepts uniquely abbreviated options, the diff options
`--output` (and `-o`) are shadowed. Therefore close_file is not set to 1
so that cmd_format_patch() does *not* need to handle the close_file flag
differently, even if it calls log_tree_commit() in a loop.

In v2.9.0, we prematurely flipped the default to force cloning

shallowly.  This is likely to fail when the upstream repositories
submodules are cloned from a repository that is not prepared to
serve histories that ends at a commit that is not at the tip of a

Use a safer default to clone the submodules fully, unless the user

submodules are willing to cooperate with "--shallow-submodules"

Jeff King e26a8c4721 repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objects
If you use "repack -adk" currently, we will pack all objects
that are already packed into the new pack, and then drop the
old packs. However, loose unreachable objects will be left
as-is. In theory these are meant to expire eventually with
"git prune". But if you are using "repack -k", you probably
want to keep things forever and therefore do not run "git
prune" at all. Meaning those loose objects may build up over
time and end up fooling any object-count heuristics (such as
the one done by "gc --auto", though since git-gc does not
support "repack -k", this really applies to whatever custom
scripts people might have driving "repack -k").

With this patch, we instead stuff any loose unreachable
objects into the pack along with the already-packed
unreachable objects. This may seem wasteful, but it is
really no more so than using "repack -k" in the first place.
We are at a slight disadvantage, in that we have no useful
ordering for the result, or names to hand to the delta code.
However, this is again no worse than what "repack -k" is
already doing for the packed objects. The packing of these
objects doesn't matter much because they should not be
accessed frequently (unless they actually _do_ become
referenced, but then they would get moved to a different
part of the packfile during the next repack).

Jeff King 905f27b86a repack: add --keep-unreachable option
The usual way to do a full repack (and what is done by
git-gc) is to run "repack -Ad --unpack-unreachable=<when>",
which will loosen any unreachable objects newer than
"<when>", and drop any older ones.

This is a safer alternative to "repack -ad", because
"<when>" becomes a grace period during which we will not
drop any new objects that are about to be referenced.
However, it isn't perfectly safe. It's always possible that
a process is about to reference an old object. Even if that
process were to take care to update the timestamp on the
object, there is no atomicity with a simultaneously running
"repack" process.

So while unlikely, there is a small race wherein we may drop
an object that is in the process of being referenced. If you
do automated repacking on a large number of active
repositories, you may hit it eventually, and the result is a
corrupted repository.

It would be nice to fix that race in the long run, but it's
complicated.  In the meantime, there is a much simpler
strategy for automated repository maintenance: do not drop
objects at all. We already have a "--keep-unreachable"
option in pack-objects; we just need to plumb it through
from git-repack.

Note that this _isn't_ plumbed through from git-gc, so at
this point it's strictly a tool for people doing their own
advanced repository maintenance strategy.

Jeff King 2721ce21e4 use string_list initializer consistently
There are two types of string_lists: those that own the
string memory, and those that don't. You can tell the
difference by the strdup_strings flag, and one should use
either STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, or STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP as an
initializer.

Historically, the normal all-zeros initialization has
corresponded to the NODUP case. Many sites use no
initializer at all, and that works as a shorthand for that
case. But for a reader of the code, it can be hard to
remember which is which. Let's be more explicit and actually
have each site declare which type it means to use.

This is a fairly mechanical conversion; I assumed each site
was correct as-is, and just switched them all to NODUP.

Eric Wong 9f23e04061 pretty: support "mboxrd" output format
This output format prevents format-patch output from breaking
readers if somebody copy+pasted an mbox into a commit message.

Unlike the traditional "mboxo" format, "mboxrd" is designed to
be fully-reversible.  "mboxrd" also gracefully degrades to
showing extra ">" in existing "mboxo" readers.

This degradation is preferable to breaking message splitting
completely, a problem I've seen in "mboxcl" due to having
multiple, non-existent, or inaccurate Content-Length headers.

"mboxcl2" is a non-starter since it's inherits the problems
of "mboxcl" while being completely incompatible with existing
tooling based around mailsplit.

Christian Couder 8f31fac365 builtin/apply: add 'lock_file' pointer into 'struct apply_state'
We cannot have a 'struct lock_file' allocated on the stack, as lockfile.c
keeps a linked list of all created lock_file structures.

Also 'struct apply_state' users might later want the same 'struct lock_file'
instance to be reused by different series of calls to the apply api.

So let's add a 'struct lock_file *lock_file' pointer into 'struct apply_state'
and have the user of 'struct apply_state' allocate memory for the actual
'struct lock_file' instance.

Let's also add an argument to init_apply_state(), so that the caller can
easily supply a pointer to the allocated instance.

Jeff King fb85db84dc rev-list: disable bitmaps when "-n" is used with listing objects
You can ask rev-list to use bitmaps to speed up an --objects
traversal, which should generally give you your answers much
faster.

Likewise, you can ask rev-list to limit such a traversal
with `-n`, in which case we'll show only a limited set of
commits (and only the tree and commit objects directly
reachable from those commits).

But if you do both together, the results are nonsensical. We
end up limiting any fallback traversal we do to _find_ the
bitmaps, but the actual set of objects we output will be
picked arbitrarily from the union of any bitmaps we do find,
and will involve the objects of many more commits.

It's possible that somebody might want this as a "show me
what you can, but limit the amount of work you do" flag.
But as with the prior commit clamping "--count", the results
are basically non-deterministic; you'll get the values from
some commits between `n` and the total number, and you can't
tell which.

And unlike the `--count` case, we can't easily generate the
"real" value from the bitmap values (you can't just walk
back `-n` commits and subtract out the reachable objects
from the boundary commits; the bitmaps for `X` record its
total reachability, so you don't know which objects are
directly from `X` itself, which from `X^`, and so on).

So let's just fallback to the non-bitmap code path in this
case, so we always give a sane answer.

Jeff King 5c9f9bf313 rev-list: "adjust" results of "--count --use-bitmap-index -n"
If you ask rev-list for:

    git rev-list --count --use-bitmap-index HEAD

we optimize out the actual traversal and just give you the
number of bits set in the commit bitmap. This is faster,
which is good.

But if you ask to limit the size of the traversal, like:

    git rev-list --count --use-bitmap-index -n 100 HEAD

we'll still output the full bitmapped number we found. On
the surface, that might even seem OK. You explicitly asked
to use the bitmap index, and it was cheap to compute the
real answer, so we gave it to you.

But there's something much more complicated going on under
the hood. If we don't have a bitmap directly for HEAD, then
we have to actually traverse backwards, looking for a
bitmapped commit. And _that_ traversal is bounded by our
`-n` count.

This is a good thing, because it bounds the work we have to
do, which is probably what the user wanted by asking for
`-n`. But now it makes the output quite confusing. You might
get many values:

  - your `-n` value, if we walked back and never found a
    bitmap (or fewer if there weren't that many commits)

  - the actual full count, if we found a bitmap root for
    every path of our traversal with in the `-n` limit

  - any number in between! We might have walked back and
    found _some_ bitmaps, but then cut off the traversal
    early with some commits not accounted for in the result.

So you cannot even see a value higher than your `-n` and say
"OK, bitmaps kicked in, this must be the real full count".
The only sane thing is for git to just clamp the value to a
maximum of the `-n` value, which means we should output the
exact same results whether bitmaps are in use or not.

The test in t5310 demonstrates this by using `-n 1`.
Without this patch we fail in the full-bitmap case (where we
do not have to traverse at all) but _not_ in the
partial-bitmap case (where we have to walk down to find an
actual bitmap). With this patch, both cases just work.

I didn't implement the crazy in-between case, just because
it's complicated to set up, and is really a subset of the
full-count case, which we do cover.

and dance with printing '#unmatched' in case of error was left to
git-submodule.sh as it uses the output of the helper and pipes it into

printing '#unmatched' in the helper but always handling these piping
issues in the actual shell script.
