b99b5b40cf Make git archive respect core.autocrlf when creating zip format archives
There is currently no call to git_config at the start of cmd_archive.
When creating tar archives the core config is read as a side-effect of
reading the tar specific config, but this doesn't happen for zip
archives.

The consequence is that in a configuration with core.autocrlf set,
although files in a tar archive are created with crlf line endings,
files in a zip archive retain unix line endings.

3a176c6cde archive: make zip compression level independent from core git
zlib_compression_level is the compression level used for git's object store.
It's 1 by default, which is the fastest setting.  This variable is also used
as the default compression level for ZIP archives created by git archive.

For archives, however, zlib's own default of 6 is more appropriate, as it's
favouring small size over speed -- archive creation is not that performance
critical most of the time.

This patch makes git archive independent from git's internal compression
level setting.  It affects invocations of git archive without explicitly
specified compression level option, only.

Replace the code that calls backend specific argument parsers by a

We can add back such a mechanism (based on incremental parse_opt(),

This prepares the API of git_connect() and finish_connect() to operate on
a struct child_process. Currently, we just use that object as a placeholder
for the pid that we used to return. A follow-up patch will change the
implementation of git_connect() and finish_connect() to make full use
of the object.

Old code had early-return-on-error checks at the calling sites of
git_connect(), but since git_connect() dies on errors anyway, these checks
were removed.

b315c5c081 strbuf change: be sure ->buf is never ever NULL.
For that purpose, the ->buf is always initialized with a char * buf living
in the strbuf module. It is made a char * so that we can sloppily accept
things that perform: sb->buf[0] = '\0', and because you can't pass "" as an
initializer for ->buf without making gcc unhappy for very good reasons.

strbuf_init/_detach/_grow have been fixed to trust ->alloc and not ->buf
anymore.

as a consequence strbuf_detach is _mandatory_ to detach a buffer, copying
->buf isn't an option anymore, if ->buf is going to escape from the scope,
and eventually be free'd.

API changes:
  * strbuf_setlen now always works, so just make strbuf_reset a convenience
    macro.
  * strbuf_detatch takes a size_t* optional argument (meaning it can be
    NULL) to copy the buffer's len, as it was needed for this refactor to
    make the code more readable, and working like the callers.

5ecd293d14 Rewrite convert_to_{git,working_tree} to use strbuf's.
* Now, those functions take an "out" strbuf argument, where they store their
  result if any. In that case, it also returns 1, else it returns 0.
* those functions support "in place" editing, in the sense that it's OK to
  call them this way:
    convert_to_git(path, sb->buf, sb->len, sb);
  When doable, conversions are done in place for real, else the strbuf
  content is just replaced with the new one, transparentely for the caller.

If you want to create a new filter working this way, being the accumulation
of filter1, filter2, ... filtern, then your meta_filter would be:

    int meta_filter(..., const char *src, size_t len, struct strbuf *sb)
    {
        int ret = 0;
        ret |= filter1(...., src, len, sb);
        if (ret) {
            src = sb->buf;
            len = sb->len;
        }
        ret |= filter2(...., src, len, sb);
        if (ret) {
            src = sb->buf;
            len = sb->len;
        }
        ....
        return ret | filtern(..., src, len, sb);
    }

That's why subfilters the convert_to_* functions called were also rewritten
to work this way.

760da9607e archive: fix subst file generation
Before the strbuf conversion, result was a char pointer.  The if
statement checked for it being not NULL, which meant that no
"$Format:...$" string had been found and no replacement had to be
made.  format_subst() returned NULL in that case -- the caller
then simply kept the original file content, as it was unaffected
by the expansion.

The length of the string being 0 is not the same as the string
being NULL (expansion to an empty string vs. no expansion at all),
so checking result.len != 0 is not a full replacement for the old
NULL check.

However, I doubt the subtle optimization explained above resulted
in a notable speed-up anyway.  Simplify the code and add the tail
of the file to the expanded string unconditionally.

[jc: added a test to expose the breakage this fixes]

674d172730 Rework pretty_print_commit to use strbufs instead of custom buffers.
Also remove the "len" parameter, as:
  (1) it was used as a max boundary, and every caller used ~0u
  (2) we check for final NUL no matter what, so it doesn't help for speed.

  As a result most of the pp_* function takes 3 arguments less, and we need
a lot less local variables, this makes the code way more readable, and
easier to extend if needed.

  This patch also fixes some spacing and cosmetic issues.

  This patch also fixes (as a side effect) a memory leak intoruced in
builtin-archive.c at commit df4a394f (fmt was xmalloc'ed and not free'd)

8460b2fcd4 archive: specfile support (--pretty=format: in archive files)
Add support for a new attribute, specfile.  Files marked as being
specfiles are expanded by git-archive when they are written to an
archive.  It has no effect on worktree files.  The same placeholders
as those for the option --pretty=format: of git-log et al. can be
used.

The attribute is useful for creating auto-updating specfiles.  It is
limited by the underlying function format_commit_message(), though.
E.g. currently there is no placeholder for git-describe like output,
and expanded specfiles can't contain NUL bytes.  That can be fixed
in format_commit_message() later and will then benefit users of
git-log, too.

ec587fde0a Make sure git_connect() always give two file descriptors.
Earlier, git_connect() returned the same fd twice or two
separate fds, depending on the way the connection was made (when
we are talking to the other end over a single socket, we used
the same fd twice, and when our end is connected to a pipepair
we used two).

This forced callers who do close() and dup() to really care
which was which, and most of the existing callers got this
wrong, although without much visible ill effect.  Many were
closing the same fd twice when we are talking over a single
socket, and one was leaking a fd.

This fixes it to uniformly use two separate fds, so if somebody
wants to close only reader side can just do close() on it
without worrying about it accidentally also closing the writer
side or vice versa.

executable, because their default SSH log-in does not include the
directory they have their own private copy of git on the $PATH.
These people need to be able to say --exec to git-archive --remote
for the same reason.

37f944363d archive: allow remote to have more formats than we understand.
This fixes git-archive --remote not to parse archiver arguments;
otherwise if the remote end implements formats other than the
one known locally we will not be able to access that format.

4df096a5ca Add git-archive
git-archive is a command to make TAR and ZIP archives of a git tree.
It helps prevent a proliferation of git-{format}-tree commands.

Instead of directly calling git-{tar,zip}-tree command, it defines
a very simple API, that archiver should implement and register in
"git-archive.c". This API is made up by 2 functions whose prototype
is defined in "archive.h" file.

 - The first one is used to parse 'extra' parameters which have
   signification only for the specific archiver. That would allow
   different archive backends to have different kind of options.

 - The second one is used to ask to an archive backend to build
   the archive given some already resolved parameters.

The main reason for making this API is to avoid using
git-{tar,zip}-tree commands, hence making them useless. Maybe it's
time for them to die ?

It also implements remote operations by defining a very simple
protocol: it first sends the name of the specific uploader followed
the repository name (git-upload-tar git://example.org/repo.git).
Then it sends options. It's done by sending a sequence of one
argument per packet, with prefix "argument ", followed by a flush.

The remote protocol is implemented in "git-archive.c" for client
side and is triggered by "--remote=<repo>" option. For example,
to fetch a TAR archive in a remote repo, you can issue:

$ git archive --format=tar --remote=git://xxx/yyy/zzz.git HEAD

We choose to not make a new command "git-fetch-archive" for example,
avoind one more GIT command which should be nice for users (less
commands to remember, keeps existing --remote option).
