3ef408aefe gitweb: No difftree output for trivial merge
In 'commitdiff' view, for the merge commit, there is an extra header
for the difftree table, with links to commitdiffs to individual
parents.  Do not show such header when there is nothing to show, for
trivial merges.

This means that for trivial merge you have to go to 'commit' view
to get links to diffs to each parent.

711fa74266 gitweb: Remove parse_from_to_diffinfo code from git_patchset_body
In commit 90921740bd
  "gitweb: Split git_patchset_body into separate subroutines"
a part of git_patchset_body code was separated into parse_from_to_diffinfo
subroutine.  But instead of replacing the separated code by the call to
mentioned subroutine, the call to subroutine was placed before the separated
code.  This patch removes parse_from_to_diffinfo code from git_patchset_body
subroutine.

d08af0ad74 git-merge: add support for --commit and --no-squash
These options can be used to override --no-commit and --squash, which is
needed since --no-commit and --squash now can be specified as default merge
options in $GIT_DIR/config.

The change also introduces slightly different behavior for --no-commit:
when specified, it explicitly overrides --squash. Earlier,
'git merge --squash --no-commit' would result in a squashed merge (i.e. no
$GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD was created) but with this patch the command will
behave as if --squash hadn't been specified.

Note: Options containing whitespace will _not_ be handled correctly. Luckily,

822f7c7349 Supplant the "while case ... break ;; esac" idiom
A lot of shell scripts contained stuff starting with

	while case "$#" in 0) break ;; esac

and similar.  I consider breaking out of the condition instead of the
body od the loop ugly, and the implied "true" value of the
non-matching case is not really obvious to humans at first glance.  It
happens not to be obvious to some BSD shells, either, but that's
because they are not POSIX-compliant.  In most cases, this has been
replaced by a straight condition using "test".  "case" has the
advantage of being faster than "test" on vintage shells where "test"
is not a builtin.  Since none of them is likely to run the git
scripts, anyway, the added readability should be worth the change.

A few loops have had their termination condition expressed
differently.

ffab62681c git-svn: handle changed svn command-line syntax
Previously, if you passed a revision and a path to svn cp, it meant to look
back at that revision and select that path.  New behaviour is to get the
path then go back to the revision (like other commands that accept @REV
or -rREV do).  The more consistent syntax is not supported by the old
tools, so we have to try both in turn.

663af3422a Full rework of quote_c_style and write_name_quoted.
* quote_c_style works on a strbuf instead of a wild buffer.
* quote_c_style is now clever enough to not add double quotes if not needed.

* write_name_quoted inherits those advantages, but also take a different
  set of arguments. Now instead of asking for quotes or not, you pass a
  "terminator". If it's \0 then we assume you don't want to escape, else C
  escaping is performed. In any case, the terminator is also appended to the
  stream. It also no longer takes the prefix/prefix_len arguments, as it's
  seldomly used, and makes some optimizations harder.

* write_name_quotedpfx is created to work like write_name_quoted and take
  the prefix/prefix_len arguments.

Thanks to those API changes, diff.c has somehow lost weight, thanks to the
removal of functions that were wrappers around the old write_name_quoted
trying to give it a semantics like the new one, but performing a lot of
allocations for this goal. Now we always write directly to the stream, no
intermediate allocation is performed.

As a side effect of the refactor in builtin-apply.c, the length of the bar
graphs in diffstats are not affected anymore by the fact that the path was
clipped.

7fb1011e61 Rework unquote_c_style to work on a strbuf.
If the gain is not obvious in the diffstat, the resulting code is more
readable, _and_ in checkout-index/update-index we now reuse the same buffer
to unquote strings instead of always freeing/mallocing.

This also is more coherent with the next patch that reworks quoting
functions.

The quoting function is also made more efficient scanning for backslashes
and treating portions of strings without a backslash at once.

50ab5fd3fc Ensure builtin-fetch honors {fetch,transfer}.unpackLimit
The only way to configure the unpacking limit is currently through
the .git/config (or ~/.gitconfig) mechanism as we have no existing
command line option interface to control this threshold on a per
invocation basis.  This was intentional by design as the storage
policy of the repository should be a repository-wide decision and
should not be subject to variations made on individual command
executions.

Earlier builtin-fetch was bypassing the unpacking limit chosen by
the user through the configuration file as it did not reread the
configuration options through fetch_pack_config if we called the
internal fetch_pack() API directly.  We now ensure we always run the
config file through fetch_pack_config at least once in this process,
thereby setting our unpackLimit properly.

fa74052922 Always obtain fetch-pack arguments from struct fetch_pack_args
Copying the arguments from a fetch_pack_args into static globals
within the builtin-fetch-pack module is error-prone and may lead
rise to cases where arguments supplied via the struct from the
new fetch_pack() API may not be honored by the implementation.

Here we reorganize all of the static globals into a single static
struct fetch_pack_args instance and use memcpy() to move the data
from the caller supplied structure into the globals before we
execute our pack fetching implementation.  This strategy is more
robust to additions and deletions of properties.

As keep_pack is a single bit we have also introduced lock_pack to
mean not only download and store the packfile via index-pack but
also to lock it against repacking by creating a .keep file when
the packfile itself is stored.  The caller must remove the .keep
file when it is safe to do so.

824d5776c3 Refactor struct transport_ops inlined into struct transport
Aside from reducing the code by 20 lines this refactoring removes
a level of indirection when trying to access the operations of a
given transport "instance", making the code clearer and easier to
follow.

It also has the nice effect of giving us the benefits of C99 style
struct initialization (namely ".fetch = X") without requiring that
level of language support from our compiler.  We don't need to worry
about new operation methods being added as they will now be NULL'd
out automatically by the xcalloc() we use to create the new struct
transport we supply to the caller.

This pattern already exists in struct walker, so we already have
a precedent for it in Git.  We also don't really need to worry
about any sort of performance decreases that may occur as a result
of filling out 4-8 op pointers when we make a "struct transport".
The extra few CPU cycles this requires over filling in the "struct
transport_ops" is killed by the time it will take Git to actually
*use* one of those functions, as most transport operations are
going over the wire or will be copying object data locally between
two directories.

ab865e6eec Avoid printing unnecessary warnings during fetch and push
If a transport doesn't support an option we already are telling
the higher level application (fetch or push) that the option is not
valid by sending back a >0 return value from transport_set_option
so there's not a strong motivation to have the function perform the
output itself.  Instead we should let the higher level application
do the output if it is necessary.  This avoids always telling the
user that depth isn't supported on HTTP urls even when they did
not pass a --depth option to git-fetch.

If the user passes an option and the option value is invalid we now
properly die in git-fetch instead of just spitting out a message
and running anyway.  This mimics prior behavior better where
incorrect/malformed options are not accepted by the process.

85682c1903 Correct handling of branch.$name.merge in builtin-fetch
My prior bug fix for git-push titled "Don't configure remote "." to
fetch everything to itself" actually broke t5520 as we were unable
to evaluate a branch configuration of:

  [branch "copy"]
    remote = .
    merge = refs/heads/master

as remote "." did not have a "remote...fetch" configuration entry to
offer up refs/heads/master as a possible candidate available to be
fetched and merged.  In shell script git-fetch and prior to the above
mentioned commit this was hardcoded for a url of "." to be the set of
local branches.

Chasing down this bug led me to the conclusion that our prior behavior
with regards to branch.$name.merge was incorrect.  In the shell script
based git-fetch implementation we only fetched and merged a branch if
it appeared both in branch.$name.merge *and* in remote.$r.fetch, where
$r = branch.$name.remote.  In other words in the following config file:

  [remote "origin"]
    url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
    fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
  [branch "master"]
    remote = origin
    merge = refs/heads/master
  [branch "pu"]
    remote = origin
    merge = refs/heads/pu

Attempting to run `git pull` while on branch "pu" would always give
the user "Already up-to-date" as git-fetch did not fetch pu and thus
did not mark it for merge in .git/FETCH_HEAD.  The configured merge
would always be ignored and the user would be left scratching her
confused head wondering why merge did not work on "pu" but worked
fine on "master".

If we are using the "default fetch" specification for the current
branch and the current branch has a branch.$name.merge configured
we now union it with the list of refs in remote.$r.fetch.  This
way the above configuration does what the user expects it to do,
which is to fetch only "master" by default but when on "pu" to
fetch both "master" and "pu".

This uncovered some breakage in the test suite where old-style Cogito
branches (.git/branches/$r) did not fetch the branches listed in
.git/config for merging and thus did not actually merge them if the
user tried to use `git pull` on that branch.  Junio and I discussed
it on list and felt that the union approach here makes more sense to
DWIM for the end-user than silently ignoring their configured request
so the test vectors for t5515 have been updated to include for-merge
lines in .git/FETCH_HEAD where they have been configured for-merge
in .git/config.

Since we are now performing a union of the fetch specification and
the merge specification and we cannot allow a branch to be listed
twice (otherwise it comes out twice in .git/FETCH_HEAD) we need to
perform a double loop here over all of the branch.$name.merge lines
and try to set their merge flag if we have already schedule that
branch for fetching by remote.$r.fetch.  If no match is found then
we must add new specifications to fetch the branch but not store it
as no local tracking branch has been designated.

d8b3a2bf18 Don't attempt to merge non-existant remotes in t5515
This was actually reverted in 756373da by Junio.  We no longer
support merging the right hand side of a fetchspec in a branch's
branch.$name.merge configuration setting as we interpret these
names as being only those published by the remote we are going to
fetch from.

The older shell based implementation of git-fetch did not report an
error when branch.$name.merge was referencing a branch that does
not exist on the remote and we are running `git fetch` for the
current branch.  The new builtin-fetch does notice this failure
and aborts the fetch, thus breaking the tests.

Junio and I kicked it around on #git earlier today and decided that
the best approach here is to error out and tell the user that their
configuration is wrong, as this is likely more user friendly than
silently ignoring the user's request.  Since the new builtin-fetch
is already issuing the error there is no code change required, we
just need to remove the bad configuration from our test.

If we are fetching something and were configured to do a forced
fetch and have no local ref to store the fetched object into we
cannot mark the local ref as having a forced update.  Instead we
should just silently discard the + request.

f38395905b Remove more debugging from builtin-fetch
Older git-fetch.sh doesn't print "ref: X" when invoked as
`git fetch $url X" so we shouldn't do that now in the new
builtin version.

ad23603c3a Don't configure remote "." to fetch everything to itself
When we are talking about a remote URI of "." we are really talking
about *this* repository that we are fetching into or pushing out of.
There are no matching tracking branches for this repository; we
do not attempt to map a ref back to ourselves as this would either
create an infinite cycle (for example "fetch = +refs/*:refs/mine/*")
or it causes problems when we attempt to push back to ourselves.

So we really cannot setup a remote like this:

  [remote "."]
    url = .
    fetch = +refs/*:refs/*

In the case of `git push . B:T` to fast-forward branch T to B's
current commit git-send-pack will update branch T to B, assuming that
T is the remote tracking branch for B.  This update is performed
immediately before git-send-pack asks git-receive-pack to perform
the same update, and git-receive-pack then fails because T is not
where git-send-pack told it to expect T to be at.

In the case of `git fetch .` we really should do the same thing as
`git fetch $otherrepo`, that is load .git/FETCH_HEAD with the commit
of HEAD, so that `git pull .` will report "Already up-to-date".
We have always behaved like this before on this insane request and
we should at least continue to behave the same way.  With the above
(bad) remote configuration we were instead getting fetch errors
about funny refs, e.g. "refs/stash".

b3abdd9d21 Allow builtin-fetch to work on a detached HEAD
If we are running fetch in a repository that has a detached HEAD
then there is no current_branch available.  In such a case any ref
that the fetch might update by definition cannot also be the current
branch so we should always bypass the "don't update HEAD" test.

e5f4e21463 Remove unnecessary 'fetch' argument from transport_get API
We don't actually need to know at the time of transport_get if the
caller wants to fetch, push, or do both on the returned object.
It is easier to just delay the initialization of the HTTP walker
until we know we will need it by providing a CURL specific fetch
function in the curl_transport that makes sure the walker instance
is initialized before use.

be6042cfa5 Add transport.h to LIB_H as transport.o is in LIB_OBJS
Any changes to transport.h probably will require rebuilding a
number of object files so we should make sure it is included
in our set of headers.

8eb554ae62 Cleanup duplicate initialization code in transport_get
We always allocate and return a struct transport* right now as every
URL is considered to be a native Git transport if it is not rsync,
http/https/ftp or a bundle.  So we can simplify the initialization
of a new transport object by performing one xcalloc call and filling
in only the attributes required.

b6abb48a15 Don't bother passing ref log details to walker in builtin-fetch
When using the walker API within builtin-fetch we don't allow
it to update refs locally; instead that action is reserved for
builtin-fetch's own main loop once the objects have actually
been downloaded.

Passing NULL here will bypass the unnecessary malloc/free of a
string buffer within the walker API.  That buffer is never used
because the prior argument (the refs to update) is also NULL.
