ef90ab66e8 pickaxe: use textconv for -S counting
We currently just look at raw blob data when using "-S" to
pickaxe. This is mostly historical, as pickaxe predates the
textconv feature. If the user has bothered to define a
textconv filter, it is more likely that their search string will be
on the textconv output, as that is what they will see in the
diff (and we do not even provide a mechanism for them to
search for binary needles that contain NUL characters).

This patch teaches "-S" to use textconv, just as we
already do for "-G".

8fa4b09fb1 pickaxe: hoist empty needle check
If we are given an empty pickaxe needle like "git log -S ''",
it is impossible for us to find anything (because no matter
what the content, the count will always be 0). We currently
check this at the lowest level of contains(). Let's hoist
the logic much earlier to has_changes(), so that it is
simpler to return our answer before loading any blob data.

b1c2f57db3 diff_grep: use textconv buffers for add/deleted files
If you use "-G" to grep a diff, we will apply a configured
textconv filter to the data before generating the diff.
However, if the diff is an addition or deletion, we do not
bother running the diff at all, and just look for the token
in the added (or removed) content. This works because we
know that the diff must contain every line of content.

However, while we used the textconv-derived buffers in the
regular diff, we accidentally passed the original unmodified
buffers to regexec when checking the added or removed
content. This could lead to an incorrect answer.

Worse, in some cases we might have a textconv buffer but no
original buffer (e.g., if we pulled the textconv data from
cache, or if we reused a working tree file when generating
it). In that case, we could actually feed NULL to regexec
and segfault.

e342acc678 Fix t9200 on case insensitive file systems
t9200 defines $CVSROOT where cvs should init its repository
$CVSROOT is set to $PWD/cvsroot.
cvs init is supposed to create the repository inside $PWD/cvsroot/CVSROOT

"cvs init" (e.g. version  1.11.23) checks if the last element of the path is
"CVSROOT", and if a directory with e.g. $PWD/cvsroot/CVSROOT already exists.

For such a $CVSROOT cvs refuses to init a repository here:
"Cannot initialize repository under existing CVSROOT:

On a case insenstive file system cvsroot and CVSROOT are the same directories
and t9200 fails.

Solution: use $PWD/tmpcvsroot instead of cvsroot $PWD/cvsroot

3174bc5ccf mailmap: avoid out-of-bounds memory access
AddressSanitizer (http://clang.llvm.org/docs/AddressSanitizer.html)
complains of a one-byte buffer underflow in parse_name_and_email() while
running the test suite. And indeed, if one of the lines in the mailmap
begins with '<', we dereference the address just before the beginning of
the buffer when looking for whitespace to remove, before checking that
we aren't going too far.

So reverse the order of the tests to make sure that we don't read
outside the buffer.

e895589883 git-config: use git_config_with_options
The git-config command has always implemented its own file
lookup and parsing order. This was necessary because its
duplicate-entry handling did not match the way git's
internal callbacks worked. Now that this is no longer the
case, we are free to reuse the existing parsing code.

This saves us a few lines of code, but most importantly, it
means that the logic for which files are examined is
contained only in one place and cannot diverge.

00b347d3aa git-config: do not complain about duplicate entries
If git-config is asked for a single value, it will complain
and exit with an error if it finds multiple instances of
that value. This is unlike the usual internal config
parsing, however, which will generally overwrite previous
values, leaving only the final one. For example:

  [set a multivar]
  $ git config user.email one@example.com
  $ git config --add user.email two@example.com

  [use the internal parser to fetch it]
  $ git var GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT
  Your Name <two@example.com> ...

  [use git-config to fetch it]
  $ git config user.email
  one@example.com
  error: More than one value for the key user.email: two@example.com

This overwriting behavior is critical for the regular
parser, which starts with the lowest-priority file (e.g.,
/etc/gitconfig) and proceeds to the highest-priority file
($GIT_DIR/config). Overwriting yields the highest priority
value at the end.

Git-config solves this problem by implementing its own
parsing. It goes from highest to lowest priorty, but does
not proceed to the next file if it has seen a value.

So in practice, this distinction never mattered much,
because it only triggered for values in the same file. And
there was not much point in doing that; the real value is in
overwriting values from lower-priority files.

However, this changed with the implementation of config
include files. Now we might see an include overriding a
value from the parent file, which is a sensible thing to do,
but git-config will flag as a duplication.

This patch drops the duplicate detection for git-config and
switches to a pure-overwrite model (for the single case;
--get-all can still be used if callers want to do something
more fancy).

As is shown by the modifications to the test suite, this is
a user-visible change in behavior. An alternative would be
to just change the include case, but this is much cleaner
for a few reasons:

  1. If you change the include case, then to what? If you
     just stop parsing includes after getting a value, then
     you will get a _different_ answer than the regular
     config parser (you'll get the first value instead of
     the last value). So you'd want to implement overwrite
     semantics anyway.

  2. Even though it is a change in behavior for git-config,
     it is bringing us in line with what the internal
     parsers already do.

  3. The file-order reimplementation is the only thing
     keeping us from sharing more code with the internal
     config parser, which will help keep differences to a
     minimum.

Going under the assumption that the primary purpose of
git-config is to behave identically to how git's internal
parsing works, this change can be seen as a bug-fix.

ed838e6615 t1300: style updates
The t1300 test script is quite old, and does not use our
modern techniques or styles. This patch updates it in the
following ways:

  1. Use test_cmp instead of cmp (to make failures easier to
     debug).

  2. Use test_cmp instead of 'test $(command) = expected'.
     This makes failures much easier to debug, and also
     makes sure that $(command) exits appropriately.

  3. Use test_must_fail (easier to read, and checks more
     rigorously for signal death).

  4. Write tests with the usual style of:

       test_expect_success 'test name' '
               test commands &&
	       ...
       '

     rather than one-liners, or using backslash-continuation.
     This is purely a style fixup.

There are still a few command happening outside of
test_expect invocations, but they are all innoccuous system
commands like "cat" and "cp". In an ideal world, each test
would be self sufficient and all commands would happen
inside test_expect, but it is not immediately obvious how
the grouping should work (some of the commands impact the
subsequent tests, and some of them are setting up and
modifying state that many tests depend on). This patch just
picks the low-hanging style fruit, and we can do more fixes
on top later.

7202b81ffc Fix potential hang in https handshake
It has been observed that curl_multi_timeout may return a very long
timeout value (e.g., 294 seconds and some usec) just before
curl_multi_fdset returns no file descriptors for reading.  The
upshot is that select() will hang for a long time -- long enough for
an https handshake to be dropped.  The observed behavior is that
the git command will hang at the terminal and never transfer any
data.

This patch is a workaround for a probable bug in libcurl.  The bug
only seems to manifest around a very specific set of circumstances:

- curl version (from curl/curlver.h):

 #define LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM 0x071307

- git-remote-https running on an ubuntu-lucid VM.
- Connecting through squid proxy running on another VM.

Interestingly, the problem doesn't manifest if a host connects
through squid proxy running on localhost; only if the proxy is on
a separate VM (not sure if the squid host needs to be on a separate
physical machine).  That would seem to suggest that this issue
is timing-sensitive.

This patch is more or less in line with a recommendation in the
curl docs about how to behave when curl_multi_fdset doesn't return
and file descriptors:

c3a47ca9a7 tree-walk: use enum interesting instead of integer
Commit d688cf0 (tree_entry_interesting(): give meaningful names to
return values - 2011-10-24) converts most of the tree_entry_interesting
values to the new enum, except "never_interesting". This completes the
conversion.

e422c0cf1c Documentation: decribe format-patch --notes
Even though I coded this, I am not sure what use scenarios would benefit
from this option, so the description is unnecessarily negative at this
moment. People who do want to use this feature need to come up with a
more plausible use case and replace it.

3c730fab2c filter-branch: use git-sh-setup's ident parsing functions
This saves us some code, but it also reduces the number of
processes we start for each filtered commit. Since we can
parse both author and committer in the same sed invocation,
we save one process. And since the new interface avoids tr,
we save 4 processes.

It also avoids using "tr", which has had some odd
portability problems reported with from Solaris's xpg6
version.

We also tweak one of the tests in t7003 to double-check that
we are properly exporting the variables (because test-lib.sh
exports GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, it will be automatically exported
in subprograms. We override this to make sure that
filter-branch handles it properly itself).

ce80ca566a git-sh-setup: refactor ident-parsing functions
The only ident-parsing function we currently provide is
get_author_ident_from_commit. This is not very
flexible for two reasons:

  1. It takes a commit as an argument, and can't read from
     commit headers saved on disk.

  2. It will only parse authors, not committers.

This patch provides a more flexible interface which will
parse multiple idents from a commit provide on stdin. We can
easily use it as a building block for the current function
to retain compatibility.
