We have been passing enough information to enable the

77aa93481d send-pack: fix parsing of --force-with-lease option
The last argument for parse_push_cas_option() is if it is "unset"
(i.e. --no-force-with-lease), and we are parsing the option with an
explicit value here, so it has to be 0.

d6cbf2fa7a Merge branch 'rj/cygwin-clarify-use-of-cheating-lstat'
Cygwin port added a "not quite correct but a lot faster and good
enough for many lstat() calls that are only used to see if the
working tree entity matches the index entry" lstat() emulation some
time ago, and it started biting us in places.  This removes it and
uses the standard lstat() that comes with Cygwin.

Recent topic that uses lstat on packed-refs file is broken when
this cheating lstat is used, and this is a simplest fix that is
also the cleanest direction to go in the long run.

This reverts commit c334b87b30c1464a1ab563fe1fb8de5eaf0e5bac; the
update assumed that people only used the command to read from
"rev-list --objects" output, whose lines begin with a 40-hex object
name followed by a whitespace, but it turns out that scripts feed
random extended SHA-1 expressions (e.g. "HEAD:$pathname") in which
a whitespace has to be kept.

7c3ecb3254 Don't close pack fd when free'ing pack windows
Now that close_one_pack() has been introduced to handle file
descriptor pressure, it is not strictly necessary to close the
pack file descriptor in unuse_one_window() when we're under memory
pressure.

Jeff King provided a justification for leaving the pack file open:

   If you close packfile descriptors, you can run into racy situations
   where somebody else is repacking and deleting packs, and they go away
   while you are trying to access them. If you keep a descriptor open,
   you're fine; they last to the end of the process. If you don't, then
   they disappear from under you.

   For normal object access, this isn't that big a deal; we just rescan
   the packs and retry. But if you are packing yourself (e.g., because
   you are a pack-objects started by upload-pack for a clone or fetch),
   it's much harder to recover (and we print some warnings).

Let's do so (or uh, not do so).

88d0db5557 sha1_file: introduce close_one_pack() to close packs on fd pressure
When the number of open packs exceeds pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window()
is called repeatedly to attempt to release the least-recently-used
pack windows, which, as a side-effect, will also close a pack file
after closing its last open window.  If a pack file has been opened,
but no windows have been allocated into it, it will never be selected
by unuse_one_window() and hence its file descriptor will not be
closed.  When this happens, git may exceed the number of file
descriptors permitted by the system.

This latter situation can occur in show-ref or receive-pack during ref
advertisement.  During ref advertisement, receive-pack will iterate
over every ref in the repository and advertise it to the client after
ensuring that the ref exists in the local repository.  If the ref is
located inside a pack, then the pack is opened to ensure that it
exists, but since the object is not actually read from the pack, no
mmap windows are allocated.  When the number of open packs exceeds
pack_max_fds, unuse_one_window() will not be able to find any windows to
free and will not be able to close any packs.  Once the per-process
file descriptor limit is exceeded, receive-pack will produce a warning,
not an error, for each pack it cannot open, and will then most likely
fail with an error to spawn rev-list or index-pack like:

   error: cannot create standard input pipe for rev-list: Too many open files
   error: Could not run 'git rev-list'

This may also occur during upload-pack when refs are packed (in the
packed-refs file) and the number of packs that must be opened to
verify that these packed refs exist exceeds the file descriptor
limit.  If the refs are loose, then upload-pack will read each ref
from the object database (if the object is in a pack, allocating one
or more mmap windows for it) in order to peel tags and advertise the
underlying object.  But when the refs are packed and peeled,
upload-pack will use the peeled sha1 in the packed-refs file and
will not need to read from the pack files, so no mmap windows will
be allocated and just like with receive-pack, unuse_one_window()
will never select these opened packs to close.

When we have file descriptor pressure, we just need to find an open
pack to close.  We can leave the existing mmap windows open.  If
additional windows need to be mapped into the pack file, it will be
reopened when necessary.  If the pack file has been rewritten in the
mean time, open_packed_git_1() should notice when it compares the file
size or the pack's sha1 checksum to what was previously read from the
pack index, and reject it.

Let's introduce a new function close_one_pack() designed specifically
for this purpose to search for and close the least-recently-used pack,
where LRU is defined as (in order of preference):

   * pack with oldest mtime and no allocated mmap windows
   * pack with the least-recently-used windows, i.e. the pack
     with the oldest most-recently-used window, where none of
     the windows are in use
   * pack with the least-recently-used windows

53d00b39ce log: use true parents for diff even when rewriting
When using pathspec filtering in combination with diff-based log
output, parent simplification happens before the diff is computed.
The diff is therefore against the *simplified* parents.

This works okay, arguably by accident, in the normal case:
simplification reduces to one parent as long as the commit is TREESAME
to it.  So the simplified parent of any given commit must have the
same tree contents on the filtered paths as its true (unfiltered)
parent.

However, --full-diff breaks this guarantee, and indeed gives pretty
spectacular results when comparing the output of

  git log --graph --stat ...
  git log --graph --full-diff --stat ...

(--graph internally kicks in parent simplification, much like
--parents).

To fix it, store a copy of the parent list before simplification (in a
slab) whenever --full-diff is in effect.  Then use the stored parents
instead of the simplified ones in the commit display code paths.  The
latter do not actually check for --full-diff to avoid duplicated code;
they just grab the original parents if save_parents() has not been
called for this revision walk.

For ordinary commits it should be obvious that this is the right thing
to do.

Merge commits are a bit subtle.  Observe that with default
simplification, merge simplification is an all-or-nothing decision:
either the merge is TREESAME to one parent and disappears, or it is
different from all parents and the parent list remains intact.
Redundant parents are not pruned, so the existing code also shows them
as a merge.

So if we do show a merge commit, the parent list just consists of the
rewrite result on each parent.  Running, e.g., --cc on this in
--full-diff mode is not very useful: if any commits were skipped, some
hunks will disagree with all sides of the merge (with one side,
because commits were skipped; with the others, because they didn't
have those changes in the first place).  This triggers --cc showing
these hunks spuriously.

Therefore I believe that even for merge commits it is better to show
the diffs wrt. the original parents.

836b6fb5a5 config: add generic callback wrapper to parse section.<url>.key
Existing configuration parsing functions (e.g. http_options() in
http.c) know how to parse two-level configuration variable names.
We would like to exploit them and parse something like this:

	[http]
		sslVerify = true
	[http "https://weak.example.com"]
		sslVerify = false

and pretend as if http.sslVerify were set to false when talking to
"https://weak.example.com/path".

Introduce `urlmatch_config_entry()` wrapper that:

 - is called with the target URL (e.g. "https://weak.example.com/path"),
   and the two-level variable parser (e.g. `http_options`);

 - uses `url_normalize()` and `match_urls()` to see if configuration
   data matches the target URL; and

 - calls the traditional two-level configuration variable parser
   only for the configuration data whose <url> part matches the
   target URL (and if there are multiple matches, only do so if the
   current match is a better match than the ones previously seen).

3402a8dc48 config: add helper to normalize and match URLs
Some http.* configuration variables need to take values customized
for the URL we are talking to.  We may want to set http.sslVerify to
true in general but to false only for a certain site, for example,
with a configuration file like this:

	[http]
		sslVerify = true
	[http "https://weak.example.com"]
		sslVerify = false

and let the configuration machinery pick up the latter only when
talking to "https://weak.example.com".  The latter needs to kick in
not only when the URL is exactly "https://weak.example.com", but
also is anything that "match" it, e.g.

	https://weak.example.com/test
	https://me@weak.example.com/test

The <url> in the configuration key consists of the following parts,
and is considered a match to the URL we are attempting to access
under certain conditions:

  . Scheme (e.g., `https` in `https://example.com/`). This field
    must match exactly between the config key and the URL.

  . Host/domain name (e.g., `example.com` in `https://example.com/`).
    This field must match exactly between the config key and the URL.

  . Port number (e.g., `8080` in `http://example.com:8080/`).  This
    field must match exactly between the config key and the URL.
    Omitted port numbers are automatically converted to the correct
    default for the scheme before matching.

  . Path (e.g., `repo.git` in `https://example.com/repo.git`). The
    path field of the config key must match the path field of the
    URL either exactly or as a prefix of slash-delimited path
    elements.  A config key with path `foo/` matches URL path
    `foo/bar`.  A prefix can only match on a slash (`/`) boundary.
    Longer matches take precedence (so a config key with path
    `foo/bar` is a better match to URL path `foo/bar` than a config
    key with just path `foo/`).

  . User name (e.g., `me` in `https://me@example.com/repo.git`). If
    the config key has a user name, it must match the user name in
    the URL exactly. If the config key does not have a user name,
    that config key will match a URL with any user name (including
    none), but at a lower precedence than a config key with a user
    name.

Longer matches take precedence over shorter matches.

This step adds two helper functions `url_normalize()` and
`match_urls()` to help implement the above semantics. The
normalization rules are based on RFC 3986 and should result in any
two equivalent urls being a match.

a88c915de9 mv: move submodules using a gitfile
When moving a submodule which uses a gitfile to point to the git directory
stored in .git/modules/<name> of the superproject two changes must be made
to make the submodule work: the .git file and the core.worktree setting
must be adjusted to point from work tree to git directory and back.

Achieve that by remembering which submodule uses a gitfile by storing the
result of read_gitfile() of each submodule. If that is not NULL the new
function connect_work_tree_and_git_dir() is called after renaming the
submodule's work tree which updates the two settings to the new values.

Extend the man page to inform the user about that feature (and while at it
change the description to not talk about a script anymore, as mv is a
builtin for quite some time now).

1150246828 mv: move submodules together with their work trees
Currently the attempt to use "git mv" on a submodule errors out with:

  fatal: source directory is empty, source=<src>, destination=<dest>

The reason is that mv searches for the submodule with a trailing slash in
the index, which it doesn't find (because it is stored without a trailing
slash). As it doesn't find any index entries inside the submodule it
claims the directory would be empty even though it isn't.

Fix that by searching for the name without a trailing slash and continue
if it is a submodule. Then rename() will move the submodule work tree just
like it moves a file.

09c5ae5a50 editor: use canonicalized absolute path
By improving the relative_path() algorithm, e02ca72 (path.c:
refactor relative_path(), not only strip prefix, 2013-06-25)
uncovered a latent bug in Emacs.  While most editor applications
like cat and vim handle non-canonicalized relative paths fine, emacs
does not.  This is due to a long-standing bug in emacs, where it
refuses to resolve symlinks in the supplied path:

  #!/bin/sh
  cd /tmp
  mkdir z z/a z/b
  echo moodle >z/a/file
  ln -s z/b

  emacs ../a/file # fail: attempts to open /tmp/a/file

Even if emacs were to be patched to fix this bug, it may be nicer to
help users running older versions.

Note that this can potentially regress for users of all editors,
when they ask "what file am I editing?" to the editor, as it is
likely to answer with an unsightly long full path.

19c3c5fdcb Avoid using echo -n anywhere
`echo -n` is non-portable. The POSIX specification says:

    Conforming applications that wish to do prompting without <newline>
    characters or that could possibly be expecting to echo a -n, should
    use the printf utility derived from the Ninth Edition system.

Since all of the affected shell scripts use a POSIX shell shebang,
replace `echo -n` invocations with printf.

d7a1d629c3 commit-slab.h: Fix memory allocation and addressing
The slab initialization code includes the calculation of the
slab 'elem_size', which is in turn used to determine the size
(capacity) of the slab. Each element of the slab represents an
array, of length 'stride', of 'elemtype'. (Note that it may be
clearer if the define_commit_slab macro parameter was called
'basetype' rather than 'elemtype'). However, the 'elem_size'
calculation incorrectly uses 'sizeof(struct slabname)' in the
expression, rather than 'sizeof(elemtype)'.

Within the slab access routine, <slabname>_at(), the given commit
'index' is transformed into an (slab#, slot#) pair used to address
the required element (a pointer to the first element of the array
of 'elemtype' associated with that commit). The current code to
calculate these address coordinates multiplies the commit index
by the 'stride' which, at least for the slab#, produces the wrong
result. Using the commit index directly, without scaling by the
'stride', produces the correct 'logical' address.

Also, when allocating a new slab, the size of the allocation only
allows for a slab containing elements of single element arrays of
'elemtype'. This should allow for elements of an array of length
'stride' of 'elemtype'. In order to fix this, we need to change
the element size parameter to xcalloc() by multiplying the current
element size (sizeof(**s->slab)) by the s->stride.

Having changed the calculation of the slot#, we now need to convert
the logical 'nth_slot', by scaling with s->stride, into the correct
physical address.

c17592a7a2 commit: tweak empty cherry pick advice for sequencer
When we refuse to make an empty commit, we check whether we
are in a cherry-pick in order to give better advice on how
to proceed. We instruct the user to repeat the commit with
"--allow-empty" to force the commit, or to use "git reset"
to skip it and abort the cherry-pick.

In the case of a single cherry-pick, the distinction between
skipping and aborting is not important, as there is no more
work to be done afterwards.  When we are using the sequencer
to cherry pick a series of commits, though, the instruction
is confusing: does it skip this commit, or does it abort the
rest of the cherry-pick?

It does skip, after which the user can continue the
cherry-pick. This is the right thing to be advising the user
to do, but let's make it more clear what will happen, both
by using the word "skip", and by mentioning that the rest of
the sequence can be continued via "cherry-pick --continue"
(whether we skip or take the commit).

5ff0c0e875 config doc: quote paths, fixing tilde-interpretation
The --global section of git-config(1) currently reads like:

  For writing options: write to global /.gitconfig file rather than the
                                       ^
				       start tilde

  repository .git/config, write to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config file if
  this file exists and the/.gitconfig file doesn’t.
                          ^
			  end tilde

Instead of tilde (~) being interpreted literally, asciidoc subscripts
the text between the two tildes.  To fix this problem, use backticks (`)
to quote all the paths in the file uniformly, just like config.txt does.
