Before reading a config file, we check "!access(path, R_OK)"
to make sure that the file exists and is readable. If it's
not, then we silently ignore it.
For the case of ENOENT, this is fine, as the presence of the
file is optional. For other cases, though, it may indicate a
configuration error (e.g., not having permissions to read
the file). Let's print a warning in these cases to let the

Commit ff5effdf taught both clients and servers of the git protocol
to send an "agent" capability that just advertises their version for
statistics and debugging purposes. The protocol-capabilities.txt
document however indicates that the client's advertisement is
actually a response, and should never include capabilities not
mentioned in the server's advertisement.
Adding the unconditional advertisement in the server programs was
OK, then, but the clients broke the protocol. The server
implementation of git-core itself does not care, but at least one
does: the Google Code git server (or any server using Dulwich), will
hang up with an internal error upon seeing an unknown capability.
Instead, each client must record whether we saw an agent string from
the server, and respond with its agent only if the server mentioned
it first.

If we have capabilities to send to the server, we send the
regular "want" line followed by a NUL, then the
capabilities; otherwise, we do not even send the NUL.
However, when checking whether we want to send the "quiet"
capability, we check args->quiet, which is wrong. That flag
only tells us whether the client side wanted to be quiet,
not whether the server supports it (originally, in c207e34f,
it meant both; however, that was later split into two flags
by 01fdc21f).
We still check the right flag when actually printing
"quiet", so this could only have two effects:
1. We might send the trailing NUL when we do not otherwise
need to. In theory, an antique pre-capability
implementation of git might choke on this (since the
client is instructed never to respond with capabilities
that the server has not first advertised).
2. We might also want to send the quiet flag if the
args->progress flag is false, but this code path would
not trigger in that instance.
In practice, it almost certainly never matters. The
report-status capability dates back to 2005. Any real-world
server is going to advertise that, and we will always
respond with at least that capability.

"git prune" reports removal of loose object files that are no longer

removal of temporary files that are no longer needed.
The original thinking was that the presence of a leftover temporary

failure of some sort, and the user may want to be reminded of it.
Removing an unnecessary loose object file, on the other hand, is
just part of the normal operation. That is why the former is always

Instead of having the client advertise a particular version
number in the git protocol, we have managed extensions and
backwards compatibility by having clients and servers
advertise capabilities that they support. This is far more
robust than having each side consult a table of
known versions, and provides sufficient information for the
protocol interaction to complete.
However, it does not allow servers to keep statistics on
which client versions are being used. This information is
not necessary to complete the network request (the
capabilities provide enough information for that), but it
may be helpful to conduct a general survey of client
versions in use.
We already send the client version in the user-agent header
for http requests; adding it here allows us to gather
similar statistics for non-http requests.

The diff code represents paths using the diff_filespec
struct. This struct has a sha1 to represent the sha1 of the
content at that path, as well as a sha1_valid member which
indicates whether its sha1 field is actually useful. If
sha1_valid is not true, then the filespec represents a
working tree file (e.g., for the no-index case, or for when
the index is not up-to-date).
The diff_filespec is only used internally, though. At the
interfaces to the diff subsystem, callers feed the sha1
directly, and we create a diff_filespec from it. It's at
that point that we look at the sha1 and decide whether it is
valid or not; callers may pass the null sha1 as a sentinel
value to indicate that it is not.
We should not typically see the null sha1 coming from any
other source (e.g., in the index itself, or from a tree).
However, a corrupt tree might have a null sha1, which would
cause "diff --patch" to accidentally diff the working tree
version of a file instead of treating it as a blob.
This patch extends the edges of the diff interface to accept
a "sha1_valid" flag whenever we accept a sha1, and to use
that flag when creating a filespec. In some cases, this
means passing the flag through several layers, making the
code change larger than would be desirable.
One alternative would be to simply die() upon seeing
corrupted trees with null sha1s. However, this fix more
directly addresses the problem (while bogus sha1s in a tree
are probably a bad thing, it is really the sentinel
confusion sending us down the wrong code path that is what
makes it devastating). And it means that git is more capable
of examining and debugging these corrupted trees. For
example, you can still "diff --raw" such a tree to find out
when the bogus entry was introduced; you just cannot do a
"--patch" diff (just as you could not with any other
corrupted tree, as we do not have any content to diff).

"git checkout <branchname>" to come back from a detached HEAD state
incorrectly computed reachability of the detached HEAD, resulting in
unnecessary warnings.
* jk/maint-checkout-orphan-check-fix:
checkout: don't confuse ref and object flags
When we are leaving a detached HEAD, we do a revision traversal to
check whether we are orphaning any commits, marking the commit we're
leaving as the start of the traversal, and all existing refs as
uninteresting.
Prior to commit 468224e5, we did so by calling for_each_ref, and
feeding each resulting refname to setup_revisions. Commit 468224e5
refactored this to simply mark the pending objects, saving an extra
lookup.
However, it confused the "flags" parameter to the each_ref_fn
clalback, which is about the flags we found while looking up the ref
with the object flag. Because REF_ISSYMREF ("this ref is a symbolic
ref, e.g. refs/remotes/origin/HEAD") happens to be the same bit
pattern as SEEN ("we have picked this object up from the pending
list and moved it to revs.commits list"), we incorrectly reported
that a commit previously at the detached HEAD will become
unreachable if the only ref that can reach the commit happens to be
pointed at by a symbolic ref.

Split lower bits of ce_flags field and creates a new ce_namelen

* tg/ce-namelen-field:
Strip namelen out of ce_flags into a ce_namelen field
The identity of the committer will ultimately be pulled from
the ident code by commit_tree(). However, we make an attempt
to check the author and committer identity early, before the
user has done any manual work like inputting a commit
message. That lets us abort without them having to worry
about salvaging the work from .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG.
The early check for committer ident does not use the
IDENT_STRICT flag, meaning that it would not find an empty
name field. The motivation was presumably because we did not
want to be too restrictive, as later calls might be more lax
(for example, when we create the reflog entry, we do not
care too much about a real name). However, because
commit_tree will always get a strict identity to put in the
commit object itself, there is no point in being lax only to
die later (and in fact it is harmful, because the user will
have wasted time typing their commit message).
Incidentally, this bug was masked prior to 060d4bb, as the
initial loose call would taint the later strict call. So the
commit would succeed (albeit with a bogus committer line in
the commit object), and nobody noticed that our early check
did not match the later one.

When the unpack_data function is given a consume() callback,
it unpacks only 64K of the input at a time, feeding it to
git_inflate along with a 64K output buffer. However,
because we are inflating, there is a good chance that the
output buffer will fill before consuming all of the input.
In this case, we need to loop on git_inflate until we have
fed the whole input buffer, feeding each chunk of output to
the consume buffer.
The current code does not do this, and as a result, will
fail the loop condition and trigger a fatal "serious inflate
inconsistency" error in this case.
While we're rearranging the loop, let's get rid of the
extra last_out pointer. It is meant to point to the
beginning of the buffer that we feed to git_inflate, but in
practice this is always the beginning of our same 64K
buffer, because:
1. At the beginning of the loop, we are feeding the
buffer.
2. At the end of the loop, if we are using a consume()
function, we reset git_inflate's pointer to the
beginning of the buffer. If we are not using a
consume() function, then we do not care about the value
of last_out at all.

The original version of the git-clone just used mkdir(1) to create
the working directories. The version rewritten in C creates all
directories inside the working tree by using the mode argument of
0777 when calling mkdir(2) to let the umask take effect.
But the top-level directory of the working tree is created by
passing the mode argument of 0755 to mkdir(2), which results in an
overly tight restriction if the user wants to make directories group
writable with a looser umask like 002.

Mac OS X mangles file names containing unicode on file systems HFS+,
VFAT or SAMBA. When a file using unicode code points outside ASCII
is created on a HFS+ drive, the file name is converted into
decomposed unicode and written to disk. No conversion is done if
the file name is already decomposed unicode.
Calling open("\xc3\x84", ...) with a precomposed "Ä" yields the same
result as open("\x41\xcc\x88",...) with a decomposed "Ä".
As a consequence, readdir() returns the file names in decomposed
unicode, even if the user expects precomposed unicode. Unlike on
HFS+, Mac OS X stores files on a VFAT drive (e.g. an USB drive) in
precomposed unicode, but readdir() still returns file names in
decomposed unicode. When a git repository is stored on a network
share using SAMBA, file names are send over the wire and written to
disk on the remote system in precomposed unicode, but Mac OS X
readdir() returns decomposed unicode to be compatible with its
behaviour on HFS+ and VFAT.
The unicode decomposition causes many problems:
- The names "git add" and other commands get from the end user may
often be precomposed form (the decomposed form is not easily input
from the keyboard), but when the commands read from the filesystem
to see what it is going to update the index with already is on the
filesystem, readdir() will give decomposed form, which is different.
- Similarly "git log", "git mv" and all other commands that need to
compare pathnames found on the command line (often but not always
precomposed form; a command line input resulting from globbing may
be in decomposed) with pathnames found in the tree objects (should
be precomposed form to be compatible with other systems and for
consistency in general).
- The same for names stored in the index, which should be
precomposed, that may need to be compared with the names read from
readdir().
NFS mounted from Linux is fully transparent and does not suffer from
the above.
As Mac OS X treats precomposed and decomposed file names as equal,
we can
- wrap readdir() on Mac OS X to return the precomposed form, and
- normalize decomposed form given from the command line also to the
precomposed form,
to ensure that all pathnames used in Git are always in the
precomposed form. This behaviour can be requested by setting
"core.precomposedunicode" configuration variable to true.
The code in compat/precomposed_utf8.c implements basically 4 new
functions: precomposed_utf8_opendir(), precomposed_utf8_readdir(),
precomposed_utf8_closedir() and precompose_argv(). The first three
are to wrap opendir(3), readdir(3), and closedir(3) functions.
The argv[] conversion allows to use the TAB filename completion done
by the shell on command line. It tolerates other tools which use
readdir() to feed decomposed file names into git.
When creating a new git repository with "git init" or "git clone",
"core.precomposedunicode" will be set "false".
The user needs to activate this feature manually. She typically
sets core.precomposedunicode to "true" on HFS and VFAT, or file
systems mounted via SAMBA.

A path containing a space must be quoted when used as an
argument to either the copy or rename commands (because
unlike other commands, the path is not the final thing on
the line for those commands).
Commit 6280dfdc3b (fast-export: quote paths in output,
2011-08-05) previously attempted to fix fast-export's
quoting by passing all paths through quote_c_style().
However, that function does not consider the space to be a
character which requires quoting, so let's special-case the
space inside print_path(). This will cause space-containing
paths to also be quoted in other commands where such quoting
is not strictly necessary, but it does not hurt to do so.
The test from 6280dfdc3b did not detect this because, while
it does introduce renames in the export stream, it does not
actually turn on rename detection, so they were presented as
pairs of deletions/adds. Using "-M" reveals the bug.

"git ls-files --exclude=t/ -i" does not show paths in directory t/
that have been added to the index, but it should.
The excluded() API was designed for callers who walk the tree from
the top, checking each level of the directory hierarchy as it
descends if it is excluded, and not even bothering to recurse into
an excluded directory. This would allow us optimize for a common
case by not having to check if the exclude pattern "foo/" matches
when looking at "foo/bar", because the caller should have noticed
that "foo" is excluded and did not even bother to read "foo/bar"
out of opendir()/readdir() to call it.
The code for "ls-files -i" however walks the index linearly, feeding
paths without checking if the leading directory is already excluded.
Introduce a helper function path_excluded() to let this caller
properly call excluded() check for higher hierarchies as necessary.

git usually streams large blobs directly to packs. But there are cases
where git can create large loose blobs (unpack-objects or hash-object
over pipe). Or they can come from other git implementations.
core.bigfilethreshold can also be lowered down and introduce a new
wave of large loose blobs.
Use streaming interface to read/compress/write these blobs in one
go. Fall back to normal way if somehow streaming interface cannot be
used.

"git grep -e '$pattern'", unlike the case where the patterns are read from
a file, did not treat individual lines in the given pattern argument as
separate regular expressions as it should.
When adding the information from a tag, put an empty line between the
message of the tag and the commented-out signature verification
information.
At least for the kernel workflow, I often end up re-formatting the message
that people send me in the tag data. In that situation, putting the tag
message and the tag signature verification back-to-back then means that
normal editor "reflow parapgraph" command will get confused and think that
the signature is a continuation of the last message paragraph.
So I always end up having to first add an empty line, and then go back and
reflow the last paragraph. Let's just do it in git directly.
The extra vertical space also makes the verification visually stand out
more from the user-supplied message, so it looks a bit more readable to me
too, but that may be just an odd personal preference.

We can ask git_committer_info to be strict about coming up
with an email, which will die automatically on a poorly
configured machine. This is better than letting invalid
message-ids into the wild.
