Without the "-k" option, mailinfo will convert a folded
subject header like:
Subject: this is a
subject that doesn't
fit on one line
into a single line. With "-k", however, we assumed that
these newlines were significant and represented something
that the sending side would want us to preserve.
For messages created by format-patch, this assumption was
broken by a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines,
2011-02-23). For messages sent by arbitrary MUAs, this was
probably never a good assumption to make, as they may have
been folding subjects in accordance with rfc822's line
length recommendations all along.
This patch now joins folded lines with a single whitespace
character. This treats header folding purely as a syntactic
feature of the transport mechanism, not as something that
format-patch is trying to tell us about the original
subject.

Commit a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines,
2011-02-23) changed format-patch's behavior with respect to
long header lines, but made no accompanying changes to the
receiving side. It was thought that "git am" would handle
these folded subjects fine, but there is a regression when
using "am -k".
Let's add a test documenting this. While we're at it, let's
give more complete test coverage to document what should be
happening in each case. We test three types of subjects:
a short one, one long enough to require wrapping, and a
multiline subject. For each, we test these three
combinations:
format-patch | am
format-patch -k | am
format-patch -k | am -k
We don't bother testing "format-patch | am -k", which is
nonsense (you will be adding in [PATCH] cruft to each
subject).
This reveals the regression above (long subjects have
linebreaks introduced via "format-patch -k | am -k"),
as well as an existing non-optimal behavior (multiline
subjects are not preserved using "-k").

The read_in_full function repeatedly calls read() to fill a
buffer. If the first read() returns an error, we notify the
caller by returning the error. However, if we read some data
and then get an error on a subsequent read, we simply return
the amount of data that we did read, and the caller is
unaware of the error.
This makes the tradeoff that seeing the partial data is more
important than the fact that an error occurred. In practice,
this is generally not the case; we care more if an error
occurred, and should throw away any partial data.
I audited the current callers. In most cases, this will make
no difference at all, as they do:
if (read_in_full(fd, buf, size) != size)
error("short read");
However, it will help in a few cases:
1. In sha1_file.c:index_stream, we would fail to notice
errors in the incoming stream.
2. When reading symbolic refs in resolve_ref, we would
fail to notice errors and potentially use a truncated
ref name.
3. In various places, we will get much better error
messages. For example, callers of safe_read would
erroneously print "the remote end hung up unexpectedly"
instead of showing the read error.

Commit 13fc2c1 (remote: disallow some nonsensical option
combinations, 2011-03-30) made it impossible to use "remote
add -t foo --mirror". The argument was that specifying
specific branches is useless because:
1. Push mirrors do not want a refspec at all.
2. The point of fetch mirroring is to use a broad refspec
like "refs/*", but using "-t" overrides that.
Point (1) is valid; "-t" with push mirrors is useless. But
point (2) ignored another side effect of using --mirror: it
fetches the refs directly into the refs/ namespace as they
are found upstream, instead of placing them in a
separate-remote layout.
So 13fc2c1 was overly constrictive, and disallowed
reasonable specific-branch mirroring, like:
git remote add -t heads/foo -t heads/bar --mirror=fetch
which makes the local "foo" and "bar" branches direct
mirrors of the remote, but does not fetch anything else.
This patch restores the original behavior, but only for
fetch mirrors.

Otherwise, a negative error return becomes a very large read
value. We catch this in practice because we compare the
expected and actual numbers of bytes (and you are not likely
to be reading (size_t)-1 bytes), but this makes the
correctness a little more obvious.

Somebody tried to compile fnmatch.c compatibility file on Interix and got
an error because no header included in the file on that platform defined
NULL. It usually comes from stddef.h and indirectly from other headers
like string.h, unistd.h, stdio.h, stdlib.h, etc., but with the way we
compile this file from our Makefile, inclusion of the header files that
are expected to define NULL in fnmatch.c do not happen because they are
protected with "#ifdef STDC_HEADERS", etc. which we do not pass.
As the least-impact workaround, give a fall-back definition when none of
the headers define NULL.

The option can be used to check if read-tree with the same set of other

the index or the working tree.
The relevant tests in the t10?? range were extended to do a read-tree -n
before the real read-tree to make sure neither the index nor any local
files were changed with -n and the same exit code as without -n is
returned. The helper functions added for that purpose reside in the new
t/lib-read-tree.sh file.
The only exception is #13 in t1004 ("unlinking an un-unlink-able
symlink"). As this is an issue of wrong directory permissions it is not

Until now there was no way to test if unpack_trees() with update=1 would
succeed without really updating the work tree. The reason for that is that
setting update to 0 does skip the tests for new files and deactivates the
sparse handling, thereby making that unsuitable as a dry run.
Add the new dry_run flag to struct unpack_trees_options unpack_trees().
Setting that together with the update flag will check if the work tree
update would be successful without doing it for real.
The only class of problems that is not detected at the moment are file
system conditions like ENOSPC or missing permissions. Also the index
entries of updated files are not as they would be after a real checkout
because lstat() isn't run as the files aren't updated for real.

This function was introduced in 5b16360 (pretty: Initialize notes if %N is
used, 2010-04-13) to check what kind of information the "log --format=..."
user format string wants. The function can be passed a NULL instead of a
format string to ask it to check user_format variable kept by an earlier
call to save_user_format().
But it unconditionally checked user_format and not the string it was
given. The only caller introduced by the change passes NULL, which
kept the bug unnoticed, until a new GCC noticed that there is an
assignment to fmt that is never used.

The handle_options() function advances the base of the argument array and
returns the number of arguments it used. The caller in handle_alias()
wants to reallocate the argv array it passes to this function, and
attempts to do so by subtracting the returned value to compensate for the
change handle_options() makes to the new_argv.
But handle_options() did not correctly count when "-c <config=value>" is
given, causing a wrong pointer to be passed to realloc().
Fix it by saving the original argv at the beginning of handle_options(),
and return the difference between the final value of argv, which will
relieve the places that move the array pointer from the additional burden
of keeping track of "handled" counter.

Previously we parsed GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS lazily into a
linked list, and then checked that list during future
invocations of git_config. However, that ignores the fact
that the environment variable could change during our run
(e.g., because we parse more "-c" as part of an alias).
Instead, let's just re-parse the environment variable each
time. It's generally not very big, and it's no more work
than parsing the config files, anyway.
As a bonus, we can ditch all of the linked list storage code
entirely, making the code much simpler.
The test unfortunately still does not pass because of an
unrelated bug in handle_options.
