The deflate loop in bulk-checkin::stream_to_pack expects to get all bytes
from a file that it requests to read in a single function call. But it
used xread(), which does not give that guarantee. Replace it by
read_in_full().

Checking out 2GB or more through an external filter (see test) fails
on Mac OS X 10.8.4 (12E55) for a 64-bit executable with:
error: read from external filter cat failed
error: cannot feed the input to external filter cat
error: cat died of signal 13
error: external filter cat failed 141
error: external filter cat failed
The reason is that read() immediately returns with EINVAL when asked
to read more than 2GB. According to POSIX [1], if the value of
nbyte passed to read() is greater than SSIZE_MAX, the result is
implementation-defined. The write function has the same restriction
[2]. Since OS X still supports running 32-bit executables, the
32-bit limit (SSIZE_MAX = INT_MAX = 2GB - 1) seems to be also
imposed on 64-bit executables under certain conditions. For write,
the problem has been addressed earlier [6c642a].
Address the problem for read() and write() differently, by limiting
size of IO chunks unconditionally on all platforms in xread() and
xwrite(). Large chunks only cause problems, like causing latencies
when killing the process, even if OS X was not buggy. Doing IO in
reasonably sized smaller chunks should have no negative impact on
performance.
The compat wrapper clipped_write() introduced earlier [6c642a] is
not needed anymore. It will be reverted in a separate commit. The
new test catches read and write problems.
Note that 'git add' exits with 0 even if it prints filtering errors
to stderr. The test, therefore, checks stderr. 'git add' should
probably be changed (sometime in another commit) to exit with
nonzero if filtering fails. The test could then be changed to use
test_must_fail.

Git fails due to a segmentation fault if a submodule path is empty.
Here is an example .gitmodules that will cause a segmentation fault:
[submodule "foo-module"]
path
url = http://host/repo.git
$ git status
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This is because the parsing of "submodule.*.path" is not prepared to
see a value-less "true" and assumes that the value is always
non-NULL (parsing of "ignore" has the same problem).
Fix it by checking the NULL-ness of value and complain with
config_error_nonbool().

"ls-files -o" and "ls-files -k" both traverse the working tree down
to find either all untracked paths or those that will be "killed"
(removed from the working tree to make room) when the paths recorded
in the index are checked out. It is necessary to traverse the
working tree fully when enumerating all the "other" paths, but when
we are only interested in "killed" paths, we can take advantage of
the fact that paths that do not overlap with entries in the index
can never be killed.
The treat_one_path() helper function, which is called during the
recursive traversal, is the ideal place to implement an
optimization.
When we are looking at a directory P in the working tree, there are
three cases:
(1) P exists in the index. Everything inside the directory P in
the working tree needs to go when P is checked out from the
index.
(2) P does not exist in the index, but there is P/Q in the index.
We know P will stay a directory when we check out the contents
of the index, but we do not know yet if there is a directory
P/Q in the working tree to be killed, so we need to recurse.
(3) P does not exist in the index, and there is no P/Q in the index
to require P to be a directory, either. Only in this case, we
know that everything inside P will not be killed without
recursing.
Note that this helper is called by treat_leading_path() that decides
if we need to traverse only subdirectories of a single common
leading directory, which is essential for this optimization to be
correct. This caller checks each level of the leading path
component from shallower directory to deeper ones, and that is what
allows us to only check if the path appears in the index. If the
call to treat_one_path() weren't there, given a path P/Q/R, the real
traversal may start from directory P/Q/R, even when the index
records P as a regular file, and we would end up having to check if
any leading subpath in P/Q/R, e.g. P, appears in the index.

These codepaths always start from the_index and use index_*
functions, but there is no reason to do so. Use the compatibility

else.

This reverts commit cdfd94837b, as it
does not just apply to "@" (and forms with modifiers like @{u}
applied to it), but also affects e.g. "refs/heads/@/foo", which it
shouldn't.
The basic idea of giving a short-hand might be good, and the topic
can be retried later, but let's revert to avoid affecting existing
use cases for now for the upcoming release.
This reverts commit a73653130e, as it
has been reported that "ls-files --killed" is too time-consuming in
a deep directory with too many untracked crufts (e.g. $HOME/.git
tracking only a few files).
We'd need to revisit it later but "ls-files --killed" needs to be
optimized before it happens.
A handful of past contributors are recorded with multiple e-mail

Update the found ones with their currently preferred address, and
use the last known address to consolidate contributions by the lost

path names given for a test step. The correct path is
nested1/nested2/.git, but nested1/nested1/nested2/.git is
given instead. The typo is hidden because this line also
accidentally omits the && chain operator. The omitted chain
also means the return values of all the previous commands in
this test are also being ignored.

A Git-aware "connect" transport allows the "transport_take_over" to
redirect generic transport requests like fetch(), push_refs() and
get_refs_list() to the native Git transport handling methods. The
take-over process replaces transport->data with a fake data that
these method implementations understand.
While this hack works OK for a single request, it breaks when the
transport needs to make more than one requests. transport->data
that used to hold necessary information for the specific helper to
work correctly is destroyed during the take-over process.
One codepath that this matters is "git fetch" in auto-follow mode;
when it does not get all the tags that ought to point at the history
it got (which can be determined by looking at the peeled tags in the
initial advertisement) from the primary transfer, it internally
makes a second request to complete the fetch. Because "take-over"
hack has already destroyed the data necessary to talk to the
transport helper by the time this happens, the second request cannot
make a request to the helper to make another connection to fetch
these additional tags.
Mark such a transport as "cannot_reuse", and use a separate
transport to perform the backfill fetch in order to work around
this breakage.
Note that this problem does not manifest itself when running t5802,
because our upload-pack gives you all the necessary auto-followed
tags during the primary transfer. You would need to step through
"git fetch" in a debugger, stop immediately after the primary
transfer finishes and writes these auto-followed tags, remove the
tag references and repack/prune the repository to convince the
"find-non-local-tags" procedure that the primary transfer failed to
give us all the necessary tags, and then let it continue, in order
to trigger the bug in the secondary transfer this patch fixes.

Usually the upload-pack process running on the other side will give
us all the reachable tags we need during the primary object transfer
in do_fetch(). If that does not happen (e.g. the other side may be
running a third-party implementation of upload-pack), we will run
another fetch to pick up leftover tags that we know point at the
commits reachable from our updated tips.
Separate out the code to run this second fetch into a helper
function.

This is an attempt to reproduce a problem reported for a third-party
custom "connect" remote helper. The conjecture is that sometimes
"git fetch" wants to make two connections (one for the primary
transfer with 'follow-tags' option set, and then after noticing that
some tags are not packed because the primary transfer did not have
to send any commit that is pointed by them, another to explicitly
ask for the missing tags), and their "connect" helper is not called
in the second request, breaking the "fetch" as a whole.
Unfortunately this test script does not trigger the alleged failure
and happily passes when talking to upload-pack from git-core (see
patch 5/5 for details).

Some implementations of 'echo' (e.g. dash's built-in) interpret
backslash sequences in their arguments.
This triggered at least one bug: the error message of "rebase -i" was
turning \t in commit messages into actual tabulations. There may be
others.
Using "printf '%s\n'" instead avoids this bad behavior, and is the form
used by the "say" function.
