At least in Linux glibc, "getaddrinfo()" has a very irritating feature (or
bug, who knows..).
Namely if you pass it in an empty string for the service name, it will
happily and quietly consider it identical to a NULL port pointer, and
return port number zero and no errors. Which obviously will not work.
Maybe that's what it's really expected to do, although the man-page for
getaddrinfo() certainly implies that it's a bug.
So when somebody passes me a "please pull" request pointing to something
like the following
git://git.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/v4l-dvb.git
(note the extraneous colon at the end of the host name), git would happily
try to connect to port 0, which would generally just cause the remote to
not even answer, and the "connect()" will take a long time to time out.
So to work around the glibc feature/bug, just notice this empty port case
automatically. Also, add the port information to the error information
when it fails to look up (maybe it's the host-name that fails, maybe it's
the port-name - we should print out both).

This mechanically converts strncmp() to use prefixcmp(), but only when
the parameters match specific patterns, so that they can be verified
easily. Leftover from this will be fixed in a separate step, including
idiotic conversions like
if (!strncmp("foo", arg, 3))
=>
if (!(-prefixcmp(arg, "foo")))
This was done by using this script in px.perl
#!/usr/bin/perl -i.bak -p
if (/strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)/ && (length($2) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)|prefixcmp($1, "$2")|;

s|strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)|(-prefixcmp($2, "$1"))|;
}
and running:
$ git grep -l strncmp -- '*.c' | xargs perl px.perl

Earlier, git_connect() returned the same fd twice or two
separate fds, depending on the way the connection was made (when
we are talking to the other end over a single socket, we used
the same fd twice, and when our end is connected to a pipepair
we used two).
This forced callers who do close() and dup() to really care
which was which, and most of the existing callers got this
wrong, although without much visible ill effect. Many were
closing the same fd twice when we are talking over a single
socket, and one was leaking a fd.
This fixes it to uniformly use two separate fds, so if somebody
wants to close only reader side can just do close() on it
without worrying about it accidentally also closing the writer
side or vice versa.

(3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h"

This allows you to say
git send-pack $URL :refs/heads/$branch
to delete the named remote branch. The refspec $src:$dst means
replace the destination ref with the object known as $src on the

mean "No object" to delete the target.

This changes the refname matching logic used to decide which ref
is updated with git-send-pack. We used to error out when
pushing 'master' when the other end has both 'master' branch and
a tracking branch 'remotes/$name/master' but with this, 'master'
matches only 'refs/heads/master' when both and no other 'master'
exist.
Pushing 'foo' when both heads/foo and tags/foo exist at the
remote end is still considered an error and you would need to
disambiguate between them by being more explicit.
When neither heads/foo nor tags/foo exists at the remote,
pushing 'foo' when there is only remotes/origin/foo is not
ambiguous, while it still is ambiguous when there are more than
one such weaker match (remotes/origin/foo and remotes/alt/foo,
for example).

When build a pack for a push we query the remote copy for existant
heads. These are used to prune unnecessary objects from the pack.
As we receive the remote references in get_remote_heads() we validate
the reference names via check_ref() which includes a length check;
rejecting those >45 characters in size.
This is a miss converted change, it was originally designed to reject
messages which were less than 45 characters in length (a 40 character
sha1 and refs/) to prevent comparing unitialised memory. check_ref()
now gets the raw length so check for at least 5 characters.

This makes git-peek-remote able to basically do everything that
git-ls-remote does (but obviously just for the native protocol, so no
http[s]: or rsync: support).
The default behaviour is the same, but you can now give a mixture of
"--refs", "--tags" and "--heads" flags, where "--refs" forces
git-peek-remote to only show real refs (ie none of the fakey tag lookups,
but also not the special pseudo-refs like HEAD and MERGE_HEAD).
The "--tags" and "--heads" flags respectively limit the output to just
regular tags and heads, of course.
You can still also ask to limit them by name too.
You can combine the flags, so
git peek-remote --refs --tags .
will show all local _true_ tags, without the generated tag lookups
(compare the output without the "--refs" flag).
And "--tags --heads" will show both tags and heads, but will avoid (for
example) any special refs outside of the standard locations.
I'm also planning on adding a "--ignore-local" flag that allows us to ask
it to ignore any refs that we already have in the local tree, but that's
an independent thing.
All this is obviously gearing up to making "git fetch" cheaper.

It was reported that under one implementation of socks client
"git clone" fails with "error: waitpid failed (No child processes)",
because "git" is spawned after setting SIGCHLD to SIG_IGN.
Arguably it may be a broken setting, but we should protect
ourselves so that we can get reliable results from waitpid() for
the children we care about.
This patch resets SIGCHLD to SIG_DFL in three places:
- connect.c::git_connect() - initiators of git native
protocol transfer are covered with this.
- daemon.c::main() - obviously.
- merge-index.c::main() - obviously.
There are other programs that do fork() but do not waitpid():
http-push, imap-send. upload-pack does not either, but in the
case of that program, each of the forked halves runs exec()
another program, so this change would not have much effect
there.

* Renames proxy configuration variables to core.gitproxy; this

;# matches www.kernel.org as well
gitproxy = netcatter for kernel.org
gitproxy = netscatter for sample.xz
gitproxy = none for mydomain.xz
gitproxy = netcatter-default
The values are command names, followed by an optional " for "
and domainname; the first tail-match of the domainname
determines which proxy command is used. An entry without "
for " matches any domain and can be used as the default.
The command name "none" is special -- it tells the mechanism
not to use any proxy command and use the native git://
connection.

Here is an updated patch that first looks for GIT_PROXY_COMMAND
in the environment and then git.proxycommand in the repository's
configuration file. I have left the calling convention the same
argv[1] is the host and argv[2] is the port.
I've taken the hostname parsing verbatim from git_tcp_connect(),
so it should now support an explicit port number and whatever
that business with the square brackets is. (Should I move this
to a helper function?)
Regarding internal vs. external hosts, the proxy command can
simply run netcat locally to internal hosts, so perhaps that is
sufficient.

GCC's format __attribute__ is good for checking errors, especially
with -Wformat=2 parameter. This fixes most of the reported problems
against 2005-08-09 snapshot.
This extends the source side semantics to match what Linus
suggested.
An example:
$ git-send-pack kernel.org:/pub/scm/git/git.git pu^^:master pu
would allow me to push the current pu into pu, and the
commit two commits before it into master, on my public
repository.
The revised rule for updating remote heads is as follows.
$ git-send-pack [--all] <remote> [<ref>...]
- When no <ref> is specified:
- with '--all', it is the same as specifying the full refs/*
path for all local refs;
- without '--all', it is the same as specifying the full
refs/* path for refs that exist on both ends;
- When one or more <ref>s are specified:
- a single token <ref> (i.e. no colon) must be a pattern that
tail-matches refs/* path for an existing local ref. It is
an error for the pattern to match no local ref, or more
than one local refs. The matching ref is pushed to the
remote end under the same name.
- <src>:<dst> can have different cases. <src> is first tried
as the tail-matching pattern for refs/* path.
- If more than one matches are found, it is an error.
- If one match is found, <dst> must either match no remote
ref and start with "refs/", or match exactly one remote
ref. That remote ref is updated with the sha1 value
obtained from the <src> sha1.
- If no match is found, it is given to get_extended_sha1();
it is an error if get_extended_sha1() does not find an
object name. If it succeeds, <dst> must either match
no remote ref and start with "refs/" or match exactly
one remote ref. That remote ref is updated with the sha1
value.
