4744b33705 Merge branch 'jc/describe'
The "--match=<pattern>" option of "git describe", when used with
"--all" to allow refs that are not annotated tags to be used as a

We may want to have a looser matching that does not restrict to tags,
but that can be done as a follow-up topic; this step is purely a bugfix.

4fa5c0591a merge-one-file: force content conflict for "both sides added" case
Historically, we tried to be lenient to "both sides added, slightly
differently" case and as long as the files can be merged using a
made-up common ancestor cleanly, since f7d24bbefb (merge with
/dev/null as base, instead of punting O==empty case, 2005-11-07).

This was later further refined to use a better made-up common file
with fd66dbf529 (merge-one-file: use empty- or common-base
condintionally in two-stage merge., 2005-11-10), but the spirit has
been the same.

But the original fix in f7d24bbefb to avoid punting on "both sides
added" case had a code to unconditionally error out the merge.  When
this triggers, even though the content-level merge can be done
cleanly, we end up not saying "content conflict" in the message, but
still issue the error message, showing "ERROR: in <pathname>".

Move that "always fail for add/add conflict" logic a bit higher to
fix this.

530333cfe8 merge-one-file: remove stale comment
The "funny filename" comment was from b539c5e8fb (git-merge-one:
new merge world order., 2005-12-07) where the removed code just
before that new comment ended with:

        merge "$4" "$orig" "$src2"

(yes, we used to use "merge" program from the RCS suite).  The
comment refers to one of the bad side effect the old code used to
have and warns against such a practice, i.e. it was talking about
the code that no longer existed.

d8febde370 match-trees: simplify score_trees() using tree_entry()
Convert the loop in score_trees() to tree_entry().  The code becomes
shorter and simpler because the calls to update_tree_entry() are not
needed any more.

Another benefit is that we need less variables to track the current
tree entries; as a side-effect of that the compiler has an easier
job figuring out the control flow and thus can avoid false warnings
about uninitialized variables.

Using struct name_entry also allows the use of tree_entry_len() for
finding the path length instead of strlen(), which may be slightly
more efficient.

Also unify the handling of missing entries in one of the two trees
(i.e. added or removed files): Just set cmp appropriately first, no
matter if we ran off the end of a tree or if we actually have two
entries to compare, and check its value a bit later without
duplicating the handler code.

cee683b72e t7600: use test_config to set/unset git config variables
Instead of using construct such as:
    test_when_finished "git config --unset <key>"
    git config <key> <value>
uses
    test_config <key> <value>
The latter takes care of removing <key> at the end of the test.

Tests are modified to assume default configuration at entry,
and to reset the modified configuration variables at the end.

Test 'merge log message' was relying on the presence of option `--no-ff`
in the configuration. With the option, git show -s --pretty=format:%b HEAD
produces an empty line and without the option, it produces an empty file.
The test is modified to check with and without `--no-ff` option.

fread returns the number of items read, with no special error return.

Commit 98f85ff (reflog: add for_each_reflog_ent_reverse() API -
2013-03-08) introduced a call to fread which checks for an error with
"nread < 0" which is tautological since nread is unsigned.  The correct
check in this case (which tries to read a single item) is "nread != 1".

c19d1b4e84 Fix revision walk for commits with the same dates
Logic in still_interesting function allows to stop the commits
traversing if the oldest processed commit is not older then the
youngest commit on the list to process and the list contains only
commits marked as not interesting ones. It can be premature when dealing
with a set of coequal commits. For example git rev-list A^! --not B
provides wrong answer if all commits in the range A..B had the same
commit time and there are more then 7 of them.

To fix this problem the relevant part of the logic in still_interesting
is changed to: the walk can be stopped if the oldest processed commit is
younger then the youngest commit on the list to processed.

837154978e submodule: clarify logic in show_submodule_summary
There are two uses of the "left" and "right" commit variables that
make it hard to be sure what values they have (both for the reader,
and for gcc, which wrongly complains that they might be used
uninitialized).

The function starts with a cascading if statement, checking that the
input sha1s exist, and finally working up to preparing a revision
walk. We only prepare the walk if the cascading conditional did not
find any problems, which we check by seeing whether it set the
"message" variable or not. It's simpler and more obvious to just add
a condition to the end of the cascade.

Later, we check the same "message" variable when deciding whether to
clear commit marks on the left/right commits; if it is set, we
presumably never started the walk. This is wrong, though; we might
have started the walk and munged commit flags, only to encounter an
error afterwards. We should always clear the flags on left/right if
they exist, whether the walk was successful or not.

250b3c6c99 apply --whitespace=fix: avoid running over the postimage buffer
Originally update-pre-post-images could assume that any whitespace
fixing will make the result only shorter by unexpanding runs of
leading SPs into HTs and removing trailing whitespaces at the end of
lines.  Updating the post-image we read from the patch to match the
actual result can be performed in-place under this assumption.
These days, however, we have tab-in-indent (aka Python) rule whose
result can be longer than the original, and we do need to allocate
a larger buffer than the input and replace the result.

Fortunately the support for lengthening rewrite was already added
when we began supporting "match while ignoring whitespace
differences" mode in 86c91f9179 (git apply: option to ignore
whitespace differences, 2009-08-04).  We only need to correctly
count the number of bytes necessary to hold the updated result and
tell the function to allocate a new buffer.

77c72780ed Documentation: merging a tag is a special case
When asking Git to merge a tag (such as a signed tag or annotated tag),
it will always create a merge commit even if fast-forward was possible.
It's like having --no-ff present on the command line.

It's a difference from the default behavior described in git-merge.txt.
It should be documented as an exception of "FAST-FORWARD MERGE" section

c9fc4415e2 diff.c: diff.renamelimit => diff.renameLimit in message
In the warning message printed when rename or unmodified copy
detection was skipped due to too many files, change "diff.renamelimit"
to "diff.renameLimit", in order to make it consistent with git
documentation, which consistently uses "diff.renameLimit".

b8527d5fa6 wt-status: fix possible use of uninitialized variable
In wt_status_print_change_data, we accept a change_type flag
that is meant to be either WT_STATUS_UPDATED or
WT_STATUS_CHANGED.  We then switch() on this value to set
the local variable "status" for each case, but do not
provide a fallback "default" label to the switch statement.

As a result, the compiler realizes that "status" might be
unset, and complains with a warning. To silence this
warning, we use the "int status = status" trick.  This is
correct with the current code, as all callers provide one of
the two expected change_type flags. However, it's also a
maintenance trap, as there is nothing to prevent future
callers from passing another flag, nor to document this
assumption.

Instead of using the "x = x" hack, let's handle the default
case in the switch() statement with a die("BUG"). That tells
the compiler and any readers of the code exactly what the
function's input assumptions are.

We could also convert the flag to an enum, which would
provide a compile-time check on the function input. However,
since these flags are part of a larger enum, that would make
the code unnecessarily complex (we would have to make a new
enum with just the two flags, and then convert it to the old
enum for passing to sub-functions).

3aa99df802 fast-import: clarify "inline" logic in file_change_m
When we read a fast-import line like:

  M 100644 :1 foo.c

we point the local object_entry variable "oe" to the object
named by the mark ":1". When the input uses the "inline"
construct, however, we do not have such an object_entry.

The current code is careful not to access "oe" in the inline
case, but we can make the assumption even more obvious (and
catch violations of it) by setting oe to NULL and adding a
comment. As a bonus, this also squelches an over-zealous gcc
-Wuninitialized warning, which means we can drop the "oe =
oe" initialization hack.

25043d8aea run-command: always set failed_errno in start_command
When we fail to fork, we set the failed_errno variable to
the value of errno so it is not clobbered by later syscalls.
However, we do so in a conditional, and it is hard to see
later under what conditions the variable has a valid value.

Instead of setting it only when fork fails, let's just
always set it after forking. This is more obvious for human
readers (as we are no longer setting it as a side effect of
a strerror call), and it is more obvious to gcc, which no
longer generates a spurious -Wuninitialized warning. It also
happens to match what the WIN32 half of the #ifdef does.
