70495b556f Documentation/git-push.txt: explain better cases where --force is dangerous
The behavior of "git push --force" is rather clear when it updates only
one remote ref, but running it when pushing several branches can really
be dangerous. Warn the users a bit more and give them the alternative to
push only one branch.

296f0b3ea9 t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: configure an MPM module for apache 2.4
Versions of Apache before 2.4 always had a "MultiProcessing
Module" (MPM) statically built in, which manages the worker
threads/processes. We do not care which one, as it is
largely a performance issue, and we put only a light load on
the server during our testing.

As of Apache 2.4, the MPM module is loadable just like any
other module, but exactly one such module must be loaded. On
a system where the MPMs are compiled dynamically (e.g.,
Debian unstable), this means that our test Apache server
will not start unless we provide the appropriate
configuration.

Unfortunately, we do not actually know which MPM modules are
available or appropriate for the system on which the tests
are running. This patch picks the "prefork" module, as it
is likely to be available on all Unix-like systems.

bb3f7ccadb t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: load compat access module in apache 2.4
In apache 2.4, the "Order" directive has gone away in favor
of a new system in mod_authz_host. However, since we want
our config file to remain compatible across multiple Apache
versions, we can use mod_access_compat to keep using the
older style.

The LockFile directive from earlier versions of apache has
been replaced by the Mutex directive. The latter seems to

74671241fd handle multibyte characters in name
Many "git submodule" operations do not work on a submodule at a path whose
name is not in ASCII.

This is because "git ls-files" is used to find which paths are bound to
submodules to the current working tree, and the output is C-quoted by default
for non ASCII pathnames.

Tell "git ls-files" to not C-quote its output, which is easier than unwrapping
C-quote ourselves.

0b437a18bd use logical OR (||) instead of binary OR (|) in logical context
The compiler can short-circuit the evaluation of conditions strung
together with logical OR operators instead of computing the resulting
bitmask with binary ORs.  More importantly, this patch makes the
intent of the changed code clearer, because the logical context (as
opposed to binary context) becomes immediately obvious.

While we're at it, simplify the check for patch->is_rename in
builtin/apply.c a bit; it can only be 0 or 1, so we don't need a
comparison operator.

a0fc4db01d read-cache: free cache in discard_index
discard_cache doesn't have to free the array of cache entries, because
the next call of read_cache can simply reuse it, as they all operate on
the global variable the_index.

discard_index on the other hand does have to free it, because it can be
used e.g. with index_state variables on the stack, in which case a
missing free would cause an unrecoverable leak.  This patch releases the
memory and removes a comment that was relevant for discard_cache but has
become outdated.

Since discard_cache is just a wrapper around discard_index nowadays, we
lose the optimization that avoids reallocation of that array within
loops of read_cache and discard_cache.  That doesn't cause a performance
regression for me, however (HEAD = this patch, HEAD^ = master + p0002):

70836a6f8b t4011: remove SYMLINKS prerequisite
The part of the test that is about symbolic links in the index does not
require that the corresponding file system entry is actually a symbolic
link. Use test_ln_s_add to insert a symbolic link in the index. When
the file system does not support symbolic links, we actually have a
regular file in the worktree, which  we can update as if it were a
symbolic link. diff-index picks up the symbolic link property from the
index.

bfd7804ee3 t6035: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite
All tests in t6035 are protected by SYMLINKS. But that is not necessary,
because a lot of the functionality can be tested provided symbolic link
entries enter the index and object data base. Use test_ln_s_add for this
purpose.

Some test cases do test the presence of symbolic links on the file system.
Move these tests into separate test cases that remain protected by
SYMLINKS.

There is one instance of expect_failure. There is a possibility that this
test case fails differently depending on whether SYMLINKS is present or
not; but this is not the case.

bba56042e7 t3030: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite
The test cases include many corner-cases of merge-recursive's behavior,
some of them involve type changes and symbolic links. All cases, including
those that are protected by SYMLINKS check only whether the result of
merge-recursive is correctly stored in the database and the index; the
file system is not investigated. Use test_ln_s_add to enter a symbolic
link in the index in the test setup and run the tests without the
SYMLINKS prerequisite.

Notice that one test that has the SYMLINKS protection removed is an
expect_failure. There is a possibility that the test fails differently
depending on whether SYMLINKS is present or not; but this is not the case
presently.

889c6f0e4d tests: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite (trivial cases)
There are many instances where the treatment of symbolic links in the
object model and the algorithms are tested, but where it is not
necessary to actually have a symbolic link in the worktree. Make
adjustments to the tests and remove the SYMLINKS prerequisite when
appropriate in trivial cases, where "trivial" means:

- merely a replacement of 'ln -s a b && git add b' by test_ln_s_add
  is needed;

- a test for symbolic link on the file system can be split off (and
  remains protected by SYMLINKS);

- existing code is equivalent to test_ln_s_add.

ca7a5dcfd3 gitweb: fix problem causing erroneous project list
The bug is manifest when running gitweb in a persistent process (e.g.
FastCGI, PSGI), and it's easy to reproduce.  If a gitweb request
includes the searchtext parameter (i.e. s), subsequent requests using
the project_list action--which is the default action--and without
a searchtext parameter will be filtered by the searchtext value of the
first request.  This is because the value of the $search_regexp global
(the value of which is based on the searchtext parameter) is currently
being persisted between requests.

Instead, clear $search_regexp before dispatching each request.

c3c327deea dir.c: fix ignore processing within not-ignored directories
As of 95c6f271 "dir.c: unify is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs", the
is_excluded API no longer recurses into directories that match an ignore
pattern, and returns the directory's ignored state for all contained paths.

This is OK for normal ignore patterns, i.e. ignoring a directory affects
the entire contents recursively.

Unfortunately, this also "works" for negated ignore patterns ('!dir'), i.e.
the entire contents is "not-ignored" recursively, regardless of ignore
patterns that match the contents directly.

In prep_exclude, skip recursing into a directory only if it is really
ignored (i.e. the ignore pattern is not negated).

b79c0c3755 wildmatch: properly fold case everywhere
Case folding is not done correctly when matching against the [:upper:]
character class and uppercased character ranges (e.g. A-Z).
Specifically, an uppercase letter fails to match against any of them
when case folding is requested because plain characters in the pattern
and the whole string are preemptively lowercased to handle the base case
fast.

That optimization is kept and ISLOWER() is used in the [:upper:] case
when case folding is requested, while matching against a character range
is retried with toupper() if the character was lowercase, as the bounds
of the range itself cannot be modified (in a case-insensitive context,
[A-_] is not equivalent to [a-_]).

f0c73200e8 Test 'commit --only' after 'checkout --orphan'
There are some index handling subtleties in 'commit --only' that are
best tested when we have an existing index, but an unborn or empty
HEAD.  These circumstances are easily produced by 'checkout --orphan',
but we did not previously have a test for it.

The main expected failure mode would be: erroneously loading the
existing index contents when building the temporary index that is used
for --only.  Cf.

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/225969

and subsequent discussion.

305ebea06d sha1_name: fix error message for @{<N>}, @{<date>}
Currently, when we try to resolve @{<N>} or @{<date>} when the reflog
doesn't go back far enough, we get errors like:

  # on branch master
  $ git show @{10000}
  fatal: Log for '' only has 7 entries.

  $ git show @{10000.days.ago}
  warning: Log for '' only goes back to Tue, 21 May 2013 14:14:45 +0530.
  ...

  # detached HEAD case
  $ git show @{10000}
  fatal: Log for '' only has 2005 entries.

  $ git show master@{10000}
  fatal: Log for 'master' only has 7 entries.

The empty string '' is confusing and does not convey information
about whose logs we are inspecting.  Change this so that we get:

  # on branch master
  $ git show @{10000}
  fatal: Log for 'master' only has 7 entries.

  $ git show @{10000.days.ago}
  warning: Log for 'master' only goes back to Tue, 21 May 2013 14:14:45 +0530.
  ...

  # detached HEAD case
  $ git show @{10000}
  fatal: Log for 'HEAD' only has 2005 entries.

  $ git show master@{10000}
  fatal: Log for 'master' only has 7 entries.

Also one of the message strings given to die() now points into
real_ref that was not used in that fashion, so stop freeing the
underlying storage for it.

0f075b2208 push: make push.default = current use resolved HEAD
With this change, the output of the push (with push.default set to
current) changes subtly from:

  $ git push
  ...
   * [new branch]      HEAD -> push-current-head

to:

  $ git push
  ...
   * [new branch]      push-current-head -> push-current-head

This patch was written with a different motivation. There is a problem
unique to push.default = current:

  # on branch push-current-head
  $ git push
  # on another terminal
  $ git checkout master
  # return to the first terminal
  # the push tried to push master!

This happens because the 'git checkout' on the second terminal races
with the 'git push' on the first terminal.  Although this patch does not
solve the core problem (there is still no guarantee that 'git push' on
the first terminal will resolve HEAD before 'git checkout' changes HEAD
on the second), it works in practice.
