It can happen quite easily that the last setting in a config section is
removed, and to avoid confusion when there are comments in the config
about that section, we keep a lone section header, i.e. an empty
section.
Now that we use the `event_fn` callback, it is easy to add support for
re-using empty sections, so let's do that.
Note: t5512-ls-remote requires that this change is applied *after* the
patch "git config --unset: remove empty sections (in the common case)":
without that patch, there would be empty `transfer` and `uploadpack`
sections ready for reuse, but in the *wrong* order (and sconsequently,
t5512's "overrides work between mixed transfer/upload-pack hideRefs"
would fail).

The original reasoning for not removing section headers upon removal of
the last entry went like this: the user could have added comments about
the section, or about the entries therein, and if there were other
comments there, we would not know whether we should remove them.
In particular, a concocted example was presented that looked like this
(and was added to t1300):
# some generic comment on the configuration file itself
# a comment specific to this "section" section.
[section]
# some intervening lines
# that should also be dropped
key = value
# please be careful when you update the above variable
The ideal thing for `git config --unset section.key` in this case would
be to leave only the first line behind, because all the other comments
are now obsolete.
However, this is unfeasible, short of adding a complete Natural Language
Processing module to Git, which seems not only a lot of work, but a
totally unreasonable feature (for little benefit to most users).
Now, the real kicker about this problem is: most users do not edit their
config files at all! In their use case, the config looks like this
instead:
[section]
key = value
... and it is totally obvious what should happen if the entry is
removed: the entire section should vanish.
Let's generalize this observation to this conservative strategy: if we
are removing the last entry from a section, and there are no comments
inside that section nor surrounding it, then remove the entire section.
Otherwise behave as before: leave the now-empty section (including those
comments, even ones about the now-deleted entry).
We have to be extra careful to handle the case where more than one entry
is removed: any subset of them might be the last entries of their
respective sections (and if there are no comments in or around that
section, the section should be removed, too).

In the recent commit with the title "config: introduce an optional event
stream while parsing", we introduced an optional callback to keep track
of the config parser's events "comment", "white-space", "section header"
and "entry".
One motivation for this feature was to make use of it in the code that
edits the config. And this commit makes it so.
Note: this patch changes the meaning of the `seen` array that records
whether we saw the config entry that is to be edited: previously, it
contained the end offset of the found entry. Now, we introduce a new
array `parsed` that keeps a record of *all* config parser events (with
begin/end offsets), and the items in the `seen` array now point into the
`parsed` array.
There are two reasons why we do it this way:
1. To keep the implementation simple, the config parser's event stream
reports the event only after the config callback was called, so we
would not receive the begin offset otherwise.
2. In the following patches, we will re-use the `parsed` array to fix two
long-standing bugs related to empty sections.
Note that this also makes the code more robust with respect to finding the
begin offset of the part(s) of the config file to be edited, as we no
longer back-track to find the beginning of the line.

While a neat theoretical construct, state machines are hard to read. In
this instance, it does not even make a whole lot of sense because we are
more interested in flags, anyway: has the section been seen? Has the key
been seen? Does the current section match the key we are looking for?
Besides, the state `SECTION_SEEN` was named in a misleading way: it did
not indicate that we saw the section matching the key we are looking
for, but it instead indicated that we are *currently* in that section.
Let's just replace the state machine logic by clear and obvious flags.
This will also make it easier to review the upcoming patches to use the
newly-introduced `event_fn` callback of the config parser.

The `seen` field is the actual length of the `offset` array, and the
`offset_alloc` field records what was allocated (to avoid resizing
wherever `seen` has to be incremented).
Elsewhere, we use the convention `name` for the array, where `name` is
descriptive enough to guess its purpose, `name_nr` for the actual length
and `name_alloc` to record the maximum length without needing to resize.
Let's make the names of the fields in question consistent with that
convention.
This will also help with the next steps where we will let the
git_config_set() machinery use the config event stream that we just
introduced.

Currently, we are slightly overzealous When removing an entry from a
config file of this form:
[abc]a
[xyz]
key = value
When calling `git config --unset abc.a` on this file, it leaves this
(invalid) config behind:
[
[xyz]
key = value
The reason is that we try to search for the beginning of the line (or
for the end of the preceding section header on the same line) that
defines abc.a, but as an optimization, we subtract 2 from the offset
pointing just after the definition before we call
find_beginning_of_line(). That function, however, *also* performs that
optimization and promptly fails to find the section header correctly.

This is the "theoretically more correct" approach of simply
stepping back to the state before plumbing commands started paying
attention to "color.ui" configuration variable.
Let's run with this one.
* jk/ref-filter-colors-fix:
tag: respect color.ui config
Revert "color: check color.ui in git_default_config()"
Revert "t6006: drop "always" color config tests"
Revert "color: make "always" the same as "auto" in config"
This reverts commit 136c8c8b8f.
That commit was trying to address a bug caused by 4c7f1819b3
(make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), in which
plumbing like diff-tree defaulted to "auto" color, but did
not respect a "color.ui" directive to disable it.
But it also meant that we started respecting "color.ui" set
to "always". This was a known problem, but 4c7f1819b3 argued
that nobody ought to be doing that. However, that turned out
to be wrong, and we got a number of bug reports related to
"add -p" regressing in v2.14.2.
Let's revert 136c8c8b8, fixing the regression to "add -p".
This leaves the problem from 4c7f1819b3 unfixed, but:
1. It's a pretty obscure problem in the first place. I
only noticed it while working on the color code, and we
haven't got a single bug report or complaint about it.
2. We can make a more moderate fix on top by respecting
"never" but not "always" for plumbing commands. This
is just the minimal fix to go back to the working state
we had before v2.14.2.
Note that this isn't a pure revert. We now have a test in
t3701 which shows off the "add -p" regression. This can be
flipped to success.

When the index is read from disk, the fsmonitor index extension is used
to flag the last known potentially dirty index entries. The registered
core.fsmonitor command is called with the time the index was last
updated and returns the list of files changed since that time. This list
is used to flag any additional dirty cache entries and untracked cache
directories.
We can then use this valid state to speed up preload_index(),
ie_match_stat(), and refresh_cache_ent() as they do not need to lstat()
files to detect potential changes for those entries marked
CE_FSMONITOR_VALID.
In addition, if the untracked cache is turned on valid_cached_dir() can
skip checking directories for new or changed files as fsmonitor will
invalidate the cache only for those directories that have been
identified as having potential changes.
To keep the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID state accurate during git operations;
when git updates a cache entry to match the current state on disk,
it will now set the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit.
Inversely, anytime git changes a cache entry, the CE_FSMONITOR_VALID bit
is cleared and the corresponding untracked cache directory is marked
invalid.

get-tar-commit-id: check write_in_full() return against 0
config: avoid "write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len" pattern
Gcc 7 adds -Wimplicit-fallthrough, which can warn when a
switch case falls through to the next case. The general idea
is that the compiler can't tell if this was intentional or
not, so you should annotate any intentional fall-throughs as
such, leaving it to complain about any unannotated ones.
There's a GNU __attribute__ which can be used for
annotation, but of course we'd have to #ifdef it away on
non-gcc compilers. Gcc will also recognize
specially-formatted comments, which matches our current
practice. Let's extend that practice to all of the
unannotated sites (which I did look over and verify that
they were behaving as intended).
Ideally in each case we'd actually give some reasons in the
comment about why we're falling through, or what we're
falling through to. And gcc does support that with
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=2, which relaxes the comment pattern
matching to anything that contains "fallthrough" (or a
variety of spelling variants). However, this isn't the
default for -Wimplicit-fallthrough, nor for -Wextra. In the
name of simplicity, it's probably better for us to support
the default level, which requires "fallthrough" to be the
only thing in the comment (modulo some window dressing like
"else" and some punctuation; see the gcc manual for the
complete set of patterns).
This patch suppresses all warnings due to
-Wimplicit-fallthrough. We might eventually want to add that
to the DEVELOPER Makefile knob, but we should probably wait
until gcc 7 is more widely adopted (since earlier versions
will complain about the unknown warning type).

The store_write_section() and store_write_pairs() functions
are basically high-level wrappers around write(). But their
return values are flipped from our usual convention, using
"1" for success and "0" for failure.
Let's flip them to follow the usual write() conventions and
update all callers. As these are local to config.c, it's
unlikely that we'd have new callers in any topics in flight
(which would be silently broken by our change). But just to
be on the safe side, let's rename them to just

The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the
requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write
before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial
value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really
write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11).
So checking anything except "was the return value negative"
is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do
so:
1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your
"len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will
promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant.
This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were
trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a
bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed
recently in config.c).
We should avoid promoting the mental model that you
need to check the length at all, so that new sites are
not tempted to copy us.
2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type,
especially when the length is an expression.
3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full()
users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full()
semantics were changed, he wrote:
I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just
check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and
stupid ones.
Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that
writing it this way does not have an intentional
benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never
bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly
cargo-culted into new sites).
So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this
includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for
write_in_full()).
[1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that
write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask
write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is
_larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But
besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken
version of write(), it would already invoke undefined
behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned
size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will
wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly
begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write
gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

The return type of write_in_full() is a signed ssize_t,
because we may return "-1" on failure (even if we succeeded
in writing some bytes). But "len" itself is may be an
unsigned type (the function takes a size_t, but of course we
may have something else in the calling function). So while
it seems like:
if (write_in_full(fd, buf, len) < len)
die_errno("write error");
would trigger on error, it won't if "len" is unsigned. The
compiler sees a signed/unsigned comparison and promotes the
signed value, resulting in (size_t)-1, the highest possible
size_t (or again, whatever type the caller has). This cannot
possibly be smaller than "len", and so the conditional can
never trigger.
I scoured the code base for cases of this, but it turns out
that these two in git_config_set_multivar_in_file_gently()
are the only ones. Here our "len" is the difference between
two size_t variables, making the result an unsigned size_t.
We can fix this by just checking for a negative return value
directly, as write_in_full() will never return any value
except -1 or the full count.
There's no addition to the test suite here, since you need
to convince write() to fail in order to see the problem. The
simplest reproduction recipe I came up with is to trigger
ENOSPC:
# make a limited-size filesystem
dd if=/dev/zero of=small.disk bs=1M count=1
mke2fs small.disk
mkdir mnt
sudo mount -o loop small.disk mnt
cd mnt
sudo chown $USER:$USER .
# make a config file with some content
git config --file=config one.key value
git config --file=config two.key value
# now fill up the disk
dd if=/dev/zero of=fill
# and try to delete a key, which requires copying the rest
# of the file to config.lock, and will fail on write()
git config --file=config --unset two.key
That final command should (and does after this patch)
produce an error message due to the failed write, and leave
the file intact. Instead, it silently ignores the failure
and renames config.lock into place, leaving you with a
totally empty config file!

Now that it's safe to declare a "struct lock_file" on the
stack, we can do so (and avoid an intentional leak). These
leaks were found by running t0000 and t0001 under valgrind
(though certainly other similar leaks exist and just don't
happen to be exercised by those tests).
Initializing the lock_file's inner tempfile with NULL is not
strictly necessary in these cases, but it's a good practice
to model. It means that if we were to call a function like
rollback_lock_file() on a lock that was never taken in the
first place, it becomes a quiet noop (rather than undefined
behavior).
Likewise, it's always safe to rollback_lock_file() on a file
that has already been committed or deleted, since that
operation is a noop on an inactive lockfile (and that's why
the case in config.c can drop the "if (lock)" check as we
move away from using a pointer).

is correctly parsed into the *expiry variable, and there was an
error in parsing the given value). The current caller can work
correctly without using the return value, though.
In the future, we may find other variables that only allow an
integer that specifies "this many days" or other unit of time, and

Many uses of comparision callback function the hashmap API uses
cast the callback function type when registering it to
hashmap_init(), which defeats the compile time type checking when
the callback interface changes (e.g. gaining more parameters).
The callback implementations have been updated to take "void *"
pointers and cast them to the type they expect instead.

The only difference between these is that the former takes an argument
`name` which it ignores completely. Still, the callers are quite careful
to provide reasonable values for it.
Once in-flight topics have landed, we should be able to remove
git_config_maybe_bool. In the meantime, document it as deprecated in the
technical documentation. While at it, document git_parse_maybe_bool.

Both of these act on a string `value` which they parse as a boolean. The
"parse"-variant was introduced as a replacement for the "config"-variant
which for historical reasons takes an unused argument `name`. That it
was intended as a replacement is not obvious from commit 9a549d43
("config.c: rename git_config_maybe_bool_text and export it as
git_parse_maybe_bool", 2015-08-19), but that is what the background on
the mailing list suggests [1].
However, these two functions do not parse `value` in exactly the same
way. In particular, git_config_maybe_bool accepts integers (0 for false,
non-0 for true). This means there are two slightly different definitions
of "maybe_bool" in the code-base, and that every time a call to
git_config_maybe_bool is changed to use git_parse_maybe_bool, it risks
breaking someone's workflow.
Move the implementation of "config" into "parse" and make the latter a
trivial wrapper.
This also fixes the only user of git_parse_maybe_bool, `git push
--signed=..`.

Commit 9a549d43 ("config.c: rename git_config_maybe_bool_text and export
it as git_parse_maybe_bool", 2015-08-19) intended git_parse_maybe_bool
to be a replacement for git_config_maybe_bool, which could then be
retired. That is not obvious from the commit message, but that is what
the background on the mailing list suggests [1].
However, git_{config,parse}_maybe_bool do not handle all input the same.
Before the rename, that was by design and there is a caller in config.c
which requires git_parse_maybe_bool to behave exactly as it does.
Prepare for the next patch by renaming git_parse_maybe_bool to ..._text
and reimplementing the first one as a simple call to the second one. Let
the existing users in config.c use ..._text, since it does what they
need.

Add 'config_from_gitmodules()' function which can be used by 'fetch' and
'update_clone' in order to maintain backwards compatibility with
configuration being stored in .gitmodules' since a future patch will
remove reading these values in the submodule-config.
This function should not be used anywhere other than in 'fetch' and
'update_clone'.

Update the hashmap API so that data to customize the behaviour of
the comparison function can be specified at the time a hashmap is
initialized.

Back in prehistoric times, our decision on whether or not to
show color by default relied on using a config callback that
either did or didn't load color config like color.diff.
When we introduced color.ui, we put it in the same boat:
commands had to manually respect it by using git_color_config()
or its git_color_default_config() convenience wrapper.
But in 4c7f1819b (make color.ui default to 'auto',
2013-06-10), that changed. Since then, we default color.ui
to auto in all programs, meaning that even plumbing commands
like "git diff-tree --pretty" might colorize the output.
Nobody seems to have complained in the intervening years,
presumably because the "is stdout a tty" check does a good
job of catching the right cases.
But that leaves an interesting curiosity: color.ui defaults
to auto even in plumbing, but you can't actually _disable_
the color via config. So if you really hate color and set
"color.ui" to false, diff-tree will still show color (but
porcelain like git-diff won't). Nobody noticed that either,
probably because very few people disable color.
One could argue that the plumbing should _always_ disable
color unless an explicit --color option is given on the
command line. But in practice, this creates a lot of
complications for scripts which do want plumbing to show
user-visible output. They can't just pass "--color" blindly;
they need to check the user's config and decide what to
send.
Given that nobody has complained about the current behavior,
let's assume it's a good path, and follow it to its
conclusion: supporting color.ui everywhere.
Note that you can create havoc by setting color.ui=always in
your config, but that's more or less already the case. We
could disallow it entirely, but it is handy for one-offs
like:
git -c color.ui=always foo >not-a-tty
when "foo" does not take a --color option itself.
