87182b17ed use -h for synopsis and --help for manpage consistently
A few scripted Porcelain implementations pretend as if the routine to show
their own help messages are triggered upon "git cmd --help", but a command
line parser of "git" will hijack such a request and shows the manpage for
the cmd subcommand.

Leaving the code to handle such input is simply misleading.

6cdf0223fe remote-curl: Fix warning after HTTP failure
If the HTTP connection is broken in the middle of a fetch or clone
body, the client presented a useless error message due to part of
the upload-pack->remote-curl pkt-line protocol leaking out of the
helper as the helper's "fetch result":

  error: RPC failed; result=18, HTTP code = 200
  fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
  fatal: early EOF
  fatal: unpack-objects failed
  warning: https unexpectedly said: '0000'

Instead when the HTTP RPC fails discard all remaining data from
upload-pack and report nothing to the transport helper. Errors
were already sent to stderr.

0a93fb8a9c grep: teach --untracked and --exclude-standard options
In a working tree of a git managed repository, "grep --untracked" would
find the specified patterns from files in untracked files in addition to
its usual behaviour of finding them in the tracked files.

By default, when working with "--no-index" option, "grep" does not pay
attention to .gitignore mechanism. "grep --no-index --exclude-standard"
can be used to tell the command to use .gitignore and stop reporting hits
from files that would be ignored. Also, when working without "--no-index",
"grep" honors .gitignore mechanism, and "grep --no-exclude-standard" can
be used to tell the command to include hits from files that are ignored.

The transport_get() function assumes that a regular file is a
bundle rather than a local git directory. Look inside the file
for the telltale "gitlink: " header to see if it is actually a

treat it as a local repository instead.

03106768af Learn to handle gitfiles in enter_repo
The enter_repo() function is used to navigate into a .git
directory.  It knows how to find standard alternatives (DWIM) but
it doesn't handle gitfiles created by git init --separate-git-dir.
This means that git-fetch and others do not work with repositories
using the separate-git-dir mechanism.

the path to the redirected path and continuing tests on that path
instead of the found file.

0b20dd8f3d Makefile: do not set setgid bit on directories on GNU/kFreeBSD
The g+s bit on directories to make group ownership inherited is a
SysVism --- BSD and most of its descendants do not need it since they
do the sane thing by default without g+s.  In fact, on some
filesystems (but not all --- tmpfs works this way but UFS does not),
the kernel of FreeBSD does not even allow non-root users to set setgid
bit on directories and produces errors when one tries:

	$ git init --shared dir
	fatal: Could not make /tmp/dir/.git/refs writable by group

Since the setgid bit would only mean "do what you were going to do
already", it's better to avoid setting it.  Accordingly, ever since
v1.5.5-rc0~59^2 (Do not use GUID on dir in git init --share=all on
FreeBSD, 2008-03-05), git on true FreeBSD has done exactly that.  Set
DIR_HAS_BSD_GROUP_SEMANTICS in the makefile for GNU/kFreeBSD, too, so
machines that use glibc with the kernel of FreeBSD get the same fix.

This fixes t0001-init.sh and t1301-shared-repo.sh on GNU/kFreeBSD
when running tests with --root pointing to a directory that uses
tmpfs.

8a55caa8a3 ident: check /etc/mailname if email is unknown
Before falling back to gethostname(), check /etc/mailname if
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL is not set in the environment or through config
files.  Only fall back if /etc/mailname cannot be opened or read.

The /etc/mailname convention comes from Debian policy section 11.6
("mail transport, delivery and user agents"), though maybe it could be
useful sometimes on other machines, too.  The lack of this support was
noticed by various people in different ways:

 - Ian observed that git was choosing the address
   'ian@anarres.relativity.greenend.org.uk' rather than
   'ian@davenant.greenend.org.uk' as it should have done.

 - Jonathan noticed that operations like "git commit" were needlessly
   slow when using a resolver that was slow to handle reverse DNS
   lookups.

Alas, after this patch, if /etc/mailname is set up and the [user] name
and email configuration aren't, the committer email will not provide a
charming reminder of which machine commits were made on any more.  But
I think it's worth it.

Mechanics: the functionality of reading mailname goes in its own
function, so people who care about other distros can easily add an
implementation to a similar location without making copy_email() too
long and losing clarity.  While at it, we split out the fallback
default logic that does gethostname(), too (rearranging it a little
and adding a check for errors from gethostname while at it).

Based on a patch by Gerrit Pape <pape@smarden.org>.

We simply copy the struct object_array that points to the list, set

it and it's ours.  We use it to clear the marks and  free it at the

The new flag leak_pending in struct rev_info can be used to prevent
prepare_revision_walk from freeing the list of pending objects.  It
will still forget about them, so it really is leaked.  This behaviour
may look weird at first, but it can be useful if the pointer to the

e9c4c11165 refs: Use binary search to lookup refs faster

find a specific ref.  This can be very slow if we need to lookup a
large number of refs.  By changing to a binary search we can make this

In order to be able to use a binary search we need to change from
using linked lists to arrays, which we can manage using ALLOC_GROW.

We can now also use the standard library qsort function to sort the
refs arrays.

160b81ed81 receive-pack: don't pass non-existent refs to post-{receive,update} hooks
When a push specifies deletion of non-existent refs, the post post-receive and
post-update hooks receive them as input/arguments.

For instance, for the following push, where refs/heads/nonexistent is a ref
which does not exist on the remote side:

	git push origin :refs/heads/nonexistent

the post-receive hook receives from standard input:

	<null-sha1> SP <null-sha1> SP refs/heads/nonexistent

and the post-update hook receives as arguments:

	refs/heads/nonexistent

which does not make sense since it is a no-op.

Teach receive-pack not to pass non-existent refs to the post-receive and
post-update hooks. If the push only attempts to delete non-existent refs,
these hooks are not even called.

The update and pre-receive hooks are still notified about attempted
deletion of non-existent refs to give them a chance to inspect the
situation and act on it.

some tests]

0a1283bc39 checkout $tree $path: do not clobber local changes in $path not in $tree
Checking paths out of a tree is (currently) defined to do:

 - Grab the paths from the named tree that match the given pathspec,
   and add them to the index;

 - Check out the contents from the index for paths that match the
   pathspec to the working tree; and while at it

 - If the given pathspec did not match anything, suspect a typo from the
   command line and error out without updating the index nor the working
   tree.

Suppose that the branch you are working on has dir/myfile, and the "other"
branch has dir/other but not dir/myfile. Further imagine that you have
either modified or removed dir/myfile in your working tree, but you have
not run "git add dir/myfile" or "git rm dir/myfile" to tell Git about your
local change. Running

 $ git checkout other dir

would add dir/other to the index with the contents taken out of the
"other" branch, and check out the paths from the index that match the
pathspec "dir", namely, "dir/other" and "dir/myfile", overwriting your
local changes to "dir/myfile", even though "other" branch does not even
know about that file.

Fix it by updating the working tree only with the index entries that
was read from the "other" tree.

ccdbdc79a3 send-email: auth plain/login fix
git send-email was not authenticating properly when communicating over
TLS with a server supporting only AUTH PLAIN and AUTH LOGIN. This is
e.g. the standard server setup under debian with exim4 and probably
everywhere where system accounts are used.

The problem (only?) exists when libauthen-sasl-cyrus-perl
(Authen::SASL::Cyrus) is installed. Importing Authen::SASL::Perl
makes Authen::SASL use the perl implementation which works
better.

The solution is based on this forum thread:
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=904354.

This patch is tested by sending it. Without this fix, the interaction with
the server failed like this:

$ git send-email --smtp-encryption=tls --smtp-server=... --smtp-debug=1 change1.patch

In the case of a wide breadth top-level tree (~2400 entries, all trees

repository, so base is "" and baselen == 0, which means we will always
test true. Break out this one tiny case so we can short circuit the
strncmp() call.

Test cases are as follows. packages.git is the Arch Linux git-svn clone

The takeaway here is this doesn't matter in many operations, but it does
for a certain style of repository and operation where it nets a 6.5%
measured improvement. The other changes are likely not significant by
reasonable statistics methods.

Note: the measured improvement when originally submitted was ~11% (43 to
38 secs) for operation [2]. At the time, the repository had 117220
commits; it now has 137537 commits.

1d6abac9d5 git-remote-mediawiki: allow a domain to be set for authentication
When the wiki uses e.g. LDAP for authentication, the web interface shows
a popup to allow the user to chose an authentication domain, and we need
to use lgdomain in the API at login time.

6acec0380b parseopt: add OPT_NOOP_NOARG
Add OPT_NOOP_NOARG, a helper macro to define deprecated options in a
standard way.  The help text is taken from the no-op option -r of
git revert.

The callback could be made to emit a (conditional?) warning later.  And
we could also add OPT_NOOP (requiring an argument) etc. as needed.

f858c646b5 archive.c: use OPT_BOOL()
The list variable (which is OPT_BOOLEAN) is initialized to 0 and only
checked against 0 in the code, so it is safe to use OPT_BOOL().

The worktree_attributes variable (which is OPT_BOOLEAN) is initialized to
0 and later assigned to a field with the same name in struct archive_args,
which is a bitfield of width 1. It is safe and even more correct to use
OPT_BOOL() here; the new test in 5001 demonstrates why using OPT_COUNTUP
is wrong.

b04ba2bb42 parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN
It is natural to expect that an option defined with OPT_BOOLEAN() could be
used in this way:

	int option = -1; /* unspecified */

	struct option options[] = {
		OPT_BOOLEAN(0, "option", &option, "set option"),
                OPT_END()
	};
	parse_options(ac, av, prefix, options, usage, 0);

        if (option < 0)
        	... do the default thing ...
	else if (!option)
		... --no-option was given ...
	else
		... --option was given ...

to easily tell three cases apart:

 - There is no mention of the `--option` on the command line;
 - The variable is positively set with `--option`; or
 - The variable is explicitly negated with `--no-option`.

Unfortunately, this is not the case. OPT_BOOLEAN() increments the variable
every time `--option` is given, and resets it to zero when `--no-option`
is given.

As a first step to remedy this, introduce a true boolean OPT_BOOL(), and
rename OPT_BOOLEAN() to OPT_COUNTUP(). To help transitioning, OPT_BOOLEAN
and OPTION_BOOLEAN are defined as deprecated synonyms to OPT_COUNTUP and
OPTION_COUNTUP respectively.

This is what db7244b (parse-options new features., 2007-11-07) from four
years ago started by marking OPTION_BOOLEAN as "INCR would have been a
better name".

Some existing users do depend on the count-up semantics; for example,
users of OPT__VERBOSE() could use it to raise the verbosity level with
repeated use of `-v` on the command line, but they probably should be
rewritten to use OPT__VERBOSITY() instead these days.  I suspect that some
users of OPT__FORCE() may also use it to implement different level of
forcibleness but I didn't check.

On top of this patch, here are the remaining clean-up tasks that other
people can help:

 - Look at each hit in "git grep -e OPT_BOOLEAN"; trace all uses of the
   value that is set to the underlying variable, and if it can proven that
   the variable is only used as a boolean, replace it with OPT_BOOL(). If
   the caller does depend on the count-up semantics, replace it with
   OPT_COUNTUP() instead.

 - Same for OPTION_BOOLEAN; replace it with OPTION_SET_INT and arrange to
   set 1 to the variable for a true boolean, and otherwise replace it with
   OPTION_COUNTUP.

 - Look at each hit in "git grep -e OPT__VERBOSE -e OPT__QUIET" and see if
   they can be replaced with OPT__VERBOSITY().

I'll follow this message up with a separate patch as an example.
