Note that this fix will not help if the hand-edited hunk header were

We set revs->ignore_missing_links to instruct the
revision-walking machinery that we know the history graph
may be incomplete. For example, we use it when walking
unreachable but recent objects; we want to add what we can,
but it's OK if the history is incomplete.
However, we still print error messages for the missing
objects, which can be confusing. This is not an error, but
just a normal situation when transitioning from a repository
last pruned by an older git (which can leave broken segments
of history) to a more recent one (where we try to preserve
whole reachable segments).

If both core.bare and core.worktree are set, we complain
about the bogus config and die. Dying is good, because it
avoids commands running and doing damage in a potentially
incorrect setup. But dying _there_ is bad, because it means
that commands which do not even care about the work tree
cannot run. This can make repairing the situation harder:
[setup]
$ git config core.bare true
$ git config core.worktree /some/path
[OK, expected.]
$ git status
fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense
[Hrm...]
$ git config --unset core.worktree
fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense
[Nope...]
$ git config --edit
fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense
[Gaaah.]
$ git help config
fatal: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense
Instead, let's issue a warning about the bogus config when
we notice it (i.e., for all commands), but only die when the
command tries to use the work tree (by calling setup_work_tree).
So we now get:
$ git status
warning: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense
fatal: unable to set up work tree using invalid config
$ git config --unset core.worktree
warning: core.bare and core.worktree do not make sense
We have to update t1510 to accomodate this; it uses
symbolic-ref to check whether the configuration works or
not, but of course that command does not use the working
tree. Instead, we switch it to use `git status`, as it
requires a work-tree, does not need any special setup, and
is read-only (so a failure will not adversely affect further
tests).
In addition, we add a new test that checks the desired
behavior (i.e., that running "git config" with the bogus
config does in fact work).

* jk/http-backend-deadlock-2.2:
http-backend: spool ref negotiation requests to buffer
t5551: factor out tag creation
http-backend: fix die recursion with custom handler
When http-backend spawns "upload-pack" to do ref
negotiation, it streams the http request body to
upload-pack, who then streams the http response back to the
client as it reads. In theory, git can go full-duplex; the
client can consume our response while it is still sending
the request. In practice, however, HTTP is a half-duplex
protocol. Even if our client is ready to read and write
simultaneously, we may have other HTTP infrastructure in the
way, including the webserver that spawns our CGI, or any
intermediate proxies.
In at least one documented case[1], this leads to deadlock
when trying a fetch over http. What happens is basically:
1. Apache proxies the request to the CGI, http-backend.
2. http-backend gzip-inflates the data and sends
the result to upload-pack.
3. upload-pack acts on the data and generates output over
the pipe back to Apache. Apache isn't reading because
it's busy writing (step 1).
This works fine most of the time, because the upload-pack
output ends up in a system pipe buffer, and Apache reads
it as soon as it finishes writing. But if both the request
and the response exceed the system pipe buffer size, then we
deadlock (Apache blocks writing to http-backend,
http-backend blocks writing to upload-pack, and upload-pack
blocks writing to Apache).
We need to break the deadlock by spooling either the input
or the output. In this case, it's ideal to spool the input,
because Apache does not start reading either stdout _or_
stderr until we have consumed all of the input. So until we
do so, we cannot even get an error message out to the
client.
The solution is fairly straight-forward: we read the request
body into an in-memory buffer in http-backend, freeing up
Apache, and then feed the data ourselves to upload-pack. But
there are a few important things to note:
1. We limit the in-memory buffer to prevent an obvious
denial-of-service attack. This is a new hard limit on
requests, but it's unlikely to come into play. The
default value is 10MB, which covers even the ridiculous
100,000-ref negotation in the included test (that
actually caps out just over 5MB). But it's configurable
on the off chance that you don't mind spending some
extra memory to make even ridiculous requests work.
2. We must take care only to buffer when we have to. For
pushes, the incoming packfile may be of arbitrary
size, and we should connect the input directly to
receive-pack. There's no deadlock problem here, though,
because we do not produce any output until the whole
packfile has been read.
For upload-pack's initial ref advertisement, we
similarly do not need to buffer. Even though we may
generate a lot of output, there is no request body at
all (i.e., it is a GET, not a POST).

With uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant configuration option set on the
server side, "git fetch" can make a request with a "want" line that names
an object that has not been advertised (likely to have been obtained out
of band or from a submodule pointer). Only objects reachable from the
branch tips, i.e. the union of advertised branches and branches hidden by
transfer.hideRefs, will be processed. Note that there is an associated
cost of having to walk back the history to check the reachability.
This feature can be used when obtaining the content of a certain commit,
for which the sha1 is known, without the need of cloning the whole
repository, especially if a shallow fetch is used. Useful cases are e.g.
repositories containing large files in the history, fetching only the
needed data for a submodule checkout, when sharing a sha1 without telling
which exact branch it belongs to and in Gerrit, if you think in terms of
commits instead of change numbers. (The Gerrit case has already been
solved through allowTipSHA1InWant as every Gerrit change has a ref.)

In a triangular workflow, each branch may have two distinct
points of interest: the @{upstream} that you normally pull
from, and the destination that you normally push to. There
isn't a shorthand for the latter, but it's useful to have.
For instance, you may want to know which commits you haven't
pushed yet:
git log @{push}..
Or as a more complicated example, imagine that you normally
pull changes from origin/master (which you set as your
@{upstream}), and push changes to your own personal fork
(e.g., as myfork/topic). You may push to your fork from
multiple machines, requiring you to integrate the changes
from the push destination, rather than upstream. With this
patch, you can just do:
git rebase @{push}
rather than typing out the full name.
The heavy lifting is all done by branch_get_push; here we
just wire it up to the "@{push}" syntax.

Usually, when 'git rebase' stops before completing the rebase, it is to
give the user an opportunity to edit a commit (e.g. with the 'edit'
command). In such cases, 'git rebase' leaves the sha1 of the commit being
rewritten in "$state_dir"/stopped-sha, and subsequent 'git rebase
--continue' will call the post-rewrite hook with this sha1 as <old-sha1>
argument to the post-rewrite hook.
The case of 'git rebase' stopping because of a failed 'exec' command is
different: it gives the opportunity to the user to examine or fix the
failure, but does not stop saying "here's a commit to edit, use
--continue when you're done". So, there's no reason to call the
post-rewrite hook for 'exec' commands. If the user did rewrite the
commit, it would be with 'git commit --amend' which already called the
post-rewrite hook.
Fix the behavior to leave no stopped-sha file in case of failed exec
command, and teach 'git rebase --continue' to skip record_in_rewritten if
no stopped-sha file is found.

The 'exec' command is sending the current commit to stopped-sha, which is
supposed to contain the original commit (before rebase). As a result, if
an 'exec' command fails, the next 'git rebase --continue' will send the

The option parser for git-stash stuffs unknown flags into

this:

Dropped refs/stash@{0} (e6cf6d80faf92bb7828f7b60c47fc61c03bd30a1)
We should notice the extra flags and bail. Rather than
annotate each command to reject a non-empty $FLAGS variable,
we can notice that "stash show" is the only command that
actually _wants_ arbitrary flags. So we switch the default
mode to reject unknown flags, and let stash_show() opt into

Back when these tests were written, we wanted to make sure that Git
notices it is in a bare repository and "git show -s HEAD" would
refrain from complaining that HEAD might mean a file it sees in its
current working directory (because it does not). But the version of
Git back then didn't behave well, without (doubly) being told that
it is inside a bare repository by exporting "GIT_DIR=.". The form
of the test we originally wanted to have was left commented out as
a reminder.
Nowadays the test as originally intended works, so add it to the
test suite. We'll keep the old test that explicitly sets GIT_DIR=.
to make sure that use case will not regress.

Since b814da8 (pull: add pull.ff configuration, 2014-01-15), running
git-pull with the configuration pull.ff=false or pull.ff=only is
equivalent to passing --no-ff and --ff-only to git-merge. However, if
pull.ff=true, no switch is passed to git-merge. This leads to the
confusing behavior where pull.ff=false or pull.ff=only is able to
override merge.ff, while pull.ff=true is unable to.
Fix this by adding the --ff switch if pull.ff=true, and add a test to

fully established the current advices given by git-pull for the
different cases where git-fetch will not have anything marked for merge:
1. We fetched from a specific remote, and a refspec was given, but it
ended up not fetching anything. This is usually because the user
provided a wildcard refspec which had no matches on the remote end.
2. We fetched from a non-default remote, but didn't specify a branch to
merge. We can't use the configured one because it applies to the
default remote, and thus the user must specify the branches to merge.
3. We fetched from the branch's or repo's default remote, but:
a. We are not on a branch, so there will never be a configured branch
to merge with.
b. We are on a branch, but there is no configured branch to merge
with.
4. We fetched from the branch's or repo's default remote, but the
configured branch to merge didn't get fetched (either it doesn't
exist, or wasn't part of the configured fetch refspec)
Implement tests for the above 5 cases to ensure that the correct code

`git add` of an empty file with a filter pops complaints from
`copy_fd` about a bad file descriptor.
This traces back to these lines in sha1_file.c:index_core:
if (!size) {
ret = index_mem(sha1, NULL, size, type, path, flags);
The problem here is that content to be added to the index can be
supplied from an fd, or from a memory buffer, or from a pathname. This
call is supplying a NULL buffer pointer and a zero size.
Downstream logic takes the complete absence of a buffer to mean the
data is to be found elsewhere -- for instance, these, from convert.c:
if (params->src) {
write_err = (write_in_full(child_process.in, params->src, params->size) < 0);
} else {
write_err = copy_fd(params->fd, child_process.in);
}
~If there's a buffer, write from that, otherwise the data must be coming
from an open fd.~
Perfectly reasonable logic in a routine that's going to write from
either a buffer or an fd.
So change `index_core` to supply an empty buffer when indexing an empty
file.
There's a patch out there that instead changes the logic quoted above to
take a `-1` fd to mean "use the buffer", but it seems to me that the
distinction between a missing buffer and an empty one carries intrinsic
semantics, where the logic change is adapting the code to handle
incorrect arguments.

Currently, there is only one attempt to acquire any lockfile, and if
the lock is held by another process, the locking attempt fails
immediately.
This is not such a limitation for loose reference files. First, they
don't take long to rewrite. Second, most reference updates have a
known "old" value, so if another process is updating a reference at
the same moment that we are trying to lock it, then probably the
expected "old" value will not longer be valid, and the update will
fail anyway.
But these arguments do not hold for packed-refs:
* The packed-refs file can be large and take significant time to
rewrite.
* Many references are stored in a single packed-refs file, so it could
be that the other process was changing a different reference than
the one that we are interested in.
Therefore, it is much more likely for there to be spurious lock
conflicts in connection to the packed-refs file, resulting in
unnecessary command failures.
So, if the first attempt to lock the packed-refs file fails, continue
retrying for a configurable length of time before giving up. The
default timeout is 1 second.

The previous step to teach "log --decorate" to show "HEAD -> master"
instead of "HEAD, master" when showing the commit at the tip of the
'master' branch, when the 'master' branch is checked out, did not
work for "log --decorate=full".
The commands in the "log" family prepare commit decorations for all
refs upfront, and the actual string used in a decoration depends on
how load_ref_decorations() is called very early in the process. By
default, "git log --decorate" stores names with common prefixes such
as "refs/heads" stripped; "git log --decorate=full" stores the full
refnames.
When the current_pointed_by_HEAD() function has to decide if "HEAD"
points at the branch a decoration describes, however, what was
passed to load_ref_decorations() to decide to strip (or keep) such a
common prefix is long lost. This makes it impossible to reliably
tell if a decoration that stores "refs/heads/master", for example,
is the 'master' branch (under "--decorate" with prefix omitted) or
'refs/heads/master' branch (under "--decorate=full").
Keep what was passed to load_ref_decorations() in a global next to
the global variable name_decoration, and use that to decide how to
match what was read from "HEAD" and what is in a decoration.

The old code was roughly
for update in updates:
acquire locks and check old_sha
for update in updates:
if changing value:
write_ref_to_lockfile()
commit_ref_update()
for update in updates:
if deleting value:
unlink()
rewrite packed-refs file
for update in updates:
if reference still locked:
unlock_ref()
This has two problems.
Non-atomic updates
==================
The atomicity of the reference transaction depends on all pre-checks
being done in the first loop, before any changes have started being
committed in the second loop. The problem is that
write_ref_to_lockfile() (previously part of write_ref_sha1()), which
is called from the second loop, contains two more checks:
* It verifies that new_sha1 is a valid object
* If the reference being updated is a branch, it verifies that
new_sha1 points at a commit object (as opposed to a tag, tree, or
blob).
If either of these checks fails, the "transaction" is aborted during
the second loop. But this might happen after some reference updates
have already been permanently committed. In other words, the
all-or-nothing promise of "git update-ref --stdin" could be violated.
So these checks have to be moved to the first loop.
File descriptor exhaustion
==========================
The old code locked all of the references in the first loop, leaving
all of the lockfiles open until later loops. Since we might be
updating a lot of references, this could result in file descriptor
exhaustion.
The solution
============
After this patch, the code looks like
for update in updates:
acquire locks and check old_sha
if changing value:
write_ref_to_lockfile()
else:
close_ref()
for update in updates:
if changing value:
commit_ref_update()
for update in updates:
if deleting value:
unlink()
rewrite packed-refs file
for update in updates:
if reference still locked:
unlock_ref()
This fixes both problems:
1. The pre-checks in write_ref_to_lockfile() are now done in the first
loop, before any changes have been committed. If any of the checks
fails, the whole transaction can now be rolled back correctly.
2. All lockfiles are closed in the first loop immediately after they
are created (either by write_ref_to_lockfile() or by close_ref()).
This means that there is never more than one open lockfile at a
time, preventing file descriptor exhaustion.
To simplify the bookkeeping across loops, add a new REF_NEEDS_COMMIT
bit to update->flags, which keeps track of whether the corresponding
lockfile needs to be committed, as opposed to just unlocked. (Since
"struct ref_update" is internal to the refs module, this change is not
visible to external callers.)
This change fixes two tests in t1400.

Currently there are a few completion functions that perform similar 'git

Unify those 'git config' queries in a helper function to eliminate code

Though the helper functions to get pretty aliases and alieses are reduced
to mere one-liner wrappers around the newly added function, keep these
helpers still, because users' completion functions out there might depend
on them. And they keep their callers a tad easier to read, too.
Add tests for the pretty alias and alias helper to show that they work
as before; not for the remote groups query, though, because that's not
extracted into a helper function and it's not worth the effort to do so
for a sole callsite.

If there is a failure to lock a reference that is likely caused by a
D/F conflict (e.g., trying to lock "refs/foo/bar" when reference
"refs/foo" already exists), invoke verify_refname_available() to try
to generate a more helpful error message.
That function might not detect an error. For example, some
non-reference file might be blocking the deletion of an
otherwise-empty directory tree, or there might be a race with another
process that just deleted the offending reference. In such cases,
generate the strerror-based error message like before.
Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
If two references that D/F conflict (e.g., "refs/foo" and
"refs/foo/bar") are created in a single transaction, the old code
discovered the problem only after the "commit" phase of
ref_transaction_commit() had already begun. This could leave some
references updated and others not, which violates the promise of
atomicity.
Instead, check for such conflicts during the "locking" phase:
* Teach is_refname_available() to take an "extras" parameter that can
contain extra reference names with which the specified refname must
not conflict.
* Change lock_ref_sha1_basic() to take an "extras" parameter, which it
passes through to is_refname_available().
* Change ref_transaction_commit() to pass "affected_refnames" to
lock_ref_sha1_basic() as its "extras" argument.
This change fixes a test case in t1404.
This code is a bit stricter than it needs to be. We could conceivably
allow reference "refs/foo/bar" to be created in the same transaction
as "refs/foo" is deleted (or vice versa). But that would be
complicated to implement, because it is not possible to lock
"refs/foo/bar" while "refs/foo" exists as a loose reference, but on
the other hand we don't want to delete some references before adding
others (because that could leave a gap during which required objects
are unreachable). There is also a complication that reflog files'
paths can conflict.
Any less-strict implementation would probably require tricks like the
packing of all references before the start of the real transaction, or
the use of temporary intermediate reference names.
So for now let's accept too-strict checks. Some reference update
transactions will be rejected unnecessarily, but they will be rejected
in their entirety rather than leaving the repository in an
intermediate state, as would happen now.
Please note that there is still one kind of D/F conflict that is *not*
handled correctly. If two processes are running at the same time, and
one tries to create "refs/foo" at the same time that the other tries
to create "refs/foo/bar", then they can race with each other. Both
processes can obtain their respective locks ("refs/foo.lock" and
"refs/foo/bar.lock"), proceed to the "commit" phase of
ref_transaction_commit(), and then the slower process will discover
that it cannot rename its lockfile into place (after possibly having
committed changes to other references). There appears to be no way to
fix this race without changing the locking policy, which in turn would
require a change to *all* Git clients.
Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
Add some tests of reference D/F conflicts (by which I mean the fact
that references like "refs/foo" and "refs/foo/bar" are not allowed to
coexist) in the context of reference transactions.
The test of creating two conflicting references in the same
transaction fails, leaving the transaction half-completed. This will
be fixed later in this patch series.
Please note that the error messages emitted in the case of conflicts
are not very user-friendly. In particular, when the conflicts involve
loose references, then the errors are reported as
error: there are still refs under 'refs/foo'
fatal: Cannot lock the ref 'refs/foo'.
or
error: unable to resolve reference refs/foo/bar: Not a directory
fatal: Cannot lock the ref 'refs/foo/bar'.
This is because lock_ref_sha1_basic() fails while trying to lock the
new reference, before it even gets to the is_refname_available()
check. This situation will also be improved later in this patch
series.

A typical setup under Windows is to set core.eol to CRLF, and text
files are marked as "text" in .gitattributes, or core.autocrlf is
set to true.
After 4d4813a5 "git blame" no longer works as expected for such a
set-up. Every line is annotated as "Not Committed Yet", even though
the working directory is clean. This is because the commit removed
the conversion in blame.c for all files, with or without CRLF in the
repo.
Having files with CRLF in the repo and core.autocrlf=input is a
temporary situation, and the files, if committed as is, will be
normalized in the repo, which _will_ be a notable change. Blaming
them with "Not Committed Yet" is the right result. Revert commit
4d4813a5 which was a misguided attempt to "solve" a non-problem.
Add two test cases in t8003 to verify the correct CRLF conversion.

We had this in "git merge" manual for eternity:
'git merge' <msg> HEAD <commit>...
[This] syntax (<msg> `HEAD` <commit>...) is supported for
historical reasons. Do not use it from the command line or in
new scripts. It is the same as `git merge -m <msg> <commit>...`.
With the update to "git merge" to make it understand what is
recorded in FETCH_HEAD directly, including Octopus merge cases, we
now can rewrite the use of this syntax in "git pull" with a simple
"git merge FETCH_HEAD".
Also there are quite a few fallouts in the test scripts, and it
turns out that "git cvsimport" also uses this old syntax to record
a merge.
Judging from this result, I would not be surprised if dropping the
support of the old syntax broke scripts people have written and been
relying on for the past ten years. But at least we can start the
deprecation process by throwing a warning message when the syntax is
used.
With luck, we might be able to drop the support in a few years.

The collect_parents() function now is responsible for
1. parsing the commits given on the command line into a list of
commits to be merged;
2. filtering these parents into independent ones; and
3. optionally calling fmt_merge_msg() via prepare_merge_message()
to prepare an auto-generated merge log message, using fake
contents that FETCH_HEAD would have had if these commits were
fetched from the current repository with "git pull . $args..."
Make "git merge FETCH_HEAD" to be the same as the traditional
git merge "$(git fmt-merge-msg <.git/FETCH_HEAD)" $commits
invocation of the command in "git pull", where $commits are the ones
that appear in FETCH_HEAD that are not marked as not-for-merge, by
making it do a bit more, specifically:
- noticing "FETCH_HEAD" is the only "commit" on the command line
and picking the commits that are not marked as not-for-merge as
the list of commits to be merged (substitute for step #1 above);
- letting the resulting list fed to step #2 above;
- doing the step #3 above, using the contents of the FETCH_HEAD
instead of fake contents crafted from the list of commits parsed
in the step #1 above.
Note that this changes the semantics. "git merge FETCH_HEAD" has
always behaved as if the first commit in the FETCH_HEAD file were
directly specified on the command line, creating a two-way merge
whose auto-generated merge log said "merge commit xyz". With this
change, if the previous fetch was to grab multiple branches (e.g.
"git fetch $there topic-a topic-b"), the new world order is to
create an octopus, behaving as if "git pull $there topic-a topic-b"
were run. This is a deliberate change to make that happen, and
can be seen in the changes to t3033 tests.

On some systems (like OS X), if sed encounters input without
a trailing newline, it will silently add it. As a result,
"git filter-branch" on such systems may silently rewrite
commit messages that omit a trailing newline. Even though
this is not something we generate ourselves with "git
commit", it's better for filter-branch to preserve the
original data as closely as possible.
We're using sed here only to strip the header fields from
the commit object. We can accomplish the same thing with a
shell loop. Since shell "read" calls are slow (usually one
syscall per byte), we use "cat" once we've skipped past the
header. Depending on the size of your commit messages, this
is probably faster (you pay the cost to fork, but then read
the data in saner-sized chunks). This idea is shamelessly
stolen from Junio.

When rebase--interactive processes a task, it removes the item from
the todo list and appends it to another list of executed tasks. If a
pick (this includes squash and fixup) fails before the index has
recorded the changes, take the corresponding item and put it on the todo
list again. Otherwise, the changes introduced by the scheduled commit
would be lost.
That kind of decision is possible since the cherry-pick command
signals why it failed to apply the changes of the given commit. Either
the changes are recorded in the index using a conflict (return value 1)
and rebase does not continue until they are resolved or the changes
are not recorded in the index (return value neither 0 nor 1) and
rebase has to try again with the same task.

The git_connect function has code to handle plink and tortoiseplink
specially, as they require different command line arguments from
OpenSSH (-P instead of -p for ports; tortoiseplink additionally requires
-batch). However, the match was done by checking for "plink" anywhere
in the string, which led to a GIT_SSH value containing "uplink" being
treated as an invocation of putty's plink.
Improve the check by looking for "plink" or "tortoiseplink" (or those
names suffixed with ".exe") only in the final component of the path.
This has the downside that a program such as "plink-0.63" would no
longer be recognized, but the increased robustness is likely worth it.

One of the tests in t5601 used single quotes to delimit an argument
containing spaces. However, this caused test_expect_success to be
passed three arguments instead of two, which in turn caused the test
name to be treated as a prerequisite instead of a test name. As there
was no prerequisite called "bracketed hostnames are still ssh", the test
was always skipped.
Because this test was always skipped, the fact that it passed the
arguments in the wrong order was obscured. Use double quotes inside the
test and reorder the arguments so that the test runs and properly
reflects the arguments that are passed to ssh.

Perforce allows client side file/directory remapping through

To support this functionality while branch detection is
enabled it is important to determine the branch location in
the workspace such that the correct files are patched before
Perforce submission. Perforce provides a command that
facilitates this process: p4 where.
This patch does two things to fix improve file location
detection when git-p4 has branch detection and use of client
spec enabled:
1. Enable usage of "p4 where" when Perforce branches exist
in the git repository, even when client specification is
used. This makes use of the already existing function
p4Where.
2. Allow identifying partial matches of the branch's depot
path while processing the output of "p4 where". For
robustness, paths will only match if ending in "/...".

If you have staged contents in your index and run "stash
apply", we may hit a conflict and put new entries into the
index. Recovering to your original state is difficult at
that point, because tools like "git reset --keep" will blow
away anything staged. We can make this safer by refusing to
apply when there are staged changes.
It's possible we could provide better tooling here, as "git
stash apply" should be writing only conflicts to the index
(so we know that any stage-0 entries are potentially
precious). But it is the odd duck; most "mergy" commands
will update the index for cleanly merged entries, and it is
not worth updating our tooling to support this use case
which is unlikely to be of interest (besides which, we would
still need to block a dirty index for "stash apply --index",
since that case _would_ be ambiguous).

One of the tests in t3903 wants to make sure that applying a

are working tree changes to "other-file". To do so, it adds
"other-file" to the index (since otherwise it is an
untracked file, voiding the purpose of the test).
But as we are about to refactor the dirty-index handling,
and as this test does not actually care about having a dirty

of "other-file" into the setup phase, so we can have _just_
