HPA noticed that git-rebase fails when changes involve symlinks
in the middle of the hierarchy. Consider:
* The tree state before the patch is applied has arch/x86_64/boot
as a symlink pointing at ../i386/boot/
* The patch tries to remove arch/x86_64/boot symlink, and
create bunch of files there: .gitignore, Makefile, etc.
git-apply tries to be careful while applying patches; it never
touches the working tree until it is convinced that the patch
would apply cleanly. One of the check it does is that when it
knows a path is going to be created by the patch, it runs
lstat() on the path to make sure it does not exist.
This leads to a false alarm. Because we do not touch the
working tree before all the check passes, when we try to make
sure that arch/x86_64/boot/.gitignore does not exist yet, we
haven't removed the arch/x86_64/boot symlink. The lstat() check
ends up seeing arch/i386/boot/.gitignore through the
yet-to-be-removed symlink, and says "Hey, you already have a
file there, but what you fed me is a patch to create a new
file. I am not going to clobber what you have in the working
tree."
We have similar checks to see a file we are going to modify does
exist and match the preimage of the diff, which is done by
directly opening and reading the file.
For a file we are going to delete, we make sure that it does
exist and matches what is going to be removed (a removal patch
records the full preimage, so we check what you have in your
working tree matches it in full -- otherwise we would risk
losing your local changes), which again is done by directly
opening and reading the file.
These checks need to be adjusted so that they are not fooled by
symlinks in the middle.
- To make sure something does not exist, first lstat(). If it
does not exist, it does not, so be happy. If it _does_, we
might be getting fooled by a symlink in the middle, so break
leading paths and see if there are symlinks involved. When
we are checking for a path a/b/c/d, if any of a, a/b, a/b/c
is a symlink, then a/b/c/d does _NOT_ exist, for the purpose
of our test.
This would fix this particular case you saw, and would not
add extra overhead in the usual case.
- To make sure something already exists, first lstat(). If it
does not exist, barf (up to this, we already do). Even if it
does seem to exist, we might be getting fooled by a symlink
in the middle, so make sure leading paths are not symlinks.
This would make the normal codepath much more expensive for
deep trees, which is a bit worrisome.
This patch implements the first side of the check "making sure
it does not exist". The latter "making sure it exists" check is
not done yet, so applying the patch in reverse would still
fail, but we have to start from somewhere.

I'm finding it difficult to work with a 6,000+ line Tcl script
and not go insane while looking for a particular block of code.
Since most of the program is organized into different units of
functionality and not all users will need all units immediately
on startup we can improve things by splitting procs out into
multiple files and let auto_load handle things for us.
This should help not only to better organize the source, but
it may also improve startup times for some users as the Tcl
parser does not need to read as much script before it can show
the UI. In many cases the user can avoid reading at least half
of git-gui now.
Unfortunately we now need a library directory in our runtime
location. This is currently assumed to be $(sharedir)/git-gui/lib
and its expected that the Makefile invoker will setup some sort of
reasonable sharedir value for us, or let us assume its going to be
$(gitexecdir)/../share.
We now also require a tclsh (in TCL_PATH) to just run the Makefile,
as we use tclsh to generate the tclIndex for our lib directory. I'm
hoping this is not an unncessary burden on end-users who are building
from source.
I haven't really made any functionality changes here, this is just a
huge migration of code from one file to many smaller files. All of
the new changes are to setup the library path and install the library
files.

Like core-Git we now track the values that we embed into our shell

This concept was lifted from git.git's Makefile, where a similar
thing was done by Eygene Ryabinkin. Too bad it wasn't just done
here in git-gui from the beginning, as the git.git Makefile support
for GIT-GUI-VARS was really just because git-gui doesn't do it on
its own.

Remove usernames from all commit messages, not just when using svmprops

Create a sysconfdir variable, and use it for ETC_GITCONFIG
ETC_GITCONFIG defaults to $(prefix)/etc/gitconfig, so if you just set
prefix=/usr, you end up with a git that looks in /usr/etc/gitconfig, rather
than /etc/gitconfig as specified by the FHS. Furthermore, setting
ETC_GITCONFIG does not fix the paths to any future system-wide configuration
files.
Factor out the path to the system-wide configuration directory into a variable
sysconfdir, normally set to $(prefix)/etc, but set to /etc when prefix=/usr .
This fixes the prefix=/usr problem for ETC_GITCONFIG, and allows centralized
configuration of any future system-wide configuration files without requiring
further action from package maintainers or other people building and
installing git.

Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
This adds the basic infrastructure to assign attributes to
paths, in a way similar to what the exclusion mechanism does
based on $GIT_DIR/info/exclude and .gitignore files.
An attribute is just a simple string that does not contain any
whitespace. They can be specified in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes
file, and .gitattributes file in each directory.
Each line in these files defines a pattern matching rule.
Similar to the exclusion mechanism, a later match overrides an
earlier match in the same file, and entries from .gitattributes
file in the same directory takes precedence over the ones from
parent directories. Lines in $GIT_DIR/info/attributes file are
used as the lowest precedence default rules.
A line is either a comment (an empty line, or a line that begins
with a '#'), or a rule, which is a whitespace separated list of
tokens. The first token on the line is a shell glob pattern.
The rest are names of attributes, each of which can optionally
be prefixed with '!'. Such a line means "if a path matches this
glob, this attribute is set (or unset -- if the attribute name
is prefixed with '!'). For glob matching, the same "if the
pattern does not have a slash in it, the basename of the path is
matched with fnmatch(3) against the pattern, otherwise, the path
is matched with the pattern with FNM_PATHNAME" rule as the
exclusion mechanism is used.
This does not define what an attribute means. Tying an
attribute to various effects it has on git operation for paths
that have it will be specified separately.

This implements the patch-id computation and recording library,
patch-ids.c, and rewrites the get_patch_ids() function used in
cherry and format-patch to use it, so that they do not pollute
the object namespace. Earlier code threw non-objects into the
in-core object database, and hoped for not getting bitten by
SHA-1 collisions. While it may be practically Ok, it still was

Reliance on /dev/urandom produces test vectors that are, well, random.
This can cause problems impossible to track down when the data is
different from one test invokation to another.

This merge strategy largely piggy-backs on git-merge-recursive.
When merging trees A and B, if B corresponds to a subtree of A,
B is first adjusted to match the tree structure of A, instead of
reading the trees at the same level. This adjustment is also
done to the common ancestor tree.
If you are pulling updates from git-gui repository into git.git
repository, the root level of the former corresponds to git-gui/
subdirectory of the latter. The tree object of git-gui's toplevel
is wrapped in a fake tree object, whose sole entry has name 'git-gui'
and records object name of the true tree, before being used by
the 3-way merge code.
If you are merging the other way, only the git-gui/ subtree of
git.git is extracted and merged into git-gui's toplevel.
The detection of corresponding subtree is done by comparing the
pathnames and types in the toplevel of the tree.
Heuristics galore! That's the git way ;-).
