c4d2539af7 test-lib: add the test_pause convenience function
Since 781f76b15 (test-lib: redirect stdin of tests) you can't simply put a
"bash &&" into a test for debugging purposes anymore. Instead you'll have
to use "bash <&6 >&3 2>&4".

As that invocation is not that easy to remember add the test_pause
convenience function. It invokes "$SHELL_PATH" to provide a sane shell
for the user.

This function also checks if the -v flag is given and will error out if
that is not the case instead of letting the test hang until ^D is pressed.

39ef7fae9a write_remote_refs(): create packed (rather than extra) refs
write_remote_refs() creates new packed refs from references obtained
from the remote repository, which is "out of thin air" as far as the
local repository is concerned.  Previously it did this by creating
"extra" refs, then calling pack_refs() to bake them into the
packed-refs file.  Instead, create packed refs (in the packed
reference cache) directly, then call pack_refs().

Aside from being more logical, this is another step towards removing
extra refs entirely.

e6ed3ca651 ref_array: keep track of whether references are sorted
Keep track of how many entries at the beginning of a ref_array are already
sorted.  In sort_ref_array(), return early if the the array is already
sorted (i.e., if no new references has been appended to the end of the
list since the last call to sort_ref_array()).

Sort ref_arrays only when needed, namely in search_ref_array() and in
do_for_each_ref().  However, never call sort_ref_array() on the
extra_refs, because extra_refs can contain multiple entries with the same
name and because sort_ref_array() not only sorts, but de-dups its
contents.

This change is currently not useful, because entries are not added to
ref_arrays after they are created.  But in a moment they will be...

Implementation note: we could store a binary "sorted" value instead of
an integer, but storing the number of sorted entries leaves the way
open for a couple of possible future optimizations:

* In sort_ref_array(), sort *only* the unsorted entries, then merge
  them with the sorted entries.  This should be faster if most of the
  entries are already sorted.

* Teach search_ref_array() to do a binary search of any sorted
  entries, and if unsuccessful do a linear search of any unsorted
  entries.  This would avoid the need to sort the list every time that
  search_ref_array() is called, and (given some intelligence about how
  often to sort) could significantly improve the speed in certain
  hypothetical usage patterns.

35a71f1402 credential-cache: ignore "connection refused" errors
The credential-cache helper will try to connect to its
daemon over a unix socket. Originally, a failure to do so
was silently ignored, and we would either give up (if
performing a "get" or "erase" operation), or spawn a new
daemon (for a "store" operation).

But since 8ec6c8d, we try to report more errors. We detect a
missing daemon by checking for ENOENT on our connection
attempt.  If the daemon is missing, we continue as before
(giving up or spawning a new daemon). For any other error,
we die and report the problem.

However, checking for ENOENT is not sufficient for a missing
daemon. We might also get ECONNREFUSED if a dead daemon
process left a stale socket. This generally shouldn't
happen, as the daemon cleans up after itself, but the daemon
may not always be given a chance to do so (e.g., power loss,
"kill -9").

The resulting state is annoying not just because the helper
outputs an extra useless message, but because it actually
blocks the helper from spawning a new daemon to replace the
stale socket.

Fix it by checking for ECONNREFUSED.

20e95d0a84 index-pack: eliminate unlimited recursion in get_base_data()
Revese the order of delta applying so that by the time a delta is
applied, its base is either non-delta or already inflated.
get_base_data() is still recursive, but because base's data is always
ready, the inner get_base_data() call never has any chance to call
itself again.

2baad22013 index-pack: eliminate recursion in find_unresolved_deltas
Current find_unresolved_deltas() links all bases together in a form of
tree, using struct base_data, with prev_base pointer to point to
parent node. Then it traverses down from parent to children in
recursive manner with all base_data allocated on stack.

To eliminate recursion, we simply need to put all on heap
(parse_pack_objects and fix_unresolved_deltas). After that, it's
simple non-recursive depth-first traversal loop. Each node also
maintains its own state (ofs and ref indices) to iterate over all
children nodes.

So we process one node:

 - if it returns a new (child) node (a parent base), we link it to our
   tree, then process the new node.

 - if it returns nothing, the node is done, free it. We go back to
   parent node and resume whatever it's doing.

and do it until we have no nodes to process.

4838237cb7 diff-index: enable recursive pathspec matching in unpack_trees
The pathspec structure has a few bits of data to drive various operation
modes after we unified the pathspec matching logic in various codepaths.
For example, max_depth field is there so that "git grep" can limit the
output for files found in limited depth of tree traversal. Also in order
to show just the surface level differences in "git diff-tree", recursive
field stops us from descending into deeper level of the tree structure
when it is set to false, and this also affects pathspec matching when
we have wildcards in the pathspec.

The diff-index has always wanted the recursive behaviour, and wanted to
match pathspecs without any depth limit. But we forgot to do so when we
updated tree_entry_interesting() logic to unify the pathspec matching
logic.

6ab260809b git-show-ref: fix escaping in asciidoc source
Two "^" characters were incorrectly being interpreted as markup for
superscripting.  Fix them by writing them as attribute references
"{caret}".

Although a single "^" character in a paragraph cannot be
misinterpreted in this way, also write other "^" characters as
"{caret}" in the interest of good hygiene (unless they are in literal
paragraphs, of course, in which context attribute references are not
recognized).

Spell "{}" consistently, namely *not* quoted as "\{\}".  Since the
braces are empty, they cannot be interpreted as an attribute
reference, and either spelling is OK.  So arbitrarily choose one
variation and use it consistently.

15f07e061e thin-pack: try harder to use preferred base objects as base
When creating a pack using objects that reside in existing packs, we try
to avoid recomputing futile delta between an object (trg) and a candidate
for its base object (src) if they are stored in the same packfile, and trg
is not recorded as a delta already. This heuristics makes sense because it
is likely that we tried to express trg as a delta based on src but it did
not produce a good delta when we created the existing pack.

As the pack heuristics prefer producing delta to remove data, and Linus's
law dictates that the size of a file grows over time, we tend to record
the newest version of the file as inflated, and older ones as delta
against it.

When creating a thin-pack to transfer recent history, it is likely that we
will try to send an object that is recorded in full, as it is newer.  But
the heuristics to avoid recomputing futile delta effectively forbids us
from attempting to express such an object as a delta based on another
object. Sending an object in full is often more expensive than sending a
suboptimal delta based on other objects, and it is even more so if we
could use an object we know the receiving end already has (i.e. preferred
base object) as the delta base.

Tweak the recomputation avoidance logic, so that we do not punt on
computing delta against a preferred base object.

The effect of this change can be seen on two simulated upload-pack
workloads. The first is based on 44 reflog entries from my git.git
origin/master reflog, and represents the packs that kernel.org sent me git
updates for the past month or two. The second workload represents much
larger fetches, going from git's v1.0.0 tag to v1.1.0, then v1.1.0 to
v1.2.0, and so on.

The table below shows the average generated pack size and the average CPU
time consumed for each dataset, both before and after the patch:

                  dataset
            | reflog | tags
---------------------------------
     before | 53358  | 2750977
size  after | 32398  | 2668479
     change |   -39% |      -3%
---------------------------------
     before |  0.18  | 1.12
CPU   after |  0.18  | 1.15
     change |    +0% |      +3%

This patch makes a much bigger difference for packs with a shorter slice
of history (since its effect is seen at the boundaries of the pack) though
it has some benefit even for larger packs.

the '\' line flushed the buffers, and the - and + lines were never

A proper fix would defer such markers until the end of the hunk.
However, word-diff is inherently whitespace-ignoring, so as a cheap
fix simply ignore the marker (and hide it from the output).

We use a prefix match for '\ ' to parallel the logic in
apply.c:parse_fragment().  We currently do not localize this string
(just accept other variants of it in git-apply), but this should be
future-proof.

calling into sequencer_pick_revisions().  In the future, we can write
a new "foo" builtin that calls into the sequencer like:

  memset(&opts, 0, sizeof(opts));
  opts.action = REPLAY_FOO;
  opts.revisions = xmalloc(sizeof(*opts.revs));

unix_stream_connect and unix_stream_listen return -1 on error, with
errno set by the failing underlying call to allow the caller to write
a useful diagnosis.

Unfortunately the error path involves a few system calls itself, such
as close(), that can themselves touch errno.

This is not as worrisome as it might sound.  If close() fails, this
just means substituting one meaningful error message for another,
which is perfectly fine.  However, when the call _succeeds_, it is
allowed to (and sometimes might) clobber errno along the way with some
undefined value, so it is good higiene to save errno and restore it
immediately before returning to the caller.  Do so.

82553cbb08 mailinfo documentation: accurately describe non -k case
Since its very first description of -k, the documentation for
git-mailinfo claimed that (in the case without -k) after cleaning up
bracketed strings [blah], it would insert [PATCH].

It doesn't; on the contrary, one of the important jobs of mailinfo is
to remove those strings.

Since we're already there, rewrite the paragraph to give a complete
enumeration of all the transformations.  Specifically, it was missing
the whitespace normalization (run of isspace(c) -> ' ') and the
removal of leading ':'.

42d8c27990 git-p4: add tests demonstrating spec overlay ambiguities
Introduce new tests that look more closely at overlay situations
when there are conflicting files.  Five of these are broken.
Document the brokenness.

This is a fundamental problem with how git-p4 only "borrows" a
client spec.  At some sync operation, a new change can contain
a file which is already in the repo or explicitly deleted through
another mapping.  To sort this out would involve listing all the
files in the client spec to find one with a higher priority.
While this is not too hard for the initial import, subsequent
sync operations would be very costly.

2ea09b5ace git-p4: adjust test to adhere to stricter useClientSpec
This test relied on what now is seen as broken behavior
in --use-client-spec.  Change it to make sure it works
according to the new behavior as described in
ecb7cf9 (git-p4: rewrite view handling, 2012-01-02) and
c700b68 (git-p4: test client view handling, 2012-01-02).
