I did this:
$ git tag -s test-sign
gpg: skipped "Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com>": secret key not available
gpg: signing failed: secret key not available
failed to sign the tag with GPG.
The problem is that I have used the comment field in my key's UID
definition.
$ gpg --list-keys andy
pub 1024D/4F712F6D 2003-08-14
uid Andy Parkins (Google) <andyparkins@gmail.com>
So when git-tag looks for "Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com>";
obviously it's not going to be found.
There shouldn't be a requirement that I use the same form of my name in
my git repository and my gpg key - I might want to be formal (Andrew) in
my gpg key and informal (Andy) in the repository. Further I might have
multiple keys in my keyring, and might want to use one that doesn't
match up with the address I use in commit messages.
This patch adds a configuration entry "user.signingkey" which, if
present, will be passed to the "-u" switch for gpg, allowing the tag
signing key to be overridden. If the entry is not present, the fallback
is the original method, which means existing behaviour will continue
untouched.

OK, its official, I'm not reading documentation as well as I should be.
Core Git's merge.summary configuration option is used to control the
generation of the text appearing within the merge commit itself. It
is not (and never has been) used to default the --no-summary command
line option, which disables the diffstat at the end of the merge.
I completely blame Git for naming two unrelated options almost the
exact same thing. But its my own fault for allowing git-gui to
confuse the two.

When on a non-tag commit, git-describe normally outputs descriptions of
the form
v1.0.0-g1234567890
Some scripts (for example the update hook script) might just want to
know the name of the nearest tag, so they then have to do
x=$(git-describe HEAD | sed 's/-g*//')
This is costly, but more importantly is fragile as it is relying on the
output format of git-describe, which we would then have to maintain
forever.
This patch adds support for setting the --abbrev option to zero. In
that case git-describe does as it always has, but outputs only the
nearest found tag instead of a completely unique name. This means that
scripts would not have to parse the output format and won't need
changing if the git-describe suffix is ever changed.

Changed our private merge summary config option to be the same as the

"Show Merge Summary" flag in git-gui will have the same effect on
the command line.
In the same vein I've also added merge.verbosity to the gui options,
allowing the user to adjust the verbosity level of the recursive
merge strategy. I happen to like level 1 and suggest that other users
use that, but level 2 is the core Git default right now so we'll use
the same default in git-gui.
Unfortunately it appears as though core Git has broken support for
the merge.summary option, even though its still in the documentation
For the time being we should pass along --no-summary to git-merge if
merge.summary is false.

If an octopus merge goes horribly wrong git-merge will leave the
working directory and index dirty, but will not leave behind a
MERGE_HEAD file for a later commit. Consequently we won't know
its a merge commit and instead would let the user resolve the
conflicts and commit a single-parent commit, which is wrong.
So now if an octopus merge fails we notify the user that the
merge did not work, tell them we will reset the working directory,
and suggest that they merge one branch at a time. This prevents
the user from committing a bad octopus merge.

To allow users to merge local heads and tracking branches we now offer
a dialog which lets the user select 1-15 branches and merge them using
the stock `git merge` Grand Unified Merge Driver.
Originally I had wanted to implement this merge internally within git-gui
as I consider GUMD to be mostly Porcelain-ish, but the truth is it does
its job exceedingly well and its a relatively complex chunk of code.
I'll probably circle back later and try to remove the invocation of GUMD
from git-gui, but right now it lets me get the job done faster.
Users cannot start a merge if they are currently in the middle of one,
or if they are amending a commit. Trying to do either is just stupid
and should be stopped as early as possible.
I've also made it simple for users to startup a gitk session prior to
a merge by offering a Visualize button which runs `gitk $revs --not HEAD`,
where $revs is the list of branches currently selected in the merge
dialog. This makes it quite simple to find out what the damage will
be to the current branch if you were to carry out the currently proposed
merge.

Technically the new git-gc command is strictly Porcelain; its invoking
multiple plumbing commands to do its work. Since git-gui tries to not
rely on Porclain we shouldn't be invoking git-gc directly, instead we
should perform its tasks on our own.
To make this easy I've created console_chain, which takes a list of
tasks to perform and runs them all in the same console window. If
any individual task fails then the chain stops running and the window
shows a failure bar. Only once all tasks have been completed will it
invoke console_done with a successful status.

Because I want to be able to run multiple output-producing commands
in a single 'console' window within git-gui I'm refactoring the
console handling routines to require the "after" argument of console_exec.
This should specify a procedure to execute which will receive two args,
the first is the console window handle and the second is the status of
the last command (0 on failure, 1 on success).
A new procedure console_done can be passed to the last console_exec
command to forward perform all cleanup and enable the Close button.
Its status argument is used to update the final status bar on the
bottom of the console window.

bug turned out to be caused by a foreach loop going through all file

searched and the file was contained in that file list the loop broke
out, leaving $w set to $ui_index when it had been set by the caller
to $ui_workdir. Silly bug caused by using a parameter as a loop

The "contains" algorithm runs into an infinite loop if the needle string
has zero length. The loop could be modified to handle this, but it makes
more sense to simply have an empty needle return no matches. Thus, a
command like
git log -S
produces no output.
We place the check at the top of the function so that we get the same
results with or without --pickaxe-regex. Note that until now,
git log -S --pickaxe-regex
would match everything, not nothing.
Arguably, an empty pickaxe string should simply produce an error
message; however, this is still a useful assertion to add to the
algorithm at this layer of the code.

The code that uses committer_info() in reflog can barf and die
whenever it is asked to update a ref. And I do not think
calling ignore_missing_committer_name() upfront like recent
receive-pack did in the aplication is a reasonable workaround.
What the patch does.
- git_committer_info() takes one parameter. It used to be "if
this is true, then die() if the name is not available due to
bad GECOS, otherwise issue a warning once but leave the name
empty". The reason was because we wanted to prevent bad
commits from being made by git-commit-tree (and its
callers). The value 0 is only used by "git var -l".
Now it takes -1, 0 or 1. When set to -1, it does not
complain but uses the pw->pw_name when name is not
available. Existing 0 and 1 values mean the same thing as
they used to mean before. 0 means issue warnings and leave
it empty, 1 means barf and die.
- ignore_missing_committer_name() and its existing caller
(receive-pack, to set the reflog) have been removed.
- git-format-patch, to come up with the phoney message ID when
asked to thread, now passes -1 to git_committer_info(). This
codepath uses only the e-mail part, ignoring the name. It
used to barf and die. The other call in the same program
when asked to add signed-off-by line based on committer
identity still passes 1 to make sure it barfs instead of
adding a bogus s-o-b line.
- log_ref_write in refs.c, to come up with the name to record
who initiated the ref update in the reflog, passes -1. It
used to barf and die.
The last change means that git-update-ref, git-branch, and
commit walker backends can now be used in a repository with
reflog by somebody who does not have the user identity required
to make a commit. They all used to barf and die.
I've run tests and all of them seem to pass, and also tried "git
clone" as a user whose GECOS is empty -- git clone works again
now (it was broken when reflog was enabled by default).
But this definitely needs extra sets of eyeballs.

If a repository was checked out via git-cvsserver and then later a new
file is added to the git repository via some other method; a CVS update
wasn't fetching the new file.
It would be reported as a new file as
A some/dir/newfile.c
but would never appear in the directory.
The problem seems to be that git-cvsserver was treating these two cases
identically, as "A" type results.
1. New file in repository
2. New file locally
In fact, traditionally, case 1 is treated as a "U" result, and case 2
only is treated as an "A" result. "A", should just report that the file
is added locally and then skip that file during an update as there is
(of course) nothing to send.
In both these cases there is no working revision, so the checking for
"is there no working revision" will return true. The test for case 2
needs refining to say "if there is no working revision and no upstream
revision". This patch does just that, leaving case 1 to be handled by
the normal "U" handler.
I've also updated the log message to more accurately describe the
operation. i.e. that "A" means that content is scheduled for addition;
not that it actually has been added.

If we are displaying a diff for a DOS-style (CRLF) formatted file then
the Tk text widget would normally show the CR at the end of every line;
in most fonts this will come out as a square box. Rather than showing
this character we'll tag it with a tag which forces the character to
be elided away, so its not displayed. However since the character is
still within the text buffer we can still obtain it and supply it over
to `git apply` when staging or unstaging an individual hunk, ensuring
that the file contents is always fully preserved as-is.
Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Just like `git-add --interactive` we can now stage and unstage individual
hunks within a file, rather than the entire file at once. This works
on the basic idea of scanning backwards from the mouse position to
find the hunk header, then going forwards to find the end of the hunk.
Everything in that is sent to `git apply --cached`, prefixed by the
diff header lines.
We ignore whitespace errors while applying a hunk, as we expect the
user's pre-commit hook to catch any possible problems. This matches
our existing behavior with regards to adding an entire file with
no whitespace error checking.
Applying hunks means that we now have to capture and save the diff header
lines, rather than chucking them. Not really a big deal, we just needed
a new global to hang onto that current header information. We probably
could have recreated it on demand during apply_hunk but that would mean
we need to implement all of the funny rules about how to encode weird
path names (e.g. ones containing LF) into a diff header so that the
`git apply` process would understand what we are asking it to do. Much
simpler to just store this small amount of data in a global and replay
it when needed.
I'm making absolutely no attempt to correct the line numbers on the
remaining hunk headers after one hunk has been applied. This may
cause some hunks to fail, as the position information would not be
correct. Users can always refresh the current diff before applying a
failing hunk to work around the issue. Perhaps if we ever implement
hunk splitting we could also fix the remaining hunk headers.
Applying hunks directly means that we need to process the diff data in
binary, rather than using the system encoding and an automatic linefeed
translation. This ensures that CRLF formatted files will be able to be
fed directly to `git apply` without failures. Unfortunately it also means
we will see CRs show up in the GUI as ugly little boxes at the end of
each line in a CRLF file.
