Not all platforms have getrlimit(), but there are other ways to see

getrlimit() is unavailable, fall back to sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX) if
available, and use OPEN_MAX from <limits.h>.

01d4721565 Make 'git submodule update --force' always check out submodules.
Currently, it will only do a checkout if the sha1 registered in the containing
repository doesn't match the HEAD of the submodule, regardless of whether the
submodule is dirty.  As discussed on the mailing list, the '--force' flag is a
strong indicator that the state of the submodule is suspect, and should be reset
to HEAD.

f8750a0ea9 mergetool: style fixes
This script is one of the sizeable ones that tempted people to copy
its "neibouring style" in their new code, but was littered with
styles incompatible with our style guide.

 - use one tab, not four spaces, per indent level;

 - long lines can be wrapped after '|', '&&', or '||' for
   readability.

 - structures like "if .. then .. else .. fi", "while .. do .. done"
   are split into lines in such a way that does not require
   unnecessary semicolon.

 - case, esac and case-arms align at the same column.

003c84f6d2 specifying ranges: we did not mean to make ".." an empty set
Either end of revision range operator can be omitted to default to HEAD,
as in "origin.." (what did I do since I forked) or "..origin" (what did
they do since I forked).  But the current parser interprets ".."  as an
empty range "HEAD..HEAD", and worse yet, because ".." does exist on the
filesystem, we get this annoying output:

  $ cd Documentation/howto
  $ git log .. ;# give me recent commits that touch Documentation/ area.
  fatal: ambiguous argument '..': both revision and filename
  Use '--' to separate filenames from revisions

Surely we could say "git log ../" or even "git log -- .." to disambiguate,
but we shouldn't have to.

55b38a48e2 warn_on_inaccessible(): a helper to warn on inaccessible paths
The previous series introduced warnings to multiple places, but it
could become tiring to see the warning on the same path over and
over again during a single run of Git.  Making just one function
responsible for issuing this warning, we could later choose to keep
track of which paths we issued a warning (it would involve a hash
table of paths after running them through real_path() or something)
in order to reduce noise.

Right now we do not know if the noise reduction is necessary, but it
still would be a good code reduction/sharing anyway.

For the case of ENOENT, this is fine, as the presence of the

79dc2d0b02 test: git-stash conflict sets up rerere
Add a test to make sure that a conflicted "stash apply" invokes
rerere to record the conflicts and resolve the the files it can
(the current code doesn't, so the test is marked as failing).

Without correct state recorded for rerere, mergetool may be
confused, causing it to think no files have conflicts even though
they do.  This condition is not verified by this test since a
subsequent commit will change the behavior to enable rerere for
stash conflicts.

Also, the next test expected us to finish up with a reset, which is
impossible to do if we fail (as we must) and it's an unreasonable
expectation anyway.  Begin the next test with a reset of its own
instead.

cacfc09ba8 gitweb: URL-decode $my_url/$my_uri when stripping PATH_INFO
When gitweb is used as a DirectoryIndex, it attempts to strip
PATH_INFO on its own, as $cgi->url() fails to do so.

However, it fails to account for the fact that PATH_INFO has
already been URL-decoded by the web server, but the value
returned by $cgi->url() has not been. This causes the stripping
to fail whenever the URL contains encoded characters.

To see this in action, setup gitweb as a DirectoryIndex and
then use it on a repository with a directory containing a
space in the name. Navigate to tree view, examine the gitweb
generated html and you'll see a link such as:

  <a href="/test.git/tree/HEAD:/directory with spaces">directory with spaces</a>

When clicked on, the browser will URL-encode this link, giving
a $cgi->url() of the form:

   /test.git/tree/HEAD:/directory%20with%20spaces

While PATH_INFO is:

   /test.git/tree/HEAD:/directory with spaces

Fix this by calling unescape() on both $my_url and $my_uri before
stripping PATH_INFO from them.

51bbccfd1b send-email: validate & reconfirm interactive responses
People answer 'y' to "Who should the emails appear to be from?"  and

for some unknown reason.  While it is possible that your local
username really is "y" and you are sending the mail to your local
colleagues, it is possible, and some might even say it is likely,
that it is a user error.

Fortunately, our interactive prompter already has input validation
mechanism built-in.  Enhance it so that we can optionally reconfirm
and allow the user to pass an input that does not validate, and
"softly" require input to the sender, in-reply-to, and recipient to
contain "@" and "." in this order, which would catch most cases of

be9d0a3a4c Let submodule command exit with error status if path does not exist
Various subcommands of the "git submodule" command exited with 0
status even though the path given by the user did not exist.

The reason behind that was that they all pipe the output of
module_list into the while loop which then does the action on the
paths specified by the commandline. Since the exit code of the
command on the upstream side of the pipe is ignored by the shell,
the status code of "ls-files --error-unmatch" nor "module_list" was
not propagated.

In case ls-files returns with an error code, we write a special
string that is not possible in non error situations, and no other
output, so that the downstream can detect the error and die with an
error code.

The error message that there is an unmatched pathspec comes through
stderr directly from ls-files. So the user still gets a hint whats going
on.

9442710801 parse_feature_request: make it easier to see feature values
We already take care to parse key/value capabilities like
"foo=bar", but the code does not provide a good way of
actually finding out what is on the right-hand side of the
"=".

A server using "parse_feature_request" could accomplish this
with some extra parsing. You must skip past the "key"
portion manually, check for "=" versus NUL or space, and
then find the length by searching for the next space (or
NUL).  But clients can't even do that, since the
"server_supports" interface does not even return the
pointer.

Instead, let's have our parser share more information by
providing a pointer to the value and its length. The
"parse_feature_value" function returns a pointer to the
feature's value portion, along with the length of the value.
If the feature is missing, NULL is returned. If it does not
have an "=", then a zero-length value is returned.

Similarly, "server_feature_value" behaves in the same way,
but always checks the static server_feature_list variable.

We can then implement "server_supports" in terms of
"server_feature_value". We cannot implement the original
"parse_feature_request" in terms of our new function,
because it returned a pointer to the beginning of the
feature. However, no callers actually cared about the value
of the returned pointer, so we can simplify it to a boolean
just as we do for "server_supports".

61b472ed8b git svn: reset invalidates the memoized mergeinfo caches
Since v1.7.0-rc2~11 (git-svn: persistent memoization, 2010-01-30),
git-svn has maintained some private per-repository caches in
.git/svn/.caches to avoid refetching and recalculating some
mergeinfo-related information with every 'git svn fetch'.

This memoization can cause problems, e.g consider the following case:

SVN repo:

  ... - a - b - c - m  <- trunk
          \        /
            d  -  e    <- branch1

The Git import of the above repo is at commit 'a' and doesn't know about
the branch1. In case of an 'git svn rebase', only the trunk of the
SVN repo is imported. During the creation of the git commit 'm', git svn
uses the svn:mergeinfo property and tries to find the corresponding git
commit 'e' to create 'm' with 'c' and 'e' as parents. But git svn rebase
only imports the current branch so commit 'e' is not imported.
Therefore git svn fails to create commit 'm' as a merge commit, because one
of its parents is not known to git. The imported history looks like this:

  ... - a - b - c - m  <- trunk

A later 'git svn fetch' to import all branches can't rewrite the commit 'm'
to add 'e' as a parent and to make it a real git merge commit, because it
was already imported.

That's why the imported history misses the merge and looks like this:

  ... - a - b - c - m  <- trunk
          \
            d  -  e    <- branch1

Right now the only known workaround for importing 'm' as a merge is to
force reimporting 'm' again from SVN, e.g. via

  $ git svn reset --revision $(git find-rev $c)
  $ git svn fetch

Sadly, this is where the behavior has regressed: git svn reset doesn't
invalidate the old mergeinfo cache, which is no longer valid for the
reimport, which leads to 'm' beeing imprted with only 'c' as parent.

As solution to this problem, this commit invalidates the mergeinfo cache
to force correct recalculation of the parents.

During development of this patch, several ways for invalidating the cache
where considered. One of them is to use Memoize::flush_cache, which will
call the CLEAR method on the underlying Memoize persistency implementation.
Sadly, neither Memoize::Storable nor the newer Memoize::YAML module
introduced in 68f532f4ba could optionally be used implement the
CLEAR method, so this is not an option.

Reseting the internal hash used to store the memoized values has the same
problem, because it calls the non-existing CLEAR method of the
underlying persistency layer, too.

Considering this and taking into account the different implementations
of the memoization modules, where Memoize::Storable is not in our control,
implementing the missing CLEAR method is not an option, at least not if
Memoize::Storable is still used.

Therefore the easiest solution to clear the cache is to delete the files
on disk in 'git svn reset'. Normally, deleting the files behind the back
of the memoization module would be problematic, because the in-memory
representation would still exist and contain wrong data. Fortunately, the
memoization is active in memory only for a small portion of the code.
Invalidating the cache by deleting the files on disk if it isn't active
should be safe.

e48fb750f5 git svn: handle errors and concurrent commits in dcommit
dcommit didn't handle errors returned by SVN and coped very
poorly with concurrent commits that appear in SVN repository
while dcommit was running. In both cases it left git repository
in inconsistent state: index (which was reset with `git reset
--mixed' after a successful commit to SVN) no longer matched the
checkouted tree, when the following commit failed or needed to be
rebased. See http://bugs.debian.org/676904 for examples.

This patch fixes the issues by:
- introducing error handler for dcommit. The handler will try
  to rebase or reset working tree before returning error to the
  end user. dcommit_rebase function was extracted out of cmd_dcommit
  to ensure consistency between cmd_dcommit and the error handler.
- calling `git reset --mixed' only once after all patches are
  successfully committed to SVN. This ensures index is not touched
  for most of the time of dcommit run.

d50c387163 do not send client agent unless server does first
Commit ff5effdf taught both clients and servers of the git protocol
to send an "agent" capability that just advertises their version for
statistics and debugging purposes.  The protocol-capabilities.txt
document however indicates that the client's advertisement is
actually a response, and should never include capabilities not
mentioned in the server's advertisement.

Adding the unconditional advertisement in the server programs was
OK, then, but the clients broke the protocol.  The server
implementation of git-core itself does not care, but at least one
does: the Google Code git server (or any server using Dulwich), will
hang up with an internal error upon seeing an unknown capability.

Instead, each client must record whether we saw an agent string from
the server, and respond with its agent only if the server mentioned
it first.

ca8e127c9b send-pack: fix capability-sending logic
If we have capabilities to send to the server, we send the
regular "want" line followed by a NUL, then the
capabilities; otherwise, we do not even send the NUL.

However, when checking whether we want to send the "quiet"
capability, we check args->quiet, which is wrong. That flag
only tells us whether the client side wanted to be quiet,
not whether the server supports it (originally, in c207e34f,
it meant both; however, that was later split into two flags
by 01fdc21f).

We still check the right flag when actually printing
"quiet", so this could only have two effects:

  1. We might send the trailing NUL when we do not otherwise
     need to. In theory, an antique pre-capability
     implementation of git might choke on this (since the
     client is instructed never to respond with capabilities
     that the server has not first advertised).

  2. We might also want to send the quiet flag if the
     args->progress flag is false, but this code path would
     not trigger in that instance.

In practice, it almost certainly never matters. The
report-status capability dates back to 2005. Any real-world
server is going to advertise that, and we will always
respond with at least that capability.
