b3c96fb158 split-index: strip pathname of on-disk replaced entries
We know the positions of replaced entries via the replace bitmap in
"link" extension, so the "name" path does not have to be stored (it's
still in the shared index). With this, we also have a way to
distinguish additions vs replacements at load time and can catch
broken "link" extensions.

5fc2fc8fa2 read-cache: split-index mode
This split-index mode is designed to keep write cost proportional to
the number of changes the user has made, not the size of the work
tree. (Read cost is another matter, to be dealt separately.)

This mode stores index info in a pair of $GIT_DIR/index and
$GIT_DIR/sharedindex.<SHA-1>. sharedindex is large and unchanged over
time while "index" is smaller and updated often. Format details are in
index-format.txt, although not everything is implemented in this
patch.

Shared indexes are not automatically removed, because it's unclear if
the shared index is needed by any (even temporary) indexes by just
looking at it. After a while you'll collect stale shared indexes. The
good news is one shared index is useable for long, until
$GIT_DIR/index becomes too big and sluggish that the new shared index
must be created.

The safest way to clean shared indexes is to turn off split index
mode, so shared files are all garbage, delete them all, then turn on
split index mode again.

9af098c29b Merge branch 'ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race'
Read-only operations such as "git status" that internally refreshes
the index write out the refreshed index to the disk to optimize
future accesses to the working tree, but this could race with a
"read-write" operation that modify the index while it is running.
Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.

Duy raised a good point that we may need to do the same for the
normal writeout codepath, not just the "opportunistic" update
codepath.  While that is true, nobody sane would be running two
simultaneous operations that are clearly write-oriented competing
with each other against the same index file.  So in that sense that
can be done as a less urgent follow-up for this topic.

84c9dc2c5a commit: allow core.commentChar=auto for character auto selection
When core.commentChar is "auto", the comment char starts with '#' as
in default but if it's already in the prepared message, find another
char in a small subset. This should stop surprises because git strips
some lines unexpectedly.

Note that git is not smart enough to recognize '#' as the comment char
in custom templates and convert it if the final comment char is
different. It thinks '#' lines in custom templates as part of the
commit message. So don't use this with custom templates.

ff0a80af72 let clang use the constant-return error() macro
Commit e208f9c converted error() into a macro to make its
constant return value more apparent to calling code.  Commit
5ded807 prevents us using this macro with clang, since
clang's -Wunused-value is smart enough to realize that the
constant "-1" is useless in some contexts.

However, since the last commit puts the constant behind an
inline function call, this is enough to prevent the
-Wunused-value warning on both modern gcc and clang. So we
can now re-enable the macro when compiling with clang.

Tested with clang 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5.

87fe5df365 inline constant return from error() function
Commit e208f9c introduced a macro to turn error() calls
into:

  (error(), -1)

to make the constant return value more visible to the
calling code (and thus let the compiler make better
decisions about the code).

This works well for code like:

  return error(...);

but the "-1" is superfluous in code that just calls error()
without caring about the return value. In older versions of
gcc, that was fine, but gcc 4.9 complains with -Wunused-value.

We can work around this by encapsulating the constant return
value in a static inline function, as gcc specifically
avoids complaining about unused function returns unless the
function has been specifically marked with the
warn_unused_result attribute.

We also use the same trick for config_error_nonbool and
opterror, which learned the same error technique in a469a10.

426ddeead6 read-cache.c: verify index file before we opportunistically update it
Before we proceed to opportunistically update the index (often done
by an otherwise read-only operation like "git status" and "git diff"
that internally refreshes the index), we must verify that the
current index file is the same as the one that we read earlier
before we took the lock on it, in order to avoid a possible race.

In the example below git-status does "opportunistic update" and
git-rebase updates the index, but the race can happen in general.

  1. process A calls git-rebase (or does anything that uses the index)

  2. process A applies 1st commit

  3. process B calls git-status (or does anything that updates the index)

  4. process B reads index

  5. process A applies 2nd commit

  6. process B takes the lock, then overwrites process A's changes.

  7. process A applies 3rd commit

As an end result the 3rd commit will have a revert of the 2nd commit.
When process B takes the lock, it needs to make sure that the index
hasn't changed since step 4.

72441af7c4 tree-diff: rework diff_tree() to generate diffs for multiparent cases as well
Previously diff_tree(), which is now named ll_diff_tree_sha1(), was
generating diff_filepair(s) for two trees t1 and t2, and that was
usually used for a commit as t1=HEAD~, and t2=HEAD - i.e. to see changes
a commit introduces.

In Git, however, we have fundamentally built flexibility in that a
commit can have many parents - 1 for a plain commit, 2 for a simple merge,
but also more than 2 for merging several heads at once.

For merges there is a so called combine-diff, which shows diff, a merge
introduces by itself, omitting changes done by any parent. That works
through first finding paths, that are different to all parents, and then
showing generalized diff, with separate columns for +/- for each parent.
The code lives in combine-diff.c .

There is an impedance mismatch, however, in that a commit could
generally have any number of parents, and that while diffing trees, we
divide cases for 2-tree diffs and more-than-2-tree diffs. I mean there
is no special casing for multiple parents commits in e.g.
revision-walker .

That impedance mismatch *hurts* *performance* *badly* for generating
combined diffs - in "combine-diff: optimize combine_diff_path
sets intersection" I've already removed some slowness from it, but from
the timings provided there, it could be seen, that combined diffs still
cost more than an order of magnitude more cpu time, compared to diff for
usual commits, and that would only be an optimistic estimate, if we take
into account that for e.g. linux.git there is only one merge for several
dozens of plain commits.

That slowness comes from the fact that currently, while generating
combined diff, a lot of time is spent computing diff(commit,commit^2)
just to only then intersect that huge diff to almost small set of files
from diff(commit,commit^1).

That's because at present, to compute combine-diff, for first finding
paths, that "every parent touches", we use the following combine-diff
property/definition:

D(A,P1...Pn) = D(A,P1) ^ ... ^ D(A,Pn)      (w.r.t. paths)

where

D(A,P1...Pn) is combined diff between commit A, and parents Pi

and

D(A,Pi) is usual two-tree diff Pi..A

So if any of that D(A,Pi) is huge, tracting 1 n-parent combine-diff as n
1-parent diffs and intersecting results will be slow.

And usually, for linux.git and other topic-based workflows, that
D(A,P2) is huge, because, if merge-base of A and P2, is several dozens
of merges (from A, via first parent) below, that D(A,P2) will be diffing
sum of merges from several subsystems to 1 subsystem.

The solution is to avoid computing n 1-parent diffs, and to find
changed-to-all-parents paths via scanning A's and all Pi's trees
simultaneously, at each step comparing their entries, and based on that
comparison, populate paths result, and deduce we could *skip*
*recursing* into subdirectories, if at least for 1 parent, sha1 of that
dir tree is the same as in A. That would save us from doing significant
amount of needless work.

Such approach is very similar to what diff_tree() does, only there we
deal with scanning only 2 trees simultaneously, and for n+1 tree, the
logic is a bit more complex:

D(T,P1...Pn) calculation scheme
-------------------------------

D(T,P1...Pn) = D(T,P1) ^ ... ^ D(T,Pn)	(regarding resulting paths set)

    D(T,Pj)		- diff between T..Pj
    D(T,P1...Pn)	- combined diff from T to parents P1,...,Pn

We start from all trees, which are sorted, and compare their entries in
lock-step:

     T     P1       Pn
     -     -        -
    |t|   |p1|     |pn|
    |-|   |--| ... |--|      imin = argmin(p1...pn)
    | |   |  |     |  |
    |-|   |--|     |--|
    |.|   |. |     |. |
     .     .        .
     .     .        .

at any time there could be 3 cases:

    1)  t < p[imin];
    2)  t > p[imin];
    3)  t = p[imin].

Schematic deduction of what every case means, and what to do, follows:

1)  t < p[imin]  ->  ∀j t ∉ Pj  ->  "+t" ∈ D(T,Pj)  ->  D += "+t";  t↓

2)  t > p[imin]

    2.1) ∃j: pj > p[imin]  ->  "-p[imin]" ∉ D(T,Pj)  ->  D += ø;  ∀ pi=p[imin]  pi↓
    2.2) ∀i  pi = p[imin]  ->  pi ∉ T  ->  "-pi" ∈ D(T,Pi)  ->  D += "-p[imin]";  ∀i pi↓

3)  t = p[imin]

    3.1) ∃j: pj > p[imin]  ->  "+t" ∈ D(T,Pj)  ->  only pi=p[imin] remains to investigate
    3.2) pi = p[imin]  ->  investigate δ(t,pi)
     |
     |
     v

    3.1+3.2) looking at δ(t,pi) ∀i: pi=p[imin] - if all != ø  ->

                      ⎧δ(t,pi)  - if pi=p[imin]
             ->  D += ⎨
                      ⎩"+t"     - if pi>p[imin]

    in any case t↓  ∀ pi=p[imin]  pi↓

~

For comparison, here is how diff_tree() works:

D(A,B) calculation scheme
-------------------------

    A     B
    -     -
   |a|   |b|    a < b   ->  a ∉ B   ->   D(A,B) +=  +a    a↓
   |-|   |-|    a > b   ->  b ∉ A   ->   D(A,B) +=  -b    b↓
   | |   | |    a = b   ->  investigate δ(a,b)            a↓ b↓
   |-|   |-|
   |.|   |.|
    .     .
    .     .

~~~~~~~~

This patch generalizes diff tree-walker to work with arbitrary number of
parents as described above - i.e. now there is a resulting tree t, and
some parents trees tp[i] i=[0..nparent). The generalization builds on
the fact that usual diff

D(A,B)

is by definition the same as combined diff

D(A,[B]),

so if we could rework the code for common case and make it be not slower
for nparent=1 case, usual diff(t1,t2) generation will not be slower, and
multiparent diff tree-walker would greatly benefit generating
combine-diff.

What we do is as follows:

1) diff tree-walker ll_diff_tree_sha1() is internally reworked to be
   a paths generator (new name diff_tree_paths()), with each generated path
   being `struct combine_diff_path` with info for path, new sha1,mode and for
   every parent which sha1,mode it was in it.

2) From that info, we can still generate usual diff queue with
   struct diff_filepairs, via "exporting" generated
   combine_diff_path, if we know we run for nparent=1 case.
   (see emit_diff() which is now named emit_diff_first_parent_only())

3) In order for diff_can_quit_early(), which checks

       DIFF_OPT_TST(opt, HAS_CHANGES))

   to work, that exporting have to be happening not in bulk, but
   incrementally, one diff path at a time.

   For such consumers, there is a new callback in diff_options
   introduced:

       ->pathchange(opt, struct combine_diff_path *)

   which, if set to !NULL, is called for every generated path.

   (see new compat ll_diff_tree_sha1() wrapper around new paths
    generator for setup)

4) The paths generation itself, is reworked from previous
   ll_diff_tree_sha1() code according to "D(A,P1...Pn) calculation
   scheme" provided above:

   On the start we allocate [nparent] arrays in place what was
   earlier just for one parent tree.

   then we just generalize loops, and comparison according to the
   algorithm.

Some notes(*):

1) alloca(), for small arrays, is used for "runs not slower for
   nparent=1 case than before" goal - if we change it to xmalloc()/free()
   the timings get ~1% worse. For alloca() we use just-introduced
   xalloca/xalloca_free compatibility wrappers, so it should not be a
   portability problem.

2) For every parent tree, we need to keep a tag, whether entry from that
   parent equals to entry from minimal parent. For performance reasons I'm
   keeping that tag in entry's mode field in unused bit - see S_IFXMIN_NEQ.
   Not doing so, we'd need to alloca another [nparent] array, which hurts
   performance.

3) For emitted paths, memory could be reused, if we know the path was
   processed via callback and will not be needed later. We use efficient
   hand-made realloc-style path_appendnew(), that saves us from ~1-1.5%
   of potential additional slowdown.

4) goto(s) are used in several places, as the code executes a little bit
   faster with lowered register pressure.

Also

- we should now check for FIND_COPIES_HARDER not only when two entries
  names are the same, and their hashes are equal, but also for a case,
  when a path was removed from some of all parents having it.

  The reason is, if we don't, that path won't be emitted at all (see
  "a > xi" case), and we'll just skip it, and FIND_COPIES_HARDER wants
  all paths - with diff or without - to be emitted, to be later analyzed
  for being copies sources.

  The new check is only necessary for nparent >1, as for nparent=1 case
  xmin_eqtotal always =1 =nparent, and a path is always added to diff as
  removal.

~~~~~~~~

Timings for

    # without -c, i.e. testing only nparent=1 case
    `git log --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames`

before and after the patch are as follows:

                navy.git        linux.git v3.10..v3.11

    before      0.611s          1.889s
    after       0.619s          1.907s
    slowdown    1.3%            0.9%

This timings show we did no harm to usual diff(tree1,tree2) generation.
From the table we can see that we actually did ~1% slowdown, but I think
I've "earned" that 1% in the previous patch ("tree-diff: reuse base
str(buf) memory on sub-tree recursion", HEAD~~) so for nparent=1 case,
net timings stays approximately the same.

The output also stayed the same.

(*) If we revert 1)-4) to more usual techniques, for nparent=1 case,
    we'll get ~2-2.5% of additional slowdown, which I've tried to avoid, as
   "do no harm for nparent=1 case" rule.

For linux.git, combined diff will run an order of magnitude faster and
appropriate timings will be provided in the next commit, as we'll be
taking advantage of the new diff tree-walker for combined-diff
generation there.

P.S. and combined diff is not some exotic/for-play-only stuff - for
example for a program I write to represent Git archives as readonly
filesystem, there is initial scan with

    `git log --reverse --raw --no-abbrev --no-renames -c`

to extract log of what was created/changed when, as a result building a
map

    {}  sha1    ->  in which commit (and date) a content was added

that `-c` means also show combined diff for merges, and without them, if
a merge is non-trivial (merges changes from two parents with both having
separate changes to a file), or an evil one, the map will not be full,
i.e. some valid sha1 would be absent from it.

That case was my initial motivation for combined diffs speedup.

7ca36d9398 date: check date overflow against time_t
When we check whether a timestamp has overflowed, we check
only against ULONG_MAX, meaning that strtoul has overflowed.
However, we also feed these timestamps to system functions
like gmtime, which expect a time_t. On many systems, time_t
is actually smaller than "unsigned long" (e.g., because it
is signed), and we would overflow when using these
functions.  We don't know the actual size or signedness of
time_t, but we can easily check for truncation with a simple
assignment.

18d37e860d safe_create_leading_directories(): add new error value SCLD_VANISHED
Add a new possible error result that can be returned by
safe_create_leading_directories() and
safe_create_leading_directories_const(): SCLD_VANISHED.  This value
indicates that a file or directory on the path existed at one point
(either it already existed or the function created it), but then it
disappeared.  This probably indicates that another process deleted the
directory while we were working.  If SCLD_VANISHED is returned, the
caller might want to retry the function call, as there is a chance
that a new attempt will succeed.

Why doesn't safe_create_leading_directories() do the retrying
internally?  Because an empty directory isn't really ever safe until
it holds a file.  So even if safe_create_leading_directories() were
absolutely sure that the directory existed before it returned, there
would be no guarantee that the directory still existed when the caller
tried to write something in it.

5d642e7506 sha1_object_info_extended: provide delta base sha1s
A caller of sha1_object_info_extended technically has enough
information to determine the base sha1 from the results of
the call. It knows the pack, offset, and delta type of the
object, which is sufficient to find the base.

However, the functions to do so are not publicly available,
and the code itself is intimate enough with the pack details
that it should be abstracted away. We could add a public
helper to allow callers to query the delta base separately,
but it is simpler and slightly more efficient to optionally
grab it along with the rest of the object_info data.

For cases where the object is not stored as a delta, we
write the null sha1 into the query field. A careful caller
could check "oi.whence == OI_PACKED && oi.u.packed.is_delta"
before looking at the base sha1, but using the null sha1
provides a simple alternative (and gives a better sanity
check for a non-careful caller than simply returning random
bytes).

58babfffde shallow.c: the 8 steps to select new commits for .git/shallow
Suppose a fetch or push is requested between two shallow repositories
(with no history deepening or shortening). A pack that contains
necessary objects is transferred over together with .git/shallow of
the sender. The receiver has to determine whether it needs to update
.git/shallow if new refs needs new shallow comits.

The rule here is avoid updating .git/shallow by default. But we don't
want to waste the received pack. If the pack contains two refs, one
needs new shallow commits installed in .git/shallow and one does not,
we keep the latter and reject/warn about the former.

Even if .git/shallow update is allowed, we only add shallow commits
strictly necessary for the former ref (remember the sender can send
more shallow commits than necessary) and pay attention not to
accidentally cut the receiver history short (no history shortening is
asked for)

So the steps to figure out what ref need what new shallow commits are:

1. Split the sender shallow commit list into "ours" and "theirs" list
   by has_sha1_file. Those that exist in current repo in "ours", the
   remaining in "theirs".

2. Check the receiver .git/shallow, remove from "ours" the ones that
   also exist in .git/shallow.

3. Fetch the new pack. Either install or unpack it.

4. Do has_sha1_file on "theirs" list again. Drop the ones that fail
   has_sha1_file. Obviously the new pack does not need them.

5. If the pack is kept, remove from "ours" the ones that do not exist
   in the new pack.

6. Walk the new refs to answer the question "what shallow commits,
   both ours and theirs, are required in .git/shallow in order to add
   this ref?". Shallow commits not associated to any refs are removed
   from their respective list.

7. (*) Check reachability (from the current refs) of all remaining
   commits in "ours". Those reachable are removed. We do not want to
   cut any part of our (reachable) history. We only check up
   commits. True reachability test is done by
   check_everything_connected() at the end as usual.

8. Combine the final "ours" and "theirs" and add them all to
   .git/shallow. Install new refs. The case where some hook rejects
   some refs on a push is explained in more detail in the push
   patches.

Of these steps, #6 and #7 are expensive. Both require walking through
some commits, or in the worst case all commits. And we rather avoid
them in at least common case, where the transferred pack does not
contain any shallow commits that the sender advertises. Let's look at
each scenario:

1) the sender has longer history than the receiver

   All shallow commits from the sender will be put into "theirs" list
   at step 1 because none of them exists in current repo. In the
   common case, "theirs" becomes empty at step 4 and exit early.

2) the sender has shorter history than the receiver

   All shallow commits from the sender are likely in "ours" list at
   step 1. In the common case, if the new pack is kept, we could empty
   "ours" and exit early at step 5.

   If the pack is not kept, we hit the expensive step 6 then exit
   after "ours" is emptied. There'll be only a handful of objects to
   walk in fast-forward case. If it's forced update, we may need to
   walk to the bottom.

3) the sender has same .git/shallow as the receiver

   This is similar to case 2 except that "ours" should be emptied at
   step 2 and exit early.

A fetch after "clone --depth=X" is case 1. A fetch after "clone" (from
a shallow repo) is case 3. Luckily they're cheap for the common case.

A push from "clone --depth=X" falls into case 2, which is expensive.
Some more work may be done at the sender/client side to avoid more
work on the server side: if the transferred pack does not contain any
shallow commits, send-pack should not send any shallow commits to the
receive-pack, effectively turning it into a normal push and avoid all
steps.

This patch implements all steps except #3, already handled by
fetch-pack and receive-pack, #6 and #7, which has their own patch due
to their size.

(*) in previous versions step 7 was put before step 3. I reorder it so
    that the common case that keeps the pack does not need to walk
    commits at all. In future if we implement faster commit
    reachability check (maybe with the help of pack bitmaps or commit
    cache), step 7 could become cheap and be moved up before 6 again.

af2a651d2e checkout_entry(): clarify the use of topath[] parameter
The said function has this signature:

	extern int checkout_entry(struct cache_entry *ce,
				  const struct checkout *state,
				  char *topath);

At first glance, it might appear that the caller of checkout_entry()
can specify to which path the contents are written out by the last
parameter, and it is tempting to add "const" in front of its type.

In reality, however, topath[] is to point at a buffer to store the
temporary path generated by the callchain originating from this
function, and the temporary path is always short, much shorter than
the buffer prepared by its only caller in builtin/checkout-index.c.

Document the code a bit to clarify so that future callers know how
to use the function better.

41894ae3a3 Use simpler relative_path when set_git_dir
Using a relative_path as git_dir first appears in v1.5.6-1-g044bbbc.
It will make git_dir shorter only if git_dir is inside work_tree,
and this will increase performance. But my last refactor effort on
relative_path function (commit v1.8.3-rc2-12-ge02ca72) changed that.
Always use relative_path as git_dir may bring troubles like
$gmane/234434.

Because new relative_path is a combination of original relative_path
from path.c and original path_relative from quote.c, so in order to
restore the origin implementation, save the original relative_path
as remove_leading_path, and call it in setup.c.

662cc30cd0 format-patch: print in-body "From" only when needed
Commit a908047 taught format-patch the "--from" option,
which places the author ident into an in-body from header,
and uses the committer ident in the rfc822 from header.  The
documentation claims that it will omit the in-body header
when it is the same as the rfc822 header, but the code never
implemented that behavior.

This patch completes the feature by comparing the two idents
and doing nothing when they are the same (this is the same
as simply omitting the in-body header, as the two are by
definition indistinguishable in this case). This makes it
reasonable to turn on "--from" all the time (if it matches
your particular workflow), rather than only using it when
exporting other people's patches.

db5360f3f4 name-hash: refactor polymorphic index_name_exists()
Depending upon the absence or presence of a trailing '/' on the incoming
pathname, index_name_exists() checks either if a file is present in the
index or if a directory is represented within the index. Each caller
explicitly chooses the mode of operation by adding or removing a
trailing '/' before invoking index_name_exists().

Since these two modes of operations are disjoint and have no code in
common (one searches index_state.name_hash; the other dir_hash), they
can be represented more naturally as distinct functions: one to search
for a file, and one for a directory.

Splitting index searching into two functions relieves callers of the
artificial burden of having to add or remove a slash to select the mode
of operation; instead they just call the desired function. A subsequent
patch will take advantage of this benefit in order to eliminate the
requirement that the incoming pathname for a directory search must have
a trailing slash.

(In order to avoid disturbing in-flight topics, index_name_exists() is
retained as a thin wrapper dispatching either to index_dir_exists() or
index_file_exists().)

The machinery is more or less ready.  The "--force" option is again
the big red button to override any safety, thanks to J6t's sanity
(the original round allowed --lockref to defeat --force).

The logic to choose the default implemented here is fragile
(e.g. "git fetch" after seeing a failure will update the

defeating the safety pretty easily).  It is suitable only for the

0016024277 git-config: always treat --int as 64-bit internally
When you run "git config --int", the maximum size of integer
you get depends on how git was compiled, and what it
considers to be an "int".

This is almost useful, because your scripts calling "git
config" will behave similarly to git internally. But relying
on this is dubious; you have to actually know how git treats
each value internally (e.g., int versus unsigned long),
which is not documented and is subject to change. And even
if you know it is "unsigned long", we do not have a
git-config option to match that behavior.

Furthermore, you may simply be asking git to store a value
on your behalf (e.g., configuration for a hook). In that
case, the relevant range check has nothing at all to do with
git, but rather with whatever scripting tools you are using
(and git has no way of knowing what the appropriate range is
there).

Not only is the range check useless, but it is actively
harmful, as there is no way at all for scripts to look
at config variables with large values. For instance, one
cannot reliably get the value of pack.packSizeLimit via
git-config. On an LP64 system, git happily uses a 64-bit
"unsigned long" internally to represent the value, but the
script cannot read any value over 2G.

Ideally, the "--int" option would simply represent an
arbitrarily large integer. For practical purposes, however,
a 64-bit integer is large enough, and is much easier to
implement (and if somebody overflows it, we will still
notice the problem, and not simply return garbage).

bd30c2e484 pathspec: support :(glob) syntax
:(glob)path differs from plain pathspec that it uses wildmatch with
WM_PATHNAME while the other uses fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME. The
difference lies in how '*' (and '**') is processed.

With the introduction of :(glob) and :(literal) and their global
options --[no]glob-pathspecs, the user can:

 - make everything literal by default via --noglob-pathspecs
   --literal-pathspecs cannot be used for this purpose as it
   disables _all_ pathspec magic.

 - individually turn on globbing with :(glob)

 - make everything globbing by default via --glob-pathspecs

 - individually turn off globbing with :(literal)

The implication behind this is, there is no way to gain the default
matching behavior (i.e. fnmatch without FNM_PATHNAME). You either get
new globbing or literal. The old fnmatch behavior is considered
deprecated and discouraged to use.

5b0864070e sha1_object_info_extended: make type calculation optional
Each caller of sha1_object_info_extended sets up an
object_info struct to tell the function which elements of
the object it wants to get. Until now, getting the type of
the object has always been required (and it is returned via
the return type rather than a pointer in object_info).

This can involve actually opening a loose object file to
determine its type, or following delta chains to determine a
packed file's base type. These effects produce a measurable
slow-down when doing a "cat-file --batch-check" that does
not include %(objecttype).

This patch adds a "typep" query to struct object_info, so
that it can be optionally queried just like size and
disk_size. As a result, the return type of the function is
no longer the object type, but rather 0/-1 for success/error.

As there are only three callers total, we just fix up each
caller rather than keep a compatibility wrapper:

  1. The simpler sha1_object_info wrapper continues to
     always ask for and return the type field.

  2. The istream_source function wants to know the type, and
     so always asks for it.

  3. The cat-file batch code asks for the type only when
     %(objecttype) is part of the format string.

On linux.git, the best-of-five for running:

  $ git rev-list --objects --all >objects
  $ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectsize:disk)'

on a fully packed repository goes from:

  real    0m8.680s
  user    0m8.160s
  sys     0m0.512s

to:

  real    0m7.205s
  user    0m6.580s
  sys     0m0.608s

25fba78d36 cat-file: disable object/refname ambiguity check for batch mode
A common use of "cat-file --batch-check" is to feed a list
of objects from "rev-list --objects" or a similar command.
In this instance, all of our input objects are 40-byte sha1
ids. However, cat-file has always allowed arbitrary revision
specifiers, and feeds the result to get_sha1().

Fortunately, get_sha1() recognizes a 40-byte sha1 before
doing any hard work trying to look up refs, meaning this
scenario should end up spending very little time converting
the input into an object sha1. However, since 798c35f
(get_sha1: warn about full or short object names that look
like refs, 2013-05-29), when we encounter this case, we
spend the extra effort to do a refname lookup anyway, just
to print a warning. This is further exacerbated by ca91993
(get_packed_ref_cache: reload packed-refs file when it
changes, 2013-06-20), which makes individual ref lookup more
expensive by requiring a stat() of the packed-refs file for
each missing ref.

With no patches, this is the time it takes to run:

  $ git rev-list --objects --all >objects
  $ time git cat-file --batch-check='%(objectname)' <objects

on the linux.git repository:

  real    1m13.494s
  user    0m25.924s
  sys     0m47.532s

If we revert ca91993, the packed-refs up-to-date check, it
gets a little better:

  real    0m54.697s
  user    0m21.692s
  sys     0m32.916s

but we are still spending quite a bit of time on ref lookup
(and we would not want to revert that patch, anyway, which
has correctness issues).  If we revert 798c35f, disabling
the warning entirely, we get a much more reasonable time:

  real    0m7.452s
  user    0m6.836s
  sys     0m0.608s

This patch does the moral equivalent of this final case (and
gets similar speedups). We introduce a global flag that
callers of get_sha1() can use to avoid paying the price for
the warning.

9c5e6c802c Convert "struct cache_entry *" to "const ..." wherever possible
I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **"
to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The
question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk
changes in the index. The result is

 - diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE

 - name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED

 - preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and
   builtin/update-index: obvious

 - entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via
   fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry
   *" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and
   builtin/checkout.c

 - builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set
   CE_UPDATE

Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most
interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info
and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain
commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes.

So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a
flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except
unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny
behind read-cache's back.

The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if
anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then
this:

    diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h
    index 430d021..1692891 100644

47a5918536 cache.h: move remote/connect API out of it
The definition of "struct ref" in "cache.h", a header file so
central to the system, always confused me.  This structure is not
about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects.

It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs
the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object
transfer succeeds to what values.  It belongs to "remote.h" together
with "struct refspec".

While we are at it, also move the types and functions related to the
Git transport connection to a new header file connect.h

e02ca72f70 path.c: refactor relative_path(), not only strip prefix
Original design of relative_path() is simple, just strip the prefix
(*base) from the absolute path (*abs).

In most cases, we need a real relative path, such as: ../foo,
../../bar.  That's why there is another reimplementation
(path_relative()) in quote.c.

Borrow some codes from path_relative() in quote.c to refactor
relative_path() in path.c, so that it could return real relative
path, and user can reuse this function without reimplementing
his/her own.  The function path_relative() in quote.c will be
substituted, and I would use the new relative_path() function when
implementing the interactive git-clean later.

Different results for relative_path() before and after this refactor:

    abs path  base path  relative (original)  relative (refactor)
    ========  =========  ===================  ===================
    /a/b      /a/b       .                    ./
    /a/b/     /a/b       .                    ./
    /a        /a/b/      /a                   ../

    /x/y      /a/b/      /x/y                 ../../x/y

    a/b/      a/b/       .                    ./

    a         a/b        a                    ../
    x/y       a/b/       x/y                  ../../x/y

    (null)    /a/b       (segfault)           ./

You may notice that return value "." has been changed to "./".
It is because:

 * Function quote_path_relative() in quote.c will show the relative
   path as "./" if abs(in) and base(prefix) are the same.

 * Function relative_path() is called only once (in setup.c), and
   it will be OK for the return value as "./" instead of ".".

It can sometimes be useful to know whether a path in the

information on disk already to handle index updates, and we
can use the same trick here.

This patch introduces a "stat_validity" struct which
encapsulates the concept of checking the stat-freshness of a
file. It is implemented on top of "struct stat_data" to
reuse the logic about which stat entries to trust for a
particular platform, but hides the complexity behind two
simple functions: check and update.

900f2814b8 refactor "ref->merge" flag
Each "struct ref" has a boolean flag that is set by the
fetch code to determine whether the ref should be marked as
"not-for-merge" or not when we write it out to FETCH_HEAD.

It would be useful to turn this boolean into a tri-state,
with the third state meaning "do not bother writing it out
to FETCH_HEAD at all". That would let us add extra refs to
the set of refs to be stored (e.g., to store copies of
things we fetched) without impacting FETCH_HEAD.

This patch turns it into an enum that covers the tri-state
case, and hopefully makes the code more explicit and easier
to read.

"git reflog --expire=all" tries to expire reflog entries up to the
current second, because the approxidate() parser gives the current
timestamp for anything it does not understand (and it does not know
what time "all" means).  When the user tells us to expire "all" (or
set the expiration time to "now"), the user wants to remove all the
reflog entries (no reflog entry should record future time).

Just set it to ULONG_MAX and to let everything that is older that
timestamp expire.

While at it, allow "now" to be treated the same way for callers that
parse expiry date timestamp with this function.  Also use an error
reporting version of approxidate() to report misspelled date.  When
the user says e.g. "--expire=mnoday" to delete entries two days or
older on Wednesday, we wouldn't want the "unknown, default to now"
logic to kick in.

Extract the read_index_data() function from attr.c and move it to
read-cache.c; rename it to read_blob_data_from_index() and update
the function signature of it to align better with index/cache API
functions.

This allows for reusing the function in convert.c later.

Because all callers use the macro adjust_shared_perm(path) from

Since path.c has much more functions than just mkpath() these days,

71c7b0538f add -u: only show pathless 'add -u' warning when changes exist outside cwd
A common workflow in large projects is to chdir into a subdirectory of
interest and only do work there:

	cd src
	vi foo.c
	make test
	git add -u
	git commit

The upcoming change to 'git add -u' behavior would not affect such a
workflow: when the only changes present are in the current directory,
'git add -u' will add all changes, and whether that happens via an
implicit "." or implicit ":/" parameter is an unimportant
implementation detail.

The warning about use of 'git add -u' with no pathspec is annoying
because it seemingly serves no purpose in this case.  So suppress the
warning unless there are changes outside the cwd that are not being
added.

A previous version of this patch ran two I/O-intensive diff-files
passes: one to find changes outside the cwd, and another to find
changes to add to the index within the cwd.  This version runs one
full-tree diff and decides for each change whether to add it or warn
and suppress it in update_callback.  As a result, even on very large
repositories "git add -u" will not be significantly slower than the
future default behavior ("git add -u :/"), and the slowdown relative
to "git add -u ." should be a useful clue to users of such
repositories to get into the habit of explicitly passing '.'.

e721c1544f checkout: avoid unnecessary match_pathspec calls
In checkout_paths() we do this

 - for all updated items, call match_pathspec
 - for all items, call match_pathspec (inside unmerge_cache)
 - for all items, call match_pathspec (for showing "path .. is unmerged)
 - for updated items, call match_pathspec and update paths

That's a lot of duplicate match_pathspec(s) and the function is not
exactly cheap to be called so many times, especially on large indexes.
This patch makes it call match_pathspec once per updated index entry,
save the result in ce_flags and reuse the results in the following
loops.

The changes in 0a1283b (checkout $tree $path: do not clobber local
changes in $path not in $tree - 2011-09-30) limit the affected paths
to ones we read from $tree. We do not do anything to other modified
entries in this case, so the "for all items" above could be modified
to "for all updated items". But..

The command's behavior now is modified slightly: unmerged entries that
match $path, but not updated by $tree, are now NOT touched.  Although
this should be considered a bug fix, not a regression. A new test is
added for this change.

And while at there, free ps_matched after use.

The following command is tested on webkit, 215k entries. The pattern
is chosen mainly to make match_pathspec sweat:

git checkout -- "*[a-zA-Z]*[a-zA-Z]*[a-zA-Z]*"

c3c2e1a09b archive-zip: use deflateInit2() to ask for raw compressed data
We use the function git_deflate_init() -- which wraps the zlib function
deflateInit() -- to initialize compression of ZIP file entries.  This
results in compressed data prefixed with a two-bytes long header and
followed by a four-bytes trailer.  ZIP file entries consist of ZIP
headers and raw compressed data instead, so we remove the zlib wrapper
before writing the result.

We can ask zlib for the the raw compressed data without the unwanted
parts in the first place by using deflateInit2() and specifying a
negative number of bits to size the window.  For that purpose, factor
out the function do_git_deflate_init() and add git_deflate_init_raw(),
which wraps it.  Then use the latter in archive-zip.c and get rid of
the code that stripped the zlib header and trailer.

Also rename the helper function zlib_deflate() to zlib_deflate_raw()
to reflect the change.

Thus we avoid generating data that we throw away anyway, the code
becomes shorter and some magic constants are removed.

2cd83d10bb setup: suppress implicit "." work-tree for bare repos
If an explicit GIT_DIR is given without a working tree, we
implicitly assume that the current working directory should
be used as the working tree. E.g.,:

  GIT_DIR=/some/repo.git git status

would compare against the cwd.

Unfortunately, we fool this rule for sub-invocations of git
by setting GIT_DIR internally ourselves. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails, as we expect
  git config alias.st status
  git status ;# does not fail, but should

What happens is that we run setup_git_directory when doing
alias lookup (since we need to see the config), set GIT_DIR
as a result, and then leave GIT_WORK_TREE blank (because we
do not have one). Then when we actually run the status
command, we do setup_git_directory again, which sees our
explicit GIT_DIR and uses the cwd as an implicit worktree.

It's tempting to argue that we should be suppressing that
second invocation of setup_git_directory, as it could use
the values we already found in memory. However, the problem
still exists for sub-processes (e.g., if "git status" were
an external command).

You can see another example with the "--bare" option, which
sets GIT_DIR explicitly. For example:

  git init foo
  cd foo/.git
  git status ;# fails
  git --bare status ;# does NOT fail

We need some way of telling sub-processes "even though
GIT_DIR is set, do not use cwd as an implicit working tree".
We could do it by putting a special token into
GIT_WORK_TREE, but the obvious choice (an empty string) has
some portability problems.

Instead, we add a new boolean variable, GIT_IMPLICIT_WORK_TREE,
which suppresses the use of cwd as a working tree when
GIT_DIR is set. We trigger the new variable when we know we
are in a bare setting.

The variable is left intentionally undocumented, as this is
an internal detail (for now, anyway). If somebody comes up
with a good alternate use for it, and once we are confident
we have shaken any bugs out of it, we can consider promoting
it further.

a6f7f9a325 environment: add GIT_PREFIX to local_repo_env
The GIT_PREFIX variable is set based on our location within
the working tree. It should therefore be cleared whenever
GIT_WORK_TREE is cleared.

In practice, this doesn't cause any bugs, because none of
the sub-programs we invoke with local_repo_env cleared
actually care about GIT_PREFIX. But this is the right thing
to do, and future proofs us against that assumption changing.

While we're at it, let's define a GIT_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT
macro; this avoids repetition of the string literal, which
can help catch any spelling mistakes in the code.

2163e5dbb4 cache.h: drop LOCAL_REPO_ENV_SIZE
We keep a static array of variables that should be cleared
when invoking a sub-process on another repo. We statically
size the array with the LOCAL_REPO_ENV_SIZE macro so that
any readers do not have to count it themselves.

As it turns out, no readers actually use the macro, and it
creates a maintenance headache, as modifications to the
array need to happen in two places (one to add the new
element, and another to bump the size).

Since it's NULL-terminated, we can just drop the size macro
entirely. While we're at it, we'll clean up some comments
around it, and add a new mention of it at the top of the
list of environment variable macros. Even though
local_repo_env is right below that list, it's easy to miss,
and additions to that list should consider local_repo_env.

2092678cd5 name-hash.c: fix endless loop with core.ignorecase=true
With core.ignorecase=true, name-hash.c builds a case insensitive index of
all tracked directories. Currently, the existing cache entry structures are
added multiple times to the same hashtable (with different name lengths and
hash codes). However, there's only one dir_next pointer, which gets
completely messed up in case of hash collisions. In the worst case, this
causes an endless loop if ce == ce->dir_next (see t7062).

Use a separate hashtable and separate structures for the directory index
so that each directory entry has its own next pointer. Use reference
counting to track which directory entry contains files.

There are only slight changes to the name-hash.c API:
- new free_name_hash() used by read_cache.c::discard_index()
- remove_name_hash() takes an additional index_state parameter
- index_name_exists() for a directory (trailing '/') may return a cache
  entry that has been removed (CE_UNHASHED). This is not a problem as the
  return value is only used to check if the directory exists (dir.c) or to
  normalize casing of directory names (read-cache.c).

Getting rid of cache_entry.dir_next reduces memory consumption, especially
with core.ignorecase=false (which doesn't use that member at all).

With core.ignorecase=true, building the directory index is slightly faster
as we add / check the parent directory first (instead of going through all
directory levels for each file in the index). E.g. with WebKit (~200k
files, ~7k dirs), time spent in lazy_init_name_hash is reduced from 176ms
to 130ms.

75e5c0dc55 push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCE
When we push to update an existing ref, if:

 * the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or
 * the object we are pushing is not a commit,

it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again,
as the old and new objects will not "merge".  We should explain that
the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is
involved in such a case.

If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do
not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be
merged.  In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like
non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in
practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work
to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to
update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work
as a suggestion most of the time.  And if the object at the tip is
not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent
damage.  As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user
will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now
the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved.

In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the
client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the
ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from
there and integrate before pushing again.

Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages
appropriately.

c08e4d5b5c Enable minimal stat checking
Specifically the fields uid, gid, ctime, ino and dev are set to zero
by JGit. Other implementations, eg. Git in cygwin are allegedly also
somewhat incompatible with Git For Windows and on *nix platforms
the resolution of the timestamps may differ.

Any stat checking by git will then need to check content, which may
be very slow, particularly on Windows. Since mtime and size
is typically enough we should allow the user to tell git to avoid
checking these fields if they are set to zero in the index.

This change introduces a core.checkstat config option where the
the user can select to check all fields (default), or just size
and the whole second part of mtime (minimal).

tip of the ref we are updating.

The primary cause of the bug is that the check in a new helper
function is_forwardable() assumed both old and new objects are
available and can be checked, which is not always the case.

The way the caller uses the result of this function is also wrong.
If the helper says "we do not want to let this push go through", the
caller unconditionally translates it into "we blocked it because the
destination already exists", which is not true at all in this case.

Fix this by doing these three things:

 * Remove unnecessary not_forwardable from "struct ref"; it is only
   used inside set_ref_status_for_push();

 * Make "refs/tags/" the only hierarchy that cannot be replaced
   without --force;

 * Remove the misguided attempt to force that everything that
   updates an existing ref has to be a commit outside "refs/tags/"
   hierarchy.

The policy last one tried to implement may later be resurrected and
extended to ensure fast-forwardness (defined as "not losing
objects", extending from the traditional "not losing commits from
the resulting history") when objects that are not commit are
involved (e.g. an annotated tag in hierarchies outside refs/tags),
but such a logic belongs to "is this a fast-forward?" check that is
done by ref_newer(); is_forwardable(), which is now removed, was not
the right place to do so.

eff80a9fd9 Allow custom "comment char"
Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #,
in their commit log message.  Many tracking system recognise
a token of #<bugid> form, for example.

The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end
users.  They have a choice between

 - Don't do it.  Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and

 - Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add.

Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g.

    $ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit

so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.

5ded807f7c fix clang -Wunused-value warnings for error functions
Commit a469a10 wraps some error calls in macros to give the
compiler a chance to do more static analysis on their
constant -1 return value.  We limit the use of these macros
to __GNUC__, since gcc is the primary beneficiary of the new
information, and because we use GNU features for handling
variadic macros.

However, clang also defines __GNUC__, but generates warnings
with -Wunused-value when these macros are used in a void
context, because the constant "-1" ends up being useless.
Gcc does not complain about this case (though it is unclear
if it is because it is smart enough to see what we are
doing, or too dumb to realize that the -1 is unused).  We
can squelch the warning by just disabling these macros when
clang is in use.

823ab40fd4 add global --literal-pathspecs option
Git takes pathspec arguments in many places to limit the
scope of an operation. These pathspecs are treated not as
literal paths, but as glob patterns that can be fed to
fnmatch. When a user is giving a specific pattern, this is a
nice feature.

However, when programatically providing pathspecs, it can be
a nuisance. For example, to find the latest revision which
modified "$foo", one can use "git rev-list -- $foo". But if
"$foo" contains glob characters (e.g., "f*"), it will
erroneously match more entries than desired. The caller
needs to quote the characters in $foo, and even then, the
results may not be exactly the same as with a literal
pathspec. For instance, the depth checks in
match_pathspec_depth do not kick in if we match via fnmatch.

This patch introduces a global command-line option (i.e.,
one for "git" itself, not for specific commands) to turn
this behavior off. It also has a matching environment
variable, which can make it easier if you are a script or
porcelain interface that is going to issue many such
commands.

This option cannot turn off globbing for particular
pathspecs. That could eventually be done with a ":(noglob)"
magic pathspec prefix. However, that level of granularity is
more cumbersome to use for many cases, and doing ":(noglob)"
right would mean converting the whole codebase to use
"struct pathspec", as the usual "const char **pathspec"
cannot represent extra per-item flags.

a469a10193 silence some -Wuninitialized false positives
There are a few error functions that simply wrap error() and
provide a standardized message text. Like error(), they
always return -1; knowing that can help the compiler silence
some false positive -Wuninitialized warnings.

One strategy would be to just declare these as inline in the
header file so that the compiler can see that they always
return -1. However, gcc does not always inline them (e.g.,
it will not inline opterror, even with -O3), which renders
our change pointless.

Instead, let's follow the same route we did with error() in
the last patch, and define a macro that makes the constant
return value obvious to the compiler.

8c6abbcd27 pathspec: apply "*.c" optimization from exclude
When a pattern contains only a single asterisk as wildcard,
e.g. "foo*bar", after literally comparing the leading part "foo" with
the string, we can compare the tail of the string and make sure it
matches "bar", instead of running fnmatch() on "*bar" against the
remainder of the string.

-O2 build on linux-2.6, without the patch:

$ time git rev-list --quiet HEAD -- '*.c'

real    0m40.770s
user    0m40.290s
sys     0m0.256s

With the patch

$ time ~/w/git/git rev-list --quiet HEAD -- '*.c'

real    0m34.288s
user    0m33.997s
sys     0m0.205s

The above command is not supposed to be widely popular. It's chosen
because it exercises pathspec matching a lot. The point is it cuts
down matching time for popular patterns like *.c, which could be used
as pathspec in other places.

d6991ceedc ident: keep separate "explicit" flags for author and committer
We keep track of whether the user ident was given to us
explicitly, or if we guessed at it from system parameters
like username and hostname. However, we kept only a single
variable. This covers the common cases (because the author
and committer will usually come from the same explicit
source), but can miss two cases:

  1. GIT_COMMITTER_* is set explicitly, but we fallback for
     GIT_AUTHOR. We claim the ident is explicit, even though
     the author is not.

  2. GIT_AUTHOR_* is set and we ask for author ident, but
     not committer ident. We will claim the ident is
     implicit, even though it is explicit.

This patch uses two variables instead of one, updates both
when we set the "fallback" values, and updates them
individually when we read from the environment.

Rather than keep user_ident_sufficiently_given as a
compatibility wrapper, we update the only two callers to
check the committer_ident, which matches their intent and
what was happening already.

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".

76759c7dff git on Mac OS and precomposed unicode
Mac OS X mangles file names containing unicode on file systems HFS+,
VFAT or SAMBA.  When a file using unicode code points outside ASCII
is created on a HFS+ drive, the file name is converted into
decomposed unicode and written to disk. No conversion is done if
the file name is already decomposed unicode.

Calling open("\xc3\x84", ...) with a precomposed "Ä" yields the same
result as open("\x41\xcc\x88",...) with a decomposed "Ä".

As a consequence, readdir() returns the file names in decomposed
unicode, even if the user expects precomposed unicode.  Unlike on
HFS+, Mac OS X stores files on a VFAT drive (e.g. an USB drive) in
precomposed unicode, but readdir() still returns file names in
decomposed unicode.  When a git repository is stored on a network
share using SAMBA, file names are send over the wire and written to
disk on the remote system in precomposed unicode, but Mac OS X
readdir() returns decomposed unicode to be compatible with its
behaviour on HFS+ and VFAT.

The unicode decomposition causes many problems:

- The names "git add" and other commands get from the end user may
  often be precomposed form (the decomposed form is not easily input
  from the keyboard), but when the commands read from the filesystem
  to see what it is going to update the index with already is on the
  filesystem, readdir() will give decomposed form, which is different.

- Similarly "git log", "git mv" and all other commands that need to
  compare pathnames found on the command line (often but not always
  precomposed form; a command line input resulting from globbing may
  be in decomposed) with pathnames found in the tree objects (should
  be precomposed form to be compatible with other systems and for
  consistency in general).

- The same for names stored in the index, which should be
  precomposed, that may need to be compared with the names read from
  readdir().

NFS mounted from Linux is fully transparent and does not suffer from
the above.

As Mac OS X treats precomposed and decomposed file names as equal,
we can

 - wrap readdir() on Mac OS X to return the precomposed form, and

 - normalize decomposed form given from the command line also to the
   precomposed form,

to ensure that all pathnames used in Git are always in the
precomposed form.  This behaviour can be requested by setting
"core.precomposedunicode" configuration variable to true.

The code in compat/precomposed_utf8.c implements basically 4 new
functions: precomposed_utf8_opendir(), precomposed_utf8_readdir(),
precomposed_utf8_closedir() and precompose_argv().  The first three
are to wrap opendir(3), readdir(3), and closedir(3) functions.

The argv[] conversion allows to use the TAB filename completion done
by the shell on command line.  It tolerates other tools which use
readdir() to feed decomposed file names into git.

When creating a new git repository with "git init" or "git clone",
"core.precomposedunicode" will be set "false".

The user needs to activate this feature manually.  She typically
sets core.precomposedunicode to "true" on HFS and VFAT, or file
systems mounted via SAMBA.

We do not write to this new location (yet).

If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is either not set or empty, $HOME/.config/git/config
will be used. This is in line with XDG specification.

023e37c377 verify_filename(): ask the caller to chose the kind of diagnosis
verify_filename() can be called in two different contexts. Either we
just tried to interpret a string as an object name, and it fails, so
we try looking for a working tree file (i.e. we finished looking at
revs that come earlier on the command line, and the next argument
must be a pathname), or we _know_ that we are looking for a
pathname, and shouldn't even try interpreting the string as an
object name.

For example, with this change, we get:

  $ git log COPYING HEAD:inexistant
  fatal: HEAD:inexistant: no such path in the working tree.
  Use '-- <path>...' to specify paths that do not exist locally.
  $ git log HEAD:inexistant

f9bc573fda ident: rename IDENT_ERROR_ON_NO_NAME to IDENT_STRICT
Callers who ask for ERROR_ON_NO_NAME are not so much
concerned that the name will be blank (because, after all,
we will fall back to using the username), but rather it is a
check to make sure that low-quality identities do not end up
in things like commit messages or emails (whereas it is OK
for them to end up in things like reflogs).

When future commits add more quality checks on the identity,
each of these callers would want to use those checks, too.
Rather than modify each of them later to add a new flag,
let's refactor the flag.

c15e1987ae ident: let callers omit name with fmt_indent
Most callers want to see all of "$name <$email> $date", but
a few want only limited parts, omitting the date, or even
the name. We already have IDENT_NO_DATE to handle the date
part, but there's not a good option for getting just the
email. Callers have to done one of:

  1. Call ident_default_email; this does not respect
     environment variables, nor does it promise to trim
     whitespace or other crud from the result.

  2. Call git_{committer,author}_info; this returns the name
     and email, leaving the caller to parse out the wanted
     bits.

This patch adds IDENT_NO_NAME; it stops short of adding
IDENT_NO_EMAIL, as no callers want it (nor are likely to),
and it complicates the error handling of the function.

When no name is requested, the angle brackets (<>) around
the email address are also omitted.

b55e677522 push: introduce new push.default mode "simple"
When calling "git push" without argument, we want to allow Git to do
something simple to explain and safe. push.default=matching is unsafe
when used to push to shared repositories, and hard to explain to
beginners in some contexts. It is debatable whether 'upstream' or
'current' is the safest or the easiest to explain, so introduce a new
mode called 'simple' that is the intersection of them: push to the
upstream branch, but only if it has the same name remotely. If not, give
an error that suggests the right command to push explicitely to
'upstream' or 'current'.

A question is whether to allow pushing when no upstream is configured. An
argument in favor of allowing the push is that it makes the new mode work
in more cases. On the other hand, refusing to push when no upstream is
configured encourages the user to set the upstream, which will be
beneficial on the next pull. Lacking better argument, we chose to deny
the push, because it will be easier to change in the future if someone
shows us wrong.

In the former case, we want to consider this a
permissions problem and report it to the user as such (since
getting this for something like "git foo" is likely a
configuration error).

In the latter case, there is a good chance that the
inaccessible directory does not contain anything of
interest. Reporting "permission denied" is confusing to the
user (and prevents our usual "did you mean...?" lookup). It
also prevents git from trying alias lookup, since we do so
only when an external command does not exist (not when it
exists but has an error).

This patch detects EACCES from execvp, checks whether we are
in case (2), and if so converts errno to ENOENT. This
behavior matches that of "bash" (but not of simpler shells
that use execvp more directly, like "dash").

Test stolen from Junio.

9d227781b6 read-cache.c: write prefix-compressed names in the index
Teach the code to write the index in the v4 on-disk format.

Record the format version of the on-disk index we read from in the
index_state, and use the format when writing the new index out.

db3b313c84 cache.h: hide on-disk index details
The on-disk format of the index file is a detail whose implementation is
neatly encapsulated in read-cache.c; there is no need to expose it to the
general public that include the cache.h header file.

Also add a prominent mark to read-cache.c to delineate the parts that deal
with the index file I/O routines from the remainder of the file.

e339aa92ae clean up struct ref's nonfastforward field
Each ref structure contains a "nonfastforward" field which
is set during push to show whether the ref rewound history.
Originally this was a single bit, but it was changed in
f25950f (push: Provide situational hints for non-fast-forward
errors) to an enum differentiating a non-ff of the current
branch versus another branch.

However, we never actually set the member according to the
enum values, nor did we ever read it expecting anything but
a boolean value. But we did use the side effect of declaring
the enum constants to store those values in a totally
different integer variable. The code as-is isn't buggy, but
the enum declaration inside "struct ref" is somewhat
misleading.

Let's convert nonfastforward back into a single bit, and
then define the NON_FF_* constants closer to where they
would be used (they are returned via the "int *nonfastforward"
parameter to transport_push, so we can define them there).

f8582cad8d make is_empty_blob_sha1 available everywhere
The read-cache implementation defines this static function,
but it is a generally useful concept in git. Let's give
the empty blob the same treatment as the empty tree,
providing both hex and binary forms of the sha1.

f25950f347 push: Provide situational hints for non-fast-forward errors
Pushing a non-fast-forward update to a remote repository will result in
an error, but the hint text doesn't provide the correct resolution in
every case. Give better resolution advice in three push scenarios:

1) If you push your current branch and it triggers a non-fast-forward
error, you should merge remote changes with 'git pull' before pushing
again.

2) If you push to a shared repository others push to, and your local
tracking branches are not kept up to date, the 'matching refs' default
will generate non-fast-forward errors on outdated branches. If this is
your workflow, the 'matching refs' default is not for you. Consider
setting the 'push.default' configuration variable to 'current' or
'upstream' to ensure only your current branch is pushed.

3) If you explicitly specify a ref that is not your current branch or
push matching branches with ':', you will generate a non-fast-forward
error if any pushed branch tip is out of date. You should checkout the
offending branch and merge remote changes before pushing again.

Teach transport.c to recognize these scenarios and configure push.c
to hint for them. If 'git push's default behavior changes or we
discover more scenarios, extension is easy. Standardize on the
advice API and add three new advice variables, 'pushNonFFCurrent',
'pushNonFFDefault', and 'pushNonFFMatching'. Setting any of these
to 'false' will disable their affiliated advice. Setting
'pushNonFastForward' to false will disable all three, thus preserving the
config option for users who already set it, but guaranteeing new
users won't disable push advice accidentally.

4b340cfab9 ident.c: add split_ident_line() to parse formatted ident line
The commit formatting logic format_person_part() in pretty.c
implements the logic to split an author/committer ident line into
its parts, intermixed with logic to compute its output using these
piece it computes.

Separate the former out to a helper function split_ident_line() so
that other codepath can use the same logic, and rewrite the function
using the helper function.

15438d5a56 Add threaded versions of functions in symlinks.c.
check_leading_path() and has_dirs_only_path() both always use the default
cache, which could be a caveat for adding parallelism (which is a concern
and even a GSoC proposal).

Reimplement these two in terms of new threaded_check_leading_path() and
threaded_has_dirs_only_path() that take their own copy of the cache.
