9b25a0b52e config: add include directive
It can be useful to split your ~/.gitconfig across multiple
files. For example, you might have a "main" file which is
used on many machines, but a small set of per-machine
tweaks. Or you may want to make some of your config public
(e.g., clever aliases) while keeping other data back (e.g.,
your name or other identifying information). Or you may want
to include a number of config options in some subset of your
repos without copying and pasting (e.g., you want to
reference them from the .git/config of participating repos).

This patch introduces an include directive for config files.
It looks like:

  [include]
    path = /path/to/file

This is syntactically backwards-compatible with existing git
config parsers (i.e., they will see it as another config
entry and ignore it unless you are looking up include.path).

The implementation provides a "git_config_include" callback
which wraps regular config callbacks. Callers can pass it to
git_config_from_file, and it will transparently follow any
include directives, passing all of the discovered options to
the real callback.

Include directives are turned on automatically for "regular"
git config parsing. This includes calls to git_config, as
well as calls to the "git config" program that do not
specify a single file (e.g., using "-f", "--global", etc).
They are not turned on in other cases, including:

  1. Parsing of other config-like files, like .gitmodules.
     There isn't a real need, and I'd rather be conservative
     and avoid unnecessary incompatibility or confusion.

  2. Reading single files via "git config". This is for two
     reasons:

       a. backwards compatibility with scripts looking at
          config-like files.

       b. inspection of a specific file probably means you
	  care about just what's in that file, not a general
          lookup for "do we have this value anywhere at
	  all". If that is not the case, the caller can
	  always specify "--includes".

  3. Writing files via "git config"; we want to treat
     include.* variables as literal items to be copied (or
     modified), and not expand them. So "git config
     --unset-all foo.bar" would operate _only_ on
     .git/config, not any of its included files (just as it
     also does not operate on ~/.gitconfig).

4a7bb5ba95 config: eliminate config_exclusive_filename
This is a magic global variable that was intended as an
override to the usual git-config lookup process. Once upon a
time, you could specify GIT_CONFIG to any git program, and
it would look only at that file. This turned out to be
confusing and cause a lot of bugs for little gain. As a
result, dc87183 (Only use GIT_CONFIG in "git config", not
other programs, 2008-06-30) took this away for all callers
except git-config.

Since git-config no longer uses it either, the variable can
just go away. As the diff shows, nobody was setting to
anything except NULL, so we can just replace any sites where
it was read with NULL.

c9b5e2a57d config: provide a version of git_config with more options
Callers may want to provide a specific version of a file in which to look
for config. Right now this can be done by setting the magic global
config_exclusive_filename variable.  By providing a version of git_config
that takes a filename, we can take a step towards making this magic global
go away.

Furthermore, by providing a more "advanced" interface, we now have a a
natural place to add new options for callers like git-config, which care
about tweaking the specifics of config lookup, without disturbing the
large number of "simple" users (i.e., every other part of git).

The astute reader of this patch may notice that the logic for handling
config_exclusive_filename was taken out of git_config_early, but added
into git_config. This means that git_config_early will no longer respect
config_exclusive_filename.  That's OK, because the only other caller of
git_config_early is check_repository_format_gently, but the only function
which sets config_exclusive_filename is cmd_config, which does not call
check_repository_format_gently (and if it did, it would have been a bug,
anyway, as we would be checking the repository format in the wrong file).

ad6c3739a3 pager: find out the terminal width before spawning the pager
term_columns() checks for terminal width via ioctl(2) on the standard
output, but we spawn the pager too early for this check to be useful.

The effect of this buglet can be observed by opening a wide terminal and
running "git -p help --all", which still shows 80-column output, while
"git help --all" uses the full terminal width. Run the check before we
spawn the pager to fix this.

While at it, move term_columns() to pager.c and export it from cache.h so
that callers other than the help subsystem can use it.

b3256eb8b3 standardize and improve lookup rules for external local repos
When you specify a local repository on the command line of
clone, ls-remote, upload-pack, receive-pack, or upload-archive,
or in a request to git-daemon, we perform a little bit of
lookup magic, doing things like looking in working trees for
.git directories and appending ".git" for bare repos.

For clone, this magic happens in get_repo_path. For
everything else, it happens in enter_repo. In both cases,
there are some ambiguous or confusing cases that aren't
handled well, and there is one case that is not handled the
same by both methods.

This patch tries to provide (and test!) standard, sensible
lookup rules for both code paths. The intended changes are:

  1. When looking up "foo", we have always preferred
     a working tree "foo" (containing "foo/.git" over the
     bare "foo.git". But we did not prefer a bare "foo" over
     "foo.git". With this patch, we do so.

  2. We would select directories that existed but didn't
     actually look like git repositories. With this patch,
     we make sure a selected directory looks like a git
     repo. Not only is this more sensible in general, but it
     will help anybody who is negatively affected by change
     (1) negatively (e.g., if they had "foo.git" next to its
     separate work tree "foo", and expect to keep finding
     "foo.git" when they reference "foo").

  3. The enter_repo code path would, given "foo", look for
     "foo.git/.git" (i.e., do the ".git" append magic even
     for a repo with working tree). The clone code path did
     not; with this patch, they now behave the same.

In the unlikely case of a working tree overlaying a bare
repo (i.e., a ".git" directory _inside_ a bare repo), we
continue to treat it as a working tree (prefering the
"inner" .git over the bare repo). This is mainly because the
combination seems nonsensical, and I'd rather stick with
existing behavior on the off chance that somebody is relying
on it.

f47182c852 server_supports(): parse feature list more carefully
We have been carefully choosing feature names used in the protocol
extensions so that the vocabulary does not contain a word that is a
substring of another word, so it is not a real problem, but we have
recently added "quiet" feature word, which would mean we cannot later
add some other word with "quiet" (e.g. "quiet-push"), which is awkward.

Let's make sure that we can eventually be able to do so by teaching the
clients and servers that feature words consist of non whitespace
letters. This parser also allows us to later add features with parameters
e.g. "feature=1.5" (parameter values need to be quoted for whitespaces,
but we will worry about the detauls when we do introduce them).

afe7c5ff1f drop "match" parameter from get_remote_heads
The get_remote_heads function reads the list of remote refs
during git protocol session. It dates all the way back to
def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack", 2005-07-04).
At that time, the idea was to come up with a list of refs we
were interested in, and then filter the list as we got it
from the remote side.

Later, 1baaae5 (Make maximal use of the remote refs,
2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.

As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

dd621df9cd refs DWIMmery: use the same rule for both "git fetch" and others
"git log frotz" can DWIM to "refs/remotes/frotz/HEAD", but in the remote
access context, "git fetch frotz" to fetch what the other side happened to
have fetched from what it calls 'frotz' (which may not have any relation
to what we consider is 'frotz') the last time would not make much sense,
so the fetch rules table did not include "refs/remotes/%.*s/HEAD".

When the user really wants to, "git fetch $there remotes/frotz/HEAD" would
let her do so anyway, so this is not about safety or security; it merely
is about confusion avoidance and discouraging meaningless usage.

Specifically, it is _not_ about ambiguity avoidance. A name that would
become ambiguous if we use the same rules table for both fetch and local
rev-parse would be ambiguous locally at the remote side.

So for the same reason as we added rule to allow "git fetch $there v1.0"
instead of "git fetch $there tags/v1.0" in the previous commit, here is a
bit longer rope for the users, which incidentally simplifies our code.

4c08018204 pack-objects: protect against disappearing packs
It's possible that while pack-objects is running, a
simultaneously running prune process might delete a pack
that we are interested in. Because we load the pack indices
early on, we know that the pack contains our item, but by
the time we try to open and map it, it is gone.

Since c715f78, we already protect against this in the normal
object access code path, but pack-objects accesses the packs
at a lower level.  In the normal access path, we call
find_pack_entry, which will call find_pack_entry_one on each
pack index, which does the actual lookup. If it gets a hit,
we will actually open and verify the validity of the
matching packfile (using c715f78's is_pack_valid). If we
can't open it, we'll issue a warning and pretend that we
didn't find it, causing us to go on to the next pack (or on
to loose objects).

Furthermore, we will cache the descriptor to the opened
packfile. Which means that later, when we actually try to
access the object, we are likely to still have that packfile
opened, and won't care if it has been unlinked from the
filesystem.

Notice the "likely" above. If there is another pack access
in the interim, and we run out of descriptors, we could
close the pack. And then a later attempt to access the
closed pack could fail (we'll try to re-open it, of course,
but it may have been deleted). In practice, this doesn't
happen because we tend to look up items and then access them
immediately.

Pack-objects does not follow this code path. Instead, it
accesses the packs at a much lower level, using
find_pack_entry_one directly. This means we skip the
is_pack_valid check, and may end up with the name of a
packfile, but no open descriptor.

We can add the same is_pack_valid check here. Unfortunately,
the access patterns of pack-objects are not quite as nice
for keeping lookup and object access together. We look up
each object as we find out about it, and the only later when
writing the packfile do we necessarily access it. Which
means that the opened packfile may be closed in the interim.

In practice, however, adding this check still has value, for
three reasons.

  1. If you have a reasonable number of packs and/or a
     reasonable file descriptor limit, you can keep all of
     your packs open simultaneously. If this is the case,
     then the race is impossible to trigger.

  2. Even if you can't keep all packs open at once, you
     may end up keeping the deleted one open (i.e., you may
     get lucky).

  3. The race window is shortened. You may notice early that
     the pack is gone, and not try to access it. Triggering
     the problem without this check means deleting the pack
     any time after we read the list of index files, but
     before we access the looked-up objects.  Triggering it
     with this check means deleting the pack means deleting
     the pack after we do a lookup (and successfully access
     the packfile), but before we access the object. Which
     is a smaller window.

2548183bad fix phantom untracked files when core.ignorecase is set
When core.ignorecase is turned on and there are stale index
entries, "git commit" can sometimes report directories as
untracked, even though they contain tracked files.

You can see an example of this with:

    # make a case-insensitive repo
    git init repo && cd repo &&
    git config core.ignorecase true &&

    # with some tracked files in a subdir
    mkdir subdir &&
    > subdir/one &&
    > subdir/two &&
    git add . &&
    git commit -m base &&

    # now make the index entries stale
    touch subdir/* &&

    # and then ask commit to update those entries and show
    # us the status template
    git commit -a

which will report "subdir/"  as untracked, even though it
clearly contains two tracked files. What is happening in the
commit program is this:

  1. We load the index, and for each entry, insert it into the index's
     name_hash. In addition, if ignorecase is turned on, we make an
     entry in the name_hash for the directory (e.g., "contrib/"), which
     uses the following code from 5102c61's hash_index_entry_directories:

        hash = hash_name(ce->name, ptr - ce->name);
        if (!lookup_hash(hash, &istate->name_hash)) {
                pos = insert_hash(hash, &istate->name_hash);
		if (pos) {
			ce->next = *pos;
			*pos = ce;
		}
        }

     Note that we only add the directory entry if there is not already an
     entry.

  2. We run add_files_to_cache, which gets updated information for each
     cache entry. It helpfully inserts this information into the cache,
     which calls replace_index_entry. This in turn calls
     remove_name_hash() on the old entry, and add_name_hash() on the new
     one. But remove_name_hash doesn't actually remove from the hash, it
     only marks it as "no longer interesting" (from cache.h):

      /*
       * We don't actually *remove* it, we can just mark it invalid so that
       * we won't find it in lookups.
       *
       * Not only would we have to search the lists (simple enough), but
       * we'd also have to rehash other hash buckets in case this makes the
       * hash bucket empty (common). So it's much better to just mark
       * it.
       */
      static inline void remove_name_hash(struct cache_entry *ce)
      {
              ce->ce_flags |= CE_UNHASHED;
      }

     This is OK in the specific-file case, since the entries in the hash
     form a linked list, and we can just skip the "not here anymore"
     entries during lookup.

     But for the directory hash entry, we will _not_ write a new entry,
     because there is already one there: the old one that is actually no
     longer interesting!

  3. While traversing the directories, we end up in the
     directory_exists_in_index_icase function to see if a directory is
     interesting. This in turn checks index_name_exists, which will
     look up the directory in the index's name_hash. We see the old,
     deleted record, and assume there is nothing interesting. The
     directory gets marked as untracked, even though there are index
     entries in it.

The problem is in the code I showed above:

        hash = hash_name(ce->name, ptr - ce->name);
        if (!lookup_hash(hash, &istate->name_hash)) {
                pos = insert_hash(hash, &istate->name_hash);
		if (pos) {
			ce->next = *pos;
			*pos = ce;
		}
        }

Having a single cache entry that represents the directory is
not enough; that entry may go away if the index is changed.
It may be tempting to say that the problem is in our removal
method; if we removed the entry entirely instead of simply
marking it as "not here anymore", then we would know we need
to insert a new entry. But that only covers this particular
case of remove-replace. In the more general case, consider
something like this:

  1. We add "foo/bar" and "foo/baz" to the index. Each gets
     their own entry in name_hash, plus we make a "foo/"
     entry that points to "foo/bar".

  2. We remove the "foo/bar" entry from the index, and from
     the name_hash.

  3. We ask if "foo/" exists, and see no entry, even though
     "foo/baz" exists.

So we need that directory entry to have the list of _all_
cache entries that indicate that the directory is tracked.
So that implies making a linked list as we do for other
entries, like:

  hash = hash_name(ce->name, ptr - ce->name);
  pos = insert_hash(hash, &istate->name_hash);
  if (pos) {
	  ce->next = *pos;
	  *pos = ce;
  }

But that's not right either. In fact, it shows a second bug
in the current code, which is that the "ce->next" pointer is
supposed to be linking entries for a specific filename
entry, but here we are overwriting it for the directory
entry. So the same cache entry ends up in two linked lists,
but they share the same "next" pointer.

As it turns out, this second bug can't be triggered in the
current code. The "if (pos)" conditional is totally dead
code; pos will only be non-NULL if there was an existing
hash entry, and we already checked that there wasn't one
through our call to lookup_hash.

But fixing the first bug means taking out that call to
lookup_hash, which is going to activate the buggy dead code,
and we'll end up splicing the two linked lists together.

So we need to have a separate next pointer for the list in
the directory bucket, and we need to traverse that list in
index_name_exists when we are looking up a directory.

This bloats "struct cache_entry" by a few bytes. Which is
annoying, because it's only necessary when core.ignorecase
is enabled. There's not an easy way around it, short of
separating out the "next" pointers from cache_entry entirely
(i.e., having a separate "cache_entry_list" struct that gets
stored in the name_hash). In practice, it probably doesn't
matter; we have thousands of cache entries, compared to the
millions of objects (where adding 4 bytes to the struct
actually does impact performance).

64589a03a8 attr: read core.attributesfile from git_default_core_config
This code calls git_config from a helper function to parse the config entry
it is interested in.  Calling git_config in this way may cause a problem if
the helper function can be called after a previous call to git_config by
another function since the second call to git_config may reset some
variable to the value in the config file which was previously overridden.

The above is not a problem in this case since the function passed to
git_config only parses one config entry and the variable it sets is not
assigned outside of the parsing function.  But a programmer who desires
all of the standard config options to be parsed may be tempted to modify
git_attr_config() so that it falls back to git_default_config() and then it
_would_ be vulnerable to the above described behavior.

So, move the call to git_config up into the top-level cmd_* function and
move the responsibility for parsing core.attributesfile into the main
config file parser.

Which is only the logical thing to do ;-)

d4e85a1afe get_sha1_hex(): do not read past a NUL character
Previously, get_sha1_hex() would read one character past the end of a
null-terminated string whose strlen was an even number less than 40.
Although the function correctly returned -1 in these cases, the extra
memory access might have been to uninitialized (or even, conceivably,
unallocated) memory.

0f64bfa956 ls-files: fix pathspec display on error
The following sequence of commands reveals an issue with error
reporting of relative paths:

 $ mkdir sub
 $ cd sub
 $ git ls-files --error-unmatch ../bbbbb
 error: pathspec 'b' did not match any file(s) known to git.
 $ git commit --error-unmatch ../bbbbb
 error: pathspec 'b' did not match any file(s) known to git.

This bug is visible only if the normalized path (i.e., the relative
path from the repository root) is longer than the prefix.
Otherwise, the code skips over the normalized path and reads from
an unused memory location which still contains a leftover of the
original command line argument.

So instead, use the existing facilities to deal with relative paths
correctly.

Also fix inconsistency between "checkout" and "commit", e.g.

    $ cd Documentation
    $ git checkout nosuch.txt
    error: pathspec 'Documentation/nosuch.txt' did not match...
    $ git commit nosuch.txt
    error: pathspec 'nosuch.txt' did not match...

by propagating the prefix down the codepath that reports the error.

8894d53580 commit: allow partial commits with relative paths
In order to do partial commits, git-commit overlays a tree on the
cache and checks pathspecs against the result. Currently, the
overlaying is done using "prefix" which prevents relative pathspecs
with ".." and absolute pathspec from matching when they refer to
files not under "prefix" and absent from the index, but still in
the tree (i.e.  files staged for removal).

The point of providing a prefix at all is performance optimization.
If we say there is no common prefix for the files of interest, then
we have to read the entire tree into the index.

But even if we cannot use the working directory as a prefix, we can
still figure out if there is a common prefix for all given paths,
and use that instead. The pathspec_prefix() routine from ls-files.c
does exactly that.

Any use of global variables is removed from pathspec_prefix() so
that it can be called from commit.c.

a1bea2c1fc ref namespaces: infrastructure
Add support for dividing the refs of a single repository into multiple
namespaces, each of which can have its own branches, tags, and HEAD.
Git can expose each namespace as an independent repository to pull from
and push to, while sharing the object store, and exposing all the refs
to operations such as git-gc.

Storing multiple repositories as namespaces of a single repository
avoids storing duplicate copies of the same objects, such as when
storing multiple branches of the same source.  The alternates mechanism
provides similar support for avoiding duplicates, but alternates do not
prevent duplication between new objects added to the repositories
without ongoing maintenance, while namespaces do.

To specify a namespace, set the GIT_NAMESPACE environment variable to
the namespace.  For each ref namespace, git stores the corresponding
refs in a directory under refs/namespaces/.  For example,
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo will store refs under refs/namespaces/foo/.  You can
also specify namespaces via the --namespace option to git.

Note that namespaces which include a / will expand to a hierarchy of
namespaces; for example, GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar will store refs under
refs/namespaces/foo/refs/namespaces/bar/.  This makes paths in
GIT_NAMESPACE behave hierarchically, so that cloning with
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar produces the same result as cloning with
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo and cloning from that repo with GIT_NAMESPACE=bar.  It
also avoids ambiguity with strange namespace paths such as
foo/refs/heads/, which could otherwise generate directory/file conflicts
within the refs directory.

Add the infrastructure for ref namespaces: handle the GIT_NAMESPACE
environment variable and --namespace option, and support iterating over
refs in a namespace.

ef49a7a012 zlib: zlib can only process 4GB at a time
The size of objects we read from the repository and data we try to put
into the repository are represented in "unsigned long", so that on larger
architectures we can handle objects that weigh more than 4GB.

But the interface defined in zlib.h to communicate with inflate/deflate
limits avail_in (how many bytes of input are we calling zlib with) and
avail_out (how many bytes of output from zlib are we ready to accept)
fields effectively to 4GB by defining their type to be uInt.

In many places in our code, we allocate a large buffer (e.g. mmap'ing a
large loose object file) and tell zlib its size by assigning the size to
avail_in field of the stream, but that will truncate the high octets of
the real size. The worst part of this story is that we often pass around
z_stream (the state object used by zlib) to keep track of the number of
used bytes in input/output buffer by inspecting these two fields, which
practically limits our callchain to the same 4GB limit.

Wrap z_stream in another structure git_zstream that can express avail_in
and avail_out in unsigned long. For now, just die() when the caller gives
a size that cannot be given to a single zlib call. In later patches in the

55bb5c9147 zlib: wrap deflate side of the API
Wrap deflateInit, deflate, and deflateEnd for everybody, and the sole use
of deflateInit2 in remote-curl.c to tell the library to use gzip header
and trailer in git_deflate_init_gzip().

There is only one caller that cares about the status from deflateEnd().
Introduce git_deflate_end_gently() to let that sole caller retrieve the
status and act on it (i.e. die) for now, but we would probably want to
make inflate_end/deflate_end die when they ran out of memory and get
rid of the _gently() kind.

3de89c9d42 verify-pack: use index-pack --verify
This finally gets rid of the inefficient verify-pack implementation that
walks objects in the packfile in their object name order and replaces it
with a call to index-pack --verify. As a side effect, it also removes
packed_object_info_detail() API which is rather expensive.

As this changes the way errors are reported (verify-pack used to rely on
the usual runtime error detection routine unpack_entry() to diagnose the
CRC errors in an entry in the *.idx file; index-pack --verify checks the
whole *.idx file in one go), update a test that expected the string "CRC"
to appear in the error message.

dd8e912190 streaming_write_entry(): use streaming API in write_entry()
When the output to a path does not have to be converted, we can read from
the object database from the streaming API and write to the file in the
working tree, without having to hold everything in the memory.

The ident, auto- and safe- crlf conversions inherently require you to read
the whole thing before deciding what to do, so while it is technically
possible to support them by using a buffer of an unbound size or rewinding
and reading the stream twice, it is less practical than the traditional
"read the whole thing in core and convert" approach.

Adding streaming filters for the other conversions on top of this should
be doable by tweaking the can_bypass_conversion() function (it should be
renamed to can_filter_stream() when it happens). Then the streaming API
can be extended to wrap the git_istream streaming_write_entry() opens on
the underlying object in another git_istream that reads from it, filters
what is read, and let the streaming_write_entry() read the filtered
result. But that is outside the scope of this series.

The original interface for sha1_object_info() takes an object name and
gives back a type and its size (the latter is given only when it was
asked).  The new interface wraps its implementation and exposes a bit

 - where the object is stored (loose? cached? packed?)
 - if packed, where in which packfile?

 * In the earlier round, this used u.pack.delta to record the length of
   the delta chain, but the caller is not necessarily interested in the
   length of the delta chain per-se, but may only want to know if it is a
   delta against another object or is stored as a deflated data. Calling
   packed_object_info_detail() involves walking the reverse index chain to
   compute the store size of the object and is unnecessarily expensive.

   We could resurrect the code if a new caller wants to know, but I doubt
   it.

5bf29b9500 read_sha1_file(): allow selective bypassing of replacement mechanism
The way "object replacement" mechanism was tucked to the read_sha1_file()
interface was suboptimal in a couple of ways:

 - Callers that want it to die with useful diagnosis upon seeing a corrupt
   object does not have a way to say that they do not want any object
   replacement.

 - Callers who do not want it to die but want to handle the errors
   themselves are told to arrange to call read_object(), but the function
   does not use the replacement mechanism, and also it is a file scope
   static function that not many callers can call to begin with.

This adds a read_sha1_file_extended() that takes a set of flags; the
callers of read_sha1_file() passes a flag READ_SHA1_FILE_REPLACE to ask
for object replacement mechanism to kick in.

Later, we could add another flag bit to tell the function to return an
error instead of dying and then remove the misguided "call read_object()
yourself".

e1111cef23 inline lookup_replace_object() calls
In a repository without object replacement, lookup_replace_object() should
be a no-op. Check the flag "read_replace_refs" on the side of the caller,
and bypess a function call when we know we are not dealing with replacement.

Also, even when we are set up to replace objects, if we do not find any
replacement defined, flip that flag off to avoid function call overhead
for all the later object accesses.

As this change the semantics of the flag from "do we need read the
replacement definition?" to "do we need to check with the lookup table?"
the flag needs to be renamed later to something saner, e.g. "use_replace",
when the codebase is calmer, but not now.

"git cmd :/no-such-string-ever-existed" runs an extra round of get_sha1()
since 009fee4 (Detailed diagnosis when parsing an object name fails.,
2009-12-07).  Once without error diagnosis to see there is no commit with
such a string in the log message (hence "it cannot be a ref"), and after
seeing that :/no-such-string-ever-existed is not a filename (hence "it
cannot be a path, either"), another time to give "better diagnosis".

The thing is, the second time it runs, we already know that traversing the
history all the way down to the root will _not_ find any matching commit.

Rename misguided "gently" parameter, which is turned off _only_ when the
"detailed diagnosis" codepath knows that it cannot be a ref and making the
call only for the caller to die with a message.  Flip its meaning (and
adjust the callers) and call it "only_to_die", which is not a great name,
but it describes far more clearly what the codepaths that switches their
behaviour based on this variable do.

90a6464b4a rerere: make sure it works even in a workdir attached to a young repository
The git-new-workdir script in contrib/ makes a new work tree by sharing
many subdirectories of the .git directory with the original repository.
When rerere.enabled is set in the original repository, but the user has
not encountered any conflicts yet, the original repository may not yet
have .git/rr-cache directory.

When rerere wants to run in a new work tree created from such a young
original repository, it fails to mkdir(2) .git/rr-cache that is a symlink
to a yet-to-be-created directory.

There are three possible approaches to this:

 - A naive solution is not to create a symlink in the git-new-workdir
   script to a directory the original does not have (yet).  This is not a
   solution, as we tend to lazily create subdirectories of .git/, and
   having rerere.enabled configuration set is a strong indication that the
   user _wants_ to have this lazy creation to happen;

 - We could always create .git/rr-cache upon repository creation.  This is
   tempting but will not help people with existing repositories.

 - Detect this case by seeing that mkdir(2) failed with EEXIST, checking
   that the path is a symlink, and try running mkdir(2) on the link
   target.

This patch solves the issue by doing the third one.

Strictly speaking, this is incomplete.  It does not attempt to handle
relative symbolic link that points into the original repository, but this
is good enough to help people who use contrib/workdir/git-new-workdir
script.

Now that test-lib sets $HOME to protect against pollution from user
settings, GIT_CONFIG_NOGLOBAL is not needed for use by the test
suite any more.  And as luck would have it, a quick code search
reveals no other users in the wild.

This patch does not affect GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM, which is still

dce9648916 Make the default abbrev length configurable
The default of 7 comes from fairly early in git development, when
seven hex digits was a lot (it covers about 250+ million hash
values). Back then I thought that 65k revisions was a lot (it was what
we were about to hit in BK), and each revision tends to be about 5-10
new objects or so, so a million objects was a big number.

These days, the kernel isn't even the largest git project, and even
the kernel has about 220k revisions (_much_ bigger than the BK tree
ever was) and we are approaching two million objects. At that point,
seven hex digits is still unique for a lot of them, but when we're
talking about just two orders of magnitude difference between number
of objects and the hash size, there _will_ be collisions in truncated
hash values. It's no longer even close to unrealistic - it happens all
the time.

We should both increase the default abbrev that was unrealistically
small, _and_ add a way for people to set their own default per-project
in the git config file.

This is the first step to first make it configurable; the default of 7
is not raised yet.

bbc30f9963 add packet tracing debug code
This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given
program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or
other protocol issues.

To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest
level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the
packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK",
which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing
(since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to
read, at least not in the trace format).

We show both written and read packets. In the local case,
this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the
sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where
the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full
conversation.

Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>,
where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.

Right now you turn all tracing off and on with GIT_TRACE. To
support new types of tracing without forcing the user to see
all of them, we will soon support turning each tracing area

This patch lays the groundwork by providing an interface
which does not assume GIT_TRACE. However, we still maintain
the trace_printf interface so that existing callers do not
need to be refactored.

6578483036 i18n: add no-op _() and N_() wrappers
The _ function is for translating strings into the user's chosen
language.  The N_ macro just marks translatable strings for the
xgettext(1) tool without translating them; it is intended for use in
contexts where a function call cannot be used.  So, for example:

	fprintf(stderr, _("Expansion of alias '%s' failed; "
		"'%s' is not a git command\n"),
		cmd, argv[0]);

and

	const char *unpack_plumbing_errors[NB_UNPACK_TREES_ERROR_TYPES] = {
		/* ERROR_WOULD_OVERWRITE */
		N_("Entry '%s' would be overwritten by merge. Cannot merge."),
	[...]

Define such _ and N_ in a new gettext.h and include it in cache.h, so
they can be used everywhere.  Each just returns its argument for now.
_ is a function rather than a macro like N_ to avoid the temptation to
use _("foo") as a string literal (which would be a compile-time error
once _(s) expands to an expression for the translation of s).

b09c53a3e3 Sanity-check config variable names
Sanity-check config variable names when adding and retrieving them.  As a side
effect code duplication between git_config_set_multivar and get_value (in
builtin/config.c) was removed and the common functionality was placed in
git_config_parse_key.

This breaks a test in t1300 which used invalid section-less keys in the tests
for "git -c". However, allowing such names there was useless, since there was
no way to set them via config file, and no part of git actually tried to use
section-less keys. This patch updates the test to use more realistic examples
as well as adding its own test.

53c403116a push.default: Rename 'tracking' to 'upstream'
Users are sometimes confused with two different types of "tracking" behavior
in Git: "remote-tracking" branches (e.g. refs/remotes/*/*) versus the
merge/rebase relationship between a local branch and its @{upstream}
(controlled by branch.foo.remote and branch.foo.merge config settings).

When the push.default is set to 'tracking', it specifies that a branch should
be pushed to its @{upstream} branch. In other words, setting push.default to
'tracking' applies only to the latter of the above two types of "tracking"
behavior.

In order to make this more understandable to the user, we rename the
push.default == 'tracking' option to push.default == 'upstream'.

push.default == 'tracking' is left as a deprecated synonym for 'upstream'.

dab0d4108d correct type of EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN
Functions such as hashcmp that expect a binary SHA-1 value take
parameters of type "unsigned char *" to avoid accepting a textual
SHA-1 passed by mistake.  Unfortunately, this means passing the string
literal EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN requires an ugly cast.  Tweak the
definition of EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN to produce a value of more
convenient type.

In the future the definition might change to

	extern const unsigned char empty_tree_sha1_bin[20];
	#define EMPTY_TREE_SHA1_BIN empty_tree_sha1_bin
