fast-import was relying on the fact that on most systems mmap() and
write() are synchronized by the filesystem's buffer cache. We were
relying on the ability to mmap() 20 bytes beyond the current end
of the file, then later fill in those bytes with a future write()
call, then read them through the previously obtained mmap() address.
This isn't always true with some implementations of NFS, but it is
especially not true with our NO_MMAP=YesPlease build time option used
on some platforms. If fast-import was built with NO_MMAP=YesPlease
we used the malloc()+pread() emulation and the subsequent write()
call does not update the trailing 20 bytes of a previously obtained
"mmap()" (aka malloc'd) address.
Under NO_MMAP that behavior causes unpack_entry() in sha1_file.c to
be unable to read an object header (or data) that has been unlucky
enough to be written to the packfile at a location such that it
is in the trailing 20 bytes of a window previously opened on that
same packfile.
This bug has gone unnoticed for a very long time as it is highly data
dependent. Not only does the object have to be placed at the right
position, but it also needs to be positioned behind some other object
that has been accessed due to a branch cache invalidation. In other
words the stars had to align just right, and if you did run into
this bug you probably should also have purchased a lottery ticket.
Fortunately the workaround is a lot easier than the bug explanation.
Before we allow unpack_entry() to read data from a pack window
that has also (possibly) been modified through write() we force
all existing windows on that packfile to be closed. By closing
the windows we ensure that any new access via the emulated mmap()
will reread the packfile, updating to the current file content.
This comes at a slight performance degredation as we cannot reuse
previously cached windows when we update the packfile. But it
is a fairly minor difference as the window closes happen at only
two points:
- When the packfile is finalized and its .idx is generated:
At this stage we are getting ready to update the refs and any
data access into the packfile is going to be random, and is
going after only the branch tips (to ensure they are valid).
Our existing windows (if any) are not likely to be positioned
at useful locations to access those final tip commits so we
probably were closing them before anyway.
- When the branch cache missed and we need to reload:
At this point fast-import is getting change commands for the next
commit and it needs to go re-read a tree object it previously
had written out to the packfile. What windows we had (if any)
are not likely to cover the tree in question so we probably were
closing them before anyway.
We do try to avoid unnecessarily closing windows in the second case
by checking to see if the packfile size has increased since the
last time we called unpack_entry() on that packfile. If the size
has not changed then we have not written additional data, and any
existing window is still vaild. This nicely handles the cases where
fast-import is going through a branch cache reload and needs to read
many trees at once. During such an event we are not likely to be
updating the packfile so we do not cycle the windows between reads.
With this change in place t9301-fast-export.sh (which was broken
by c3b0dec509) finally works again.

The lockfile API is a handy way to obtain a file that is cleaned
up if you die(). But sometimes you would need this sequence to
work:
1. hold_lock_file_for_update() to get a file descriptor for
writing;
2. write the contents out, without being able to decide if the
results should be committed or rolled back;
3. do something else that makes the decision --- and this
"something else" needs the lockfile not to have an open file
descriptor for writing (e.g. Windows do not want a open file
to be renamed);
4. call commit_lock_file() or rollback_lock_file() as
appropriately.
This adds close_lock_file() you can call between step 2 and 3 in
the above sequence.

This makes write_ref_sha1() more careful: it actually checks the SHA1 of
the ref it is updating, and refuses to update a ref with an object that it
cannot find.
Perhaps more importantly, it also refuses to update a branch head with a
non-commit object. I don't quite know *how* the stable series maintainers
were able to corrupt their repository to have a HEAD that pointed to a tag
rather than a commit object, but they did. Which results in a totally
broken repository that cannot be cloned or committed on.
So make it harder for people to shoot themselves in the foot like that.
The test t1400-update-ref.sh is fixed at the same time, as it
assumed that the commands involved in the particular test would
not care about corrupted repositories whose refs point at
nonexistant bogus objects. That assumption does not hold true
anymore.

There are two heuristics in Git to detect whether a file is binary
or text. One in xdiff-interface.c (which is taken from GNU diff)
relies on existence of the NUL byte at the beginning. However,
convert.c used a different heuristic, which relied on the percent
of non-printable symbols (less than 1% for text files).
Due to differences in detection whether a file is binary or not,
it was possible that a file that diff treats as binary could be
treated as text by CRLF conversion. This is very confusing for a
user who sees that 'git diff' shows the file as binary expects it
to be added as binary.
This patch makes is_binary to consider any file that contains at
least one NUL character as binary, to ensure that the heuristics
used for CRLF conversion is tighter than what is used by diff.

If we apply a hunk in either direction this may change the file's
status. For example if a file is completely unstaged, and has at
least two hunks in it and the user stages one hunk the file will
change from "Modified, not staged" to "Portions staged for commit".
Resetting the file path causes our trace on this variable to fire;
that trace is used to update the file header in the diff viewer to
the file's current status.

Often users setup a few source files and get a project rolling
before they create a Git repository for it. In such cases the
core Git tools allow users to initialize a new repository by
simply running `git init` at the desired root level directory.
We need to allow the same situation in git-gui; if the user is
trying to make a new repository we should let them do that to any
location they chose. If the directory already exists and already
has files contained within it we still should allow the user to
create a repository there. However we still need to disallow
creating a repository on top of an existing repository.

The codepath to prepare index files for the temporary and next
index file was closing file descriptor it obtained from the
lockfile API by hand, without letting the API know that the fd
should not be doubly closed.
This is not usually a problem (except it may get EBADFD) but if
we opened another fd for an entirely unrelated purpose (say, an
fd used to mmap a packfile) between the time we close the fd to
the index file and the time we commit or rollback the lockfile
(causing it to also try closing the recorded fd), the lockfile
API will close an incorrect file descriptor that is still used
for an entirely unrelated purpose.
There's four close(fd) calls in prepare_index() and they're all
incorrect. The open fd's are cleaned up in rollback_index_files() and
shouldn't be closed manually. The patch below gets rid of the extra
close() calls and should fix the problem.

This reverts commit 16335fdd7a.
We are calling overlay_tree_on_cache() which does use CE_UPDATE
flag to mark duplicated entries, which is the same as the
codepath in git-ls-files with its --with-tree option.
Because the pathname ce->name is given to path_list_insert()
which does not allow duplicates, there is no breakage either way
from the correctness point of view in this codepath, unlike the
one in ls-files. But avoiding unnecessary processing with a
single bit check is certainly better.
This hook thought to have found a conflict marker any time it saw
a 7-character combination of any of the characters '<>=' at the
beginning of a line, whereas it should only look for the *same*
character to appear repeatedly.
Also, restrict it to match exactly 7 times, to avoid matching the

Repositories generated by svnsync cannot be relied on to have
properly set revprops without newlines in UUIDs and URLs. There
may be broken versions of svnsync out there that append extra
newlines to UUIDs, or the revprops could've been changed by
repository administrators at any time, too.
At least one repository we've come across has an embedded
newline erroneously set in the svnsync-uuid prop. This is bad
because the trailing newline is taken as another record by the
Git.pm library, and the wantarray detection causes tmp_config()
to return an array with an empty-but-existing second element.
We will now strip leading and trailing whitespace both before
setting and after reading the uuid and url for svnsync values.
We will also force tmp_config to return a single scalar when
reading existing values.
SVN UUIDs should never have whitespace in them, and SVN
repository URLs should be URI-escaped, so neither of those
values we ever see in git-svn should actually have whitespace
in them.
