d6a2b05cbb Merge branch 'jc/builtin-am-signoff-regression-fix'

aab845424e am: match --signoff to the original scripted version
Linus noticed that the recently reimplemented "git am -s" defines
the trailer block too rigidly, resulting in an unnecessary blank
line between the existing sign-offs and his new sign-off.  An e-mail
submission sent to Linus in real life ends with mixture of sign-offs
and commentaries, e.g.

	title here

	message here

	Signed-off-by: Original Author <original@auth.or>
	[rv: tweaked frotz and nitfol]
	Signed-off-by: Re Viewer <rv@ew.er>
	Signed-off-by: Other Reviewer <other@rev.ewer>
	---
	patch here

Because the reimplementation reused append_signoff() helper that is
used by other codepaths, which is unaware that people intermix such
comments with their sign-offs in the trailer block, such a message
was judged to end with a non-trailer, resulting in an extra blank
line before adding a new sign-off.

The original scripted version of "git am" used a lot looser
definition, i.e. "if and only if there is no line that begins with
Signed-off-by:, add a blank line before adding a new sign-off".  For
the upcoming release, stop using the append_signoff() in "git am"
and reimplement the looser definition used by the scripted version
to use only in "git am" to fix this regression in "am" while
avoiding new regressions to other users of append_signoff().

In the longer term, we should look into loosening append_signoff()
so that other codepaths that add a new sign-off behave the same way
as "git am -s", but that is a task for post-release.

9dd330e6ca rerere: release lockfile in non-writing functions
There's a bug in builtin/am.c in which we take a lock on
MERGE_RR recursively. But rather than fix am.c, this patch
fixes the confusing interface from rerere.c that caused the
bug. Read on for the gory details.

The setup_rerere() function both reads the existing MERGE_RR
file, and takes MERGE_RR.lock. In the rerere() and
rerere_forget() functions, we end up in write_rr(), which
will then commit the lock file.

But for functions like rerere_clear() that do not write to
MERGE_RR, we expect the caller to have handled
setup_rerere(). That caller would then need to release the
lockfile, but it can't; the lock struct is local to
rerere.c.

For builtin/rerere.c, this is OK. We run a single rerere
operation and then exit immediately, which has the side
effect of rolling back the lockfile.

But in builtin/am.c, this is actively wrong. If we run "git
am -3 --skip", we call setup-rerere twice without releasing
the lock:

  1. The "--skip" causes us to call am_rerere_clear(), which
     calls setup_rerere(), but never drops the lock.

  2. We then proceed to the next patch.

  3. The "--3way" may cause us to call rerere() to handle
     conflicts in that patch, but we are already holding the
     lock. The lockfile code dies with:

     BUG: prepare_tempfile_object called for active object

We could fix this by having rerere_clear() call
rollback_lock_file(). But it feels a bit odd for it to roll
back a lockfile that it did not itself take. So let's
simplify the interface further, and handle setup_rerere in
the function itself, taking away the question from the
caller over whether they need to do so.

We can give rerere_gc() the same treatment, as well (even
though it doesn't have any callers besides builtin/rerere.c
at this point). Note that these functions don't take flags
from their callers to pass along to setup_rerere; that's OK,
because the flags would not be meaningful for what they are
doing.

Both of those functions need to hold the lock because even
though they do not write to MERGE_RR, they are still writing
and should be protected from a simultaneous "rerere" run.
But rerere_remaining(), "rerere diff", and "rerere status"
are all read-only operations. They want to setup_rerere(),
but do not care about taking the lock in the first place.
Since our update of MERGE_RR is the usual atomic rename done
by commit_lock_file, they can just do a lockless read. For
that, we teach setup_rerere a READONLY flag to avoid the
lock.

As a bonus, this pushes builtin/rerere.c's setup_rerere call
closer to the functions that use it. Which means that "git
rerere totally-bogus-command" will no longer silently
exit(0) in a repository without rerere enabled.

475a34451f commit: don't rewrite shared index unnecessarily
Remove a cache invalidation which would cause the shared index to be
rewritten on as-is commits.

When the cache-tree has changed, we need to update it.  But we don't
necessarily need to update the shared index.  So setting
active_cache_changed to SOMETHING_CHANGED is unnecessary.  Instead, we
let update_main_cache_tree just update the CACHE_TREE_CHANGED bit.

In order to test this, make test-dump-split-index not segfault on
missing replace_bitmap/delete_bitmap.  This new codepath is not called
now that the test passes, but is necessary to avoid a segfault when the
new test is run with the old builtin/commit.c code.

payload with a LF.  If they forget to do so, the resulting file will
end with an incomplete line.

Teach write_file_v() to complete the incomplete line, if exists, so
that the callers do not have to.

With this, the caller-side fix in builtin/am.c becomes unnecessary.

2bd07065c3 describe --contains: default to HEAD when no commit-ish is given
'git describe --contains' doesn't default to HEAD when no commit is
given, and it doesn't produce any output, not even an error:

  ~/src/git ((v2.5.0))$ ./git describe --contains
  ~/src/git ((v2.5.0))$ ./git describe --contains HEAD
  v2.5.0^0

Unlike other 'git describe' options, the '--contains' code path is
implemented by calling 'name-rev' with a bunch of options plus all the
commit-ishes that were passed to 'git describe'.  If no commit-ish was
present, then 'name-rev' got invoked with none, which then leads to the
behavior illustrated above.

Porcelain commands usually default to HEAD when no commit-ish is given,
and 'git describe' already does so in all other cases, so it should do
so with '--contains' as well.

Pass HEAD to 'name-rev' when no commit-ish is given on the command line
to make '--contains' behave consistently with other 'git describe'
options.  While at it, use argv_array_pushv() instead of the loop to
pass commit-ishes to 'git name-rev'.

'git describe's short help already indicates that the commit-ish is
optional, but the synopsis in the man page doesn't, so update it
accordingly as well.

12d6ce1dba write_file(): drop "fatal" parameter
All callers except three passed 1 for the "fatal" parameter to ask
this function to die upon error, but to a casual reader of the code,
it was not all obvious what that 1 meant.  Instead, split the
function into two based on a common write_file_v() that takes the
flag, introduce write_file_gently() as a new way to attempt creating
a file without dying on error, and make three callers to call it.
