0fa2eb530f add: warn when -u or -A is used without pathspec
Most Git commands that can be used with or without pathspec operate
tree-wide by default, the pathspec being used to restrict their
scope.  A few exceptions are: 'git grep', 'git clean', 'git add -u'
and 'git add -A'.  When run in a subdirectory without pathspec, they
operate only on paths in the current directory.

The inconsistency of 'git add -u' and 'git add -A' is particularly
problematic since other 'git add' subcommands (namely 'git add -p'
and 'git add -e') are tree-wide by default.  It also means that "git
add -u && git commit" will record a state that is different from
what is recorded with "git commit -a".

Flipping the default now is unacceptable, so let's start training
users to type 'git add -u|-A :/' or 'git add -u|-A .' explicitly, to
prepare for the next steps:

* forbid 'git add -u|-A' without pathspec (like 'git add' without
  option)

* much later, maybe, re-allow 'git add -u|-A' without pathspec, that
  will add all tracked and modified files, or all files, tree-wide.

A nice side effect of this patch is that it makes the :/ magic
pathspec easier to discover for users.

When the command is called from the root of the tree, there is no
ambiguity and no need to change the behavior, hence no need to warn.

3ac221a78e git-remote-testpy: fix path hashing on Python 3
When this change was originally made (0846b0c - git-remote-testpy:
hash bytes explicitly , I didn't realise that the "hex" encoding we
chose is a "bytes to bytes" encoding so it just fails with an error
on Python 3 in the same way as the original code.

It is not possible to provide a single code path that works on
Python 2 and Python 3 since Python 2.x will attempt to decode the
string before encoding it, which fails for strings that are not
valid in the default encoding.  Python 3.1 introduced the
"surrogateescape" error handler which handles this correctly and
permits a bytes -> unicode -> bytes round-trip to be lossless.  As
the original came from reading the filesystem path, we convert them
back into the original bytes encoded in sys.getfilesystemencoding().

At this point Python 3.0 is unsupported so we don't go out of our
way to try to support it.

62957bea0c mergetool--lib: don't call "exit" in setup_tool
This will make it easier to use setup_tool in places where we expect
that the selected tool will not support the current mode.

We need to introduce a new return code for setup_tool to differentiate
between the case of "the selected tool is invalid" and "the selected
tool is not a built-in" since we must call setup_tool when a custom
'merge.<tool>.path' is configured for a built-in tool but avoid failing
when the configured tool is not a built-in.

4cea4d6608 git p4 test: use test_chmod for cygwin
This test does a commit that is a pure mode change, submits
it to p4 but causes the submit to fail.  It verifies that
the state in p4 as well as the client directory are both
unmodified after the failed submit.

On cygwin, "chmod +x" does nothing, so use the test_chmod
function to modify the index directly too.

Also on cygwin, the executable bit cannot be seen in the
filesystem, so avoid that part of the test.  The checks of
p4 state are still valid, though.

e9df0f9c7a git p4: cygwin p4 client does not mark read-only
There are some old versions of p4, compiled for cygwin, that
treat read-only files differently.

Normally, a file that is not open is read-only, meaning that
"test -w" on the file is false.  This works on unix, and it works
on windows using the NT version of p4.  The cygwin version
of p4, though, changes the permissions, but does not set the
windows read-only attribute, so "test -w" returns false.

Notice this oddity and make the tests work, even on cygiwn.

7f0e596276 git p4: scrub crlf for utf16 files on windows
Files of type utf16 are handled with "p4 print" instead of the
normal "p4 -G print" interface due to how the latter does not
produce correct output.  See 55aa571 (git-p4: handle utf16
filetype properly, 2011-09-17) for details.

On windows, though, "p4 print" can not be told which line
endings to use, as there is no underlying client, and always
chooses crlf, even for utf16 files.  Convert the \r\n into \n
when importing utf16 files.

The fix for this is complex, in that the problem is a property
of the NT version of p4.  There are old versions of p4 that
were compiled directly for cygwin that should not be subjected
to text replacement.  The right check here, then, is to look
at the p4 version, not the OS version.  Note also that on cygwin,
platform.system() is "CYGWIN_NT-5.1" or similar, not "Windows".

Add a function to memoize the p4 version string and use it to
check for "/NT", indicating the Windows build of p4.

bb5ea62d80 git p4: remove unreachable windows \r\n conversion code
Replacing \r\n with \n on windows was added in c1f9197 (Replace
\r\n with \n when importing from p4 on Windows, 2007-05-24), to
work around an oddity with "p4 print" on windows.  Text files
are printed with "\r\r\n" endings, regardless of whether they
were created on unix or windows, and regardless of the client
LineEnd setting.

As of d2c6dd3 (use p4CmdList() to get file contents in Python
dicts. This is more robust., 2007-05-23), git-p4 uses "p4 -G
print", which generates files in a raw format.  As the native
line ending format if p4 is \n, there will be no \r\n in the
raw text.

Actually, it is possible to generate a text file so that the
p4 representation includes embedded \r\n, even though this is not
normal on either windows or unix.  In that case the code would
have mistakenly stripped them out, but now they will be left
intact.

More information on how p4 deals with line endings is here:

cfa96496bd git p4 test: translate windows paths for cygwin
Native windows binaries do not understand posix-like
path mapping offered by cygwin.  Convert paths to native
using "cygpath --windows" before presenting them to p4d.

This is done using the AltRoots mechanism of p4.  Both the
posix and windows forms are put in the client specification,
allowing p4 to find its location by native path even though
the environment reports a different PWD.

Shell operations in tests will use the normal form of $cli,
which will look like a posix path in cygwin, while p4 will
use AltRoots to match against the windows form of the working
directory.

This mechanism also handles the symlink issue that was fixed in
23bd0c9 (git p4 test: use real_path to resolve p4 client
symlinks, 2012-06-27).  Now that every p4 client view has
an AltRoots with the real_path in it, explicitly calculating
the real_path elsewhere is not necessary.

b495697b82 fetch-pack: avoid repeatedly re-scanning pack directory
When we look up a sha1 object for reading via parse_object() =>
read_sha1_file() => read_object() callpath, we first check
packfiles, and then loose objects. If we still haven't found it, we
re-scan the list of packfiles in `objects/pack`. This final step
ensures that we can co-exist with a simultaneous repack process
which creates a new pack and then prunes the old object.

This extra re-scan usually does not have a performance impact for
two reasons:

  1. If an object is missing, then typically the re-scan will find a
     new pack, then no more misses will occur.  Or if it truly is
     missing, then our next step is usually to die().

  2. Re-scanning is cheap enough that we do not even notice.

However, these do not always hold. The assumption in (1) is that the
caller is expecting to find the object. This is usually the case,
but the call to `parse_object` in `everything_local` does not follow
this pattern. It is looking to see whether we have objects that the
remote side is advertising, not something we expect to
have. Therefore if we are fetching from a remote which has many refs
pointing to objects we do not have, we may end up re-scanning the
pack directory many times.

Even with this extra re-scanning, the impact is often not noticeable
due to (2); we just readdir() the packs directory and skip any packs
that are already loaded. However, if there are a large number of
packs, even enumerating the directory can be expensive, especially
if we do it repeatedly.

Having this many packs is a good sign the user should run `git gc`,
but it would still be nice to avoid having to scan the directory at
all.

131b8fcbfb fetch: run gc --auto after fetching
We generally try to run "gc --auto" after any commands that
might introduce a large number of new objects. An obvious
place to do so is after running "fetch", which may introduce
new loose objects or packs (depending on the size of the
fetch).

While an active developer repository will probably
eventually trigger a "gc --auto" on another action (e.g.,
git-rebase), there are two good reasons why it is nicer to
do it at fetch time:

  1. Read-only repositories which track an upstream (e.g., a
     continuous integration server which fetches and builds,
     but never makes new commits) will accrue loose objects
     and small packs, but never coalesce them into a more
     efficient larger pack.

  2. Fetching is often already perceived to be slow to the
     user, since they have to wait on the network. It's much
     more pleasant to include a potentially slow auto-gc as
     part of the already-long network fetch than in the
     middle of productive work with git-rebase or similar.

be5c9fb904 logmsg_reencode: lazily load missing commit buffers
Usually a commit that makes it to logmsg_reencode will have
been parsed, and the commit->buffer struct member will be
valid. However, some code paths will free commit buffers
after having used them (for example, the log traversal
machinery will do so to keep memory usage down).

Most of the time this is fine; log should only show a commit
once, and then exits. However, there are some code paths
where this does not work. At least two are known:

  1. A commit may be shown as part of a regular ref, and
     then it may be shown again as part of a submodule diff
     (e.g., if a repo contains refs to both the superproject
     and subproject).

  2. A notes-cache commit may be shown during "log --all",
     and then later used to access a textconv cache during a
     diff.

Lazily loading in logmsg_reencode does not necessarily catch
all such cases, but it should catch most of them. Users of
the commit buffer tend to be either parsing for structure
(in which they will call parse_commit, and either we will
already have parsed, or we will load commit->buffer lazily
there), or outputting (either to the user, or fetching a
part of the commit message via format_commit_message). In
the latter case, we should always be using logmsg_reencode
anyway (and typically we do so via the pretty-print
machinery).

If there are any cases that this misses, we can fix them up
to use logmsg_reencode (or handle them on a case-by-case
basis if that is inappropriate).

dd0d388c44 logmsg_reencode: never return NULL
The logmsg_reencode function will return the reencoded
commit buffer, or NULL if reencoding failed or no reencoding
was necessary. Since every caller then ends up checking for NULL
and just using the commit's original buffer, anyway, we can
be a bit more helpful and just return that buffer when we
would have returned NULL.

Since the resulting string may or may not need to be freed,
we introduce a logmsg_free, which checks whether the buffer
came from the commit object or not (callers either
implemented the same check already, or kept two separate
pointers, one to mark the buffer to be used, and one for the
to-be-freed string).

Pushing this logic into logmsg_* simplifies the callers, and
will let future patches lazily load the commit buffer in a
single place.

200ebe362c commit: drop useless xstrdup of commit message
When git-commit is asked to reuse a commit message via "-c",
we call read_commit_message, which looks up the commit and
hands back either the re-encoded result, or a copy of the
original. We make a copy in the latter case so that the
ownership semantics of the return value are clear (in either
case, it can be freed).

However, since we return a "const char *", and since the
resulting buffer's lifetime is the same as that of the whole
program, we never bother to free it at all.

Let's just drop the copy. That saves us a copy in the common
case. While it does mean we leak in the re-encode case, it
doesn't matter, since we are relying on program exit to free
the memory anyway.

9ecd9f5dc3 Merge branch 'nd/retire-fnmatch'
Replace our use of fnmatch(3) with a more feature-rich wildmatch.
A handful patches at the bottom have been moved to nd/wildmatch to
graduate as part of that branch, before this series solidifies.

We may want to mark USE_WILDMATCH as an experimental curiosity a
bit more clearly (i.e. should not be enabled in production
environment, because it will make the behaviour between builds
unpredictable).

* nd/retire-fnmatch:
  Makefile: add USE_WILDMATCH to use wildmatch as fnmatch
  wildmatch: advance faster in <asterisk> + <literal> patterns
  wildmatch: make a special case for "*/" with FNM_PATHNAME
  test-wildmatch: add "perf" command to compare wildmatch and fnmatch
  wildmatch: support "no FNM_PATHNAME" mode
  wildmatch: make dowild() take arbitrary flags
  wildmatch: rename constants and update prototype

abaf175cdf git-difftool: use git-mergetool--lib for "--tool-help"
The "--tool-help" option to git-difftool currently displays incorrect
output since it uses the names of the files in
"$GIT_EXEC_PATH/mergetools/" rather than the list of command names in
git-mergetool--lib.

Fix this by simply delegating the "--tool-help" argument to the
show_tool_help function in git-mergetool--lib.
