e66ef7ae6f Merge branch 'mh/fetch-tags-in-addition-to-normal-refs'
The "--tags" option to "git fetch" used to be literally a synonym to
a "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" refspec, which meant that (1) as an
explicit refspec given from the command line, it silenced the lazy
"git fetch" default that is configured, and (2) also as an explicit
refspec given from the command line, it interacted with "--prune"
to remove any tag that the remote we are fetching from does not
have.

This demotes it to an option; with it, we fetch all tags in
addition to what would be fetched without the option, and it does
not interact with the decision "--prune" makes to see what
remote-tracking refs the local has are missing the remote
counterpart.

6df5762db3 diff: don't read index when --no-index is given
git diff --no-index ... currently reads the index, during setup, when
calling gitmodules_config().  This results in worse performance when the
index is not actually needed.  This patch avoids calling
gitmodules_config() when the --no-index option is given.  The times for
executing "git diff --no-index" in the WebKit repository are improved as
follows:

Test                      HEAD~3            HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------
4001.1: diff --no-index   0.24(0.15+0.09)   0.01(0.00+0.00) -95.8%

An additional improvement of this patch is that "git diff --no-index" no
longer breaks when the index file is corrupt, which makes it possible to
use it for investigating the broken repository.

To improve the possible usage as investigation tool for broken
repositories, setup_git_directory_gently() is also not called when the
--no-index option is given.

Also add a test to guard against future breakages, and a performance
test to show the improvements.

769a4fa463 builtin/replace: unset read_replace_refs
When checking to see if some objects are of the same type
and when displaying the type of objects, git replace uses
the sha1_object_info() function.

Unfortunately this function by default respects replace
refs, so instead of the type of a replaced object, it
gives the type of the replacement object which might
be different.

To fix this bug, and because git replace should work at a
level before replacement takes place, let's unset the
read_replace_refs global variable at the beginning of
cmd_replace().

44f9f850e8 builtin/replace: teach listing using short, medium or full formats
By default when listing replace refs, only the sha1 of the
replaced objects are shown.

In many cases, it is much nicer to be able to list all the
sha1 of the replaced objects along with the sha1 of the
replacment objects.

And in other cases it might be interesting to also show the
types of the replaced and replacement objects.

This patch introduce a new --format=<fmt> option where
<fmt> can be any of the following:

	'short': this is the same as when no --format
		option is used, that is only the sha1 of
		the replaced objects are shown
	'medium': this also lists the sha1 of the
		replacement objects
	'full': this shows the sha1 and the type of both
		the replaced and the replacement objects

Some documentation and some tests will follow.

6554dfa97a cat-file: handle --batch format with missing type/size
Commit 98e2092 taught cat-file to stream blobs with --batch,
which requires that we look up the object type before
loading it into memory.  As a result, we now print the
object header from information in sha1_object_info, and the
actual contents from the read_sha1_file. We double-check
that the information we printed in the header matches the
content we are about to show.

Later, commit 93d2a60 allowed custom header lines for
--batch, and commit 5b08640 made type lookups optional. As a
result, specifying a header line without the type or size
means that we will not look up those items at all.

This causes our double-checking to erroneously die with an
error; we think the type or size has changed, when in fact
it was simply left at "0".

For the size, we can fix this by only doing the consistency
double-check when we have retrieved the size via
sha1_object_info. In the case that we have not retrieved the
value, that means we also did not print it, so there is
nothing for us to check that we are consistent with.

We could do the same for the type. However, besides our
consistency check, we also care about the type in deciding
whether to stream or not. So instead of handling the case
where we do not know the type, this patch instead makes sure
that we always trigger a type lookup when we are printing,
so that even a format without the type will stream as we
would in the normal case.

370c9268d1 cat-file: pass expand_data to print_object_or_die
We currently individually pass the sha1, type, and size
fields calculated by sha1_object_info. However, if we pass
the whole struct, the called function can make more
intelligent decisions about which fields were actually
filled by sha1_object_info.

This patch takes that first refactoring step, passing the
whole struct, so further patches can make those decisions
with less noise in their diffs. There should be no
functional change to this patch (aside from a minor typo fix
in the error message).

As a side effect, we can rename the local variables in the
function to "type" and "size", since the names are no longer
taken.

0d7d285f0e clone: use git protocol for cloning shallow repo locally
clone_local() does not handle $SRC/shallow. It could be made so, but
it's simpler to use fetch-pack/upload-pack instead.

This used to be caught by the check in upload-pack, which is triggered
by transport_get_remote_refs(), even in local clone case. The check is
now gone and check_everything_connected() should catch the result
incomplete repo. But check_everything_connected() will soon be skipped
in local clone case, opening a door to corrupt repo. This patch should
close that door.

0a1bc12b6e receive-pack: allow pushes that update .git/shallow
The basic 8 steps to update .git/shallow does not fully apply here
because the user may choose to accept just a few refs (while fetch
always accepts all refs). The steps are modified a bit.

1-6. same as before. After calling assign_shallow_commits_to_refs at
   step 6, each shallow commit has a bitmap that marks all refs that
   require it.

7. mark all "ours" shallow commits that are reachable from any
   refs. We will need to do the original step 7 on them later.

8. go over all shallow commit bitmaps, mark refs that require new
   shallow commits.

9. setup a strict temporary shallow file to plug all the holes, even
   if it may cut some of our history short. This file is used by all
   hooks. The hooks could use --shallow-file=$GIT_DIR/shallow to
   overcome this and reach everything in current repo.

10. go over the new refs one by one. For each ref, do the reachability
   test if it needs a shallow commit on the list from step 7. Remove
   it if it's reachable from our refs. Gather all required shallow
   commits, run check_everything_connected() with the new ref, then
   install them to .git/shallow.

This mode is disabled by default and can be turned on with
receive.shallowupdate

4820a33baa fetch: support fetching from a shallow repository
This patch just put together pieces from the 8 steps patch. We stop at
step 7 and reject refs that require new shallow commits.

Note that, by rejecting refs that require new shallow commits, we
leave dangling objects in the repo, which become "object islands" by
the next "git fetch" of the same source.

If the first fetch our "ours" set is zero and we do practically
nothing at step 7, "ours" is full at the next fetch and we may need to
walk through commits for reachability test. Room for improvement.

beea4152d9 clone: support remote shallow repository
Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new
.git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all
refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom.

Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more
importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's
probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others
are dropped.

One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A
shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's
attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not
reachable by any refs).

If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send
more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we
incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will
not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not
desired.

Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for
security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a
tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster
everyday.

A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8
steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the
shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

ad491366de make the sender advertise shallow commits to the receiver
If either receive-pack or upload-pack is called on a shallow
repository, shallow commits (*) will be sent after the ref
advertisement (but before the packet flush), so that the receiver has
the full "shape" of the sender's commit graph. This will be needed for
the receiver to update its .git/shallow if necessary.

This breaks the protocol for all clients trying to push to a shallow
repo, or fetch from one. Which is basically the same end result as
today's "is_repository_shallow() && die()" in receive-pack and
upload-pack. New clients will be made aware of shallow upstream and
can make use of this information.

The sender must send all shallow commits that are sent in the
following pack. It may send more shallow commits than necessary.

upload-pack for example may choose to advertise no shallow commits if
it knows in advance that the pack it's going to send contains no
shallow commits. But upload-pack is the server, so we choose the
cheaper way, send full .git/shallow and let the client deal with it.

Smart HTTP is not affected by this patch. Shallow support on
smart-http comes later separately.

(*) A shallow commit is a commit that terminates the revision
    walker. It is usually put in .git/shallow in order to keep the
    revision walker from going out of bound because there is no
    guarantee that objects behind this commit is available.

5610b7c0c6 git fetch-pack: add --diag-url
The main purpose is to trace the URL parser called by git_connect() in

The main features of the parser can be listed as this:

- parse out host and path for URLs with a scheme (git:// file:// ssh://)
- parse host names embedded by [] correctly
- extract the port number, if present
- separate URLs like "file" (which are local)
  from URLs like "host:repo" which should use ssh

Add the new parameter "--diag-url" to "git fetch-pack", which prints
the value for protocol, host and path to stderr and exits.

62f162f8e7 rev-parse: be more careful with munging arguments
When rev-parse looks at whether an argument like "foo..bar" or
"foobar^@" is a difference or parent-shorthand, it internally
munges the arguments so that it can pass the individual rev
arguments to get_sha1(). However, we do not consistently un-munge
the result.

For cases where we do not match (e.g., "doesnotexist..HEAD"), we
would then want to try to treat the argument as a filename.
try_difference gets() this right, and always unmunges in this case.
However, try_parent_shorthand() never unmunges, leading to incorrect
error messages, or even incorrect results:

  $ git rev-parse foobar^@
  foobar
  fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
  Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
  'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

  $ >foobar
  $ git rev-parse foobar^@
  foobar

For cases where we do match, neither function unmunges. This does
not currently matter, since we are done with the argument. However,
a future patch will do further processing, and this prepares for
it. In addition, it's simply a confusing interface for some cases to
modify the const argument, and others not to.

1418567381 rev-parse: correctly diagnose revision errors before "--"
Rev-parse understands that a "--" may separate revisions and
filenames, and that anything after the "--" is taken as-is.
However, it does not understand that anything before the
token must be a revision (which is the usual rule
implemented by the setup_revisions parser).

Since rev-parse prefers revisions to files when parsing
before the "--", we end up with the correct result (if such
an argument is a revision, we parse it as one, and if it is
not, it is an error either way).  However, we misdiagnose
the errors:

  $ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null
  fatal: ambiguous argument 'foobar': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
  Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
  'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

  $ >foobar
  $ git rev-parse foobar -- >/dev/null
  fatal: bad flag '--' used after filename

In both cases, we should know that the real error is that
"foobar" is meant to be a revision, but could not be
resolved.

1a72cfd7fa commit -v: strip diffs and submodule shortlogs from the commit message
When using the '-v' option of "git commit" the diff added to the commit
message temporarily for editing is stripped off after the user exited the
editor by searching for "\ndiff --git " and truncating the commmit message
there if it is found.

But this approach has two problems:

- when the commit message itself contains a line starting with
  "diff --git" it will be truncated there prematurely; and

- when the "diff.submodule" setting is set to "log", the diff may
  start with "Submodule <hash1>..<hash2>", which will be left in
  the commit message while it shouldn't.

Fix that by introducing a special scissor separator line starting with the
comment character ('#' or the core.commentChar config if set) followed by
two lines describing what it is for. The scissor line - which will not be
translated - is used to reliably detect the start of the diff so it can be
chopped off from the commit message, no matter what the user enters there.

Turn a known test failure fixed by this change into a successful test;
also add one for a diff starting with a submodule log and another one for
proper handling of the comment char.

3fb5aead29 builtin/remote: remove postfixcmp() and use suffixcmp() instead
Commit 8cc5b290 (git merge -X<option>, 25 Nov 2009) introduced
suffixcmp() with nearly the same implementation as postfixcmp()
that already existed since commit 211c8968 (Make git-remote a
builtin, 29 Feb 2008).

The only difference between the two implementations is that,
when the string is smaller than the suffix, one implementation
returns 1 while the other one returns -1.

But, as postfixcmp() is only used to compare for equality, the
distinction does not matter and does not affect the correctness of
this patch.

As postfixcmp() has always been static in builtin/remote.c
and is used nowhere else, it makes more sense to remove it
and use suffixcmp() instead in builtin/remote.c, rather than
to remove suffixcmp().

fc9261ca61 push: also use "upstream" mapping when pushing a single ref
When the user is using the 'upstream' mode, these commands:

    $ git push
    $ git push origin

would find the 'upstream' branch for the current branch, and then
push the current branch to update it.  However, pushing a single
branch explicitly, i.e.

    $ git push origin $(git symbolic-ref --short HEAD)

would not go through the same ref mapping process, and ends up
updating the branch at 'origin' of the same name, which may not
necessarily be the upstream of the branch being pushed.

In the spirit similar to the previous one, map a colon-less refspec
using the upstream mapping logic.

ca02465b41 push: use remote.$name.push as a refmap
Since f2690487 (fetch: opportunistically update tracking refs,
2013-05-11), we stopped taking a non-storing refspec given on the
command line of "git fetch" literally, and instead started mapping
it via remote.$name.fetch refspecs.  This allows

    $ git fetch origin master

from the 'origin' repository, which is configured with

    [remote "origin"]
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

to update refs/remotes/origin/master with the result, as if the
command line were

    $ git fetch origin +master:refs/remotes/origin/master

to reduce surprises and improve usability.  Before that change, a
refspec on the command line without a colon was only to fetch the
history and leave the result in FETCH_HEAD, without updating the
remote-tracking branches.

When you are simulating a fetch from you by your mothership with a
push by you into your mothership, instead of having:

    [remote "satellite"]
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/*

on the mothership repository and running:

    mothership$ git fetch satellite

you would have:

    [remote "mothership"]
        push = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/satellite/*

on your satellite machine, and run:

    satellite$ git push mothership

Because we so far did not make the corresponding change to the push
side, this command:

    satellite$ git push mothership master

does _not_ allow you on the satellite to only push 'master' out but
still to the usual destination (i.e. refs/remotes/satellite/master).

Implement the logic to map an unqualified refspec given on the
command line via the remote.$name.push refspec.  This will bring a
bit more symmetry between "fetch" and "push".

0838bf47b3 fetch --prune: prune only based on explicit refspecs
The old behavior of "fetch --prune" was to prune whatever was being
fetched.  In particular, "fetch --prune --tags" caused tags not only
to be fetched, but also to be pruned.  This is inappropriate because
there is only one tags namespace that is shared among the local
repository and all remotes.  Therefore, if the user defines a local
tag and then runs "git fetch --prune --tags", then the local tag is
deleted.  Moreover, "--prune" and "--tags" can also be configured via
fetch.prune / remote.<name>.prune and remote.<name>.tagopt, making it
even less obvious that an invocation of "git fetch" could result in
tag lossage.

Since the command "git remote update" invokes "git fetch", it had the
same problem.

The command "git remote prune", on the other hand, disregarded the
setting of remote.<name>.tagopt, and so its behavior was inconsistent
with that of the other commands.

So the old behavior made it too easy to lose tags.  To fix this
problem, change "fetch --prune" to prune references based only on
refspecs specified explicitly by the user, either on the command line
or via remote.<name>.fetch.  Thus, tags are no longer made subject to
pruning by the --tags option or the remote.<name>.tagopt setting.

However, tags *are* still subject to pruning if they are fetched as
part of a refspec, and that is good.  For example:

* On the command line,

      git fetch --prune 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'

  causes tags, and only tags, to be fetched and pruned, and is
  therefore a simple way for the user to get the equivalent of the old
  behavior of "--prune --tag".

* For a remote that was configured with the "--mirror" option, the
  configuration is set to include

      [remote "name"]
              fetch = +refs/*:refs/*

  , which causes tags to be subject to pruning along with all other
  references.  This is the behavior that will typically be desired for
  a mirror.

c5a84e92a2 fetch --tags: fetch tags *in addition to* other stuff
Previously, fetch's "--tags" option was considered equivalent to
specifying the refspec "refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*" on the command line;
in particular, it caused the remote.<name>.refspec configuration to be
ignored.

But it is not very useful to fetch tags without also fetching other
references, whereas it *is* quite useful to be able to fetch tags *in
addition to* other references.  So change the semantics of this option
to do the latter.

If a user wants to fetch *only* tags, then it is still possible to
specifying an explicit refspec:

    git fetch <remote> 'refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*'

Please note that the documentation prior to 1.8.0.3 was ambiguous
about this aspect of "fetch --tags" behavior.  Commit

    f0cb2f137c 2012-12-14 fetch --tags: clarify documentation

made the documentation match the old behavior.  This commit changes
the documentation to match the new behavior.

0281c930f1 fetch: only opportunistically update references based on command line
The old code processed (tags == TAGS_SET) before adding the entries
used to opportunistically update references mentioned on the command
line.  The result was that all tags were also considered candidates
for opportunistic updating.

This is harmless for two reasons: (a) because it would only add
entries if there is a configured refspec that covers tags *and* both
--tags and another refspec appear on the command-line; (b) because any
extra entries would be deleted later by the call to
ref_remove_duplicates() anyway.

But, to avoid extra work and extra memory usage, and to make the
implementation better match the intention, change the algorithm
slightly: compute the opportunistic refspecs based only on the
command-line arguments, storing the results into a separate temporary
list.  Then add the tags (which have to come earlier in the list so
that they are not de-duped in favor of an opportunistic entry).  Then
concatenate the temporary list onto the main list.

This change will also make later changes easier.

b74cf64803 for-each-ref: avoid loading objects to print %(objectname)
If you ask for-each-ref to print each ref and its object,
like:

  git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname) %(refname)'

this should involve little more work than looking at the ref
files (and packed-refs) themselves. However, for-each-ref
will actually load each object from disk just to print its
sha1. For most repositories, this isn't a big deal, but it
can be noticeable if you have a large number of refs to
print. Here are best-of-five timings for the command above
on a repo with ~10K refs:

  [before]
  real    0m0.112s
  user    0m0.092s
  sys     0m0.016s

  [after]
  real    0m0.014s
  user    0m0.012s
  sys     0m0.000s

This patch checks for %(objectname) and %(objectname:short)
before we actually parse the object (and the rest of the
code is smart enough to avoid parsing if we have filled all
of our placeholders).

Note that we can't simply move the objectname parsing code
into the early loop. If the "deref" form %(*objectname) is
used, then we do need to parse the object in order to peel
the tag. So instead of moving the code, we factor it out
into a separate function that can be called for both cases.

While we're at it, we add some basic tests for the
dereferenced placeholders, which were not tested at all
before. This helps ensure we didn't regress that case.

d96855ff51 merge-base: teach "--fork-point" mode
The "git pull --rebase" command computes the fork point of the
branch being rebased using the reflog entries of the "base" branch
(typically a remote-tracking branch) the branch's work was based on,
in order to cope with the case in which the "base" branch has been
rewound and rebuilt.  For example, if the history looked like this:

                     o---B1
                    /
    ---o---o---B2--o---o---o---Base
            \
             B3
              \
               Derived

where the current tip of the "base" branch is at Base, but earlier
fetch observed that its tip used to be B3 and then B2 and then B1
before getting to the current commit, and the branch being rebased
on top of the latest "base" is based on commit B3, it tries to find
B3 by going through the output of "git rev-list --reflog base" (i.e.
Base, B1, B2, B3) until it finds a commit that is an ancestor of the
current tip "Derived".

Internally, we have get_merge_bases_many() that can compute this
with one-go.  We would want a merge-base between Derived and a
fictitious merge commit that would result by merging all the
historical tips of "base".  When such a commit exist, we should get
a single result, which exactly match one of the reflog entries of
"base".

Teach "git merge-base" a new mode, "--fork-point", to compute
exactly that.

4a2d5ae262 pathspec: stop --*-pathspecs impact on internal parse_pathspec() uses
Normally parse_pathspec() is used on command line arguments where it
can do fancy thing like parsing magic on each argument or adding magic
for all pathspecs based on --*-pathspecs options.

There's another use of parse_pathspec(), where pathspec is needed, but
the input is known to be pure paths. In this case we usually don't
want --*-pathspecs to interfere. And we definitely do not want to
parse magic in these paths, regardless of --literal-pathspecs.

Add new flag PATHSPEC_LITERAL_PATH for this purpose. When it's set,
--*-pathspecs are ignored, no magic is parsed. And if the caller
allows PATHSPEC_LITERAL (i.e. the next calls can take literal magic),
then PATHSPEC_LITERAL will be set.

This fixes cases where git chokes when GIT_*_PATHSPECS are set because
parse_pathspec() indicates it won't take any magic. But
GIT_*_PATHSPECS add them anyway. These are

   export GIT_LITERAL_PATHSPECS=1
   git blame -- something
   git log --follow something
   git log --merge

"git ls-files --with-tree=path" (aka parse_pathspec() in
overlay_tree_on_cache()) is safe because the input is empty, and
producing one pathspec due to PATHSPEC_PREFER_CWD does not take any
magic into account.

b3e9ce1332 reset: pass real rev name to add--interactive
The add--interactive --patch mode adjusts the UI based on
whether we are pulling changes from HEAD or elsewhere (in
the former case it asks to unstage the reverse hunk, rather
than apply the forward hunk).

Commit 166ec2e taught reset to work on an unborn branch, but
in doing so, switched to always providing add--interactive
with the sha1 rather than the symbolic name. This meant we
always used the "apply" interface, even for "git reset -p
HEAD".

We can fix this by passing the symbolic name to
add--interactive.  Since it understands unborn branches
these days, we do not even have to cover this special case
ourselves; we can simply pass HEAD.

The tests in t7105 now check that the right interface is
used in each circumstance (and notice the regression from
166ec2e we are fixing). The test in t7106 checks that we
get this right for the unborn case, too (not a regression,
since it didn't work at all before, but a nice improvement).

3c62183929 checkout: do not die when leaving broken detached HEAD
If we move away from a detached HEAD that has broken or
corrupted commits, we might die in two places:

  1. Printing the "old HEAD was..." message.

  2. Printing the list of orphaned commits.

In both cases, we ignore the return value of parse_commit
and feed the resulting commit to the pretty-print machinery,
which will die() upon failing to read the commit object
itself.

Since both cases are ancillary to the real operation being
performed, let's be more robust and keep going. This lets
users more easily checkout away from broken history.
