When git show -s is called for merge commit it prints extra newline
after any merge commit. This differs from output for commits with one
parent. Fix it by more thorough checking that diff output is disabled.
The code in question exists since commit 3969cf7db1. The additional
newline is really needed for cases when patch is requested, test
t4013-diff-various.sh contains cases which can demonstrate behavior when
the condition is restricted further.
Tests:
Added merge commit to 'set up a bit of history' case in t7007-show.sh to
cover the fix.
Existing tests are updated to demonstrate the new behaviour. Earlier,
the tests that used "git show -s --pretty=format:%s", even though
"--pretty=format:%s" calls for item separator semantics and does not ask
for the terminating newline after the last item, expected the output to
end with such a newline. They were relying on the buggy behaviour. Use
of "--format=%s", which is equivalent to "--pretty=tformat:%s" that asks
for a terminating newline after each item, is a more realistic way to
use the command.
In the test 'merge log messages' the expected data is changed, because
it was explicitly listing the extra newline. Also the msg.nologff and
msg.nolognoff expected files are replaced by one msg.nolog, because they
were diffing because of the bug, and now there should be no difference.

These three options mean "favor fast-forwarding when possible,
without creating an unnecessary merge", "never fast-forward and
always create a merge commit even when the commit being merged is a
strict descendant", and "we do not want to create any merge commit;
update only when the merged commit is a strict descendant".
They are "pick one out of these three possibilities" options, and
correspond to "merge.ff" configuration that is tri-state (yes, no
and only).
However, the implementation did not follow the usual convention for
the command line options (later one wins, and command line overrides
what is in the configuration).
Fix this by consolidating two variables (fast_forward_only and
allow_fast_forward) used in the implementation into one enum that
can take one of the three possible values.

Instead of using construct such as:
test_when_finished "git config --unset <key>"
git config <key> <value>
uses
test_config <key> <value>
The latter takes care of removing <key> at the end of the test.
Tests are modified to assume default configuration at entry,
and to reset the modified configuration variables at the end.
Test 'merge log message' was relying on the presence of option `--no-ff`
in the configuration. With the option, git show -s --pretty=format:%b HEAD
produces an empty line and without the option, it produces an empty file.
The test is modified to check with and without `--no-ff` option.

Starting at release v1.7.9, if you ask to merge a signed tag, "git merge"
always creates a merge commit, even when the tag points at a commit that
happens to be a descendant of your current commit.
Unfortunately, this interacts rather badly for people who use --ff-only to
make sure that their branch is free of local developments. It used to be
possible to say:
$ git checkout -b frotz v1.7.9~30
$ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9
and expect that the resulting tip of frotz branch matches v1.7.9^0 (aka
the commit tagged as v1.7.9), but this fails with the updated Git with:
fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting.
because a merge that merges v1.7.9 tag to v1.7.9~30 cannot be created by
fast forwarding.
We could teach users that now they have to do
$ git merge --ff-only v1.7.9^0
but it is far more pleasant for users if we DWIMmed this ourselves.
When an integrator pulls in a topic from a lieutenant via a signed tag,
even when the work done by the lieutenant happens to fast-forward, the
integrator wants to have a merge record, so the integrator will not be
asking for --ff-only when running "git pull" in such a case. Therefore,
this change should not regress the support for the use case v1.7.9 wanted
to add.

Implemented internally instead of as "git merge --no-commit && git commit"
so that "merge --edit" is otherwise consistent (hooks, etc) with "merge".
Note: the edit message does not include the status information that one
gets with "commit --status" and it is cleaned up after editing like one
gets with "commit --cleanup=default". A later patch could add the status
information if desired.
Note: previously we were not calling stripspace() after running the
prepare-commit-msg hook. Now we are, stripping comments and
leading/trailing whitespace lines if --edit is given, otherwise only
stripping leading/trailing whitespace lines if not given --edit.

Currently verify_parents only makes sure that the earlier parents of
HEAD match the commits given, and does not care if there are more
parents. This makes it harder than one would like to check that, for
example, parent reduction works correctly when making an octopus.
Fix it by checking that HEAD^(n+1) is not a valid commit name.

The parsing of the additional command line parameters supplied to
the branch.<name>.mergeoptions configuration variable was implemented
at the wrong stage. If any merge-related variable came after we read
branch.<name>.mergeoptions, the earlier value was overwritten.
We should first read all the merge.* configuration, override them by
reading from branch.<name>.mergeoptions and then finally read from
the command line.
This patch should fix it, even though I now strongly suspect that
branch.<name>.mergeoptions that gives a single command line that
needs to be parsed was likely to be an ill-conceived idea to begin
with. Sigh...

Most of git's tests write files and define shell functions and
variables that will last throughout a test script at the top of
the script, before all test assertions:
. ./test-lib.sh
VAR='some value'
export VAR
>empty
fn () {
do something
}
test_expect_success 'setup' '
... nontrivial commands go here ...
'
Two scripts use a different style with this kind of trivial code
enclosed by a test assertion; fix them. The usual style is easier to
read since there is less indentation to keep track of and no need to
worry about nested quotes; and on the other hand, because the commands
in question are trivial, it should not make the test suite any worse
at catching future bugs in git.
While at it, make some other small tweaks:
- spell function definitions with a space before () for consistency
with other scripts;
- use the self-contained command "git mktree </dev/null" in
preference to "git write-tree" which looks at the index when
writing an empty tree.

Probably as a development aid, this test script runs gitk --all
to allow the driver to inspect history between tests when run
with --debug. As a result, running all tests with --debug
requires closing a long series of gitk displays, one at a time.
Use git log --graph --oneline instead. This way, the history is
available for viewing with "git show" but the test script finishes
without interaction.
Longer term, it would be nice to have an option to run a
user-specified command between tests. This patch does not do
that.

In many places in test suite we have "sleep"s that do not have to be
there.
- I do not simply see the point of the one in t3500. It may be making
sure that the timestamp order of commits generated during the test is
stable, in which case test_tick is the right ingredient to use without
wasting tester's time.
- The one in t4011 is to make sure that the plumbing diff-index notices
the stat-dirtyness of a removed then identically recreated symlink.
Keeping the old symlink around to make sure that a newly created
symlink gets different ino would be sufficient for that purpose.
- The one in t7600 is to make sure that "git merge" does not get confused
by stat-dirty "file" in the working tree. Again, keeping the old file
around and creating an identical copy to ensure a different ino would
be sufficient for that purpose.
The "racy git" tests in t0010 are inherently about mtime between the index
itself and index entries. The "sleep" in that test must stay as they are.

For convenience in scripts and aliases, add the option

despite the name).
Disallow combining --ff-only and --no-ff, since they
flatly contradict each other.
Allow all other options to be combined with --ff-only
(i.e. do not add any code to handle them specially),
including the following options:
* --strategy (one or more): As long as the chosen merge
strategy results in up-to-date or fast-forward, the
command will succeed.
* --squash: I cannot imagine why anyone would want to
squash commits only if fast-forward is possible, but I
also see no reason why it should not be allowed.
* --message: The message will always be ignored, but I see
no need to explicitly disallow providing a redundant message.

Since commit 6bb6b034 (builtin-commit: use commit_tree(), 2008-09-10),
builtin-commit performs a reduce_heads() unconditionally. However,
it's not always needed, and in some cases even harmful.
reduce_heads() is not needed for the initial commit or for an
"ordinary" commit, because they don't have any or have only one
parent, respectively.
reduce_heads() must be avoided when 'git commit' is run after a 'git
merge --no-ff --no-commit', otherwise it will turn the
non-fast-forward merge into fast-forward. For the same reason,
reduce_heads() must be avoided when amending such a merge commit.
To resolve this issue, 'git merge' will write info about whether
fast-forward is allowed or not to $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MODE. Based on this
info, 'git commit' will only perform reduce_heads() when it's
committing a merge and fast-forward is enabled.
Also add test cases to ensure that non-fast-forward merges are
committed and amended properly.

The "trivial merge" codepath wants to optimize itself by making an
internal call to the read-tree machinery, but it does not read the index
before doing so, and the codepath is never exercised. Incidentally, this
failure to read the index upfront means that the safety to refuse doing
anything when the index is unmerged does not kick in, either.
These two problem are fixed by using read_cache_unmerged() that does read
the index before checking if it is unmerged at the beginning of
cmd_merge().
The primary logic of the merge, however, assumes that the process never
reads the index in-core, and the call to write_cache_as_tree() it makes
from write_tree_trivial() will always read from the on-disk index that is
prepared the strategy back-ends. This assumption is now broken by the
above fix. To fix this issue, we now call discard_cache() before calling
write_tree_trivial() when it wants to write the on-disk index as a tree.
When multiple strategies are tried, their results are evaluated by reading
the resulting index and inspecting it. The codepath needs to make a call
to read_cache() for each successful strategy, and for that to work, they
need to discard_cache() the one read by the previous round.
Also the "trivial merge" forgot that the current commit is one of the
parents of the resulting commit.
