ea640cc691 submodule: fix relative url parsing for scp-style origin
The function resolve_relative_url was not prepared to deal with an
scp-style origin 'user@host:path' in the case where 'path' is only a
single component.  Fix this by extending the logic that strips one
path component from the $remoteurl.

Also add tests for both styles of URLs.

69e7236c6d git submodule: Remove now obsolete tests before cloning a repo
Since 55892d23 "git clone" itself checks that the destination path is not
a file but an empty directory if it exists, so there is no need anymore
for module_clone() to check that too.

Two tests have been added to test the behavior of "git submodule add" when
path is a file or a directory (A subshell had to be added to the former
last test to stay in the right directory).

98dbe63dbc submodule: only preserve flags across recursive status/update invocations
Recursive invocations of submodule update/status preserve all arguments,
so executing

        git submodule update --recursive -- foo

attempts to recursively update a submodule named "foo".

Naturally, this fails as one cannot have an infinitely-deep stack of
submodules each containing a submodule named "foo". The desired behavior
is instead to update foo and then recursively update all submodules
inside of foo.

This commit accomplishes that by only saving the flags for use in the
recursive invocation.

a7eff1a87a submodule: preserve all arguments exactly when recursing
Shell variables only hold strings, not lists of parameters,
so $orig_args after

        orig_args="$@"

fails to remember where each parameter starts and ends, if
some include whitespace.  So

        git submodule update \
                --reference='/var/lib/common objects.git' \
                --recursive --init

becomes

        git submodule update --reference=/var/lib/common \
                objects.git --recursive --init

in the inner repositories.  Use "git rev-parse --sq-quote" to
save parameters in quoted form ready for evaluation by the
shell, avoiding this problem.

d27b876b28 git submodule add: Require the new --force option to add ignored paths
To make the behavior of "git submodule add" more consistent with "git add"
ignored submodule paths should not be silently added when they match an
entry in a .gitignore file. To be able to override that default behavior
in the same way as we can do that for "git add", the new option "--force"
is introduced.

31991b0260 git submodule: add submodules with git add -f <path>
Change `git submodule add' to add the new submodule <path> with `git
add --force'.

I keep my /etc in .git with a .gitignore that contains just
"*". I.e. `git status' will ignore everything that isn't in the tree
already. When I do:

    git submodule add <url> hlagh

git-submodule will get as far as checking out the remote repository
into hlagh, but it'll die right afterwards when it fails to add the
new path:

    The following paths are ignored by one of your .gitignore files:
    hlagh
    Use -f if you really want to add them.
    fatal: no files added
    Failed to add submodule 'hlagh'

Currently there's no way to add a submodule in this situation other
than to remove the ignored path from the .gitignore while I'm at it.

That's silly, when you run `git submodule add' you're explicitly
saying that you want to add something *new* to the repository. Instead
it should just add the path with `git add --force'.

Initially I implemented this by adding new -f and --force options to
`git submodule add'. But if the --force option isn't supplied it'll
get as far as cloning `hlagh', but won't add it.

So the first thing the user has to do is to remove `hlagh' and then
try again with the --force option.

That sucks, it should just add the path to begin with. I can't think
of any usecase where you've gone through the trouble of typing out
`git submodule add ..', but wish to be overriden by a `gitignore'. The
submodule semantics should be more like `git init', not `git add'.

18076502cb git submodule: ignore dirty submodules for summary and status
The summary and status commands only care about submodule commits, so it is
rather pointless that they check for dirty work trees. This saves the time
needed to scan the submodules work tree. Even "git status" profits from these
savings when the status.submodulesummary config option is set, as this lead to
traversing the submodule work trees twice, once for status and once again for
the submodule summary. And if the submodule was just dirty, submodule summary
produced rather meaningless output anyway:

f030c96d86 git-submodule foreach: Add $toplevel variable
Add a $toplevel variable accessible to `git submodule foreach`, it
contains the absolute path of the top level directory (where
.gitmodules is).

This makes it possible to e.g. read data in .gitmodules from within
foreach commands. I'm using this to configure the branch names I want
to track for each submodule:

    git submodule foreach 'git checkout $(git config --file $toplevel/.gitmodules submodule.$name.branch) && git pull'

For a little history: This patch is borne out of my continuing fight
of trying to have Git track the branches of submodules, not just their
commits.

Obviously that's not how they work (they only track commits), but I'm
just interested in being able to do:

    git submodule foreach 'git pull'

Of course that won't work because the submodule is in a disconnected
head, so I first have to connect it, but connect it *to what*.

For a while I was happy with this because as fate had it, it just so
happened to do what I meant:

    git submodule foreach 'git checkout $(git describe --all --always) && git pull'

But then that broke down, if there's a tag and a branch the tag will
win out, and I can't git pull a branch:

    $ git branch -a
    * master
      remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
      remotes/origin/master
    $ git tag -l
    release-0.0.6
    $ git describe --always --all
    release-0.0.6

So I figured that I might as well start tracking the branches I want
in .gitmodules itself:

    [submodule "yaml-mode"]
        path = yaml-mode
        url = git://github.com/yoshiki/yaml-mode.git
        branch = master

So now I can just do (as stated above):

    git submodule foreach 'git checkout $(git config --file $toplevel/.gitmodules submodule.$name.branch) && git pull'

Maybe there's a less painful way to do *that* (I'd love to hear about
it). But regardless of that I think it's a good idea to be able to
know what the top-level is from git submodule foreach.

48bb30331d git-submodule.sh: properly initialize shell variables
git-submodule inherits variables from the environment it is started in,
expects the internal variables init= and recursive= to have an empty
value, but doesn't initialize them appropriately.  Thanks to the
selftests, this can be reproduced through

 init=1 make test
 recursive=1 make test

With this commit the variables are initialized, and the selftests
succeed even if these variables have some values in the environment.

b0e621adfd script with rev-list instead of log
Because log.decorate now shows decorations for --pretty=oneline,
we must explicitly turn it off when scripting. Otherwise,
users with log.decorate set will get cruft like:

  $ git stash
  Saved working directory and index state WIP on master:
    2c1f7f5 (HEAD, master) commit subject

Instead of adding --no-decorate to the log command line,
let's just use the rev-list plumbing interface instead,
which does the right thing.

git-submodule has a similar call. Since it just counts the
commit lines, nothing is broken, but let's switch it, too,
for the sake of consistency and cleanliness.

When "git status" collects changes for the index (usually relative to

not have an initial commit yet.  "git submodule summary" is about asking

and should do the same comparison to report all the added submodules,
instead of punting and being silent.

74ae14199d submodules: ensure clean environment when operating in a submodule
git-submodule used to take care of clearing GIT_DIR whenever it operated
on a submodule index or configuration, but forgot to unset GIT_WORK_TREE
or other repo-local variables. This would lead to failures e.g. when
GIT_WORK_TREE was set.

This only happened in very unusual contexts such as operating on the
main worktree from outside of it, but since "git-gui: set GIT_DIR and
GIT_WORK_TREE after setup" (a9fa11fe5b) such failures could also
be provoked by invoking an external tool such as "git submodule update"
from the Git Gui in a standard setup.

Solve by using the newly introduced clear_local_git_env() shell function
to ensure that all repo-local environment variables are unset.

3deea89c5f submodule summary: Don't barf when invoked in an empty repo
When invoking "git submodule summary" in an empty repo (which can be
indirectly done by setting status.submodulesummary = true), it currently
emits an error message (via "git diff-index") since HEAD points to an
unborn branch.

This patch adds handling of the HEAD-points-to-unborn-branch special case,
so that "git submodule summary" no longer emits this error message.

The patch also adds a test case that verifies the fix.

f17a5d3494 git status: Show uncommitted submodule changes too when enabled
When the configuration variable status.submodulesummary is not 0 or
false, "git status" shows the submodule summary of the staged submodule
commits. But it did not show the summary of those commits not yet
staged in the supermodule, making it hard to see what will not be
committed.

The output of "submodule summary --for-status" has been changed from
"# Modified submodules:" to "# Submodule changes to be committed:" for
the already staged changes. "# Submodules changed but not updated:" has
been added for changes that will not be committed. This is much clearer
and consistent with the output for regular files.

e1622bfcba Protect scripted Porcelains from GREP_OPTIONS insanity
If the user has exported the GREP_OPTIONS environment variable, the output
from "grep" and "egrep" in scripted Porcelains may be different from what
they expect.  For example, we may want to count number of matching lines,
by "grep" piped to "wc -l", and GREP_OPTIONS=-C3 will break such use.

The approach taken by this change to address this issue is to protect only
our own use of grep/egrep.  Because we do not unset it at the beginning of
our scripts, hook scripts run from the scripted Porcelains are exposed to
the same insanity this environment variable causes when grep/egrep is used
to implement logic (e.g. "grep | wc -l"), and it is entirely up to the
hook scripts to protect themselves.

On the other hand, applypatch-msg hook may want to show offending words in
the proposed commit log message using grep to the end user, and the user
might want to set GREP_OPTIONS=--color to paint the match more visibly.
The approach to protect only our own use without unsetting the environment
variable globally will allow this use case.

2e6a30ef8f submodule, repack: migrate to git-sh-setup's say()
Now that there is say() in git-sh-setup, these scripts don't need to use
their own. Migrate them over by setting GIT_QUIET and removing their
custom say() functions.

42b4917862 git-submodule: add support for --merge.
'git submodule update --merge' merges the commit referenced by the
superproject into your local branch, instead of checking it out on
a detached HEAD.

As evidenced by the addition of "git submodule update --rebase", it
is useful to provide alternatives to the default 'checkout' behaviour
of "git submodule update". One such alternative is, when updating a
submodule to a new commit, to merge that commit into the current
local branch in that submodule. This is useful in workflows where
you want to update your submodule from its upstream, but you cannot
use --rebase, because you have downstream people working on top of
your submodule branch, and you don't want to disrupt their work.

329484256e Rename submodule.<name>.rebase to submodule.<name>.update
The addition of "submodule.<name>.rebase" demonstrates the usefulness of
alternatives to the default behaviour of "git submodule update". However,
by naming the config variable "submodule.<name>.rebase", and making it a
boolean choice, we are artificially constraining future git versions that
may want to add _more_ alternatives than just "rebase".

Therefore, while "submodule.<name>.rebase" is not yet in a stable git
release, future-proof it, by changing it from

  submodule.<name>.rebase = true/false

to

  submodule.<name>.update = rebase/checkout

where "checkout" specifies the default behaviour of "git submodule update"
(checking out the new commit to a detached HEAD), and "rebase" specifies
the --rebase behaviour (where the current local branch in the submodule is
rebase onto the new commit). Thus .update == checkout is equivalent to
.rebase == false, and .update == rebase is equivalent to .rebase == true.
Finally, leaving .update unset is equivalent to leaving .rebase unset.

In future git versions, other alternatives to "git submodule update"
behaviour can be included by adding them to the list of allowable values
for the submodule.<name>.update variable.

ca2cedba70 git-submodule: add support for --rebase.
'git submodule update --rebase' rebases your local branch on top of what
would have been checked out to a detached HEAD otherwise.

In some cases, detaching the HEAD when updating a submodule complicates
the workflow to commit to this submodule (checkout master, rebase, then
commit).  For submodules that require frequent updates but infrequent
(if any) commits, a rebase can be executed directly by the git-submodule
command, ensuring that the submodules stay on their respective branches.

git-config key: submodule.$name.rebase (bool)

ea10b60c91 Work around ash "alternate value" expansion bug
Ash (used as /bin/sh on many distros) has a shell expansion bug
for the form ${var:+word word}.  The result is a single argument
"word word".  Work around by using ${var:+word} ${var:+word} or
equivalent.
