It can be useful to split your ~/.gitconfig across multiple
files. For example, you might have a "main" file which is
used on many machines, but a small set of per-machine
tweaks. Or you may want to make some of your config public
(e.g., clever aliases) while keeping other data back (e.g.,
your name or other identifying information). Or you may want
to include a number of config options in some subset of your
repos without copying and pasting (e.g., you want to
reference them from the .git/config of participating repos).
This patch introduces an include directive for config files.
It looks like:
[include]
path = /path/to/file
This is syntactically backwards-compatible with existing git
config parsers (i.e., they will see it as another config
entry and ignore it unless you are looking up include.path).
The implementation provides a "git_config_include" callback
which wraps regular config callbacks. Callers can pass it to
git_config_from_file, and it will transparently follow any
include directives, passing all of the discovered options to
the real callback.
Include directives are turned on automatically for "regular"
git config parsing. This includes calls to git_config, as
well as calls to the "git config" program that do not
specify a single file (e.g., using "-f", "--global", etc).
They are not turned on in other cases, including:
1. Parsing of other config-like files, like .gitmodules.
There isn't a real need, and I'd rather be conservative
and avoid unnecessary incompatibility or confusion.
2. Reading single files via "git config". This is for two
reasons:
a. backwards compatibility with scripts looking at
config-like files.
b. inspection of a specific file probably means you
care about just what's in that file, not a general
lookup for "do we have this value anywhere at
all". If that is not the case, the caller can
always specify "--includes".
3. Writing files via "git config"; we want to treat
include.* variables as literal items to be copied (or
modified), and not expand them. So "git config
--unset-all foo.bar" would operate _only_ on
.git/config, not any of its included files (just as it
also does not operate on ~/.gitconfig).

The git-config command sometimes operates on the default set
of config files (either reading from all, or writing to repo
config), and sometimes operates on a specific file. In the
latter case, we set the magic global config_exclusive_filename,
and the code in config.c does the right thing.
Instead, let's have git-config use the "advanced" variants
of config.c's functions which let it specify an individual
filename (or NULL for the default). This makes the code a
lot more obvious, and fixes two small bugs:
1. A relative path specified by GIT_CONFIG=foo will look
in the wrong directory if we have to chdir as part of
repository setup. We already handle this properly for
"git config -f foo", but the GIT_CONFIG lookup used
config_exclusive_filename directly. By dropping to a
single magic variable, the GIT_CONFIG case now just
works.
2. Calling "git config -f foo --edit" would not respect
core.editor. This is because just before editing, we
called git_config, which would respect the
config_exclusive_filename setting, even though this
particular git_config call was not about looking in the
user's specified file, but rather about loading actual
git config, just as any other git program would.

"git tag -n" did not check the type of the object it is reading the top n
lines from. At least, avoid showing the beginning of trees and blobs when
dealing with lightweight tags that point at them.
As the payload of a tag and a commit look similar in that they both start
with a header block, which is skipped for the purpose of "-n" output,
followed by human readable text, allow the message of commit objects to be
shown just like the contents of tag objects. This avoids regression for
people who have been using "tag -n" to show the log messages of commits
that are pointed at by lightweight tags.

When the userdiff_config function was introduced in be58e70
(diff: unify external diff and funcname parsing code,
2008-10-05), it used a return value convention unlike any
other config callback. Like other callbacks, it used "-1" to
signal error. But it returned "1" to indicate that it found
something, and "0" otherwise; other callbacks simply
returned "0" to indicate that no error occurred.
This distinction was necessary at the time, because the
userdiff namespace overlapped slightly with the color
configuration namespace. So "diff.color.foo" could mean "the
'foo' slot of diff coloring" or "the 'foo' component of the
"color" userdiff driver". Because the color-parsing code
would die on an unknown color slot, we needed the userdiff
code to indicate that it had matched the variable, letting
us bypass the color-parsing code entirely.
Later, in 8b8e862 (ignore unknown color configuration,
2009-12-12), the color-parsing code learned to silently
ignore unknown slots. This means we no longer need to
protect userdiff-matched variables from reaching the
color-parsing code.
We can therefore change the userdiff_config calling
convention to a more normal one. This drops some code from
each caller, which is nice. But more importantly, it reduces
the cognitive load for readers who may wonder why
userdiff_config is unlike every other config callback.
There's no need to add a new test confirming that this
works; t4020 already contains a test that sets
diff.color.external.

fix push --quiet: add 'quiet' capability to receive-pack
server_supports(): parse feature list more carefully
It is very easy to mistype the branch name when editing its description,
e.g.
$ git checkout -b my-topic master
: work work work
: now we are at a good point to switch working something else
$ git checkout master
: ah, let's write it down before we forget what we were doing
$ git branch --edit-description my-tpoic
The command does not notice that branch 'my-tpoic' does not exist. It is
not lost (it becomes description of an unborn my-tpoic branch), but is not
very useful. So detect such a case and error out to reduce the grief
factor from this common mistake.
This incidentally also errors out --edit-description when the HEAD points
at an unborn branch (immediately after "init", or "checkout --orphan"),
because at that point, you do not even have any commit that is part of
your history and there is no point in describing how this particular
branch is different from the branch it forked off of, which is the useful
bit of information the branch description is designed to capture.
We may want to special case the unborn case later, but that is outside the
scope of this patch to prevent more common mistakes before 1.7.9 series
gains too much widespread use.

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.

When you specify a local repository on the command line of
clone, ls-remote, upload-pack, receive-pack, or upload-archive,
or in a request to git-daemon, we perform a little bit of
lookup magic, doing things like looking in working trees for
.git directories and appending ".git" for bare repos.
For clone, this magic happens in get_repo_path. For
everything else, it happens in enter_repo. In both cases,
there are some ambiguous or confusing cases that aren't
handled well, and there is one case that is not handled the
same by both methods.
This patch tries to provide (and test!) standard, sensible
lookup rules for both code paths. The intended changes are:
1. When looking up "foo", we have always preferred
a working tree "foo" (containing "foo/.git" over the
bare "foo.git". But we did not prefer a bare "foo" over
"foo.git". With this patch, we do so.
2. We would select directories that existed but didn't
actually look like git repositories. With this patch,
we make sure a selected directory looks like a git
repo. Not only is this more sensible in general, but it
will help anybody who is negatively affected by change
(1) negatively (e.g., if they had "foo.git" next to its
separate work tree "foo", and expect to keep finding
"foo.git" when they reference "foo").
3. The enter_repo code path would, given "foo", look for
"foo.git/.git" (i.e., do the ".git" append magic even
for a repo with working tree). The clone code path did
not; with this patch, they now behave the same.
In the unlikely case of a working tree overlaying a bare
repo (i.e., a ".git" directory _inside_ a bare repo), we
continue to treat it as a working tree (prefering the
"inner" .git over the bare repo). This is mainly because the
combination seems nonsensical, and I'd rather stick with
existing behavior on the off chance that somebody is relying
on it.

The low-level grep_source code will automatically load the
userdiff driver to see whether a file is binary. However,
when we are threaded, it will load the drivers in a
non-deterministic order, handling each one as its assigned
thread happens to be scheduled.
Meanwhile, the attribute lookup code (which underlies the
userdiff driver lookup) is optimized to handle paths in
sequential order (because they tend to share the same
gitattributes files). Multi-threading the lookups destroys
the locality and makes this optimization less effective.
We can fix this by pre-loading the userdiff driver in the
main thread, before we hand off the file to a worker thread.
My best-of-five for "git grep foo" on the linux-2.6
repository went from:
real 0m0.391s
user 0m1.708s
sys 0m0.584s
to:
real 0m0.360s
user 0m1.576s
sys 0m0.572s
Not a huge speedup, but it's quite easy to do. The only
trick is that we shouldn't perform this optimization if "-a"
was used, in which case we won't bother checking whether
the files are binary at all.

The grep_source interface (as opposed to grep_buffer) will
eventually gives us a richer interface for telling the
low-level grep code about our buffers. Eventually this will
lead to things like better binary-file handling. For now, it
lets us drop a lot of now-redundant code.
The conversion is mostly straight-forward. One thing to note
is that the memory ownership rules for "struct grep_source"
are different than the "struct work_item" found here (the
former will copy things like the filename, rather than
taking ownership). Therefore you will also see some slight

The multi-threaded git-grep code needs to serialize access
to the thread-unsafe read_sha1_file call. It does this with
a mutex that is local to builtin/grep.c.
Let's instead push this down into grep.c, where it can be
used by both builtin/grep.c and grep.c. This will let us

The low-level grep code traditionally didn't care about
threading, as it doesn't do any threading itself and didn't
call out to other non-thread-safe code. That changed with
0579f91 (grep: enable threading with -p and -W using lazy
attribute lookup, 2011-12-12), which pushed the lookup of
funcname attributes (which is not thread-safe) into the
low-level grep code.
As a result, the low-level code learned about a new global
"grep_attr_mutex" to serialize access to the attribute code.
A multi-threaded caller (e.g., builtin/grep.c) is expected
to initialize the mutex and set "use_threads" in the
grep_opt structure. The low-level code only uses the lock if
use_threads is set.
However, putting the use_threads flag into the grep_opt
struct is not the most logical place. Whether threading is
in use is not something that matters for each call to
grep_buffer, but is instead global to the whole program
(i.e., if any thread is doing multi-threaded grep, every
other thread, even if it thinks it is doing its own
single-threaded grep, would need to use the locking). In
practice, this distinction isn't a problem for us, because
the only user of multi-threaded grep is "git-grep", which
does nothing except call grep.
This patch turns the opt->use_threads flag into a global
flag. More important than the nit-picking semantic argument
above is that this means that the locking functions don't
need to actually have access to a grep_opt to know whether
to lock. Which in turn can make adding new locks simpler, as
we don't need to pass around a grep_opt.

"struct transport *" object is used on many different urls and one of
them attached remote transport, the following urls will be mistakenly
attached to the same transport. This fault is worked around by dad0b3d
(push: do not let configured foreign-vcs permanently clobbered -
2012-01-23)
To fix this, detect incomplete refs from transport_get_remote_refs()
by SHA-1. Incomplete ones must have null SHA-1 (*). Then revert
changes related to foreign_cvs field in 6f48d39 and dad0b3d.
A good thing from this change is that cloning smart http transport can
also be delayed. Earlier it falls into the same category "remote
transport, no delay".
(*) Theoretically if one of the remote refs happens to have null SHA-1,
it will trigger false alarm and the clone will not be delayed. But
that chance may be too small for us to pay attention to.

Recently, 6f48d39 (clone: delay cloning until after remote HEAD checking,
2012-01-16) tried to record if a remote helper needs to be called after
parsing the remote when transport_get() is called, by overwriting the
field meant to store the configured remote helper name in the remote
structure.
This is OK when a remote represents a single remote repository, but fails
miserably when pushing to locations with multiple URLs, like this:
$ cat .git/config
[remote "origin"]
url = https://code.google.com/p/git-htmldocs/
url = github.com:gitster/git-htmldocs.git
push = refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master
$ git push
The second url that is supposed to use the git-over-ssh transport
mistakenly use https:// and fails with:
error: Couldn't resolve host 'github.com:gitster' while accessing
github.com:gitster/git-htmldocs.git/info/refs
fatal: HTTP request failed
The right solution would probably be to dedicate a separate field to store
the detected external helper to be used, which is valid only during a
single use of transport until it is disconnected, instead of overwriting
foreign_vcs field, but in the meantime, this band-aid should suffice.

Traditionally, a cleanly resolved merge was committed by "git merge" using
the auto-generated merge commit log message without invoking the editor.
After 5 years of use in the field, it turns out that people perform too
many unjustified merges of the upstream history into their topic branches.
These merges are not just useless, but they are often not explained well,
and making the end result unreadable when it gets time for merging their
history back to their upstream.
Earlier we added the "--edit" option to the command, so that people can
edit the log message to explain and justify their merge commits. Let's
take it one step further and spawn the editor by default when we are in an
interactive session (i.e. the standard input and the standard output are
pointing at the same tty device).
There may be existing scripts that leave the standard input and the
standard output of the "git merge" connected to whatever environment the
scripts were started, and such invocation might trigger the above
"interactive session" heuristics. GIT_MERGE_AUTOEDIT environment variable
can be set to "no" at the beginning of such scripts to use the historical
behaviour while the script runs.
Note that this backward compatibility is meant only for scripts, and we
deliberately do *not* support "merge.edit = yes/no/auto" configuration
option to allow people to keep the historical behaviour.

In threaded mode, git-grep emits file breaks (enabled with context, -W
and --break) into the accumulation buffers even if they are not
required. The output collection thread then uses skip_first_line to
skip the first such line in the output, which would otherwise be at
the very top.
This is wrong when the user also specified -l/-L/-c, in which case
every line is relevant. While arguably giving these options together
doesn't make any sense, git-grep has always quietly accepted it. So
do not skip anything in these cases.

write_remote_refs() creates new packed refs from references obtained
from the remote repository, which is "out of thin air" as far as the
local repository is concerned. Previously it did this by creating
"extra" refs, then calling pack_refs() to bake them into the
packed-refs file. Instead, create packed refs (in the packed
reference cache) directly, then call pack_refs().
Aside from being more logical, this is another step towards removing
extra refs entirely.

Because a tag ref cannot be put to HEAD, HEAD will become detached.
This is consistent with "git checkout <tag>".
This is mostly useful in shallow clone, where it allows you to clone a
tag in addtion to branches.

It's possible that users make a typo in the branch name. Stop and let
users recheck. Falling back to remote's HEAD is not documented any
way.
Except when using remote helper, the pack has not been transferred at
this stage yet so we don't waste much bandwidth.

It does not make sense to look outside refs/heads for HEAD's target
(src_ref_prefix can be set to "refs/" if --mirror is used) because ref
code only allows symref in form refs/heads/...

This gives us an opportunity to abort the command during remote HEAD
check without wasting much bandwidth.
Cloning with remote-helper remains before the check because the remote
helper updates mapped_refs, which is necessary for remote ref checks.
foreign_vcs field is used to indicate the transport is handled by
remote helper.

The logic for the -b mode, where [PATCH] is dropped but [foo] is not,
silently ate all spaces after the ].
Fix this by keeping the next isspace() character, if there is any.
Being more thorough is pointless, as the later cleanup_space() call
will normalize any sequence of whitespace to a single ' '.

Revese the order of delta applying so that by the time a delta is
applied, its base is either non-delta or already inflated.
get_base_data() is still recursive, but because base's data is always
ready, the inner get_base_data() call never has any chance to call
itself again.
