Jeff King 3adf9fdecf configure.ac: loosen FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES test program
We added an FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES Makefile knob long ago
in cba22528f (Add compat/fopen.c which returns NULL on
attempt to open directory, 2008-02-08) to handle systems
where reading from a directory returned garbage. This works
by catching the problem at the fopen() stage and returning
NULL.

More recently, we found that there is a class of systems
(including Linux) where fopen() succeeds but fread() fails.
Since the solution is the same (having fopen return NULL),
they use the same Makefile knob as of e2d90fd1c
(config.mak.uname: set FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES for Linux and
FreeBSD, 2017-05-03).

This works fine except for one thing: the autoconf test in
configure.ac to set FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES actually checks
whether fread succeeds. Which means that on Linux systems,
the knob isn't set (and we even override the config.mak.uname
default). t1308 catches the failure.

We can fix this by tweaking the autoconf test to cover both
cases. In theory we might care about the distinction between
the traditional "fread reads directories" case and the new
"fopen opens directories". But since our solution catches
the problem at the fopen stage either way, we don't actually
need to know the difference. The "fopen" case is a superset.

This does mean the FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES name is slightly
misleading. Probably FOPEN_OPENS_DIRECTORIES would be more
accurate. But it would be disruptive to simply change the
name (people's existing build configs would fail), and it's
not worth the complexity of handling both. Let's just add a
comment in the knob description.

Git - fast, scalable, distributed revision control system

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.

The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.

The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker" and the name as (depending on your mood):

  • random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
  • stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
  • "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
  • "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
