revert: Save data for continuing after conflict resolution
Ever since v1.7.2-rc1~4^2~7 (revert: allow cherry-picking more than
one commit, 2010-06-02), a single invocation of "git cherry-pick" or
"git revert" can perform picks of several individual commits. To
implement features like "--continue" to continue the whole operation,
we will need to store some information about the state and the plan at
the beginning. Introduce a ".git/sequencer/head" file to store this
state, and ".git/sequencer/todo" file to store the plan. The head
file contains the SHA-1 of the HEAD before the start of the operation,
and the todo file contains an instruction sheet whose format is
inspired by the format of the "rebase -i" instruction sheet. As a
result, a typical todo file looks like:
pick 8537f0e submodule add: test failure when url is not configured
pick 4d68932 submodule add: allow relative repository path
pick f22a17e submodule add: clean up duplicated code
pick 59a5775 make copy_ref globally available
Since SHA-1 hex is abbreviated using an find_unique_abbrev(), it is
unambiguous. This does not guarantee that there will be no ambiguity
when more objects are added to the repository.
These two files alone are not enough to implement a "--continue" that
remembers the command-line options specified; later patches in the
series save them too.
These new files are unrelated to the existing .git/CHERRY_PICK_HEAD,
which will still be useful while committing after a conflict
resolution.

revert: Don't create invalid replay_opts in parse_args
The "--ff" command-line option cannot be used with some other
command-line options. However, parse_args still parses these
incompatible options into a replay_opts structure for use by the rest
of the program. Although pick_commits, the current gatekeeper to the
cherry-pick machinery, checks the validity of the replay_opts
structure before before starting its operation, there will be multiple
entry points to the cherry-pick machinery in future. To futureproof
the code and catch these errors in one place, make sure that an
invalid replay_opts structure is not created by parse_args in the
first place. We still check the replay_opts structure for validity in
pick_commits, but this is an assert() now to emphasize that it's the
caller's responsibility to get it right.

revert: Separate cmdline parsing from functional code
Currently, revert_or_cherry_pick sets up a default git config, parses
command-line arguments, before preparing to pick commits. This makes
for a bad API as the central worry of callers is to assert whether or
not a conflict occured while cherry picking. The current API is like:
if (revert_or_cherry_pick(argc, argv, opts) < 0)
print "Something failed, we're not sure what"
Simplify and rename revert_or_cherry_pick to pick_commits so that it
only has the responsibility of setting up the revision walker and
picking commits in a loop. Transfer the remaining work to its
callers. Now, the API is simplified as:
if (parse_args(argc, argv, opts) < 0)
print "Can't parse arguments"
if (pick_commits(opts) < 0)
print "Error encountered in picking machinery"
Later in the series, pick_commits will also serve as the starting
point for continuing a cherry-pick or revert.

revert: Introduce struct to keep command-line options
The current code uses a set of file-scope static variables to tell the
cherry-pick/ revert machinery how to replay the changes, and
initializes them by parsing the command-line arguments. In later
steps in this series, we would like to introduce an API function that
calls into this machinery directly and have a way to tell it what to
do. Hence, introduce a structure to group these variables, so that
the API can take them as a single replay_options parameter. The only
exception is the variable "me" -- remove it since it not an
independent option, and can be inferred from the action.
Unfortunately, this patch introduces a minor regression. Parsing
strategy-option violates a C89 rule: Initializers cannot refer to
variables whose address is not known at compile time. Currently, this
rule is violated by some other parts of Git as well, and it is
possible to get GCC to report these instances using the "-std=c89
-pedantic" option.

Functions which act on commits currently rely on a file-scope static
variable to be set before they're called. Consequently, the API and
corresponding callsites are ugly and unclear. Remove this variable
and change their API to accept the commit to act on as additional
argument so that the callsites change from looking like
This change is also in line with our long-term goal of exposing some
of these functions through a public API.

The "-x" command-line option is used to record the name of the
original commits being picked in the commit message. The variable
corresponding to this option is named "no_replay" for historical
reasons; the name is especially confusing because the term "replay" is
used to describe what cherry-pick does (for example, in the
documentation of the "--mainline" option). So, give the variable
corresponding to the "-x" command-line option a better name:
"record_origin".

The only place get_encoding uses the global "commit" variable is when
writing an error message explaining that its lone argument was NULL.
Since the function's only caller ensures that a NULL argument isn't
passed, we can remove this check with two beneficial consequences:
1. Since the function doesn't use the global "commit" variable any
more, it won't need to change when we eliminate the global variable
later in the series.
2. Translators no longer need to localize an error message that will
never be shown.

The add_message_to_msg function has some dead code, an unclear API,
only one callsite. While it originally intended fill up an empty
commit message with the commit object name while picking, it really
doesn't do this -- a bug introduced in v1.5.1-rc1~65^2~2 (Make
git-revert & git-cherry-pick a builtin, 2007-03-01). Today, tests in
t3505-cherry-pick-empty.sh indicate that not filling up an empty
commit message is the desired behavior. Re-implement and inline the
function accordingly, with a beneficial side-effect: don't dereference
a NULL pointer when the commit doesn't have a delimeter after the
header.

tests: link shell libraries into valgrind directory
When we run tests under valgrind, we symlink anything
executable that starts with git-* or test-* into a special

However, shell libraries like git-sh-setup do not have the
executable bit marked, and did not get symlinked. This

fine thing to do when testing against a regular git build

gitweb: do not misparse nonnumeric content tag files that contain a digit
v1.7.6-rc0~27^2~4 (gitweb: Change the way "content tags" ('ctags') are
handled, 2011-04-29) tried to make gitweb's tag cloud feature more
intuitive for webmasters by checking whether the ctags/<label> under
a project's .git dir contains a number (representing the strength of
association to <label>) before treating it as one.
With that change, after putting '$feature{'ctags'}{'default'} = [1];'
in your $GITWEB_CONFIG, you could do
echo Linux >.git/ctags/linux
and gitweb would treat that as a request to tag the current repository
with the Linux tag, instead of the previous behavior of writing an
error page embedded in the projects list that triggers error messages
from Chromium and Firefox about malformed XML.
Unfortunately the pattern (\d+) used to match numbers is too loose,
and the "XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document"
error can still be experienced if you write "Linux-2.6" in place of
"Linux" in the example above. Fix it by tightening the pattern to

OS X 10.6.7. This is because I assumed \+ is part of BRE, which isn't
true on all platforms.
The easiest way to make this test pass is to just update expected
output, but that would make the test pointless. Its real purpose is to
check whether 'git grep -E -F -G' is different from 'git grep -E -G -F'.
To check that, let's change pattern to "a+b*c". This should return
different match for -G, -F and -E.
I also made two small tweaks to the tests. First, I added path "ab" to
all calls to future-proof tests. Second, I updated last two tests to
better show that 'git grep -P -E' is different from 'git grep -E -P'.

builtin/commit.c: set status_format _after_ option parsing
'git status' should use --porcelain output format when -z is given.
It was not doing so since the _effect_ of using -z, namely that
null_termination would be set, was being checked _before_ option parsing
was performed.
So, move the check so that it is performed after option parsing.

rebase: write a reflog entry when finishing
When we finish a rebase, our detached HEAD is at the final
result. We update the original branch ref with this result,
and then point the HEAD symbolic ref at the updated branch.
We write a reflog for the branch update, but not for the
update of HEAD.
Because we're already at the final result on the detached
HEAD, moving to the branch actually doesn't change our
commit sha1 at all. So in that sense, a reflog entry would
be pointless.
However, humans do read reflogs, and an entry saying "rebase
finished: returning to refs/heads/master" can be helpful in
understanding what is going on.

docs: make sure literal "->" isn't converted to arrow
Recent versions of asciidoc will treat "->" as a

Our usage falls into three categories:
1. Inside a code block. These can be left as-is.
2. Discussing literal output or code, but inside a

3. Using the arrow as a symbolic element, such as "use the

format-patch: preserve subject newlines with -k
In older versions of git, we used rfc822 header folding to
indicate that the original subject line had multiple lines
in it. But since a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header
lines, 2011-02-23), we now use header folding whenever there
is a long line.
This means that "git am" cannot trust header folding as a
sign from format-patch that newlines should be preserved.
Instead, format-patch needs to signal more explicitly that
the newlines are significant. This patch does so by
rfc2047-encoding the newlines in the subject line. No
changes are needed on the "git am" end; it already decodes
the newlines properly.

clean up calling conventions for pretty.c functions
We have a pretty_print_context representing the parameters
for a pretty-print session, but we did not use it uniformly.
As a result, functions kept growing more and more arguments.
Let's clean this up in a few ways:
1. All pretty-print pp_* functions now take a context.
This lets us reduce the number of arguments to these
functions, since we were just passing around the
context values separately.
2. The context argument now has a cmit_fmt field, which
was passed around separately. That's one less argument
per function.
3. The context argument always comes first, which makes
calling a little more uniform.
This drops lines from some callers, and adds lines in a few
places (because we need an extra line to set the context's
fmt field). Overall, we don't save many lines, but the lines
that are there are a lot simpler and more readable.

git-submodule.sh: separate parens by a space to avoid confusing some shells
Some shells interpret '(( ))' according to the rules for arithmetic

mailinfo: always clean up rfc822 header folding
Without the "-k" option, mailinfo will convert a folded
subject header like:
Subject: this is a
subject that doesn't

these newlines were significant and represented something
that the sending side would want us to preserve.
For messages created by format-patch, this assumption was
broken by a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines,
2011-02-23). For messages sent by arbitrary MUAs, this was
probably never a good assumption to make, as they may have
been folding subjects in accordance with rfc822's line
length recommendations all along.
This patch now joins folded lines with a single whitespace
character. This treats header folding purely as a syntactic
feature of the transport mechanism, not as something that
format-patch is trying to tell us about the original

t: test subject handling in format-patch / am pipeline
Commit a1f6baa (format-patch: wrap long header lines,
2011-02-23) changed format-patch's behavior with respect to
long header lines, but made no accompanying changes to the
receiving side. It was thought that "git am" would handle
these folded subjects fine, but there is a regression when
using "am -k".
Let's add a test documenting this. While we're at it, let's
give more complete test coverage to document what should be
happening in each case. We test three types of subjects:
a short one, one long enough to require wrapping, and a
multiline subject. For each, we test these three
combinations:
format-patch | am
format-patch -k | am
format-patch -k | am -k
We don't bother testing "format-patch | am -k", which is
nonsense (you will be adding in [PATCH] cruft to each
subject).
This reveals the regression above (long subjects have
linebreaks introduced via "format-patch -k | am -k"),
as well as an existing non-optimal behavior (multiline
subjects are not preserved using "-k").

read_in_full: always report errors
The read_in_full function repeatedly calls read() to fill a
buffer. If the first read() returns an error, we notify the
caller by returning the error. However, if we read some data
and then get an error on a subsequent read, we simply return
the amount of data that we did read, and the caller is
unaware of the error.
This makes the tradeoff that seeing the partial data is more
important than the fact that an error occurred. In practice,
this is generally not the case; we care more if an error
occurred, and should throw away any partial data.
I audited the current callers. In most cases, this will make
no difference at all, as they do:
if (read_in_full(fd, buf, size) != size)
error("short read");
However, it will help in a few cases:
1. In sha1_file.c:index_stream, we would fail to notice
errors in the incoming stream.
2. When reading symbolic refs in resolve_ref, we would
fail to notice errors and potentially use a truncated
ref name.
3. In various places, we will get much better error
messages. For example, callers of safe_read would
erroneously print "the remote end hung up unexpectedly"
instead of showing the read error.

remote: allow "-t" with fetch mirrors
Commit 13fc2c1 (remote: disallow some nonsensical option
combinations, 2011-03-30) made it impossible to use "remote
add -t foo --mirror". The argument was that specifying
specific branches is useless because:
1. Push mirrors do not want a refspec at all.
2. The point of fetch mirroring is to use a broad refspec
like "refs/*", but using "-t" overrides that.
Point (1) is valid; "-t" with push mirrors is useless. But
point (2) ignored another side effect of using --mirror: it
fetches the refs directly into the refs/ namespace as they
are found upstream, instead of placing them in a
separate-remote layout.
So 13fc2c1 was overly constrictive, and disallowed
reasonable specific-branch mirroring, like:
projects / thirdparty / git.git / log
