In some shells, such as bash and zsh, it's possible to use a command
substitution to provide the output of a command as a file argument to
another process, like so:
diff -u <(printf "a\nb\n") <(printf "a\nc\n")
However, this syntax does not produce useful results with "git diff
--no-index". On macOS, the arguments to the command are named pipes
under /dev/fd, and git diff doesn't know how to handle a named pipe. On
Linux, the arguments are symlinks to pipes, so git diff "helpfully"
diffs these symlinks, comparing their targets like "pipe:[1234]" and
"pipe:[5678]".
To address this "diff --no-index" is changed so that if a path given on
the commandline is a named pipe or a symbolic link that resolves to a
named pipe then we read the data to diff from that pipe. This is
implemented by generalizing the code that already exists to handle
reading from stdin when the user passes the path "-".
If the user tries to compare a named pipe to a directory then we die as
we do when trying to compare stdin to a directory.
As process substitution is not support by POSIX this change is tested by
using a pipe and a symbolic link to a pipe.

If there is an error when reading from stdin then "diff --no-index"
prints an error message but continues to try and diff a file named "-"
resulting in an error message that looks like
error: error while reading from stdin: Invalid argument
fatal: stat '-': No such file or directory
assuming that no file named "-" exists. If such a file exists it prints
the first error message and generates the diff from that file which is
not what the user wanted. Instead just die() straight away if we cannot
read from stdin.

diff --no-index: refuse to compare stdin to a directory
When the user runs
git diff --no-index file directory
we follow the behavior of POSIX diff and rewrite the arguments as
git diff --no-index file directory/file
Doing that when "file" is "-" (which means "read from stdin") does not
make sense so we should error out if the user asks us to compare "-" to
a directory. This matches the behavior of GNU diff and diff on *BSD.

commit: pass --no-divider to interpret-trailers
When git-commit sees any "--trailer" options, it passes the
COMMIT_EDITMSG file through git-interpret-trailers. But it does so
without passing --no-divider, which means that interpret-trailers will
look for a "---" divider to signal the end of the commit message.
That behavior doesn't make any sense in this context; we know we have a
complete and solitary commit message, not something we have to further
parse. And as a result, we'll do the wrong thing if the commit message
contains a "---" marker (which otherwise is not syntactically
significant), inserting any new trailers at the wrong spot.
We can fix this by passing --no-divider. This is the exact situation for
which it was added in 1688c9a489 (interpret-trailers: allow suppressing
"---" divider, 2018-08-22). As noted in the message for that commit, it
just adds the mechanism, and further patches were needed to trigger it
from various callers. We did that back then in a few spots, like ffce7f590f (sequencer: ignore "---" divider when parsing trailers,

branch: fix a leak in setup_tracking
The commit d3115660b4 (branch: add flags and config to inherit tracking,
2021-12-20) replaced in "struct tracking", the member "char *src" by a
new "struct string_list *srcs".
This caused a modification in find_tracked_branch(). The string
returned by remote_find_tracking(), previously assigned to "src", is now
added to the string_list "srcs".
That string_list is initialized with STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, which means
that what is added is not the given string, but a duplicate. Therefore,
the string returned by remote_find_tracking() is leaked.
The leak can be reviewed with:

$ git branch --track bar local/foo

remote: fix a leak in query_matches_negative_refspec
In c0192df630 (refspec: add support for negative refspecs, 2020-09-30)
query_matches_negative_refspec() was introduced.
The function was implemented as a two-loop process, where the former
loop accumulates and the latter evaluates. To accumulate, a string_list
is used.
Within the first loop, there are three cases where a string is added to
the string_list. Two of them add strings that do not need to be
freed. But in the third case, the string added is returned by
match_name_with_pattern(), which needs to be freed.
The string_list is initialized with STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP, i.e. when
cleared, the strings added are not freed. Therefore, the string
returned by match_name_with_pattern() is not freed, so we have a leak.

string_list had been initialized with STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, i.e. the

pack-bitmap.c: gracefully degrade on failure to load MIDX'd pack
When opening a MIDX bitmap, we the pack-bitmap machinery eagerly calls
`prepare_midx_pack()` on each of the packs contained in the MIDX. This
is done in order to populate the array of `struct packed_git *`s held by
the MIDX, which we need later on in `load_reverse_index()`, since it
calls `load_pack_revindex()` on each of the MIDX'd packs, and requires
that the caller provide a pointer to a `struct packed_git`.
When opening one of these packs fails, the pack-bitmap code will `die()`
indicating that it can't open one of the packs in the MIDX. This
indicates that the MIDX is somehow broken with respect to the current
state of the repository. When this is the case, we indeed cannot make
use of the MIDX bitmap to speed up reachability traversals.
However, it does not mean that we can't perform reachability traversals
at all. In other failure modes, that same function calls `warning()` and
then returns -1, indicating to its caller (`open_bitmap()`) that we
should either look for a pack bitmap if one is available, or perform
normal object traversal without using bitmaps at all.
There is no reason why this case should cause us to die. If we instead
continued (by jumping to `cleanup` as this patch does) and avoid using
bitmaps altogether, we may again try and query the MIDX, which will also
fail. But when trying to call `fill_midx_entry()` fails, it also returns
a signal of its failure, and prompts the caller to try and locate the
object elsewhere.
In other words, the normal object traversal machinery works fine in the
presence of a corrupt MIDX, so there is no reason that the MIDX bitmap
machinery should abort in that case when we could easily continue.
Note that we *could* in theory try again to load a MIDX bitmap after
calling `reprepare_packed_git()`. Even though the `prepare_packed_git()`
code is careful to avoid adding a pack that we already have,
`prepare_midx_pack()` is not. So if we got part of the way through
calling `prepare_midx_pack()` on a stale MIDX, and then tried again on a
fresh MIDX that contains some of the same packs, we would end up with a
loop through the `->next` pointer.
For now, let's do the simplest thing possible and fallback to the
non-bitmap code when we detect a stale MIDX so that the complete fix as
above can be implemented carefully.

gc: introduce `gc.recentObjectsHook`
This patch introduces a new multi-valued configuration option,
`gc.recentObjectsHook` as a means to mark certain objects as recent (and
thus exempt from garbage collection), regardless of their age.
When performing a garbage collection operation on a repository with
unreachable objects, Git makes its decision on what to do with those
object(s) based on how recent the objects are or not. Generally speaking,
unreachable-but-recent objects stay in the repository, and older objects
are discarded.
However, we have no convenient way to keep certain precious, unreachable
objects around in the repository, even if they have aged out and would
be pruned. Our options today consist of:
- Point references at the reachability tips of any objects you
consider precious, which may be undesirable or infeasible if there
are many such objects.
- Track them via the reflog, which may be undesirable since the
reflog's lifetime is limited to that of the reference it's tracking
(and callers may want to keep those unreachable objects around for
longer).
- Extend the grace period, which may keep around other objects that
the caller *does* want to discard.
- Manually modify the mtimes of objects you want to keep. If those
objects are already loose, this is easy enough to do (you can just
enumerate and `touch -m` each one).
But if they are packed, you will either end up modifying the mtimes
of *all* objects in that pack, or be forced to write out a loose
copy of that object, both of which may be undesirable. Even worse,
if they are in a cruft pack, that requires modifying its `*.mtimes`
file by hand, since there is no exposed plumbing for this.
- Force the caller to construct the pack of objects they want
to keep themselves, and then mark the pack as kept by adding a
".keep" file. This works, but is burdensome for the caller, and
having extra packs is awkward as you roll forward your cruft pack.
This patch introduces a new option to the above list via the
`gc.recentObjectsHook` configuration, which allows the caller to
specify a program (or set of programs) whose output is treated as a set
of objects to treat as recent, regardless of their true age.
The implementation is straightforward. Git enumerates recent objects via
`add_unseen_recent_objects_to_traversal()`, which enumerates loose and
packed objects, and eventually calls add_recent_object() on any objects
for which `want_recent_object()`'s conditions are met.
This patch modifies the recency condition from simply "is the mtime of
this object more recent than the cutoff?" to "[...] or, is this object
mentioned by at least one `gc.recentObjectsHook`?".
Depending on whether or not we are generating a cruft pack, this allows
the caller to do one of two things:
- If generating a cruft pack, the caller is able to retain additional
objects via the cruft pack, even if they would have otherwise been
pruned due to their age.
- If not generating a cruft pack, the caller is likewise able to
retain additional objects as loose.
A potential alternative here is to introduce a new mode to alter the
contents of the reachable pack instead of the cruft one. One could
imagine a new option to `pack-objects`, say `--extra-reachable-tips`
that does the same thing as above, adding the visited set of objects
along the traversal to the pack.
But this has the unfortunate side-effect of altering the reachability
closure of that pack. If parts of the unreachable object graph mentioned
by one or more of the "extra reachable tips" programs is not closed,
then the resulting pack won't be either. This makes it impossible in the
general case to write out reachability bitmaps for that pack, since
closure is a requirement there.
Instead, keep these unreachable objects in the cruft pack (or set of
unreachable, loose objects) instead, to ensure that we can continue to
have a pack containing just reachable objects, which is always safe to
write a bitmap over.

builtin/repack.c: only collect fully-formed packs
To partition the set of packs based on which ones are "kept" (either
they have a .keep file, or were otherwise marked via the `--keep-pack`
option) and "non-kept" ones (anything else), `git repack` uses its
`collect_pack_filenames()` function.
Ordinarily, we would rely on a convenience function such as
`get_all_packs()` to enumerate and partition the set of packs. But
`collect_pack_filenames()` uses `readdir()` directly to read the
contents of the "$GIT_DIR/objects/pack" directory, and adds each entry
ending in ".pack" to the appropriate list (either kept, or non-kept as
above).
This is subtly racy, since `collect_pack_filenames()` may see a pack
that is not fully staged (i.e., it is missing its ".idx" file).
Ordinarily, this doesn't cause a problem. But it can cause issues when
generating a cruft pack.
This is because `git repack` feeds (among other things) the list of
existing kept packs down to `git pack-objects --cruft` to indicate that
any kept packs will not be removed from the repository (so that the
cruft pack machinery can avoid packing objects that appear in those
packs as cruft).
But `read_cruft_objects()` lists packfiles by calling `get_all_packs()`.
So if a ".pack" file exists (necessary to get that pack to appear to
`collect_pack_filenames()`), but doesn't have a corresponding ".idx"
file (necessary to get that pack to appear via `get_all_packs()`), we'll
complain with:
Fix the above by teaching `collect_pack_filenames()` to only collect
packs with their corresponding `*.idx` files in place, indicating that
those packs have been fully staged.
There are a couple of things worth noting:
- Since each entry in the `extra_keep` list (which contains the
`--keep-pack` names) has a `*.pack` suffix, we'll have to swap the
suffix from ".pack" to ".idx", and compare that instead.
- Since we use the the `fname_kept_list` to figure out which packs to
delete (with `git repack -d`), we would have previously deleted a
`*.pack` with no index (since the existince of a ".pack" file is
necessary and sufficient to include that pack in the list of
existing non-kept packs).
Now we will leave it alone (since that pack won't appear in the
list). This is far more correct behavior, since we don't want
to race with a pack being staged. Deleting a partially staged pack
is unlikely, however, since the window of time between staging a
pack and moving its .idx file into place is miniscule.
Note that this window does *not* include the time it takes to
receive and index the pack, since the incoming data goes into
"$GIT_DIR/objects/tmp_pack_XXXXXX", which does not end in ".pack"
and is thus ignored by collect_pack_filenames().
In the future, this function should probably be rewritten as a callback
to `for_each_file_in_pack_dir()`, but this is the simplest change we
could do in the short-term.

repository: create read_replace_refs setting
The 'read_replace_refs' global specifies whether or not we should
respect the references of the form 'refs/replace/<oid>' to replace which
object we look up when asking for '<oid>'. This global has caused issues
when it is not initialized properly, such as in b6551feadfd (merge-tree:
load default git config, 2023-05-10).
To make this more robust, move its config-based initialization out of
git_default_config and into prepare_repo_settings(). This provides a
repository-scoped version of the 'read_replace_refs' global.
The global still has its purpose: it is disabled process-wide by the
GIT_NO_REPLACE_OBJECTS environment variable or by a call to
disable_replace_refs() in some specific Git commands.
Since we already encapsulated the use of the constant inside
replace_refs_enabled(), we can perform the initialization inside that
method, if necessary. This solves the problem of forgetting to check the
config, as we will check it before returning this value.
Due to this encapsulation, the global can move to be static within
replace-object.c.
There is an interesting behavior change possible here: we now have a
repository-scoped understanding of this config value. Thus, if there was
a command that recurses into submodules and might follow replace refs,
then it would now respect the core.useReplaceRefs config value in each
repository.
'git grep --recurse-submodules' is such a command that recurses into
submodules in-process. We can demonstrate the granularity of this config
value via a test in t7814.

cat-file: add option '-Z' that delimits input and output with NUL
In db9d67f2e9 (builtin/cat-file.c: support NUL-delimited input with
`-z`, 2022-07-22), we have introduced a new mode to read the input via
NUL-delimited records instead of newline-delimited records. This allows
the user to query for revisions that have newlines in their path
component. While unusual, such queries are perfectly valid and thus it
is clear that we should be able to support them properly.
Unfortunately, the commit only changed the input to be NUL-delimited,
but didn't change the output at the same time. While this is fine for
queries that are processed successfully, it is less so for queries that
aren't. In the case of missing commits for example the result can become
entirely unparsable:
This is of course a crafted query that is intentionally gaming the
deficiency, but more benign queries that contain newlines would have
similar problems.
Ideally, we should have also changed the output to be NUL-delimited when
`-z` is specified to avoid this problem. As the input is NUL-delimited,
it is clear that the output in this case cannot ever contain NUL
characters by itself. Furthermore, Git does not allow NUL characters in
revisions anyway, further stressing the point that using NUL-delimited
output is safe. The only exception is of course the object data itself,
but as git-cat-file(1) prints the size of the object data clients should
read until that specified size has been consumed.
But even though `-z` has only been introduced a few releases ago in Git
v2.38.0, changing the output format retroactively to also NUL-delimit
output would be a backwards incompatible change. And while one could
make the argument that the output is inherently broken already, we need
to assume that there are existing users out there that use it just fine
given that revisions containing newlines are quite exotic.
Instead, introduce a new option `-Z` that switches to NUL-delimited
input and output. While this new option could arguably only switch the
output format to be NUL-delimited, the consequence would be that users
have to always specify both `-z` and `-Z` when the input may contain
newlines. On the other hand, if the user knows that there never will be
newlines in the input, they don't have to use either of those options.
There is thus no usecase that would warrant treating input and output
format separately, which is why we instead opt to "do the right thing"
and have `-Z` mean to NUL-terminate both formats.
The old `-z` option is marked as deprecated with a hint that its output
may become unparsable. It is thus hidden both from the synopsis as well
as the command's help output.

while (strbuf_getline(&buf, stdin) != EOF)
into:
while (1) {
int ret;

else

The commit proposed introducing a helper function that is easier to use,
which is just what we have done in the preceding commit. Refactor the
code to use this new helper to simplify the loop.

strbuf: provide CRLF-aware helper to read until a specified delimiter
Many of our commands support reading input that is separated either via
newlines or via NUL characters. Furthermore, in order to be a better
cross platform citizen, these commands typically know to strip the CRLF
sequence so that we also support reading newline-separated inputs on
e.g. the Windows platform. This results in the following kind of awkward
pattern:
```
struct strbuf input = STRBUF_INIT;
while (1) {
int ret;
if (nul_terminated)
ret = strbuf_getline_nul(&input, stdin);
else
ret = strbuf_getline(&input, stdin);
if (ret)
break;
...
}
```
Introduce a new CRLF-aware helper function that can read up to a user
specified delimiter. If the delimiter is `\n` the function knows to also
strip CRLF, otherwise it will only strip the specified delimiter. This
results in the following, much more readable code pattern:
```
struct strbuf input = STRBUF_INIT;
while (strbuf_getdelim_strip_crlf(&input, stdin, delim) != EOF) {
...
}
```
The new function will be used in a subsequent commit.

The tests for git-cat-file(1) are quite old and haven't ever been
updated since they were introduced. They thus tend to use old idioms
that have since grown outdated. Most importantly, many of the tests use
`test $A = $B` to compare expected and actual output. This has the
downside that it is impossible to tell what exactly is different between
both versions in case the test fails.
Refactor the tests to instead use `test_cmp`. While more verbose, it
both tends to be more readable and will result in a nice diff in case
states don't match.

t1006: don't strip timestamps from expected results
In t1006 we have a bunch of tests that verify the output format of the
git-cat-file(1) command. But while part of the output for some tests
would include commit timestamps, we don't verify those but instead strip
them before comparing expected with actual results. This is done by the
function `maybe_remove_timestamp`, which goes all the way back to the
ancient commit b335d3f121 (Add tests for git cat-file, 2008-04-23).
Our tests had been in a different shape back then. Most importantly we
didn't yet have the infrastructure to create objects with deterministic
timestamps. Nowadays we do though, and thus there is no reason anymore
to strip the timestamps.
Refactor the tests to not strip the timestamp anymore.

worktree: integrate with sparse-index
The index is read in 'worktree.c' at two points:
1.The 'validate_no_submodules' function, which checks if there are any
submodules present in the worktree.
2.The 'check_clean_worktree' function, which verifies if a worktree is
'clean', i.e., there are no untracked or modified but uncommitted files.
This is done by running the 'git status' command, and an error message
is thrown if the worktree is not clean. Given that 'git status' is
already sparse-aware, the function is also sparse-aware.
Hence we can just set the requires-full-index to false for
"git worktree".
Add tests that verify that 'git worktree' behaves correctly when the
sparse index is enabled and test to ensure the index is not expanded.
The `p2000` tests demonstrate a ~20% execution time reduction for
'git worktree' using a sparse index:
(Note:the p2000 test results didn't reflect the huge speedup because of
the index reading time is minuscule comparing to the filesystem
operations.)

run-command: report exec error even on ENOENT
If execve(2) fails with ENOENT and we report the error, we use the
format "cannot run %s", followed by the actual error message. For other
errors we use "cannot exec '%s'".
Stop making this subtle distinction and use the second format for all
execve(2) errors. This simplifies the code and makes the prefix more
precise by indicating the failed operation. It also allows us to
slightly simplify t1800.16.
On Windows -- which lacks execve(2) -- we already use a single format in
all cases: "cannot spawn %s".

t1800: loosen matching of error message for bad shebang
t1800.16 checks whether an attempt to run a hook script with a missing
executable in its #! line fails and reports that error. The expected
error message differs between platforms. The test handles two common
variants, but on NonStop OS we get a third one: "fatal: cannot exec
'bad-hooks/test-hook': ...", which causes the test to fail there.
We don't really care about the specific message text all that much here.
Use grep and a single regex with alternations to ascertain that we get
an error message (fatal or otherwise) about the failed invocation of the
hook, but don't bother checking if we get the right variant for the
platform the test is running on or whether quoting is done. This looser
check let's the test pass on NonStop OS.

592fc5b3 (dir.h: move DTYPE defines from cache.h, 2023-04-22) moved
DTYPE macros from cache.h to dir.h, but they are still used by cache.h
to implement ce_to_dtype(); cache.h cannot include dir.h because that
would cause name-hash.c to have two different and conflicting
definitions of `struct dir_entry`. (That should be separately fixed.)
Both dir.h and cache.h include statinfo.h, and this seems a reasonable
place for these definitions.
This change fixes a broken build issue on old SunOS.

add: test use of brackets when color is disabled

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] add: test use of brackets when color is disabled
The interactive add command, 'git add -i', displays a menu of options
using full words. When color is enabled, the first letter of each word
is changed to a highlight color to signal that the first letter could be
used as a command. Without color, brackets ("[]") are used around these
first letters.
This behavior was not previously tested directly in t3701, so add a test
for it now. Since we use 'git add -i >actual <input' without
'force_color', the color system recognizes that colors are not available
on stdout and will be disabled by default.
This test would reproduce correctly with or without the fix in the
previous commit to make sure that color.ui is respected in 'git add'.
