When sorting the output of `git shortlog` by count, a list of authors in
alphabetical order is then sorted by contribution count. Obviously, the
idea is to maintain the alphabetical order for items with identical
contribution count.
At the moment, this job is performed by `qsort()`. As that function is
not guaranteed to implement a stable sort algorithm, this can lead to
inconsistent and/or surprising behavior: items with identical
contribution count could lose their alphabetical sub-order.
The `qsort()` in MS Visual C's runtime does _not_ implement a stable
sort algorithm, and under certain circumstances this even causes a test
failure in t4201.21 "shortlog can match multiple groups", where two
authors both are listed with 2 contributions, and are listed in inverse
alphabetical order.

mergetool(vimdiff): allow paths to contain spaces again
In 0041797449d (vimdiff: new implementation with layout support,
2022-03-30), we introduced a completely new implementation of the
`vimdiff` backend for `git mergetool`.
In this implementation, we no longer call `vim` directly but we
accumulate in the variable `FINAL_CMD` an arbitrary number of commands
for `vim` to execute, which necessitates the use of `eval` to split the
commands properly into multiple command-line arguments.
That same `eval` command also needs to pass the paths to `vim`, and
while it looks as if they are quoted correctly, that quoting only
reaches the `eval` instruction and is lost after that, therefore paths
that contain whitespace characters (or other characters that are
interpreted by the POSIX shell) are handled incorrectly.
This is a simple reproducer:
git init -b main bam-merge-fail
cd bam-merge-fail
echo a>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "added 'a file.txt'"
echo b>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "diverged b 'a file.txt'"
git checkout -b c HEAD~
echo c>"a file.txt"
git add "a file.txt"
git commit -m "diverged c 'a file.txt'"
git checkout main
git merge c
git mergetool --tool=vimdiff
With Git v2.37.0/v2.37.1, this will open 7 buffers, not four, and not
display the correct contents at all.
To fix this, let's not expand the variables containing the path
parameters before passing them to the `eval` command, but let that
command expand the variables instead.

Commit 0139c58ab9 (revisions API users: add "goto cleanup" for

cmd_diff_files() into a goto. But it put the cleanup label too early: if
read_cache_preload() returns an error, we'll set result to "-1", but
then jump to calling run_diff_files(), overwriting our result.
We should jump past the call to run_diff_files(). Likewise, we should go
past diff_result_code(), which is expecting to see a code from an actual
diff, not a negative error code.
In practice, I suspect this bug cannot actually be triggered, because
read_cache_preload() does not seem to ever return an error. Its return
value (eventually) comes from do_read_index(), which gives the number of
cache entries found, and calls die() on error. Still, it makes sense to

Let's move the creation of the unborn symref into update_head(). This

clone: use remote branch if it matches default HEAD
Usually clone tries to use the same local HEAD as the remote (unless the
user has given --branch explicitly). Even if the remote HEAD is detached
or unborn, we can detect those situations with modern versions of Git.
If the remote is too old to support the "unborn" extension (or it has
been disabled via config), then we can't know the name of the remote's
unborn HEAD, and we fall back whatever the local default branch name is
configured to be.
But that leads to one weird corner case. It's rare because it needs a
number of factors:
- the remote has an unborn HEAD
- the remote is too old to support "unborn", or has disabled it
- the remote has another branch "foo"
- the local default branch name is "foo"
In that case you end up with a local clone on an unborn "foo" branch,
disconnected completely from the remote's "foo". This is rare in
practice, but the result is quite confusing.
When choosing "foo", we can double check whether the remote has such a
name, and if so, start our local "foo" at the same spot, rather than
making it unborn.
Note that this causes a test failure in t5605, which is cloning from a
bundle that doesn't contain HEAD (so it behaves like a remote that
doesn't support "unborn"), but has a single "main" branch. That test
expects that we end up in the weird "unborn main" case, where we don't
actually check out the remote branch of the same name. Even though we
have to update the test, this seems like an argument in favor of this
patch: checking out main is what I'd expect from such a bundle.
So this patch updates the test for the new behavior and adds an adjacent
one that checks what the original was going for: if there's no HEAD and
the bundle _doesn't_ have a branch that matches our local default name,
then we end up with nothing checked out.

clone: propagate empty remote HEAD even with other branches
Unless "--branch" was given, clone generally tries to match the local
HEAD to the remote one. For most repositories, this is easy: the remote
tells us which branch HEAD was pointing to, and we call our local
checkout() function on that branch.
When cloning an empty repository, it's a little more tricky: we have
special code that checks the transport's "unborn" extension, or falls back
to our local idea of what the default branch should be. In either case,
we point the new HEAD to that, and set up the branch.* config.
But that leaves one case unhandled: when the remote repository _isn't_
empty, but its HEAD is unborn. The checkout() function is smart enough
to realize we didn't fetch the remote HEAD and it bails with a warning.
But we'll have ignored any information the remote gave us via the unborn
extension. This leads to nonsense outcomes:
- If the remote has its HEAD pointing to an unborn "foo" and contains
another branch "bar", cloning will get branch "bar" but leave the
local HEAD pointing at "master" (or whatever our local default is),
which is useless. The project does not use "master" as a branch.
- Worse, if the other branch "bar" is instead called "master" (but
again, the remote HEAD is not pointing to it), then we end up with a
local unborn branch "master", which is not connected to the remote
"master" (it shares no history, and there's no branch.* config).
Instead, we should try to use the remote's HEAD, even if its unborn, to
be consistent with the other cases.
The reason this case was missed is that cmd_clone() handles empty and
non-empty repositories on two different sides of a conditional:
if (we have any refs) {
fetch refs;
check for --branch;
otherwise, try to point our head at remote head;
otherwise, our head is NULL;
} else {
check for --branch;
otherwise, try to use "unborn" extension;
otherwise, fall back to our default name name;
}
So the smallest change would be to repeat the "unborn" logic at the end
of the first block. But we can note some other overlaps and
inconsistencies:
- both sides have to handle --branch (though note that it's always an
error for the empty repo case, since an empty repo by definition
does not have a matching branch)
- the fall back to the default name is much more explicit in the
empty-repo case. The non-empty case eventually ends up bailing
from checkout() with a warning, which produces a similar result, but
fails to set up the branch config we do in the empty case.
So let's pull the HEAD setup out of this conditional entirely. This
de-duplicates some of the code and the result is easy to follow, because
helper functions like find_ref_by_name() do the right thing even in the
empty-repo case (i.e., by returning NULL).
There are two subtleties:
- for a remote with a detached HEAD, it will advertise an oid for HEAD
(which we store in our "remote_head" variable), but we won't find a
matching refname (so our "remote_head_points_at" is NULL). In this
case we make a local detached HEAD to match. Right now this happens
implicitly by reaching update_head() with a non-NULL remote_head
(since we skip all of the unborn-fallback). We'll now need to
account for it explicitly before doing the fallback.
- for an empty repo, we issue a warning to the user that they've
cloned an empty repo. The text of that warning doesn't make sense
for a non-empty repo with an unborn HEAD, so we'll have to
differentiate the two cases there. We could just use different text,
but instead let's allow the code to continue down to checkout(),
which will issue an appropriate warning, like:
remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout
Continuing down to checkout() will make it easier to do more fixes
on top (see below).
Note that this patch fixes the case where the other side reports an
unborn head to us using the protocol extension. It _doesn't_ fix the
case where the other side doesn't tell us, we locally guess "master",
and the other side happens to have a "master" which its HEAD doesn't
point. But it doesn't make anything worse there, and it should actually
make it easier to fix that problem on top.

clone: drop extra newline from warning message
We don't need to put a "\n" in calls to warning(), since it adds one
itself (and the user sees an extra blank line). Drop it, and while we're
here, drop the full-stop from the message, which goes against our
guidelines.
This bug dates all the way back to 8434c2f1af (Build in clone,

you have to clone a repository whose HEAD is unborn, but which is not

merge-ort: fix issue with dual rename and add/add conflict
There is code in both merge-recursive and merge-ort for avoiding doubly
transitive renames (i.e. one side renames directory A/ -> B/, and the
other side renames directory B/ -> C/), because this combination would
otherwise make a mess for new files added to A/ on the first side and
wondering which directory they end up in -- especially if there were
even more renames such as the first side renaming C/ -> D/. In such
cases, it just turns "off" directory rename detection for the higher
order transitive cases.
The testcases added in t6423 a couple commits ago are slightly different
but similar in principle. They involve a similar case of paired
renaming but instead of A/ -> B/ and B/ -> C/, the second side renames
a leading directory of B/ to C/. And both sides add a new file
somewhere under the directory that the other side will rename. While
the new files added start within different directories and thus could
logically end up within different directories, it is weird for a file
on one side to end up where the other one started and not move along
with it. So, let's just turn off directory rename detection in this
case as well.
Another way to look at this is that if the source name involved in a
directory rename on one side is the target name of a directory rename
operation for a file from the other side, then we avoid the doubly
transitive rename. (More concretely, if a directory rename on side D
wants to rename a file on side E from OLD_NAME -> NEW_NAME, and side D
already had a file named NEW_NAME, and a directory rename on side E
wants to rename side D's NEW_NAME -> NEWER_NAME, then we turn off the
directory rename detection for NEW_NAME to prevent the
NEW_NAME -> NEWER_NAME rename, and instead end up with an add/add
conflict on NEW_NAME.)

merge-ort: shuffle the computation and cleanup of potential collisions
Run compute_collisions() for renames on both sides of history before
any calls to collect_renames(), and do not free the computed collisions
until after both calls to collect_renames(). This is just a code
reorganization at this point that doesn't make sense on its own, but
will permit us to use the computed collision info from both sides
within each call to collect_renames() in a subsequent commit.

t6423: add tests of dual directory rename plus add/add conflict
This is an attempt at minimalizing a testcase reported by Glen Choo
with tensorflow where merge-ort would report an assertion failure:
Assertion failed: (ci->filemask == 2 || ci->filemask == 4), function apply_directory_rename_modifications, file merge-ort.c, line 2410
reversing the direction of the merge provides a different error:
error: cache entry has null sha1: ...
fatal: unable to write .git/index
so we add testcases for both. With these new testcases, the
recursive strategy differs in that it returns the latter error for
both merge directions.
These testcases are somehow a little different than Glen's original
tensorflow testcase in that these ones trigger a bug with the recursive
algorithm whereas his testcase didn't. I figure that means these
testcases somehow manage to be more comprehensive.

Rewrite of "git add -i" in C that appeared in Git 2.25 didn't

The test worked despite the error, because even though
test_file_is_empty is a non-existent function, the '!' negated the
return value and made it pass. It'd be better to avoid the negation,
so something like

commit-graph.c: no lazy fetch in lookup_commit_in_graph()
The commit-graph is used to opportunistically optimize accesses to
certain pieces of information on commit objects, and
lookup_commit_in_graph() tries to say "no" when the requested commit
does not locally exist by returning NULL, in which case the caller
can ask for (which may result in on-demand fetching from a promisor
remote) and parse the commit object itself.
However, it uses a wrong helper, repo_has_object_file(), to do so.
This helper not only checks if an object is mmediately available in
the local object store, but also tries to fetch from a promisor remote.
But the fetch machinery calls lookup_commit_in_graph(), thus causing an
infinite loop.
We should make lookup_commit_in_graph() expect that a commit given to it
can be legitimately missing from the local object store, by using the
has_object_file() helper instead.

config tests: fix harmless but broken "rm -r" cleanup
The "test_when_finished" cleanup phase added in 4179b4897f2 (config:

never worked as intended, firstly the ".config/git" is a directory, so
we'd need the "-r" flag, but more importantly the $HOME variable
wasn't properly quoted.
We'd thus end up trying to remove the "trash" part of "trash

non-existing files.
It's possible that this would have caused an actual failure if someone
had a $HOME with a space character in it, such that our "rm -f" would
fail to remove an existing directory, but in practice that probably
never happened.

git-rebase.txt: use back-ticks consistently
While inspecting the 'git rebase' documentation, I noticed that it is
inconsistent with how it uses back-ticks (or other punctuation) for
identifying Git commands, command-line arguments, or values for those
arguments.
Sometimes, an argument (like '--interactive') would appear without any
punctuation, causing the argument to not have any special formatting.
Other times, arguments or 'git rebase' itself would have single-quotes
giving a bold look (in the HTML documentation at least).
By consistently using back-ticks, these types of strings appear in a
monospace font with special highlighting to appear more clearly as text
that exists in a command-line invocation of a Git command.
This rather-large diff is the result of scanning git-rebase.txt and
adding back-ticks as appropriate. Some are adding back-ticks where there
was no punctuation. Others are replacing single quotes.
There are also a few minor cleanups in the process, including those
found by reviewers.

pack-objects.h: remove outdated pahole results
The size and padding of `struct object_entry` is an important factor in
determining the memory usage of `pack-objects`. For this reason, 3b13a5f263 (pack-objects: reorder members to shrink struct object_entry,
2018-04-14) added a comment containing some information from pahole
indicating the size and padding of that struct.
Unfortunately, this comment hasn't been updated since 9ac3f0e5b3
(pack-objects: fix performance issues on packing large deltas,
2018-07-22), despite the size of this struct changing many times since
that commit.
To see just how often the size of object_entry changes, I skimmed the
first-parent history with this script:
for sha in $(git rev-list --first-parent --reverse 9ac3f0e..)
do
echo -n "$sha "
git checkout -q $sha
make -s pack-objects.o 2>/dev/null
pahole -C object_entry pack-objects.o | sed -n \
-e 's/\/\* size: \([0-9]*\).*/size \1/p' \
-e 's/\/\*.*padding: \([0-9]*\).*/padding \1/p' | xargs
done | uniq -f1
In between each merge, the size of object_entry changes too often to
record every instance here. But the important merges (along with their
corresponding sizes and bit paddings) in chronological order are:
(indicating that the current size of the struct is 96 bytes, with 8
padding bits).
Even though this comment was written in a good spirit, it is updated
infrequently enough that it serves to confuse rather than to encourage
contributors to update the appropriate values when the modify the
definition of object_entry.
For that reason, eliminate the confusion by removing the comment
altogether.

vscode: improve tab size and wrapping
The contrib/vscode/init.sh script initializes the .vscode directory with
some helpful metadata so VS Code handles Git code better.
One big issue that VS Code has is detecting the tab width based on file
type. ".txt" files were not covered by this script before, so add them
with the appropriate tab widths. This prevents inserting spaces instead
of tabs and keeps the tab width to eight instead of four or two.
While we are here, remove the "editor.wordWrap" settings. The editor's
word wrap is only cosmetic: it does not actually insert newlines when
your typing goes over the column limit. This can make it appear like you
have properly wrapped code, but it is incorrect. Further, existing code
that is over the column limit is wrapped even if your editor window is
wider than the limit. This can make reading such code more difficult.
Without these lines, VS Code renders the lines accurately, without
"ghost" newlines.
