dir.c:trim_trailing_spaces(): fix for " \ " sequence

Discard the unnecessary 'nr_spaces' variable, remove 'strlen()' and
improve the 'if' structure. Switch to pointers instead of integers
to control the loop.

Slightly more rare occurrences of 'text \ ' with a backslash
in between spaces are handled correctly. Namely, the code in
7e2e4b37 (dir: ignore trailing spaces in exclude patterns, 2014-02-09)
does not reset 'last_space' when a backslash is encountered and the above
line stays intact as a result.

Add a test at the end of t/t0008-ignores.sh to exhibit this behavior.

pack-objects: use free()+xcalloc() instead of xrealloc... René Scharfe Sun, 1 Jun 2014 11:07:21 +0000 (13:07 +0200)

pack-objects: use free()+xcalloc() instead of xrealloc()+memset()

Whenever the hash table becomes too small then its size is increased,
the original part (and the added space) is zerod out using memset(),
and the table is rebuilt from scratch.

Simplify this proceess by returning the old memory using free() and
allocating the new buffer using xcalloc(), which already clears the
buffer for us. That way we avoid copying the old hash table contents
needlessly inside xrealloc().

While at it, use the first array member with sizeof instead of a
specific type. The old code used uint32_t and int, while index is
actually an array of int32_t. Their sizes are the same basically
everywhere, so it's not actually a problem, but the new code is
cleaner and doesn't have to be touched should the type be changed.

mailinfo: use strcmp() for string comparisonRené Scharfe Sun, 1 Jun 2014 09:00:40 +0000 (11:00 +0200)

mailinfo: use strcmp() for string comparison

The array header is defined as:

static const char *header[MAX_HDR_PARSED] = {
"From","Subject","Date",
};

When looking for the index of a specfic string in that array, simply
use strcmp() instead of memcmp(). This avoids running over the end of
the string (e.g. with memcmp("Subject", "From", 7)) and gets rid of
magic string length constants.

fetch doc: remove notes on outdated "mixed layout"

In old days before Git 1.5, it was customery for "git fetch" to use
the same local branch namespace to keep track of the remote-tracking
branches, and it was necessary to tell users not to check them out
and commit on them. Since everybody uses the separate remote layout
these days, there is no need to warn against the practice to check
out the right-hand side of <refspec> and build on it---the RHS is
typically not even a local branch.

Incidentally, this also kills one mention of "Pull:" line of
$GIT_DIR/remotes/* configuration, which is a lot less familiar to
new people than the more modern remote.*.fetch configuration
variable.

sideband.c: do not use ANSI control sequence on non-terminal

Diagnostic messages received on the sideband #2 from the server side
are sent to the standard error with ANSI terminal control sequence
"\033[K" that erases to the end of line appended at the end of each
line.

However, some programs (e.g. GitExtensions for Windows) read and
interpret and/or show the message without understanding the terminal
control sequences, resulting them to be shown to their end users.
To help these programs, squelch the control sequence when the
standard error stream is not being sent to a tty.

NOTE: I considered to cover the case that a pager has already been
started. But decided that is probably not worth worrying about here,
though, as we shouldn't be using a pager for commands that do network
communications (and if we do, omitting the magic line-clearing signal
is probably a sane thing to do).

compat/bswap.h: fix endianness detection

The changes to make detection of endianness more portable had a bug
that breaks on (at least) Solaris x86.

The bug appears to be a simple copy/paste typo. It checks for
_BIG_ENDIAN and not _LITTLE_ENDIAN for both the case where we would
decide the system is big endian and little endian. Instead, the
second test should be for _LITTLE_ENDIAN and not _BIG_ENDIAN.

Two fixes were possible:

1. Change the negation order of the conditions in the second test.
2. Reverse the order of the conditions in the second test.

Use the second option so that the condition we expect is always a
positive check.

As 0232852b, but for the push tests instead: this avoids a start_httpd
in the middle of the file, which fails under GIT_TEST_HTTPD=false.

Note that we have to munge the test in a few ways while
moving it:

1. We drop the `test -z "$GIT_TEST_HTTPD"` check; this is
too simplistic since 83d842d, and we should let
lib-httpd.sh handle it.

2. We have to port over some of the old setup from t5538.

3. In the final test, we no longer expect the extra commit
"1" built on top of "4". This was a side effect from an
earlier test in t5538 which was not ported over.

- "Branches" is a more common way to say "heads" in these days.

- Remote-tracking branches are used a lot more these days and it is
worth mentioning that it is one of the primary side effects of
the command to update them.

- Avoid "X. That means Y." If Y is easier to understand to
readers, just say that upfront.

- Use of explicit refspec to fetch tags does not have much to do
with turning "auto following" on or off. It is a way to fetch
tags that otherwise would not be fetched by auto-following.

t5537: re-drop http tests

These were originally removed by 0232852 (t5537: move
http tests out to t5539, 2014-02-13). However, they were
accidentally re-added in 1ddb4d7 (Merge branch
'nd/upload-pack-shallow', 2014-03-21).

This looks like an error in manual conflict resolution.
Here's what happened:

1. v1.9.0 shipped with the http tests in t5537.

2. We realized that this caused problems, and built
0232852 on top to move the tests to their own file.
This fix made it into v1.9.1.

3. We later had another fix in nd/upload-pack-shallow that
also touched t5537. It was built directly on v1.9.0.

When we merged nd/upload-pack-shallow to master, we got a
conflict; it was built on a version with the http tests, but
we had since removed them. The correct resolution was to
drop the http tests and keep the new ones, but instead we
kept everything.

time. Part of the garbage collecting is pack-refs and pruning
reflogs. These require locking some refs and may abort other processes
trying to lock the same ref. If gc --auto is fired in the middle of a

which could never happen before 9f673f9.

Keep running pack-refs and "reflog --prune" in foreground to stop
parallel ref updates. The remaining background operations (repack,
prune and rerere) should not impact running git processes.

When 'git remote rm' or 'git remote prune' were used in a repository
with many refs, and needed to delete many remote-tracking refs, a lot
of time was spent deleting those refs since for each deleted ref,
repack_without_refs() was called to rewrite packed-refs without just
that deleted ref.

To avoid this, call repack_without_refs() first to repack without all
the refs that will be deleted, before calling delete_ref() to delete
each one completely. The call to repack_without_ref() in delete_ref()
then becomes a no-op, since packed-refs already won't contain any of
the deleted refs.

http: optionally extract charset parameter from content... Jeff King Thu, 22 May 2014 09:30:05 +0000 (05:30 -0400)

http: optionally extract charset parameter from content-type

Since the previous commit, we now give a sanitized,
shortened version of the content-type header to any callers
who ask for it.

This patch adds back a way for them to cleanly access
specific parameters to the type. We could easily extract all
parameters and make them available via a string_list, but:

1. That complicates the interface and memory management.

2. In practice, no planned callers care about anything
except the charset.

This patch therefore goes with the simplest thing, and we
can expand or change the interface later if it becomes
necessary.

http: extract type/subtype portion of content-typeJeff King Thu, 22 May 2014 09:29:47 +0000 (05:29 -0400)

http: extract type/subtype portion of content-type

When we get a content-type from curl, we get the whole
header line, including any parameters, and without any
normalization (like downcasing or whitespace) applied.
If we later try to match it with strcmp() or even
strcasecmp(), we may get false negatives.

This could cause two visible behaviors:

1. We might fail to recognize a smart-http server by its
content-type.

2. We might fail to relay text/plain error messages to
users (especially if they contain a charset parameter).

This patch teaches the http code to extract and normalize
just the type/subtype portion of the string. This is
technically passing out less information to the callers, who
can no longer see the parameters. But none of the current
callers cares, and a future patch will add back an
easier-to-use method for accessing those parameters.

strbuf: add strbuf_tolower function

This is a convenience wrapper to call tolower on each

This makes config's lowercase() function obsolete, though
note that because we have a strbuf, we are careful to
operate over the whole strbuf, rather than assuming that a
NUL is the end-of-string.

We could continue to offer a pure-string lowercase, but
there would be no callers (in most pure-string cases, we
actually duplicate and lowercase the duplicate, for which we
have the xstrdup_tolower wrapper).

test-lint: find unportable sed, echo, test, and export usage after &&

Instead of anchoring these checks with "^\s*", just check that the
usage is preceded by a word boundary. So now we can catch

test $cond && export foo=bar

just like we already catch

test $cond &&
export foo=bar

As a side effect, this will detect usage of "sed -i", "echo -n", "test
a == b", and "export a=b" in comments. That is not ideal but it's
potentially useful because people sometimes copy code from comments so
it can be good to also avoid nonportable patterns there.

To avoid false positives, keep the checks for 'declare' and 'which'
anchored. Those are frequently used words in normal English-language
comments.

pretty.c: format string with truncate respects logOutputEncoding

Pretty format string %<(N,[ml]trunc)>%s truncates subject to a given
length with an appropriate padding. This works for non-ASCII texts when
i18n.logOutputEncoding is UTF-8 only (independently of a printed commit
message encoding) but does not work when i18n.logOutputEncoding is NOT
UTF-8.

In 7e77df3 (pretty: two phase conversion for non utf-8 commits, 2013-04-19)
'format_commit_item' function assumes commit message to be in UTF-8.
And that was so until ecaee80 (pretty: --format output should honor
logOutputEncoding, 2013-06-26) where conversion to logOutputEncoding was
added before calling 'format_commit_message'.

Correct this by converting a commit message to UTF-8 first (as it
assumed in 7e77df3 (pretty: two phase conversion for non utf-8 commits,
2013-04-19)). Only after that convert a commit message to an actual
logOutputEncoding.

move "--follow needs one pathspec" rule to diff_setup_done

Because of the way "--follow" is implemented, we must have
exactly one pathspec. "git log" enforces this restriction,
but other users of the revision traversal code do not. For
example, "git format-patch --follow" will segfault during
try_to_follow_renames, as we have no pathspecs at all.

We can push this check down into diff_setup_done, which is
probably a better place anyway. It is the diff code that
introduces this restriction, so other parts of the code
should not need to care themselves.

commit: allow core.commentChar=auto for character auto selection

When core.commentChar is "auto", the comment char starts with '#' as
in default but if it's already in the prepared message, find another
char in a small subset. This should stop surprises because git strips
some lines unexpectedly.

Note that git is not smart enough to recognize '#' as the comment char
in custom templates and convert it if the final comment char is
different. It thinks '#' lines in custom templates as part of the
commit message. So don't use this with custom templates.

git-gui: tolerate major version changes when comparing the git version

Since git 2.0.0 starting git gui in a submodule using a gitfile fails with
the following error:

No working directory ../../../<path>

couldn't change working directory
to "../../../<path>": no such file or
directory

This is because "git rev-parse --show-toplevel" is only run when git gui
sees a git version of at least 1.7.0 (which is the version in which the
--show-toplevel option was introduced). But "package vsatisfies" returns
false when the major version changes, which is not what we want here.

Fix that for both places where the git version is checked using vsatisfies
by appending a '-' to the version number. This tells vsatisfies that a
change of the major version is not considered to be a problem, as long as
the new major version is larger. This is done for both the place that
caused the reported bug and another spot where the git version is tested
for another feature.

request-pull: resurrect for-linus -> tags/for-linus DWIM

Older versions of Git before v1.7.10 did not DWIM

$ git pull $URL for-linus

to the tag "tags/for-linus" and the users were required to say

$ git pull $URL tags/for-linus

instead. Because newer versions of Git works either way,
request-pull used to show tags/for-linus when asked

$ git request-pull origin/master $URL for-linus

The recent updates broke this and in the output we see "for-linus"
without the "tags/" prefix.

As v1.7.10 is more than 2 years old, this should matter very little
in practice, but resurrecting it is very simple.

git grep -O -i: if the pager is 'less', pass the '-I' option

When <command> happens to be the magic string "less", today

git grep -O<command> -e<pattern>

helpfully passes +/<pattern> to less so you can navigate through
the results within a file using the n and shift+n keystrokes.

Alas, that doesn't do the right thing for a case-insensitive match,
i.e.

git grep -i -O<command> -e<pattern>

For that case we should pass --IGNORE-CASE to "less" so that n and
shift+n can move between results ignoring case in the pattern.

The original patch came from msysgit and used "-i", but that was not
due to lack of support for "-I" but it merely overlooked that it
ought to work even when the pattern contains capital letters.

open_sha1_file: report "most interesting" errnoJeff King Thu, 15 May 2014 08:54:06 +0000 (04:54 -0400)

open_sha1_file: report "most interesting" errno

When we try to open a loose object file, we first attempt to
open in the local object database, and then try any
alternates. This means that the errno value when we return
will be from the last place we looked (and due to the way
the code is structured, simply ENOENT if we do not have have
any alternates).

This can cause confusing error messages, as read_sha1_file
checks for ENOENT when reporting a missing object. If errno
is something else, we report that. If it is ENOENT, but
has_loose_object reports that we have it, then we claim the
object is corrupted. For example:

$ chmod 0 .git/objects/??/*
$ git rev-list --all
fatal: loose object b2d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131 (stored in .git/objects/b2/d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131) is corrupt

This patch instead keeps track of the "most interesting"
errno we receive during our search. We consider ENOENT to be
the least interesting of all, and otherwise report the first
error found (so problems in the object database take
precedence over ones in alternates). Here it is with this
patch:

$ git rev-list --all
fatal: failed to read object b2d6fab18b92d49eac46dc3c5a0bcafabda20131: Permission denied

argv-array: drop "detach" code

The argv_array_detach function (and associated free() function) was
really only useful for transferring ownership of the memory to a "struct
child_process". Now that we have an internal argv_array in that struct,
there are no callers left.

get_exporter: use argv_array

This simplifies the code and avoids a fixed array size that
we might accidentally overflow. It also prevents a leak
after finish_command is run, by using the argv_array that
run-command manages for us.

get_helper: use run-command's internal argv_array

The get_helper functions dynamically allocates an
argv_array, feeds it to start_command, and then returns. We
then have to later clean up the memory manually after
calling finish_command. We can make this simpler by just
using run-command's internal argv_array, which handles
cleanup for us.

This also prevents a memory leak in the case that
transport_take_over is used, in which case we free the child
in finish_connect, which does not manually free the array.
