When "git bundle" aborts due to an empty commit ranges
(i.e. resulting in an empty pack), it left a file descriptor to an
lockfile open, which resulted in leftover lockfile on Windows where
you cannot remove a file with an open file descriptor. This has
been corrected.
* jk/close-duped-fd-before-unlock-for-bundle:
bundle: dup() output descriptor closer to point-of-use
|
|
The recently merged "rebase in C" has an escape hatch to use the
scripted version when necessary, but it hasn't been documented,
which has been corrected.
* ab/rebase-in-c-escape-hatch:
tests: add a special setup where rebase.useBuiltin is off
rebase doc: document rebase.useBuiltin
|
|
The way "git rebase" parses and forwards the command line options
meant for underlying "git am" has been revamped, which fixed for
options with parameters that were not passed correctly.
* js/rebase-am-options:
rebase: validate -C<n> and --whitespace=<mode> parameters early
rebase: really just passthru the `git am` options
|
|
"git ls-remote --sort=<thing>" can feed an object that is not yet
available into the comparison machinery and segfault, which has
been corrected to check such a request upfront and reject it.
* sg/ref-filter-wo-repository:
ref-filter: don't look for objects when outside of a repository
|
|
Doc update.
* nd/doc-extensions:
doc: move extensions.worktreeConfig to the right place
|

The build procedure to link for fuzzing test has been made
customizable with a new Makefile variable.

|
|
Bugfix for the recently graduated "git rebase --rebase-merges".
* js/rebase-r-and-merge-head:
status: rebase and merge can be in progress at the same time
built-in rebase --skip/--abort: clean up stale .git/<name> files
rebase -i: include MERGE_HEAD into files to clean up
rebase -r: do not write MERGE_HEAD unless needed
rebase -r: demonstrate bug with conflicting merges
|

When editing a patch in a "git add -i" session, a hunk could be
made to no-op. The "git apply" program used to reject a patch with
such a no-op hunk to catch user mistakes, but it is now updated to
explicitly allow a no-op hunk in an edited patch.
* js/apply-recount-allow-noop:
apply --recount: allow "no-op hunks"
|
|
"rev-parse --exclude=<pattern> --branches=<pattern>" etc. did not
quite work, which has been corrected.
* ra/rev-parse-exclude-glob:
refs: fix some exclude patterns being ignored

|
|
Code clean-up with correction to make the reimplemented "git
rebase" a more faithful rewrite of the original, which also regains
performance.

* js/rebase-autostash-detach-fix:
built-in rebase --autostash: leave the current branch alone if possible
built-in rebase: demonstrate regression with --autostash
|
|
The "--no-patch" option, which can be used to get a high-level
overview without the actual line-by-line patch difference shown, of
the "range-diff" command was earlier broken, which has been
corrected.
* ab/range-diff-no-patch:
range-diff: make diff option behavior (e.g. --stat) consistent
range-diff: fix regression in passing along diff options
range-diff doc: add a section about output stability
|
|
"git merge" and "git pull" that merges into an unborn branch used
to completely ignore "--verify-signatures", which has been
corrected.
* jk/verify-sig-merge-into-void:
pull: handle --verify-signatures for unborn branch
merge: handle --verify-signatures for unborn branch
merge: extract verify_merge_signature() helper
|
|
Windows build update.
* js/mingw-res-rebuild:
Windows: force-recompile git.res for differing architectures
|
|
Various functions have been audited for "-Wunused-parameter" warnings
and bugs in them got fixed.
* jk/unused-parameter-fixes:
midx: double-check large object write loop
assert NOARG/NONEG behavior of parse-options callbacks
parse-options: drop OPT_DATE()

When writing a bundle to a file, the bundle code actually creates
"your.bundle.lock" using our lockfile interface. We feed that output
descriptor to a child git-pack-objects via run-command, which has the
quirk that it closes the output descriptor in the parent.
To avoid confusing the lockfile code (which still thinks the descriptor
is valid), we dup() it, and operate on the duplicate.
However, this has a confusing side effect: after the dup() but before we
call pack-objects, we have _two_ descriptors open to the lockfile. If we
call die() during that time, the lockfile code will try to clean up the
partially-written file. It knows to close() the file before unlinking,
since on some platforms (i.e., Windows) the open file would block the
deletion. But it doesn't know about the duplicate descriptor. On
Windows, triggering an error at the right part of the code will result
in the cleanup failing and the lockfile being left in the filesystem.
We can solve this by moving the dup() much closer to start_command(),
shrinking the window in which we have the second descriptor open. It's
easy to place this in such a way that no die() is possible. We could
still die due to a signal in the exact wrong moment, but we already
tolerate races there (e.g., a signal could come before we manage to put
the file on the cleanup list in the first place).
As a bonus, this shields create_bundle() itself from the duplicate-fd
trick, and we can simplify its error handling (note that the lock
rollback now happens unconditionally, but that's OK; it's a noop if we
didn't open the lock in the first place).
The included test uses an empty bundle to cause a failure at the right
spot in the code, because that's easy to trigger (the other likely
errors are write() problems like ENOSPC). Note that it would already
pass on non-Windows systems (because they are happy to unlink an
already-open file).

Add a GIT_TEST_REBASE_USE_BUILTIN=false test mode which is equivalent
to running with rebase.useBuiltin=false. This is needed to spot that
we're not introducing any regressions in the legacy rebase version
while we're carrying both it and the new builtin version.

The rebase.useBuiltin variable introduced in 55071ea248 ("rebase:
start implementing it as a builtin", 2018-08-07) was turned on by
default in 5541bd5b8f ("rebase: default to using the builtin rebase",
2018-08-08), but had no documentation.
Let's document it so that users who run into any stability issues with
the C rewrite know there's an escape hatch[1], and make it clear that
needing to turn off builtin rebase means you've found a bug in git.

All config extensions are described in technical/repository-version.txt.
I made a mistake of adding it in config.txt instead. This patch moves
it back to where it belongs.
Since repository-version.txt is not part of officially generated
documents (it's not even part of DOC_HTML target), it's only visible
to developers who read plain .txt files. Let's include it in
gitrepository-layout.5 for more visibility. Some minor asciidoc fixes
are required in repository-version.txt to make this happen.

The command 'git ls-remote --sort=authordate <remote>' segfaults when
run outside of a repository, ever since the introduction of its
'--sort' option in 1fb20dfd8e (ls-remote: create '--sort' option,
2018-04-09).
While in general the 'git ls-remote' command can be run outside of a
repository just fine, its '--sort=<key>' option with certain keys does
require access to the referenced objects. This sorting is implemented
using the generic ref-filter sorting facility, which already handles
missing objects gracefully with the appropriate 'missing object
deadbeef for HEAD' message. However, being generic means that it
checks replace refs while trying to retrieve an object, and while
doing so it accesses the 'git_replace_ref_base' variable, which has
not been initialized and is still a NULL pointer when outside of a
repository, thus causing the segfault.
Make ref-filter more careful upfront while parsing the format string,
and make it error out when encountering a format atom requiring object
access when we are not in a repository. Also add a test to ensure
that 'git ls-remote --sort' fails gracefully when executed outside of
a repository.

It is a good idea to error out early upon seeing, say, `-Cbad`, rather
than starting the rebase only to have the `--am` backend complain later.
Let's do this.
The only options accepting parameters which we pass through to `git am`
(which may, or may not, forward them to `git apply`) are `-C` and
`--whitespace`. The other options we pass through do not accept
parameters, so we do not have to validate them here.

Currently, we parse the options intended for `git am` as if we wanted to
handle them in `git rebase`, and then reconstruct them painstakingly to
define the `git_am_opt` variable.
However, there is a much better way (that I was unaware of, at the time
when I mentored Pratik to implement these options): OPT_PASSTHRU_ARGV.
It is intended for exactly this use case, where command-line options
want to be parsed into a separate `argv_array`.
Let's use this feature.
Incidentally, this also allows us to address a bug discovered by Phillip
Wood, where the built-in rebase failed to understand that the `-C`
option takes an optional argument.

Make the behavior when diff options (e.g. "--stat") are passed
consistent with how "diff" behaves.
Before 73a834e9e2 ("range-diff: relieve callers of low-level
configuration burden", 2018-07-22) running range-diff with "--stat"
would produce stat output and the diff output, as opposed to how
"diff" behaves where once "--stat" is specified "--patch" also needs
to be provided to emit the patch output.
As noted in a previous change ("range-diff doc: add a section about
output stability", 2018-11-07) the "--stat" output with "range-diff"
is useless at the moment.
But we should behave consistently with "diff" in anticipation of such
output being useful in the future, because it would make for confusing
UI if "diff" and "range-diff" behaved differently when it came to how
they interpret diff options.
The new behavior is also consistent with the existing documentation
added in ba931edd28 ("range-diff: populate the man page",
2018-08-13). See "[...]also accepts the regular diff options[...]" in
git-range-diff(1).

The Win32 CONDITION_VARIABLE has better performance and is easier to
maintain, as the code is a lot shorter now (the semantics of the
CONDITION_VARIABLE matches the pthread_cond_t very well).
Note: CONDITION_VARIABLE is not available in Windows XP and below,
but the declared minimal Windows version required to build and run
Git for Windows is Windows Vista (which is also beyond its
end-of-life, but for less long than Windows XP), so that's okay.
