2020-10-20Documentation: clarify and expand description of --signoffLibravatar Bradley M. Kuhn1-6/+10
Building on past documentation improvements in b2c150d3aa (Expand documentation describing --signoff, 2016-01-05), further clarify that any project using Git may and often does set its own policy. However, leave intact reference to the Linux DCO, which Git also uses. It is reasonable for Git to advocate for its own Signed-off-by methodology in its documentation, as long as the documentation remains respectful that YMMV and other projects may well have very different contributor representations tied to Signed-off-by.

2020-10-20doc: preparatory clean-up of description on the sign-off optionLibravatar Junio C Hamano3-18/+17
Almost identical text on the signed-off-by trailer appears in the documentation for "git commit" and "git merge" and its friends. Introduce a new signoff-option.txt file to be shared. A couple of things of note are: - The short-form "-s" is available only in "git commit", but not in commands that are friends of "git merge", as it is used as a short-hand for "--strategy". - The original lacks description on the negated "--no-signoff" form on "git commit" side, but it equally is applicable. It however was unclear in the original text that not adding a Signed-off-by trailer is the default, so rephrase to explain it as a way to countermand a --signoff option that appeared earlier on the same command line. This is in preparation to apply a further clarification on what exactly the Signed-off-by trailer means.

2020-10-08ci: do not skip tagged revisions in GitHub workflowsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+2
When `master` is tagged, and then both `master` and the tag are pushed, Travis CI will happily build both. That is a waste of energy, which is why we skip the build for `master` in that case. Our GitHub workflow is also triggered by tags. However, the run would fail because the `windows-test` jobs are _not_ skipped on tags, but the `windows-build` job _is skipped (and therefore fails to upload the build artifacts needed by the test jobs). In addition, we just added logic to our GitHub workflow that will skip runs altogether if there is already a successful run for the same commit or at least for the same tree. Let's just change the GitHub workflow to no longer specifically skip tagged revisions.

2020-10-08ci: skip GitHub workflow runs for already-tested commits/treesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+38
When pushing a commit that has already passed a CI or PR build successfully, it makes sense to save some energy and time and skip the new build. Let's teach our GitHub workflow to do that. For good measure, we also compare the tree ID, which is what we actually test (the commit ID might have changed due to a reworded commit message, which should not affect the outcome of the run).

2020-10-08tests: avoid using the branch name `main`Libravatar Johannes Schindelin4-16/+16
In the near future, we want to change Git's default branch name to `main`. In preparation for that, stop using it as a branch name in the test suite.

2020-10-08t1415: avoid using `main` as ref nameLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-9/+9
In preparation for a patch series that will change the fall-back for `init.defaultBranch` to `main`, let's not use `main` as ref name in this test script. Otherwise, the `git for-each-ref ... | grep main` which wants to catch those refs would also unexpectedly catch `refs/heads/main`. Since the refs in question are worktree-local ones (i.e. each worktree has their own, just like `HEAD`), and since the test case already uses a secondary worktree called "second", let's use the name "first" for those refs instead. While at it, adjust the test titles that talk about a "repo" when they meant a "worktree" instead.

2020-10-07help: do not expect built-in commands to be hardlinkedLibravatar Johannes Schindelin3-0/+22
When building with SKIP_DASHED_BUILT_INS=YesPlease, the built-in commands are no longer present in the `PATH` as hardlinks to `git`. As a consequence, `load_command_list()` needs to be taught to find the names of the built-in commands from elsewhere. This only affected the output of `git --list-cmds=main`, but not the output of `git help -a` because the latter includes the built-in commands by virtue of them being listed in command-list.txt. The bug was detected via a patch series that turns the merge strategies included in Git into built-in commands: `git merge -s help` relies on `load_command_list()` to determine the list of available merge strategies.

2020-10-07index-pack: drop type_cas mutexLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+0
The type_cas lock lost all of its callers in f08cbf60fe (index-pack: make quantum of work smaller, 2020-09-08), so we can safely delete it. The compiler didn't alert us that the variable became unused, because we still call pthread_mutex_init() and pthread_mutex_destroy() on it. It's worth considering also whether that commit was in error to remove the use of the lock. Why don't we need it now, if we did before, as described in ab791dd138 (index-pack: fix race condition with duplicate bases, 2014-08-29)? I think the answer is that we now look at and assign the child_obj->real_type field in the main thread while holding the work_lock(). So we don't have to worry about racing with the worker threads.

2020-10-07index-pack: restore "resolving deltas" progress meterLibravatar Jeff King2-0/+11
Commit f08cbf60fe (index-pack: make quantum of work smaller, 2020-09-08) refactored the main loop in threaded_second_pass(), but also deleted the call to display_progress() at the top of the loop. This means that users typically see no progress at all during the delta resolution phase (and for large repositories, Git appears to hang). This looks like an accident that was unrelated to the intended change of that commit, since we continue to update nr_resolved_deltas in resolve_delta(). Let's restore the call to get that progress back. We'll also add a test that confirms we generate the expected progress. This isn't perfect, as it wouldn't catch a bug where progress was delayed to the end. That was probably possible to trigger when receiving a thin pack, because we'd eventually call display_progress() from fix_unresolved_deltas(), but only once after doing all the work. However, since our test case generates a complete pack, it reliably demonstrates this particular bug and its fix. And we can't do better without making the test racy.

2020-10-07GitHub workflow: automatically follow minor updates of setup-msbuildLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
It is the custom to follow minor updates of GitHub Actions automatically, by using the suffix `@v1`. Actions' maintainers will then update that `v1` ref to point to the newest. However, for `microsoft/setup-msbuild`, 889cacb6897 (ci: configure GitHub Actions for CI/PR, 2020-04-11) uses a very specific `@v1.0.0` suffix. In this instance, that is a problem: should `setup-msbuild` release a new version that intends to fix a critical bug, we won't know it, and we won't use it. Such a scenario is not theoretical. It is happening right now: https://github.blog/changelog/2020-10-01-github-actions-deprecating-set-env-and-add-path-commands Let's simplify our setup, allowing us to benefit from automatically using the newest v1.x.

2020-10-06t5534: split stdout and stderr redirectionLibravatar Đoàn Trần Công Danh1-4/+3
On atomic pushing failure with GnuPG, we expect a very specific output in stdout due to `--porcelain` switch. On such failure, we also write down some helpful hint into stderr in order to help user understand what happens and how to continue from those failures. On a lot of system, those hint (in stderr) will be flushed first, then those messages in stdout will be flushed. In such systems, the current test code is fine as is. However, we don't have such guarantee, (at least) there're some real systems that writes those stream interleaved. On such systems, we may see the stderr stream written in the middle of stdout stream. Let's split those stream redirection. By splitting those stream, the output stream will contain exactly what we want to compare, thus, saving us a "sed" invocation. While we're at it, change the `test_i18ncmp` to `test_cmp` because we will never translate those messages (because of `--porcelain`).
