2019-05-19documentation: add anchors to MyFirstContributionLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-0/+35
During the course of review for MyFirstContribution.txt, the suggestion came up to include anchors to make it easier for veteran contributors to link specific sections of this documents to newbies. To make life easier for reviewers, add these anchors in their own commit. See review context here: https://public-inbox.org/git/20190507195938.GD220818@google.com/ AsciiDoc does not support :sectanchors: and the anchors are not discoverable, but they are referenceable. So a link to "foo.com/MyFirstContribution.html#prerequisites" will still work if that file was generated with AsciiDoc. The inclusion of :sectanchors: does not create warnings or errors while compiling directly with `asciidoc -b html5 Documentation/MyFirstContribution.txt` or while compiling with `make doc`. AsciiDoctor does support :sectanchors: and displays a paragraph link on mouseover. When the anchor is included above or inline with a section (as in this change), the link provided points to the custom ID contained within [[]] instead of to an autogenerated ID. Practically speaking, this means we have .../MyFirstContribution.html#summary instead of .../MyFirstContribution.html#_summary. In addition to being prettier, the custom IDs also enable anchor linking to work with asciidoc-generated pages. This change compiles with no warnings using `asciidoctor -b html5 Documentation/MyFirstContribution.txt`.

2019-05-19documentation: add tutorial for first contributionLibravatar Emily Shaffer2-0/+1075
This tutorial covers how to add a new command to Git and, in the process, everything from cloning git/git to getting reviewed on the mailing list. It's meant for new contributors to go through interactively, learning the techniques generally used by the git/git development community.

2019-03-24t5551: mark half-auth no-op fetch test as v0-onlyLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-1/+11
When using protocol v0, upload-pack over HTTP permits a "half-auth" configuration in which, at the web server layer, the info/refs path is not protected by authentication but the git-upload-pack path is, so that a user can perform fetches that do not download any objects without authentication, but still needs authentication to download objects. But protocol v2 does not support this, because both ref and pack are obtained from the git-upload-pack path. Mark the test verifying this behavior as protocol v0-only, with a description of what needs to be done to make v2 support this.

2019-03-24http: use normalize_curl_result() instead of manual conversionLibravatar Jeff King1-11/+2
When we switched off CURLOPT_FAILONERROR in 17966c0a63 (http: avoid disconnecting on 404s for loose objects, 2016-07-11), the fetch_object() function started manually handling 404's. Since we now have normalize_curl_result() for use elsewhere, we can use it here as well, shortening the code. Note that we lose the check for http/https in the URL here. None of the other result-normalizing code paths bother with this. Looking at missing_target(), which checks specifically for an FTP-specific CURLcode and "http" code 550, it seems likely that git-over-ftp has been subtly broken since 17966c0a63. This patch does nothing to fix that, but nor should it make anything worse (in fact, it may be slightly better because we'll actually recognize an error as such, rather than assuming CURLE_OK means we actually got some data).

2019-03-24http: normalize curl results for dumb loose and alternates fetchesLibravatar Jeff King2-0/+24
If the dumb-http walker encounters a 404 when fetching a loose object, it then looks at any http-alternates for the object. The 404 check is implemented by missing_target(), which checks not only the http code, but also that we got an http error from the CURLcode. That broke when we stopped using CURLOPT_FAILONERROR in 17966c0a63 (http: avoid disconnecting on 404s for loose objects, 2016-07-11), since our CURLcode will now be CURLE_OK. As a result, fetching over dumb-http from a repository with alternates could result in Git printing "Unable to find abcd1234..." and aborting. We could probably fix this just by loosening missing_target(). However, there's other code which looks at the curl result, and it would have to be tweaked as well. Instead, let's just normalize the result the same way the smart-http code does. There's a similar case in processing the alternates (where we failover from "info/http-alternates" to "info/alternates"). We'll give it the same treatment. After this patch, we should be hitting all code paths that need this normalization (notably absent here is the http_pack_request path, but it does not use FAILONERROR, nor missing_target()).

2019-03-24http: factor out curl result code normalizationLibravatar Jeff King2-6/+21
We make some requests with CURLOPT_FAILONERROR and some without, and then handle_curl_result() normalizes any failures to a uniform CURLcode. There are some other code paths in the dumb-http walker which don't use handle_curl_result(); let's pull the normalization into its own function so it can be reused. Arguably those code paths would benefit from the rest of handle_curl_result(), notably the auth handling. But retro-fitting it now would be a lot of work, and in practice it doesn't matter too much (whatever authentication we needed to make the initial contact with the server is generally sufficient for the rest of the dumb-http requests).
