Another brown paper bag inconsistency fix for a new feature
introduced during this cycle.
* dl/stash-show-untracked-fixup:
stash show: use stash.showIncludeUntracked even when diff options given
|
|
If options pertaining to how the diff is displayed is provided to
`git stash show`, the command will ignore the stash.showIncludeUntracked
configuration variable, defaulting to not showing any untracked files.
This is unintuitive behaviour since the format of the diff output and
whether or not to display untracked files are orthogonal.
Use stash.showIncludeUntracked even when diff options are given. Of
course, this is still overridable via the command-line options.
Update the documentation to explicitly say which configuration variables
will be overridden when a diff options are given.

The current documentation for color.pager is technically correct, but
slightly misleading and doesn't really clarify the purpose of the
variable. As explained in the original thread which added it:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/E1G6zPH-00062L-Je@moooo.ath.cx/
the point is to deal with pagers that don't understand colors. And hence it
being set to "true" is necessary for colorizing output to the pager, but
not sufficient by itself (you must also have enabled one of the other
color options, though note that these are set to "auto" by default these
days).

Sometimes new people are confused by how a revision "range" works,
in that it is not a random collection of commits but a set of
commits that are all connected to each other, and most Git commands
work on a single such "range".
Give an example to clarify it.

The way the command line specified by the trailer.<token>.command

In previous changes, we've turned on warning for quoted CR in base64 or
quoted-printable email messages. Some projects see those quoted CR a lot,
they know that it happens most of the time, and they find it's desirable
to always strip those CR.
Those projects in question usually fall back to use other tools to handle
patches when receive such patches.
Let's help those projects handle those patches by stripping those
excessive CR.

Currently, the packfile negotiation step within a Git fetch cannot be
done independent of sending the packfile, even though there is at least
one application wherein this is useful. Therefore, make it possible for
this negotiation step to be done independently. A subsequent commit will
use this for one such application - push negotiation.
This feature is for protocol v2 only. (An implementation for protocol v0
would require a separate implementation in the fetch, transport, and
transport helper code.)
In the protocol, the main hindrance towards independent negotiation is
that the server can unilaterally decide to send the packfile. This is
solved by a "wait-for-done" argument: the server will then wait for the
client to say "done". In practice, the client will never say it; instead
it will cease requests once it is satisfied.
In the client, the main change lies in the transport and transport
helper code. fetch_refs_via_pack() performs everything needed - protocol
version and capability checks, and the negotiation itself.
There are 2 code paths that do not go through fetch_refs_via_pack() that
needed to be individually excluded: the bundle transport (excluded
through requiring smart_options, which the bundle transport doesn't
support) and transport helpers that do not support takeover. If or when
we support independent negotiation for protocol v0, we will need to
modify these 2 code paths to support it. But for now, report failure if
independent negotiation is requested in these cases.

The `trailer.<token>.command` configuration variable
specifies a command (run via the shell, so it does not have
to be a single name or path to the command, but can be a
shell script), and the first occurrence of substring $ARG is
replaced with the value given to the `interpret-trailer`
command for the token in a '--trailer <token>=<value>' argument.
This has three downsides:
* The use of $ARG in the mechanism misleads the users that
the value is passed in the shell variable, and tempt them
to use $ARG more than once, but that would not work, as
the second and subsequent $ARG are not replaced.
* Because $ARG is textually replaced without regard to the
shell language syntax, even '$ARG' (inside a single-quote
pair), which a user would expect to stay intact, would be
replaced, and worse, if the value had an unmatched single
quote (imagine a name like "O'Connor", substituted into
NAME='$ARG' to make it NAME='O'Connor'), it would result in
a broken command that is not syntactically correct (or
worse).
* The first occurrence of substring `$ARG` will be replaced
with the empty string, in the command when the command is
first called to add a trailer with the specified <token>.
This is a bad design, the nature of automatic execution
causes it to add a trailer that we don't expect.
Introduce a new `trailer.<token>.cmd` configuration that
takes higher precedence to deprecate and eventually remove
`trailer.<token>.command`, which passes the value as an
argument to the command. Instead of "$ARG", users can
refer to the value as positional argument, $1, in their
scripts. At the same time, in order to allow
`git interpret-trailers` to better simulate the behavior
of `git command -s`, 'trailer.<token>.cmd' will not
automatically execute.

We stopped allowing symlinks for .gitmodules files in 10ecfa7649
(verify_path: disallow symlinks in .gitmodules, 2018-05-04), and we
stopped following symlinks for .gitattributes, .gitignore, and .mailmap
in the commits from 204333b015 (Merge branch 'jk/open-dotgitx-with-nofollow',
2021-03-22). The reasons are discussed in detail there, but we never
adjusted the documentation to let users know.
This hasn't been a big deal since the point is that such setups were
mildly broken and thought to be unusual anyway. But it certainly doesn't
hurt to be clear and explicit about it.

Format-patch doesn't have a way to format merges in a way that can be
applied by git-am (or any other tool), and so it just omits them.
However, this may be a surprising implication for users who are not well
versed in how the tool works. Let's add a note to the documentation
making this more clear.
