We no longer use AsciiDoc7 syntax in our documentation and favor a
more modern style.
* jk/no-more-asciidoc7:
docs: drop antique comment from Makefile
docs: drop asciidoc7compatible flag
|

We used to always default to "man" format even on platforms where
"man" viewer is not widely available.
* vr/help-per-platform:
help: use HTML as the default help format on Windows
|
|
When 'git help $cmd' is run without a format option (e.g. -w), the
'man' format is always used. On some platforms, however, manual page
viewers are not often available.
Introduce DEFAULT_HELP_FORMAT make variable in order to allow the
default format configurable at compile time, and set it to HTML when
compiling on Windows (but not Cygwin).

This is basically a fancy way of saying "git/$GIT_VERSION",
except that it is overridable at build-time and through the
environment. Which means that people who don't want to
advertise their git version (for privacy or security
reasons) can tweak it.

A minor compilation fix.

Makefile: add missing GIT-VERSION-FILE dependency

In 20fc9bc (Set HTTP user agent to git/GIT_VERSION, 2006-04-04),
http.o started recording GIT_VERSION, but http.o wasn't added
to the list of files that depends on GIT-VERSION-FILE.

When we made the switch to supporting asciidoc 8 in 4c7100a
(Documentation: adjust to AsciiDoc 8, 2007-06-14), we were
able to leave most of the documentation intact by defining
asciidoc7compatible.
Since commit 6cf378f (docs: stop using asciidoc no-inline-literal,
2012-04-26), we don't support versions of asciidoc older
than 8.4.1, which is when inline literals were introduced.
Therefore there is not much point in keeping our
documentation compatible with asciidoc 7.
So we are now free to drop the asciidoc7compatible flag and
update the documentation itself to assume asciidoc8.
Fortunately, doing the latter is very easy; we weren't using
any of the constructs impacted by asciidoc7compatible, so
there are no changes to make.
The reason is somewhat subtle. The asciidoc7compatible
affects only super/sub-scripts ("^" and "~") and index
terms. We don't use the latter at all. Nor we do we use the
former, but we did have to protect them from accidental
expansion in constructs like "rev^1". However, all of our
uses of "~" and "^" are either in code blocks (which are
rendered literally), or inside backticks. Prior to 6cf378f,
backticks were not inline literals, and needed proper
quoting. But post-6cf378f, we don't have to worry whether we
are using the old or new rules, as those characters are not
interpreted at all in either case.
I verified that the result of "make install-html
install-man" is identical before and after this patch on
asciidoc 8.6.7.

Your build platform may support hardlinks but you may prefer not to use
them, e.g. when installing to DESTDIR to make a tarball and untarring on
a filesystem that has poor support for hardlinks.
The Makefile in git-gui project may need to learn to honor the same
setting; it unconditionally creates git-citool by hardlinking git-gui.

This puts delta resolving on each base on a separate thread, one base
cache per thread. Per-thread data is grouped in struct thread_local.
When running with nr_threads == 1, no pthreads calls are made. The

Your filesystem may support hardlinks, but you may choose not to use them
when installing git-foo builtins and favor symblic links or copies for

A column option string consists of many token separated by either
a space or a comma. A token belongs to one of three groups:
- enabling: always, never and auto
- layout mode: currently plain (which does not layout at all)
- other future tuning flags
git-column can be used to pipe output to from a command that wants
column layout, but not to mess with its own output code. Simpler output
code can be changed to use column layout code directly.

Document the default pager and editor chosen at compile time in the
git-var(1) manpage so users curious about what command _this_ copy of
git will fall back to when EDITOR, VISUAL, and PAGER are unset can
find the answer quickly.
In builds leaving those settings uncustomized, this patch makes the
manpage continue to say "usually vi" and "usually less" so the
formatted documentation is usable for a wide audience including users
of custom builds that change those settings. If you would like your
copy of the docs to be less noncommittal, you will need to set
DEFAULT_PAGER=less and DEFAULT_EDITOR=vi explicitly.

Redo the hashing loop in xdl_hash_record in a way that loads an entire
'long' at a time, using masking tricks to see when and where we found
the terminating '\n'.
I stole inspiration and code from the posts by Linus Torvalds around
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/2/452
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/5/6
His method reads the buffers in sizeof(long) increments, and may thus
overrun it by at most sizeof(long)-1 bytes before it sees the final
newline (or hits the buffer length check). I considered padding out
all buffers by a suitable amount to "catch" the overrun, but
* this does not work for mmap()'d buffers: if you map 4096+8 bytes
from a 4096 byte file, accessing the last 8 bytes results in a
SIGBUS on my machine; and
* it would also be extremely ugly because it intrudes deep into the
unpacking machinery.
So I adapted it to not read beyond the buffer at all. Instead, it
reads the final partial word byte-by-byte and strings it together.
Then it can use the same logic as before to finish the hashing.
So far we enable this only on x86_64, where it provides nice speedup
for diff-related work:
Test origin/next tr/xdiff-fast-hash
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4000.1: log -3000 (baseline) 0.07(0.05+0.02) 0.08(0.06+0.02) +14.3%
4000.2: log --raw -3000 (tree-only) 0.37(0.33+0.04) 0.37(0.32+0.04) +0.0%
4000.3: log -p -3000 (Myers) 1.75(1.65+0.09) 1.60(1.49+0.10) -8.6%
4000.4: log -p -3000 --histogram 1.73(1.62+0.09) 1.58(1.49+0.08) -8.7%
4000.5: log -p -3000 --patience 2.11(2.00+0.10) 1.94(1.80+0.11) -8.1%
Perhaps other platforms could also benefit. However it does NOT work
on big-endian systems!

During the testing of the 1.7.10 rc series on Solaris for OpenCSW, it
was discovered that t7006-pager was failing due to finding a bad "sh"
in PATH after a call to execvp("sh", ...). This call was setup by
run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmd.
The PATH in use at the time saw /opt/csw/bin given precedence to
traditional Solaris paths such as /usr/bin and /usr/xpg4/bin. A
package named schilyutils (Joerg Schilling's utilities) was installed
on the build system and it delivered a modified version of the
traditional Solaris /usr/bin/sh as /opt/csw/bin/sh. This version of
sh suffers from many of the same problems as /usr/bin/sh.
The command-specific pager test failed due to the broken "sh" handling
^ as a pipe character. It tried to fork two processes when it
encountered "sed s/^/foo:/" as the pager command. This problem was
entirely dependent on the PATH of the user at runtime.
Possible fixes for this issue are:
1. Use the standard system() or popen() which both launch a POSIX
shell on Solaris as long as _POSIX_SOURCE is defined.
2. The git wrapper could prepend SANE_TOOL_PATH to PATH thus forcing
all unqualified commands run to use the known good tools on the
system.
3. The run_command.c:prepare_shell_command() could use the same
SHELL_PATH that is in the #! line of all all scripts and not rely
on PATH to find the sh to run.
Option 1 would preclude opening a bidirectional pipe to a filter
script and would also break git for Windows as cmd.exe is spawned from
system() (cf. v1.7.5-rc0~144^2, "alias: use run_command api to execute
aliases, 2011-01-07).
Option 2 is not friendly to users as it would negate their ability to
use tools of their choice in many cases. Alternately, injecting
SANE_TOOL_PATH such that it takes precedence over /bin and /usr/bin
(and anything with lower precedence than those paths) as
git-sh-setup.sh does would not solve the problem either as the user
environment could still allow a bad sh to be found. (Many OpenCSW
users will have /opt/csw/bin leading their PATH and some subset would
have schilyutils installed.)
Option 3 allows us to use a known good shell while still honouring the
users' PATH for the utilities being run. Thus, it solves the problem
while not negatively impacting either users or git's ability to run
external commands in convenient ways. Essentially, the shell is a
special case of tool that should not rely on SANE_TOOL_PATH and must
be called explicitly.
With this patch applied, any code path leading to
run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmd can count on using the same sane shell
that all shell scripts in the git suite use. Both the build system
and run_command.c will default this shell to /bin/sh unless
overridden.

Previously it was not possible to iterate revisions twice using the
revision walking api. We add a reset_revision_walk() which clears the
used flags. This allows us to do multiple sequencial revision walks.
We add the appropriate calls to the existing submodule machinery doing
revision walks. This is done to avoid surprises if future code wants to
call these functions more than once during the processes lifetime.

This introduces a performance testing framework under t/perf/. It
tries to be as close to the test-lib.sh infrastructure as possible,
and thus should be easy to get used to for git developers.
The following points were considered for the implementation:
1. You usually want to compare arbitrary revisions/build trees against
each other. They may not have the performance test under
consideration, or even the perf-lib.sh infrastructure.
To cope with this, the 'run' script lets you specify arbitrary
build dirs and revisions. It even automatically builds the revisions
if it doesn't have them at hand yet.
2. Usually you would not want to run all tests. It would take too
long anyway. The 'run' script lets you specify which tests to run;
or you can also do it manually. There is a Makefile for
discoverability and 'make clean', but it is not meant for
real-world use.
3. Creating test repos from scratch in every test is extremely
time-consuming, and shipping or downloading such large/weird repos
is out of the question.
We leave this decision to the user. Two different sizes of test
repos can be configured, and the scripts just copy one or more of
those (using hardlinks for the object store). By default it tries
to use the build tree's git.git repository.
This is fairly fast and versatile. Using a copy instead of a clone
preserves many properties that the user may want to test for, such
as lots of loose objects, unpacked refs, etc.

Ever since the very first commit to git.git we've been setting CC to
"gcc". Presumably this is behavior that Linus copied from the Linux
Makefile.
However unlike Linux Git is written in ANSI C and supports a multitude
of compilers, including Clang, Sun Studio, xlc etc. On my Linux box
"cc" is a symlink to clang, and on a Solaris box I have access to "cc"
is Sun Studio's CC.
Both of these are perfectly capable of compiling Git, and it's
annoying to have to specify CC=cc on the command-line when compiling
Git when that's the default behavior of most other portable programs.
So change the default to "cc". Users who want to compile with GCC can
still add "CC=gcc" to the make(1) command-line, but those users who
don't have GCC as their "cc" will see expected behavior, and as a
bonus we'll be more likely to smoke out new compilation warnings from
our distributors since they'll me using a more varied set of compilers
by default.

On some systems, the function locale_charset() may not be exported from
libiconv but is available from libcharset, and we need -lcharset when

Introduce a make variable CHARSET_LIB that can be set to -lcharsetlib
on such systems. Also autodetect this in the configure script by first
looking for the symbol in libiconv, and then libcharset.
