The "git stash" command insists on having a usable user identity to
the same degree as the "git commit-tree" and "git commit" commands
do, because it uses the same codepath that creates commit objects
as these commands.
It is not strictly necesary to do so. Check if we will barf before
creating commit objects and then supply fake identity to please the
machinery that creates commits.
Add test to document that stash executes correctly both with and
without valid ident.
This is not that much of usability improvement, as the users who run
"git stash" would eventually want to record their changes that are
temporarily stored in the stashes in a more permanent history by
committing, and they must do "git config user.{name,email}" at that
point anyway, so arguably this change is only delaying a step that
is necessary to work in the repository.

"git stash push -u -- <pathspec>" gave an unnecessary and confusing
error message when there was no tracked files that match the
<pathspec>, which has been fixed.

Since 833622a945 ("stash push: avoid printing errors", 2018-03-19) we
don't use the 'git clean' call for the pathspec case anymore. The
commit however forgot to remove the pathspec argument to the call.
Remove the superfluos argument to make the code a little more obvious.

When introducing the stash push feature, and thus allowing users to pass
in a pathspec to limit the files that would get stashed in
df6bba0937 ("stash: teach 'push' (and 'create_stash') to honor
pathspec", 2017-02-28), this developer missed one place where the
pathspec should be passed in.
Namely in the call to the 'untracked_files()' function in the
'no_changes()' function. This resulted in 'git stash push -u --
<non-existant>' creating an empty stash when there are untracked files
in the repository other that don't match the pathspec.
As 'git stash' never creates empty stashes, this behaviour is wrong and
confusing for users. Instead it should just show a message "No local
changes to save", and not create a stash.
Luckily the 'untracked_files()' function already correctly respects
pathspecs that are passed to it, so the fix is simply to pass the
pathspec along to the function.

'git stash push -u -- <pathspec>' prints the following errors if
<pathspec> only matches untracked files:
fatal: pathspec 'untracked' did not match any files
error: unrecognized input
This is because we first clean up the untracked files using 'git clean
<pathspec>', and then use a command chain involving 'git add -u
<pathspec>' and 'git apply' to clear the changes to files that are in
the index and were stashed.
As the <pathspec> only includes untracked files that were already
removed by 'git clean', the 'git add' call will barf, and so will 'git
apply', as there are no changes that need to be applied.
Fix this by avoiding the 'git clean' if a pathspec is given, and use the
pipeline that's used for pathspec mode to get rid of the untracked files
as well.

"git stash -- <pathspec>" incorrectly blew away untracked files in
the directory that matched the pathspec, which has been corrected.
* tg/stash-with-pathspec-fix:
stash: don't delete untracked files that match pathspec
|
|
Currently when 'git stash push -- <pathspec>' is used, untracked files
that match the pathspec will be deleted, even though they do not end up
in a stash anywhere.
This is because the original commit introducing the pathspec feature in
git stash push (df6bba0937 ("stash: teach 'push' (and 'create_stash') to
honor pathspec", 2017-02-28)) used the sequence of 'git reset <pathspec>
&& git ls-files --modified <pathspec> | git checkout-index && git clean
<pathspec>'.
The intention was to emulate what 'git reset --hard -- <pathspec>' would
do. The call to 'git clean' was supposed to clean up the files that
were unstaged by 'git reset'. This would work fine if the pathspec
doesn't match any files that were untracked before 'git stash push --
<pathspec>'. However if <pathspec> matches a file that was untracked
before invoking the 'stash' command, all untracked files matching the
pathspec would inadvertently be deleted as well, even though they
wouldn't end up in the stash, and are therefore lost.
This behaviour was never what was intended, only blobs that also end up
in the stash should be reset to their state in HEAD, previously
untracked files should be left alone.
To achieve this, first match what's in the index and what's in the
working tree by adding all changes to the index, ask diff-index what
changed between HEAD and the current index, and then apply that patch in
reverse to get rid of the changes, which includes removal of added
files and resurrection of removed files.

does and my fingers have learned this pattern long ago for `commit`.

With the 'git stash save' interface, it was easily possible for users to
try to add a message which would start with "-", which 'git stash save'
would interpret as a command line argument, and fail. For this case we
added some extra help on how to create a stash with a message starting
with "-".
For 'stash push', messages are passed with the -m flag, avoiding this
potential pitfall. Now only pathspecs starting with "-" would have to
be distinguished from command line parameters by using
"-- --<pathspec>". This is fairly common in the git command line
interface, and we don't try to guess what the users wanted in the other
cases.
Because this way of passing pathspecs is quite common in other git
commands, and we don't provide any extra help there, do the same in the
error message for 'git stash push'.

are still keeping "git stash save" around for the time being, it's better

bash 4.4 or newer gave a warning on NUL byte in command
substitution done in "git stash"; this has been squelched.
* kd/stash-with-bash-4.4:
stash: prevent warning about null bytes in input
|

"git stash -u" used the contents of the committed version of the

* nm/stash-untracked:

|

The `no_changes` function calls the `untracked_files` function through
command substitution. `untracked_files` will return null bytes because it
runs ls-files with the '-z' option.
Bash since version 4.4 warns about these null bytes. As they are not
required for the test that is being done, make sure `untracked_files`
does not output null bytes when not required.
This is achieved by adding a parameter to the `untracked_files` function to
specify wither `-z` should be passed to ls-files or not.
This warning is triggered when running git stash save -u resulting in
two warnings:

If calling git stash -u on a repo that contains a file that is not
ignored any more due to a current modification of the gitignore file,
this file is stashed but not remove from the working tree.
This is due to git-stash first doing a reset --hard which clears the
.gitignore file modification and the call git clean, leaving the file
untouched.
This causes git stash pop to fail due to the file existing.
This patch simply switches the order between cleaning and resetting
and adds a test for this usecase.

The `git stash push` command recently gained the ability to get a
pathspec as its argument to only stash matching files. Calling this
command from a subdirectory does not work, though, as one of the first
things we do is changing to the top level directory without keeping
track of the prefix from which the command is being run.
Fix the shortcoming by storing the prefix previous to the call to
`cd_to_toplevel` and then subsequently using `git rev-parse --prefix` to
correctly resolve the pathspec. Add a test to catch future breakage of
this usecase.

git stash push uses other git commands internally. Currently it only
passes the -q flag to those if the -q flag is passed to git stash. when
using 'git stash push -p -q --no-keep-index', it doesn't even pass the
flag on to the internal reset at all.
It really is enough for the user to know that the stash is created,
without bothering them with the internal details of what's happening.
Always pass the -q flag to the internal git clean and git reset
commands, to avoid unnecessary and potentially confusing output.

While working on a repository, it's often helpful to stash the changes
of a single or multiple files, and leave others alone. Unfortunately
git currently offers no such option. git stash -p can be used to work

over multiple files.

When diff.renames configuration is on (and with Git 2.9 and later,
it is enabled by default, which made it worse), "git stash"
misbehaved if a file is removed and another file with a very
similar content is added.
* jk/stash-disable-renames-internally:
stash: prefer plumbing over git-diff
|
|
When creating a stash, we need to look at the diff between
the working tree and HEAD, and do so using the git-diff
porcelain. Because git-diff enables porcelain config like
renames by default, this causes at least one problem. The
--name-only format will not mention the source side of a
rename, meaning we will fail to stash a deletion that is
part of a rename.
We could fix that case by passing --no-renames, but this is
a symptom of a larger problem. We should be using the
diff-index plumbing here, which does not have renames
enabled by default, and also does not respect any
potentially confusing config options.

Instead of referencing "stash@{n}" explicitly, make it possible to
simply reference as "n". Most users only reference stashes by their
position in the stash stack (what I refer to as the "index" here).
The syntax for the typical stash (stash@{n}) is slightly annoying and
easy to forget, and sometimes difficult to escape properly in a
script. Because of this the capability to do things with the stash by
simply referencing the index is desirable.
This patch includes the superior implementation provided by Øsse Walle
(thanks for that), with a slight change to fix a broken test in the test
suite. I also merged the test scripts as suggested by Jeff King, and
un-wrapped the documentation as suggested by Junio Hamano.

In shell code like:
test -z $foo
test -n $foo
that does not quote its arguments, it's easy to think that
it is actually looking at the contents of $foo in each case.
But if $foo is empty, then "test" does not see any argument
at all! The results are quite subtle.
POSIX specifies that test's behavior depends on the number
of arguments it sees, and if $foo is empty, it sees only
one. The behavior in this case is:
1 argument: Exit true (0) if $1 is not null; otherwise,
exit false.
So in the "-z $foo" case, if $foo is empty, then we check
that "-z" is non-null, and it returns success. Which happens
to match what we expected. But for "-n $foo", if $foo is
empty, we'll see that "-n" is non-null and still return
success. That's the opposite of what we intended!
Furthermore, if $foo contains whitespace, we'll end up with
more than 2 arguments. The results in this case are
generally unspecified (unless the first part of $foo happens
to be a valid binary operator, in which case the results are
specified but certainly not what we intended).
And on top of this, even though "test -z $foo" _should_ work
for the empty case, some older shells (reportedly ksh88)
complain about the missing argument.
So let's make sure we consistently quote our variable
arguments to "test". After this patch, the results of:
git grep 'test -[zn] [^"]'
are empty.

A hotfix for the topic already in 'master'.
* jk/stash-require-clean-index:
Revert "stash: require a clean index to apply"
|
|
This reverts commit ed178ef13a26136d86ff4e33bb7b1afb5033f908.
That commit was an attempt to improve the safety of applying
a stash, because the application process may create
conflicted index entries, after which it is hard to restore
the original index state.
Unfortunately, this hurts some common workflows around "git
stash -k", like:
git add -p ;# (1) stage set of proposed changes
git stash -k ;# (2) get rid of everything else
make test ;# (3) make sure proposal is reasonable
git stash apply ;# (4) restore original working tree
If you "git commit" between steps (3) and (4), then this
just works. However, if these steps are part of a pre-commit
hook, you don't have that opportunity (you have to restore
the original state regardless of whether the tests passed or
failed).
It's possible that we could provide better tools for this
sort of workflow. In particular, even before ed178ef, it
could fail with a conflict if there were conflicting hunks
in the working tree and index (since the "stash -k" puts the
index version into the working tree, and we then attempt to
apply the differences between HEAD and the old working tree
on top of that). But the fact remains that people have been
using it happily for a while, and the safety provided by
ed178ef is simply not that great. Let's revert it for now.
In the long run, people can work on improving stash for this
sort of workflow, but the safety tradeoff is not worth it in
the meantime.

The option parser for git-stash stuffs unknown flags into
the $FLAGS variable, where they can be accessed by the
individual commands. However, most commands do not even look
at these extra flags, leading to unexpected results like
this:
$ git stash drop --help
Dropped refs/stash@{0} (e6cf6d80faf92bb7828f7b60c47fc61c03bd30a1)
We should notice the extra flags and bail. Rather than
annotate each command to reject a non-empty $FLAGS variable,
we can notice that "stash show" is the only command that
actually _wants_ arbitrary flags. So we switch the default
mode to reject unknown flags, and let stash_show() opt into
the feature.

"git stash pop/apply" forgot to make sure that not just the working

If you have staged contents in your index and run "stash
apply", we may hit a conflict and put new entries into the
index. Recovering to your original state is difficult at
that point, because tools like "git reset --keep" will blow
away anything staged. We can make this safer by refusing to
apply when there are staged changes.
It's possible we could provide better tooling here, as "git
stash apply" should be writing only conflicts to the index
(so we know that any stage-0 entries are potentially
precious). But it is the odd duck; most "mergy" commands
will update the index for cleanly merged entries, and it is
not worth updating our tooling to support this use case
which is unlikely to be of interest (besides which, we would
still need to block a dirty index for "stash apply --index",
since that case _would_ be ambiguous).
