When commit subjects or authors have non-ASCII characters, git
format-patch Q-encodes them so they can be safely sent over email.
However, if the patch transfer method is something other than email (web
review tools, sneakernet), this only serves to make the patch metadata
harder to read without first applying it (unless you can decode RFC 2047
in your head). git am as well as some email software supports
non-Q-encoded mail as described in RFC 6531.
Add --[no-]encode-email-headers and format.encodeEmailHeaders to let the
user control this behavior.

"git format-patch" can take a set of configured format.notes values
to specify which notes refs to use in the log message part of the
output. The behaviour of this was not consistent with multiple
--notes command line options, which has been corrected.
* dl/format-patch-notes-config-fixup:
notes.h: fix typos in comment
notes: break set_display_notes() into smaller functions
config/format.txt: clarify behavior of multiple format.notes
format-patch: move git_config() before repo_init_revisions()
format-patch: use --notes behavior for format.notes
notes: extract logic into set_display_notes()
notes: create init_display_notes() helper
notes: rename to load_display_notes()

When we had multiple `format.notes` config values where we had `<ref1>`,
`false`, `<ref2>` (in that order), then we would print out the notes for
both `<ref1>` and `<ref2>`. This doesn't make sense, however, since we
parse the config in a top-down manner and a `false` should be able to
override previous configurations, just like how `--no-notes` will
override previous `--notes`.
Duplicate the logic that handles the `--[no-]notes[=]` option to
`format.notes` for consistency. As a result, when parsing the config
from top to bottom, `format.notes = true` will behave like `--notes`,
`format.notes = <ref>` will behave like `--notes=<ref>` and
`format.notes = false` will behave like `--no-notes`.
This change isn't strictly backwards compatible but since it is an edge
case where a sane user would not mix notes refs with `false` and this
feature is relatively new (released only in v2.23.0), this change should
be harmless.

Before, when format-patch generated a cover letter, only the body would
be populated with a branch's description while the subject would be
populated with placeholder text. However, users may want to have the
subject of their cover letter automatically populated in the same way.
Teach format-patch to accept the `--cover-from-description` option and
corresponding `format.coverFromDescription` config, allowing users to
populate different parts of the cover letter (including the subject
now).

In 6bd26f58ea (t4014: use test_line_count() where possible, 2019-08-27),
we converted many test cases to take advantage of the test_line_count()
function. In one conversion, we inverted the expected and actual value
as tested by test_line_count(). Although functionally correct, if
format-patch ever produced incorrect output, the debugging output would
be a bunch of hashes which would be difficult to debug.
Invert the expected and actual values provided to test_line_count() so
that if format-patch produces incorrect output, the debugging output
will be a list of human-readable files instead.

Currently, there are two ways where the return codes of Git commands are
lost. The first way is when a command is in the upstream of a pipe. In a
pipe, only the return code of the last command is used. Thus, all other
commands will have their return codes masked. Rewrite pipes so that
there are no Git commands upstream.
The other way is when a command is in a non-assignment subshell. The
return code will be lost in favour of the surrounding command's. Rewrite
instances of this such that Git commands output to a file and
surrounding commands only call subshells with non-Git commands.

In git-format-patch, notes can be appended with the `--notes` option.
However, this must be specified by the user on an
invocation-by-invocation basis. If a user is not careful, it's possible
that they may forget to include it and generate a patch series without
notes.
Teach git-format-patch the `format.notes` config option. Its value is a
notes ref that will be automatically appended. The special value of
"standard" can be used to specify the standard notes. This option is
overridable with the `--no-notes` option in case a user wishes not to
append notes.

I tried out 'git format-patch --base' with a set of commits that
modifies more than one file. It turns out that the way this command is
implemented it actually uses the unstable version of patch-id instead of
the stable version that's documented. When I tried to modify the
existing test to use 'git patch-id --stable' vs. 'git patch-id
--unstable' I found that it didn't matter, the test still passed.
Let's expand on the test here so it is a little more complicated and
then use that to show that the patch-id generation is actually unstable
vs. stable. Update the documentation as well.

When submitting a revised version of a patch or series, it can be
helpful (to reviewers) to include a summary of changes since the
previous attempt in the form of an interdiff, typically in the cover
letter. However, it is occasionally useful, despite making for a noisy
read, to insert an interdiff into the commentary section of the lone
patch of a 1-patch series.
Therefore, extend "git format-patch --interdiff=<prev>" to insert an
interdiff into the commentary section of a lone patch rather than
requiring a cover letter. The interdiff is indented to avoid confusing
git-am and human readers into considering it part of the patch proper.
Implementation note: Generating an interdiff for insertion into the
commentary section of a patch which itself is currently being generated
requires invoking the diffing machinery recursively. However, the
machinery does not (presently) support this since it uses global state.
Consequently, we need to take care to stash away the state of the
in-progress operation while generating the interdiff, and restore it
after.

When submitting a revised version of a patch series, it can be helpful
(to reviewers) to include a summary of changes since the previous
attempt in the form of an interdiff, however, doing so involves manually
copy/pasting the diff into the cover letter.
Add an --interdiff option to automate this process. The argument to
--interdiff specifies the tip of the previous attempt against which to
generate the interdiff. For example:
git format-patch --cover-letter --interdiff=v1 -3 v2
The previous attempt and the patch series being formatted must share a
common base.

cases.

Any text below the "-- " for the email signature gets treated as part of
the signature, and many mail clients will trim it from the quoted text
for a reply. Move it above the signature, so people can reply to it
more easily.
Similarly, when producing the patch as a MIME attachment, the
original code placed the base info after the attached part, which
would be discarded. Move the base info to the end of the part,
still inside the part boundary.
Add tests for the exact format of the email signature, and add tests

boundary when producing a MIME attachment.

This output format prevents format-patch output from breaking
readers if somebody copy+pasted an mbox into a commit message.
Unlike the traditional "mboxo" format, "mboxrd" is designed to
be fully-reversible. "mboxrd" also gracefully degrades to
showing extra ">" in existing "mboxo" readers.
This degradation is preferable to breaking message splitting
completely, a problem I've seen in "mboxcl" due to having
multiple, non-existent, or inaccurate Content-Length headers.
"mboxcl2" is a non-starter since it's inherits the problems
of "mboxcl" while being completely incompatible with existing
tooling based around mailsplit.

The one-shot environment variable syntax:
FOO=BAR some-program
is unportable when some-program is actually a shell
function, like test_must_fail (on some shells FOO remains
set after the function returns, and on others it does not).
We sometimes get around this by using env, like:
test_must_fail env FOO=BAR some-program
But that only works because test_must_fail's arguments are
themselves a command which can be run. You can't run:
env FOO=BAR test_must_fail some-program
because env does not know about our shell functions. So
there is no equivalent for test_commit, for example, and one
must resort to:
(
FOO=BAR
export FOO
test_commit
)
which is a bit verbose. Let's add a version of "env" that
works _inside_ the shell, by creating a subshell, exporting
variables from its argument list, and running the command.
Its use is demonstrated on a currently-unportable case in
t4014.
