Allows requests to fetch objects at any tip of refs (including
hidden ones). It seems that there may be use cases even outside
Gerrit (e.g. $gmane/215701).
* jc/fetch-raw-sha1:
fetch: fetch objects by their exact SHA-1 object names
upload-pack: optionally allow fetching from the tips of hidden refs
fetch: use struct ref to represent refs to be fetched
parse_fetch_refspec(): clarify the codeflow a bit

Allow the server side to redact the refs/ namespace it shows to the
client.
Will merge to 'master'.
* jc/hidden-refs:

Teach "git fetch" to accept an exact SHA-1 object name the user may
obtain out of band on the LHS of a pathspec, and send it on a "want"
message when the server side advertises the allow-tip-sha1-in-want
capability.

A repository may have refs that are only used for its internal
bookkeeping purposes that should not be exposed to the others that
come over the network.
Teach upload-pack to omit some refs from its initial advertisement
by paying attention to the uploadpack.hiderefs multi-valued
configuration variable. Do the same to receive-pack via the
receive.hiderefs variable. As a convenient short-hand, allow using
transfer.hiderefs to set the value to both of these variables.
Any ref that is under the hierarchies listed on the value of these
variable is excluded from responses to requests made by "ls-remote",
"fetch", etc. (for upload-pack) and "push" (for receive-pack).
Because these hidden refs do not count as OUR_REF, an attempt to
fetch objects at the tip of them will be rejected, and because these
refs do not get advertised, "git push :" will not see local branches
that have the same name as them as "matching" ones to be sent.
An attempt to update/delete these hidden refs with an explicit
refspec, e.g. "git push origin :refs/hidden/22", is rejected. This
is not a new restriction. To the pusher, it would appear that there
is no such ref, so its push request will conclude with "Now that I
sent you all the data, it is time for you to update the refs. I saw
that the ref did not exist when I started pushing, and I want the
result to point at this commit". The receiving end will apply the
compare-and-swap rule to this request and rejects the push with
"Well, your update request conflicts with somebody else; I see there
is such a ref.", which is the right thing to do. Otherwise a push to
a hidden ref will always be "the last one wins", which is not a good
default.

When pushing to update a branch with a commit that is not a
descendant of the commit at the tip, a wrong message "already
exists" was given, instead of the correct "non-fast-forward", if we
do not have the object sitting in the destination repository at the
tip of the ref we are updating.
The primary cause of the bug is that the check in a new helper
function is_forwardable() assumed both old and new objects are
available and can be checked, which is not always the case.
The way the caller uses the result of this function is also wrong.
If the helper says "we do not want to let this push go through", the
caller unconditionally translates it into "we blocked it because the
destination already exists", which is not true at all in this case.
Fix this by doing these three things:
* Remove unnecessary not_forwardable from "struct ref"; it is only
used inside set_ref_status_for_push();
* Make "refs/tags/" the only hierarchy that cannot be replaced
without --force;
* Remove the misguided attempt to force that everything that
updates an existing ref has to be a commit outside "refs/tags/"
hierarchy.
The policy last one tried to implement may later be resurrected and
extended to ensure fast-forwardness (defined as "not losing
objects", extending from the traditional "not losing commits from
the resulting history") when objects that are not commit are
involved (e.g. an annotated tag in hierarchies outside refs/tags),
but such a logic belongs to "is this a fast-forward?" check that is
done by ref_newer(); is_forwardable(), which is now removed, was not
the right place to do so.

Do not allow fast-forwarding of references that point to a tag object.
Updating from a tag is potentially destructive since it would likely
leave the tag dangling. Disallowing updates to a tag also makes sense
semantically and is consistent with the behavior of lightweight tags.

References are allowed to update from one commit-ish to another if the
former is an ancestor of the latter. This behavior is oriented to
branches which are expected to move with commits. Tag references are
expected to be static in a repository, though, thus an update to
something under refs/tags/ should be rejected unless the update is
forced.

When pushing groups of refs to a remote, there is no simple way to remove
old refs that still exist at the remote that is no longer updated from us.
This will allow us to remove such refs from the remote.
With this change, running this command
$ git push --prune remote refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/laptop/*
removes refs/remotes/laptop/foo from the remote if we do not have branch
"foo" locally anymore.

When a push specifies deletion of non-existent refs, the post post-receive and
post-update hooks receive them as input/arguments.
For instance, for the following push, where refs/heads/nonexistent is a ref
which does not exist on the remote side:
git push origin :refs/heads/nonexistent
the post-receive hook receives from standard input:
<null-sha1> SP <null-sha1> SP refs/heads/nonexistent
and the post-update hook receives as arguments:
refs/heads/nonexistent
which does not make sense since it is a no-op.
Teach receive-pack not to pass non-existent refs to the post-receive and
post-update hooks. If the push only attempts to delete non-existent refs,
these hooks are not even called.
The update and pre-receive hooks are still notified about attempted
deletion of non-existent refs to give them a chance to inspect the
situation and act on it.

Fix the problem where the cmd->err passed into start_command wasn't

On Windows, this problem would be triggered if mingw_spawnvpe()

(e.g. a text file that didn't start with a #! line). If cmd->err was
a pipe, the failure to close it could result in a hang while the other

trying to shove the output into the side band. On msysGit, this

When pushing to a remote repo the sending side filters out aliased
updates (e.g., foo:baz bar:baz). However, it is not possible for the
sender to know if two refs are aliased on the receiving side via
symrefs. Here is one such scenario:
$ git init origin
$ (cd origin && touch file && git add file && git commit -a -m intial)
$ git clone --bare origin origin.git
$ rm -rf origin
$ git clone origin.git client
$ git clone --mirror client backup.git &&
$ (cd backup.git && git remote set-head origin --auto)
$ (cd client &&
git remote add --mirror backup ../backup.git &&
echo change1 > file && git commit -a -m change1 &&
git push origin &&
git push backup
)
The push to backup fails with:
Counting objects: 5, done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 244 bytes, done.
Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
Unpacking objects: 100% (3/3), done.
error: Ref refs/remotes/origin/master is at ef3... but expected 262...
remote: error: failed to lock refs/remotes/origin/master
To ../backup.git
262cd57..ef307ff master -> master
262cd57..ef307ff origin/HEAD -> origin/HEAD
! [remote rejected] origin/master -> origin/master (failed to lock)
error: failed to push some refs to '../backup.git'
The reason is that refs/remotes/origin/HEAD is a symref to
refs/remotes/origin/master, but it is not possible for the sending side
to unambiguously know this.
This commit fixes the issue by having receive-pack ignore any update to
a symref whose target is being identically updated. If a symref and its
target are being updated inconsistently, then the update for both fails
with an error message ("refusing inconsistent update...") to help
diagnose the situation.

This makes git-push refuse pushing into a non-bare repository to update
the current branch by default. To help people who are used to be able to
do this (and later "reset --hard" it in some other way), an error message
is issued when this refusal is triggered, instructing how to resurrect the
old behaviour.
Hosting sites that do not give the users direct access to customize their
repositories (e.g. repo.or.cz, gitorious, github etc.) may further want to
explicitly set the configuration variable to "refuse" for their customers'

Pushing into the currently checked out branch of a non-bare
repository can be dangerous; the HEAD then loses sync with
the index and working tree, and it looks in the receiving
repo as if the pushed changes have been reverted in the
index (since they were never there in the first place).
This patch adds a safety valve that checks for this
condition and either generates a warning or denies the
update. We trigger the check only on a non-bare repository,
since a bare repo does not have a working tree (and in fact,
pushing to the HEAD branch is a common workflow for
publishing repositories).
The behavior is configurable via receive.denyCurrentBranch,
defaulting to "warn" so as not to break existing setups
(though it may, after a deprecation period, switch to
"refuse" by default). For users who know what they are doing
and want to silence the warning (e.g., because they have a
post-receive hook that reconciles the HEAD and working
tree), they can turn off the warning by setting it to false
or "ignore".

t5516 sets up some utility functions for starting each test
with a clean slate. However, there were a few tests added
that do not use these functions, but instead make their own
repositories.
Let's bring these in line with the rest of the tests. Not
only do we reduce the number of lines, but these tests will
benefit from any further enhancements to the utility
scripts.
The conversion is pretty straightforward. Most of the tests
created a parent/child clone relationship, for which we now
use 'testrepo' as the parent. One test looked in testrepo,
but relied on previous tests to have set it up; it now sets
up testrepo explicitly, which makes it a bit more robust to
changes in the script, as well.

* pb/push:
add special "matching refs" refspec
|

This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at
fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other
shell metacharacters.
The majority of git svn tests used the idiom
test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo"
These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes:
test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"'
which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is.
One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the
value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no
longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw
* expecting success:
test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo
but now it is:

Previously, a push like:
git push remote src:dst
would go through the following steps:
1. check for an unambiguous 'dst' on the remote; if it
exists, then push to that ref
2. otherwise, check if 'dst' begins with 'refs/'; if it
does, create a new ref
3. otherwise, complain because we don't know where in the
refs hierarchy to put 'dst'
However, in some cases, we can guess about the ref type of
'dst' based on the ref type of 'src'. Specifically, before
complaining we now check:
2.5. if 'src' resolves to a ref starting with refs/heads
or refs/tags, then prepend that to 'dst'
So now this creates a new branch on the remote, whereas it
previously failed with an error message:
git push master:newbranch
Note that, by design, we limit this DWIM behavior only to
source refs which resolve exactly (including symrefs which
resolve to existing refs). We still complain on a partial
destination refspec if the source is a raw sha1, or a ref
expression such as 'master~10'.

This allows users with different preferences for access methods to the

Then, if you give git a URL like:

it will act like you gave it:

When pushing a refspec like "HEAD", we used to treat it as
"HEAD:HEAD", which didn't work without rewriting. Instead, we should
resolve the ref. If it's a symref, further require it to point to a
branch, to avoid doing anything especially unexpected. Also remove the
rewriting previously added in builtin-push.
Since the code for "HEAD" uses the regular refspec parsing, it
automatically handles "+HEAD" without anything special.

Occasionally, in some setups (*cough* forks on repo.or.cz *cough*) some
refs go stale, e.g. when the forkee rebased and lost some objects needed
by the fork. The quick & dirty way to deal with those refs is to delete
them and push them again.
However, git-push first would first fetch the current commit name for the
ref, would receive a null sha1 since the ref does not point to a valid
object, then tell receive-pack that it should delete the ref with this
commit name. delete_ref() would be subsequently be called, and check that
resolve_ref() (which does _not_ check for validity of the object) returns
the same commit name. Which would fail.
The proper fix is to avoid corrupting repositories, but in the meantime
this is a good fix in any case.
Incidentally, some instances of "cd .." in the test cases were fixed, so
that subsequent test cases run in t/trash/ irrespective of the outcome of
the previous test cases.

This commit changes the rules for resolving refspecs to match the
rules for resolving refs in rev-parse. git-rev-parse uses clear rules
to resolve a short ref to its full name, which are well documented.
The rules for resolving refspecs documented in git-send-pack were
less strict and harder to understand. This commit replaces them by
the rules of git-rev-parse.
The unified rules are easier to understand and better resolve ambiguous
cases. You can now push from a repository containing several branches
ending on the same short name.
Note, this may break existing setups. For example, "master" will no longer
resolve to "origin/master" even when there is no other "master" elsewhere.

The default behaviour of git-push is potentially confusing
for new users, since it will push changes that are not on
the current branch. Publishing patches that were still
cooking on a development branch is hard to undo.
It would also be nice to be able to verify the expansion
of refspecs if you've edited them, so that you know
what branches matched on the server.
Adding a --dry-run flag allows the user to experiment
safely and learn how to use git-push properly. Originally
