This allows a natural user-interface when looking for any change in the
code, not just regression. For example:
git bisect start --term-old fast --term-new slow
git bisect fast
git bisect slow
...
There were several proposed user-interfaces for this feature. This patch
implements it as options to 'git bisect start' for the following reasons:
* By construction, the terms will be valid for one and only one
bisection.
* Unlike positional arguments, using named options avoid having to
remember an order.
* We can combine user-defined terms and passing old/new commits as
argument to "git bisect start".
* The implementation is relatively simple.

When not looking for a regression during a bisect but for a fix or a
change in another given property, it can be confusing to use 'good'
and 'bad'.
This patch introduce `git bisect new` and `git bisect old` as an
alternative to 'bad' and good': the commits which have a certain
property must be marked as `new` and the ones which do not as `old`.
The output will be the first commit after the change in the property.
During a new/old bisect session you cannot use bad/good commands and
vice-versa.
Some commands are still not available for old/new:
* git rev-list --bisect does not treat the revs/bisect/new and
revs/bisect/old-SHA1 files.

We can get rid of a lot of hand-rolled error messages by
using test_must_fail and test_expect_code. The existing code
was careful to use "|| return 1" when breaking the
&&-chain, but it did fool --chain-lint; the new code is more
idiomatic.
We also add some uses of test_when_finished, which is less
cryptic and more robust than putting code at the end of a
test. In two cases we run "git bisect reset" from a
subshell, which is a problem for test_when_finished (it
would not run). However, in both of these cases, we are
performing the tests in one-off sub-repos, so we do not need
to clean up at all (and in fact it is nicer not to if the
user wants to inspect the trash directory after a failure).

* cc/maint-bisect-paths:
bisect: error out when passing bad path parameters
|
|
As reported by Mark Lodato, "git bisect", when it was started with
path parameters that match no commit was kind of working without
taking account of path parameters and was reporting something like:
Bisecting: -1 revisions left to test after this (roughly 0 steps)
It is more correct and safer to just error out in this case, before
displaying the revisions left, so this patch does just that.
Note that this bug is very old, it exists at least since v1.5.5.
And it is possible to detect that case earlier in the bisect
algorithm, but it is not clear that it would be an improvement to
error out earlier, on the contrary it may change the behavior of
"git rev-list --bisect-all" for example, which is currently correct.

Using a PRNG (pseudo random number generator) with a bias should be better
than alternating between 3 fixed ratios.
In repositories with many untestable commits it should prevent alternating
between areas where many commits are untestable. The bias should favor
commits that can give more information, so that the bisection process
should not loose much efficiency.
HPA suggested to use a PRNG and found that the best bias is to raise a
ratio between 0 and 1 given by the PRNG to the power 1.5.
An integer square root function is implemented to avoid including
<math.h> and linking with -lm.
A PRNG function is implemented to get the same number sequence on
different machines as suggested by "man 3 rand".

We must save the pending commits that will be used during revision
walking and unparse them after, because we want to leave a clean
state for the next revision walking that will try to find the best
bisection point.
As we don't fork a process anymore to call "git rev-list", we need

* cc/maint-1.6.0-bisect-fix:
bisect: fix quoting TRIED revs when "bad" commit is also "skip"ped
Conflicts:
git-bisect.sh
|
|
When the "bad" commit was also "skip"ped and when more than one
commit was skipped, the "filter_skipped" function would have
printed something like:
bisect_rev=<hash1>|<hash2>
(where <hash1> and <hash2> are hexadecimal sha1 hashes)
and this would have been evaled later as piping "bisect_rev=<hash1>"
into "<hash2>", which would have failed.
So this patch makes the "filter_skipped" function properly quote
what it outputs, so that it will print something like:
bisect_rev='<hash1>|<hash2>'
which will be properly evaled later. The caller was not stopping
properly because the scriptlet this function returned to be evaled
was not strung together with && and because of this, an error in
an earlier part of the output was simply ignored.
A test case is added to the test suite.
And while at it, we also initialize the VARS, FOUND and TRIED
variables, so that we protect ourselves from environment variables
the user may have with these names.

The patch that allows "git bisect skip" to be passed a range of
commits using the "<commit1>..<commit2>" notation is flawed because
it introduces a regression when it was passed a simple rev or commit.
"git bisect skip <commit>" doesn't work any more, because <commit>
is quoted but not properly unquoted.
This patch fixes that and add tests cases to better check when it is
passed commits and range of commits.
While at it, this patch also properly quotes the non range arguments
using the "sq" function.

When one good revision is not an ancestor of the bad revision, the
merge bases between the good and the bad revision should be checked
to make sure that they are also good revisions.
A previous patch takes care of that, but it may check the merge bases
more often than really needed. In fact the previous patch did not try
to optimize this as much as possible because it is not so simple. So
this is the purpose of this patch.
One may think that when all the merge bases have been checked then
we can save a flag, so that we don't need to check the merge bases
again during the bisect process.
The problem is that the user may choose to checkout and test
something completely different from what the bisect process
suggested. In this case we have to check the merge bases again,
because there may be new merge bases relevant to the bisect
process.
That's why, in this patch, when we detect that the user tested
something else than what the bisect process suggested, we remove
the flag that says that we don't need to check the merge bases
again.

Before this patch, "git bisect", when it was given some good revs that
are not ancestor of the bad rev, didn't check if the merge bases were
good. "git bisect" just supposed that the user knew what he was doing,
and that, when he said the revs were good, he knew that it meant that
all the revs in the history leading to the good revs were also
considered good.
But in pratice, the user may not know that a good rev is not an
ancestor of the bad rev, or he may not know/remember that all revs
leading to the good rev will be considered good. So he may give a good
rev that is a sibling, instead of an ancestor, of the bad rev, when in
fact there can be one rev becoming good in the branch of the good rev
(because the bug was already fixed there, for example) instead of one
rev becoming bad in the branch of the bad rev.
For example, if there is the following history:
A--B--C--D
\
E--F
and we launch "git bisect start D F" then only C and D would have been
considered as possible first bad commit before this patch. This could
invite user errors; F could be the commit that fixes the bug that exists
everywhere else.
The purpose of this patch is to detect when "git bisect" is passed
some good revs that are not ancestors of the bad rev, and then to first
ask the user to test the merge bases between the good and bad revs.
If the merge bases are good then all is fine, we can continue
bisecting. Otherwise, if one merge base is bad, it means that the
assumption that all revs leading to the good one are good too is
wrong and we error out. In the case where one merge base is skipped we
issue a warning and then continue bisecting anyway.
These checks will also catch the case where good and bad have been
mistaken. This means that we can remove the check that was done latter
on the output of "git rev-list --bisect-vars".

When "git bisect" was first written, it was not possible to
checkout a detached HEAD. The detached feature appeared latter.
That's why before this patch the "git bisect" process used a
"bisect" branch to checkout new revisions to be tested (and also
a "new-bisect" one to check if the checkouts could work).
This patch makes "git bisect" checkout revisions to be tested on
a detached HEAD. This simplifies the code a bit.
The tests to check that "git bisect" does not start if a
"bisect" or a "new-bisect" branch exists are removed as they
are not relevant any more.

With this patch we trap all errors that can happen when writing the
new state and when we are in "bisect_next". So that we can try to
clean up everything in case of problems, using "bisect_clean_state".

If a branch named "bisect" or "new-bisect" already was created in the
repo by other means than git bisect, doing a git bisect used to override
the branch without a warning. Now if the branch "bisect" or

git bisect start fails with an appropriate error message. Additionally,
if checking out a new bisect state fails due to a merge problem, git
bisect cleans up the temporary branch "new-bisect".

Before this patch, when "git bisect start", "git bisect good" or
"git bisect skip" were called with many revisions, they could fail
after having already marked some revisions as "good", "bad" or
"skip".
This could be especilally bad for "git bisect start" because as
the file ".git/BISECT_NAMES" would not have been written, there
would have been no attempt to clear the marked revisions on a
"git bisect reset". That's because if there is no
".git/BISECT_NAMES" file, nothing is done to clean things up, as
the bisect session is not supposed to have started.
While at it, let's also create the ".git/BISECT_START" file, only
after ".git/BISECT_NAMES" as been created.
