Start discouraging the use of "git filter-branch".
* en/filter-branch-deprecation:
t9902: use a non-deprecated command for testing
Recommend git-filter-repo instead of git-filter-branch
t6006: simplify, fix, and optimize empty message test

t9902 had a list of three random porcelain commands as a sanity check,
one of which was filter-branch. Since we are recommending people not
use filter-branch, let's update this test to use rebase instead of
filter-branch.

Completing configuration sections and variable names for the stuck
argument of 'git clone --config=<TAB>' requires a bit of extra care
compared to doing the same for the unstuck argument of 'git clone
--config <TAB>', because we have to deal with that '--config=' being
part of the current word to be completed.
Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name_and_value()
and in turn to the __git_complete_config_variable_name() helper
functions to specify the current section/variable name to be
completed, so they can be used even when completing the stuck argument
of '--config='.
__git_complete_config_variable_value() already has such an option, and
thus no further changes were necessary to complete possible values
after 'git clone --config=section.name=<TAB>'.

'git config' expects a configuration variable's name and value in
separate options, so we complete values as they stand on their own on
the command line. 'git -c', however, expects them in a single option
joined by a '=' character, so we should be able to complete values
when they are following 'section.name=' in the same word.
Add new options to the __git_complete_config_variable_value() function
to allow callers to specify the current word to be completed and the
configuration variable whose value is to be completed, and use these
to complete possible values after 'git -c 'section.name=<TAB>'.

'git config' expects a configuration variable's name and value in
separate arguments, so we let the __gitcomp() helper append a space
character to each variable name by default, like we do for most other
things (--options, refs, paths, etc.). 'git -c', however, expects
them in a single option joined by a '=' character, i.e.
'section.name=value', so we should append a '=' character to each
fully completed variable name, but no space, so the user can continue
typing the value right away.
Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name() function to
allow callers to specify an alternate suffix to add, and use it to
append that '=' character to configuration variables. Update the
__gitcomp() helper function to not append a trailing space to any
completion words ending with a '=', not just to those option with a
stuck argument.

The number of configuration variables listed by the completion script
grew quite when we started to auto-generate it from the documentation
[1], so we now complete them in two steps: first we list only the
section names, then the rest [2]. To get the section names we simply
strip everything following the first dot in each variable name,
resulting in a lot of repeated section names, because most sections
contain more than one configuration variable. This is not a
correctness issue in practice, because Bash's completion facilities
remove all repetitions anyway, but these repetitions make testing a
bit harder.
Replace the small 'sed' script removing subsections and variable names
with an 'awk' script that does the same, and in addition removes any
repeated configuration sections as well (by first creating and filling
an associative array indexed by all encountered configuration
sections, and then iterating over this array and printing the indices,
i.e. the unique section names). This change makes the failing 'git
config - section' test in 't9902-completion.sh' pass.
Note that this changes the order of section names in the output, and
makes it downright undeterministic, but this is not an issue, because
Bash sorts them before presenting them to the user, and our completion
tests sort them as well before comparing with the expected output.
Yeah, it would be simpler and shorter to just append '| sort -u' to
that command, but that would incur the overhead of one more external
process and pipeline stage every time a user completes configuration
sections.

The next patches will change/refactor the way we complete
configuration variable names and values, so add a few tests to cover
the basics, namely the completion of matching configuration sections,
full variable names, and their values.
Note that the test checking the completion of configuration sections
is currently failing, though it's not a sign of an actual bug. If a
section contains multiple variables, then that section is currently
repeated as many times as the number of variables in there. This is
not a correctness issue in practice, because Bash's completion
facilities remove all repetitions anyway. Consequently, we could list
all those repeated sections in the expected output of this test as
well, but then it would have to be updated whenever a new
configuration variable is added to those sections. Instead, list each
matching configuration section only once, mark the test as failing for
now, and the next patch will update the completion script to avoid
those repetitions.

Change the GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON variable from being "non-empty?" to
being a more standard boolean variable.
Since it needed to be checked in both C code and shellscript (via test
-n) it was one of the remaining shellscript-like variables. Now that
we have "env--helper" we can change that.
There's a couple of tricky edge cases that arise because we're using
git_env_bool() early, and the config-reading "env--helper".
If GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON is set to an invalid value die_bad_number()
will die, but to do so it would usually call gettext(). Let's detect
the special case of GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON and always emit that
message in the C locale, lest we infinitely loop.
As seen in the updated tests in t0017-env-helper.sh there's also a
caveat related to "env--helper" needing to read the config for trace2
purposes.
Since the C_LOCALE_OUTPUT prerequisite is lazy and relies on
"env--helper" we could get invalid results if we failed to read the
config (e.g. because we'd loop on includes) when combined with
e.g. "test_i18ngrep" wanting to check with "env--helper" if
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON was true or not.
I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that a test similar to the one I
removed in the earlier "config tests: simplify include cycle test"
change in this series won't happen again, and testing for this
explicitly in "env--helper"'s own tests.
This change breaks existing uses of
e.g. GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease, which we've documented in
po/README and other places. As noted in [1] we might want to consider
also accepting "YesPlease" in "env--helper" as a special-case.
But as the lack of uproar over 6cdccfce1e ("i18n: make GETTEXT_POISON
a runtime option", 2018-11-08) demonstrates the audience for this
option is a really narrow set of git developers, who shouldn't have
much trouble modifying their test scripts, so I think it's better to
deal with that minor headache now and make all the relevant GIT_TEST_*
variables boolean in the same way than carry the "YesPlease"
special-case forward.

Commit 6532f3740b ("completion: allow to customize the completable
command list", 2018-05-20) tried to allow multiple space-separated
entries in completion.commands. To do this, it copies each parsed token
into a strbuf so that the result is NUL-terminated.
However, for tokens starting with "-", it accidentally passes the
original non-terminated string, meaning that only the final one worked.
Switch to using the strbuf.

With zsh, "git cmd path<TAB>" was completed to "git cmd path name"
when the completed path has a special character like SP in it,
without any attempt to keep "path name" a single filename. This
has been fixed to complete it to "git cmd path\ name" just like
Bash completion does.
* cy/zsh-completion-SP-in-path:

Currently 'git checkout' is defined as an overlay operation, which
means that if in 'git checkout <tree-ish> -- [<pathspec>]' we have an
entry in the index that matches <pathspec>, but that doesn't exist in
<tree-ish>, that entry will not be removed from the index or the
working tree.
Introduce a new --{,no-}overlay option, which allows using 'git
checkout' in non-overlay mode, thus removing files from the working
tree if they do not exist in <tree-ish> but match <pathspec>.
Note that 'git checkout -p <tree-ish> -- [<pathspec>]' already works
this way, so no changes are needed for the patch mode. We disallow
'git checkout --overlay -p' to avoid confusing users who would expect
to be able to force overlay mode in 'git checkout -p' this way.
Untracked files are not affected by this change, so 'git checkout
--no-overlay HEAD -- untracked' will not remove untracked from the
working tree. This is so e.g. 'git checkout --no-overlay HEAD -- dir/'
doesn't delete all untracked files in dir/, but rather just resets the
state of files that are known to git.

"git checkout frotz" (without any double-dash) avoids ambiguity by
making sure 'frotz' cannot be interpreted as a revision and as a
path at the same time. This safety has been updated to check also
a unique remote-tracking branch 'frotz' in a remote, when dwimming
to create a local branch 'frotz' out of a remote-tracking branch
'frotz' from a remote.

Let's say there are files named 'foo bar.txt', and 'abc def/test.txt' in
repository. When following commands trigger a completion:
git show HEAD:fo<Tab>
git show HEAD:ab<Tab>
The completion results in bash/zsh:
git show HEAD:foo bar.txt
git show HEAD:abc def/
Where the both of them have an unescaped space in paths, so they'll be
misread by git. All entries of git ls-tree either a filename or a
directory, so __gitcomp_file() is proper rather than __gitcomp_nl().
Note the commit f12785a3, which handles quoted paths properly. Like this
case, we should dequote $cur_ for ?*:* case. For example, let's say
there is untracked directory 'abc deg', then trigger a completion:
git show HEAD:abc\ de<Tab>
git show HEAD:'abc de<Tab>
git show HEAD:"abc de<Tab>
should uniquely complete 'abc def', but bash completes 'abc def' and
'abc deg' instead. In zsh, triggering a completion:
git show HEAD:abc\ def/<Tab>
should complete 'test.txt', but nothing comes. The both problems will be
resolved by dequoting paths.
__git_complete_revlist_file() passes arguments to __gitcomp_nl() where
the first one is a list something like:
abc def/Z
foo bar.txt Z
where Z is the mark of the EOL.
- The trailing space of blob in __git ls-tree | sed.
It makes the completion results become:
git show HEAD:foo\ bar.txt\ <CURSOR>
So git will try to find a file named 'foo bar.txt ' instead.
- The trailing slash of tree in __git ls-tree | sed.
It makes the completion results on zsh become:
git show HEAD:abc\ def/ <CURSOR>
So that the last space on command like should be removed on zsh to
complete filenames under 'abc def/'.

Some of the functions in our test library check that they were invoked
properly with conditions like this:
test "$#" = 2 ||
error "bug in the test script: not 2 parameters to test-expect-success"
If this particular condition is triggered, then 'error' will abort the
whole test script with a bold red error message [1] right away.
However, under certain circumstances the test script will be aborted
completely silently, namely if:
- a similar condition in a test helper function like
'test_line_count' is triggered,
- which is invoked from the test script's "main" shell [2],
- and the test script is run manually (i.e. './t1234-foo.sh' as
opposed to 'make t1234-foo.sh' or 'make test') [3]
- and without the '--verbose' option,
because the error message is printed from within 'test_eval_', where
standard output is redirected either to /dev/null or to a log file.
The only indication that something is wrong is that not all tests in
the script are executed and at the end of the test script's output
there is no "# passed all N tests" message, which are subtle and can
easily go unnoticed, as I had to experience myself.
Send these "bug in the test script" error messages directly to the
test scripts standard error and thus to the terminal, so those bugs
will be much harder to overlook. Instead of updating all ~20 such
'error' calls with a redirection, let's add a BUG() function to
'test-lib.sh', wrapping an 'error' call with the proper redirection
and also including the common prefix of those error messages, and
convert all those call sites [4] to use this new BUG() function
instead.
[1] That particular error message from 'test_expect_success' is
printed in color only when running with or without '--verbose';
with '--tee' or '--verbose-log' the error is printed without
color, but it is printed to the terminal nonetheless.
[2] If such a condition is triggered in a subshell of a test, then
'error' won't be able to abort the whole test script, but only the
subshell, which in turn causes the test to fail in the usual way,
indicating loudly and clearly that something is wrong.
[3] Well, 'error' aborts the test script the same way when run
manually or by 'make' or 'prove', but both 'make' and 'prove' pay
attention to the test script's exit status, and even a silently
aborted test script would then trigger those tools' usual
noticable error messages.
[4] Strictly speaking, not all those 'error' calls need that
redirection to send their output to the terminal, see e.g.
'test_expect_success' in the opening example, but I think it's
better to be consistent.

When checkout dwim is added in [1], it is restricted to only dwim when
certain conditions are met and fall back to default checkout behavior
otherwise. It turns out falling back could be confusing. One of the
conditions to turn
git checkout frotz
to
git checkout -b frotz origin/frotz
is that frotz must not exist as a file. But when the user comes to
expect "git checkout frotz" to create the branch "frotz" and there
happens to be a file named "frotz", git's silently reverting "frotz"
file content is not helping. This is reported in Git mailing list [2]
and even used as an example of "Git is bad" elsewhere [3].
We normally try to do the right thing, but when there are multiple
"right things" to do, it's best to leave it to the user to decide.
Check this case, ask the user to to disambiguate:
- "git checkout -- foo" will check out path "foo"
- "git checkout foo --" will dwim and create branch "foo" [4]
For users who do not want dwim, use --no-guess. It's useless in this
particular case because "git checkout --no-guess foo --" will just
fail. But it could be used by scripts.

Change the GETTEXT_POISON compile-time + runtime GIT_GETTEXT_POISON
test parameter to only be a GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=<non-empty?>
runtime parameter, to be consistent with other parameters documented
in "Running tests with special setups" in t/README.
When I added GETTEXT_POISON in bb946bba76 ("i18n: add GETTEXT_POISON
to simulate unfriendly translator", 2011-02-22) I was concerned with
ensuring that the _() function would get constant folded if NO_GETTEXT
was defined, and likewise that GETTEXT_POISON would be compiled out
unless it was defined.
But as the benchmark in my [1] shows doing a one-off runtime
getenv("GIT_TEST_[...]") is trivial, and since GETTEXT_POISON was
originally added the GIT_TEST_* env variables have become the common
idiom for turning on special test setups.
So change GETTEXT_POISON to work the same way. Now the
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease compile-time option is gone, and running the
tests with GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=[YesPlease|] can be toggled on/off
without recompiling.
This allows for conditionally amending tests to test with/without
poison, similar to what 859fdc0c3c ("commit-graph: define
GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH", 2018-08-29) did for GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH. Do
some of that, now we e.g. always run the t0205-gettext-poison.sh test.
I did enough there to remove the GETTEXT_POISON prerequisite, but its
inverse C_LOCALE_OUTPUT is still around, and surely some tests using
it can be converted to e.g. always set GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=.
Notes on the implementation:
* We still compile a dedicated GETTEXT_POISON build in Travis
CI. Perhaps this should be revisited and integrated into the
"linux-gcc" build, see ae59a4e44f ("travis: run tests with
GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX", 2018-01-07) for prior art in that area. Then
again maybe not, see [2].
* We now skip a test in t0000-basic.sh under
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease that wasn't skipped before. This
test relies on C locale output, but due to an edge case in how the
previous implementation of GETTEXT_POISON worked (reading it from
GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS) wasn't enabling poison correctly. Now it does,
and needs to be skipped.
* The getenv() function is not reentrant, so out of paranoia about
code of the form:
printf(_("%s"), getenv("some-env"));
call use_gettext_poison() in our early setup in git_setup_gettext()
so we populate the "poison_requested" variable in a codepath that's
won't suffer from that race condition.
* We error out in the Makefile if you're still saying
GETTEXT_POISON=YesPlease to prompt users to change their
invocation.
* We should not print out poisoned messages during the test
initialization itself to keep it more readable, so the test library
hides the variable if set in $GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON_ORIG during
setup. See [3].
See also [4] for more on the motivation behind this patch, and the
history of the GETTEXT_POISON facility.

A test prerequisite defined by various test scripts with slightly
different semantics has been consolidated into a single copy and
made into a lazily defined one.
* wc/make-funnynames-shared-lazy-prereq:
t: factor out FUNNYNAMES as shared lazy prereq
|
|
A fair number of tests need to check that the filesystem supports file
names including "funny" characters, like newline, tab, and double-quote.
Jonathan Nieder suggested that this be extracted into a lazy prereq in
the top-level `test-lib.sh`. This patch effects that change.
The FUNNYNAMES prereq now uniformly requires support for newlines, tabs,
and double-quotes in filenames. This very slightly decreases the power
of some tests, which might have run previously on a system that supports
(e.g.) newlines and tabs but not double-quotes, but now will not. This
seems to me like an acceptable tradeoff for consistency.
One test (`t/t9902-completion.sh`) defined FUNNYNAMES to further require
the separators \034 through \037, the test for which was implemented
using the Bash-specific $'\034' syntax. I've elected to leave this one
as is, renaming it to FUNNIERNAMES.
After this patch, `git grep 'test_\(set\|lazy\)_prereq.*FUNNYNAMES'` has
only one result.

Continuing with the idea to programmatically enumerate various
pieces of data required for command line completion, the codebase
has been taught to enumerate options prefixed with "--no-" to
negate them.
* nd/completion-negation:
completion: collapse extra --no-.. options
completion: suppress some -no- options
parse-options: option to let --git-completion-helper show negative form
|
|
The commands that make use of --git-completion-helper feature could
now produce a lot of --no-xxx options that a command can take. This in
many case could nearly double the amount of completable options, using
more screen estate and also harder to search for the wanted option.
This patch attempts to mitigate that by collapsing extra --no-
options, the ones that are added by --git-completion-helper and not in
original struct option arrays. The "--no-..." option will be displayed
in this case to hint about more options, e.g.
> ~/w/git $ git clone --
--bare --origin=
--branch= --progress
--checkout --quiet
--config= --recurse-submodules
--depth= --reference=
--dissociate --reference-if-able=
--filter= --separate-git-dir=
--hardlinks --shallow-exclude=
--ipv4 --shallow-since=
--ipv6 --shallow-submodules
--jobs= --shared
--local --single-branch
--mirror --tags
--no-... --template=
--no-checkout --upload-pack=
--no-hardlinks --verbose
--no-tags
and when you complete it with --no-<tab>, all negative options will be
presented:
> ~/w/git $ git clone --no-
--no-bare --no-quiet
--no-branch --no-recurse-submodules
--no-checkout --no-reference
--no-config --no-reference-if-able
--no-depth --no-separate-git-dir
--no-dissociate --no-shallow-exclude
--no-filter --no-shallow-since
--no-hardlinks --no-shallow-submodules
--no-ipv4 --no-shared
--no-ipv6 --no-single-branch
--no-jobs --no-tags
--no-local --no-template
--no-mirror --no-upload-pack
--no-origin --no-verbose
--no-progress
Corner case: to make sure that people will never accidentally complete
the fake option "--no-..." there must be one real --no- in the first
complete listing even if it's not from the original struct option.
PS. This could could be made simpler with ";&" to fall through from
"--no-*" block and share the code but ";&" is not available on bash-3

test scripts used to perform a `cd .git/refs/heads`.
As there are plans to implement other ref storage systems, let's
use '.git/objects' instead of '.git/refs/heads' as the "deep inside
the '.git' directory" path.
This makes it clear to readers that these tests do not depend on
which ref backend is used.
The internals of the loose refs backend are still tested in
t1400-update-ref.sh.

Most --no- options do have some use, even if rarely to negate some
option that's specified in an alias.
These options --no-ours and --no-theirs however have no clear
semantics. If I specify "--ours --no-theirs", the second will reset
writeout stage and is equivalent of "--no-ours --no-theirs" which is
not that easy to see. Drop them. You can either switch from --ours to
--theirs and back but you can never negate them.

When 7fb6aefd2a (Merge branch 'nd/parseopt-completion' - 2018-03-14)
is merged, the completion for negative form is left out because the
series is alread long and it could be done in a follow up series. This
is it.
--git-completion-helper now provides --no-xxx so that git-completion.bash
can drop the extra custom --no-xxx in the script. It adds a lot more
--no-xxx than what's current provided by the git-completion.bash
script. We'll trim that down later.

By providing aliases via --list-cmds=, we could simplify command
collection code in the script. We only issue one git command. Before
this patch that is "git config", after it's "git --list-cmds=". In
"git help" completion case we actually reduce one "git" process (for
getting guides) but that call was added in this series so it does not
really count.
A couple of bash functions are removed because they are not needed
anymore. __git_compute_all_commands() and $__git_all_commands stay
because they are still needed for completing pager.* config and
without "alias" group, the result is still cacheable.
There is a slight (good) change in _git_help() with this patch: before
"git help <tab>" shows external commands (as in _not_ part of git) as
well as part of $__git_all_commands. We have finer control over
command listing now and can exclude that because we can't provide a
man page for external commands anyway.

Instead of maintaining a separate list of command classification,
which often could go out of date, let's centralize the information
back in git.
While the function in git-completion.bash implies "list porcelain
commands", that's not exactly what it does. It gets all commands (aka
--list-cmds=main,others) then exclude certain non-porcelain ones. We
could almost recreate this list two lists list-mainporcelain and
others. The non-porcelain-but-included-anyway is added by the third
category list-complete.
Note that the current completion script incorrectly classifies
filter-branch as porcelain and t9902 tests this behavior. We keep it
this way in t9902 because this test does not really care which
particular command is porcelain or plumbing, they're just names.

The tests added in 2f271cd9cf (t9902-completion: add tests
demonstrating issues with quoted pathnames, 2018-05-08) and in
2ab6eab4fe (completion: improve handling quoted paths in 'git
ls-files's output, 2018-03-28) have a few shortcomings:
- All these tests use the 'test_completion' helper function, thus
they are exercising the whole completion machinery, although they
are only interested in how git-aware path completion, specifically
the __git_complete_index_file() function deals with unusual
characters in pathnames and on the command line.
- These tests can't satisfactorily test the case of pathnames
containing spaces, because 'test_completion' gets the words on the
command line as a single argument and it uses space as word
separator.
- Some of the tests are protected by different FUNNYNAMES_* prereqs
depending on whether they put backslashes and double quotes or
separator characters (FS, GS, RS, US) in pathnames, although a
filesystem not allowing one likely doesn't allow the others
either.
- One of the tests operates on paths containing '|' and '&'
characters without being protected by a FUNNYNAMES prereq, but
some filesystems (notably on Windows) don't allow these characters
in pathnames, either.
Replace these tests with basically equivalent, more focused tests that
call __git_complete_index_file() directly. Since this function only
looks at the current word to be completed, i.e. the $cur variable, we
can easily include pathnames containing spaces in the tests, so use
such pathnames instead of pathnames containing '|' and '&'. Finally,
use only a single FUNNYNAMES prereq for all kinds of special
characters.

If any pathname contains backslash, double quote, tab, newline, or any
control characters, 'git ls-files' and 'git diff-index' will enclose
that pathname in double quotes and escape those special characters
using C-style one-character escape sequences or \nnn octal values.
This prevents those files from being listed during git-aware path
completion, because due to the quoting they will never match the
current word to be completed.
Extend __git_index_files()'s 'awk' script to remove all that quoting
and escaping from unique path components, so even paths containing
(almost all) such special characters can be completed.
Paths containing newline characters are still an issue, though. We
use newlines as separator character when filling the COMPREPLY array,
so a path with one or more newline will end up split to two or more
elements in COMPREPLY, basically breaking completion. There is
nothing we can do about it without a significant performance hit, so
let's just ignore such paths for now. As far as paths with newlines
are concerned, this isn't any different from the previous behavior,
because those paths were always omitted, though in the past they were
omitted because due to the quoting they didn't match the current word
to be completed. Anyway, Bash's own filename completion (Meta-/) can
complete even those paths, if need be.
Note:
- We don't dequote path components right away as they are coming in,
because then we would have to dequote each directory name
repeatedly, as many times as it appears in the input, i.e. as many
times as the number of listed paths it contains. Instead, we
dequote them at the end, as we print unique path components.
- Even when a directory name itself does not contain any special
characters, it will still be quoted if any of its trailing path
components do. If a directory contains paths both with and
without special characters, then the name of that directory will
appear both quoted and unquoted in the output of 'git ls-files'
and 'git diff-index'. Consequently, we will add such a directory
name to the deduplicating associative array twice: once quoted and
once unquoted.
This means that we have to be careful after dequoting a directory
name, and only print it if we haven't seen the same directory name
unquoted.
- It would be wonderful if we could just pass '-z' to those git
commands to output \0-separated unquoted paths, and use \0 as
record separator in the 'awk' script processing their output...
this patch would be so much simpler, almost trivial even.
Unfortunately, however, POSIX and most 'awk' implementations don't
support \0 as record separator (GNU awk does support it).
- This patch makes the earlier change to list paths with
'core.quotePath=false' basically redundant, because this could
decode any \nnn-escaped non-ASCII character just fine, as well.
However, I suspect that 'git ls-files' can deal with those
non-ASCII characters faster than this updated 'awk' script; just
in case someone is burdened with tons of pathnames containing
non-ASCII characters.

The order or possible completion words in the COMPREPLY array doesn't
actually matter, as long as all the right words are in there, because
Bash will sort them anyway. Yet, our tests looking at the elements of
COMPREPLY always expect them to be in a specific order.
Now, this hasn't been an issue before, but the next patch is about to
optimize a bit more our git-aware path completion, and as a harmless
side effect the order of elements in COMPREPLY will change. Worse,
the order will be downright undefined, because after the next patch
path components will come directly from iterating through an
associative array in 'awk', and the order of iteration over the
elements in those arrays is undefined, and indeed different 'awk'
implementations produce different order. Consequently, we can't get
away with simply adjusting the expected results in the affected tests.
Modify the 'test_completion' helper function to sort both the expected
and the actual results, i.e. the elements in COMPREPLY, before
comparing them, so the tests using this helper function will work
regardless of the order of elements.
Note that this change still leaves a bunch of tests depending on the
order of elements in COMPREPLY, tests that focus on a specific helper
function and therefore don't use the 'test_completion' helper. I
would rather deal with those later, when (if ever) the need actually
arises, than create unnecessary code churn now.

During git-aware path completion, e.g. 'git rm dir/fil<TAB>', both
'git ls-files' and 'git diff-index' list all paths in the given 'dir/'
matching certain criteria (cached, modified, untracked, etc.)
appropriate for the given git command, even paths whose names don't
begin with 'fil'. This comes with a considerable performance
penalty when the directory in question contains a lot of paths, but
the current word can be uniquely completed or when only a handful of
those paths match the current word.
Reduce the number of iterations in this codepath from the number of
paths to the number of matching paths by specifying an appropriate
globbing pattern to 'git ls-files' and 'git diff-index' to list only
paths that match the current word to be completed.
Note that both commands treat backslashes as escape characters in
their file arguments, e.g. to preserve the literal meaning of globbing
characters, so we have to double every backslash in the globbing
pattern. This is why one of the path completion tests specifically
checks the completion of a path containing a literal backslash
character (that test still fails, though, because both commands output
such paths enclosed in double quotes and the special characters
escaped; a later patch in this series will deal with those).
This speeds up path completion considerably when there are a lot of
non-matching paths to be filtered out. Uniquely completing a tracked
filename at the top of the worktree in linux.git (over 62k files),
i.e. what's doing all the hard work behind 'git rm Mak<TAB>' to
complete 'Makefile':

Our git-aware path completion doesn't work when it has to complete a
word already containing quoted and/or backslash-escaped characters on
the command line. The root cause of the issue is that completion
functions see all words on the command line verbatim, i.e. including
all backslash, single and double quote characters that the shell would
eventually remove when executing the finished command. These
quoting/escaping characters cause different issues depending on which
path component of the word to be completed contains them:
- The quoting/escaping is in the prefix path component(s).
Let's suppose we have a directory called 'New Dir', containing two
untracked files 'file.c' and 'file.o', and we have a gitignore
rule ignoring object files. In this case all of these:
git add New\ Dir/<TAB>
git add "New Dir/<TAB>
git add 'New Dir/<TAB>
should uniquely complete 'file.c' right away, but Bash offers both
'file.c' and 'file.o' instead. The reason for this behavior is
that our completion script uses the prefix directory name like
'git -C "New\ Dir/" ls-files ...", i.e. with the backslash inside
double quotes. Git then tries to enter a directory called
'New\ Dir', which (most likely) fails because such a directory
doesn't exists. As a result our completion script doesn't list
any files, leaves the COMPREPLY array empty, which in turn causes
Bash to fall back to its simple filename completion and lists all
files in that directory, i.e. both 'file.c' and 'file.o'.
- The quoting/escaping is in the path component to be completed.
Let's suppose we have two untracked files 'New File.c' and
'New File.o', and we have a gitignore rule ignoring object files.
In this case all of these:
git add New\ Fi<TAB>
git add "New Fi<TAB>
git add 'New Fi<TAB>
should uniquely complete 'New File.c' right away, but Bash offers
both 'New File.c' and 'New File.o' instead. The reason for this
behavior is that our completion script uses this 'New\ Fi' or
'"New Fi' etc. word to filter matching paths, and of course none
of the potential filenames will match because of the included
backslash or double quote. The end result is the same as above:
the completion script doesn't list any files, Bash falls back to
its filename completion, which then lists the matching object file
as well.
Add the new helper function __git_dequote() [1], which removes (most
of[2]) the quoting and escaping from the word it gets as argument. To
minimize the overhead of calling this function, store its result in
the variable $dequoted_word, supposed to be declared local in the
caller; simply printing the result would require a command
substitution imposing the overhead of fork()ing a subshell. Use this
function in __git_complete_index_file() to dequote the current word,
i.e. the path, to be completed, to avoid the above described
quoting-related issues, thereby fixing two of the failing quoted path
completion tests.
[1] The bash-completion project already has a dequote() function,
which I hoped I could borrow to deal with this, but unfortunately
it doesn't work quite well for this purpose (perhaps that's why
even the bash-completion project only rarely uses it). The main
issue is that their dequote() is implemented as:
eval printf %s "$1" 2> /dev/null
where $1 would contain the word to be completed. While it's a
short and sweet one-liner, the use of 'eval' requires that $1 is a
syntactically valid string, which is not the case when quoting the
path like 'git add "New Dir/<TAB>'. This causes 'eval' to fail,
because it can't find the matching closing double quote, and the
function returns nothing. The result is totally broken behavior,
as if the current word were empty, and the completion script would
then list all files from the current directory. This is why one
of the quoted path completion tests specifically checks the
completion of a path with an opening but without a corresponding
closing double quote character. Furthermore, the 'eval' performs
all kinds of expansions, which may or may not be desired; I think
it's the latter. Finally, using this function would require a
command substitution.
[2] Bash understands the $'string' quoting as well, which "expands to
'string', with backslash-escaped characters replaced as specified
by the ANSI C standard" (quoted from Bash manpage). Since shell
metacharacters, field separators, globbing, etc. can all be easily
entered using standard shell escaping or quoting, this type of
quoting comes in handly when dealing with control characters that
are otherwise difficult both to "type" and to see on the command
line. Because of this difficulty I would assume that people do
avoid pathnames with such control characters anyway, so I didn't
bother implementing it. This function is already way too long as
it is.

Unless the user has 'core.quotePath=false' somewhere in the
configuration, both 'git ls-files' and 'git diff-index' will by
default quote any pathnames that contain bytes with values higher than
0x80, and escape those bytes as '\nnn' octal values. This prevents
completing paths when the current path component to be completed
contains any non-ASCII, most notably UTF-8, characters, because none
of the listed quoted paths will match the current word on the command
line.
Set 'core.quotePath=false' for those 'git ls-files' and 'git
diff-index' invocations, so they won't consider bytes higher than 0x80
as "unusual", and won't quote pathnames containing such characters.
Note that pathnames containing backslash, double quote, or control
characters will still be quoted; a later patch in this series will
deal with those.

The established way to update the completion script in an already
running shell is to simply source it again: this brings in any new
--options and features, and clears caching variables. E.g. it clears
the variables caching the list of (all|porcelain) git commands, so
when they are later lazy-initialized again, then they will list and
cache any newly installed commmands as well.
Unfortunately, since d401f3debc (git-completion.bash: introduce
__gitcomp_builtin, 2018-02-09) and subsequent patches this doesn't
work for a lot of git commands' options. To eliminate a lot of
hard-to-maintain hard-coded lists of options, those commits changed
the completion script to use a bunch of programmatically created and
lazy-initialized variables to cache the options of those builtin
porcelain commands that use parse-options. These variables are not
cleared upon sourcing the completion script, therefore they continue
caching the old lists of options, even when some commands recently
learned new options or when deprecated options were removed.
Always 'unset' these variables caching the options of builtin commands
when sourcing the completion script.
Redirect 'unset's stderr to /dev/null, because ZSH's 'unset' complains
if it's invoked without any arguments, i.e. no variables caching
builtin's options are set. This can happen, if someone were to source
the completion script twice without completing any --options in
between. Bash stays silent in this case.
Add tests to ensure that these variables are indeed cleared when the
completion script is sourced; not just the variables caching options,
but all other caching variables, i.e. the variables caching commands,
porcelain commands and merge strategies as well.

Before this cloning git.git and doing "git push --delete origin

origin/pu, but fully qualified references aren't accepted by

__gitcomp_nl() iterates over all the possible completion words it gets
as argument
- filtering matching words,
- appending a trailing space to each matching word (in all but two
cases),
- prepending a prefix to each matching word (when completing words
after e.g. '--option=<TAB>' or 'master..<TAB>'), and
- adding each matching word to the COMPREPLY array.
This takes a while when a lot of refs are passed to __gitcomp_nl().
The previous changes in this series ensure that __git_refs() lists
only refs matching the current word to be completed, making a second
filtering in __gitcomp_nl() redundant.
Adding the necessary prefix and suffix could be done in __git_refs()
as well:
- When refs come from 'git for-each-ref', then that prefix and
suffix could be added much more efficiently using a 'git
for-each-ref' format containing said prefix and suffix. Care
should be taken, though, because that prefix might contain
'for-each-ref' format specifiers as part of the left hand side of
a '..' range or '...' symmetric difference notation or
fetch/push/etc. refspec, e.g. 'git log "evil-%(refname)..br<TAB>'.
Doubling every '%' in the prefix will prevent 'git for-each-ref'
from interpolating any of those contained specifiers.
- When refs come from 'git ls-remote', then that prefix and suffix
can be added in the shell loop that has to process 'git
ls-remote's output anyway.
- Finally, the prefix and suffix can be added to that handful of
potentially matching symbolic and pseudo refs right away in the
shell loop listing them.
And then all what is still left to do is to assign a bunch of
newline-separated words to a shell array, which can be done without a
shell loop iterating over each word, basically making all of
__gitcomp_nl() unnecessary for refs completion.
Add the helper function __gitcomp_direct() to fill the COMPREPLY array
with prefiltered and preprocessed words without any additional
processing, without a shell loop, with just one single compound
assignment. Modify __git_refs() to accept prefix and suffix
parameters and add them to each and every listed ref as described
above. Modify __git_complete_refs() to pass the prefix and suffix
parameters to __git_refs() and to feed __git_refs()'s output to
__gitcomp_direct() instead of __gitcomp_nl().
This speeds up refs completion when there are a lot of refs matching
the current word to be completed. Listing all branches for completion

When completing refs, several __git_refs() code paths list all the
refs from the refs/{heads,tags,remotes}/ hierarchy and then
__gitcomp_nl() iterates over those refs in a shell loop to filter out
refs not matching the current ref to be completed. This comes with a
considerable performance penalty when a repository contains a lot of
refs but the current ref can be uniquely completed or when only a
handful of refs match the current ref.
Reduce the number of iterations in __gitcomp_nl() from the number of
refs to the number of matching refs by specifying appropriate globbing
patterns to 'git for-each-ref' and 'git ls-remote' to list only those
refs that match the current ref to be completed. However, do so only
when the ref to match is explicitly given as parameter, because the
current word on the command line might contain a prefix like
'--option=' or 'branch..'. The __git_complete_refs() and
__git_complete_fetch_refspecs() helpers introduced previously in this
patch series already call __git_refs() specifying this current ref
parameter, so all their callsites, i.e. all places in the completion
script doing refs completion, can benefit from this optimization.
Furthermore, list only those symbolic and pseudo refs that match the
current ref to be completed. Though it doesn't matter at all in
itself performance-wise, it will allow us further significant
optimizations later in this series.
This speeds up refs completion considerably when there are a lot of

After 'git fetch <remote> <TAB>' our completion script offers refspecs
that will fetch to a local branch with the same name as in the remote
repository, e.g. 'master:master'. This also completes
non-fast-forward refspecs, i.e. after a '+' prefix like
'+master:master', and fully qualified refspecs, e.g.
'refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master'. However, it does not complete
non-fast-forward fully qualified refspecs (or fully qualified refspecs
following any other prefix, e.g. '--option=', though currently no git
command supports such an option, but third party git commands might).
These refspecs are listed by the __git_refs2() function, which is just
a thin wrapper iterating over __git_refs()'s output, turning each
listed ref into a refspec. Now, it's certainly possible to modify
__git_refs2() and its callsite to pass an extra parameter containing
only the ref part of the current word to be completed (to follow suit
of the previous commit) to deal with prefixed fully qualified refspecs
as well. Unfortunately, keeping the current behavior unchanged in the
"no extra parameter" case brings in a bit of subtlety, which makes the
resulting code ugly and compelled me to write a 8-line long comment in
the proof of concept. Not good. However, since the callsite has to
be modified for proper functioning anyway, we might as well leave
__git_refs2() as is and introduce a new helper function without
backwards compatibility concerns.
Add the new function __git_complete_fetch_refspecs() that has all the
necessary parameters to do the right thing in all cases mentioned
above, including non-fast-forward fully qualified refspecs. This new
function can also easier benefit from optimizations coming later in
this patch series.

Completing full refs currently only works when the full ref stands on
in its own on the command line, but doesn't work when the current word
to be completed contains a prefix before the full ref, e.g.
'--option=refs/<TAB>' or 'master..refs/bis<TAB>'.
The reason is that __git_refs() looks at the current word to be
completed ($cur) as a whole to decide whether it has to list full (if
it starts with 'refs/') or short refs (otherwise). However, $cur also
holds said '--option=' or 'master..' prefixes, which of course throw
off this decision. Luckily, the default action is to list short refs,
that's why completing short refs happens to work even after a
'master..<TAB>' prefix and similar cases.
Pass only the ref part of the current word to be completed to
__git_refs() as a new positional parameter, so it can make the right
decision even if the whole current word contains some kind of a
prefix.
Make this new parameter the 4. positional parameter and leave the 3.
as an ignored placeholder for now (it will be used later in this patch
series).

__git_refs() currently accepts two optional positional parameters: a
remote and a flag for 'git checkout's tracking DWIMery. To fix a
minor bug, and, more importantly, for faster refs completion, this
series will add three more parameters: a prefix, the current word to
be completed and a suffix, i.e. the options accepted by __gitcomp() &
friends, and will change __git_refs() to list only refs matching that
given current word and to add that given prefix and suffix to the
listed refs.
However, __git_refs() is the helper function that is most likely used
in users' custom completion scriptlets for their own git commands, and
we don't want to break those, so
- we can't change __git_refs()'s default output format, i.e. we
can't by default append a trailing space to every listed ref,
meaning that the suffix parameter containing the default trailing
space would have to be specified on every invocation, and
- we can't change the position of existing positional parameters
either, so there would have to be plenty of set-but-empty
placeholder positional parameters all over the completion script.
Furthermore, with five positional parameters it would be really hard
to remember which position means what.
To keep callsites simple, add the new wrapper function
__git_complete_refs() around __git_refs(), which:
- instead of positional parameters accepts real '--opt=val'-style
options and with minimalistic option parsing translates them to
__git_refs()'s and __gitcomp_nl()'s positional parameters, and
- includes the '__gitcomp_nl "$(__git_refs ...)" ...' command
substitution to make its behavior match its name and the behavior
of other __git_complete_* functions, and to limit future changes
in this series to __git_refs() and this new wrapper function.
Call this wrapper function instead of __git_refs() wherever possible
throughout the completion script, i.e. when __git_refs()'s output is
fed to __gitcomp_nl() right away without further processing, which
means all callsites except a single one in the __git_refs2() helper.
