When "git describe C" finds an annotated tag with tagname A to be
the best name to explain commit C, and the tag is stored in a
"wrong" place in the refs/tags hierarchy, e.g. refs/tags/B, the
command gave a warning message but used A (not B) to describe C.
If C is exactly at the tag, the describe output would be "A", but
"git rev-parse A^0" would not be equal as "git rev-parse C^0". The
behavior of the command has been changed to use the "long" form
i.e. A-0-gOBJECTNAME, which is correctly interpreted by rev-parse.

Test fix.
* en/rebase-backend:
t3419: prevent failure when run with EXPENSIVE
|
|
This test runs a function which itself runs several assertions. The
last of these assertions cleans up the .git/rebase-apply directory,
since when run with EXPENSIVE set, the function is invoked a second time
to run the same tests with a larger data set.
However, as of 2ac0d6273f ("rebase: change the default backend from "am"
to "merge"", 2020-02-15), the default backend of rebase has changed, and
cleaning up the rebase-apply directory has no effect: it no longer
exists, since we're using rebase-merge instead.
Since we don't really care which rebase backend is in use, let's just
use the command "git rebase --quit", which will do the right thing
regardless.

The environment variable GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE was previously used
to allow testing the --sparse option for "git pack-objects" in
the test suite. This allowed interesting cases of "git push" to
also test this algorithm.
Since pack.useSparse is now true by default, we do not need this
variable to _enable_ the --sparse option, but instead to _disable_
it. This flips how we work with the variable a bit.
When checking for the variable, default to a value of -1 for
"unset". If unset, then take the default from the repo settings,
which is currently 1. Then, the --[no-]sparse command-line option
will override either of these settings.

The pack.useSparse config option was introduced by 3d036eb0
(pack-objects: create pack.useSparse setting, 2019-01-19) and was
first available in v2.21.0. When enabled, the pack-objects process
during 'git push' will use a sparse tree walk when deciding which
trees and blobs to send to the remote. The algorithm was introduced
by d5d2e93 (revision: implement sparse algorithm, 2019-01-16) and
has been in production use by VFS for Git since around that time.
The features.experimental config option also enabled pack.useSparse,
so hopefully that has also increased exposure.
It is worth noting that pack.useSparse has a possibility of
sending more objects across a push, but requires a special
arrangement of exact _copies_ across directories. There is a test
in t5322-pack-objects-sparse.sh that demonstrates this possibility.
This test uses the --sparse option to "git pack-objects" but we
can make it implied by the config value to demonstrate that the
default value has changed.
While updating that test, I noticed that the documentation did not
include an option for --no-sparse, which is now more important than
it was before.
Since the downside is unlikely but the upside is significant, set
the default value of pack.useSparse to true. Remove it from the
set of options implied by features.experimental.

Now that we have the codebase wired up to pass any additional metadata
to filters, let's collect the additional metadata that we'd like to
pass.
The two main places we pass this metadata are checkouts and archives.
In these two situations, reading HEAD isn't a valid option, since HEAD
isn't updated for checkouts until after the working tree is written and
archives can accept an arbitrary tree. In other situations, HEAD will
usually reflect the refname of the branch in current use.
We pass a smaller amount of data in other cases, such as git cat-file,
where we can really only logically know about the blob.
This commit updates only the parts of the checkout code where we don't
use unpack_trees. That function and callers of it will be handled in a
future commit.
In the archive code, we leak a small amount of memory, since nothing we
pass in the archiver argument structure is freed.

There weren't any tests for unsuccessful signature verification of
signed merge tags shown in 'git log'. There also weren't any tests for
the GPG output from 'git fmt-merge-msg'. This was noticed while
investigating a buggy refactor that slipped through the test suite; see
commit 72b006f4bfd30b7c5037c163efaf279ab65bea9c.
This commit adds signature verification tests to the 'log' and
'fmt-merge-msg' builtins.
Thanks to Linus Torvalds for reporting and finding the (now reverted)
commit that introduced the regression.
Note that the "log --show-signature for merged tag with GPG failure"
test case is really hacky. It relies on an implementation detail of
verify_signed_buffer() -- namely, it assumes that the signature is
written to a temporary file whose path is under TMPDIR.
The rationale for that test case is to check whether the code path that
yields the "No signature" message is reachable on failure. The
functionality in log-tree.c that may show this message does some
pre-parsing of a possible signature that prevents the GPG interface from
being invoked if a signature is actually missing. And I haven't been
able to construct a signature that both 1. satisfies that
pre-processing, and 2. causes GPG to fail without any sort of output on
stderr along the lines of "this is a bogus/corrupt/... signature" (the
"No signature" message should only be shown if GPG produce no output).

Git's current directory by showing them the absolute path to the Git

locate the worktree in question, it can still help a user figure out
what's going on while developing a script.

Several tests wanted to verify that files were actually modified by a
merge, which it would do by checking that the mtime was updated. In
order to avoid problems with the merge completing so fast that the mtime
at the beginning and end of the operation was the same, these tests
would first set the mtime of a file to something "old". This "old"
value was usually determined as current system clock minus one second,
truncated to the nearest integer. Unfortunately, it appears the system
clock and filesystem clock are different and comparing across the two
runs into race problems resulting in flaky tests.
From https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14392975/timestamp-accuracy-on-ext4-sub-millsecond:
date will call the gettimeofday system call which will always return
the most accurate time available based on the cached kernel time,
adjusted by the CPU cycle time if available to give nanosecond
resolution. The timestamps stored in the file system however, are
only based on the cached kernel time. ie The time calculated at the
last timer interrupt.
and from https://apenwarr.ca/log/20181113:
Does mtime get set to >= the current time?
No, this depends on clock granularity. For example, gettimeofday()
can return times in microseconds on my system, but ext4 rounds
timestamps down to the previous ~10ms (but not exactly 10ms)
increment, with the surprising result that a newly-created file is
almost always created in the past:
$ python -c "
import os, time
t0 = time.time()
open('testfile', 'w').close()
print os.stat('testfile').st_mtime - t0
"
-0.00234484672546
So, instead of trying to compare across what are effectively two
different clocks, just avoid using the system clock. Any new updates to
files have to give an mtime at least as big as what is already in the
file, so we could define "old" as one second before the mtime found in
the file before the merge starts. But, to avoid problems with leap
seconds, ntp updates, filesystems that only provide two second
resolution, and other such weirdness, let's just pick an hour before the
mtime found in the file before the merge starts.
Also, clarify in one test where we check the mtime of different files
that it really was intentional. I totally forgot the reasons for that
and assumed it was a bug when asked.

Band-aid fixes for two fallouts from switching the default "rebase"
backend.
* en/rebase-backend:
git-rebase.txt: highlight backend differences with commit rewording
sequencer: clear state upon dropping a become-empty commit
i18n: unmark a message in rebase.c
|
|
In commit e98c4269c8 ("rebase (interactive-backend): fix handling of
commits that become empty", 2020-02-15), the merge backend was changed
to drop commits that did not start empty but became so after being
applied (because their changes were a subset of what was already
upstream). This new code path did not need to go through the process of
creating a commit, since we were dropping the commit instead.
Unfortunately, this also means we bypassed the clearing of the
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and MERGE_MSG files, which if there were no further
commits to cherry-pick would mean that the rebase would end but assume
there was still an operation in progress. Ensure that we clear such
state files when we decide to drop the commit.

Often novice Git users forget to say "pull --rebase" and end up with an
unnecessary merge from upstream. What they usually want is either "pull
--rebase" in the simpler cases, or "pull --ff-only" to update the copy
of main integration branches, and rebase their work separately. The
pull.rebase configuration variable exists to help them in the simpler
cases, but there is no mechanism to make these users aware of it.
Issue a warning message when no --[no-]rebase option from the command
line and no pull.rebase configuration variable is given. This will
inconvenience those who never want to "pull --rebase", who haven't had
to do anything special, but the cost of the inconvenience is paid only
once per user, which should be a reasonable cost to help a number of new
users.

Returning a shared buffer invites very subtle bugs due to reentrancy or
multi-threading, as demonstrated by the previous patch.
There was an unfinished effort to abolish this [1].
Let's finally rid of `real_path()`, using `strbuf_realpath()` instead.
This patch uses a local `strbuf` for most places where `real_path()` was
previously called.
However, two places return the value of `real_path()` to the caller. For
them, a `static` local `strbuf` was added, effectively pushing the
problem one level higher:
read_gitfile_gently()
get_superproject_working_tree()

We grep for "File exists" in stderr of the failing `git sparse-checkout`
to make sure that it failed for the right reason. We expect the string
to show up there since we call `strerror(errno)` in
`unable_to_lock_message()` in lockfile.c.
On the NonStop platform, this fails because the error string is "File
already exists", which doesn't match our grepping.
See 9042140097 ("test-dir-iterator: do not assume errno values",
2019-07-30) for a somewhat similar fix. There, we patched a test helper,
which meant we had access to `errno` and could investigate it better in
the test helper instead of just outputting the numerical value and
evaluating it in the test script. The current situation is different,
since (short of modifying the lockfile machinery, e.g., to be more
verbose) we don't have more than the output from `strerror()` available.
Except we do: We prefix `strerror(errno)` with `_("Unable to create
'%s.lock': ")`. Let's grep for that part instead. It verifies that we
were indeed unable to create the lock file. (If that fails for some
other reason than the file existing, we really really should expect
other tests to fail as well.)
An alternative fix would be to loosen the expression a bit and grep for
"File.* exists" instead. There would be no guarantee that some other
implementation couldn't come up with another error string, That is, that
could be the first move in an endless game of whack-a-mole. Of course,
it could also take us from "99" to "100" percent of the platforms and
we'd never have this problem again. But since we have another way of
addressing this, let's not even try the "loosen it up a bit" strategy.

Remove the stash.useBuiltin setting which was added as an escape hatch
to disable the builtin version of stash first released with Git 2.22.
Carrying the legacy version is a maintenance burden, and has in fact
become out of date failing a test since the 2.23 release, without
anyone noticing until now. So users would be getting a hint to fall
back to a potentially buggy version of the tool.
We used to shell out to git config to get the useBuiltin configuration
to avoid changing any global state before spawning legacy-stash.
However that is no longer necessary, so just use the 'git_config'
function to get the setting instead.
Similar to what we've done in d03ebd411c ("rebase: remove the
rebase.useBuiltin setting", 2019-03-18), where we remove the
corresponding setting for rebase, we leave the documentation in place,
so people can refer back to it when searching for it online, and so we
can refer to it in the commit message.
