"git ls-remote" and "git archive --remote" are designed to work
without being in a directory under Git's control. However, recent
updates revealed that we randomly look into a directory called
.git/ without actually doing necessary set-up when working in a
repository. Stop doing so.

The command line options for ssh invocation needs to be tweaked for
some implementations of SSH (e.g. PuTTY plink wants "-P <port>"
while OpenSSH wants "-p <port>" to specify port to connect to), and
the variant was guessed when GIT_SSH environment variable is used
to specify it. The logic to guess now applies to the command
specified by the newer GIT_SSH_COMMAND and also core.sshcommand
configuration variable, and comes with an escape hatch for users to

git-grep has always disallowed grepping in a tree (as
opposed to the working directory) with both --untracked
and --no-index. But we traditionally did so by first
collecting the revs, and then complaining when any were
provided.
The --no-index option recently learned to detect revs
much earlier. This has two user-visible effects:
- we don't bother to resolve revision names at all. So
when there's a rev/path ambiguity, we always choose to
treat it as a path.
- likewise, when you do specify a revision without "--",
the error you get is "no such path" and not "--untracked
cannot be used with revs".
The rationale for doing this with --no-index is that it is
meant to be used outside a repository, and so parsing revs
at all does not make sense.
This patch gives --untracked the same treatment. While it
_is_ meant to be used in a repository, it is explicitly
about grepping the non-repository contents. Telling the user
"we found a rev, but you are not allowed to use revs" is
not really helpful compared to "we treated your argument as
a path, and could not find it".

To push from or fetch to the current repository, remote helpers need
to know what repository that is. Accordingly, Git sets the GIT_DIR
environment variable to the path to the current repository when
invoking remote helpers.
There is a special case it does not handle: "git ls-remote" and "git
archive --remote" can be run to inspect a remote repository without
being run from any local repository. GIT_DIR is not useful in this
scenario:
- if we are not in a repository, we don't need to set GIT_DIR to
override an existing GIT_DIR value from the environment. If GIT_DIR
is present then we would be in a repository if it were valid and
would have called die() if it weren't.
- not setting GIT_DIR may cause a helper to do the usual discovery
walk to find the repository. But we know we're not in one, or we
would have found it ourselves. So in the worst case it may expend
a little extra effort to try to find a repository and fail (for
example, remote-curl would do this to try to find repository-level
configuration).
So leave GIT_DIR unset in this case. This makes GIT_DIR easier to
understand for remote helper authors and makes transport code less of
a special case for repository discovery.
Noticed using b1ef400e (setup_git_env: avoid blind fall-back to

The "git ls-remote" command can be run outside of a
repository, but needs to look up configured remotes. The
config code is smart enough to handle this case itself, but
we also check the historical "branches" and "remotes" paths
in $GIT_DIR. The git_path() function causes us to blindly
look at ".git/remotes", even if we know we aren't in a git
repository.
For now, this is just an unlikely bug (you probably don't
have such a file if you're not in a repository), but it will
become more obvious once we merge b1ef400ee (setup_git_env:
avoid blind fall-back to ".git", 2016-10-20):
[now]
$ git ls-remote
fatal: No remote configured to list refs from.
[with b1ef400ee]
$ git ls-remote
fatal: BUG: setup_git_env called without repository
We can fix this by skipping these sources entirely when
we're outside of a repository.
The test is a little more complex than the demonstration
above. Rather than detect the correct behavior by parsing
the error message, we can actually set up a case where the
remote name we give is a valid repository, but b1ef400ee
would cause us to die in the configuration step.
This test doesn't fail now, but it future-proofs us for the
b1ef400ee change.

We disallow the use of revisions with --no-index, but we
don't actually check and complain until well after we've
parsed the revisions.
This is the cause of a few problems:
1. We shouldn't be calling get_sha1() at all when we aren't
in a repository, as it might access the ref or object
databases. For now, this should generally just return
failure, but eventually it will become a BUG().
2. When there's a "--" disambiguator and you're outside a
repository, we'll complain early with "unable to resolve
revision". But we can give a much more specific error.
3. When there isn't a "--" disambiguator, we still do the
normal rev/path checks. This is silly, as we know we
cannot have any revs with --no-index. Everything we see
must be a path.
Outside of a repository this doesn't matter (since we
know it won't resolve), but inside one, we may complain
unnecessarily if a filename happens to also match a
refname.
This patch skips the get_sha1() call entirely in the
no-index case, and behaves as if it failed (with the
exception of giving a better error message).

If we see "git grep pattern rev -- file" then we apply the
usual rev/pathspec disambiguation rules: any "rev" before
the "--" must be a revision, and we do not need to apply the
verify_non_filename() check.
But there are two bugs here:
1. We keep a seen_dashdash flag to handle this case, but
we set it in the same left-to-right pass over the
arguments in which we parse "rev".
So when we see "rev", we do not yet know that there is
a "--", and we mistakenly complain if there is a
matching file.
We can fix this by making a preliminary pass over the
arguments to find the "--", and only then checking the rev
arguments.
2. If we can't resolve "rev" but there isn't a dashdash,
that's OK. We treat it like a path, and complain later
if it doesn't exist.
But if there _is_ a dashdash, then we know it must be a
rev, and should treat it as such, complaining if it
does not resolve. The current code instead ignores it
and tries to treat it like a path.
This patch fixes both bugs, and tries to comment the parsing
flow a bit better.
It adds tests that cover the two bugs, but also some related
situations (which already worked, but this confirms that our
fixes did not break anything).

When running a command of the form
git grep --no-index pattern -- path
in the absence of a Git repository, an error message will be printed:
fatal: BUG: setup_git_env called without repository
This is because "git grep" tries to interpret "--" as a rev. "git grep"
has always tried to first interpret "--" as a rev for at least a few
years, but this issue was upgraded from a pessimization to a bug in
commit 59332d1 ("Resurrect "git grep --no-index"", 2010-02-06), which
calls get_sha1 regardless of whether --no-index was specified. This bug
appeared to be benign until commit b1ef400 ("setup_git_env: avoid blind
fall-back to ".git"", 2016-10-20) when Git was taught to die in this
situation. (This "git grep" bug appears to be one of the bugs that
commit b1ef400 is meant to flush out.)
Therefore, always interpret "--" as signaling the end of options,
instead of trying to interpret it as a rev first.

A server can end up in a state where there are lots of unreferenced
loose objects (say, because many users are doing a bunch of rebasing
and pushing their rebased branches). Running "git gc --auto" in
this state would cause a gc.log file to be created, preventing
future auto gcs, causing pack files to pile up. Since many git
operations are O(n) in the number of pack files, this would lead to
poor performance.
Git should never get itself into a state where it refuses to do any
maintenance, just because at some point some piece of the maintenance
didn't make progress.
Teach Git to ignore gc.log files which are older than (by default)
one day old, which can be tweaked via the gc.logExpiry configuration
variable. That way, these pack files will get cleaned up, if
necessary, at least once per day. And operators who find a need for
more-frequent gcs can adjust gc.logExpiry to meet their needs.
There is also some cleanup: a successful manual gc, or a
warning-free auto gc with an old log file, will remove any old
gc.log files.
It might still happen that manual intervention is required
(e.g. because the repo is corrupt), but at the very least it won't
be because Git is too dumb to try again.

In a9e38359e3 we taught git-p4 a way to re-encode path names from what
was used in Perforce to UTF-8. This path re-encoding worked properly for
"added" paths. "Removed" paths were not re-encoded and therefore
different from the "added" paths. Consequently, these files were not
removed in a git-p4 cloned Git repository because the path names did not
match.
Fix this by moving the re-encoding to a place that affects "added" and
"removed" paths. Add a test to demonstrate the issue.

Now that the sequencer learned to process a "normal" interactive rebase,
we use it. The original shell script is still used for "non-normal"
interactive rebases, i.e. when --root or --preserve-merges was passed.
Please note that the --root option (via the $squash_onto variable) needs
special handling only for the very first command, hence it is still okay
to use the helper upon continue/skip.
Also please note that the --no-ff setting is volatile, i.e. when the
interactive rebase is interrupted at any stage, there is no record of
it. Therefore, we have to pass it from the shell script to the
rebase--helper.
Note: the test t3404 had to be adjusted because the the error messages
produced by the sequencer comply with our current convention to start with
a lower-case letter.

When using non-builtin protocols relying on a transport helper
(such as http), push options are not propagated to the helper.
The user could ask for push options and a push would seemingly succeed,
but the push options would never be transported to the server,
misleading the users expectation.
Fix this by propagating the push options to the transport helper.
This is only addressing the first issue of
(1) the helper protocol does not propagate push-option
(2) the http helper is not prepared to handle push-option
Once we fix (2), the http transport helper can make use of push options
as well, but that happens as a follow up. (1) is a bug fix, whereas (2)
is a feature, which is why we only do (1) here.

When tags are created with `--create-reflog` or with the option
`core.logAllRefUpdates` set to 'always', a reflog is created for them.
So far, the description of reflog entries for tags was empty, making the
reflog hard to understand. For example:
6e3a7b3 refs/tags/test@{0}:
Now, a reflog message is generated when creating a tag, following the
pattern "tag: tagging <short-sha1> (<description>)". If
GIT_REFLOG_ACTION is set, the message becomes "$GIT_REFLOG_ACTION
(<description>)" instead. If the tag references a commit object, the
description is set to the subject line of the commit, followed by its
commit date. For example:
6e3a7b3 refs/tags/test@{0}: tag: tagging 6e3a7b3398 (Git 2.12-rc0, 2017-02-03)
If the tag points to a tree/blob/tag objects, the following static
strings are taken as description:
- "tree object"
- "blob object"
- "other tag object"

We de-duplicate ".have" refs among themselves, but never
check if they are duplicates of our local refs. It's not
unreasonable that they would be if we are a "--shared" or
"--reference" clone of a similar repository; we'd have all
the same tags.
We can handle this by inserting our local refs into the
oidset, but obviously not suppressing duplicates (since the
refnames are important).
Note that this also switches the order in which we advertise
refs, processing ours first and then any alternates. The
order shouldn't matter (and arguably showing our refs first
makes more sense).

If you run "git log --graph --name-only", the pathnames are
not indented to go along with their matching commits (unlike
all of the other diff formats). We need to output the line
prefix for each item before writing it.
The tests cover both --name-status and --name-only. The
former actually gets this right already, because it builds
on the --raw format functions. It's only --name-only which
uses its own code (and this fix mirrors the code in
diff_flush_raw()).
Note that the tests don't follow our usual style of setting
up the "expect" output inside the test block. This matches
the surrounding style, but more importantly it is easier to
read: we don't have to worry about embedded single-quotes,
and the leading indentation is more obvious.

repo) index-pack silently created a non-existing target directory; now
the command refuses to work unless it's used against a valid repository.
That causes p5302 to fail, which relies on the former behavior. Fix it
by setting up the destinations for its performance tests using git init.

After the previous changes in this series there are only a handful of
$(__gitdir) command substitutions left in the completion script, but
there is still a bit of room for improvements:
1. The command substitution involves the forking of a subshell,
which has considerable overhead on some platforms.
2. There are a few cases, where this command substitution is
executed more than once during a single completion, which means
multiple subshells and possibly multiple 'git rev-parse'
executions. __gitdir() is invoked twice while completing refs
for e.g. 'git log', 'git rebase', 'gitk', or while completing
remote refs for 'git fetch' or 'git push'.
Both of these points can be addressed by using the
__git_find_repo_path() helper function introduced in the previous
commit:
1. __git_find_repo_path() stores the path to the repository in a
variable instead of printing it, so the command substitution
around the function can be avoided. Or rather: the command
substitution should be avoided to make the new value of the
variable set inside the function visible to the callers.
(Yes, there is now a command substitution inside
__git_find_repo_path() around each 'git rev-parse', but that's
executed only if necessary, and only once per completion, see
point 2. below.)
2. $__git_repo_path, the variable holding the path to the
repository, is declared local in the toplevel completion
functions __git_main() and __gitk_main(). Thus, once set, the
path is visible in all completion functions, including all
subsequent calls to __git_find_repo_path(), meaning that they
wouldn't have to re-discover the path to the repository.
So call __git_find_repo_path() and use $__git_repo_path instead of the
$(__gitdir) command substitution to access paths in the .git
directory. Turn tests checking __gitdir()'s repository discovery into
tests of __git_find_repo_path() such that only the tested function
changes but the expected results don't, ensuring that repo discovery
keeps working as it did before.
As __gitdir() is not used anymore in the completion script, mark it as
deprecated and direct users' attention to __git_find_repo_path() and
$__git_repo_path. Yet keep four __gitdir() tests to ensure that it
handles success and failure of __git_find_repo_path() and that it
still handles its optional remote argument, because users' custom
completion scriptlets might depend on it.

To prepare for caching the path to the repository in the following
commit, extract the repository discovering part of __gitdir() into the
__git_find_repo_path() helper function, which stores the found path in
the $__git_repo_path variable instead of printing it. Make __gitdir()
a wrapper around this new function. Declare $__git_repo_path local in
the toplevel completion functions __git_main() and __gitk_main() to
ensure that it never leaks into the environment and influences
subsequent completions (though this isn't necessary right now, as
__gitdir() is still only executed in subshells, but will matter for
the following commit).
Adjust tests checking __gitdir() or any other completion function
calling __gitdir() to perform those checks in a subshell to prevent
$__git_repo_path from leaking into the test environment. Otherwise
leave the tests unchanged to demonstrate that this change doesn't
alter __gitdir()'s behavior.

'git -C <path>' option(s) on the command line should be taken into
account during completion, because
- like '--git-dir=<path>', it can lead us to a different repository,
- a few git commands executed in the completion script do care about
in which directory they are executed, and
- the command for which we are providing completion might care about
in which directory it will be executed.
However, unlike '--git-dir=<path>', the '-C <path>' option can be
specified multiple times and their effect is cumulative, so we can't
just store a single '<path>' in a variable. Nor can we simply
concatenate a path from '-C <path1> -C <path2> ...', because e.g. (in
an arguably pathological corner case) a relative path might be
followed by an absolute path.
Instead, store all '-C <path>' options word by word in the
$__git_C_args array in the main git completion function, and pass this
array, if present, to 'git rev-parse --absolute-git-dir' when
discovering the repository in __gitdir(), and let it take care of
multiple options, relative paths, absolute paths and everything.
Also pass all '-C <path> options via the $__git_C_args array to those
git executions which require a worktree and for which it matters from
which directory they are executed from. There are only three such
cases:
- 'git diff-index' and 'git ls-files' in __git_ls_files_helper()
used for git-aware filename completion, and
- the 'git ls-tree' used for completing the 'ref:path' notation.
The other git commands executed in the completion script don't need
these '-C <path>' options, because __gitdir() already took those
options into account. It would not hurt them, either, but let's not
induce unnecessary code churn.

The output of 'git rev-parse --git-dir' can be either a relative or an
absolute path, depending on whether the current working directory is
at the top of the worktree or the .git directory or not, or how the
path to the repository is specified via the '--git-dir=<path>' option
or the $GIT_DIR environment variable. And if that output is a
relative path, then it is relative to the directory where any 'git
-C <path>' options might have led us.
This doesn't matter at all for regular scripts, because the git
wrapper automatically takes care of changing directories according to
the '-C <path>' options, and the scripts can then simply follow any
path returned by 'git rev-parse --git-dir', even if it's a relative
path.
Our Bash completion script, however, is unique in that it must run
directly in the user's interactive shell environment. This means that
it's not executed through the git wrapper and would have to take care
of any '-C <path> options on its own, and it can't just change
directories as it pleases. Consequently, adding support for taking
any '-C <path>' options on the command line into account during
completion turned out to be considerably more difficult, error prone
and required more subshells and git processes when it had to cope with
a relative path to the .git directory.
Help this rather special use case and teach 'git rev-parse' a new
'--absolute-git-dir' option which always outputs a canonicalized
absolute path to the .git directory, regardless of whether the path is
discovered automatically or is specified via $GIT_DIR or 'git
--git-dir=<path>'.

The main completion function finds the name of the git command by
iterating through all the words on the command line in search for the
first non-option-looking word. As it is not aware of 'git -C's
mandatory path argument, if the '-C <path>' option is present, 'path'
will be the first such word and it will be mistaken for a git command.
This breaks completion in various ways:
- If 'path' happens to match one of the commands supported by the
completion script, then options of that command will be offered.
- If 'path' doesn't match a supported command and doesn't contain any
characters not allowed in Bash identifier names, then the
completion script does basically nothing and Bash in turn falls
back to filename completion for all subsequent words.
- Otherwise, if 'path' does contain such an unallowed character, then
it leads to a more or less ugly error message in the middle of the
command line. The standard '/' directory separator is such a
character, and it happens to trigger one of the uglier errors:
$ git -C some/path <TAB>sh.exe": declare: `_git_some/path': not a valid identifier
error: invalid key: alias.some/path
Fix this by skipping 'git -C's mandatory path argument while iterating
over the words on the command line. Extend the relevant test with
this case and, while at it, with cases that needed similar treatment
in the past ('--git-dir', '-c', '--work-tree' and '--namespace').
Additionally, silence the standard error of the 'declare' builtins
looking for the completion function associated with the git command
and of the 'git config' query for the aliased command. So if git ever
learns a new option with a mandatory argument in the future, then,
though the completion script will again misbehave, at least the
command line will not be utterly disrupted by those error messages.

e832f5c09680 (completion: avoid ls-remote in certain scenarios,
2013-05-28) turned a 'git ls-remote <remote>' query into a 'git
for-each-ref refs/remotes/<remote>/' to improve responsiveness of
remote refs completion by avoiding potential network communication.
However, it inadvertently made impossible to complete short refs from
a remote given as a URL, e.g. 'git fetch git://server.com/repo.git
<TAB>', because there is, of course, no such thing as
'refs/remotes/git://server.com/repo.git'.
Since the previous commit we tell apart configured remotes, i.e. those
that can have a hierarchy under 'refs/remotes/', from others that
don't, including remotes given as URL, so we know when we can't use
the faster 'git for-each-ref'-based approach.
Resurrect the old, pre-e832f5c09680 'git ls-remote'-based code for the
latter case to support listing short refs from remotes given as a URL.
The code is slightly updated from the original to
- take into account the path to the repository given on the command
line (if any), and
- omit 'ORIG_HEAD' from the query, as 'git ls-remote' will never
list it anyway.
When the remote given to __git_refs() doesn't exist, then it will be
handled by this resurrected 'git ls-remote' query. This code path
doesn't list 'HEAD' unconditionally, which has the nice side effect of
fixing two more expected test failures.

When refs completion is attempted while not in a git repository, the
completion script offers 'HEAD' erroneously.
Check early in __git_refs() that there is either a repository or a
remote to work on, and return early if neither is given.
