"remote update": print remote name being fetched from
When the other end has dangling symref, "git fetch" issues an error
message but that is not grave enough to cause the fetch process to fail.
As the result, the user will see something like this:
$ git remote update
error: refs/heads/2.0-uobjects points nowhere!
"remote update" used to report which remote it is fetching from, like
this:
$ git remote update
Updating core
Updating matthieu
error: refs/heads/2.0-uobjects points nowhere!
Updating origin
This reinstates the message "Updating <name>" in "git remote update".

remote: fix "update [group...]"
The rewrite in C inadvertently broke updating with remote groups: when you
pass parameters to "git remote update", it used to look up "remotes.<group>"
for every parameter, and interpret the value as a list of remotes to update.
Also, no parameter, or a single parameter "default" should update all
remotes that have not been marked with "skipDefaultUpdate".

Eliminate confusing "won't bisect on seeked tree" failure
This error message is very confusing---it doesn't tell the user
anything about how to fix the situation. And the actual fix
for the situation ("git bisect reset") does a checkout of a
potentially random branch, (compared to what the user wants to
be on for the bisect she is starting).
The simplest way to eliminate the confusion is to just make
"git bisect start" do the cleanup itself. There's no significant
loss of safety here since we already have a general safety in
the form of the reflog.
Note: We preserve the warning for any cogito users. We do this
by switching from .git/head-name to .git/BISECT_START for the
extra state, (which is a more descriptive name anyway).

git-apply --whitespace=fix: fix off by one thinko
When a patch adds a whitespace followed by end-of-line, the
trailing whitespace error was detected correctly but was not
fixed, due to misconversion in 42ab241 (builtin-apply.c: do not
feed copy_wsfix() leading '+').

gitweb: Better cutting matched string and its context
Improve look of commit search output ('search' view) by better cutting
of matched string and its context in match info, as suggested by Junio.
For example, if you are looking for "very long search string" in the
following line:
Could somebody test this with very long search string, and see how
you would now see:
...this with <<very long ... string>>, and see...
instead of:
Could som... <<very long search...>>, and see...
(where <<something>> denotes emphasized / colored fragment; matched
fragment to be more exact).
For this feature, support for fourth [optional] parameter to chop_str
subroutine was added. This fourth parameter is used to denote where
to cut string to make it shorter. chop_str can now cut at the
beginning (from the _left_ side of the string), in the middle
(_center_ of the string), or at the end (from the _right_ side of
the string); cutting from right is the default:
chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'left') -> ' ...string'
chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'center') -> 'som ... ing'
chop_str(somestring, len, slop, 'right') -> 'somestr... '
If you want to use default slop (default additional length), use undef
as value for third parameter to chop_str.
While at it, return from chop_str early if given string is so short
that chop_str couldn't shorten it. Simplify also regexp used by
chop_str. Make ellipsis (dots) stick to shortened fragment for
cutting at ends, to better see which part got shortened.
Simplify passing all arguments to chop_str in chop_and_escape_str
subroutine. This was needed to pass additional options to chop_str.

Improve collection of information for format-patch --cover-letter

This makes all cover letter include shortlogs, and all cover letters

are multiple boundary commits it's unclear what would be meaningful as
a diffstat). Note that the single boundary test is empirical, not
theoretical; even a -2 limiting condition will give a diffstat if there's

Add tests for filesystem challenges (case and unicode normalization)
Git has difficulties on file systems that do not properly
distinguish case or modify filenames in unexpected ways. The two
major examples are Windows and Mac OS X. Both systems preserve
case of file names but do not distinguish between filenames that
differ only by case. Simple operations such as "git mv" or
"git merge" can fail unexpectedly. In addition, Mac OS X normalizes
unicode, which make git's life even harder.
This commit adds tests that currently fail but should pass if
file system as decribed above are fully supported. The test need
to be run on Windows and Mac X as they already pass on Linux.
Mitch Tishmack is the original author of the tests for unicode
normalization.

url rewriting: take longest and first match
Earlier we had a cop-out in the documentation to make the
behaviour "undefined" if configuration had more than one
insteadOf that would match the target URL, like this:
[url "git://git.or.cz/"]

[url "/local/mirror/"]
insteadOf = "git.or.cz:myrepo" ; (3)
insteadOf = "repo.or.cz:" ; (4)
It would be most natural to take the longest and first match, i.e.
- rewrite "git.or.cz:frotz" to "git://git.or.cz/frotz" by using
(1),
- rewrite "git.or.cz:myrepo/xyzzy" to "/local/mirror/xyzzy" by favoring
(3) over (1), and

Eliminate confusing "won't bisect on seeked tree" failure
This error message is very confusing---it doesn't tell the user
anything about how to fix the situation. And the actual fix
for the situation ("git bisect reset") does a checkout of a
potentially random branch, (compared to what the user wants to
be on for the bisect she is starting).
The simplest way to eliminate the confusion is to just make
"git bisect start" do the cleanup itself. There's no significant
loss of safety here since we already have a general safety in
the form of the reflog.
Note: We preserve the warning for any cogito users. We do this
by switching from .git/head-name to .git/BISECT_START for the
extra state, (which is a more descriptive name anyway).

Use git-describe --exact-match in bash prompt on detached HEAD
Most of the time when I am on a detached HEAD and I am not doing
a rebase or bisect operation the working directory is sitting on a
tagged release of the repository. Showing the tag name instead of
the commit SHA-1 is much more descriptive and a much better reminder
of the state of this working directory.
Now that git-describe --exact-match is available as a cheap means
of obtaining the exact annotated tag or nothing at all, we can

Teach git-describe --exact-match to avoid expensive tag searches
Sometimes scripts want (or need) the annotated tag name that exactly
matches a specific commit, or no tag at all. In such cases it can be
difficult to determine if the output of `git describe $commit` is a
real tag name or a tag+abbreviated commit. A common idiom is to run
git-describe twice:
if test $(git describe $commit) = $(git describe --abbrev=0 $commit)
...
but this is a huge waste of time if the caller is just going to pick a
different method to describe $commit or abort because it is not exactly
an annotated tag.
Setting the maximum number of candidates to 0 allows the caller to ask
for only a tag that directly points at the supplied commit, or to have
git-describe abort if no such item exists.

its object from the object database. This avoids opening any of
the head commits reachable from refs/heads/ unless they are also
reachable through the commit we have been asked to describe and
we need to walk through it to find a tag.

Teach git-describe to use peeled ref information when scanning tags
By using the peeled ref information inside of the packed-refs file we
can avoid opening tag objects to obtain the commits they reference.
This speeds up git-describe when there are a large number of tags
in the repository as we have less objects to parse before we can
start commit matching.

Optimize peel_ref for the current ref of a for_each_ref callback
Currently the only caller of peel_ref is show-ref, which is using
this function to show the peeled tag information if it is available
from an existing packed-refs file. The call happens during the
for_each_ref callback function, so we have the proper struct ref_list
already on the call stack but it is not easily available to return
the peeled information to the caller.
We now save the current struct ref_list item before calling back
into the callback function so that future calls to peel_ref from
within the callback function can quickly access the current ref.
Doing so will save us an lstat() per ref processed as we no longer
have to check the filesystem to see if the ref exists as a loose
file or is packed. This current ref caching also saves a linear
scan of the cached packed refs list.
As a micro-optimization we test the address of the passed ref name
against the current_ref->name before we go into the much more costly
strcmp(). Nearly any caller of peel_ref will be passing us the same
string do_for_each_ref passed them, which is current_ref->name.

Be more verbose when checkout takes a long time
So I find it irritating when git thinks for a long time without telling me
what's taking so long. And by "long time" I definitely mean less than two
seconds, which is already way too long for me.
This hits me when doing a large pull and the checkout takes a long time,
or when just switching to another branch that is old and again checkout
takes a while.
Now, git read-tree already had support for the "-v" flag that does nice
updates about what's going on, but it was delayed by two seconds, and if
the thing had already done more than half by then it would be quiet even
after that, so in practice it meant that we migth be quiet for up to four
seconds. Much too long.
So this patch changes the timeout to just one second, which makes it much
more palatable to me.
The other thing this patch does is that "git checkout" now doesn't disable
the "-v" flag when doing its thing, and only disables the output when
given the -q flag. When allowing "checkout -m" to fall back to a 3-way
merge, the users will see the error message from straight "checkout",
so we will tell them that we do fall back to make them look less scary.

pack-objects: Add runtime detection of online CPU's
Packing objects can be done in parallell nowadays, but it's
only done if the config option pack.threads is set to a value
above 1. Because of that, the code-path used is often not the
most optimal one.
This patch adds a routine to detect the number of online CPU's
at runtime (online_cpus()). When pack.threads (or --threads=) is
given a value of 0, the number of threads is set to the number of
online CPU's. This feature is also documented.
As per Nicolas Pitre's recommendations, the default is still to
run pack-objects single-threaded unless explicitly activated,
either by configuration or by command line parameter.
The routine online_cpus() is a rework of "numcpus.c", written by
one Philip Willoughby <pgw99@doc.ic.ac.uk>. numcpus.c is in the
public domain and can presently be downloaded from

Fix name re-hashing semantics
We handled the case of removing and re-inserting cache entries badly,
which is something that merging commonly needs to do (removing the
different stages, and then re-inserting one of them as the merged
state).
We even had a rather ugly special case for this failure case, where
replace_index_entry() basically turned itself into a no-op if the new
and the old entries were the same, exactly because the hash routines
didn't handle it on their own.
So what this patch does is to not just have the UNHASHED bit, but a
HASHED bit too, and when you insert an entry into the name hash, that
involves:
- clear the UNHASHED bit, because now it's valid again for lookup
(which is really all that UNHASHED meant)
- if we're being lazy, we're done here (but we still want to clear the
UNHASHED bit regardless of lazy mode, since we can become unlazy
later, and so we need the UNHASHED bit to always be set correctly,
even if we never actually insert the entry into the hash list)
- if it was already hashed, we just leave it on the list
- otherwise mark it HASHED and insert it into the list
this all means that unhashing and rehashing a name all just works
automatically. Obviously, you cannot change the name of an entry (that
would be a serious bug), but nothing can validly do that anyway (you'd
have to allocate a new struct cache_entry anyway since the name length
could change), so that's not a new limitation.
The code actually gets simpler in many ways, although the lazy hashing
does mean that there are a few odd cases (ie something can be marked
unhashed even though it was never on the hash in the first place, and
isn't actually marked hashed!).

Avoid unnecessary "if-before-free" tests.
This change removes all obvious useless if-before-free tests.
E.g., it replaces code like this:
if (some_expression)
free (some_expression);
with the now-equivalent:
free (some_expression);
It is equivalent not just because POSIX has required free(NULL)
to work for a long time, but simply because it has worked for
so long that no reasonable porting target fails the test.
Here's some evidence from nearly 1.5 years ago:
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2006-October/031544.html
FYI, the change below was prepared by running the following:
git ls-files -z | xargs -0 \
perl -0x3b -pi -e \
's/\bif\s*\(\s*(\S+?)(?:\s*!=\s*NULL)?\s*\)\s+(free\s*\(\s*\1\s*\))/$2/s'
Note however, that it doesn't handle brace-enclosed blocks like
"if (x) { free (x); }". But that's ok, since there were none like
that in git sources.
Beware: if you do use the above snippet, note that it can
produce syntactically invalid C code. That happens when the
affected "if"-statement has a matching "else".
E.g., it would transform this
if (x)
free (x);
else
foo ();
into this:
free (x);
else
foo ();
There were none of those here, either.
If you're interested in automating detection of the useless
tests, you might like the useless-if-before-free script in gnulib:
[it *does* detect brace-enclosed free statements, and has a --name=S
option to make it detect free-like functions with different names]
