http-push: enable "proactive auth"
Before commit 986bbc08, git was proactive about asking for
http passwords. It assumed that if you had a username in
your URL, you would also want a password, and asked for it
before making any http requests.
However, this could interfere with the use of .netrc (see
986bbc08 for details). And it was also unnecessary, since
the http fetching code had learned to recognize an HTTP 401
and prompt the user then. Furthermore, the proactive prompt
could interfere with the usage of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for
details).
Unfortunately, the http push-over-DAV code never learned to
recognize HTTP 401, and so was broken by this change. This
patch does a quick fix of re-enabling the "proactive auth"
strategy only for http-push, leaving the dumb http fetch and
smart-http as-is.

t5540: test DAV push with authentication
We don't currently test this case at all, and instead just
test the DAV mechanism over an unauthenticated push. That
isn't very realistic, as most people will want to
authenticate pushes.
Two of the tests expect_failure as they reveal bugs:
1. Pushing without a username in the URL fails to ask for
credentials when we get an HTTP 401. This has always
been the case, but it would be nice if it worked like
smart-http.
2. Pushing with a username fails to ask for the password
since 986bbc0 (http: don't always prompt for password,
2011-11-04). This is a severe regression in v1.7.8, as
authenticated push-over-DAV is now totally unusable
unless you have credentials in your .netrc.

fetch-pack: match refs exactly
When we are determining the list of refs to fetch via
fetch-pack, we have two sets of refs to compare: those on
the remote side, and a "match" list of things we want to
fetch. We iterate through the remote refs alphabetically,
seeing if each one is wanted by the "match" list.
Since def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack",
2005-07-04), we have used the "path_match" function to do a
suffix match, where a remote ref is considered wanted if
any of the "match" elements is a suffix of the remote
refname.
This enables callers of fetch-pack to specify unqualified
refs and have them matched up with remote refs (e.g., ask
for "A" and get remote's "refs/heads/A"). However, if you
provide a fully qualified ref, then there are corner cases
where we provide the wrong answer. For example, given a
remote with two refs:
refs/foo/refs/heads/master
refs/heads/master
asking for "refs/heads/master" will first match
"refs/foo/refs/heads/master" by the suffix rule, and we will
erroneously fetch it instead of refs/heads/master.
As it turns out, all callers of fetch_pack do provide
fully-qualified refs for the match list. There are two ways
fetch_pack can get match lists:
1. Through the transport code (i.e., via git-fetch)
2. On the command-line of git-fetch-pack
In the first case, we will always be providing the names of
fully-qualified refs from "struct ref" objects. We will have
pre-matched those ref objects already (since we have to
handle more advanced matching, like wildcard refspecs), and
are just providing a list of the refs whose objects we need.
In the second case, users could in theory be providing
non-qualified refs on the command-line. However, the
fetch-pack documentation claims that refs should be fully
qualified (and has always done so since it was written in
2005).
Let's change this path_match call to simply check for string
equality, matching what the callers of fetch_pack are
expecting.

unspecified, update from all heads the remote side has.

drop "match" parameter from get_remote_heads
The get_remote_heads function reads the list of remote refs
during git protocol session. It dates all the way back to
def88e9 (Commit first cut at "git-fetch-pack", 2005-07-04).
At that time, the idea was to come up with a list of refs we
were interested in, and then filter the list as we got it
from the remote side.
Later, 1baaae5 (Make maximal use of the remote refs,
2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.
As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

2005-10-28) stopped filtering at the get_remote_heads layer,
letting us use the non-matching refs to find common history.
As a result, all callers now simply pass an empty match
list (and any future callers will want to do the same). So
let's drop these now-useless parameters.

mv: be quiet about overwriting
When a user asks us to force a mv and overwrite the
destination, we print a warning. However, since a typical
use would be:
$ git mv one two
fatal: destination exists, source=one, destination=two
$ git mv -f one two
warning: overwriting 'two'
this warning is just noise. We already know we're
overwriting; that's why we gave -f!
This patch silences the warning unless "--verbose" is given.

mv: improve overwrite warning
When we try to "git mv" over an existing file, the error
message is fairly informative:
$ git mv one two
fatal: destination exists, source=one, destination=two
When the user forces the overwrite, we give a warning:
$ git mv -f one two
warning: destination exists; will overwrite!
This is less informative, but still sufficient in the simple
rename case, as there is only one rename happening.
But when moving files from one directory to another, it
becomes useless:
$ mkdir three
$ touch one two three/one
$ git add .
$ git mv one two three
fatal: destination exists, source=one, destination=three/one
$ git mv -f one two three
warning: destination exists; will overwrite!
The first message is helpful, but the second one gives us no
clue about what was overwritten. Let's mention the name of
the destination file:
$ git mv -f one two three

revert: do not remove state until sequence is finished
As v1.7.8-rc0~141^2~4 (2011-08-04) explains, git cherry-pick removes
the sequencer state just before applying the final patch. In the
single-pick case, that was a good thing, since --abort and --continue
work fine without access to such state and removing it provides a
signal that git should not complain about the need to clobber it ("a
cherry-pick or revert is already in progress") in sequences like the
following:
git cherry-pick foo
git read-tree -m -u HEAD; # forget that; let's try a different one
git cherry-pick bar
After the recent patch "allow single-pick in the middle of cherry-pick
sequence" we don't need that hack any more. In the new regime, a
traditional "git cherry-pick <commit>" command never looks at
.git/sequencer, so we do not need to cripple "git cherry-pick
<commit>..<commit>" for it any more.
So now you can run "git cherry-pick --abort" near the end of a
multi-pick sequence and it will abort the entire sequence, instead of
misbehaving and aborting just the final commit.

Future callers as other commands are built in (am, rebase, sequencer)

revert: allow cherry-pick --continue to commit before resuming
When "git cherry-pick ..bar" encounters conflicts, permit the operator
to use cherry-pick --continue after resolving them as a shortcut for
"git commit && git cherry-pick --continue" to record the resolution
and carry on with the rest of the sequence.
This improves the analogy with "git rebase" (in olden days --continue
was the way to preserve authorship when a rebase encountered
conflicts) and fits well with a general UI goal of making "git cmd
--continue" save humans the trouble of deciding what to do next.
Example: after encountering a conflict from running "git cherry-pick
foo bar baz":
CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in main.c
error: could not apply f78a8d98c... bar!
hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths
hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
hint: and commit the result with 'git commit'
We edit main.c to resolve the conflict, mark it acceptable with "git
add main.c", and can run "cherry-pick --continue" to resume the
sequence.
$ git cherry-pick --continue
[editor opens to confirm commit message]
[master 78c8a8c98] bar!
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
[master 87ca8798c] baz!
1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)

mv: make non-directory destination error more clear
If you try to "git mv" multiple files onto another
non-directory file, you confusingly get the "usage" message:
$ touch one two three
$ git add .
$ git mv one two three
usage: git mv [options] <source>... <destination>
[...]
From the user's perspective, that makes no sense. They just
gave parameters that exactly match that usage!
This behavior dates back to the original C version of "git
mv", which had a usage message like:
usage: git mv (<source> <destination> | <source>... <destination>)
This was slightly less confusing, because it at least
mentions that there are two ways to invoke (but it still
isn't clear why what the user provided doesn't work).
Instead, let's show an error message like:
$ git mv one two three
fatal: destination 'three' is not a directory
We could leave the usage message in place, too, but it
doesn't actually help here. It contains no hints that there
are two forms, nor that multi-file form requires that the
endpoint be a directory. So it just becomes useless noise
that distracts from the real error.

compat/snprintf: don't look at va_list twice
If you define SNPRINTF_RETURNS_BOGUS, we use a special
git_vsnprintf wrapper assumes that vsnprintf returns "-1"
instead of the number of characters that you would need to
store the result.
To do this, it invokes vsnprintf multiple times, growing a
heap buffer until we have enough space to hold the result.
However, this means we evaluate the va_list parameter
multiple times, which is generally a bad thing (it may be
modified by calls to vsnprintf, yielding undefined
behavior).
Instead, we must va_copy it and hand the copy to vsnprintf,
so we always have a pristine va_list.

builtin/apply.c: report error on failure to recognize input
When git apply is passed something that is not a patch, it does not produce
an error message or exit with a non-zero status if it was not actually
"applying" the patch i.e. --check or --numstat etc were supplied on the
command line.
Fix this by producing an error when apply fails to find any hunks whatsoever
while parsing the patch.
This will cause some of the output formats (--numstat, --diffstat, etc) to

When git apply is passed something that is not a patch, it does not produce
an error message or exit with a non-zero status if it was not actually
"applying" the patch i.e. --check or --numstat etc were supplied on the
command line.
Fix this by producing an error when apply fails to find any hunks whatsoever
while parsing the patch.
This will cause some of the output formats (--numstat, --diffstat, etc) to

t/t4131-apply-fake-ancestor.sh: fix broken test
The third test "apply --build-fake-ancestor in a subdirectory" has been
broken since it was introduced. It intended to modify a tracked file named
'sub/3.t' and then produce a diff which could be git apply'ed, but the file
named 'sub/3.t' does not exist. The file that exists in the repo is called
'sub/3'. Since no tracked files were modified, an empty diff was produced,
and the test succeeded.
Correct this test by supplying the intended name of the tracked file,
'sub/3.t', to test_commit in the first test.

fast-import: Fix incorrect fanout level when modifying existing notes refs
This fixes the bug uncovered by the tests added in the previous two patches.
When an existing notes ref was loaded into the fast-import machinery, the
num_notes counter associated with that ref remained == 0, even though the
true number of notes in the loaded ref was higher. This caused a fanout
level of 0 to be used, although the actual fanout of the tree could be > 0.
Manipulating the notes tree at an incorrect fanout level causes removals to
silently fail, and modifications of existing notes to instead produce an
additional note (leaving the old object in place at a different fanout level).
This patch fixes the bug by explicitly counting the number of notes in the
notes tree whenever it looks like the num_notes counter could be wrong (when
num_notes == 0). There may be false positives (i.e. triggering the counting
when the notes tree is truly empty), but in those cases, the counting should
not take long.

t9301: Fix testcase covering up a bug in fast-import's notes fanout handling
There is a bug in fast-import where the fanout levels of an existing notes
tree being loaded into the fast-import machinery is disregarded. Instead, any
tree loaded is assumed to have a fanout level of 0. If the true fanout level
is deeper, any attempt to remove a note from that tree will silently fail
(as the note will not be found at fanout level 0).
However, this bug was covered up by the way in which the t9301 testcase was
written: When generating the fast-import commands to test mass removal of
notes, we appended these commands to an already existing 'input' file which
happened to already contain the fast-import commands used in the previous
subtest to generate the very same notes tree. This would normally be harmless
(but suboptimal) as the notes created were identical to the notes already
present in the notes tree. But the act of repeating all the notes additions
caused the internal fast-import data structures to recalculate the fanout,
instead of hanging on to the initial (incorrect) fanout (that causes the bug
described above). Thus, the subsequent removal of notes in the same 'input'
file would succeed, thereby covering up the bug described above.
This patch creates a new 'input' file instead of appending to the file from
the previous subtest. Thus, we end up properly testing removal of notes that
were added by a previous fast-import command. As a side effect, the notes
removal can no longer refer to commits using the marks set by the previous
fast-import run, instead the commits names must be referenced directly.
The underlying fast-import bug is still present after this patch, but now we
have at least uncovered it. Therefore, the affected subtests are labeled as
expected failures until the underlying bug is fixed.

revert --abort: do not leave behind useless sequencer-old directory
The "git cherry-pick --abort" command currently renames the
.git/sequencer directory to .git/sequencer-old instead of removing it
on success due to an accident. cherry-pick --abort is designed to
work in three steps:
1) find which commit to roll back to
2) call "git reset --merge <commit>" to move to that commit
3) remove the .git/sequencer directory
But the careless author forgot step 3 entirely. The only reason the
command worked anyway is that "git reset --merge <commit>" renames the
.git/sequencer directory as a secondary effect --- after moving to
<commit>, or so the logic goes, it is unlikely but possible that the
caller of git reset wants to continue the series of cherry-picks that
was in progress, so git renames the sequencer state to
.git/sequencer-old to be helpful while allowing the cherry-pick to be
resumed if the caller did not want to end the sequence after all.
By running "git cherry-pick --abort", the operator has clearly
indicated that she is not planning to continue cherry-picking. Remove
the (renamed) .git/sequencer directory as intended all along.

revert: write REVERT_HEAD pseudoref during conflicted revert
When conflicts are encountered while reverting a commit, it can be
handy to have the name of that commit easily available. For example,
to produce a copy of the patch to refer to while resolving conflicts:
$ git revert 2eceb2a8
error: could not revert 2eceb2a8... awesome, buggy feature
$ git show -R REVERT_HEAD >the-patch
$ edit $(git diff --name-only)
Set a REVERT_HEAD pseudoref when "git revert" does not make a commit,
for cases like this. This also makes it possible for scripts to
distinguish between a revert that encountered conflicts and other
sources of an unmerged index.
After successfully committing, resetting with "git reset", or moving
to another commit with "git checkout" or "git reset", the pseudoref is
no longer useful, so remove it.

revert: improve error message for cherry-pick during cherry-pick
In the spirit of v1.6.3.3~3^2 (refuse to merge during a merge,
2009-07-01), "git cherry-pick" refuses to start a new cherry-pick when
in the middle of an existing conflicted cherry-pick in the following
sequence:
1. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
2. resolve conflicts
3. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin (instead of "git cherry-pick
--continue", by mistake)
Good. However, the error message on attempting step 3 is more
convoluted than necessary:
$ git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
error: .git/sequencer already exists.
error: A cherry-pick or revert is in progress.
hint: Use --continue to continue the operation
hint: or --quit to forget about it
fatal: cherry-pick failed
Clarify by removing the redundant first "error:" message, simplifying
the advice, and using lower-case and no full stops to be consistent
with other commands that prefix their messages with "error:", so it
becomes
error: a cherry-pick or revert is already in progress
hint: try "git cherry-pick (--continue | --quit)"
fatal: cherry-pick failed
The "fatal: cherry-pick failed" line seems unnecessary, too, but
that can be fixed some other day.

In the spirit of v1.6.3.3~3^2 (refuse to merge during a merge,
2009-07-01), "git cherry-pick" refuses to start a new cherry-pick when
in the middle of an existing conflicted cherry-pick in the following
sequence:
1. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
2. resolve conflicts
3. git cherry-pick HEAD..origin (instead of "git cherry-pick
--continue", by mistake)
Good. However, the error message on attempting step 3 is more
convoluted than necessary:
$ git cherry-pick HEAD..origin
error: .git/sequencer already exists.
error: A cherry-pick or revert is in progress.
hint: Use --continue to continue the operation
hint: or --quit to forget about it

revert: rearrange pick_revisions() for clarity
Deal completely with "cherry-pick --quit" and --continue at the
beginning of pick_revisions(), leaving the rest of the function for
the more interesting "git cherry-pick <commits>" case.
No functional change intended. The impact is just to unindent the
code a little.
