Reproduce with any valid old/new patch from which you have removed

and you'll find that FILE has been removed.

The above is on glibc-based systems.  On other systems, rather than

they appear with no value in the config file. As a result, we got:

Makefile: do not set setgid bit on directories on GNU/kFreeBSD

The g+s bit on directories to make group ownership inherited is a
SysVism --- BSD and most of its descendants do not need it since they
do the sane thing by default without g+s.  In fact, on some
filesystems (but not all --- tmpfs works this way but UFS does not),
the kernel of FreeBSD does not even allow non-root users to set setgid
bit on directories and produces errors when one tries:

$ git init --shared dir
fatal: Could not make /tmp/dir/.git/refs writable by group

Since the setgid bit would only mean "do what you were going to do
already", it's better to avoid setting it.  Accordingly, ever since
v1.5.5-rc0~59^2 (Do not use GUID on dir in git init --share=all on
FreeBSD, 2008-03-05), git on true FreeBSD has done exactly that.  Set
DIR_HAS_BSD_GROUP_SEMANTICS in the makefile for GNU/kFreeBSD, too, so
machines that use glibc with the kernel of FreeBSD get the same fix.

This fixes t0001-init.sh and t1301-shared-repo.sh on GNU/kFreeBSD
when running tests with --root pointing to a directory that uses
tmpfs.

   and add them to the index;

 - Check out the contents from the index for paths that match the

Suppose that the branch you are working on has dir/myfile, and the "other"
branch has dir/other but not dir/myfile. Further imagine that you have
either modified or removed dir/myfile in your working tree, but you have
not run "git add dir/myfile" or "git rm dir/myfile" to tell Git about your

 $ git checkout other dir

local changes to "dir/myfile", even though "other" branch does not even

     (had a hash part).  This lead to the incorrect links like this

directories") because back then, the list of paths is used to match
sparse patterns, so with the patterns

    *
    !subdir/

subdir/ always matches any path that start with subdir/ and "*" has no
chance to get tested. The result is subdir is excluded.

After the said commit, a tree structure is dynamically created and
sparse pattern matching now follows closely how read_directory()
applies .gitignore. This solves one problem, but reveals another one.

With this new strategy, "!subdir/" rule will be only tested once when
"subdir" directory is examined. Entries inside subdir, when examined,
will match "*" and are (correctly) re-added again because any rules
without a slash will match at every directory level. In the end, "*"
can revert every negation rules.

In order to correctly exclude subdir, we must use

    /*
    !subdir

to limit "match all" rule at top level only.

"*" rule has no actual use in sparse checkout and can be confusing to
users. While we can automatically turn "*" to "/*", this violates
.gitignore definition. Instead, discourage "*" in favor of "/*" (in

t4014: clean up format.thread config after each test

The threading tests turn on format.thread, but never clean
up after themselves, meaning that later tests will also have
format.thread set.

This is more annoying than most leftover config, too,
because not only does it impact the results of other tests,
but it does so non-deterministically. Threading requires the
generation of message-ids, which incorporate the current
time, meaning a slow-running test script may generate
different results from run to run.

branch --set-upstream: regression fix

even when the target branch already exists, and it does so even when it is
not interested in updating the value of the branch (i.e. the name of the
commit object that sits at the tip of the existing branch). This happens
when the command is run with "--set-upstream" option.

The earlier safety-measure to prevent "git branch -f $branch $commit" from
updating the currently checked out branch did not take it into account,
and we no longer can update the tracking information of the current branch.

Minimally fix this regression by telling the validation code if it is
called to really update the value of a potentially existing branch, or if
the caller merely is interested in updating auxiliary aspects of a branch.

git-svn: teach git-svn to populate svn:mergeinfo

Allow git-svn to populate the svn:mergeinfo property automatically in
a narrow range of circumstances. Specifically, when dcommitting a
revision with multiple parents, all but (potentially) the first of
which have been committed to SVN in the same repository as the target
of the dcommit.

In this case, the merge info is the union of that given by each of the
parents, plus all changes introduced to the first parent by the other
parents.

In all other cases where a revision to be committed has multiple
parents, cause "git svn dcommit" to raise an error rather than
completing the commit and potentially losing history information in
the upstream SVN repository.

This behavior is disabled by default, and can be enabled by setting
the svn.pushmergeinfo config option.
