The original patch that became cfe370c (grep: do not segfault when -f is
used, 2009-10-16), was made against "maint" or newer branch back then, but
the fix addressed the issue that was present as far as in 1.6.4 series.
The maintainer backported the patch to the 1.6.4 maintenance branch, but
failed to notice that the new tests assumed the setup done by the script
in "maint", which did quite a lot more than the same test script in 1.6.4
series, and the output didn't match the expected result.
This should fix it.

reset: unbreak hard resets with GIT_WORK_TREE
Commit 952dfc6 tried to tighten the safety valves for doing
a "reset --hard" in a bare repository or outside the work
tree, but accidentally broke the case for GIT_WORK_TREE.
This patch unbreaks it.
Most git commands which need a work tree simply use
NEED_WORK_TREE in git.c to die before they get to their
cmd_* function. Reset, however, only needs a work tree in
some cases, and so must handle the work tree itself. The
error that 952dfc6 made was to simply forbid certain
operations if the work tree was not set up; instead, we need
to do the same thing that NEED_WORK_TREE does, which is to
call setup_work_tree(). We no longer have to worry about dying
in the non-worktree case, as setup_work_tree handles that
for us.

rebase -i: abort cleanly if the editor fails to launch
If the user's configured editor is emacsclient, the editor
will fail to launch if emacs is not running and the git
command that tried to lanuch the editor will abort. For most
commands, all you have to do is to start emacs and repeat
the command.
The "git rebase -i" command, however, aborts without cleaning
the "$GIT_DIR/rebase-merge" directory if it fails to launch the
editor, so you'll need to do "git rebase --abort" before
repeating the rebase command.
Change "git rebase -i" to terminate using "die_abort" (instead of
with "die") if the initial launch of the editor fails.

should just fail instead.
Currently the function returns NULL even inside .git/ in a repository

ignore unknown color configuration
When parsing the config file, if there is a value that is
syntactically correct but unused, we generally ignore it.
This lets non-core porcelains store arbitrary information in
the config file, and it means that configuration files can
be shared between new and old versions of git (the old
versions might simply ignore certain configuration).
The one exception to this is color configuration; if we
encounter a color.{diff,branch,status}.$slot variable, we
die if it is not one of the recognized slots (presumably as
a safety valve for user misconfiguration). This behavior
has existed since 801235c (diff --color: use
$GIT_DIR/config, 2006-06-24), but hasn't yet caused a
problem. No porcelain has wanted to store extra colors, and
we once a color area (like color.diff) has been introduced,
we've never changed the set of color slots.
However, that changed recently with the addition of
color.diff.func. Now a user with color.diff.func in their
config can no longer freely switch between v1.6.6 and older
versions; the old versions will complain about the existence
of the variable.
This patch loosens the check to match the rest of
git-config; unknown color slots are simply ignored. This
doesn't fix this particular problem, as the older version
(without this patch) is the problem, but it at least
prevents it from happening again in the future.

config can no longer freely switch between v1.6.6 and older
versions; the old versions will complain about the existence
of the variable.
This patch loosens the check to match the rest of
git-config; unknown color slots are simply ignored. This
doesn't fix this particular problem, as the older version
(without this patch) is the problem, but it at least
prevents it from happening again in the future.

help.autocorrect: do not run a command if the command given is junk
If a given command is not found, then help.c tries to guess which one the
user could have meant. If help.autocorrect is 0 or unset, then a list of
suggestions is given as long as the dissimilarity between the given command
and the candidates is not excessively high. But if help.autocorrect was
non-zero (i.e., a delay after which the command is run automatically), the
latter restriction on dissimilarity was not obeyed.
In my case, this happened:
$ git ..daab02
WARNING: You called a Git command named '..daab02', which does not exist.
Continuing under the assumption that you meant 'read-tree'
in 4.0 seconds automatically...
The patch reuses the similarity limit that is also applied when the list of
suggested commands is printed.

Fix archive format with -- on the command line
Giving --format from the command line, or using output file extention to
DWIM the output format, with a pathspec that is disambiguated with an
explicit double-dash on the command line, e.g.
git archive -o file --format=zip HEAD -- path
git archive -o file.zip HEAD -- path
didn't work correctly.
This was because the code reordered (when one was given) or added (when
the format was inferred) a --format argument at the end, effectively
making it to "archive HEAD -- path --format=zip", i.e. an extra pathspec
that is unlikely to match anything.
The command line argument list should always be "options, revs and then
paths", and we should set a good example by inserting the --format at the
beginning instead.

Commit 24ab81a fixed the deletion of empty files, but broke
deletion of non-empty files. The approach it took was to
factor out the "deleted" line from the patch header into its
own hunk, the same way we do for mode changes. However,
unlike mode changes, we only showed the special "delete this
file" hunk if there were no other hunks. Otherwise, the user
would annoyingly be presented with _two_ hunks: one for
deleting the file and one for deleting the content.
This meant that in the non-empty case, we forgot about the
deleted line entirely, and we submitted a bogus patch to
git-apply (with "/dev/null" as the destination file, but not
marked as a deletion).
Instead, this patch combines the file deletion hunk and the
content deletion hunk (if there is one) into a single
deletion hunk which is either staged or not.

Fix diff -B/--dirstat miscounting of newly added contents
What used to happen is that diffcore_count_changes() simply ignored any
hashes in the destination that didn't match hashes in the source. EXCEPT
if the source hash didn't exist at all, in which case it would count _one_
destination hash that happened to have the "next" hash value. As a
consequence, newly added material was often undercounted, making output
from --dirstat and "complete rewrite" detection used by -B unrelialble.
This changes it so that:
- whenever it bypasses a destination hash (because it doesn't match a
source), it counts the bytes associated with that as "literal added"
- at the end (once we have used up all the source hashes), we do the same
thing with the remaining destination hashes.
- when hashes do match, and we use the difference in counts as a value,
we also use up that destination hash entry (the 'd++').

reset: improve worktree safety valves
The existing code checked to make sure we were not in a bare
repository when doing a hard reset. However, we should take
this one step further, and make sure we are in a worktree.
Otherwise, we can end up munging files inside of '.git'.
Furthermore, we should do the same check for --merge resets,
which have the same properties. Actually, a merge reset of
HEAD^ would already complain, since further down in the code
we want a worktree. However, it is nicer to check up-front;
then we are sure we cover all cases ("git reset --merge"
would run, even though it wasn't doing anything) and we can
give a more specific message.
Add tests to t7103 to cover these cases and some missing ones.

Documentation: xmlto 0.0.18 does not know --stringparam
Newer DocBook stylesheets want man.base.url.for.relative.links
parameter set when formatting manpages with external references
to turn them into full URLs, and leave a helpful "you should
set this parameter" message in the output. Earlier we added
the MAN_BASE_URL make variable to specify the value for it.
When MAN_BASE_URL is not given, it ought to be safe to set the
parameter to empty; it would result in an empty leading path for
older stylesheets that ignore the parameter, and newer ones
would produce the same "relative URL" without the message.
Unfortunately, older xmlto (at least version 0.0.18 released in
early 2004 that comes with RHEL/CentOS 5) does not understand
the --stringparam command line option, so we cannot add the
parameter definition unconditionally to the command line. Work
it around by passing the parameter only when set.
If you do not have a suitable URL prefix, you can pass a quoted empty
string to it, like so:
$ make MAN_BASE_URL='""'

Even setting it to empty is better than leaving it unset as it

merge: do not add standard message when message is given with -m option
Even if the user explicitly gave her own message to "git merge", the
command still added its standard merge message. It resulted in a
useless repetition like this:
% git merge -m "Merge early part of side branch" `git rev-parse side~2`
% git show -s

Do not misidentify "git merge foo HEAD" as an old-style invocation
This was misinterpreted as an ancient style "git merge <message> HEAD
<commit> <commit>..." that merges one (or more) <commit> into the current
branch and record the resulting commit with the given message. Then a
later sanity check found that there is no <commit> specified and gave
a usage message.

help: Do not unnecessarily look for a repository
Although 'git help' actually doesn't need to be run inside a git
repository and uses no repository-specific information, it looks for a git
directory. Searching for a git directory can be annoying in auto-mount
environments. With this commit, 'git help' no longer searches for a
repository when run without any options.
7c3baa9 originally modified 'git help -a' to not require a repository.
This applies the same fix for 'git help'.

builtin-merge.c: call exclude_cmds() correctly.
We need to call exclude_cmds() after the loop, not during the loop, because
excluding a command from the array can change the indexes of objects in the

weren't excluded as they should have been.

Remove dead code from "git am"
Ever since the initial implementation, "git am" had kept a dead code that
never triggered due to a typo in the variable name. Worse yet, the code,
if it weren't for the typo, would have attempted to add "[PATCH] " at the
beginning of the Subject: header when "git am" is run with its "-k"
option. However, because "git am -k" tells mailinfo to keep such prefix
when parsing the input, the "[PATCH] " added by this dead code would have
really been unnecessary duplicate.
Embarrassing is that we kept _maintaining_ the codepath without anybody
noticing for four years.

builtin-apply.c: pay attention to -p<n> when determining the name
The patch structure has def_name component that is used to validate the
sanity of a "diff --git" patch by checking pathnames that appear on the
patch header lines for consistency. The git_header_name() function is
used to compute this out of "diff --git a/... b/..." line, but the code
always stripped one level of prefix (i.e. "a/" and "b/"), without paying
attention to -p<n> option. Code in find_name() function that parses other
lines in the patch header (e.g. "--- a/..." and "+++ b/..." lines) however
did strip the correct number of leading paths prefixes, and the sanity
check between these computed values failed.
Teach git_header_name() to honor -p<n> option like find_name() function
does.
Found and reported by Steven J. Murdoch who also wrote tests.

pack-objects: split implications of --all-progress from progress activation
Currently the --all-progress flag is used to use force progress display
during the writing object phase even if output goes to stdout which is
primarily the case during a push operation. This has the unfortunate
side effect of forcing progress display even if stderr is not a
terminal.
Let's introduce the --all-progress-implied argument which has the same
intent except for actually forcing the activation of any progress
display. With this, progress display will be automatically inhibited
whenever stderr is not a terminal, or full progress display will be
included otherwise. This should let people use 'git push' within a cron
job without filling their logs with useless percentage displays.

instaweb: restart server if already running
Running 'git instaweb' when an instaweb server is already running will
fail (at least when the port is the same) and overwrite the pid file
used to track the currently running server. This turns out to be
especially annoying when the user tries to stop the previously running
server with 'git instaweb --stop' and is instead greeted with an error
message because the pid file has been destroyed.
Instead of allowing a user to start two instaweb servers, stop the
currently running server first and then start the new one. This should
be fine because it was never really possible to start two instaweb
servers in the first place due to the pid file issue outlined above.
