git-p4: fix skipSubmitEdit regression
Commit 7c766e5 (git-p4: introduce skipSubmitEdit, 2011-12-04)
made it easier to automate submission to p4, but broke the most
common case.
Add a test for when the user really does edit and save the change
template, and fix the bug that causes the test to fail.
Also add a confirmation message when submission is cancelled.

When showing the raw timestamp, we format the numeric

object. A well-formed object should have a timezone string

pushed by a malicious user.

t: add test harness for external credential helpers
We already have tests for the internal helpers, but it's
nice to give authors of external tools an easy way to
sanity-check their helpers.
If you have written the "git-credential-foo" helper, you can
do so with:
GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=foo \
make t0303-credential-external.sh
This assumes that your helper is capable of both storing and
retrieving credentials (some helpers may be read-only, and
they will fail these tests).
If your helper supports time-based expiration with a
configurable timeout, you can test that feature like this:
GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_TIMEOUT="foo --timeout=1" \
make t0303-credential-external.sh

credentials: add "store" helper
This is like "cache", except that we actually put the

course, but we do what we can to protect them by filesystem
permissions, and we warn the user in the documentation.
This is not unlike using .netrc to store entries, but it's a
little more user-friendly. Instead of putting credentials in
place ahead of time, we transparently store them after
prompting the user for them once.

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
warning: overwriting 'three/one'

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
warning: overwriting 'three/one'

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.

credential: make relevance of http path configurable
When parsing a URL into a credential struct, we carefully
record each part of the URL, including the path on the
remote host, and use the result as part of the credential
context.
This had two practical implications:
1. Credential helpers which store a credential for later
access are likely to use the "path" portion as part of
the storage key. That means that a request to
https://example.com/foo.git
would not use the same credential that was stored in an
earlier request for:
https://example.com/bar.git
2. The prompt shown to the user includes all relevant
context, including the path.
In most cases, however, users will have a single password
per host. The behavior in (1) will be inconvenient, and the
prompt in (2) will be overly long.
This patch introduces a config option to toggle the
relevance of http paths. When turned on, we use the path as
before. When turned off, we drop the path component from the
context: helpers don't see it, and it does not appear in the
prompt.
This is nothing you couldn't do with a clever credential
helper at the start of your stack, like:
[credential "http://"]
helper = "!f() { grep -v ^path= ; }; f"
helper = your_real_helper
But doing this:
[credential]
useHttpPath = false
is way easier and more readable. Furthermore, since most
users will want the "off" behavior, that is the new default.
Users who want it "on" can set the variable (either for all
credentials, or just for a subset using
credential.*.useHttpPath).

credential: apply helper config
The functionality for credential storage helpers is already
there; we just need to give the users a way to turn it on.
This patch provides a "credential.helper" configuration
variable which allows the user to provide one or more helper
strings.
Rather than simply matching credential.helper, we will also
compare URLs in subsection headings to the current context.
This means you can apply configuration to a subset of
credentials. For example:
[credential "https://example.com"]
helper = foo
would match a request for "https://example.com/foo.git", but
not one for "https://kernel.org/foo.git".
This is overkill for the "helper" variable, since users are
unlikely to want different helpers for different sites (and
since helpers run arbitrary code, they could do the matching
themselves anyway).
However, future patches will add new config variables where
this extra feature will be more useful.

http: use credential API to get passwords
This patch converts the http code to use the new credential
API, both for http authentication as well as for getting
certificate passwords.
Most of the code change is simply variable naming (the
passwords are now contained inside the credential struct)
or deletion of obsolete code (the credential code handles
URL parsing and prompting for us).
The behavior should be the same, with one exception: the
credential code will prompt with a description based on the
credential components. Therefore, the old prompt of:
Username for 'example.com':
Password for 'example.com':
now looks like:
Username for 'https://example.com/repo.git':
Password for 'https://user@example.com/repo.git':
Note that we include more information in each line,
specifically:
1. We now include the protocol. While more noisy, this is
an important part of knowing what you are accessing
(especially if you care about http vs https).
2. We include the username in the password prompt. This is
not a big deal when you have just been prompted for it,
but the username may also come from the remote's URL
(and after future patches, from configuration or
credential helpers). In that case, it's a nice
reminder of the user for which you're giving the
password.
3. We include the path component of the URL. In many
cases, the user won't care about this and it's simply
noise (i.e., they'll use the same credential for a
whole site). However, that is part of a larger
question, which is whether path components should be
part of credential context, both for prompting and for
lookup by storage helpers. That issue will be addressed
as a whole in a future patch.
Similarly, for unlocking certificates, we used to say:
Certificate Password for 'example.com':
and we now say:
Password for 'cert:///path/to/certificate':
Showing the path to the client certificate makes more sense,
as that is what you are unlocking, not "example.com".

credential: add function for parsing url components
All of the components of a credential struct can be found in

protocol=http
host=example.com

username=foo

We want to be able to turn URLs into broken-down credential
structs so that we know two things:

2. What the context of the request is (for prompting or
as a key for storing credentials).
This code is based on http_auth_init in http.c, but needed a
few modifications in order to get all of the components that
the credential object is interested in.
Once the http code is switched over to the credential API,
then http_auth_init can just go away.

introduce credentials API
There are a few places in git that need to get a username
and password credential from the user; the most notable one
is HTTP authentication for smart-http pushing.
Right now the only choices for providing credentials are to
put them plaintext into your ~/.netrc, or to have git prompt
you (either on the terminal or via an askpass program). The
former is not very secure, and the latter is not very
convenient.
Unfortunately, there is no "always best" solution for
password management. The details will depend on the tradeoff
you want between security and convenience, as well as how
git can integrate with other security systems (e.g., many
operating systems provide a keychain or password wallet for
single sign-on).
This patch provides an abstract notion of credentials as a
data item, and provides three basic operations:
- fill (i.e., acquire from external storage or from the
user)
- approve (mark a credential as "working" for further
storage)
- reject (mark a credential as "not working", so it can
be removed from storage)
These operations can be backed by external helper processes
that interact with system- or user-specific secure storage.

One place this crops up is when using a P4CONFIG environment

t3040 (subprojects-basic): fix '&&' chaining, modernize style
Breaks in a test assertion's && chain can potentially hide failures
from earlier commands in the chain. Fix instances of this. While at
it, clean up the style to fit the prevailing style. This means:
- Put the opening quote starting each test on the same line as the
test_expect_* invocation.
- Indent the file with tabs, not spaces.
- Use test_expect_code() in preference to checking the exit status of
various statements by hand.
- Guard commands that prepare test input for individual tests in the
same test_expect_success, so that their scope is clearer and errors
at that stage can be caught.
- Use <<-\EOF in preference to <<EOF to save readers the trouble of
looking for variable interpolations.
- Include "setup" in the titles of test assertions that prepare for
later ones to make it more obvious which tests can be skipped.

git-gui: handle shell script text filters when loading for blame.
When loading a file into the blame window git-gui does all the work and

necessary to detect the need for a shell script explicitly.
Such filter commands are run using non-blocking I/O but this has the
unfortunate side effect of losing any error that might be reported when
the pipe is closed. Switching to blocking mode just before closing
enables reporting of errors in the filter scripts to the user.

test: remove a porcelain test that hard-codes commit names
The rev-list output in this test depends on the details of test_tick's
dummy dates and the choice of hash function. Worse, it depends on the
order and nature of commits made in the earlier tests, so adding new
tests or rearranging existing ones breaks it.
It would be nice to check that "git commit" and commit-tree name
objects consistently and that commit objects' text is as documented,
but this particular test checks everything at once and hence is not a
robust test for that. Remove it.

commit: write cache-tree data when writing index anyway
In prepare_index(), we refresh the index, and then write it to disk if
this changed the index data. After running hooks we re-read the index
and compute the root tree sha1 with the cache-tree machinery.
This gives us a mostly free opportunity to write up-to-date cache-tree
data: we can compute it in prepare_index() immediately before writing
the index to disk.
If we do this, we were going to write the index anyway, and the later
cache-tree update has no further work to do. If we don't do it, we
don't do any extra work, though we still don't have have cache-tree
data after the commit.
The only case that suffers badly is when the pre-commit hook changes
many trees in the index. I'm writing this off as highly unusual.

Test the current state of the cache-tree optimization
The cache-tree optimization originally helped speed up write-tree
operation. However, many commands no longer properly maintain -- or
use an opportunity to cheaply generate -- the cache-tree data. In
particular, this affects commit, checkout and reset. The notable
examples that *do* write cache-tree data are read-tree and write-tree.
This sadly means most people no longer benefit from the optimization,
as they would not normally use the plumbing commands.
Document the current state of affairs in a test file, in preparation
for improvements in the area.
