bash: simple reimplementation of _get_comp_words_by_ref
Add a minimal implementation of _get_comp_words_by_ref so
$ git show head:g <tab><tab>
on bash 4 can complete paths within the head commit without requiring
the bash_completion functions to be loaded. This is a follow-up to
the previous patch (bash: get --pretty=m<tab> completion to work with
bash v4).
Based on bash-completion 2.x (commit bf763033, 2010-10-26) but tweaked
for simplicity and to allow zsh to parse the code.

bash: get --pretty=m<tab> completion to work with bash v4
Bash's programmable completion provides the COMP_WORDS array variable,
which holds the individual words in the current command line. In bash
versions prior to v4 "words are split on shell metacharacters as the
shell parser would separate them" (quote from bash v3.2.48's man
page). This behavior has changed with bash v4, and the command line
"is split into words as readline would split it, using COMP_WORDBREAKS
as" "the set of characters that the readline library treats as word
separators" (quote from bash v4's man page).
Since COMP_WORDBREAKS contains the characters : and = by default, this
behavior change in bash affects git's completion script. For example,
before bash 4, running
$ git log --pretty=m <tab><tab>
would give a list of pretty-printing formats starting with 'm' but now
it completes on branch names.
It would be possible to work around this by removing '=' and ':' from
COMP_WORDBREAKS, but as noticed in v1.5.6.4~9^2 (bash completion:
Resolve git show ref:path<tab> losing ref: portion, 2008-07-15), that
would break *other* completion scripts. The bash-completion library
includes a better workaround: the _get_comp_words_by_ref function
re-assembles a copy of COMP_WORDS, excluding a collection of word
separators of the caller's choice. Use it.
As a bonus, this also improves behavior when tab is pressed with the
cursor in the middle of a word.
To avoid breaking setups with the bash-completion library not already
loaded, if the _get_comp_words_by_ref function is not defined then a
shim that just reads COMP_WORDS will be used instead (no change from
the current behavior in that case).

Generally, trailing space is removed from the string matched by the
xfuncname patterns. The exception is when the matched string exceeds the
length of the fixed-size buffer that it will be copied in to. But, a
string that exceeds the buffer can still contain trailing space in the
portion of the string that will be copied into the buffer. So, simplify
this code slightly, and just perform the trailing space removal always.

Fix 'git log' early pager startup error case
We start the pager too early for several git commands, which results in
the errors sometimes going to the pager rather than show up as errors.
This is often hidden by the fact that we pass in '-X' to less by default,
which causes 'less' to exit for small output, but if you do
export LESS=-S
you can then clearly see the problem by doing
git log --prretty
which shows the error message ("fatal: unrecognized argument: --prretty")
being sent to the pager.
This happens for pretty much all git commands that use USE_PAGER, and then
check arguments separately. But "git diff" does it too early too (even
though it does an explicit setup_pager() call)
This only fixes it for the trivial "git log" family case.

fix >4GiB source delta assertion failure
When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, they
get this assertion:
diff-delta.c:285: create_delta_index: Assertion `packed_entry - (struct index_entry *)mem == entries' failed.
This happens because:
1) the 'entries' variable is an unsigned int
2) it is assigned with entries = (bufsize - 1) / RABIN_WINDOW
(that itself is not a problem unless bufsize > 4G * RABIN_WINDOW)
3) the buffer is indexed from top to bottom starting at
"data = buffer + entries * RABIN_WINDOW" and the multiplication
here does indeed overflows, making the resulting top of the buffer
much lower than expected.
This makes the number of actually produced index entries smaller than
what was computed initially, hence the assertion.
Furthermore, the current delta encoding format cannot represent offsets
into a reference buffer with more than 32 bits anyway. So let's just
limit the number of entries to what the delta format can encode.

diff --follow: do call diffcore_std() as necessary
Usually, diff frontends populate the output queue with filepairs without
any rename information and call diffcore_std() to sort the renames out.
When --follow is in effect, however, diff-tree family of frontend has a
hack that looks like this:
diff-tree frontend
-> diff_tree_sha1()
. populate diff_queued_diff
. if --follow is in effect and there is only one change that
creates the target path, then
-> try_to_follow_renames()
-> diff_tree_sha1() with no pathspec but with -C
-> diffcore_std() to find renames
. if rename is found, tweak diff_queued_diff and put a
single filepair that records the found rename there
-> diffcore_std()
. tweak elements on diff_queued_diff by
- rename detection
- path ordering
- pickaxe filtering
We need to skip parts of the second call to diffcore_std() that is related
to rename detection, and do so only when try_to_follow_renames() did find
a rename. Earlier 1da6175 (Make diffcore_std only can run once before a
diff_flush, 2010-05-06) tried to deal with this issue incorrectly; it
unconditionally disabled any second call to diffcore_std().
This hopefully fixes the breakage.

diff --follow: do not waste cycles while recursing
The "--follow" logic is called from diff_tree_sha1() function, but the
input trees to diff_tree_sha1() are not necessarily the top-level trees
(compare_tree_entry() calls it while it recursively descends into
subtrees). When a newly created path lives in somewhere deep in the
source hierarchy, e.g. "platform/", but the rename source is in a totally
different place in the destination hierarchy, e.g. "lang-api/src/com/...",
running "try_to_find_renames()" while base is set to "platform/" is a
wasted call.
We only need to run the rename following at the very top level.

pull --rebase: Avoid spurious conflicts and reapplying unnecessary patches
Prior to c85c792 (pull --rebase: be cleverer with rebased upstream
branches, 2008-01-26), pull --rebase would run
git rebase $merge_head
which resulted in a call to
git format-patch ... --ignore-if-in-upstream $merge_head..$cur_branch
This resulted in patches from $merge_head..$cur_branch being applied, as
long as they did not already exist in $cur_branch..$merge_head.
Unfortunately, when upstream is rebased, $merge_head..$cur_branch also
refers to "old" commits that have already been rebased upstream, meaning
that many patches that were already fixed upstream would be reapplied.
This could result in many spurious conflicts, as well as reintroduce
patches that were intentionally dropped upstream.
So the algorithm was changed in c85c792 (pull --rebase: be cleverer with
rebased upstream branches, 2008-01-26) and d44e712 (pull: support rebased
upstream + fetch + pull --rebase, 2009-07-19). Defining $old_remote_ref to
be the most recent entry in the reflog for @{upstream} that is an ancestor
of $cur_branch, pull --rebase was changed to run
git rebase --onto $merge_head $old_remote_ref
which results in a call to
git format-patch ... --ignore-if-in-upstream $old_remote_ref..$cur_branch
The whole point of this change was to reduce the number of commits being
reapplied, by avoiding commits that upstream already has or had.
In the rebased upstream case, this change achieved that purpose. It is
worth noting, though, that since $old_remote_ref is always an ancestor of
$cur_branch (by its definition), format-patch will not know what upstream
is and thus will not be able to determine if any patches are already
upstream; they will all be reapplied.
In the non-rebased upstream case, this new form is usually the same as the
original code but in some cases $old_remote_ref can be an ancestor of
$(git merge-base $merge_head $cur_branch)
meaning that instead of avoiding reapplying commits that upstream already
has, it actually includes more such commits. Combined with the fact that
format-patch can no longer detect commits that are already upstream (since
it is no longer told what upstream is), results in lots of confusion for
users (e.g. "git is giving me lots of conflicts in stuff I didn't even
change since my last push.")
Cases where additional commits could be reapplied include forking from a
commit other than the tracking branch, or amending/rebasing after pushing.
Cases where the inability to detect upstreamed commits cause problems
include independent discovery of a fix and having your patches get
upstreamed by some alternative route (e.g. pulling your changes to a third
machine, pushing from there, and then going back to your original machine
and trying to pull --rebase).
Fix the non-rebased upstream case by ignoring $old_remote_ref whenever it
is contained in $(git merge-base $merge_head $cur_branch). This should
have no affect on the rebased upstream case.

fast-import: export correctly marks larger than 2^20-1
dump_marks_helper() has a bug when dumping marks larger than 2^20-1,

that the 'base' counter was being shifted by 20 bits at level 3, and
then again by 10 bits at level 2, rather than a total shift of 20 bits
in this argument to the recursive call:
(base + k) << m->shift
There are two ways to fix this correctly, the elegant:
(base + k) << 10
and the one I chose due to edit distance:
base + (k << m->shift)

diff: strip extra "/" when stripping prefix
There are two ways a user might want to use "diff --relative":
1. For a file in a directory, like "subdir/file", the user
can use "--relative=subdir/" to strip the directory.
2. To strip part of a filename, like "foo-10", they can
use "--relative=foo-".
We currently handle both of those situations. However, if the user passes
"--relative=subdir" (without the trailing slash), we produce inconsistent
results. For the unified diff format, we collapse the double-slash of
"a//file" correctly into "a/file". But for other formats (raw, stat,
name-status), we end up with "/file".
We can do what the user means here and strip the extra "/" (and only a
slash). We are not hurting any existing users of (2) above with this
behavior change because the existing output for this case was nonsensical.

Merge branch 'maint'
Foo: a demonstration project
Without a list of hits to compare it to, the header describing the

like a hit. Add some text (“No match.”) to replace the empty
list of hits and avoid this confusion.
While at it, remove some nearby dead code, left behind from a

imap-send: Fix sprintf usage
When composing a command for the imap server, imap-send uses a single
nfsnprintf() invocation for brevity instead of dealing separately with
the case when there is a message to be sent and the case when there
isn’t. The unused argument in the second case, while valid, is
confusing for static analyzers and human readers.
v1.6.4-rc0~117 (imap-send: add support for IPv6, 2009-05-25)
mistakenly used %hu as the format for an int “port”, by analogy with
existing usage for the unsigned short “addr.sin_port”. Use %d
instead.

smart-http: Don't deadlock on server failure
If the remote HTTP server fails (e.g. returns 404 or 500) when we
posted the RPC to it, we won't have sent anything to the background
Git process that is supposed to handle the stream. Because we
didn't send anything, its waiting for input from remote-curl, and
remote-curl cannot read its response payload because doing so would
lead to a deadlock.
Send the background task EOF on its input before we try to read
its response back, that way it will break out of its read loop
and terminate.

Documentation: flesh out “git pull” description
The current description in the pull man page does not say much more
than that “git pull” is fetch + merge. Though that is all a person
needs to know in the end, it would be useful to summarize a bit about
what those commands do for new readers.
Most of this description is taken from the “git merge” docs.
Now that we explain how to back out of a failed merge (reset --merge),
we can tone down the warning against that a bit.
Except, as Thomas noticed, there’s a risk with that because people
might read this version of the manpage online and then conclude that
it is safe to try a merge with uncommitted changes, only to find that
their “git reset” doesn't support --merge yet. Or worse, verify that
their git-reset has --merge by a quick test (1b5b465 is in 1.6.2) but
then find that it does not help with backing out of a merge (e11d7b5
is only in 1.7.0!). So keep the warning.
With clarifications from Ævar, Thomas, and Junio.

sha1_name.c: fix parsing of ":/token" syntax
The parser tried to clean up the object flags it used while finding
commits with matching string, but was not doing a very good job at it.
This caused "checkout -b new ':/token'", which internally tries to parse
':/token' twice as an object name, to fail when the commit in question
was reachable from only one ref.
The mask bits given to pop_most_recent_commit(&list, MASK) means "I have
already been on the list to be processed, so please do not place me again
even if I am found to be a parent of some other commit on the list." So
mark them when we add them to the list at the beginning.

Documentation/rev-parse: quoting is required with --parseopt
When calling rev-parse --parseopt, as in the (now fixed) documented
example
eval "$(echo "$OPTS_SPEC" | git rev-parse --parseopt -- "$@" || echo exit $?)"
the outermost quoting is required, as otherwise all runs of arbitrary
whitespace inside the resulting 'set -- ...' call would be collapsed
into a single space.
This was exposed as a result of our new use of cat <<\EOF since
47e9cd2 (parseopt: wrap rev-parse --parseopt usage for eval
consumption, 2010-06-12), but has always been a problem when handling
arguments containing e.g. newlines.
Point this out in the documentation, and in particular correct the
example that did not have the quotes.
