git-p4: add option to preserve user names
Patches from git passed into p4 end up with the committer being identified
as the person who ran git-p4.
With "submit --preserve-user", git-p4 modifies the p4 changelist (after it
has been submitted), setting the p4 author field.
The submitter is required to have sufficient p4 permissions or git-p4
refuses to proceed. If the git author is not known to p4, the submit will
be abandoned unless git-p4.allowMissingP4Users is true.

http: clear POSTFIELDS when initializing a slot
After posting a short request using CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, if the slot
is reused for posting a large payload, the slot ends up having both
POSTFIELDS (which now points at a random garbage) and READFUNCTION,
in which case the curl library tries to use the stale POSTFIELDS.
Clear it as part of the general slot initialization in get_active_slot().

* js/maint-1.6.6-send-pack-stateless-rpc-deadlock-fix:
send-pack: avoid deadlock when pack-object dies early
Evil merge to adjust the way the use of pthreads in sideband-demultiplexor
was decided (earlier it was "if we are not on Windows", now it is "if we
are not using pthreads").
send-pack: avoid deadlock when pack-object dies early
Send-pack deadlocks in two ways when pack-object dies early (for example,
because there is some repo corruption).
The first deadlock happens with the smart push protocol (--stateless-rpc).
After the initial rev-exchange, the remote is waiting for the pack data
to arrive, and the sideband demuxer at the local side continues trying to
stream data from the remote repository until it gets EOF. Meanwhile,
send-pack (in function pack_objects()) has noticed that pack-objects did
not produce output and died. Back in send_pack(), it now tries to clean
up the sideband demuxer using finish_async(). The demuxer, however, waits
for the remote end to close down, the remote waits for pack data, and
the reason that it still waits is that send-pack forgot to close the
outgoing channel. Add the missing close() in pack_objects().
The second deadlock happens in a similar constellation when the sideband
demuxer runs in a forked process (rather than in a thread). Again, the
remote end waits for pack data to arrive, the sideband demuxer waits for
the remote to shut down, and send-pack (in the regular clean-up) waits for
the demuxer to terminate. This time, the send-pack parent process closes
the writable end of the outgoing channel (in start_command() that spawned
pack-objects) so that after the death of the pack-objects process all
writable ends should have been closed and the remote repo should see EOF.
This does not happen, however, because when the sideband demuxer was forked
earlier, it also inherited a writable end; it remains open and keeps the
remote repo from seeing EOF. To break this deadlock, close the writable end
in the demuxer.

Fix "add -u" that sometimes fails to resolve unmerged paths
"git add -u" updates the index with the updated contents from the working
tree by internally running "diff-files" to grab the set of paths that are
different from the index. Then it updates the index entries for the paths
that are modified in the working tree, and deletes the index entries for
the paths that are deleted in the working tree.
It ignored the output from the diff-files that indicated that a path is
unmerged. For these paths, it instead relied on the fact that an unmerged
path is followed by the result of comparison between stage #2 (ours) and
the working tree, and used that to update or delete such a path when it is
used to record the resolution of a conflict.
As the result, when a path did not have stage #2 (e.g. "we deleted while
the other side added"), these unmerged stages were left behind, instead of
recording what the user resolved in the working tree.
Since we recently fixed "diff-files" to indicate if the corresponding path
exists on the working tree for an unmerged path, we do not have to rely on
the comparison with stage #2 anymore. We can instead tell the diff-files
not to compare with higher stages, and use the unmerged output to update
the index to reflect the state of the working tree.
The changes to the test vector in t2200 illustrates the nature of the bug
and the fix. The test expected stage #1 and #3 entries be left behind,
but it was codifying the buggy behaviour.

date: avoid "X years, 12 months" in relative dates
When relative dates are more than about a year ago, we start
writing them as "Y years, M months". At the point where we
calculate Y and M, we have the time delta specified as a
number of days. We calculate these integers as:
Y = days / 365
M = (days % 365 + 15) / 30
This rounds days in the latter half of a month up to the
nearest month, so that day 16 is "1 month" (or day 381 is "1
year, 1 month").
We don't round the year at all, though, meaning we can end
up with "1 year, 12 months", which is silly; it should just
be "2 years".
Implement this differently with months of size
onemonth = 365/12
so that
totalmonths = (long)( (days + onemonth/2)/onemonth )
years = totalmonths / 12
months = totalmonths % 12
In order to do this without floats, we write the first formula as
totalmonths = (days*12*2 + 365) / (365*2)

run-command: handle short writes and EINTR in die_child
If start_command fails after forking and before exec finishes, there
is not much use in noticing an I/O error on top of that.
finish_command will notice that the child exited with nonzero status
anyway. So as noted in v1.7.0.3~20^2 (run-command.c: fix build
warnings on Ubuntu, 2010-01-30) and v1.7.5-rc0~29^2 (2011-03-16), it
is safe to ignore errors from write in this codepath.
Even so, the result from write contains useful information: it tells
us if the write was cancelled by a signal (EINTR) or was only
partially completed (e.g., when writing to an almost-full pipe).
Let's use write_in_full to loop until the desired number of bytes have
been written (still ignoring errors if that fails).
As a happy side effect, the assignment to a dummy variable to appease
gcc -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE is no longer needed. xwrite and write_in_full
check the return value from write(2).
Noticed with gcc -Wunused-but-set-variable.

But with the problematic versions, we get disturbing output:
$ PATH=.:$PATH git hello
fatal: $
Add some tests to make sure it doesn't happen again.
The hello-script used in these tests uses cat instead of echo because
on Windows the bash spawned by git converts LF to CRLF in text written
by echo while the bash running tests does not, causing the test to
fail if "echo" is used. Thanks to Hannes for noticing.

fatal: cannot exec 'git-hello': Permission denied
But with the problematic versions, we get disturbing output:
$ PATH=.:$PATH git hello
fatal: $
Add some tests to make sure it doesn't happen again.
The hello-script used in these tests uses cat instead of echo because
on Windows the bash spawned by git converts LF to CRLF in text written
by echo while the bash running tests does not, causing the test to
fail if "echo" is used. Thanks to Hannes for noticing.

Documentation: describe the format of messages with inline patches
Add a DISCUSSION section to the "git format-patch" manual to encourage
people to send patches in a form that can be applied by "git am"
automatically. There are two such forms:
1. The default form in which most metadata goes in the mail header
and the message body starts with the patch description;
2. The snipsnip form in which a message starts with pertinent
discussion and ends with a patch after a "scissors" mark.
The example requires QP encoding in the "Subject:" header intended for
the mailer to give the reader a chance to reflect on that, rather than
being startled by it later. By contrast, in-body "From:" and
"Subject:" lines should be human-readable and not QP encoded.

format-patch: wrap email addresses after long names
We already wrap names in "from" headers, which tend to be
the long part of an address. But it's also possible for a
long name to not be wrapped, but to make us want to wrap the
email address. For example (imagine for the sake of
readability we want to wrap at 50 characters instead of 78):
From: this is my really long git name <foo@example.com>
The name does not overflow the line, but the name and email
together do. So we would rather see:
From: this is my really long git name
<git@example.com>
Because we wrap the name separately during add_rfc2047, we
neglected this case. Instead, we should see how long the
final line of the wrapped name ended up, and decide whether
or not to wrap based on that. We can't break the address
into multiple parts, so we either leave it with the name, or
put it by itself on a line.

mergetool: Teach about submodules
When the index has conflicted submodules, mergetool used to mildly
clobber the module, renaming it to mymodule.BACKUP.nnnn, then failing to

Recognize submodules and offer a resolution instead:
Submodule merge conflict for 'Shared':
{local}: submodule commit ad9f12e3e6205381bf2163a793d1e596a9e211d0
{remote}: submodule commit f5893fb70ec5646efcd9aa643c5136753ac89253
Use (l)ocal or (r)emote, or (a)bort?
Selecting a commit will stage it, but not update the submodule (as git
does had there been no conflict). Type changes are also supported,
should the path be a submodule on one side, and a file, symlink,
directory, or deleted on the other.

format-patch: don't pass on the --quiet flag
The --quiet flag is not meant to be passed on to the diff, as the user
always wants the patches to be produced so catch it and pass it to
reopen_stdout which decides whether to print the filename or not.

--dirstat: In case of renames, use target filename instead of source filename
This changes --dirstat analysis to count "damage" toward the target filename,
rather than the source filename. For renames within a directory, this won't
matter to the final output, but when moving files between diretories, the
output now lists the target directory rather than the source directory.

i18n: do not overuse C_LOCALE_OUTPUT
It is too coarse-grained way that led to artificial splitting of a
logically single test case into "do" and "check only without poison".
As the majority of check is done by comparing expected and actual output
stored in a file with test_cmp anyway, just introduce test_i18ncmp that
pretends the actual output matched the expected one when gettext-poison
is in effect.

Teach --dirstat not to completely ignore rearranged lines within a file
Currently, the --dirstat analysis ignores when lines within a file are
rearranged, because the "damage" calculated by show_dirstat() is 0.
However, if the object name has changed, we already know that there is
some damage, and it is unintuitive to claim there is _no_ damage.
Teach show_dirstat() to assign a minimum amount of damage (== 1) to
entries for which the analysis otherwise yields zero damage, to still
represent that these files are changed, instead of saying that there
is no change.
Also, skip --dirstat analysis when the object names are the same (e.g. for
a pure file rename).

--dirstat-by-file: Make it faster and more correct
Currently, when using --dirstat-by-file, it first does the full --dirstat
analysis (using diffcore_count_changes()), and then resets 'damage' to 1,
if any damage was found by diffcore_count_changes().
But --dirstat-by-file is not interested in the file damage per se. It only
cares if the file changed at all. In that sense it only cares if the blob
object for a file has changed. We therefore only need to compare the
object names of each file pair in the diff queue and we can skip the
entire --dirstat analysis and simply set 'damage' to 1 for each entry
where the object name has changed.
This makes --dirstat-by-file faster, and also bypasses --dirstat's practice
of ignoring rearranged lines within a file.
The patch also contains an added testcase verifying that --dirstat-by-file
now detects changes that only rearrange lines within a file.

The 'pushurl' key is distinct from the 'commiturl' key in that

either might be used.

magic pathspec: futureproof shorthand form
The earlier design was to take whatever non-alnum that the short format
parser happens to support, leaving the rest as part of the pattern, so a
version of git that knows '*' magic and a version that does not would have
behaved differently when given ":*Makefile". The former would have
applied the '*' magic to the pattern "Makefile", while the latter would
used no magic to the pattern "*Makefile".
Instead, just reserve all non-alnum ASCII letters that are neither glob
nor regexp special as potential magic signature, and when we see a magic
that is not supported, die with an error message, just like the longhand
codepath does.
With this, ":%#!*Makefile" will always mean "%#!" magic applied to the
pattern "*Makefile", no matter what version of git is used (it is a
different matter if the version of git supports all of these three magic
matching rules).
Also make ':' without anything else to mean "there is no pathspec". This
would allow differences between "git log" and "git log ." run from the top
level of the working tree (the latter simplifies no-op commits away from
the history) to be expressed from a subdirectory by saying "git log :".

the history) to be expressed from a subdirectory by saying "git log :".

merge: allow "-" as a short-hand for "previous branch"
Just like "git checkout -" is a short-hand for "git checkout @{-1}" to
conveniently switch back to the previous branch, "git merge -" is a
short-hand for "git merge @{-1}" to conveniently merge the previous branch.
It will allow me to say:
$ git checkout -b au/topic
$ git am -s ./+au-topic.mbox
$ git checkout pu
$ git merge -
which is an extremely typical and repetitive operation during my git day.
