When git-merge sees that we are on an unborn branch (i.e., there is no
HEAD), it follows a totally separate code path than the usual merge
logic. This code path does not know about verify_signatures, and so we
fail to notice bad or missing signatures.
This has been broken since --verify-signatures was added in efed002249
(merge/pull: verify GPG signatures of commits being merged, 2013-03-31).
In an ideal world, we'd unify the flow for this case with the regular
merge logic, which would fix this bug and avoid introducing similar
ones. But because the unborn case is so different, it would be a burden
on the rest of the function to continually handle the missing HEAD. So
let's just port the verification check to this special case.

The logic to implement "merge --verify-signatures" is inline in
cmd_merge(), but this site misses some cases. Let's extract the logic
into a function so we can call it from more places.
We'll move it to commit.[ch], since one of the callers (git-pull) is
outside our source file. This function isn't all that general (after
all, its main function is to exit the program) but it's not worth trying
to fix that. The heavy lifting is done by check_commit_signature(), and
our purpose here is just sharing the die() logic. We'll mark it with a
comment to make that clear.

When we define a parse-options callback, the flags we put in the option
struct must match what the callback expects. For example, a callback
which does not handle the "unset" parameter should only be used with
PARSE_OPT_NONEG. But since the callback and the option struct are not
defined next to each other, it's easy to get this wrong (as earlier
patches in this series show).
Fortunately, the compiler can help us here: compiling with
-Wunused-parameters can show us which callbacks ignore their "unset"
parameters (and likewise, ones that ignore "arg" expect to be triggered
with PARSE_OPT_NOARG).
But after we've inspected a callback and determined that all of its
callers use the right flags, what do we do next? We'd like to silence
the compiler warning, but do so in a way that will catch any wrong calls
in the future.
We can do that by actually checking those variables and asserting that
they match our expectations. Because this is such a common pattern,
we'll introduce some helper macros. The resulting messages aren't
as descriptive as we could make them, but the file/line information from
BUG() is enough to identify the problem (and anyway, the point is that
these should never be seen).
Each of the annotated callbacks in this patch triggers
-Wunused-parameters, and was manually inspected to make sure all callers
use the correct options (so none of these BUGs should be triggerable).

Deep in update_paths() and find_conflict(), hold_locked_index() and
read_index() are called. These functions assumes the index path at
$GIT_DIR/index which is not always true when you take an arbitrary

This is the flip side of the previous two patches: checking
for a non-zero oidcmp() can be more strictly expressed as
inequality. Like those patches, we write "!= 0" in the
coccinelle transformation, which covers by isomorphism the
more common:
if (oidcmp(E1, E2))
As with the previous two patches, this patch can be achieved
almost entirely by running "make coccicheck"; the only
differences are manual line-wrap fixes to match the original
code.
There is one thing to note for anybody replicating this,
though: coccinelle 1.0.4 seems to miss the case in
builtin/tag.c, even though it's basically the same as all
the others. Running with 1.0.7 does catch this, so
presumably it's just a coccinelle bug that was fixed in the
interim.

Using the more restrictive oideq() should, in the long run,
give the compiler more opportunities to optimize these
callsites. For now, this conversion should be a complete
noop with respect to the generated code.
The result is also perhaps a little more readable, as it
avoids the "zero is equal" idiom. Since it's so prevalent in
C, I think seasoned programmers tend not to even notice it
anymore, but it can sometimes make for awkward double
negations (e.g., we can drop a few !!oidcmp() instances
here).
This patch was generated almost entirely by the included
coccinelle patch. This mechanical conversion should be
completely safe, because we check explicitly for cases where
oidcmp() is compared to 0, which is what oideq() is doing
under the hood. Note that we don't have to catch "!oidcmp()"
separately; coccinelle's standard isomorphisms make sure the
two are treated equivalently.
I say "almost" because I did hand-edit the coccinelle output
to fix up a few style violations (it mostly keeps the
original formatting, but sometimes unwraps long lines).

Now that we use generation numbers from the commit-graph, we must
ensure that all commits that exist in the commit-graph are loaded
from that file instead of from the object database. Since the
commit-graph file is only checked if core.commitGraph is true, we
must check the default config before we load any commits.
In the merge builtin, the config was checked after loading the HEAD
commit. This was due to the use of the global 'branch' when checking
merge-specific config settings.
Move the config load to be between the initialization of 'branch' and
the commit lookup.
Without this change, a fast-forward merge would hit a BUG("bad
generation skip") statement in commit.c during paint_down_to_common().
This is because the HEAD commit would be loaded with "infinite"
generation but then reached by commits with "finite" generation
numbers.

prevent a regression.

Placing `struct lock_file`s on the stack used to be a bad idea, because
the temp- and lockfile-machinery would keep a pointer into the struct.
But after 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap,
2017-09-05), we can safely have lockfiles on the stack. (This applies
even if a user returns early, leaving a locked lock behind.)
These `struct lock_file`s are local to their respective functions and we
can drop their staticness.
For good measure, I have inspected these sites and come to believe that
they always release the lock, with the possible exception of bailing out
using `die()` or `exit()` or by returning from a `cmd_foo()`.
As pointed out by Jeff King, it would be bad if someone held on to a
`struct lock_file *` for some reason. After some grepping, I agree with
his findings: no-one appears to be doing that.

Since Git 1.7.9, "git merge" defaulted to --no-ff (i.e. even when
the side branch being merged is a descendant of the current commit,
create a merge commit instead of fast-forwarding) when merging a
tag object. This was appropriate default for integrators who pull
signed tags from their downstream contributors, but caused an
unnecessary merges when used by downstream contributors who
habitually "catch up" their topic branches with tagged releases
from the upstream. Update "git merge" to default to --no-ff only
when merging a tag object that does *not* sit at its usual place in
refs/tags/ hierarchy, and allow fast-forwarding otherwise, to
mitigate the problem.
* jc/allow-ff-merging-kept-tags:
merge: allow fast-forward when merging a tracked tag
We have several callers like
if (active_cache_changed && write_locked_index(...))
handle_error();
rollback_lock_file(...);
where the final rollback is needed because "!active_cache_changed"
shortcuts the if-expression. There are also a few variants of this,
including some if-else constructs that make it more clear when the
explicit rollback is really needed.
Teach `write_locked_index()` to take a new flag SKIP_IF_UNCHANGED and
simplify the callers. Leave the most complicated of the callers (in
builtin/update-index.c) unchanged. Rewriting it to use this new flag
would end up duplicating logic.
We could have made the new flag behave the other way round
("FORCE_WRITE"), but that could break existing users behind their backs.
Let's take the more conservative approach. We can still migrate existing
callers to use our new flag. Later we might even be able to flip the

Long time ago at fab47d05 ("merge: force edit and no-ff mode when
merging a tag object", 2011-11-07), "git merge" was made to always
create a merge commit when merging a tag, even when the side branch
being merged is a descendant of the current branch.
This default is good for merges made by upstream maintainers to
integrate work signed by downstream contributors, but will leave
pointless no-ff merges when downstream contributors pull a newer
release tag to make their long-running topic branches catch up with
the upstream. When there is no local work left on the topic, such a
merge should simply fast-forward to the commit pointed at by the
release tag.
Update the default (again) for "git merge" that merges a tag object
to (1) --no-ff (i.e. create a merge commit even when side branch
fast forwards) if the tag being merged is not at its expected place
in refs/tags/ hierarchy and (2) --ff (i.e. allow fast-forward update
when able) otherwise.

As "git commit" to conclude a conflicted "git merge" honors the
commit-msg hook, "git merge" that recoreds a merge commit that
cleanly auto-merges should, but it didn't.

builtin/merge: honor commit-msg hook for merges
Message and doc updates.
* ma/up-to-date:

Documentation/user-manual: update outdated example output
Similar to 65969d43d1 (merge: honor prepare-commit-msg hook, 2011-02-14)
merge should also honor the commit-msg hook: When a merge is stopped due
to conflicts or --no-commit, the subsequent commit calls the commit-msg
hook. However, it is not called after a clean merge. Fix this
inconsistency by invoking the hook after clean merges as well.
This change is motivated by Gerrit's commit-msg hook to install a ChangeId
trailer into the commit message. Without such a ChangeId, Gerrit refuses
to accept any commit by default, such that the inconsistency of (not)
running the commit-msg hook between commit and merge leads to confusion
and might block people from getting their work done.
As the githooks man page is very vocal about the possibility of skipping
the commit-msg hook via the --no-verify option, implement the option
in merge, too.
'git merge --continue' is currently implemented as calling cmd_commit
with no further arguments. This works for most other merge related options,
such as demonstrated via the --allow-unrelated-histories flag in the
test. The --no-verify option however is not remembered across invocations
of git-merge. Originally the author assumed an alternative in which the
'git merge --continue' command accepts the --no-verify flag, but that
opens up the discussion which flags are allows to the continued merge
command and which must be given in the first invocation.

prepare_to_commit() cannot be reached in the non-squash case:
It is called by merge_trivial() and finish_automerge() only, but the
calls to the latter are somewhat hard to track:
If option_commit is not set, the code in cmd_merge() uses a fake
conflict return code (ret=1) to avoid writing the tree, which also
avoids setting automerge_was_ok (just as in the proper ret==1 case), so
that finish_automerge() is not called.
To ensure that no code change breaks that assumption, safe-guard
prepare_to_commit() by a BUG() statement.

"git branch @" created refs/heads/@ as a branch, and in general the
code that handled @{-1} and @{upstream} was a bit too loose in
disambiguating.

checkout: restrict @-expansions when finding branch
strbuf_check_ref_format(): expand only local branches

strbuf_branchname: add docstring
strbuf_branchname: drop return value
interpret_branch_name: move docstring to header file
interpret_branch_name(): handle auto-namelen for @{-1}
The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like
@{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref
names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the
refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and
"@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/").
This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily
interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where
it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a
branch name in refs/heads/. When we expand to a ref outside
that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git
branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is
nonsense).
Callers can't know from the returned string how the
expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a
branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One
fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the
types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that
the caller can generate precise error messages ("I
understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a
remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local
name").
However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat
cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller
tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in,
and none of the callers give more precise error messages
than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which
should be sufficient).
The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter,
as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name()
through it.
We can break the callers down into two groups:
1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the
result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work
without restrictions. This includes merge_name(),
the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(),
and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers
dwim_ref().
2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in
git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of
the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this
patch, and will address them individually in follow-on
patches.

Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to
prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to
die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody
else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to
die upon failure.
This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile
API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to
LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update().
Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop
translating. Callers other than the ones that are replaced with

Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0:
- diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an
opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is
just before the program exits and nobody should care.
- builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(),
builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(),
sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic
updates and they are OK.
- builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront
but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the
entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to
issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock. We do diagnose
and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK.
- wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY. It asks
silence, does not check the returned value. Compare with
callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it
is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.
Some code paths want to format multiple abbreviated sha1s in
the same output line. Because we use a single static buffer
for our return value, they have to either break their output
into several calls or allocate their own arrays and use
find_unique_abbrev_r().
Intead, let's mimic sha1_to_hex() and use a ring of several
buffers, so that the return value stays valid through
multiple calls. This shortens some of the callers, and makes
it harder to for them to make a silly mistake.

Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that
code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we
called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a
message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128).
As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed,
idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to
inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into
builtins, using library functions directly.
We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin
git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily
because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to
call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful
advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to
fix that.
The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with
some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees()
is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error()
instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before),
so that the caller can react more flexibly.
This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no
longer dies, even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling
exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect.
Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already
fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they
now get a chance to say "<command> failed".
A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves
(or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we
leave that change for a later patch.

When "git merge" notices that the merge can be resolved purely at

If read_tree_trivial() succeeds and produces a tree that is already
in the object store, then the index is not written to disk, leaving
it out-of-sync with both HEAD and the working tree.
In order to write the index back out to disk after a merge,
write_index_locked() needs to be called. For most merge strategies, this
is done from try_merge_strategy(). For fast forward updates, this is
done from checkout_fast_forward(). When trivial merges work, the call to
write_index_locked() is buried a little deeper:
merge_trivial()
-> write_tree_trivial()
-> write_cache_as_tree()
-> write_index_as_tree()
-> write_locked_index()
However, it is only called when !cache_tree_fully_valid(), which is how
this bug is triggered. But that also shows why this bug doesn't affect
any other merge strategies or cases.
Add a direct call to write_index_locked() from merge_trivial() to fix
this issue. Since the indirect call to write_locked_index() was
conditional on cache_tree_fully_valid(), it won't be written twice.

"git merge" used to allow merging two branches that have no common
base by default, which led to a brand new history of an existing
project created and then get pulled by an unsuspecting maintainer,
which allowed an unnecessary parallel history merged into the
existing project. The command has been taught not to allow this by
default, with an escape hatch "--allow-unrelated-histories" option
to be used in a rare event that merges histories of two projects
that started their lives independently.
* jc/merge-refuse-new-root:

While it makes sense to allow merging unrelated histories of two
projects that started independently into one, in the way "gitk" was
merged to "git" itself aka "the coolest merge ever", such a merge is
still an unusual event. Worse, if somebody creates an independent
history by starting from a tarball of an established project and
sends a pull request to the original project, "git merge" however
happily creates such a merge without any sign of something unusual
is happening.
Teach "git merge" to refuse to create such a merge by default,
unless the user passes a new "--allow-unrelated-histories" option to
tell it that the user is aware that two unrelated projects are
merged.
Because such a "two project merge" is a rare event, a configuration
option to always allow such a merge is not added.
We could add the same option to "git pull" and have it passed
through to underlying "git merge". I do not have a fundamental
opposition against such a feature, but this commit does not do so
and instead leaves it as low-hanging fruit for others, because such
a "two project merge" would be done after fetching the other project
into some location in the working tree of an existing project and
making sure how well they fit together, it is sufficient to allow a
local merge without such an option pass-through from "git pull" to
"git merge". Many tests that are updated by this patch does the
pass-through manually by turning:
git pull something
into its equivalent:
git fetch something &&
git merge --allow-unrelated-histories FETCH_HEAD
If somebody is inclined to add such an option, updated tests in this
change need to be adjusted back to:
git pull --allow-unrelated-histories something

Rename detection is a very convenient feature, and new users shouldn't
have to dig in the documentation to benefit from it.
Potential objections to activating rename detection are that it
sometimes fail, and it is sometimes slow. But rename detection is
already activated by default in several cases like "git status" and "git
merge", so activating diff.renames does not fundamentally change the
situation. When the rename detection fails, it now fails consistently
between "git diff" and "git status".
This setting does not affect plumbing commands, hence well-written

Before sha1_to_hex_r() existed, a simple way to get hex
sha1 into a buffer was with:
strcpy(buf, sha1_to_hex(sha1));
This isn't wrong (assuming the buf is 41 characters), but it
makes auditing the code base for bad strcpy() calls harder,
as these become false positives.
Let's convert them to sha1_to_hex_r(), and likewise for
some calls to find_unique_abbrev(). While we're here, we'll
double-check that all of the buffers are correctly sized,
and use the more obvious GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ constant.

One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a
constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two
drawbacks:
1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime
is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc.
2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This
is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it
correctly at least once), but many of these constant
strings appear throughout the code.
This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize"
these strings, which are essentially globals for the
lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take
ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for
subsequent calls. cache.h provides a helper macro for
defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few
common ones for global use.
Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely
document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch
them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the
git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of
the stored values), it will be much easier to have the
complete list.
Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual
declarations. We could do something clever with the macros
(e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a
declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't
that many, and it's probably better to stay away from
too-magical macros.
Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of
generating these with a script, we could get much fancier.
E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz".
But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth
the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the
function's definition.

remote.c: drop "remote" pointer from "struct branch"
remote.c: refactor setup of branch->merge list
remote.c: drop default_remote_name variable
When we create each branch struct, we fill in the
"remote_name" field from the config, and then fill in the
actual "remote" field (with a "struct remote") based on that
name. However, it turns out that nobody really cares about
the latter field. The only two sites that access it at all
are:
1. git-merge, which uses it to notice when the branch does
not have a remote defined. But we can easily replace this
with looking at remote_name instead.
2. remote.c itself, when setting up the @{upstream} merge
config. But we don't need to save the "remote" in the
"struct branch" for that; we can just look it up for
the duration of the operation.
So there is no need to have both fields; they are redundant
with each other (the struct remote contains the name, or you
can look up the struct from the name). It would be nice to
simplify this, especially as we are going to add matching
pushremote config in a future patch (and it would be nice to
keep them consistent).
So which one do we keep and which one do we get rid of?
If we had a lot of callers accessing the struct, it would be
more efficient to keep it (since you have to do a lookup to
go from the name to the struct, but not vice versa). But we
don't have a lot of callers; we have exactly one, so
efficiency doesn't matter. We can decide this based on
simplicity and readability.
And the meaning of the struct value is somewhat unclear. Is
it always the remote matching remote_name? If remote_name is
NULL (i.e., no per-branch config), does the struct fall back
to the "origin" remote, or is it also NULL? These questions
will get even more tricky with pushremotes, whose fallback
behavior is more complicated. So let's just store the name,
which pretty clearly represents the branch.*.remote config.
Any lookup or fallback behavior can then be implemented in
helper functions.

We had this in "git merge" manual for eternity:
'git merge' <msg> HEAD <commit>...
[This] syntax (<msg> `HEAD` <commit>...) is supported for
historical reasons. Do not use it from the command line or in
new scripts. It is the same as `git merge -m <msg> <commit>...`.
With the update to "git merge" to make it understand what is
recorded in FETCH_HEAD directly, including Octopus merge cases, we
now can rewrite the use of this syntax in "git pull" with a simple
"git merge FETCH_HEAD".
Also there are quite a few fallouts in the test scripts, and it
turns out that "git cvsimport" also uses this old syntax to record
a merge.
Judging from this result, I would not be surprised if dropping the
support of the old syntax broke scripts people have written and been
relying on for the past ten years. But at least we can start the
deprecation process by throwing a warning message when the syntax is
used.
With luck, we might be able to drop the support in a few years.

The collect_parents() function now is responsible for
1. parsing the commits given on the command line into a list of
commits to be merged;
2. filtering these parents into independent ones; and
3. optionally calling fmt_merge_msg() via prepare_merge_message()
to prepare an auto-generated merge log message, using fake
contents that FETCH_HEAD would have had if these commits were
fetched from the current repository with "git pull . $args..."
Make "git merge FETCH_HEAD" to be the same as the traditional
git merge "$(git fmt-merge-msg <.git/FETCH_HEAD)" $commits
invocation of the command in "git pull", where $commits are the ones
that appear in FETCH_HEAD that are not marked as not-for-merge, by
making it do a bit more, specifically:
- noticing "FETCH_HEAD" is the only "commit" on the command line
and picking the commits that are not marked as not-for-merge as
the list of commits to be merged (substitute for step #1 above);
- letting the resulting list fed to step #2 above;
- doing the step #3 above, using the contents of the FETCH_HEAD
instead of fake contents crafted from the list of commits parsed
in the step #1 above.
Note that this changes the semantics. "git merge FETCH_HEAD" has
always behaved as if the first commit in the FETCH_HEAD file were
directly specified on the command line, creating a two-way merge
whose auto-generated merge log said "merge commit xyz". With this
change, if the previous fetch was to grab multiple branches (e.g.
"git fetch $there topic-a topic-b"), the new world order is to
create an octopus, behaving as if "git pull $there topic-a topic-b"
were run. This is a deliberate change to make that happen, and
can be seen in the changes to t3033 tests.

Clarify this small function in three ways.
- The function initially collects all commits to be merged into a
commit_list "remoteheads"; the "remotes" pointer always points at
the tail of this list (either the remoteheads variable itself, or
the ->next slot of the element at the end of the list) to help
elongate the list by repeated calls to commit_list_insert().
Because the new element appended by commit_list_insert() will
always have its ->next slot NULLed out, there is no need for us
to assign NULL to *remotes to terminate the list at the end.
- The variable "head_subsumed" always confused me every time I read
this code. What is happening here is that we inspect what the
caller told us to merge (including the current HEAD) and come up
with the list of parents to be recorded for the resulting merge
commit, omitting commits that are ancestor of other commits.
This filtering may remove the current HEAD from the resulting
parent list---and we signal that fact with this variable, so that
we can later record it as the first parent when "--no-ff" is in
effect.
- The "parents" list is created for this function by reduce_heads()
and was not deallocated after its use, even though the loop
control was written in such a way to allow us to do so by taking
the "next" element in a separate variable so that it can be used
in the next-step part of the loop control.

This reverts commit 2bf15a3330, whose
intention was good, but the verbosity levels used in merge-recursive
turns out to be rather uneven. For example, a merge of two branches
with conflicting submodule updates used to report CONFLICT: output
with --quiet but no longer (which *is* desired), while the final
"Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit" message is
still shown even with --quiet (which *is* inconsistent).
Originally reported by Bryan Turner; it is too early to declare what
the concensus is, but it seems that we would need to level the
verbosity levels used in merge strategy backends before we can go
forward. In the meantime, we'd revert to the old behaviour until
that happens.
cf. $gmane/267245
"git merge --quiet" did not squelch messages from the underlying
merge-recursive strategy.
* jk/merge-quiet:
merge: pass verbosity flag down to merge-recursive
This makes "git merge --quiet" really quiet when we call
into merge-recursive.
Note that we can't just pass our flag down as-is; the two
parts of the code use different scales. We center at "0" as
normal for git-merge (with "--quiet" giving a negative
value), but merge-recursive uses "2" as its center. This
patch passes a negative value to merge-recursive rather than
"1", though, as otherwise the user would have to use "-qqq"
to squelch all messages (but the downside is that the user
cannot distinguish between levels 0-2 if without resorting
to the GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY variable).
We may want to review and renormalize the message severities
in merge-recursive, but that does not have to happen now.
This is at least in improvement in the sense that we are
respecting "--quiet" at all.
