Giuseppe Bilotta 48a7c1c49d Refactor list of of repo-local env vars
Move the list of GIT_* environment variables that are local to a
repository into a static list in environment.c, as it is also
useful elsewhere. Also add the missing GIT_CONFIG variable to the
list.

Make it easy to use the list both by NULL-termination and by size;
the latter (excluding the terminating NULL) is stored in the
local_repo_env_size define.

Christian Couder 6476b38b1f replace: use a GIT_NO_REPLACE_OBJECTS env variable
This has the same effect as --no-replace-objects option; git ignores the
replace refs.  When --no-replace-objects option is passed to git, this
environment variable is set to "1" and exported to subprocesses in order
to propagate the same setting.

It is useful for example for scripts, as the git commands used in them can
now be aware that they must not read replace refs.

Johannes Schindelin a97a74686d Introduce commit notes
Commit notes are blobs which are shown together with the commit
message.  These blobs are taken from the notes ref, which you can
configure by the config variable core.notesRef, which in turn can
be overridden by the environment variable GIT_NOTES_REF.

The notes ref is a branch which contains "files" whose names are
the names of the corresponding commits (i.e. the SHA-1).

The rationale for putting this information into a ref is this: we
want to be able to fetch and possibly union-merge the notes,
maybe even look at the date when a note was introduced, and we
want to store them efficiently together with the other objects.

This patch has been improved by the following contributions:
- Thomas Rast: fix core.notesRef documentation
- Tor Arne Vestbø: fix printing of multi-line notes
- Alex Riesen: Using char array instead of char pointer costs less BSS
- Johan Herland: Plug leak when msg is good, but msglen or type causes return

Johannes Schindelin 7f3140cd23 git repack: keep commits hidden by a graft
When you have grafts that pretend that a given commit has different
parents than the ones recorded in the commit object, it is dangerous
to let 'git repack' remove those hidden parents, as you can easily
remove the graft and end up with a broken repository.

So let's play it safe and keep those parent objects and everything
that is reachable by them, in addition to the grafted parents.

As this behavior can only be triggered by git pack-objects, and as that
command handles duplicate parents gracefully, we do not bother to cull
duplicated parents that may result by using both true and grafted
parents.

Johannes Schindelin be66a6c43d Add an option not to use link(src, dest) && unlink(src) when that is unreliable
It seems that accessing NTFS partitions with ufsd (at least on my EeePC)
has an unnerving bug: if you link() a file and unlink() it right away,
the target of the link() will have the correct size, but consist of NULs.

It seems as if the calls are simply not serialized correctly, as single-stepping
through the function move_temp_to_file() works flawlessly.

As ufsd is "Commertial software" (sic!), I cannot fix it, and have to work
around it in Git.

At the same time, it seems that this fixes msysGit issues 222 and 229 to
assume that Windows cannot handle link() && unlink().

Finn Arne Gangstad 521537476f New config push.default to decide default behavior for push
When "git push" is not told what refspecs to push, it pushes all matching
branches to the current remote.  For some workflows this default is not
useful, and surprises new users.  Some have even found that this default
behaviour is too easy to trigger by accident with unwanted consequences.

Introduce a new configuration variable "push.default" that decides what
action git push should take if no refspecs are given or implied by the
command line arguments or the current remote configuration.

Possible values are:

  'nothing'  : Push nothing;
  'matching' : Current default behaviour, push all branches that already
               exist in the current remote;
  'tracking' : Push the current branch to whatever it is tracking;
  'current'  : Push the current branch to a branch of the same name,
               i.e. HEAD.

Linus Torvalds 671c9b7e31 Add cache preload facility
This can do the lstat() storm in parallel, giving potentially much
improved performance for cold-cache cases or things like NFS that have
weak metadata caching.

Just use "read_cache_preload()" instead of "read_cache()" to force an
optimistic preload of the index stat data.  The function takes a
pathspec as its argument, allowing us to preload only the relevant
portion of the index.

A lot of modules that have nothing to do with git-shell functionality

This patch cuts off redundant dependencies by:
1. providing stubs for three functions that make no sense for git-shell;
2. moving quote_path_fully from environment.c to quote.c to make the
   later self sufficient;
3. moving make_absolute_path into a new separate file.

It defaults to off, although we could presumably in theory some day

Jay Soffian 9ed36cfa35 branch: optionally setup branch.*.merge from upstream local branches
"git branch" and "git checkout -b" now honor --track option even when
the upstream branch is local.  Previously --track was silently ignored
when forking from a local branch.  Also the command did not error out
when --track was explicitly asked for but the forked point specified
was not an existing branch (i.e. when there is no way to set up the
tracking configuration), but now it correctly does.

The configuration setting branch.autosetupmerge can now be set to
"always", which is equivalent to using --track from the command line.
Setting branch.autosetupmerge to "true" will retain the former behavior
of only setting up branch.*.merge for remote upstream branches.

Includes test cases for the new functionality.

Steffen Prohaska 21e5ad50fc safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversions
CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data.
autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to
CRLF during checkout.  A file that contains a mixture of LF and
CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git.  For text
files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings
such that we have only LF line endings in the repository.
But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the
conversion can corrupt data.

If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by
setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes.  Right
after committing you still have the original file in your work
tree and this file is not yet corrupted.  You can explicitly tell
git that this file is binary and git will handle the file
appropriately.

Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with
mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary
files cannot be distinguished.  In both cases CRLFs are removed
in an irreversible way.  For text files this is the right thing
to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files
converting CRLFs corrupts data.

This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about
an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert.  The
mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the
following values:

 - false: disable safecrlf mechanism
 - warn: warn about irreversible conversions
 - true: refuse irreversible conversions

The default is to warn.  Users are only affected by this default
if core.autocrlf is set.  But the current default of git is to
leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless
they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism.

The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command.  The
general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are:

 - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an
   irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the
   original file.

 - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree
   we do not not print annoying warnings.

There are exceptions.  Even though...

 - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the
   next checkout would, so the safety triggers;

 - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files
   in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF
   conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the
   safety does not trigger;

 - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is
   often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add".  To
   catch potential problems early, safety triggers.

The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar
way by Linus Torvalds.  Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting
on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right.

Jeff King 6e9af863ee Support GIT_PAGER_IN_USE environment variable
When deciding whether or not to turn on automatic color
support, git_config_colorbool checks whether stdout is a
tty. However, because we run a pager, if stdout is not a
tty, we must check whether it is because we started the
pager. This used to be done by checking the pager_in_use
variable.

This variable was set only when the git program being run
started the pager; there was no way for an external program
running git indicate that it had already started a pager.
This patch allows a program to set GIT_PAGER_IN_USE to a
true value to indicate that even though stdout is not a tty,
it is because a pager is being used.

Junio C Hamano cf1b7869f0 Use gitattributes to define per-path whitespace rule
The `core.whitespace` configuration variable allows you to define what
`diff` and `apply` should consider whitespace errors for all paths in
the project (See gitlink:git-config[1]).  This attribute gives you finer
control per path.

For example, if you have these in the .gitattributes:

    frotz   whitespace
    nitfol  -whitespace
    xyzzy   whitespace=-trailing

all types of whitespace problems known to git are noticed in path 'frotz'
(i.e. diff shows them in diff.whitespace color, and apply warns about
them), no whitespace problem is noticed in path 'nitfol', and the
default types of whitespace problems except "trailing whitespace" are
noticed for path 'xyzzy'.  A project with mixed Python and C might want
to have:

    *.c    whitespace
    *.py   whitespace=-indent-with-non-tab

in its toplevel .gitattributes file.

Junio C Hamano 039bc64e88 core.excludesfile clean-up
There are inconsistencies in the way commands currently handle
the core.excludesfile configuration variable.  The problem is
the variable is too new to be noticed by anything other than
git-add and git-status.

 * git-ls-files does not notice any of the "ignore" files by
   default, as it predates the standardized set of ignore files.
   The calling scripts established the convention to use
   .git/info/exclude, .gitignore, and later core.excludesfile.

 * git-add and git-status know about it because they call
   add_excludes_from_file() directly with their own notion of
   which standard set of ignore files to use.  This is just a
   stupid duplication of code that need to be updated every time
   the definition of the standard set of ignore files is
   changed.

 * git-read-tree takes --exclude-per-directory=<gitignore>,
   not because the flexibility was needed.  Again, this was
   because the option predates the standardization of the ignore
   files.

 * git-merge-recursive uses hardcoded per-directory .gitignore
   and nothing else.  git-clean (scripted version) does not
   honor core.* because its call to underlying ls-files does not
   know about it.  git-clean in C (parked in 'pu') doesn't either.

We probably could change git-ls-files to use the standard set
when no excludes are specified on the command line and ignore
processing was asked, or something like that, but that will be a
change in semantics and might break people's scripts in a subtle
way.  I am somewhat reluctant to make such a change.

On the other hand, I think it makes perfect sense to fix
git-read-tree, git-merge-recursive and git-clean to follow the
same rule as other commands.  I do not think of a valid use case
to give an exclude-per-directory that is nonstandard to
read-tree command, outside a "negative" test in the t1004 test
script.

This patch is the first step to untangle this mess.

The next step would be to teach read-tree, merge-recursive and
clean (in C) to use setup_standard_excludes().

Junio C Hamano a9cc857ada War on whitespace: first, a bit of retreat.
This introduces core.whitespace configuration variable that lets
you specify the definition of "whitespace error".

Currently there are two kinds of whitespace errors defined:

 * trailing-space: trailing whitespaces at the end of the line.

 * space-before-tab: a SP appears immediately before HT in the
   indent part of the line.

You can specify the desired types of errors to be detected by
listing their names (unique abbreviations are accepted)
separated by comma.  By default, these two errors are always
detected, as that is the traditional behaviour.  You can disable
detection of a particular type of error by prefixing a '-' in
front of the name of the error, like this:

	[core]
		whitespace = -trailing-space

This patch teaches the code to output colored diff with
DIFF_WHITESPACE color to highlight the detected whitespace
errors to honor the new configuration.
