Since 4aab5b46f4 (Make read-cache.c "the_index" free., 2007-04-01)
we've been undergoing a slow migration away from these macros, but
haven't made much progress since f8adbec9fe (cache.h: flip
NO_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS switch, 2019-01-24).
Let's move forward a bit by changing the users of those macros that
are rare enough that we can convert them in one go, and then remove
the compatibility shim.
The only manual change to the C code here is to "cache.h", the rest is
all the result of applying the new "index-compatibility.cocci".
Even though it's a one-off, let's keep the coccinelle rules for
now. We'll extend them in subsequent commits, and this will help
anything that's in-flight or out-of-tree to migrate.

Replace the remaining calls of run_command_v_opt() with run_command()
calls and explict struct child_process variables. This is more verbose,
but not by much overall. The code becomes more flexible, e.g. it's easy
to extend to conditionally add a new argument.
Then remove the now unused function and its own flag names, simplifying
the run-command API.

As reported in [1] the "UNUSED(var)" macro introduced in
2174b8c75de (Merge branch 'jk/unused-annotation' into next,
2022-08-24) breaks coccinelle's parsing of our sources in files where
it occurs.
Let's instead partially go with the approach suggested in [2] of
making this not take an argument. As noted in [1] "coccinelle" will
ignore such tokens in argument lists that it doesn't know about, and
it's less of a surprise to syntax highlighters.
This undoes the "help us notice when a parameter marked as unused is
actually use" part of 9b24034754 (git-compat-util: add UNUSED macro,
2022-08-19), a subsequent commit will further tweak the macro to

The callback passed to git_config() must conform to a particular

Note there's one unusual case here in get_remote_default() where we

Move the declaration of the date.c functions from cache.h, and adjust
the relevant users to include the new date.h header.
The show_ident_date() function belonged in pretty.h (it's defined in
pretty.c), its two users outside of pretty.c didn't strictly need to
include pretty.h, as they get it indirectly, but let's add it to them
anyway.
Similarly, the change to "builtin/{fast-import,show-branch,tag}.c"
isn't needed as far as the compiler is concerned, but since they all
use the "DATE_MODE()" macro we now define in date.h, let's have them
include it.
We could simply include this new header in "cache.h", but as this
change shows these functions weren't common enough to warrant
including in it in the first place. By moving them out of cache.h
changes to this API will no longer cause a (mostly) full re-build of
the project when "make" is run.

t2500: add various tests for nuking untracked files
Traditionally, unpack_trees_options->reset was used to signal that it
was okay to delete any untracked files in the way. This was used by
`git read-tree --reset`, but then started appearing in other places as
well. However, many of the other uses should not be deleting untracked
files in the way. Change this value to an enum so that a value of 1
(i.e. "true") can be split into two:
UNPACK_RESET_PROTECT_UNTRACKED,
UNPACK_RESET_OVERWRITE_UNTRACKED
In order to catch accidental misuses (i.e. where folks call it the way
they traditionally used to), define the special enum value of
UNPACK_RESET_INVALID = 1
which will trigger a BUG().
Modify existing callers so that
read-tree --reset
reset --hard
checkout --force
continue using the UNPACK_RESET_OVERWRITE_UNTRACKED logic, while other
callers, including
am
checkout without --force
stash (though currently dead code; reset always had a value of 0)
numerous callers from rebase/sequencer to reset_head()
will use the new UNPACK_RESET_PROTECT_UNTRACKED value.
Also, note that it has been reported that 'git checkout <treeish>
<pathspec>' currently also allows overwriting untracked files[1]. That
case should also be fixed, but it does not use unpack_trees() and thus
is outside the scope of the current changes.

Change several commands to remove ignored files by default when they are
in the way. Since some commands (checkout, merge) take a
--no-overwrite-ignore option to allow the user to configure this, and it
may make sense to add that option to more commands (and in the case of
merge, actually plumb that configuration option through to more of the
backends than just the fast-forwarding special case), add little
comments about where such flags would be used.

Currently, every caller of unpack_trees() that wants to ensure ignored
files are overwritten by default needs to:
* allocate unpack_trees_options.dir
* flip the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag in unpack_trees_options.dir->flags
* call setup_standard_excludes
AND then after the call to unpack_trees() needs to
* call dir_clear()
* deallocate unpack_trees_options.dir
That's a fair amount of boilerplate, and every caller uses identical
code. Make this easier by instead introducing a new boolean value where
the default value (0) does what we want so that new callers of
unpack_trees() automatically get the appropriate behavior. And move all
the handling of unpack_trees_options.dir into unpack_trees() itself.
While preserve_ignored = 0 is the behavior we feel is the appropriate
default, we defer fixing commands to use the appropriate default until a
later commit. So, this commit introduces several locations where we
manually set preserve_ignored=1. This makes it clear where code paths
were previously preserving ignored files when they should not have been;
a future commit will flip these to instead use a value of 0 to get the
behavior we want.

The run-command API has been updated so that the callers can easily

run_auto_maintenance(): implicitly close the object store
run-command: offer to close the object store before running
run-command: prettify the `RUN_COMMAND_*` flags
pull: release packs before fetching
commit-graph: when closing the graph, also release the slab
Before spawning the auto maintenance, we need to make sure that we
release all open file handles to all the `.pack` files (and MIDX files
and commit-graph files and...) so that the maintenance process has the
freedom to delete those files.
So far, we did this manually every time before calling
`run_auto_maintenance()`. With the new `close_object_store` flag, we can
do that implicitly in that function, which is more robust because future
callers won't be able to forget to close the object store.
Note: this changes behavior slightly, as we previously _always_ closed
the object store, but now we only close the object store when actually
running the auto maintenance. In practice, this should not matter (if
anything, it might speed up operations where auto maintenance is
disabled).

For the --committer-date-is-author-date option of git-am and git-rebase,

We can simplify this by handling it all at the time of the fmt_ident()

present, then our WANT_COMMITTER_IDENT flag tells fmt_ident() to fill in
the appropriate value from the config. Which is exactly what

- we use the author email string instead of the committer email
- when parsing the committer ident, we used the wrong variable to
compute the length of the email, resulting in it always being a

Ted reported an old typo in the git-commit.txt and merge-options.txt.
Namely, the phrase "Signed-off-by line" was used without either a
definite nor indefinite article.
Upon examination, it seems that the documentation (including items in
Documentation/, but also option help strings) have been quite
inconsistent on usage when referring to `Signed-off-by`.
First, very few places used a definite or indefinite article with the
phrase "Signed-off-by line", but that was the initial typo that led
to this investigation. So, normalize using either an indefinite or
definite article consistently.
The original phrasing, in Commit 3f971fc425 (Documentation updates,
2005-08-14), is "Add Signed-off-by line". Commit 6f855371a5 (Add
--signoff, --check, and long option-names. 2005-12-09) switched to
using "Add `Signed-off-by:` line", but didn't normalize the former
commit to match. Later commits seem to have cut and pasted from one
or the other, which is likely how the usage became so inconsistent.
Junio stated on the git mailing list in
<xmqqy2k1dfoh.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com> a preference to leave off
the colon. Thus, prefer `Signed-off-by` (with backticks) for the
documentation files and Signed-off-by (without backticks) for option
help strings.
Additionally, Junio argued that "trailer" is now the standard term to
refer to `Signed-off-by`, saying that "becomes plenty clear that we
are not talking about any random line in the log message". As such,
prefer "trailer" over "line" anywhere the former word fits.
However, leave alone those few places in documentation that use
Signed-off-by to refer to the process (rather than the specific
trailer), or in places where mail headers are generally discussed in
comparison with Signed-off-by.

cleaning.

maintenance: add trace2 regions for task execution
maintenance: add auto condition for commit-graph task

maintenance: add --task option

maintenance: add --quiet option
maintenance: create basic maintenance runner
The run_auto_gc() method is used in several places to trigger a check
for repo maintenance after some Git commands, such as 'git commit' or
'git fetch'.
To allow for extra customization of this maintenance activity, replace
the 'git gc --auto [--quiet]' call with one to 'git maintenance run
--auto [--quiet]'. As we extend the maintenance builtin with other
steps, users will be able to select different maintenance activities.
Rename run_auto_gc() to run_auto_maintenance() to be clearer what is
happening on this call, and to expose all callers in the current diff.
Rewrite the method to use a struct child_process to simplify the calls
slightly.
Since 'git fetch' already allows disabling the 'git gc --auto'
subprocess, add an equivalent option with a different name to be more
descriptive of the new behavior: '--[no-]maintenance'. Update the
documentation to include these options at the same time.

Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).
This patch converts all of the files in builtin/ to keep the diff to a
manageable size.
The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |

When "git am --show-current-patch" was added in commit 984913a210 ("am:
add --show-current-patch", 2018-02-12), "git am" started recommending it
as a replacement for .git/rebase-merge/patch. Unfortunately the suggestion
is somewhat misguided; for example, the output "git am --show-current-patch"
cannot be passed to "git apply" if it is encoded as quoted-printable or
base64. To simplify worktree operations and to avoid that users poke into
.git, it would be better if "git am" also provided a mode that copies
.git/rebase-merge/patch to stdout.
One possibility could be to have completely separate options, introducing
for example --show-current-message (for .git/rebase-apply/NNNN)
and --show-current-diff (for .git/rebase-apply/patch), while possibly
deprecating --show-current-patch.
That would even remove the need for the first two patches in the series.
However, the long common prefix would have prevented using an abbreviated
option such as "--show". Therefore, I chose instead to add a string
argument to --show-current-patch. The new argument is optional, so that
"git am --show-current-patch"'s behavior remains backwards-compatible.
The next choice to make is how to handle multiple --show-current-patch
options. Right now, something like "git am --abort --show-current-patch"
is rejected, and the previous suggestion would likewise have naturally
rejected a command line like
git am --show-current-message --show-current-diff
Therefore, I decided to also reject for example
git am --show-current-patch=diff --show-current-patch=raw
In other words the whole of --show-current-patch=xxx (including the
optional argument) is treated as the command mode. I found this to be
more consistent and intuitive, even though it differs from the usual
"last one wins" semantics of the git command line.
Add the code to parse submodes based on the above design, where for now
"raw" is the only valid submode. "raw" prints the full e-mail message
just like "git am --show-current-patch".

This will allow stashing the submode of --show-current-patch from a
callback function. Using a struct will allow accessing both fields from
outside cmd_am (through container_of).
