057e713 (Warn use of "origin" when remotes/origin/HEAD is dangling,
2009-02-08) tried to warn dangling refs/remotes/origin/HEAD only when
"origin" was used to refer to it. There was one corner case a symref is
expected to be dangling and this warning is unwarranted: HEAD in an empty
repository.
This squelches the warning for this special case.

The previous one squelched the diagnositic message we used to issue every
time we enumerated the refs and noticed a dangling ref. This adds the
warning back to the place where the user actually attempts to use it.

This can be used to scan only the last few kilobytes of a reflog, as a

found near the end of it. The caller is expected to fall back to the

You can have quite a many reflog entries, but you typically won't recall
which branch you were on after switching branches for more than several
times.
Instead of reading the reflog twice, this reads the branch switching event
and keeps as many entries as the user asked from the latest such entries,
which is the minimum required to be able to switch back to the branch we
were recently on.

As we support seconds-since-epoch in $GIT_COMMITTER_TIME we should
also support it in a reflog @{...} style notation. We can easily
tell this part from @{nth} style notation by looking to see if the
value is unreasonably large for an @{nth} style notation.
The value 100000000 was chosen as it is already used by date.c to
disambiguate yyyymmdd format from a seconds-since-epoch time value.
A reflog with 100,000,000 record entries is also simply not valid.
Such a reflog would require at least 7.7 GB to store just the old
and new SHA-1 values. So our randomly chosen upper limit for @{nth}
notation is "big enough".

f2eba66 (Enable HEAD@{...} and make it independent from the current

calling refsolve_ref(). It should call it as a reader to make sure the

In get_sha1_basic, we parse a string like
HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path/to/file
into its constituent ref, reflog date, and path components.
We never actually munge the string itself, but instead keep
offsets into the string with their associated lengths.
When we call approxidate on the contents inside braces,
however, we pass just a string without a length. This means
that approxidate could sometimes look past the closing brace
and (erroneously) interpret the rest of the string as part
of the date.

I think it would make more sense for rev~ to have the same guarantees that

giving a number would have the same effect of defaulting to 1, not 0.
Right now it's a bit illogical, but at least it's an _undocumented_

This patch makes '^' and '~' act the same for the default count (i.e. both
default to 1), and also have the same behaviour for a count of zero.

The function returned NULL when no object that matches the name
was found, but that made the callers more complicated, as nobody
used that NULL return as an indication that no object with such
a name exists. They (at least the careful ones) instead took
the full 40-hexdigit and used in such a case, and the careless
ones segfaulted.
With this "git rev-parse --short 5555555555555555555555555555555555555555"
would stop segfaulting.
This is based on Jeff King's rewrite to my RFC patch, but "missing"
logic swapped to "exists". The final logic reads:
For existing objects, make sure the abbreviated string uniquely
identifies it. Otherwise, make sure the abbreviated string is
long enough so that it would not name any existing object.

This change removes all obvious useless if-before-free tests.
E.g., it replaces code like this:
if (some_expression)
free (some_expression);
with the now-equivalent:
free (some_expression);
It is equivalent not just because POSIX has required free(NULL)
to work for a long time, but simply because it has worked for
so long that no reasonable porting target fails the test.
Here's some evidence from nearly 1.5 years ago:
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2006-October/031544.html
FYI, the change below was prepared by running the following:
git ls-files -z | xargs -0 \
perl -0x3b -pi -e \
's/\bif\s*\(\s*(\S+?)(?:\s*!=\s*NULL)?\s*\)\s+(free\s*\(\s*\1\s*\))/$2/s'
Note however, that it doesn't handle brace-enclosed blocks like
"if (x) { free (x); }". But that's ok, since there were none like
that in git sources.
Beware: if you do use the above snippet, note that it can
produce syntactically invalid C code. That happens when the
affected "if"-statement has a matching "else".
E.g., it would transform this
if (x)
free (x);
else
foo ();
into this:
free (x);
else
foo ();
There were none of those here, either.
If you're interested in automating detection of the useless
tests, you might like the useless-if-before-free script in gnulib:
[it *does* detect brace-enclosed free statements, and has a --name=S
option to make it detect free-like functions with different names]

This converts the index explicitly on read and write to its on-disk
format, allowing the in-core format to contain more flags, and be
simpler.
In particular, the in-core format is now host-endian (as opposed to the
on-disk one that is network endian in order to be able to be shared
across machines) and as a result we can dispense with all the
htonl/ntohl on accesses to the cache_entry fields.
This will make it easier to make use of various temporary flags that do
not exist in the on-disk format.

We use at least two rulesets for matching abbreviated refnames with
full refnames (starting with 'refs/'). git-rev-parse and git-fetch
use slightly different rules.
This commit introduces a new function refname_match
(const char *abbrev_name, const char *full_name, const char **rules).
abbrev_name is expanded using the rules and matched against full_name.
If a match is found the function returns true. rules is a NULL-terminate
list of format patterns with "%.*s", for example:
const char *ref_rev_parse_rules[] = {
"%.*s",
"refs/%.*s",
"refs/tags/%.*s",
"refs/heads/%.*s",
"refs/remotes/%.*s",
"refs/remotes/%.*s/HEAD",
NULL
};
Asterisks are included in the format strings because this is the form
required in sha1_name.c. Sharing the list with the functions there is
a good idea to avoid duplicating the rules. Hopefully this
facilitates unified matching rules in the future.
This commit makes the rules used by rev-parse for resolving refs to
sha1s available for string comparison. Before this change, the rules
were buried in get_sha1*() and dwim_ref().
A follow-up commit will refactor the rules used by fetch.
refname_match() will be used for matching refspecs in git-send-pack.
