ee0d7bf925 Symlink mergetools scriptlets into valgrind wrappers
Since bc7a96a (mergetool--lib: Refactor tools into separate files,
2011-08-18) the mergetools and difftools related tests fail under
--valgrind because the mergetools/* scriptlets are not in the exec
path.

For now, symlink the mergetools subdir into the t/valgrind/bin
directory as a whole, since it does not contain anything of interest
to the valgrind wrappers.

8cb5775b2b grep: Fix race condition in delta_base_cache
When running large git grep (ie: git grep regexp $(git rev-list --all)), glibc error sometimes occur:
*** glibc detected *** git: double free or corruption (!prev): 0x00000000010abdf0 ***

According to gdb the problem originate from release_delta_cash (sha1_file.c:1703)
		free(ent->data);

>From my analysis it seems that git grep threads do acquire lock before calling read_sha1_file but not before calling
read_object_with_reference who ends up calling read_sha1_file too.

Adding the lock around read_object_with_reference seems to fix the issue for me.
I've ran git grep about a dozen time and seen no more error while
it usually happened half the time before.

1ae9644410 t3903: fix misquoted rev-parse invocation
!"git ..." hopefully always succeeds because "git ..." is not the name
of any executable.  However, that's not what was intended.  Unquote
it, and while we're at it, also replace ! with test_must_fail since it
is a call to git.

b15b5b10a7 Documentation: clarify effects of -- <path> arguments
'git log -- <path>' does not "show commits that affect the specified
paths" in a literal sense unless --full-history is given (for example,
a file that only existed on a side branch will turn up no commits at
all!).

Reword it to specify the actual intent of the filtering, and point to
the "History Simplification" section.

b4fc8d6ac6 Documentation/remote-helpers: explain capabilities first
The current remote helper documentation is from the perspective of
git, so to speak: it presents a full menu of commands for a person
invoking a remote helper to choose from.  In practice, that's less
useful than it could be, since the daunted novice remote-helper author
probably just wanted a list of commands needs to implement to get
started.  So preface the command list with an overview of each
capability, its purpose, and what commands it requires.

As a side effect, this makes it a little clearer that git doesn't
choose arbitrary commands to run, even if the remote helper advertises
all capabilities --- instead, there are well defined command sequences
for various tasks.

8c74ef1e97 strbuf_grow(): maintain nul-termination even for new buffer
In the case where sb is initialized to the slopbuf (through
strbuf_init(sb,0) or STRBUF_INIT), strbuf_grow() loses the terminating
nul: it grows the buffer, but gives ALLOC_GROW a NULL source to avoid
it being freed.  So ALLOC_GROW does not copy anything to the new
memory area.

This subtly broke the call to strbuf_getline in read_next_command()
[fast-import.c:1855], which goes

    strbuf_detach(&command_buf, NULL);  # command_buf is now = STRBUF_INIT
    stdin_eof = strbuf_getline(&command_buf, stdin, '\n');
    if (stdin_eof)
            return EOF;

In strbuf_getwholeline, this did

    strbuf_grow(sb, 0);  # loses nul-termination
    if (feof(fp))
            return EOF;
    strbuf_reset(sb);    # this would have nul-terminated!

Valgrind found this because fast-import subsequently uses prefixcmp()
on command_buf.buf, which after the EOF exit contains only
uninitialized memory.

Arguably strbuf_getwholeline is also broken, in that it touches the
buffer before deciding whether to do any work.  However, it seems more
futureproof to not let the strbuf API lose the nul-termination by its
own fault.

So make sure that strbuf_grow() puts in a nul even if it has nowhere
to copy it from.  This makes strbuf_grow(sb, 0) a semantic no-op as
far as readers of the buffer are concerned.

Also remove the nul-termination added by strbuf_init, which is made
redudant.

688f4f2fbc t4014: "no-add-headers" is actually called "no-add-header"
Since c426003 (format-patch: add --no-cc, --no-to, and
--no-add-headers, 2010-03-07) the tests have checked for an option
called --no-add-headers introduced by letting the user negate
--add-header.

However, the parseopt machinery does not automatically pluralize
anything, so it is in fact called --no-add-header.

Since the option never worked, is not documented anywhere, and
implementing an actual --no-add-headers would lead to silly code
complications, we just adapt the test to the code.

cc663d141a t4014: check for empty files from git format-patch --stdout
Most kinds of failure in 'git format-patch --stdout >output' will
result in an empty 'output'.  This slips past checks that only verify
absence of output, such as the '! grep ...' that are quite prevalent
in t4014.

Introduce a helper check_patch() that checks that at least From, Date
and Subject are present, thus making sure it looks vaguely like a
patch (or cover letter) email.  Then insert calls to it in all tests
that do have positive checks for content.

This makes two of the tests fail.  Mark them as such; they'll be
fixed in a moment.

40e372563c unpack-trees: allow pruning with pathspec
Use the pathspec pruning of traverse_trees() from unpack_trees(). Again,
the unpack_trees() machinery is primarily meant for merging two (or more)
trees, and because a merge is a full tree operation, it didn't support any
pruning with pathspec, and this codepath probably should not be enabled
while running a merge, but the caller in diff-lib.c::diff_cache() should
be able to take advantage of it.

The traverse_trees() machinery is primarily meant for merging two (or

support any pruning with pathspec.

Since d1f2d7e (Make run_diff_index() use unpack_trees(), not read_tree(),
2008-01-19), however, we use unpack_trees() to traverse_trees() callchain
to perform "diff-index", which could waste a lot of work traversing trees
outside the user-supplied pathspec, only to discard at the blob comparison
level in diff-lib.c::oneway_diff() which is way too late.

b6194678b0 Documentation: clarify "git clean -e <pattern>"
The current explanation of -e can be misread as allowing the user to say

    I know 'git clean -XYZ' (substitute -XYZ with any option and/or
    parameter) will remove paths A, B, and C, and I want them all removed
    except for paths matching this pattern by adding '-e C' to the same
    command line, i.e. 'git clean -e C -XYZ'.

But that is not what this option does. It augments the set of ignore rules
from the command line, just like the same "-e <pattern>" argument does
with the "ls-files" command (the user could probably pass "-e \!C" to tell
the command to clean everything the command would normally remove, except
for C). Also error out when both -x and -e are given with an explanation of
what -e means---it is a symptom of misunderstanding what -e does.

It also fixes small style nit in the parameter to add_exclude() call. The
current code only works because EXC_CMDL happens to be defined as 0.

7474b8b452 git-stash: remove untracked/ignored directories when stashed
The two new stash options --include-untracked and --all do not remove the
untracked and/or ignored files that are stashed if those files reside in
a subdirectory. e.g. the following sequence fails:

   mkdir untracked &&
   echo hello >untracked/file.txt &&
   git stash --include-untracked &&
   test ! -f untracked/file.txt

Within the git-stash script, git-clean is used to remove the
untracked/ignored files, but since the -d option was not supplied, it does
not remove directories.

So, add -d to the git-clean arguments, and update the tests to test this
functionality.

ffaaed88ae rebase -i: clean error message for --continue after failed exec
After an "exec false" stops the rebase and gives the control back to
the user, if changes are added to the index, "rebase --continue" fails
with this message, which may technically be correct, but does not point
at the real problem:

.../git-rebase--interactive: line 774: .../.git/rebase-merge/author-script: No such file or directory

We could try auto-amending HEAD, but this goes against the logic of
.git/rebase-merge/author-script (see also the testcase 'auto-amend only
edited commits after "edit"' in t3404-rebase-interactive.sh) to
auto-amend something the user hasn't explicitely asked to edit.

Instead of doing anything automatically, detect the situation and give a
clean error message. While we're there, also clarify the error message in
case '. "$author_script"' fails, which now corresponds to really weird
senario where the author script exists but can't be read.

b9ad500262 log: Do not decorate replacements with --no-replace-objects
5267d29 (log: decorate "replaced" on to replaced commits, 2011-08-19)
introduced textual decorations for replaced commits, based on the
detection of refs/replace.

Make it so that additionally the use of --no-replace-objects is
detected: I.e. replaced commits are only decorated as replaced when they
are actually replaced.

c3502fa882 revision: do not include sibling history in --ancestry-path output
If the commit specified as the bottom of the commit range has a direct
parent that has another child commit that contributed to the resulting
history, "rev-list --ancestry-path" was confused and listed that side
history as well, due to the command line parser subtlety corrected by the
previous commit.

281eee4730 revision: keep track of the end-user input from the command line
Given a complex set of revision specifiers on the command line, it is too
late to look at the flags of the objects in the initial traversal list at
the beginning of limit_list() in order to determine what the objects the
end-user explicitly listed on the command line were. The process to move
objects from the pending array to the traversal list may have marked
objects that are not mentioned as UNINTERESTING, when handle_commit()
marked the parents of UNINTERESTING commits mentioned on the command line
by calling mark_parents_uninteresting().

This made "rev-list --ancestry-path ^A ..." to mistakenly list commits
that are descendants of A's parents but that are not descendants of A
itself, as ^A from the command line causes A and its parents marked as
UNINTERESTING before coming to limit_list(), and we try to enumerate the
commits that are descendants of these commits that are UNINTERESTING
before we start walking the history.

It actually is too late even if we inspected the pending object array
before calling prepare_revision_walk(), as some of the same objects might
have been mentioned twice, once as positive and another time as negative.
The "rev-list --some-option A --not --all" command may want to notice,
even if the resulting set is empty, that the user showed some interest in
"A" and do something special about it.

Prepare a separate array to keep track of what syntactic element was used
to cause each object to appear in the pending array from the command line,
and populate it as setup_revisions() parses the command line.
