In a shell snippet meant to be sourced by other shell scripts, an
opening #! line does more harm than good.
The harm:
- When the shell library is sourced, the interpreter and options from
the #! line are not used. Specifying a particular shell can
confuse the reader into thinking it is safe for the shell library
to rely on idiosyncrasies of that shell.
- Using #! instead of a plain comment drops a helpful visual clue
that this is a shell library and not a self-contained script.
- Tools such as lintian can use a #! line to tell when an
installation script has failed by forgetting to set a script
executable. This check does not work if shell libraries also start
with a #! line.
The good:
- Text editors notice the #! line and use it for syntax highlighting
if you try to edit the installed scripts (without ".sh" suffix) in
place.
The use of the #! for file type detection is not needed because Git's
shell libraries are meant to be edited in source form (with ".sh"
suffix). Replace the opening #! lines with comments.
This involves tweaking the test harness's valgrind support to find
shell libraries by looking for "# " in the first line instead of "#!"
(see v1.7.6-rc3~7, 2011-06-17).
Suggested by Russ Allbery through lintian. Thanks to Jeff King and
Clemens Buchacher for further analysis.
Tested by searching for non-executable scripts with #! line:
find . -name .git -prune -o -type f -not -executable |
while read file
do
read line <"$file"
case $line in
'#!'*)
echo "$file"
;;
esac
done
The only remaining scripts found are templates for shell scripts
(unimplemented.sh, wrap-for-bin.sh) and sample input used in tests
(t/t4034/perl/{pre,post}).

'git rebase' without arguments is currently not supported. Make it
default to 'git rebase @{upstream}'. That is also what 'git pull
[--rebase]' defaults to, so it only makes sense that 'git rebase'
defaults to the same thing.
Defaulting to @{upstream} will make it possible to run e.g. 'git
rebase -i' without arguments, which is probably a quite common use
case. It also improves the scenario where you have multiple branches
that rebase against a remote-tracking branch, where you currently have
to choose between the extra network delay of 'git pull' or the
slightly awkward keys to enter 'git rebase @{u}'.
The error reporting when no upstream is configured for the current
branch or when no branch is checked out is reused from git-pull.sh. A
function is extracted into git-parse-remote.sh for this purpose.

Some scripts are expected to be sourced instead of executed on their own.
Avoid some confusion by not marking them executable.
The executable bit was confusing the valgrind support of our test scripts,
which assumed that any executable without a #!-line should be intercepted
and run through valgrind. So during valgrind-enabled tests, any script
sourcing these files actually sourced the valgrind interception script
instead.

not only from the three defined: heads, tags and remotes.
Noticed when I tried to fetch the references created by git-p4-import.bat:
they are placed into separate namespace (refs/p4import/, to avoid showing
them in git-branch output). As canon_refs_list_for_fetch always prepended
refs/heads/ it was impossible, and annoying: it worked before. Normally,
the p4import references are useless anywhere but in the directory managed
by perforce, but in this special case the cloned directory was supposed
to be a backup, including the p4import branch: it keeps information about
where the imported perforce state came from.

This patch adds support for a dummy remote '.' to avoid having
to declare a fake remote like
[remote "local"]
url = .
fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/heads/*
Such a builtin remote simplifies the operation of "git-fetch",
which will populate FETCH_HEAD but will not pretend that two
repositories are in use, will not create a thin pack, and will
not perform any useless remapping of names. The speed
improvement is around 20%, and it should improve more if
"git-fetch" is converted to a builtin.
To this end, git-parse-remote is grown with a new kind of
remote, 'builtin'. In git-fetch.sh, we treat the builtin remote
specially in that it needs no pack/store operations. In fact,
doing git-fetch on a builtin remote will simply populate
FETCH_HEAD appropriately.
The patch also improves of the --track/--no-track support,
extending it so that branch.<name>.remote items referring '.'
can be created. Finally, it fixes a typo in git-checkout.sh.

This reverts commit 80c797764a.
Back when I committed this, it seemed to be a good idea. People
who always use remote tracking branches can optionally use the
local name they happen to use to specify what to merge, which meant
that I did not have to teach them why we use the name at the remote
side every time they are confused.
But allowing it seems to break other people's scripts. The real
solution is not to allow more ways to express the same thing, but
to educate people to use the right syntax.

This will not be backward compatible no matter how you cut it.

An earlier commit a71fb0a1 implemented much requested safety
valve to refuse "git pull" or "git pull origin" without explicit
refspecs from using the first set of remote refs obtained by
reading .git/remotes/origin file or branch.*.fetch configuration
variables to create a merge. The argument was that while on a
branch different from the default branch, it is often wrong to
merge the default remote ref suitable for merging into the master.
That is fine as a theory. But many repositories already in use
by people in the real world do not have any of the per branch
configuration crap. They did not need it, and they do not need
it now. Merging with the first remote ref listed was just fine,
because they had only one ref (e.g. 'master' from linux-2.6.git)
anyway.
So this changes the safety valve to be a lot looser. When "git
fetch" gets only one remote branch, the irritating warning would
not trigger anymore.
I think we could also make the warning trigger when branch.*.merge
is not specified for the current branch, but is for some other
branch. That is for another commit.

This reverts commit a71fb0a141.
The logic to decide when to refuse to use the default "first set of
refs fetched" for merge was utterly bogus.
In a repository that happily worked correctly without any of the
per-branch configuration crap did not have (and did not have to
have) any branch.<current>.merge. With that broken commit, pulling
from origin no longer would work.
The warning triggered even when running "git fetch" only
when resulting .git/FETCH_HEAD only contained
branches marked as 'not-for-merge'.
