With some workflows, it is more suitable to rebase on top of remote
changes when a push does not fast-forward. Change the advice messages
in git-push to suggest that a user "integrate the remote changes"
instead of "merge the remote changes" to make this slightly clearer.
Also change the suggested 'git pull' to 'git pull ...' to hint to users
that they may want to add other parameters.

Format-patch generates emails with the "From" address set to the
author of each patch. If you are going to send the emails, however,
you would want to replace the author identity with yours (if they
are not the same), and bump the author identity to an in-body
header.
Normally this is handled by git-send-email, which does the
transformation before sending out the emails. However, some
workflows may not use send-email (e.g., imap-send, or a custom
script which feeds the mbox to a non-git MUA). They could each
implement this feature themselves, but getting it right is
non-trivial (one must canonicalize the identities by reversing any
RFC2047 encoding or RFC822 quoting of the headers, which has caused
many bugs in send-email over the years).
This patch takes a different approach: it teaches format-patch a
"--from" option which handles the ident check and in-body header
while it is writing out the email. It's much simpler to do at this
level (because we haven't done any quoting yet), and any workflow
based on format-patch can easily turn it on.

These three options mean "favor fast-forwarding when possible,
without creating an unnecessary merge", "never fast-forward and
always create a merge commit even when the commit being merged is a
strict descendant", and "we do not want to create any merge commit;
update only when the merged commit is a strict descendant".
They are "pick one out of these three possibilities" options, and
correspond to "merge.ff" configuration that is tri-state (yes, no
and only).
However, the implementation did not follow the usual convention for
the command line options (later one wins, and command line overrides
what is in the configuration).
Fix this by consolidating two variables (fast_forward_only and
allow_fast_forward) used in the implementation into one enum that
can take one of the three possible values.

from terminal encoding are shown corrupted even when i18n.logOutputEncoding
and terminal encoding are the same (e.g. log messages committed on a Cygwin box
with Windows-1251 encoding seen on a Linux box with a UTF-8 encoding and vice versa).
To simplify an example we can say the following two commands are expected
to give the same output to a terminal:
$ git log --oneline --no-color
$ git log --pretty=format:'%h %s'
However, the former pays attention to i18n.logOutputEncoding
configuration, while the latter does not when it formats "%s".
The same corruption is true for
$ git diff --submodule=log
and
$ git rev-list --pretty=format:%s HEAD
and
$ git reset --hard
This patch makes pretty --format honor logOutputEncoding when it formats
log message.

quote_path_relative() used to take a counted string as its parameter
(the string to be quoted). With an earlier change, it now uses
relative_path() that does not take a counted string, and we have
been passing only the pointer to the string since then.
Remove the length parameter from quote_path_relative() to show that
this parameter was redundant. All the changed lines show that the
caller passed either -1 (to ask the function run strlen() on the
string), or the length of the string, so the earlier conversion was
safe.
All the callers of quote_path_relative() that used to take counted string
have been audited to make sure that they are passing length of the actual

Substitute the function path_relative in quote.c with the function
relative_path. Function relative_path can be treated as an enhanced
and more robust version of path_relative.
Outputs of path_relative and it's replacement (relative_path) are the
same for the following cases:
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a/b/c/ /a/b/ c/ c/
/a/b/c /a/b/ c c
/a/ /a/b/ ../ ../
/ /a/b/ ../../ ../../
/a/c /a/b/ ../c ../c
/x/y /a/b/ ../../x/y ../../x/y
a/b/c/ a/b/ c/ c/
a/ a/b/ ../ ../
x/y a/b/ ../../x/y ../../x/y
/a/b (empty) /a/b /a/b
/a/b (null) /a/b /a/b
a/b (empty) a/b a/b
a/b (null) a/b a/b
But if both of the path and the prefix are the same, or the returned
relative path should be the current directory, the outputs of both
functions are different. Function relative_path returns "./", while
function path_relative returns empty string.
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a/b/ /a/b/ (empty) ./
a/b/ a/b/ (empty) ./
(empty) (null) (empty) ./
(empty) (empty) (empty) ./
But the callers of path_relative can handle such cases, or never
encounter this issue at all, because:
* In function quote_path_relative, if the output of path_relative is
empty, append "./" to it, like:
if (!out->len)
strbuf_addstr(out, "./");
* Another caller is write_name_quoted_relative, which is only used
by builtin/ls-files.c. git-ls-files only show files, so path of
files will never be identical with the prefix of a directory.
The following differences show that path_relative does not handle
extra slashes properly:
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a//b//c/ //a/b// ../../../../a//b//c/ c/
a/b//c a//b ../b//c c
And if prefix has no trailing slash, path_relative does not work
properly either. But since prefix always has a trailing slash, it's
not a problem.
path prefix output of path_relative output of relative_path
======== ========= ======================= =======================
/a/b/c/ /a/b b/c/ c/
/a/b /a/b b ./
/a/b/ /a/b b/ ./
/a /a/b/ ../../a ../
a/b/c/ a/b b/c/ c/
a/b/ a/b b/ ./
a a/b ../a ../
x/y a/b/ ../x/y ../../x/y
a/c a/b c ../c
/a/ /a/b (empty) ../
(empty) /a/b ../../ ./
One tricky part in this conversion is write_name() function in
ls-files.c. It takes a counted string, <name, len>, that is to be
made relative to <prefix, prefix_len> and then quoted. Because
write_name_quoted_relative() still takes these two parameters as
counted string, but ignores the count and treat these two as
NUL-terminated strings, this conversion needs to be audited for its
callers:
- For <name, len>, all three callers of write_name() passes a
NUL-terminated string and its true length, so this patch makes
"len" unused.
- For <prefix, prefix_len>, prefix could be a string that is longer
than empty while prefix_len could be 0 when "--full-name" option
is used. This is fixed by checking prefix_len in write_name()
and calling write_name_quoted_relative() with NULL when
prefix_len is set to 0. Again, this makes "prefix_len" given to
write_name_quoted_relative() unused, without introducing a bug.

When remote.pushdefault or branch.<name>.pushremote is set to a
remote that is different from where you usually fetch from (i.e. a
triangular workflow), master@{u} != origin, and push.default is set
to `upstream` or `simple` would fail with this error:
$ git push
fatal: You are pushing to remote 'origin', which is not the upstream of
your current branch 'master', without telling me what to push
to update which remote branch.
The very name of "upstream" indicates that it is only suitable for
use in central workflows; let us not even attempt to give it a new
meaning in triangular workflows, and error out as before.
However, the `simple` does not have to share this error. It is
poised to be the default for Git 2.0, and we would like it to do
something sensible in triangular workflows.
Redefine "simple" as "safer upstream" for centralized workflow as
before, but work as "current" for triangular workflow.
We may want to make it "safer current", but that is a separate

searching the pattern against its substrings in turn:
