The slower path uses the struct diff_options member found_changes to

It's not set for unmerged files, though, resulting in exit code 0.

The TRANSACTION_NAME_CONFLICT error code refers to a failure to create a
ref due to a name conflict with another ref. An example of this is a
directory/file conflict such as ref names A/B and A.
"git fetch" uses this error code to more accurately describe the error
by recommending to the user that they try running "git remote prune" to
remove any old refs that are deleted by the remote which would clear up
any directory/file conflicts.
This helpful error message is not displayed when the conflicted ref is
stored in packed refs. This change fixes this by ensuring error return
code consistency in `lock_raw_ref`.

In GNU Make commit 07fcee35 ([SV 64815] Recipe lines cannot contain
conditional statements, 2023-05-22) and following, conditional
statements may no longer be preceded by a tab character (which Make
refers to as the recipe prefix).
There are a handful of spots in our various Makefile(s) which will break
in a future release of Make containing 07fcee35. For instance, trying to
compile the pre-image of this patch with the tip of make.git results in
the following:
$ make -v | head -1 && make
GNU Make 4.4.90
config.mak.uname:842: *** missing 'endif'. Stop.
The kernel addressed this issue in 82175d1f9430 (kbuild: Replace tabs
with spaces when followed by conditionals, 2024-01-28). Address the
issues in Git's tree by applying the same strategy.
When a conditional word (ifeq, ifneq, ifdef, etc.) is preceded by one or
more tab characters, replace each tab character with 8 space characters
with the following:
find . -type f -not -path './.git/*' -name Makefile -or -name '*.mak' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/(\t+)(ifn?eq|ifn?def|else|endif)/" " x (length($1) * 8) . $2/ge unless /\\$/
'
The "unless /\\$/" removes any false-positives (like "\telse \"
appearing within a shell script as part of a recipe).
After doing so, Git compiles on newer versions of Make:
$ make -v | head -1 && make
GNU Make 4.4.90
GIT_VERSION = 2.44.0.414.gfac1dc44ca9

Commit 3c50032ff5 (attr: ignore overly large gitattributes files,
2022-12-01) added a defense-in-depth check to ensure that .gitattributes
blobs read from the index do not exceed ATTR_MAX_FILE_SIZE (100 MB).
But there were two cases added shortly after 3c50032ff5 was written
which do not apply similar protections:
- 47cfc9bd7d (attr: add flag `--source` to work with tree-ish,
2023-01-14)
- 4723ae1007 (attr.c: read attributes in a sparse directory,
2023-08-11) added a similar
Ensure that we refuse to process a .gitattributes blob exceeding
ATTR_MAX_FILE_SIZE when reading from either an arbitrary tree object or
a sparse directory. This is done by pushing the ATTR_MAX_FILE_SIZE check
down into the low-level `read_attr_from_buf()`.
In doing so, plug a leak in `read_attr_from_index()` where we would
accidentally leak the large buffer upon detecting it is too large to
process.
(Since `read_attr_from_buf()` handles a NULL buffer input, we can remove
a NULL check before calling it in `read_attr_from_index()` as well).

Advice hints must be disabled individually by setting the relevant

cumbersome to maintain configuration to ensure all advice hints are
disabled in perpetuity. This is a particular concern in tests, where
new or changed hints can result in failed assertions.
Add a --no-advice global option to disable all advice hints from being

configuration is propagated to the usage site, even if it executes in a

With 23865355 (attr: read attributes from HEAD when bare repo,
2023-10-13), we started to use the HEAD tree as the default
attribute source in a bare repository. One argument for such a
behaviour is that it would make things like "git archive" run in
bare and non-bare repositories for the same commit consistent.
This changes was merged to Git 2.43 but without an explicit mention
in its release notes.
It turns out that this change destroys performance of shallowly
cloning from a bare repository. As the "server" installations are
expected to be mostly bare, and "git pack-objects", which is the
core of driving the other side of "git clone" and "git fetch" wants
to see if a path is set not to delta with blobs from other paths via
the attribute system, the change forces the server side to traverse
the tree of the HEAD commit needlessly to find if each and every
paths the objects it sends out has the attribute that controls the
deltification. Given that (1) most projects do not configure such
an attribute, and (2) it is dubious for the server side to honor
such an end-user supplied attribute anyway, this was a poor choice
of the default.
To mitigate the current situation, let's revert the change that uses
the tree of HEAD in a bare repository by default as the attribute
source. This will help most people who have been happy with the
behaviour of Git 2.42 and before.
Two things to note:
* If you are stuck with versions of Git 2.43 or newer, that is
older than the release this fix appears in, you can explicitly
set the attr.tree configuration variable to point at an empty
tree object, i.e.
$ git config attr.tree 4b825dc642
* If you like the behaviour we are reverting, you can explicitly
set the attr.tree configuration variable to HEAD, i.e.
$ git config attr.tree HEAD
The right fix for this is to optimize the code paths that allow
accesses to attributes in tree objects, but that is a much more
involved change and is left as a longer-term project, outside the
scope of this "first step" fix.

In 13211ae23f (trailer: separate public from internal portion of
trailer_iterator, 2023-09-09) we moved trailer_info behind an anonymous
struct to discourage use by trailer.h API users. However it still left
open the possibility of external use of trailer_info itself. Now that
there are no external users of trailer_info, we can make this struct
private.
Make this struct private by putting its definition inside trailer.c.
This has two benefits:
(1) it makes the surface area of the public facing
interface (trailer.h) smaller, and
(2) external API users are unable to peer inside this struct (because
it is only ever exposed as an opaque pointer).
There are a few disadvantages:
(A) every time the member of the struct is accessed an extra pointer
dereference must be done, and
(B) for users of trailer_info outside trailer.c, this struct can no
longer be allocated on the stack and may only be allocated on the
heap (because its definition is hidden away in trailer.c) and
appropriately deallocated by the user, and
(C) without good documentation on the API, the opaque struct is
hostile to programmers by going opposite to the "Show me your
data structures, and I won't usually need your code; it'll
be obvious." mantra [2].
(The disadvantages have already been observed in the two preparatory
commits that precede this one.) This commit believes that the benefits
outweigh the disadvantages for designing APIs, as explained below.
Making trailer_info private exposes existing deficiencies in the API.
This is because users of this struct had full access to its internals,
so there wasn't much need to actually design it to be "complete" in the
sense that API users only needed to use what was provided by the API.
For example, the location of the trailer block (start/end offsets
relative to the start of the input text) was accessible by looking at
these struct members directly. Now that the struct is private, we have
to expose new API functions to allow clients to access this
information (see builtin/interpret-trailers.c).
The idea in this commit to hide implementation details behind an "opaque
pointer" is also known as the "pimpl" (pointer to implementation) idiom
in C++ and is a common pattern in that language (where, for example,
abstract classes only have pointers to concrete classes).
However, the original inspiration to use this idiom does not come from
C++, but instead the book "C Interfaces and Implementations: Techniques
for Creating Reusable Software" [1]. This book recommends opaque
pointers as a good design principle for designing C libraries, using the
term "interface" as the functions defined in *.h (header) files and
"implementation" as the corresponding *.c file which define the
interfaces.
The book says this about opaque pointers:
... clients can manipulate such pointers freely, but they can’t
dereference them; that is, they can’t look at the innards of the
structure pointed to by them. Only the implementation has that
privilege. Opaque pointers hide representation details and help
catch errors.
In our case, "struct trailer_info" is now hidden from clients, and the
ways in which this opaque pointer can be used is limited to the richness
of <trailer.h>. In other words, <trailer.h> exclusively controls exactly
how "trailer_info" pointers are to be used.

This is the second and final preparatory commit for making the
trailer_info struct private to the trailer implementation.
Make trailer_info_get() do the actual work of allocating a new
trailer_info struct, and return a pointer to it. Because
parse_trailers() wraps around trailer_info_get(), it too can return this
pointer to the caller. From the trailer API user's perspective, the call
to trailer_info_new() can be replaced with parse_trailers(); do so in
interpret-trailers.
Because trailer_info_new() is no longer called by interpret-trailers,
remove this function from the trailer API.
With this change, we no longer allocate trailer_info on the stack ---
all uses of it are via a pointer where the actual data is always
allocated at runtime through trailer_info_new(). Make
trailer_info_release() free this dynamically allocated memory.
Finally, due to the way the function signatures of parse_trailers() and
trailer_info_get() have changed, update the callsites in
format_trailers_from_commit() and trailer_iterator_init() accordingly.

Instead of calling "trailer_info_get()", which is a low-level function
in the trailers implementation (trailer.c), call
trailer_iterator_advance(), which was specifically designed for public
consumption in f0939a0eb1 (trailer: add interface for iterating over
commit trailers, 2020-09-27).
Avoiding "trailer_info_get()" means we don't have to worry about options
like "no_divider" (relevant for parsing trailers). We also don't have to
check for things like "info.trailer_start == info.trailer_end" to see
whether there were any trailers (instead we can just check to see
whether the iterator advanced at all).
Note how we have to use "iter.raw" in order to get the same behavior as
before when we iterated over the unparsed string array (char **trailers)
in trailer_info.

Previously the iterator did not iterate over non-trailer lines. This was
somewhat unfortunate, because trailer blocks could have non-trailer
lines in them since 146245063e (trailer: allow non-trailers in trailer
block, 2016-10-21), which was before the iterator was created in
f0939a0eb1 (trailer: add interface for iterating over commit trailers,
2020-09-27).
So if trailer API users wanted to iterate over all lines in a trailer
block (including non-trailer lines), they could not use the iterator and
were forced to use the lower-level trailer_info struct directly (which
provides a raw string array that includes all lines in the trailer
block).
Change the iterator's behavior so that we also iterate over non-trailer
lines, instead of skipping over them. The new "raw" member of the
iterator allows API users to access previously inaccessible non-trailer
lines. Reword the variable "trailer" to just "line" because this
variable can now hold both trailer lines _and_ non-trailer lines.
The new "raw" member is important because anyone currently not using the
iterator is using trailer_info's raw string array directly to access
lines to check what the combined key + value looks like. If we didn't
provide a "raw" member here, iterator users would have to re-construct
the unparsed line by concatenating the key and value back together again

When "git rev-parse" is run with the "--is-inside-work-tree" option
and friends outside a Git repository, the command exits with a
non-zero status and says "fatal: not a repository". While it is not
wrong per-se, in the sense that it is useless to learn if we are
inside or outside a working tree in the first place when we are not
even in a repository, it could be argued that they should emit
"false" and exit with status 0, as they cannot possibly be "true".
As the current behaviour has been with us for a decade or more
since it was introduced in Git 1.5.3 timeframe, it is too late to
change it.
And arguably, the current behaviour is easier to use if you want to
distinguish among three states, i.e.,
(1) the cwd is not controlled by Git at all
(2) the cwd is inside a working tree
(3) the cwd is not inside a working tree (e.g., .git/hooks/)
with a single invocation of the command by doing
if inout=$(git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree)
then
case "$inout" in
true) : in a working tree ;;
false) : not in a working tree ;;
esac
else
: not in a repository
fi
So, let's document clearly that the command will die() when run
outside a repository in general, unless in some special cases like
when the command is in the --parseopt mode.
While at it, update the introductory text that makes it sound as if
the primary operating mode is the only operating mode of the
command, which was written long before we added "--parseopt" and

Completing commands like "git rebase" in one repository will leak the
local __git_repo_path into the shell's environment so that completing
commands after changing to a different repository will give the old
repository's references (or none at all).
The bug report on the mailing list [1] suggests one simple way to observe
this yourself:
Enter the following commands from some directory:
mkdir a b b/c
for d (a b); git -C $d init && git -C $d commit --allow-empty -m init
cd a
git branch foo
pushd ../b/c
git branch bar
Now type these:
git rebase <TAB>… # completion for bar available; C-c to abort
declare -p __git_repo_path # outputs /path/to/b/.git
popd
git branch # outputs foo, main
git rebase <TAB>… # completion candidates are bar, main!
Ideally, the last typed <TAB> should be yielding foo, main.
Commit beb6ee7163 (completion: extract repository discovery from
__gitdir(), 2017-02-03) anticipated this problem by marking
__git_repo_path as local in __git_main and __gitk_main for Bash
completion but did not give the same mark to _git for Zsh completion.
Thus make __git_repo_path local for Zsh completion, too.

The "--rfc" option of "git format-patch" learned to take an
optional string value to be used in place of "RFC" to tweak the
"[PATCH]" on the subject header.
* jc/format-patch-rfc-more:
format-patch: "--rfc=-(WIP)" appends to produce [PATCH (WIP)]
format-patch: allow --rfc to optionally take a value, like --rfc=WIP
The "-k" and "--rfc" options of "format-patch" will now error out
when used together, as one tells us not to add anything to the
title of the commit, and the other one tells us to add "RFC" in
addition to "PATCH".
* ds/format-patch-rfc-and-k:
format-patch: ensure that --rfc and -k are mutually exclusive
The procedure to build multi-pack-index got confused by the
replace-refs mechanism, which has been corrected by disabling the
latter.
* xx/disable-replace-when-building-midx:
midx: disable replace objects
"git rebase --signoff" used to forget that it needs to add a
sign-off to the resulting commit when told to continue after a
conflict stops its operation.
* pw/rebase-m-signoff-fix:
rebase -m: fix --signoff with conflicts
sequencer: store commit message in private context
sequencer: move current fixups to private context
sequencer: start removing private fields from public API
sequencer: always free "struct replay_opts"
When the user gives an unknown command to the "add -p" prompt, the list
of accepted commands with their explanation is given. This is the same
output they get when they say '?'.
However, the unknown command may be due to a user input error rather
than the user not knowing the valid command.
To reduce the likelihood of user confusion and error repetition, instead
of displaying the list of accepted commands, display a short error
message with the unknown command received, as feedback to the user.
Include a reminder about the current command '?' in the new message, to
guide the user if they want help.

There is no need to show some UI messages on stderr, and yet doing so
may produce some undesirable results, such as messages appearing in an
unexpected order.
Let's use stdout for all UI messages, and adjusts the tests accordingly.
