It is possible for the remote summary line to be displayed over the local progress display line, and therefore that local progress gets bumped to the next line. However, if the progress line is long enough, it might not be entirely overwritten by the remote summary line. This creates a messed up display such as: remote: Total 310 (delta 160), reused 178 (delta 112)iB/s Receiving objects: 100% (310/310), 379.98 KiB | 136 KiB/s, done. So we have to clear the screen line before displaying the remote message to make sure the local progress is not visible anymore on the first line. Yet some Git versions on the remote side might be sending updates to the same line and terminate it with \r, and a separate packet with a single \n might be sent later when the progress display is done. This means the screen line must *not* be cleared in that case. Since the sideband code already has to figure out line breaks in the received packet to properly prepend the "remote:" prefix, we can easily determine if the remote line about to be displayed is empty. Only when it is not then a proper suffix is inserted before the \r or \n to clear the end of the screen line. Also some magic constants related to the prefix length have been replaced with a variable, making it similar to the suffix length handling. Since gcc is smart enough to detect that the variable is constant there is no impact on the generated code.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// GIT - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt. Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
