This patch adds a call to "update-index --refresh". It comes
as late as possible, so that we don't bother with it for
thinks like "git rebase --abort", or when mbox-splitting

helping smart-http/stateless-rpc fetch race
A request to fetch from a client over smart HTTP protocol is served in
multiple steps. In the first round, the server side shows the set of refs
it has and their values, and the client picks from them and sends "I want
to fetch the history leading to these commits".
When the server tries to respond to this second request, its refs may have
progressed by a push from elsewhere. By design, we do not allow fetching
objects that are not at the tip of an advertised ref, and the server
rejects such a request. The client needs to try again, which is not ideal
especially for a busy server.
Teach upload-pack (which is the workhorse driven by git-daemon and smart
http server interface) that it is OK for a smart-http client to ask for
commits that are not at the tip of any advertised ref, as long as they are
reachable from advertised refs.

filter-branch: Export variable `workdir' for --commit-filter
According to `git help filter-branch':
--commit-filter <command>
...
You can use the _map_ convenience function in this filter,
and other convenience functions, too...
...
However, it turns out that `map' hasn't been usable because it depends
on the variable `workdir', which is not propogated to the environment
of the shell that runs the commit-filter <command> because the
shell is created via a simple-command rather than a compound-command
subshell:
@SHELL_PATH@ -c "$filter_commit" "git commit-tree" \
$(git write-tree) $parentstr < ../message > ../map/$commit ||
die "could not write rewritten commit"
One solution is simply to export `workdir'. However, it seems rather
heavy-handed to export `workdir' to the environments of all commands,
so instead this commit exports `workdir' for only the duration of the
shell command in question:
workdir=$workdir @SHELL_PATH@ -c "$filter_commit" "git commit-tree" \
$(git write-tree) $parentstr < ../message > ../map/$commit ||

fast-export: quote paths in output
Many pathnames in a fast-import stream need to be quoted. In
particular:
1. Pathnames at the end of an "M" or "D" line need quoting
if they contain a LF or start with double-quote.
2. Pathnames on a "C" or "R" line need quoting as above,
but also if they contain spaces.
For (1), we weren't quoting at all. For (2), we put
double-quotes around the paths to handle spaces, but ignored
the possibility that they would need further quoting.
This patch checks whether each pathname needs c-style
quoting, and uses it. This is slightly overkill for (1),
which doesn't actually need to quote many characters that
vanilla c-style quoting does. However, it shouldn't hurt, as
any implementation needs to be ready to handle quoted
strings anyway.
In addition to adding a test, we have to tweak a test which
blindly assumed that case (2) would always use
double-quotes, whether it needed to or not.

diff -c/--cc: do not mistake "resolved as deletion" as "use working tree"
The combined diff machinery can be used to compare:
- a merge commit with its parent commits;
- a working-tree file with multiple stages in an unmerged index; or
- a working-tree file with the HEAD and the index.
The internal function combine-diff.c:show_patch_diff() checked if it needs
to read the "result" from the working tree by looking at the object name
of the result --- if it is null_sha1, it read from the working tree.
This mistook a merge that records a deletion as the conflict resolution
as if it is a cue to read from the working tree. Pass this information
explicitly from the caller instead.

notice error exit from pager
If the pager fails to run, git produces no output, e.g.:
$ GIT_PAGER=not-a-command git log
The error reporting fails for two reasons:
(1) start_command: There is a mechanism that detects errors during
execvp introduced in
2b541bf8 (start_command: detect execvp
failures early). The child writes one byte to a pipe only if
execvp fails. The parent waits for either EOF, when the
successful execvp automatically closes the pipe (see
FD_CLOEXEC in fcntl(1)), or it reads a single byte, in which
case it knows that the execvp failed. This mechanism is
incompatible with the workaround introduced in
35ce8622
(pager: Work around window resizing bug in 'less'), which
waits for input from the parent before the exec. Since both
the parent and the child are waiting for input from each
other, that would result in a deadlock. In order to avoid
that, the mechanism is disabled by closing the child_notifier
file descriptor.
(2) finish_command: The parent correctly detects the 127 exit
status from the child, but the error output goes nowhere,
since by that time it is already being redirected to the
child.
No simple solution for (1) comes to mind.
Number (2) can be solved by not sending error output to the pager.
Not redirecting error output to the pager can result in the pager
overwriting error output with standard output, however.
Since there is no reliable way to handle error reporting in the
parent, produce the output in the child instead.

tests: print failed test numbers at the end of the test run
On modern multi-core processors "make test" is often run in multiple jobs.
If one of them fails the test run does stop, but the concurrently running

doing a "ls -d t/trash*". But that only works when you don't use the "-i"

doc/fast-import: clarify notemodify command
The "notemodify" fast-import command was introduced in commit
a8dd2e7
(fast-import: Add support for importing commit notes, 2009-10-09)
The commit log has slightly different description than the added
documentation. The latter is somewhat confusing. "notemodify" is a
subcommand of "commit" command used to add a note for some commit.
Does this note annotate the commit produced by the "commit" command
or a commit given by it's committish parameter? Which notes tree
does it write notes to?
The exact meaning could be deduced with old description and some
notes machinery knowledge. But let's make it more obvious. This
command is used in a context like "commit refs/notes/test" to
add or rewrite an annotation for a committish parameter. So the
advised way to add notes in a fast-import stream is:
1) import some commits (optional)
2) prepare a "commit" to the notes tree:
2.1) choose notes ref, committer, log message, etc.
2.2) create annotations with "notemodify", where each can refer to
a commit being annotated via a branch name, import mark reference,
sha1 and other expressions specified in the Documentation.

git-submodule.sh: preserve stdin for the command spawned by foreach
The user-supplied command spawned by 'submodule foreach' loses its
connection to the original standard input. Instead, it is connected to the
output of a pipe within the git-submodule script. The user-supplied
command supplied to 'submodule foreach' is spawned within a while loop
which is being piped into. Due to the way shells implement piping output
to a while loop, a subshell is created with its standard input attached to
the output of the pipe. This results in all of the commands executed
within the while loop to have their stdins modified in the same way,
including the user-supplied command.
This can cause a problem if the command requires reading from stdin or if
it changes its behavior based on whether stdin is a tty or not. For
example, this problem was noticed when trying to execute the following:
git submodule foreach git shortlog --since=two.weeks.ago
which printed a message about entering the first submodule and produced no
further output and exited with a status of zero. In this case, shortlog
detected that it was not connected to a tty, and since no revision was
supplied as an argument, it attempted to read the list of revisions from
standard input. Instead, it slurped up the list of submodules that was
being piped to the enclosing while loop and caused that loop to end early
without processing the remaining submodules.
Work around this behavior by saving the original standard input file
descriptor before the while loop, and restoring it when spawning the
user-supplied command.
This fixes the tests in t7407.

When "git submodule add $path" is run to add a subdirectory $path to the

$URL that is outside the respository of the superproject to $path that

forgot to set it up.
The user is expressing the interest in the submodule and wants to keep a
checkout, the "submodule add" command should consistently set up the
submodule.$path.url entry in either case.
As a result "git submodule init" can't simply skip the initialization of
those submodules for which it finds an url entry in the git./config
anymore. That lead to problems when adding a submodule (which now sets the
url), add the "update" setting to .gitmodules and expect init to copy that

copy the "url" and "update" entries when they don't exist yet in the

The core.abbrevguard config variable had removed and
now core.abbrev has been used instead. Teach it.

glossary: clarify description of HEAD
HEAD on a branch does reference a commit via the branch ref it refers to.
The main difference of a detached HEAD is that it _directly_ refers to
a commit. Clarify this.

glossary: update description of "tag"
It is an unimportant implementation detail that ref namespaces are
implemented as subdirectories of $GIT_DIR/refs. What is more important
is that tags are in refs/tags hierarchy in the ref namespace.
Also note that a tag can point at an object of arbitrary type, not limited
to commit.
