Gives all paths builtin objectmode values based on the paths' modes
(one of 100644, 100755, 120000, 040000, 160000). Users may use
this feature to filter by file types. For example a pathspec such as
':(attr:builtin_objectmode=160000)' could filter for submodules without
needing to have `builtin_objectmode=160000` to be set in .gitattributes
for every submodule path.
These values are also reflected in `git check-attr` results.
If the git_attr_direction is set to GIT_ATTR_INDEX or GIT_ATTR_CHECKIN
and a path is not found in the index, the value will be unspecified.
This patch also reserves the builtin_* attribute namespace for objectmode
and any future builtin attributes. Any user defined attributes using this
reserved namespace will result in a warning. This is a breaking change for
any existing builtin_* attributes.
Pathspecs with some builtin_* attribute name (excluding builtin_objectmode)
will behave like any attribute where there are no user specified values.

When an external merge driver dies with a signal, we should not
expect that the result left on the filesystem is in any useful
state. However, because the current code uses the return value from
run_command() and declares any positive value as a sign that the
driver successfully left conflicts in the result, and because the
return value from run_command() for a subprocess that died upon a
signal is positive, we end up treating whatever garbage left on the
filesystem as the result the merge driver wanted to leave us.
run_command() returns larger than 128 (WTERMSIG(status) + 128, to be
exact) when it notices that the subprocess died with a signal, so
detect such a case and return LL_MERGE_ERROR from ll_ext_merge().

These two sentences are confusing because the description of the text
attribute sounds exactly the same as the description of the text=auto
attribute:
"Setting the text attribute on a path enables end-of-line normalization"
"When text is set to "auto", the path is marked for automatic
end-of-line conversion"
Unless the reader is already familiar with the two variants, there's a
high probability that they will think that "end-of-line normalization"
is the same thing as "automatic end-of-line conversion".
It's also not clear that the phrase "When the file has been committed
with CRLF, no conversion is done" in the paragraph for text=auto does
not apply equally to the bare text attribute which is described earlier.
Moreover, it falsely implies that normalization is only suppressed if
the file has been committed. In fact, running `git add` on a CRLF file,
adding the text=auto attribute to the file, and running `git add` again
does not do anything to the line endings either.
On top of that, in several places the documentation for the eol
attribute sounds like either it does not affect normalization on checkin
or it forces normalization on checkin. It also sounds like setting eol
(or setting a config variable) is required to turn on conversion on
checkout, but the text attribute can turn on conversion on checkout by
itself if eol is unspecified.
Rephrase the documentation of text, text=auto, eol, eol=crlf, and eol=lf
to be clear about how they are the same, how they are different, and in
what cases conversion is performed.

The "diff" drivers specified by the "diff" attribute attached to
paths can now specify which algorithm (e.g. histogram) to use.
* jc/diff-algo-attribute:
diff: teach diff to read algorithm from diff driver
diff: consolidate diff algorithm option parsing
|
|
It can be useful to specify diff algorithms per file type. For example,
one may want to use the minimal diff algorithm for .json files, another
for .c files, etc.
The diff machinery already checks attributes for a diff driver. Teach
the diff driver parser a new type "algorithm" to look for in the
config, which will be used if a driver has been specified through the
attributes.
Enforce precedence of the diff algorithm by favoring the command line
option, then looking at the driver attributes & config combination, then
finally the diff.algorithm config.
To enforce precedence order, use a new `ignore_driver_algorithm` member
during options parsing to indicate the diff algorithm was set via command
line args.

The documentation for the eol attribute states that it is "effectively
setting the text attribute". However, this implies that it forces the
text attribute to always be set, which has not been the case since
6523728499 ("convert: unify the "auto" handling of CRLF", 2016-06-28).
Let's avoid confusing users (and the present author when trying to
describe Git's behavior to others) by clearly documenting in which
cases the "eol" attribute has effect.
Specifically, the attribute always has an effect unless the file is
explicitly set as -text, or the file is set as text=auto and the file is
detected as binary.

We stopped allowing symlinks for .gitmodules files in 10ecfa7649
(verify_path: disallow symlinks in .gitmodules, 2018-05-04), and we
stopped following symlinks for .gitattributes, .gitignore, and .mailmap
in the commits from 204333b015 (Merge branch 'jk/open-dotgitx-with-nofollow',
2021-03-22). The reasons are discussed in detail there, but we never
adjusted the documentation to let users know.
This hasn't been a big deal since the point is that such setups were
mildly broken and thought to be unusual anyway. But it certainly doesn't
hurt to be clear and explicit about it.

Add a diff driver for Scheme-like languages which recognizes top level
and local `define` forms, whether it is a function definition, binding,
syntax definition or a user-defined `define-xyzzy` form.
Also supports R6RS `library` forms, `module` forms along with class and
struct declarations used in Racket (PLT Scheme).
Alternate "def" syntax such as those in Gerbil Scheme are also
supported, like defstruct, defsyntax and so on.
The rationale for picking `define` forms for the hunk headers is because
it is usually the only significant form for defining the structure of
the program, and it is a common pattern for schemers to have local
function definitions to hide their visibility, so it is not only the top
level `define`'s that are of interest. Schemers also extend the language
with macros to provide their own define forms (for example, something
like a `define-test-suite`) which is also captured in the hunk header.
Since it is common practice to extend syntax with variants of a form
like `module+`, `class*` etc, those have been supported as well.
The word regex is a best-effort attempt to conform to R7RS[1] valid
identifiers, symbols and numbers.

Every %(describe) placeholder in $Format:...$ strings in files with the
attribute export-subst is expanded by calling git describe. This can
potentially result in a lot of such calls per archive. That's OK for
local repositories under control of the user of git archive, but could
be a problem for hosted repositories.
Expand only a single %(describe) placeholder per archive for now to
avoid denial-of-service attacks. We can make this limit configurable
later if needed, but let's start out simple.

Support POSIX, bashism and mixed function declarations, all four
compound command types, trailing comments and mixed whitespace.
Even though Bash allows locale-dependent characters in function names
<https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/245336/3645>, only detect function
names with characters allowed by POSIX.1-2017
<https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap03.html#tag_03_235>
for simplicity. This should cover the vast majority of use cases, and
produces system-agnostic results.
Since a word pattern has to be specified, but there is no easy way to
know the default word pattern, use the default `IFS` characters for a
starter. A later patch can improve this.

It's typical to find Markdown documentation alongside source code, and
having better context for documentation changes is useful; see also
commit 69f9c87d4 (userdiff: add support for Fountain documents,
2015-07-21).
The pattern is based on the CommonMark specification 0.29, section 4.2
<https://spec.commonmark.org/> but doesn't match empty headings, as
seeing them in a hunk header is unlikely to be useful.
Only ATX headings are supported, as detecting setext headings would
require printing the line before a pattern matches, or matching a
multiline pattern. The word-diff pattern is the same as the pattern for
HTML, because many Markdown parsers accept inline HTML.

The Linux kernel receives many patches to the devicetree files each

making it difficult to figure out what node is being modified without
applying the patch or opening the file and seeking to the context. Let's
add a builtin 'dts' pattern to git so that users can get better diff
output on dts files when they use the diff=dts driver.
The regex has been constructed based on the spec at devicetree.org[1]

"git checkout" doing too many things is a source of confusion for many
users (and it even bites old timers sometimes). To remedy that, the
command will be split into two new ones: switch and restore. The good
old "git checkout" command is still here and will be until all (or most
of users) are sick of it.
See the new man page for the final design of switch. The actual
implementation though is still pretty much the same as "git checkout"
and not completely aligned with the man page. Following patches will
adjust their behavior to match the man page.

Users who want UTF-16 files in the working tree set the .gitattributes
like this:
test.txt working-tree-encoding=UTF-16
The unicode standard itself defines 3 allowed ways how to encode UTF-16.
The following 3 versions convert all back to 'g' 'i' 't' in UTF-8:
a) UTF-16, without BOM, big endian:
$ printf "\000g\000i\000t" | iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 | od -c
0000000 g i t
b) UTF-16, with BOM, little endian:
$ printf "\377\376g\000i\000t\000" | iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 | od -c
0000000 g i t
c) UTF-16, with BOM, big endian:
$ printf "\376\377\000g\000i\000t" | iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 | od -c
0000000 g i t
Git uses libiconv to convert from UTF-8 in the index into ITF-16 in the
working tree.
After a checkout, the resulting file has a BOM and is encoded in "UTF-16",
in the version (c) above.
This is what iconv generates, more details follow below.
iconv (and libiconv) can generate UTF-16, UTF-16LE or UTF-16BE:
d) UTF-16
$ printf 'git' | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16 | od -c
0000000 376 377 \0 g \0 i \0 t
e) UTF-16LE
$ printf 'git' | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16LE | od -c
0000000 g \0 i \0 t \0
f) UTF-16BE
$ printf 'git' | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16BE | od -c
0000000 \0 g \0 i \0 t
There is no way to generate version (b) from above in a Git working tree,
but that is what some applications need.
(All fully unicode aware applications should be able to read all 3 variants,
but in practise we are not there yet).
When producing UTF-16 as an output, iconv generates the big endian version
with a BOM. (big endian is probably chosen for historical reasons).
iconv can produce UTF-16 files with little endianess by using "UTF-16LE"
as encoding, and that file does not have a BOM.
Not all users (especially under Windows) are happy with this.
Some tools are not fully unicode aware and can only handle version (b).
Today there is no way to produce version (b) with iconv (or libiconv).
Looking into the history of iconv, it seems as if version (c) will
be used in all future iconv versions (for compatibility reasons).
Solve this dilemma and introduce a Git-specific "UTF-16LE-BOM".
libiconv can not handle the encoding, so Git pick it up, handles the BOM
and uses libiconv to convert the rest of the stream.
(UTF-16BE-BOM is added for consistency)

When formatted as a man page, 1st section header is always in upper
case even if we write it otherwise. Make all 1st section headers
uppercase to keep it close to the final output.
This does affect html since case is kept there, but I still think it's
a good idea to maintain a consistent style for 1st section headers.
Some sections perhaps should become second sections instead, where
case is kept, and for better organization. I will update if anyone has
suggestions about this.
While at there I also make some header more consistent (e.g. examples
vs example) and fix a couple minor things here and there.

UTF supports lossless conversion round tripping and conversions between
UTF and other encodings are mostly round trip safe as Unicode aims to be
a superset of all other character encodings. However, certain encodings
(e.g. SHIFT-JIS) are known to have round trip issues [1].
Add 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding', which contains a comma separated
list of encodings, to define for what encodings Git should check the
conversion round trip if they are used in the 'working-tree-encoding'
attribute.
Set SHIFT-JIS as default value for 'core.checkRoundtripEncoding'.

Git recognizes files encoded with ASCII or one of its supersets (e.g.
UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1) as text files. All other encodings are usually
interpreted as binary and consequently built-in Git text processing
tools (e.g. 'git diff') as well as most Git web front ends do not
visualize the content.
Add an attribute to tell Git what encoding the user has defined for a
given file. If the content is added to the index, then Git reencodes
the content to a canonical UTF-8 representation. On checkout Git will
reverse this operation.

The xfuncname regex finds functions, structs and interfaces. Although
the Go language prohibits the opening brace from being on its own
line, the regex does not makes it mandatory, to be able to match
`func` statements like this:
func foo(bar int,
baz int) {
}
This is covered by the test case t4018/golang-long-func.

Make it safer to normalize the line endings in a repository.
Files that had been commited with CRLF will be commited with LF.
The old way to normalize a repo was like this:
# Make sure that there are not untracked files
$ echo "* text=auto" >.gitattributes
$ git read-tree --empty
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Introduce end-of-line normalization"
The user must make sure that there are no untracked files,
otherwise they would have been added and tracked from now on.
The new "add --renormalize" does not add untracked files:
$ echo "* text=auto" >.gitattributes
$ git add --renormalize .
$ git commit -m "Introduce end-of-line normalization"
Note that "git add --renormalize <pathspec>" is the short form for
"git add -u --renormalize <pathspec>".
While at it, document that the same renormalization may be needed,
whenever a clean filter is added or changed.

When setting the `eol` attribute, paths can change their dirty status
without any change in the working directory. This can cause confusion
and should at least be mentioned with a remedy.
