2019-11-20pretty: implement 'reference' formatDenton Liu
The standard format for referencing other commits within some projects (such as git.git) is the reference format. This is described in Documentation/SubmittingPatches as If you want to reference a previous commit in the history of a stable branch, use the format "abbreviated hash (subject, date)", like this: .... Commit f86a374 (pack-bitmap.c: fix a memleak, 2015-03-30) noticed that ... .... Since this format is so commonly used, standardize it as a pretty format. The tests that are implemented essentially show that the format-string does not change in response to various log options. This is useful because, for future developers, it shows that we've considered the limitations of the "canned format-string" approach and we are fine with them.

2019-11-13hex: drop sha1_to_hex()Jeff King
There's only a single caller left of sha1_to_hex(), since everybody that has an object name in "unsigned char[]" now uses hash_to_hex() instead. This case is in the sha1dc wrapper, where we print a hex sha1 when we find a collision. This one will always be sha1, regardless of the current hash algorithm, so we can't use hash_to_hex() here. In practice we'd probably not be running sha1 at all if it isn't the current algorithm, but it's possible we might still occasionally need to compute a sha1 in a post-sha256 world. Since sha1_to_hex() is just a wrapper for hash_to_hex_algop(), let's call that ourselves. There's value in getting rid of the sha1-specific wrapper to de-clutter the global namespace, and to make sure nobody uses it (and as with sha1_to_hex_r() in the previous patch, we'll drop the coccinelle transformations, too). The sha1_to_hex() function is mentioned in a comment; we can easily swap that out for oid_to_hex() to give a better example. Also update the comment that was left stale when we added "struct object_id *" as a way to name an object and added functions to convert it to hex. The function is also mentioned in some test vectors in t4100, but that's not runnable code, so there's no point in trying to clean it up.

2019-11-12completion: learn to complete `git rebase --onto=`Denton Liu
In 2b9bd488ae ("completion: teach rebase to use __gitcomp_builtin", 2019-09-12), the completion script learned to complete rebase using __gitcomp_builtin(). However, this resulted in `--onto=` being suggested instead of `--onto `. Before, when there was a space, we'd start a new word and, as a result, fallback to __git_complete_refs() and `--onto` would be completed this way. However, now we match the `--*` case which does not know how to offer completions for refs. Teach _git_rebase() to complete refs in the `--onto=` case so that we fix this regression.

2019-11-11hex: drop sha1_to_hex_r()Jeff King
There are no callers left; everybody uses oid_to_hex_r() or hash_to_hex_algop_r(). This used to actually be the underlying implementation for oid_to_hex_r(), but that's no longer the case since 47edb64997 (hex: introduce functions to print arbitrary hashes, 2018-11-14). Let's get rid of it to de-clutter and to make sure nobody uses it. Likewise we can drop the coccinelle rules that mention it, since the compiler will make it quite clear that the code does not work.

2019-09-28contrib/buildsystems: fix Visual Studio Debug configurationAlexandr Miloslavskiy
Even though Debug configuration builds, the resulting build is incorrect in a subtle way: it mixes up Debug and Release binaries, which in turn causes hard-to-predict bugs. In my case, when git calls iconv library, iconv sets 'errno' and git then tests it, but in Debug and Release CRT those 'errno' are different memory locations. This patch addresses 3 connected bugs: 1) Typo in '\(Configuration)'. As a result, Debug configuration condition is always false and Release path is taken instead. 2) Regexp that replaced 'zlib.lib' with 'zlibd.lib' was only affecting the first occurrence. However, some projects have it listed twice. Previously this bug was hidden, because Debug path was never taken. I decided that avoiding double -lz in makefile is fragile and I'd better replace all occurrences instead. 3) In Debug, 'libcurl-d.lib' should be used instead of 'libcurl.lib'. Previously this bug was hidden, because Debug path was never taken.

2019-09-12completion: teach archive to use __gitcomp_builtinDenton Liu
Currently, _git_archive() uses a hardcoded list of options for its completion. However, we can use __gitcomp_builtin() to get a dynamically generated list of completions instead. Teach _git_archive() to use __gitcomp_builtin() so that newly implemented options in archive will be automatically completed without any mucking around in git-completion.bash. While we're at it, teach it to complete the missing `--worktree-attributes` option as well. Unfortunately, since some args are passed through from cmd_archive() to write_archive() (which calls parse_archive_args()), there's no way that a `--git-completion-helper` arg can end up reaching parse_archive_args() since the first call to parse_options() will end up calling exit(0). As a result, we have to carry the options supported by write_archive() in the hardcoded string. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-09-05Recommend git-filter-repo instead of git-filter-branchElijah Newren
filter-branch suffers from a deluge of disguised dangers that disfigure history rewrites (i.e. deviate from the deliberate changes). Many of these problems are unobtrusive and can easily go undiscovered until the new repository is in use. This can result in problems ranging from an even messier history than what led folks to filter-branch in the first place, to data loss or corruption. These issues cannot be backward compatibly fixed, so add a warning to both filter-branch and its manpage recommending that another tool (such as filter-repo) be used instead. Also, update other manpages that referenced filter-branch. Several of these needed updates even if we could continue recommending filter-branch, either due to implying that something was unique to filter-branch when it applied more generally to all history rewriting tools (e.g. BFG, reposurgeon, fast-import, filter-repo), or because something about filter-branch was used as an example despite other more commonly known examples now existing. Reword these sections to fix these issues and to avoid recommending filter-branch. Finally, remove the section explaining BFG Repo Cleaner as an alternative to filter-branch. I feel somewhat bad about this, especially since I feel like I learned so much from BFG that I put to good use in filter-repo (which is much more than I can say for filter-branch), but keeping that section presented a few problems: * In order to recommend that people quit using filter-branch, we need to provide them a recomendation for something else to use that can handle all the same types of rewrites. To my knowledge, filter-repo is the only such tool. So it needs to be mentioned. * I don't want to give conflicting recommendations to users * If we recommend two tools, we shouldn't expect users to learn both and pick which one to use; we should explain which problems one can solve that the other can't or when one is much faster than the other. * BFG and filter-repo have similar performance * All filtering types that BFG can do, filter-repo can also do. In fact, filter-repo comes with a reimplementation of BFG named bfg-ish which provides the same user-interface as BFG but with several bugfixes and new features that are hard to implement in BFG due to its technical underpinnings. While I could still mention both tools, it seems like I would need to provide some kind of comparison and I would ultimately just say that filter-repo can do everything BFG can, so ultimately it seems that it is just better to remove that section altogether.

2019-08-28rebase: teach rebase --keep-baseDenton Liu
A common scenario is if a user is working on a topic branch and they wish to make some changes to intermediate commits or autosquash, they would run something such as git rebase -i --onto master... master in order to preserve the merge base. This is useful when contributing a patch series to the Git mailing list, one often starts on top of the current 'master'. While developing the patches, 'master' is also developed further and it is sometimes not the best idea to keep rebasing on top of 'master', but to keep the base commit as-is. In addition to this, a user wishing to test individual commits in a topic branch without changing anything may run git rebase -x ./test.sh master... master Since rebasing onto the merge base of the branch and the upstream is such a common case, introduce the --keep-base option as a shortcut. This allows us to rewrite the above as git rebase -i --keep-base master and git rebase -x ./test.sh --keep-base master respectively. Add tests to ensure --keep-base works correctly in the normal case and fails when there are multiple merge bases, both in regular and interactive mode. Also, test to make sure conflicting options cause rebase to fail. While we're adding test cases, add a missing set_fake_editor call to 'rebase -i --onto master...side'. While we're documenting the --keep-base option, change an instance of "merge-base" to "merge base", which is the consistent spelling.

2019-08-13completion: complete config variables and values for 'git clone --config='SZEDER Gábor
Completing configuration sections and variable names for the stuck argument of 'git clone --config=<TAB>' requires a bit of extra care compared to doing the same for the unstuck argument of 'git clone --config <TAB>', because we have to deal with that '--config=' being part of the current word to be completed. Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name_and_value() and in turn to the __git_complete_config_variable_name() helper functions to specify the current section/variable name to be completed, so they can be used even when completing the stuck argument of '--config='. __git_complete_config_variable_value() already has such an option, and thus no further changes were necessary to complete possible values after 'git clone --config=section.name=<TAB>'.

'git config' expects a configuration variable's name and value in separate arguments, so we let the __gitcomp() helper append a space character to each variable name by default, like we do for most other things (--options, refs, paths, etc.). 'git -c', however, expects them in a single option joined by a '=' character, i.e. 'section.name=value', so we should append a '=' character to each fully completed variable name, but no space, so the user can continue typing the value right away. Add an option to the __git_complete_config_variable_name() function to allow callers to specify an alternate suffix to add, and use it to append that '=' character to configuration variables.

Split these out into two separate helper functions, so in the next patches we can use them to implement completion for 'git -c <TAB>'.

2019-08-13completion: simplify inner 'case' pattern in __gitcomp()SZEDER Gábor
The second '*' in the '--*=*' pattern of the inner 'case' statement of the __gitcomp() helper function never matches anything, so let's use '--*=' instead. The purpose of that inner case statement is to decide when to append a trailing space to the listed options and when not. When an option requires a stuck argument, i.e. '--option=', then the trailing space should not be added, so the user can continue typing the required argument right away. That '--*=*' pattern is supposed to match these options, but for this purpose that second '*' is unnecessary, a '--*=' pattern works just as well. That second '*' would only make a difference in case of a possible completion word like '--option=value', but our completion script never passes such a word to __gitcomp(), because the '--option=' and its 'value' must be completed separately.

2019-08-13completion: use 'sort -u' to deduplicate config variable namesSZEDER Gábor
The completion script runs the classic '| sort | uniq' pipeline to deduplicate the output of 'git help --config-for-completion'. 'sort -u' does the same, but uses one less external process and pipeline stage. Not a bit win, as it's only run once as the list of supported configuration variables is initialized, but at least it sets a better example for others to follow.
