since 5e1f28d (bisect--helper: reimplement `bisect_visualize()` shell function in C, 2021-09-13) `git bisect visualize` uses exists_in_PATH() to check wether it should call `gitk`, but exists_in_PATH() relies on locate_in_PATH() which currently only understands POSIX-ish PATH variables (a list of paths, separated by colons) on native Windows executables we encounter Windows PATH variables (a list of paths that often contain drive letters (and thus colons), separated by semicolons). Luckily we do already have a function that can lookup executables on windows PATHs: path_lookup(). Implement a small replacement for the existing locate_in_PATH() based on path_lookup().

2023-08-03rebase --skip: fix commit message clean up when skipping squashPhillip Wood4-39/+93
During a series of "fixup" and/or "squash" commands, the interactive rebase accumulates a commit message from all the commits that are being squashed together. If one of the commits has conflicts when it is picked and the user chooses to skip that commit then we need to remove that commit's message from accumulated messages. To do this 15ef69314d5 (rebase --skip: clean up commit message after a failed fixup/squash, 2018-04-27) updated commit_staged_changes() to reset the accumulated message to the commit message of HEAD (which does not contain the message from the skipped commit) when the last command was "fixup" or "squash" and there are no staged changes. Unfortunately the code to do this contains two bugs. (1) If parse_head() fails we pass an invalid pointer to unuse_commit_buffer(). (2) The reconstructed message uses the entire commit buffer from HEAD including the headers, rather than just the commit message. The first issue is fixed by splitting up the "if" condition into several statements each with its own error handling. The second issue is fixed by finding the start of the commit message within the commit buffer using find_commit_subject(). The existing test added by 15ef69314d5 is modified to show the effect of this bug. The bug is triggered when skipping the first command in the chain (as the test does before this commit) but the effect is hidden because opts->current_fixup_count is set to zero which leads update_squash_messages() to recreate the squash message file from scratch overwriting the bad message created by commit_staged_changes(). The test is also updated to explicitly check the commit messages rather than relying on grep to ensure they do not contain any stray commit headers. To check the commit message the function test_commit_message() is moved from t3437-rebase-fixup-options.sh to test-lib.sh. As the function is now publicly available it is updated to provide better error detection and avoid overwriting the commonly used files "actual" and "expect". Support for reading the expected commit message from stdin is also added. Signed-off-by: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2023-08-02ident: don't consider '.' a crudbrian m. carlson3-4/+12
When we process a user's name (as in user.name), we strip all leading and trailing crud from it. Right now, we consider a dot a crud character, and strip it off. However, this is unsuitable for many personal names because humans frequently have abbreviated suffixes, such as "Jr." or "Sr." at the end of their names, and this corrupts them. Some other users may wish to use an abbreviated name or initial, which will pose a problem especially in cultures that write the family name first, followed by the personal name. Since the current approach causes lots of practical problems, let's avoid it by no longer considering a dot to be crud. Note that "." in the name forces the entire name to be quoted to please mailers, but stripping "." only at the beginning and the end does not help a name with "." in the middle (like "brian m. carlson") so this change will not make it much worse. A name like "Given Family, Jr." that did not have to be quoted now would need to be, in order to be placed on the e-mail headers, though.

2023-07-31checkout: allow "checkout -m path" to unmerge removed pathsJunio C Hamano7-82/+13
"git checkout -m -- path" uses the unmerge_marked_index() API, whose implementation is incapable of unresolving a path that was resolved as removed. Extend the unmerge_index() API function so that we can mark the ce_flags member of the cache entries we add to the index as unmerged, and replace use of unmerge_marked_index() with it. Now, together with its unmerge_index_entry_at() helper function, unmerge_marked_index() function is no longer called by anybody, and can safely be removed. This makes two known test failures in t2070 and t7201 to succeed. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2023-07-31checkout/restore: add basic tests for --mergeJunio C Hamano2-0/+106
Even though "checkout --merge -- paths" had some tests, we never made sure it worked to recreate the conflicted state _after_ the resolution was recorded in the index. Also "restore --merge" did not even have any tests. Currently these commands use the unmerge_marked_index() interface that cannot handle paths that have been resolved as removal, and tests for that case are marked with test_expect_failure; these should eventually be fixed, but not in this patch.

2023-07-31checkout/restore: refuse unmerging paths unless checking out of the indexJunio C Hamano5-5/+29
Recreating unmerged index entries using resolve-undo data, recreating conflicted working tree files using unmerged index entries, and writing data out of unmerged index entries, make sense only when we are checking paths out of the index and not when we are checking paths out of a tree-ish. Add an extra check to make sure "--merge" and "--ours/--theirs" options are rejected when checking out from a tree-ish, update the document (especially the SYNOPSIS section) to highlight that they are incompatible, and add a few tests to make sure the combination fails.

2023-07-31update-index: remove stale fallback code for "--unresolve"Junio C Hamano1-101/+11
The "update-index --unresolve" is a relatively old feature that was introduced in Git v1.4.1 (June 2006), which predates the resolve-undo extension introduced in Git v1.7.0 (February 2010). The original code that was limited only to work during a merge (and not during a rebase or a cherry-pick) has been kept as the fallback codepath to be used as a transition measure. By now, for more than 10 years we have stored resolve-undo extension in the index file, and the fallback code way outlived its usefulness. Remove it, together with two file-scope static global variables. One of these variables is still used by surviving function, but it does not have to be a global at all, so move it to local to that function. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2023-07-31update-index: use unmerge_index_entry() to support removalJunio C Hamano2-20/+55
"update-index --unresolve" uses the unmerge_index_entry_at() that assumes that the path to be unresolved must be in the index, which makes it impossible to unresolve a path that was resolved as removal. Rewrite unresolve_one() to use the unmerge_index_entry() to support unresolving such a path. Existing tests for "update-index --unresolve" forgot to check one thing that tests for "checkout --merge -- paths" tested, which is to make sure that resolve-undo record that has already been used to recreate higher-stage index entries is removed. Add new invocations of "ls-files --resolve-undo" after running "update-index --unresolve" to make sure that unresolving with update-index does remove the used resolve-undo records.

2023-07-31resolve-undo: allow resurrecting conflicted state that resolved to deletionJunio C Hamano2-5/+44
The resolve-undo index extension records up to three (mode, object name) tuples for non-zero stages for each path that was resolved, to be used to recreate the original conflicted state later when the user requests. The unmerge_index_entry_at() function uses the resolve-undo data to do so, but it assumes that the path for which the conflicted state needs to be recreated can be specified by the position in the active_cache[] array. This obviously cannot salvage the state of conflicted paths that were resolved by removing them. For example, a delete-modify conflict, in which the change whose "modify" side made is a trivial typofix, may legitimately be resolved to remove the path, and resolve-undo extension does record the two (mode, object name) tuples for the common ancestor version and their version, lacking our version. But after recording such a removal of the path, you should be able to use resolve-undo data to recreate the conflicted state. Introduce a new unmerge_index_entry() helper function that takes the path (which does not necessarily have to exist in the active_cache[] array) and resolve-undo data, and use it to reimplement unmerge_index() public function that is used by "git rerere". The limited interface is still kept for now, as it is used by "git checkout -m" and "git update-index --unmerge", but these two codepaths will be updated to lift the assumption to allow conflicts that resolved to deletion can be recreated.

2023-07-31update-index: do not read HEAD and MERGE_HEAD unconditionallyJunio C Hamano2-18/+36
When "update-index --unresolve $path" cannot find the resolve-undo record for the path the user requested to unresolve, it stuffs the blobs from HEAD and MERGE_HEAD to stage #2 and stage #3 as a fallback. For this reason, the operation does not even start unless both "HEAD" and "MERGE_HEAD" exist. This is suboptimal in a few ways: * It does not recreate stage #1. Even though it is a correct design decision not to do so (because it is impossible to recreate in general cases, without knowing how we got there, including what merge strategy was used), it is much less useful not to have that information in the index. * It limits the "unresolve" operation only during a conflicted "git merge" and nothing else. Other operations like "rebase", "cherry-pick", and "switch -m" may result in conflicts, and the user may want to unresolve the conflict that they incorrectly resolved in order to redo the resolution, but the fallback would not kick in. * Most importantly, the entire "unresolve" operation is disabled after a conflicted merge is committed and MERGE_HEAD is removed, even though the index has perfectly usable resolve-undo records. By lazily reading the HEAD and MERGE_HEAD only when we need to go to the fallback codepath, we will allow cases where resolve-undo records are available (which is 100% of the time, unless the user is reading from an index file created by Git more than 10 years ago) to proceed even after a conflicted merge was committed, during other mergy operations that do not use MERGE_HEAD, or after the result of such mergy operations has been committed.
