2025-02-18diff: don't crash with empty argument to -G or -Sbrian m. carlson2-0/+20
The pickaxe options, -G and -S, need either a regex or a string to look through the history for. An empty value isn't very useful since it would either match everything or nothing, and what's worse, we presently crash with a BUG like so when the user provides one: BUG: diffcore-pickaxe.c:241: should have needle under -G or -S Since it's not very nice of us to crash and this wouldn't do anything useful anyway, let's simply inform the user that they must provide a non-empty argument and exit with an error if they provide an empty one instead.

2025-02-18merge-tree: only use basic merge configPhillip Wood1-1/+1
Commit 9c93ba4d0ae (merge-recursive: honor diff.algorithm, 2024-07-13) replaced init_merge_options() with init_basic_merge_config() for use in plumbing commands and init_ui_merge_config() for use in porcelain commands. As "git merge-tree" is a plumbing command it should call init_basic_merge_config() rather than init_ui_merge_config(). The merge ort machinery ignores "diff.algorithm" so the behavior is unchanged by this commit but it future proofs us against any future changes to init_ui_merge_config().

2025-02-18merge-tree: remove redundant codePhillip Wood1-5/+2
real_merge() only ever returns "0" or "1" as it dies if the merge status is less than zero. Therefore the check for "result < 0" is redundant and the result variable is not needed. The return value of real_merge() is ignored because exit status of "git merge-tree --stdin" is "0" for both successful and conflicted merges (the status of each merge is written to stdout). The return type of real_merge() is not changed as it is used for the program's exit status when "--stdin" is not given.

2025-02-18merge-tree --stdin: flush stdout to avoid deadlockPhillip Wood1-0/+2
If a process tries to read the output from "git merge-tree --stdin" before it closes merge-tree's stdin then it deadlocks. This happens because merge-tree does not flush its output before trying to read another line of input and means that it is not possible to cherry-pick a sequence of commits using "git merge-tree --stdin". Fix this by calling maybe_flush_or_die() before trying to read the next line of input. Flushing the output after each merge does not seem to affect the performance, any difference is lost in the noise even after increasing the number of runs. $ git rev-list --merges --parents -n100 origin/master | sed 's/^[^ ]* //' >/tmp/merges $ hyperfine -L flush 0,1 --warmup 1 --runs 30 \ 'GIT_FLUSH={flush} ./git merge-tree --stdin </tmp/merges' Benchmark 1: GIT_FLUSH=0 ./git merge-tree --stdin </tmp/merges Time (mean ± σ): 546.6 ms ± 11.7 ms [User: 503.2 ms, System: 40.9 ms] Range (min … max): 535.9 ms … 567.7 ms 30 runs Benchmark 2: GIT_FLUSH=1 ./git merge-tree --stdin </tmp/merges Time (mean ± σ): 546.9 ms ± 12.0 ms [User: 505.9 ms, System: 38.9 ms] Range (min … max): 529.8 ms … 570.0 ms 30 runs Summary 'GIT_FLUSH=0 ./git merge-tree --stdin </tmp/merges' ran 1.00 ± 0.03 times faster than 'GIT_FLUSH=1 ./git merge-tree --stdin </tmp/merges' Signed-off-by: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk> Acked-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Currently, the "test capability advertisement" test creates some files with expected content which are used by other tests below it.

2025-02-18version: refactor redact_non_printables()Usman Akinyemi1-6/+15
The git_user_agent_sanitized() function performs some sanitizing to avoid special characters being sent over the line and possibly messing up with the protocol or with the parsing on the other side. Let's extract this sanitizing into a new redact_non_printables() function, as we will want to reuse it in a following patch. For now the new redact_non_printables() function is still static as it's only needed locally. While at it, let's use strbuf_detach() to explicitly detach the string contained by the 'buf' strbuf.

2025-02-18Makefile: set default goals in makefilesAdam Dinwoodie15-11/+46
Explicitly set the default goal at the very top of various makefiles. This is already present in some makefiles, but not all of them. In particular, this corrects a regression introduced in a38edab7c8 (Makefile: generate doc versions via GIT-VERSION-GEN, 2024-12-06). That commit added some config files as build targets for the Documentation directory, and put the target configuration in a sensible place. Unfortunately, that sensible place was above any other build target definitions, meaning the default goal changed to being those configuration files only, rather than the HTML and man page documentation.

Back in 728b9ac0c3 (Makefile(s): avoid recipe prefix in conditional statements, 2024-04-08), we prepared our Makefiles for a forthcoming change in upstream Make that would ban the recipe prefix within a conditional statement by replacing tabs (the prefix) with eight spaces. In b9d6f64393 (compat/zlib: allow use of zlib-ng as backend, 2025-01-28), a handful of recipe prefix characters were introduced in a conditional statement ('ifdef ZLIB_NG'), causing 'make' to fail on my system, which uses GNU Make 4.4.90. Remove the recipe prefix characters by replacing them with the same script as is mentioned in 728b9ac0c3.

2025-02-11doc: clarify the intent of the renormalize option in the merge machineryElijah Newren3-4/+5
The -X renormalize (or merge.renormalize config) option is intended to reduce conflicts due to normalization of newer versions of history. It does so by renormalizing files that it is about to do a three-way content merge on. Some folks thought it would renormalize all files throughout the tree, and the previous wording wasn't clear enough to dispell that misconception. Update the docs to make it clear that the merge machinery will only apply renormalization to files which need a three-way content merge. (Technically, the merge machinery also does renormalization on modify/delete conflicts, in order to see if the modification was merely a normalization; if so, it can accept the delete and not report a conflict. But it's not clear that this piece needs to be explained to users, and trying to distinguish it might feel like splitting hairs and overcomplicating the explanation, so we leave it out.)

2025-02-11doc: centrally document various ways tospell `true` and `false`Junio C Hamano3-7/+10
We do not seem to centrally document exhaustively ways to spell Boolean values. The description in the Environment Variables of git(1) section assumes that the reader is already familiar with how "Boolean valued configuration variables" are specified, without referring to anything, so there is no way for the readers to find out more. The description of `bool` in the section on "--type <type>" in "git config --help" might be the place to do so, but it is not telling us all that much. The description of Boolean valued placeholders in the pretty formats section of "git log --help" enumerates the possible values with "etc." implying there may be other synonyms; shrink the list of samples and instead refer to the canonical and authoritative source of truth, which now is git-config(1).

2025-02-11rebase -i: reword empty commit after fast-forwardPhillip Wood3-3/+43
When rebase rewords a commit it picks the commit and then runs "git commit --amend" to reword it. When the commit is picked the sequencer tries to reuse existing commits by fast-forwarding if the parents are unchanged. Rewording an empty commit that has been fast-forwarded fails because "git commit --amend" is called without "--allow-empty". This happens because when a commit is fast-forwarded the logic that checks whether we should pass "--allow-empty" is skipped. Fix this by always passing "--allow-empty" when rewording a commit. This is safe because we are amending a commit that has already been picked so if it had become empty when it was picked we'd have already returned an error. As "git commit" will happily create empty merge commits without "--allow-empty" we do not need to pass that flag when rewording merge commits.

Remove the_repository global variable in favor of the repository argument that gets passed in "builtin/update-server-info.c". When `-h` is passed to the command outside a Git repository, the `run_builtin()` will call the `cmd_update_server_info()` function with `repo` set to NULL and then early in the function, "parse_options()" call will give the options help and exit, without having to consult much of the configuration file. So it is safe to omit reading the config when `repo` argument the caller gave us is NULL.
