In a topic branch workflow, you often want to find the latest commit that
merged a side branch that touched a particular area of the system, so that
a new topic branch to work on that area can be forked from that commit.
For example, I wanted to find an appropriate fork-point to queue Luke's
changes related to git-p4 in contrib/fast-import/.
"git log --first-parent" traverses the first-parent chain, and "-m --stat"
shows the list of paths touched by commits including merge commits. We
could ask the question this way:
# What is the latest commit that touched that path?
$ git log --first-parent --oneline -m --stat master |
sed -e '/^ contrib\/fast-import\/git-p4 /q' | tail
The above finds that 8cbfc11 (Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates',
2012-01-06) was such a commit.
But a more natural way to spell this question is this:
$ git log --first-parent --oneline -m --stat -1 master -- \
contrib/fast-import/git-p4
Unfortunately, this does not work. It finds ecb7cf9 (git-p4: rewrite view
handling, 2012-01-02). This commit is a part of the merged topic branch
and is _not_ on the first-parent path from the 'master':
$ git show-branch 8cbfc11ecb7cf9
! [8cbfc11] Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates'
! [ecb7cf9] git-p4: rewrite view handling
--
- [8cbfc11] Merge branch 'pw/p4-view-updates'
+ [8cbfc11^2] git-p4: view spec documentation
++ [ecb7cf9] git-p4: rewrite view handling
The problem is caused by the merge simplification logic when it inspects
the merge commit 8cbfc11. In this case, the history leading to the tip of
'master' did not touch git-p4 since 'pw/p4-view-updates' topic forked, and
the result of the merge is simply a copy from the tip of the topic branch
in the view limited by the given pathspec. The merge simplification logic
discards the history on the mainline side of the merge, and pretends as if
the sole parent of the merge is its second parent, i.e. the tip of the
topic. While this simplification is correct in the general case, it is at
least surprising if not outright wrong when the user explicitly asked to
show the first-parent history.
Here is an attempt to fix this issue, by not allowing us to compare the
merge result with anything but the first parent when --first-parent is in
effect, to avoid the history traversal veering off to the side branch.

The pathspec structure has a few bits of data to drive various operation
modes after we unified the pathspec matching logic in various codepaths.
For example, max_depth field is there so that "git grep" can limit the
output for files found in limited depth of tree traversal. Also in order
to show just the surface level differences in "git diff-tree", recursive
field stops us from descending into deeper level of the tree structure
when it is set to false, and this also affects pathspec matching when
we have wildcards in the pathspec.
The diff-index has always wanted the recursive behaviour, and wanted to
match pathspecs without any depth limit. But we forgot to do so when we
updated tree_entry_interesting() logic to unify the pathspec matching
logic.

Since 781f76b15 (test-lib: redirect stdin of tests) you can't simply put a
"bash &&" into a test for debugging purposes anymore. Instead you'll have
to use "bash <&6 >&3 2>&4".
As that invocation is not that easy to remember add the test_pause
convenience function. It invokes "$SHELL_PATH" to provide a sane shell
for the user.
This function also checks if the -v flag is given and will error out if
that is not the case instead of letting the test hang until ^D is pressed.

The credential-cache helper will try to connect to its
daemon over a unix socket. Originally, a failure to do so
was silently ignored, and we would either give up (if
performing a "get" or "erase" operation), or spawn a new
daemon (for a "store" operation).
But since 8ec6c8d, we try to report more errors. We detect a
missing daemon by checking for ENOENT on our connection
attempt. If the daemon is missing, we continue as before
(giving up or spawning a new daemon). For any other error,
we die and report the problem.
However, checking for ENOENT is not sufficient for a missing
daemon. We might also get ECONNREFUSED if a dead daemon
process left a stale socket. This generally shouldn't
happen, as the daemon cleans up after itself, but the daemon
may not always be given a chance to do so (e.g., power loss,
"kill -9").
The resulting state is annoying not just because the helper
outputs an extra useless message, but because it actually
blocks the helper from spawning a new daemon to replace the
stale socket.
Fix it by checking for ECONNREFUSED.

The logic for the -b mode, where [PATCH] is dropped but [foo] is not,
silently ate all spaces after the ].
Fix this by keeping the next isspace() character, if there is any.
Being more thorough is pointless, as the later cleanup_space() call
will normalize any sequence of whitespace to a single ' '.

git-am could pass -k to mailinfo, but not -b. Introduce an option
that does so. We change the meaning of the 'keep' state file, but are
careful not to cause a problem unless you downgrade in the middle of
an 'am' run.
This uncovers a bug in mailinfo -b, hence the failing test.

Revese the order of delta applying so that by the time a delta is
applied, its base is either non-delta or already inflated.
get_base_data() is still recursive, but because base's data is always
ready, the inner get_base_data() call never has any chance to call
itself again.

Current find_unresolved_deltas() links all bases together in a form of
tree, using struct base_data, with prev_base pointer to point to
parent node. Then it traverses down from parent to children in
recursive manner with all base_data allocated on stack.
To eliminate recursion, we simply need to put all on heap
(parse_pack_objects and fix_unresolved_deltas). After that, it's
simple non-recursive depth-first traversal loop. Each node also
maintains its own state (ofs and ref indices) to iterate over all
children nodes.
So we process one node:
- if it returns a new (child) node (a parent base), we link it to our
tree, then process the new node.
- if it returns nothing, the node is done, free it. We go back to
parent node and resume whatever it's doing.
and do it until we have no nodes to process.

Recursion in a DAG is generally a bad idea because it could be very
deep. Be defensive and avoid recursion in mark_parents_uninteresting()
and clear_commit_marks().
mark_parents_uninteresting() learns a trick from clear_commit_marks()
to avoid malloc() in (dominant) single-parent case.

Two "^" characters were incorrectly being interpreted as markup for
superscripting. Fix them by writing them as attribute references
"{caret}".
Although a single "^" character in a paragraph cannot be
misinterpreted in this way, also write other "^" characters as
"{caret}" in the interest of good hygiene (unless they are in literal
paragraphs, of course, in which context attribute references are not
recognized).
Spell "{}" consistently, namely *not* quoted as "\{\}". Since the
braces are empty, they cannot be interpreted as an attribute
reference, and either spelling is OK. So arbitrarily choose one
variation and use it consistently.
