but we just do not _reword_ for the sake of rewording.  If somebody does
not like it, s/he is complaining too late.  S/he should have been here in
early May 2005 and make the language used by the API closer to what humans
read.  S/he wasn't here.  Too bad, and it is too late.

And people who complain should look at a bigger picture.  Look at what was
suggested by one of them and think for five seconds:

     $ git checkout mytopic
    -fatal: Entry 'frotz' not uptodate. Cannot merge.
    +fatal: Entry 'frotz' has local changes. Cannot merge.

If you do not see something wrong with this output, your brain has already
been rotten with use of git for too long a time.  Nobody asked us to
"merge" but why are we talking about "Cannot merge"?

This patch introduces a mechanism to allow Porcelains to specify messages
that are different from the ones that is given by the underlying plumbing
implementation of read-tree, so that we can reword the message Porcelains give
without disrupting the output from the plumbing.

cvsexportcommit: introduce -W for shared working trees (between Git and CVS)

calling "git cvsimport".  However, interacting with the CVS repository
using "git cvsexportcommit" was cumbersome, since that script assumes
separate working directories for Git and CVS.

Now, you can call cvsexportcommit with the -W option.  This will
automatically discover the GIT_DIR, and it will check out the parent
commit before exporting the commit.

The intended workflow is this:

$ CVSROOT=$URL cvs co module
$ cd module
$ git cvsimport

Ignore dirty submodule states during rebase and stash

When rebasing or stashing, chances are that you do not care about
dirty submodules, since they are not updated by those actions anyway.
So ignore the submodules' states.

Note: the submodule states -- as committed in the superproject --
will still be stashed and rebased, it is _just_ the state of the
submodule in the working tree which is ignored.

Why?  Sometimes it is not interesting when a submodule changed.

For example, when reordering some commits in the superproject, a dirty
submodule is usually totally uninteresting.  So we will use this option

cvsexportcommit: chomp only removes trailing whitespace

In commit fef3a7cc(cvsexportcommit: be graceful when "cvs status"
reorders the arguments), caution was taken to get the status even
for files with leading or trailing whitespace.

However, the author of that commit missed that chomp() removes only
trailing newlines.  With help of the mailing list, the author realized
his mistake and provided this patch.

The idea is that we do not want to rely on a certain layout of the
output of "cvs status".  Therefore we only call it with files that are
unambiguous after stripping leading and trailing whitespace.

16 years agolet pack-objects do the writing of unreachable objects as loose objects
Nicolas Pitre [Wed, 14 May 2008 05:33:53 +0000 (01:33 -0400)] 
let pack-objects do the writing of unreachable objects as loose objects

Commit ccc1297226b184c40459e9d373cc9eebfb7bd898 changed the behavior
of 'git repack -A' so unreachable objects are stored as loose objects.
However it did so in a naive and inn efficient way by making packs
about to be deleted inaccessible and feeding their content through
'git unpack-objects'.  While this works, there are major flaws with
this approach:

- It is unacceptably sloooooooooooooow.

  In the Linux kernel repository with no actual unreachable objects,
  doing 'git repack -A -d' before:

real    2m33.220s
user    2m21.675s
sys     0m3.510s

  And with this change:

real    0m36.849s
user    0m24.365s
sys     0m1.950s

  For reference, here's the timing for 'git repack -a -d':

real    0m35.816s
user    0m22.571s
sys     0m2.011s

  This is explained by the fact that 'git unpack-objects' was used to
  unpack _every_ objects even if (almost) 100% of them were thrown away.

- There is a black out period.

  Between the removal of the .idx file for the redundant pack and the
  completion of its unpacking, the unreachable objects become completely
  unaccessible.  This is not a big issue as we're talking about unreachable
  objects, but some consistency is always good.

- There is no way to easily set a sensible mtime for the newly created
  unreachable loose objects.

So, while having a command called "pack-objects" to perform object
unpacking looks really odd, this is probably the best compromize to be
able to solve the above issues in an efficient way.

filter-branch: fix variable export logic

filter-branch tries to restore "old" copies of some
environment variables by using the construct:

  unset var
  test -z "$old_var" || var="$old_var" && export var

This is just wrong.  AND-list and OR-list operators && and || have equal
precedence and they bind left to right.  The second term, var="$old"
assignment always succeeds, so we always end up exporting var.

On bash and dash, exporting an unset variable has no effect. However, on
some shells (such as FreeBSD's /bin/sh), the shell exports the empty
value.

This manifested itself in this case as git-filter-branch setting
GIT_INDEX_FILE to the empty string, which in turn caused its call to
git-read-tree to fail, leaving the working tree pointing at the original
HEAD instead of the rewritten one.

To fix this, we change the short-circuit logic to better match the intent:

  test -z "$old_var" || {
    var="$old_var" && export var
  }
