With the patch we're discussing, signatures are part of history, hence
can't be modified after the fact without rewritting them.

*But*, by design, unless sha1 itself is compromized (in which case Git
would need to change to another hash function, that would be no fun),
signing the tip of every branch is sufficient to sign the whole history.

So, your old signatures would remain there, and your new signature, for
new commits, would be added on top.

I'm wondering how this feature would fit in a typical flow, indeed.
Usually, I hack for a while, and when I'm happy enough, I push. But I
don't take the decision of what to push at commit time, so if the idea
is to sign only a few commits (i.e. the ones you push), then you should
decide this at commit time ("hmm, I should commit --gpg-sign this time
because I'm going to push this one").

If the idea is to sign every commit, then there should be a config
option so that we don't have to type it every time.

The impression I got from the discussion was quite different, which was

Just above this, warning() is used to at least print a message to
stderr if vsnprintf() fails.  It could be used here, and below when
realloc fails.

It's wrong to write out CHERRY_PICK_HEAD if we couldn't start the
merge, but using cherry-pick with a strategy other than recursive
seems broken in that case in other ways as well:

$ git cherry-pick --strategy=resolve side
error: Untracked working tree file 'bar' would be overwritten by merge.
error: could not apply a77535c9ac... bar
hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths
hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
hint: and commit the result with 'git commit'

The "hint" advice is completely wrong.

I have understood that this was not completely fixing all 
slash/backslash issues (is it even possible?) but in no way there was 
regressions pointed out. At least a specific error *was* fixed. But I 
may have missed something, in that case sorry.

For that matter, I don't see how to distinguish "the merge did not
even start" from "the merge had conflicts" when using
try_merge_command(). In the former case we do NOT want
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD left behind (nor to print the wrong advice above),
while in the latter case we do.

Thanks. It is clear from the subject and the patch text that you are
changing "hit return to unconditionally launch" into "launch it if you
want to", but can you give justification why a choice not to launch is

* [PATCH v2] revert.c: defer writing CHERRY_PICK_HEAD till it is safe to do so
From: Jay Soffian @ 2011-10-06 17:48 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git, Junio C Hamano; +Cc: Jay Soffian, nicolas.dichtel, Jeff King

do_pick_commit() writes out CHERRY_PICK_HEAD before invoking merge (either
via do_recursive_merge() or try_merge_command()) on the assumption that if
the merge fails it is due to conflict. However, if the tree is dirty, the
merge may not even start, aborting before do_pick_commit() can remove
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD.

Instead, defer writing CHERRY_PICK_HEAD till after merge has returned.
At this point we know the merge has either succeeded or failed due
to conflict. In either case, we want CHERRY_PICK_HEAD to be written
so that it may be picked up by the subsequent invocation of commit.

Note that do_recursive_merge() aborts if the merge cannot start, while
try_merge_command() returns a non-zero value other than 1.

From: Erik Faye-Lund @ 2011-10-06 17:52 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git; +Cc: drafnel, j.sixt, gitster

strbuf can call die, which again can call syslog from git-daemon.

Endless recursion is no fun; fix it by hand-rolling the logic. As
a side-effect malloc/realloc errors are changed into non-fatal
warnings; this is probably an improvement anyway.

* Prompt for merge message?
From: Todd A. Jacobs @ 2011-10-06 17:49 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git

I often find myself using "--no-ff -m foo" for merging short-lived
branches, because the merge commit usually needs to say something
about having finished a feature rather than referring to a branch that
will be deleted shortly anyway. However, it's a little annoying to
have to always write the commit message on the command-line,
especially in cases where a more expository multi-line message would
be useful.

Is there currently a way to get git to prompt for the merge message,
rather than using the default or requiring the -m flag? If not, isn't
this a common-enough use case to have that ability added to the merge
function?

This is useful if you forgot to restrict the diff to the paths you want

* [PATCH v3 0/5] reroll bc/attr-ignore-case
From: Brandon Casey @ 2011-10-06 18:22 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: gitster; +Cc: git, peff, j.sixt

This re-rolls the whole series so that it can replace your current
bc/attr-ignore-case.  It includes the two v2 patches I submitted last
night and backs out the use of xmalloc in compat/win32/syslog.c that
Johannes Sixt pointed out as a recursion issue.  Erik Faye-Lunde has a
patch to remove the existing calls to x-wrapper functions in the function.

Built on top of 5738c9c21e53356ab5020912116e7f82fd2d428f, the same base
as your current bc/attr-ignore-case.

From: Brandon Casey <drafnel@gmail.com>

The "x"-prefixed versions of strdup, malloc, etc. will check whether the
allocation was successful and terminate the process otherwise.

A few uses of malloc were left alone since they already implemented a
graceful path of failure or were in a quasi external library like xdiff.

Additionally, the call to malloc in compat/win32/syslog.c was not modified
since the syslog() implemented there is a die handler and a call to the
x-wrappers within a die handler could result in recursion should memory
allocation fail.  This will have to be addressed separately.

* [PATCH v3 1/5] attr.c: avoid inappropriate access to strbuf "buf" member

From: Brandon Casey <drafnel@gmail.com>

This code sequence performs a strcpy into the buf member of a strbuf
struct.  The strcpy may move the position of the terminating nul of the
string and effectively change the length of string so that it does not
match the len member of the strbuf struct.

Currently, this sequence works since the strbuf was given a hint when it
was initialized to allocate enough space to accomodate the string that will
be strcpy'ed, but this is an implementation detail of strbufs, not a
guarantee.

So, lets rework this sequence so that the strbuf is only manipulated by
strbuf functions, and direct modification of its "buf" member is not
necessary.

* [PATCH v3 5/5] attr.c: respect core.ignorecase when matching attribute patterns
From: Brandon Casey @ 2011-10-06 18:22 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: gitster; +Cc: git, peff, j.sixt, Brandon Casey
In-Reply-To: <VYN8m1JCy102-eaWWa-bsunEvt3zeXLJkVg7FZKZCtXT-Ww0vg7a8xA7NTvrZTiovKTnJ9Hlom0@cipher.nrlssc.navy.mil>

From: Brandon Casey <drafnel@gmail.com>

When core.ignorecase is true, the file globs configured in the
.gitattributes file should be matched case-insensitively against the paths
in the working directory.  Let's do so.

Plus, add some tests.

The last set of tests is performed only on a case-insensitive filesystem.
Those tests make sure that git handles the case where the .gitignore file
resides in a subdirectory and the user supplies a path that does not match
the case in the filesystem.  In that case^H^H^H^Hsituation, part of the
path supplied by the user is effectively interpreted case-insensitively,
and part of it is dependent on the setting of core.ignorecase.  git should
only match the portion of the path below the directory holding the
.gitignore file according to the setting of core.ignorecase.

This is also partly future-proofing.  Currently, git builds the attr stack
based on the path supplied by the user, so we don't have to do anything
special (like use strcmp_icase) to handle the parts of that path that don't
match the filesystem with respect to case.  If git instead built the attr
stack by scanning the repository, then the paths in the origin field would
not necessarily match the paths supplied by the user.  If someone makes a
change like that in the future, these tests will notice.

* [PATCH v3 4/5] attr: read core.attributesfile from git_default_core_config
From: Brandon Casey @ 2011-10-06 18:22 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: gitster; +Cc: git, peff, j.sixt, Brandon Casey
In-Reply-To: <VYN8m1JCy102-eaWWa-bsunEvt3zeXLJkVg7FZKZCtXT-Ww0vg7a8xA7NTvrZTiovKTnJ9Hlom0@cipher.nrlssc.navy.mil>

From: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This code calls git_config from a helper function to parse the config entry
it is interested in.  Calling git_config in this way may cause a problem if
the helper function can be called after a previous call to git_config by
another function since the second call to git_config may reset some
variable to the value in the config file which was previously overridden.

The above is not a problem in this case since the function passed to
git_config only parses one config entry and the variable it sets is not
assigned outside of the parsing function.  But a programmer who desires
all of the standard config options to be parsed may be tempted to modify
git_attr_config() so that it falls back to git_default_config() and then it
_would_ be vulnerable to the above described behavior.

So, move the call to git_config up into the top-level cmd_* function and
move the responsibility for parsing core.attributesfile into the main
config file parser.

Which is only the logical thing to do ;-)

"git merge --no-ff --no-commit branch_foo && git commit" ?

Though it would be handy to have a "stop and let me edit the merge
commit message" flag on git merge itself.

* [PATCH] merge-one-file: fix "expr: non-numeric argument"
From: Jay Soffian @ 2011-10-06 18:25 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: git; +Cc: Jay Soffian, Junio C Hamano

When invoking expr to compare two numbers, don't quote the
variables which are the output of 'wc -c'. On OS X, this output
includes spaces, which expr balks at:

  $ sz0=`wc -c </etc/passwd`
  $ sz1=`wc -c </etc/passwd`
  $ echo "'$sz0'"
  '    3667'

  $ expr "$sz0" \< "$sz1" \* 2
  expr: non-numeric argument

  $ expr $sz0 \< $sz1 \* 2
  1
