Use "Gitk" instead of the placeholder "PACKAGE" in the header of the
generated po/gitk.pot file. In particular, the "Project-Id-Version"
field in the header entry should be set to:
"Project-Id-Version: Gitk\n"
New PO files generated from this POT file will inherit that package

Back when b4833a2c (rerere: Fix use of an empty strbuf.buf,
2007-09-26) was written, a freshly initialized empty strbuf
had NULL in its .buf member, with .len set to 0. The code this
patch touches in rerere.c was written to _fix_ the original code
that assumed that the .buf member is always pointing at a NUL-terminated
string, even for an empty string, which did not hold back then.
That changed in b315c5c0 (strbuf change: be sure ->buf is never ever
NULL., 2007-09-27), and it has again become safe to assume that .buf
is never NULL, and .buf[0] has '\0' for an empty string (i.e., a
strbuf with its .len member set to 0).
A funny thing is, this piece of code has been moved around from
builtin-rerere.c to rerere.c and also adjusted for updates to the
hash function API over the years, but nobody bothered to question
if this special casing for an empty strbuf was still necessary:
b4833a2c62 (rerere: Fix use of an empty strbuf.buf, 2007-09-26)

Every compilation unit in Git is expected to include "git-compat-util.h"
first, either directly or indirectly via "builtin.h". This header papers
over differences between platforms so that we can expect the typical
POSIX functions to exist. Furthermore, it provides functionality that we
end up using everywhere.
This header is thus quite heavy as a consequence. Preprocessing it as a
standalone unit via `clang -E git-compat-util.h` yields over 23,000
lines of code overall. Naturally, it takes quite some time to compile
all of this.
Luckily, this is exactly the kind of use case that precompiled headers
aim to solve: instead of recompiling it every single time, we compile it
once and then link the result into the executable. If include guards are
set up properly it means that the file won't need to be reprocessed.
Set up such a precompiled header for "git-compat-util.h" and wire it up
via Meson. This causes Meson to implicitly include the precompiled
header in all compilation units. With GCC and Clang for example this is
done via the "-include" statement [1].
This leads to a significant speedup when performing full builds:
Benchmark 1: ninja (rev = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 14.467 s ± 0.126 s [User: 248.133 s, System: 31.298 s]
Range (min … max): 14.195 s … 14.633 s 10 runs
Benchmark 2: ninja (rev = HEAD)

1.40 ± 0.02 times faster than ninja (rev = HEAD~)

In the next commit we're about to introduce a precompiled header for
"git-compat-util.h". The consequence of this change is that we'll
implicitly include that header for every compilation unit that uses the
precompiled headers.
This is okay for our "normal" library sources and our builtins. But some
of our compatibility sources do not include the header on purpose, and
doing so would cause compilation errors.
Prepare for this change by splitting out compatibility sources into
their static library. Like this, we can selectively enable precompiled
headers for the library sources.

The "git-compat-util.h" header is supposed to be the first header
included by every code compilation unit. As such, a subsequent commit
will start to precompile this header to speed up compilation of Git.
This will cause an issue though with the way that we have set up the
"-Wsign-compare" warnings. It is expected that any compilation unit that
fails with that compiler warning sets `DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS`
before including "git-compat-util.h". If so, we'll disable the warning
right away via a compiler pragma.
But with precompiled headers we do not know ahead of time whether the
code unit wants to disable those warnings, and thus we'll have to
precompile the header without defining `DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS`.
But as the pragma statement is wrapped by our include guards, the second
include of that file will not have the desired effect of disabling the
warnings anymore.
We could fix this issue by declaring a new macro that compilation units
are expected to invoke after having included the file. In retrospect,
that would have been the better way to handle this as it allows for
more flexibility: we could for example toggle the warning for specific
code blocks, only. But changing this now would require a bunch of
changes, and the churn feels excessive for what we gain.
Instead, prepare for the precompiled headers by moving the code outside
of the include guards.

According to its readme, the "contrib/" directory's main intent is to
collect stuff that is not an official part of Git, either because it is
too specialized or because it is still considered experimental. The
reality tells a bit of a different story though: while it _does_ contain
such things, it also contains other things:
- Our credential helpers, which are being distributed by many
packagers nowadays and which can be considered "stable".
- A bunch of tooling that relates to our build and test
infrastructure.
Especially the second category is somewhat of a sore spot. You really
wouldn't expect build-related tooling to be considered an optional part
of Git. Quite the opposite.
Create a new top-level "tools/" directory to fix this discrepancy. This
directory will contain all kind of tools that are related to our build
infrastructure and that Git developers are likely to use day to day.
For now, this directory doesn't contain anything yet except for a
readme and a Meson skeleton. This will change in subsequent commits.

The `--object-id` option was added in commit e1068f0ad4
(merge-file: add an option to process object IDs, 2023-11-01)
together with a call to setup_git_directory() to avoid crashing
when run outside a repository.
However, the call to setup_git_directory() is redundant when run inside
a repository, as merge-file runs with RUN_SETUP_GENTLY, so the
repository has already been set up. The redundant call is harmless
when linked worktrees are not used, but in a linked worktree,
the repo_set_gitdir() function ends up being called twice.
Calling repo_set_gitdir() used to be silently accepted, but commit
2816b748e5 (odb: handle changing a repository's commondir, 2025-11-19)
changed this to a BUG in repository.c with the error message:
"cannot reinitialize an already-initialized object directory".
Guard the redundant call to setup_git_directory() behind a repo pointer
check, to ensure that we continue to give the correct "not a git repo"
error whilst avoiding the BUG when running in a linked worktree.

A prio_queue with a NULL compare function acts as a stack -- the last
element in is the first one out (LIFO). Use an actual commit_stack
instead where possible, as it documents the behavior better, provides
type safety and saves some memory because prio_queue stores an
additional tie-breaking counter per element.

A new-style unified context diff represents an empty context line
with an empty line (instead of a line with a single SP on it). The
code to check whitespace errors in an incoming patch is designed to
omit the first byte of a line (typically SP, "-", or "+") and pass the
remainder of the line to the whitespace checker.
Usually we do not pass a context line to the whitespace error checker,
but when we are correcting errors, we do. This "remove the first
byte and send the remainder" strategy of checking a line ended up
sending a zero-length string to the whitespace checker when seeing a
new-style empty context line, which caused the whitespace checker to
say "ah, you do not even have a newline at the end!", leading to an
"incomplete line" in the middle of the patch!
Fix this by pretending that we got a traditional empty context line
when we drive the whitespace checker.

Functions parse_diff(), edit_hunk_manually() and patch_update_file() use
the_repository even though a repository instance is already available via
struct add_i_state s which is defined in struct add_p_state *s.
Use 's->s.r' instead of the_repository to avoid relying on global state. All
callers pass a valid add_p_state and this does not change any behavior.

Add retry logic for HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) responses to handle
server-side rate limiting gracefully. When Git's HTTP client receives
a 429 response, it can now automatically retry the request after an
appropriate delay, respecting the server's rate limits.
The implementation supports the RFC-compliant Retry-After header in
both delay-seconds (integer) and HTTP-date (RFC 2822) formats. If a
past date is provided, Git retries immediately without waiting.
Retry behavior is controlled by three new configuration options
(http.maxRetries, http.retryAfter, and http.maxRetryTime) which are
documented in git-config(1).
The retry logic implements a fail-fast approach: if any delay
(whether from server header or configuration) exceeds maxRetryTime,
Git fails immediately with a clear error message rather than capping
the delay. This provides better visibility into rate limiting issues.
The implementation includes extensive test coverage for basic retry
behavior, Retry-After header formats (integer and HTTP-date),
configuration combinations, maxRetryTime limits, invalid header
handling, environment variable overrides, and edge cases.

reencode_string_len() allocates len+1 bytes (including the NUL) and
returns the string length in len. strbuf_reencode() was calling
strbuf_attach(sb, out, len, len), so alloc was one byte too small.
strbuf_attach() then calls strbuf_grow(sb, 0). With alloc < len+1,
ALLOC_GROW always reallocates, so we reallocated immediately after
attach even when the strbuf was not extended further. Pass len+1 as
the alloc argument so the existing buffer is reused and the
reallocation is avoided.

`git log -L` has always bypassed the standard diff pipeline.
`dump_diff_hacky()` in line-log.c hand-rolls its own diff headers and
hunk output, which means most diff formatting options are silently
ignored. A NEEDSWORK comment has acknowledged this since the feature
was introduced:
/*
* NEEDSWORK: manually building a diff here is not the Right
* Thing(tm). log -L should be built into the diff pipeline.
*/
Remove `dump_diff_hacky()` and its helpers and route -L output through
`builtin_diff()` / `fn_out_consume()`, the same path used by `git diff`
and `git log -p`. The mechanism is a pair of callback wrappers that sit
between `xdi_diff_outf()` and `fn_out_consume()`, filtering xdiff's
output to only the tracked line ranges. To ensure xdiff emits all lines
within each range as context, the context length is inflated to span the
largest range.
Wire up the `-L` implies `--patch` default in revision setup rather
than forcing it at output time, so `line_log_print()` is just
`diffcore_std()` + `diff_flush()` with no format save/restore.
Rename detection is a no-op since pairs are already resolved during
the history walk in `queue_diffs()`, but running `diffcore_std()`
means `-S`/`-G` (pickaxe), `--orderfile`, and `--diff-filter` now
work with `-L`, and `diff_resolve_rename_copy()` sets pair statuses
correctly without manual assignment.
Switch `diff_filepair_dup()` from `xmalloc` to `xcalloc` so that new
fields (including `line_ranges`) are zero-initialized by default.
As a result, diff formatting options that were previously silently
ignored (e.g. --word-diff, --no-prefix, -w, --color-moved) now work
with -L, and output gains `index` lines, `new file mode` headers, and
funcname context in `@@` headers. This is a user-visible output change:
tools that parse -L output may need to handle the additional header
lines.
The context-length inflation means xdiff may process more output than
needed for very wide line ranges, but benchmarks on files up to 7800
lines show no measurable regression.

queue_diffs() passes the caller's diff_options, which may carry
user-specified pickaxe state, to diff_tree_oid() and diffcore_std()
when detecting renames for line-level history tracking. When pickaxe
options are present on the command line (-G and -S to filter by text
pattern, --find-object to filter by object identity), diffcore_std()
also runs diffcore_pickaxe(), which may discard diff pairs that are
relevant for rename detection. Losing those pairs breaks rename
following.
Before a2bb801f6a (line-log: avoid unnecessary full tree diffs,
2019-08-21), this silently truncated history at rename boundaries.
That commit moved filter_diffs_for_paths() inside the rename-
detection block, so it only runs when diff_might_be_rename() returns
true. When pickaxe discards a rename pair, the rename goes
undetected, and a deletion pair at a subsequent commit passes
through uncleaned, reaching process_diff_filepair() with an invalid
filespec and triggering an assertion failure.
Fix this by building a private diff_options for the rename-detection
path inside queue_diffs(), following the same pattern used by blame's
find_rename(). This isolates the rename machinery from unrelated
user-specified options.

The "reference-transaction" hook is invoked multiple times during a ref
transaction. Each invocation corresponds to a different phase:
- The "prepared" phase indicates that references have been locked.
- The "committed" phase indicates that all updates have been written to disk.
- The "aborted" phase indicates that the transaction has been aborted and that
all changes have been rolled back.
This hook can be used to learn about the updates that Git wants to perform.
For example, forges use it to coordinate reference updates across multiple
nodes.
However, the phases are insufficient for some specific use cases. The earliest
observable phase in the "reference-transaction" hook is "prepared", at which
point Git has already taken exclusive locks on every affected reference. This
makes it suitable for last-chance validation, but not for serialization. So by
the time a hook sees the "prepared" phase, it has no way to defer locking, and
thus it cannot rearrange multiple concurrent ref transactions relative to one
another.
Introduce a new "preparing" phase that runs before the "prepared" phase, that
is before Git acquires any reference lock on disk. This gives callers a
well-defined window to perform validation, enable higher-level ordering of
concurrent transactions, or reject the transaction entirely, all without
interfering with the locking state.
This change is strictly speaking not backwards compatible. Existing hook
scripts that do not know how to handle unknown phases may treat 'preparing'
as an error and return non-zero. But the hook is considered to expose
internal implementation details of how Git works, and as such we have
been a bit more lenient with changing its exact semantics, like for example
in a8ae923f85 (refs: support symrefs in 'reference-transaction' hook, 2024-05-07).
An alternative would be to introduce a "reference-transaction-v2" hook that
knows about the new phase. This feels like a rather heavy-weight option though,
and was thus discarded.

See e.g. 0ae23ab5 (doc: convert git worktree to synopsis style,
2025-10-05) for the markup rules for this style.
There aren’t many subtleties to the transformation of this doc since it
doesn’t use any advanced constructs. The only thing is that "`:`{nbsp}" is
used instead of `': '` to refer to effective inline-verbatim with
a space (␠).[1] I also use (_) for emphasis although (') gives the
same result.
Also prefer linking to Git commands instead of saying e.g. `git
format-patch`. But for this command we can type out git-interpret-
trailers(1) to avoid a self-reference.
Also replace camel case `<keyAlias>` with kebab case `<key-alias>`.
And while doing that make sure to replace `trailer.*` with
`trailer.<key-alias>`.
† 1: Similar to "`tag:`{nbsp}" in `Documentation/pretty-formats.adoc`

We retrieve config values with repo_config_get_string(), which will
allocate a new copy of the string for us. But we don't hold on to those
strings, since they are just fed to git_config_colorbool() and
color_parse(). But nor do we free them, which means they leak.
We can fix this by using the "_tmp" form of repo_config_get_string(),
which just hands us a pointer directly to the internal storage. This is
OK for our purposes, since we don't need it to last for longer than our
parsing calls.
Two interesting side notes here:
1. Many types already have a repo_config_get_X() variant that handles
this for us (e.g., repo_config_get_bool()). But neither colorbools
nor colors themselves have such helpers. We might think about
adding them, but converting all callers is a larger task, and out
of scope for this fix.
2. As far as I can tell, this leak has been there since 960786e761
(push: colorize errors, 2018-04-21), but wasn't detected by LSan in
our test suite. It started triggering when we applied dd3693eb08
(transport-helper, connect: use clean_on_exit to reap children on
abnormal exit, 2026-03-12) which is mostly unrelated.
Even weirder, it seems to trigger only with clang (and not gcc),
and only with GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT=reftable. So I think this
is another odd case where the pointers happened to be hanging
around in stack memory, but changing the pattern of function calls
in nearby code was enough for them to be incidentally overwritten.

Replace old-style path existence checks in t4200-rerere.sh with
the appropriate test_path_* helper functions. These helpers provide
clearer diagnostic messages on failure than the raw shell test
builtin.

"git apply" has an option -p that takes an integer as its argument.
Unfortunately the function apply_option_parse_p() in charge of parsing
this argument uses atoi() to convert from string to integer, which
allows a non-digit after the number (e.g. "1q") to be silently ignored.
As a consequence, an argument that does not begin with a digit silently
becomes a zero. Despite this command working fine when a non-positive
argument is passed, it might be useful for the end user to know that
their input contains non-digits that might've been unintended.
Replace atoi() with strtol_i() to catch malformed inputs.
