12 daysmingw: use strftime() directly in UCRT buildsJohannes Schindelin
The `mingw_strftime()` wrapper exists to work around msvcrt.dll's incomplete `strftime()` implementation by dynamically loading the version from ucrtbase.dll at runtime via `LoadLibrary()` + `GetProcAddress()`. When the binary is already linked against UCRT (i.e. when building in the UCRT64 environment), the linked-in `strftime()` is the ucrtbase.dll version, making the dynamic loading needless churn: It's calling the very same code. Simply guard both the declaration and implementation so that the unnecessary work-around is skipped in UCRT builds.

13 dayst9300: work around partial read bug in Dash v0.5.13Patrick Steinhardt
When executing t9300 with Dash v0.5.13.1 we can see that the test hangs completely with the following (condensed) trace: git fast-import + error=1 + read output + cat input + echo checkpoint + echo progress checkpoint + test rogress checkpoint = progress checkpoint + test rogress checkpoint = UNEXPECTED + echo cruft: rogress checkpoint cruft: rogress checkpoint + read output + test = progress checkpoint + test = UNEXPECTED + echo cruft: cruft: + read output Basically, what's happening here is that we spawn git-fast-import(1) and wait for it to output a certain string, "progress checkpoint". Curiously though, what we end up reading is "rogress checkpoint" -- so the first byte of the expected string is missing. Same as in the preceding commit, this seems to be a bug in Dash itself that bisects to c5bf970 (expand: Add multi-byte support to pmatch, 2024-06-02). But other than in the preceding commit, this bug has already been fixed upstream in 079059a (input: Fix heap-buffer-overflow in preadbuffer on long lines, 2026-02-11), which is part of v0.5.13.2. For now though, work around the bug by waiting for the expected output in a different way. There is no good reason why one version should work better than the other, but at least the new version doesn't exhibit the bug. And, if you ask me, it's also slightly easier to read.

13 dayst: work around multibyte bug in quoted heredocs with Dash v0.5.13Patrick Steinhardt
When executing our test suite with Dash v0.5.13.2 one can observe several test failures that all have the same symptoms: we have a quoted heredoc that contains multibyte characters, but the final data does not match what we actually wanted to write. One such example is in t0300, where we see the diffs like the following: --- expect-stdout 2026-04-01 07:25:45.249919440 +0000 +++ stdout 2026-04-01 07:25:45.254919509 +0000 @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ protocol=https host=example.com -path=perĂº.git +path=perĂº.git username=foo password=bar While seemingly the same, the data that we've written via the heredoc contains some invisible bytes. The expected hex representation of the string is: 7065 72c3 ba2e 6769 74 per...git But what we actually get instead is this string: 7065 7285 02c3 ba02 852e 6769 74 per.......git What's important to note here is that the multibyte character exists in both versions. But in the broken version we see that the bytes are wrapped in a sequence of "85 02" and "02 85". This is the CTLMBCHAR byte sequence of Dash, which it uses internally to quote multibyte sequences. As it turns out, this bug was introduced in c5bf970 (expand: Add multi-byte support to pmatch, 2024-06-02), which adds multibyte support to more contexts of Dash. One of these contexts seems to be in heredocs, and Dash _does_ correctly unquote these multibyte sequences when using an unquoted heredoc. But the bug seems to be that this unquoting does not happen in quoted heredocs, and the bug still exists on the latest "master" branch. For now, work around the bug by using unquoted heredocs instead. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
13 daysreftable/system: add abstraction to mmap filesPatrick Steinhardt
In our codebase we have a couple of wrappers around mmap(3p) that allow us to reimplement the syscall on platforms that don't have it natively, like for example Windows. Other projects that embed the reftable library may have a different infra though to hook up mmap wrappers, but these are currently hard to integrate. Provide the infrastructure to let projects easily define the mmap interface with a custom struct and custom functions.

13 daysreftable/fsck: use REFTABLE_UNUSED instead of UNUSEDPatrick Steinhardt
While we have the reftable-specific `REFTABLE_UNUSED` header, we accidentally introduced a new usage of the Git-specific `UNUSED` header into the reftable library in 9051638519 (reftable: add code to facilitate consistency checks, 2025-10-07). Convert the site to use `REFTABLE_UNUSED`. Ideally, we'd move the definition of `UNUSED` into "git-compat-util.h" so that it becomes in accessible to the reftable library. But this is unfortunately not easily possible as "compat/mingw-posix.h" requires this macro, and this header is included by "compat/posix.h".

13 daysreftable/stack: provide fsync(3p) via system headerPatrick Steinhardt
Users of the reftable library are expected to provide their own function callback in cases they want to sync(3p) data to disk via the reftable write options. But if no such function was provided we end up calling fsync(3p) directly, which may not even be available on some systems. While dropping the explicit call to fsync(3p) would work, it would lead to an unsafe default behaviour where a project may have forgotten to set up the callback function, and that could lead to potential data loss. So this is not a great solution. Instead, drop the callback function and make it mandatory for the project to define fsync(3p). In the case of Git, we can then easily inject our custom implementation via the "reftable-system.h" header so that we continue to use `fsync_component()`.

13 daysreftable: introduce "reftable-system.h" headerPatrick Steinhardt
We're including a couple of standard headers like <stdint.h> in a bunch of locations, which makes it hard for a project to plug in their own logic for making required functionality available. For us this is for example via "compat/posix.h", which already includes all of the system headers relevant to us. Introduce a new "reftable-system.h" header that allows projects to provide their own headers. This new header is supposed to contain all the project-specific bits to provide the POSIX-like environment, and some additional supporting code. With this change, we thus have the following split in our system-specific code: - "reftable/reftable-system.h" is the project-specific header that provides a POSIX-like environment. Every project is expected to provide their own implementation. - "reftable/system.h" contains the project-independent definition of the interfaces that a project needs to implement. This file should not be touched by a project. - "reftable/system.c" contains the project-specific implementation of the interfaces defined in "system.h". Again, every project is expected to provide their own implementation. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
13 daysreplay: allow to specify a ref with option --refToon Claes
When option '--onto' is passed to git-replay(1), the command will update refs from the <revision-range> passed to the command. When using option '--advance' or '--revert', the argument of that option is a ref that will be updated. To enable users to specify which ref to update, add option '--ref'. When using option '--ref', the refs described above are left untouched and instead the argument of this option is updated instead. Because this introduces code paths in replay.c that jump to `out` before init_basic_merge_options() is called on `merge_opt`, zero-initialize the struct.

13 daysread-cache: disable renames in add_files_to_cacheNick Golden
add_files_to_cache() refreshes the index from worktree changes and does not need rename detection. When unmerged entries and a deleted stage-0 path are present together, rename detection can pair them and rewrite an unmerged diff pair to point at the deleted path. That later makes "git commit -a" and "git add -u" try to stat the deleted path and die with "unable to stat". Disable rename detection in this callback-driven staging path and add a regression test covering the crash.

14 dayst7004: replace wc -l with modern test helpersSiddharth Shrimali
Pipelines of the form "test $(git tag | wc -l) -eq 0" suppress git's exit code. This means a crash or unexpected failure from git tag would go undetected. Additionally, the use of $(...) creates a subshell for each check, which adds unnecessary overhead. Replace these patterns with test_must_be_empty and test_line_count. These helpers check the output of git directly from a file, ensuring git's exit code is captured properly via the preceding "&&" chain. They also provide better diagnostics on failure by printing the contents of the file when a check does not pass.
