2026-03-05Merge branch 'ob/core-attributesfile-in-repository'Junio C Hamano
The core.attributesfile is intended to be set per repository, but were kept track of by a single global variable in-core, which has been corrected by moving it to per-repository data structure. * ob/core-attributesfile-in-repository: environment: move "branch.autoSetupMerge" into `struct repo_config_values` environment: stop using core.sparseCheckout globally environment: stop storing `core.attributesFile` globally
2026-03-03cache-tree: allow writing in-memory index as treePatrick Steinhardt
The function `write_in_core_index_as_tree()` takes a repository and writes its index into a tree object. What this function cannot do though is to take an _arbitrary_ in-memory index. Introduce a new `struct index_state` parameter so that the caller can pass a different index than the one belonging to the repository. This will be used in a subsequent commit.

2026-03-03add-patch: allow disabling editing of hunksPatrick Steinhardt
The "add-patch" mode allows the user to edit hunks to apply custom changes. This is incompatible with a new `git history split` command that we're about to introduce in a subsequent commit, so we need a way to disable this mode. Add a new flag to disable editing hunks.

2026-03-03add-patch: split out `struct interactive_options`Patrick Steinhardt
The `struct add_p_opt` is reused both by our infra for "git add -p" and "git add -i". Users of `run_add_i()` for example are expected to pass `struct add_p_opt`. This is somewhat confusing and raises the question of which options apply to what part of the stack. But things are even more confusing than that: while callers are expected to pass in `struct add_p_opt`, these options ultimately get used to initialize a `struct add_i_state` that is used by both subsystems. So we are basically going full circle here. Refactor the code and split out a new `struct interactive_options` that hosts common options used by both. These options are then applied to a `struct interactive_config` that hosts common configuration. This refactoring doesn't yet fully detangle the two subsystems from one another, as we still end up calling `init_add_i_state()` in the "git add -p" subsystem. This will be fixed in a subsequent commit. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2026-02-26environment: move "branch.autoSetupMerge" into `struct repo_config_values`Olamide Caleb Bello
The config value `branch.autoSetupMerge` is parsed in `git_default_branch_config()` and stored in the global variable `git_branch_track`. This global variable can be overwritten by another repository when multiple Git repos run in the the same process. Move this value into `struct repo_config_values` in the_repository to retain current behaviours and move towards libifying Git. Since the variable is no longer a global variable, it has been renamed to `branch_track` in the struct `repo_config_values`.

2026-02-17interactive -p: add new `--auto-advance` flagAbraham Samuel Adekunle
When using the interactive add, reset, stash or checkout machinery, we do not have the option of reworking with a file when selecting hunks, because the session automatically advances to the next file or ends if we have just one file. Introduce the flag `--auto-advance` which auto advances by default, when interactively selecting patches with the '--patch' option. However, the `--no-auto-advance` option does not auto advance, thereby allowing users the option to rework with files.

2026-02-09checkout: tell "parse_remote_branch" which command is calling itJunio C Hamano
When "git checkout <dwim>" and "git switch <dwim>" need to error out due to ambiguity of the branch name <dwim>, these two commands give an advise message with a sample command that tells the user how to disambiguate from the parse_remote_branch() function. The sample command hardcodes "git checkout", since this feature predates "git switch" by a large margin. To a user who said "git switch <dwim>" and got this message, it is confusing. Pass the "enum checkout_command", which was invented in the previous step for this exact purpose, down the call chain leading to parse_remote_branch() function to change the sample command shown to the user in this advise message. Also add a bit more test coverage for this "fail to DWIM under ambiguity" that we lack, as well as the message we produce when we fail.

2026-02-09checkout: pass program-readable token to unified "main"Junio C Hamano
The "git checkout", "git switch", and "git restore" commands share a single implementation, checkout_main(), which switches error message it gives using the usage string passed by each of these three front-ends. In order to be able to tweak behaviours of the commands based on which one we are executing, invent an enum that denotes which one of these three commands is currently executing, and pass that to checkout_main() instead. With this step, there is no externally visible behaviour change, as this enum parameter is only used to choose among the three usage strings. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2025-12-25checkout: quote invalid treeish in error messagebrian m. carlson
We received a report that invoking "git restore -source my_base_branch" resulted in the confusing error message "fatal: could not resolve ource". This looked like a typo in our error message, but it is actually because "-source" is missing its second dash and is being resolved as "-s ource". However, due to the lack of the quoting recommended in CodingGuidelines, this is confusing to the reader and we can do better. Add the necessary quoting to this message.

2025-11-04refs: introduce wrapper struct for `each_ref_fn`Patrick Steinhardt
The `each_ref_fn` callback function type is used across our code base for several different functions that iterate through reference. There's a bunch of callbacks implementing this type, which makes any changes to the callback signature extremely noisy. An example of the required churn is e8207717f1 (refs: add referent to each_ref_fn, 2024-08-09): adding a single argument required us to change 48 files. It was already proposed back then [1] that we might want to introduce a wrapper structure to alleviate the pain going forward. While this of course requires the same kind of global refactoring as just introducing a new parameter, it at least allows us to more change the callback type afterwards by just extending the wrapper structure. One counterargument to this refactoring is that it makes the structure more opaque. While it is obvious which callsites need to be fixed up when we change the function type, it's not obvious anymore once we use a structure. That being said, we only have a handful of sites that actually need to populate this wrapper structure: our ref backends, "refs/iterator.c" as well as very few sites that invoke the iterator callback functions directly. Introduce this wrapper structure so that we can adapt the iterator interfaces more readily.

This patch compliments the previous commit, where builtins that use add-patch infrastructure now respect diff.context and diff.interHunkContext file configurations. In particular, this patch helps users who don't want to set persistent context configurations or just want a way to override them on a one-time basis, by allowing the relevant builtins to accept corresponding command line options that override the file configurations. This mimics commands such as diff and log, which allow for both context file configuration and command line overrides.

2025-07-23config: drop `git_config_get_bool()` wrapperPatrick Steinhardt
In 036876a1067 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by default, 2024-08-13) we have moved around a bunch of functions in the config subsystem that depend on `the_repository`. Those function have been converted into mere wrappers around their equivalent function that takes in a repository as parameter, and the intent was that we'll eventually remove those wrappers to make the dependency on the global repository variable explicit at the callsite. Follow through with that intent and remove `git_config_get_bool()`. All callsites are adjusted so that they use `repo_config_get_bool(the_repository, ...)` instead. While some callsites might already have a repository available, this mechanical conversion is the exact same as the current situation and thus cannot cause any regression.

2025-07-16odb: introduce `odb_write_object()`Patrick Steinhardt
We do not have a backend-agnostic way to write objects into an object database. While there is `write_object_file()`, this function is rather specific to the loose object format. Introduce `odb_write_object()` to plug this gap. For now, this function is a simple wrapper around `write_object_file()` and doesn't even use the passed-in object database yet. This will change in subsequent commits, where `write_object_file()` is converted so that it works on top of an `odb_source`. `odb_write_object()` will then become responsible for deciding which source an object shall be written to.

2025-06-03usage: allow dying without writing an error messagePatrick Steinhardt
Sometimes code wants to die in a situation where it already has written an error message. To use the same error code as `die()` we have to use `exit(128)`, which is easy to get wrong and leaves magic numbers all over our codebase. Teach `die_message_builtin()` to not print any error when passed a `NULL` pointer as error string. Like this, such users can now call `die(NULL)` to achieve the same result without any hardcoded error codes. Adapt a couple of builtins to use this new pattern to demonstrate that there is a need for such a helper.

2025-03-10hash: stop depending on `the_repository` in `null_oid()`Patrick Steinhardt
The `null_oid()` function returns the object ID that only consists of zeroes. Naturally, this ID also depends on the hash algorithm used, as the number of zeroes is different between SHA1 and SHA256. Consequently, the function returns the hash-algorithm-specific null object ID. This is currently done by depending on `the_hash_algo`, which implicitly makes us depend on `the_repository`. Refactor the function to instead pass in the hash algorithm for which we want to retrieve the null object ID. Adapt callsites accordingly by passing in `the_repository`, thus bubbling up the dependency on that global variable by one layer. There are a couple of trivial exceptions for subsystems that already got rid of `the_repository`. These subsystems instead use the repository that is available via the calling context: - "builtin/grep.c" - "grep.c" - "refs/debug.c" There are also two non-trivial exceptions: - "diff-no-index.c": Here we know that we may not have a repository initialized at all, so we cannot rely on `the_repository`. Instead, we adapt `diff_no_index()` to get a `struct git_hash_algo` as parameter. The only caller is located in "builtin/diff.c", where we know to call `repo_set_hash_algo()` in case we're running outside of a Git repository. Consequently, it is fine to continue passing `the_repository->hash_algo` even in this case. - "builtin/ls-files.c": There is an in-flight patch series that drops `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` in this file, which causes a semantic conflict because we use `null_oid()` in `show_submodule()`. The value is passed to `repo_submodule_init()`, which may use the object ID to resolve a tree-ish in the superproject from which we want to read the submodule config. As such, the object ID should refer to an object in the superproject, and consequently we need to use its hash algorithm. This means that we could in theory just not bother about this edge case at all and just use `the_repository` in "diff-no-index.c". But doing so would feel misdesigned.

The value of "core.logAllRefUpdates" is being stored in the global variable `log_all_ref_updates`. This design is somewhat aged nowadays, where it is entirely possible to access multiple repositories in the same process which all have different values for this setting. So using a single global variable to track it is plain wrong. Remove the global variable. Instead, we now provide a new function part of the repo-settings subsystem that parses the value for a specific repository.

In refs-related code we modify the global `log_all_ref_updates` variable, which is done because `should_autocreate_reflog()` does not accept passing an `enum log_refs_config` but instead accesses the global variable. Adapt its interface such that the value is provided by the caller, which allows us to compute the proper value locally without having to modify global state. This change requires us to move the enum to "repo-settings.h", or otherwise we get compilation errors due to include cycles. We're about to fully move this setting into the repo-settings subsystem anyway, so this is fine. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Use of API functions that implicitly depend on the_repository object in the config subsystem has been rewritten to pass a repository object through the callchain. * ps/config-wo-the-repository: config: hide functions using `the_repository` by default global: prepare for hiding away repo-less config functions config: don't depend on `the_repository` with branch conditions config: don't have setters depend on `the_repository` config: pass repo to functions that rename or copy sections config: pass repo to `git_die_config()` config: pass repo to `git_config_get_expiry_in_days()` config: pass repo to `git_config_get_expiry()` config: pass repo to `git_config_get_max_percent_split_change()` config: pass repo to `git_config_get_split_index()` config: pass repo to `git_config_get_index_threads()` config: expose `repo_config_clear()` config: introduce missing setters that take repo as parameter path: hide functions using `the_repository` by default path: stop relying on `the_repository` in `worktree_git_path()` path: stop relying on `the_repository` when reporting garbage hooks: remove implicit dependency on `the_repository` editor: do not rely on `the_repository` for interactive edits path: expose `do_git_common_path()` as `repo_common_pathv()` path: expose `do_git_path()` as `repo_git_pathv()`
2024-08-15Merge branch 'jc/refs-symref-referent'Junio C Hamano
The refs API has been taught to give symref target information to the users of ref iterators, allowing for-each-ref and friends to avoid an extra ref_resolve_* API call per a symbolic ref. * jc/refs-symref-referent: ref-filter: populate symref from iterator refs: add referent to each_ref_fn refs: keep track of unresolved reference value in iterators
2024-08-13hooks: remove implicit dependency on `the_repository`Patrick Steinhardt
We implicitly depend on `the_repository` in our hook subsystem because we use `strbuf_git_path()` to compute hook paths. Remove this dependency by accepting a `struct repository` as parameter instead. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-08-09refs: add referent to each_ref_fnJohn Cai
Add a parameter to each_ref_fn so that callers to the ref APIs that use this function as a callback can have acess to the unresolved value of a symbolic ref. Signed-off-by: John Cai <johncai86@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2024-07-31Merge branch 'jc/checkout-no-op-switch-errors'Junio C Hamano
"git checkout --ours" (no other arguments) complained that the option is incompatible with branch switching, which is technically correct, but found confusing by some users. It now says that the user needs to give pathspec to specify what paths to checkout. * jc/checkout-no-op-switch-errors: checkout: special case error messages during noop switching
2024-07-13merge-recursive: honor diff.algorithmAntonin Delpeuch
The documentation claims that "recursive defaults to the diff.algorithm config setting", but this is currently not the case. This fixes it, ensuring that diff.algorithm is used when -Xdiff-algorithm is not supplied. This affects the following porcelain commands: "merge", "rebase", "cherry-pick", "pull", "stash", "log", "am" and "checkout". It also affects the "merge-tree" ancillary interrogator. This change refactors the initialization of merge options to introduce two functions, "init_merge_ui_options" and "init_merge_basic_options" instead of just one "init_merge_options". This design follows the approach used in diff.c, providing initialization methods for porcelain and plumbing commands respectively. Thanks to that, the "replay" and "merge-recursive" plumbing commands remain unaffected by diff.algorithm.

2024-07-02checkout: special case error messages during noop switchingJunio C Hamano
"git checkout" ran with no branch and no pathspec behaves like switching the branch to the current branch (in other words, a no-op, except that it gives a side-effect "here are the modified paths" report). But unlike "git checkout HEAD" or "git checkout main" (when you are on the 'main' branch), the user is much less conscious that they are "switching" to the current branch. This twists end-user expectation in a strange way. There are options (like "--ours") that make sense only when we are checking out paths out of either the tree-ish or out of the index. So the error message the command below gives $ git checkout --ours fatal: '--ours/theirs' cannot be used with switching branches is technically correct, but because the end-user may not even be aware of the fact that the command they are issuing is about no-op branch switching [*], they may find the error confusing. Let's refactor the code to make it easier to special case the "no-op branch switching" situation, and then customize the exact error message for "--ours/--theirs". Since it is more likely that the end-user forgot to give pathspec that is required by the option, let's make it say $ git checkout --ours fatal: '--ours/theirs' needs the paths to check out instead. Among the other options that are incompatible with branch switching, there may be some that benefit by having messages tweaked when a no-op branch switching is done, but I'll leave them as #leftoverbits material. [Footnote] * Yes, the end-users are irrational. When they did not give "--ours", they take it granted that "git checkout" gives a short status, e.g.. $ git checkout M builtin/checkout.c M t/t7201-co.sh exactly as a branch switching command.
