Using format-patch with --commit-list-format different than shortlog,
causes the commit entry lines to wrap if they get longer than
MAIL_DEFAULT_WRAP (72 characters).
While this might be sensible for many when sending changes through
email, it forces this decision of wrapping on the user, reducing the
control granularity of --commit-list-format.
Teach generate_commit_list_cover() to respect commit entry line lengths
and place this wrapping rule on the "modern" preset format instead.

Having to prefix a custom format-string with "log:" when passed from the
CLI can be annoying. It would be great if this prefix wasn't required.
Teach make_cover_letter() to accept custom format-strings without the
"log:" prefix if a placeholder is detected.
Note that both here and in "git log --format" the check is done naively
by just checking for the presence of a '%'.

To align the name of the configuration variable and the name of the
command line option, either one should change name. By changing the name
of the option we get the added benefit of having --cover-<TAB> expand to
--cover-letter without ambiguity.
If the user gives the --cover-letter-format option it would be
reasonable to expect that the user wants to generate the cover letter
despite not giving --cover-letter.
Rename --cover-letter-format to --commit-list-format and make it imply
--cover-letter unless --no-cover-letter is given.

Using "--cover-letter" we can tell format-patch to generate a cover
letter, in this cover letter there's a list of commits included in the
patch series and the format is specified by the "--cover-letter-format"
option. Would be useful if this format could be configured from the
config file instead of always needing to pass it from the command line.
Teach format-patch how to read the format spec for the cover letter from
the config files. The variable it should look for is called
format.commitListFormat.
Possible values:
- commitListFormat is set but no string is passed: it will default to
"[%(count)/%(total)] %s"
- if a string is passed: will use it as a format spec. Note that this
is either "shortlog" or a format spec prefixed by "log:"
e.g."log:%s (%an)"
- if commitListFormat is not set: it will default to the shortlog
format.

Often when sending patch series there's a need to clarify to the
reviewer what's the purpose of said series, since it might be difficult
to understand it from reading the commits messages one by one.
"git format-patch" provides the useful "--cover-letter" flag to declare
if we want it to generate a template for us to use. By default it will
generate a "git shortlog" of the changes, which developers find less
useful than they'd like, mainly because the shortlog groups commits by
author, and gives no obvious chronological order.
Give format-patch the ability to specify an alternative format spec
through the "--cover-letter-format" option. This option either takes
"shortlog", which is the current format, or a format spec prefixed with
"log:".
Example:
git format-patch --cover-letter \
--cover-letter-format="log:[%(count)/%(total)] %s (%an)" HEAD~3
[1/3] this is a commit summary (Mirko Faina)
[2/3] this is another commit summary (Mirko Faina)

The config `format.noprefix` was added in 8d5213de (format-patch: add
format.noprefix option, 2023-03-09) to support no-prefix on paths.
That was immediately after making git-format-patch(1) not respect
`diff.noprefix`.[1]
The intent was to mirror `diff.noprefix`. But this config was
unintentionally[2] implemented by enabling no-prefix if any kind of
value is set.
† 1: c169af8f (format-patch: do not respect diff.noprefix, 2023-03-09)
† 2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260211073553.GA1867915@coredump.intra.peff.net/
Let’s indeed mirror `diff.noprefix` by treating it as a boolean.
This is a breaking change. And as far as breaking changes go it is
pretty benign:
• The documentation claims that this config is equivalent to
`diff.noprefix`; this is just a bug fix if the documentation is
what defines the application interface
• Only users with non-boolean values will run into problems when we
try to parse it as a boolean. But what would (1) make them suspect
they could do that in the first place, and (2) have motivated them to
do it?
• Users who have set this to `false` and expect that to mean *enable
format.noprefix* (current behavior) will now have the opposite
experience. Which is not a reasonable setup.
Let’s only offer a breaking change fig leaf by advising about the
previous behavior before dying.

"git format-patch" takes "--from=<user ident>" command line option
and uses the given ident for patch e-mails, but this is not applied
to the cover letter, the option is ignored and the committer ident
of the current user is used. This has been the case ever since
"--from" was introduced in a9080475 (teach format-patch to place

Our coding guidelines say that:
Functions that operate on `struct S` are named `S_<verb>()` and should
generally receive a pointer to `struct S` as first parameter.
While most of the functions related to `struct commit_list` already
follow that naming schema, `free_commit_list()` doesn't.
Rename the function to address this and adjust all of its callers. Add a
compatibility wrapper for the old function name to ease the transition
and avoid any semantic conflicts with in-flight patch series. This
wrapper will be removed once Git 2.53 has been released.

Subsequent commits will move the backend-specific logic of object
streaming into their respective subsystems. These subsystems have gotten
rid of `the_repository` already, but we still use it in two locations in
the streaming subsystem.
Prepare for the move by fixing those two cases. Converting the logic in
`open_istream_pack_non_delta()` is trivial as we already got the object
database as input.
But for `stream_blob_to_fd()` we have to add a new parameter to make it
accessible. So, as we already have to adjust all callers anyway, rename
the function to `odb_stream_blob_to_fd()` to indicate it's part of the
object subsystem.

git-format-patch(1) supports Git notes by showing them beneath the
patch/commit message, similar to git-log(1). The command also supports
showing those same notes ref names in the range diff output.
Note *the same* ref names; any Git notes options or configuration
variables need to be handed off to the range-diff machinery. This works
correctly in the case when the range diff is on the cover letter. But it
does not work correctly when the output is a single patch with an
embedded range diff.
Concretely, git-format-patch(1) needs to pass `--[no-]notes` options
on to the range-diff subprocess in `range-diff.c`. This is handled in
`builtin/log.c` by the local variable `log_arg` in the case of mul-
tiple commits, but not in the single commit case where there is no
cover letter and the range diff is embedded in the patch output; the
range diff is then made in `log-tree.c`, whither `log_arg` has not
been propagated. This means that the range-diff subprocess reverts
to its default behavior, which is to act like git-log(1) w.r.t. notes.
We need to fix this. But first lay the groundwork by converting
`log_arg` to a struct member; next we can simply use that member
in `log-tree.c` without having to thread it from `builtin/log.c`.
No functional changes.

Rename `other_arg` to `log_arg` in `range_diff_options` and
related places.
“Other argument” comes from bd361918 (range-diff: pass through --notes
to `git log`, 2019-11-20) which introduced Git notes handling to
git-range-diff(1) by passing that option on to git-log(1). And that kind
of name might be fine in a local context. However, it was initially
spread among multiple files, and is now[1] part of the
`range_diff_options` struct. It is, prima facie, difficult to guess what
“other” means, especially when just looking at the struct.
But with a little reading we find out that it is used for `--[no-]notes`
and `--diff-merges`, which are both passed on to git-log(1). We should
just rename it to reflect this role; `log_arg` suggests, along with the
`strvec` type, that it is used to pass extra arguments to git-log(1).

There have been quite a few `--i-still-use-this` user reports since Git
2.51.0 was released.[1][2] And it doesn’t seem like they are reading
the man page about the git-log(1) equivalent.
Tell them what options to plug into git-log(1), either as a replacement
command or as an alias.[3] That template produces almost the same
output[4] and is arguably a plug-in replacement. Concretely, add
an optional `hint` argument so that we can use it right after the
initial error line.
Also mention the same concrete options in the documentation while we’re
at it.

When comparing large commit ranges (e.g., 250,000+ commits), range-diff
attempts to allocate an n×n cost matrix that can exhaust available
memory. For example, with 256,784 commits (n = 513,568), the matrix
would require approximately 256GB of memory (513,568² × 4 bytes),
causing either immediate segmentation faults due to integer overflow or
system hangs.
Add a memory limit check in get_correspondences() before allocating the
cost matrix. This check uses the total size in bytes (n² × sizeof(int))
and compares it against a configurable maximum, preventing both
excessive memory usage and integer overflow issues.
The limit is configurable via a new --max-memory option that accepts
human-readable sizes (e.g., "1G", "500M"). The default is 4GB for 64 bit
systems and 2GB for 32 bit systems. This allows comparing ranges of
approximately 32,000 (16,000) commits - generous for real-world use cases
while preventing impractical operations.
When the limit is exceeded, range-diff now displays a clear error
message showing both the requested memory size and the maximum allowed,
formatted in human-readable units for better user experience.
Example usage:
git range-diff --max-memory=1G branch1...branch2
git range-diff --max-memory=500M base..topic1 base..topic2
This approach was chosen over alternatives:
- Pre-counting commits: Would require spawning additional git processes
and reading all commits twice
- Limiting by commit count: Less precise than actual memory usage
- Streaming approach: Would require significant refactoring of the
current algorithm
This issue was previously discussed in:

We added the --early-output feature long ago in cdcefbc971 (Add
"--early-output" log flag for interactive GUI use, 2007-11-03). The idea
was that GUIs could use it to progressively render a history view,
showing something quick-and-inaccurate at first and then enhancing it
later.
But we never documented it, and it appears never to have been used, even
by the projects which initially expressed interest. There was an RFC
patch for gitk to use it:
http://public-inbox.org/git/18221.2285.259487.655684@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com/
but it was never merged. Likewise QGit had a patch in:
https://lore.kernel.org/git/e5bfff550711040225ne67c907r2023b1354c35f35@mail.gmail.com/
but it was never fully merged (to this day, QGit has a commented-out line to
add "--early-output" to the "log" invocation). Searching for other
mentions on the web or forges like github.com turns up nothing.
Meanwhile, the feature has been broken off and on over the years without
anybody noticing (and naturally, there are no tests, either). From 2011
to 2017 the option didn't even turn on via "--early-output"; this was
fixed in e35b6ac56f (revision.h: turn rev_info.early_output back into an
unsigned int, 2017-06-10).
It worked for a while then, but it does not interact well at all with
commit-graphs (which are turned on by default these days). The main
logic to count early commits is triggered by limit_list(), which we
traditionally invoked when showing output in topo-order (and
--early-output always enables --topo-order). But that changed in
f0d9cc4196 (revision.c: begin refactoring --topo-order logic,
2018-11-01). Now when we have generation numbers, we skip limit_list()
entirely, and the early-output code shows no commits, and just the final
header "Final output: 1 done". Which is syntactically OK, but
semantically wrong: that message should give the total number of commits
we're about to show.
So let's drop the feature. It is extra code that is untested and
undocumented, and makes working on the revision machinery more brittle.
Given the history above, it seems unlikely that anybody is using it (or
has used it), and we can drop it without the usual deprecation period.
A gentler option might be to "soft" drop it: keep accepting the option,
have it imply --topo-order as it does now, print "Final output: 1 done",
and then do our regular traversal. That would keep any hypothetical
caller working. But it doesn't seem worth the hassle to me.

Rename them to "odb.{c,h}" accordingly.

"git whatchanged" that is longer to type than "git log --raw"
which is its modern rough equivalent has outlived its usefulness
more than 10 years ago. Plan to deprecate and remove it.
* jc/you-still-use-whatchanged:
whatschanged: list it in BreakingChanges document
whatchanged: remove when built with WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES
whatchanged: require --i-still-use-this
tests: prepare for a world without whatchanged
doc: prepare for a world without whatchanged
you-still-use-that??: help deprecating commands for removal
|
|
As we made "git whatchanged" require "--i-still-use-this" and asked
the users to report if they still want to use it, the logical next
step is to allow us build Git without "whatchanged" to prepare for
its eventual removal.
If we were to follow the pattern established in 8ccc75c2 (remote:
announce removal of "branches/" and "remotes/", 2025-01-22), we can
do this together with the documentation update to officially list
that the command will be removed in the BreakingChanges document,
but let's just keep the changes separate just in case we want to
proceed a bit slower.

The documentation of "git whatchanged" is pretty explicit that the
command was retained for historical reasons to help those whose fingers
cannot be retrained. Let's see if they still are finding it hard to
type "git log --raw" instead of "git whatchanged" by marking the
command as "nominated for removal", and require "--i-still-use-this"
on the command line. Adjust the tests so that the option is passed
when we invoke the command. In addition, we test that the command
fails when "--i-still-use-this" is not given.

The "object-store-ll.h" header has been introduced to keep transitive
header dependendcies and compile times at bay. Now that we have created
a new "object-store.c" file though we can easily move the last remaining
additional bit of "object-store.h", the `odb_path_map`, out of the
header.
Do so. As the "object-store.h" header is now equivalent to its low-level
alternative we drop the latter and inline it into the former.

The `safe_create_leading_directories()` function and its relatives are
located in "object-file.c", which is not a good fit as they provide
generic functionality not related to objects at all. Move them into
"path.c", which already hosts `safe_create_dir()` and its relative
`safe_create_dir_in_gitdir()`.
"path.c" is free of `the_repository`, but the moved functions depend on
`the_repository` to read the "core.sharedRepository" config. Adapt the
function signature to accept a repository as argument to fix the issue
and adjust callers accordingly.

There are a couple of functions exposed by "object.c" that implicitly
depend on `the_repository`. Remove this dependency by injecting the
repository via a parameter. Adapt callers accordingly by simply using
`the_repository`, except in cases where the subsystem is already free of
the repository. In that case, we instead pass the repository provided by
the caller's context.

Similar as with the preceding commit, we track "core.sharedRepository"
via a pair of global variables. Move them into `struct repo_settings` so
that we can instead track them per-repository.

instead of assuming the primary the_repository object.

Fix remaining -Wsign-compare warnings in "builtin/log.c" and mark the
file as -Wsign-compare-clean. While most of the fixes are obvious, one
fix requires us to use `cast_size_t_to_int()`, which will cause us to
die in case the `size_t` cannot be represented as `int`. This should be
fine though, as the data would typically be set either via a config key
or via the command line, neither of which should ever exceed a couple of
kilobytes of data.

Similar as with the preceding commit, adapt "builtin/log.c" so that it
tracks array indices via `size_t` instead of using signed integers. This
fixes a couple of -Wsign-compare warnings and prepares the code for
a similar refactoring of `repo_get_merge_bases_many()` in a subsequent
commit.
