2026-03-12run-command: wean auto_maintenance() functions off the_repositoryBurak Kaan Karaçay
The prepare_auto_maintenance() relies on the_repository to read configurations. Since run_auto_maintenance() calls prepare_auto_maintenance(), it also implicitly depends the_repository. Add 'struct repository *' as a parameter to both functions and update all callers to pass the_repository. With no global repository dependencies left in this file, remove the USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE macro.

2026-03-06rebase: support --trailerLi Chen
Add a new --trailer=<trailer> option to git rebase to append trailer lines to each rewritten commit message (merge backend only). Because the apply backend does not provide a commit-message filter, reject --trailer when --apply is in effect and require the merge backend instead. This option implies --force-rebase so that fast-forwarded commits are also rewritten. Validate trailer arguments early to avoid starting an interactive rebase with invalid input. Add integration tests covering error paths and trailer insertion across non-interactive and interactive rebases.

2026-01-15commit: rename `free_commit_list()` to conform to coding guidelinesPatrick Steinhardt
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. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

There are double frees and leaks around setup_revisions() API used in "git stash show", which has been fixed, and setup_revisions() API gained a wrapper to make it more ergonomic when using it with strvec-manged argc/argv pairs. * jk/setup-revisions-freefix: revision: retain argv NULL invariant in setup_revisions() treewide: pass strvecs around for setup_revisions_from_strvec() treewide: use setup_revisions_from_strvec() when we have a strvec revision: add wrapper to setup_revisions() from a strvec revision: manage memory ownership of argv in setup_revisions() stash: tell setup_revisions() to free our allocated strings
2025-09-22treewide: pass strvecs around for setup_revisions_from_strvec()Jeff King
The previous commit converted callers of setup_revisions() with a strvec to use the safer and easier _from_strvec() variant. Let's now convert spots that don't directly have a strvec, but receive an argc/argv pair that eventually comes from one. We'll instead pass the strvec down to the point where we call setup_revisions(). That makes these functions slightly less flexible if they were to grow other callers that don't use strvecs, but this rigidity is buying us some safety. It is only safe to pass the free_removed_argv_elements option to setup_revisions() if we know the elements of argv/argc are allocated on the heap. That isn't communicated in the type system when we are passed the bare elements. But if we get a strvec, we know that the elements are allocated strings. And at any rate, each of these modified functions has only a single caller (that has a strvec), so the loss of flexibility is unlikely to ever matter.

"core.commentChar=auto" that attempts to dynamically pick a suitable comment character is non-workable, as it is too much trouble to support for little benefit, and is marked as deprecated. * pw/3.0-commentchar-auto-deprecation: commit: print advice when core.commentString=auto config: warn on core.commentString=auto breaking-changes: deprecate support for core.commentString=auto
2025-08-26config: warn on core.commentString=autoPhillip Wood
As support for this setting was deprecated in the last commit print a warning (or die when WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES is enabled) if it is set. Avoid bombarding the user with warnings by only printing it (a) when running commands that call "git commit" and (b) only once per command. Some scaffolding is added to repo_read_config() to allow it to detect deprecated config settings and warn about them. As both "core.commentChar" and "core.commentString" set the comment character we record which one of them is used and tailor the warning message appropriately. Note the odd combination of die_message() followed by die(NULL) is to allow the next commit to insert a call to advise() in the middle.

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.

2025-04-17global: use designated initializers for optionsPatrick Steinhardt
While we expose macros for most of our different option types understood by the "parse-options" subsystem, not every combination of fields that has one as that would otherwise quickly lead to an explosion of macros. Instead, we just initialize structures manually for those variants of fields that don't have a macro. Callsites that open-code these structure initialization don't use designated initializers though and instead just provide values for each of the fields that they want to initialize. This has three significant downsides: - Callsites need to specify all values up to the last field that they care about. This often includes fields that should simply be left at their default zero-initialized state, which adds distraction. - Any reader not deeply familiar with the layout of the structure has a hard time figuring out what the respective initializers mean. - Reordering or introducing new fields in the middle of the structure is impossible without adapting all callsites. Convert all sites to instead use designated initializers, which we have started using in our codebase quite a while ago. This allows us to skip any default-initialized fields, gives the reader context by specifying the field names and allows us to reorder or introduce new fields where we want to.

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.

2025-02-28path: drop `git_path()` in favor of `repo_git_path()`Patrick Steinhardt
Remove `git_path()` in favor of the `repo_git_path()` family of functions, which makes the implicit dependency on `the_repository` go away. Note that `git_path()` returned a string allocated via `get_pathname()`, which uses a rotating set of statically allocated buffers. Consequently, callers didn't have to free the returned string. The same isn't true for `repo_common_path()`, so we also have to add logic to free the returned strings. This refactoring also allows us to remove `repo_common_pathv()` as well as `get_pathname()` from the public interface.

The help text now goes to the standard output stream for them. The test in t7600 for "git merge -h" may want to be retired, as the same is covered by t0012 already, but it is specifically testing that the "-h" option gets a response even with a corrupt index file, so for now let's leave it there.

2024-09-03rebase: apply and cleanup autostash when rebase fails to startPhillip Wood
If "git rebase" fails to start after stashing the user's uncommitted changes then it forgets to restore the stashed changes and remove the state directory. To make matters worse, running "git rebase --abort" to apply the stashed changes and cleanup the state directory fails because the state directory only contains the "autostash" file and is missing the "head-name" and "onto" files required by read_basic_state(). Fix this by applying the autostash and removing the state directory if the pre-rebase hook or initial checkout fail. This matches what finish_rebase() does at the end of a successful rebase. If the user modifies any files after the autostash is created it is possible there will be conflicts when the autostash is applied. In that case apply_autostash() saves the stash in a new entry under refs/stash and so it is safe to remove the state directory containing the autostash file. New tests are added to check the autostash is applied and the state directory is removed if the rebase fails to start. Checks are also added to some existing tests in order to ensure there is no state directory left behind when a rebase fails to start and no autostash has been created.

Allow git-cherry-pick(1) to automatically drop redundant commits via a new `--empty` option, similar to the `--empty` options for git-rebase(1) and git-am(1). Includes a soft deprecation of `--keep-redundant-commits` as well as some related docs changes and sequencer code cleanup. * bl/cherry-pick-empty: cherry-pick: add `--empty` for more robust redundant commit handling cherry-pick: enforce `--keep-redundant-commits` incompatibility sequencer: do not require `allow_empty` for redundant commit options sequencer: handle unborn branch with `--allow-empty` rebase: update `--empty=ask` to `--empty=stop` docs: clean up `--empty` formatting in git-rebase(1) and git-am(1) docs: address inaccurate `--empty` default with `--exec`

2024-03-25rebase: update `--empty=ask` to `--empty=stop`Brian Lyles
When git-am(1) got its own `--empty` option in 7c096b8d61 (am: support --empty=<option> to handle empty patches, 2021-12-09), `stop` was used instead of `ask`. `stop` is a more accurate term for describing what really happens, and consistency is good. Update git-rebase(1) to also use `stop`, while keeping `ask` as a deprecated synonym. Update the tests to primarily use `stop`, but also ensure that `ask` is still allowed. In a future commit, we'll be adding a new `--empty` option for git-cherry-pick(1) as well, making the consistency even more relevant.

2024-03-22rebase: use child_process_clear() to cleanJeff King
In the run_am() function, we set up a child_process struct to run "git-am", allocating memory for its args and env strvecs. These are normally cleaned up when we call run_command(). But if we encounter certain errors, we exit the function early and try to clean up ourselves by clearing the am.args field. This leaks the "env" strvec. We should use child_process_clear() instead, which covers both. And more importantly, it future proofs us against the struct ever growing more allocated fields. These are unlikely errors to happen in practice, so they don't actually trigger the leak sanitizer in the tests. But we can add a new test which does exercise one of the paths (and fails SANITIZE=leak without this patch). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2024-03-12strbuf: accept a comment string for strbuf_stripspace()Jeff King
As part of our transition to multi-byte comment characters, let's take a NUL-terminated string pointer for strbuf_stripspace(), rather than a single character. We can continue to support its feature of ignoring comments by accepting a NULL pointer (as opposed to the current behavior of a NUL byte). All of the callers have to be adjusted, but they can all just pass comment_line_str (or NULL). Inside the function we detect comments by comparing the first byte of a line to the comment character. We'll adjust that to use starts_with(), which will match multiple bytes (though for now, of course, we still only allow a single byte, so it's academic).
