2017-03-27submodule.c: port is_submodule_modified to use porcelain 2Stefan Beller
Migrate 'is_submodule_modified' to the new porcelain format of git-status. This conversion attempts to convert faithfully, i.e. the behavior ought to be exactly the same. As the output in the parsing only distinguishes between untracked files and the rest, this is easy to port to the new format, as we only need to identify untracked files and the rest is handled in the "else" case. untracked files are indicated by only a single question mark instead of two question marks, so the conversion is easy.

2017-03-27submodule.c: convert is_submodule_modified to use strbuf_getwholelineStefan Beller
Instead of implementing line reading yet again, make use of our beautiful library function to read one line. By using strbuf_getwholeline instead of strbuf_read, we avoid having to allocate memory for the entire child process output at once. That is, we limit maximum memory usage. Also we can start processing the output as it comes in, no need to wait for all of it. Once we know all information that we care about, we can terminate the child early. In that case we do not care about its exit code as well. By just closing our side of the pipe the child process will get a SIGPIPE signal, which it will not report nor do we report it in finish_command, ac78663b0d (run-command: don't warn on SIGPIPE deaths, 2015-12-29).

2017-03-18submodule: decouple url and submodule interestBrandon Williams
Currently the submodule.<name>.url config option is used to determine if a given submodule is of interest to the user. This ends up being cumbersome in a world where we want to have different submodules checked out in different worktrees or a more generalized mechanism to select which submodules are of interest. In a future with worktree support for submodules, there will be multiple working trees, each of which may only need a subset of the submodules checked out. The URL (which is where the submodule repository can be obtained) should not differ between different working trees. It may also be convenient for users to more easily specify groups of submodules they are interested in as opposed to running "git submodule init <path>" on each submodule they want checked out in their working tree. To this end two config options are introduced, submodule.active and submodule.<name>.active. The submodule.active config holds a pathspec that specifies which submodules should exist in the working tree. The submodule.<name>.active config is a boolean flag used to indicate if that particular submodule should exist in the working tree. Its important to note that submodule.active functions differently than the other configuration options since it takes a pathspec. This allows users to adopt at least two new workflows: 1. Submodules can be grouped with a leading directory, such that a pathspec e.g. 'lib/' would cover all library-ish modules to allow those who are interested in library-ish modules to set "submodule.active = lib/" just once to say any and all modules in 'lib/' are interesting. 2. Once the pathspec-attribute feature is invented, users can label submodules with attributes to group them, so that a broad pathspec with attribute requirements, e.g. ':(attr:lib)', can be used to say any and all modules with the 'lib' attribute are interesting. Since the .gitattributes file, just like the .gitmodules file, is tracked by the superproject, when a submodule moves in the superproject tree, the project can adjust which path gets the attribute in .gitattributes, just like it can adjust which path has the submodule in .gitmodules. Neither of these two additional configuration options solve the problem of wanting different submodules checked out in different worktrees because multiple worktrees share .git/config. Only once per-worktree configurations become a reality can this be solved, but this is a necessary preparatory step for that future. Given these multiple ways to check if a submodule is of interest, the more fine-grained submodule.<name>.active option has the highest order of precedence followed by the pathspec check against submodule.active. To ensure backwards compatibility, if neither of these options are set, git falls back to checking the submodule.<name>.url option to determine if a submodule is interesting.

In later patches we introduce the --recurse-submodule flag for commands that modify the working directory, e.g. git-checkout. It is potentially expensive to check if a submodule needs an update, because a common theme to interact with submodules is to spawn a child process for each interaction.

2017-03-15connect_work_tree_and_git_dir: safely create leading directoriesStefan Beller
In a later patch we'll use connect_work_tree_and_git_dir when the directory for the gitlink file doesn't exist yet. This patch makes connect_work_tree_and_git_dir safe to use for both cases of either the git dir or the working dir missing. To do so, we need to call safe_create_leading_directories[_const] on both directories. However this has to happen before we construct the absolute paths as real_pathdup assumes the directories to be there already. So for both the config file in the git dir as well as the .git link file we need to a) construct the name b) call SCLD c) get the absolute path d) once a-c is done for both we can consume the absolute path to compute the relative path to each other and store those relative paths. The implementation provided here puts a) and b) for both cases first, and then performs c and d after. One of the two users of 'connect_work_tree_and_git_dir' already checked for the directory being there, so we can loose that check as connect_work_tree_and_git_dir handles this functionality now.

2017-03-08real_pathdup(): fix callsites that wanted it to die on errorJohannes Schindelin
In 4ac9006f832 (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path()) pattern to use real_pathdup() directly. The problem with this change is that real_path() calls strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path() causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent and returns NULL instead. The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died with an appropriate error message). Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(), and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would handle NULLs well.

2017-01-26submodule absorbing: fix worktree/gitdir pointers recursively for non-movesStefan Beller
Consider having a submodule 'sub' and a nested submodule at 'sub/nested'. When nested is already absorbed into sub, but sub is not absorbed into its superproject, then we need to fixup the gitfile and core.worktree setting for 'nested' when absorbing 'sub', but we do not need to move its git dir around. Previously 'nested's gitfile contained "gitdir: ../.git/modules/nested"; it has to be corrected to "gitdir: ../../.git/modules/sub1/modules/nested". An alternative I considered to do this work lazily, i.e. when resolving "../.git/modules/nested", we would notice the ".git" being a gitfile linking to another path. That seemed to be robuster by design, but harder to get the implementation right. Maybe we have to do that anyway once we try to have submodules and worktrees working nicely together, but for now just produce 'correct' (i.e. direct) pointers.

2016-12-27submodule: rename and add flags to ok_to_remove_submoduleStefan Beller
In different contexts the question "Is it ok to delete a submodule?" may be answered differently. In 293ab15eea (submodule: teach rm to remove submodules unless they contain a git directory, 2012-09-26) a case was made that we can safely ignore ignored untracked files for removal as we explicitely ask for the removal of the submodule. In a later patch we want to remove submodules even when the user doesn't explicitly ask for it (e.g. checking out a tree-ish in which the submodule doesn't exist). In that case we want to be more careful when it comes to deletion of untracked files. As of this patch it is unclear how this will be implemented exactly, so we'll offer flags in which the caller can specify how the different untracked files ought to be handled. As the flags allow the function to not die on an error when spawning a child process, we need to find an appropriate return code for the case when the child process could not be started. As in that case we cannot tell if the submodule is ok to remove, we'd want to return 'false'. As only 0 is understood as false, rename the function to invert the meaning, i.e. the return code of 0 signals the removal of the submodule is fine, and other values can be used to return a more precise answer what went wrong.

Call strbuf_add_unique_abbrev() to add abbreviated hashes to strbufs instead of taking detours through find_unique_abbrev() and its static buffer. This is shorter and a bit more efficient. 1eb47f167d65d1d305b9c196a1bb40eb96117cb1 already converted six cases, this patch covers three more. A semantic patch for Coccinelle is included for easier checking for new cases that might be introduced in the future.

2016-09-27use strbuf_addstr() instead of strbuf_addf() with "%s", part 2René Scharfe
Replace uses of strbuf_addf() for adding strings with more lightweight strbuf_addstr() calls. This is shorter and makes the intent clearer. bc57b9c0cc5a123365a922fa1831177e3fd607ed already converted three cases, this patch covers two more.
