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.

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

"git add -p" learned a new mode that allows the user to revisit a
file that was already dealt with.
* aa/add-p-no-auto-advance:
add-patch: allow interfile navigation when selecting hunks
add-patch: allow all-or-none application of patches
add-patch: modify patch_update_file() signature
interactive -p: add new `--auto-advance` flag
|
|
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.

The idea of this extension is to abstract away the submodule gitdir
path implementation: everyone is expected to use the config and not
worry about how the path is computed internally, either in git or
other implementations.
With this extension enabled, the submodule.<name>.gitdir repo config
becomes the single source of truth for all submodule gitdir paths.
The submodule.<name>.gitdir config is added automatically for all new
submodules when this extension is enabled.
Git will throw an error if the extension is enabled and a config is
missing, advising users how to migrate. Migration is manual for now.
E.g. to add a missing config entry for an existing "foo" module:
git config submodule.foo.gitdir .git/modules/foo

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.

When no subcommand is specified to "reflog", we assume "show" [1]:
$ git reflog -h
usage: git reflog [show] [<log-options>] [<ref>]
...
This implicit "show" is not being completed correctly:
$ git checkout -b default
$ git reflog def<TAB><TAB>
... no completion options ...
The expected result is:
$ git reflog default
This happens because we're completing references after seeing a valid
subcommand in the command line. This prevents the implicit "show" from
working properly, but also introduces a new problem: it keeps offering
subcommand options when the subcommand is implicit:
$ git checkout -b explore
$ git reflog default ex<TAB>
...
$ git reflog default expire
The expected result is:
$ git reflog default explore
To fix this, complete references even if no subcommand is present, or in
other words when the subcommand is implicit "show".
Also, only include completion options for subcommands when completing
the right position in the command line.

In a previous commit we removed some hardcoded config variable names from
function __git_complete_config_variable_name in the completion script by
introducing a new function,
__git_compute_first_level_config_vars_for_section.
The remaining hardcoded config variables are "second level"
configuration variables, meaning 'branch.<name>.upstream',
'remote.<name>.url', etc. where <name> is a user-defined name.
Making use of the new existing --config flag to 'git help', add a new
function, __git_compute_second_level_config_vars_for_section. This
function takes as argument a config section name and computes the
corresponding second-level config variables, i.e. those that contain a
'<' which indicates the start of a placeholder. Note that as in
__git_compute_first_level_config_vars_for_section added previsouly, we
use indirect expansion instead of associative arrays to stay compatible
with Bash 3 on which macOS is stuck for licensing reasons.
As explained in the previous commit, we use the existing pattern in the
completion script of using global variables to cache the list of
variables for each section.
Use this new function and the variables it defines in
__git_complete_config_variable_name to remove hardcoded config
variables, and add a test to verify the new function. Use a single
'case' for all sections with second-level variables names, since the
code for each of them is now exactly the same.
Adjust the name of a test added in a previous commit to reflect that it
now tests the added function.

The function __git_complete_config_variable_name in the Bash completion
script hardcodes several config variable names. These variables are
those in config sections where user-defined names can appear, such as
"branch.<name>". These sections are treated first by the case statement,
and the two last "catch all" cases are used for other sections, making
use of the __git_compute_config_vars and __git_compute_config_sections
function, which omit listing any variables containing wildcards or
placeholders. Having hardcoded config variables introduces the risk of
the completion code becoming out of sync with the actual config
variables accepted by Git.
To avoid these hardcoded config variables, introduce a new function,
__git_compute_first_level_config_vars_for_section, making use of the
existing __git_config_vars variable. This function takes as argument a
config section name and computes the matching "first level" config
variables for that section, i.e. those _not_ containing any placeholder,
like 'branch.autoSetupMerge, 'remote.pushDefault', etc. Use this
function and the variables it defines in the 'branch.*', 'remote.*' and
'submodule.*' switches of the case statement instead of hardcoding the
corresponding config variables. Note that we use indirect expansion to
create a variable for each section, instead of using a single
associative array indexed by section names, because associative arrays
are not supported in Bash 3, on which macOS is stuck for licensing
reasons.
Use the existing pattern in the completion script of using global
variables to cache the list of config variables for each section. The
rationale for such caching is explained in eaa4e6ee2a (Speed up bash
completion loading, 2009-11-17), and the current approach to using and
defining them via 'test -n' is explained in cf0ff02a38 (completion: work
around zsh option propagation bug, 2012-02-02).
Adjust the name of one of the tests added in the previous commit,
reflecting that it now also tests the new function.

The `__git_pseudoref_exists ()` helper function back to git-rev-parse(1)
in case the reftable backend is in use. This is not in the same spirit
as the simple existence check that the "files" backend does though,
because there we only check for the pseudo-ref to exist with `test -f`.
With git-rev-parse(1) we not only check for existence, but also verify
that the pseudo-ref resolves to an object, which may not be the case
when the pseudo-ref points to an unborn branch.
Fix this issue by using `git show-ref --exists` instead. Note that we do
not have to silence stdout anymore as git-show-ref(1) will not print

In 44dbb3bf29 (completion: support pseudoref existence checks for
reftables, 2023-12-19), we have extended the Bash completion script to
support future ref backends better by using git-rev-parse(1) to check
for pseudo-ref existence. This conversion has introduced a bug, because
even though we pass `--quiet` to git-rev-parse(1) it would still output
the resolved object ID of the ref in question if it exists.
Fix this by redirecting its stdout to `/dev/null` and add a test that
catches this behaviour. Note that the test passes even without the fix
for the "files" backend because we parse pseudo refs via the filesystem
directly in that case. But the test will fail with the "reftable"
backend.

It is tempting to think of "files and directories" of the current
directory as valid inputs to the add and set subcommands of git
sparse-checkout. However, in non-cone mode, they often aren't and using
them as potential completions leads to *many* forms of confusion:
Issue #1. It provides the *wrong* files and directories.
For
git sparse-checkout add
we always want to add files and directories not currently in our sparse
checkout, which means we want file and directories not currently present
in the current working tree. Providing the files and directories
currently present is thus always wrong.
For
git sparse-checkout set
we have a similar problem except in the subset of cases where we are
trying to narrow our checkout to a strict subset of what we already
have. That is not a very common scenario, especially since it often
does not even happen to be true for the first use of the command; for
years we required users to create a sparse-checkout via
git sparse-checkout init
git sparse-checkout set <args...>
(or use a clone option that did the init step for you at clone time).
The init command creates a minimal sparse-checkout with just the
top-level directory present, meaning the set command has to be used to
expand the checkout. Thus, only in a special and perhaps unusual cases
would any of the suggestions from normal file and directory completion
be appropriate.
Issue #2: Suggesting patterns that lead to warnings is unfriendly.
If the user specifies any regular file and omits the leading '/', then
the sparse-checkout command will warn the user that their command is
problematic and suggest they use a leading slash instead.
Issue #3: Completion gets confused by leading '/', and provides wrong paths.
Users often want to anchor their patterns to the toplevel of the
repository, especially when listing individual files. There are a
number of reasons for this, but notably even sparse-checkout encourages
them to do so (as noted above). However, if users do so (via adding a
leading '/' to their pattern), then bash completion will interpret the
leading slash not as a request for a path at the toplevel of the
repository, but as a request for a path at the root of the filesytem.
That means at best that completion cannot help with such paths, and if
it does find any completions, they are almost guaranteed to be wrong.
Issue #4: Suggesting invalid patterns from subdirectories is unfriendly.
There is no per-directory equivalent to .gitignore with
sparse-checkouts. There is only a single worktree-global
$GIT_DIR/info/sparse-checkout file. As such, paths to files must be
specified relative to the toplevel of a repository. Providing
suggestions of paths that are relative to the current working directory,
as bash completion defaults to, is wrong when the current working
directory is not the worktree toplevel directory.
Issue #5: Paths with special characters will be interpreted incorrectly
The entries in the sparse-checkout file are patterns, not paths. While
most paths also qualify as patterns (though even in such cases it would
be better for users to not use them directly but prefix them with a
leading '/'), there are a variety of special characters that would need
special escaping beyond the normal shell escaping: '*', '?', '\', '[',
']', and any leading '#' or '!'. If completion suggests any such paths,
users will likely expect them to be treated as an exact path rather than
as a pattern that might match some number of files other than 1.
However, despite the first four issues, we can note that _if_ users are
using tab completion, then they are probably trying to specify a path in
the index. As such, we transform their argument into a top-level-rooted
pattern that matches such a file. For example, if they type:
git sparse-checkout add Make<TAB>
we could "complete" to
git sparse-checkout add /Makefile
or, if they ran from the Documentation/technical/ subdirectory:
git sparse-checkout add m<TAB>
we could "complete" it to:
git sparse-checkout add /Documentation/technical/multi-pack-index.txt
Note in both cases I use "complete" in quotes, because we actually add
characters both before and after the argument in question, so we are
kind of abusing "bash completions" to be "bash completions AND
beginnings".
The fifth issue is a bit stickier, especially when you consider that we
not only need to deal with escaping issues because of special meanings
of patterns in sparse-checkout & gitignore files, but also that we need
to consider escaping issues due to ls-files needing to sometimes quote
or escape characters, and because the shell needs to escape some
characters. The multiple interacting forms of escaping could get ugly;
this patch makes no attempt to do so and simply documents that we
decided to not deal with those corner cases for now but at least get the
common cases right.

Recently we started to tell users to spell ": git foo ;" with
space(s) around 'foo' for an alias to be completed similarly
to the 'git foo' command. It however is easy to also allow users to
spell it in a more natural way with the semicolon attached to 'foo',
i.e. ": git foo;". Also, add a comment to note that 'git' is optional
and writing ": foo;" would complete the alias just fine.

The completion script (in contrib/) has been taught to treat the
"-t" option to "git checkout" and "git switch" just like the
"--track" option, to complete remote-tracking branches.
* js/complete-checkout-t:
completion(switch/checkout): treat --track and -t the same
|
|
When `git switch --track ` is to be completed, only remote refs are
eligible because that is what the `--track` option targets.
And when the short-hand `-t` is used instead, the same _should_ happen.
Let's make it so.
Note that the bug exists both in the completions of `switch` and
`completion`, even if it manifests in slightly different ways: While
the completion of `git switch -t ` will not even look at remote refs,
the completion of `git checkout -t ` will look at both remote _and_
local refs. Both should look only at remote refs.

We have a small helper function called "verbose", with the idea that you
can write:
verbose foo
to get a message to stderr when the "foo" command fails, even if it does
not produce any output itself. This goes back to 8ad1652418 (t5304: use
helper to report failure of "test foo = bar", 2014-10-10). It does work,
but overall it has not been a big success for two reasons:
1. Test writers have to remember to put it there (and the resulting
test code is longer as a result).
2. It doesn't handle the opposite case (we expect "foo" to fail, but
it succeeds), leading to inconsistencies in tests (which you can
see in many hunks of this patch, e.g. ones involving "has_cr").
Most importantly, we added a136f6d8ff (test-lib.sh: support -x option
for shell-tracing, 2014-10-10) at the same time, and it does roughly the
same thing. The output is not quite as succinct as "verbose", and you
have to watch out for stray shell-traces ending up in stderr. But it
solves both of the problems above, and has clearly become the preferred
tool.
Let's consider the "verbose" function a failed experiment and remove the
last few callers (which are all many years old, and have been dwindling
as we remove them from scripts we touch for other reasons). It will be
one less thing for new test writers to see and wonder if they should be
using themselves.

If GIT_COMPLETION_IGNORE_CASE is set, --ignore-case will be added to
git for-each-ref calls so that refs can be matched case insensitively,
even when running on case sensitive filesystems.

Add missing documentation for "include" and "includeIf" features in
"git config" file format, which incidentally teaches the command
line completion to include them in its offerings.
* mb/config-document-include:
config.txt: document include, includeIf

Git config's tab completion does not yet know about the "include"
and "includeIf" sections, nor the related "path" variable.
Add a description for these two sections in
'Documentation/config/includeif.txt', which points to git-config's
documentation, specifically the "Includes" and "Conditional Includes"
subsections.
As a side effect, tab completion can successfully complete the
'include', 'includeIf', and 'include.add' expressions.
This effect is tested by two new ad-hoc tests.
Variable completion only works for "include" for now.

Test regression fix.
* ld/sparse-index-bash-completion:
t9902: split test to run on appropriate systems
|
|
The "FUNNYNAMES" test prerequisite passes on Cygwin, as the Cygwin
file system interface has a workaround for the underlying operating
system's lack of support for tabs, newlines or quotes. However, it does
not add support for backslash, which is treated as a directory
separator, meaning one of the tests added by 48803821b1 ("completion:
handle unusual characters for sparse-checkout", 2022-02-07) will fail on
Cygwin.
To avoid this failure while still getting maximal test coverage, split
that test into two: test handling of paths that include tabs on anything
that has the FUNNYNAMES prerequisite, but skip testing handling of paths
that include backslashes unless both FUNNYNAMES is set and the system is
not Cygwin.
It might be nice to have more granularity than "FUNNYNAMES" and its
sibling "FUNNIERNAMES" provide, so that tests could be run based on
specific individual characters supported by the file system being
tested, but that seems like it would make the prerequisite checks in
this area much more verbose for very little gain.

The command line completion script (in contrib/) learned to
complete all Git subcommands, including the ones that are normally
hidden, when GIT_COMPLETION_SHOW_ALL_COMMANDS is used.
