The return value of write_in_full() is either "-1", or the
requested number of bytes[1]. If we make a partial write
before seeing an error, we still return -1, not a partial
value. This goes back to f6aa66cb95 (write_in_full: really
write in full or return error on disk full., 2007-01-11).
So checking anything except "was the return value negative"
is pointless. And there are a couple of reasons not to do
so:
1. It can do a funny signed/unsigned comparison. If your
"len" is signed (e.g., a size_t) then the compiler will
promote the "-1" to its unsigned variant.
This works out for "!= len" (unless you really were
trying to write the maximum size_t bytes), but is a
bug if you check "< len" (an example of which was fixed
recently in config.c).
We should avoid promoting the mental model that you
need to check the length at all, so that new sites are
not tempted to copy us.
2. Checking for a negative value is shorter to type,
especially when the length is an expression.
3. Linus says so. In d34cf19b89 (Clean up write_in_full()
users, 2007-01-11), right after the write_in_full()
semantics were changed, he wrote:
I really wish every "write_in_full()" user would just
check against "<0" now, but this fixes the nasty and
stupid ones.
Appeals to authority aside, this makes it clear that
writing it this way does not have an intentional
benefit. It's a historical curiosity that we never
bothered to clean up (and which was undoubtedly
cargo-culted into new sites).
So let's convert these obviously-correct cases (this
includes write_str_in_full(), which is just a wrapper for
write_in_full()).
[1] A careful reader may notice there is one way that
write_in_full() can return a different value. If we ask
write() to write N bytes and get a return value that is
_larger_ than N, we could return a larger total. But
besides the fact that this would imply a totally broken
version of write(), it would already invoke undefined
behavior. Our internal remaining counter is an unsigned
size_t, which means that subtracting too many byte will
wrap it around to a very large number. So we'll instantly
begin reading off the end of the buffer, trying to write
gigabytes (or petabytes) of data.

When a file had been commited with CRLF but now .gitattributes say
"* text=auto" (or core.autocrlf is true), the following does not
roundtrip, `git apply` fails:
printf "Added line\r\n" >>file &&
git diff >patch &&
git checkout -- . &&
git apply patch
Before applying the patch, the file from working tree is converted
into the index format (clean filter, CRLF conversion, ...). Here,
when commited with CRLF, the line endings should not be converted.
Note that `git apply --index` or `git apply --cache` doesn't call
convert_to_git() because the source material is already in index
format.
Analyze the patch if there is a) any context line with CRLF, or b)
if any line with CRLF is to be removed. In this case the patch file
`patch` has mixed line endings, for a) it looks like this:
diff --git a/one b/one
index 533790e..c30dea8 100644
--- a/one
+++ b/one
@@ -1 +1,2 @@
a\r
+b\r
And for b) it looks like this:
diff --git a/one b/one
index 533790e..485540d 100644
--- a/one
+++ b/one
@@ -1 +1 @@
-a\r
+b\r
If `git apply` detects that the patch itself has CRLF, (look at the
line " a\r" or "-a\r" above), the new flag crlf_in_old is set in
"struct patch" and two things will happen:
- read_old_data() will not convert CRLF into LF by calling
convert_to_git(..., SAFE_CRLF_KEEP_CRLF);
- The WS_CR_AT_EOL bit is set in the "white space rule",
CRLF are no longer treated as white space.
While at there, make it clear that read_old_data() in apply.c knows
what it wants convert_to_git() to do with respect to CRLF. In fact,
this codepath is about applying a patch to a file in the filesystem,
which may not exist in the index, or may exist but may not match
what is recorded in the index, or in the extreme case, we may not
even be in a Git repository. If convert_to_git() peeked at the
index while doing its work, it *would* be a bug.
Pass NULL instead of &the_index to convert_to_git() to make sure we
catch future bugs to clarify this.
Update the test in t4124: split one test case into 3:
- Detect the " a\r" line in the patch
- Detect the "-a\r" line in the patch
- Use LF in repo and CLRF in the worktree.

sum(1) is a command for calculating checksums of the contents of files.
It was part of early editions of Unix ("Research Unix", 1972/1973, [1]).
cksum(1) appeared in 4.4BSD (1993) as a replacement [2], and became part
of POSIX.1-2008 [3]. OpenBSD 5.6 (2014) removed sum(1).
We only use sum(1) in t1002 to check for changes in three files. On
MinGW we use md5sum(1) instead. We could switch to the standard command
cksum(1) for all platforms; MinGW comes with GNU coreutils now, which
provides sum(1), cksum(1) and md5sum(1). Use our standard method for
checking for file changes instead: test_cmp.
It's more convenient because it shows differences nicely, it's faster on
MinGW because we have a special implementation there based only on
shell-internal commands, it's simpler as it allows us to avoid stripping
out unnecessary entries from the checksum file using grep(1), and it's
more consistent with the rest of the test suite.
We already compare changed files with their expected new contents using
diff(1), so we don't need to check with "test_must_fail test_cmp" if
they differ from their original state. A later patch could convert the
direct diff(1) calls to test_cmp as well.
With all sum(1) calls gone, remove the MinGW-specific implementation
from test-lib.sh as well.

When running, e.g., `git -c alias.bar=foo bar`, we expand the alias and
execute `git-foo` as a dashed external. This is true even if git foo is
a builtin. That is on purpose, and is motivated in a comment which was
added in commit 441981bc ("git: simplify environment save/restore
logic", 2016-01-26).
Shortly before we launch a dashed external, and unless we have already
found out whether we should use a pager, we check `pager.foo`. This was
added in commit 92058e4d ("support pager.* for external commands",
2011-08-18). If the dashed external is a builtin, this does not match
that commit's intention and is arguably wrong, since it would be cleaner
if we let the "dashed external builtin" handle `pager.foo`.
This has not mattered in practice, but a recent patch taught `git-tag`
to ignore `pager.tag` under certain circumstances. But, when started
using an alias, it doesn't get the chance to do so, as outlined above.
That recent patch added a test to document this breakage.
Do not check `pager.foo` before launching a builtin as a dashed
external, i.e., if we recognize the name of the external as a builtin.

Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as

Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will
probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work,
at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`.
Use the mechanisms introduced in two earlier patches to ignore
`pager.tag` in git.c and let the `git tag` builtin handle it on its own.
Only respect `pager.tag` when running in list-mode.
There is a window between where the pager is started before and after
this patch. This means that early errors can behave slightly different
before and after this patch. Since operation-parsing has to happen
inside this window, this can be seen with `git -c pager.tag="echo pager
is used" tag -l --unknown-option`. This change in paging-behavior should
be acceptable since it only affects erroneous usages.
Update the documentation and update tests.
If an alias is used to run `git tag -a`, then `pager.tag` will still be
respected. Document this known breakage. It will be fixed in a later

use "no arguments" and --contains, since those imply -l. (There are
more arguments which imply -l, but using these two should be enough.)
Third, use -a as a representative for "not -l". Actually, the tests use
`git tag -am` so no editor is launched, but that is irrelevant, since we
