53bbcfbde7 rebase -i: implement the main part of interactive rebase as a builtin
This rewrites the part of interactive rebase which initializes the
basic state, make the script and complete the action, as a buitin, named
git-rebase--interactive2 for now.  Others modes (`--continue`,
`--edit-todo`, etc.) will be rewritten in the next commit.

git-rebase--interactive.sh is modified to call git-rebase--interactive2
instead of git-rebase--helper.

ff417260cf make show-index a builtin
The git-show-index command is built as its own separate
program. There's really no good reason for this, and it
means we waste extra space on disk (and CPU time running the
linker). Let's fold it in to the main binary as a builtin.

The history here is actually a bit amusing. The program
itself is mostly self-contained, and doesn't even use our
normal pack index code. In a5031214c4 (slim down "git
show-index", 2010-01-21), we even stopped using xmalloc() so
that it could avoid libgit.a entirely. But then 040a655116
(cleanup: use internal memory allocation wrapper functions
everywhere, 2011-10-06) switched that back to xmalloc, which
later become ALLOC_ARRAY().

Making it a builtin should give us the best of both worlds:
no wasted space and no need to avoid the usual patterns.

3301d36b29 completion: add and use --list-cmds=alias
By providing aliases via --list-cmds=, we could simplify command
collection code in the script. We only issue one git command. Before
this patch that is "git config", after it's "git --list-cmds=". In
"git help" completion case we actually reduce one "git" process (for
getting guides) but that call was added in this series so it does not
really count.

A couple of bash functions are removed because they are not needed
anymore. __git_compute_all_commands() and $__git_all_commands stay
because they are still needed for completing pager.* config and
without "alias" group, the result is still cacheable.

There is a slight (good) change in _git_help() with this patch: before
"git help <tab>" shows external commands (as in _not_ part of git) as
well as part of $__git_all_commands. We have finer control over
command listing now and can exclude that because we can't provide a
man page for external commands anyway.

6bb2dc0b94 completion: implement and use --list-cmds=main,others
This is part of the effort to break down and provide commands by
category in machine-readable form. This could be helpful later on when
completion script switches to use --list-cmds for selecting
completable commands. It would be much easier for the user to choose
to complete _all_ commands instead of the default selection by passing
different values to --list-cmds in git-completino.bash.

While at there, replace "git help -a" in git-completion.bash with
--list-cmds since it's better suited for this task.

7213c28818 git: add -P as a short option for --no-pager
It is possible to configure 'less', the pager, to use an alternate
screen to show the content, for example, by setting LESS=RS in the
environment. When it is closed in this configuration, it switches
back to the original screen, and all content is gone.

It is not uncommon to request that the output remains visible in
the terminal. For this, the option --no-pager can be used. But
it is a bit cumbersome to type, even when command completion is
available. Provide a short option, -P, to make the option more
easily accessible.

226c0ddd0d exec_cmd: RUNTIME_PREFIX on some POSIX systems
Enable Git to resolve its own binary location using a variety of
OS-specific and generic methods, including:

- procfs via "/proc/self/exe" (Linux)
- _NSGetExecutablePath (Darwin)
- KERN_PROC_PATHNAME sysctl on BSDs.
- argv0, if absolute (all, including Windows).

This is used to enable RUNTIME_PREFIX support for non-Windows systems,
notably Linux and Darwin. When configured with RUNTIME_PREFIX, Git will
do a best-effort resolution of its executable path and automatically use
this as its "exec_path" for relative helper and data lookups, unless
explicitly overridden.

Small incidental formatting cleanup of "exec_cmd.c".

ed10cb952d serve: introduce git-serve
Introduce git-serve, the base server for protocol version 2.

Protocol version 2 is intended to be a replacement for Git's current
wire protocol.  The intention is that it will be a simpler, less
wasteful protocol which can evolve over time.

Protocol version 2 improves upon version 1 by eliminating the initial
ref advertisement.  In its place a server will export a list of
capabilities and commands which it supports in a capability
advertisement.  A client can then request that a particular command be
executed by providing a number of capabilities and command specific
parameters.  At the completion of a command, a client can request that
another command be executed or can terminate the connection by sending a
flush packet.

32888b8fd5 config: respect pager.config in list/get-mode only
Similar to de121ffe5 (tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only,
2017-08-02), use the DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG-mechanism to only respect
`pager.config` when we are listing or "get"ing config.

We have several getters and some are guaranteed to give at most one line
of output. Paging all getters including those could be convenient from a
documentation point-of-view. The downside would be that a misconfigured
or not so modern pager might wait for user interaction before
terminating. Let's instead respect the config for precisely those
getters which may produce more than one line of output.

`--get-urlmatch` may or may not produce multiple lines of output,
depending on the exact usage. Let's not try to recognize the two modes,
but instead make `--get-urlmatch` always respect the config. Analyzing
the detailed usage might be trivial enough here, but could establish a
precedent that we will never be able to enforce throughout the codebase
and that will just open a can of worms.

This fixes the failing test added in the previous commit. Also adapt the
test for whether `git config foo.bar bar` and `git config --get foo.bar`
respects `pager.config`.

not use an editor, so we should page". Another, the one taken by this

with the approach of the series on `pager.tag` and in particular the
wording in Documentation/git-tag.txt, which this commit reuses for
git-branch.txt.

d4e93836a6 Merge branch 'jk/no-optional-locks'
Some commands (most notably "git status") makes an opportunistic

option can be passed to Git to disable them.

27344d6a6c git: add --no-optional-locks option
Some tools like IDEs or fancy editors may periodically run
commands like "git status" in the background to keep track
of the state of the repository. Some of these commands may
refresh the index and write out the result in an
opportunistic way: if they can get the index lock, then they
update the on-disk index with any updates they find. And if
not, then their in-core refresh is lost and just has to be
recomputed by the next caller.

But taking the index lock may conflict with other operations
in the repository. Especially ones that the user is doing
themselves, which _aren't_ opportunistic. In other words,
"git status" knows how to back off when somebody else is
holding the lock, but other commands don't know that status
would be happy to drop the lock if somebody else wanted it.

There are a couple possible solutions:

  1. Have some kind of "pseudo-lock" that allows other
     commands to tell status that they want the lock.

     This is likely to be complicated and error-prone to
     implement (and maybe even impossible with just
     dotlocks to work from, as it requires some
     inter-process communication).

  2. Avoid background runs of commands like "git status"
     that want to do opportunistic updates, preferring
     instead plumbing like diff-files, etc.

     This is awkward for a couple of reasons. One is that
     "status --porcelain" reports a lot more about the
     repository state than is available from individual
     plumbing commands. And two is that we actually _do_
     want to see the refreshed index. We just don't want to
     take a lock or write out the result. Whereas commands
     like diff-files expect us to refresh the index
     separately and write it to disk so that they can depend
     on the result. But that write is exactly what we're
     trying to avoid.

  3. Ask "status" not to lock or write the index.

     This is easy to implement. The big downside is that any
     work done in refreshing the index for such a call is
     lost when the process exits. So a background process
     may end up re-hashing a changed file multiple times
     until the user runs a command that does an index
     refresh themselves.

This patch implements the option 3. The idea (and the test)
is largely stolen from a Git for Windows patch by Johannes
Schindelin, 67e5ce7f63 (status: offer *not* to lock the
index and update it, 2016-08-12). The twist here is that
instead of making this an option to "git status", it becomes
a "git" option and matching environment variable.

The reason there is two-fold:

  1. An environment variable is carried through to
     sub-processes. And whether an invocation is a
     background process or not should apply to the whole
     process tree. So you could do "git --no-optional-locks
     foo", and if "foo" is a script or alias that calls
     "status", you'll still get the effect.

  2. There may be other programs that want the same
     treatment.

     I've punted here on finding more callers to convert,
     since "status" is the obvious one to call as a repeated
     background job. But "git diff"'s opportunistic refresh
     of the index may be a good candidate.

The test is taken from 67e5ce7f63, and it's worth repeating
Johannes's explanation:

  Note that the regression test added in this commit does
  not *really* verify that no index.lock file was written;
  that test is not possible in a portable way. Instead, we
  verify that .git/index is rewritten *only* when `git
  status` is run without `--no-optional-locks`.

5aa0b6c506 Merge branch 'bw/grep-recurse-submodules'
"git grep --recurse-submodules" has been reworked to give a more
consistent output across submodule boundary (and do its thing
without having to fork a separate process).

* bw/grep-recurse-submodules:
  grep: recurse in-process using 'struct repository'
  submodule: merge repo_read_gitmodules and gitmodules_config
  submodule: check for unmerged .gitmodules outside of config parsing
  submodule: check for unstaged .gitmodules outside of config parsing
  submodule: remove fetch.recursesubmodules from submodule-config parsing
  submodule: remove submodule.fetchjobs from submodule-config parsing
  config: add config_from_gitmodules
  cache.h: add GITMODULES_FILE macro
  repository: have the_repository use the_index
  repo_read_index: don't discard the index

595d59e2b5 git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as dashed external
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.
Change the test to use `test_expect_success`.

de121ffe57 tag: respect pager.tag in list-mode only
Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as
"Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal.
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
commit. Add a similar test for `-l`, which works.

033fe3d92c git.c: provide setup_auto_pager()
The previous patch introduced a way for builtins to declare that they
will take responsibility for handling the `pager.foo`-config item. (See
the commit message of that patch for why that could be useful.)

Provide setup_auto_pager(), which builtins can call in order to handle
`pager.<cmd>`, including possibly starting the pager. Make this function
don't do anything if a pager has already been started, as indicated by
use_pager or pager_in_use().

Whenever this function is called from a builtin, git.c will already have
called commit_pager_choice(). Since commit_pager_choice() treats the
special value -1 as "punt" or "not yet decided", it is not a problem
that we might end up calling commit_pager_choice() once in git.c and
once (or more) in the builtin. Make the new function use -1 in the same
way and document it as "punt".

Don't add any users of setup_auto_pager just yet, one will follow in
a later patch.

c409824cc2 git.c: let builtins opt for handling pager.foo themselves
Before launching a builtin git foo and unless mechanisms with precedence
are in use, we check for and handle the `pager.foo` config. This is done
without considering exactly how git foo is being used, and indeed, git.c
cannot (and should not) know what the arguments to git foo are supposed
to achieve.

In practice this means that, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag`
results in errors such as "Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal"
and a garbled terminal. 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`.

To allow individual builtins to make more informed decisions about when
to respect `pager.foo`, introduce a flag DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG. If the flag
is set, do not check `pager.foo`.

Do not check for DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG in `execv_dashed_external()`. That
call site is arguably wrong, although in a way that is not yet visible,
and will be changed in a slightly different direction in a later patch.

Don't add any users of DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG just yet, one will follow in a
later patch.

a9bcf6586d alias: use the early config machinery to expand aliases
Instead of discovering the .git/ directory, reading the config and then
trying to painstakingly reset all the global state if we did not find a
matching alias, let's use the early config machinery instead.

It may look like unnecessary work to discover the .git/ directory in the
early config machinery and then call setup_git_directory_gently() in the
case of a shell alias, repeating the very same discovery *again*.
However, we have to do this as the early config machinery takes pains
*not* to touch any global state, while shell aliases expect a possibly
changed working directory and at least the GIT_PREFIX and GIT_DIR
variables to be set.

This change also fixes a known issue where Git tried to read the pager
config from an incorrect path in a subdirectory of a Git worktree if an
alias expanded to a shell command.

4557f1add2 rebase--helper: add a builtin helper for interactive rebases
Git's interactive rebase is still implemented as a shell script, despite
its complexity. This implies that it suffers from the portability point
of view, from lack of expressibility, and of course also from
performance. The latter issue is particularly serious on Windows, where
we pay a hefty price for relying so much on POSIX.

Unfortunately, being such a huge shell script also means that we missed
the train when it would have been relatively easy to port it to C, and
instead piled feature upon feature onto that poor script that originally
never intended to be more than a slightly pimped cherry-pick in a loop.

To open the road toward better performance (in addition to all the other
benefits of C over shell scripts), let's just start *somewhere*.

The approach taken here is to add a builtin helper that at first intends
to take care of the parts of the interactive rebase that are most
affected by the performance penalties mentioned above.

In particular, after we spent all those efforts on preparing the sequencer
to process rebase -i's git-rebase-todo scripts, we implement the `git
rebase -i --continue` functionality as a new builtin, git-rebase--helper.

Once that is in place, we can work gradually on tackling the rest of the
technical debt.

Note that the rebase--helper needs to learn about the transient
--ff/--no-ff options of git-rebase, as the corresponding flag is not
persisted to, and re-read from, the state directory.
