When we add or set new branches (e.g. by `git remote add -f` or
`git remote set-branches`) we do not check for error codes when
writing the branches to the configuration file. When persisting
the configuration failed we are left with a remote that has none
or not all of the branches that should have been set without
notifying the user.

Both remote add and remote rename use a slightly different hand-rolled
check if the remote exits. The hand-rolled check may have some subtle
cases in which it might fail to detect when a remote already exists.
One such case was fixed in fb86e32 ("git remote: allow adding remotes
agreeing with url.<...>.insteadOf"). Another case is when a remote is
configured as follows:
[remote "foo"]
vcs = bar
If we try to run `git remote add foo bar` with the above remote
configuration, git segfaults. This change fixes it.
In addition, git remote rename $existing foo with the configuration for
foo as above silently succeeds, even though foo already exists,
modifying its configuration. With this patch it fails with "remote foo
already exists".

When converting the git remote command to a builtin in 211c89 ("Make
git-remote a builtin"), a few calls to check if a remote exists were
converted from:
if (!exists $remote->{$name}) {
[...]
to:
remote = remote_get(argv[1]);
if (!remote)
[...]
The new check is not quite correct, because remote_get() never returns
NULL if a name is given. This leaves us with the somewhat cryptic error
message "error: Could not remove config section 'remote.test'", if we
are trying to remove a remote that does not exist, or a similar error if
we try to rename a remote.
Use the remote_is_configured() function to check whether the remote
actually exists, and die with a more sensible error message ("No such

Make use of the origin member of struct remote instead, which indicates

It's an anti-pattern to assign the result of git_path to a

case, we feed the result to unlink_or_warn immediately
afterwards, so it's OK. However, it's nice to avoid
assignment entirely, which makes it more obvious that
there's no bug.
We can just pass the result directly to unlink_or_warn,
which is a known-simple function. As a bonus, the code flow

This slightly changes how errors are reported. The old and new code
both report errors that come from repack_without_refs() the same way.
But if an error occurs within delete_ref(), the old version only
emitted an error within delete_ref() without further comment. The new
version (in delete_refs()) still emits that error, but then follows it
up with
error(_("could not remove reference %s"), refname)
The "could not remove reference" error originally came from a similar
message in remove_branches() (from builtin/remote.c).
This is an improvement, because the error from delete_ref() (which
usually comes from ref_transaction_commit()) can be pretty low-level,
like
Cannot lock ref '%s': unable to resolve reference %s: %s
where the last "%s" is the original strerror.
In any case, I don't think we need to sweat the details too much,
because these errors should only ever be seen in the case of a broken
repository or a race between two processes; i.e., only in pretty rare
and anomalous situations.

Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid"
parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1".
To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap
old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called
"each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new
interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be
wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be
used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter().
This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple,
mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref"
family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be
rewritten one by one to use the new interface.

When adding a remote, we make sure that the remote does not exist

added, the code would assume that the remote exists already.
Let's allow adding remotes when there is a url.<...>.insteadOf setting
when both the name and the URL agree with the remote to be added.
It might seem like a mistake to compare against remote->url[0] without
verifying that remote->url_nr >=1, but at this point a missing URL has

That means that "git remote rm" and "git remote prune" can fail

When stripping a suffix like:

buf = xmemdupz(str, strlen(str) - 3);
we can instead use strip_suffix to avoid the constant 3,
which must match the literal "foo" (we sometimes use
strlen("foo") instead, but that means we are repeating
ourselves). The example above becomes:
if (strip_suffix(str, "foo", &len))
buf = xmemdupz(str, len);
This also saves a strlen(), since we calculate the string
length when detecting the suffix.
Note that in some cases we also switch from xstrndup to
xmemdupz, which saves a further strlen call.

The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content
past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While
this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use
for two reasons:
1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string
as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable.
For example:
tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo");
if (tmp)
buf = tmp;
2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as
you need extra parentheses to silence compiler
warnings. For example:
if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"))
/* do something with cp */
Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and
we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line
of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past
the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra
strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but
means we are repeating ourselves).
This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean,
and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the
prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This
lets you write:
if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg))
do_foo(arg);
else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg))
do_bar(arg);

suffixcmp() with nearly the same implementation as postfixcmp()
that already existed since commit 211c8968 (Make git-remote a
builtin, 29 Feb 2008).
The only difference between the two implementations is that,
when the string is smaller than the suffix, one implementation
returns 1 while the other one returns -1.
But, as postfixcmp() is only used to compare for equality, the
distinction does not matter and does not affect the correctness of
this patch.
As postfixcmp() has always been static in builtin/remote.c
and is used nowhere else, it makes more sense to remove it
and use suffixcmp() instead in builtin/remote.c, rather than

Adds some subcommands that were not listed in "git remote --help"
usage strings.
As an independent follow-up, we may want to rethink how the overall

The canonical order of command line arguments is always to have dashed
commands before other parameters, but the "git remote set-branches"
subcommand was described to take "name" before an optional "--add".

The reason why the trailing slash is needed is obvious. refs/stash and
HEAD are not namespace, but complete refs. Do full string compare on them.

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a shared buffer and can be
overwritten by the next resolve_ref() calls. Callers need to
pay attention, not to keep the pointer when the next call happens.
Rename with "_unsafe" suffix to warn developers (or reviewers) before
introducing new call sites.
This patch is generated using the following command
git grep -l 'resolve_ref(' -- '*.[ch]'|xargs sed -i 's/resolve_ref(/resolve_ref_unsafe(/g'

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not
safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens,
the buffer may be changed. Many call sites though do not care about
this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not.
Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref()
calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on
to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

Conflicts:
remote.c
If the user gave us refspecs on the command line, we should use those
when deciding whether to prune a ref instead of relying on the
refspecs in the config.
Previously, running
git fetch --prune origin refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
would delete every other ref under the origin namespace because we
were using the refspec to filter the available refs but using the
configured refspec to figure out if a ref had been deleted on the
remote. This is clearly the wrong thing to do.
Change prune_refs and get_stale_heads to simply accept a list of
references and a list of refspecs. The caller of either function needs
to decide what refspecs should be used to decide whether a ref is
stale.

'git remote rename' will only update the remote's fetch refspec if it
looks like a default one. If the remote has no default fetch refspec,
as in
[remote "origin"]
url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/upstream/*
we would not update the fetch refspec and even if there is a ref
called "refs/remotes/origin/master", we should not rename it, since it
was not created by fetching from the remote.

When renaming a remote, we also try to update the fetch refspec
accordingly, but only if it has the default format. For others, such
as refs/heads/master:refs/heads/origin, we are conservative and leave
it untouched. Let's give the user a warning about refspecs that are
not updated, so he can manually update the config if necessary.

When renaming a remote called 'o' using 'git remote rename o foo', git
should also rename any remote-tracking branches for the remote. This
does happen, but any remote-tracking branches starting with
'refs/remotes/o', such as 'refs/remotes/origin/bar', will also be
renamed (to 'refs/remotes/foorigin/bar' in this case).
Fix it by simply matching one more character, up to the slash
following the remote name.

When renaming a remote whose name is contained in a configured fetch
refspec for that remote, we currently replace the first occurrence of
the remote name in the refspec. This is correct in most cases, but
breaks if the remote name occurs in the fetch refspec before the
expected place. For example, we currently change
[remote "remote"]
url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/remote/*
into
[remote "origin"]
url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/origins/remote/*
Reduce the risk of changing incorrect sections of the refspec by
matching the entire ":refs/remotes/<name>/" instead of just "<name>".

* jk/clone-cmdline-config:
clone: accept config options on the command line

remote: use new OPT_STRING_LIST
parse-options: add OPT_STRING_LIST helper
Commit 13fc2c1 (remote: disallow some nonsensical option
combinations, 2011-03-30) made it impossible to use "remote
add -t foo --mirror". The argument was that specifying
specific branches is useless because:
1. Push mirrors do not want a refspec at all.
2. The point of fetch mirroring is to use a broad refspec
like "refs/*", but using "-t" overrides that.
Point (1) is valid; "-t" with push mirrors is useless. But
point (2) ignored another side effect of using --mirror: it
fetches the refs directly into the refs/ namespace as they
are found upstream, instead of placing them in a
separate-remote layout.
So 13fc2c1 was overly constrictive, and disallowed
reasonable specific-branch mirroring, like:
git remote add -t heads/foo -t heads/bar --mirror=fetch
which makes the local "foo" and "bar" branches direct
mirrors of the remote, but does not fetch anything else.
This patch restores the original behavior, but only for
fetch mirrors.

* jk/maint-remote-mirror-safer:
remote: deprecate --mirror
remote: separate the concept of push and fetch mirrors
remote: disallow some nonsensical option combinations
The configuration created by plain --mirror is dangerous and
useless, and we now have --mirror=fetch and --mirror=push to
replace it. Let's warn the user.
One alternative to this is to try to guess which type the
user wants. In a non-bare repository, a fetch mirror doesn't
make much sense, since it would overwrite local commits. But
in a bare repository, you might use either type, or even
both (e.g., if you are acting as an intermediate drop-point
across two disconnected networks).
So rather than try for complex heuristics, let's keep it
simple. The user knows what they're trying to do, so let
them tell us.

git-remote currently has one option, "--mirror", which sets
up mirror configuration which can be used for either
fetching or pushing. It looks like this:
[remote "mirror"]
url = wherever
fetch = +refs/*:refs/*
mirror = true
However, a remote like this can be dangerous and confusing.
Specifically:
1. If you issue the wrong command, it can be devastating.
You are not likely to "push" when you meant to "fetch",
but "git remote update" will try to fetch it, even if
you intended the remote only for pushing. In either
case, the results can be quite destructive. An
unintended push will overwrite or delete remote refs,
and an unintended fetch can overwrite local branches.
2. The tracking setup code can produce confusing results.
The fetch refspec above means that "git checkout -b new
master" will consider refs/heads/master to come from
the remote "mirror", even if you only ever intend to
push to the mirror. It will set up the "new" branch to
track mirror's refs/heads/master.
3. The push code tries to opportunistically update
tracking branches. If you "git push mirror foo:bar",
it will see that we are updating mirror's
refs/heads/bar, which corresponds to our local
refs/heads/bar, and will update our local branch.
To solve this, we split the concept into "push mirrors" and
"fetch mirrors". Push mirrors set only remote.*.mirror,
solving (2) and (3), and making an accidental fetch write
only into FETCH_HEAD. Fetch mirrors set only the fetch
refspec, meaning an accidental push will not force-overwrite
or delete refs on the remote end.
The new syntax is "--mirror=<fetch|push>". For
compatibility, we keep "--mirror" as-is, setting up both
types simultaneously.

It doesn't make sense to use "-m" on a mirror, since "-m"
sets up the HEAD symref in the remotes namespace, but with
mirror, we are by definition not using a remotes namespace.
Similarly, it does not make much sense to specify refspecs
with --mirror. For a mirror you plan to push to, those
refspecs will be ignored. For a mirror you are fetching
from, there is no point in mirroring, since the refspec
specifies everything you want to grab.
There is one case where "--mirror -t <X>" would be useful.
Because <X> is used as-is in the refspec, and because we
append it to to refs/, you could mirror a subset of the
hierarchy by doing:
git remote add --mirror -t 'tags/*'
But using anything besides a single branch as an argument to
"-t" is not documented and only happens to work, so closing
it off is not a serious regression.

(Just like we did for documentation already)
In the process, we change "non-remote branch" to "branch outside the
refs/remotes/ hierarchy" to avoid the ugly "non-remote-tracking branch".
The new formulation actually corresponds to how the code detects this
case (i.e. prefixcmp(refname, "refs/remotes")).
Also, we use 'remote-tracking branch' in generated merge messages (by
merge an fmt-merge-msg).
