This converts two lines into one at each caller. But more
importantly, it abstracts the concept of freeing the buffer,
which will make it easier to change later.
Note that we also need to provide a "detach" mechanism for a
tricky case in index-pack. We are passed a buffer for the
object generated by processing the incoming pack. If we are
not using --strict, we just calculate the sha1 on that
buffer and return, leaving the caller to free it. But if we
are using --strict, we actually attach that buffer to an
object, pass the object to the fsck functions, and then
detach the buffer from the object again (so that the caller
can free it as usual). In this case, we don't want to free
the buffer ourselves, but just make sure it is no longer
associated with the commit.
Note that we are making the assumption here that the
attach/detach process does not impact the buffer at all
(e.g., it is never reallocated or modified). That holds true
now, and we have no plans to change that. However, as we
abstract the commit_buffer code, this dependency becomes
less obvious. So when we detach, let's also make sure that
we get back the same buffer that we gave to the
commit_buffer code.

This patch allows users to use the short form -q on
log and format-patch, which was non possible before.
Also the documentation of format-patch mentions -q now.
The documentation of log doesn't even talk about --quiet, so I'll leave
that for more experienced git contributors. ;)
It doesn't seem to change the default behavior, but in combination
with --stat for example it suppresses the actual stats.
however the only relevant code in log is

As of b04ba2bb4 OPTION_BOOLEAN was deprecated.
This commit removes all occurrences of OPTION_BOOLEAN.
In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either
OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which
occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter.
So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option
in parse-options.h to make life easy.
The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref.
The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT
was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern,
so we could think of introducing OPT_NONEG_BOOL.

Format-patch generates emails with the "From" address set to the
author of each patch. If you are going to send the emails, however,
you would want to replace the author identity with yours (if they
are not the same), and bump the author identity to an in-body
header.
Normally this is handled by git-send-email, which does the
transformation before sending out the emails. However, some
workflows may not use send-email (e.g., imap-send, or a custom
script which feeds the mbox to a non-git MUA). They could each
implement this feature themselves, but getting it right is
non-trivial (one must canonicalize the identities by reversing any
RFC2047 encoding or RFC822 quoting of the headers, which has caused
many bugs in send-email over the years).
This patch takes a different approach: it teaches format-patch a
"--from" option which handles the ident check and in-body header
while it is writing out the email. It's much simpler to do at this
level (because we haven't done any quoting yet), and any workflow
based on format-patch can easily turn it on.

"git log" learned the "--author-date-order" option, with which the
output is topologically sorted and commits in parallel histories
are shown intermixed together based on the author timestamp.
* jc/topo-author-date-sort:
t6003: add --author-date-order test
topology tests: teach a helper to set author dates as well
t6003: add --date-order test
topology tests: teach a helper to take abbreviated timestamps
t/lib-t6000: style fixes
log: --author-date-order
sort-in-topological-order: use prio-queue
prio-queue: priority queue of pointers to structs
toposort: rename "lifo" field
The primary invariant of sort_in_topological_order() is that a
parent commit is not emitted until all children of it are. When
traversing a forked history like this with "git log C E":
A----B----C
\
D----E
we ensure that A is emitted after all of B, C, D, and E are done, B
has to wait until C is done, and D has to wait until E is done.
In some applications, however, we would further want to control how
these child commits B, C, D and E on two parallel ancestry chains
are shown.
Most of the time, we would want to see C and B emitted together, and
then E and D, and finally A (i.e. the --topo-order output). The
"lifo" parameter of the sort_in_topological_order() function is used
to control this behaviour. We start the traversal by knowing two
commits, C and E. While keeping in mind that we also need to
inspect E later, we pick C first to inspect, and we notice and
record that B needs to be inspected. By structuring the "work to be
done" set as a LIFO stack, we ensure that B is inspected next,
before other in-flight commits we had known that we will need to
inspect, e.g. E.
When showing in --date-order, we would want to see commits ordered
by timestamps, i.e. show C, E, B and D in this order before showing
A, possibly mixing commits from two parallel histories together.
When "lifo" parameter is set to false, the function keeps the "work
to be done" set sorted in the date order to realize this semantics.
After inspecting C, we add B to the "work to be done" set, but the
next commit we inspect from the set is E which is newer than B.
The name "lifo", however, is too strongly tied to the way how the
function implements its behaviour, and does not describe what the
behaviour _means_.
Replace this field with an enum rev_sort_order, with two possible
values: REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER and REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE, and
update the existing code. The mechanical replacement rule is:
"lifo == 0" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_BY_COMMIT_DATE"
"lifo == 1" is equivalent to "sort_order == REV_SORT_IN_GRAPH_ORDER"

The diff_opt infrastructure sets flags based on defaults and command

as a default or on explicit request. Update the structure so that
this detection is possible:
* Add an extra "opt->touched_flags" that keeps track of all the
fields that have been touched by DIFF_OPT_SET and DIFF_OPT_CLR.
* You may continue setting the default values to the flags, like
commands in the "log" family do in cmd_log_init_defaults(), but
after you finished setting the defaults, you clear the
touched_flags field;
* And then you let the usual callchain call diff_opt_parse(),
allowing the opt->flags be set or unset, while keeping track of
which bits the user touched;
* There is an optional callback "opt->set_default" that is called
at the very beginning to let you inspect touched_flags and update
opt->flags appropriately, before the remainder of the diffcore
machinery is set up, taking the opt->flags value into account.

This is a rewrite of much of Bo's work, mainly in an effort to split
it into smaller, easier to understand routines.
The algorithm is built around the struct range_set, which encodes a
series of line ranges as intervals [a,b). This is used in two
contexts:
* A set of lines we are tracking (which will change as we dig through
history).
* To encode diffs, as pairs of ranges.
The main routine is range_set_map_across_diff(). It processes the
diff between a commit C and some parent P. It determines which diff
hunks are relevant to the ranges tracked in C, and computes the new
ranges for P.
The algorithm is then simply to process history in topological order
from newest to oldest, computing ranges and (partial) diffs. At
branch points, we need to merge the ranges we are watching. We will
find that many commits do not affect the chosen ranges, and mark them
TREESAME (in addition to those already filtered by pathspec limiting).
Another pass of history simplification then gets rid of such commits.
This is wired as an extra filtering pass in the log machinery. This
currently only reduces code duplication, but should allow for other
simplifications and options to be used.
Finally, we hook a diff printer into the output chain. Ideally we
would wire directly into the diff logic, to optionally use features
like word diff. However, that will require some major reworking of
the diff chain, so we completely replace the output with our own diff
for now.

people have helped. In no particular order, thanks go to

The --reroll-count=$N option, when given a positive integer:
- Adds " v$N" to the subject prefix specified. As the default
subject prefix string is "PATCH", --reroll-count=2 makes it
"PATCH v2".
- Prefixes "v$N-" to the names used for output files. The cover
letter, whose name is usually 0000-cover-letter.patch, becomes
v2-0000-cover-letter.patch when given --reroll-count=2.
This allows users to use the same --output-directory for multiple

When 'git log' is passed the --no-walk option, no revision walk takes
place, naturally. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, however, the provided
revisions still get sorted by commit date. So e.g 'git log --no-walk
HEAD HEAD~1' and 'git log --no-walk HEAD~1 HEAD' give the same result
(unless the two revisions share the commit date, in which case they
will retain the order given on the command line). As the commit that
introduced --no-walk (8e64006 (Teach revision machinery about
--no-walk, 2007-07-24)) points out, the sorting is intentional, to
allow things like
git log --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline --decorate --all --no-walk
to show all refs in order by commit date.
But there are also other cases where the sorting is not wanted, such
as
<command producing revisions in order> |
git log --oneline --no-walk --stdin
To accomodate both cases, leave the decision of whether or not to sort
up to the caller, by allowing --no-walk={sorted,unsorted}, defaulting
to 'sorted' for backward-compatibility reasons.

Originally the "--quiet" option was parsed by the
diff-option parser into the internal QUICK option. This had
the effect of silencing diff output from the log (which was
not intended, but happened to work and people started to
use it). But it also had other odd side effects at the diff
level (for example, it would suppress the second commit in
"git show A B").
To fix this, commit 1c40c36 converted log to parse-options
and handled the "quiet" option separately, not passing it
on to the diff code. However, it simply ignored the option,
which was a regression for people using it as a synonym for
"-s". Commit 01771a8 then fixed that by interpreting the
option to add DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT to the list of output
formats.
However, that commit did not fix it in all cases. It sets
the flag after setup_revisions is called. Naively, this
makes sense because you would expect the setup_revisions
parser to overwrite our output format flag if "-p" or
another output format flag is seen.
However, that is not how the NO_OUTPUT flag works. We
actually store it in the bit-field as just another format.
At the end of setup_revisions, we call diff_setup_done,
which post-processes the bitfield and clears any other
formats if we have set NO_OUTPUT. By setting the flag after
setup_revisions is done, diff_setup_done does not have a
chance to make this tweak, and we end up with other format
options still set.
As a result, the flag would have no effect in "git log -p
--quiet" or "git show --quiet". Fix it by setting the
format flag before the call to setup_revisions.
