* upload-archive: use start_command instead of forkjk/upload-archive-use-start-commandJeff King2011-11-214-36/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | The POSIX-function fork is not supported on Windows. Use our start_command API instead, respawning ourselves in a special "writer" mode to follow the alternate code path. Remove the NOT_MINGW-prereq for t5000, as git-archive --remote now works. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* | Makefile: add option to disable automatic dependency generationJonathan Nieder2011-11-181-7/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES feature is turned on automatically for compilers that support it (see v1.7.8-rc0~142^2~1, 2011-08-18), there is no easy way to force it off. For example, setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to the empty string in config.mak just tells the makefile to treat it as undefined and run a test command to see if the -MMD option is supported. So allow setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no to explicitly force the feature off. The new semantics: - "yes" means to explicitly enable the feature - "no" means to disable it - "auto" means to autodetect The default is still "auto". Any value other than these three will cause the build to error out with a descriptive message so typos and stale settings in config.mak don't result in mysterious behavior. Makefile:1278: *** please set COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to yes, no, or auto (not "1"). Stop. So now when someone using a compiler without -MMD support reports trouble building git, you can reproduce it by running "make COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no".

The OUTPUT macro seems to have been inspired by the "output" function from merge-recursive. But that function in merge-recursive exists to indent output based on the level of recursion and there is no similar justification for such a function in "notes merge".

Most translation units depend on streaming.h via cache.h. v1.7.5-rc0~48 (Fix sparse warnings, 2011-03-22) introduced undeclared dependencies by url.o on url.h and thread-utils.o on thread-utils.h.

Store the path we are trying to write to in a temporary variable and pass _that_ to die_errno(), so the messages written by git cherry-pick/revert and git merge can avoid this source of confusion.

In other words, these entries are deliberately formatted not to pass check-refname-format test. A recent series however added a test unconditionally to the add_ref() function that is called from add_extra_ref(). The check may be sensible for other two callsites of the add_ref() interface, but definitely is a wrong thing to do in add_extra_ref(). Disable it.

It is very likely that the reason why user included the username in the URL is because the user knows that it would require authentication to access the resource. Asking for the password upfront would save one roundtrip to get a 401 response, getting the password and then retrying the request. This is a reasonable optimization. HOWEVER. This is done even when $HOME/.netrc might have a corresponding entry to access the site, or the site does not require authentication to access the resource after all. But neither condition can be determined until we call into libcurl library (we do not read and parse $HOME/.netrc ourselves). In these cases, the user is forced to respond to the password prompt, only to give a password that is not used in the HTTP transaction. If the password is in $HOME/.netrc, an empty input would later let the libcurl layer to pick up the password from there, and if the resource does not require authentication, any input would be taken and then discarded without getting used. It is wasteful to ask this unused information to the end user. Reduce the confusion by not trying to optimize for this case and always incur roundtrip penalty. An alternative might be to document this and keep this round-trip optimization as-is.
