http-push: enable "proactive auth"

2011-12-14T00:34:44Z

Before commit 986bbc08, git was proactive about asking for http passwords. It assumed that if you had a username in your URL, you would also want a password, and asked for it before making any http requests. However, this could interfere with the use of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for details). And it was also unnecessary, since the http fetching code had learned to recognize an HTTP 401 and prompt the user then. Furthermore, the proactive prompt could interfere with the usage of .netrc (see 986bbc08 for details). Unfortunately, the http push-over-DAV code never learned to recognize HTTP 401, and so was broken by this change. This patch does a quick fix of re-enabling the "proactive auth" strategy only for http-push, leaving the dumb http fetch and smart-http as-is. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

http_init: accept separate URL parameter

2011-10-16T04:18:36Z

The http_init function takes a "struct remote". Part of its initialization procedure is to look at the remote's url and grab some auth-related parameters. However, using the url included in the remote is: - wrong; the remote-curl helper may have a separate, unrelated URL (e.g., from remote.*.pushurl). Looking at the remote's configured url is incorrect. - incomplete; http-fetch doesn't have a remote, so passes NULL. So http_init never gets to see the URL we are actually going to use. - cumbersome; http-push has a similar problem to http-fetch, but actually builds a fake remote just to pass in the URL. Instead, let's just add a separate URL parameter to http_init, and all three callsites can pass in the appropriate information. Signed-off-by: Jeff King Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

Accept tags in HEAD or MERGE_HEAD

2011-09-18T21:11:40Z

HEAD and MERGE_HEAD (among other branch tips) should never hold a tag. That can only be caused by broken tools and is cumbersome to fix by an end user with: $ git update-ref HEAD $(git rev-parse HEAD^{commit}) which may look like a magic to a new person. Be easy, warn users (so broken tools can be fixed if they bother to report) and move on. Be robust, if the given SHA-1 cannot be resolved to a commit object, die (therefore return value is always valid). Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano

rename "match_refs()" to "match_push_refs()"

2011-09-12T23:41:53Z

Yes, there is a warning that says the function is only used by push in big red letters in front of this function, but it didn't say a more important thing it should have said: what the function is for and what it does. Rename it and document it to avoid future confusion. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano
