Since bash-completion rules are loaded dynamically, the completion
rules for `gitk <Tab>` waere not being loaded until the user first
typed `git <Tab>`. Fix this by adding a symlink named `gitk`.

When perlSupport = false, we will set NO_PERL=1, and build Git without
Perl support. This is a build option that Git supports. However, Git's
test suite still requires a Perl to be available to run the tests, and
we did not provide one. The tests respect PERL_PATH, and if it is not
set, they default to /usr/bin/perl.
Before this commit, if we set "perlSupport = false", then no Perl would
be available to the package, and so the tests would default to
/usr/bin/perl. When building without a sandbox, that could still work,
even though there is no "perl" on the path, because the tests defaulted
to an absolute path.
You can reproduce this issue as follows:
nix-build -E 'let pkgs = (import ./default.nix) {}; in pkgs.git.override { perlSupport = false; }'
I just ran into this when trying to build pkgs.git from an old version
of Nixpkgs that I was able to build just fine in the past, and today it
would not build any more, complaining when running the tests:
make -C t/ all
make[1]: Entering directory '/build/git-2.18.0/t'
rm -f -r 'test-results'
/nix/store/czx8vkrb9jdgjyz8qfksh10vrnqa723l-bash-4.4-p23/bin/bash: /usr/bin/perl: No such file or directory
In the past the sandbox was not enabled by default, so then it worked
for me. But now that it is enabled, my host's (not NixOS) /usr/bin/perl
is no longer accessible, and the build fails.
The solution is to explicitly set PERL_PATH when running the tests. This
*almost* works, except that there appears to be a bug in the test for
"git request-pull". That command is a Bash script that calls Perl at
some point, so it requires Perl, and therefore it cannot be supported
when NO_PERL=1. But that particular test does not check whether Git was
compiled with Perl support (other tests do include that check), and that
makes the test fail:
t5150-request-pull.sh ..............................
not ok 4 - pull request after push
not ok 5 - request asks HEAD to be pulled
not ok 6 - pull request format
not ok 7 - request-pull ignores OPTIONS_KEEPDASHDASH poison
not ok 9 - pull request with mismatched object
not ok 10 - pull request with stale object
Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
Failed 6/10 subtests
This output makes sense if you look at t5150-request-pull.sh. Test 1 and
2 are setup steps. Test 3 does call request-pull, but it expects the
command to fail, and it cannot distinguish between the command exiting
with a nonzero exit code, or failing to start it at all. So test 3
passes for the wrong reasons. Test 4 through 10 all call request-pull,
so they fail.
The quick workaround here is to disable the test. I will look into
upstreaming a patch that makes the test skip itself when Perl is
disabled.
The tests for null patterns where changed in 25754125cef278c7e9492fbd6dc4a28319b01f18,
it's possible utf-8 normalisation is causing different behaviour here.

Putting the file in $out/share/bash-completion/completions means that it will be loaded on demand by nixpkgs.bash-completion.
With the old location, the user would either have to explicitly source the file during bash startup, or set BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR before sourcing bash_completion.sh, which will eagerly load everything in that directory.
There ver very many conflicts, basically all due to
name -> pname+version. Fortunately, almost everything was auto-resolved
by kdiff3, and for now I just fixed up a couple evaluation problems,
as verified by the tarball job. There might be some fallback to these
conflicts, but I believe it should be minimal.
Hydra nixpkgs: ?compare=1538299
Reduces gitMinimal closure size from 329.6M to 174.8M.
Fixes the issue https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/64350.
In git 2.22.0 git-stash is no longer a shell script and now it is just a symlink to git.
`postInstall` assumed that it was a shell script, tried to patch it and
ended up corrupting the file and made `strip` refuse stripping it.

search for tests in that folder, but also create a .pytest-cache folder.
Not only is this state we don't want, but it was also causing
collisions.

* Revert "meson: 0.46.1 -> 0.47.0"
With meson 0.47.0 (or 0.47.1, or git)
things are very wrong re:rpath handling
resulting in at best missing libs but
even corrupt binaries :(.
When we run patchelf it masks the problem
by removing obviously busted paths.
Which is probably why this wasn't noticed immediately.
Unfortunately the binary already
has a long series of paths scribbled
in a space intended for a much smaller string;
in my testing it was something like
lengths were 67 with 300+ written to it.
I think we've reported the relevant issues upstream,
but unfortunately it appears our patches
are what introduces the overwrite/corruption
(by no longer being correct in what they assume)
This doesn't look so bad to fix but it's
not something I can spend more time on
at the moment.
--
Interestingly the overwritten string data
(because it is scribbled past the bounds)
remains in the binary and is why we're suddenly
seeing unexpected references in various builds
-- notably this is is the reason we're
seeing the "extra-utils" breakage
that entirely crippled NixOS on master
(and probably on staging before?).
Fixes#43650.
This reverts commit 305ac4dade.

I'm working to resolve this but it will take some time
(patches sent to upstream musl, maybe to git afterwards)
and for now this blocks quite a lot.
If that doesn't work out we can explore options such as
always using GNU libiconv with musl.
