2007-03-22update-hook: abort early if the project description is unsetLibravatar Andy Parkins1-0/+6
It was annoying to always have the first email from a project be from the "Unnamed repository; edit this file to name it for gitweb project"; just because it's so easy to forget to set it. This patch checks to see if the description file is still default (or empty) and aborts if so - allowing you to fix the problem before sending out silly looking emails to every developer.

2007-03-22git-rebase: make 'rebase HEAD branch' work as expected.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+4
When you want to amend the commit message of 3 commits before the tip of the current branch, say 'master', A--B--C--D--E(master) it is sometimes handy to make your head detached at that commit with: $ git checkout HEAD~3 ;# check out B $ git commit --amend ;# without modifying contents... to create: .B'(HEAD) / A--B--C--D--E(master) and then rebase 'master' branch onto HEAD with this: $ git rebase HEAD master to result in: .B'-C'-D'-E(master=HEAD) / A--B--C--D--E However, the current code interprets HEAD after it switches to the branch 'master', which means the rebase will not do anything. You have to say something unwieldly like this instead: $ git rebase $(git rev-parse HEAD) master This fixes it by expanding the $onto commit name before switching to the target branch.

2007-03-22tree_entry_interesting(): allow it to say "everything is interesting"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+28
In addition to optimizing pathspecs that would never match, which was done earlier, this optimizes pathspecs that would always match (e.g. "arch/" while the traversal is already in "arch/i386/" hierarchy). This patch makes the worst case slightly more palatable, while improving average case. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-03-22tree-diff: avoid strncmp()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-23/+37
If we already know that some of the pathspecs can match later entries in the tree we are looking at, we do not have to do more expensive strncmp() upfront before comparing the length of the match pattern and the path, as a path longer than the match pattern will not match it, and a path shorter than the match pattern will match only if the path is a directory-component wise prefix of the match pattern.

2007-03-22Teach tree_entry_interesting() that the tree entries are sorted.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+35
When we are looking at a tree entry with pathspecs, if all the pathspecs sort strictly earlier than the entry we are currently looking at, there is no way later entries in the same tree would match our pathspecs, because the entries are sorted. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-03-21Switch over tree descriptors to contain a pre-parsed entryLibravatar Linus Torvalds2-62/+57
This makes the tree descriptor contain a "struct name_entry" as part of it, and it gets filled in so that it always contains a valid entry. On some benchmarks, it improves performance by up to 15%. That makes tree entry "extract" trivial, and means that we only actually need to decode each tree entry just once: we decode the first one when we initialize the tree descriptor, and each subsequent one when doing "update_tree_entry()". In particular, this means that we don't need to do strlen() both at extract time _and_ at update time. Finally, it also allows more sharing of code (entry_extract(), that wanted a "struct name_entry", just got totally trivial, along with the "tree_entry()" function).

2007-03-21Initialize tree descriptors with a helper function rather than by hand.Libravatar Linus Torvalds15-62/+60
This removes slightly more lines than it adds, but the real reason for doing this is that future optimizations will require more setup of the tree descriptor, and so we want to do it in one place. Also renamed the "desc.buf" field to "desc.buffer" just to trigger compiler errors for old-style manual initializations, making sure I didn't miss anything.

2007-03-21Remove "pathlen" from "struct name_entry"Libravatar Linus Torvalds6-15/+14
Since we have the "tree_entry_len()" helper function these days, and don't need to do a full strlen(), there's no point in saving the path length - it's just redundant information. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-03-20blame: cmp_suspect is not "cmp" anymore.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-13/+13

2007-03-20Be more careful about zlib return valuesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-4/+9
When creating a new object, we use "deflate(stream, Z_FINISH)" in a loop until it no longer returns Z_OK, and then we do "deflateEnd()" to finish up business. That should all work, but the fact is, it's not how you're _supposed_ to use the zlib return values properly: - deflate() should never return Z_OK in the first place, except if we need to increase the output buffer size (which we're not doing, and should never need to do, since we pre-allocated a buffer that is supposed to be able to hold the output in full). So the "while()" loop was incorrect: Z_OK doesn't actually mean "ok, continue", it means "ok, allocate more memory for me and continue"! - if we got an error return, we would consider it to be end-of-stream, but it could be some internal zlib error. In short, we should check for Z_STREAM_END explicitly, since that's the only valid return value anyway for the Z_FINISH case. - we never checked deflateEnd() return codes at all. Now, admittedly, none of these issues should ever happen, unless there is some internal bug in zlib. So this patch should make zero difference, but it seems to be the right thing to do. We should probablybe anal and check the return value of "deflateInit()" too! Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-03-20Don't ever return corrupt objects from "parse_object()"Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-2/+4
Looking at the SHA1 validation code due to the corruption that Alexander Litvinov is seeing under Cygwin, I notice that one of the most central places where we read objects, we actually do end up verifying the SHA1 of the result, but then we happily parse it anyway. And using "printf" to write the error message means that it not only can get lost, but will actually mess up stdout, and cause other strange and hard-to-debug failures downstream.

2007-03-20index-pack: more validation checks and cleanupsLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-9/+9
When appending objects to a pack, make sure the appended data is really what we expect instead of simply loading potentially corrupted objects and legitimating them by computing a SHA1 of that corrupt data. With this the sha1_object() can lose its test_for_collision parameter which is now redundent. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-03-20don't ever allow SHA1 collisions to exist by fetching a packLibravatar Nicolas Pitre2-4/+27
Waaaaaaay back Git was considered to be secure as it never overwrote an object it already had. This was ensured by always unpacking the packfile received over the network (both in fetch and receive-pack) and our already existing logic to not create a loose object for an object we already have. Lately however we keep "large-ish" packfiles on both fetch and push by running them through index-pack instead of unpack-objects. This would let an attacker perform a birthday attack. How? Assume the attacker knows a SHA-1 that has two different data streams. He knows the client is likely to have the "good" one. So he sends the "evil" variant to the other end as part of a "large-ish" packfile. The recipient keeps that packfile, and indexes it. Now since this is a birthday attack there is a SHA-1 collision; two objects exist in the repository with the same SHA-1. They have *very* different data streams. One of them is "evil". Currently the poor recipient cannot tell the two objects apart, short of by examining the timestamp of the packfiles. But lets say the recipient repacks before he realizes he's been attacked. We may wind up packing the "evil" version of the object, and deleting the "good" one. This is made *even more likely* by Junio's recent rearrange_packed_git patch (b867092f). It is extremely unlikely for a SHA1 collisions to occur, but if it ever happens with a remote (hence untrusted) object we simply must not let the fetch succeed. Normally received packs should not contain objects we already have. But when they do we must ensure duplicated objects with the same SHA1 actually contain the same data.

2007-03-19Fix loose object uncompression check.Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-2/+15
The thing is, if the output buffer is empty, we should *still* actually use the zlib routines to *unpack* that empty output buffer. But we had a test that said "only unpack if we still expect more output". So we wouldn't use up all the zlib stream, because we felt that we didn't need it, because we already had all the bytes we wanted. And it was "true": we did have all the output data. We just needed to also eat all the input data! We've had this bug before - thinking that we don't need to inflate() anything because we already had it all..

2007-03-19Set up for better tree diff optimizationsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-10/+34
This is mainly just a cleanup patch, and sets up for later changes where the tree-diff.c "interesting()" function can return more than just a yes/no value. In particular, it should be quite possible to say "no subsequent entries in this tree can possibly be interesting any more", and thus allow the callers to short-circuit the tree entirely. In fact, changing the callers to do so is trivial, and is really all this patch really does, because changing "interesting()" itself to say that nothing further is going to be interesting is definitely more complicated, considering that we may have arbitrary pathspecs. But in cleaning up the callers, this actually fixes a potential small performance issue in diff_tree(): if the second tree has a lot of uninterestign crud in it, we would keep on doing the "is it interesting?" check on the first tree for each uninteresting entry in the second one. The answer is obviously not going to change, so that was just not helping. The new code is clearer and simpler and avoids this issue entirely. I also renamed "interesting()" to "tree_entry_interesting()", because I got frustrated by the fact that - we actually had *another* function called "interesting()" in another file, and I couldn't tell from the profiles which one was the one that mattered more. - when rewriting it to return a ternary value, you can't just do if (interesting(...)) ... any more, but want to assign the return value to a local variable. The name of choice for that variable would normally be "interesting", so I just wanted to make the function name be more specific, and avoid that whole issue (even though I then didn't choose that name for either of the users, just to avoid confusion in the patch itself ;) In other words, this doesn't really change anything, but I think it's a good thing to do, and if somebody comes along and writes the logic for "yeah, none of the pathspecs you have are interesting", we now support that trivially. It could easily be a meaningful optimization for things like "blame", where there's just one pathspec, and stopping when you've seen it would allow you to avoid about 50% of the tree traversals on average.

2007-03-19Trivial cleanup of track_tree_refs()Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-3/+1
This makes "track_tree_refs()" use the same "tree_entry()" function for counting the entries as it does for actually traversing them a few lines later. Not a biggie, but the reason I care was that this was the only user of "update_tree_entry()" that didn't actually *extract* the tree entry first. It doesn't matter as things stand now, but it meant that a separate test-patch I had that avoided a few more "strlen()" calls by just saving the entry length in the entry descriptor and using it directly when updating wouldn't work without this patch.

2007-03-18Limit the size of the new delta_base_cacheLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce5-4/+46
The new configuration variable core.deltaBaseCacheLimit allows the user to control how much memory they are willing to give to Git for caching base objects of deltas. This is not normally meant to be a user tweakable knob; the "out of the box" settings are meant to be suitable for almost all workloads. We default to 16 MiB under the assumption that the cache is not meant to consume all of the user's available memory, and that the cache's main purpose was to cache trees, for faster path limiters during revision traversal. Since trees tend to be relatively small objects, this relatively small limit should still allow a large number of objects. On the other hand we don't want the cache to start storing 200 different versions of a 200 MiB blob, as this could easily blow the entire address space of a 32 bit process. We evict OBJ_BLOB from the cache first (credit goes to Junio) as we want to favor OBJ_TREE within the cache. These are the objects that have the highest inflate() startup penalty, as they tend to be small and thus don't have that much of a chance to ammortize that penalty over the entire data.

2007-03-18Avoid unnecessary strlen() callsLibravatar Linus Torvalds3-29/+36
This is a micro-optimization that grew out of the mailing list discussion about "strlen()" showing up in profiles. We used to pass regular C strings around to the low-level tree walking routines, and while this worked fine, it meant that we needed to call strlen() on strings that the caller always actually knew the size of anyway. So pass the length of the string down wih the string, and avoid unnecessary calls to strlen(). Also, when extracting a pathname from a tree entry, use "tree_entry_len()" instead of strlen(), since the length of the pathname is directly calculable from the decoded tree entry itself without having to actually do another strlen(). This shaves off another ~5-10% from some loads that are very tree intensive (notably doing commit filtering by a pathspec).
