2016-04-06rerere: split code to call ll_merge() furtherLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-16/+31
The merge() helper function is given an existing rerere ID (i.e. the name of the .git/rr-cache/* subdirectory, and the variant number) that identifies one <preimage, postimage> pair, try to see if the conflicted state in the given path can be resolved by using the pair, and if this succeeds, then update the conflicted path with the result in the working tree. To implement rerere_forget() in the multiple variant world, we'd need a helper to do the "see if a <preimage, postimage> pair cleanly resolves a conflicted state we have in-core" part, without actually touching any file in the working tree, in order to identify which variant(s) to remove. Split the logic to do so into a separate helper function try_merge() out of merge(). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-04-06rerere: move code related to "forget" togetherLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-97/+97
"rerere forget" is the only user of handle_cache() helper, which in turn is the only user of rerere_io that reads from an in-core buffer whose getline method is implemented as rerere_mem_getline(). Gather them together. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-04-06rerere: gc and clearLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-45/+123
Adjust "git rerere gc" and "git rerere clear" to the new world order with rerere database with multiple variants for the same shape of conflicts. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-03-15rerere: do use multiple variantsLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-39/+61
This enables the multiple-variant support for real. Multiple conflicts of the same shape can have differences in contexts where they appear, interfering the replaying of recorded resolution of one conflict to another, and in such a case, their resolutions are recorded as different variants under the same conflict ID. We still need to adjust garbage collection codepaths for this change, but the basic "replay" functionality is functional with this change. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-03-15t4200: rerere a merge with two identical conflictsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+74
When the context of multiple identical conflicts are different, two seemingly the same conflict resolution cannot be safely applied. In such a case, at least we should be able to record these two resolutions separately in the rerere database, and reuse them when we see the same conflict later. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-03-15rerere: allow multiple variants to existLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-22/+106
The shape of the conflict in a path determines the conflict ID. The preimage and postimage pair that was recorded for the conflict ID previously may or may not replay well for the conflict we just saw. Currently, we punt when the previous resolution does not cleanly replay, but ideally we should then be able to record the currently conflicted path by assigning a new 'variant', and then record the resolution the user is going to make. Introduce a mechanism to have more than one variant for a given conflict ID; we do not actually assign any variant other than 0th variant yet at this step. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-03-15rerere: delay the recording of preimageLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-27/+25
We record the preimage only when there is no directory to record the conflict we encountered, i.e. when $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/$ID does not exist. As the plan is to allow multiple <preimage,postimage> pairs as variants for the same conflict ID eventually, this logic needs to go. As the first step in that direction, stop the "did we create the directory? Then we record the preimage" logic. Instead, we record if a preimage does not exist when we saw a conflict in a path. Also make sure that we remove a stale postimage, which most likely is totally unrelated to the resolution of this new conflict, when we create a new preimage under $ID when $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/$ID already exists. In later patches, we will further update this logic to be "do we have <preimage,postimage> pair that cleanly resolve the current conflicts? If not, record a new preimage as a new variant", but that does not happen at this stage yet. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-03-15rerere: handle leftover rr-cache/$ID directory and postimage filesLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-18/+41
If by some accident there is only $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/$ID directory existed, we wouldn't have recorded a preimage for a conflict that is newly encountered, which would mean after a manual resolution, we wouldn't have recorded it by storing the postimage, because the logic used to be "if there is no rr-cache/$ID directory, then we are the first so record the preimage". Instead, record preimage if we do not have one. In addition, if there is only $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/$ID/postimage without corresponding preimage, we would have tried to call into merge() and punted. These would have been a situation frustratingly hard to recover from. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-02-08rerere: scan $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/$ID when instantiating a rerere_idLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+29
This will help fixing bootstrap corner-case issues, e.g. having an empty $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/$ID directory would fail to record a preimage, in later changes in this series. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-02-08rerere: split conflict ID furtherLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-6/+58
The plan is to keep assigning the backward compatible conflict ID based on the hash of the (normalized) text of conflicts, keep using that conflict ID as the directory name under $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/, but allow each conflicted path to use a separate "variant" to record resolutions, i.e. having more than one <preimage,postimage> pairs under $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/$ID/ directory. As the first step in that direction, separate the shared "conflict ID" out of the rerere_id structure. The plan is to keep information per $ID in rerere_dir, that can be shared among rerere_id that is per conflicted path. When we are done with rerere(), which can be directly called from other programs like "git apply", "git commit" and "git merge", the shared rerere_dir structures can be freed entirely, so they are not reference-counted and they are not freed when we release rerere_id's that reference them.

2016-02-08rerere: replace strcpy with xsnprintfLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2

2015-07-24rerere: use "struct rerere_id" instead of "char *" for conflict IDLibravatar Junio C Hamano3-28/+85
This gives a thin abstraction between the conflict ID that is a hash value obtained by inspecting the conflicts and the name of the directory under $GIT_DIR/rr-cache/, in which the previous resolution is recorded to be replayed. The plan is to make sure that the presence of the directory does not imply the presense of a previous resolution and vice-versa, and later allow us to have more than one pair of <preimage, postimage> for a given conflict ID.

2015-07-24rerere: fix benign off-by-one non-bug and clarify codeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+8
rerere_io_putconflict() wants to use a limited fixed-sized buf[] on stack repeatedly to formulate a longer string, but its implementation is doubly confusing: * When it knows that the whole thing fits in buf[], it wants to fill early part of buf[] with conflict marker characters, followed by a LF and a NUL. It miscounts the size of the buffer by 1 and does not use the last byte of buf[]. * When it needs to show only the early part of a long conflict marker string (because the whole thing does not fit in buf[]), it adjusts the number of bytes shown in the current round in a strange-looking way. It makes sure that this round does not emit all bytes and leaves at least one byte to the next round, so that "it all fits" case will pick up the rest and show the terminating LF. While this is correct, one needs to stop and think for a while to realize why it is correct without an explanation. Fix the benign off-by-one, and add comments to explain the strange-looking size adjustment. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-07-24rerere: do not leak mmfile[] for a path with multiple stage #1 entriesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
A conflicted index can have multiple stage #1 entries when dealing with a criss-cross merge and using the "resolve" merge strategy. Plug the leak by reading only the first one of the same stage entries. Strictly speaking, this fix does change the semantics, in that we used to use the last stage #1 entry as the common ancestor when doing the plain-vanilla three-way merge, but with the leak fix, we will use the first stage #1 entry. But it is not a grave backward compatibility breakage. Either way, we are arbitrarily picking one of multiple stage #1 entries and using it, ignoring others, and there is no meaning in the ordering of these stage #1 entries.

2015-07-24rerere: stop looping unnecessarilyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+7
handle_cache() loops 3 times starting from an index entry that is unmerged, while ignoring an entry for a path that is different from what we are looking for. As the index is sorted, once we see a different path, we know we saw all stages for the path we are interested in. Just loop while we see the same path and then break, instead of continuing for 3 times. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-07-24rerere: write out each record of MERGE_RR in one goLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+9
Instead of writing the hash for a conflict, a HT, and the path with three separate write_in_full() calls, format them into a single record into a strbuf and write it out in one go. As a more recent "rerere remaining" codepath abuses the .util field of the merge_rr data to store a sentinel token, make sure that codepath does not call into this function (of course, "remaining" is a read-only operation and currently does not call it). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-07-24rerere: lift PATH_MAX limitationLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-20/+15
The MERGE_RR file records a collection of NUL-terminated entries, each of which consists of - a hash that identifies the conflict - a HT - the pathname We used to read this piece-by-piece, and worse yet, read the pathname part a byte at a time into a fixed buffer of size PATH_MAX. Instead, read a whole entry using strbuf_getwholeline() and parse out the fields. This way, we issue fewer read(2) calls and more importantly we do not have to limit the pathname to PATH_MAX. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-07-24rerere: plug conflict ID leaksLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+5
The merge_rr string list stores the conflict ID (a hexadecimal string that is used to index into $GIT_DIR/rr-cache) in the .util field of its elements, and when do_plain_rerere() resolves a conflict, the field is cleared. Also, when rerere_forget() recomputes the conflict ID to updates the preimage file, the conflict ID for the path is updated. We forgot to free the existing conflict ID when we did these two operations. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-06-28rerere: fix an off-by-one non-bugLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+2
When ac49f5ca (rerere "remaining", 2011-02-16) split out a new helper function check_one_conflict() out of find_conflict() function, so that the latter will use the returned value from the new helper to update the loop control variable that is an index into active_cache[], the new variable incremented the index by one too many when it found a path with only stage #1 entry at the very end of active_cache[]. This "strange" return value does not have any effect on the loop control of two callers of this function, as they all notice that active_nr+2 is larger than active_nr just like active_nr+1 is, but nevertheless it puzzles the readers when they are trying to figure out what the function is trying to do. In fact, there is no need to do an early return. The code that follows after skipping the stage #1 entry is fully prepared to handle a case where the entry is at the very end of active_cache[]. Help future readers from unnecessary confusion by dropping an early return. We skip the stage #1 entry, and if there are stage #2 and stage #3 entries for the same path, we diagnose the path as THREE_STAGED (otherwise we say PUNTED), and then we skip all entries for the same path.
