2007-08-19Document what the stage numbers in the :$n:path syntax mean.Libravatar Steven Grimm1-1/+4
The git-rev-parse manpage talks about the :$n:path notation (buried deep in a list of other syntax) but it just says $n is a "stage number" -- someone who is not familiar with the internals of git's merge implementation is never going to be able to figure out that "1", "2", and "3" means.

2007-08-19Don't allow combination of -g and --reverse as it doesn't workLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce3-0/+7
The --walk-reflogs logic and the --reverse logic are completely incompatible with one another. Attempting to use both at the same time leads to confusing results that sometimes violates the user's formatting options or ignores the user's request to see the reflog message and timestamp. Unfortunately the implementation of both of these features is glued onto the side of the revision walking machinary in such a way that they are probably not going to be easy to make them compatible with each other. Rather than offering the user confusing results we are better off bailing out with an error message until such a time as the implementations can be refactored to be compatible.

2007-08-19Take binary diffs into account for "git rebase"Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-4/+0
We used to not generate a patch ID for binary diffs, but that means that some commits may be skipped as being identical to already-applied diffs when doing a rebase. So just delete the code that skips the binary diff. At the very least, we'd want the filenames to be part of the patch ID, but we might also want to generate some hash for the binary diff itself too. This fixes an issue noticed by Torgil Svensson.

2007-08-19Make thin-pack generation subproject aware.Libravatar Linus Torvalds2-0/+54
When a thin pack wants to send a tree object at "sub/dir", and the commit that is common between the sender and the receiver that is used as the base object has a subproject at that path, we should not try to use the data at "sub/dir" of the base tree as a tree object. It is not a tree to begin with, and more importantly, the commit object there does not have to even exist. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-08-19Correct documentation of 'reflog show' to explain it shows HEADLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+2
By default 'git reflog show' will show the reflog of 'HEAD' and not the reflog of the current branch. This is most likely due to the work done a while ago as part of the detached HEAD series to allow HEAD to have its own reflog independent of each branch's reflog. Since 'git reflog show' is really just an obscure alias for 'git log -g --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline' it should behave the same way and its documentation should match. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-08-19Include recent command history in fast-import crash reportsLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-4/+58
When we crash the frontend developer (or end-user) may need to know roughly around what part of the input stream we had a problem with and aborted on. Because line numbers aren't very useful in this sort of application we instead just keep the last 100 commands in a FIFO queue and print them as part of the crash report. Currently one problem with this design is a commit that has more than 100 modified files in it will flood the FIFO and any context regarding branch/from/committer/mark/comments will be lost. We really should save only the last few (10?) file changes for the current commit, ensuring we have some prior higher level commands in the FIFO when we crash on a file M/D/C/R command. Another issue with this approach is the FIFO only includes the commands, it does not include the commit messages. Yet having a commit message may be useful to help locate the relevant change in the source material. In practice I don't think this is going to be a major concern as the frontend can always embed its own source change set identifier as a comment (which will appear in the crash report) and the commit message(s) for the most recent commits of any given branch should be obtainable from the (packed) commit objects.

2007-08-19Generate crash reports on die in fast-importLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+93
As fast-import is quite strict about its input and die()'s anytime something goes wrong it can be difficult for a frontend developer to troubleshoot why fast-import rejected their input, or to even determine what input command it rejected. This change introduces a custom handler for Git's die() routine. When we receive a die() for any reason (fast-import or a lower level core Git routine we called) the error is first dumped onto stderr and then a more extensive crash report file is prepared in GIT_DIR. Finally we exit the process with status 128, just like the stock builtin die handler. An internal flag is set to prevent any further die()'s that may be invoked during the crash report generator from causing us to enter into an infinite loop. We shouldn't die() from our crash report handler, but just in case someone makes a future code change we are prepared to gaurd against small mistakes turning into huge problems for the end-user.

2007-08-19Allow frontends to bidirectionally communicate with fast-importLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce3-0/+84
The existing checkpoint command is very useful to force fast-import to dump the branches out to disk so that standard Git tools can access them and the objects they refer to. However there was not a way to know when fast-import had finished executing the checkpoint and it was safe to read those refs. The progress command can be used to make fast-import output any message of the frontend's choosing to standard out. The frontend can scan for these messages using select() or poll() to monitor a pipe connected to the standard output of fast-import. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-08-19Make trailing LF optional for all fast-import commandsLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce3-17/+74
For the same reasons as the prior change we want to allow frontends to omit the trailing LF that usually delimits commands. In some cases these just make the input stream more verbose looking than it needs to be, and its just simpler for the frontend developer to get started if our parser is slightly more lenient about where an LF is required and where it isn't. To make this optional LF feature work we now have to buffer up to one line of input in command_buf. This buffering can happen if we look at the current input command but don't recognize it at this point in the code. In such a case we need to "unget" the entire line, but we cannot depend upon the stdio library to let us do ungetc() for that many characters at once. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-08-19Make trailing LF following fast-import `data` commands optionalLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce3-5/+39
A few fast-import frontend developers have found it odd that we require the LF following a `data` command, especially in the exact byte count format. Technically we don't need this LF to parse the stream properly, but having it here does make the stream more readable to humans. We can easily make the LF optional by peeking at the next byte available from the stream and pushing it back into the buffer if its not LF. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-08-19Teach fast-import to ignore lines starting with '#'Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce3-2/+69
Several frontend developers have asked that some form of stream comments be permitted within a fast-import data stream. This way they can include information from their own frontend program about where specific data was taken from in the source system, or about a decision that their frontend may have made while creating the fast-import data stream. This change introduces comments in the Bourne-shell/Tcl/Perl style. Lines starting with '#' are ignored, up to and including the LF. Unlike the above mentioned three languages however we do not look for and ignore leading whitespace. This just simplifies the definition of the comment format and the code that parses them. To make comments work we had to stop using read_next_command() within cmd_data() and directly invoke read_line() during the inline variant of the function. This is necessary to retain any lines of the input data that might otherwise look like a comment to fast-import. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
2007-08-19Use handy ALLOC_GROW macro in fast-import when possibleLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-6/+1

2007-08-19Actually allow TAG_FIXUP branches in fast-importLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce2-1/+52
Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> noticed while debugging a Git backend for cvs2svn that fast-import was barfing when he tried to use "TAG_FIXUP" as a branch name for temporary work needed to cleanup the tree prior to creating an annotated tag object. The reason we were rejecting the branch name was check_ref_format() returns -2 when there are less than 2 '/' characters in the input name. TAG_FIXUP has 0 '/' characters, but is technically just as valid of a ref as HEAD and MERGE_HEAD, so we really should permit it (and any other similar looking name) during import. New test cases have been added to make sure we still detect very wrong branch names (e.g. containing [ or starting with .) and yet still permit reasonable names (e.g. TAG_FIXUP).

This is in line with the way we always allowed low-level tools to operate in sparsely checked out work tree in a reasonable way.

2007-08-14diff: squelch empty diffs even moreLibravatar René Scharfe3-3/+9
When we compare two non-tracked files, or explicitly specify --no-index, the suggestion to run git-status is not helpful. The patch adds a new diff_options bitfield member, no_index, that is used instead of the special value of -2 of the rev_info field max_count to indicate that the index is not to be used. This makes it possible to pass that flag down to diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch(), which only has one diff_options parameter. This could even become a cleanup if we removed all assignments of max_count to a value of -2 (viz. replacement of a magic value with a self-documenting field name) but I didn't dare to do that so late in the rc game.. The no_index bit, if set, then tells diffcore_skip_stat_unmatch() to not account for any skipped stat-mismatches, which avoids the suggestion to run git-status.

2007-08-14merge-recursive: do not rudely die on binary mergeLibravatar Junio C Hamano2-23/+95
When you try to merge a path that involves binary file-level merge, merge-recursive died rudely without cleaning up its own mess. A files added by the merge were left in the working tree, but the index was not written out (because it just punted and died), so it was cumbersome for the user to retry it by first running "git reset --hard". This changes merge-recursive to still warn but do the "binary" merge for such a path; leave the "our" version in the working tree, but still keep the path unmerged so that the user can sort it out.
