2018-05-23Merge branch 'en/rename-directory-detection-reboot'Libravatar Junio C Hamano11-178/+6092
Rename detection logic in "diff" family that is used in "merge" has learned to guess when all of x/a, x/b and x/c have moved to z/a, z/b and z/c, it is likely that x/d added in the meantime would also want to move to z/d by taking the hint that the entire directory 'x' moved to 'z'. A bug causing dirty files involved in a rename to be overwritten during merge has also been fixed as part of this work.

2018-05-21get_main_ref_store: BUG() when outside a repositoryLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
If we don't have a repository, then we can't initialize the ref store. Prior to 64a741619d (refs: store the main ref store inside the repository struct, 2018-04-11), we'd try to access get_git_dir(), and outside a repository that would trigger a BUG(). After that commit, though, we directly use the_repository->git_dir; if it's NULL we'll just segfault. Let's catch this case and restore the BUG() behavior. Obviously we don't ever want to hit this code, but a BUG() is a lot more helpful than a segfault if we do. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The last two tests 'editor with a space' and 'core.editor with a space' in 't7005-editor.sh' need the SPACES_IN_FILENAMES prereq to ensure that they are only run on filesystems that allow, well, spaces in filenames. However, we have been putting a space in the name of the trash directory for just over a decade now, so we wouldn't be able to run any of our tests on such a filesystem in the first place.

2018-05-13column: fix off-by-one default widthLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2-2/+1
By default we want to fill the whole screen if possible, but we do not want to use up _all_ terminal columns because the last character is going hit the border, push the cursor over and wrap. Keep it at default value zero, which will make print_columns() set the width at term_columns() - 1. This affects the test in t7004 because effective column width before was 40 but now 39 so we need to compensate it by one or the output at 39 columns has a different layout.

2018-05-13pager: set COLUMNS to term_columns()Libravatar Jeff King1-3/+8
After we invoke the pager, our stdout goes to a pipe, not the terminal, meaning we can no longer use an ioctl to get the terminal width. For that reason, ad6c3739a3 (pager: find out the terminal width before spawning the pager, 2012-02-12) started caching the terminal width. But that cache is only an in-process variable. Any programs we spawn will also not be able to run that ioctl, but won't have access to our cache. They'll end up falling back to our 80-column default. You can see the problem with: git tag --column=row Since git-tag spawns a pager these days, its spawned git-column helper will see neither the terminal on stdout nor a useful COLUMNS value (assuming you do not export it from your shell already). And you'll end up with 80-column output in the pager, regardless of your terminal size. We can fix this by setting COLUMNS right before spawning the pager. That fixes this case, as well as any more complicated ones (e.g., a paged program spawns another script which then generates columnized output).

The current document mentions OBJ_* constants without their actual values.

In a while-at-it cleanup replacing a 'cd dir && <...> && cd ..' with a subshell, commit 28391a80a9 (receive-pack: allow deletion of corrupt refs, 2007-11-29) also moved the assignment of the $old_commit variable to that subshell. This variable, however, is used outside of that subshell as a parameter of check_push_result(), to check that a ref still points to the commit where it is supposed to. With the variable remaining unset outside the subshell check_push_result() doesn't perform that check at all. Use 'git -C <dir> cmd...', so we don't need to change directory, and thus don't need the subshell either when setting $old_commit. Furthermore, change check_push_result() to require at least three parameters (the repo, the oid, and at least one ref), so it will catch similar issues earlier should they ever arise.

The two JGit tests 'we can read jgit bitmaps' and 'jgit can read our bitmaps' in 't5310-pack-bitmaps.sh' fail when run with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX=YesPlease. Both tests create a clone of the test repository to check bitmap interoperability with JGit. With split indexes enabled the index in the clone repositories contains the 'link' extension, which JGit doesn't support and, consequently, an exception aborts it: <...> org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.JGitInternalException: DIRC extension 'link' not supported by this version. at org.eclipse.jgit.dircache.DirCache.readFrom(DirCache.java:562) <...> Since testing bitmaps doesn't need a worktree in the first place, let's just create bare clones for the two JGit tests, so the cloned won't have an index, and these two tests can be executed even with split index enabled.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: fix check for skipability of working tree updatesLibravatar Elijah Newren4-23/+39
The can-working-tree-updates-be-skipped check has had a long and blemished history. The update can be skipped iff: a) The merge is clean b) The merge matches what was in HEAD (content, mode, pathname) c) The target path is usable (i.e. not involved in D/F conflict) Traditionally, we split b into parts: b1) The merged result matches the content and mode found in HEAD b2) The merged target path existed in HEAD Steps a & b1 are easy to check; we have always gotten those right. While it is easy to overlook step c, this was fixed seven years ago with commit 4ab9a157d069 ("merge_content(): Check whether D/F conflicts are still present", 2010-09-20). merge-recursive didn't have a readily available way to directly check step b2, so various approximations were used: * In commit b2c8c0a76274 ("merge-recursive: When we detect we can skip an update, actually skip it", 2011-02-28), it was noted that although the code claimed it was skipping the update, it did not actually skip the update. The code was made to skip it, but used lstat(path, ...) as an approximation to path-was-tracked-in-index-before-merge. * In commit 5b448b853030 ("merge-recursive: When we detect we can skip an update, actually skip it", 2011-08-11), the problem with using lstat was noted. It was changed to the approximation path2 && strcmp(path, path2) which is also wrong. !path2 || strcmp(path, path2) would have been better, but would have fallen short with directory renames. * In c5b761fb2711 ("merge-recursive: ensure we write updates for directory-renamed file", 2018-02-14), the problem with the previous approximation was noted and changed to was_tracked(path) That looks close to what we were trying to answer, but was_tracked() as implemented at the time should have been named is_tracked(); it returned something different than what we were looking for. * To make matters more complex, fixing was_tracked() isn't sufficient because the splitting of b into b1 and b2 is wrong. Consider the following merge with a rename/add conflict: side A: modify foo, add unrelated bar side B: rename foo->bar (but don't modify the mode or contents) In this case, the three-way merge of original foo, A's foo, and B's bar will result in a desired pathname of bar with the same mode/contents that A had for foo. Thus, A had the right mode and contents for the file, and it had the right pathname present (namely, bar), but the bar that was present was unrelated to the contents, so the working tree update was not skippable. Fix this by introducing a new function: was_tracked_and_matches(o, path, &mfi.oid, mfi.mode) and use it to directly check for condition b.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: make "Auto-merging" comment show for other mergesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-26/+39
Previously, merge_content() would print "Auto-merging" whenever the final content and mode aren't already available from HEAD. There are a few problems with this: 1) There are other code paths doing merges that should probably have the same message printed, in particular rename/rename(2to1) which cannot call into the normal rename logic. 2) If both sides of the merge have modifications, then a content merge is needed. It may turn out that the end result matches one of the sides (because the other only had a subset of the same changes), but the merge was still needed. Currently, the message will not print in that case, though it seems like it should. Move the printing of this message to merge_file_1() in order to address both issues.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: fix remainder of was_dirty() to use original indexLibravatar Elijah Newren1-3/+3
was_dirty() uses was_tracked(), which has been updated to use the original index rather than the current one. However, was_dirty() also had a separate call to cache_file_exists(), causing it to still implicitly use the current index. Update that to instead use index_file_exists(). Also, was_dirty() had a hack where it would mark any file as non-dirty if we simply didn't know its modification time. This was due to using the current index rather than the original index, because D/F conflicts and such would cause unpack_trees() to not copy the modification times from the original index to the current one. Now that we are using the original index, we can dispense with this hack. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-05-08merge-recursive: fix was_tracked() to quit lying with some renamed pathsLibravatar Elijah Newren2-24/+68
In commit aacb82de3ff8 ("merge-recursive: Split was_tracked() out of would_lose_untracked()", 2011-08-11), was_tracked() was split out of would_lose_untracked() with the intent to provide a function that could answer whether a path was tracked in the index before the merge. Sadly, it instead returned whether the path was in the working tree due to having been tracked in the index before the merge OR having been written there by unpack_trees(). The distinction is important when renames are involved, e.g. for a merge where: HEAD: modifies path b other: renames b->c In this case, c was not tracked in the index before the merge, but would have been added to the index at stage 0 and written to the working tree by unpack_trees(). would_lose_untracked() is more interested in the in-working-copy-for-either-reason behavior, while all other uses of was_tracked() want just was-it-tracked-in-index-before-merge behavior. Unsplit would_lose_untracked() and write a new was_tracked() function which answers whether a path was tracked in the index before the merge started. This will also affect was_dirty(), helping it to return better results since it can base answers off the original index rather than an index that possibly only copied over some of the stat information. However, was_dirty() will need an additional change that will be made in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-05-08t6046: testcases checking whether updates can be skipped in a mergeLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+761
Add several tests checking whether updates can be skipped in a merge. Also add several similar testcases for where updates cannot be skipped in a merge to make sure that we skip if and only if we should. In particular: * Testcase 1a (particularly 1a-check-L) would have pointed out the problem Linus has been dealing with for year with his merges[1]. * Testcase 2a (particularly 2a-check-L) would have pointed out the problem with my directory-rename-series before it broke master[2]. * Testcases 3[ab] (particularly 3a-check-L) provide a simpler testcase than 12b of t6043 making that one easier to understand. * There are several complementary testcases to make sure we're not just fixing those particular issues while regressing in the opposite direction. * There are also a pair of tests for the special case when a merge results in a skippable update AND the user has dirty modifications to the path.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: avoid triggering add_cacheinfo error with dirty modLibravatar Elijah Newren2-2/+2
If a cherry-pick or merge with a rename results in a skippable update (due to the merged content matching what HEAD already had), but the working directory is dirty, avoid trying to refresh the index as that will fail.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: move more is_dirty handling to merge_contentLibravatar Elijah Newren1-18/+12
conflict_rename_normal() was doing some handling for dirty files that more naturally belonged in merge_content. Move it, and rename a parameter for clarity while at it. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-05-08merge-recursive: improve add_cacheinfo error handlingLibravatar Elijah Newren2-9/+11
Four closely related changes all with the purpose of fixing error handling in this function: - fix reported function name in add_cacheinfo error messages - differentiate between the two error messages - abort early when we hit the error (stop ignoring return code) - mark a test which was hitting this error as failing until we get the right fix In more detail... In commit 0424138d5715 ("Fix bogus error message from merge-recursive error path", 2007-04-01), it was noted that the name of the function which the error message claimed it was reported from did not match the actual function name. This was changed to something closer to the real function name, but it still didn't match the actual function name. Fix the reported name to match. Second, the two errors in this function had identical messages, preventing us from knowing which error had been triggered. Add a couple words to the second error message to differentiate the two. Next, make sure callers do not ignore the return code so that it will stop processing further entries (processing further entries could result in more output which could cause the error to scroll off the screen, or at least be missed by the user) and make it clear the error is the cause of the early abort. These errors should never be triggered in production; if either one is, it represents a bug in the calling path somewhere and is likely to have resulted in mis-merged content. The combination of ignoring of the return code and continuing to print other standard messages after hitting the error resulted in the following bug report from Junio: "...the command pretends that everything went well and merged cleanly in that path...[Behaving] in a buggy and unexplainable way is bad enough, doing so silently is unexcusable." Fix this. Finally, there was one test in the testsuite that did hit this error path, but was passing anyway. This would have been easy to miss since it had a test_must_fail and thus could have failed for the wrong reason, but in a separate testing step I added an intentional NULL-dereference to the codepath where these error messages are printed in order to flush out such cases. I could modify that test to explicitly check for this error and fail the test if it is hit, but since this test operates in a bit of a gray area and needed other changes, I went for a different fix. The gray area this test operates in is the following: If the merge of a certain file results in the same version of the file that existed in HEAD, but there are dirty modifications to the file, is that an error with a "Refusing to overwrite existing file" expected, or a case where the merge should succeed since we shouldn't have to touch the dirty file anyway? Recent discussion on the list leaned towards saying it should be a success. Therefore, change the expected behavior of this test to match. As a side effect, this makes the failed-due-to-hitting-add_cacheinfo-error very clear, and we can mark the test as test_expect_failure. A subsequent commit will implement the necessary changes to get this test to pass again. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-05-08merge-recursive: avoid spurious rename/rename conflict from dir renamesLibravatar Elijah Newren2-32/+27
If a file on one side of history was renamed, and merely modified on the other side, then applying a directory rename to the modified side gives us a rename/rename(1to2) conflict. We should only apply directory renames to pairs representing either adds or renames. Making this change means that a directory rename testcase that was previously reported as a rename/delete conflict will now be reported as a modify/delete conflict.

2018-05-08directory rename detection: new testcases showcasing a pair of bugsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+296
Add a testcase showing spurious rename/rename(1to2) conflicts occurring due to directory rename detection. Also add a pair of testcases dealing with moving directory hierarchies around that were suggested by Stefan Beller as "food for thought" during his review of an earlier patch series, but which actually uncovered a bug. Round things out with a test that is a cross between the two testcases that showed existing bugs in order to make sure we aren't merely addressing problems in isolation but in general.
