2007-04-10sha1_file.c: learn about index version 2Libravatar Nicolas Pitre1-29/+89
With this patch, packs larger than 4GB are usable, even on a 32-bit machine (at least on Linux). If off_t is not large enough to deal with a large pack then die() is called instead of attempting to use the pack and producing garbage. This was tested with a 8GB pack specially created for the occasion on a 32-bit machine. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-04-10index-pack: learn about pack index version 2Libravatar Nicolas Pitre1-9/+57
Like previous patch but for index-pack. [ There is quite some code duplication between pack-objects and index-pack for generating a pack index (and fast-import as well I suppose). This should be reworked into a common function eventually. But not now. ] Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-04-10pack-objects: learn about pack index version 2Libravatar Nicolas Pitre1-12/+87
Pack index version 2 goes as follows: - 8 bytes of header with signature and version. - 256 entries of 4-byte first-level fan-out table. - Table of sorted 20-byte SHA1 records for each object in pack. - Table of 4-byte CRC32 entries for raw pack object data. - Table of 4-byte offset entries for objects in the pack if offset is representable with 31 bits or less, otherwise it is an index in the next table with top bit set. - Table of 8-byte offset entries indexed from previous table for offsets which are 32 bits or more (optional). - 20-byte SHA1 checksum of sorted object names. - 20-byte SHA1 checksum of the above. The object SHA1 table is all contiguous so future pack format that would contain this table directly won't require big changes to the code. It is also tighter for slightly better cache locality when looking up entries. Support for large packs exceeding 31 bits in size won't impose an index size bloat for packs within that range that don't need a 64-bit offset. And because newer objects which are likely to be the most frequently used are located at the beginning of the pack, they won't pay the 64-bit offset lookup at run time either even if the pack is large. Right now an index version 2 is created only when the biggest offset in a pack reaches 31 bits. It might be a good idea to always use index version 2 eventually to benefit from the CRC32 it contains when reusing pack data while repacking. [jc: with the "oops" fix to keep track of the last offset correctly] Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-04-10compute a CRC32 for each object as stored in a packLibravatar Nicolas Pitre3-0/+24
The most important optimization for performance when repacking is the ability to reuse data from a previous pack as is and bypass any delta or even SHA1 computation by simply copying the raw data from one pack to another directly. The problem with this is that any data corruption within a copied object would go unnoticed and the new (repacked) pack would be self-consistent with its own checksum despite containing a corrupted object. This is a real issue that already happened at least once in the past. In some attempt to prevent this, we validate the copied data by inflating it and making sure no error is signaled by zlib. But this is still not perfect as a significant portion of a pack content is made of object headers and references to delta base objects which are not deflated and therefore not validated when repacking actually making the pack data reuse still not as safe as it could be. Of course a full SHA1 validation could be performed, but that implies full data inflating and delta replaying which is extremely costly, which cost the data reuse optimization was designed to avoid in the first place. So the best solution to this is simply to store a CRC32 of the raw pack data for each object in the pack index. This way any object in a pack can be validated before being copied as is in another pack, including header and any other non deflated data. Why CRC32 instead of a faster checksum like Adler32? Quoting Wikipedia: Jonathan Stone discovered in 2001 that Adler-32 has a weakness for very short messages. He wrote "Briefly, the problem is that, for very short packets, Adler32 is guaranteed to give poor coverage of the available bits. Don't take my word for it, ask Mark Adler. :-)" The problem is that sum A does not wrap for short messages. The maximum value of A for a 128-byte message is 32640, which is below the value 65521 used by the modulo operation. An extended explanation can be found in RFC 3309, which mandates the use of CRC32 instead of Adler-32 for SCTP, the Stream Control Transmission Protocol. In the context of a GIT pack, we have lots of small objects, especially deltas, which are likely to be quite small and in a size range for which Adler32 is dimed not to be sufficient. Another advantage of CRC32 is the possibility for recovery from certain types of small corruptions like single bit errors which are the most probable type of corruptions. OK what this patch does is to compute the CRC32 of each object written to a pack within pack-objects. It is not written to the index yet and it is obviously not validated when reusing pack data yet either. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-04-10add overflow tests on pack offset variablesLibravatar Nicolas Pitre3-16/+34
Change a few size and offset variables to more appropriate type, then add overflow tests on those offsets. This prevents any bad data to be generated/processed if off_t happens to not be large enough to handle some big packs. Better be safe than sorry.

2007-04-10make overflow test on delta base offset work regardless of variable sizeLibravatar Nicolas Pitre5-4/+12
This patch introduces the MSB() macro to obtain the desired number of most significant bits from a given variable independently of the variable type. It is then used to better implement the overflow test on the OBJ_OFS_DELTA base offset variable with the property of always working correctly regardless of the type/size of that variable.

2007-04-10get rid of num_packed_objects()Libravatar Nicolas Pitre7-22/+17
The coming index format change doesn't allow for the number of objects to be determined from the size of the index file directly. Instead, Let's initialize a field in the packed_git structure with the object count when the index is validated since the count is always known at that point. While at it let's reorder some struct packed_git fields to avoid padding due to needed 64-bit alignment for some of them.

When patches are merged from another git-svn managed branch, they will have the git-svn-id: metadata line in them (generated by git-format-patch).

2007-04-07A new merge stragety 'subtree'.Libravatar Junio C Hamano7-3/+373
This merge strategy largely piggy-backs on git-merge-recursive. When merging trees A and B, if B corresponds to a subtree of A, B is first adjusted to match the tree structure of A, instead of reading the trees at the same level. This adjustment is also done to the common ancestor tree. If you are pulling updates from git-gui repository into git.git repository, the root level of the former corresponds to git-gui/ subdirectory of the latter. The tree object of git-gui's toplevel is wrapped in a fake tree object, whose sole entry has name 'git-gui' and records object name of the true tree, before being used by the 3-way merge code. If you are merging the other way, only the git-gui/ subtree of git.git is extracted and merged into git-gui's toplevel. The detection of corresponding subtree is done by comparing the pathnames and types in the toplevel of the tree. Heuristics galore! That's the git way ;-).

This came up on #git when somebody was getting 'unable to create ./objects/tmp_oXXXX' but sweared he had write permission to that directory. It turned out that the repository URL was changed and he was accessing a repository he does not have a write permission anymore. I am not sure how much this would have helped somebody who believed he was accessing location when the permission of that location was changed while he was looking the other way, though. But giving more information on the error path would be better, and the next change would be helped with this as well. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
