2007-12-03install-sh from automake does not like -m without delimiting spaceLibravatar Robert Schiele3-11/+11

2007-12-03git-commit --allow-emptyLibravatar Junio C Hamano3-4/+24
It does not usually make sense to record a commit that has the exact same tree as its sole parent commit and that is why git-commit prevents you from making such a mistake, but when data from foreign scm is involved, it is a different story. We are equipped to represent such an (perhaps insane, perhaps by mistake, or perhaps done on purpose) empty change, and it is better to represent it bypassing the safety valve for native use. This is primarily for use by foreign scm interface scripts. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-12-03git-commit: Allow to amend a merge commit that does not change the treeLibravatar Johannes Sixt2-3/+38
Normally, it should not be allowed to generate an empty commit. A merge commit generated with git 'merge -s ours' does not change the tree (along the first parent), but merges are not "empty" even if they do not change the tree. Hence, commit 8588452ceb7 allowed to amend a merge commit that does not change the tree, but 4fb5fd5d301 disallowed it again in an attempt to avoid that an existing commit is amended such that it becomes empty. With this change, a commit can be edited (create a new one or amend an existing one) either if there are changes or if there are at least two parents.

This program dumps (parts of) a git repository in the format that fast-import understands. For clarity's sake, it does not use the 'inline' method of specifying blobs in the commits, but builds the blobs before building the commits. Since signed tags' signatures will not necessarily be valid (think transformations after the export, or excluding revisions, changing the history), there are 4 modes to handle them: abort (default), ignore, warn and strip. The latter just turns the tags into unsigned ones. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

show-externals can be used by scripts to provide svn:externals-like functionality. For example, a script can list all of the externals and then use check out the listed URLs at the appropriate paths, similar to what the svn client does. Said script (or perhaps git-svn itself, in the future) could simply invoke svn export on the paths, or it could go one further, using git-svn clone and even git-submodule together to better integrate externals checkouts. The implementation is shamelessly copied from show-ignores. A more general command to list user-specified properties is probably a better idea.

2007-11-30Fix a pathological case in git detecting proper renamesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+13
On Thu, 29 Nov 2007, Jeff King wrote: > > I think it will get worse, because you are simultaneously calculating > all of the similarity scores bit by bit rather than doing a loop. Though > perhaps you mean at the end you will end up with a list of src/dst pairs > sorted by score, and you can loop over that. Well, after thinking about this a bit, I think there's a solution that may work well with the current thing too: instead of looping just *once* over the list of rename pairs, loop twice - and simply refuse to do copies on the first loop. This trivial patch does that, and turns Kumar's test-case into a perfect rename list. It's not pretty, it's not smart, but it seems to work. There's something to be said for keeping it simple and stupid. And it should not be nearly as expensive as it may _look_. Yes, the loop is "(i = 0; i < num_create * num_src; i++)", but the important part is that the whole array is sorted by rename score, and we have a if (mx[i].score < minimum_score) break; in it, so uthe loop actually would tend to terminate rather quickly. Anyway, Kumar, the thing to take away from this is: - git really doesn't even *care* about the whole "rename detection" internally, and any commits you have done with renames are totally independent of the heuristics we then use to *show* the renames. - the rename detection really is for just two reasons: (a) keep humans happy, and keep the diffs small and (b) help automatic merging across renames. So getting renames right is certainly good, but it's more of a "politeness" issue than a "correctness" issue, although the merge portion of it does matter a lot sometimes. - the important thing here is that you can commit your changes and not worry about them being somehow "corrupted" by lack of rename detection, even if you commit them with a version of git that doesn't do rename detection the way you expected it. The rename detection is an "after-the-fact" thing, not something that actually gets saved in the repository, which is why we can change the heuristics _after_ seeing examples, and the examples magically correct themselves! - try out the two patches I've posted, and see if they work for you. They pass the test-suite, and the output for your example commit looks sane, but hey, if you have other test-cases, try them out.

2007-11-30Fix a pathological case in git detecting proper renamesLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-9/+16
Kumar Gala had a case in the u-boot archive with multiple renames of files with identical contents, and git would turn those into multiple "copy" operations of one of the sources, and just deleting the other sources. This patch makes the git exact rename detection prefer to spread out the renames over the multiple sources, rather than do multiple copies of one source. NOTE! The changes are a bit larger than required, because I also renamed the variables named "one" and "two" to "target" and "source" respectively. That makes the logic easier to follow, especially as the "one" was illogically the target and not the soruce, for purely historical reasons (this piece of code used to traverse over sources and targets in the wrong order, and when we fixed that, we didn't fix the names back then. So I fixed them now). The important part of this change is just the trivial score calculations for when files have identical contents: /* Give higher scores to sources that haven't been used already */ score = !source->rename_used; score += basename_same(source, target); and when we have multiple choices we'll now pick the choice that gets the best rename score, rather than only looking at whether the basename matched. It's worth noting a few gotchas: - this scoring is currently only done for the "exact match" case. In particular, in Kumar's example, even after this patch, the inexact match case is still done as a copy+delete rather than as two renames: delete mode 100644 board/cds/mpc8555cds/u-boot.lds copy board/{cds => freescale}/mpc8541cds/u-boot.lds (97%) rename board/{cds/mpc8541cds => freescale/mpc8555cds}/u-boot.lds (97%) because apparently the "cds/mpc8541cds/u-boot.lds" copy looked a bit more similar to both end results. That said, I *suspect* we just have the exact same issue there - the similarity analysis just gave identical (or at least very _close_ to identical) similarity points, and we do not have any logic to prefer multiple renames over a copy/delete there. That is a separate patch. - When you have identical contents and identical basenames, the actual entry that is chosen is still picked fairly "at random" for the first one (but the subsequent ones will prefer entries that haven't already been used). It's not actually really random, in that it actually depends on the relative alphabetical order of the files (which in turn will have impacted the order that the entries got hashed!), so it gives consistent results that can be explained. But I wanted to point it out as an issue for when anybody actually does cross-renames. In Kumar's case the choice is the right one (and for a single normal directory rename it should always be, since the relative alphabetical sorting of the files will be identical), and we now get: rename board/{cds => freescale}/mpc8541cds/init.S (100%) rename board/{cds => freescale}/mpc8548cds/init.S (100%) which is the "expected" answer. However, it might still be better to change the pedantic "exact same basename" on/off choice into a more graduated "how similar are the pathnames" scoring situation, in order to be more likely to get the exact rename choice that people *expect* to see, rather than other alternatives that may *technically* be equally good, but are surprising to a human. It's also unclear whether we should consider "basenames are equal" or "have already used this as a source" to be more important. This gives them equal weight, but I suspect we might want to just multiple the "basenames are equal" weight by two, or something, to prefer equal basenames even if that causes a copy/delete pair. I dunno. Anyway, what I'm just saying in a really long-winded manner is that I think this is right as-is, but it's not the complete solution, and it may want some further tweaking in the future.

2007-11-30Add "--expire <time>" option to 'git prune'Libravatar Johannes Schindelin3-2/+42
Earlier, 'git prune' would prune all loose unreachable objects. This could be quite dangerous, as the objects could be used in an ongoing operation. This patch adds a mode to expire only loose, unreachable objects which are older than a certain time. For example, by git prune --expire 14.days you can prune only those objects which are loose, unreachable and older than 14 days (and thus probably outdated). The implementation uses st.st_mtime rather than st.st_ctime, because it can be tested better, using 'touch -d <time>' (and omitting the test when the platform does not support that command line switch).

2007-11-30cvsimport: fix usage of cvsimport.moduleLibravatar Jeff King2-4/+25
There were two problems: 1. We only look at the config variable if there is no module given on the command line. We checked this by comparing @ARGV == 0. However, at the time of the comparison, we have not yet parsed the dashed options, meaning that "git cvsimport" would read the variable but "git cvsimport -a" would not. This is fixed by simply moving the check after the call to getopt. 2. If the config variable did not exist, we were adding an empty string to @ARGV. The rest of the script, rather than barfing for insufficient input, would then try to import the module '', leading to rather confusing error messages. Based on patch from Emanuele Giaquinta.

2007-11-30receive-pack: allow deletion of corrupt refsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin2-3/+46
Occasionally, in some setups (*cough* forks on repo.or.cz *cough*) some refs go stale, e.g. when the forkee rebased and lost some objects needed by the fork. The quick & dirty way to deal with those refs is to delete them and push them again. However, git-push first would first fetch the current commit name for the ref, would receive a null sha1 since the ref does not point to a valid object, then tell receive-pack that it should delete the ref with this commit name. delete_ref() would be subsequently be called, and check that resolve_ref() (which does _not_ check for validity of the object) returns the same commit name. Which would fail. The proper fix is to avoid corrupting repositories, but in the meantime this is a good fix in any case. Incidentally, some instances of "cd .." in the test cases were fixed, so that subsequent test cases run in t/trash/ irrespective of the outcome of the previous test cases.
