"git merge $(git rev-parse v1.8.2)" behaved quite differently from "git merge v1.8.2", as if v1.8.2 were written as v1.8.2^0 and did not pay much attention to the annotated tag payload.

We signal presense of untracked files by adding a per-cent sign '%' to the prompt. But because '%' is used as an escape character to introduce prompt customization in zsh (just like bash prompt uses '\' to escape '\u', '\h', etc.), we need to say '%%' to get a literal per-cent.

2013-04-19receive-pack: close sideband fd on early pack errorsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+4
Since commit a22e6f8 (receive-pack: send pack-processing stderr over sideband, 2012-09-21), receive-pack will start an async sideband thread to copy the stderr from our index-pack or unpack-objects child to the client. We hand the thread's input descriptor to unpack(), which puts it in the "err" member of the "struct child_process". After unpack() returns, we use finish_async() to reap the sideband thread. The thread is only ready to die when it gets EOF on its pipe, which is connected to the err descriptor. So we expect all of the write ends of that pipe to be closed as part of unpack(). Normally, this works fine. After start_command forks, it closes the parent copy of the descriptor. Then once the child exits (whether it was successful or not), that closes the only remaining writer. However, there is one code-path in unpack() that does not handle this. Before we decide which of unpack-objects or index-pack to use, we read the pack header ourselves to see how many objects it contains. If there is an error here, we exit without running either sub-command, the pipe descriptor remains open, and we are in a deadlock, waiting for the sideband thread to die (which is in turn waiting for us to close the pipe). We can fix this by making sure that unpack() always closes the pipe before returning. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

split_ident_line() can leave us with the pointers date_begin, date_end, tz_begin and tz_end all set to NULL. Check them before use and supply the same fallback values as in the case of a negative return code from split_ident_line(). The "(unknown)" is not actually shown in the output, though, because it will be converted to a number (zero) eventually.

2013-04-17cat-file: print tags raw for "cat-file -p"Libravatar Jeff King2-75/+1
When "cat-file -p" prints commits, it shows them in their raw format, since git's format is already human-readable. For tags, however, we print the whole thing raw except for one thing: we convert the timestamp on the tagger line into a human-readable date. This dates all the way back to a0f15fa (Pretty-print tagger dates, 2006-03-01). At that time there was no other way to pretty-print a tag. These days, however, neither of those matters much. The normal way to pretty-print a tag is with "git show", which is much more flexible than "cat-file -p". Commit a0f15fa also built "verify-tag --verbose" (and subsequently "tag -v") around the "cat-file -p" output. However, that behavior was lost in commit 62e09ce (Make git tag a builtin, 2007-07-20), and we went back to printing the raw tag contents. Nobody seems to have noticed the bug since then (and it is arguably a saner behavior anyway, as it shows the actual bytes for which we verified the signature). Let's drop the tagger-date formatting for "cat-file -p". It makes us more consistent with cat-file's commit pretty-printer, and as a bonus, we can drop the hand-rolled tag parsing code in cat-file (which happened to behave inconsistently with the tag pretty-printing code elsewhere). This is a change of output format, so it's possible that some callers could considered this a regression. However, the original behavior was arguably a bug (due to the inconsistency with commits), likely nobody was relying on it (even we do not use it ourselves these days), and anyone relying on the "-p" pretty-printer should be able to expect a change in the output format (i.e., while "cat-file" is plumbing, the output format of "-p" was never guaranteed to be stable).

2013-04-16run-command: use thread-aware die_is_recursing routineLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+11
If we die from an async thread, we do not actually exit the program, but just kill the thread. This confuses the static counter in usage.c's default die_is_recursing function; it updates the counter once for the thread death, and then when the main program calls die() itself, it erroneously thinks we are recursing. The end result is that we print "recursion detected in die handler" instead of the real error in such a case (the easiest way to trigger this is having a remote connection hang up while running a sideband demultiplexer). This patch solves it by using a per-thread counter when the async_die function is installed; we detect recursion in each thread (including the main one), but they do not step on each other's toes. Other threaded code does not need to worry about this, as they do not install specialized die handlers; they just let a die() from a sub-thread take down the whole program. Since we are overriding the default recursion-check function, there is an interesting corner case that is not a problem, but bears some explanation. Imagine the main thread calls die(), and then in the die_routine starts an async call. We will switch to using thread-local storage, which starts at 0, for the main thread's counter, even though the original counter was actually at 1. That's OK, though, for two reasons: 1. It would miss only the first level of recursion, and would still find recursive failures inside the async helper. 2. We do not currently and are not likely to start doing anything as heavyweight as starting an async routine from within a die routine or helper function.

2013-04-16usage: allow pluggable die-recursion checksLibravatar Jeff King2-6/+15
When any git code calls die or die_errno, we use a counter to detect recursion into the die functions from any of the helper functions. However, such a simple counter is not good enough for threaded programs, which may call die from a sub-thread, killing only the sub-thread (but incrementing the counter for everyone). Rather than try to deal with threads ourselves here, let's just allow callers to plug in their own recursion-detection function. This is similar to how we handle the die routine (the caller plugs in a die routine which may kill only the sub-thread).

2013-04-15glossary: improve definitions of refspec and pathspecLibravatar Thomas Ackermann1-23/+10
The exact definition of "refspec" can be found in git-fetch and git-push manpages. So don't duplicate this here in the glossary. Actually the definition of "pathspec" should be moved to a separate file akin to the way it's done with "refspec". But this will only be wortwhile when there's more to say about it. So for the time being just improve the first sentence a little bit; fix the indentation of the first paragraph after the bullet list and remove the one-item list of magic signatures with its - for the user - unnecessary introduction of "magic word 'top'".

The flow of the text describing GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM and GITWEB_CONFIG_COMMON in gitweb/INSTALL is awkward. "This is bad. Oh the other hand, better is broken. Therefore we do this." forces readers to make multiple guesses while reading: "ok, bad, so you plan to change it and warn us about upcoming change? oh, not that, changing it is bad, so we have to live with it? oh, not that, there is another one that is common and that is what we can use".
