2014-02-10gc: config option for running --auto in backgroundLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy3-5/+23
`gc --auto` takes time and can block the user temporarily (but not any less annoyingly). Make it run in background on systems that support it. The only thing lost with running in background is printouts. But gc output is not really interesting. You can keep it in foreground by changing gc.autodetach.

2014-01-17Merge branch 'nd/shallow-clone'Libravatar Junio C Hamano36-168/+1535
Fetching from a shallow-cloned repository used to be forbidden, primarily because the codepaths involved were not carefully vetted and we did not bother supporting such usage.

2014-01-17pull: suppress error when no remoteref is foundLibravatar John Keeping1-1/+1
Commit 48059e4 (pull: use merge-base --fork-point when appropriate, 2013-12-08) incorrectly assumes that get_remote_merge_branch will either yield a non-empty string or return an error, but there are circumstances where it will yield an empty string. The previous code then invoked git-rev-list with no arguments, which results in an error suppressed by redirecting stderr to /dev/null. Now we invoke git-merge-base with an empty branch name, which also results in an error. Suppress this in the same way.

2014-01-17git-svn: workaround for a bug in svn serf backendLibravatar Roman Kagan1-2/+8
Subversion serf backend in versions 1.8.5 and below has a bug(*) that the function creating the descriptor of a file change -- add_file() -- doesn't make a copy of its third argument when storing it on the returned descriptor. As a result, by the time this field is used (in transactions of file copying or renaming) it may well be released, and the memory reused. One of its possible manifestations is the svn assertion triggering on an invalid path, with a message svn_fspath__skip_ancestor: Assertion `svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed. This patch works around this bug, by storing the value to be passed as the third argument to add_file() in a local variable with the same scope as the file change descriptor, making sure their lifetime is the same. * [ew: fixed in Subversion r1553376 as noted by Jonathan Nieder] Cc: Benjamin Pabst <benjamin.pabst85@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Roman Kagan <rkagan@mail.ru>

When parsing a 40-hex string into the object name, the string is checked to see if it can be interpreted as a ref so that a warning can be given for ambiguity. The code kicked in even when the core.warnambiguousrefs is set to false to squelch this warning, in which case the cycles spent to look at the ref namespace were an expensive no-op, as the result was discarded without being used. * br/sha1-name-40-hex-no-disambiguation: sha1_name: don't resolve refs when core.warnambiguousrefs is false

2014-01-13t5531: further "matching" fixupsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
Commit 43eb920 switched one of the sub-repository in this test to matching to prepare for a world where the default becomes "simple". However, the main repository needs a similar change. We did not notice any test failure when merged with b2ed944 (push: switch default from "matching" to "simple", 2013-01-04) because t5531.6 is trying to provoke a failure of "git push" due to a submodule check. When combined with b2ed944 the push still fails, but for the wrong reason (because our upstream setup does not exist, not because of the submodule).

2014-01-10diff test: reading a directory as a file need not error outLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-4/+0
There is no guarantee that strbuf_read_file must error out for directories. On some operating systems (e.g., Debian GNU/kFreeBSD wheezy), reading a directory gives its raw content: $ head -c5 < / | cat -A ^AM-|^_^@^L$ As a result, 'git diff -O/' succeeds instead of erroring out on these systems, causing t4056.5 "orderfile is a directory" to fail. On some weird OS it might even make sense to pass a directory to the -O option and this is not a common user mistake that needs catching. Remove the test.

2014-01-10mv: let 'git mv file no-such-dir/' error out on Windows, tooLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-0/+2
The previous commit c57f628 (mv: let 'git mv file no-such-dir/' error out) relies on that rename("file", "no-such-dir/") fails if the directory does not exist (note the trailing slash). This does not work as expected on Windows: This rename() call does not fail, but renames "file" to "no-such-dir" (not to "no-such-dir/file"). Insert an explicit check for this case to force an error. This changes the error message from $ git mv file no-such-dir/ fatal: renaming 'file' failed: Not a directory to $ git mv file no-such-dir/ fatal: destination directory does not exist, source=file, destination=no-such-dir/ Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt <j6t@kdbg.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
