2012-04-03Use SHELL_PATH from build system in run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmdLibravatar Ben Walton2-1/+12
During the testing of the 1.7.10 rc series on Solaris for OpenCSW, it was discovered that t7006-pager was failing due to finding a bad "sh" in PATH after a call to execvp("sh", ...). This call was setup by run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmd. The PATH in use at the time saw /opt/csw/bin given precedence to traditional Solaris paths such as /usr/bin and /usr/xpg4/bin. A package named schilyutils (Joerg Schilling's utilities) was installed on the build system and it delivered a modified version of the traditional Solaris /usr/bin/sh as /opt/csw/bin/sh. This version of sh suffers from many of the same problems as /usr/bin/sh. The command-specific pager test failed due to the broken "sh" handling ^ as a pipe character. It tried to fork two processes when it encountered "sed s/^/foo:/" as the pager command. This problem was entirely dependent on the PATH of the user at runtime. Possible fixes for this issue are: 1. Use the standard system() or popen() which both launch a POSIX shell on Solaris as long as _POSIX_SOURCE is defined. 2. The git wrapper could prepend SANE_TOOL_PATH to PATH thus forcing all unqualified commands run to use the known good tools on the system. 3. The run_command.c:prepare_shell_command() could use the same SHELL_PATH that is in the #! line of all all scripts and not rely on PATH to find the sh to run. Option 1 would preclude opening a bidirectional pipe to a filter script and would also break git for Windows as cmd.exe is spawned from system() (cf. v1.7.5-rc0~144^2, "alias: use run_command api to execute aliases, 2011-01-07). Option 2 is not friendly to users as it would negate their ability to use tools of their choice in many cases. Alternately, injecting SANE_TOOL_PATH such that it takes precedence over /bin and /usr/bin (and anything with lower precedence than those paths) as git-sh-setup.sh does would not solve the problem either as the user environment could still allow a bad sh to be found. (Many OpenCSW users will have /opt/csw/bin leading their PATH and some subset would have schilyutils installed.) Option 3 allows us to use a known good shell while still honouring the users' PATH for the utilities being run. Thus, it solves the problem while not negatively impacting either users or git's ability to run external commands in convenient ways. Essentially, the shell is a special case of tool that should not rely on SANE_TOOL_PATH and must be called explicitly. With this patch applied, any code path leading to run_command.c:prepare_shell_cmd can count on using the same sane shell that all shell scripts in the git suite use. Both the build system and run_command.c will default this shell to /bin/sh unless overridden.

2012-03-26Documentation: improve description of GIT_EDITOR and preference orderLibravatar Rodrigo Silva (MestreLion)1-0/+6
Previously GIT_EDITOR was not listed in git(1) "Environment Variables" section, which could be very confusing to users. Include it in "other" subsection along with a link to git-var(1), since that is the page that fully describes all places where editor can be set and also their preference order. Also, git-var(1) did not say that hardcoded fallback 'vi' may have been changed at build time. A user could be puzzled if 'nano' pops up even when none of the mentioned environment vars or config.editor are set. Clarify this. Ideally, the build system should be changed to reflect the chosen fallback editor when creating the man pages. Not sure if that is even possible though.

2012-03-23gitk: Add menu items for comparing a commit with the marked commitLibravatar Paul Mackerras1-9/+29
Sometimes one wants to see the different between two commits that are a long distance apart in the graph display. This is difficult to do with the "Diff this -> selected" and "Diff selected -> this" menu items because the need to maintain the selection means that one can't use the find facilities or the reference list window to navigate from one to the other. This provides an alternative using the mark. Having found one commit, one marks it with the "Mark this commit" menu item, then navigates to the other commit and uses the new "Diff this -> marked commit" and/or "Diff marked commit -> this" menu items.

2012-03-19gitk: Speed up resolution of short SHA1 idsLibravatar Paul Mackerras1-5/+27
On large repositories such as the Linux kernel, it can take quite a noticeable time (several seconds) for gitk to resolve short SHA1 IDs to their long form. This speeds up the process by maintaining lists of IDs indexed by the first 4 characters of the SHA1 ID, speeding up the search by a factor of 65536 on large repositories.

2012-03-19gitk: Use symbolic font names "sans" and "monospace" when availableLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+5
The following only concerns systems using X and the client-side font rendering framework from freedesktop.org. Windows and Mac OS X are not affected. Starting with version 8.5, Tk uses freetype and fontconfig by default to render fonts on platforms that support it. Gitk currently defaults to the font Helvetica for the interface and Courier for diffs, and both unfortunately look rather bad on screen in the default configuration on many Linux distros with anti-aliasing and poor hinting. It is better to default to "sans" and "monospace", which are mapped by fontconfig to some appropriate font of the sysadmin and user's choosing (typically Bitstream Vera Sans and Mono). The result looks more sensible and it makes gitk feel like a well-behaved software citizen since its fonts match other native apps. This patch does not change the appearance of gitk for users that have already run it, since gitk uses the remembered UI and diff font names from ~/.gitk.

2012-03-19gitk: Make "git describe" output clickable, tooLibravatar Jim Meyering1-1/+5
Automake's contribution guidelines suggest using "git describe" output in commit logs to reference previous commits. By contrast, in coreutils, I had acquired the habit of using a bare SHA1 prefix (8 hex digits), since gitk creates clickable links for that, and not for "git describe" output. I prefer the readability of the full "git describe" output, yet want to retain the gitk links, so this renders as clickable not just SHA1-like strings, but also an SHA1-like string that is prefixed by "-g".

2012-03-19gitk: Fix the display of files when filtered by pathLibravatar Pat Thoyts1-11/+27
Launching 'gitk -- .' or 'gitk -- ..\t' restricts the display to files under the given directory but the file list is left empty. This is because the path_filter function fails to match the filenames which are relative to the working tree to the filter which is filessytem relative. This solves the problem by making both names fully qualified filesystem paths before performing the comparison.

2012-03-19gitk: Use a tabbed dialog to edit preferencesLibravatar Pat Thoyts1-100/+164
This commit converts the user preferences dialog into a tabbed property sheet grouping general properties, colours and font selections onto separate pages. The previous implementation was exceeding the screen height on some systems and this avoids such problems and permits extension using new pages in the future. If themed Tk is unavailable or undesired a reasonable facsimile of the tabbed notebook widget is used instead.

Andrew Sayers noticed that the svn-fe | git fast-import pipeline mishandles a subversion history that copies the root directory to a sub-directory (e.g. doing `svn cp . trunk` to standardise your layout). As David Barr explained, the bug arises when the following command is sent to git fast-import: 'ls' SP ':1' SP LF Instead of reading back what is at the root of r1, it unconditionally reports the path as missing. After sleeping on it, here are two patches for 'maint'. One plugs a memory leak. The other ensures that trying to pass an empty path to the 'ls' command results in an error message that can help the frontend author instead of the silently broken conversion Andrew found. Then we can carefully add 'ls ""' support in 1.7.11. * commit 'refs/pull-request-tags/jn/maint-fast-import-empty-ls': fast-import: don't allow 'ls' of path with empty components fast-import: leakfix for 'ls' of dirty trees
