2016-06-20lock_ref_for_update(): make error handling more uniformLibravatar Michael Haggerty2-39/+49
To aid the effort, extract a new function, check_old_oid(), and use it in the two places where the read value of the reference has to be checked against update->old_sha1. Update tests to reflect the improvements. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-06-20t1404: remove "prefix" argument to test_update_rejectedLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-14/+13
The tests already set a variable called prefix and passed its value as the first argument to this function. The old argument handling was overwriting the global variable with its same value rather than creating a local variable. So change test_update_rejected to refer to the global variable rather than taking the prefix as an argument.

2016-06-13lock_ref_sha1_basic(): only handle REF_NODEREF modeLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-34/+20
Now lock_ref_sha1_basic() is only called with flags==REF_NODEREF. So we don't have to handle other cases anymore. This enables several simplifications, the most interesting of which come from the fact that ref_lock::orig_ref_name is now always the same as ref_lock::ref_name: * Remove ref_lock::orig_ref_name * Remove local variable orig_refname from lock_ref_sha1_basic() * ref_name can be initialize once and its value reused * commit_ref_update() never has to write to the reflog for lock->orig_ref_name Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

2016-06-13lock_ref_for_update(): don't resolve symrefsLibravatar Michael Haggerty2-30/+95
If a transaction includes a non-NODEREF update to a symbolic reference, we don't have to look it up in lock_ref_for_update(). The reference will be dereferenced anyway when the split-off update is processed. This change requires that we store a backpointer from the split-off update to its parent update, for two reasons: * We still want to report the original reference name in error messages. So if an error occurs when checking the split-off update's old_sha1, walk the parent_update pointers back to find the original reference name, and report that one. * We still need to write the old_sha1 of the symref to its reflog. So after we read the split-off update's reference value, walk the parent_update pointers back and fill in their old_sha1 fields. Aside from eliminating unnecessary reads, this change fixes a subtle (though not very serious) race condition: in the old code, the old_sha1 of the symref was resolved before the reference that it pointed at was locked. So it was possible that the old_sha1 value logged to the symref's reflog could be wrong if another process changed the downstream reference before it was locked.

2016-06-13lock_ref_for_update(): don't re-read non-symbolic referencesLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-18/+30
Before the previous patch, our first read of the reference happened before the reference was locked, so we couldn't trust its value and had to read it again. But now that our first read of the reference happens after acquiring the lock, there is no need to read it a second time. So move the read_ref_full() call into the (update->type & REF_ISSYMREF) block. Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>
2016-06-13refs: resolve symbolic refs firstLibravatar Michael Haggerty3-40/+514
Before committing ref updates, split symbolic ref updates into two parts: an update to the underlying ref, and a log-only update to the symbolic ref. This ensures that both references are locked correctly during the transaction, including while their reflogs are updated. Similarly, if the reference pointed to by HEAD is modified directly, add a separate log-only update to HEAD, rather than leaving the job of updating HEAD's reflog to commit_ref_update(). This change ensures that HEAD is locked correctly while its reflog is being modified, as well as being cheaper (HEAD only needs to be resolved once). This makes use of a new function, lock_raw_ref(), which is analogous to read_raw_ref(), but acquires a lock on the reference before reading it. This change still has two problems: * There are redundant read_ref_full() reference lookups. * It is still possible to get incorrect reflogs for symbolic references if there is a concurrent update by another process, since the old_oid of a symref is determined before the lock on the pointed-to ref is held. Both problems will soon be fixed. Signed-off-by: David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> WIP

2016-06-13refs: don't dereference on renameLibravatar David Turner2-5/+25
When renaming refs, don't dereference either the origin or the destination before renaming. The origin does not need to be dereferenced because it is presently forbidden to rename symbolic refs. Not dereferencing the destination fixes a bug where renaming on top of a broken symref would use the pointed-to ref name for the moved reflog. Add a test for the reflog bug.

2016-05-05read_raw_ref(): don't get confused by an empty directoryLibravatar Michael Haggerty2-2/+11

2016-05-05commit_ref(): if there is an empty dir in the way, delete itLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-0/+24
Part of the bug revealed in the last commit is that resolve_ref_unsafe() incorrectly returns EISDIR if it finds a directory in the place where it is looking for a loose reference, even if the corresponding packed reference exists. lock_ref_sha1_basic() notices the bogus EISDIR, and use it as an indication that it should call remove_empty_directories() and call resolve_ref_unsafe() again. But resolve_ref_unsafe() shouldn't report EISDIR in this case. If we would simply make that change, then remove_empty_directories() wouldn't get called anymore, and the empty directory would get in the way when commit_ref() calls commit_lock_file() to rename the lockfile into place. So instead of relying on lock_ref_sha1_basic() to delete empty directories, teach commit_ref(), just before calling commit_lock_file(), to check whether a directory is in the way, and if so, try to delete it.

2016-05-05t1404: demonstrate a bug resolving referencesLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-1/+75
Add some tests checking that it is possible to work with a reference even if there is an empty directory where the loose ref would be stored. One of the new tests demonstrates a bug that has been with us since at least 2.5.0--single reference lookup gives up when it sees the directory, even if the reference exists as a packed ref. This probably hasn't been reported before because Git usually cleans up empty directories when packing references. This bug will be fixed shortly.
