2006-02-12"assume unchanged" git: documentation.Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-1/+84
This updates documentation to describe the "assume unchanged" behaviour. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-12ls-files: split "show-valid-bit" into a different option.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+7
To preserve compatibility with scripts that expect uppercase letters to be shown, do not make '-t' to unconditionally show the valid bit. Introduce '-v' option for that. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-09"Assume unchanged" git: --really-refresh fix.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+7
The earlier round failed to make --really-refresh to mark up-to-date index entry to valid again due to a trivial thinko. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-08ls-files: debugging aid for CE_VALID changes.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+17
This is not really part of the proposed updates for CE_VALID, but with this change, ls-files -t shows CE_VALID paths with lowercase tag letters instead of the usual uppercase. Useful for checking out what is going on. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-08"Assume unchanged" git: do not set CE_VALID with --refreshLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+9
When working with automatic assume-unchanged mode using core.ignorestat, setting CE_VALID after --refresh makes things more cumbersome to use. Consider this scenario: (1) the working tree is on a filesystem with slow lstat(2). The user sets core.ignorestat = true. (2) "git checkout" to switch to a different branch (or initial checkout) updates all paths and the index starts out with "all clean". (3) The user knows she wants to edit certain paths. She uses update-index --no-assume-unchanged (we could call it --edit; the name is inmaterial) to mark these paths and starts editing. (4) After editing half of the paths marked to be edited, she runs "git status". This runs "update-index --refresh" to reduce the false hits from diff-files. (5) Now the other half of the paths, since she has not changed them, are found to match the index, and CE_VALID is set on them again. For this reason, this commit makes update-index --refresh not to set CE_VALID even after the path without CE_VALID are verified to be up to date. The user still can run --really-refresh to force lstat() to match the index entries to the reality. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-08"Assume unchanged" gitLibravatar Junio C Hamano13-21/+99
This adds "assume unchanged" logic, started by this message in the list discussion recently: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0601311807470.7301@g5.osdl.org> This is a workaround for filesystems that do not have lstat() that is quick enough for the index mechanism to take advantage of. On the paths marked as "assumed to be unchanged", the user needs to explicitly use update-index to register the object name to be in the next commit. You can use two new options to update-index to set and reset the CE_VALID bit: git-update-index --assume-unchanged path... git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path... These forms manipulate only the CE_VALID bit; it does not change the object name recorded in the index file. Nor they add a new entry to the index. When the configuration variable "core.ignorestat = true" is set, the index entries are marked with CE_VALID bit automatically after: - update-index to explicitly register the current object name to the index file. - when update-index --refresh finds the path to be up-to-date. - when tools like read-tree -u and apply --index update the working tree file and register the current object name to the index file. The flag is dropped upon read-tree that does not check out the index entry. This happens regardless of the core.ignorestat settings. Index entries marked with CE_VALID bit are assumed to be unchanged most of the time. However, there are cases that CE_VALID bit is ignored for the sake of safety and usability: - while "git-read-tree -m" or git-apply need to make sure that the paths involved in the merge do not have local modifications. This sacrifices performance for safety. - when git-checkout-index -f -q -u -a tries to see if it needs to checkout the paths. Otherwise you can never check anything out ;-). - when git-update-index --really-refresh (a new flag) tries to see if the index entry is up to date. You can start with everything marked as CE_VALID and run this once to drop CE_VALID bit for paths that are modified. Most notably, "update-index --refresh" honours CE_VALID and does not actively stat, so after you modified a file in the working tree, update-index --refresh would not notice until you tell the index about it with "git-update-index path" or "git-update-index --no-assume-unchanged path". This version is not expected to be perfect. I think diff between index and/or tree and working files may need some adjustment, and there probably needs other cases we should automatically unmark paths that are marked to be CE_VALID. But the basics seem to work, and ready to be tested by people who asked for this feature. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-02-07http-fetch: Abort requests for objects which arrived in packsLibravatar Mark Wooding3-2/+33
In fetch_object, there's a call to release an object request if the object mysteriously arrived, say in a pack. Unfortunately, the fetch attempt for this object might already be in progress, and we'll leak the descriptor. Instead, try to tidy away the request.

2006-02-06git-commit: finishing touches.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-40/+73
Introduce --only flag to allow the new "partial commit" semantics when paths are specified. The default is still the traditional --include semantics. Once peoples' fingers and scripts that want the traditional behaviour are updated to explicitly say --include, we could change it to either default to --only, or refuse to operate without either --only/--include when paths are specified. This also fixes a couple of bugs in the previous round. Namely: - forgot to save/restore index in some cases. - forgot to use the temporary index to show status when '--only paths...' semantics was used. - --author did not take precedence when reusing an existing commit. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-06git-commit: revamp the git-commit semantics.Libravatar Junio C Hamano4-122/+354
- "git commit" without _any_ parameter keeps the traditional behaviour. It commits the current index. We commit the whole index even when this form is run from a subdirectory. - "git commit --include paths..." (or "git commit -i paths...") is equivalent to: git update-index --remove paths... git commit - "git commit paths..." acquires a new semantics. This is an incompatible change that needs user training, which I am still a bit reluctant to swallow, but enough people seem to have complained that it is confusing to them. It 1. refuses to run if $GIT_DIR/MERGE_HEAD exists, and reminds trained git users that the traditional semantics now needs -i flag. 2. refuses to run if named paths... are different in HEAD and the index (ditto about reminding). Added paths are OK. 3. reads HEAD commit into a temporary index file. 4. updates named paths... from the working tree in this temporary index. 5. does the same updates of the paths... from the working tree to the real index. 6. makes a commit using the temporary index that has the current HEAD as the parent, and updates the HEAD with this new commit. - "git commit --all" can run from a subdirectory, but it updates the index with all the modified files and does a whole tree commit. - In all cases, when the command decides not to create a new commit, the index is left as it was before the command is run. This means that the two "git diff" in the following sequence: $ git diff $ git commit -a $ git diff would show the same diff if you abort the commit process by making the commit log message empty. This commit also introduces much requested --author option. $ git commit --author 'A U Thor <author@example.com>' Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-06git-rerere: reuse recorded resolve.Libravatar Junio C Hamano8-2/+408
In a workflow that employs relatively long lived topic branches, the developer sometimes needs to resolve the same conflict over and over again until the topic branches are done (either merged to the "release" branch, or sent out and accepted upstream). This commit introduces a new command, "git rerere", to help this process by recording the conflicted automerge results and corresponding hand-resolve results on the initial manual merge, and later by noticing the same conflicted automerge and applying the previously recorded hand resolution using three-way merge.

2006-02-06read-tree --aggressiveLibravatar Junio C Hamano3-2/+34

2006-02-06Docs: split up pull-fetch-param.txtLibravatar J. Bruce Fields3-81/+94
The push and pull man pages include a bunch of shared text from pull-fetch-param.txt. This simplifies maintenance somewhat, but there's actually quite a bit of text that applies only to one or the other. So, separate out the push- and pull/fetch-specific text into pull-fetch-param.txt and git-push.txt, then include the largest chunk of common stuff (the description of protocols and url's) from urls.txt. That cuts some irrelevant stuff from the man pages without making us duplicate too much. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-06combine-diff: do not punt on removed or added files.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+14
When we remove a file, the parents' contents are all removed so it is not that interesting to show all of them, but the fact it was removed when all parents had it *is* unusual. When we add a file, similarly the fact it was added when no parent wanted it *is* unusual, and in addition the result matters, so show it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-02-07gitk: Use git-diff-tree --cc for showing the diffs for mergesLibravatar Paul Mackerras1-501/+99
This replaces a lot of code that used the result from several 2-way diffs to generate a combined diff for a merge. Now we just use git-diff-tree --cc and colorize the output a bit, which is a lot simpler, and has the enormous advantage that if the diff doesn't show quite what someone thinks it should show, I can deflect the blame to someone else. :) Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2006-02-05daemon: extend user-relative path notation.Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-10/+54
Earlier, we made --base-path to automatically forbid user-relative paths, which was probably a mistake. This introduces --user-path (or --user-path=path) option to control the use of user-relative paths independently. The latter form of the option can be used to restrict accesses to a part of each user's home directory, similar to "public_html" some webservers supports. If we're invoked with --user-path=FOO option, then a URL of the form git://~USER/PATH/... resolves to the path HOME/FOO/PATH/..., where HOME is USER's home directory.
