2010-01-09Documentation: git gc packs refs by default nowLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-9/+6
In commit 56752391 (Make "git gc" pack all refs by default, 2007-05-24), 'git gc' was changed to run pack-refs by default Versions before v1.5.1.2 cannot clone repos with packed refs over http, and versions before v1.4.4 cannot handled packed refs at all, but more recent git should have no problems. Try to make this more clear in the git-config manual.

2009-12-29Remove http.authAnyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+0
Back when the feature to use different HTTP authentication methods was originally written, it needed an extra HTTP request for everything when the feature was in effect, because we didn't reuse curl sessions. However, b8ac923 (Add an option for using any HTTP authentication scheme, not only basic, 2009-11-27) builds on top of an updated codebase that does reuse curl sessions; there is no need to manually avoid the extra overhead by making this configurable anymore.

2009-11-27Add an option for using any HTTP authentication scheme, not only basicLibravatar Martin Storsjö1-0/+7
This adds the configuration option http.authAny (overridable with the environment variable GIT_HTTP_AUTH_ANY), for instructing curl to allow any HTTP authentication scheme, not only basic (which sends the password in plaintext). When this is enabled, curl has to do double requests most of the time, in order to discover which HTTP authentication method to use, which lowers the performance slightly. Therefore this isn't enabled by default. One example of another authentication scheme to use is digest, which doesn't send the password in plaintext, but uses a challenge-response mechanism instead. Using digest authentication in practice requires at least curl 7.18.1, due to bugs in the digest handling in earlier versions of curl.

In 395de250d (Expand ~ and ~user in core.excludesfile, commit.template), we introduced the mechanism. But expanding ~ using getpw is not what people overriding $HOME would usually expect.

2009-11-17Add a config option for remotes to specify a foreign vcsLibravatar Daniel Barkalow1-0/+4
If this is set, the url is not required, and the transport always uses a helper named "git-remote-<value>". It is a separate configuration option in order to allow a sensible configuration for foreign systems which either have no meaningful urls for repositories or which require urls that do not specify the system used by the repository at that location. However, this only affects how the name of the helper is determined, not anything about the interaction with the helper, and the contruction is such that, if the foreign scm does happen to use a co-named url method, a url with that method may be used directly.

2009-11-04Smart push over HTTP: client sideLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+8
The git-remote-curl backend detects if the remote server supports the git-receive-pack service, and if so, runs git-send-pack in a pipe to dump the command and pack data as a single POST request. The advertisements from the server that were obtained during the discovery are passed into git-send-pack before the POST request starts. This permits git-send-pack to operate largely unmodified. For smaller packs (those under 1 MiB) a HTTP/1.0 POST with a Content-Length is used, permitting interaction with any server. The 1 MiB limit is arbitrary, but is sufficent to fit most deltas created by human authors against text sources with the occasional small binary file (e.g. few KiB icon image). The configuration option http.postBuffer can be used to increase (or shink) this buffer if the default is not sufficient. For larger packs which cannot be spooled entirely into the helper's memory space (due to http.postBuffer being too small), the POST request requires HTTP/1.1 and sets "Transfer-Encoding: chunked". This permits the client to upload an unknown amount of data in one HTTP transaction without needing to pregenerate the entire pack file locally. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2009-10-19Introduce commit notesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+13
Commit notes are blobs which are shown together with the commit message. These blobs are taken from the notes ref, which you can configure by the config variable core.notesRef, which in turn can be overridden by the environment variable GIT_NOTES_REF. The notes ref is a branch which contains "files" whose names are the names of the corresponding commits (i.e. the SHA-1). The rationale for putting this information into a ref is this: we want to be able to fetch and possibly union-merge the notes, maybe even look at the date when a note was introduced, and we want to store them efficiently together with the other objects. This patch has been improved by the following contributions: - Thomas Rast: fix core.notesRef documentation - Tor Arne Vestbø: fix printing of multi-line notes - Alex Riesen: Using char array instead of char pointer costs less BSS - Johan Herland: Plug leak when msg is good, but msglen or type causes return Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Tor Arne Vestbø <tavestbo@trolltech.com> Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> get_commit_notes(): Plug memory leak when 'if' triggers, but not because of read_sha1_file() failure

2009-09-05core.whitespace: split trailing-space into blank-at-{eol,eof}Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
People who configured trailing-space depended on it to catch both extra white space at the end of line, and extra blank lines at the end of file. Earlier attempt to introduce only blank-at-eof gave them an escape hatch to keep the old behaviour, but it is a regression until they explicitly specify the new error class. This introduces a blank-at-eol that only catches extra white space at the end of line, and makes the traditional trailing-space a convenient synonym to catch both blank-at-eol and blank-at-eof. This way, people who used trailing-space continue to catch both classes of errors. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-09-04apply --whitespace=warn/error: diagnose blank at EOFLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
"git apply" strips new blank lines at EOF under --whitespace=fix option, but neigher --whitespace=warn nor --whitespace=error paid any attention to these errors. Introduce a new whitespace error class, blank-at-eof, to make the whitespace error handling more consistent. The patch adds a new "linenr" field to the struct fragment in order to record which line the hunk started in the input file, but this is needed solely for reporting purposes. The detection of this class of whitespace errors cannot be done while parsing a patch like we do for all the other classes of whitespace errors. It instead has to wait until we find where to apply the hunk, but at that point, we do not have an access to the original line number in the input file anymore, hence the new field. Depending on your point of view, this may be a bugfix that makes warn and error in line with fix. Or you could call it a new feature. The line between them is somewhat fuzzy in this case. Strictly speaking, triggering more errors than before is a change in behaviour that is not backward compatible, even though the reason for the change is because the code was not checking for an error that it should have. People who do not want added blank lines at EOF to trigger an error can disable the new error class. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Most of the docs and printouts refer to "commands" when discussing what the end users call via the "git" top-level program.

2009-08-05don't let the delta cache grow unbounded in 'git repack'Libravatar Nicolas Pitre1-3/+11
I have 4GB of RAM on my system which should, in theory, be quite enough to repack a 600 MB repository. However the unbounded delta cache size always pushes it into swap, at which point everything virtually comes to a halt. So unbounded caches are never a good idea. A default of 256MB should be a good compromize between memory usage and speed where medium sized repositories are still likely to fit in the cache with a reasonable memory usage, and larger repositories are going to take quite some time to repack already anyway.
