2021-11-01pretty: add abbrev option to %(describe)Libravatar Eli Schwartz1-0/+4
The %(describe) placeholder by default, like `git describe`, uses a seven-character abbreviated commit object name. This may not be sufficient to fully describe all commits in a given repository, resulting in a placeholder replacement changing its length because the repository grew in size. This could cause the output of git-archive to change. Add the --abbrev option to `git describe` to the placeholder interface in order to provide tools to the user for fine-tuning project defaults and ensure reproducible archives. One alternative would be to just always specify --abbrev=40 but this may be a bit too biased... Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-11-01pretty: add tag option to %(describe)Libravatar Eli Schwartz1-5/+7
The %(describe) placeholder by default, like `git describe`, only supports annotated tags. However, some people do use lightweight tags for releases, and would like to describe those anyway.

2020-12-09pretty format %(trailers) doc: avoid repetitionLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-14/+16
Change the documentation for the various %(trailers) options so it isn't repeating part of the documentation for "only" about how boolean values are handled. Instead, let's split the description of that into general documentation at the top. It then suffices to refer to it by listing the options as "opt[=<BOOL>]". I'm also changing it to upper-case "[=<BOOL>]" from "[=val]" for consistency with "<SEP>" It took me a couple of readings to realize that these options were referring back to the "only" option's treatment of boolean values.

2020-12-09pretty format %(trailers): add a "key_value_separator"Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+4
Add a "key_value_separator" option to the "%(trailers)" pretty format, to go along with the existing "separator" argument. In combination these two options make it trivial to produce machine-readable (e.g. \0 and \0\0-delimited) format output. As elaborated on in a previous commit which added "keyonly" it was needlessly tedious to extract structured data from "%(trailers)" before the addition of this "key_value_separator" option. As seen by the test being added here extracting this data now becomes trivial. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-12-09pretty format %(trailers): add a "keyonly"Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+2
Add support for a "keyonly". This allows for easier parsing out of the key and value. Before if you didn't want to make assumptions about how the key was formatted. You'd need to parse it out as e.g.: --pretty=format:'%H%x00%(trailers:separator=%x00%x00)' \ '%x00%(trailers:separator=%x00%x00,valueonly)' And then proceed to deduce keys by looking at those two and subtracting the value plus the hardcoded ": " separator from the non-valueonly %(trailers) line. Now it's possible to simply do: --pretty=format:'%H%x00%(trailers:separator=%x00%x00,keyonly)' \ '%x00%(trailers:separator=%x00%x00,valueonly)' Which at least reduces it to a state machine where you get N keys and correlate them with N values. Even better would be to have a way to change the ": " delimiter to something easily machine-readable (a key might contain ": " too). A follow-up change will add support for that. I don't really have a use-case for just "keyonly" myself. I suppose it would be useful in some cases as "key=*" matches case-insensitively, so a plain "keyonly" will give you the variants of the keys you matched. I'm mainly adding it to fix the inconsistency with "valueonly". Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-01-30Merge branch 'hi/gpg-mintrustlevel'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
gpg.minTrustLevel configuration variable has been introduced to tell various signature verification codepaths the required minimum trust level. * hi/gpg-mintrustlevel: gpg-interface: add minTrustLevel as a configuration option
2020-01-15gpg-interface: add minTrustLevel as a configuration optionLibravatar Hans Jerry Illikainen1-0/+1
Previously, signature verification for merge and pull operations checked if the key had a trust-level of either TRUST_NEVER or TRUST_UNDEFINED in verify_merge_signature(). If that was the case, the process die()d. The other code paths that did signature verification relied entirely on the return code from check_commit_signature(). And signatures made with a good key, irregardless of its trust level, was considered valid by check_commit_signature(). This difference in behavior might induce users to erroneously assume that the trust level of a key in their keyring is always considered by Git, even for operations where it is not (e.g. during a verify-commit or verify-tag). The way it worked was by gpg-interface.c storing the result from the key/signature status *and* the lowest-two trust levels in the `result` member of the signature_check structure (the last of these status lines that were encountered got written to `result`). These are documented in GPG under the subsection `General status codes` and `Key related`, respectively [1]. The GPG documentation says the following on the TRUST_ status codes [1]: """ These are several similar status codes: - TRUST_UNDEFINED <error_token> - TRUST_NEVER <error_token> - TRUST_MARGINAL [0 [<validation_model>]] - TRUST_FULLY [0 [<validation_model>]] - TRUST_ULTIMATE [0 [<validation_model>]] For good signatures one of these status lines are emitted to indicate the validity of the key used to create the signature. The error token values are currently only emitted by gpgsm. """ My interpretation is that the trust level is conceptionally different from the validity of the key and/or signature. That seems to also have been the assumption of the old code in check_signature() where a result of 'G' (as in GOODSIG) and 'U' (as in TRUST_NEVER or TRUST_UNDEFINED) were both considered a success. The two cases where a result of 'U' had special meaning were in verify_merge_signature() (where this caused git to die()) and in format_commit_one() (where it affected the output of the %G? format specifier). I think it makes sense to refactor the processing of TRUST_ status lines such that users can configure a minimum trust level that is enforced globally, rather than have individual parts of git (e.g. merge) do it themselves (except for a grace period with backward compatibility). I also think it makes sense to not store the trust level in the same struct member as the key/signature status. While the presence of a TRUST_ status code does imply that the signature is good (see the first paragraph in the included snippet above), as far as I can tell, the order of the status lines from GPG isn't well-defined; thus it would seem plausible that the trust level could be overwritten with the key/signature status if they were stored in the same member of the signature_check structure. This patch introduces a new configuration option: gpg.minTrustLevel. It consolidates trust-level verification to gpg-interface.c and adds a new `trust_level` member to the signature_check structure. Backward-compatibility is maintained by introducing a special case in verify_merge_signature() such that if no user-configurable gpg.minTrustLevel is set, then the old behavior of rejecting TRUST_UNDEFINED and TRUST_NEVER is enforced. If, on the other hand, gpg.minTrustLevel is set, then that value overrides the old behavior. Similarly, the %G? format specifier will continue show 'U' for signatures made with a key that has a trust level of TRUST_UNDEFINED or TRUST_NEVER, even though the 'U' character no longer exist in the `result` member of the signature_check structure. A new format specifier, %GT, is also introduced for users that want to show all possible trust levels for a signature. Another approach would have been to simply drop the trust-level requirement in verify_merge_signature(). This would also have made the behavior consistent with other parts of git that perform signature verification. However, requiring a minimum trust level for signing keys does seem to have a real-world use-case. For example, the build system used by the Qubes OS project currently parses the raw output from verify-tag in order to assert a minimum trust level for keys used to sign git tags [2].

2019-11-20pretty: implement 'reference' formatLibravatar Denton Liu1-0/+11
The standard format for referencing other commits within some projects (such as git.git) is the reference format. This is described in Documentation/SubmittingPatches as If you want to reference a previous commit in the history of a stable branch, use the format "abbreviated hash (subject, date)", like this: .... Commit f86a374 (pack-bitmap.c: fix a memleak, 2015-03-30) noticed that ... .... Since this format is so commonly used, standardize it as a pretty format. The tests that are implemented essentially show that the format-string does not change in response to various log options. This is useful because, for future developers, it shows that we've considered the limitations of the "canned format-string" approach and we are fine with them.

2017-07-13pretty: respect color settings for %C placeholdersLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+11
The color placeholders have traditionally been unconditional, showing colors even when git is not otherwise configured to do so. This was not so bad for their original use, which was on the command-line (and the user could decide at that moment whether to add colors or not). But these days we have configured formats via pretty.*, and those should operate correctly in multiple contexts. In 3082517 (log --format: teach %C(auto,black) to respect color config, 2012-12-17), we gave an extended placeholder that could be used to accomplish this. But it's rather clunky to use, because you have to specify it individually for each color (and their matching resets) in the format. We shied away from just switching the default to auto, because it is technically breaking backwards compatibility. However, there's not really a use case for unconditional colors. The most plausible reason you would want them is to redirect "git log" output to a file. But there, the right answer is --color=always, as it does the right thing both with custom user-format colors and git-generated colors. So let's switch to the more useful default. In the off-chance that somebody really does find a use for unconditional colors without wanting to enable the rest of git's colors, we provide a new %C(always,...) to enable the old behavior. And we can remind them of --color=always in the documentation. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-12-11pretty: add %(trailers) format for displaying trailers of a commit messageLibravatar Jacob Keller1-0/+2
Recent patches have expanded on the trailers.c code and we have the builtin commant git-interpret-trailers which can be used to add or modify trailer lines. However, there is no easy way to simply display the trailers of a commit message. Add support for %(trailers) format modifier which will use the trailer_info_get() calls to read trailers in an identical way as git interpret-trailers does. Use a long format option instead of a short name so that future work can more easily unify ref-filter and pretty formats. Add documentation and tests for the same.
