2018-11-06Merge branch 'md/exclude-promisor-objects-fix'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Operations on promisor objects make sense in the context of only a small subset of the commands that internally use the revisions machinery, but the "--exclude-promisor-objects" option were taken and led to nonsense results by commands like "log", to which it didn't make much sense. This has been corrected. * md/exclude-promisor-objects-fix: exclude-promisor-objects: declare when option is allowed Documentation/git-log.txt: do not show --exclude-promisor-objects
2018-10-23Documentation/git-log.txt: do not show --exclude-promisor-objectsLibravatar Matthew DeVore1-1/+1
Do not suggest that --exclude-promisor-objects is supported by git-log, since it currently BUG-crashes and it's not necessary to support it. Options that control behavior for promisor objects should be limited to a small number of commands.

2018-10-07list-objects-filter: implement filter tree:0Libravatar Matthew DeVore1-0/+5
Teach list-objects the "tree:0" filter which allows for filtering out all tree and blob objects (unless other objects are explicitly specified by the user). The purpose of this patch is to allow smaller partial clones. The name of this filter - tree:0 - does not explicitly specify that it also filters out all blobs, but this should not cause much confusion because blobs are not at all useful without the trees that refer to them. I also considered only:commits as a name, but this is inaccurate because it suggests that annotated tags are omitted, but actually they are included. The name "tree:0" allows later filtering based on depth, i.e. "tree:1" would filter out all but the root tree and blobs. In order to avoid confusion between 0 and capital O, the documentation was worded in a somewhat round-about way that also hints at this future improvement to the feature.

2017-12-08rev-list: support termination at promisor objectsLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+11
Teach rev-list to support termination of an object traversal at any object from a promisor remote (whether one that the local repo also has, or one that the local repo knows about because it has another promisor object that references it). This will be used subsequently in gc and in the connectivity check used by fetch. For efficiency, if an object is referenced by a promisor object, and is in the local repo only as a non-promisor object, object traversal will not stop there. This is to avoid building the list of promisor object references. (In list-objects.c, the case where obj is NULL in process_blob() and process_tree() do not need to be changed because those happen only when there is a conflict between the expected type and the existing object. If the object doesn't exist, an object will be synthesized, which is fine.)

2017-11-22rev-list: add list-objects filtering supportLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-0/+36
Teach rev-list to use the filtering provided by the traverse_commit_list_filtered() interface to omit unwanted objects from the result. Object filtering is only allowed when one of the "--objects*" options are used. When the "--filter-print-omitted" option is used, the omitted objects are printed at the end. These are marked with a "~". This option can be combined with "--quiet" to get a list of just the omitted objects. Add t6112 test. In the future, we will introduce a "partial clone" mechanism wherein an object in a repo, obtained from a remote, may reference a missing object that can be dynamically fetched from that remote once needed. This "partial clone" mechanism will have a way, sometimes slow, of determining if a missing link is one of the links expected to be produced by this mechanism. This patch introduces handling of missing objects to help debugging and development of the "partial clone" mechanism, and once the mechanism is implemented, for a power user to perform operations that are missing-object aware without incurring the cost of checking if a missing link is expected.

2017-11-16revision.h: introduce blob/tree walking in order of the commitsLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+5
The functionality to list tree objects in the order they were seen while traversing the commits will be used in one of the next commits, where we teach `git describe` to describe not only commits, but blobs, too. The change in list-objects.c is rather minimal as we'll be re-using the infrastructure put in place of the revision walking machinery. For example one could expect that add_pending_tree is not called, but rather commit->tree is directly passed to the tree traversal function. This however requires a lot more code than just emptying the queue containing trees after each commit.

2017-06-15strbuf: let strbuf_addftime handle %z and %Z itselfLibravatar René Scharfe1-1/+2
There is no portable way to pass timezone information to strftime. Add parameters for timezone offset and name to strbuf_addftime and let it handle the timezone-related format specifiers %z and %Z internally. Callers can opt out for %Z by passing NULL as timezone name. %z is always handled internally -- this helps on Windows, where strftime would expand it to a timezone name (same as %Z), in violation of POSIX. Modifiers are not handled, e.g. %Ez is still passed to strftime. Use an empty string as timezone name in show_date (the only current caller) for now because we only have the timezone offset in non-local mode. POSIX allows %Z to resolve to an empty string in case of missing information.

2017-05-26log: add -P as a synonym for --perl-regexpLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+1
Add a short -P option as a synonym for the longer --perl-regexp, for consistency with the options the corresponding grep invocations accept. This was intentionally omitted in commit 727b6fc3ed ("log --grep: accept --basic-regexp and --perl-regexp", 2012-10-03) for unspecified future use. Make it consistent with "grep" rather than to keep it open for future use, and to avoid the confusion of -P meaning different things for grep & log, as is the case with the -G option. As noted in the aforementioned commit the --basic-regexp option can't have a corresponding -G argument, as the log command already uses that for -G<regex>.

Stop promising in our grep & rev-list options documentation that we're always going to be using libpcre when given the --perl-regexp option. Instead talk about using "Perl-compatible regular expressions" and using these types of patterns using "a compile-time dependency". Saying "libpcre" means that we're talking about libpcre.so, which is always going to be v1. This change is part of an ongoing saga to add support for libpcre2, which comes with PCRE v2. In the future we might use some completely unrelated library to provide perl-compatible regular expression support. By wording the documentation differently and not promising any specific version of PCRE or even PCRE at all we have more wiggle room to change the implementation.

2016-07-27date: add "unix" formatLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+4
We already have "--date=raw", which is a Unix epoch timestamp plus a contextual timezone (either the author's or the local). But one may not care about the timezone and just want the epoch timestamp by itself. It's not hard to parse the two apart, but if you are using a pretty-print format, you may want git to show the "finished" form that the user will see.

2016-07-27date: document and test "raw-local" modeLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+5
The "raw" format shows a Unix epoch timestamp, but with a timezone tacked on. The timestamp is not _in_ that zone, but it is extra information about the time (by default, the zone the author was in). The documentation claims that "raw-local" does not work. It does, but the end result is rather subtle. Let's describe it in better detail, and test to make sure it works (namely, the epoch time doesn't change, but the zone does). While we are rewording the documentation in this area, let's not use the phrase "does not work" for the remaining option, "--date=relative". It's vague; do we accept it or not? We do accept it, but it has no effect (which is a reasonable outcome). We should also refer to the option not as "--relative" (which is the historical synonym, and does not take "-local" at all), but as "--date=relative".

2016-07-20rev-list: add optional progress reportingLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+4
It's easy to ask rev-list to do a traversal that may takes many seconds (e.g., by calling "--objects --all"). In theory you can monitor its progress by the output you get to stdout, but this isn't always easy. Some operations, like "--count", don't make any output until the end. And some callers, like check_everything_connected(), are using it just for the error-checking of the traversal, and throw away stdout entirely. This patch adds a "--progress" option which can be used to give some eye-candy for a user waiting for a long traversal. This is just a rev-list option and not a regular traversal option, because it needs cooperation from the callbacks in builtin/rev-list.c to do the actual count.

2015-09-03date: make "local" orthogonal to date formatLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+15
Most of our "--date" modes are about the format of the date: which items we show and in what order. But "--date=local" is a bit of an oddball. It means "show the date in the normal format, but using the local timezone". The timezone we use is orthogonal to the actual format, and there is no reason we could not have "localized iso8601", etc. This patch adds a "local" boolean field to "struct date_mode", and drops the DATE_LOCAL element from the date_mode_type enum (it's now just DATE_NORMAL plus local=1). The new feature is accessible to users by adding "-local" to any date mode (e.g., "iso-local"), and we retain "local" as an alias for "default-local" for backwards compatibility.

"git log --grep=<string>" shows only commits with messages that match the given string, but sometimes it is useful to be able to show only commits that do *not* have certain messages (e.g. "show me ones that are not FIXUP commits"). Originally, we had the invert-grep flag in grep_opt, but because "git grep --invert-grep" does not make sense except in conjunction with "--files-with-matches", which is already covered by "--files-without-matches", it was moved it to revisions structure. To have the flag there expresses the function to the feature better. When the newly inserted two tests run, the history would have commits with messages "initial", "second", "third", "fourth", "fifth", "sixth" and "Second", committed in this order. The commits that does not match either "th" or "Sec" is "second" and "initial". For the case insensitive case only "initial" matches.

This change, and the subsequent change to make this conditional on --objects-edge, are used by --thin to make much smaller packs for shallow clones. Unfortunately, they cause a significant performance regression when pushing non-shallow clones with lots of refs (23.322 seconds vs. 4.785 seconds with 22400 refs). Add an option to git rev-list, --objects-edge-aggressive, that preserves this more aggressive behavior, while leaving --objects-edge to provide more performant behavior. Preserve the current behavior for the moment by using the aggressive option. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-10-19rev-list: add --indexed-objects optionLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
There is currently no easy way to ask the revision traversal machinery to include objects reachable from the index (e.g., blobs and trees that have not yet been committed). This patch adds an option to do so. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
