A crashing bug introduced in v2.11 timeframe has been found (it is triggerable only in fast-import) and fixed. * jk/clear-delta-base-cache-fix: clear_delta_base_cache(): don't modify hashmap while iterating
2017-01-19documentation: retire unfinished documentationLibravatar Stefan Beller1-21/+0
When looking for documentation for a specific function, you may be tempted to run git -C Documentation grep index_name_pos only to find the file technical/api-in-core-index.txt, which doesn't help for understanding the given function. It would be better to not find these functions in the documentation, such that people directly dive into the code instead. In the previous patches we have documented * index_name_pos() * remove_index_entry_at() * add_[file_]to_index() in cache.h We already have documentation for: * add_index_entry() * read_index() Which leaves us with a TODO for: * cache -> the_index macros * refresh_index() * discard_index() * ie_match_stat() and ie_modified(); how they are different and when to use which. * write_index() that was renamed to write_locked_index * cache_tree_invalidate_path() * cache_tree_update() Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Here it is rolled up with a commit message. -- >8 -- Subject: clear_delta_base_cache(): don't modify hashmap while iterating Removing entries while iterating causes fast-import to access an already-freed `struct packed_git`, leading to various confusing errors. What happens is that clear_delta_base_cache() drops the whole contents of the cache by iterating over the hashmap, calling release_delta_base_cache() on each entry. That function removes the item from the hashmap. The hashmap code may then shrink the table, but the hashmap_iter struct retains an offset from the old table. As a result, the next call to hashmap_iter_next() may claim that the iteration is done, even though some items haven't been visited. The only caller of clear_delta_base_cache() is fast-import, which wants to clear the cache because it is discarding the packed_git struct for its temporary pack. So by failing to remove all of the entries, we still have references to the freed packed_git. To make things even more confusing, this doesn't seem to trigger with the test suite, because it depends on complexities like the size of the hash table, which entries got cleared, whether we try to access them before they're evicted from the cache, etc. So I've been able to identify the problem with large imports like freebsd's svn import, or a fast-export of linux.git. But nothing that would be reasonable to run as part of the normal test suite. We can fix this easily by iterating over the lru linked list instead of the hashmap. They both contain the same entries, and we can use the "safe" variant of the list iterator, which exists for exactly this case. Let's also add a warning to the hashmap API documentation to reduce the chances of getting bit by this again.

Now that all callers of the old 'get_pathspec' interface have been migrated to use the new pathspec struct interface it can be removed from the codebase. Since there are no more users of the '_raw' field in the pathspec struct it can also be removed. This patch also removes the old functionality of modifying the const char **argv array that was passed into parse_pathspec. Instead the constructed 'match' string (which is a pathspec element with the prefix prepended) is only stored in its corresponding pathspec_item entry.

2016-08-02hashmap: clarify that hashmap_entry can safely be discardedLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
The API documentation said that the hashmap_entry structure to be embedded in the caller's structure is to be treated as opaque, which left the reader wondering if it can safely be discarded when it no longer is necessary. If the hashmap_entry structure had references to external resources such as allocated memory or an open file descriptor, merely free(3)ing the containing structure (when the caller's structure is on the heap) or letting it go out of scope (when it is on the stack) would end up leaking the external resource. Document that there is no need for hashmap_entry_clear() that corresponds to hashmap_entry_init() to give the API users a little bit of peace of mind.

2016-06-13fetch, upload-pack: --deepen=N extends shallow boundary by N commitsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+7
In git-fetch, --depth argument is always relative with the latest remote refs. This makes it a bit difficult to cover this use case, where the user wants to make the shallow history, say 3 levels deeper. It would work if remote refs have not moved yet, but nobody can guarantee that, especially when that use case is performed a couple months after the last clone or "git fetch --depth". Also, modifying shallow boundary using --depth does not work well with clones created by --since or --not. This patch fixes that. A new argument --deepen=<N> will add <N> more (*) parent commits to the current history regardless of where remote refs are. Have/Want negotiation is still respected. So if remote refs move, the server will send two chunks: one between "have" and "want" and another to extend shallow history. In theory, the client could send no "want"s in order to get the second chunk only. But the protocol does not allow that. Either you send no want lines, which means ls-remote; or you have to send at least one want line that carries deep-relative to the server.. The main work was done by Dongcan Jiang. I fixed it up here and there. And of course all the bugs belong to me. (*) We could even support --deepen=<N> where <N> is negative. In that case we can cut some history from the shallow clone. This operation (and --depth=<shorter depth>) does not require interaction with remote side (and more complicated to implement as a result).

2016-06-13upload-pack: support define shallow boundary by excluding revisionsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2-1/+11
This should allow the user to say "create a shallow clone of this branch after version <some-tag>". Short refs are accepted and expanded at the server side with expand_ref() because we cannot expand (unknown) refs from the client side. Like deepen-since, deepen-not cannot be used with deepen. But deepen-not can be mixed with deepen-since. The result is exactly how you do the command "git rev-list --since=... --not ref".

2016-06-13upload-pack: add deepen-since to cut shallow repos based on timeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2-1/+11
This should allow the user to say "create a shallow clone containing the work from last year" (once the client side is fixed up, of course). In theory deepen-since and deepen (aka --depth) can be used together to draw the shallow boundary (whether it's intersection or union is up to discussion, but if rev-list is used, it's likely intersection). However, because deepen goes with a custom commit walker, we can't mix the two yet. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-05-05parse-options.c: make OPTION_COUNTUP respect "unspecified" valuesLibravatar Pranit Bauva1-2/+6
OPT_COUNTUP() merely increments the counter upon --option, and resets it to 0 upon --no-option, which means that there is no "unspecified" value with which a client can initialize the counter to determine whether or not --[no]-option was seen at all. Make OPT_COUNTUP() treat any negative number as an "unspecified" value to address this shortcoming. In particular, if a client initializes the counter to -1, then if it is still -1 after parse_options(), then neither --option nor --no-option was seen; if it is 0, then --no-option was seen last, and if it is 1 or greater, than --option was seen last. This change does not affect the behavior of existing clients because they all use the initial value of 0 (or more). Note that builtin/clean.c initializes the variable used with OPT__FORCE (which uses OPT_COUNTUP()) to a negative value, but it is set to either 0 or 1 by reading the configuration before the code calls parse_options(), i.e. as far as parse_options() is concerned, the initial value of the variable is not negative. To test this behavior, in test-parse-options.c, "verbose" is set to "unspecified" while quiet is set to 0 which will test the new behavior with all sets of values.
