A micro fix to a topic earlier merged to 'master'
source: <patch-1.1-05949221e3f-20220319T002715Z-avarab@gmail.com>
* ab/make-optim-noop:
contrib/scalar: fix 'all' target in Makefile
Documentation/Makefile: fix "make info" regression in dad9cd7d518
|
|
Fix a regression in my dad9cd7d518 (Makefile: move ".SUFFIXES" rule to
shared.mak, 2022-03-03). As explained in the GNU make documentation
for the $* variable, available at:
info make --index-search='$*'
This rule relied on ".texi" being in the default list of suffixes, as
seen at:
make -f/dev/null -p | grep -v -e ^# -e ^$|grep -F .SUFFIXES
The documentation explains what was going on here:
In an explicit rule, there is no stem; so '$*' cannot be determined
in that way. Instead, if the target name ends with a recognized
suffix (*note Old-Fashioned Suffix Rules: Suffix Rules.), '$*' is
set to the target name minus the suffix. For example, if the
target name is 'foo.c', then '$*' is set to 'foo', since '.c' is a
suffix. GNU 'make' does this bizarre thing only for compatibility
with other implementations of 'make'. You should generally avoid
using '$*' except in implicit rules or static pattern rules.
If the target name in an explicit rule does not end with a
recognized suffix, '$*' is set to the empty string for that rule.
I.e. this rule added back in 5cefc33bffd (Documentation: add
gitman.info target, 2007-12-10) was resolving gitman.texi from
gitman.info. We can instead just use the more obvious $< variable
referring to the prerequisite.
This was the only use of $* in our Makefiles in an explicit rule, the
three remaining ones are all implicit rules, and therefore didn't
depend on the ".SUFFIXES" list.

The error "not tracking: ambiguous information for ref" is raised
when we are evaluating what tracking information to set on a branch,
and find that the ref to be added as tracking branch is mapped
under multiple remotes' fetch refspecs.
This can easily happen when a user copy-pastes a remote definition
in their git config, and forgets to change the tracking path.
Add advice in this situation, explicitly highlighting which remotes
are involved and suggesting how to correct the situation. Also
update a test to explicitly expect that advice.

Remove the 'reset.refresh' option, requiring that users explicitly specify
'--no-refresh' if they want to skip refreshing the index.
The 'reset.refresh' option was introduced in 101cee42dd (reset: introduce
--[no-]refresh option to --mixed, 2022-03-11) as a replacement for the
refresh-skipping behavior originally controlled by 'reset.quiet'.
Although 'reset.refresh=false' functionally served the same purpose as
'reset.quiet=true', it exposed [1] the fact that the existence of a global
"skip refresh" option could potentially cause problems for users. Allowing a
global config option to avoid refreshing the index forces scripts using 'git
reset --mixed' to defensively use '--refresh' if index refresh is expected;
if that option is missing, behavior of a script could vary from user-to-user
without explanation.
Furthermore, globally disabling index refresh in 'reset --mixed' was
initially devised as a passive performance improvement; since the
introduction of the option, other changes have been made to Git (e.g., the
sparse index) with a greater potential performance impact without
sacrificing index correctness. Therefore, we can more aggressively err on
the side of correctness and limit the cases of skipping index refresh to
only when a user specifies the '--no-refresh' option.

Remove the 'reset.quiet' config option, remove '--no-quiet' documentation in
'Documentation/git-reset.txt'. In 4c3abd0551 (reset: add new reset.quiet
config setting, 2018-10-23), 'reset.quiet' was introduced as a way to
globally change the default behavior of 'git reset --mixed' to skip index
refresh.
However, now that '--quiet' does not affect index refresh, 'reset.quiet'
would only serve to globally silence logging. This was not the original
intention of the config setting, and there's no precedent for such a setting
in other commands with a '--quiet' option, so it appears to be obsolete.
In addition to the options & its documentation, remove 'reset.quiet' from
the recommended config for 'scalar'.

Update '--quiet' to no longer implicitly skip refreshing the index in a
mixed reset. Users now have the ability to explicitly disable refreshing the
index with the '--no-refresh' option, so they no longer need to use
'--quiet' to do so. Moreover, we explicitly remove the refresh-skipping
behavior from '--quiet' because it is completely unrelated to the stated
purpose of the option: "Be quiet, only report errors."

The 'filter' capability was added in 105c6f14a (bundle: parse filter
capability, 2022-03-09), but was added in a strange place in the 'git
bundle verify' output.
The tests for this show output like the following:
The bundle contains these 2 refs:
<COMMIT1> <REF1>
<COMMIT2> <REF2>
The bundle uses this filter: blob:none
The bundle records a complete history.
This looks very odd if we have a thin bundle that contains boundary
commits instead of a complete history:
The bundle contains these 2 refs:
<COMMIT1> <REF1>
<COMMIT2> <REF2>
The bundle uses this filter: blob:none
The bundle requires these 2 refs:
<COMMIT3>
<COMMIT4>
This separation between tip refs and boundary refs is unfortunate. Move
the filter capability output to the end of the output. Update the
documentation to match.

'--object-only' is an alias for '--format=%(objectname)'. It cannot
be used together other format-altering options like '--name-only',
'--long' or '--format', they are mutually exclusive.
The "--name-only" option outputs <filepath> only. Likewise, <objectName>
is another high frequency used field, so implement '--object-only' option
will bring intuitive and clear semantics for this scenario. Using
'--format=%(objectname)' we can achieve a similar effect, but the former
is with a lower learning cost(without knowing the format requirement
of '--format' option).
Even so, if a user is prefer to use "--format=%(objectname)", this is entirely
welcome because they are not only equivalent in function, but also have almost
identical performance. The reason is this commit also add the specific of
"--format=%(objectname)" to the current fast-pathes (builtin formats) to
avoid running unnecessary parsing mechanisms.
The following performance benchmarks are based on torvalds/linux.git:
When hit the fast-path:
Benchmark 1: /opt/git/ls-tree-oid-only/bin/git ls-tree -r --object-only HEAD
Time (mean ± σ): 83.6 ms ± 2.0 ms [User: 59.4 ms, System: 24.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 80.4 ms … 87.2 ms 35 runs
Benchmark 1: /opt/git/ls-tree-oid-only/bin/git ls-tree -r --format='%(objectname)' HEAD
Time (mean ± σ): 84.1 ms ± 1.8 ms [User: 61.7 ms, System: 22.3 ms]
Range (min … max): 80.9 ms … 87.5 ms 35 runs
But for a customized format, it will be slower:
Benchmark 1: /opt/git/ls-tree-oid-only/bin/git ls-tree -r --format='oid: %(objectname)' HEAD
Time (mean ± σ): 96.5 ms ± 2.5 ms [User: 72.9 ms, System: 23.5 ms]

Add a --format option to ls-tree. It has an existing default output,
and then --long and --name-only options to emit the default output
along with the objectsize and, or to only emit object paths.
Rather than add --type-only, --object-only etc. we can just support a
--format using a strbuf_expand() similar to "for-each-ref
--format". We might still add such options in the future for
convenience.
The --format implementation is slower than the existing code, but this
change does not cause any performance regressions. We'll leave the
existing show_tree() unchanged, and only run show_tree_fmt() in if
a --format different than the hardcoded built-in ones corresponding to
the existing modes is provided.
I.e. something like the "--long" output would be much slower with
this, mainly due to how we need to allocate various things to do with
quote.c instead of spewing the output directly to stdout.
The new option of '--format' comes from Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmasonn's
idea and suggestion, this commit makes modifications in terms of the
original discussion on community [1].
In [1] there was a "GIT_TEST_LS_TREE_FORMAT_BACKEND" variable to
ensure that we had test coverage for passing tests that would
otherwise use show_tree() through show_tree_fmt(), and thus that the
formatting mechanism could handle all the same cases as the
non-formatting options.
Somewhere in subsequent re-rolls of that we seem to have drifted away
from what the goal of these tests should be. We're trying to ensure
correctness of show_tree_fmt(). We can't tell if we "hit [the]
fast-path" here, and instead of having an explicit test for that, we
can just add it to something our "test_ls_tree_format" tests for.
Here is the statistics about performance tests:
1. Default format (hitten the builtin formats):

"git fetch --recurse-submodules" only considers populated
submodules (i.e. submodules that can be found by iterating the index),
which makes "git fetch" behave differently based on which commit is
checked out. As a result, even if the user has initialized all submodules
correctly, they may not fetch the necessary submodule commits, and
commands like "git checkout --recurse-submodules" might fail.
Teach "git fetch" to fetch cloned, changed submodules regardless of
whether they are populated. This is in addition to the current behavior
of fetching populated submodules (which is always attempted regardless
of what was fetched in the superproject, or even if nothing was fetched
in the superproject).
A submodule may be encountered multiple times (via the list of
populated submodules or via the list of changed submodules). When this
happens, "git fetch" only reads the 'populated copy' and ignores the
'changed copy'. Amend the verify_fetch_result() test helper so that we
can assert on which 'copy' is being read.

When writing both loose and packed references to disk we first create a
lockfile, write the updated values into that lockfile, and on commit we
rename the file into place. According to filesystem developers, this
behaviour is broken because applications should always sync data to disk
before doing the final rename to ensure data consistency [1][2][3]. If
applications fail to do this correctly, a hard crash of the machine can
easily result in corrupted on-disk data.
This kind of corruption can in fact be easily observed with Git when the
machine hard-resets shortly after writing references to disk. On
machines with ext4, this will likely lead to the "empty files" problem:
the file has been renamed, but its data has not been synced to disk. The
result is that the reference is corrupt, and in the worst case this can
lead to data loss.
Implement a new option to harden references so that users and admins can
avoid this scenario by syncing locked loose and packed references to
disk before we rename them into place.

The synopsis for 'git maintenance' did not include the commands other

command is the only one of these that parses additional options, and
then only the --scheduler option.
Also move the 'register' command down after 'stop' and before
'unregister' for a logical grouping of the commands instead of an

Replace references to '--quiet' with '--no-refresh' in the advice on how to
skip refreshing the index. When the advice was introduced, '--quiet' was the
only way to avoid the expensive 'refresh_index(...)' at the end of a mixed
reset. After introducing '--no-refresh', however, '--quiet' became only a
fallback option for determining refresh behavior, overridden by
'--[no-]refresh' or 'reset.refresh' if either is set. To ensure users are
advised to use the most reliable option for avoiding 'refresh_index(...)',
replace recommendation of '--quiet' with '--[no-]refresh'.

Add a new --[no-]refresh option that is intended to explicitly determine
whether a mixed reset should end in an index refresh.
Starting at 9ac8125d1a (reset: don't compute unstaged changes after reset
when --quiet, 2018-10-23), using the '--quiet' option results in skipping
the call to 'refresh_index(...)' at the end of a mixed reset with the goal
of improving performance. However, by coupling behavior that modifies the
index with the option that silences logs, there is no way for users to have
one without the other (i.e., silenced logs with a refreshed index) without
incurring the overhead of a separate call to 'git update-index --refresh'.
Furthermore, there is minimal user-facing documentation indicating that
--quiet skips the index refresh, potentially leading to unexpected issues
executing commands after 'git reset --quiet' that do not themselves refresh
the index (e.g., internals of 'git stash', 'git read-tree').
To mitigate these issues, '--[no-]refresh' and 'reset.refresh' are
introduced to provide a dedicated mechanism for refreshing the index. When
either is set, '--quiet' and 'reset.quiet' revert to controlling only
whether logs are silenced and do not affect index refresh.

Update the advice describing index refresh from "enumerate unstaged changes"
to "refresh the index." Describing 'refresh_index(...)' as "enumerating
unstaged changes" is not fully representative of what an index refresh is
doing; more generally, it updates the properties of index entries that are
affected by outside-of-index state, e.g. CE_UPTODATE, which is affected by
the file contents on-disk. This distinction is relevant to operations that
read the index but do not refresh first - e.g., 'git read-tree' - where a
stale index may cause incorrect behavior.
In addition to changing the advice message, use the "advise" function to
print advice.

By default, git-repack(1) will update server info that is required by
the dumb HTTP transport. This can be skipped by passing the `-n` flag,
but what we're noticably missing is a config option to permanently
disable updating this information.
Add a new option "repack.updateServerInfo" which can be used to disable
the logic. Most hosting providers have turned off the dumb HTTP protocol
anyway, and on the client-side it woudln't typically be useful either.
Giving a persistent way to disable this feature thus makes quite some
sense to avoid wasting compute cycles and storage.
