Earlier "git log -m" was changed to always produce patch output,
which would break existing scripts, which has been reverted.
* jn/log-m-does-not-imply-p:
Revert 'diff-merges: let "-m" imply "-p"'
|
|
This reverts commit f5bfcc823ba242a46e20fb6f71c9fbf7ebb222fe, which
made "git log -m" imply "--patch" by default. The logic was that
"-m", which makes diff generation for merges perform a diff against
each parent, has no use unless I am viewing the diff, so we could save
the user some typing by turning on display of the resulting diff
automatically. That wasn't expected to adversely affect scripts
because scripts would either be using a command like "git diff-tree"
that already emits diffs by default or would be combining -m with a
diff generation option such as --name-status. By saving typing for
interactive use without adversely affecting scripts in the wild, it
would be a pure improvement.
The problem is that although diff generation options are only relevant
for the displayed diff, a script author can imagine them affecting
path limiting. For example, I might run
git log -w --format=%H -- README
hoping to list commits that edited README, excluding whitespace-only
changes. In fact, a whitespace-only change is not TREESAME so the use
of -w here has no effect (since we don't apply these diff generation
flags to the diff_options struct rev_info::pruning used for this
purpose), but the documentation suggests that it should work
Suppose you specified foo as the <paths>. We shall call
commits that modify foo !TREESAME, and the rest TREESAME. (In
a diff filtered for foo, they look different and equal,
respectively.)
and a script author who has not tested whitespace-only changes
wouldn't notice.
Similarly, a script author could include
git log -m --first-parent --format=%H -- README
to filter the first-parent history for commits that modified README.
The -m is a no-op but it reflects the script author's intent. For
example, until 1e20a407fe2 (stash list: stop passing "-m" to "git
log", 2021-05-21), "git stash list" did this.
As a result, we can't safely change "-m" to imply "-p" without fear of
breaking such scripts. Restore the previous behavior.
Noticed because Rust's src/bootstrap/bootstrap.py made use of this
same construct: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/87513. That
script has been updated to omit the unnecessary "-m" option, but we
can expect other scripts in the wild to have similar expectations.

In the preceding commits we introduced new documentation that talks
about "[commit|object] prerequsite(s)", but also faithfully moved
around existing documentation that talks about the "basis".
Let's change both that moved-around documentation and other existing
documentation in the file to consistently use "[commit|object]"
prerequisite(s)" instead of talking about "basis". The mention of
"basis" isn't wrong, but readers will be helped by us using only one
term throughout the document for this concept.

Rewrite the "DESCRIPTION" section for "git bundle" to start by talking
about what bundles are in general terms, rather than diving directly
into one example of what they might be used for.
This changes documentation that's been substantially the same ever
since the command was added in 2e0afafebd8 (Add git-bundle: move
objects and references by archive, 2007-02-22).
I've split up the DESCRIPTION into that section and a "BUNDLE FORMAT"
section, it briefly discusses the format, but then links to the
technical/bundle-format.txt documentation.
The "the user must specify a basis" part of this is discussed below in
"SPECIFYING REFERENCES", and will be further elaborated on in a
subsequent commit. So I'm removing that part and letting the mention
of "revision exclusions" suffice.
There was a discussion about whether to say anything at all about
"thin packs" here[1]. I think it's good to mention it for the curious
reader willing to read the technical docs, but let's explicitly say
that there's no "thick pack", and that the difference shouldn't
matter.

Ever since Git learned to detect its install location at runtime, there
was the slightly awkward problem that it was impossible to specify paths
relative to said location.
For example, if a version of Git was shipped with custom SSL
certificates to use, there was no portable way to specify
`http.sslCAInfo`.
In Git for Windows, the problem was "solved" for years by interpreting
paths starting with a slash as relative to the runtime prefix.
However, this is not correct: such paths _are_ legal on Windows, and
they are interpreted as absolute paths in the same drive as the current
directory.
After a lengthy discussion, and an even lengthier time to mull over the
problem and its best solution, and then more discussions, we eventually
decided to introduce support for the magic sequence `%(prefix)/`. If a
path starts with this, the remainder is interpreted as relative to the
detected (runtime) prefix. If built without runtime prefix support, Git
will simply interpolate the compiled-in prefix.
If a user _wants_ to specify a path starting with the magic sequence,
they can prefix the magic sequence with `./` and voilà, the path won't
be expanded.

Because the perl language can handle binary data correctly,
add the function perl_quote_buf_with_len(), which can specify
the length of the data and prevent the data from being truncated
at '\0' to help `--format="%(raw)"` support `--perl`.

Add new formatting option `%(raw)`, which will print the raw
object data without any changes. It will help further to migrate
all cat-file formatting logic from cat-file to ref-filter.
The raw data of blob, tree objects may contain '\0', but most of
the logic in `ref-filter` depends on the output of the atom being
text (specifically, no embedded NULs in it).
E.g. `quote_formatting()` use `strbuf_addstr()` or `*._quote_buf()`
add the data to the buffer. The raw data of a tree object is
`100644 one\0...`, only the `100644 one` will be added to the buffer,
which is incorrect.
Therefore, we need to find a way to record the length of the
atom_value's member `s`. Although strbuf can already record the
string and its length, if we want to replace the type of atom_value's
member `s` with strbuf, many places in ref-filter that are filled
with dynamically allocated mermory in `v->s` are not easy to replace.
At the same time, we need to check if `v->s == NULL` in
populate_value(), and strbuf cannot easily distinguish NULL and empty
strings, but c-style "const char *" can do it. So add a new member in
`struct atom_value`: `s_size`, which can record raw object size, it
can help us add raw object data to the buffer or compare two buffers
which contain raw object data.
Note that `--format=%(raw)` cannot be used with `--python`, `--shell`,
`--tcl`, and `--perl` because if the binary raw data is passed to a
variable in such languages, these may not support arbitrary binary data
in their string variable type.

It can be useful to tell who invoked Git - was it invoked manually by a
user via CLI or script? By an IDE? In some cases - like 'repo' tool -
we can influence the source code and set the GIT_TRACE2_PARENT_SID
environment variable from the caller process. In 'repo''s case, that
parent SID is manipulated to include the string "repo", which means we
can positively identify when Git was invoked by 'repo' tool. However,
identifying parents that way requires both that we know which tools
invoke Git and that we have the ability to modify the source code of
those tools. It cannot scale to keep up with the various IDEs and
wrappers which use Git, most of which we don't know about. Learning
which tools and wrappers invoke Git, and how, would give us insight to
decide where to improve Git's usability and performance.
Unfortunately, there's no cross-platform reliable way to gather the name
of the parent process. If procfs is present, we can use that; otherwise
we will need to discover the name another way. However, the process ID
should be sufficient to look up the process name on most platforms, so
that code may be shareable.
Git for Windows gathers similar information and logs it as a "data_json"
event. However, since "data_json" has a variable format, it is difficult
to parse effectively in some languages; instead, let's pursue a
dedicated "cmd_ancestry" event to record information about the ancestry
of the current process and a consistent, parseable way.
Git for Windows also gathers information about more than one generation
of parent. In Linux further ancestry info can be gathered with procfs,
but it's unwieldy to do so. In the interest of later moving Git for
Windows ancestry logging to the 'cmd_ancestry' event, and in the
interest of later adding more ancestry to the Linux implementation - or
of adding this functionality to other platforms which have an easier
time walking the process tree - let's make 'cmd_ancestry' accept an
array of parentage.

The doc for 'submodule.recurse' starts with "Specifies if commands
recurse into submodles by default". This is not exactly true of all
commands that have a '--recurse-submodules' option. For example, 'git
pull --recurse-submodules' does not run 'git pull' in each submodule,
but rather runs 'git submodule update --recursive' so that the submodule
working trees after the pull matches the commits recorded in the
superproject.
Clarify that by just saying that it enables '--recurse-submodules'.
Note that the way this setting interacts with 'fetch.recurseSubmodules'
and 'push.recurseSubmodules', which can have other values than true or
false, is already documented since 4da9e99e6e (doc: be more precise on
(fetch|push).recurseSubmodules, 2020-04-06).

At the end of the FILES section, we indicate that you can override the
regular lookup rules with --global, etc. But:
- we're missing the --local option
- we point to GIT_CONFIG instead of --file, but the latter has much
better documentation
- we're vague about how the overrides work; the actual option
descriptions are much better here
So let's just mention the names and point people back to the OPTIONS
section. We could perhaps even delete this paragraph entirely, but the
presence of the names may give people reading FILES a clue about where
to look for more information.

The scope and utility of the GIT_CONFIG variable was drastically reduced
by dc87183189 (Only use GIT_CONFIG in "git config", not other programs,
2008-06-30). But the documentation in git-config(1) predates that, which
makes it rather misleading.
These days it is really just another way to say "--file". So let's say
that, and explicitly make it clear that it does not impact other Git
commands (like GIT_CONFIG_SYSTEM, etc, would).
I also bumped it to the bottom of the list of variables, and warned
people off of using it. We don't have any plans for deprecation at this
point, but there's little point in encouraging people to use it by
putting it at the top of the list.

Technical writing seeks to convey information with minimal
friction. One way that a reader can experience friction is if they
encounter a description of "a user" that is later simplified using a
gendered pronoun. If the reader does not consider that pronoun to
apply to them, then they can experience cognitive dissonance that
removes focus from the information.
Give some basic tips to guide us avoid unnecessary uses of gendered
description.
Using a gendered pronoun is appropriate when referring to a specific
person.
There are acceptable existing uses of gendered pronouns within the
Git codebase, such as:
* References to real people (e.g. Linus Torvalds, "the Git maintainer").
Do not misgender real people. If there is any doubt to the gender of a
person, then avoid using pronouns.
* References to fictional people with clear genders (e.g. Alice and
Bob).
* Sample text used in test cases (e.g t3702, t6432).
* The official text of the GPL license contains uses of "he or she",
but using singular "they" (or modifying the text in some other
way) is not within the scope of the Git project.
* Literal email messages in Documentation/howto/ should not be edited
for grammatical concerns such as this, unless we update the entire
document to fit the standard documentation format. If such an effort is
taken on, then the authorship would change and no longer refer to the
exact mail message.
* External projects consumed in contrib/ should not deviate solely for
style reasons. Recommended edits should be contributed to those
projects directly.
Other cases within the Git project were cleaned up by the previous
changes.

These were last bumped in commit 92c57e5c1d29 (bump rename limit
defaults (again), 2011-02-19), and were bumped both because processors
had gotten faster, and because people were getting ugly merges that
caused problems and reporting it to the mailing list (suggesting that
folks were willing to spend more time waiting).
Since that time:
* Linus has continued recommending kernel folks to set
diff.renameLimit=0 (maps to 32767, currently)
* Folks with repositories with lots of renames were happy to set
merge.renameLimit above 32767, once the code supported that, to
get correct cherry-picks
* Processors have gotten faster
* It has been discovered that the timing methodology used last time
probably used too large example files.
The last point is probably worth explaining a bit more:
* The "average" file size used appears to have been average blob size
in the linux kernel history at the time (probably v2.6.25 or
something close to it).
* Since bigger files are modified more frequently, such a computation
weights towards larger files.
* Larger files may be more likely to be modified over time, but are
not more likely to be renamed -- the mean and median blob size
within a tree are a bit higher than the mean and median of blob
sizes in the history leading up to that version for the linux
kernel.
* The mean blob size in v2.6.25 was half the average blob size in
history leading to that point
* The median blob size in v2.6.25 was about 40% of the mean blob size
in v2.6.25.
* Since the mean blob size is more than double the median blob size,
any file as big as the mean will not be compared to any files of
median size or less (because they'd be more than 50% dissimilar).
* Since it is the number of files compared that provides the O(n^2)
behavior, median-sized files should matter more than mean-sized
ones.
The combined effect of the above is that the file size used in past
calculations was likely about 5x too large. Combine that with a CPU
performance improvement of ~30%, and we can increase the limits by
a factor of sqrt(5/(1-.3)) = 2.67, while keeping the original stated
time limits.
Keeping the same approximate time limit probably makes sense for
diff.renameLimit (there is no progress feedback in e.g. git log -p),
but the experience above suggests merge.renameLimit could be extended
significantly. In fact, it probably would make sense to have an
unlimited default setting for merge.renameLimit, but that would
likely need to be coupled with changes to how progress is displayed.
(See https://lore.kernel.org/git/YOx+Ok%2FEYvLqRMzJ@coredump.intra.peff.net/
for details in that area.) For now, let's just bump the approximate
time limit from 10s to 1m.
(Note: We do not want to use actual time limits, because getting results
that depend on how loaded your system is that day feels bad, and because
we don't discover that we won't get all the renames until after we've
put in a lot of work rather than just upfront telling the user there are
too many files involved.)
Using the original time limit of 2s for diff.renameLimit, and bumping
merge.renameLimit from 10s to 60s, I found the following timings using
the simple script at the end of this commit message (on an AWS c5.xlarge
which reports as "Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8124M CPU @ 3.00GHz"):
N Timing
1300 1.995s
7100 59.973s
So let's round down to nice even numbers and bump the limits from
400->1000, and from 1000->7000.
Here is the measure_rename_perf script (adapted from
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20080211113516.GB6344@coredump.intra.peff.net/
in particular to avoid triggering the linear handling from
basename-guided rename detection):

In commit 89973554b52c (diffcore-rename: make diff-tree -l0 mean
-l<large>, 2017-11-29), -l0 was given a special magical "large" value,
but one which was not large enough for some uses (as can be seen from
commit 9f7e4bfa3b6d (diff: remove silent clamp of renameLimit,
2017-11-13). Make 0 (or a negative value) be treated as unlimited
instead and update the documentation to mention this.
