2017-05-08tree: convert parse_tree_indirect to struct object_idLibravatar brian m. carlson1-2/+2
Convert parse_tree_indirect to take a pointer to struct object_id. Update all the callers. This transformation was achieved using the following semantic patch and manual updates to the declaration and definition. Update builtin/checkout.c manually as well, since it uses a ternary expression not handled by the semantic patch. @@ expression E1; @@ - parse_tree_indirect(E1.hash) + parse_tree_indirect(&E1) @@ expression E1; @@ - parse_tree_indirect(E1->hash) + parse_tree_indirect(E1) Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-05-08Convert lookup_commit* to struct object_idLibravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+1
Convert lookup_commit, lookup_commit_or_die, lookup_commit_reference, and lookup_commit_reference_gently to take struct object_id arguments. Introduce a temporary in parse_object buffer in order to convert this function. This is required since in order to convert parse_object and parse_object_buffer, lookup_commit_reference_gently and lookup_commit_or_die would need to be converted. Not introducing a temporary would therefore require that lookup_commit_or_die take a struct object_id *, but lookup_commit would take unsigned char *, leaving a confusing and hard-to-use interface. parse_object_buffer will lose this temporary in a later patch.

2015-10-05avoid sprintf and strcpy with flex arraysLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
When we are allocating a struct with a FLEX_ARRAY member, we generally compute the size of the array and then sprintf or strcpy into it. Normally we could improve a dynamic allocation like this by using xstrfmt, but it doesn't work here; we have to account for the size of the rest of the struct. But we can improve things a bit by storing the length that we use for the allocation, and then feeding it to xsnprintf or memcpy, which makes it more obvious that we are not writing more than the allocated number of bytes. It would be nice if we had some kind of helper for allocating generic flex arrays, but it doesn't work that well: - the call signature is a little bit unwieldy: d = flex_struct(sizeof(*d), offsetof(d, path), fmt, ...); You need offsetof here instead of just writing to the end of the base size, because we don't know how the struct is packed (partially this is because FLEX_ARRAY might not be zero, though we can account for that; but the size of the struct may actually be rounded up for alignment, and we can't know that). - some sites do clever things, like over-allocating because they know they will write larger things into the buffer later (e.g., struct packed_git here). So we're better off to just write out each allocation (or add type-specific helpers, though many of these are one-off allocations anyway).

2015-06-29convert "enum date_mode" into a structLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the date_mode enum into a struct. Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}" constructor. However, the tricky case is where we use the enum labels as constants, like: show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL); Ideally we could say: show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL }); but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an actual address. Our options are basically: 1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }" definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch statement). 2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822", "date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness is defined in one place. 3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant. But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not matter. This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep the size of the callers sane.

"git archive" learned to filter what gets archived with pathspec. * nd/archive-pathspec: archive: support filtering paths with glob
2014-09-22archive: support filtering paths with globLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+94
This patch fixes two problems with using :(glob) (or even "*.c" without ":(glob)"). The first one is we forgot to turn on the 'recursive' flag in struct pathspec. Without that, tree_entry_interesting() will not mark potential directories "interesting" so that it can confirm whether those directories have anything matching the pathspec. The marking directories interesting has a side effect that we need to walk inside a directory to realize that there's nothing interested in there. By that time, 'archive' code has already written the (empty) directory down. That means lots of empty directories in the result archive. This problem is fixed by lazily writing directories down when we know they are actually needed. There is a theoretical bug in this implementation: we can't write empty trees/directories that match that pathspec. path_exists() is also made stricter in order to detect non-matching pathspec because when this 'recursive' flag is on, we most likely match some directories. The easiest way is not consider any directories "matched".

2014-02-28add uploadarchive.allowUnreachable optionLibravatar Scott J. Goldman1-2/+11
In commit ee27ca4, we started restricting remote git-archive invocations to only accessing reachable commits. This matches what upload-pack allows, but does restrict some useful cases (e.g., HEAD:foo). We loosened this in 0f544ee, which allows `foo:bar` as long as `foo` is a ref tip. However, that still doesn't allow many useful things, like: 1. Commits accessible from a ref, like `foo^:bar`, which are reachable 2. Arbitrary sha1s, even if they are reachable. We can do a full object-reachability check for these cases, but it can be quite expensive if the client has sent us the sha1 of a tree; we have to visit every sub-tree of every commit in the worst case. Let's instead give site admins an escape hatch, in case they prefer the more liberal behavior. For many sites, the full object database is public anyway (e.g., if you allow dumb walker access), or the site admin may simply decide the security/convenience tradeoff is not worth it. This patch adds a new config option to disable the restrictions added in ee27ca4. It defaults to off, meaning there is no change in behavior by default.

2013-03-10archive: handle commits with an empty treeLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
git-archive relies on get_pathspec to convert its argv into a list of pathspecs. When get_pathspec is given an empty argv list, it returns a single pathspec, the empty string, to indicate that everything matches. When we feed this to our path_exists function, we typically see that the pathspec turns up at least one item in the tree, and we are happy. But when our tree is empty, we erroneously think it is because the pathspec is too limited, when in fact it is simply that there is nothing to be found in the tree. This is a weird corner case, but the correct behavior is almost certainly to produce an empty archive, not to exit with an error. This patch teaches git-archive to create empty archives when there is no pathspec given (we continue to complain if a pathspec is given, since it obviously is not matched). It also confirms that the tar and zip writers produce sane output in this instance. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-11-21archive: don't let remote clients get unreachable commitsLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+15
Usually git is careful not to allow clients to fetch arbitrary objects from the database; for example, objects received via upload-pack must be reachable from a ref. Upload-archive breaks this by feeding the client's tree-ish directly to get_sha1, which will accept arbitrary hex sha1s, reflogs, etc. This is not a problem if all of your objects are publicly reachable anyway (or at least public to anybody who can run upload-archive). Or if you are making the repo available by dumb protocols like http or rsync (in which case the client can read your whole object db directly). But for sites which allow access only through smart protocols, clients may be able to fetch trees from commits that exist in the server's object database but are not referenced (e.g., because history was rewound). This patch tightens upload-archive's lookup to use dwim_ref rather than get_sha1. This means a remote client can only fetch the tip of a named ref, not an arbitrary sha1 or reflog entry. This also restricts some legitimate requests, too: 1. Reachable non-tip commits, like: git archive --remote=$url v1.0~5 2. Sub-trees of reachable commits, like: git archive --remote=$url v1.7.7:Documentation Local requests continue to use get_sha1, and are not restricted at all.

2011-06-22archive: refactor file extension format-guessingLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+19
Git-archive will guess a format from the output filename if no format is explicitly given. The current function just hardcodes "zip" to the zip format, and leaves everything else NULL (which will default to tar). Since we are about to add user-specified formats, we need to be more flexible. The new rule is "if a filename ends with a dot and the name of a format, it matches that format". For the existing "tar" and "zip" formats, this is identical to the current behavior. For new user-specified formats, this will do what the user expects if they name their formats appropriately. Because we will eventually start matching arbitrary user-specified extensions that may include dots, the strrchr search for the final dot is not sufficient. We need to do an actual suffix match with each extension. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-06-22archive: move file extension format-guessing lowerLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+21
The process for guessing an archive output format based on the filename is something like this: a. parse --output in cmd_archive; check the filename against a static set of mapping heuristics (right now it just matches ".zip" for zip files). b. if found, stick a fake "--format=zip" at the beginning of the arguments list (if the user did specify a --format manually, the later option will override our fake one) c. if it's a remote call, ship the arguments to the remote (including the fake), which will call write_archive on their end d. if it's local, ship the arguments to write_archive locally There are two problems: 1. The set of mappings is static and at too high a level. The write_archive level is going to check config for user-defined formats, some of which will specify extensions. We need to delay lookup until those are parsed, so we can match against them. 2. For a remote archive call, our set of mappings (or formats) may not match the remote side's. This is OK in practice right now, because all versions of git understand "zip" and "tar". But as new formats are added, there is going to be a mismatch between what the client can do and what the remote server can do. To fix (1), this patch refactors the location guessing to happen at the write_archive level, instead of the cmd_archive level. So instead of sticking a fake --format field in the argv list, we actually pass a "name hint" down the callchain; this hint is used at the appropriate time to guess the format (if one hasn't been given already). This patch leaves (2) unfixed. The name_hint is converted to a "--format" option as before, and passed to the remote. This means the local side's idea of how extensions map to formats will take precedence. Another option would be to pass the name hint to the remote side and let the remote choose. This isn't a good idea for two reasons: 1. There's no room in the protocol for passing that information. We can pass a new argument, but older versions of git on the server will choke on it. 2. Letting the remote side decide creates a silent inconsistency in user experience. Consider the case that the locally installed git knows about the "tar.gz" format, but a remote server doesn't. Running "git archive -o foo.tar.gz" will use the tar.gz format. If we use --remote, and the local side chooses the format, then we send "--format=tar.gz" to the remote, which will complain about the unknown format. But if we let the remote side choose the format, then it will realize that it doesn't know about "tar.gz" and output uncompressed tar without even issuing a warning.

2011-06-22archive: refactor list of archive formatsLibravatar Jeff King1-16/+17
Most of the tar and zip code was nicely split out into two abstracted files which knew only about their specific formats. The entry point to this code was a single "write archive" function. However, as these basic formats grow more complex (e.g., by handling multiple file extensions and format names), a static list of the entry point functions won't be enough. Instead, let's provide a way for the tar and zip code to tell the main archive code what they support by registering archiver names and functions.

2011-06-15archive: reorder option parsing and config readingLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+14
The archive command does three things during its initialization phase: 1. parse command-line options 2. setup the git directory 3. read config During phase (1), if we see any options that do not require a git directory (like "--list"), we handle them immediately and exit, making it safe to abort step (2) if we are not in a git directory. Step (3) must come after step (2), since the git directory may influence configuration. However, this leaves no possibility of configuration from step (3) impacting the command-line options in step (1) (which is useful, for example, for supporting user-configurable output formats). Instead, let's reorder this to: 1. setup the git directory, if it exists 2. read config 3. parse command-line options 4. if we are not in a git repository, die This should have the same external behavior, but puts configuration before command-line parsing.

2011-03-25Convert read_tree{,_recursive} to support struct pathspecLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-6/+12
This patch changes behavior of the two functions. Previously it does prefix matching only. Now it can also do wildcard matching. All callers are updated. Some gain wildcard matching (archive, checkout), others reset pathspec_item.has_wildcard to retain old behavior (ls-files, ls-tree as they are plumbing).

2010-11-15add description parameter to OPT__VERBOSELibravatar René Scharfe1-1/+1
Allows better help text to be defined than "be verbose". Also make use of the macro in places that already had a different description. No object code changes intended. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
