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.

70999e9cec (branch -m: update all per-worktree HEADs - 2016-03-27) added this function in order to update HEADs of all relevant worktrees, when a branch is renamed. It, as a public ref api, kind of breaks abstraction when it uses internal functions of files backend.

2017-03-30create_branch: use xstrfmt for reflog messageLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+4
We generate a reflog message that contains some fixed text plus a branch name, and use a buffer of size PATH_MAX + 20. This mostly works if you assume that refnames are shorter than PATH_MAX, but: 1. That's not necessarily true. PATH_MAX is not always the filesystem's limit. 2. The "20" is not sufficiently large for the fixed text anyway. Let's just switch to a heap buffer so we don't have to even care. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2017-03-30create_branch: move msg setup closer to point of useLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+9
In create_branch() we write the reflog msg into a buffer in the main function, but then use it only inside a conditional. If you carefully follow the logic, you can confirm that we never use the buffer uninitialized nor write when it would not be used. But we can make this a lot more obvious by simply moving the write step inside the conditional. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2017-02-20branch: record creation of renamed branch in HEAD's logLibravatar Kyle Meyer1-2/+3
Renaming the current branch adds an event to the current branch's log and to HEAD's log. However, the logged entries differ. The entry in the branch's log represents the entire renaming operation (the old and new hash are identical), whereas the entry in HEAD's log represents the deletion only (the new sha1 is null). Extend replace_each_worktree_head_symref(), whose only caller is branch_rename(), to take a reflog message argument. This allows the creation of the new ref to be recorded in HEAD's log. As a result, the renaming event is represented by two entries (a deletion and a creation entry) in HEAD's log. It's a bit unfortunate that the branch's log and HEAD's log now represent the renaming event in different ways. Given that the renaming operation is not atomic, the two-entry form is a more accurate representation of the operation and is more useful for debugging purposes if a failure occurs between the deletion and creation events. It would make sense to move the branch's log to the two-entry form, but this would involve changes to how the rename is carried out and to how the update flags and reflogs are processed for deletions, so it may not be worth the effort.

2017-01-31refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = alwaysLibravatar Cornelius Weig1-1/+1
When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old history immediately). However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than the performance implications of keeping the log around. This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

2016-11-09create_branch: drop unused "head" parameterLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+1
This function used to have the caller pass in the current value of HEAD, in order to make sure we didn't clobber HEAD. In 55c4a6730, that logic moved to validate_new_branchname(), which just resolves HEAD itself. The parameter to create_branch is now unused. Since we have to update and re-wrap the docstring describing the parameters anyway, let's take this opportunity to break it out into a list, which makes it easier to find the parameters.

2016-04-22worktree.c: check whether branch is rebased in another worktreeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+2
This function find_shared_symref() is used in a couple places: 1) in builtin/branch.c: it's used to detect if a branch is checked out elsewhere and refuse to delete the branch. 2) in builtin/notes.c: it's used to detect if a note is being merged in another worktree 3) in branch.c, the function die_if_checked_out() is actually used by "git checkout" and "git worktree add" to see if a branch is already checked out elsewhere and refuse the operation. In cases 1 and 3, if a rebase is ongoing, "HEAD" will be in detached mode, find_shared_symref() fails to detect it and declares "no branch is checked out here", which is not really what we want. This patch tightens the test. If the given symref is "HEAD", we try to detect if rebase is ongoing. If so return the branch being rebased. This makes checkout and branch delete operations safer because you can't checkout a branch being rebased in another place, or delete it. Special case for checkout. If the current branch is being rebased, git-rebase.sh may use "git checkout" to abort and return back to the original branch. The updated test in find_shared_symref() will prevent that and "git rebase --abort" will fail as a result. find_shared_symref() and die_if_checked_out() have to learn a new option ignore_current_worktree to loosen the test a bit.

2016-04-04branch -m: update all per-worktree HEADsLibravatar Kazuki Yamaguchi1-0/+23
When renaming a branch, currently only the HEAD of current working tree is updated, but it must update HEADs of all working trees which point at the old branch. This is the current behavior, /path/to/wt's HEAD is not updated: % git worktree list /path/to 2c3c5f2 [master] /path/to/wt 2c3c5f2 [oldname] % git branch -m master master2 % git worktree list /path/to 2c3c5f2 [master2] /path/to/wt 2c3c5f2 [oldname] % git branch -m oldname newname % git worktree list /path/to 2c3c5f2 [master2] /path/to/wt 0000000 [oldname] This patch fixes this issue by updating all relevant worktree HEADs when renaming a branch.

2016-02-22config: rename git_config_set to git_config_set_gentlyLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-3/+3
The desired default behavior for `git_config_set` is to die whenever an error occurs. Dying is the default for a lot of internal functions when failures occur and is in this case the right thing to do for most callers as otherwise we might run into inconsistent repositories without noticing. As some code may rely on the actual return values for `git_config_set` we still require the ability to invoke these functions without aborting. Rename the existing `git_config_set` functions to `git_config_set_gently` to keep them available for those callers.

2016-02-22branch: report errors in tracking branch setupLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-14/+36
When setting up a new tracking branch fails due to issues with the configuration file we do not report any errors to the user and pretend setting the tracking branch succeeded. Setting up the tracking branch is handled by the `install_branch_config` function. We do not want to simply die there as the function is not only invoked when explicitly setting upstream information with `git branch --set-upstream-to=`, but also by `git push --set-upstream` and `git clone`. While it is reasonable to die in the explict first case, we would lose information in the latter two cases, so we only print the error message but continue the program as usual.

2015-08-10memoize common git-path "constant" filesLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+7
One of the most common uses of git_path() is to pass a constant, like git_path("MERGE_MSG"). This has two drawbacks: 1. The return value is a static buffer, and the lifetime is dependent on other calls to git_path, etc. 2. There's no compile-time checking of the pathname. This is OK for a one-off (after all, we have to spell it correctly at least once), but many of these constant strings appear throughout the code. This patch introduces a series of functions to "memoize" these strings, which are essentially globals for the lifetime of the program. We compute the value once, take ownership of the buffer, and return the cached value for subsequent calls. cache.h provides a helper macro for defining these functions as one-liners, and defines a few common ones for global use. Using a macro is a little bit gross, but it does nicely document the purpose of the functions. If we need to touch them all later (e.g., because we learned how to change the git_dir variable at runtime, and need to invalidate all of the stored values), it will be much easier to have the complete list. Note that the shared-global functions have separate, manual declarations. We could do something clever with the macros (e.g., expand it to a declaration in some places, and a declaration _and_ a definition in path.c). But there aren't that many, and it's probably better to stay away from too-magical macros. Likewise, if we abandon the C preprocessor in favor of generating these with a script, we could get much fancier. E.g., normalizing "FOO/BAR-BAZ" into "git_path_foo_bar_baz". But the small amount of saved typing is probably not worth the resulting confusion to readers who want to grep for the function's definition.

2014-08-07change `git_config()` return value to voidLibravatar Tanay Abhra1-4/+1
Currently `git_config()` returns an integer signifying an error code. During rewrites of the function most of the code was shifted to `git_config_with_options()`. `git_config_with_options()` normally returns positive values if its `config_source` parameter is set as NULL, as most errors are fatal, and non-fatal potential errors are guarded by "if" statements that are entered only when no error is possible. Still a negative value can be returned in case of race condition between `access_or_die()` & `git_config_from_file()`. Also, all callers of `git_config()` ignore the return value except for one case in branch.c. Change `git_config()` return value to void and make it die if it receives a negative value from `git_config_with_options()`.

2014-06-20refactor skip_prefix to return a booleanLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
The skip_prefix() function returns a pointer to the content past the prefix, or NULL if the prefix was not found. While this is nice and simple, in practice it makes it hard to use for two reasons: 1. When you want to conditionally skip or keep the string as-is, you have to introduce a temporary variable. For example: tmp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo"); if (tmp) buf = tmp; 2. It is verbose to check the outcome in a conditional, as you need extra parentheses to silence compiler warnings. For example: if ((cp = skip_prefix(buf, "foo")) /* do something with cp */ Both of these make it harder to use for long if-chains, and we tend to use starts_with() instead. However, the first line of "do something" is often to then skip forward in buf past the prefix, either using a magic constant or with an extra strlen(3) (which is generally computed at compile time, but means we are repeating ourselves). This patch refactors skip_prefix() to return a simple boolean, and to provide the pointer value as an out-parameter. If the prefix is not found, the out-parameter is untouched. This lets you write: if (skip_prefix(arg, "foo ", &arg)) do_foo(arg); else if (skip_prefix(arg, "bar ", &arg)) do_bar(arg); Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-03-05branch.c: delete size check of newly tracked branch namesLibravatar Jacopo Notarstefano1-4/+0
Since commit 6f084a56 the length of a newly tracked branch name was limited to 1019 = 1024 - 7 - 7 - 1 characters, a bound derived by having to store this name in a char[1024] called key with two strings of length at most 7 and a '\0' character. This was no longer necessary as of commit a9f2c136, which uses a strbuf (documented in Documentation/technical/api-strbuf.txt) to store this value. Remove this unneeded check to allow branch names longer than 1019 characters. Signed-off-by: Jacopo Notarstefano <jacopo.notarstefano@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-12-05replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()Libravatar Christian Couder1-2/+2
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API functions. The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this: $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c | grep -v strbuf\\.c | xargs perl -pi -e ' s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g; s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g; s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g; s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g; ' on the result of preparatory changes in this series.
