* jc/maint-apply-match-beginning: Fix "git apply" to correctly enforce "match at the beginning"
2008-04-06Fix "git apply" to correctly enforce "match at the beginning"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-13/+16
An earlier commit 4be6096 (apply --unidiff-zero: loosen sanity checks for --unidiff=0 patches, 2006-09-17) made match_beginning and match_end computed incorrectly. If a hunk inserts at the beginning, old position recorded at the hunk is line 0, and if a hunk changes at the beginning, it is line 1. The new test added to t4104 exposes that the old code did not insist on matching at the beginning for a patch to add a line to an empty file. An even older 65aadb9 (apply: force matching at the beginning., 2006-05-24) was equally wrong in that it tried to take hints from the number of leading context lines, to decide if the hunk must match at the beginning, but we can just look at the line number in the hunk to decide.

2008-02-06safecrlf: Add mechanism to warn about irreversible crlf conversionsLibravatar Steffen Prohaska1-1/+1
CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. autocrlf=true will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by git. For text files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the conversion can corrupt data. If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right after committing you still have the original file in your work tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell git that this file is binary and git will handle the file appropriately. Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files converting CRLFs corrupts data. This patch adds a mechanism that can either warn the user about an irreversible conversion or can even refuse to convert. The mechanism is controlled by the variable core.safecrlf, with the following values: - false: disable safecrlf mechanism - warn: warn about irreversible conversions - true: refuse irreversible conversions The default is to warn. Users are only affected by this default if core.autocrlf is set. But the current default of git is to leave core.autocrlf unset, so users will not see warnings unless they deliberately chose to activate the autocrlf mechanism. The safecrlf mechanism's details depend on the git command. The general principles when safecrlf is active (not false) are: - we warn/error out if files in the work tree can modified in an irreversible way without giving the user a chance to backup the original file. - for read-only operations that do not modify files in the work tree we do not not print annoying warnings. There are exceptions. Even though... - "git add" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, the next checkout would, so the safety triggers; - "git apply" to update a text file with a patch does touch the files in the work tree, but the operation is about text files and CRLF conversion is about fixing the line ending inconsistencies, so the safety does not trigger; - "git diff" itself does not touch the files in the work tree, it is often run to inspect the changes you intend to next "git add". To catch potential problems early, safety triggers. The concept of a safety check was originally proposed in a similar way by Linus Torvalds. Thanks to Dimitry Potapov for insisting on getting the naked LF/autocrlf=true case right. Signed-off-by: Steffen Prohaska <prohaska@zib.de>
2008-02-05core.whitespace: cr-at-eolLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+14
This new error mode allows a line to have a carriage return at the end of the line when checking and fixing trailing whitespace errors. Some people like to keep CRLF line ending recorded in the repository, and still want to take advantage of the automated trailing whitespace stripping. We still show ^M in the diff output piped to "less" to remind them that they do have the CR at the end, but these carriage return characters at the end are no longer flagged as errors.

2008-02-05git-apply --whitespace=fix: fix whitespace fuzz introduced by previous runLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+128
When you have more than one patch series, an earlier one of which tries to introduce whitespace breakages and a later one of which has such a new line in its context, "git-apply --whitespace=fix" will apply and fix the whitespace breakages in the earlier one, making the resulting file not to match the context of the later patch. A short demonstration is in the new test, t4125. For example, suppose the first patch is: diff a/hello.txt b/hello.txt --- a/hello.txt +++ b/hello.txt @@ -20,3 +20,3 @@ Hello world.$ -How Are you$ -Today?$ +How are you $ +today? $ to fix broken case in the string, but it introduces unwanted trailing whitespaces to the result (pretend you are looking at "cat -e" output of the patch --- '$' signs are not in the patch but are shown to make the EOL stand out). And the second patch is to change the wording of the greeting further: diff a/hello.txt b/hello.txt --- a/hello.txt +++ b/hello.txt @@ -18,5 +18,5 @@ Greetings $ -Hello world.$ +Hello, everybody. $ How are you $ -today? $ +these days? $ If you apply the first one with --whitespace=fix, you will get this as the result: Hello world.$ How are you$ today?$ and this does not match the preimage of the second patch, which demands extra whitespace after "How are you" and "today?". This series is about teaching "git apply --whitespace=fix" to cope with this situation better. If the patch does not apply, it rewrites the second patch like this and retries: diff a/hello.txt b/hello.txt --- a/hello.txt +++ b/hello.txt @@ -18,5 +18,5 @@ Greetings$ -Hello world.$ +Hello, everybody.$ How are you$ -today?$ +these days?$ This is done by rewriting the preimage lines in the hunk (i.e. the lines that begin with ' ' or '-'), using the same whitespace fixing rules as it is using to apply the patches, so that it can notice what it did to the previous ones in the series. A careful reader may notice that the first patch in the example did not touch the "Greetings" line, so the trailing whitespace that is in the original preimage of the second patch is not from the series. Is rewriting this context line a problem? If you think about it, you will realize that the reason for the difference is because the submitter's tree was based on an earlier version of the file that had whitespaces wrong on that "Greetings" line, and the change that introduced the "Greetings" line was added independently of this two-patch series to our tree already with an earlier "git apply --whitespace=fix". So it may appear this logic is rewriting too much, it is not so. It is just rewriting what we would have rewritten in the past. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-02-05builtin-apply.c: clean-up apply_one_fragment()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-28/+27
We had two pointer variables pointing to the same buffer and an integer variable used to index into its tail part that was active (old, oldlines and oldsize for the preimage, and their 'new' counterparts for the postimage). To help readability, use 'oldlines' as the allocated pointer, and use 'old' as the pointer to the tail that advances while the code builds up the contents in the buffer. The size 'oldsize' can be computed as (old-oldines). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-02-05builtin-apply.c: mark common context lines in lineinfo structure.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-25/+32
This updates the way preimage and postimage in a patch hunk is parsed and prepared for applying. By looking at image->line[n].flag, the code can tell if it is a common context line that is the same between the preimage and the postimage. This matters when we actually start applying a patch with contexts that have whitespace breakages that have already been fixed in the target file.
2008-02-05builtin-apply.c: optimize match_beginning/end processing a bit.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+10
Wnen the caller knows the hunk needs to match at the beginning or at the end, there is no point starting from the line number that is found in the patch and trying match with increasing offset. The logic to find matching lines was made more line oriented with the previous patch and this optimization is now trivial. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-02-05builtin-apply.c: make it more line orientedLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-123/+280
This changes the way git-apply internally works to be more line oriented. The logic to find where the patch applies with offset used to count line numbers by always counting LF from the beginning of the buffer, but it is simplified because we count the line length of the target file and the preimage snippet upfront now. The ultimate motivation is to allow applying patches whose preimage context has whitespace corruption that has already been corrected in the local copy. For that purpose, we introduce a table of line-hash that allows us to match lines that differ only in whitespaces. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-02-05builtin-apply.c: push match-beginning/end logic downLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-14/+32
This moves the logic to force match at the beginning and/or at the end of the buffer to the actual function that finds the match from its caller. This is a necessary preparation for the next step to allow matching disregarding certain differences, such as whitespace changes. We probably could optimize this even more by taking advantage of the fact that match_beginning and match_end forces the match to be at an exact location (anchored at the beginning and/or the end), but that's for another commit.

2008-01-21Make on-disk index representation separate from in-core oneLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-5/+5
This converts the index explicitly on read and write to its on-disk format, allowing the in-core format to contain more flags, and be simpler. In particular, the in-core format is now host-endian (as opposed to the on-disk one that is network endian in order to be able to be shared across machines) and as a result we can dispense with all the htonl/ntohl on accesses to the cache_entry fields. This will make it easier to make use of various temporary flags that do not exist in the on-disk format. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-01-08"git-apply --check" should not report "fixed"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
When running "git apply --check" while --whitespace=fix is enabled (either from the command line or via the configuration), we reported that "N line(s) applied after _fixing_", but --check by itself does not apply and this message was alarming. We could even reword the message to say "N line(s) would have been applied after fixing...", but this patch does not go that far. Instead, we just make it use the "N lines add whitespace errors" warning, which happens to be a good diagnostic message a user would expect from the --check option.

For consistency, make the two tools report whitespace errors in the same way (the output of "diff --check" has been tweaked to match that of "git apply"). Note that although the textual content is basically the same only "git diff --check" provides a colorized version of the problematic lines; making "git apply" do colorization will require more extensive changes (figuring out the diff colorization preferences of the user) and so that will be a subject for another commit.

2007-12-13Unify whitespace checkingLibravatar Wincent Colaiuta1-44/+10
This commit unifies three separate places where whitespace checking was performed: - the whitespace checking previously done in builtin-apply.c is extracted into a function in ws.c - the equivalent logic in "git diff" is removed - the emit_line_with_ws() function is also removed because that also rechecks the whitespace, and its functionality is rolled into ws.c The new function is called check_and_emit_line() and it does two things: checks a line for whitespace errors and optionally emits it. The checking is based on lines of content rather than patch lines (in other words, the caller must strip the leading "+" or "-"); this was suggested by Junio on the mailing list to allow for a future extension to "git show" to display whitespace errors in blobs. At the same time we teach it to report all classes of whitespace errors found for a given line rather than reporting only the first found error.

2007-12-06Use gitattributes to define per-path whitespace ruleLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-14/+22
The `core.whitespace` configuration variable allows you to define what `diff` and `apply` should consider whitespace errors for all paths in the project (See gitlink:git-config[1]). This attribute gives you finer control per path. For example, if you have these in the .gitattributes: frotz whitespace nitfol -whitespace xyzzy whitespace=-trailing all types of whitespace problems known to git are noticed in path 'frotz' (i.e. diff shows them in diff.whitespace color, and apply warns about them), no whitespace problem is noticed in path 'nitfol', and the default types of whitespace problems except "trailing whitespace" are noticed for path 'xyzzy'.

The variables were somewhat misnamed. * "What to do when whitespace errors are detected" is now called "ws_error_action" (used to be called "new_whitespace"); * The constants to denote the possible actions are "nowarn_ws_error", "warn_on_ws_error", "die_on_ws_error", and "correct_ws_error". The last one used to be "strip_whitespace", but we correct whitespace error in indent (SP followed by HT) and "strip" is not quite an accurate name for it. Other than the renaming of variables and constants, there is no functional change in this patch. While we are at it, it also fixes overly long lines and multi-line comment styles (which of course do not affect the generated code at all). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

For that purpose, the ->buf is always initialized with a char * buf living in the strbuf module. It is made a char * so that we can sloppily accept things that perform: sb->buf[0] = '\0', and because you can't pass "" as an initializer for ->buf without making gcc unhappy for very good reasons. strbuf_init/_detach/_grow have been fixed to trust ->alloc and not ->buf anymore. as a consequence strbuf_detach is _mandatory_ to detach a buffer, copying ->buf isn't an option anymore, if ->buf is going to escape from the scope, and eventually be free'd. API changes: * strbuf_setlen now always works, so just make strbuf_reset a convenience macro. * strbuf_detatch takes a size_t* optional argument (meaning it can be NULL) to copy the buffer's len, as it was needed for this refactor to make the code more readable, and working like the callers.

* quote_c_style works on a strbuf instead of a wild buffer. * quote_c_style is now clever enough to not add double quotes if not needed. * write_name_quoted inherits those advantages, but also take a different set of arguments. Now instead of asking for quotes or not, you pass a "terminator". If it's \0 then we assume you don't want to escape, else C escaping is performed. In any case, the terminator is also appended to the stream. It also no longer takes the prefix/prefix_len arguments, as it's seldomly used, and makes some optimizations harder. * write_name_quotedpfx is created to work like write_name_quoted and take the prefix/prefix_len arguments. Thanks to those API changes, diff.c has somehow lost weight, thanks to the removal of functions that were wrappers around the old write_name_quoted trying to give it a semantics like the new one, but performing a lot of allocations for this goal. Now we always write directly to the stream, no intermediate allocation is performed. As a side effect of the refactor in builtin-apply.c, the length of the bar graphs in diffstats are not affected anymore by the fact that the path was clipped.
