2007-09-10Rework pretty_print_commit to use strbufs instead of custom buffers.Libravatar Pierre Habouzit1-6/+6
Also remove the "len" parameter, as: (1) it was used as a max boundary, and every caller used ~0u (2) we check for final NUL no matter what, so it doesn't help for speed. As a result most of the pp_* function takes 3 arguments less, and we need a lot less local variables, this makes the code way more readable, and easier to extend if needed. This patch also fixes some spacing and cosmetic issues. This patch also fixes (as a side effect) a memory leak intoruced in builtin-archive.c at commit df4a394f (fmt was xmalloc'ed and not free'd) Signed-off-by: Pierre Habouzit <madcoder@debian.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2007-08-28"format-patch --root rev" is the way to show everything.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+10
We used to trigger the special case "things not in origin" semantics only when one and only one positive ref is given, and no number (e.g. "git format-patch -4 origin") was specified, and used the general revision range semantics for everything else. This narrows the special case a bit more, by making: git format-patch --root this_version to show everything that leads to the named commit. More importantly, document the two different semantics better. The generic revision range semantics came later and bolted on without being clearly documented.

2007-06-22Finally implement "git log --follow"Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+5
Ok, I've really held off doing this too damn long, because I'm lazy, and I was always hoping that somebody else would do it. But no, people keep asking for it, but nobody actually did anything, so I decided I might as well bite the bullet, and instead of telling people they could add a "--follow" flag to "git log" to do what they want to do, I decided that it looks like I just have to do it for them.. The code wasn't actually that complicated, in that the diffstat for this patch literally says "70 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)", but I will have to admit that in order to get to this fairly simple patch, you did have to know and understand the internal git diff generation machinery pretty well, and had to really be able to follow how commit generation interacts with generating patches and generating the log. So I suspect that while I was right that it wasn't that hard, I might have been expecting too much of random people - this patch does seem to be firmly in the core "Linus or Junio" territory. To make a long story short: I'm sorry for it taking so long until I just did it. I'm not going to guarantee that this works for everybody, but you really can just look at the patch, and after the appropriate appreciative noises ("Ooh, aah") over how clever I am, you can then just notice that the code itself isn't really that complicated. All the real new code is in the new "try_to_follow_renames()" function. It really isn't rocket science: we notice that the pathname we were looking at went away, so we start a full tree diff and try to see if we can instead make that pathname be a rename or a copy from some other previous pathname. And if we can, we just continue, except we show *that* particular diff, and ever after we use the _previous_ pathname. One thing to look out for: the "rename detection" is considered to be a singular event in the _linear_ "git log" output! That's what people want to do, but I just wanted to point out that this patch is *not* carrying around a "commit,pathname" kind of pair and it's *not* going to be able to notice the file coming from multiple *different* files in earlier history. IOW, if you use "git log --follow", then you get the stupid CVS/SVN kind of "files have single identities" kind of semantics, and git log will just pick the identity based on the normal move/copy heuristics _as_if_ the history could be linearized. Put another way: I think the model is broken, but given the broken model, I think this patch does just about as well as you can do. If you have merges with the same "file" having different filenames over the two branches, git will just end up picking _one_ of the pathnames at the point where the newer one goes away. It never looks at multiple pathnames in parallel. And if you understood all that, you probably didn't need it explained, and if you didn't understand the above blathering, it doesn't really mtter to you. What matters to you is that you can now do git log -p --follow builtin-rev-list.c and it will find the point where the old "rev-list.c" got renamed to "builtin-rev-list.c" and show it as such.

2007-06-13Lift 16kB limit of log message outputLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
Traditionally we had 16kB limit when formatting log messages for output, because it was easier to arrange for the caller to have a reasonably big buffer and pass it down without ever worrying about reallocating. This changes the calling convention of pretty_print_commit() to lift this limit. Instead of the buffer and remaining length, it now takes a pointer to the pointer that points at the allocated buffer, and another pointer to the location that stores the allocated length, and reallocates the buffer as necessary. To support the user format, the error return of interpolate() needed to be changed. It used to return a bool telling "Ok the result fits", or "Sorry, I had to truncate it". Now it returns 0 on success, and returns the size of the buffer it wants in order to fit the whole result. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch of strcmp() all over the place.

2007-01-28Don't force everybody to call setup_ident().Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+0
Back when only handful commands that created commit and tag were the only users of committer identity information, it made sense to explicitly call setup_ident() to pre-fill the default value from the gecos information. But it is much simpler for programs to make the call automatic when get_ident() is called these days, since many more programs want to use the information when updating the reflog.

2007-01-25Allow non-developer to clone, checkout and fetch more easily.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The code that uses committer_info() in reflog can barf and die whenever it is asked to update a ref. And I do not think calling ignore_missing_committer_name() upfront like recent receive-pack did in the aplication is a reasonable workaround. What the patch does. - git_committer_info() takes one parameter. It used to be "if this is true, then die() if the name is not available due to bad GECOS, otherwise issue a warning once but leave the name empty". The reason was because we wanted to prevent bad commits from being made by git-commit-tree (and its callers). The value 0 is only used by "git var -l". Now it takes -1, 0 or 1. When set to -1, it does not complain but uses the pw->pw_name when name is not available. Existing 0 and 1 values mean the same thing as they used to mean before. 0 means issue warnings and leave it empty, 1 means barf and die. - ignore_missing_committer_name() and its existing caller (receive-pack, to set the reflog) have been removed. - git-format-patch, to come up with the phoney message ID when asked to thread, now passes -1 to git_committer_info(). This codepath uses only the e-mail part, ignoring the name. It used to barf and die. The other call in the same program when asked to add signed-off-by line based on committer identity still passes 1 to make sure it barfs instead of adding a bogus s-o-b line. - log_ref_write in refs.c, to come up with the name to record who initiated the ref update in the reflog, passes -1. It used to barf and die. The last change means that git-update-ref, git-branch, and commit walker backends can now be used in a repository with reflog by somebody who does not have the user identity required to make a commit. They all used to barf and die. I've run tests and all of them seem to pass, and also tried "git clone" as a user whose GECOS is empty -- git clone works again now (it was broken when reflog was enabled by default). But this definitely needs extra sets of eyeballs. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-01-22format-patch: fix bug with --stdout in a subdirectoryLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
We set the output directory to the git subdirectory prefix if one has not already been specified. However, in the case of --stdout, we explicitly _don't_ want the output directory to be set.

2006-12-27UTF-8: introduce i18n.logoutputencoding.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+2
It is plausible for somebody to want to view the commit log in a different encoding from i18n.commitencoding -- the project's policy may be UTF-8 and the user may be using a commit message hook to run iconv to conform to that policy (and either not have i18n.commitencoding to default to UTF-8 or have it explicitly set to UTF-8). Even then, Latin-1 may be more convenient for the usual pager and the terminal the user uses. The new variable i18n.logoutputencoding is used in preference to i18n.commitencoding to decide what encoding to recode the log output in when git-log and friends formats the commit log message.

While adding colour to the branch command it was pointed out that a config option like "branch.color" conflicts with the pre-existing "branch.something" namespace used for specifying default merge urls and branches. The suggested solution was to flip the order of the components to "color.branch", which I did for colourising branch. This patch does the same thing for - git-log (color.diff) - git-status (color.status) - git-diff (color.diff) - pager (color.pager) I haven't removed the old config options; but they should probably be deprecated and eventually removed to prevent future namespace collisions. I've done this deprecation by changing the documentation for the config file to match the new names; and adding the "color.XXX" options to contrib/completion/git-completion.bash. Unfortunately git-svn reads "diff.color" and "pager.color"; which I don't like to change unilaterally.

This patch on top of 'next' makes built-in git-cherry handle root commits. It moves the static function log-tree.c::diff_root_tree() to tree-diff.c and makes it more similar to diff_tree_sha1() by shuffling around arguments and factoring out the call to log_tree_diff_flush(). Consequently the name is changed to diff_root_tree_sha1(). It is a version of diff_tree_sha1() that compares the empty tree (= root tree) against a single 'real' tree. This function is then used in get_patch_id() to compute patch IDs for initial commits instead of SEGFAULTing, as the current code does if confronted with parentless commits.

Any git command that expects to work in a subdirectory of a project, and that reads the git config files (which is just about all of them) needs to make sure that it does the "setup_git_directory()" call before it tries to read the config file.

2006-07-27log and diff family: honor config even from subdirectoriesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+6
There currently is an unfortunate circular dependency between what init_revisions (the command line revision specification parser) does and setting up the log and diff options. The function uses setup_git_directory() to find the root of the project relative to the current directory and calls diff_setup() to prepare diff generation. However, some of the things that diff_setup() does needs to depend on the configuration variable, which needs to be read after setup_git_directory() is called. This patch is a low impact workaround. It first lets init_revisions() to run and do its thing, then uses git_config() and diff_setup() after it returns, so that configuration variables that affects the diff operation can be used from subdirectories.
