2018-08-06rebase: start implementing it as a builtinLibravatar Pratik Karki1-0/+1
This commit imitates the strategy that was used to convert the difftool to a builtin. We start by renaming the shell script `git-rebase.sh` to `git-legacy-rebase.sh` and introduce a `builtin/rebase.c` that simply executes the shell script version, unless the config setting `rebase.useBuiltin` is set to `true`. The motivation behind this is to rewrite all the functionality of the shell script version in the aforementioned `rebase.c`, one by one and be able to conveniently test new features by configuring `rebase.useBuiltin`. In the original difftool conversion, if sane_execvp() that attempts to run the legacy scripted version returned with non-negative status, the command silently exited without doing anything with success, but sane_execvp() should not return with non-negative status in the first place, so we use die() to notice such an abnormal case. We intentionally avoid reading the config directly to avoid messing up the GIT_* environment variables when we need to fall back to exec()ing the shell script. The test of builtin rebase can be done by `git -c rebase.useBuiltin=true rebase ...` Signed-off-by: Pratik Karki <predatoramigo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Modernize a less often used command. * jk/show-index: show-index: update documentation for index v2 make show-index a builtin
2018-05-29make show-index a builtinLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
The git-show-index command is built as its own separate program. There's really no good reason for this, and it means we waste extra space on disk (and CPU time running the linker). Let's fold it in to the main binary as a builtin. The history here is actually a bit amusing. The program itself is mostly self-contained, and doesn't even use our normal pack index code. In a5031214c4 (slim down "git show-index", 2010-01-21), we even stopped using xmalloc() so that it could avoid libgit.a entirely. But then 040a655116 (cleanup: use internal memory allocation wrapper functions everywhere, 2011-10-06) switched that back to xmalloc, which later become ALLOC_ARRAY(). Making it a builtin should give us the best of both worlds: no wasted space and no need to avoid the usual patterns.

2018-03-15serve: introduce git-serveLibravatar Brandon Williams1-0/+1
Introduce git-serve, the base server for protocol version 2. Protocol version 2 is intended to be a replacement for Git's current wire protocol. The intention is that it will be a simpler, less wasteful protocol which can evolve over time. Protocol version 2 improves upon version 1 by eliminating the initial ref advertisement. In its place a server will export a list of capabilities and commands which it supports in a capability advertisement. A client can then request that a particular command be executed by providing a number of capabilities and command specific parameters. At the completion of a command, a client can request that another command be executed or can terminate the connection by sending a flush packet.

2017-08-03git.c: provide setup_auto_pager()Libravatar Martin Ågren1-0/+12
The previous patch introduced a way for builtins to declare that they will take responsibility for handling the `pager.foo`-config item. (See the commit message of that patch for why that could be useful.) Provide setup_auto_pager(), which builtins can call in order to handle `pager.<cmd>`, including possibly starting the pager. Make this function don't do anything if a pager has already been started, as indicated by use_pager or pager_in_use(). Whenever this function is called from a builtin, git.c will already have called commit_pager_choice(). Since commit_pager_choice() treats the special value -1 as "punt" or "not yet decided", it is not a problem that we might end up calling commit_pager_choice() once in git.c and once (or more) in the builtin. Make the new function use -1 in the same way and document it as "punt". Don't add any users of setup_auto_pager just yet, one will follow in a later patch.

2017-08-03git.c: let builtins opt for handling `pager.foo` themselvesLibravatar Martin Ågren1-0/+8
Before launching a builtin git foo and unless mechanisms with precedence are in use, we check for and handle the `pager.foo` config. This is done without considering exactly how git foo is being used, and indeed, git.c cannot (and should not) know what the arguments to git foo are supposed to achieve. In practice this means that, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as "Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal. Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work, at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`. To allow individual builtins to make more informed decisions about when to respect `pager.foo`, introduce a flag DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG. If the flag is set, do not check `pager.foo`. Do not check for DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG in `execv_dashed_external()`. That call site is arguably wrong, although in a way that is not yet visible, and will be changed in a slightly different direction in a later patch. Don't add any users of DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG just yet, one will follow in a later patch.

2017-02-09rebase--helper: add a builtin helper for interactive rebasesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+1
Git's interactive rebase is still implemented as a shell script, despite its complexity. This implies that it suffers from the portability point of view, from lack of expressibility, and of course also from performance. The latter issue is particularly serious on Windows, where we pay a hefty price for relying so much on POSIX. Unfortunately, being such a huge shell script also means that we missed the train when it would have been relatively easy to port it to C, and instead piled feature upon feature onto that poor script that originally never intended to be more than a slightly pimped cherry-pick in a loop. To open the road toward better performance (in addition to all the other benefits of C over shell scripts), let's just start *somewhere*. The approach taken here is to add a builtin helper that at first intends to take care of the parts of the interactive rebase that are most affected by the performance penalties mentioned above. In particular, after we spent all those efforts on preparing the sequencer to process rebase -i's git-rebase-todo scripts, we implement the `git rebase -i --continue` functionality as a new builtin, git-rebase--helper. Once that is in place, we can work gradually on tackling the rest of the technical debt. Note that the rebase--helper needs to learn about the transient --ff/--no-ff options of git-rebase, as the corresponding flag is not persisted to, and re-read from, the state directory.

This feature flag will be used in the upcoming Git for Windows v2.11.0 release, to allow early testers to opt-in to use the builtin difftool and flesh out any bugs.

The infrastructure to rewrite "git submodule" in C is being built incrementally.

2015-09-03submodule: rewrite `module_list` shell function in CLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+1
Most of the submodule operations work on a set of submodules. Calculating and using this set is usually done via: module_list "$@" | { while read mode sha1 stage sm_path do # the actual operation done } Currently the function `module_list` is implemented in the git-submodule.sh as a shell script wrapping a perl script. The rewrite is in C, such that it is faster and can later be easily adapted when other functions are rewritten in C. git-submodule.sh, similar to the builtin commands, will navigate to the top-most directory of the repository and keep the subdirectory as a variable. As the helper is called from within the git-submodule.sh script, we are already navigated to the root level, but the path arguments are still relative to the subdirectory we were in when calling git-submodule.sh. That's why there is a `--prefix` option pointing to an alternative path which to anchor relative path arguments.

2015-08-04builtin-am: implement skeletal builtin amLibravatar Paul Tan1-0/+1
For the purpose of rewriting git-am.sh into a C builtin, implement a skeletal builtin/am.c that redirects to $GIT_EXEC_PATH/git-am if the environment variable _GIT_USE_BUILTIN_AM is not defined. Since in the Makefile git-am.sh takes precedence over builtin/am.c, $GIT_EXEC_PATH/git-am will contain the shell script git-am.sh, and thus this allows us to fall back on the functional git-am.sh when running the test suite for tests that depend on a working git-am implementation. Since git-am.sh cannot handle any environment modifications by setup_git_directory(), "am" is declared with no setup flags in git.c. On the other hand, to re-implement git-am.sh in builtin/am.c, we need to run all the git dir and work tree setup logic that git.c typically does for us. As such, we work around this temporarily by copying the logic in git.c's run_builtin(), which is roughly: prefix = setup_git_directory(); trace_repo_setup(prefix); setup_work_tree(); This redirection should be removed when all the features of git-am.sh have been re-implemented in builtin/am.c.

The motivation of this patch is to get closer to a goal of being able to have a core subset of git functionality built in to git.

2012-07-29diff: do not use null sha1 as a sentinel valueLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The diff code represents paths using the diff_filespec struct. This struct has a sha1 to represent the sha1 of the content at that path, as well as a sha1_valid member which indicates whether its sha1 field is actually useful. If sha1_valid is not true, then the filespec represents a working tree file (e.g., for the no-index case, or for when the index is not up-to-date). The diff_filespec is only used internally, though. At the interfaces to the diff subsystem, callers feed the sha1 directly, and we create a diff_filespec from it. It's at that point that we look at the sha1 and decide whether it is valid or not; callers may pass the null sha1 as a sentinel value to indicate that it is not. We should not typically see the null sha1 coming from any other source (e.g., in the index itself, or from a tree). However, a corrupt tree might have a null sha1, which would cause "diff --patch" to accidentally diff the working tree version of a file instead of treating it as a blob. This patch extends the edges of the diff interface to accept a "sha1_valid" flag whenever we accept a sha1, and to use that flag when creating a filespec. In some cases, this means passing the flag through several layers, making the code change larger than would be desirable. One alternative would be to simply die() upon seeing corrupted trees with null sha1s. However, this fix more directly addresses the problem (while bogus sha1s in a tree are probably a bad thing, it is really the sentinel confusion sending us down the wrong code path that is what makes it devastating). And it means that git is more capable of examining and debugging these corrupted trees. For example, you can still "diff --raw" such a tree to find out when the bogus entry was introduced; you just cannot do a "--patch" diff (just as you could not with any other corrupted tree, as we do not have any content to diff).

The credential API is in C, and not available to scripting languages. Expose the functionalities of the API by wrapping them into a new plumbing command "git credentials". In other words, replace the internal "test-credential" by an official Git command.

2012-06-15fix pager.diff with diff --no-indexLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
git-diff does not rely on the git wrapper to setup its pager; instead, it sets it up on its own after seeing whether --quiet or --exit-code has been specified. After diff_no_index was split off from cmd_diff, commit b3fde6c (git diff --no-index: default to page like other diff frontends, 2008-05-26) duplicated the one-liner from cmd_diff to turn on the pager. Later, commit 8f0359f (Allow pager of diff command be enabled/disabled, 2008-07-21) taught the the version in cmd_diff to respect the pager.diff config, but the version in diff_no_index was left behind. This meant that git -c pager.diff=0 diff a b would not use a pager, but git -c pager.diff=0 diff --no-index a b would. Let's fix it by factoring out a common function. While we're there, let's update the antiquated comment, which claims that the pager interferes with propagating the exit code; this has not been the case since ea27a18 (spawn pager via run_command interface, 2008-07-22).

2012-06-03move git_version_string into version.cLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+0
The global git_version_string currently lives in git.c, but doesn't have anything to do with the git wrapper. Let's move it into its own file, where it will be more appropriate to build more version-related functions. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-04-27Add column layout skeleton and git-columnLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+1
A column option string consists of many token separated by either a space or a comma. A token belongs to one of three groups: - enabling: always, never and auto - layout mode: currently plain (which does not layout at all) - other future tuning flags git-column can be used to pipe output to from a command that wants column layout, but not to mess with its own output code. Simpler output code can be changed to use column layout code directly.
