2021-10-20for-each-ref: delay parsing of --sort=<atom> optionsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+6
The for-each-ref family of commands invoke parsers immediately when it sees each --sort=<atom> option, and die before even seeing the other options on the command line when the <atom> is unrecognised. Instead, accumulate them in a string list, and have them parsed into a ref_sorting structure after the command line parsing is done. As a consequence, "git branch --sort=bogus -h" used to fail to give the brief help, which arguably may have been a feature, now does so, which is more consistent with how other options work. The patch is smaller than the actual extent of the "damage" to the codebase, thanks to the fact that the original code consistently used OPT_REF_SORT() macro to handle command line options. We only needed to replace the variable used for the list, and implementation of the callback function used in the macro. The old rule was for the users of the API to: - Declare ref_sorting and ref_sorting_tail variables; - OPT_REF_SORT() macro will instantiate ref_sorting instance (which may barf and die) and append it to the tail; - Append to the tail each ref_sorting read from the configuration by parsing in the config callback (which may barf and die); - See if ref_sorting is null and use ref_sorting_default() instead. Now the rule is not all that different but is simpler: - Declare ref_sorting_options string list. - OPT_REF_SORT() macro will append it to the string list; - Append to the string list the sort key read from the configuration; - call ref_sorting_options() to turn the string list to ref_sorting structure (which also deals with the default value). As side effects, this change also cleans up a few issues: - 95be717c (parse_opt_ref_sorting: always use with NONEG flag, 2019-03-20) muses that "git for-each-ref --no-sort" should simply clear the sort keys accumulated so far; it now does. - The implementation detail of "struct ref_sorting" and the helper function parse_ref_sorting() can now be private to the ref-filter API implementation. - If you set branch.sort to a bogus value, the any "git branch" invocation, not only the listing mode, would abort with the original code; now it doesn't Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-10-20branch: use ref_sorting_release()Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-3/+5
Use a ref_sorting_release() in branch.c to free the memory from the ref_sorting_options(). This plugs the final in-tree memory leak of that API. In the preceding commit the "sorting" variable was left in the cmd_branch() scope, even though that wasn't needed anymore. Move it to the "else if (list)" scope instead. We can also move the "struct string_list" only used for that branch to be declared in that block That "struct ref_sorting" does not need to be "static" (and isn't re-used). The "ref_sorting_options()" will return a valid one, we don't need to make it "static" to have it zero'd out. That it was static was another artifact of the pre-image of the preceding commit.

2021-09-27ref-filter: stop setting FILTER_REFS_INCLUDE_BROKENLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Of the ref-filter callers, for-each-ref and git-branch both set the INCLUDE_BROKEN flag (but git-tag does not, which is a weird inconsistency). But now that GIT_REF_PARANOIA is on by default, that produces almost the same outcome for all three. The one exception is that GIT_REF_PARANOIA will omit dangling symrefs. That's a better behavior for these tools, as they would never include such a symref in the main output anyway (they can't, as it doesn't point to an object). Instead they issue a warning to stderr. But that warning is somewhat useless; a dangling symref is a perfectly reasonable thing to have in your repository, and is not a sign of corruption. It's much friendlier to just quietly ignore it. And in terms of robustness, the warning gains us little. It does not impact the exit code of either tool. So while the warning _might_ clue in a user that they have an unexpected broken symref, it would not help any kind of scripted use. This patch converts for-each-ref and git-branch to stop using the INCLUDE_BROKEN flag. That gives them more reasonable behavior, and harmonizes them with git-tag. We have to change one test to adapt to the situation. t1430 tries to trigger all of the REF_ISBROKEN behaviors from the underlying ref code. It uses for-each-ref to do so (because there isn't any other mechanism). That will no longer issue a warning about the symref which points to an invalid name, as it's considered dangling (and we can instead be sure that it's _not_ mentioned on stderr). Note that we do still complain about the illegally named "broken..symref"; its problem is not that it's dangling, but the name of the symref itself is illegal.

2021-08-27branch: allow deleting dangling branches with --forceLibravatar René Scharfe1-1/+1
git branch only allows deleting branches that point to valid commits. Skip that check if --force is given, as the caller is indicating with it that they know what they are doing and accept the consequences. This allows deleting dangling branches, which previously had to be reset to a valid start-point using --force first.

2021-04-20ref-filter: reuse output bufferLibravatar ZheNing Hu1-4/+6
When we use `git for-each-ref`, every ref will allocate its own output strbuf and error strbuf. But we can reuse the final strbuf for each step ref's output. The error buffer will also be reused, despite the fact that the git will exit when `format_ref_array_item()` return a non-zero value and output the contents of the error buffer. The performance for `git for-each-ref` on the Git repository itself with performance testing tool `hyperfine` changes from 23.7 ms ± 0.9 ms to 22.2 ms ± 1.0 ms. Optimization is relatively minor. At the same time, we apply this optimization to `git tag -l` and `git branch -l`. This approach is similar to the one used by 79ed0a5 (cat-file: use a single strbuf for all output, 2018-08-14) to speed up the cat-file builtin.

2021-02-05Merge branch 'ph/use-delete-refs'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-19/+28
When removing many branches and tags, the code used to do so one ref at a time. There is another API it can use to delete multiple refs, and it makes quite a lot of performance difference when the refs are packed. * ph/use-delete-refs: use delete_refs when deleting tags or branches
2021-01-21use delete_refs when deleting tags or branchesLibravatar Phil Hord1-19/+28
'git tag -d' accepts one or more tag refs to delete, but each deletion is done by calling `delete_ref` on each argv. This is very slow when removing from packed refs. Use delete_refs instead so all the removals can be done inside a single transaction with a single update. Do the same for 'git branch -d'. Since delete_refs performs all the packed-refs delete operations inside a single transaction, if any of the deletes fail then all them will be skipped. In practice, none of them should fail since we verify the hash of each one before calling delete_refs, but some network error or odd permissions problem could have different results after this change. Also, since the file-backed deletions are not performed in the same transaction, those could succeed even when the packed-refs transaction fails. After deleting branches, remove the branch config only if the branch ref was removed and was not subsequently added back in. A manual test deleting 24,000 tags took about 30 minutes using delete_ref. It takes about 5 seconds using delete_refs. Acked-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Phil Hord <phil.hord@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-01-07branch: sort detached HEAD based on a flagLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+2
Change the ref-filter sorting of detached HEAD to check the FILTER_REFS_DETACHED_HEAD flag, instead of relying on the ref description filled-in by get_head_description() to start with "(", which in turn we expect to ASCII-sort before any other reference. For context, we'd like the detached line to appear first at the start of "git branch -l", e.g.: $ git branch -l * (HEAD detached at <hash>) master This doesn't change that, but improves on a fix made in 28438e84e04 (ref-filter: sort detached HEAD lines firstly, 2019-06-18) and gives the Chinese translation the ability to use its preferred punctuation marks again. In Chinese the fullwidth versions of punctuation like "()" are typically written as (U+FF08 fullwidth left parenthesis), (U+FF09 fullwidth right parenthesis) instead[1]. This form is used in both po/zh_{CN,TW}.po in most cases where "()" is translated in a string. Aside from that improvement to the Chinese translation, it also just makes for cleaner code that we mark any special cases in the ref_array we're sorting with flags and make the sort function aware of them, instead of piggy-backing on the general-case of strcmp() doing the right thing. As seen in the amended tests this made reverse sorting a bit more consistent. Before this we'd sometimes sort this message in the middle, now it's consistently at the beginning or end, depending on whether we're doing a normal or reverse sort. Having it at the end doesn't make much sense either, but at least it behaves consistently now. A follow-up commit will make this behavior under reverse sorting even better. I'm removing the "TRANSLATORS" comments that were in the old code while I'm at it. Those were added in d4919bb288e (ref-filter: move get_head_description() from branch.c, 2017-01-10). I think it's obvious from context, string and translation memory in typical translation tools that these are the same or similar string. 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_punctuation#Marks_similar_to_European_punctuation Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-01-07ref-filter: move ref_sorting flags to a bitfieldLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+1
Change the reverse/ignore_case/version sort flags in the ref_sorting struct into a bitfield. Having three of them was already a bit unwieldy, but it would be even more so if another flag needed a function like ref_sorting_icase_all() introduced in 76f9e569adb (ref-filter: apply --ignore-case to all sorting keys, 2020-05-03). A follow-up change will introduce such a flag, so let's move this over to a bitfield. Instead of using the usual '#define' pattern I'm using the "enum" pattern from builtin/rebase.c's b4c8eb024af (builtin rebase: support --quiet, 2018-09-04). Perhaps there's a more idiomatic way of doing the "for each in list amend mask" pattern than this "mask/on" variable combo. This function doesn't allow us to e.g. do any arbitrary changes to the bitfield for multiple flags, but I think in this case that's fine. The common case is that we're calling this with a list of one. Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-05-04ref-filter: apply --ignore-case to all sorting keysLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
All of the ref-filter users (for-each-ref, branch, and tag) take an --ignore-case option which makes filtering and sorting case-insensitive. However, this option was applied only to the first element of the ref_sorting list. So: git for-each-ref --ignore-case --sort=refname would do what you expect, but: git for-each-ref --ignore-case --sort=refname --sort=taggername would sort the primary key (taggername) case-insensitively, but sort the refname case-sensitively. We have two options here: - teach callers to set ignore_case on the whole list - replace the ref_sorting list with a struct that contains both the list of sorting keys, as well as options that apply to _all_ keys I went with the first one here, as it gives more flexibility if we later want to let the users set the flag per-key (presumably through some special syntax when defining the key; for now it's all or nothing through --ignore-case). The new test covers this by sorting on both tagger and subject case-insensitively, which should compare "a" and "A" identically, but still sort them before "b" and "B". We'll break ties by sorting on the refname to give ourselves a stable output (this is actually supposed to be done automatically, but there's another bug which will be fixed in the next commit).

2020-04-28Use OPT_CALLBACK and OPT_CALLBACK_FLibravatar Denton Liu1-4/+2
In the codebase, there are many options which use OPTION_CALLBACK in a plain ol' struct definition. However, we have the OPT_CALLBACK and OPT_CALLBACK_F macros which are meant to abstract these plain struct definitions away. These macros are useful as they semantically signal to developers that these are just normal callback option with nothing fancy happening. Replace plain struct definitions of OPTION_CALLBACK with OPT_CALLBACK or OPT_CALLBACK_F where applicable. The heavy lifting was done using the following (disgusting) shell script: #!/bin/sh do_replacement () { tr '\n' '\r' | sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\s*0,\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6)/g' | sed -e 's/{\s*OPTION_CALLBACK,\s*\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\([^,]*\),\(\s*[^[:space:]}]*\)\s*}/OPT_CALLBACK_F(\1,\2,\3,\4,\5,\6,\7)/g' | tr '\r' '\n' } for f in $(git ls-files \*.c) do do_replacement <"$f" >"$f.tmp" mv "$f.tmp" "$f" done The result was manually inspected and then reformatted to match the style of the surrounding code. Finally, using `git grep OPTION_CALLBACK \*.c`, leftover results which were not handled by the script were manually transformed.

The "--sort" parameter of for-each-ref, etc, does not handle negation, and instead returns an error to the parse-options code. But neither piece of code prints anything for the user, which may leave them confused: $ git for-each-ref --no-sort $ echo $? 129 As the comment in the callback function notes, this probably should clear the list, which would make it consistent with other list-like options (i.e., anything that uses OPT_STRING_LIST currently). Unfortunately that's a bit tricky due to the way the ref-filter code works. But in the meantime, let's at least make the error a little less confusing: - switch to using PARSE_OPT_NONEG in the option definition, which will cause the options code to produce a useful message - since this was cut-and-pasted to four different spots, let's define a single OPT_REF_SORT() macro that we can use everywhere - the callback can use BUG_ON_OPT_NEG() to make sure the correct flags are used (incidentally, this also satisfies -Wunused-parameters, since we're now looking at "unset") - expand the comment into a NEEDSWORK to make it clear that the direction is right, but the details need to be worked out Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The "-l" option in "git branch -l" is an unfortunate short-hand for "--create-reflog", but many users, both old and new, somehow expect it to be something else, perhaps "--list". This step warns when "-l" is used as a short-hand for "--create-reflog" and warns about the future repurposing of the it when it is used. * jk/branch-l-0-deprecation: branch: deprecate "-l" option t: switch "branch -l" to "branch --create-reflog" t3200: unset core.logallrefupdates when testing reflog creation
2018-06-29commit: add repository argument to lookup_commit_referenceLibravatar Stefan Beller1-3/+4
Add a repository argument to allow callers of lookup_commit_reference to be more specific about which repository to handle. This is a small mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle repositories other than the_repository yet. As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a repository other than the_repository at compile time.

2018-06-22branch: make "-l" a synonym for "--list"Libravatar Jeff King1-21/+1
The other "mode" options of git-branch have short-option aliases that are easy to type (e.g., "-d" and "-m"). Let's give "--list" the same treatment. This also makes it consistent with the similar "git tag -l" option. We didn't do this originally because "--create-reflog" was squatting on the "-l" option. Now that we've deprecated that use for long enough, we can make the switch. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-06-22branch: deprecate "-l" optionLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+21
The "-l" option is short for "--create-reflog". This has caused much confusion over the years. Most people expect it to work as "--list", because that would match the other "mode" options like -d/--delete and -m/--move, as well as the similar -l/--list option of git-tag. Adding to the confusion, using "-l" _appears_ to work as "--list" in some cases: $ git branch -l * master because the branch command defaults to listing (so even trying to specify --list in the command above is redundant). But that may bite the user later when they add a pattern, like: $ git branch -l foo which does not return an empty list, but in fact creates a new branch (with a reflog, naturally) called "foo". It's also probably quite uncommon for people to actually use "-l" to create a reflog. Since 0bee591869 (Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory., 2006-12-14), this is the default in non-bare repositories. So it's rather unfortunate that the feature squats on the short-and-sweet "-l" (which was only added in 3a4b3f269c (Create/delete branch ref logs., 2006-05-19), meaning there were only 7 months where it was actually useful). Let's deprecate "-l" in hopes of eventually re-purposing it to "--list". Note that we issue the warning only when we're not in list mode. This means that people for whom it works as a happy accident, namely: $ git branch -l master won't see the warning at all. And when we eventually switch to it meaning "--list", that will just continue to work. We do the issue the warning for these important cases: - when we are actually creating a branch, in case the user really did mean it as "--create-reflog" - when we are in some _other_ mode, like deletion. There the "-l" is a noop for now, but it will eventually conflict with any other mode request, and the user should be told that this is changing.

2018-05-29help: add --config to list all available configLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+3
Sometimes it helps to list all available config vars so the user can search for something they want. The config man page can also be used but it's harder to search if you want to focus on the variable name, for example. This is not the best way to collect the available config since it's not precise. Ideally we should have a centralized list of config in C code (pretty much like 'struct option'), but that's a lot more work. This will do for now.
