Since 480ca64 (convert run_add_interactive to use struct pathspec - 2013-07-14), we have unconditionally passed :(prefix)xxx to add-interactive.perl. It implies that all commands add-interactive.perl calls must be aware of pathspec magic, or :(prefix) is barfed. The restriction to :/ only becomes unnecessary.

2013-08-05Remove deprecated OPTION_BOOLEAN for parsing argumentsLibravatar Stefan Beller1-3/+2
As of b04ba2bb4 OPTION_BOOLEAN was deprecated. This commit removes all occurrences of OPTION_BOOLEAN. In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter. So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option in parse-options.h to make life easy. The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref. The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern, so we could think of introducing OPT_NONEG_BOOL.

2013-07-09Convert "struct cache_entry *" to "const ..." wherever possibleLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-4/+4
I attempted to make index_state->cache[] a "const struct cache_entry **" to find out how existing entries in index are modified and where. The question I have is what do we do if we really need to keep track of on-disk changes in the index. The result is - diff-lib.c: setting CE_UPTODATE - name-hash.c: setting CE_HASHED - preload-index.c, read-cache.c, unpack-trees.c and builtin/update-index: obvious - entry.c: write_entry() may refresh the checked out entry via fill_stat_cache_info(). This causes "non-const struct cache_entry *" in builtin/apply.c, builtin/checkout-index.c and builtin/checkout.c - builtin/ls-files.c: --with-tree changes stagemask and may set CE_UPDATE Of these, write_entry() and its call sites are probably most interesting because it modifies on-disk info. But this is stat info and can be retrieved via refresh, at least for porcelain commands. Other just uses ce_flags for local purposes. So, keeping track of "dirty" entries is just a matter of setting a flag in index modification functions exposed by read-cache.c. Except unpack-trees, the rest of the code base does not do anything funny behind read-cache's back. The actual patch is less valueable than the summary above. But if anyone wants to re-identify the above sites. Applying this patch, then this: diff --git a/cache.h b/cache.h index 430d021..1692891 100644 --- a/cache.h +++ b/cache.h @@ -267,7 +267,7 @@ static inline unsigned int canon_mode(unsigned int mode) #define cache_entry_size(len) (offsetof(struct cache_entry,name) + (len) + 1) struct index_state { - struct cache_entry **cache; + const struct cache_entry **cache; unsigned int version; unsigned int cache_nr, cache_alloc, cache_changed; struct string_list *resolve_undo; will help quickly identify them without bogus warnings.

2013-04-21checkout: Use remote refspecs when DWIMming tracking branchesLibravatar Johan Herland1-20/+22
The DWIM mode of checkout allows you to run "git checkout foo" when there is no existing local ref or path called "foo", and there is exactly _one_ remote with a remote-tracking branch called "foo". Git will automatically create a new local branch called "foo" using the remote-tracking "foo" as its starting point and configured upstream. For example, consider the following unconventional (but perfectly valid) remote setup: [remote "origin"] fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* [remote "frotz"] fetch = refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/* Case 1: Assume both "origin" and "frotz" have remote-tracking branches called "foo", at "refs/remotes/origin/foo" and "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo" respectively. In this case "git checkout foo" should fail, because there is more than one remote with a "foo" branch. Case 2: Assume only "frotz" have a remote-tracking branch called "foo". In this case "git checkout foo" should succeed, and create a local branch "foo" from "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo", using remote branch "foo" from "frotz" as its upstream. The current code hardcodes the assumption that all remote-tracking branches must match the "refs/remotes/$remote/*" pattern (which is true for remotes with "conventional" refspecs, but not true for the "frotz" remote above). When running "git checkout foo", the current code looks for exactly one ref matching "refs/remotes/*/foo", hence in the above example, it fails to find "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo", which causes it to fail both case #1 and #2. The better way to handle the above example is to actually study the fetch refspecs to deduce the candidate remote-tracking branches for "foo"; i.e. assume "foo" is a remote branch being fetched, and then map "refs/heads/foo" through the refspecs in order to get the corresponding remote-tracking branches "refs/remotes/origin/foo" and "refs/remotes/frotz/nitfol/foo". Finally we check which of these happens to exist in the local repo, and if there is exactly one, we have an unambiguous match for "git checkout foo", and may proceed. This fixes most of the failing tests introduced in the previous patch. Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-03-27checkout: avoid unnecessary match_pathspec callsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-7/+36
In checkout_paths() we do this - for all updated items, call match_pathspec - for all items, call match_pathspec (inside unmerge_cache) - for all items, call match_pathspec (for showing "path .. is unmerged) - for updated items, call match_pathspec and update paths That's a lot of duplicate match_pathspec(s) and the function is not exactly cheap to be called so many times, especially on large indexes. This patch makes it call match_pathspec once per updated index entry, save the result in ce_flags and reuse the results in the following loops. The changes in 0a1283b (checkout $tree $path: do not clobber local changes in $path not in $tree - 2011-09-30) limit the affected paths to ones we read from $tree. We do not do anything to other modified entries in this case, so the "for all items" above could be modified to "for all updated items". But.. The command's behavior now is modified slightly: unmerged entries that match $path, but not updated by $tree, are now NOT touched. Although this should be considered a bug fix, not a regression. A new test is added for this change. And while at there, free ps_matched after use. The following command is tested on webkit, 215k entries. The pattern is chosen mainly to make match_pathspec sweat: git checkout -- "*[a-zA-Z]*[a-zA-Z]*[a-zA-Z]*" before after real 0m3.493s 0m2.737s user 0m2.239s 0m1.586s sys 0m1.252s 0m1.151s Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-11-15checkout: print a message when switching unborn branchesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
When we switch to a new branch using checkout, we usually output a message indicating what happened. However, when we switch from an unborn branch to a new branch, we do not print anything, which may leave the user wondering what happened. The reason is that the unborn branch is a special case (see abe1998), and does not follow the usual switch_branches code path.

2012-09-11checkout: reorder option handlingLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-77/+112
checkout operates in three different modes. On top of that it tries to be smart by guessing the branch name for switching. This results in messy option handling code. This patch reorders it so that - cmd_checkout() is responsible for parsing, preparing input and determining mode - Code of each mode is in checkout_paths() and checkout_branch(), where sanity checks are performed Another slight improvement is always print branch name (or commit name) when printing errors related ot them.

2012-07-25checkout: don't confuse ref and object flagsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When we are leaving a detached HEAD, we do a revision traversal to check whether we are orphaning any commits, marking the commit we're leaving as the start of the traversal, and all existing refs as uninteresting. Prior to commit 468224e5, we did so by calling for_each_ref, and feeding each resulting refname to setup_revisions. Commit 468224e5 refactored this to simply mark the pending objects, saving an extra lookup. However, it confused the "flags" parameter to the each_ref_fn clalback, which is about the flags we found while looking up the ref with the object flag. Because REF_ISSYMREF ("this ref is a symbolic ref, e.g. refs/remotes/origin/HEAD") happens to be the same bit pattern as SEEN ("we have picked this object up from the pending list and moved it to revs.commits list"), we incorrectly reported that a commit previously at the detached HEAD will become unreachable if the only ref that can reach the commit happens to be pointed at by a symbolic ref.

This will both give us a tiny bit of a performance enhancement when working with long pathnames and is a refactoring for more readability of the code. It enhances readability, by making it more clear what is a flag, and where the length is stored and make it clear which functions use stages in comparisions and which only use the length. It also makes CE_NAMEMASK private, so that users don't mistakenly write the name length in the flags.

In abe1998 ("git checkout -b: allow switching out of an unborn branch"), a code-path overly-optimisticly assumed that a branch-name was specified. This is not always the case, and as a result a NULL-pointer was attempted printed to .git/HEAD. This could lead to at least two different failure modes: 1) vsnprintf formated the NULL-string as something useful (e.g "(null)") 2) vsnprintf crashed Neither were very convenient for formatting a new HEAD-reference.

Running "git checkout -b another" immediately after "git init" when you do not even have a commit on 'master' fails with: $ git checkout -b another fatal: You are on a branch yet to be born This is unnecessary, if we redefine "git checkout -b $name" that does not take any $start_point (which has to be a commit) as "I want to check out a new branch $name from the state I am in".
