2017-03-30avoid using fixed PATH_MAX buffers for refsLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+2
Many functions which handle refs use a PATH_MAX-sized buffer to do so. This is mostly reasonable as we have to write loose refs into the filesystem, and at least on Linux the 4K PATH_MAX is big enough that nobody would care. But: 1. The static PATH_MAX is not always the filesystem limit. 2. On other platforms, PATH_MAX may be much smaller. 3. As we move to alternate ref storage, we won't be bound by filesystem limits. Let's convert these to heap buffers so we don't have to worry about truncation or size limits. We may want to eventually constrain ref lengths for sanity and to prevent malicious names, but we should do so consistently across all platforms, and in a central place (like the ref code).

2017-03-02checkout: restrict @-expansions when finding branchLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When we parse "git checkout $NAME", we try to interpret $NAME as a local branch-name. If it is, then we point HEAD to that branch. Otherwise, we detach the HEAD at whatever commit $NAME points to. We do the interpretation by calling strbuf_branchname(), and then blindly sticking "refs/heads/" on the front. This leads to nonsense results when expansions like "@{upstream}" or "@" point to something besides a local branch. We end up with a local branch name like "refs/heads/origin/master" or "refs/heads/HEAD". Normally this has no user-visible effect because those branches don't exist, and so we fallback to feeding the result to get_sha1(), which resolves them correctly. But as the new test in t3204 shows, there are corner cases where the effect is observable, and we check out the wrong local branch rather than detaching to the correct one.

2017-03-02interpret_branch_name: allow callers to restrict expansionsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like @{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and "@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/"). This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a branch name in refs/heads/. When we expand to a ref outside that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is nonsense). Callers can't know from the returned string how the expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that the caller can generate precise error messages ("I understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local name"). However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in, and none of the callers give more precise error messages than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which should be sufficient). The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter, as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name() through it. We can break the callers down into two groups: 1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work without restrictions. This includes merge_name(), the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(), and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers dwim_ref(). 2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this patch, and will address them individually in follow-on patches.

2017-02-03Merge branch 'cw/log-updates-for-all-refs-really'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+7
The "core.logAllRefUpdates" that used to be boolean has been enhanced to take 'always' as well, to record ref updates to refs other than the ones that are expected to be updated (i.e. branches, remote-tracking branches and notes). * cw/log-updates-for-all-refs-really: doc: add note about ignoring '--no-create-reflog' update-ref: add test cases for bare repository refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = always config: add markup to core.logAllRefUpdates doc
2017-01-31refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = alwaysLibravatar Cornelius Weig1-4/+7
When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old history immediately). However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than the performance implications of keeping the log around. This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

2016-12-07hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
Callers of the hold_locked_index() function pass 0 when they want to prepare to write a new version of the index file without wishing to die or emit an error message when the request fails (e.g. somebody else already held the lock), and pass 1 when they want the call to die upon failure. This option is called LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR by the underlying lockfile API, and the hold_locked_index() function translates the paramter to LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR when calling the hold_lock_file_for_update(). Replace these hardcoded '1' with LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR and stop translating. Callers other than the ones that are replaced with this change pass '0' to the function; no behaviour change is intended with this patch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> --- Among the callers of hold_locked_index() that passes 0: - diff.c::refresh_index_quietly() at the end of "git diff" is an opportunistic update; it leaks the lockfile structure but it is just before the program exits and nobody should care. - builtin/describe.c::cmd_describe(), builtin/commit.c::cmd_status(), sequencer.c::read_and_refresh_cache() are all opportunistic updates and they are OK. - builtin/update-index.c::cmd_update_index() takes a lock upfront but we may end up not needing to update the index (i.e. the entries may be fully up-to-date), in which case we do not need to issue an error upon failure to acquire the lock. We do diagnose and die if we indeed need to update, so it is OK. - wt-status.c::require_clean_work_tree() IS BUGGY. It asks silence, does not check the returned value. Compare with callsites like cmd_describe() and cmd_status() to notice that it is wrong to call update_index_if_able() unconditionally.

2016-08-01merge_trees(): ensure that the callers release output bufferLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+1
The recursive merge machinery accumulates its output in an output buffer, to be flushed at the end of merge_recursive(). At this point, we forgot to release the output buffer. When calling merge_trees() (i.e. the non-recursive part of the recursive merge) directly, the output buffer is never flushed because the caller may be merge_recursive() which wants to flush the output itself. For the same reason, merge_trees() cannot release the output buffer: it may still be needed. Forgetting to release the output buffer did not matter much when running git-checkout, or git-merge-recursive, because we exited after the operation anyway. Ever since cherry-pick learned to pick a commit range, however, this memory leak had the potential of becoming a problem.

2016-07-26prepare the builtins for a libified merge_recursive()Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+3
Previously, callers of merge_trees() or merge_recursive() expected that code to die() with an error message. This used to be okay because we called those commands from scripts, and had a chance to print out a message in case the command failed fatally (read: with exit code 128). As scripting incurs its own set of problems (portability, speed, idiosyncrasies of different shells, limited data structures leading to inefficient code), we are converting more and more of these scripts into builtins, using library functions directly. We already tried to use merge_recursive() directly in the builtin git-am, for example. Unfortunately, we had to roll it back temporarily because some of the code in merge-recursive.c still deemed it okay to call die(), when the builtin am code really wanted to print out a useful advice after the merge failed fatally. In the next commits, we want to fix that. The code touched by this commit expected merge_trees() to die() with some useful message when there is an error condition, but merge_trees() is going to be improved by converting all die() calls to return error() instead (i.e. return value -1 after printing out the message as before), so that the caller can react more flexibly. This is a step to prepare for the version of merge_trees() that no longer dies, even if we just imitate the previous behavior by calling exit(128): this is what callers of e.g. `git merge` have come to expect. Note that the callers of the sequencer (revert and cherry-pick) already fail fast even for the return value -1; The only difference is that they now get a chance to say "<command> failed". A caller of merge_trees() might want handle error messages themselves (or even suppress them). As this patch is already complex enough, we leave that change for a later patch.

2016-04-22worktree.c: check whether branch is rebased in another worktreeLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
This function find_shared_symref() is used in a couple places: 1) in builtin/branch.c: it's used to detect if a branch is checked out elsewhere and refuse to delete the branch. 2) in builtin/notes.c: it's used to detect if a note is being merged in another worktree 3) in branch.c, the function die_if_checked_out() is actually used by "git checkout" and "git worktree add" to see if a branch is already checked out elsewhere and refuse the operation. In cases 1 and 3, if a rebase is ongoing, "HEAD" will be in detached mode, find_shared_symref() fails to detect it and declares "no branch is checked out here", which is not really what we want. This patch tightens the test. If the given symref is "HEAD", we try to detect if rebase is ongoing. If so return the branch being rebased. This makes checkout and branch delete operations safer because you can't checkout a branch being rebased in another place, or delete it. Special case for checkout. If the current branch is being rebased, git-rebase.sh may use "git checkout" to abort and return back to the original branch. The updated test in find_shared_symref() will prevent that and "git rebase --abort" will fail as a result. find_shared_symref() and die_if_checked_out() have to learn a new option ignore_current_worktree to loosen the test a bit.

2016-02-10check_filename: tighten dwim-wildcard ambiguityLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
When specifying both revisions and pathnames, we allow "<rev> -- <pathspec>" to be spelled without the "--" as long as it is not ambiguous. The original logic was something like: 1. Resolve each item with get_sha1(). If successful, we know it can be a <rev>. Verify that it _isn't_ a filename, using verify_non_filename(), and complain of ambiguity otherwise. 2. If get_sha1() didn't succeed, make sure that it _is_ a file, using verify_filename(). If not, complain that it is neither a <rev> nor a <pathspec>. Both verify_filename() and verify_non_filename() rely on check_filename(), which definitely said "yes, this is a file" or "no, it is not" using lstat(). Commit 28fcc0b (pathspec: avoid the need of "--" when wildcard is used, 2015-05-02) introduced a convenience feature: check_filename() will consider anything with wildcard meta-characters as a possible filename, without even checking the filesystem. This works well for case 2. For such a wildcard, we would previously have died and said "it is neither". Post-28fcc0b, we assume it's a pathspec and proceed. But it makes some instances of case 1 worse. We may have an extended sha1 expression that contains meta-characters (e.g., "HEAD^{/foo.*bar}"), and we now complain that it's also a filename, due to the wildcard characters (even though that wildcard would not match anything in the filesystem). One solution would be to actually expand the pathname and see if it matches anything on the filesystem. But that's potentially expensive, and we do not have to be so rigorous for this DWIM magic (if you want rigor, use "--"). Instead, we can just use different rules for cases 1 and 2. When we know something is a rev, we will complain only if it meets a much higher standard for "this is also a file"; namely that it actually exists in the filesystem. Case 2 remains the same: we use the looser "it could be a filename" standard introduced by 28fcc0b. We can accomplish this by pulling the wildcard logic out of check_filename() and putting it into verify_filename(). Its partner verify_non_filename() does not need a change, since check_filename() goes back to implementing the "higher standard". Besides these two callers of check_filename(), there is one other: git-checkout does a similar DWIM itself. It hits this code path only after get_sha1() has returned failure, making it case 2, which gets the special wildcard treatment. Note that we drop the tests in t2019 in favor of a more complete set in t6133. t2019 was not the right place for them (it's about refname ambiguity, not dwim parsing ambiguity), and the second test explicitly checked for the opposite result of the case we are fixing here (which didn't really make any sense; as shown by the test_must_fail in the test, it would only serve to annoy people).

2016-02-10checkout: reorder check_filename conditionalLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
If we have a "--" flag, we should not be doing DWIM magic based on whether arguments can be filenames. Reorder the conditional to avoid the check_filename() call entirely in this case. The outcome is the same, but the short-circuit makes the dependency more clear. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-01-12checkout,clone: check return value of create_symrefLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
It's unlikely that we would fail to create or update a symbolic ref (especially HEAD), but if we do, we should notice and complain. Note that there's no need to give more details in our error message; create_symref will already have done so. While we're here, let's also fix a minor memory leak in clone.

2015-11-20Remove get_object_hash.Libravatar brian m. carlson1-5/+5
Convert all instances of get_object_hash to use an appropriate reference to the hash member of the oid member of struct object. This provides no functional change, as it is essentially a macro substitution. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2015-11-20Convert struct object to object_idLibravatar brian m. carlson1-6/+6
struct object is one of the major data structures dealing with object IDs. Convert it to use struct object_id instead of an unsigned char array. Convert get_object_hash to refer to the new member as well. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>
2015-11-20Add several uses of get_object_hash.Libravatar brian m. carlson1-5/+5
Convert most instances where the sha1 member of struct object is dereferenced to use get_object_hash. Most instances that are passed to functions that have versions taking struct object_id, such as get_sha1_hex/get_oid_hex, or instances that can be trivially converted to use struct object_id instead, are not converted.

2015-11-01checkout: add --progress optionLibravatar Edmundo Carmona Antoranz1-2/+12
Under normal circumstances, and like other git commands, git checkout will write progress info to stderr if attached to a terminal. This option allows progress to be forced even if not using a terminal. Also, progress can be skipped if using option --no-progress.

2015-08-20ps_matched: xcalloc() takes nmemb and then element sizeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Even though multiplication is commutative, the order of arguments should be xcalloc(nmemb, size). ps_matched is an array of 1-byte element whose size is the same as the number of pathspec elements. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
