2017-05-08Convert lookup_commit* to struct object_idLibravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+1
Convert lookup_commit, lookup_commit_or_die, lookup_commit_reference, and lookup_commit_reference_gently to take struct object_id arguments. Introduce a temporary in parse_object buffer in order to convert this function. This is required since in order to convert parse_object and parse_object_buffer, lookup_commit_reference_gently and lookup_commit_or_die would need to be converted. Not introducing a temporary would therefore require that lookup_commit_or_die take a struct object_id *, but lookup_commit would take unsigned char *, leaving a confusing and hard-to-use interface. parse_object_buffer will lose this temporary in a later patch.

2017-05-02clone: handle empty config values in -cLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-1/+3
"git clone --config" uses the following incantation to add an item to a config file, instead of replacing an existing value: git_config_set_multivar_gently(key, value, "^$", 0) As long as no existing value matches the regex ^$, that works as intended and adds to the config. When a value is empty, though, it replaces the existing value. Noticed while trying to set credential.helper during a clone to use a specific helper without inheriting from ~/.gitconfig and /etc/gitconfig. That is, I ran git clone -c credential.helper= \ -c credential.helper=myhelper \ https://example.com/repo intending to produce the configuration [credential] helper = helper = myhelper Without this patch, the 'helper =' line is not included and the credential helper from /etc/gitconfig gets used.

2017-05-01clone: add a --no-tags option to clone without tagsLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+11
Add a --no-tags option to clone without fetching any tags. Without this change there's no easy way to clone a repository without also fetching its tags. When supplying --single-branch the primary remote branch will be cloned, but in addition tags will be followed & retrieved. Now --no-tags can be added --single-branch to clone a repository without tags, and which only tracks a single upstream branch. This option works without --single-branch as well, and will do a normal clone but not fetch any tags. Many git commands pay some fixed overhead as a function of the number of references. E.g. creating ~40k tags in linux.git will cause a command like `git log -1 >/dev/null` to run in over a second instead of in a matter of milliseconds, in addition numerous other things will slow down, e.g. "git log <TAB>" with the bash completion will slowly show ~40k references instead of 1. The user might want to avoid all of that overhead to simply use a repository like that to browse the "master" branch, or something like a CI tool might want to keep that one branch up-to-date without caring about any other references. Without this change the only way of accomplishing this was either by manually tweaking the config in a fresh repository: git init git && cat >git/.git/config <<EOF && [remote "origin"] url = git@github.com:git/git.git tagOpt = --no-tags fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master [branch "master"] remote = origin merge = refs/heads/master EOF cd git && git pull Which requires hardcoding the "master" name, which may not be the main --single-branch would have retrieved, or alternatively by setting tagOpt=--no-tags right after cloning & deleting any existing tags: git clone --single-branch git@github.com:git/git.git && cd git && git config remote.origin.tagOpt --no-tags && git tag -l | xargs git tag -d Which of course was also subtly buggy if --branch was pointed at a tag, leaving the user in a detached head: git clone --single-branch --branch v2.12.0 git@github.com:git/git.git && cd git && git config remote.origin.tagOpt --no-tags && git tag -l | xargs git tag -d Now all this complexity becomes the much simpler: git clone --single-branch --no-tags git@github.com:git/git.git Or in the case of cloning a single tag "branch": git clone --single-branch --branch v2.12.0 --no-tags git@github.com:git/git.git Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-03-18clone: teach --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspecLibravatar Brandon Williams1-7/+43
Teach clone --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspec argument which describes which submodules should be recursively initialized and cloned. If no pathspec is provided, --recurse-submodules will recursively initialize and clone all submodules by using a default pathspec of ".". In order to construct more complex pathspecs, --recurse-submodules can be given multiple times. This also configures the 'submodule.active' configuration option to be the given pathspec, such that any future invocation of `git submodule update` will keep up with the pathspec. Additionally the switch '--recurse' is removed from the Documentation as well as marked hidden in the options array, to streamline the options for submodules. A simple '--recurse' doesn't convey what is being recursed, e.g. it could mean directories or trees (c.f. ls-tree) In a lot of other commands we already have '--recurse-submodules' to mean recursing into submodules, so advertise this spelling here as the genuine option.

Git 2.11 had a minor regression in "merge --ff-only" that competed with another process that simultanously attempted to update the index. We used to explain what went wrong with an error message, but the new code silently failed. The error message has been resurrected. * jc/lock-report-on-error: lockfile: LOCK_REPORT_ON_ERROR hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update() wt-status: implement opportunisitc index update correctly
2016-12-07hold_locked_index(): align error handling with hold_lockfile_for_update()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
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.

2016-10-05clone: detect errors in normalize_path_copyLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+5
When we are copying the alternates from the source repository, if we find a relative path that is too deep for the source (e.g., "../../../objects" from "/repo.git/objects"), then normalize_path_copy will report an error and leave trash in the buffer, which we will add to our new alternates file. Instead, let's detect the error, print a warning, and skip copying that alternate. There's no need to die. The relative path is probably just broken cruft in the source repo. If it turns out to have been important for accessing some objects, we rely on other parts of the clone to detect that, just as they would with a missing object in the source repo itself (though note that clones with "-s" are inherently local, which may do fewer object-quality checks in the first place).

2016-09-22clone: pass --progress decision to recursive submodulesLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+14
When cloning with "--recursive", we'd generally expect submodules to show progress reports if the main clone did, too. In older versions of git, this mostly worked out of the box. Since we show progress by default when stderr is a tty, and since the child clones inherit the parent stderr, then both processes would come to the same decision by default. If the parent clone was asked for "--quiet", we passed down "--quiet" to the child. However, if stderr was not a tty and the user specified "--progress", we did not propagate this to the child. That's a minor bug, but things got much worse when we switched recently to submodule--helper's update_clone command. With that change, the stderr of the child clones are always connected to a pipe, and we never output progress at all. This patch teaches git-submodule and git-submodule--helper how to pass down an explicit "--progress" flag when cloning. The clone command then decides to propagate that flag based on the cloning decision made earlier (which takes into account isatty(2) of the parent process, existing --progress or --quiet flags, etc). Since the child processes always run without a tty on stderr, we don't have to worry about passing an explicit "--no-progress"; it's the default for them. This fixes the recent loss of progress during recursive clones. And as a bonus, it makes: git clone --recursive --progress ... 2>&1 | cat work by triggering progress explicitly in the children.

2016-08-17clone: recursive and reference option triggers submodule alternatesLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+19
When `--recursive` and `--reference` is given, it is reasonable to expect that the submodules are created with references to the submodules of the given alternate for the superproject. An initial attempt to do this was presented to the mailing list, which used flags that are passed around ("--super-reference") that instructed the submodule clone to look for a reference in the submodules of the referenced superproject. This is not well thought out, as any further `submodule update` should also respect the initial setup. When a new submodule is added to the superproject and the alternate of the superproject does not know about that submodule yet, we rather error out informing the user instead of being unclear if we did or did not use a submodules alternate. To solve this problem introduce new options that store the configuration for what the user wanted originally.

2016-07-20check_everything_connected: use a struct with named optionsLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+5
The number of variants of check_everything_connected has grown over the years, so that the "real" function takes several possibly-zero, possibly-NULL arguments. We hid the complexity behind some wrapper functions, but this doesn't scale well when we want to add new options. If we add more wrapper variants to handle the new options, then we can get a combinatorial explosion when those options might be used together (right now nobody wants to use both "shallow" and "transport" together, so we get by with just a few wrappers). If instead we add new parameters to each function, each of which can have a default value, then callers who want the defaults end up with confusing invocations like: check_everything_connected(fn, 0, data, -1, 0, NULL); where it is unclear which parameter is which (and every caller needs updated when we add new options). Instead, let's add a struct to hold all of the optional parameters. This is a little more verbose for the callers (who have to declare the struct and fill it in), but it makes their code much easier to follow, because every option is named as it is set (and unused options do not have to be mentioned at all). Note that we could also stick the iteration function and its callback data into the option struct, too. But since those are required for each call, by avoiding doing so, we can let very simple callers just pass "NULL" for the options and not worry about the struct at all. While we're touching each site, let's also rename the function to check_connected(). The existing name was quite long, and not all of the wrappers even used the full name.

2016-06-13use string_list initializer consistentlyLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
There are two types of string_lists: those that own the string memory, and those that don't. You can tell the difference by the strdup_strings flag, and one should use either STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, or STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP as an initializer. Historically, the normal all-zeros initialization has corresponded to the NODUP case. Many sites use no initializer at all, and that works as a shorthand for that case. But for a reader of the code, it can be hard to remember which is which. Let's be more explicit and actually have each site declare which type it means to use. This is a fairly mechanical conversion; I assumed each site was correct as-is, and just switched them all to NODUP.

2016-04-26clone: add `--shallow-submodules` flagLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+7
When creating a shallow clone of a repository with submodules, the depth argument does not influence the submodules, i.e. the submodules are done as non-shallow clones. It is unclear what the best default is for the depth of submodules of a shallow clone, so we need to have the possibility to do all kinds of combinations: * shallow super project with shallow submodules e.g. build bots starting always from scratch. They want to transmit the least amount of network data as well as using the least amount of space on their hard drive. * shallow super project with unshallow submodules e.g. The superproject is just there to track a collection of repositories and it is not important to have the relationship between the repositories intact. However the history of the individual submodules matter. * unshallow super project with shallow submodules e.g. The superproject is the actual project and the submodule is a library which is rarely touched. The new switch to select submodules to be shallow or unshallow supports all of these three cases. It is easy to transition from the first to the second case by just unshallowing the submodules (`git submodule foreach git fetch --unshallow`), but it is not possible to transition from the second to the first case (as we would have already transmitted the non shallow over the network). That is why we want to make the first case the default in case of a shallow super project. This leads to the inconvenience in the second case with the shallow super project and unshallow submodules, as you need to pass `--no-shallow-submodules`.

2016-04-06Merge branch 'sb/submodule-parallel-update'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+13
A major part of "git submodule update" has been ported to C to take advantage of the recently added framework to run download tasks in parallel. * sb/submodule-parallel-update: clone: allow an explicit argument for parallel submodule clones submodule update: expose parallelism to the user submodule helper: remove double 'fatal: ' prefix git submodule update: have a dedicated helper for cloning run_processes_parallel: rename parameters for the callbacks run_processes_parallel: treat output of children as byte array submodule update: direct error message to stderr fetching submodules: respect `submodule.fetchJobs` config option submodule-config: drop check against NULL submodule-config: keep update strategy around

2016-02-22config: rename git_config_set_or_die to git_config_setLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-4/+4
Rename git_config_set_or_die functions to git_config_set, leading to the new default behavior of dying whenever a configuration error occurs. By now all callers that shall die on error have been transitioned to the _or_die variants, thus making this patch a simple rename of the functions.

2016-02-22config: rename git_config_set to git_config_set_gentlyLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-1/+1
The desired default behavior for `git_config_set` is to die whenever an error occurs. Dying is the default for a lot of internal functions when failures occur and is in this case the right thing to do for most callers as otherwise we might run into inconsistent repositories without noticing. As some code may rely on the actual return values for `git_config_set` we still require the ability to invoke these functions without aborting. Rename the existing `git_config_set` functions to `git_config_set_gently` to keep them available for those callers.

2016-02-22clone: die on config error in cmd_cloneLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-4/+4
The clone command does not check for error codes returned by `git_config_set` functions. This may cause the user to end up with an inconsistent repository without any indication with what went wrong. Fix this problem by dying with an error message when we are unable to write the configuration files to disk.

2016-02-12connect & http: support -4 and -6 switches for remote operationsLibravatar Eric Wong1-0/+6
Sometimes it is necessary to force IPv4-only or IPv6-only operation on networks where name lookups may return a non-routable address and stall remote operations. The ssh(1) command has an equivalent switches which we may pass when we run them. There may be old ssh(1) implementations out there which do not support these switches; they should report the appropriate error in that case. rsync support is untouched for now since it is deprecated and scheduled to be removed.
