2018-06-11refspec: s/refspec_item_init/&_or_die/gLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-1/+1
Rename the refspec_item_init() function introduced in 6d4c057859 ("refspec: introduce struct refspec", 2018-05-16) to refspec_item_init_or_die(). This follows the convention of other *_or_die() functions, and is done in preparation for making it a wrapper for a non-fatal variant.

2018-05-06Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() onesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55 (setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12). The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch (cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs. Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop.

2018-01-03clone: do not clean up directories we didn't createLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+16
Once upon a time, git-clone would refuse to write into a directory that it did not itself create. The cleanup routines for a failed clone could therefore just remove the git and worktree dirs completely. In 55892d2398 (Allow cloning to an existing empty directory, 2009-01-11), we learned to write into an existing directory. Which means that doing: mkdir foo git clone will-fail foo ends up deleting foo. This isn't a huge catastrophe, since by definition foo must be empty. But it's somewhat confusing; we should leave the filesystem as we found it. Because we know that the only directory we'll write into is an empty one, we can handle this case by just passing the KEEP_TOPLEVEL flag to our recursive delete (if we could write into populated directories, we'd have to keep track of what we wrote and what we did not, which would be much harder). Note that we need to handle the work-tree and git-dir separately, though, as only one might exist (and the new tests in t5600 cover all cases).

2018-01-03clone: factor out dir_exists() helperLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+8
Two parts of git-clone's setup logic check whether a directory exists, and they both call stat directly with the same scratch "struct stat" buffer. Let's pull that into a helper, which has a few advantages: - it makes the purpose of the stat calls more obvious - it makes it clear that we don't care about the information in "buf" remaining valid - if we later decide to make the check more robust (e.g., complaining about non-directories), we can do it in one place Note that we could just use file_exists() for this, which has identical code. But we specifically care about directories, so this future-proofs us against that function later getting more picky about seeing actual files.

2017-12-14clone, fetch: remove redundant transport checkLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-3/+0
Prior to commit a2d725b7bdf7 ("Use an external program to implement fetching with curl", 2009-08-05), if Git was compiled with NO_CURL, the get_refs_list and fetch methods in struct transport might not be populated, hence the checks in clone and fetch. After that commit, all transports populate get_refs_list and fetch, making the checks in clone and fetch redundant. Remove those checks.

2017-12-11clone: support 'clone --shared' from a worktreeLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-1/+2
When worktree functionality was originally implemented, the possibility of 'clone --local' from within a worktree was overlooked, with the result that the location of the "objects" directory of the source repository was computed incorrectly, thus the objects could not be copied or hard-linked by the clone. This shortcoming was addressed by 744e469755 (clone: allow --local from a linked checkout, 2015-09-28). However, the related case of 'clone --shared' (despite being handled only a few lines away from the 'clone --local' case) was not fixed by 744e469755, with a similar result of the "objects" directory location being incorrectly computed for insertion into the 'alternates' file.

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>

"what URL do we want to update this submodule?" and "are we interested in this submodule?" are split into two distinct concepts, and then the way used to express the latter got extended, paving a way to make it easier to manage a project with many submodules and make it possible to later extend use of multiple worktrees for a project with submodules. * bw/submodule-is-active: submodule add: respect submodule.active and submodule.<name>.active submodule--helper init: set submodule.<name>.active clone: teach --recurse-submodules to optionally take a pathspec submodule init: initialize active submodules submodule: decouple url and submodule interest submodule--helper clone: check for configured submodules using helper submodule sync: use submodule--helper is-active submodule sync: skip work for inactive submodules submodule status: use submodule--helper is-active submodule--helper: add is-active subcommand
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
