2013-08-24commit: search author pattern against mailmapLibravatar Antoine Pelisse1-1/+7
"git commit --author=$name" sets the author to one whose name matches the given string from existing commits, when $name is not in the "Name <e-mail>" format. However, it does not honor the mailmap to use the canonical name for the author found this way. Fix it by telling the logic to find a matching existing author to honor the mailmap, and use the name and email after applying the mailmap.

2013-08-05Remove deprecated OPTION_BOOLEAN for parsing argumentsLibravatar Stefan Beller1-6/+4
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.

2013-07-29commit: tweak empty cherry pick advice for sequencerLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+22
When we refuse to make an empty commit, we check whether we are in a cherry-pick in order to give better advice on how to proceed. We instruct the user to repeat the commit with "--allow-empty" to force the commit, or to use "git reset" to skip it and abort the cherry-pick. In the case of a single cherry-pick, the distinction between skipping and aborting is not important, as there is no more work to be done afterwards. When we are using the sequencer to cherry pick a series of commits, though, the instruction is confusing: does it skip this commit, or does it abort the rest of the cherry-pick? It does skip, after which the user can continue the cherry-pick. This is the right thing to be advising the user to do, but let's make it more clear what will happen, both by using the word "skip", and by mentioning that the rest of the sequence can be continued via "cherry-pick --continue" (whether we skip or take the commit).

2013-07-09Convert "struct cache_entry *" to "const ..." wherever possibleLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
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.

This is a pure code movement of the machinery for copying notes to rewritten objects. This code was located in builtin/notes.c for historical reasons. In order to make it available to builtin/commit.c it was declared in builtin.h. This was more of an accident of history than a concious design, and we now want to make this machinery more widely available. Hence, this patch moves the code into the new notes-utils.[hc] files which are included into libgit.a.

2013-02-19git-commit: only append a newline to -m mesg if necessaryLibravatar Brandon Casey1-1/+3
Currently, git will append two newlines to every message supplied via the -m switch. The purpose of this is to allow -m to be supplied multiple times and have each supplied string become a paragraph in the resulting commit message. Normally, this does not cause a problem since any trailing newlines will be removed by the cleanup operation. If cleanup=verbatim for example, then the trailing newlines will not be removed and will survive into the resulting commit message. Instead, let's ensure that the string supplied to -m is newline terminated, but only append a second newline when appending additional messages. Fixes the test in t7502.

2013-01-26logmsg_reencode: never return NULLLibravatar Jeff King1-12/+2
The logmsg_reencode function will return the reencoded commit buffer, or NULL if reencoding failed or no reencoding was necessary. Since every caller then ends up checking for NULL and just using the commit's original buffer, anyway, we can be a bit more helpful and just return that buffer when we would have returned NULL. Since the resulting string may or may not need to be freed, we introduce a logmsg_free, which checks whether the buffer came from the commit object or not (callers either implemented the same check already, or kept two separate pointers, one to mark the buffer to be used, and one for the to-be-freed string). Pushing this logic into logmsg_* simplifies the callers, and will let future patches lazily load the commit buffer in a single place.

2013-01-26commit: drop useless xstrdup of commit messageLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When git-commit is asked to reuse a commit message via "-c", we call read_commit_message, which looks up the commit and hands back either the re-encoded result, or a copy of the original. We make a copy in the latter case so that the ownership semantics of the return value are clear (in either case, it can be freed). However, since we return a "const char *", and since the resulting buffer's lifetime is the same as that of the whole program, we never bother to free it at all. Let's just drop the copy. That saves us a copy in the common case. While it does mean we leak in the re-encode case, it doesn't matter, since we are relying on program exit to free the memory anyway.

Create find_hook() function to determine if a given hook exists and is executable. If it is, the path to the script will be returned, otherwise NULL is returned. This encapsulates the tests that are used to check for the existence of a hook in one place, making it easier to modify those checks if that is found to be necessary. This also makes it simple for places that can use a hook to check if a hook exists before doing, possibly lengthy, setup work which would be pointless if no such hook is present. The returned value is left as a static value from get_pathname() rather than a duplicate because it is anticipated that the return value will either be used as a boolean, immediately added to an argv_array list which would result in it being duplicated at that point, or used to actually run the command without much intervening work. Callers which need to hold onto the returned value for a longer time are expected to duplicate the return value themselves.

2012-11-15ident: keep separate "explicit" flags for author and committerLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
We keep track of whether the user ident was given to us explicitly, or if we guessed at it from system parameters like username and hostname. However, we kept only a single variable. This covers the common cases (because the author and committer will usually come from the same explicit source), but can miss two cases: 1. GIT_COMMITTER_* is set explicitly, but we fallback for GIT_AUTHOR. We claim the ident is explicit, even though the author is not. 2. GIT_AUTHOR_* is set and we ask for author ident, but not committer ident. We will claim the ident is implicit, even though it is explicit. This patch uses two variables instead of one, updates both when we set the "fallback" values, and updates them individually when we read from the environment. Rather than keep user_ident_sufficiently_given as a compatibility wrapper, we update the only two callers to check the committer_ident, which matches their intent and what was happening already.

You can currently set the output format to --short or --porcelain. There is no --long, because we default to it already. However, you may want to override an alias that uses "--short" to get back to the default. This requires a little bit of refactoring, because currently we use STATUS_FORMAT_LONG internally to mean the same as "the user did not specify anything". By expanding the enum to include STATUS_FORMAT_NONE, we can distinguish between the implicit and explicit cases. This effects these conditions: 1. The user has asked for NUL termination. With NONE, we currently default to turning on the porcelain mode. With an explicit --long, we would in theory use NUL termination with the long mode, but it does not support it. So we can just complain and die. 2. When an output format is given to "git commit", we default to "--dry-run". This behavior would now kick in when "--long" is given, too.
