2017-06-30hashmap.h: compare function has access to a data fieldLibravatar Stefan Beller1-9/+15
When using the hashmap a common need is to have access to caller provided data in the compare function. A couple of times we abuse the keydata field to pass in the data needed. This happens for example in patch-ids.c. This patch changes the function signature of the compare function to have one more void pointer available. The pointer given for each invocation of the compare function must be defined in the init function of the hashmap and is just passed through. Documentation of this new feature is deferred to a later patch. This is a rather mechanical conversion, just adding the new pass-through parameter. However while at it improve the naming of the fields of all compare functions used by hashmaps by ensuring unused parameters are prefixed with 'unused_' and naming the parameters what they are (instead of 'unused' make it 'unused_keydata').

2017-06-24Merge branch 'bw/config-h'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
Fix configuration codepath to pay proper attention to commondir that is used in multi-worktree situation, and isolate config API into its own header file. * bw/config-h: config: don't implicitly use gitdir or commondir config: respect commondir setup: teach discover_git_directory to respect the commondir config: don't include config.h by default config: remove git_config_iter config: create config.h
2017-06-15config: don't include config.h by defaultLibravatar Brandon Williams1-0/+1
Stop including config.h by default in cache.h. Instead only include config.h in those files which require use of the config system. Signed-off-by: Brandon Williams <bmwill@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-05-08difftool: address a couple of resource/memory leaksLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-10/+23
This change plugs a couple of memory leaks and makes sure that the file descriptor is closed in run_dir_diff(). Spotted by Coverity. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-04-13difftool: fix use-after-freeLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+5
The left and right base directories were pointed to the buf field of two strbufs, which were subject to change. A contrived test case shows the problem where a file with a long enough name to force the strbuf to grow is up-to-date (hence the code path is used where the work tree's version of the file is reused), and then a file that is not up-to-date needs to be written (hence the code path is used where checkout_entry() uses the previously recorded base_dir that is invalid by now). Let's just copy the base_dir strings for use with checkout_entry(), never touch them until the end, and release them then. This is an easily verifiable fix (as opposed to the next-obvious alternative: to re-set base_dir after every loop iteration).

2017-03-30difftool: avoid strcpyLibravatar Jeff King1-16/+15
In order to checkout files, difftool reads "diff --raw" output and feeds the names to checkout_entry(). That function requires us to have a "struct cache_entry". And because that struct uses a FLEX_ARRAY for the name field, we have to actually copy in our new name. The current code allocates a single re-usable cache_entry that can hold a name up to PATH_MAX, and then copies filenames into it using strcpy(). But there's no guarantee that incoming names are smaller than PATH_MAX. They've come from "diff --raw" output which might be diffing between two trees (and hence we'd be subject to the PATH_MAX of some other system, or even none at all if they were created directly via "update-index"). We can fix this by using make_cache_entry() to create a correctly-sized cache_entry for each name. This incurs an extra allocation per file, but this is negligible compared to actually writing out the file contents. To make this simpler, we can push this procedure into a new helper function. Note that we can also get rid of the "len" variables for src_path and dst_path (and in fact we must, as the compiler complains that they are unused).

2017-03-15difftool: handle modified symlinks in dir-diff modeLibravatar David Aguilar1-5/+46
Detect the null object ID for symlinks in dir-diff so that difftool can detect when symlinks are modified in the worktree. Previously, a null symlink object ID would crash difftool. Handle null object IDs as unknown content that must be read from the worktree.

2017-01-25difftool: hack around -Wzero-length-format warningLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Building with "gcc -Wall" will complain that the format in: warning("") is empty. Which is true, but the warning is over-eager. We are calling the function for its side effect of printing "warning:", even with an empty string. Our DEVELOPER Makefile knob disables the warning, but not everybody uses it. Let's silence the warning in the code so that nobody reports it or tries to "fix" it. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-01-19difftool: implement the functionality in the builtinLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+671
This patch gives life to the skeleton added in the previous patch. The motivation for converting the difftool is that Perl scripts are not at all native on Windows, and that `git difftool` therefore is pretty slow on that platform, when there is no good reason for it to be slow. In addition, Perl does not really have access to Git's internals. That means that any script will always have to jump through unnecessary hoops, and it will often need to perform unnecessary work (e.g. when reading the entire config every time `git config` is called to query a single config value). The current version of the builtin difftool does not, however, make full use of the internals but instead chooses to spawn a couple of Git processes, still, to make for an easier conversion. There remains a lot of room for improvement, left later. Note: to play it safe, the original difftool is still called unless the config setting difftool.useBuiltin is set to true. The reason: this new, experimental, builtin difftool was shipped as part of Git for Windows v2.11.0, to allow for easier large-scale testing, but of course as an opt-in feature. The speedup is actually more noticable on Linux than on Windows: a quick test shows that t7800-difftool.sh runs in (2.183s/0.052s/0.108s) (real/user/sys) in a Linux VM, down from (6.529s/3.112s/0.644s), while on Windows, it is (36.064s/2.730s/7.194s), down from (47.637s/2.407s/6.863s). The culprit is most likely the overhead incurred from *still* having to shell out to mergetool-lib.sh and difftool--helper.sh. Still, it is an improvement.

2017-01-17difftool: add a skeleton for the upcoming builtinLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+63
This adds a builtin difftool that still falls back to the legacy Perl version, which has been renamed to `legacy-difftool`. The idea is that the new, experimental, builtin difftool immediately hands off to the legacy difftool for now, unless the config variable difftool.useBuiltin is set to true. This feature flag will be used in the upcoming Git for Windows v2.11.0 release, to allow early testers to opt-in to use the builtin difftool and flesh out any bugs.
