"git format-patch" uses a single rev_info instance and then exits.
Mark the structure with UNLEAK() macro to squelch leak sanitizer.
* jc/unleak-log:
format-patch: mark rev_info with UNLEAK
|
|
The comand uses a single instance of rev_info on stack, makes a
single revision traversal and exit. Mark the resources held by the
rev_info structure with UNLEAK().
We do not do this at lower level in revision.c or cmd_log_walk(), as
a new caller of the revision traversal API can make unbounded number
of rev_info during a single run, and UNLEAK() would not a be
suitable mechanism to deal with such a caller.

It's possible to specify --simplify-by-decoration but not --decorate. In
this case we do respect the simplification, but we don't actually show
any decorations. However, it works by lazy-loading the decorations when
needed; this is discussed in more detail in 0cc7380d88 (log-tree: call
load_ref_decorations() in get_name_decoration(), 2019-09-08).
This works for basic cases, but will fail to respect any --decorate-refs
option (or its variants). Those are handled only when cmd_log_init()
loads the ref decorations up front, which is only when --decorate is
specified explicitly (or as of the previous commit, when the userformat
asks for %d or similar).
We can solve this by making sure to load the decorations if we're going
to simplify using them but they're not otherwise going to be displayed.
The new test shows a simple case that fails without this patch. Note
that we expect two commits in the output: the one we asked for by
--decorate-refs, and the initial commit. The latter is just a quirk of
how --simplify-by-decoration works. Arguably it may be a bug, but it's
unrelated to this patch (which is just about the loading of the
decorations; you get the same behavior before this patch with an
explicit --decorate).

In order to show ref decorations, we first have to load them. If you
run:
git log --decorate
then git-log will recognize the option and load them up front via
cmd_log_init(). Likewise if log.decorate is set.
If you don't say --decorate explicitly, but do mention "%d" or "%D" in
the output format, like so:
git log --format=%d
then this also works, because we lazy-load the ref decorations. This has
been true since 3b3d443feb (add '%d' pretty format specifier to show
decoration, 2008-09-04), though the lazy-load was later moved into
log-tree.c.
But there's one problem: that lazy-load just uses the defaults; it
doesn't take into account any --decorate-refs options (or its exclude
variant, or their config). So this does not work:
git log --decorate-refs=whatever --format=%d
It will decorate using all refs, not just the specified ones. This has
been true since --decorate-refs was added in 65516f586b (log: add option
to choose which refs to decorate, 2017-11-21). Adding further confusion
is that it _may_ work because of the auto-decoration feature. If that's
in use (and it often is, as it's the default), then if the output is
going to stdout, we do enable decorations early (and so load them up
front, respecting the extra options). But otherwise we do not. So:
git log --decorate-refs=whatever --format=%d >some-file
would typically behave differently than it does when the output goes to
the pager or terminal!
The solution is simple: we should recognize in cmd_log_init() that we're
going to show decorations, and make sure we load them there. We already
check userformat_find_requirements(), so we can couple this with our
existing code there.
There are two new tests. The first shows off the actual fix. The second
makes sure that our fix doesn't cause us to stomp on an existing
--decorate option (see the new comment in the code, as well).

The `--no-walk` flag supports two modes: either it sorts the revisions
given as input input or it doesn't. This is reflected in a single
`no_walk` flag, which reflects one of the three states "walk", "don't
walk but without sorting" and "don't walk but with sorting".
Split up the flag into two separate bits, one indicating whether we
should walk or not and one indicating whether the input should be sorted
or not. This will allow us to more easily introduce a new flag
`--unsorted-input`, which only impacts the sorting bit.

If no --decorate option is given, we default to auto-decoration. And
when that kicks in, cmd_log_init_finish() will unconditionally load the
decoration refs.
However, if we are using a user-format that does not include "%d" or
"%D", we won't show the decorations at all, so we don't need to load
them. We can detect this case and auto-disable them by adding a new
field to our userformat_want helper. We can do this even when the user
explicitly asked for --decorate, because it can't affect the output at
all.
This patch consistently reduces the time to run "git log -1 --format=%H"
on my git.git clone (with ~2k refs) from 34ms to 7ms. On a much more
extreme real-world repository (with ~220k refs), it goes from 2.5s to
4ms.

format-patch: allow a non-integral version numbers
|
|
The `-v<n>` option of `format-patch` can give nothing but an
integral iteration number to patches in a series. Some people,
however, prefer to mark a new iteration with only a small fixup
with a non integral iteration number (e.g. an "oops, that was
wrong" fix-up patch for v4 iteration may be labeled as "v4.1").
Allow `format-patch` to take such a non-integral iteration
number.
`<n>` can be any string, such as '3.1' or '4rev2'. In the case
where it is a non-integral value, the "Range-diff" and "Interdiff"
headers will not include the previous version.

Simplify the signature of read_tree_recursive() to omit the "base",
"baselen" and "stage" arguments. No callers of it use these parameters
for anything anymore.
The last function to call read_tree_recursive() with a non-"" path was
read_tree_recursive() itself, but that was changed in
ffd31f661d5 (Reimplement read_tree_recursive() using
tree_entry_interesting(), 2011-03-25).
The last user of the "stage" parameter went away in the last commit,
and even that use was mere boilerplate.
So let's remove those and rename the read_tree_recursive() function to
just read_tree(). We had another read_tree() function that I've
refactored away in preceding commits, since all in-tree users read
trees recursively with a callback we can change the name to signify
that this is the norm.

Add a diff_free() function to free anything we may have allocated in
the "diff_options" struct, and the ability to make calling it a noop
by setting "no_free" in "diff_options".
This is required because when e.g. "git diff" is run we'll allocate
things in that struct, use the diff machinery once, and then exit.
But if we run e.g. "git log -p" we're going to re-use what we
allocated across multiple diff_flush() calls, and only want to free
things at the end.
We've thus ended up with features like the recently added "diff -I"[1]
where we'll leak memory. As it turns out it could have simply used the
pattern established in 6ea57703f6 (log: prepare log/log-tree to reuse
the diffopt.close_file attribute, 2016-06-22).
Manually adding more such flags to things log_tree_commit() every time
we need to allocate something would be tedious. Let's instead move
that fclose() code it to a new diff_free(), in anticipation of freeing
more things in that function in follow-up commits.
Some functions such as log_tree_commit() need an idiom of optionally
retaining a previous "no_free", as they may either free the memory
themselves, or their caller may do so. I'm keeping that idiom in
log_show_early() for good measure, even though I don't think it's
currently called in this manner. It also gets passed an existing
"struct rev_info", so future callers may want to set the "no_free"
flag.
This change is a bit hard to read because while the freeing pattern
we're introducing isn't unusual, the "file" member is a special
snowflake. We usually don't want to fclose() it. This is because
"file" is usually stdout, in which case we don't want to fclose()
it. We only want to opt-in to closing it when we e.g. open a file on
the filesystem. Thus the opt-in "close_file" flag.
So the API in general just needs a "no_free" flag to defer freeing,
but the "file" member still needs its "close_file" flag. This is made
more confusing because while refactoring this code we could replace
some "close_file=0" with "no_free=1", whereas others need to set both
flags.
This is because there were some cases where an existing "close_file=0"
meant "let's defer deallocation", and others where it meant "we don't
want to close this file handle at all".

Currently, when called with exactly two arguments, `git range-diff`
tests for a literal `..` in each of the two. Likewise, the argument
provided via `--range-diff` to `git format-patch` is checked in the same
manner.
However, `<commit>^!` is a perfectly valid commit range, equivalent to
`<commit>^..<commit>` according to the `SPECIFYING RANGES` section of
gitrevisions[7].
In preparation for allowing more sophisticated ways to specify commit
ranges, let's refactor the check into its own function.

Remove support for the magical "repo-abbrev" comment in .mailmap
files. This was added to .mailmap parsing in [1], as a generalized
feature of the git-shortlog Perl script added earlier in [2].
There was no documentation or tests for this feature, and I don't
think it's used in practice anymore.
What it did was to allow you to specify a single string to be
search-replaced with "/.../" in the .mailmap file. E.g. for
linux.git's current .mailmap:
git archive --remote=git@gitlab.com:linux-kernel/linux.git \
HEAD -- .mailmap | grep -a repo-abbrev
# repo-abbrev: /pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/
Then when running e.g.:
git shortlog --merges --author=Linus -1 v5.10-rc7..v5.10 | grep Merge
We'd emit (the [...] is mine):
Merge tag [...]git://git.kernel.org/.../tip/tip
But will now emit:
Merge tag [...]git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
I think at this point this is just a historical artifact we can get
rid of. It was initially meant for Linus's own use when we integrated
the Perl script[2], but since then it seems he's stopped using it.
Digging through Linus's release announcements on the LKML[3] the last
release I can find that made use of this output is Linux 2.6.25-rc6
back in March 2008[4]. Later on Linus started using --no-merges[5],
and nowadays seems to prefer some custom not-quite-shortlog format of
merges from lieutenants[6].
You will still see it on linux.git if you run "git shortlog" manually
yourself with --merges, with this removed you can still get the same
output with:
git log --pretty=fuller v5.10-rc7..v5.10 |
sed 's!/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/!/.../!g' |
git shortlog
Arguably we should do the same for the search-replacing of "[PATCH]"
at the beginning with "". That seems to be another relic of a bygone
era when linux.git patches would have their E-Mail subject lines
applied as-is by "git am" or whatever. But we documented that feature
in "git-shortlog(1)", and it seems more widely applicable than
something purely kernel-specific.

`init_grep_defaults()` fills a `static struct grep_opt grep_defaults`.
This struct is then used by `grep_init()` as a blueprint for other such
structs. Notably, `grep_init()` takes a `struct repo *` and assigns it
into the target struct.
As a result, it is unnecessary for us to take a `struct repo *` in
`init_grep_defaults()` as well. We assign it into the default struct and
never look at it again. And in light of how we return early if we have
already set up the default struct, it's not just unnecessary, but is
also a bit confusing: If we are called twice and with different repos,
is it a bug or a feature that we ignore the second repo?
Drop the repo parameter for `init_grep_defaults()`.

For the past 15 years, we've used the hardcoded 64 as the length
limit of the filename of the output from the "git format-patch"
command. Since the value is shorter than the 80-column terminal, it
could grow without line wrapping a bit. At the same time, since the
value is longer than half of the 80-column terminal, we could fit
two or more of them in "ls" output on such a terminal if we allowed
to lower it.
Introduce a new command line option --filename-max-length=<n> and a
new configuration variable format.filenameMaxLength to override the
hardcoded default.
While we are at it, remove a check that the name of output directory
does not exceed PATH_MAX---this check is pointless in that by the
time control reaches the function, the caller would already have
done an equivalent of "mkdir -p", so if the system does not like an
overly long directory name, the control wouldn't have reached here,
and otherwise, we know that the system allowed the output directory
to exist. In the worst case, we will get an error when we try to
open the output file and handle the error correctly anyway.

We've never intended to support diff's --output option in format-patch.
And until baa4adc66a (parse-options: disable option abbreviation with
PARSE_OPT_KEEP_UNKNOWN, 2019-01-27), it was impossible to trigger. We
first parse the format-patch options before handing the remainder off to
setup_revisions(). Before that commit, we'd accept "--output=foo" as an
abbreviation for "--output-directory=foo". But afterwards, we don't
check abbreviations, and --output gets passed to the diff code.
This results in nonsense behavior and bugs. The diff code will have
opened a filehandle at rev.diffopt.file, but we'll overwrite that with
our own handles that we open for each individual patch file. So the
--output file will always just be empty. But worse, the diff code also
sets rev.diffopt.close_file, so log_tree_commit() will close the
filehandle itself. And then the main loop in cmd_format_patch() will try
to close it again, resulting in a double-free.
The simplest solution would be to just disallow --output with
format-patch, as nobody ever intended it to work. However, we have
accidentally documented it (because format-patch includes diff-options).
And it does work with "git log", which writes the whole output to the
specified file. It's easy enough to make that work for format-patch,
too: it's really the same as --stdout, but pointed at a specific file.
We can detect the use of the --output option by the "close_file" flag
(note that we can't use rev.diffopt.file, since the diff setup will
otherwise set it to stdout). So we just need to unset that flag, but
don't have to do anything else. Our situation is otherwise exactly like
--stdout (note that we don't fclose() the file, but nor does the stdout
case; exiting the program takes care of that for us).

In format-patch we're either outputting to stdout or to individual files
in an output directory (which may be just "./"). Our logic for whether
to open a new file for each patch is checked with "!use_stdout", but it
is equally correct to check for a non-NULL output_directory.
The distinction will matter when we add a new single-stream output in a
future patch, when only one of the three methods will want individual
files. Let's swap the logic here in preparation.

The --stdout and --output-directory options are mutually exclusive, but
it's hard to tell from reading the code. We have three separate
conditionals that check for use_stdout, and it's only after we've set up
the output_directory fully that we check whether the user also specified
--stdout.
Instead, let's check the exclusion explicitly first, then have a single
conditional that handles stdout versus an output directory. This is
slightly easier to follow now, and also will keep things sane when we
add another output mode in a future patch.
We'll add a few tests as well, covering the mutual exclusion and the
fact that we are not confused by a configured output directory.

The -L option is documented to accept no pathspec, but the
command line option parser has allowed the combination without
checking so far. Ensure that there is no pathspec when the -L
option is in effect to fix this.
Incidentally, this change fixes another bug in the command line
option parser, which has allowed the -L option used together
with the --follow option. Because the latter requires exactly
one path given, but the former takes no pathspec, they become
mutually incompatible automatically. Because the -L option
follows renames on its own, there is no reason to give --follow
at the same time.
The new tests say they may fail with "-L and --follow being
incompatible" instead of "-L and pathspec being incompatible".
Currently the expected failure can come only from the latter, but
this is to futureproof them, in case we decide to add code to
explicititly die on -L and --follow used together.

'git blame -h' and 'git log -h' both show '-L <n,m>' and describe this
option as "Process only line range n,m, counting from 1". No hint is
given that a function name regex can also be used.
Use <range> instead, and expand the description of the option to mention
both modes. Remove "counting from 1" as it's uneeded; it's uncommon to
refer to the first line of a file as "line 0".
Also, for 'git log', improve the wording to better reflect the long help.

Ted reported an old typo in the git-commit.txt and merge-options.txt.
Namely, the phrase "Signed-off-by line" was used without either a
definite nor indefinite article.
Upon examination, it seems that the documentation (including items in
Documentation/, but also option help strings) have been quite
inconsistent on usage when referring to `Signed-off-by`.
First, very few places used a definite or indefinite article with the
phrase "Signed-off-by line", but that was the initial typo that led
to this investigation. So, normalize using either an indefinite or
definite article consistently.
The original phrasing, in Commit 3f971fc425b (Documentation updates,
2005-08-14), is "Add Signed-off-by line". Commit 6f855371a53 (Add
--signoff, --check, and long option-names. 2005-12-09) switched to
using "Add `Signed-off-by:` line", but didn't normalize the former
commit to match. Later commits seem to have cut and pasted from one
or the other, which is likely how the usage became so inconsistent.
Junio stated on the git mailing list in
<xmqqy2k1dfoh.fsf@gitster.c.googlers.com> a preference to leave off
the colon. Thus, prefer `Signed-off-by` (with backticks) for the
documentation files and Signed-off-by (without backticks) for option
help strings.
Additionally, Junio argued that "trailer" is now the standard term to
refer to `Signed-off-by`, saying that "becomes plenty clear that we
are not talking about any random line in the log message". As such,
prefer "trailer" over "line" anywhere the former word fits.
However, leave alone those few places in documentation that use
Signed-off-by to refer to the process (rather than the specific
trailer), or in places where mail headers are generally discussed in
comparison with Signed-off-by.

"git format-patch" learns to take "whenAble" as a possible value
for the format.useAutoBase configuration variable to become no-op
when the automatically computed base does not make sense.
* jk/format-auto-base-when-able:
format-patch: teach format.useAutoBase "whenAble" option
|

"git shortlog" has been taught to group commits by the contents of
the trailer lines, like "Reviewed-by:", "Coauthored-by:", etc.
* jk/shortlog-group-by-trailer:
shortlog: allow multiple groups to be specified
shortlog: parse trailer idents
shortlog: rename parse_stdin_ident()
shortlog: de-duplicate trailer values
shortlog: match commit trailers with --group
trailer: add interface for iterating over commit trailers
shortlog: add grouping option
shortlog: change "author" variables to "ident"

The format.useAutoBase configuration option exists to allow users to
enable '--base=auto' for format-patch by default.
This can sometimes lead to poor workflow, due to unexpected failures
when attempting to format an ancient patch:
$ git format-patch -1 <an old commit>
fatal: base commit shouldn't be in revision list
This can be very confusing, as it is not necessarily immediately obvious
that the user requested a --base (since this was in the configuration,
not on the command line).
We do want --base=auto to fail when it cannot provide a suitable base,
as it would be equally confusing if a formatted patch did not include
the base information when it was requested.
Teach format.useAutoBase a new mode, "whenAble". This mode will cause
format-patch to attempt to include a base commit when it can. However,
if no valid base commit can be found, then format-patch will continue
formatting the patch without a base commit.
In order to avoid making yet another branch name unusable with --base,
do not teach --base=whenAble or --base=whenable.
Instead, refactor the base_commit option to use a callback, and rely on
the global configuration variable auto_base.
This does mean that a user cannot request this optional base commit
generation from the command line. However, this is likely not too
valuable. If the user requests base information manually, they will be
immediately informed of the failure to acquire a suitable base commit.
This allows the user to make an informed choice about whether to
continue the format.
Add tests to cover the new mode of operation for --base.
