Send errors from "unpack-objects" and "index-pack" back to the "git push" over the git and smart-http protocols, just like it is done for a push over the ssh protocol. * jk/receive-pack-unpack-error-to-pusher: receive-pack: drop "n/a" on unpacker errors receive-pack: send pack-processing stderr over sideband receive-pack: redirect unpack-objects stdout to /dev/null
2012-09-21receive-pack: drop "n/a" on unpacker errorsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The output from git push currently looks like this: $ git push dest HEAD fatal: [some message from index-pack] error: unpack failed: index-pack abnormal exit To dest ! [remote rejected] HEAD -> master (n/a (unpacker error)) That n/a is meant to be "the per-ref status is not available" but the nested parentheses just make it look ugly. Let's turn the final line into just: ! [remote rejected] HEAD -> master (unpacker error) Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-09-21receive-pack: send pack-processing stderr over sidebandLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+24
Receive-pack invokes either unpack-objects or index-pack to handle the incoming pack. However, we do not redirect the stderr of the sub-processes at all, so it is never seen by the client. From the initial thread adding sideband support, which is here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/139471 it is clear that some messages are specifically kept off the sideband (with the assumption that they are of interest only to an administrator, not the client). The stderr of the subprocesses is mentioned in the thread, but it's unclear if they are included in that group, or were simply forgotten. However, there are a few good reasons to show them to the client: 1. In many cases, they are directly about the incoming packfile (e.g., fsck warnings with --strict, corruption in the packfile, etc). Without these messages, the client just gets "unpacker error" with no extra useful diagnosis. 2. No matter what the cause, we are probably better off showing the errors to the client. If the client and the server admin are not the same entity, it is probably much easier for the client to cut-and-paste the errors they see than for the admin to try to dig them out of a log and correlate them with a particular session. 3. Users of the ssh transport typically already see these stderr messages, as the remote's stderr is copied literally by ssh. This brings other transports (http, and push-over-git if you are crazy enough to enable it) more in line with ssh. As a bonus for ssh users, because the messages are now fed through the sideband and printed by the local git, they will have "remote:" prepended and be properly interleaved with any local output to stderr.

2012-09-21receive-pack: redirect unpack-objects stdout to /dev/nullLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+6
The unpack-objects command should not generally produce any output on stdout. However, if it's given extra input after the packfile, it will spew the remainder to stdout. When called by receive-pack, this means we will break protocol, since our stdout is connected to the remote send-pack.

2012-08-06receive-pack: do not leak output from auto-gc to standard outputLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+2

2012-08-03include agent identifier in capability stringLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
Instead of having the client advertise a particular version number in the git protocol, we have managed extensions and backwards compatibility by having clients and servers advertise capabilities that they support. This is far more robust than having each side consult a table of known versions, and provides sufficient information for the protocol interaction to complete. However, it does not allow servers to keep statistics on which client versions are being used. This information is not necessary to complete the network request (the capabilities provide enough information for that), but it may be helpful to conduct a general survey of client versions in use. We already send the client version in the user-agent header for http requests; adding it here allows us to gather similar statistics for non-http requests.

2012-02-13do not override receive-pack errorsLibravatar Clemens Buchacher1-7/+17
Receive runs rev-list --verify-objects in order to detect missing objects. However, such errors are ignored and overridden later. Instead, consequently ignore all update commands for which an error has already been detected. Some tests in t5504 are obsoleted by this change, because invalid objects are detected even if fsck is not enabled. Instead, they now test for different error messages depending on whether or not fsck is turned on. A better fix would be to force a corruption that will be detected by fsck but not by rev-list.

2012-01-08server_supports(): parse feature list more carefullyLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+3
We have been carefully choosing feature names used in the protocol extensions so that the vocabulary does not contain a word that is a substring of another word, so it is not a real problem, but we have recently added "quiet" feature word, which would mean we cannot later add some other word with "quiet" (e.g. "quiet-push"), which is awkward. Let's make sure that we can eventually be able to do so by teaching the clients and servers that feature words consist of non whitespace letters. This parser also allows us to later add features with parameters e.g. "feature=1.5" (parameter values need to be quoted for whitespaces, but we will worry about the detauls when we do introduce them).

2012-01-06write_head_info(): handle "extra refs" locallyLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-4/+3

resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer. Callers that use this value longer than a couple of statements should copy the value to avoid some hidden resolve_ref() call that may change the static buffer's value.

The first call is in cmd_merge() branch = resolve_ref("HEAD", head_sha1, 0, &flag); Then deep in lookup_commit_or_die() a few lines after, resolve_ref() may be called again and destroy "branch". lookup_commit_or_die lookup_commit_reference lookup_commit_reference_gently parse_object lookup_replace_object do_lookup_replace_object prepare_replace_object for_each_replace_ref do_for_each_ref get_loose_refs get_ref_dir get_ref_dir resolve_ref All call sites are checked and made sure that xstrdup() is called if the value should be saved.

2011-09-30receive-pack: don't pass non-existent refs to post-{receive,update} hooksLibravatar Pang Yan Han1-6/+12
When a push specifies deletion of non-existent refs, the post post-receive and post-update hooks receive them as input/arguments. For instance, for the following push, where refs/heads/nonexistent is a ref which does not exist on the remote side: git push origin :refs/heads/nonexistent the post-receive hook receives from standard input: <null-sha1> SP <null-sha1> SP refs/heads/nonexistent and the post-update hook receives as arguments: refs/heads/nonexistent which does not make sense since it is a no-op. Teach receive-pack not to pass non-existent refs to the post-receive and post-update hooks. If the push only attempts to delete non-existent refs, these hooks are not even called. The update and pre-receive hooks are still notified about attempted deletion of non-existent refs to give them a chance to inspect the situation and act on it.

Change upload-pack and receive-pack to use the namespace-prefixed refs when working with the repository, and use the unprefixed refs when talking to the client, maintaining the masquerade. This allows clone, pull, fetch, and push to work with a suitably configured GIT_NAMESPACE. receive-pack advertises refs outside the current namespace as .have refs (as it currently does for refs in alternates), so that the client can use them to minimize data transfer but will otherwise ignore them. With appropriate configuration, this also allows http-backend to expose namespaces as multiple repositories with different paths. This only requires setting GIT_NAMESPACE, which http-backend passes through to upload-pack and receive-pack.

2011-05-19receive-pack: eliminate duplicate .have refsLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+13
When receiving a push, we advertise ref tips from any alternate repositories, in case that helps the client send a smaller pack. Since these refs don't actually exist in the destination repository, we don't transmit the real ref names, but instead use the pseudo-ref ".have". If your alternate has a large number of duplicate refs (for example, because it is aggregating objects from many related repositories, some of which will have the same tags and branch tips), then we will send each ".have $sha1" line multiple times. This is a pointless waste of bandwidth, as we are simply repeating the same fact to the client over and over. This patch eliminates duplicate .have refs early on. It does so efficiently by sorting the complete list and skipping duplicates. This has the side effect of re-ordering the .have lines by ascending sha1; this isn't a problem, though, as the original order was meaningless. There is a similar .have system in fetch-pack, but it does not suffer from the same problem. For each alternate ref we consider in fetch-pack, we actually open the object and mark it with the SEEN flag, so duplicates are automatically culled.

2011-05-19refactor refs_from_alternate_cb to allow passing extra dataLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The foreach_alt_odb function triggers a callback for each alternate object db we have, with room for a single void pointer as data. Currently, we always call refs_from_alternate_cb as the callback function, and then pass another callback (to receive each ref individually) as the void pointer. This has two problems: 1. C technically forbids stuffing a function pointer into a "void *". In practice, this probably doesn't matter on any architectures git runs on, but it never hurts to follow the letter of the law. 2. There is no room for an extra data pointer. Indeed, the alternate_ref_fn that refs_from_alternate_cb calls takes a void* for data, but we always pass it NULL. Instead, let's properly stuff our function pointer into a data struct, which also leaves room for an extra caller-supplied data pointer. And to keep things simple for existing callers, let's make a for_each_alternate_ref function that takes care of creating the extra struct.

The receiving end of "git push" advertises the objects that the repository itself does not use, but are at the tips of refs in other repositories whose object databases are used as alternates for it. This helps it avoid having to receive (and the pusher having to send) objects that are already available to the receiving repository via the alternates mechanism. Tweak the helper function that implements this feature, and move it to transport.[ch] for future reuse by other programs.

2011-03-08add packet tracing debug codeLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
This shows a trace of all packets coming in or out of a given program. This can help with debugging object negotiation or other protocol issues. To keep the code changes simple, we operate at the lowest level, meaning we don't necessarily understand what's in the packets. The one exception is a packet starting with "PACK", which causes us to skip that packet and turn off tracing (since the gigantic pack data will not be interesting to read, at least not in the trace format). We show both written and read packets. In the local case, this may mean you will see packets twice (written by the sender and read by the receiver). However, for cases where the other end is remote, this allows you to see the full conversation. Packet tracing can be enabled with GIT_TRACE_PACKET=<foo>, where <foo> takes the same arguments as GIT_TRACE.
