2019-01-18Merge branch 'js/gc-repack-close-before-remove'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
"git gc" and "git repack" did not close the open packfiles that they found unneeded before removing them, which didn't work on a platform incapable of removing an open file. This has been corrected. * js/gc-repack-close-before-remove: gc/repack: release packs when needed
2019-01-11gc/repack: release packs when neededLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+2
On Windows, files cannot be removed nor renamed if there are still handles held by a process. To remedy that, we introduced the close_all_packs() function. Earlier, we made sure that the packs are released just before `git gc` is spawned, in case that gc wants to remove no-longer needed packs. But this developer forgot that gc itself also needs to let go of packs, e.g. when consolidating all packs via the --aggressive option. Likewise, `git repack -d` wants to delete obsolete packs and therefore needs to close all pack handles, too.

2018-11-06Merge branch 'js/shallow-and-fetch-prune'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+6
"git repack" in a shallow clone did not correctly update the shallow points in the repository, leading to a repository that does not pass fsck. * js/shallow-and-fetch-prune: repack -ad: prune the list of shallow commits shallow: offer to prune only non-existing entries repack: point out a bug handling stale shallow info
2018-10-25repack -ad: prune the list of shallow commitsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+6
`git repack` can drop unreachable commits without further warning, making the corresponding entries in `.git/shallow` invalid, which causes serious problems when deepening the branches. One scenario where unreachable commits are dropped by `git repack` is when a `git fetch --prune` (or even a `git fetch` when a ref was force-pushed in the meantime) can make a commit unreachable that was reachable before. Therefore it is not safe to assume that a `git repack -adlf` will keep unreachable commits alone (under the assumption that they had not been packed in the first place, which is an assumption at least some of Git's code seems to make). This is particularly important to keep in mind when looking at the `.git/shallow` file: if any commits listed in that file become unreachable, it is not a problem, but if they go missing, it *is* a problem. One symptom of this problem is that a deepening fetch may now fail with fatal: error in object: unshallow <commit-hash> To avoid this problem, let's prune the shallow list in `git repack` when the `-d` option is passed, unless `-A` is passed, too (which would force the now-unreachable objects to be turned into loose objects instead of being deleted). Additionally, we also need to take `--keep-reachable` and `--unpack-unreachable=<date>` into account. Note: an alternative solution discussed during the review of this patch was to teach `git fetch` to simply ignore entries in .git/shallow if the corresponding commits do not exist locally. A quick test, however, revealed that the .git/shallow file is written during a shallow *clone*, in which case the commits do not exist, either, but the "shallow" line *does* need to be sent. Therefore, this approach would be a lot more finicky than the approach presented by the this patch.

2018-10-22multi-pack-index: define GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEXLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+4
The multi-pack-index feature is tested in isolation by t5319-multi-pack-index.sh, but there are many more interesting scenarios in the test suite surrounding pack-file data shapes and interactions. Since the multi-pack-index is an optional data structure, it does not make sense to include it by default in those tests. Instead, add a new GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX environment variable that enables core.multiPackIndex and writes a multi-pack-index after each 'git repack' command. This adds extra test coverage when needed. There are a few spots in the test suite that need to react to this change: * t5319-multi-pack-index.sh: there is a test that checks that 'git repack' deletes the multi-pack-index. Disable the environment variable to ensure this still happens. * t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh: One test moves a pack-file from the object directory to an alternate. This breaks the multi-pack-index, so delete the multi-pack-index at this point, if it exists. * t9300-fast-import.sh: One test verifies the number of files in the .git/objects/pack directory is exactly 8. Exclude the multi-pack-index from this count so it is still 8 in all cases. Signed-off-by: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2018-08-09repack: repack promisor objects if -a or -A is setLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-4/+79
Currently, repack does not touch promisor packfiles at all, potentially causing the performance of repositories that have many such packfiles to drop. Therefore, repack all promisor objects if invoked with -a or -A. This is done by an additional invocation of pack-objects on all promisor objects individually given, which takes care of deduplication and allows the resulting packfiles to respect flags such as --max-pack-size.

2018-04-16repack: add --keep-pack optionLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+18
We allow to keep existing packs by having companion .keep files. This is helpful when a pack is permanently kept. In the next patch, git-gc just wants to keep a pack temporarily, for one pack-objects run. git-gc can use --keep-pack for this use case. A note about why the pack_keep field cannot be reused and pack_keep_in_core has to be added. This is about the case when --keep-pack is specified together with either --keep-unreachable or --unpack-unreachable, but --honor-pack-keep is NOT specified. In this case, we want to exclude objects from the packs specified on command line, not from ones with .keep files. If only one bit flag is used, we have to clear pack_keep on pack files with the .keep file. But we can't make any assumption about unreachable objects in .keep packs. If "pack_keep" field is false for .keep packs, we could potentially pull lots of unreachable objects into the new pack, or unpack them loose. The safer approach is ignore all packs with either .keep file or --keep-pack. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-06-14repack: extend --keep-unreachable to loose objectsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
If you use "repack -adk" currently, we will pack all objects that are already packed into the new pack, and then drop the old packs. However, loose unreachable objects will be left as-is. In theory these are meant to expire eventually with "git prune". But if you are using "repack -k", you probably want to keep things forever and therefore do not run "git prune" at all. Meaning those loose objects may build up over time and end up fooling any object-count heuristics (such as the one done by "gc --auto", though since git-gc does not support "repack -k", this really applies to whatever custom scripts people might have driving "repack -k"). With this patch, we instead stuff any loose unreachable objects into the pack along with the already-packed unreachable objects. This may seem wasteful, but it is really no more so than using "repack -k" in the first place. We are at a slight disadvantage, in that we have no useful ordering for the result, or names to hand to the delta code. However, this is again no worse than what "repack -k" is already doing for the packed objects. The packing of these objects doesn't matter much because they should not be accessed frequently (unless they actually _do_ become referenced, but then they would get moved to a different part of the packfile during the next repack).

2016-06-14repack: add --keep-unreachable optionLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+9
The usual way to do a full repack (and what is done by git-gc) is to run "repack -Ad --unpack-unreachable=<when>", which will loosen any unreachable objects newer than "<when>", and drop any older ones. This is a safer alternative to "repack -ad", because "<when>" becomes a grace period during which we will not drop any new objects that are about to be referenced. However, it isn't perfectly safe. It's always possible that a process is about to reference an old object. Even if that process were to take care to update the timestamp on the object, there is no atomicity with a simultaneously running "repack" process. So while unlikely, there is a small race wherein we may drop an object that is in the process of being referenced. If you do automated repacking on a large number of active repositories, you may hit it eventually, and the result is a corrupted repository. It would be nice to fix that race in the long run, but it's complicated. In the meantime, there is a much simpler strategy for automated repository maintenance: do not drop objects at all. We already have a "--keep-unreachable" option in pack-objects; we just need to plumb it through from git-repack. Note that this _isn't_ plumbed through from git-gc, so at this point it's strictly a tool for people doing their own advanced repository maintenance strategy.

2016-01-15strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged. By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter. This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(), namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of them. The changes contained in this patch are: * introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch] * mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the respective thin wrapper. After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take over the shorter name strbuf_getline(). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-06-24introduce "preciousObjects" repository extensionLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
If this extension is used in a repository, then no operations should run which may drop objects from the object storage. This can be useful if you are sharing that storage with other repositories whose refs you cannot see. For instance, if you do: $ git clone -s parent child $ git -C parent config extensions.preciousObjects true $ git -C parent config core.repositoryformatversion 1 you now have additional safety when running git in the parent repository. Prunes and repacks will bail with an error, and `git gc` will skip those operations (it will continue to pack refs and do other non-object operations). Older versions of git, when run in the repository, will fail on every operation. Note that we do not set the preciousObjects extension by default when doing a "clone -s", as doing so breaks backwards compatibility. It is a decision the user should make explicitly.

2014-10-19repack: pack objects mentioned by the indexLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
When we pack all objects, we use only the objects reachable from references and reflogs. This misses any objects which are reachable from the index, but not yet referenced. By itself this isn't a big deal; the objects can remain loose until they are actually used in a commit. However, it does create a problem when we drop packed but unreachable objects. We try to optimize out the writing of objects that we will immediately prune, which means we must follow the same rules as prune in determining what is reachable. And prune uses the index for this purpose. This is rather uncommon in practice, as objects in the index would not usually have been packed in the first place. But it could happen in a sequence like: 1. You make a commit on a branch that references blob X. 2. You repack, moving X into the pack. 3. You delete the branch (and its reflog), so that X is unreferenced. 4. You "git add" blob X so that it is now referenced only by the index. 5. You repack again with git-gc. The pack-objects we invoke will see that X is neither referenced nor recent and not bother loosening it. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Call the functions behind git prune-packed and git update-server-info directly instead of using run_command(). This is shorter, easier and quicker. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-08-20run-command: introduce CHILD_PROCESS_INITLibravatar René Scharfe1-2/+1
Most struct child_process variables are cleared using memset first after declaration. Provide a macro, CHILD_PROCESS_INIT, that can be used to initialize them statically instead. That's shorter, doesn't require a function call and is slightly more readable (especially given that we already have STRBUF_INIT, ARGV_ARRAY_INIT etc.).

* jk/strip-suffix: prepare_packed_git_one: refactor duplicate-pack check verify-pack: use strbuf_strip_suffix strbuf: implement strbuf_strip_suffix index-pack: use strip_suffix to avoid magic numbers use strip_suffix instead of ends_with in simple cases replace has_extension with ends_with implement ends_with via strip_suffix add strip_suffix function sha1_file: replace PATH_MAX buffer with strbuf in prepare_packed_git_one()
2014-06-30use strip_suffix instead of ends_with in simple casesLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+2
When stripping a suffix like: if (ends_with(str, "foo")) buf = xmemdupz(str, strlen(str) - 3); we can instead use strip_suffix to avoid the constant 3, which must match the literal "foo" (we sometimes use strlen("foo") instead, but that means we are repeating ourselves). The example above becomes: if (strip_suffix(str, "foo", &len)) buf = xmemdupz(str, len); This also saves a strlen(), since we calculate the string length when detecting the suffix. Note that in some cases we also switch from xstrndup to xmemdupz, which saves a further strlen call. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

* jk/repack-pack-writebitmaps-config: t7700: drop explicit --no-pack-kept-objects from .keep test repack: introduce repack.writeBitmaps config option repack: simplify handling of --write-bitmap-index pack-objects: stop respecting pack.writebitmaps
2014-06-25Merge branch 'jk/repack-pack-keep-objects'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-5/+9
Recent updates to "git repack" started to duplicate objects that are in packfiles marked with .keep flag into the new packfile by mistake. * jk/repack-pack-keep-objects: repack: s/write_bitmap/&s/ in code repack: respect pack.writebitmaps repack: do not accidentally pack kept objects by default
2014-06-10repack: introduce repack.writeBitmaps config optionLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
We currently have pack.writeBitmaps, which originally operated at the pack-objects level. This should really have been a repack.* option from day one. Let's give it the more sensible name, but keep the old version as a deprecated synonym. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-06-10repack: simplify handling of --write-bitmap-indexLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+4
We previously needed to pass --no-write-bitmap-index explicitly to pack-objects to override its reading of pack.writebitmaps from the config. Now that it no longer does so, we can assume that bitmaps are off by default, and only turn them on when necessary. This also lets us avoid a confusing tri-state flag for write_bitmaps.

2014-06-10repack: s/write_bitmap/&s/ in codeLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+6
The config name is "writeBitmaps", so the internal variable missing the plural is unnecessarily confusing to write. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
