2015-09-28react to errors in xdi_diffLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+6
When we call into xdiff to perform a diff, we generally lose the return code completely. Typically by ignoring the return of our xdi_diff wrapper, but sometimes we even propagate that return value up and then ignore it later. This can lead to us silently producing incorrect diffs (e.g., "git log" might produce no output at all, not even a diff header, for a content-level diff). In practice this does not happen very often, because the typical reason for xdiff to report failure is that it malloc() failed (it uses straight malloc, and not our xmalloc wrapper). But it could also happen when xdiff triggers one our callbacks, which returns an error (e.g., outf() in builtin/rerere.c tries to report a write failure in this way). And the next patch also plans to add more failure modes. Let's notice an error return from xdiff and react appropriately. In most of the diff.c code, we can simply die(), which matches the surrounding code (e.g., that is what we do if we fail to load a file for diffing in the first place). This is not that elegant, but we are probably better off dying to let the user know there was a problem, rather than simply generating bogus output. We could also just die() directly in xdi_diff, but the callers typically have a bit more context, and can provide a better message (and if we do later decide to pass errors up, we're one step closer to doing so). There is one interesting case, which is in diff_grep(). Here if we cannot generate the diff, there is nothing to match, and we silently return "no hits". This is actually what the existing code does already, but we make it a little more explicit. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-09-01rerere: release lockfile in non-writing functionsLibravatar Jeff King1-9/+9
There's a bug in builtin/am.c in which we take a lock on MERGE_RR recursively. But rather than fix am.c, this patch fixes the confusing interface from rerere.c that caused the bug. Read on for the gory details. The setup_rerere() function both reads the existing MERGE_RR file, and takes MERGE_RR.lock. In the rerere() and rerere_forget() functions, we end up in write_rr(), which will then commit the lock file. But for functions like rerere_clear() that do not write to MERGE_RR, we expect the caller to have handled setup_rerere(). That caller would then need to release the lockfile, but it can't; the lock struct is local to rerere.c. For builtin/rerere.c, this is OK. We run a single rerere operation and then exit immediately, which has the side effect of rolling back the lockfile. But in builtin/am.c, this is actively wrong. If we run "git am -3 --skip", we call setup-rerere twice without releasing the lock: 1. The "--skip" causes us to call am_rerere_clear(), which calls setup_rerere(), but never drops the lock. 2. We then proceed to the next patch. 3. The "--3way" may cause us to call rerere() to handle conflicts in that patch, but we are already holding the lock. The lockfile code dies with: BUG: prepare_tempfile_object called for active object We could fix this by having rerere_clear() call rollback_lock_file(). But it feels a bit odd for it to roll back a lockfile that it did not itself take. So let's simplify the interface further, and handle setup_rerere in the function itself, taking away the question from the caller over whether they need to do so. We can give rerere_gc() the same treatment, as well (even though it doesn't have any callers besides builtin/rerere.c at this point). Note that these functions don't take flags from their callers to pass along to setup_rerere; that's OK, because the flags would not be meaningful for what they are doing. Both of those functions need to hold the lock because even though they do not write to MERGE_RR, they are still writing and should be protected from a simultaneous "rerere" run. But rerere_remaining(), "rerere diff", and "rerere status" are all read-only operations. They want to setup_rerere(), but do not care about taking the lock in the first place. Since our update of MERGE_RR is the usual atomic rename done by commit_lock_file, they can just do a lockless read. For that, we teach setup_rerere a READONLY flag to avoid the lock. As a bonus, this pushes builtin/rerere.c's setup_rerere call closer to the functions that use it. Which means that "git rerere totally-bogus-command" will no longer silently exit(0) in a repository without rerere enabled.

2014-04-30rerere: fix for merge.conflictstyleLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-0/+2
If we use a different conflict style `git rerere forget` is not able to find the matching conflict SHA-1 because the diff generated is actually different from what `git merge` generated, due to the XDL_MERGE_* option differences among the codepaths. The fix is to call git_xmerge_config() so that git_xmerge_style is set properly and the diffs match.

2011-03-02rerere forget: deprecate invocation without pathspecLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-2/+5
rerere forget is a destructive command. When invoked without a path, it operates on the current directory, potentially deleting many recorded conflict resolutions. To make the command safer, a path must be specified as of git 1.8.0. Until then, give users time to write 'git rerere forget .' if they really mean the entire current directory.

2011-02-16rerere "remaining"Libravatar Martin von Zweigbergk1-2/+12
After "rerere" resolves conflicts by reusing old resolution, there would be three kinds of paths with conflict in the index: * paths that have been resolved in the working tree by rerere; * paths that need further work whose resolution could be recorded; * paths that need resolving that rerere won't help. When the user wants a list of paths that need hand-resolving, output from "rerere status" does not help, as it shows only the second category, but the paths in the third category still needs work (rerere only makes sense for regular files that have both our side and their side, and does not help other kinds of conflicts, e.g. "we modified, they deleted"). The new subcommand "rerere remaining" can be used to show both. As opposed to "rerere status", this subcommand also skips printing paths that have been added to the index, since these paths are already resolved and are no longer "remaining". Initial patch provided by Junio. Refactored and modified to skip resolved paths by Martin. Commit message mostly by Junio.

2010-07-14rerere: fix overeager gcLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-5/+16
'rerere gc' prunes resolutions of conflicted merges that occurred long time ago, and when doing so it takes the creation time of the conflicted automerge results into account. This can cause the loss of frequently used conflict resolutions (e.g. long-living topic branches are merged into a regularly rebuilt integration branch (think of git's pu)) when they become old enough to exceed 'rerere gc's threshold. To prevent the loss of valuable merge resolutions 'rerere' will (1) update the timestamp of the recorded conflict resolution (i.e. 'postimage') each time when encountering and resolving the same merge conflict, and (2) take this timestamp, i.e. the time of the last usage into account when gc'ing.

This shrinks the top-level directory a bit, and makes it much more pleasant to use auto-completion on the thing. Instead of [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> Display all 180 possibilities? (y or n) [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-sh builtin-shortlog.c builtin-show-branch.c builtin-show-ref.c builtin-shortlog.o builtin-show-branch.o builtin-show-ref.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shor<tab> builtin-shortlog.c builtin-shortlog.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin-shortlog.c you get [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em buil<tab> [type] builtin/ builtin.h [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin [auto-completes to] [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sh<tab> [type] shortlog.c shortlog.o show-branch.c show-branch.o show-ref.c show-ref.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/sho [auto-completes to] [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shor<tab> [type] shortlog.c shortlog.o [torvalds@nehalem git]$ em builtin/shortlog.c which doesn't seem all that different, but not having that annoying break in "Display all 180 possibilities?" is quite a relief. NOTE! If you do this in a clean tree (no object files etc), or using an editor that has auto-completion rules that ignores '*.o' files, you won't see that annoying 'Display all 180 possibilities?' message - it will just show the choices instead. I think bash has some cut-off around 100 choices or something. So the reason I see this is that I'm using an odd editory, and thus don't have the rules to cut down on auto-completion. But you can simulate that by using 'ls' instead, or something similar. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
