Code clean-up.
* rs/strbuf-insertstr:
mailinfo: don't insert header prefix for handle_content_type()
strbuf: add and use strbuf_insertstr()
|
|
Add a function for inserting a C string into a strbuf. Use it
throughout the source to get rid of magic string length constants and
explicit strlen() calls.
Like strbuf_addstr(), implement it as an inline function to avoid the
implicit strlen() calls to cause runtime overhead.

The sparse-checkout patterns allow special globs according to
fnmatch(3). When writing cone-mode patterns for paths containing
these characters, they must be escaped.
Use is_glob_special() to check which characters must be escaped
this way, and add a path to the tests that contains all glob
characters at once. Note that ']' is not special, since the
initial bracket '[' is escaped.

When in cone mode, the 'git sparse-checkout list' subcommand lists
the directories included in the sparse cone. When these directories
contain odd characters, such as a backslash, then we need to use
C-style quotes similar to 'git ls-tree'.

If a user somehow creates a directory with an asterisk (*) or backslash
(\), then the "git sparse-checkout set" command will struggle to provide
the correct pattern in the sparse-checkout file. When not in cone mode,
the provided pattern is written directly into the sparse-checkout file.
However, in cone mode we expect a list of paths to directories and then
we convert those into patterns.
Even more specifically, the goal is to always allow the following from
the root of a repo:
git ls-tree --name-only -d HEAD | git sparse-checkout set --stdin
The ls-tree command provides directory names with an unescaped asterisk.
It also quotes the directories that contain an escaped backslash. We
must remove these quotes, then keep the escaped backslashes.
Use unquote_c_style() when parsing lines from stdin. Command-line
arguments will be parsed as-is, assuming the user can do the correct
level of escaping from their environment to match the exact directory
names.

However, there is some care needed for the timing of these escapes. The
in-memory pattern list is used to update the working directory before
writing the patterns to disk. Thus, we need the command to have the
unescaped names in the hashsets for the cone comparisons, then escape
the patterns later.

The 'git init' command creates the ".git/info" directory and fills it
with some default files. However, 'git worktree add' does not create
the info directory for that worktree. This causes a problem when running
"git sparse-checkout init" inside a worktree. While care was taken to
allow the sparse-checkout config to be specific to a worktree, this
initialization was untested.
Safely create the leading directories for the sparse-checkout file. This
is the safest thing to do even without worktrees, as a user could delete
their ".git/info" directory and expect Git to recover safely.

When core.sparseCheckoutCone is enabled, the 'git sparse-checkout set'
command takes a list of directories as input, then creates an ordered
list of sparse-checkout patterns such that those directories are
recursively included and all sibling entries along the parent directories
are also included. Listing the patterns is less user-friendly than the
directories themselves.
In cone mode, and as long as the patterns match the expected cone-mode
pattern types, change the output of 'git sparse-checkout list' to only
show the directories that created the patterns.
With this change, the following piped commands would not change the
working directory:
git sparse-checkout list | git sparse-checkout set --stdin
The only time this would not work is if core.sparseCheckoutCone is
true, but the sparse-checkout file contains patterns that do not
match the expected pattern types for cone mode.

When a user uses the sparse-checkout feature in cone mode, they
add patterns using "git sparse-checkout set <dir1> <dir2> ..."
or by using "--stdin" to provide the directories line-by-line over
stdin. This behaviour naturally looks a lot like the way a user
would type "git add <dir1> <dir2> ..."
If core.ignoreCase is enabled, then "git add" will match the input
using a case-insensitive match. Do the same for the sparse-checkout
feature.
Perform case-insensitive checks while updating the skip-worktree
bits during unpack_trees(). This is done by changing the hash
algorithm and hashmap comparison methods to optionally use case-
insensitive methods.
When this is enabled, there is a small performance cost in the
hashing algorithm. To tease out the worst possible case, the
following was run on a repo with a deep directory structure:
git ls-tree -d -r --name-only HEAD |
git sparse-checkout set --stdin
The 'set' command was timed with core.ignoreCase disabled or
enabled. For the repo with a deep history, the numbers were
core.ignoreCase=false: 62s
core.ignoreCase=true: 74s (+19.3%)
For reproducibility, the equivalent test on the Linux kernel
repository had these numbers:
core.ignoreCase=false: 3.1s
core.ignoreCase=true: 3.6s (+16%)
Now, this is not an entirely fair comparison, as most users
will define their sparse cone using more shallow directories,
and the performance improvement from eb42feca97 ("unpack-trees:
hash less in cone mode" 2019-11-21) can remove most of the
hash cost. For a more realistic test, drop the "-r" from the
ls-tree command to store only the first-level directories.
In that case, the Linux kernel repository takes 0.2-0.25s in
each case, and the deep repository takes one second, plus or
minus 0.05s, in each case.
Thus, we _can_ demonstrate a cost to this change, but it is
unlikely to matter to any reasonable sparse-checkout cone.

The 'git sparse-checkout init' subcommand previously wrote directly
to the sparse-checkout file and then updated the working directory.
This may fail if there are modified files not included in the initial
pattern set. However, that left a populated sparse-checkout file.
Use the in-process working directory update to guarantee that the
init subcommand only changes the sparse-checkout file if the working
directory update succeeds.

If two 'git sparse-checkout set' subcommands are launched at the
same time, the behavior can be unexpected as they compete to write
the sparse-checkout file and update the working directory.
Take a lockfile around the writes to the sparse-checkout file. In
addition, acquire this lock around the working directory update
to avoid two commands updating the working directory in different
ways.

The 'git sparse-checkout disable' subcommand returns a user to a
full working directory. The old process for doing this required
updating the sparse-checkout file with the "/*" pattern and then
updating the working directory with core.sparseCheckout enabled.
Finally, the sparse-checkout file could be removed and the config
setting disabled.
However, it is valuable to keep a user's sparse-checkout file
intact so they can re-enable the sparse-checkout they previously
used with 'git sparse-checkout init'. This is now possible with
the in-process mechanism for updating the working directory.

The sparse-checkout builtin used 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' to update the
skip-worktree bits in the index and to update the working directory.
This extra process is overly complex, and prone to failure. It also
requires that we write our changes to the sparse-checkout file before
trying to update the index.
Remove this extra process call by creating a direct call to
unpack_trees() in the same way 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' does. In
addition, provide an in-memory list of patterns so we can avoid
reading from the sparse-checkout file. This allows us to test a
proposed change to the file before writing to it.
An earlier version of this patch included a bug when the 'set' command
failed due to the "Sparse checkout leaves no entry on working directory"
error. It would not rollback the index.lock file, so the replay of the
old sparse-checkout specification would fail. A test in t1091 now
covers that scenario.

If a user provides folders A/ and A/B/ for inclusion in a cone-mode
sparse-checkout file, the parsing logic will notice that A/ appears
both as a "parent" type pattern and as a "recursive" type pattern.
This is unexpected and hence will complain via a warning and revert
to the old logic for checking sparse-checkout patterns.
Prevent this from happening accidentally by sanitizing the folders
for this type of inclusion in the 'git sparse-checkout' builtin.
This happens in two ways:
1. Do not include any parent patterns that also appear as recursive
patterns.
2. Do not include any recursive patterns deeper than other recursive
patterns.
In order to minimize duplicate code for scanning parents, create
hashmap_contains_parent() method. It takes a strbuf buffer to
avoid reallocating a buffer when calling in a tight loop.

To make the cone pattern set easy to use, update the behavior of
'git sparse-checkout (init|set)'.
Add '--cone' flag to 'git sparse-checkout init' to set the config
option 'core.sparseCheckoutCone=true'.
When running 'git sparse-checkout set' in cone mode, a user only
needs to supply a list of recursive folder matches. Git will
automatically add the necessary parent matches for the leading
directories.
When testing 'git sparse-checkout set' in cone mode, check the
error stream to ensure we do not see any errors. Specifically,
we want to avoid the warning that the patterns do not match
the cone-mode patterns.

and places them in the sparse-checkout file. Then, it updates the

The 'git sparse-checkout set' subcommand takes a list of patterns
as arguments and writes them to the sparse-checkout file. Then, it
updates the working directory using 'git read-tree -mu HEAD'.
The 'set' subcommand will replace the entire contents of the
sparse-checkout file. The write_patterns_and_update() method is
extracted from cmd_sparse_checkout() to make it easier to implement
'add' and/or 'remove' subcommands in the future.
If the core.sparseCheckout config setting is disabled, then enable
the config setting in the worktree config. If we set the config
this way and the sparse-checkout fails, then re-disable the config
setting.

When someone wants to clone a large repository, but plans to work
using a sparse-checkout file, they either need to do a full
checkout first and then reduce the patterns they included, or
clone with --no-checkout, set up their patterns, and then run
a checkout manually. This requires knowing a lot about the repo
shape and how sparse-checkout works.
Add a new '--sparse' option to 'git clone' that initializes the
sparse-checkout file to include the following patterns:
/*
!/*/
These patterns include every file in the root directory, but
no directories. This allows a repo to include files like a
README or a bootstrapping script to grow enlistments from that
point.
During the 'git sparse-checkout init' call, we must first look
to see if HEAD is valid, since 'git clone' does not have a valid
HEAD at the point where it initializes the sparse-checkout. The
following checkout within the clone command will create the HEAD
ref and update the working directory correctly.

Getting started with a sparse-checkout file can be daunting. Help
users start their sparse enlistment using 'git sparse-checkout init'.
This will set 'core.sparseCheckout=true' in their config, write
an initial set of patterns to the sparse-checkout file, and update
their working directory.
Make sure to use the `extensions.worktreeConfig` setting and write
the sparse checkout config to the worktree-specific config file.
This avoids confusing interactions with other worktrees.
The use of running another process for 'git read-tree' is sub-
optimal. This will be removed in a later change.

The sparse-checkout feature is mostly hidden to users, as its
only documentation is supplementary information in the docs for
'git read-tree'. In addition, users need to know how to edit the
.git/info/sparse-checkout file with the right patterns, then run
the appropriate 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' command. Keeping the
working directory in sync with the sparse-checkout file requires
care.
Begin an effort to make the sparse-checkout feature a porcelain
feature by creating a new 'git sparse-checkout' builtin. This
builtin will be the preferred mechanism for manipulating the
sparse-checkout file and syncing the working directory.
The documentation provided is adapted from the "git read-tree"
documentation with a few edits for clarity in the new context.
Extra sections are added to hint toward a future change to
a more restricted pattern set.
