2020-06-22diff-files: treat "i-t-a" files as "not-in-index"Libravatar Srinidhi Kaushik1-0/+7
The `diff-files' command and related commands which call the function `cmd_diff_files()', consider the "intent-to-add" files as a part of the index when comparing the work-tree against it. This was previously addressed in commits [1] and [2] by turning the option `--ita-invisible-in-index' (introduced in [3]) on by default. For `diff-files' (and `add -p' as a consequence) to show the i-t-a files as as new, `ita_invisible_in_index' will be enabled by default here as well.

2020-06-18builtin/diff: update usage commentLibravatar Denton Liu1-3/+15
A comment in cmd_diff() states that if one tree-ish and no blobs are provided, (the "N=1, M=0" case), it will provide a diff between the tree and the cache. This is incorrect because a diff happens between the tree-ish and the working tree. Remove the `--cached` in the comment so that the correct behavior is shown. Add a new section describing the "N=1, M=0, --cached" behavior. Next, describe the "N=0, M=0, --cached" case, similar to the above since it is undocumented. Finally, fix some spacing issues. Add spaces between each section for consistency and readability. Also, change tabs within the comment into spaces.

2020-06-12clean: optimize and document cases where we recurse into subdirectoriesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-2/+31
Commit 6b1db43109 ("clean: teach clean -d to preserve ignored paths", 2017-05-23) added the following code block (among others) to git-clean: if (remove_directories) dir.flags |= DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO | DIR_KEEP_UNTRACKED_CONTENTS; The reason for these flags is well documented in the commit message, but isn't obvious just from looking at the code. Add some explanations to the code to make it clearer. Further, it appears git-2.26 did not correctly handle this combination of flags from git-clean. With both these flags and without DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO_MODE_MATCHING set, git is supposed to recurse into all untracked AND ignored directories. git-2.26.0 clearly was not doing that. I don't know the full reasons for that or whether git < 2.27.0 had additional unknown bugs because of that misbehavior, because I don't feel it's worth digging into. As per the huge changes and craziness documented in commit 8d92fb2927 ("dir: replace exponential algorithm with a linear one", 2020-04-01), the old algorithm was a mess and was thrown out. What I can say is that git-2.27.0 correctly recurses into untracked AND ignored directories with that combination. However, in clean's case we don't need to recurse into ignored directories; that is just a waste of time. Thus, when git-2.27.0 started correctly handling those flags, we got a performance regression report. Rather than relying on other bugs in fill_directory()'s former logic to provide the behavior of skipping ignored directories, make use of the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO_MODE_MATCHING value specifically added in commit eec0f7f2b7 ("status: add option to show ignored files differently", 2017-10-30) for this purpose.

2020-06-12clean: consolidate handling of ignored parametersLibravatar Elijah Newren1-9/+7
I spent a long time trying to figure out how and whether the code worked with different values of ignore, ignore_only, and remove_directories. After lots of time setting up lots of testcases, sifting through lots of print statements, and walking through the debugger, I finally realized that one piece of code related to how it was all setup was found in clean.c rather than dir.c. Make a change that would have made it easier for me to do the extra testing by putting this handling in one spot.

2020-06-12dir, clean: avoid disallowed behaviorLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+1
dir.h documented quite clearly that DIR_SHOW_IGNORED and DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO are mutually exclusive, with a big comment to this effect by the definition of both enum values. However, a command like git clean -fx $DIR would set both values for dir.flags. I _think_ it happened to work because: * As dir.h points out, DIR_KEEP_UNTRACKED_CONTENTS only takes effect if DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO is set. * As coded, I believe DIR_SHOW_IGNORED would just happen to take precedence over DIR_SHOW_IGNORED_TOO in the code as currently constructed. Which is a long way of saying "we just got lucky". Fix clean.c to avoid setting these mutually exclusive values at the same time, and add a check to dir.c that will throw a BUG() to prevent anyone else from making this mistake.

2020-06-12git diff: improve range handlingLibravatar Chris Torek1-13/+111
When git diff is given a symmetric difference A...B, it chooses some merge base from the two specified commits (as documented). This fails, however, if there is *no* merge base: instead, you see the differences between A and B, which is certainly not what is expected. Moreover, if additional revisions are specified on the command line ("git diff A...B C"), the results get a bit weird: * If there is a symmetric difference merge base, this is used as the left side of the diff. The last final ref is used as the right side. * If there is no merge base, the symmetric status is completely lost. We will produce a combined diff instead. Similar weirdness occurs if you use, e.g., "git diff C A...B D". Likewise, using multiple two-dot ranges, or tossing extra revision specifiers into the command line with two-dot ranges, or mixing two and three dot ranges, all produce nonsense. To avoid all this, add a routine to catch the range cases and verify that that the arguments make sense. As a side effect, produce a warning showing *which* merge base is being used when there are multiple choices; die if there is no merge base.

2020-06-10upload-pack: send part of packfile response as uriLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+76
Teach upload-pack to send part of its packfile response as URIs. An administrator may configure a repository with one or more "uploadpack.blobpackfileuri" lines, each line containing an OID, a pack hash, and a URI. A client may configure fetch.uriprotocols to be a comma-separated list of protocols that it is willing to use to fetch additional packfiles - this list will be sent to the server. Whenever an object with one of those OIDs would appear in the packfile transmitted by upload-pack, the server may exclude that object, and instead send the URI. The client will then download the packs referred to by those URIs before performing the connectivity check.

2020-06-10fetch-pack: support more than one pack lockfileLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-6/+11
Whenever a fetch results in a packfile being downloaded, a .keep file is generated, so that the packfile can be preserved (from, say, a running "git repack") until refs are written referring to the contents of the packfile. In a subsequent patch, a successful fetch using protocol v2 may result in more than one .keep file being generated. Therefore, teach fetch_pack() and the transport mechanism to support multiple .keep files. Implementation notes: - builtin/fetch-pack.c normally does not generate .keep files, and thus is unaffected by this or future changes. However, it has an undocumented "--lock-pack" feature, used by remote-curl.c when implementing the "fetch" remote helper command. In keeping with the remote helper protocol, only one "lock" line will ever be written; the rest will result in warnings to stderr. However, in practice, warnings will never be written because the remote-curl.c "fetch" is only used for protocol v0/v1 (which will not generate multiple .keep files). (Protocol v2 uses the "stateless-connect" command, not the "fetch" command.) - connected.c has an optimization in that connectivity checks on a ref need not be done if the target object is in a pack known to be self-contained and connected. If there are multiple packfiles, this optimization can no longer be done. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-06-10worktree: make "move" refuse to move atop missing registered worktreeLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-2/+1
"git worktree add" takes special care to avoid creating a new worktree at a location already registered to an existing worktree even if that worktree is missing (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree resides on removable media). "git worktree move", however, is not so careful when validating the destination location and will happily move the source worktree atop the location of a missing worktree. This leads to the anomalous situation of multiple worktrees being associated with the same path, which is expressly forbidden by design. For example: $ git clone foo.git $ cd foo $ git worktree add ../bar $ git worktree add ../baz $ rm -rf ../bar $ git worktree move ../baz ../bar $ git worktree list .../foo beefd00f [master] .../bar beefd00f [bar] .../bar beefd00f [baz] $ git worktree remove ../bar fatal: validation failed, cannot remove working tree: '.../bar' does not point back to '.git/worktrees/bar' Fix this shortcoming by enhancing "git worktree move" to perform the same additional validation of the destination directory as done by "git worktree add". While at it, add a test to verify that "git worktree move" won't move a worktree atop an existing (non-worktree) path -- a restriction which has always been in place but was never tested.

2020-06-10worktree: prune linked worktree referencing main worktree pathLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-0/+15
"git worktree prune" detects when multiple entries are associated with the same path and prunes the duplicates, however, it does not detect when a linked worktree points at the path of the main worktree. Although "git worktree add" disallows creating a new worktree with the same path as the main worktree, such a case can arise outside the control of Git even without the user mucking with .git/worktree/<id>/ administrative files. For instance: $ git clone foo.git $ git -C foo worktree add ../bar $ rm -rf bar $ mv foo bar $ git -C bar worktree list .../bar deadfeeb [master] .../bar deadfeeb [bar] Help the user recover from such corruption by extending "git worktree prune" to also detect when a linked worktree is associated with the path of the main worktree.

2020-06-10worktree: prune duplicate entries referencing same worktree pathLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-6/+43
A fundamental restriction of linked working trees is that there must only ever be a single worktree associated with a particular path, thus "git worktree add" explicitly disallows creation of a new worktree at the same location as an existing registered worktree. Nevertheless, users can still "shoot themselves in the foot" by mucking with administrative files in .git/worktree/<id>/. Worse, "git worktree move" is careless[1] and allows a worktree to be moved atop a registered but missing worktree (which can happen, for instance, if the worktree is on removable media). For instance: $ git clone foo.git $ cd foo $ git worktree add ../bar $ git worktree add ../baz $ rm -rf ../bar $ git worktree move ../baz ../bar $ git worktree list .../foo beefd00f [master] .../bar beefd00f [bar] .../bar beefd00f [baz] Help users recover from this form of corruption by teaching "git worktree prune" to detect when multiple worktrees are associated with the same path.

2020-06-08worktree: factor out repeated string literalLibravatar Eric Sunshine1-11/+12
For each worktree removed by "git worktree prune", it reports the reason for the removal. All reasons share the common prefix "Removing worktrees/%s:". As new removal reasons are added, this prefix needs to be duplicated, which is error-prone and potentially cumbersome. Therefore, factor out the common prefix. Although this change seems to increase the "sentence lego quotient", it should be reasonably safe, as the reason for removal is a distinct clause, not strictly related to the prefix. Moreover, the "worktrees" in "Removing worktrees/%s:" is a path literal which ought not be localized, so by factoring it out, we can more easily avoid exposing that path fragment to translators.

2020-06-05fetch: allow adding a filter after initial cloneLibravatar Xin Li1-3/+0
Retroactively adding a filter can be useful for existing shallow clones as they allow users to see earlier change histories without downloading all git objects in a regular --unshallow fetch. Without this patch, users can make a clone partial by editing the repository configuration to convert the remote into a promisor, like:   git config core.repositoryFormatVersion 1   git config extensions.partialClone origin   git fetch --unshallow --filter=blob:none origin Since the hard part of making this work is already in place and such edits can be error-prone, teach Git to perform the required configuration change automatically instead.

2020-06-05sparse-checkout: avoid staging deletions of all filesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+4
sparse-checkout's purpose is to update the working tree to have it reflect a subset of the tracked files. As such, it shouldn't be switching branches, making commits, downloading or uploading data, or staging or unstaging changes. Other than updating the worktree, the only thing sparse-checkout should touch is the SKIP_WORKTREE bit of the index. In particular, this sets up a nice invariant: running sparse-checkout will never change the status of any file in `git status` (reflecting the fact that we only set the SKIP_WORKTREE bit if the file is safe to delete, i.e. if the file is unmodified). Traditionally, we did a _really_ bad job with this goal. The predecessor to sparse-checkout involved manual editing of .git/info/sparse-checkout and running `git read-tree -mu HEAD`. That command would stage and unstage changes and overwrite dirty changes in the working tree. The initial implementation of the sparse-checkout command was no better; it simply invoked `git read-tree -mu HEAD` as a subprocess and had the same caveats, though this issue came up repeatedly in review comments and workarounds for the problems were put in place before the feature was merged[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6; especially see 4 & 6]. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BFT9A5n=_bx5LsjCvbogqwSjiwgr5amcjgbU1iAk4KLJg@mail.gmail.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BEmwSwg4tgJg6nVG8a3Hpn_g-=ZjApZF4EiJO+qVgu4uw@mail.gmail.com/ [3] https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BFV7TA0qwZCQpHCqx9N+JifyRyuBQ-pZ_oGfe-NOgyh7A@mail.gmail.com/ [4] https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BHYCCD+Vx5fq35jH82eHc1-P53Lz_aGNpHJNcx9kg2K-A@mail.gmail.com/ [5] https://lore.kernel.org/git/CABPp-BF+JWYZfDqp2Tn4AEKVp4b0YMA=Mbz4Nz62D-gGgiduYQ@mail.gmail.com/ [6] https://lore.kernel.org/git/20191121163706.GV23183@szeder.dev/ However, these workarounds, in addition to disabling the feature in a number of important cases, also missed one special case. I'll get back to it later. In the 2.27.0 cycle, the disabling of the feature was lifted by finally replacing the internal equivalent of `git read-tree -mu HEAD` with something that did what we wanted: the new update_sparsity() function in unpack-trees.c that only ever updates SKIP_WORKTREE bits in the index and updates the working tree to match. This new function handles all the cases that were problematic for the old implementation, except that it breaks the same special case that avoided the workarounds of the old implementation, but broke it in a different way. So...that brings us to the special case: a git clone performed with --no-checkout. As per the meaning of the flag, --no-checkout does not check out any branch, with the implication that you aren't on one and need to switch to one after the clone. Implementationally, HEAD is still set (so in some sense you are partially on a branch), but * the index is "unborn" (non-existent) * there are no files in the working tree (other than .git/) * the next time git switch (or git checkout) is run it will run unpack_trees with `initial_checkout` flag set to true. It is not until you run, e.g. `git switch <somebranch>` that the index will be written and files in the working tree populated. With this special --no-checkout case, the traditional `read-tree -mu HEAD` behavior would have done the equivalent of acting like checkout -- switch to the default branch (HEAD), write out an index that matches HEAD, and update the working tree to match. This special case slipped through the avoid-making-changes checks in the original sparse-checkout command and thus continued there. After update_sparsity() was introduced and used (see commit f56f31af03 ("sparse-checkout: use new update_sparsity() function", 2020-03-27)), the behavior for the --no-checkout case changed: Due to git's auto-vivification of an empty in-memory index (see do_read_index() and note that `must_exist` is false), and due to sparse-checkout's update_working_directory() code to always write out the index after it was done, we got a new bug. That made it so that sparse-checkout would switch the repository from a clone with an "unborn" index (i.e. still needing an initial_checkout), to one that had a recorded index with no entries. Thus, instead of all the files appearing deleted in `git status` being known to git as a special artifact of not yet being on a branch, our recording of an empty index made it suddenly look to git as though it was definitely on a branch with ALL files staged for deletion! A subsequent checkout or switch then had to contend with the fact that it wasn't on an initial_checkout but had a bunch of staged deletions. Make sure that sparse-checkout changes nothing in the index other than the SKIP_WORKTREE bit; in particular, when the index is unborn we do not have any branch checked out so there is no sparsification or de-sparsification work to do. Simply return from update_working_directory() early. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-05-24stateless-connect: send response end packetLibravatar Denton Liu1-1/+1
Currently, remote-curl acts as a proxy and blindly forwards packets between an HTTP server and fetch-pack. In the case of a stateless RPC connection where the connection is terminated before the transaction is complete, remote-curl will blindly forward the packets before waiting on more input from fetch-pack. Meanwhile, fetch-pack will read the transaction and continue reading, expecting more input to continue the transaction. This results in a deadlock between the two processes. This can be seen in the following command which does not terminate: $ git -c protocol.version=2 clone https://github.com/git/git.git --shallow-since=20151012 Cloning into 'git'... whereas the v1 version does terminate as expected: $ git -c protocol.version=1 clone https://github.com/git/git.git --shallow-since=20151012 Cloning into 'git'... fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly Instead of blindly forwarding packets, make remote-curl insert a response end packet after proxying the responses from the remote server when using stateless_connect(). On the RPC client side, ensure that each response ends as described. A separate control packet is chosen because we need to be able to differentiate between what the remote server sends and remote-curl's control packets. By ensuring in the remote-curl code that a server cannot send response end packets, we prevent a malicious server from being able to perform a denial of service attack in which they spoof a response end packet and cause the described deadlock to happen.

2020-05-24checkout: improve error messages for -b with extra argumentLibravatar René Scharfe1-1/+1
When we try to create a branch "foo" based on "origin/master" and give git commit -b an extra unsupported argument "bar", it confusingly reports: $ git checkout -b foo origin/master bar fatal: 'bar' is not a commit and a branch 'foo' cannot be created from it $ git checkout --track -b foo origin/master bar fatal: 'bar' is not a commit and a branch 'foo' cannot be created from it That's wrong, because it very well understands that "origin/master" is supposed to be the start point for the new branch and not "bar". Check if we got a commit and show more fitting messages in that case instead: $ git checkout -b foo origin/master bar fatal: Cannot update paths and switch to branch 'foo' at the same time. $ git checkout --track -b foo origin/master bar fatal: '--track' cannot be used with updating paths Original-patch-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

06f5608c14 (bisect--helper: `bisect_start` shell function partially in C, 2019-01-02) adds a lax parser for `git bisect start` which could result in a segfault under a bad syntax call for start with custom terms. Detect if there are enough arguments left in the command line to use for --term-{old,good,new,bad} and abort with the same syntax error the original implementation will show if not. While at it, remove an unnecessary (and incomplete) check for unknown arguments and make sure to add a test to avoid regressions.

2020-05-21builtin/checkout: simplify metadata initializationLibravatar brian m. carlson1-3/+1
When we call init_checkout_metadata in reset_tree, we want to pass the object ID of the commit in question so that it can be passed to filters, or if there is no commit, the tree. We anticipated this latter case, which can occur elsewhere in the checkout code, but it cannot occur here. The only case in which we do not have a commit object is when invoking git switch with --orphan. Moreover, we can only hit this code path without a commit object additionally with either --force or --discard-changes. In such a case, there is no point initializing the checkout metadata with a commit or tree because (a) there is no commit, only the empty tree, and (b) we will never use the data, since no files will be smudged when checking out a branch with no files. Pass the all-zeros object ID in this case, since we just need some value which is a valid pointer.

2020-05-18commit-graph: drop COMMIT_GRAPH_WRITE_CHECK_OIDS flagLibravatar Taylor Blau1-7/+8
Since 7c5c9b9c57 (commit-graph: error out on invalid commit oids in 'write --stdin-commits', 2019-08-05), the commit-graph builtin dies on receiving non-commit OIDs as input to '--stdin-commits'. This behavior can be cumbersome to work around in, say, the case of piping 'git for-each-ref' to 'git commit-graph write --stdin-commits' if the caller does not want to cull out non-commits themselves. In this situation, it would be ideal if 'git commit-graph write' wrote the graph containing the inputs that did pertain to commits, and silently ignored the remainder of the input. Some options have been proposed to the effect of '--[no-]check-oids' which would allow callers to have the commit-graph builtin do just that. After some discussion, it is difficult to imagine a caller who wouldn't want to pass '--no-check-oids', suggesting that we should get rid of the behavior of complaining about non-commit inputs altogether. If callers do wish to retain this behavior, they can easily work around this change by doing the following: git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname) %(objecttype) %(*objecttype)' | awk ' !/commit/ { print "not-a-commit:"$1 } /commit/ { print $1 } ' | git commit-graph write --stdin-commits To make it so that valid OIDs that refer to non-existent objects are indeed an error after loosening the error handling, perform an extra lookup to make sure that object indeed exists before sending it to the commit-graph internals.
