2017-08-02rev-list: don't show usage when we see empty ref patternsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
If the user gives us no starting point for a traversal, we want to complain with our normal usage message. But if they tried to do so with "--all" or "--glob", but that happened not to match any refs, the usage message isn't helpful. We should just give them the empty output they asked for instead.

2017-07-18Merge branch 'jk/gc-pre-detach-under-hook'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
We run an early part of "git gc" that deals with refs before daemonising (and not under lock) even when running a background auto-gc, which caused multiple gc processes attempting to run the early part at the same time. This is now prevented by running the early part also under the GC lock. * jk/gc-pre-detach-under-hook: gc: run pre-detach operations under lock

2017-07-12gc: run pre-detach operations under lockLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+4
We normally try to avoid having two auto-gc operations run at the same time, because it wastes resources. This was done long ago in 64a99eb47 (gc: reject if another gc is running, unless --force is given, 2013-08-08). When we do a detached auto-gc, we run the ref-related commands _before_ detaching, to avoid confusing lock contention. This was done by 62aad1849 (gc --auto: do not lock refs in the background, 2014-05-25). These two features do not interact well. The pre-detach operations are run before we check the gc.pid lock, meaning that on a busy repository we may run many of them concurrently. Ideally we'd take the lock before spawning any operations, and hold it for the duration of the program. This is tricky, though, with the way the pid-file interacts with the daemonize() process. Other processes will check that the pid recorded in the pid-file still exists. But detaching causes us to fork and continue running under a new pid. So if we take the lock before detaching, the pid-file will have a bogus pid in it. We'd have to go back and update it with the new pid after detaching. We'd also have to play some tricks with the tempfile subsystem to tweak the "owner" field, so that the parent process does not clean it up on exit, but the child process does. Instead, we can do something a bit simpler: take the lock only for the duration of the pre-detach work, then detach, then take it again for the post-detach work. Technically, this means that the post-detach lock could lose to another process doing pre-detach work. But in the long run this works out. That second process would then follow-up by doing post-detach work. Unless it was in turn blocked by a third process doing pre-detach work, and so on. This could in theory go on indefinitely, as the pre-detach work does not repack, and so need_to_gc() will continue to trigger. But in each round we are racing between the pre- and post-detach locks. Eventually, one of the post-detach locks will win the race and complete the full gc. So in the worst case, we may racily repeat the pre-detach work, but we would never do so simultaneously (it would happen via a sequence of serialized race-wins).

2017-07-09branch: set remote color in ref-filter branch immediatelyLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+6
We set the current and local branch colors at the top of the build_format() function. Let's do the same for the remote color.

2017-07-09branch: use BRANCH_COLOR_LOCAL in ref-filter formatLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+3
Since 949af0684 (branch: use ref-filter printing APIs, 2017-01-10), git-branch's output is generated by passing a custom format to the ref-filter code. This format forgot to pass BRANCH_COLOR_LOCAL, meaning that local branches (besides the current one) were never colored at all. We can add it in the %(if) block where we decide whether the branch is "current" or merely "local". Note that this means the current/local coloring is either/or. You can't set: [color "branch"] local = blue current = bold and expect the current branch to be "bold blue". This matches the pre-949af0684 behavior.

2017-07-09branch: only perform HEAD check for local branchesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
When assembling the ref-filter format to show "git branch" output, we put the "%(if)%(HEAD)" conditional at the start of the overall format. But there's no point in checking whether a remote branch matches HEAD, as it never will. The check should go inside the local conditional; we assemble that format inside the "local" strbuf. By itself, this is just a minor optimization. But in a future patch, we'll need this refactoring to fix local-branch coloring.

2017-06-30hashmap.h: compare function has access to a data fieldLibravatar Stefan Beller3-15/+24
When using the hashmap a common need is to have access to caller provided data in the compare function. A couple of times we abuse the keydata field to pass in the data needed. This happens for example in patch-ids.c. This patch changes the function signature of the compare function to have one more void pointer available. The pointer given for each invocation of the compare function must be defined in the init function of the hashmap and is just passed through. Documentation of this new feature is deferred to a later patch. This is a rather mechanical conversion, just adding the new pass-through parameter. However while at it improve the naming of the fields of all compare functions used by hashmaps by ensuring unused parameters are prefixed with 'unused_' and naming the parameters what they are (instead of 'unused' make it 'unused_keydata').

2017-06-30grep: remove regflags from the public grep_opt APILibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-2/+0
Refactor calls to the grep machinery to always pass opt.ignore_case & opt.extended_regexp_option instead of setting the equivalent regflags bits. The bug fixed when making -i work with -P in commit 9e3cbc59d5 ("log: make --regexp-ignore-case work with --perl-regexp", 2017-05-20) was really just plastering over the code smell which this change fixes. The reason for adding the extensive commentary here is that I discovered some subtle complexity in implementing this that really should be called out explicitly to future readers. Before this change we'd rely on the difference between `extended_regexp_option` and `regflags` to serve as a membrane between our preliminary parsing of grep.extendedRegexp and grep.patternType, and what we decided to do internally. Now that those two are the same thing, it's necessary to unset `extended_regexp_option` just before we commit in cases where both of those config variables are set. See 84befcd0a4 ("grep: add a grep.patternType configuration setting", 2012-08-03) for the code and documentation related to that. The explanation of why the if/else branches in grep_commit_pattern_type() are ordered the way they are exists in that commit message, but I think it's worth calling this subtlety out explicitly with a comment for future readers. Even though grep_commit_pattern_type() is the only caller of grep_set_pattern_type_option() it's simpler to reset the extended_regexp_option flag in the latter, since 2/3 branches in the former would otherwise need to reset it, this way we can do it in one place.

The check for the default was introduced with 88a21979c5 (fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessary, 2011-03-06), which replaced an older construct (builtin/fetchs own implementation of the super-prefix) introduced in be254a0ea9 (Add the 'fetch.recurseSubmodules' config setting, 2010-11-11) which made sense at the time as there was no default fetch option for submodules at the time. Set builtin/fetch.c#recurse_submodules_default to the same value as submodule.c#config_fetch_recurse_submodules which is set via set_config_fetch_recurse_submodules, such that the condition for checking whether we have to set the default value becomes unnecessary.

2017-06-23pull: optionally rebase submodules (remote submodule changes only)Libravatar Stefan Beller1-10/+63
Teach pull to optionally update submodules when '--recurse-submodules' is provided. This will teach pull to run 'submodule update --rebase' when the '--recurse-submodules' and '--rebase' flags are given under specific circumstances. On a rebase workflow: ===================== 1. Both sides change the submodule ------------------------------ Let's assume the following history in a submodule: H---I---J---K---L local branch \ M---N---O---P remote branch and the following in the superproject (recorded submodule in parens): A(H)---B(I)---F(K)---G(L) local branch \ C(N)---D(N)---E(P) remote branch In an ideal world this would rebase the submodule and rewrite the submodule pointers that the superproject points at such that the superproject looks like A(H)---B(I) F(K')---G(L') rebased branch \ / C(N)---D(N)---E(P) remote branch and the submodule as: J---K---L (old dangeling tip) / H---I J'---K'---L' rebased branch \ / M---N---O---P remote branch And if a conflict arises in the submodule the superproject rebase would stop at that commit at which the submodule conflict occurs. Currently a "pull --rebase" in the superproject produces a merge conflict as the submodule pointer changes are conflicting and cannot be resolved. 2. Local submodule changes only ----------------------- Assuming histories as above, except that the remote branch would not contain submodule changes, then a result as A(H)---B(I) F(K)---G(L) rebased branch \ / C(I)---D(I)---E(I) remote branch is desire-able. This is what currently happens in rebase. If the recursive flag is given, the ideal git would produce a superproject as: A(H)---B(I) F(K')---G(L') rebased branch (incl. sub rebase!) \ / C(I)---D(I)---E(I) remote branch and the submodule as: J---K---L (old dangeling tip) / H---I J'---K'---L' locally rebased branch \ / M---N---O---P advanced branch This patch doesn't address this issue, however a test is added that this fails up front. 3. Remote submodule changes only ---------------------- Assuming histories as in (1) except that the local superproject branch would not have touched the submodule the rebase already works out in the superproject with no conflicts: A(H)---B(I) F(P)---G(P) rebased branch (no sub changes) \ / C(N)---D(N)---E(P) remote branch The recurse flag as presented in this patch would additionally update the submodule as: H---I J'---K'---L' rebased branch \ / M---N---O---P remote branch As neither J, K, L nor J', K', L' are referred to from the superproject, no rewriting of the superproject commits is required. Conclusion for 'pull --rebase --recursive' ----------------------------------------- If there are no local superproject changes it is sufficient to call "submodule update --rebase" as this produces the desired results. In case of conflicts, the behavior is the same as in 'submodule update --recursive' which is assumed to be sane. This patch implements (3) only. On a merge workflow: ==================== We'll start off with the same underlying DAG as in (1) in the rebase workflow. So in an ideal world a 'pull --merge --recursive' would produce this: H---I---J---K---L----X \ / M---N---O---P with X as the new merge-commit in the submodule and the superproject as: A(H)---B(I)---F(K)---G(L)---Y(X) \ / C(N)---D(N)---E(P) However modifying the submodules on the fly is not supported in git-merge such that Y(X) is not easy to produce in a single patch. In fact git-merge doesn't know about submodules at all. However when at least one side does not contain commits touching the submodule at all, then we do not need to perform the merge for the submodule but a fast-forward can be done via checking out either L or P in the submodule. This strategy is implemented in 68d03e4a6e (Implement automatic fast-forward merge for submodules, 2010-07-07) already, so to align with the rebase behavior we need to also update the worktree of the submodule.

2017-06-23builtin/fetch: parse recurse-submodules-default at default options parsingLibravatar Stefan Beller1-9/+10
Instead of just storing the string and then later calling our own parsing function 'parse_fetch_recurse_submodules_arg', make use of the function callback 'option_fetch_parse_recurse_submodules' that was introduced in the last patch. Also move all submodule recursing variables in one spot at the top of the file. Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2017-06-21status: contextually notify user about an initial commitLibravatar Kaartic Sivaraam1-0/+1
The existing message, "Initial commit", makes sense for the commit template notifying users that it's their initial commit, but is confusing when merely checking the status of a fresh repository (or orphan branch) without having any commits yet. Change the output of "status" to say "No commits yet" when "git status" is run on a fresh repo (or orphan branch), while retaining the current "Initial commit" message displayed in the template that's displayed in the editor when the initial commit is being authored. Correspondingly change the output of "short status" to "No commits yet on " when "git status -sb" is run on a fresh repo (or orphan branch). A few alternatives considered were, * Waiting for initial commit * Your current branch does not have any commits * Current branch waiting for initial commit The most succint one among the alternatives was chosen.

2017-06-21sha1_file: rename LOOKUP_REPLACE_OBJECTLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-2/+3
The LOOKUP_REPLACE_OBJECT flag controls whether the lookup_replace_object() function is invoked by sha1_object_info_extended(), read_sha1_file_extended(), and lookup_replace_object_extended(), but it is not immediately clear which functions accept that flag. Therefore restrict this flag to only sha1_object_info_extended(), renaming it appropriately to OBJECT_INFO_LOOKUP_REPLACE and adding some documentation. Update read_sha1_file_extended() to have a boolean parameter instead, and delete lookup_replace_object_extended(). parse_sha1_header() also passes this flag to parse_sha1_header_extended() since commit 46f0344 ("sha1_file: support reading from a loose object of unknown type", 2015-05-03), but that has had no effect since that commit. Therefore this patch also removes this flag from that invocation. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
