2017-08-11Merge branch 'ma/pager-per-subcommand-action'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this, and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default. * ma/pager-per-subcommand-action: git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as dashed external tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on" tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only t7006: add tests for how git tag paginates git.c: provide setup_auto_pager() git.c: let builtins opt for handling `pager.foo` themselves builtin.h: take over documentation from api-builtin.txt

2017-08-11Merge branch 'sb/hashmap-cleanup'Libravatar Junio C Hamano2-18/+28
Many uses of comparision callback function the hashmap API uses cast the callback function type when registering it to hashmap_init(), which defeats the compile time type checking when the callback interface changes (e.g. gaining more parameters).

2017-08-03tag: change default of `pager.tag` to "on"Libravatar Martin Ågren1-1/+1
The previous patch taught `git tag` to only respect `pager.tag` in list-mode. That patch left the default value of `pager.tag` at "off". After that patch, it makes sense to let the default value be "on" instead, since it will help with listing many tags, but will not hurt users of `git tag -a` as it would have before. Make that change. Update documentation and tests. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-08-03tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode onlyLibravatar Martin Ågren1-0/+3
Using, e.g., `git -c pager.tag tag -a new-tag` results in errors such as "Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal" and a garbled terminal. Someone who makes use of both `git tag -a` and `git tag -l` will probably not set `pager.tag`, so that `git tag -a` will actually work, at the cost of not paging output of `git tag -l`. Use the mechanisms introduced in two earlier patches to ignore `pager.tag` in git.c and let the `git tag` builtin handle it on its own. Only respect `pager.tag` when running in list-mode. There is a window between where the pager is started before and after this patch. This means that early errors can behave slightly different before and after this patch. Since operation-parsing has to happen inside this window, this can be seen with `git -c pager.tag="echo pager is used" tag -l --unknown-option`. This change in paging-behavior should be acceptable since it only affects erroneous usages. Update the documentation and update tests. If an alias is used to run `git tag -a`, then `pager.tag` will still be respected. Document this known breakage. It will be fixed in a later commit. Add a similar test for `-l`, which works.

2017-07-21run_processes_parallel: change confusing task_cb conventionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
By declaring the task_cb parameter of type `void **`, the signature of the get_next_task method suggests that the "task-specific cookie" can be defined in that method, and the signatures of the start_failure and of the task_finished methods declare that parameter of type `void *`, suggesting that those methods are mere users of said cookie. That convention makes a total lot of sense, because the tasks are pretty much dead when one of the latter two methods is called: there would be little use to reset that cookie at that point because nobody would be able to see the change afterwards. However, this is not what the code actually does. For all three methods, it passes the *address* of pp->children[i].data. As reasoned above, this behavior makes no sense. So let's change the implementation to adhere to the convention suggested by the signatures.

2017-07-20fsck: remove redundant parse_tree() invocationLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-12/+1
If obj->type == OBJ_TREE, an invocation of fsck_walk() will invoke parse_tree() and return quickly if that returns nonzero, so it is of no use for traverse_one_object() to invoke parse_tree() in this situation before invoking fsck_walk(). Remove that code. The behavior of traverse_one_object() is changed slightly in that it now returns -1 instead of 1 in the case that parse_tree() fails, but this is not an issue because its only caller (traverse_reachable) does not care about the value as long as it is nonzero. This code was introduced in commit 271b8d2 ("builtin-fsck: move away from object-refs to fsck_walk", 2008-02-25). The same issue existed in that commit.

2017-07-20pack-objects: remove unnecessary NULL checkLibravatar René Scharfe1-1/+1
If done_pbase_paths is NULL then done_pbase_paths_num must be zero and done_pbase_path_pos() returns -1 without accessing the array, so the check is not necessary. If the invariant was violated then the check would make sure we keep on going and allocate the necessary amount of memory in the next ALLOC_GROW call. That sounds nice, but all array entries except for one would contain garbage data. If the invariant was violated without the check we'd get a segfault in done_pbase_path_pos(), i.e. an observable crash, alerting us of the presence of a bug. Currently there is no such bug: Only the functions check_pbase_path() and cleanup_preferred_base() change pointer and counter, and both make sure to keep them in sync. Get rid of the check anyway to allow us to see if later changes introduce such a defect, and to simplify the code. Detected by Coverity Scan.

This is another test balloon to see if we get complaints from people whose compilers do not support designated initializer for arrays.

2017-07-13ref-filter: consult want_color() before emitting colorsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
When color placeholders like %(color:red) are used in a ref-filter format, we unconditionally output the colors, even if the user has asked us for no colors. This usually isn't a problem when the user is constructing a --format on the command line, but it means we may do the wrong thing when the format is fed from a script or alias. For example: $ git config alias.b 'branch --format=%(color:green)%(refname)' $ git b --no-color should probably omit the green color. Likewise, running: $ git b >branches should probably also omit the color, just as we would for all baked-in coloring (and as we recently started to do for user-specified colors in --pretty formats). This commit makes both of those cases work by teaching the ref-filter code to consult want_color() before outputting any color. The color flag in ref_format defaults to "-1", which means we'll consult color.ui, which in turn defaults to the usual isatty() check on stdout. However, callers like git-branch which support their own color config (and command-line options) can override that. The new tests independently cover all three of the callers of ref-filter (for-each-ref, tag, and branch). Even though these seem redundant, it confirms that we've correctly plumbed through all of the necessary config to make colors work by default.

2017-07-13rev-list: pass diffopt->use_colors through to pretty-printLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
When rev-list pretty-prints a commit, it creates a new pretty_print_context and copies items from the rev_info struct. We don't currently copy the "use_color" field, though. Nobody seems to have noticed because the only part of pretty.c that cares is the %C(auto,...) placeholder, and presumably not many people use that with the rev-list plumbing (as opposed to with git-log). It will become more noticeable in a future patch, though, when we start treating all user-format colors as auto-colors (in which case it would become impossible to format colors with rev-list, even with --color=always).

2017-07-13for-each-ref: load config earlierLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+2
In most commands we load config before parsing command line options, since it lets the latter override the former with a simple variable assignment. In the case of for-each-ref, though, we do it in the reverse order. This is OK with the current code, since there's no interaction between the config and command-line options. However, as the ref-filter code starts to care about config during verify_ref_format(), we'll want to make sure the config is loaded. Let's bump the config to the usual spot near the top of the function. We can drop the comment there; it's impossible to keep a "why we load the config" comment like this up to date with every config option we might be interested in. And indeed, it's already stale; we'd care about core.abbrev, for instance, when %(objectname:short) is used. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-07-13color: check color.ui in git_default_config()Libravatar Jeff King4-5/+4
Back in prehistoric times, our decision on whether or not to show color by default relied on using a config callback that either did or didn't load color config like color.diff. When we introduced color.ui, we put it in the same boat: commands had to manually respect it by using git_color_config() or its git_color_default_config() convenience wrapper. But in 4c7f1819b (make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), that changed. Since then, we default color.ui to auto in all programs, meaning that even plumbing commands like "git diff-tree --pretty" might colorize the output. Nobody seems to have complained in the intervening years, presumably because the "is stdout a tty" check does a good job of catching the right cases. But that leaves an interesting curiosity: color.ui defaults to auto even in plumbing, but you can't actually _disable_ the color via config. So if you really hate color and set "color.ui" to false, diff-tree will still show color (but porcelain like git-diff won't). Nobody noticed that either, probably because very few people disable color. One could argue that the plumbing should _always_ disable color unless an explicit --color option is given on the command line. But in practice, this creates a lot of complications for scripts which do want plumbing to show user-visible output. They can't just pass "--color" blindly; they need to check the user's config and decide what to send. Given that nobody has complained about the current behavior, let's assume it's a good path, and follow it to its conclusion: supporting color.ui everywhere. Note that you can create havoc by setting color.ui=always in your config, but that's more or less already the case. We could disallow it entirely, but it is handy for one-offs like: git -c color.ui=always foo >not-a-tty when "foo" does not take a --color option itself.

2017-07-13ref-filter: provide a function for parsing sort optionsLibravatar Jeff King1-25/+1
The ref-filter module currently provides a callback suitable for parsing command-line --sort options. But since git-tag also supports the tag.sort config option, it needs a function whose implementation is quite similar, but with a slightly different interface. The end result is that builtin/tag.c has a copy-paste of parse_opt_ref_sorting(). Instead, let's provide a function to parse an arbitrary sort string, which we can then trivially wrap to make the parse_opt variant.

2017-07-13ref-filter: abstract ref format into its own structLibravatar Jeff King4-37/+41
The ref-filter module provides routines for formatting a ref for output. The fundamental interface for the format is a "const char *" containing the format, and any additional options need to be passed to each invocation of show_ref_array_item. Instead, let's make a ref_format struct that holds the format, along with any associated format options. That will make some enhancements easier in the future: 1. new formatting options can be added without disrupting existing callers 2. some state can be carried in the struct rather than as global variables For now this just has the text format itself along with the quote_style option, but we'll add more fields in future patches.

2017-07-13check return value of verify_ref_format()Libravatar Jeff King3-5/+10
Users of the ref-filter code must call verify_ref_format() before formatting any refs, but most ignore its return value. This means we may print an error on a syntactically bogus pattern, but keep going anyway. In most cases this results in a fatal error when we actually try to format a ref. But if you have no refs to show at all, then the behavior is confusing: git prints the error from verify_ref_format(), then exits with code 0 without showing any output. Let's instead abort immediately if we know we have a bogus format. We'll output the usage information if we have it handy (just like the existing call in cmd_for_each_ref() does), and otherwise just die().
