2017-03-08real_pathdup(): fix callsites that wanted it to die on errorLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-3/+3
In 4ac9006f832 (real_path: have callers use real_pathdup and strbuf_realpath, 2016-12-12), we changed the xstrdup(real_path()) pattern to use real_pathdup() directly. The problem with this change is that real_path() calls strbuf_realpath() with die_on_error = 1 while real_pathdup() calls it with die_on_error = 0. Meaning that in cases where real_path() causes Git to die() with an error message, real_pathdup() is silent and returns NULL instead. The callers, however, are ill-prepared for that change, as they expect the return value to be non-NULL (and otherwise the function died with an appropriate error message). Fix this by extending real_pathdup()'s signature to accept the die_on_error flag and simply pass it through to strbuf_realpath(), and then adjust all callers after a careful audit whether they would handle NULLs well.

2017-03-07receive-pack: fix deadlock when we cannot create tmpdirLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+4
The err_fd descriptor passed to the unpack() function is intended to be handed off to the child index-pack, and our async muxer will read until it gets EOF. However, if we encounter an error before handing off the descriptor, we must manually close(err_fd). Otherwise we will be waiting for our muxer to finish, while the muxer is waiting for EOF on err_fd. We fixed an identical deadlock already in 49ecfa13f (receive-pack: close sideband fd on early pack errors, 2013-04-19). But since then, the function grew a new early-return in 722ff7f87 (receive-pack: quarantine objects until pre-receive accepts, 2016-10-03), when we fail to create a temporary directory. This return needs the same treatment. Reported-by: Horst Schirmeier <horst@schirmeier.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-02-21remote: ignore failure to remove missing branch.<name>.mergeLibravatar Ross Lagerwall1-1/+3
It is not all too unusual for a branch to use "branch.<name>.remote" without "branch.<name>.merge". You may be using the 'push.default' configuration set to 'current', for example, and do $ git checkout -b side colleague/side $ git config branch.side.remote colleague However, "git remote rm" to remove the remote used in such a manner fails with "fatal: could not unset 'branch.<name>.merge'" because it assumes that a branch that has .remote defined must also have .merge defined.

2017-02-14grep: treat revs the same for --untracked as for --no-indexLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+5
git-grep has always disallowed grepping in a tree (as opposed to the working directory) with both --untracked and --no-index. But we traditionally did so by first collecting the revs, and then complaining when any were provided. The --no-index option recently learned to detect revs much earlier. This has two user-visible effects: - we don't bother to resolve revision names at all. So when there's a rev/path ambiguity, we always choose to treat it as a path. - likewise, when you do specify a revision without "--", the error you get is "no such path" and not "--untracked cannot be used with revs". The rationale for doing this with --no-index is that it is meant to be used outside a repository, and so parsing revs at all does not make sense. This patch gives --untracked the same treatment. While it _is_ meant to be used in a repository, it is explicitly about grepping the non-repository contents. Telling the user "we found a rev, but you are not allowed to use revs" is not really helpful compared to "we treated your argument as a path, and could not find it".

2017-02-14show-branch: store resolved head in heap bufferLibravatar Jeff King1-14/+5
We resolve HEAD and copy the result to a fixed-size buffer with memcpy, never checking that it actually fits. This bug dates back to 8098a178b (Add git-symbolic-ref, 2005-09-30). Before that we used readlink(), which took a maximum buffer size. We can fix this by using resolve_refdup(), which duplicates the buffer on the heap. That also lets us just check for a NULL pointer to see if we have resolved HEAD, and drop the extra head_p variable.

2017-02-14grep: do not diagnose misspelt revs with --no-indexLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
If we are using --no-index, then our arguments cannot be revs in the first place. Not only is it pointless to diagnose them, but if we are not in a repository, we should not be trying to resolve any names. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-02-14grep: avoid resolving revision names in --no-index caseLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
We disallow the use of revisions with --no-index, but we don't actually check and complain until well after we've parsed the revisions. This is the cause of a few problems: 1. We shouldn't be calling get_sha1() at all when we aren't in a repository, as it might access the ref or object databases. For now, this should generally just return failure, but eventually it will become a BUG(). 2. When there's a "--" disambiguator and you're outside a repository, we'll complain early with "unable to resolve revision". But we can give a much more specific error. 3. When there isn't a "--" disambiguator, we still do the normal rev/path checks. This is silly, as we know we cannot have any revs with --no-index. Everything we see must be a path. Outside of a repository this doesn't matter (since we know it won't resolve), but inside one, we may complain unnecessarily if a filename happens to also match a refname. This patch skips the get_sha1() call entirely in the no-index case, and behaves as if it failed (with the exception of giving a better error message).

2017-02-14grep: fix "--" rev/pathspec disambiguationLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+24
If we see "git grep pattern rev -- file" then we apply the usual rev/pathspec disambiguation rules: any "rev" before the "--" must be a revision, and we do not need to apply the verify_non_filename() check. But there are two bugs here: 1. We keep a seen_dashdash flag to handle this case, but we set it in the same left-to-right pass over the arguments in which we parse "rev". So when we see "rev", we do not yet know that there is a "--", and we mistakenly complain if there is a matching file. We can fix this by making a preliminary pass over the arguments to find the "--", and only then checking the rev arguments. 2. If we can't resolve "rev" but there isn't a dashdash, that's OK. We treat it like a path, and complain later if it doesn't exist. But if there _is_ a dashdash, then we know it must be a rev, and should treat it as such, complaining if it does not resolve. The current code instead ignores it and tries to treat it like a path. This patch fixes both bugs, and tries to comment the parsing flow a bit better. It adds tests that cover the two bugs, but also some related situations (which already worked, but this confirms that our fixes did not break anything).

2017-02-14grep: re-order rev-parsing loopLibravatar Jeff King1-9/+11
We loop over the arguments, but every branch of the loop hits either a "continue" or a "break". Surely we can make this simpler. The final conditional is: if (arg is a rev) { ... handle rev ... continue; } break; We can rewrite this as: if (arg is not a rev) break; ... handle rev ... That makes the flow a little bit simpler, and will make things much easier to follow when we add more logic in future patches.

2017-02-14grep: do not unnecessarily query repo for "--"Libravatar Jonathan Tan1-4/+5
When running a command of the form git grep --no-index pattern -- path in the absence of a Git repository, an error message will be printed: fatal: BUG: setup_git_env called without repository This is because "git grep" tries to interpret "--" as a rev. "git grep" has always tried to first interpret "--" as a rev for at least a few years, but this issue was upgraded from a pessimization to a bug in commit 59332d1 ("Resurrect "git grep --no-index"", 2010-02-06), which calls get_sha1 regardless of whether --no-index was specified. This bug appeared to be benign until commit b1ef400 ("setup_git_env: avoid blind fall-back to ".git"", 2016-10-20) when Git was taught to die in this situation. (This "git grep" bug appears to be one of the bugs that commit b1ef400 is meant to flush out.) Therefore, always interpret "--" as signaling the end of options, instead of trying to interpret it as a rev first.

2017-02-14grep: move thread initialization a little lowerLibravatar Jeff King1-14/+14
Originally, we set up the threads for grep before parsing the non-option arguments. In 53b8d931b (grep: disable threading in non-worktree case, 2011-12-12), the thread code got bumped lower in the function because it now needed to know whether we got any revision arguments. That put a big block of code in between the parsing of revs and the parsing of pathspecs, both of which share some loop variables. That makes it harder to read the code than the original, where the shared loops were right next to each other. Let's bump the thread initialization until after all of the parsing is done.

2017-02-13gc: ignore old gc.log filesLibravatar David Turner1-7/+50
A server can end up in a state where there are lots of unreferenced loose objects (say, because many users are doing a bunch of rebasing and pushing their rebased branches). Running "git gc --auto" in this state would cause a gc.log file to be created, preventing future auto gcs, causing pack files to pile up. Since many git operations are O(n) in the number of pack files, this would lead to poor performance. Git should never get itself into a state where it refuses to do any maintenance, just because at some point some piece of the maintenance didn't make progress. Teach Git to ignore gc.log files which are older than (by default) one day old, which can be tweaked via the gc.logExpiry configuration variable. That way, these pack files will get cleaned up, if necessary, at least once per day. And operators who find a need for more-frequent gcs can adjust gc.logExpiry to meet their needs. There is also some cleanup: a successful manual gc, or a warning-free auto gc with an old log file, will remove any old gc.log files. It might still happen that manual intervention is required (e.g. because the repo is corrupt), but at the very least it won't be because Git is too dumb to try again.

prune_cache() first identifies those entries at the start of the sorted array that can be discarded. Then it moves the rest of the entries up. Last it identifies the unwanted trailing entries among the moved ones and cuts them off.

2017-01-31refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = alwaysLibravatar Cornelius Weig2-5/+8
When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old history immediately). However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than the performance implications of keeping the log around. This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).
