Many commands that read files that are expected to contain text that is generated (or can be edited) by the end user to control their behaviour (e.g. "git grep -f <filename>") have been updated to be more tolerant to lines that are terminated with CRLF (they used to treat such a line to contain payload that ends with CR, which is usually not what the users expect). * jc/peace-with-crlf: test-sha1-array: read command stream with strbuf_getline() grep: read -f file with strbuf_getline() send-pack: read list of refs with strbuf_getline() column: read lines with strbuf_getline() cat-file: read batch stream with strbuf_getline() transport-helper: read helper response with strbuf_getline() clone/sha1_file: read info/alternates with strbuf_getline() remote.c: read $GIT_DIR/remotes/* with strbuf_getline() ident.c: read /etc/mailname with strbuf_getline() rev-parse: read parseopt spec with strbuf_getline() revision: read --stdin with strbuf_getline() hash-object: read --stdin-paths with strbuf_getline()

2016-01-26tag: do not show ambiguous tag names as "tags/foo"Libravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
Since b7cc53e9 (tag.c: use 'ref-filter' APIs, 2015-07-11), git-tag has started showing tags with ambiguous names (i.e., when both "heads/foo" and "tags/foo" exists) as "tags/foo" instead of just "foo". This is both: - pointless; the output of "git tag" includes only refs/tags, so we know that "foo" means the one in "refs/tags". and - ambiguous; in the original output, we know that the line "foo" means that "refs/tags/foo" exists. In the new output, it is unclear whether we mean "refs/tags/foo" or "refs/tags/tags/foo". The reason this happens is that commit b7cc53e9 switched git-tag to use ref-filter's "%(refname:short)" output formatting, which was adapted from for-each-ref. This more general code does not know that we care only about tags, and uses shorten_unambiguous_ref to get the short-name. We need to tell it that we care only about "refs/tags/", and it should shorten with respect to that value. In theory, the ref-filter code could figure this out by us passing FILTER_REFS_TAGS. But there are two complications there: 1. The handling of refname:short is deep in formatting code that does not even have our ref_filter struct, let alone the arguments to the filter_ref struct. 2. In git v2.7.0, we expose the formatting language to the user. If we follow this path, it will mean that "%(refname:short)" behaves differently for "tag" versus "for-each-ref" (including "for-each-ref refs/tags/"), which can lead to confusion. Instead, let's add a new modifier to the formatting language, "strip", to remove a specific set of prefix components. This fixes "git tag", and lets users invoke the same behavior from their own custom formats (for "tag" or "for-each-ref") while leaving ":short" with its same consistent meaning in all places. We introduce a test in t7004 for "git tag", which fails without this patch. We also add a similar test in t3203 for "git branch", which does not actually fail. But since it is likely that "branch" will eventually use the same formatting code, the test helps defend against future regressions.

2016-01-25clean: make is_git_repository a public functionLibravatar Jeff King1-25/+1
We have always had is_git_directory(), for looking at a specific directory to see if it contains a git repo. In 0179ca7 (clean: improve performance when removing lots of directories, 2015-06-15), we added is_git_repository() which checks for a non-bare repository by looking at its ".git" entry. However, the fix in 0179ca7 needs to be applied other places, too. Let's make this new helper globally available. We need to give it a better name, though, to avoid confusion with is_git_directory(). This patch does that, documents both functions with a comment to reduce confusion, and removes the clean-specific references in the comments.

Some codepaths used fopen(3) when opening a fixed path in $GIT_DIR (e.g. COMMIT_EDITMSG) that is meant to be left after the command is done. This however did not work well if the repository is set to be shared with core.sharedRepository and the umask of the previous user is tighter.

Some "git notes" operations, e.g. "git log --notes=<note>", should be able to read notes from any tree-ish that is shaped like a notes tree, but the notes infrastructure required that the argument must be a ref under refs/notes/. Loosen it to require a valid ref only when the operation would update the notes (in which case we must have a place to store the updated notes tree, iow, a ref). * mh/notes-allow-reading-treeish: notes: allow treeish expressions as notes ref
2016-01-19ls-remote: add support for showing symrefsLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-2/+8
Sometimes it's useful to know the main branch of a git repository without actually downloading the repository. This can be done by looking at the symrefs stored in the remote repository. Currently git doesn't provide a simple way to show the symrefs stored on the remote repository, even though the information is available. Add a --symref command line argument to the ls-remote command, which shows the symrefs in the remote repository. While there, replace a literal tab in the format string with \t to make it more obvious to the reader.

2016-01-19shortlog: don't warn on empty authorLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+0
Git tries to avoid creating a commit with an empty author name or email. However, commits created by older, less strict versions of git may still be in the history. There's not much point in issuing a warning to stderr for an empty author. The user can't do anything about it now, and we are better off to simply include it in the shortlog output as an empty name/email, and let the caller process it however they see fit. Older versions of shortlog differentiated between "author header not present" (which complained) and "author name/email are blank" (which included the empty ident in the output). But since switching to format_commit_message, we complain to stderr about either case (linux.git has a blank author deep in its history which triggers this). We could try to restore the older behavior (complaining only about the missing header), but in retrospect, there's not much point in differentiating these cases. A missing author header is bogus, but as for the "blank" case, the only useful behavior is to add it to the "empty name" collection.

2016-01-19shortlog: optimize out useless string listLibravatar Jeff King1-12/+31
If we are in "--summary" mode, then we do not care about the actual list of subject onelines associated with each author. We care only about the number. So rather than store a string-list for each author full of "<none>", let's just keep a count. This drops my best-of-five for "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on linux.git from: real 0m5.194s user 0m5.028s sys 0m0.168s to: real 0m5.057s user 0m4.916s sys 0m0.144s That's about 2.5%.

2016-01-19shortlog: optimize out useless "<none>" normalizationLibravatar Jeff King1-29/+34
If we are in --summary mode, we will always pass <none> to insert_one_record, which will then do some normalization (e.g., cutting out "[PATCH]"). There's no point in doing so if we aren't going to use the result anyway. This drops my best-of-five for "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on linux.git from: real 0m5.257s user 0m5.104s sys 0m0.156s to: real 0m5.194s user 0m5.028s sys 0m0.168s That's only 1%, but arguably the result is clearer to read, as we're able to group our variable declarations inside the conditional block.

2016-01-19shortlog: optimize "--summary" modeLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+6
If the user asked us only to show counts for each author, rather than the individual summary lines, then there is no point in us generating the summaries only to throw them away. With this patch, I measured the following speedup for "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on linux.git (best-of-five): [before] real 0m5.644s user 0m5.472s sys 0m0.176s [after] real 0m5.257s user 0m5.104s sys 0m0.156s That's only ~7%, but it's so easy to do, there's no good reason not to. We don't have to touch any downstream code, since we already fill in the magic string "<none>" to handle commits without a message.

2016-01-19shortlog: replace hand-parsing of author with pretty-printerLibravatar Jeff King1-36/+26
When gathering the author and oneline subject for each commit, we hand-parse the commit headers to find the "author" line, and then continue past to the blank line at the end of the header. We can replace this tricky hand-parsing by simply asking the pretty-printer for the relevant items. This also decouples the author and oneline parsing, opening up some new optimizations in further commits. One reason to avoid the pretty-printer is that it might be less efficient than hand-parsing. However, I measured no slowdown at all running "git shortlog -ns HEAD" on linux.git. As a bonus, we also fix a memory leak in the (uncommon) case that the author field is blank.

2016-01-19shortlog: use strbufs to read from stdinLibravatar Jeff King1-9/+12
We currently use fixed-size buffers with fgets(), which could lead to incorrect results in the unlikely event that a line had something like "Author:" at exactly its 1024th character.

2016-01-19shortlog: match both "Author:" and "author" on stdinLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+4
The original git-shortlog could read both the normal "git log" output as well as "git log --format=raw". However, when it was converted to C by b8ec592 (Build in shortlog, 2006-10-22), the trailing colon became mandatory, and we no longer matched the raw output. Given the amount of intervening time without any bug reports, it's probable that nobody cares. But it's relatively easy to fix, and the end result is hopefully more readable than the original. Note that this no longer matches "author: ", which we did before, but that has never been a format generated by git.

When working in a cross-platform environment, a user may want to check if text files are stored normalized in the repository and if .gitattributes are set appropriately. Make it possible to let Git show the line endings in the index and in the working tree and the effective text/eol attributes. The end of line ("eolinfo") are shown like this: "-text" binary (or with bare CR) file "none" text file without any EOL "lf" text file with LF "crlf" text file with CRLF "mixed" text file with mixed line endings. The effective text/eol attribute is one of these: "", "-text", "text", "text=auto", "text eol=lf", "text eol=crlf" git ls-files --eol gives an output like this: i/none w/none attr/text=auto t/t5100/empty i/-text w/-text attr/-text t/test-binary-2.png i/lf w/lf attr/text eol=lf t/t5100/rfc2047-info-0007 i/lf w/crlf attr/text eol=crlf doit.bat i/mixed w/mixed attr/ locale/XX.po to show what eol convention is used in the data in the index ('i'), and in the working tree ('w'), and what attribute is in effect, for each path that is shown.

2016-01-15strbuf: introduce strbuf_getline_{lf,nul}()Libravatar Junio C Hamano15-24/+24
The strbuf_getline() interface allows a byte other than LF or NUL as the line terminator, but this is only because I wrote these codepaths anticipating that there might be a value other than NUL and LF that could be useful when I introduced line_termination long time ago. No useful caller that uses other value has emerged. By now, it is clear that the interface is overly broad without a good reason. Many codepaths have hardcoded preference to read either LF terminated or NUL terminated records from their input, and then call strbuf_getline() with LF or NUL as the third parameter. This step introduces two thin wrappers around strbuf_getline(), namely, strbuf_getline_lf() and strbuf_getline_nul(), and mechanically rewrites these call sites to call either one of them. The changes contained in this patch are: * introduction of these two functions in strbuf.[ch] * mechanical conversion of all callers to strbuf_getline() with either '\n' or '\0' as the third parameter to instead call the respective thin wrapper. After this step, output from "git grep 'strbuf_getline('" would become a lot smaller. An interim goal of this series is to make this an empty set, so that we can have strbuf_getline_crlf() take over the shorter name strbuf_getline(). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Often we read "text" files that are supplied by the end user (e.g. commit log message that was edited with $GIT_EDITOR upon 'git commit -e'), and in some environments lines in a text file are terminated with CRLF. Existing strbuf_getline() knows to read a single line and then strip the terminating byte from the result, but it is handy to have a version that is more tailored for a "text" input that takes both '\n' and '\r\n' as line terminator (aka <newline> in POSIX lingo) and returns the body of the line after stripping <newline>. Recently reimplemented "git am" uses such a function implemented privately; move it to strbuf.[ch] and make it available for others. Note that we do not blindly replace calls to strbuf_getline() that uses LF as the line terminator with calls to strbuf_getline_crlf() and this is very much deliberate. Some callers may want to treat an incoming line that ends with CR (and terminated with LF) to have a payload that includes the final CR, and such a blind replacement will result in misconversion when done without code audit.
