2016-08-01am: reset cached ident date for each patchLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
When we compute the date to go in author/committer lines of commits, or tagger lines of tags, we get the current date once and then cache it for the rest of the program. This is a good thing in some cases, like "git commit", because it means we do not racily assign different times to the author/committer fields of a single commit object. But as more programs start to make many commits in a single process (e.g., the recently builtin "git am"), it means that you'll get long strings of commits with identical committer timestamps (whereas before, we invoked "git commit" many times and got true timestamps). This patch addresses it by letting callers reset the cached time, which means they'll get a fresh time on their next call to git_committer_info() or git_author_info(). The first caller to do so is "git am", which resets the time for each patch it applies. It would be nice if we could just do this automatically before filling in the ident fields of commit and tag objects. Unfortunately, it's hard to know where a particular logical operation begins and ends. For instance, if commit_tree_extended() were to call reset_ident_date() before getting the committer/author ident, that doesn't quite work; sometimes the author info is passed in to us as a parameter, and it may or may not have come from a previous call to ident_default_date(). So in those cases, we lose the property that the committer and the author timestamp always match. You could similarly put a date-reset at the end of commit_tree_extended(). That actually works in the current code base, but it's fragile. It makes the assumption that after commit_tree_extended() finishes, the caller has no other operations that would logically want to fall into the same timestamp. So instead we provide the tool to easily do the reset, and let the high-level callers use it to annotate their own logical operations. There's no automated test, because it would be inherently racy (it depends on whether the program takes multiple seconds to run). But you can see the effect with something like: # make a fake 100-patch series top=$(git rev-parse HEAD) bottom=$(git rev-list --first-parent -100 HEAD | tail -n 1) git log --format=email --reverse --first-parent \ --binary -m -p $bottom..$top >patch # now apply it; this presumably takes multiple seconds git checkout --detach $bottom git am <patch # now count the number of distinct committer times; # prior to this patch, there would only be one, but # now we'd typically see several. git log --format=%ct $bottom.. | sort -u Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Helped-by: Paul Tan <pyokagan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-07-18blame: allow to blame paths freshly added to the indexLibravatar Mike Hommey1-1/+9
When blaming files, changes in the work tree are taken into account and displayed as being "Not Committed Yet". However, when blaming a file that is not known to the current HEAD, git blame fails with `no such path 'foo' in HEAD`, even when the file was git add'ed. Allowing such a blame is useful when the new file added to the index (not yet committed) was created by renaming an existing file. It also is useful when the new file was created from pieces already in HEAD, moved or copied from other files and blaming with copy detection (i.e. "-C").

2016-07-13fsck: use streaming interface for large blobs in packLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+4
For blobs, we want to make sure the on-disk data is not corrupted (i.e. can be inflated and produce the expected SHA-1). Blob content is opaque, there's nothing else inside to check for. For really large blobs, we may want to avoid unpacking the entire blob in memory, just to check whether it produces the same SHA-1. On 32-bit systems, we may not have enough virtual address space for such memory allocation. And even on 64-bit where it's not a problem, allocating a lot more memory could result in kicking other parts of systems to swap file, generating lots of I/O and slowing everything down. For this particular operation, not unpacking the blob and letting check_sha1_signature, which supports streaming interface, do the job is sufficient. check_sha1_signature() is not shown in the diff, unfortunately. But if will be called when "data_valid && !data" is false. We will call the callback function "fn" with NULL as "data". The only callback of this function is fsck_obj_buffer(), which does not touch "data" at all if it's a blob.

2016-07-13pack-objects: do not truncate result in-pack object size on 32-bit systemsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-7/+8
A typical diff will not show what's going on and you need to see full functions. The core code is like this, at the end of of write_one() e->idx.offset = *offset; size = write_object(f, e, *offset); if (!size) { e->idx.offset = recursing; return WRITE_ONE_BREAK; } written_list[nr_written++] = &e->idx; /* make sure off_t is sufficiently large not to wrap */ if (signed_add_overflows(*offset, size)) die("pack too large for current definition of off_t"); *offset += size; Here we can see that the in-pack object size is returned by write_object (or indirectly by write_reuse_object). And it's used to calculate object offsets, which end up in the pack index file, generated at the end. If "size" overflows (on 32-bit sytems, unsigned long is 32-bit while off_t can be 64-bit), we got wrong offsets and produce incorrect .idx file, which may make it look like the .pack file is corrupted.

Since 47f0b6d5 (Fall back to three-way merge when applying a patch., 2005-10-06), i.e. for almost 11 years already, we used a male form to describe "the other tree". While it was unintended, this gave the erroneous impression as if the Git developers thought of users as male, and were unaware of the important role in software development played by female actors such as Ada Lovelace, Grace Hopper and Margaret Hamilton. In fact, the first professional software developers were all female. Let's change those unfortunate references to the gender neutral "their tree". Doing so also makes the fallback_merge_recursive(), which is an oddball, more in line with the other parts of the system where we contrast what we have vs what we obtain from others by saying "ours" vs "theirs".

We do so by manually inserting "filler" entries into one array, and then copying the other array into the allocated space.

This reverts commit 4d5520053 (grep: make it clear i-t-a entries are ignored, 2015-12-27) and adds an alternative fix to maintain the -L --cached behavior. 4d5520053 caused 'git grep' to no longer find matches in new files in the working tree where the corresponding index entry had the "intent to add" bit set, despite the fact that these files are tracked. The content in the index of a file for which the "intent to add" bit is set is considered indeterminate and not empty. For most grep queries we want these to behave the same, however for -L --cached (files without a match) we don't want to respond positively for "intent to add" files as their contents are indeterminate. This is in contrast to files with empty contents in the index (no lines implies no matches for any grep query expression) which should be reported in the output of a grep -L --cached invocation. Add tests to cover this case and a few related cases which previously lacked coverage.

2016-06-03rev-list: disable bitmaps when "-n" is used with listing objectsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
You can ask rev-list to use bitmaps to speed up an --objects traversal, which should generally give you your answers much faster. Likewise, you can ask rev-list to limit such a traversal with `-n`, in which case we'll show only a limited set of commits (and only the tree and commit objects directly reachable from those commits). But if you do both together, the results are nonsensical. We end up limiting any fallback traversal we do to _find_ the bitmaps, but the actual set of objects we output will be picked arbitrarily from the union of any bitmaps we do find, and will involve the objects of many more commits. It's possible that somebody might want this as a "show me what you can, but limit the amount of work you do" flag. But as with the prior commit clamping "--count", the results are basically non-deterministic; you'll get the values from some commits between `n` and the total number, and you can't tell which. And unlike the `--count` case, we can't easily generate the "real" value from the bitmap values (you can't just walk back `-n` commits and subtract out the reachable objects from the boundary commits; the bitmaps for `X` record its total reachability, so you don't know which objects are directly from `X` itself, which from `X^`, and so on). So let's just fallback to the non-bitmap code path in this case, so we always give a sane answer. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-06-03rev-list: "adjust" results of "--count --use-bitmap-index -n"Libravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
If you ask rev-list for: git rev-list --count --use-bitmap-index HEAD we optimize out the actual traversal and just give you the number of bits set in the commit bitmap. This is faster, which is good. But if you ask to limit the size of the traversal, like: git rev-list --count --use-bitmap-index -n 100 HEAD we'll still output the full bitmapped number we found. On the surface, that might even seem OK. You explicitly asked to use the bitmap index, and it was cheap to compute the real answer, so we gave it to you. But there's something much more complicated going on under the hood. If we don't have a bitmap directly for HEAD, then we have to actually traverse backwards, looking for a bitmapped commit. And _that_ traversal is bounded by our `-n` count. This is a good thing, because it bounds the work we have to do, which is probably what the user wanted by asking for `-n`. But now it makes the output quite confusing. You might get many values: - your `-n` value, if we walked back and never found a bitmap (or fewer if there weren't that many commits) - the actual full count, if we found a bitmap root for every path of our traversal with in the `-n` limit - any number in between! We might have walked back and found _some_ bitmaps, but then cut off the traversal early with some commits not accounted for in the result. So you cannot even see a value higher than your `-n` and say "OK, bitmaps kicked in, this must be the real full count". The only sane thing is for git to just clamp the value to a maximum of the `-n` value, which means we should output the exact same results whether bitmaps are in use or not. The test in t5310 demonstrates this by using `-n 1`. Without this patch we fail in the full-bitmap case (where we do not have to traverse at all) but _not_ in the partial-bitmap case (where we have to walk down to find an actual bitmap). With this patch, both cases just work. I didn't implement the crazy in-between case, just because it's complicated to set up, and is really a subset of the full-count case, which we do cover.

2016-06-01submodule: remove bashism from shell scriptLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+12
Junio pointed out `relative_path` was using bashisms via the local variables. As the longer term goal is to rewrite most of the submodule code in C, do it now. Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
