2012-09-30mailinfo: don't require "text" mime type for attachmentsLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-11/+0
Currently "git am" does insane things if the mbox it is given contains attachments with a MIME type that aren't "text/*". In particular, it will still decode them, and pass them "one line at a time" to the mail body filter, but because it has determined that they aren't text (without actually looking at the contents, just at the mime type) the "line" will be the encoding line (eg 'base64') rather than a line of *content*. Which then will cause the text filtering to fail, because we won't correctly notice when the attachment text switches from the commit message to the actual patch. Resulting in a patch failure, even if patch may be a perfectly well-formed attachment, it's just that the message type may be (for example) "application/octet-stream" instead of "text/plain". Just remove all the bogus games with the message_type. The only difference that code creates is how the data is passed to the filter function (chunked per-pred-code line or per post-decode line), and that difference is *wrong*, since chunking things per pre-decode line can never be a sensible operation, and cannot possibly matter for binary data anyway. This code goes all the way back to March of 2007, in commit 87ab79923463 ("builtin-mailinfo.c infrastrcture changes"), and apparently Don used to pass random mbox contents to git. However, the pre-decode vs post-decode logic really shouldn't matter even for that case, and more importantly, "I fed git am crap" is not a valid reason to break *real* patch attachments. If somebody really cares, and determines that some attachment is binary data (by looking at the data, not the MIME-type), the whole attachment should be dismissed, rather than fed in random-sized chunks to "handle_filter()".

2012-09-21receive-pack: send pack-processing stderr over sidebandLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+24
Receive-pack invokes either unpack-objects or index-pack to handle the incoming pack. However, we do not redirect the stderr of the sub-processes at all, so it is never seen by the client. From the initial thread adding sideband support, which is here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/139471 it is clear that some messages are specifically kept off the sideband (with the assumption that they are of interest only to an administrator, not the client). The stderr of the subprocesses is mentioned in the thread, but it's unclear if they are included in that group, or were simply forgotten. However, there are a few good reasons to show them to the client: 1. In many cases, they are directly about the incoming packfile (e.g., fsck warnings with --strict, corruption in the packfile, etc). Without these messages, the client just gets "unpacker error" with no extra useful diagnosis. 2. No matter what the cause, we are probably better off showing the errors to the client. If the client and the server admin are not the same entity, it is probably much easier for the client to cut-and-paste the errors they see than for the admin to try to dig them out of a log and correlate them with a particular session. 3. Users of the ssh transport typically already see these stderr messages, as the remote's stderr is copied literally by ssh. This brings other transports (http, and push-over-git if you are crazy enough to enable it) more in line with ssh. As a bonus for ssh users, because the messages are now fed through the sideband and printed by the local git, they will have "remote:" prepended and be properly interleaved with any local output to stderr.

2012-09-20clone --single: limit the fetch refspec to fetched branchLibravatar Ralf Thielow1-14/+51
After running "git clone --single", the resulting repository has the usual default "+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*" wildcard fetch refspec installed, which means that a subsequent "git fetch" will end up grabbing all the other branches. Update the fetch refspec to cover only the singly cloned ref instead to correct this. That means: If "--single" is used without "--branch" or "--mirror", the fetch refspec covers the branch on which remote's HEAD points to. If "--single" is used with "--branch", it'll cover only the branch specified in the "--branch" option. If "--single" is combined with "--mirror", then it'll cover all refs of the cloned repository. If "--single" is used with "--branch" that specifies a tag, then it'll cover only the ref for this tag.

2012-09-14grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse treeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
Our "grep" allows complex boolean expressions to be formed to match each individual line with operators like --and, '(', ')' and --not. Introduce the "--debug" option to show the parse tree to help people who want to debug and enhance it. Also "log" learns "--grep-debug" option to do the same. The command line parser to the log family is a lot more limited than the general "git grep" parser, but it has special handling for header matching (e.g. "--author"), and a parse tree is valuable when working on it. Note that "--all-match" is *not* any individual node in the parse tree. It is an instruction to the evaluator to check all the nodes in the top-level backbone have matched and reject a document as non-matching otherwise. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-09-11blame: allow "blame file" in the middle of a conflicted mergeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-24/+69
"git blame file" has always meant "find the origin of each line of the file in the history leading to HEAD, oh by the way, blame the lines that are modified locally to the working tree". This teaches "git blame" that during a conflicted merge, some uncommitted changes may have come from the other history that is being merged. The verify_working_tree_path() function introduced in the previous patch to notice a typo in the filename (primarily on case insensitive filesystems) has been updated to allow a filename that does not exist in HEAD (i.e. the tip of our history) as long as it exists one of the commits being merged, so that a "we deleted, the other side modified" case tracks the history of the file in the history of the other side.

2012-09-10blame $path: avoid getting fooled by case insensitive filesystemsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+14
"git blame MAKEFILE" run in a history that has "Makefile" but not MAKEFILE can get confused on a case insensitive filesystem, because the check we run to see if there is a corresponding file in the working tree with lstat("MAKEFILE") succeeds. In addition to that check, we have to make sure that the given path also exists in the commit we start digging history from (i.e. "HEAD"). Note that this reveals the breakage in a test added in cd8ae20 (git-blame shouldn't crash if run in an unmerged tree, 2007-10-18), which expects the entire merge-in-progress path to be blamed to the working tree when it did not exist in our tree. As it is clear in the log message of that commit, the old breakage was that it was causing an internal error and the fix was about avoiding it. Just check that the command does not die an uncontrolled death. For this particular case, the blame should fail, as the history for the file in that contents has not been committed yet at the point in the test. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

fetch_populated_submodules() allocates the full argv array it uses to recurse into the submodules from the number of given options plus the six argv values it is going to add. It then initializes it with those values which won't change during the iteration and copies the given options into it. Inside the loop the two argv values different for each submodule get replaced with those currently valid. However, this technique is brittle and error-prone (as the comment to explain the magic number 6 indicates), so let's replace it with an argv_array. Instead of replacing the argv values, push them to the argv_array just before the run_command() call (including the option separating them) and pop them from the argv_array right after that.

2012-08-30cherry-pick/revert: respect order of revisions to pickLibravatar Martin von Zweigbergk1-1/+1
When giving multiple individual revisions to cherry-pick or revert, as in 'git cherry-pick A B' or 'git revert B A', one would expect them to be picked/reverted in the order given on the command line. They are instead ordered by their commit timestamp -- in chronological order for "cherry-pick" and in reverse chronological order for "revert". This matches the order in which one would usually give them on the command line, making this bug somewhat hard to notice. Still, it has been reported at least once before [1]. It seems like the chronological sorting happened by accident because the revision walker has traditionally always sorted commits in reverse chronological order when rev_info.no_walk was enabled. In the case of 'git revert B A' where B is newer than A, this sorting is a no-op. For 'git cherry-pick A B', the sorting would reverse the arguments, but because the sequencer also flips the rev_info.reverse flag when picking (as opposed to reverting), the end result is a chronological order. The rev_info.reverse flag was probably flipped so that the revision walker emits B before C in 'git cherry-pick A..C'; that it happened to effectively undo the unexpected sorting done when not walking, was probably a coincidence that allowed this bug to happen at all. Fix the bug by telling the revision walker not to sort the commits when not walking. The only case we want to reverse the order is now when cherry-picking and walking revisions (rev_info.no_walk = 0).

2012-08-30teach log --no-walk=unsorted, which avoids sortingLibravatar Martin von Zweigbergk2-2/+2
When 'git log' is passed the --no-walk option, no revision walk takes place, naturally. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, however, the provided revisions still get sorted by commit date. So e.g 'git log --no-walk HEAD HEAD~1' and 'git log --no-walk HEAD~1 HEAD' give the same result (unless the two revisions share the commit date, in which case they will retain the order given on the command line). As the commit that introduced --no-walk (8e64006 (Teach revision machinery about --no-walk, 2007-07-24)) points out, the sorting is intentional, to allow things like git log --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline --decorate --all --no-walk to show all refs in order by commit date. But there are also other cases where the sorting is not wanted, such as <command producing revisions in order> | git log --oneline --no-walk --stdin To accomodate both cases, leave the decision of whether or not to sort up to the caller, by allowing --no-walk={sorted,unsorted}, defaulting to 'sorted' for backward-compatibility reasons.
