2013-04-03add -u: only show pathless 'add -u' warning when changes exist outside cwdLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-0/+1
A common workflow in large projects is to chdir into a subdirectory of interest and only do work there: cd src vi foo.c make test git add -u git commit The upcoming change to 'git add -u' behavior would not affect such a workflow: when the only changes present are in the current directory, 'git add -u' will add all changes, and whether that happens via an implicit "." or implicit ":/" parameter is an unimportant implementation detail. The warning about use of 'git add -u' with no pathspec is annoying because it seemingly serves no purpose in this case. So suppress the warning unless there are changes outside the cwd that are not being added. A previous version of this patch ran two I/O-intensive diff-files passes: one to find changes outside the cwd, and another to find changes to add to the index within the cwd. This version runs one full-tree diff and decides for each change whether to add it or warn and suppress it in update_callback. As a result, even on very large repositories "git add -u" will not be significantly slower than the future default behavior ("git add -u :/"), and the slowdown relative to "git add -u ." should be a useful clue to users of such repositories to get into the habit of explicitly passing '.'.

Some reimplementations of Git does not write all the stat info back to the index due to their implementation limitations (e.g. jgit running on Java). A configuration option can tell Git to ignore changes to most of the stat fields and only pay attention to mtime and size, which these implementations can reliably update. This avoids excessive revalidation of contents. * rr/minimal-stat: Enable minimal stat checking
2013-01-24push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCELibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
When we push to update an existing ref, if: * the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or * the object we are pushing is not a commit, it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again, as the old and new objects will not "merge". We should explain that the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is involved in such a case. If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be merged. In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work as a suggestion most of the time. And if the object at the tip is not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent damage. As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved. In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from there and integrate before pushing again. Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages appropriately. [jc: with help by Peff on message details] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-01-24push: further clean up fields of "struct ref"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+1
The "nonfastforward" and "update" fields are only used while deciding what value to assign to the "status" locally in a single function. Remove them from the "struct ref". The "requires_force" field is not used to decide if the proposed update requires a --force option to succeed, or to record such a decision made elsewhere. It is used by status reporting code that the particular update was "forced". Rename it to "forced_update", and move the code to assign to it around to further clarify how it is used and what it is used for. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-01-23config: add helper function for parsing key namesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+15
The config callback functions get keys of the general form: section.subsection.key (where the subsection may be contain arbitrary data, or may be missing). For matching keys without subsections, it is simple enough to call "strcmp". Matching keys with subsections is a little more complicated, and each callback does it in an ad-hoc way, usually involving error-prone pointer arithmetic. Let's provide a helper that keeps the pointer arithmetic all in one place.

2013-01-22Enable minimal stat checkingLibravatar Robin Rosenberg1-0/+1
Specifically the fields uid, gid, ctime, ino and dev are set to zero by JGit. Other implementations, eg. Git in cygwin are allegedly also somewhat incompatible with Git For Windows and on *nix platforms the resolution of the timestamps may differ. Any stat checking by git will then need to check content, which may be very slow, particularly on Windows. Since mtime and size is typically enough we should allow the user to tell git to avoid checking these fields if they are set to zero in the index. This change introduces a core.checkstat config option where the the user can select to check all fields (default), or just size and the whole second part of mtime (minimal).

2013-01-16push: fix "refs/tags/ hierarchy cannot be updated without --force"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+0
When pushing to update a branch with a commit that is not a descendant of the commit at the tip, a wrong message "already exists" was given, instead of the correct "non-fast-forward", if we do not have the object sitting in the destination repository at the tip of the ref we are updating. The primary cause of the bug is that the check in a new helper function is_forwardable() assumed both old and new objects are available and can be checked, which is not always the case. The way the caller uses the result of this function is also wrong. If the helper says "we do not want to let this push go through", the caller unconditionally translates it into "we blocked it because the destination already exists", which is not true at all in this case. Fix this by doing these three things: * Remove unnecessary not_forwardable from "struct ref"; it is only used inside set_ref_status_for_push(); * Make "refs/tags/" the only hierarchy that cannot be replaced without --force; * Remove the misguided attempt to force that everything that updates an existing ref has to be a commit outside "refs/tags/" hierarchy. The policy last one tried to implement may later be resurrected and extended to ensure fast-forwardness (defined as "not losing objects", extending from the traditional "not losing commits from the resulting history") when objects that are not commit are involved (e.g. an annotated tag in hierarchies outside refs/tags), but such a logic belongs to "is this a fast-forward?" check that is done by ref_newer(); is_forwardable(), which is now removed, was not the right place to do so.

Some users do want to write a line that begin with a pound sign, #, in their commit log message. Many tracking system recognise a token of #<bugid> form, for example. The support we offer these use cases is not very friendly to the end users. They have a choice between - Don't do it. Avoid such a line by rewrapping or indenting; and - Use --cleanup=whitespace but remove all the hint lines we add. Give them a way to set a custom comment char, e.g. $ git -c core.commentchar="%" commit so that they do not have to do either of the two workarounds.

2013-01-16fix clang -Wunused-value warnings for error functionsLibravatar Max Horn1-1/+1
Commit a469a10 wraps some error calls in macros to give the compiler a chance to do more static analysis on their constant -1 return value. We limit the use of these macros to __GNUC__, since gcc is the primary beneficiary of the new information, and because we use GNU features for handling variadic macros. However, clang also defines __GNUC__, but generates warnings with -Wunused-value when these macros are used in a void context, because the constant "-1" ends up being useless. Gcc does not complain about this case (though it is unclear if it is because it is smart enough to see what we are doing, or too dumb to realize that the -1 is unused). We can squelch the warning by just disabling these macros when clang is in use.

2012-12-19add global --literal-pathspecs optionLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
Git takes pathspec arguments in many places to limit the scope of an operation. These pathspecs are treated not as literal paths, but as glob patterns that can be fed to fnmatch. When a user is giving a specific pattern, this is a nice feature. However, when programatically providing pathspecs, it can be a nuisance. For example, to find the latest revision which modified "$foo", one can use "git rev-list -- $foo". But if "$foo" contains glob characters (e.g., "f*"), it will erroneously match more entries than desired. The caller needs to quote the characters in $foo, and even then, the results may not be exactly the same as with a literal pathspec. For instance, the depth checks in match_pathspec_depth do not kick in if we match via fnmatch. This patch introduces a global command-line option (i.e., one for "git" itself, not for specific commands) to turn this behavior off. It also has a matching environment variable, which can make it easier if you are a script or porcelain interface that is going to issue many such commands. This option cannot turn off globbing for particular pathspecs. That could eventually be done with a ":(noglob)" magic pathspec prefix. However, that level of granularity is more cumbersome to use for many cases, and doing ":(noglob)" right would mean converting the whole codebase to use "struct pathspec", as the usual "const char **pathspec" cannot represent extra per-item flags.

2012-12-15silence some -Wuninitialized false positivesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
There are a few error functions that simply wrap error() and provide a standardized message text. Like error(), they always return -1; knowing that can help the compiler silence some false positive -Wuninitialized warnings. One strategy would be to just declare these as inline in the header file so that the compiler can see that they always return -1. However, gcc does not always inline them (e.g., it will not inline opterror, even with -O3), which renders our change pointless. Instead, let's follow the same route we did with error() in the last patch, and define a macro that makes the constant return value obvious to the compiler.

When a pattern contains only a single asterisk as wildcard, e.g. "foo*bar", after literally comparing the leading part "foo" with the string, we can compare the tail of the string and make sure it matches "bar", instead of running fnmatch() on "*bar" against the remainder of the string. -O2 build on linux-2.6, without the patch: $ time git rev-list --quiet HEAD -- '*.c' real 0m40.770s user 0m40.290s sys 0m0.256s With the patch $ time ~/w/git/git rev-list --quiet HEAD -- '*.c' real 0m34.288s user 0m33.997s sys 0m0.205s The above command is not supposed to be widely popular.

2012-11-15ident: keep separate "explicit" flags for author and committerLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
We keep track of whether the user ident was given to us explicitly, or if we guessed at it from system parameters like username and hostname. However, we kept only a single variable. This covers the common cases (because the author and committer will usually come from the same explicit source), but can miss two cases: 1. GIT_COMMITTER_* is set explicitly, but we fallback for GIT_AUTHOR. We claim the ident is explicit, even though the author is not. 2. GIT_AUTHOR_* is set and we ask for author ident, but not committer ident. We will claim the ident is implicit, even though it is explicit. This patch uses two variables instead of one, updates both when we set the "fallback" values, and updates them individually when we read from the environment. Rather than keep user_ident_sufficiently_given as a compatibility wrapper, we update the only two callers to check the committer_ident, which matches their intent and what was happening already.

2012-08-13parse_feature_request: make it easier to see feature valuesLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+3
We already take care to parse key/value capabilities like "foo=bar", but the code does not provide a good way of actually finding out what is on the right-hand side of the "=". A server using "parse_feature_request" could accomplish this with some extra parsing. You must skip past the "key" portion manually, check for "=" versus NUL or space, and then find the length by searching for the next space (or NUL). But clients can't even do that, since the "server_supports" interface does not even return the pointer. Instead, let's have our parser share more information by providing a pointer to the value and its length. The "parse_feature_value" function returns a pointer to the feature's value portion, along with the length of the value. If the feature is missing, NULL is returned. If it does not have an "=", then a zero-length value is returned. Similarly, "server_feature_value" behaves in the same way, but always checks the static server_feature_list variable. We can then implement "server_supports" in terms of "server_feature_value". We cannot implement the original "parse_feature_request" in terms of our new function, because it returned a pointer to the beginning of the feature. However, no callers actually cared about the value of the returned pointer, so we can simplify it to a boolean just as we do for "server_supports".

2012-07-11Strip namelen out of ce_flags into a ce_namelen fieldLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-13/+6
Strip the name length from the ce_flags field and move it into its own ce_namelen field in struct cache_entry. This will both give us a tiny bit of a performance enhancement when working with long pathnames and is a refactoring for more readability of the code. It enhances readability, by making it more clear what is a flag, and where the length is stored and make it clear which functions use stages in comparisions and which only use the length. It also makes CE_NAMEMASK private, so that users don't mistakenly write the name length in the flags.

2012-07-09rev-parse --disambiguate=<prefix>Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+3
The new option allows you to feed an ambiguous prefix and enumerate all the objects that share it as a prefix of their object names. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09sha1_name.c: add support for disambiguating other typesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+10
This teaches the revision parser that in "$name:$path" (used for a blob object name), "$name" must be a tree-ish. There are many more places where we know what types of objects are called for. This patch adds support for "commit", "treeish", "tree", and "blob", which could be used in the following contexts: - "git apply --build-fake-ancestor" reads the "index" lines from the patch; they must name blob objects (not even "blob-ish"); - "git commit-tree" reads a tree object name (not "tree-ish"), and zero or more commit object names (not "committish"); - "git reset $rev" wants a committish; "git reset $rev -- $path" wants a treeish. They will come in later patches in the series. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09sha1_name.c: introduce get_sha1_committish()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
Many callers know that the user meant to name a committish by syntactical positions where the object name appears. Calling this function allows the machinery to disambiguate shorter-than-unique abbreviated object names between committish and others. Note that this does NOT error out when the named object is not a committish. It is merely to give a hint to the disambiguation machinery. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
