2007-03-02Add core.symlinks to mark filesystems that do not support symbolic links.Libravatar Johannes Sixt1-1/+5
Some file systems that can host git repositories and their working copies do not support symbolic links. But then if the repository contains a symbolic link, it is impossible to check out the working copy. This patch enables partial support of symbolic links so that it is possible to check out a working copy on such a file system. A new flag core.symlinks (which is true by default) can be set to false to indicate that the filesystem does not support symbolic links. In this case, symbolic links that exist in the trees are checked out as small plain files, and checking in modifications of these files preserve the symlink property in the database (as long as an entry exists in the index). Of course, this does not magically make symbolic links work on such defective file systems; hence, this solution does not help if the working copy relies on that an entry is a real symbolic link.

2007-02-27show_date(): rename the "relative" parameter to "mode"Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+2
Now, show_date() can print three different kinds of dates: normal, relative and short (%Y-%m-%s) dates. To achieve this, the "int relative" was changed to "enum date_mode mode", which has three states: DATE_NORMAL, DATE_RELATIVE and DATE_SHORT. Since existing users of show_date() only call it with relative_date being either 0 or 1, and DATE_NORMAL and DATE_RELATIVE having these values, no behaviour is changed.

2007-02-27convert object type handling from a string to a numberLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-18/+18
We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch of strcmp() all over the place. This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the system.

When we do not trust executable bit from lstat(2), we copied existing ce_mode bits without checking if the filesystem object is a regular file (which is the only thing we apply the "trust executable bit" business) nor if the blob in the index is a regular file (otherwise, we should do the same as registering a new regular file, which is to default non-executable).

2007-02-14Lazy man's auto-CRLFLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+5
It currently does NOT know about file attributes, so it does its conversion purely based on content. Maybe that is more in the "git philosophy" anyway, since content is king, but I think we should try to do the file attributes to turn it off on demand. Anyway, BY DEFAULT it is off regardless, because it requires a [core] AutoCRLF = true in your config file to be enabled. We could make that the default for Windows, of course, the same way we do some other things (filemode etc). But you can actually enable it on UNIX, and it will cause: - "git update-index" will write blobs without CRLF - "git diff" will diff working tree files without CRLF - "git checkout" will write files to the working tree _with_ CRLF and things work fine. Funnily, it actually shows an odd file in git itself: git clone -n git test-crlf cd test-crlf git config core.autocrlf true git checkout git diff shows a diff for "Documentation/docbook-xsl.css". Why? Because we have actually checked in that file *with* CRLF! So when "core.autocrlf" is true, we'll always generate a *different* hash for it in the index, because the index hash will be for the content _without_ CRLF. Is this complete? I dunno. It seems to work for me. It doesn't use the filename at all right now, and that's probably a deficiency (we could certainly make the "is_binary()" heuristics also take standard filename heuristics into account). I don't pass in the filename at all for the "index_fd()" case (git-update-index), so that would need to be passed around, but this actually works fine. NOTE NOTE NOTE! The "is_binary()" heuristics are totally made-up by yours truly. I will not guarantee that they work at all reasonable. Caveat emptor. But it _is_ simple, and it _is_ safe, since it's all off by default. The patch is pretty simple - the biggest part is the new "convert.c" file, but even that is really just basic stuff that anybody can write in "Teaching C 101" as a final project for their first class in programming. Not to say that it's bug-free, of course - but at least we're not talking about rocket surgery here.

Back when only handful commands that created commit and tag were the only users of committer identity information, it made sense to explicitly call setup_ident() to pre-fill the default value from the gecos information.

2007-01-25Allow non-developer to clone, checkout and fetch more easily.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+0
The code that uses committer_info() in reflog can barf and die whenever it is asked to update a ref. And I do not think calling ignore_missing_committer_name() upfront like recent receive-pack did in the aplication is a reasonable workaround. What the patch does. - git_committer_info() takes one parameter. It used to be "if this is true, then die() if the name is not available due to bad GECOS, otherwise issue a warning once but leave the name empty". The reason was because we wanted to prevent bad commits from being made by git-commit-tree (and its callers). The value 0 is only used by "git var -l". Now it takes -1, 0 or 1. When set to -1, it does not complain but uses the pw->pw_name when name is not available. Existing 0 and 1 values mean the same thing as they used to mean before. 0 means issue warnings and leave it empty, 1 means barf and die. - ignore_missing_committer_name() and its existing caller (receive-pack, to set the reflog) have been removed. - git-format-patch, to come up with the phoney message ID when asked to thread, now passes -1 to git_committer_info(). This codepath uses only the e-mail part, ignoring the name. It used to barf and die. The other call in the same program when asked to add signed-off-by line based on committer identity still passes 1 to make sure it barfs instead of adding a bogus s-o-b line. - log_ref_write in refs.c, to come up with the name to record who initiated the ref update in the reflog, passes -1. It used to barf and die. The last change means that git-update-ref, git-branch, and commit walker backends can now be used in a repository with reflog by somebody who does not have the user identity required to make a commit. They all used to barf and die. I've run tests and all of them seem to pass, and also tried "git clone" as a user whose GECOS is empty -- git clone works again now (it was broken when reflog was enabled by default). But this definitely needs extra sets of eyeballs. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-01-08Detached HEAD (experimental)Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This allows "git checkout v1.4.3" to dissociate the HEAD of repository from any branch. After this point, "git branch" starts reporting that you are not on any branch. You can go back to an existing branch by saying "git checkout master", for example. This is still experimental. While I think it makes sense to allow commits on top of detached HEAD, it is rather dangerous unless you are careful in the current form. Next "git checkout master" will obviously lose what you have done, so we might want to require "git checkout -f" out of a detached HEAD if we find that the HEAD commit is not an ancestor of any other branches. There is no such safety valve implemented right now. On the other hand, the reason the user did not start the ad-hoc work on a new branch with "git checkout -b" was probably because the work was of a throw-away nature, so the convenience of not having that safety valve might be even better. The user, after accumulating some commits on top of a detached HEAD, can always create a new branch with "git checkout -b" not to lose useful work done while the HEAD was detached. We'll see.

2007-01-03Fix infinite loop when deleting multiple packed refs.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
It was stupid to link the same element twice to lock_file_list and end up in a loop, so we certainly need a fix. But it is not like we are taking a lock on multiple files in this case. It is just that we leave the linked element on the list even after commit_lock_file() successfully removes the cruft. We cannot remove the list element in commit_lock_file(); if we are interrupted in the middle of list manipulation, the call to remove_lock_file_on_signal() will happen with a broken list structure pointed by lock_file_list, which would cause the cruft to remain, so not removing the list element is the right thing to do. Instead we should be reusing the element already on the list. There is already a code for that in lock_file() function in lockfile.c. The code checks lk->next and the element is linked only when it is not already on the list -- which is incorrect for the last element on the list (which has NULL in its next field), but if you read the check as "is this element already on the list?" it actually makes sense. We do not want to link it on the list again, nor we would want to set up signal/atexit over and over. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-12-29Fully activate the sliding window pack access.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+1
This finally turns on the sliding window behavior for packfile data access by mapping limited size windows and chaining them under the packed_git->windows list. We consider a given byte offset to be within the window only if there would be at least 20 bytes (one hash worth of data) accessible after the requested offset. This range selection relates to the contract that use_pack() makes with its callers, allowing them to access one hash or one object header without needing to call use_pack() for every byte of data obtained. In the worst case scenario we will map the same page of data twice into memory: once at the end of one window and once again at the start of the next window. This duplicate page mapping will happen only when an object header or a delta base reference is spanned over the end of a window and is always limited to just one page of duplication, as no sane operating system will ever have a page size smaller than a hash. I am assuming that the possible wasted page of virtual address space is going to perform faster than the alternatives, which would be to copy the object header or ref delta into a temporary buffer prior to parsing, or to check the window range on every byte during header parsing. We may decide to revisit this decision in the future since this is just a gut instinct decision and has not actually been proven out by experimental testing. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2006-12-29Replace use_packed_git with window cursors.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+2
Part of the implementation concept of the sliding mmap window for pack access is to permit multiple windows per pack to be mapped independently. Since the inuse_cnt is associated with the mmap and not with the file, this value is in struct pack_window and needs to be incremented/decremented for each pack_window accessed by any code. To faciliate that implementation we need to replace all uses of use_packed_git() and unuse_packed_git() with a different API that follows struct pack_window objects rather than struct packed_git. The way this works is when we need to start accessing a pack for the first time we should setup a new window 'cursor' by declaring a local and setting it to NULL: struct pack_windows *w_curs = NULL; To obtain the memory region which contains a specific section of the pack file we invoke use_pack(), supplying the address of our current window cursor: unsigned int len; unsigned char *addr = use_pack(p, &w_curs, offset, &len); the returned address `addr` will be the first byte at `offset` within the pack file. The optional variable len will also be updated with the number of bytes remaining following the address. Multiple calls to use_pack() with the same window cursor will update the window cursor, moving it from one window to another when necessary. In this way each window cursor variable maintains only one struct pack_window inuse at a time. Finally before exiting the scope which originally declared the window cursor we must invoke unuse_pack() to unuse the current window (which may be different from the one that was first obtained from use_pack): unuse_pack(&w_curs); This implementation is still not complete with regards to multiple windows, as only one window per pack file is supported right now.

2006-12-29Refactor how we open pack files to prepare for multiple windows.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+1
To efficiently support mmaping of multiple regions of the same pack file we want to keep the pack's file descriptor open while we are actively working with that pack. So we are now keeping that file descriptor in packed_git.pack_fd and closing it only after we unmap the last window. This is going to increase the number of file descriptors that are in use at once, however that will be bounded by the total number of pack files present and therefore should not be very high. It is a small tradeoff which we may need to revisit after some testing can be done on various repositories and systems. For code clarity we also want to seperate out the implementation of how we open a pack file from the implementation which locates a suitable window (or makes a new one) from the given pack file. Since this is a rather large delta I'm taking advantage of doing it now, in a fairly isolated change. When we open a pack file we need to examine the header and trailer without having a mmap in place, as we may only need to mmap the middle section of this particular pack. Consequently the verification code has been refactored to make use of the new read_or_die function. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

The idea behind the sliding mmap window pack reader implementation is to have multiple mmap regions active against the same pack file, thereby allowing the process to mmap in only the active/hot sections of the pack and reduce overall virtual address space usage. To implement this we need to refactor the mmap related data (pack_base, pack_use_cnt) out of struct packed_git and move them into a new struct pack_window. We are refactoring the code to support a single struct pack_window per packfile, thereby emulating the prior behavior of mmap'ing the entire pack file. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

In general users should not need to manually tune such a low-level setting within the core code, but being able to artifically limit the number of bytes which we can mmap at once from pack files will make it easier to craft test cases for the new mmap sliding window implementation.

Both of these must change to using unpack_entry directly when we implement sliding window mmap logic, so I'm doing it earlier to help break down the change set. This may cause a slight performance decrease for delta base resolution as well as for pack-check.c's verify_packfile(), as the pack use counter will be incremented and decremented for every object that is unpacked.

Even then, Latin-1 may be more convenient for the usual pager and the terminal the user uses.

2006-12-15Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+1
New and experienced Git users alike are finding out too late that they forgot to enable reflogs in the current repository, and cannot use the information stored within it to recover from an incorrectly entered command such as `git reset --hard HEAD^^^` when they really meant HEAD^^ (aka HEAD~2). So enable reflogs by default in all future versions of Git, unless the user specifically disables it with: [core] logAllRefUpdates = false in their .git/config or ~/.gitconfig. We only enable reflogs in repositories that have a working directory associated with them, as shared/bare repositories do not have an easy means to prune away old log entries, or may fail logging entirely if the user's gecos information is not valid during a push. This heuristic was suggested on the mailing list by Junio. Documentation was also updated to indicate the new default behavior. We probably should start to teach usuing the reflog to recover from mistakes in some of the tutorial material, as new users are likely to make a few along the way and will feel better knowing they can recover from them quickly and easily, without fsck-objects' lost+found features.

2006-11-03improve fetch-pack's handling of kept packsLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-4/+0
Since functions in fetch-clone.c were only used from fetch-pack.c, its content has been merged with fetch-pack.c. This allows for better coupling of features with much simpler implementations. One new thing is that the (abscence of) --thin also enforce it on index-pack now, such that index-pack will abort if a thin pack was _not_ asked for. The -k or --keep, when provided twice, now causes the fetched pack to be left as a kept pack just like receive-pack currently does. Eventually this will be used to close a race against concurrent repacking. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-11-03Teach receive-pack how to keep pack files based on object count.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-0/+1
Since keeping a pushed pack or exploding it into loose objects should be a local repository decision this teaches receive-pack to decide if it should call unpack-objects or index-pack --stdin --fix-thin based on the setting of receive.unpackLimit and the number of objects contained in the received pack. If the number of objects (hdr_entries) in the received pack is below the value of receive.unpackLimit (which is 5000 by default) then we unpack-objects as we have in the past. If the hdr_entries >= receive.unpackLimit then we call index-pack and ask it to include our pid and hostname in the .keep file to make it easier to identify why a given pack has been kept in the repository. Currently this leaves every received pack as a kept pack. We really don't want that as received packs will tend to be small. Instead we want to delete the .keep file automatically after all refs have been updated. That is being left as room for future improvement. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2006-10-30Move deny_non_fast_forwards handling completely into receive-pack.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-1/+0
The 'receive.denynonfastforwards' option has nothing to do with the repository format version. Since receive-pack already uses git_config to initialize itself before executing any updates we can use the normal configuration strategy and isolate the receive specific variables away from the core variables.
