2016-10-06Merge branch 'jk/ambiguous-short-object-names'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
When given an abbreviated object name that is not (or more realistically, "no longer") unique, we gave a fatal error "ambiguous argument". This error is now accompanied by hints that lists the objects that begins with the given prefix. During the course of development of this new feature, numerous minor bugs were uncovered and corrected, the most notable one of which is that we gave "short SHA1 xxxx is ambiguous." twice without good reason. * jk/ambiguous-short-object-names: get_short_sha1: make default disambiguation configurable get_short_sha1: list ambiguous objects on error for_each_abbrev: drop duplicate objects sha1_array: let callbacks interrupt iteration get_short_sha1: mark ambiguity error for translation get_short_sha1: NUL-terminate hex prefix get_short_sha1: refactor init of disambiguation code get_short_sha1: parse tags when looking for treeish get_sha1: propagate flags to child functions get_sha1: avoid repeating ourselves via ONLY_TO_DIE get_sha1: detect buggy calls with multiple disambiguators

"git init" tried to record core.worktree in the repository's 'config' file when GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable was set and it was different from where GIT_DIR appears as ".git" at its top, but the logic was faulty when .git is a "gitdir:" file that points at the real place, causing trouble in working trees that are managed by "git worktree". This has been corrected. * nd/init-core-worktree-in-multi-worktree-world: init: kill git_link variable init: do not set unnecessary core.worktree init: kill set_git_dir_init() init: call set_git_dir_init() from within init_db() init: correct re-initialization from a linked worktree
2016-09-27get_short_sha1: make default disambiguation configurableLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
When we find ambiguous short sha1s, we may get a disambiguation rule from our caller's context. But if we don't, we fall back to treating all sha1s the same, even though most projects will tend to refer only to commits by their short sha1s. This patch introduces a configuration option that lets the user pick a different fallback (e.g., only commits). It's possible that we may want to make this the default, but it's a good idea to start as a config option for two reasons: 1. It lets people experiment with this and see if it's a good idea (i.e., the "tend to" above is an assumption; we don't really know if this will break some obscure cases). 2. Even if we do flip the default, it gives people an escape hatch if it causes problems (you can sometimes override it by asking for "1234^{tree}", but not all combinations are possible).

2016-09-26get_sha1: detect buggy calls with multiple disambiguatorsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
The get_sha1() family of functions takes a flags field, but some of the flags are mutually exclusive. In particular, we can only handle one disambiguating function, and the flags quietly override each other. Let's instead detect these as programming bugs. Technically some of the flags are supersets of the others, so treating COMMITTISH|TREEISH as just COMMITTISH is not wrong, but it's a good sign the caller is confused. And certainly asking for BLOB|TREE does not work. We can do the check easily with some bit-twiddling, and as a bonus, the bit-mask of disambiguators will come in handy in a future patch.

2016-09-15add: modify already added files when --chmod is givenLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-5/+5
When the chmod option was added to git add, it was hooked up to the diff machinery, meaning that it only works when the version in the index differs from the version on disk.

2016-09-13init: reset cached config when entering new repoLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+7
After we copy the templates into place, we re-read the config in case we copied in a default config file. But since git_config() is backed by a cache these days, it's possible that the call will not actually touch the filesystem at all; we need to tell it that something has changed behind the scenes. Note that we also need to reset the shared_repository config. At first glance, it seems like this should probably just be folded into git_config_clear(). But unfortunately that is not quite right. The shared repository value may come from config, _or_ it may have been set manually. So only the caller who knows whether or not they set it is the one who can clear it (and indeed, if you _do_ put it into git_config_clear(), then many tests fail, as we have to clear the config cache any time we set a new config variable). There are three tests here. The first two actually pass already, though it's largely luck: they just don't happen to actually read any config before we enter the new repo. But the third one does fail without this patch; we look at core.sharedrepository while creating the directory, but need to make sure the value from the template config overrides it.

2016-09-13config: only read .git/config from configured reposLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
When git_config() runs, it looks in the system, user-wide, and repo-level config files. It gets the latter by calling git_pathdup(), which in turn calls get_git_dir(). If we haven't set up the git repository yet, this may simply return ".git", and we will look at ".git/config". This seems like it would be helpful (presumably we haven't set up the repository yet, so it tries to find it), but it turns out to be a bad idea for a few reasons: - it's not sufficient, and therefore hides bugs in a confusing way. Config will be respected if commands are run from the top-level of the working tree, but not from a subdirectory. - it's not always true that we haven't set up the repository _yet_; we may not want to do it at all. For instance, if you run "git init /some/path" from inside another repository, it should not load config from the existing repository. - there might be a path ".git/config", but it is not the actual repository we would find via setup_git_directory(). This may happen, e.g., if you are storing a git repository inside another git repository, but have munged one of the files in such a way that the inner repository is not valid (e.g., by removing HEAD). We have at least two bugs of the second type in git-init, introduced by ae5f677 (lazily load core.sharedrepository, 2016-03-11). It causes init to use git_configset(), which loads all of the config, including values from the current repo (if any). This shows up in two ways: 1. If we happen to be in an existing repository directory, we'll read and respect core.sharedrepository from it, even though it should have no bearing on the new repository. A new test in t1301 covers this. 2. Similarly, if we're in an existing repo that sets core.logallrefupdates, that will cause init to fail to set it in a newly created repository (because it thinks that the user's templates already did so). A new test in t0001 covers this. We also need to adjust an existing test in t1302, which gives another example of why this patch is an improvement. That test creates an embedded repository with a bogus core.repositoryformatversion of "99". It wants to make sure that we actually stop at the bogus repo rather than continuing upward to find the outer repo. So it checks that "git config core.repositoryformatversion" returns 99. But that only works because we blindly read ".git/config", even though we _know_ we're in a repository whose vintage we do not understand. After this patch, we avoid reading config from the unknown vintage repository at all, which is a safer choice. But we need to tweak the test, since core.repositoryformatversion will not return 99; it will claim that it could not find the variable at all.

2016-08-31allow do_submodule_path to work even if submodule isn't checked outLibravatar Jacob Keller1-2/+2
Currently, do_submodule_path will attempt locating the .git directory by using read_gitfile on <path>/.git. If this fails it just assumes the <path>/.git is actually a git directory. This is good because it allows for handling submodules which were cloned in a regular manner first before being added to the superproject. Unfortunately this fails if the <path> is not actually checked out any longer, such as by removing the directory. Fix this by checking if the directory we found is actually a gitdir. In the case it is not, attempt to lookup the submodule configuration and find the name of where it is stored in the .git/modules/ directory of the superproject. If we can't locate the submodule configuration, this might occur because for example a submodule gitlink was added but the corresponding .gitmodules file was not properly updated. A die() here would not be pleasant to the users of submodule diff formats, so instead, modify do_submodule_path() to return an error code: - git_pathdup_submodule() returns NULL when we fail to find a path. - strbuf_git_path_submodule() propagates the error code to the caller. Modify the callers of these functions to check the error code and fail properly. This ensures we don't attempt to use a bad path that doesn't match the corresponding submodule. Because this change fixes add_submodule_odb() to work even if the submodule is not checked out, update the wording of the submodule log diff format to correctly display that the submodule is "not initialized" instead of "not checked out" Add tests to ensure this change works as expected.

2016-08-05write_or_die: drop write_or_whine_pipe()Libravatar Jeff King1-1/+0
This function has no callers, and is not likely to gain any because it's confusing to use. It unconditionally complains to stderr, but _doesn't_ die. Yet any caller which wants a "gentle" write would generally want to suppress the error message, because presumably they're going to write a better one, and/or try the operation again. And the check_pipe() call leads to confusing behaviors. It means we die for EPIPE, but not for other errors, which is confusing and pointless. On top of all that, it has unusual error return semantics, which makes it easy for callers to get it wrong. Let's drop the function, and if somebody ever needs to resurrect something like it, they can fix these warts.

2016-08-01am: reset cached ident date for each patchLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
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>
2016-07-29find_pack_entry: replace last_found_pack with MRU cacheLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+7
Each pack has an index for looking up entries in O(log n) time, but if we have multiple packs, we have to scan through them linearly. This can produce a measurable overhead for some operations. We dealt with this long ago in f7c22cc (always start looking up objects in the last used pack first, 2007-05-30), which keeps what is essentially a 1-element most-recently-used cache. In theory, we should be able to do better by keeping a similar but longer cache, that is the same length as the pack-list itself. Since we now have a convenient generic MRU structure, we can plug it in and measure. Here are the numbers for running p5303 against linux.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5303.3: rev-list (1) 31.56(31.28+0.27) 31.30(31.08+0.20) -0.8% 5303.4: repack (1) 40.62(39.35+2.36) 40.60(39.27+2.44) -0.0% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 31.31(31.06+0.23) 31.23(31.00+0.22) -0.3% 5303.7: repack (50) 58.65(69.12+1.94) 58.27(68.64+2.05) -0.6% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 38.74(38.40+0.33) 31.87(31.62+0.24) -17.7% 5303.10: repack (1000) 367.20(441.80+4.62) 342.00(414.04+3.72) -6.9% The main numbers of interest here are the rev-list ones (since that is exercising the normal object lookup code path). The single-pack case shouldn't improve at all; the 260ms speedup there is just part of the run-to-run noise (but it's important to note that we didn't make anything worse with the overhead of maintaining our cache). In the 50-pack case, we see similar results. There may be a slight improvement, but it's mostly within the noise. The 1000-pack case does show a big improvement, though. That carries over to the repack case, as well. Even though we haven't touched its pack-search loop yet, it does still do a lot of normal object lookups (e.g., for the internal revision walk), and so improves. As a point of reference, I also ran the 1000-pack test against a version of HEAD^ with the last_found_pack optimization disabled. It takes ~60s, so that gives an indication of how much even the single-element cache is helping. For comparison, here's a smaller repository, git.git: Test HEAD^ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------- 5303.3: rev-list (1) 1.56(1.54+0.01) 1.54(1.51+0.02) -1.3% 5303.4: repack (1) 1.84(1.80+0.10) 1.82(1.80+0.09) -1.1% 5303.6: rev-list (50) 1.58(1.55+0.02) 1.59(1.57+0.01) +0.6% 5303.7: repack (50) 2.50(3.18+0.04) 2.50(3.14+0.04) +0.0% 5303.9: rev-list (1000) 2.76(2.71+0.04) 2.24(2.21+0.02) -18.8% 5303.10: repack (1000) 13.21(19.56+0.25) 11.66(18.01+0.21) -11.7% You can see that the percentage improvement is similar. That's because the lookup we are optimizing is roughly O(nr_objects * nr_packs). Since the number of packs is constant in both tests, we'd expect the improvement to be linear in the number of objects. But the whole process is also linear in the number of objects, so the improvement is a constant factor. The exact improvement does also depend on the contents of the packs. In p5303, the extra packs all have 5 first-parent commits in them, which is a reasonable simulation of a pushed-to repository. But it also means that only 250 first-parent commits are in those packs (compared to almost 50,000 total in linux.git), and the rest are in the huge "base" pack. So once we start looking at history in taht big pack, that's where we'll find most everything, and even the 1-element cache gets close to 100% cache hits. You could almost certainly show better numbers with a more pathological case (e.g., distributing the objects more evenly across the packs). But that's simply not that realistic a scenario, so it makes more sense to focus on these numbers. The implementation itself is a straightforward application of the MRU code. We provide an MRU-ordered list of packs that shadows the packed_git list. This is easy to do because we only create and revise the pack list in one place. The "reprepare" code path actually drops the whole MRU and replaces it for simplicity. It would be more efficient to just add new entries, but there's not much point in optimizing here; repreparing happens rarely, and only after doing a lot of other expensive work. The key things to keep optimized are traversal (which is just a normal linked list, albeit with one extra level of indirection over the regular packed_git list), and marking (which is a constant number of pointer assignments, though slightly more than the old last_found_pack was; it doesn't seem to create a measurable slowdown, though).

2016-07-29sha1_file: drop free_pack_by_nameLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+0
The point of this function is to drop an entry from the "packed_git" cache that points to a file we might be overwriting, because our contents may not be the same (and hence the only caller was pack-objects as it moved a temporary packfile into place). In older versions of git, this could happen because the names of packfiles were derived from the set of objects they contained, not the actual bits on disk. But since 1190a1a (pack-objects: name pack files after trailer hash, 2013-12-05), the name reflects the actual bits on disk, and any two packfiles with the same name can be used interchangeably. Dropping this function not only saves a few lines of code, it makes the lifetime of "struct packed_git" much easier to reason about: namely, we now do not ever free these structs.

2016-07-28i18n: config: unfold error messages marked for translationLibravatar Vasco Almeida1-2/+10
Introduced in 473166b ("config: add 'origin_type' to config_source struct", 2016-02-19), Git can inform the user about the origin of a config error, but the implementation does not allow translators to translate the keywords 'file', 'blob, 'standard input', and 'submodule-blob'. Moreover, for the second message, a reason for the error is appended to the message, not allowing translators to translate that reason either. Unfold the message into several templates for each known origin_type. That would result in better translation at the expense of code verbosity. Add enum config_oringin_type to ease management of the various configuration origin types (blob, file, etc). Previously origin type was considered from command line if cf->origin_type == NULL, i.e., uninitialized. Now we set origin_type to CONFIG_ORIGIN_CMDLINE in git_config_from_parameters() and configset_add_value(). For error message in git_parse_source(), use xstrfmt() function to prepare the message string, instead of doing something like it's done for die_bad_number(), because intelligibility and code conciseness are improved for that instance.

2016-07-27date: add "unix" formatLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
We already have "--date=raw", which is a Unix epoch timestamp plus a contextual timezone (either the author's or the local). But one may not care about the timezone and just want the epoch timestamp by itself. It's not hard to parse the two apart, but if you are using a pretty-print format, you may want git to show the "finished" form that the user will see. We can accomodate this by adding a new date format, "unix", which is basically "raw" without the timezone. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2016-07-12merge: avoid "safer crlf" during recording of merge resultsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
When merge_recursive() decides what the correct blob object merge result for a path should be, it uses update_file_flags() helper function to write it out to a working tree file and then calls add_cacheinfo(). The add_cacheinfo() function in turn calls make_cache_entry() to create a new cache entry to replace the higher-stage entries for the path that represents the conflict. The make_cache_entry() function calls refresh_cache_entry() to fill in the cached stat information. To mark a cache entry as up-to-date, the data is re-read from the file in the working tree, and goes through convert_to_git() conversion to be compared with the blob object name the new cache entry records. It is important to note that this happens while the higher-stage entries, which are going to be replaced with the new entry, are still in the index. Unfortunately, the convert_to_git() conversion has a misguided "safer crlf" mechanism baked in, and looks at the existing cache entry for the path to decide how to convert the contents in the working tree file. If our side (i.e. stage#2) records a text blob with CRLF in it, even when the system is configured to record LF in blobs and convert them to CRLF upon checkout (and back to LF upon checkin), the "safer crlf" mechanism stops us doing so. This especially poses a problem during a renormalizing merge, where the merge result for the path is computed by first "normalizing" the blobs involved in the merge by using convert_to_working_tree() followed by convert_to_git() with "safer crlf" disabled. The merge result that is computed correctly and fed to add_cacheinfo() via update_file_flags() does _not_ match what refresh_cache_entry() sees by converting the working tree file via convert_to_git(). We can work this around by not refreshing the new cache entry in make_cache_entry() called by add_cacheinfo(). After add_cacheinfo() adds the new entry, we can call refresh_cache_entry() on that, knowing that addition of this new cache entry would have removed the stale cache entries that had CRLF in stage #2 that were carried over before the renormalizing merge started and will not interfere with the correct recording of the result. The test update was taken from a series by Torsten Bögershausen that attempted to fix this with a different approach.

2016-07-08write_file: add format attributeLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+8
This gives us compile-time checking of our format strings, which is a good thing. I had also hoped it would help with confusing write_file() and write_file_buf(), since the former's "..." can make it match the signature of the latter. But given that the buffer for write_file_buf() is generally not a string literal, the compiler won't complain unless -Wformat-nonliteral is on, and that creates a ton of false positives elsewhere in the code base. While we're there, let's also give the function a docstring, which it never had. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-07-08write_file: add pointer+len variantLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+6
There are many callsites which could use write_file, but for which it is a little awkward because they have a strbuf or other pointer/len combo. Specifically: 1. write_file() takes a format string, so we have to use "%s" or "%.*s", which are ugly. 2. Using any form of "%s" does not handle embedded NULs in the output. That probably doesn't matter for our call-sites, but it's nicer not to have to worry. 3. It's less efficient; we format into another strbuf just to do the write. That's probably not measurably slow for our uses, but it's simply inelegant. We can fix this by providing a helper to write out the formatted buffer, and just calling it from write_file(). Note that we don't do the usual "complete with a newline" that write_file does. If the caller has their own buffer, there's a reasonable chance they're doing something more complicated than a single line, and they can call strbuf_complete_line() themselves. We could go even further and add strbuf_write_file(), but it doesn't save much: - write_file_buf(path, sb.buf, sb.len); + strbuf_write_file(&sb, path); It would also be somewhat asymmetric with strbuf_read_file, which actually returns errors rather than dying (and the error handling is most of the benefit of write_file() in the first place).
