Assorted bugfixes and clean-ups. * ma/ts-cleanups: ThreadSanitizer: add suppressions strbuf_setlen: don't write to strbuf_slopbuf pack-objects: take lock before accessing `remaining` convert: always initialize attr_action in convert_attrs
2017-08-23ThreadSanitizer: add suppressionsLibravatar Martin Ågren1-0/+7
Add a file .tsan-suppressions and list two functions in it: want_color() and transfer_debug(). Both of these use the pattern static int foo = -1; if (foo < 0) foo = bar(); where bar always returns the same non-negative value. This can cause ThreadSanitizer to diagnose a race when foo is written from two threads. That is indeed a race, although it arguably doesn't matter in practice since it's always the same value that is written. Add NEEDSWORK-comments to the functions so that this problem is not forever swept way under the carpet. The suppressions-file is used by setting the environment variable TSAN_OPTIONS to, e.g., "suppressions=$(pwd)/.tsan-suppressions". Observe that relative paths such as ".tsan-suppressions" might not work. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-07-13color: check color.ui in git_default_config()Libravatar Jeff King1-8/+0
Back in prehistoric times, our decision on whether or not to show color by default relied on using a config callback that either did or didn't load color config like color.diff. When we introduced color.ui, we put it in the same boat: commands had to manually respect it by using git_color_config() or its git_color_default_config() convenience wrapper. But in 4c7f1819b (make color.ui default to 'auto', 2013-06-10), that changed. Since then, we default color.ui to auto in all programs, meaning that even plumbing commands like "git diff-tree --pretty" might colorize the output. Nobody seems to have complained in the intervening years, presumably because the "is stdout a tty" check does a good job of catching the right cases. But that leaves an interesting curiosity: color.ui defaults to auto even in plumbing, but you can't actually _disable_ the color via config. So if you really hate color and set "color.ui" to false, diff-tree will still show color (but porcelain like git-diff won't). Nobody noticed that either, probably because very few people disable color. One could argue that the plumbing should _always_ disable color unless an explicit --color option is given on the command line. But in practice, this creates a lot of complications for scripts which do want plumbing to show user-visible output. They can't just pass "--color" blindly; they need to check the user's config and decide what to send. Given that nobody has complained about the current behavior, let's assume it's a good path, and follow it to its conclusion: supporting color.ui everywhere. Note that you can create havoc by setting color.ui=always in your config, but that's more or less already the case. We could disallow it entirely, but it is handy for one-offs like: git -c color.ui=always foo >not-a-tty when "foo" does not take a --color option itself.

Some people feel the default set of colors used by "git log --graph" rather limiting. A mechanism to customize the set of colors has been introduced. * nd/log-graph-configurable-colors: document behavior of empty color name color_parse_mem: allow empty color spec log --graph: customize the graph lines with config log.graphColors color.c: trim leading spaces in color_parse_mem() color.c: fix color_parse_mem() with value_len == 0
2017-01-31color_parse_mem: allow empty color specLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+4
Prior to c2f41bf52 (color.c: fix color_parse_mem() with value_len == 0, 2017-01-19), the empty string was interpreted as a color "reset". This was an accidental outcome, and that commit turned it into an error. However, scripts may pass the empty string as a default value to "git config --get-color" to disable color when the value is not defined. The git-add--interactive script does this. As a result, the script is unusable since c2f41bf52 unless you have color.diff.plain defined (if it is defined, then we don't parse the empty default at all). Our test scripts didn't notice the recent breakage because they run without a terminal, and thus without color. They never hit this code path at all. And nobody noticed the original buggy "reset" behavior, because it was effectively a noop. Let's fix the code to have an empty color name produce an empty sequence of color codes. The tests need a few fixups: - we'll add a new test in t4026 to cover this case. But note that we need to tweak the color() helper. While we're there, let's factor out the literal ANSI ESC character. Otherwise it makes the diff quite hard to read. - we'll add a basic sanity-check in t4026 that "git add -p" works at all when color is enabled. That would have caught this bug, as well as any others that are specific to the color code paths. - 73c727d69 (log --graph: customize the graph lines with config log.graphColors, 2017-01-19) added a test to t4202 that checks some "invalid" graph color config. Since ",, blue" before yielded only "blue" as valid, and now yields "empty, empty, blue", we don't match the expected output. One way to fix this would be to change the expectation to the empty color strings. But that makes the test much less interesting, since we show only two graph lines, both of which would be colorless. Since the empty-string case is now covered by t4026, let's remove them entirely here. They're just in the way of the primary thing the test is supposed to be checking.

2016-08-31color_parse_mem: initialize "struct color" temporaryLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
Compiling color.c with gcc 6.2.0 using -O3 produces some -Wmaybe-uninitialized false positives: color.c: In function ‘color_parse_mem’: color.c:189:10: warning: ‘bg.blue’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] out += xsnprintf(out, len, "%c8;2;%d;%d;%d", type, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ c->red, c->green, c->blue); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ color.c:208:15: note: ‘bg.blue’ was declared here struct color bg = { COLOR_UNSPECIFIED }; ^~ [ditto for bg.green, bg.red, fg.blue, etc] This is doubly confusing, because the declaration shows it being initialized! Even though we do not explicitly initialize the color components, an incomplete initializer sets the unmentioned members to zero. What the warning doesn't show is that we later do this: struct color c; if (!parse_color(&c, ...)) { if (fg.type == COLOR_UNSPECIFIED) fg = c; ... } gcc is clever enough to realize that a struct assignment from an uninitialized variable taints the destination. But unfortunately it's _not_ clever enough to realize that we only look at those members when type is set to COLOR_RGB, in which case they are always initialized. With -O2, gcc does not look into parse_color() and must assume that "c" emerges fully initialized. With -O3, it inlines parse_color(), and learns just enough to get confused. We can silence the false positive by initializing the temporary "c". This also future-proofs us against violating the type assumptions (the result would probably still be buggy, but in a deterministic way).

2016-06-23color: refactor parse_attrLibravatar Jeff King1-10/+21
The list of attributes we recognize is a bit unwieldy, as we actually have two arrays that must be kept in sync. Instead, let's have a single array-of-struct to represent our mapping. That means we can never have an accident that causes us to read off the end of an array, and it makes diffs for adding new attributes much easier to read. This also makes it easy to handle the "no" cases without having to repeat each attribute (this shortens the list, making it easier to read, but also also cuts the size of our linear search in half). Technically this makes it impossible for us to add an attribute that starts with "no" (we could confuse "nobody" for the negation of "body"), but since this is a constrained set of attributes, that's OK. Since we can also store the length of each name in the struct, that makes it easy for us to avoid reading past the "len" parameter given to us (though in practice it was not a bug, since all of our current callers are interested in a subset of a NUL-terminated buffer, not a true undelimited range of memory).

2015-10-05color: add color_set helper for copying raw colorsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
To set up default colors, we sometimes strcpy() from the default string literals into our color buffers. This isn't a bug (assuming the destination is COLOR_MAXLEN bytes), but makes it harder to audit the code for problematic strcpy calls. Let's introduce a color_set which copies under the assumption that there are COLOR_MAXLEN bytes in the destination (of course you can call it on a smaller buffer, so this isn't providing a huge amount of safety, but it's more convenient than calling xsnprintf yourself).

They are constants that are only used in one place (since the whole point of 695d95d was to avoid repeating ourselves).

2014-11-20parse_color: recognize "no$foo" to clear the $foo attributeLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+5
You can turn on ANSI text attributes like "reverse" by putting "reverse" in your color spec. However, you cannot ask to turn reverse off. For common cases, this does not matter. You would turn on "reverse" at the start of a colored section, and then clear all attributes with a "reset". However, you may wish to turn on some attributes, then selectively disable others. For example: git log --format="%C(bold ul yellow)%h%C(noul) %s" underlines just the hash, but without the need to re-specify the rest of the attributes. This can also help third-party programs, like contrib/diff-highlight, that want to turn some attribute on/off without disrupting existing coloring. Note that some attribute specifications are probably nonsensical (e.g., "bold nobold"). We do not bother to flag such constructs, and instead let the terminal sort it out.

2014-11-20parse_color: refactor color storageLibravatar Jeff King1-32/+106
When we parse a color name like "red" into its ANSI color value, we pack the storage into a single int that may take on many values: 1. If it's "-2", no value has been specified. 2. If it's "-1", the value is "normal" (i.e., no color). 3. If it's 0 through 7, the value is a standard ANSI color. 4. If it's larger (up to 255), it is a 256-color extended value. Given these magic numbers, it is often hard to see what is going on in the code. Let's refactor this into a struct with a flag that tells which scheme we are using, along with a numeric value. This is more verbose, but should hopefully be simpler to follow. It will also allow us to easily add support for more schemes, like 24-bit RGB values. The result is also slightly less efficient to store, but that's OK; we only store this intermediate state during the parse, after which we write out the actual ANSI bytes.

2014-10-14color_parse: do not mention variable name in error messageLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+6
Originally the color-parsing function was used only for config variables. It made sense to pass the variable name so that the die() message could be something like: $ git -c color.branch.plain=bogus branch fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable 'color.branch.plain' These days we call it in other contexts, and the resulting error messages are a little confusing: $ git log --pretty='%C(bogus)' fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable '--pretty format' $ git config --get-color foo.bar bogus fatal: bad color value 'bogus' for variable 'command line' This patch teaches color_parse to complain only about the value, and then return an error code. Config callers can then propagate that up to the config parser, which mentions the variable name. Other callers can provide a custom message. After this patch these three cases now look like: $ git -c color.branch.plain=bogus branch error: invalid color value: bogus fatal: unable to parse 'color.branch.plain' from command-line config $ git log --pretty='%C(bogus)' error: invalid color value: bogus fatal: unable to parse --pretty format $ git config --get-color foo.bar bogus error: invalid color value: bogus fatal: unable to parse default color value Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-06-10make color.ui default to 'auto'Libravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+1
Most users seem to like having colors enabled, and colors can help beginners to understand the output of some commands (e.g. notice immediately the boundary between commits in the output of "git log"). Many tutorials tell the users to set color.ui=auto as a very first step, which tend to indicate that color.ui=none is not the recommanded value, hence should not be the default. These tutorials would benefit from skipping this step and starting the real Git manipulations earlier. Other beginners do not know about color.ui=auto, and may not discover it by themselves, hence live with black&white outputs while they may have preferred colors. A few people (e.g. color-blind) prefer having no colors, but they can easily set color.ui=never for this (and googling "disable colors in git" already tells them how to do so), but this needs not occupy space in beginner-oriented documentations. A transition period with Git emitting a warning when color.ui is unset would be possible, but the discomfort of having the warning seems superior to the benefit: users may be surprised by the change, but not harmed by it. The default value is changed, and the documentation is reworded to mention "color.ui=false" first, since the primary use of color.ui after this change is to disable colors, not to enable it.

2011-08-19want_color: automatically fallback to color.uiLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+5
All of the "do we want color" flags default to -1 to indicate that we don't have any color configured. This value is handled in one of two ways: 1. In porcelain, we check early on whether the value is still -1 after reading the config, and set it to the value of color.ui (which defaults to 0). 2. In plumbing, it stays untouched as -1, and want_color defaults it to off. This works fine, but means that every porcelain has to check and reassign its color flag. Now that want_color gives us a place to put this check in a single spot, we can do that, simplifying the calling code.

2011-08-19diff: don't load color config in plumbingLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+9
The diff config callback is split into two functions: one which loads "ui" config, and one which loads "basic" config. The former chains to the latter, as the diff UI config is a superset of the plumbing config. The color.diff variable is only loaded in the UI config. However, the basic config actually chains to git_color_default_config, which loads color.ui. This doesn't actually cause any bugs, because the plumbing diff code does not actually look at the value of color.ui. However, it is somewhat nonsensical, and it makes it difficult to refactor the color code. It probably came about because there is no git_color_config to load only color config, but rather just git_color_default_config, which loads color config and chains to git_default_config. This patch splits out the color-specific portion of git_color_default_config so that the diff UI config can call it directly. This is perhaps better explained by the chaining of callbacks. Before we had: git_diff_ui_config -> git_diff_basic_config -> git_color_default_config -> git_default_config Now we have: git_diff_ui_config -> git_color_config -> git_diff_basic_config -> git_default_config Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-08-19color: delay auto-color decision until point of useLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+18
When we read a color value either from a config file or from the command line, we use git_config_colorbool to convert it from the tristate always/never/auto into a single yes/no boolean value. This has some timing implications with respect to starting a pager. If we start (or decide not to start) the pager before checking the colorbool, everything is fine. Either isatty(1) will give us the right information, or we will properly check for pager_in_use(). However, if we decide to start a pager after we have checked the colorbool, things are not so simple. If stdout is a tty, then we will have already decided to use color. However, the user may also have configured color.pager not to use color with the pager. In this case, we need to actually turn off color. Unfortunately, the pager code has no idea which color variables were turned on (and there are many of them throughout the code, and they may even have been manipulated after the colorbool selection by something like "--color" on the command line). This bug can be seen any time a pager is started after config and command line options are checked. This has affected "git diff" since 89d07f7 (diff: don't run pager if user asked for a diff style exit code, 2007-08-12). It has also affect the log family since 1fda91b (Fix 'git log' early pager startup error case, 2010-08-24). This patch splits the notion of parsing a colorbool and actually checking the configuration. The "use_color" variables now have an additional possible value, GIT_COLOR_AUTO. Users of the variable should use the new "want_color()" wrapper, which will lazily determine and cache the auto-color decision.

This gives it the same behavior as we had prior to 1d28232 (status: show branchname with a configurable color). To do this we need the concept of a "NIL" color, which is provided by color.[ch]. The implementation is very simple; in particular, there are no precautions taken against code accidentally printing the NIL. This should be fine in practice because: 1. You can't input a NIL color in the config, so it must come from the in-code defaults. Which means it is up the client code to handle the NILs it defines. 2.

This teaches the --color-words engine a more general interface that supports two new modes: * --word-diff=plain, inspired by the 'wdiff' utility (most similar to 'wdiff -n <old> <new>'): uses delimiters [-removed-] and {+added+} * --word-diff=porcelain, which generates an ad-hoc machine readable format: - each diff unit is prefixed by [-+ ] and terminated by newline as in unified diff - newlines in the input are output as a line consisting only of a tilde '~' Both of these formats still support color if it is enabled, using it to highlight the differences. --color-words becomes a synonym for --word-diff=color, which is the color-only format.

2010-02-18Add an optional argument for --color optionsLibravatar Mark Lodato1-0/+3
Make git-branch, git-show-branch, git-grep, and all the diff-based programs accept an optional argument <when> for --color. The argument is a colorbool: "always", "never", or "auto". If no argument is given, "always" is used; --no-color is an alias for --color=never. This makes the command-line interface consistent with other GNU tools, such as `ls' and `grep', and with the git-config color options. Note that, without an argument, --color and --no-color work exactly as before. To implement this, two internal changes were made: 1. Allow the first argument of git_config_colorbool() to be NULL, in which case it returns -1 if the argument isn't "always", "never", or "auto". 2. Add OPT_COLOR_FLAG(), OPT__COLOR(), and parse_opt_color_flag_cb() to the option parsing library. The callback uses git_config_colorbool(), so color.h is now a dependency of parse-options.c.

2009-01-19Optimize color_parse_memLibravatar René Scharfe1-17/+21
Commit 5ef8d77a implemented color_parse_mem, a function for parsing colors from a non-NUL-terminated string, by simply allocating a new NUL-terminated string and calling color_parse. This had a small but measurable speed impact on a user format that used the advanced color parsing. E.g., # uses quick parsing $ time ./git log --pretty=tformat:'%Credfoo%Creset' >/dev/null real 0m0.673s user 0m0.652s sys 0m0.016s # uses color_parse_mem $ time ./git log --pretty=tformat:'%C(red)foo%C(reset)' >/dev/null real 0m0.692s user 0m0.660s sys 0m0.032s This patch implements color_parse_mem as the primary function, with color_parse as a wrapper for strings. This gives comparable timings to the first case above. Original patch by René. Commit message and debugging by Jeff King.

2009-01-17color: make it easier for non-config to parse color specsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+8
We have very featureful color-parsing routines which are used for color.diff.* and other options. Let's make it easier to use those routines from other parts of the code. This patch adds a color_parse_mem() helper function which takes a length-bounded string instead of a NUL-terminated one. While the helper is only a few lines long, it is nice to abstract this out so that: - callers don't forget to free() the temporary buffer - right now, it is implemented in terms of color_parse(). But it would be more efficient to reverse this and implement color_parse in terms of color_parse_mem. This also changes the error string for an invalid color not to mention the word "config", since it is not always appropriate (and when it is, the context is obvious since the offending config variable is given). Finally, while we are in the area, we clean up the parameter names in the declaration of color_parse; the var and value parameters were reversed from the actual implementation.

2009-01-17Add color_fwrite_lines(), a function coloring each line individuallyLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+28
We have to set the color before every line and reset it before every newline. Add a function color_fwrite_lines() which does that for us. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-05-14Provide git_config with a callback-data parameterLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+2
git_config() only had a function parameter, but no callback data parameter. This assumes that all callback functions only modify global variables. With this patch, every callback gets a void * parameter, and it is hoped that this will help the libification effort.

2007-12-11Support GIT_PAGER_IN_USE environment variableLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When deciding whether or not to turn on automatic color support, git_config_colorbool checks whether stdout is a tty. However, because we run a pager, if stdout is not a tty, we must check whether it is because we started the pager. This used to be done by checking the pager_in_use variable. This variable was set only when the git program being run started the pager; there was no way for an external program running git indicate that it had already started a pager. This patch allows a program to set GIT_PAGER_IN_USE to a true value to indicate that even though stdout is not a tty, it is because a pager is being used.

2007-12-05git config --get-colorboolLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+4
This adds an option to help scripts find out color settings from the configuration file. git config --get-colorbool color.diff inspects color.diff variable, and exits with status 0 (i.e. success) if color is to be used. It exits with status 1 otherwise. If a script wants "true"/"false" answer to the standard output of the command, it can pass an additional boolean parameter to its command line, telling if its standard output is a terminal, like this: git config --get-colorbool color.diff true When called like this, the command outputs "true" to its standard output if color is to be used (i.e. "color.diff" says "always", "auto", or "true"), and "false" otherwise.

2007-11-28"color.diff = true" is not "always" anymore.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-13/+19
Too many people got burned by setting color.diff and color.status to true when they really should have set it to "auto". This makes only "always" to do the unconditional colorization, and change the meaning of "true" to the same as "auto": colorize only when we are talking to a terminal.

2006-12-20simplify inclusion of system header files.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+1
This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include system header files. (1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and xdelta code are exempt from the following rules; (2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h, builtin.h, pkt-line.h); (3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h" need not be included in individual C source files. (4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem specific header files (e.g. expat.h). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
