2015-08-31Merge branch 'jk/fix-alias-pager-config-key-warnings'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+29
Because the configuration system does not allow "alias.0foo" and "pager.0foo" as the configuration key, the user cannot use '0foo' as a custom command name anyway, but "git 0foo" tried to look these keys up and emitted useless warnings before saying '0foo is not a git command'. These warning messages have been squelched. * jk/fix-alias-pager-config-key-warnings: config: silence warnings for command names with invalid keys

2015-08-24config: silence warnings for command names with invalid keysLibravatar Jeff King1-10/+29
When we are running the git command "foo", we may have to look up the config keys "pager.foo" and "alias.foo". These config schemes are mis-designed, as the command names can be anything, but the config syntax has some restrictions. For example: $ git foo_bar error: invalid key: pager.foo_bar error: invalid key: alias.foo_bar git: 'foo_bar' is not a git command. See 'git --help'. You cannot name an alias with an underscore. And if you have an external command with one, you cannot configure its pager. In the long run, we may develop a different config scheme for these features. But in the near term (and because we'll need to support the existing scheme indefinitely), we should at least squelch the error messages shown above. These errors come from git_config_parse_key. Ideally we would pass a "quiet" flag to the config machinery, but there are many layers between the pager code and the key parsing. Passing a flag through all of those would be an invasive change. Instead, let's provide a config function to report on whether a key is syntactically valid, and have the pager and alias code skip lookup for bogus keys. We can build this easily around the existing git_config_parse_key, with two minor modifications: 1. We now handle a NULL store_key, to validate but not write out the normalized key. 2. We accept a "quiet" flag to avoid writing to stderr. This doesn't need to be a full-blown public "flags" field, because we can make the existing implementation a static helper function, keeping the mess contained inside config.c.

2015-05-28config.c: avoid xmmap error messagesLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+9
The config-writing code uses xmmap to map the existing config file, which will die if the map fails. This has two downsides: 1. The error message is not very helpful, as it lacks any context about the file we are mapping: $ mkdir foo $ git config --file=foo some.key value fatal: Out of memory? mmap failed: No such device 2. We normally do not die in this code path; instead, we'd rather report the error and return an appropriate exit status (which is part of the public interface documented in git-config.1). This patch introduces a "gentle" form of xmmap which lets us produce our own error message. We do not want to use mmap directly, because we would like to use the other compatibility elements of xmmap (e.g., handling 0-length maps portably). The end result is: $ git.compile config --file=foo some.key value error: unable to mmap 'foo': No such device $ echo $? 3 Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-04-16config: use getc_unlocked when reading from fileLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+3
We read config files character-by-character from a stdio handle using fgetc(). This incurs significant locking overhead, even though we know that only one thread can possibly access the handle. We can speed this up by taking the lock ourselves, and then using getc_unlocked to read each character. On a silly pathological case: perl -le ' print "[core]"; print "key$_ = value$_" for (1..1000000) ' >input git config -f input core.key1 this dropped the time to run git-config from: real 0m0.263s user 0m0.260s sys 0m0.000s to: real 0m0.159s user 0m0.152s sys 0m0.004s for a savings of 39%.

2015-02-05config_buf_ungetc: warn when pushing back a random characterLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+6
Our config code simulates a stdio stream around a buffer, but our fake ungetc() does not behave quite like the real one. In particular, we only rewind the position by one character, but do _not_ actually put the character from the caller into position. It turns out that this does not matter, because we only ever push back the character we just read. In other words, such an assignment would be a noop. But because the function is called ungetc, and because it takes a character parameter, it is a mistake waiting to happen. Actually assigning the character into the buffer would be ideal, but our pointer is actually a "const" copy of the buffer. We do not know who the real owner of the buffer is in this code, and would not want to munge their contents. Instead, we can simply add an assertion that matches what the current caller does, and will let us know if new callers are added that violate the contract.

2015-02-05config: do not ungetc EOFLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+2
When we are parsing a config value, if we see a carriage return, we fgetc the next character to see if it is a line feed (in which case we silently drop the CR). If it isn't, we then ungetc the character, and take the literal CR. But we never check whether we in fact got a character at all. If the config file ends in CR, we will get EOF here, and try to ungetc EOF. This works OK for a real stdio stream. The ungetc returns an error, and the next fgetc will then return EOF again. However, our custom buffer-based stream is not so fortunate. It happily rewinds the position of the stream by one character, ignoring the fact that we fed it EOF. The next fgetc call returns the final CR again, over and over, and we end up in an infinite loop. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This replaces "x ? xstrdup(x) : NULL" with xstrdup_or_null(x). The change is fairly mechanical, with the exception of resolve_refdup, which can eliminate a temporary variable. There are still a few hits grepping for "?.*xstrdup", but these are of slightly different forms and cannot be converted (e.g., "x ? xstrdup(x->foo) : NULL").

2014-12-17read-cache: optionally disallow NTFS .git variantsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+5
The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the repository directory. But this means we need to respect the filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path(). We make this check optional for two reasons: 1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32. In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as the restricted names are rather obscure and almost certainly would never come up in practice. 2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we insert into the index. This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows, we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows, though.

For now, we still make sure to allocate at least PATH_MAX characters for the strbuf because resolve_symlink() doesn't know how to expand the space for its return value. (That will be fixed in a moment.) Another alternative would be to just use a strbuf as scratch space in lock_file() but then store a pointer to the naked string in struct lock_file. But lock_file objects are often reused. By reusing the same strbuf, we can avoid having to reallocate the string most times when a lock_file object is reused.

Use the new caching config-set API in git_config() calls. * ta/config-set-1: add tests for `git_config_get_string_const()` add a test for semantic errors in config files rewrite git_config() to use the config-set API config: add `git_die_config()` to the config-set API change `git_config()` return value to void add line number and file name info to `config_set` config.c: fix accuracy of line number in errors config.c: mark error and warnings strings for translation
