2016-07-20check_connected: add progress flagLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
Connectivity checks have to traverse the entire object graph in the worst case (e.g., a full clone or a full push). For large repositories like linux.git, this can take 30-60 seconds, during which time git may produce little or no output. Let's add the option of showing progress, which is taken care of by rev-list. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-07-20check_connected: relay errors to alternate descriptorLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+9
Unless the "quiet" flag is given, check_connected sends any errors to the stderr of the caller (because the child rev-list inherits that descriptor). However, server-side callers may want to send these over a sideband channel instead. Let's make that possible.

2016-07-20check_everything_connected: use a struct with named optionsLibravatar Jeff King1-28/+11
The number of variants of check_everything_connected has grown over the years, so that the "real" function takes several possibly-zero, possibly-NULL arguments. We hid the complexity behind some wrapper functions, but this doesn't scale well when we want to add new options. If we add more wrapper variants to handle the new options, then we can get a combinatorial explosion when those options might be used together (right now nobody wants to use both "shallow" and "transport" together, so we get by with just a few wrappers). If instead we add new parameters to each function, each of which can have a default value, then callers who want the defaults end up with confusing invocations like: check_everything_connected(fn, 0, data, -1, 0, NULL); where it is unclear which parameter is which (and every caller needs updated when we add new options). Instead, let's add a struct to hold all of the optional parameters. This is a little more verbose for the callers (who have to declare the struct and fill it in), but it makes their code much easier to follow, because every option is named as it is set (and unused options do not have to be mentioned at all). Note that we could also stick the iteration function and its callback data into the option struct, too. But since those are required for each call, by avoiding doing so, we can let very simple callers just pass "NULL" for the options and not worry about the struct at all. While we're touching each site, let's also rename the function to check_connected(). The existing name was quite long, and not all of the wrappers even used the full name.

2016-07-20check_everything_connected: always pass --quiet to rev-listLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+1
The check_everything_connected function takes a "quiet" parameter which does two things if non-zero: 1. redirect rev-list's stderr to /dev/null to avoid showing errors to the user 2. pass "--quiet" to rev-list Item (1) is obviously useful. But item (2) is surprisingly not. For rev-list, "--quiet" does not have anything to do with chattiness on stderr; it tells rev-list not to bother writing the list of traversed objects to stdout, for efficiency. And since we always redirect rev-list's stdout to /dev/null in this function, there is no point in asking it to ever write anything to stdout. The efficiency gains are modest; a best-of-five run of "git rev-list --objects --all" on linux.git dropped from 32.013s to 30.502s when adding "--quiet". That's only about 5%, but given how easy it is, it's worth doing. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2014-08-20run-command: introduce CHILD_PROCESS_INITLibravatar René Scharfe1-2/+1
Most struct child_process variables are cleared using memset first after declaration. Provide a macro, CHILD_PROCESS_INIT, that can be used to initialize them statically instead. That's shorter, doesn't require a function call and is slightly more readable (especially given that we already have STRBUF_INIT, ARGV_ARRAY_INIT etc.).

2014-06-30use strip_suffix instead of ends_with in simple casesLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+3
When stripping a suffix like: if (ends_with(str, "foo")) buf = xmemdupz(str, strlen(str) - 3); we can instead use strip_suffix to avoid the constant 3, which must match the literal "foo" (we sometimes use strlen("foo") instead, but that means we are repeating ourselves). The example above becomes: if (strip_suffix(str, "foo", &len)) buf = xmemdupz(str, len); This also saves a strlen(), since we calculate the string length when detecting the suffix. Note that in some cases we also switch from xstrndup to xmemdupz, which saves a further strlen call. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-01-17Merge branch 'nd/shallow-clone'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+34
Fetching from a shallow-cloned repository used to be forbidden, primarily because the codepaths involved were not carefully vetted and we did not bother supporting such usage.

2013-12-05replace {pre,suf}fixcmp() with {starts,ends}_with()Libravatar Christian Couder1-1/+1
Leaving only the function definitions and declarations so that any new topic in flight can still make use of the old functions, replace existing uses of the prefixcmp() and suffixcmp() with new API functions. The change can be recreated by mechanically applying this: $ git grep -l -e prefixcmp -e suffixcmp -- \*.c | grep -v strbuf\\.c | xargs perl -pi -e ' s|!prefixcmp\(|starts_with\(|g; s|prefixcmp\(|!starts_with\(|g; s|!suffixcmp\(|ends_with\(|g; s|suffixcmp\(|!ends_with\(|g; ' on the result of preparatory changes in this series.

2013-05-28clone: open a shortcut for connectivity checkLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+33
In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list --objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in this special case. In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...": - all refs point to an object in the pack - there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack - no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack. "index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack + rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list ..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the other side is either buggy or malicious.

This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that code path.

2012-03-15fetch/receive: remove over-pessimistic connectivity checkLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+4
Git 1.7.8 introduced an object and history re-validation step after "fetch" or "push" causes new history to be added to a receiving repository. This is to protect a malicious server or pushing client from corrupting the repository by taking advantage of an existing corrupt object that is unconnected to existing history. But this check is way over-pessimistic. During "fetch" or "receive-pack" (the server side of "push"), unpack-objects and index-pack already validate individual objects that are received, and the only thing we would want to catch are corrupted objects that already happen to exist in our repository but are not referenced from our refs. Such objects must have been written by an earlier run of our codepaths that write out loose objects or packfiles, and they must have done the validation of individual objects when they did so. The only thing left to worry about is the connectivity integrity, which can be checked with "rev-list --objects", which is much cheaper. We have been paying the 5x to 8x runtime overhead the --verify-objects often adds for no real gain. Revert check_everything_connected() not to use this over-pessimistic check. Credit goes to Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy, who originally identified the performance regression and endured multiple rounds of reviews to fix it. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
