2021-01-23Remove support for v1 of the PCRE libraryLibravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-4/+0
Remove support for using version 1 of the PCRE library. Its use has been discouraged by upstream for a long time, and it's in a bugfix-only state. Anyone who was relying on v1 in particular got a nudge to move to v2 in e6c531b808 (Makefile: make USE_LIBPCRE=YesPlease mean v2, not v1, 2018-03-11), which was first released as part of v2.18.0. With this the LIBPCRE2 test prerequisites is redundant to PCRE. But I'm keeping it for self-documentation purposes, and to avoid conflict with other in-flight PCRE patches. I'm also not changing all of our own "pcre2" names to "pcre", i.e. the inverse of 6d4b5747f0 (grep: change internal *pcre* variable & function names to be *pcre1*, 2017-05-25). I don't see the point, and it makes the history/blame harder to read. Maybe if there's ever a PCRE v3...

2020-12-04ci(vs-build): stop passing the iconv library location explicitlyLibravatar Dennis Ameling1-1/+1
Something changed in `vcpkg` (which we use in our Visual C++ build to provide the dependencies such as libcurl) and our `vs-build` job started failing in CI. The reason is that we had a work-around in place to help CMake find iconv, and this work-around is neither needed nor does it work anymore.

2020-09-30cmake (Windows): initialize vcpkg/build dependencies automaticallyLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+4
The idea of having CMake support in Git's source tree is to enable contributors on Windows to start contributing with little effort. To that end, we just added some sensible defaults that will let users open the worktree in Visual Studio and start building. This expects the dependencies (such as zlib) to be available already, though. If they are not available, we expect the user to run `compat/vcbuild/vcpkg_install.bat`. Rather than requiring this step to be manual, detect the situation and run it as part of the CMake configuration step. Note that this obviously only applies to the scenario when we want to compile in Visual Studio (i.e. with MS Visual C), not with GCC. Therefore, we guard this new code block behind the `MSVC` conditional. This concludes our journey to make it as effortless as possible to start developing Git in Visual Studio: all the developer needs to do is to clone Git's repository, open the worktree via `File>Open>Folder...` and wait for CMake to finish configuring.

2020-08-13drop vcs-svn experimentLibravatar Jeff King1-21/+5
The code in vcs-svn was started in 2010 as an attempt to build a remote-helper for interacting with svn repositories (as opposed to git-svn). However, we never got as far as shipping a mature remote helper, and the last substantive commit was e99d012a6bc in 2012. We do have a git-remote-testsvn, and it is even installed as part of "make install". But given the name, it seems unlikely to be used by anybody (you'd have to explicitly "git clone testsvn::$url", and there have been zero mentions of that on the mailing list since 2013, and even that includes the phrase "you might need to hack a bit to get it working properly"[1]). We also ship contrib/svn-fe, which builds on the vcs-svn work. However, it does not seem to build out of the box for me, as the link step misses some required libraries for using libgit.a. Curiously, the original build breakage bisects for me to eff80a9fd9 (Allow custom "comment char", 2013-01-16), which seems unrelated. There was an attempt to fix it in da011cb0e7 (contrib/svn-fe: fix Makefile, 2014-08-28), but on my system that only switches the error message. So it seems like the result is not really usable by anybody in practice. It would be wonderful if somebody wanted to pick up the topic again, and potentially it's worth carrying around for that reason. But the flip side is that people doing tree-wide operations have to deal with this code. And you can see the list with (replace "HEAD" with this commit as appropriate): { echo "--" git diff-tree --diff-filter=D -r --name-only HEAD^ HEAD } | git log --no-merges --oneline e99d012a6bc.. --stdin which shows 58 times somebody had to deal with the code, generally due to a compile or test failure, or a tree-wide style fix or API change. Let's drop it and let anybody who wants to pick it up do so by resurrecting it from the git history. As a bonus, this also reduces the size of a stripped installation of Git from 21MB to 19MB.

2020-08-13make credential helpers builtinsLibravatar Jeff King1-19/+1
There's no real reason for credential helpers to be separate binaries. I did them this way originally under the notion that helper don't _need_ to be part of Git, and so can be built totally separately (and indeed, the ones in contrib/credential are). But the ones in our main Makefile build on libgit.a, and the resulting binaries are reasonably large. We can slim down our total disk footprint by just making them builtins. This reduces the size of: make strip install from 29MB to 24MB on my Debian system. Note that credential-cache can't operate without support for Unix sockets. Currently we just don't build it at all when NO_UNIX_SOCKETS is set. We could continue that with conditionals in the Makefile and our list of builtins. But instead, let's build a dummy implementation that dies with an informative message. That has two advantages: - it's simpler, because the conditional bits are all kept inside the credential-cache source - a user who is expecting it to exist will be told _why_ they can't use it, rather than getting the "credential-cache is not a git command" error which makes it look like the Git install is broken. Note that our dummy implementation does still respond to "-h" in order to appease t0012 (and this may be a little friendlier for users, as well).

2020-06-26cmake: support for building git on windows with msvc and clang.Libravatar Sibi Siddharthan1-10/+45
This patch adds support for Visual Studio and Clang builds The minimum required version of CMake is upgraded to 3.15 because this version offers proper support for Clang builds on Windows. Libintl is not searched for when building with Visual Studio or Clang because there is no binary compatible version available yet. NOTE: In the link options invalidcontinue.obj has to be included. The reason for this is because by default, Windows calls abort()'s instead of setting errno=EINVAL when invalid arguments are passed to standard functions.

2020-06-26cmake: support for testing git with ctestLibravatar Sibi Siddharthan1-0/+124
This patch provides an alternate way to test git using ctest. CTest ships with CMake, so there is no additional dependency being introduced. To perform the tests with ctest do this after building: ctest -j[number of jobs] NOTE: -j is optional, the default number of jobs is 1 Each of the jobs does this: cd t/ && sh t[something].sh The reason for using CTest is that it logs the output of the tests in a neat way, which can be helpful during diagnosis of failures. After the tests have run ctest generates three log files located in `build-directory`/Testing/Temporary/ These log files are: CTestCostData.txt: This file contains the time taken to complete each test. LastTestsFailed.log: This log file contains the names of the tests that have failed in the run. LastTest.log: This log file contains the log of all the tests that have run.

2020-06-12Introduce CMake support for configuring GitLibravatar Sibi Siddharthan1-0/+592
At the moment, the recommended way to configure Git's builds is to simply run `make`. If that does not work, the recommended strategy is to look at the top of the `Makefile` to see whether any "Makefile knob" has to be turned on/off, e.g. `make NO_OPENSSL=YesPlease`. Alternatively, Git also has an `autoconf` setup which allows configuring builds via `./configure [<option>...]`. Both of these options are fine if the developer works on Unix or Linux. But on Windows, we have to jump through hoops to configure a build (read: we force the user to install a full Git for Windows SDK, which occupies around two gigabytes (!) on disk and downloads about three quarters of a gigabyte worth of Git objects). The build infrastructure for Git is written around being able to run make, which is not supported natively on Windows. To help Windows developers a CMake build script is introduced here. With a working support CMake, developers on Windows need only install CMake, configure their build, load the generated Visual Studio solution and immediately start modifying the code and build their own version of Git. Likewise, developers on other platforms can use the convenient GUI tools provided by CMake to configure their build. So let's start building CMake support for Git. This is only the first step, and to make it easier to review, it only allows for configuring builds on the platform that is easiest to configure for: Linux. The CMake script checks whether the headers are present(eg. libgen.h), whether the functions are present(eg. memmem), whether the funtions work properly (eg. snprintf) and generate the required compile definitions for the platform. The script also searches for the required libraries, if it fails to find the required libraries the respective executables won't be built.(eg. If libcurl is not found then git-remote-http won't be built). This will help building Git easier. With a CMake script an out of source build of git is possible resulting in a clean source tree. Note: this patch asks for the minimum version v3.14 of CMake (which is not all that old as of time of writing) because that is the first version to offer a platform-independent way to generate hardlinks as part of the build. This is needed to generate all those hardlinks for the built-in commands of Git. Signed-off-by: Sibi Siddharthan <sibisiddharthan.github@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-09-28contrib/buildsystems: fix Visual Studio Debug configurationLibravatar Alexandr Miloslavskiy1-7/+8
Even though Debug configuration builds, the resulting build is incorrect in a subtle way: it mixes up Debug and Release binaries, which in turn causes hard-to-predict bugs. In my case, when git calls iconv library, iconv sets 'errno' and git then tests it, but in Debug and Release CRT those 'errno' are different memory locations. This patch addresses 3 connected bugs: 1) Typo in '\(Configuration)'. As a result, Debug configuration condition is always false and Release path is taken instead. 2) Regexp that replaced 'zlib.lib' with 'zlibd.lib' was only affecting the first occurrence. However, some projects have it listed twice. Previously this bug was hidden, because Debug path was never taken. I decided that avoiding double -lz in makefile is fragile and I'd better replace all occurrences instead. 3) In Debug, 'libcurl-d.lib' should be used instead of 'libcurl.lib'. Previously this bug was hidden, because Debug path was never taken.

2019-07-29msvc: add a Makefile target to pre-generate the Visual Studio solutionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+2
The entire idea of generating the VS solution makes only sense if we generate it via Continuous Integration; otherwise potential users would still have to download the entire Git for Windows SDK. If we pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, Git can be built entirely within Visual Studio, and the test scripts can be run in a regular Git for Windows (e.g. the Portable Git flavor, which does not include a full GCC toolchain and therefore weighs only about a tenth of Git for Windows' SDK). So let's just add a target in the Makefile that can be used to generate said solution; The generated files will then be committed so that they can be pushed to a branch ready to check out by Visual Studio users. To make things even more useful, we also generate and commit other files that are required to run the test suite, such as templates and bin-wrappers: with this, developers can run the test suite in a regular Git Bash after building the solution in Visual Studio. Note: for this build target, we do not actually need to initialize the `vcpkg` system, so we don't.

The support scripts were introduced in the `jh/msvc` patch series, and with this patch we initialize the `vcpkg` conditionally, in the `libgit` project's `PreBuildEvent`. To allow for parallel building of the projects, we therefore put `libgit` at the bottom of the project hierarchy.

2019-07-29contrib/buildsystems: error out on unknown optionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+2
One time too many did this developer call the `generate` script passing a `--make-out=<PATH>` option that was happily ignored (because there should be a space, not an equal sign, between `--make-out` and the path). And one time too many, this script not only ignored it but did not even complain. Let's fix that.

2019-07-29contrib/buildsystems: optionally capture the dry-run in a fileLibravatar Philip Oakley1-0/+10
Add an option for capturing the output of the make dry-run used in determining the msvc-build structure for easy debugging. You can use the output of `--make-out <path>` in subsequent runs via the `--in <path>` option.

2019-07-29contrib/buildsystems: redirect errors of the dry run into a log fileLibravatar Philip Oakley1-1/+6
Rather than swallowing the errors, it is better to have them in a file. To make it obvious what this is about, use the file name 'msvc-build-makedryerrors.txt'. Further, if the output is empty, simply delete that file. As we target Git for Windows' SDK (which, unlike its predecessor msysGit, offers Perl versions newer than 5.8), we can use the quite readable syntax `if -f -z $ErrsFile` (available in Perl >=5.10). Note that the file will contain the new values of the GIT_VERSION and GITGUI_VERSION if they were generated by the make file. They are omitted if the release is tagged and indentically defined in their respective GIT_VERSION_GEN file DEF_VER variables.

2019-07-29contrib/buildsystems: ignore gettext stuffLibravatar Philip Oakley1-0/+6
Git's build contains steps to handle internationalization. This caused hiccups in the parser used to generate QMake/Visual Studio project files. As those steps are irrelevant in this context, let's just ignore them.

2019-07-29contrib/buildsystems: handle quoted spaces in filenamesLibravatar Philip Oakley1-3/+4
The engine.pl script expects file names not to contain spaces. However, paths with spaces are quite prevalent on Windows. Use shellwords() rather than split() to parse them correctly.

2019-07-29contrib/buildsystems: ignore irrelevant files in Generators/Libravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1

2019-07-29contrib/buildsystems: ignore invalidcontinue.objLibravatar Philip Oakley1-3/+7
Since 4b623d8 (MSVC: link in invalidcontinue.obj for better POSIX compatibility, 2014-03-29), invalidcontinue.obj is linked in the MSVC build, but it was not parsed correctly by the buildsystem. Ignore it, as it is known to Visual Studio and will be handled elsewhere. Also only substitute filenames ending with .o when generating the source .c filename, otherwise we would start to expect .cbj files to generate .obj files (which are not generated by our build)... In the future there may be source files that produce .obj files so keep the two issues (.obj files with & without source files) separate.

2019-07-29Vcproj.pm: list git.exe first to be startup projectLibravatar Philip Oakley1-14/+19
Visual Studio takes the first listed application/library as the default startup project [1]. Detect the 'git' project and place it at the head of the project list, rather than at the tail. Export the apps list before libs list for both the projects and global structures of the .sln file. [1] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1238553/ vs2008-where-is-the-startup-project-setting-stored-for-a-solution "In the solution file, there are a list of pseudo-XML "Project" entries. It turns out that whatever is the first one ends up as the Startup Project, unless it’s overridden in the suo file. Argh. I just rearranged the order in the file and it’s good." "just moving the pseudo-xml isn't enough. You also have to move the group of entries in the "GlobalSection(ProjectConfigurationPlatforms) = postSolution" group that has the GUID of the project you moved to the top. So there are two places to move lines."

2019-07-29Vcproj.pm: auto-generate GUIDsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-57/+9
We ran out GUIDs. Again. But there is no need to: we can generate them semi-randomly from the target file name of the project. Note: the Vcproj generator is probably only interesting for historical reasons; nevertheless, the upcoming Vcxproj generator (to support modern Visual Studio versions) is based on the Vcproj generator and it is better to fix this here first.

2010-01-22msvc: Fix an "unrecognized option" linker warningLibravatar Ramsay Jones1-0/+1
Having recently added support for building git-imap-send on Windows, we now link against OpenSSL libraries, and the linker issues the following warning: warning LNK4044: unrecognized option '/lssl'; ignored In order to suppress the warning, we change the msvc linker script to translate an '-lssl' parameter to the ssleay32.lib library. Note that the linker script was already including ssleay32.lib (along with libeay32.lib) as part of the translation of the '-lcrypto' library parameter. However, libeay32.dll does not depend on ssleay32.dll and can be used stand-alone, so we remove ssleay32.lib from the '-lcrypto' translation. The dependence of ssleay32.dll on libeay32.dll is represented in the Makefile by the NEEDS_CRYPTO_WITH_SSL build variable. Also, add the corresponding change to the buildsystem generator.
