2014-04-14prompt: fix missing file errors in zshLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-7/+14
zsh seems to have a bug while redirecting the stderr of the 'read' command: % read foo 2>/dev/null <foo zsh: no such file or directory: foo Which causes errors to be displayed when certain files are missing. Let's add a convenience function to manually check if the file is readable before calling "read".

2014-04-09completion: fix completing args of aliased "push", "fetch", etc.Libravatar Felipe Contreras2-0/+2
Some commands need the first word to determine the actual action that is being executed, however, the command is wrong when we use an alias, for example 'alias.p=push', if we try to complete 'git p origin ', the result would be wrong because __git_complete_remote_or_refspec() doesn't know where it came from. So let's override words[1], so the alias 'p' is override by the actual command, 'push'.

2013-11-26remove #!interpreter line from shell librariesLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-4/+0
In a shell snippet meant to be sourced by other shell scripts, an opening #! line does more harm than good. The harm: - When the shell library is sourced, the interpreter and options from the #! line are not used. Specifying a particular shell can confuse the reader into thinking it is safe for the shell library to rely on idiosyncrasies of that shell. - Using #! instead of a plain comment drops a helpful visual clue that this is a shell library and not a self-contained script. - Tools such as lintian can use a #! line to tell when an installation script has failed by forgetting to set a script executable. This check does not work if shell libraries also start with a #! line. The good: - Text editors notice the #! line and use it for syntax highlighting if you try to edit the installed scripts (without ".sh" suffix) in place. The use of the #! for file type detection is not needed because Git's shell libraries are meant to be edited in source form (with ".sh" suffix). Replace the opening #! lines with comments. This involves tweaking the test harness's valgrind support to find shell libraries by looking for "# " in the first line instead of "#!" (see v1.7.6-rc3~7, 2011-06-17). Suggested by Russ Allbery through lintian. Thanks to Jeff King and Clemens Buchacher for further analysis. Tested by searching for non-executable scripts with #! line: find . -name .git -prune -o -type f -not -executable | while read file do read line <"$file" case $line in '#!'*) echo "$file" ;; esac done The only remaining scripts found are templates for shell scripts (unimplemented.sh, wrap-for-bin.sh) and sample input used in tests (t/t4034/perl/{pre,post}).

2013-09-19completion: improve untracked directory filtering for filename completionLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-2/+2
Similar to Bash's default filename completion, our git-aware filename completion stops at directory boundaries, i.e. it doesn't offer the full 'path/to/file' at first, but only 'path/'. To achieve that the completion script runs 'git ls-files' with specific command line options to get the list of relevant paths under the current directory, and then processes each path to strip all but the base directory or filename (see __git_index_files()). To offer only modified and untracked files for 'git add' the completion script runs 'git ls-files --exclude-standard --others --modified'. This command lists all non-ignored files in untracked directories, which leads to a noticeable delay caused by the processing mentioned above if there are a lot of such files (__git_index_files() specifies '--exclude-standard' internally): $ mkdir untracked-dir $ for i in {1..10000} ; do >untracked-dir/$i ; done $ time __git_index_files "--others --modified" untracked-dir real 0m0.537s user 0m0.452s sys 0m0.160s Eliminate this delay by additionally passing the '--directory --no-empty-directory' options to 'git ls-files' to show only the directory name of non-empty untracked directories instead their whole content: $ time __git_index_files "--others --modified --directory --no-empty-directory" untracked-dir real 0m0.029s user 0m0.020s sys 0m0.004s Filename completion for 'git clean' suffers from the same delay, as it offers untracked files, too. The fix could be the same, but since it actually makes sense to 'git clean' empty directories, in this case we only pass the '--directory' option to 'git ls-files'.

Old Bash (3.0) which is distributed with RHEL 4.X and other ancient platforms that are still in wide use, do not have a printf that supports -v. Neither does Zsh (which is already handled in the code). As suggested by Junio, let's test whether printf supports the -v option and store the result. Then later, we can use it to determine whether 'printf -v' can be used, or whether printf must be called in a subshell.

Commit adbc0b6b ("cygwin: Use native Win32 API for stat", 30-09-2008) added a Win32 specific implementation of the stat functions. In order to handle absolute paths, cygwin mount points and symbolic links, this implementation may fall back on the standard cygwin l/stat() functions. Also, the choice of cygwin or Win32 functions is made lazily (by the first call(s) to l/stat) based on the state of some config variables. Unfortunately, this "schizophrenic stat" implementation has been the source of many problems ever since. For example, see commits 7faee6b8, 79748439, 452993c2, 085479e7, b8a97333, 924aaf3e, 05bab3ea and 0117c2f0.

2013-06-24bash prompt: mention that PROMPT_COMMAND mode is fasterLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-5/+5
__git_ps1() is usually added to the prompt inside a command substitution, imposing the overhead of fork()ing a subshell. Using __git_ps1() for $PROMPT_COMMAND is slightly faster, because it avoids that command substitution. Mention this in the comments about setting up the git prompt. The whole series speeds up the bash prompt on Windows/MSysGit considerably. Here are some timing results in three scenarios, each repeated 10 times: At the top of the work tree, before: $ time for i in {0..9} ; do prompt="$(__git_ps1)" ; done real 0m1.716s user 0m0.301s sys 0m0.772s After: real 0m0.687s user 0m0.075s sys 0m0.396s After, from $PROMPT_COMMAND: $ time for i in {0..9} ; do __git_ps1 '\h:\w' '$ ' ; done real 0m0.546s user 0m0.075s sys 0m0.181s At the top of the work tree, detached head, before: real 0m2.574s user 0m0.376s sys 0m1.207s After: real 0m1.139s user 0m0.151s sys 0m0.500s After, from $PROMPT_COMMAND: real 0m1.030s user 0m0.245s sys 0m0.336s In a subdirectory, during rebase, stash status indicator enabled, before: real 0m3.557s user 0m0.495s sys 0m1.767s After: real 0m0.717s user 0m0.120s sys 0m0.300s After, from $PROMPT_COMMAND: real 0m0.577s user 0m0.047s sys 0m0.258s On Linux the speedup ratio is comparable to Windows, but overall it was about an order of magnitude faster to begin with.

2013-06-24bash prompt: use bash builtins to check stash stateLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-2/+3
When the environment variable $GIT_PS1_SHOWSTASHSTATE is set __git_ps1() checks the presence of stashes by running 'git rev-parse --verify refs/stash'. This command not only checks that the 'refs/stash' ref exists but also, well, verifies that it's a valid ref. However, we don't need to be that thorough for the bash prompt. We can omit that verification and only check whether 'refs/stash' exists or not. Since 'git pack-refs' never packs 'refs/stash', it's a matter of checking the existence of a ref file. Perform this check using only bash builtins to spare the overhead of fork()+exec()ing a git process. Also run 'git pack-refs --all' in the corresponding test to document that the prompt script depends on 'git pack-refs' not packing 'refs/stash' and to catch possible breakages should this behavior ever change.

2013-06-24bash prompt: use bash builtins to check for unborn branch for dirty stateLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+1
When the dirty work tree and index status indicator is enabled, __git_ps1() checks for changes in the index by running 'git diff-index --cached --quiet HEAD --' and looking at its exit code. However, that makes sense only when HEAD points to a valid commit: on an unborn branch the failure of said command would be caused by the invalid HEAD, not by changes in the index. Therefore, __git_ps1() first checks for a valid HEAD by running 'git rev-parse --quiet --verify HEAD'. Since the previous patch we implicitly check HEAD's validity by running 'git rev-parse ... --short HEAD', making the dirty status indicator's 'git rev-parse' check redundant. It's sufficient to check for non-emptyness of the variable holding the abbreviated commit object name, thereby sparing the overhead of fork()+exec()ing a git process.

2013-06-24bash prompt: combine 'git rev-parse' for detached headLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-4/+12
When describing a detached HEAD according to the $GIT_PS1_DESCRIBE environment variable fails, __git_ps1() now runs the '$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)' command substitution to get the abbreviated detached HEAD commit object name. This imposes the overhead of fork()ing a subshell and fork()+exec()ing a git process. Avoid this overhead by combining this command substitution with the "main" 'git rev-parse' execution for getting the path to the .git directory & co. This means that we'll look for the abbreviated commit object name even when it's not necessary, because we're on a branch or the detached HEAD can be described. It doesn't matter, however, because once 'git rev-parse' is up and running to fulfill all those other queries, the additional overhead of looking for the abbreviated commit object name is not measurable because it's lost in the noise. There is a caveat, however, when we are on an unborn branch, because in that case HEAD doesn't point to a valid commit, hence the query for the abbreviated commit object name fails. Therefore, '--short HEAD' must be the last options to 'git rev-parse' in order to get all the other necessary information for the prompt even on an unborn branch. Furthermore, in that case, and in that case only, 'git rev-parse' doesn't output the last line containing the abbreviated commit object name, obviously, so we have to take care to only parse it if 'git rev-parse' exited without any error. Although there are tests already excercising __git_ps1() on unborn branches, they all do so implicitly. Add a test that checks this explicitly. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de>

There are a couple of '$(git rev-parse --<opt>)' command substitutions in __git_ps1() and three of them are executed in the main code path: - the first to get the path to the .git directory ('--git-dir'), - the second to check whether we're inside the .git directory ('--is-inside-git-dir'), - and the last, depending on the results of the second, either * to check whether it's a bare repo ('--is-bare-repository'), or * to check whether inside a work tree ('--is-inside-work-tree'). Naturally, this imposes the overhead of fork()ing three subshells and fork()+exec()ing three git commands. Combine these four 'git rev-parse' queries into a single one and use bash parameter expansions to parse the combined output, i.e. to separate the path to the .git directory from the true/false of '--is-inside-git-dir', etc. This way we can eliminate two of the three subshells and git commands.

__git_ps1() runs the '$(git symbolic-ref HEAD)' command substitution to find out whether we are on a branch and to find out the name of that branch. This imposes the overhead of fork()ing a subshell and fork()+exec()ing a git process. Since HEAD is in most cases a single-line file and the symbolic ref format is quite simple to recognize and parse, read and parse it using only bash builtins, thereby sparing all that fork()+exec() overhead. Don't display the git prompt if reading HEAD fails, because a readable HEAD is required for a git repository. HEAD can also be a symlink symbolic ref (due to 'core.preferSymlinkRefs'), so use bash builtins for reading HEAD only when HEAD is not a symlink. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de>
2013-06-24bash prompt: use bash builtins to find out rebase stateLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-6/+6
During an ongoing interactive rebase __git_ps1() finds out the name of the rebased branch, the total number of patches and the number of the current patch by executing a '$(cat .git/rebase-merge/<FILE>)' command substitution for each. That is not quite the most efficient way to read single line single word files, because it imposes the overhead of fork()ing a subshell and fork()+exec()ing 'cat' several times. Use the 'read' bash builtin instead to avoid those overheads. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de>
2013-06-24bash prompt: run 'git rev-parse --git-dir' directly instead of __gitdir()Libravatar SZEDER Gábor2-27/+1
__git_ps1() finds out the path to the repository by using the __gitdir() helper function. __gitdir() is basically just a wrapper around 'git rev-parse --git-dir', extended with support for recognizing a remote repository given as argument, to use the path given on the command line, and with a few shortcuts to recognize a git repository in cwd or at $GIT_DIR quickly without actually running 'git rev-parse'. However, the former two is only necessary for the completion script but makes no sense for the bash prompt, while the latter shortcuts are performance optimizations __git_ps1() can do without (they just avoid the overhead of fork()+exec()ing a git process). Run 'git rev-parse --git-dir' directly in __git_ps1(), because it will allow this patch series to combine several $(git rev-parse ...) command substitutions in the main code path, and the overall performance benefit will far outweigh the loss of those few shortcuts in __gitdir(). Furthermore, since __gitdir() is not needed anymore for the prompt, remove it from the prompt script finally eliminating its duplication between the prompt and completion scripts. Also remove the comment from the completion script warning about this code duplication. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de>
