2011-12-17git-p4: fix skipSubmitEdit regressionLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-7/+11
Commit 7c766e5 (git-p4: introduce skipSubmitEdit, 2011-12-04) made it easier to automate submission to p4, but broke the most common case. Add a test for when the user really does edit and save the change template, and fix the bug that causes the test to fail. Also add a confirmation message when submission is cancelled.

2011-12-12contrib: add credential helper for OS X KeychainLibravatar Jeff King3-0/+188
With this installed in your $PATH, you can store git-over-http passwords in your keychain by doing: git config credential.helper osxkeychain The code is based in large part on the work of Jay Soffian, who wrote the helper originally for the initial, unpublished version of the credential helper protocol. This version will pass t0303 if you do: GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=osxkeychain \ GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_SETUP="export HOME=$HOME" \ ./t0303-credential-external.sh The "HOME" setup is unfortunately necessary. The test scripts set HOME to the trash directory, but this causes the keychain API to complain. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-12-11git-p4: use absolute directory for PWD env varLibravatar Gary Gibbons1-2/+3
P4 only looks at the environment variable $PWD to figure out where it is, so chdir() has code to set that every time. But when the clone --destination is not an absolute path, PWD will not be absolute and P4 won't be able to find any files expected to be in the current directory. Fix this by expanding PWD to an absolute path. One place this crops up is when using a P4CONFIG environment variable to specify P4 parameters, such as P4USER or P4PORT. Setting P4CONFIG=.p4config works for p4 invocations from the current directory. But if the value of PWD is not absolute, it fails.

2011-10-21completion: remove broken dead code from __git_heads() and __git_tags()Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-20/+2
__git_heads() was introduced in 5de40f5 (Teach bash about git-repo-config., 2006-11-27), and __git_tags() in 88e21dc (Teach bash about completing arguments for git-tag, 2007-08-31). As their name suggests, __git_heads() is supposed to list only branches, and __git_tags() only tags. Since their introduction both of these functions consist of two distinct parts. The first part gets branches or tags, respectively, from a local repositoty using 'git for-each-ref'. The second part queries a remote repository given as argument using 'git ls-remote'. These remote-querying parts are broken in both functions since their introduction, because they list both branches and tags from the remote repository. (The 'git ls-remote' query is not limited to list only heads or tags, respectively, and the for loop filtering the query results prints everything except dereferenced tags.) This breakage could be easily fixed by passing the '--heads' or '--tags' options or appropriate refs patterns to the 'git ls-remote' invocations. However, that no one noticed this breakage yet is probably not a coincidence: neither of these two functions were used to query a remote repository, the remote-querying parts were dead code already upon thier introduction and remained dead ever since. Since those parts of code are broken, are and were never used, stop the bit-rotting and remove them. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-10-21completion: fast initial completion for config 'remote.*.fetch' valueLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-0/+4
Refspecs for branches in a remote repository start with 'refs/heads/', so completing those refspecs with 'git config remote.origin.fetch <TAB>' always offers 'refs/heads/' first, because that's the unique part of the possible refspecs. But it does so only after querying the remote with 'git ls-remote', which can take a while when the request goes through some slower network to a remote server. Don't waste the user's time and offer 'refs/heads/' right away for 'git config remote.origin.fetch <TAB>'. The reason for putting 'refs/heads/' directly into COMPREPLY instead of using __gitcomp() is to avoid __gitcomp() adding a trailing space.

__git_refs_remotes() is used to provide completion for refspecs to set 'remote.*.fetch' config variables for branches on the given remote. So it's really only interested in refs under 'refs/heads/', but it queries the remote for all its refs and then filters out all refs outside of 'refs/heads/'. Let 'git ls-remote' do the filtering. Also remove the unused $cmd variable from __git_refs_remotes(). Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-10-21completion: support full refs from remote repositoriesLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-8/+21
When the __git_refs() completion helper function lists refs from a local repository, it usually lists the refs' short name, except when it needs to provide completion for words starting with refs, because in that case it lists full ref names, see 608efb87 (bash: complete full refs, 2008-11-28).

2011-10-21completion: improve ls-remote output filtering in __git_refs()Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-7/+7
The remote-handling part of __git_refs() has a nice for loop and state machine case statement to iterate over all words from the output of 'git ls-remote' to identify object names and ref names. Since each line in the output of 'git ls-remote' consists of an object name and a ref name, we can do more effective filtering by using a while-read loop and letting bash's word splitting take care of object names. This way the code is easier to understand and the loop will need only half the number of iterations than before.

2011-10-21completion: make refs completion consistent for local and remote reposLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-4/+2
For a local repository the __git_refs() completion helper function lists refs under 'refs/(tags|heads|remotes)/', plus some special refs like HEAD and ORIG_HEAD. For a remote repository, however, it lists all refs. Fix this inconsistency by specifying refs filter patterns for 'git ls-remote' to only list refs under 'refs/(tags|heads|remotes)/'. For now this makes it impossible to complete refs outside of 'refs/(tags|heads|remotes)/' in a remote repository, but a followup patch will resurrect that.

2011-10-21completion: optimize refs completionLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-45/+70
After a unique command or option is completed, in most cases it is a good thing to add a trailing a space, but sometimes it doesn't make sense, e.g. when the completed word is an option taking an argument ('--option=') or a configuration section ('core.'). Therefore the completion script uses the '-o nospace' option to prevent bash from automatically appending a space to unique completions, and it has the __gitcomp() function to add that trailing space only when necessary. See 72e5e989 (bash: Add space after unique command name is completed., 2007-02-04), 78d4d6a2 (bash: Support unique completion on git-config., 2007-02-04), and b3391775 (bash: Support unique completion when possible., 2007-02-04). __gitcomp() therefore iterates over all possible completion words it got as argument, and checks each word whether a trailing space is necessary or not. This is ok for commands, options, etc., i.e. when the number of words is relatively small, but can be noticeably slow for large number of refs. However, while options might or might not need that trailing space, refs are always handled uniformly and always get that trailing space (or a trailing '.' for 'git config branch.<head>.'). Since refs listed by __git_refs() & co. are separated by newline, this allows us some optimizations with 'compgen'. So, add a specialized variant of __gitcomp() that only deals with possible completion words separated by a newline and uniformly appends the trailing space to all words using 'compgen -S " "' (or any other suffix, if specified), so no iteration over all words is needed. But we need to fiddle with IFS, because the default IFS containing a space would cause the added space suffix to be stripped off when compgen's output is stored in the COMPREPLY array. Therefore we use only newline as IFS, hence the requirement for the newline-separated possible completion words. Convert all callsites of __gitcomp() where it's called with refs, i.e. when it gets the output of either __git_refs(), __git_heads(), __git_tags(), __git_refs2(), __git_refs_remotes(), or the odd 'git for-each-ref' somewhere in _git_config(). Also convert callsites where it gets other uniformly handled newline separated word lists, i.e. either remotes from __git_remotes(), names of set configuration variables from __git_config_get_set_variables(), stashes, or commands. Here are some timing results for dealing with 10000 refs. Before: $ refs="$(__git_refs ~/tmp/git/repo-with-10k-refs/)" $ time __gitcomp "$refs" real 0m1.134s user 0m1.060s sys 0m0.130s After: $ time __gitcomp_nl "$refs" real 0m0.373s user 0m0.360s sys 0m0.020s Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@ira.uka.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-10-17git-p4: handle utf16 filetype properlyLibravatar Pete Wyckoff1-0/+11
One of the filetypes that p4 supports is utf16. Its behavior is odd in this case. The data delivered through "p4 -G print" is not encoded in utf16, although "p4 print -o" will produce the proper utf16-encoded file. When dealing with this filetype, discard the data from -G, and instead read the contents directly. An alternate approach would be to try to encode the data in python. That worked for true utf16 files, but for other files marked as utf16, p4 delivers mangled text in no recognizable encoding. Add a test case to check utf16 handling, and +k and +ko handling.

2011-09-01Add a remote helper to interact with mediawiki (fetch & push)Libravatar Jeremie Nikaes2-0/+763
Implement a gate between git and mediawiki, allowing git users to push and pull objects from mediawiki just as one would do with a classic git repository thanks to remote-helpers. The following packages need to be installed (available on common repositories): libmediawiki-api-perl libdatetime-format-iso8601-perl Use remote helpers in order to be as transparent as possible to the git user. Download Mediawiki revisions through the Mediawiki API and then fast-import into git. Mediawiki revision number and git commits are linked thanks to notes bound to commits. The import part is done on a refs/mediawiki/<remote> branch before coming to refs/remote/origin/master (Huge thanks to Jonathan Nieder for his help) We use UTF-8 everywhere: use encoding 'utf8'; does most of the job, but we also read the output of Git commands in UTF-8 with the small helper run_git, and write to the console (STDERR) in UTF-8. This allows a seamless use of non-ascii characters in page titles, but hasn't been tested on non-UTF-8 systems. In particular, UTF-8 encoding for filenames could raise problems if different file systems handle UTF-8 filenames differently. A uri_escape of mediawiki filenames could be imaginable, and is still to be discussed further. Partial cloning is supported using one of: git clone -c remote.origin.pages='A_Page Another_Page' mediawiki::http://wikiurl git clone -c remote.origin.categories='Some_Category' mediawiki::http://wikiurl git clone -c remote.origin.shallow='True' mediawiki::http://wikiurl Thanks to notes metadata, it is possible to compare remote and local last mediawiki revision to warn non-fast forward pushes and "everything up-to-date" case. When allowed, push looks for each commit between remotes/origin/master and HEAD, catches every blob related to these commit and push them in chronological order. To do so, it uses git rev-list --children HEAD and travels the tree from remotes/origin/master to HEAD through children.
