Hotfix to breakage introduced in the topic in v2.29-rc0 * js/no-builtins-on-disk-option: help: do not expect built-in commands to be hardlinked
2020-10-07help: do not expect built-in commands to be hardlinkedLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+19
When building with SKIP_DASHED_BUILT_INS=YesPlease, the built-in commands are no longer present in the `PATH` as hardlinks to `git`. As a consequence, `load_command_list()` needs to be taught to find the names of the built-in commands from elsewhere. This only affected the output of `git --list-cmds=main`, but not the output of `git help -a` because the latter includes the built-in commands by virtue of them being listed in command-list.txt. The bug was detected via a patch series that turns the merge strategies included in Git into built-in commands: `git merge -s help` relies on `load_command_list()` to determine the list of available merge strategies.

2020-09-25for-each-repo: run subcommands on configured reposLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+1
It can be helpful to store a list of repositories in global or system config and then iterate Git commands on that list. Create a new builtin that makes this process simple for experts. We will use this builtin to run scheduled maintenance on all configured repositories in a future change. The test is very simple, but does highlight that the "--" argument is optional.

2020-09-17maintenance: create basic maintenance runnerLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+1
The 'gc' builtin is our current entrypoint for automatically maintaining a repository. This one tool does many operations, such as repacking the repository, packing refs, and rewriting the commit-graph file. The name implies it performs "garbage collection" which means several different things, and some users may not want to use this operation that rewrites the entire object database. Create a new 'maintenance' builtin that will become a more general- purpose command. To start, it will only support the 'run' subcommand, but will later expand to add subcommands for scheduling maintenance in the background. For now, the 'maintenance' builtin is a thin shim over the 'gc' builtin. In fact, the only option is the '--auto' toggle, which is handed directly to the 'gc' builtin. The current change is isolated to this simple operation to prevent more interesting logic from being lost in all of the boilerplate of adding a new builtin. Use existing builtin/gc.c file because we want to share code between the two builtins. It is possible that we will have 'maintenance' replace the 'gc' builtin entirely at some point, leaving 'git gc' as an alias for some specific arguments to 'git maintenance run'. Create a new test_subcommand helper that allows us to test if a certain subcommand was run. It requires storing the GIT_TRACE2_EVENT logs in a file. A negation mode is available that will be used in later tests.

There's no reason that git-fast-import benefits from being a separate binary. And as it links against libgit.a, it has a non-trivial disk footprint.

2020-08-13make credential helpers builtinsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+3
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).

2020-07-30strvec: rename struct fieldsLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+5
The "argc" and "argv" names made sense when the struct was argv_array, but now they're just confusing. Let's rename them to "nr" (which we use for counts elsewhere) and "v" (which is rather terse, but reads well when combined with typical variable names like "args.v"). Note that we have to update all of the callers immediately. Playing tricks with the preprocessor is hard here, because we wouldn't want to rewrite unrelated tokens.

2020-07-28strvec: convert more callers away from argv_array nameLibravatar Jeff King1-11/+11
We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec consistently. There's no particular reason we have to do it all at once, or care about interactions between converted and unconverted bits. Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different names is OK). This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet, to keep the diff to a manageable size. The conversion was done purely mechanically with: git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' | xargs perl -i -pe ' s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g; s/argv_array/strvec/g; ' and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'".

2020-07-15Merge branch 'ta/wait-on-aliased-commands-upon-signal' into masterLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
When an aliased command, whose output is piped to a pager by git, gets killed by a signal, the pager got into a funny state, which has been corrected (again). * ta/wait-on-aliased-commands-upon-signal: Wait for child on signal death for aliases to externals Wait for child on signal death for aliases to builtins
2020-07-07Wait for child on signal death for aliases to externalsLibravatar Trygve Aaberge1-0/+2
When we are running an alias to an external command, we want to wait for that process to exit even after receiving ^C which normally kills the git process. This is useful when the process is ignoring SIGINT (which e.g. pagers often do), and then we don't want it to be killed. Having an alias which invokes a pager is probably not common, but it can be useful e.g. if you have an alias to a git command which uses a subshell as one of the arguments (in which case you have to use an external command, not an alias to a builtin). This patch is similar to the previous commit, but the previous commit fixed this only for aliases to builtins, while this commit does the same for aliases to external commands. In addition to waiting after clean like the previous commit, this also enables cleaning the child (that was already enabled for aliases to builtins before the previous commit), because wait_after_clean relies on it. Lastly, while the previous commit fixed a regression, I don't think this has ever worked properly. Signed-off-by: Trygve Aaberge <trygveaa@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-07-07Wait for child on signal death for aliases to builtinsLibravatar Trygve Aaberge1-1/+1
When you hit ^C all the processes in the tree receives it. When a git command uses a pager, git ignores this and waits until the pager quits. However, when using an alias there is an additional process in the tree which didn't ignore the signal. That caused it to exit which in turn caused the pager to exit. This fixes that for aliases to builtins. This was originally fixed in 46df6906 (execv_dashed_external: wait for child on signal death, 2017-01-06), but was broken by ee4512ed (trace2: create new combined trace facility, 2019-02-22) and then b9140840 (git: avoid calling aliased builtins via their dashed form, 2019-07-29).

2020-05-27builtin/show-index: provide options to determine hash algoLibravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+1
show-index is capable of reading any possible index file whether or not the index is inside a repository. However, because our index files lack metadata about the hash algorithm in use, it's not possible to autodetect the algorithm that a particular index file is using. In order to allow us to read index files of any algorithm, let's set up the .git directory gently so that we default to the algorithm for the current repository, and add an --object-format option to allow users to override this setting and continue to run show-index outside of a repository altogether. Let's also document this new option so that people can find it and use it. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-04-30shallow: extract a header file for shallow-related functionsLibravatar Taylor Blau1-0/+1
There are many functions in commit.h that are more related to shallow repositories than they are to any sort of generic commit machinery. Likely this began when there were only a few shallow-related functions, and commit.h seemed a reasonable enough place to put them. But, now there are a good number of shallow-related functions, and placing them all in 'commit.h' doesn't make sense. This patch extracts a 'shallow.h', which takes all of the declarations from 'commit.h' for functions which already exist in 'shallow.c'. We will bring the remaining shallow-related functions defined in 'commit.c' in a subsequent patch. For now, move only the ones that already are implemented in 'shallow.c', and update the necessary includes.

2020-03-05stash: remove the stash.useBuiltin settingLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-6/+1
Remove the stash.useBuiltin setting which was added as an escape hatch to disable the builtin version of stash first released with Git 2.22. Carrying the legacy version is a maintenance burden, and has in fact become out of date failing a test since the 2.23 release, without anyone noticing until now. So users would be getting a hint to fall back to a potentially buggy version of the tool. We used to shell out to git config to get the useBuiltin configuration to avoid changing any global state before spawning legacy-stash. However that is no longer necessary, so just use the 'git_config' function to get the setting instead. Similar to what we've done in d03ebd411c ("rebase: remove the rebase.useBuiltin setting", 2019-03-18), where we remove the corresponding setting for rebase, we leave the documentation in place, so people can refer back to it when searching for it online, and so we can refer to it in the commit message.

2019-11-22sparse-checkout: create builtin with 'list' subcommandLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+1
The sparse-checkout feature is mostly hidden to users, as its only documentation is supplementary information in the docs for 'git read-tree'. In addition, users need to know how to edit the .git/info/sparse-checkout file with the right patterns, then run the appropriate 'git read-tree -mu HEAD' command. Keeping the working directory in sync with the sparse-checkout file requires care. Begin an effort to make the sparse-checkout feature a porcelain feature by creating a new 'git sparse-checkout' builtin. This builtin will be the preferred mechanism for manipulating the sparse-checkout file and syncing the working directory. The documentation provided is adapted from the "git read-tree" documentation with a few edits for clarity in the new context. Extra sections are added to hint toward a future change to a more restricted pattern set.

2019-09-20git: use COPY_ARRAY and MOVE_ARRAY in handle_alias()Libravatar René Scharfe1-3/+2
Use the macro COPY_ARRAY to copy array elements and MOVE_ARRAY to do the same for moving them backwards in an array with potential overlap. The result is shorter and safer, as it infers the element type automatically and does a (very) basic type compatibility check for its first two arguments. These cases were missed by Coccinelle and contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci because the type of the elements is "const char *", not "char *", and the rules in the semantic patch cautiously insist on the sizeof operator being used on exactly the same type to avoid generating transformations that introduce subtle bugs into tricky code.

As of 595d59e2b53 (git.c: ignore pager.* when launching builtin as dashed external, 2017-08-02), Git wants to ignore the pager.* config setting when expanding aliases.

2019-06-21env--helper: new undocumented builtin wrapping git_env_*()Libravatar Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason1-0/+1
We have many GIT_TEST_* variables that accept a <boolean> because they're implemented in C, and then some that take <non-empty?> because they're implemented at least partially in shellscript. Add a helper that wraps git_env_bool() and git_env_ulong() as the first step in fixing this. This isn't being added as a test-tool mode because some of these are used outside the test suite. Part of what this tool does can be done via a trick with "git config" added in 83d842dc8c ("tests: turn on network daemon tests by default", 2014-02-10) for test_tristate(), i.e.: git -c magic.variable="$1" config --bool magic.variable 2>/dev/null But as subsequent changes will show being able to pass along the default value makes all the difference, and we'll be able to replace test_tristate() itself with that. The --type=bool option will be used by subsequent patches, but not --type=ulong. I figured it was easy enough to add it & test for it so I left it in so we'd have wrappers for both git_env_*() functions, and to have a template to make it obvious how we'd add --type=int etc. if it's needed in the future.

2019-05-07checkout: split part of it to new command 'restore'Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+1
Previously the switching branch business of 'git checkout' becomes a new command 'switch'. This adds the restore command for the checking out paths path. Similar to git-switch, a new man page is added to describe what the command will become. The implementation will be updated shortly to match the man page. A couple main differences from 'git checkout <paths>': - 'restore' by default will only update worktree. This matters more when --source is specified ('checkout <tree> <paths>' updates both worktree and index). - 'restore --staged' can be used to restore the index. This command overlaps with 'git reset <paths>'. - both worktree and index could also be restored at the same time (from a tree) when both --staged and --worktree are specified. This overlaps with 'git checkout <tree> <paths>' - default source for restoring worktree and index is the index and HEAD respectively. A different (tree) source could be specified as with --source (*). - when both index and worktree are restored, --source must be specified since the default source for these two individual targets are different (**) - --no-overlay is enabled by default, if an entry is missing in the source, restoring means deleting the entry (*) I originally went with --from instead of --source. I still think --from is a better name. The short option -f however is already taken by force. And I do think short option is good to have, e.g. to write -s@ or -s@^ instead of --source=HEAD. (**) If you sit down and think about it, moving worktree's source from the index to HEAD makes sense, but nobody is really thinking it through when they type the commands.

2019-04-19Turn `git serve` into a test helperLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+0
The `git serve` built-in was introduced in ed10cb952d31 (serve: introduce git-serve, 2018-03-15) as a backend to serve Git protocol v2, probably originally intended to be spawned by `git upload-pack`. However, in the version that the protocol v2 patches made it into core Git, `git upload-pack` calls the `serve()` function directly instead of spawning `git serve`; The only reason in life for `git serve` to survive as a built-in command is to provide a way to test the protocol v2 functionality. Meaning that it does not even have to be a built-in that is installed with end-user facing Git installations, but it can be a test helper instead. Let's make it so.

The good old "git checkout" command is still here and will be until all (or most of users) are sick of it. See the new man page for the final design of switch. The actual implementation though is still pretty much the same as "git checkout" and not completely aligned with the man page. Following patches will adjust their behavior to match the man page.

2019-03-21git: read local config in --list-cmdsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+7
Normally code that is checking config before we've decided to do setup_git_directory() would use read_early_config(), which uses discover_git_directory() to tentatively see if we're in a repo, and if so to add it to the config sequence. But list_cmds() uses the caching configset mechanism which rightly does not use read_early_config(), because it has no idea if it's being called early. Call setup_git_directory_gently() so we can pick up repo-level config (like completion.commands). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-03-18difftool: allow running outside Git worktrees with --no-indexLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+1
As far as this developer can tell, the conversion from a Perl script to a built-in caused the regression in the difftool that it no longer runs outside of a Git worktree (with `--no-index`, of course). It is a bit embarrassing that it took over two years after retiring the Perl version to discover this regression, but at least we now know, and can do something, about it.

2019-03-07stash: optionally use the scripted version againLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+6
We recently converted the `git stash` command from Unix shell scripts to builtins. Let's end users a way out when they discover a bug in the builtin command: `stash.useBuiltin`. As the file name `git-stash` is already in use, let's rename the scripted backend to `git-legacy-stash`. To make the test suite pass with `stash.useBuiltin=false`, this commit also backports rudimentary support for `-q` (but only *just* enough to appease the test suite), and adds a super-ugly hack to force exit code 129 for `git stash -h`.

2019-03-07stash: convert `stash--helper.c` into `stash.c`Libravatar Paul-Sebastian Ungureanu1-1/+1
The old shell script `git-stash.sh` was removed and replaced entirely by `builtin/stash.c`. In order to do that, `create` and `push` were adapted to work without `stash.sh`. For example, before this commit, `git stash create` called `git stash--helper create --message "$*"`. If it called `git stash--helper create "$@"`, then some of these changes wouldn't have been necessary. This commit also removes the word `helper` since now stash is called directly and not by a shell script.

2019-03-07stash: convert apply to builtinLibravatar Joel Teichroeb1-0/+1
Add a builtin helper for performing stash commands. Converting all at once proved hard to review, so starting with just apply lets conversion get started without the other commands being finished. The helper is being implemented as a drop in replacement for stash so that when it is complete it can simply be renamed and the shell script deleted. Delete the contents of the apply_stash shell function and replace it with a call to stash--helper apply until pop is also converted.

2019-02-22trace2: create new combined trace facilityLibravatar Jeff Hostetler1-0/+65
Create a new unified tracing facility for git. The eventual intent is to replace the current trace_printf* and trace_performance* routines with a unified set of git_trace2* routines. In addition to the usual printf-style API, trace2 provides higer-level event verbs with fixed-fields allowing structured data to be written. This makes post-processing and analysis easier for external tools. Trace2 defines 3 output targets. These are set using the environment variables "GIT_TR2", "GIT_TR2_PERF", and "GIT_TR2_EVENT". These may be set to "1" or to an absolute pathname (just like the current GIT_TRACE). * GIT_TR2 is intended to be a replacement for GIT_TRACE and logs command summary data. * GIT_TR2_PERF is intended as a replacement for GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE. It extends the output with columns for the command process, thread, repo, absolute and relative elapsed times. It reports events for child process start/stop, thread start/stop, and per-thread function nesting. * GIT_TR2_EVENT is a new structured format. It writes event data as a series of JSON records. Calls to trace2 functions log to any of the 3 output targets enabled without the need to call different trace_printf* or trace_performance* routines.
