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 Carrying the legacy version is a maintenance burden, and has in fact become out of date failing a test since the 2.23 release, without anyone noticing until now.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.

2019-07-29git: avoid calling aliased builtins via their dashed formLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-3/+0
This is one of the few places where Git violates its own deprecation of the dashed form. It is not necessary, either. 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. So let's strip out the check_pager_config(<command-name>) call from the copy-edited code. This code actually made it into upstream git.git already, but it was disabled in `#if 0 ... #endif` guards so far.

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.

2019-04-02checkout: split part of it to new command 'switch'Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+1
"git checkout" doing too many things is a source of confusion for many users (and it even bites old timers sometimes). To remedy that, the command will be split into two new ones: switch and restore. 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.

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.

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).

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`.

2019-02-22trace2: 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.

Most git commands respond to -h anywhere in the command line, or at least as a first and lone argument, by printing the usage information. For aliases, we can provide a little more information that might be useful in interpreting/understanding the following output by prepending a line telling that the command is an alias, and for what. When one invokes a simple alias, such as "cp = cherry-pick" with -h, this results in $ git cp -h 'cp' is aliased to 'cherry-pick' usage: git cherry-pick [<options>] <commit-ish>... ... When the alias consists of more than one word, this provides the additional benefit of informing the user which options are implicit in using the alias, e.g. with "cp = cherry-pick -n": $ git cp -h 'cp' is aliased to 'cherry-pick -n' usage: git cherry-pick [<options>] <commit-ish>... ... For shell commands, we cannot know how it responds to -h, but printing this line to stderr should not hurt, and can help in figuring out what is happening in a case like $ git sc -h 'sc' is aliased to '!somecommand' somecommand: invalid option '-h' Suggested-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <rv@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2018-09-17alias: show the call history when an alias is loopingLibravatar Tim Schumacher1-2/+15
Just printing the command that the user entered is not particularly helpful when trying to find the alias that causes the loop. Print the history of substituted commands to help the user find the offending alias. Mark the entrypoint of the loop with "<==" and the last command (which looped back to the entrypoint) with "==>".

2018-09-17alias: add support for aliases of an aliasLibravatar Tim Schumacher1-3/+12
Aliases can only contain non-alias git commands and their arguments, not other user-defined aliases. Resolving further (nested) aliases is prevented by breaking the loop after the first alias was processed. Git then fails with a command-not-found error. Allow resolving nested aliases by not breaking the loop in run_argv() after the first alias was processed. Instead, continue the loop until `handle_alias()` fails, which means that there are no further aliases that can be processed. Prevent looping aliases by storing substituted commands in `cmd_list` and checking if a command has been substituted previously. While we're at it, fix a styling issue just below the added code.

2018-08-13Introduce `range-diff` to compare iterations of a topic branchLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+1
This command does not do a whole lot so far, apart from showing a usage that is oddly similar to that of `git tbdiff`. And for a good reason: the next commits will turn `range-branch` into a full-blown replacement for `tbdiff`. At this point, we ignore tbdiff's color options, as they will all be implemented later using diff_options. Since f318d739159 (generate-cmds.sh: export all commands to command-list.h, 2018-05-10), every new command *requires* a man page to build right away, so let's also add a blank man page, too.

2018-08-06rebase: start implementing it as a builtinLibravatar Pratik Karki1-0/+6
This commit imitates the strategy that was used to convert the difftool to a builtin. We start by renaming the shell script `git-rebase.sh` to `git-legacy-rebase.sh` and introduce a `builtin/rebase.c` that simply executes the shell script version, unless the config setting `rebase.useBuiltin` is set to `true`. The motivation behind this is to rewrite all the functionality of the shell script version in the aforementioned `rebase.c`, one by one and be able to conveniently test new features by configuring `rebase.useBuiltin`. In the original difftool conversion, if sane_execvp() that attempts to run the legacy scripted version returned with non-negative status, the command silently exited without doing anything with success, but sane_execvp() should not return with non-negative status in the first place, so we use die() to notice such an abnormal case. We intentionally avoid reading the config directly to avoid messing up the GIT_* environment variables when we need to fall back to exec()ing the shell script. The test of builtin rebase can be done by `git -c rebase.useBuiltin=true rebase ...` Signed-off-by: Pratik Karki <predatoramigo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
