2013-02-25fix clang -Wtautological-compare with unsigned enumLibravatar Antoine Pelisse1-1/+2
Create a GREP_HEADER_FIELD_MIN so we can check that the field value is sane and silence the clang warning. Clang warning happens because the enum is unsigned (this is implementation-defined, and there is no negative fields) and the check is then tautological.

"git grep -e pattern <tree>" asked the attribute system to read "<tree>:.gitattributes" file in the working tree, which was nonsense. * nd/grep-true-path: grep: stop looking at random places for .gitattributes
2012-10-12grep: stop looking at random places for .gitattributesLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-3/+8
grep searches for .gitattributes using "name" field in struct grep_source but that field is not real on-disk path name. For example, "grep pattern rev" fills the field with "rev:path", and Git looks for .gitattributes in the (non-existent but exploitable) path "rev:path" instead of "path". This patch passes real paths down to grep_source_load_driver() when: - grep on work tree - grep on the index - grep a commit (or a tag if it points to a commit) so that these cases look up .gitattributes at proper paths. .gitattributes lookup is disabled in all other cases.

2012-09-14log --grep/--author: honor --all-match honored for multiple --grep patternsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+19
When we have both header expression (which has to be an OR node by construction) and a pattern expression (which could be anything), we create a new top-level OR node to bind them together, and the resulting expression structure looks like this: OR / \ / \ pattern OR / \ / \ ..... committer OR / \ author TRUE The three elements on the top-level backbone that are inspected by the "all-match" logic are "pattern", "committer" and "author". When there are more than one elements in the "pattern", the top-level node of the "pattern" part of the subtree is an OR, and that node is inspected by "all-match". The result ends up ignoring the "--all-match" given from the command line. A match on either side of the pattern is considered a match, hence: git log --grep=A --grep=B --author=C --all-match shows the same "authored by C and has either A or B" that is correct only when run without "--all-match". Fix this by turning the resulting expression around when "--all-match" is in effect, like this: OR / \ / \ / OR committer / \ author \ pattern The set of nodes on the top-level backbone in the resulting expression becomes "committer", "author", and the nodes that are on the top-level backbone of the "pattern" subexpression. This makes the "all-match" logic inspect the same nodes in "pattern" as the case without the author and/or the committer restriction, and makes the earlier "log" example to show "authored by C and has A and has B", which is what the command line expects.

2012-09-14grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse treeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+90
Our "grep" allows complex boolean expressions to be formed to match each individual line with operators like --and, '(', ')' and --not. Introduce the "--debug" option to show the parse tree to help people who want to debug and enhance it. Also "log" learns "--grep-debug" option to do the same. The command line parser to the log family is a lot more limited than the general "git grep" parser, but it has special handling for header matching (e.g. "--author"), and a parse tree is valuable when working on it. Note that "--all-match" is *not* any individual node in the parse tree. It is an instruction to the evaluator to check all the nodes in the top-level backbone have matched and reject a document as non-matching otherwise. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Currently, patterns that contain newline characters don't match anything when given to git grep. Regular grep(1) interprets patterns as lists of newline separated search strings instead. Implement this functionality by creating and inserting extra grep_pat structures for patterns consisting of multiple lines when appending to the pattern lists. For simplicity, all pattern strings are duplicated. The original pattern is truncated in place to make it contain only the first line.

When "git grep" is run with -P/--perl-regexp, it doesn't match ^ and $ at the beginning/end of the line. This is because PCRE normally matches ^ and $ at the beginning/end of the whole text, not for each line, and "git grep" passes a large chunk of text (possibly containing many lines) to pcre_exec() and then splits the text into lines. This makes "git grep -P" behave differently from "git grep -E" and also from "grep -P" and "pcregrep": $ cat file a b $ git grep --no-index -P '^ ' file $ git grep --no-index -E '^ ' file file: b $ grep -c -P '^ ' file b $ pcregrep -c '^ ' file b Reported-by: Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek <zbyszek@in.waw.pl> Signed-off-by: Michał Kiedrowicz <michal.kiedrowicz@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-02-02grep: load file data after checking binary-nessLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+3
Usually we load each file to grep into memory, check whether it's binary, and then either grep it (the default) or not (if "-I" was given). In the "-I" case, we can skip loading the file entirely if it is marked as binary via gitattributes. On my giant 3-gigabyte media repository, doing "git grep -I foo" went from: real 0m0.712s user 0m0.044s sys 0m4.780s to: real 0m0.026s user 0m0.016s sys 0m0.020s Obviously this is an extreme example. The repo is almost entirely binary files, and you can see that we spent all of our time asking the kernel to read() the data. However, with a cold disk cache, even avoiding a few binary files can have an impact. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-02-02grep: respect diff attributes for binary-nessLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+14
There is currently no way for users to tell git-grep that a particular path is or is not a binary file; instead, grep always relies on its auto-detection (or the user specifying "-a" to treat all binary-looking files like text). This patch teaches git-grep to use the same attribute lookup that is used by git-diff. We could add a new "grep" flag, but that is unnecessarily complex and unlikely to be useful. Despite the name, the "-diff" attribute (or "diff=foo" and the associated diff.foo.binary config option) are really about describing the contents of the path. It's simply historical that diff was the only thing that cared about these attributes in the past. And if this simple approach turns out to be insufficient, we still have a backwards-compatible path forward: we can add a separate "grep" attribute, and fall back to respecting "diff" if it is unset.

2012-02-02grep: cache userdiff_driver in grep_sourceLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+16
Right now, grep only uses the userdiff_driver for one thing: looking up funcname patterns for "-p" and "-W". As new uses for userdiff drivers are added to the grep code, we want to minimize attribute lookups, which can be expensive. It might seem at first that this would also optimize multiple lookups when the funcname pattern for a file is needed multiple times. However, the compiled funcname pattern is already cached in struct grep_opt's "priv" member, so multiple lookups are already suppressed.

2012-02-02grep: drop grep_buffer's "name" parameterLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
Before the grep_source interface existed, grep_buffer was used by two types of callers: 1. Ones which pulled a file into a buffer, and then wanted to supply the file's name for the output (i.e., git grep). 2. Ones which really just wanted to grep a buffer (i.e., git log --grep). Callers in set (1) should now be using grep_source. Callers in set (2) always pass NULL for the "name" parameter of grep_buffer. We can therefore get rid of this now-useless parameter.

2012-02-02grep: refactor the concept of "grep source" into an objectLibravatar Jeff King1-34/+164
The main interface to the low-level grep code is grep_buffer, which takes a pointer to a buffer and a size. This is convenient and flexible (we use it to grep commit bodies, files on disk, and blobs by sha1), but it makes it hard to pass extra information about what we are grepping (either for correctness, like overriding binary auto-detection, or for optimizations, like lazily loading blob contents). Instead, let's encapsulate the idea of a "grep source", including the buffer, its size, and where the data is coming from. This is similar to the diff_filespec structure used by the diff code (unsurprising, since future patches will implement some of the same optimizations found there). The diffstat is slightly scarier than the actual patch content. Most of the modified lines are simply replacing access to raw variables with their counterparts that are now in a "struct grep_source". Most of the added lines were taken from builtin/grep.c, which partially abstracted the idea of grep sources (for file vs sha1 sources). Instead of dropping the now-redundant code, this patch leaves builtin/grep.c using the traditional grep_buffer interface (which now wraps the grep_source interface). That makes it easy to test that there is no change of behavior (yet). Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-02-02grep: make locking flag globalLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+10
The low-level grep code traditionally didn't care about threading, as it doesn't do any threading itself and didn't call out to other non-thread-safe code. That changed with 0579f91 (grep: enable threading with -p and -W using lazy attribute lookup, 2011-12-12), which pushed the lookup of funcname attributes (which is not thread-safe) into the low-level grep code. As a result, the low-level code learned about a new global "grep_attr_mutex" to serialize access to the attribute code. A multi-threaded caller (e.g., builtin/grep.c) is expected to initialize the mutex and set "use_threads" in the grep_opt structure. The low-level code only uses the lock if use_threads is set. However, putting the use_threads flag into the grep_opt struct is not the most logical place. Whether threading is in use is not something that matters for each call to grep_buffer, but is instead global to the whole program (i.e., if any thread is doing multi-threaded grep, every other thread, even if it thinks it is doing its own single-threaded grep, would need to use the locking). In practice, this distinction isn't a problem for us, because the only user of multi-threaded grep is "git-grep", which does nothing except call grep. This patch turns the opt->use_threads flag into a global flag. More important than the nit-picking semantic argument above is that this means that the locking functions don't need to actually have access to a grep_opt to know whether to lock. Which in turn can make adding new locks simpler, as we don't need to pass around a grep_opt. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-08-19color: delay auto-color decision until point of useLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When we read a color value either from a config file or from the command line, we use git_config_colorbool to convert it from the tristate always/never/auto into a single yes/no boolean value. This has some timing implications with respect to starting a pager. If we start (or decide not to start) the pager before checking the colorbool, everything is fine. Either isatty(1) will give us the right information, or we will properly check for pager_in_use(). However, if we decide to start a pager after we have checked the colorbool, things are not so simple. If stdout is a tty, then we will have already decided to use color. However, the user may also have configured color.pager not to use color with the pager. In this case, we need to actually turn off color. Unfortunately, the pager code has no idea which color variables were turned on (and there are many of them throughout the code, and they may even have been manipulated after the colorbool selection by something like "--color" on the command line). This bug can be seen any time a pager is started after config and command line options are checked. This has affected "git diff" since 89d07f7 (diff: don't run pager if user asked for a diff style exit code, 2007-08-12). It has also affect the log family since 1fda91b (Fix 'git log' early pager startup error case, 2010-08-24). This patch splits the notion of parsing a colorbool and actually checking the configuration. The "use_color" variables now have an additional possible value, GIT_COLOR_AUTO. Users of the variable should use the new "want_color()" wrapper, which will lazily determine and cache the auto-color decision.

Commit 431d6e7b (grep: enable threading for context line printing) split the printing of the "--\n" mark between results from different files out into two places: show_line() in grep.c for the non-threaded case and work_done() in builtin/grep.c for the threaded case. Commit 55f638bd (grep: Colorize filename, line number, and separator) updated the former, but not the latter, so the separators between files are not colored if threads are used. This patch merges the two. In the threaded case, hunk marks are now printed by show_line() for every file, including the first one, and the very first mark is simply skipped in work_done().

2011-05-05grep: Put calls to fixmatch() and regmatch() into patmatch()Libravatar Michał Kiedrowicz1-8/+15
Both match_one_pattern() and look_ahead() use fixmatch() and regmatch() in the same way. They really want to match a pattern againt a string, but now they need to know if the pattern is fixed or regexp. This change cleans this up by introducing patmatch() (from "pattern match") and also simplifies inserting other ways of matching a string.

2010-09-13log --author: take union of multiple "author" requestsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-12/+53
In the olden days, log --author=me --committer=him --grep=this --grep=that used to be turned into: (OR (HEADER-AUTHOR me) (HEADER-COMMITTER him) (PATTERN this) (PATTERN that)) showing my patches that do not have any "this" nor "that", which was totally useless. 80235ba ("log --author=me --grep=it" should find intersection, not union, 2010-01-17) improved it greatly to turn the same into: (ALL-MATCH (HEADER-AUTHOR me) (HEADER-COMMITTER him) (OR (PATTERN this) (PATTERN that))) That is, "show only patches by me and committed by him, that have either this or that", which is a lot more natural thing to ask. We however need to be a bit more clever when the user asks more than one "author" (or "committer"); because a commit has only one author (and one committer), they ought to be interpreted as asking for union to be useful. The current implementation simply added another author/committer pattern at the same top-level for ALL-MATCH to insist on matching all, finding nothing. Turn log --author=me --author=her \ --committer=him --committer=you \ --grep=this --grep=that into (ALL-MATCH (OR (HEADER-AUTHOR me) (HEADER-AUTHOR her)) (OR (HEADER-COMMITTER him) (HEADER-COMMITTER you)) (OR (PATTERN this) (PATTERN that))) instead.

2010-05-24grep: support NUL chars in search strings for -FLibravatar René Scharfe1-13/+20
Search patterns in a file specified with -f can contain NUL characters. The current code ignores all characters on a line after a NUL. Pass the actual length of the line all the way from the pattern file to fixmatch() and use it for case-sensitive fixed string matching.

2010-05-24grep: use REG_STARTEND for all matching if availableLibravatar René Scharfe1-10/+14
Refactor REG_STARTEND handling inlook_ahead() into a new helper, regmatch(), and use it for line matching, too. This allows regex matching beyond NUL characters if regexec() supports the flag. NUL characters themselves are not matched in any way, though. Signed-off-by: Rene Scharfe <rene.scharfe@lsrfire.ath.cx> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
