handle_change_delete() has a block of code displaying one of four nearly identical messages. Each contains about half a dozen variable interpolations, which use nearly identical variables as well. Someone trying to parse this may be slowed down trying to parse the differences and why they are here; help them out by adding a comment explaining the differences. Further, point out that this code structure isn't collapsed into something more concise and readable for the programmer, because we want to keep full messages intact in order to make translators' jobs much easier.

2018-06-12merge-recursive: rename conflict_rename_*() family of functionsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-43/+43
These functions were added because processing of these conflicts needed to be deferred until process_entry() in order to get D/F conflicts and such right. The number of these has grown over time, and now include some whose name is misleading: * conflict_rename_normal() is for handling normal file renames; a typical rename may need content merging, but we expect conflicts from that to be more the exception than the rule. * conflict_rename_via_dir() will not be a conflict; it was just an add that turned into a move due to directory rename detection. (If there was a file in the way of the move, that would have been detected and reported earlier.) * conflict_rename_rename_2to1 and conflict_rename_add (the latter of which doesn't exist yet but has been submitted before and I intend to resend) technically might not be conflicts if the colliding paths happen to match exactly. Rename this family of functions to handle_rename_*(). Also rename handle_renames() to detect_and_process_renames() both to make it clearer what it does, and to differentiate it as a pre-processing step from all the handle_rename_*() functions which are called from process_entry().

We had an enum of rename types which included RENAME_DIR; this name felt misleading since it was not about an entire directory but was a status for each individual file add that occurred within a renamed directory. Since this type is for signifying that the files in question were being renamed due to directory rename detection, rename this enum value to RENAME_VIA_DIR. Make a similar change to the conflict_rename_dir() function, and add a comment to the top of that function explaining its purpose (it may not be quite as obvious as for the other conflict_rename_*() functions).

2018-05-22unpack_trees_options: free messages when doneLibravatar Martin Ågren1-0/+1
The strings allocated in `setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()` are never freed. Provide a function `clear_unpack_trees_porcelain()` to do so and call it where we use `setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()`. The only non-trivial user is `unpack_trees_start()`, where we should place the new call in `unpack_trees_finish()`. We keep the string pointers in an array, mixing pointers to static memory and memory that we allocate on the heap. We also keep several copies of the individual pointers. So we need to make sure that we do not free what we must not free and that we do not double-free. Let a separate argv_array take ownership of all the strings we create so that we can easily free them. Zero the whole array of string pointers to make sure that we do not leave any dangling pointers. Note that we only take responsibility for the memory allocated in `setup_unpack_trees_porcelain()` and not any other members of the `struct unpack_trees_options`.

To do so we could either make the output() function globally available so we can use it in submodule.c#merge_submodule(), or we could integrate the submodule merging into the merging code. Choose the later as we generally want to move submodules closer into the core. Therefore we move any function related to merging submodules (merge_submodule(), find_first_merges() and print_commit) to merge-recursive.c. We'll keep add_submodule_odb() in submodule.c as it is used by other submodule functions. While at it, add a TODO note that we do not really like the function add_submodule_odb().

2018-05-08merge-recursive: fix check for skipability of working tree updatesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-16/+32
The can-working-tree-updates-be-skipped check has had a long and blemished history. The update can be skipped iff: a) The merge is clean b) The merge matches what was in HEAD (content, mode, pathname) c) The target path is usable (i.e. not involved in D/F conflict) Traditionally, we split b into parts: b1) The merged result matches the content and mode found in HEAD b2) The merged target path existed in HEAD Steps a & b1 are easy to check; we have always gotten those right. While it is easy to overlook step c, this was fixed seven years ago with commit 4ab9a157d069 ("merge_content(): Check whether D/F conflicts are still present", 2010-09-20). merge-recursive didn't have a readily available way to directly check step b2, so various approximations were used: * In commit b2c8c0a76274 ("merge-recursive: When we detect we can skip an update, actually skip it", 2011-02-28), it was noted that although the code claimed it was skipping the update, it did not actually skip the update. The code was made to skip it, but used lstat(path, ...) as an approximation to path-was-tracked-in-index-before-merge. * In commit 5b448b853030 ("merge-recursive: When we detect we can skip an update, actually skip it", 2011-08-11), the problem with using lstat was noted. It was changed to the approximation path2 && strcmp(path, path2) which is also wrong. !path2 || strcmp(path, path2) would have been better, but would have fallen short with directory renames. * In c5b761fb2711 ("merge-recursive: ensure we write updates for directory-renamed file", 2018-02-14), the problem with the previous approximation was noted and changed to was_tracked(path) That looks close to what we were trying to answer, but was_tracked() as implemented at the time should have been named is_tracked(); it returned something different than what we were looking for. * To make matters more complex, fixing was_tracked() isn't sufficient because the splitting of b into b1 and b2 is wrong. Consider the following merge with a rename/add conflict: side A: modify foo, add unrelated bar side B: rename foo->bar (but don't modify the mode or contents) In this case, the three-way merge of original foo, A's foo, and B's bar will result in a desired pathname of bar with the same mode/contents that A had for foo. Thus, A had the right mode and contents for the file, and it had the right pathname present (namely, bar), but the bar that was present was unrelated to the contents, so the working tree update was not skippable. Fix this by introducing a new function: was_tracked_and_matches(o, path, &mfi.oid, mfi.mode) and use it to directly check for condition b.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: make "Auto-merging" comment show for other mergesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-26/+39
Previously, merge_content() would print "Auto-merging" whenever the final content and mode aren't already available from HEAD. There are a few problems with this: 1) There are other code paths doing merges that should probably have the same message printed, in particular rename/rename(2to1) which cannot call into the normal rename logic. 2) If both sides of the merge have modifications, then a content merge is needed. It may turn out that the end result matches one of the sides (because the other only had a subset of the same changes), but the merge was still needed. Currently, the message will not print in that case, though it seems like it should. Move the printing of this message to merge_file_1() in order to address both issues.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: fix remainder of was_dirty() to use original indexLibravatar Elijah Newren1-3/+3
was_dirty() uses was_tracked(), which has been updated to use the original index rather than the current one. However, was_dirty() also had a separate call to cache_file_exists(), causing it to still implicitly use the current index. Update that to instead use index_file_exists(). Also, was_dirty() had a hack where it would mark any file as non-dirty if we simply didn't know its modification time. This was due to using the current index rather than the original index, because D/F conflicts and such would cause unpack_trees() to not copy the modification times from the original index to the current one. Now that we are using the original index, we can dispense with this hack. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2018-05-08merge-recursive: fix was_tracked() to quit lying with some renamed pathsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-24/+67
In commit aacb82de3ff8 ("merge-recursive: Split was_tracked() out of would_lose_untracked()", 2011-08-11), was_tracked() was split out of would_lose_untracked() with the intent to provide a function that could answer whether a path was tracked in the index before the merge. Sadly, it instead returned whether the path was in the working tree due to having been tracked in the index before the merge OR having been written there by unpack_trees(). The distinction is important when renames are involved, e.g. for a merge where: HEAD: modifies path b other: renames b->c In this case, c was not tracked in the index before the merge, but would have been added to the index at stage 0 and written to the working tree by unpack_trees(). would_lose_untracked() is more interested in the in-working-copy-for-either-reason behavior, while all other uses of was_tracked() want just was-it-tracked-in-index-before-merge behavior. Unsplit would_lose_untracked() and write a new was_tracked() function which answers whether a path was tracked in the index before the merge started. This will also affect was_dirty(), helping it to return better results since it can base answers off the original index rather than an index that possibly only copied over some of the stat information. However, was_dirty() will need an additional change that will be made in a subsequent patch. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2018-05-08merge-recursive: improve add_cacheinfo error handlingLibravatar Elijah Newren1-5/+8
Four closely related changes all with the purpose of fixing error handling in this function: - fix reported function name in add_cacheinfo error messages - differentiate between the two error messages - abort early when we hit the error (stop ignoring return code) - mark a test which was hitting this error as failing until we get the right fix In more detail... In commit 0424138d5715 ("Fix bogus error message from merge-recursive error path", 2007-04-01), it was noted that the name of the function which the error message claimed it was reported from did not match the actual function name. This was changed to something closer to the real function name, but it still didn't match the actual function name. Fix the reported name to match. Second, the two errors in this function had identical messages, preventing us from knowing which error had been triggered. Add a couple words to the second error message to differentiate the two. Next, make sure callers do not ignore the return code so that it will stop processing further entries (processing further entries could result in more output which could cause the error to scroll off the screen, or at least be missed by the user) and make it clear the error is the cause of the early abort. These errors should never be triggered in production; if either one is, it represents a bug in the calling path somewhere and is likely to have resulted in mis-merged content. The combination of ignoring of the return code and continuing to print other standard messages after hitting the error resulted in the following bug report from Junio: "...the command pretends that everything went well and merged cleanly in that path...[Behaving] in a buggy and unexplainable way is bad enough, doing so silently is unexcusable." Fix this. Finally, there was one test in the testsuite that did hit this error path, but was passing anyway. This would have been easy to miss since it had a test_must_fail and thus could have failed for the wrong reason, but in a separate testing step I added an intentional NULL-dereference to the codepath where these error messages are printed in order to flush out such cases. I could modify that test to explicitly check for this error and fail the test if it is hit, but since this test operates in a bit of a gray area and needed other changes, I went for a different fix. The gray area this test operates in is the following: If the merge of a certain file results in the same version of the file that existed in HEAD, but there are dirty modifications to the file, is that an error with a "Refusing to overwrite existing file" expected, or a case where the merge should succeed since we shouldn't have to touch the dirty file anyway? Recent discussion on the list leaned towards saying it should be a success. Therefore, change the expected behavior of this test to match. As a side effect, this makes the failed-due-to-hitting-add_cacheinfo-error very clear, and we can mark the test as test_expect_failure.

If a file on one side of history was renamed, and merely modified on the other side, then applying a directory rename to the modified side gives us a rename/rename(1to2) conflict. We should only apply directory renames to pairs representing either adds or renames. Making this change means that a directory rename testcase that was previously reported as a rename/delete conflict will now be reported as a modify/delete conflict.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: fix overwriting dirty files involved in renamesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-19/+66
This fixes an issue that existed before my directory rename detection patches that affects both normal renames and renames implied by directory rename detection. Additional codepaths that only affect overwriting of dirty files that are involved in directory rename detection will be added in a subsequent commit.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: when comparing files, don't include treesLibravatar Elijah Newren1-6/+21
get_renames() would look up stage data that already existed (populated in get_unmerged(), taken from whatever unpack_trees() created), and if it didn't exist, would call insert_stage_data() to create the necessary entry for the given file. The insert_stage_data() fallback becomes much more important for directory rename detection, because that creates a mechanism to have a file in the resulting merge that didn't exist on either side of history. However, insert_stage_data(), due to calling get_tree_entry() loaded up trees as readily as files. We aren't interested in comparing trees to files; the D/F conflict handling is done elsewhere. This code is just concerned with what entries existed for a given path on the different sides of the merge, so create a get_tree_entry_if_blob() helper function and use it.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: add computation of collisions due to dir rename & mergingLibravatar Elijah Newren1-3/+143
directory renaming and merging can cause one or more files to be moved to where an existing file is, or to cause several files to all be moved to the same (otherwise vacant) location. Add checking and reporting for such cases, falling back to no-directory-rename handling for such paths.

2018-05-08merge-recursive: add get_directory_renames()Libravatar Elijah Newren1-3/+221
This populates a set of directory renames for us. The set of directory renames is not yet used, but will be in subsequent commits. Note that the use of a string_list for possible_new_dirs in the new dir_rename_entry struct implies an O(n^2) algorithm; however, in practice I expect the number of distinct directories that files were renamed into from a single original directory to be O(1). My guess is that n has a mode of 1 and a mean of less than 2, so, for now, string_list seems good enough for possible_new_dirs.

2018-05-06Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() onesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-6/+6
In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55 (setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12). The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch (cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs. Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop. This trick was performed by this invocation: sed -i 's/die("BUG: /BUG("/g' $(git grep -l 'die("BUG' \*.c) Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
