2022-02-02merge-ort: format messages slightly different for use in headersLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+4
When users run git show --remerge-diff $MERGE_COMMIT or git log -p --remerge-diff ... stdout is not an appropriate location to dump conflict messages, but we do want to provide them to users. We will include them in the diff headers instead...but for that to work, we need for any multiline messages to replace newlines with both a newline and a space. Add a new flag to signal when we want these messages modified in such a fashion, and use it in path_msg() to modify these messages this way. Also, allow a special prefix to be specified for these headers. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2022-02-02ll-merge: make callers responsible for showing warningsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+4
Since some callers may want to send warning messages to somewhere other than stdout/stderr, stop printing "warning: Cannot merge binary files" from ll-merge and instead modify the return status of ll_merge() to indicate when a merge of binary files has occurred. Message printing probably does not belong in a "low-level merge" anyway. This commit continues printing the message as-is, just from the callers instead of within ll_merge(). Future changes will start handling the message differently in the merge-ort codepath. There was one special case here: the callers in rerere.c do NOT check for and print such a message; since those code paths explicitly skip over binary files, there is no reason to check for a return status of LL_MERGE_BINARY_CONFLICT or print the related message. Note that my methodology included first modifying ll_merge() to return a struct, so that the compiler would catch all the callers for me and ensure I had modified all of them. After modifying all of them, I then changed the struct to an enum. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-09-27unpack-trees: introduce preserve_ignored to unpack_trees_optionsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-7/+1
Currently, every caller of unpack_trees() that wants to ensure ignored files are overwritten by default needs to: * allocate unpack_trees_options.dir * flip the DIR_SHOW_IGNORED flag in unpack_trees_options.dir->flags * call setup_standard_excludes AND then after the call to unpack_trees() needs to * call dir_clear() * deallocate unpack_trees_options.dir That's a fair amount of boilerplate, and every caller uses identical code. Make this easier by instead introducing a new boolean value where the default value (0) does what we want so that new callers of unpack_trees() automatically get the appropriate behavior. And move all the handling of unpack_trees_options.dir into unpack_trees() itself. While preserve_ignored = 0 is the behavior we feel is the appropriate default, we defer fixing commands to use the appropriate default until a later commit. So, this commit introduces several locations where we manually set preserve_ignored=1. This makes it clear where code paths were previously preserving ignored files when they should not have been; a future commit will flip these to instead use a value of 0 to get the behavior we want.

2021-09-27read-tree, merge-recursive: overwrite ignored files by defaultLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+10
This fixes a long-standing patchwork of ignored files handling in read-tree and merge-recursive, called out and suggested by Junio long ago. Quoting from commit dcf0c16ef1 ("core.excludesfile clean-up" 2007-11-16): git-read-tree takes --exclude-per-directory=<gitignore>, not because the flexibility was needed. Again, this was because the option predates the standardization of the ignore files. ... On the other hand, I think it makes perfect sense to fix git-read-tree, git-merge-recursive and git-clean to follow the same rule as other commands. I do not think of a valid use case to give an exclude-per-directory that is nonstandard to read-tree command, outside a "negative" test in the t1004 test script. This patch is the first step to untangle this mess. The next step would be to teach read-tree, merge-recursive and clean (in C) to use setup_standard_excludes(). History shows each of these were partially or fully fixed: * clean was taught the new trick in 1617adc7a0 ("Teach git clean to use setup_standard_excludes()", 2007-11-14). * read-tree was primarily used by checkout & merge scripts. checkout and merge later became builtins and were both fixed to use the new setup_standard_excludes() handling in fc001b526c ("checkout,merge: loosen overwriting untracked file check based on info/exclude", 2011-11-27). So the primary users were fixed, though read-tree itself was not. * merge-recursive has now been replaced as the default merge backend by merge-ort. merge-ort fixed this by using setup_standard_excludes() starting early in its implementation; see commit 6681ce5cf6 ("merge-ort: add implementation of checkout()", 2020-12-13), largely due to its design depending on checkout() and thus being influenced by the checkout code. However, merge-recursive itself was not fixed here, in part because its design meant it had difficulty differentiating between untracked files, ignored files, leftover tracked files that haven't been removed yet due to order of processing files, and files written by itself due to collisions). Make the conversion more complete by now handling read-tree and handling at least the unpack_trees() portion of merge-recursive. While merge-recursive is on its way out, fixing the unpack_trees() portion is easy and facilitates some of the later changes in this series. Note that fixing read-tree makes the --exclude-per-directory option to read-tree useless, so we remove it from the documentation (though we continue to accept it if passed). The read-tree changes happen to fix a bug in t1013. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-09-09merge: make sparse-aware with ORTLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+3
Allow 'git merge' to operate without expanding a sparse index, at least not immediately. The index still will be expanded in a few cases: 1. If the merge strategy is 'recursive', then we enable command_requires_full_index at the start of the merge_recursive() method. We expect sparse-index users to also have the 'ort' strategy enabled. 2. With the 'ort' strategy, if the merge results in a conflicted file, then we expand the index before updating the working tree. The loop that iterates over the worktree replaces index entries and tracks 'origintal_cache_nr' which can become completely wrong if the index expands in the middle of the operation. This safety valve is important before that loop starts. A later change will focus this to only expand if we indeed have a conflict outside of the sparse-checkout cone. 3. Other merge strategies are executed as a 'git merge-X' subcommand, and those strategies are currently protected with the 'command_requires_full_index' guard. Some test updates are required, including a mistaken 'git checkout -b' that did not specify the base branch, causing merges to be fast-forward merges.

2021-09-09revision: remove "submodule" from opt structLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-17/+32
Clean up a TODO in revision.h by removing the "submodule" field from struct setup_revision_opt. This field is only used to specify the ref store to use, so use rev_info->repo to determine the ref store instead. The only users of this field are merge-ort.c and merge-recursive.c. However, both these files specify the superproject as rev_info->repo and the submodule as setup_revision_opt->submodule. In order to be able to pass the submodule as rev_info->repo, all commits must be parsed with the submodule explicitly specified; this patch does that as well. (An incremental solution in which only some commits are parsed with explicit submodule will not work, because if the same commit is parsed twice in different repositories, there will be 2 heap-allocated object structs corresponding to that commit, and any flag set by the revision walking mechanism on one of them will not be reflected onto the other.)

2021-07-15rename: bump limit defaults yet againLibravatar Elijah Newren1-1/+1
These were last bumped in commit 92c57e5c1d29 (bump rename limit defaults (again), 2011-02-19), and were bumped both because processors had gotten faster, and because people were getting ugly merges that caused problems and reporting it to the mailing list (suggesting that folks were willing to spend more time waiting). Since that time: * Linus has continued recommending kernel folks to set diff.renameLimit=0 (maps to 32767, currently) * Folks with repositories with lots of renames were happy to set merge.renameLimit above 32767, once the code supported that, to get correct cherry-picks * Processors have gotten faster * It has been discovered that the timing methodology used last time probably used too large example files. The last point is probably worth explaining a bit more: * The "average" file size used appears to have been average blob size in the linux kernel history at the time (probably v2.6.25 or something close to it). * Since bigger files are modified more frequently, such a computation weights towards larger files. * Larger files may be more likely to be modified over time, but are not more likely to be renamed -- the mean and median blob size within a tree are a bit higher than the mean and median of blob sizes in the history leading up to that version for the linux kernel. * The mean blob size in v2.6.25 was half the average blob size in history leading to that point * The median blob size in v2.6.25 was about 40% of the mean blob size in v2.6.25. * Since the mean blob size is more than double the median blob size, any file as big as the mean will not be compared to any files of median size or less (because they'd be more than 50% dissimilar). * Since it is the number of files compared that provides the O(n^2) behavior, median-sized files should matter more than mean-sized ones. The combined effect of the above is that the file size used in past calculations was likely about 5x too large. Combine that with a CPU performance improvement of ~30%, and we can increase the limits by a factor of sqrt(5/(1-.3)) = 2.67, while keeping the original stated time limits. Keeping the same approximate time limit probably makes sense for diff.renameLimit (there is no progress feedback in e.g. git log -p), but the experience above suggests merge.renameLimit could be extended significantly. In fact, it probably would make sense to have an unlimited default setting for merge.renameLimit, but that would likely need to be coupled with changes to how progress is displayed. (See https://lore.kernel.org/git/YOx+Ok%2FEYvLqRMzJ@coredump.intra.peff.net/ for details in that area.) For now, let's just bump the approximate time limit from 10s to 1m. (Note: We do not want to use actual time limits, because getting results that depend on how loaded your system is that day feels bad, and because we don't discover that we won't get all the renames until after we've put in a lot of work rather than just upfront telling the user there are too many files involved.) Using the original time limit of 2s for diff.renameLimit, and bumping merge.renameLimit from 10s to 60s, I found the following timings using the simple script at the end of this commit message (on an AWS c5.xlarge which reports as "Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8124M CPU @ 3.00GHz"): N Timing 1300 1.995s 7100 59.973s So let's round down to nice even numbers and bump the limits from 400->1000, and from 1000->7000. Here is the measure_rename_perf script (adapted from https://lore.kernel.org/git/20080211113516.GB6344@coredump.intra.peff.net/ in particular to avoid triggering the linear handling from basename-guided rename detection): #!/bin/bash n=$1; shift rm -rf repo mkdir repo && cd repo git init -q -b main mkdata() { mkdir $1 for i in `seq 1 $2`; do (sed "s/^/$i /" <../sample echo tag: $1 ) >$1/$i done } mkdata initial $n git add . git commit -q -m initial mkdata new $n git add . cd new for i in *; do git mv $i $i.renamed; done cd .. git rm -q -rf initial git commit -q -m new time git diff-tree -M -l0 --summary HEAD^ HEAD Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-06-30merge-recursive: handle rename-to-self caseLibravatar Elijah Newren1-6/+13
Directory rename detection can cause transitive renames, e.g. if the two different sides of history each do one half of: A/file -> B/file B/ -> C/ then directory rename detection transitively renames to give us A/file -> C/file However, when C/ == A/, note that this gives us A/file -> A/file. merge-recursive assumed that any rename D -> E would have D != E. While that is almost always true, the above is a special case where it is not. So we cannot do things like delete the rename source, we cannot assume that a file existing at path E implies a rename/add conflict and we have to be careful about what stages end up in the output. This change feels a bit hackish. It took me surprisingly many hours to find, and given merge-recursive's design causing it to attempt to enumerate all combinations of edge and corner cases with special code for each combination, I'm worried there are other similar fixes needed elsewhere if we can just come up with the right special testcase. Perhaps an audit would rule it out, but I have not the energy. merge-recursive deserves to die, and since it is on its way out anyway, fixing this particular bug narrowly will have to be good enough.

Peff suggested we adopt the following names[1]: - hashmap_clear() - remove all entries and de-allocate any hashmap-specific data, but be ready for reuse - hashmap_clear_and_free() - ditto, but free the entries themselves - hashmap_partial_clear() - remove all entries but don't deallocate table - hashmap_partial_clear_and_free() - ditto, but free the entries This patch provides the new names and converts all existing callers over to the new naming scheme.

2020-08-03merge: make merge.renormalize work for all uses of merge machineryLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+3
The 'merge' command is not the only one that does merges; other commands like checkout -m or rebase do as well. Unfortunately, the only area of the code that checked for the "merge.renormalize" config setting was in builtin/merge.c, meaning it could only affect merges performed by the "merge" command. Move the handling of this config setting to merge_recursive_config() so that other commands can benefit from it as well. Fixes a few tests in t6038.

2020-05-14merge-recursive: fix rename/rename(1to2) for working tree with a binaryLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+12
With a rename/rename(1to2) conflict, we attempt to do a three-way merge of the file contents, so that the correct contents can be placed in the working tree at both paths. If the file is a binary, however, no content merging is possible and we should just use the original version of the file at each of the paths.

2020-03-16convert: permit passing additional metadata to filter processesLibravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+1
There are a variety of situations where a filter process can make use of some additional metadata. For example, some people find the ident filter too limiting and would like to include the commit or the branch in their smudged files. This information isn't available during checkout as HEAD hasn't been updated at that point, and it wouldn't be available in archives either. Let's add a way to pass this metadata down to the filter. We pass the blob we're operating on, the treeish (preferring the commit over the tree if one exists), and the ref we're operating on. Note that we won't pass this information in all cases, such as when renormalizing or when we're performing diffs, since it doesn't make sense in those cases. The data we currently get from the filter process looks like the following: command=smudge pathname=git.c 0000 With this change, we'll get data more like this: command=smudge pathname=git.c refname=refs/tags/v2.25.1 treeish=c522f061d551c9bb8684a7c3859b2ece4499b56b blob=7be7ad34bd053884ec48923706e70c81719a8660 0000 There are a couple things to note about this approach. For operations like checkout, treeish will always be a commit, since we cannot check out individual trees, but for other operations, like archive, we can end up operating on only a particular tree, so we'll provide only a tree as the treeish. Similar comments apply for refname, since there are a variety of cases in which we won't have a ref. This commit wires up the code to print this information, but doesn't pass any of it at this point. In a future commit, we'll have various code paths pass the actual useful data down. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <bk2204@github.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-02-27merge-recursive: apply collision handling unification to recursive caseLibravatar Elijah Newren1-105/+47
In the en/merge-path-collision topic (see commit ac193e0e0aa5, "Merge branch 'en/merge-path-collision'", 2019-01-04), all the "file collision" conflict types were modified for consistency. In particular, rename/add, rename/rename(2to1) and each rename/add piece of a rename/rename(1to2)/add[/add] conflict were made to behave like add/add conflicts have always been handled. However, this consistency was not enforced when opt->priv->call_depth > 0 for rename/rename conflicts. Update rename/rename(1to2) and rename/rename(2to1) conflicts in the recursive case to also be consistent. As an added bonus, this simplifies the code considerably.

2020-02-19merge-recursive: fix the refresh logic in update_file_flagsLibravatar Elijah Newren1-2/+5
If we need to delete a higher stage entry in the index to place the file at stage 0, then we'll lose that file's stat information. In such situations we may still be able to detect that the file on disk is the version we want (as noted by our comment in the code: /* do not overwrite file if already present */ ), but we do still need to update the mtime since we are creating a new cache_entry for that file. Update the logic used to determine whether we refresh a file's mtime. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-01-27merge-recursive: use subtraction to flip stageLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+2
The flip_stage() helper uses a bit-flipping xor to switch between "2" and "3". While clever, this relies on a property of those two numbers that is mostly coincidence. Let's write it as a subtraction; that's more clear and would extend to other numbers if somebody copies the logic.

2020-01-27merge-recursive: silence -Wxor-used-as-pow warningLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+14
The merge-recursive code uses stage number constants like this: add = &ci->ren1->dst_entry->stages[2 ^ 1]; ... add = &ci->ren2->dst_entry->stages[3 ^ 1]; The xor has the effect of flipping the "1" bit, so that "2 ^ 1" becomes "3" and "3 ^ 1" becomes "2", which correspond to the "ours" and "theirs" stages respectively. Unfortunately, clang-10 and up issue a warning for this code: merge-recursive.c:1759:40: error: result of '2 ^ 1' is 3; did you mean '1 << 1' (2)? [-Werror,-Wxor-used-as-pow] add = &ci->ren1->dst_entry->stages[2 ^ 1]; ~~^~~ 1 << 1 merge-recursive.c:1759:40: note: replace expression with '0x2 ^ 1' to silence this warning We could silence it by using 0x2, as the compiler mentions. Or by just using the constants "2" and "3" directly. But after digging into it, I do think this bit-flip is telling us something. If we just wrote: add = &ci->ren2->dst_entry->stages[2]; for the second one, you might think that "ren2" and "2" correspond. But they don't. The logic is: ren2 is theirs, which is stage 3, but we are interested in the opposite side's stage, so flip it to 2. So let's keep the bit-flipping, but let's also put it behind a named function, which will make its purpose a bit clearer. This also has the side effect of suppressing the warning (and an optimizing compiler should be able to easily turn it into a constant as before).

Code cleanup. * en/merge-recursive-oid-eq-simplify: merge-recursive: remove unnecessary oid_eq function
2020-01-02merge-recursive: remove unnecessary oid_eq functionLibravatar Elijah Newren1-22/+11
Back when merge-recursive was first introduced in commit 6d297f8137 (Status update on merge-recursive in C, 2006-07-08), it created a sha_eq() function. This function pre-dated the introduction of hashcmp() to cache.h by about a month, but was switched over to using hashcmp() as part of commit 9047ebbc22 (Split out merge_recursive() to merge-recursive.c, 2008-08-12). In commit b4da9d62f9 (merge-recursive: convert leaf functions to use struct object_id, 2016-06-24), sha_eq() was renamed to oid_eq() and its hashcmp() call was switched to oideq(). oid_eq() is basically just a wrapper around oideq() that has some extra checks to protect against NULL arguments or to allow short-circuiting if one of the arguments is NULL. I don't know if any caller ever tried to call with NULL arguments, but certainly none do now which means the extra checks serve no purpose. (Also, if these checks were genuinely useful, then they probably should be added to the main oideq() so all callers could benefit from them.) Reduce the cognitive overhead of having both oid_eq() and oideq(), by getting rid of merge-recursive's special oid_eq() wrapper.
