2010-04-19Extract verify_pack_index for reuse from verify_packLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+1
The dumb HTTP transport should verify an index is completely valid before trying to use it. That requires checking the header/footer but also checking the complete content SHA-1. All of this logic is already in the front half of verify_pack, so pull it out into a new function that can be reused. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2010-02-23move encode_in_pack_object_header() to a better placeLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-0/+1
Commit 1b22b6c897 made duplicated versions of encode_header() into a common version called encode_in_pack_object_header(). There is however a better location that sha1_file.c for such a function though, as sha1_file.c contains nothing related to the creation of packs, and it is quite populated already. Also the comment that was moved to the header file should really remain near the function as it covers implementation details and provides no information about the actual function interface.

2008-08-29improve reliability of fixup_pack_header_footer()Libravatar Nicolas Pitre1-1/+1
Currently, this function has the potential to read corrupted pack data from disk and give it a valid SHA1 checksum. Let's add the ability to validate SHA1 checksum of existing data along the way, including before and after any arbitrary point in the pack.

2008-06-24verify-pack: check packed object CRC when using index version 2Libravatar Nicolas Pitre1-1/+1
To do so, check_pack_crc() moved from builtin-pack-objects.c to pack-check.c where it is more logical to share. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2008-06-24move show_pack_info() where it belongsLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-1/+1
This is called when verify_pack() has its verbose argument set, and verbose in this context makes sense only for the actual 'git verify-pack' command. Therefore let's move show_pack_info() to builtin-verify-pack.c instead and remove useless verbose argument from verify_pack().

2007-10-17fix const issues with some functionsLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-1/+1
Two functions, namely write_idx_file() and open_pack_file(), currently return a const pointer. However that pointer is either a copy of the first argument, or set to a malloc'd buffer when that first argument is null. In the later case it is wrong to qualify that pointer as const since ownership of the buffer is transferred to the caller to dispose of, and obviously the free() function is not meant to be passed const pointers. Making the return pointer not const causes a warning when the first argument is returned since that argument is also marked const. The correct thing to do is therefore to remove the const qualifiers, avoiding the need for ugly casts only to silence some warnings.

2007-09-19Refactor index-pack "keep $sha1" handling for reuseLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+1
There is a subtle (but important) linkage between receive-pack and index-pack that allows index-pack to create a packfile but protect it from being deleted by a concurrent `git repack -a -d` operation. The linkage works by having index-pack mark the newly created pack with a ".keep" file and then it passes the SHA-1 name of that new packfile to receive-pack along its stdout channel. The receive-pack process must unkeep the packfile by deleting the .keep file, but can it can only do so after all elgible refs have been updated in the receiving repository. This ensures that the packfile is either kept or its objects are reachable, preventing a concurrent repacker from deleting the packfile before it can determine that its objects are actually needed by the repository. The new builtin-fetch code needs to perform the same actions if it choose to run index-pack rather than unpack-objects, so I am moving this code out to its own function where both receive-pack and fetch-pack are able to invoke it when necessary. The caller is responsible for deleting the returned ".keep" and freeing the path if the returned path is not NULL. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-06-02Unify write_index_file functionsLibravatar Geert Bosch1-0/+14
This patch unifies the write_index_file functions in builtin-pack-objects.c and index-pack.c. As the name "index" is overloaded in git, move in the direction of using "idx" and "pack idx" when refering to the pack index. There should be no change in functionality.

2007-03-16[PATCH] clean up pack index handling a bitLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-15/+15
Especially with the new index format to come, it is more appropriate to encapsulate more into check_packed_git_idx() and assume less of the index format in struct packed_git. To that effect, the index_base is renamed to index_data with void * type so it is not used directly but other pointers initialized with it. This allows for a couple pointer cast removal, as well as providing a better generic name to grep for when adding support for new index versions or formats. And index_data is declared const too while at it. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-01-18Use fixed-size integers for the on-disk pack structure.Libravatar Simon 'corecode' Schubert1-3/+3
Plain integer types without a fixed size can vary between platforms. Even though all common platforms use 32-bit ints, there is no guarantee that this won't change at some point. Furthermore, specifying an integer type with explicit size makes the definition of structures more obvious.

2007-01-17Document pack .idx file format upgrade strategy.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+28
Way back when Junio developed the 64 bit index topic he came up with a means of changing the .idx file format so that older Git clients would recognize that they don't understand the file and refuse to read it, while newer clients could tell the difference between the old-style and new-style .idx files. Unfortunately this wasn't recorded anywhere. This change documents how we might go about changing the .idx file format by using a special signature in the first four bytes. Credit (and possible blame) goes completely to Junio for thinking up this technique. The change also modifies the error message of the current Git code so that users get a recommendation to upgrade their Git software should this version or later encounter a new-style .idx which it cannot process. We already do this for the .pack files, but since we usually process the .idx files first its important that these files are recognized and encourage an upgrade. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2006-10-14Revert "move pack creation to version 3"Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This reverts commit 16854571aae6302f457c5fbee41ac64669b09595. Git as recent as v1.1.6 do not understand version 3 delta. v1.2.0 is Ok and I personally would say it is old enough, but the improvement between version 2 and version 3 delta is not bit enough to justify breaking older clients. We should resurrect this later, but when we do so we shold make it conditional. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-09-27make pack data reuse compatible with both delta typesLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-3/+0
This is the missing part to git-pack-objects allowing it to reuse delta data to/from any of the two delta types. It can reuse delta from any type, and it outputs base offsets when --allow-delta-base-offset is provided and the base is also included in the pack. Otherwise it outputs base sha1 references just like it always did. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-07-12Remove TYPE_* constant macros and use object_type enums consistently.Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-14/+1
This updates the type-enumeration constants introduced to reduce the memory footprint of "struct object" to match the type bits already used in the packfile format, by removing the former (i.e. TYPE_* constant macros) and using the latter (i.e. enum object_type) throughout the code for consistency. Eventually we can stop passing around the "type strings" entirely, and this will help - no confusion about two different integer enumeration.

2006-02-17pack-objects: reuse data from existing packs.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
When generating a new pack, notice if we have already needed objects in existing packs. If an object is stored deltified, and its base object is also what we are going to pack, then reuse the existing deltified representation unconditionally, bypassing all the expensive find_deltas() and try_deltas() calls. Also, notice if what we are going to write out exactly match what is already in an existing pack (either deltified or just compressed). In such a case, we can just copy it instead of going through the usual uncompressing & recompressing cycle.

2006-02-09remove delta-against-self bitLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-0/+1
After experimenting with code to add the ability to encode a delta against part of the deltified file, it turns out that resulting packs are _bigger_ than when this ability is not used. The raw delta output might be smaller, but it doesn't compress as well using gzip with a negative net saving on average. Said bit would in fact be more useful to allow for encoding the copying of chunks larger than 64KB providing more savings with large files. This will correspond to packs version 3. While the current code still produces packs version 2, it is made future proof so pack versions 2 and 3 are accepted. Any pack version 2 are compatible with version 3 since the redefined bit was never used before. When enough time has passed, code to use that bit to produce version 3 packs could be added.

2005-06-30[PATCH] verify-pack updates.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
Nico pointed out that having verify_pack.c and verify-pack.c was confusing. Rename verify_pack.c to pack-check.c as suggested, and enhances the verification done quite a bit. - Built-in sha1_file unpacking knows that a base object of a deltified object _must_ be in the same pack, and takes advantage of that fact. - Earlier verify-pack command only checked the SHA1 sum for the entire pack file and did not look into its contents. It now checks everything idx file claims to have unpacks correctly. - It now has a hook to give more detailed information for objects contained in the pack under -v flag.

2005-06-29[PATCH] Add git-verify-pack command.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
Given a list of <pack>.idx files, this command validates the index file and the corresponding .pack file for consistency. This patch also uses the same validation mechanism in fsck-cache when the --full flag is used. During normal operation, sha1_file.c verifies that a given .idx file matches the .pack file by comparing the SHA1 checksum stored in .idx file and .pack file as a minimum sanity check. We may further want to check the pack signature and version when we map the pack, but that would be a separate patch. Earlier, errors to map a pack file was not flagged fatal but led to a random fatal error later. This version explicitly die()s when such an error is detected.

2005-06-28Make git pack files use little-endian size encodingLibravatar Linus Torvalds1-6/+13
This makes it match the new delta encoding, and admittedly makes the code easier to follow. This also updates the PACK file version to 2, since this (and the delta encoding change in the previous commit) are incompatible with the old format.
2005-06-28Change pack file format. Hopefully for the last time.Libravatar Linus Torvalds1-0/+23
This also adds a header with a signature, version info, and the number of objects to the pack file. It also encodes the file length and type more efficiently.
