2007-03-11Change {pre,post}-receive hooks to use stdinLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-28/+30
Sergey Vlasov, Andy Parkins and Alex Riesen all pointed out that it is possible for a single invocation of receive-pack to be given more refs than the OS might allow us to pass as command line parameters to a single hook invocation. We don't want to break these up into multiple invocations (like xargs might do) as that makes it impossible for the pre-receive hook to verify multiple related ref updates occur at the same time, and it makes it harder for post-receive to send out a single batch notification. Instead we pass the reference data on a pipe connected to the hook's stdin, supplying one ref per line to the hook. This way a single hook invocation can obtain an infinite amount of ref data, without bumping into any operating system limits. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-03-11Split back out update_hook handling in receive-packLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+24
Since we have decided to change the calling conventions for the pre-receive and post-receive hooks to take the ref data on stdin rather than on the command line we cannot use the same logic to invoke the update hook anymore. So we take a small step backwards towards what we used to have, and create a specialized function for executing just the update hook. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-03-07Teach receive-pack to run pre-receive/post-receive hooksLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+11
Bill Lear pointed out that it is easy to send out notifications of changes with the update hook, but successful execution of the update hook does not necessarily mean that the ref was actually updated. Lock contention on the ref or being unable to append to the reflog may prevent the ref from being changed. Sending out notifications prior to the ref actually changing is very misleading. To help this situation I am introducing two new hooks to the receive-pack flow: pre-receive and post-receive. These new hooks are invoked only once per receive-pack execution and are passed three arguments per ref (refname, old-sha1, new-sha1). The new post-receive hook is ideal for sending out notifications, as it has the complete list of all refnames that were successfully updated as well as the old and new SHA-1 values. This allows more interesting notifications to be sent. Multiple ref updates could be easily summarized into one email, for example. The new pre-receive hook is ideal for logging update attempts, as it is run only once for the entire receive-pack operation. It can also be used to verify multiple updates happen at once, e.g. an update to the `maint` head must also be accompained by a new annotated tag. Lots of documentation improvements for receive-pack are included in this change, as we want to make sure the new hooks are clearly explained. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-03-07Refactor handling of error_string in receive-packLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-29/+33
I discovered we did not send an ng line in the report-status feedback if the ref was not updated because the repository has the config option receive.denyNonFastForwards enabled. I think the reason this happened is that it is simply too easy to forget to set error_string when returning back a failure from update() We now return an ng line for a non-fastforward update, which in turn will cause send-pack to exit with a non-zero exit status. Hence the modified test. This refactoring changes update to return a const char* describing the error, which execute_commands always loads into error_string. The result is what I think is cleaner code, and allows us to initialize the error_string member to NULL when we read_head_info. I want error_string to be NULL in all commands before we call execute_commands, so that we can reuse the run_hook function to execute a new pre-receive hook. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

2007-03-07Refactor run_update_hook to be more usefulLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-19/+44
This is a simple refactoring of run_update_hook to allow the function to be passed the name of the hook it runs and also to build the argument list from a list of struct commands, rather than just one struct command. The refactoring is to support new pre-receive and post-receive hooks that will be given the entire list of struct commands, rather than just one struct command. These new hooks will follow in another patch. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2007-03-07Move post-update hook to after all other activityLibravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+1
As the post-update hook is meant to run after we have completed the receipt of the pushed changes, and it might actually try to kick off a `repack -a -d`, we should delay on invoking it until after we have removed the *.keep file on the uploaded pack (if we kept the pack).

This failure to catch the failure of write_ref_sha1 was noticed by Bill Lear. The ref will not update if the log file could not be appended to (due to file permissions problems). Such a failure should be flagged as a failure to update the ref, so that the client knows the push did not succeed. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Leftover from this will be fixed in a separate step, including idiotic conversions like if (!strncmp("foo", arg, 3)) => if (!(-prefixcmp(arg, "foo"))) This was done by using this script in px.perl #!/usr/bin/perl -i.bak -p if (/strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)/ && (length($2) == $3)) { s|strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)|prefixcmp($1, "$2")|; } if (/strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)/ && (length($1) == $3)) { s|strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)|(-prefixcmp($2, "$1"))|; } and running: $ git grep -l strncmp -- '*.c' | xargs perl px.perl Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-01-28Don't force everybody to call setup_ident().Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+0
Back when only handful commands that created commit and tag were the only users of committer identity information, it made sense to explicitly call setup_ident() to pre-fill the default value from the gecos information. But it is much simpler for programs to make the call automatic when get_ident() is called these days, since many more programs want to use the information when updating the reflog.

2007-01-25Allow non-developer to clone, checkout and fetch more easily.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+0
The code that uses committer_info() in reflog can barf and die whenever it is asked to update a ref. And I do not think calling ignore_missing_committer_name() upfront like recent receive-pack did in the aplication is a reasonable workaround. What the patch does. - git_committer_info() takes one parameter. It used to be "if this is true, then die() if the name is not available due to bad GECOS, otherwise issue a warning once but leave the name empty". The reason was because we wanted to prevent bad commits from being made by git-commit-tree (and its callers). The value 0 is only used by "git var -l". Now it takes -1, 0 or 1. When set to -1, it does not complain but uses the pw->pw_name when name is not available. Existing 0 and 1 values mean the same thing as they used to mean before. 0 means issue warnings and leave it empty, 1 means barf and die. - ignore_missing_committer_name() and its existing caller (receive-pack, to set the reflog) have been removed. - git-format-patch, to come up with the phoney message ID when asked to thread, now passes -1 to git_committer_info(). This codepath uses only the e-mail part, ignoring the name. It used to barf and die. The other call in the same program when asked to add signed-off-by line based on committer identity still passes 1 to make sure it barfs instead of adding a bogus s-o-b line. - log_ref_write in refs.c, to come up with the name to record who initiated the ref update in the reflog, passes -1. It used to barf and die. The last change means that git-update-ref, git-branch, and commit walker backends can now be used in a repository with reflog by somebody who does not have the user identity required to make a commit. They all used to barf and die. I've run tests and all of them seem to pass, and also tried "git clone" as a user whose GECOS is empty -- git clone works again now (it was broken when reflog was enabled by default). But this definitely needs extra sets of eyeballs. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-12-30Use /dev/null for update hook stdin.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+4
Currently the update hook invoked by receive-pack has its stdin connected to the pushing client. The hook shouldn't attempt to read from this stream, and doing so may consume data that was meant for receive-pack. Instead we should give the update hook /dev/null as its stdin, ensuring that it always receives EOF and doesn't disrupt the protocol if it attempts to read any data. The post-update hook is similar, as it gets invoked with /dev/null on stdin to prevent the hook from reading data from the client. Previously we had invoked it with stdout also connected to /dev/null, throwing away anything on stdout, to prevent client protocol errors. Instead we should redirect stdout to stderr, like we do with the update hook. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-12-30Redirect update hook stdout to stderr.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+2
If an update hook outputs to stdout then that output will be sent back over the wire to the push client as though it were part of the git protocol. This tends to cause protocol errors on the client end of the connection, as the hook output is not expected in that context. Most hook developers work around this by making sure their hook outputs everything to stderr. But hooks shouldn't need to perform such special behavior. Instead we can just dup stderr to stdout prior to invoking the update hook. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-12-30Remove unnecessary argc parameter from run_command_v.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-2/+2
The argc parameter is never used by the run_command_v family of functions. Instead they require that the passed argv[] be NULL terminated so they can rely on the operating system's execvp function to correctly pass the arguments to the new process. Making the caller pass the argc is just confusing, as the caller could be mislead into believing that the argc might take precendece over the argv, or that the argv does not need to be NULL terminated. So goodbye argc. Don't come back. Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include system header files. (1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and xdelta code are exempt from the following rules; (2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h, builtin.h, pkt-line.h); (3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h" need not be included in individual C source files. (4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem specific header files (e.g. expat.h). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2006-12-17Default GIT_COMMITTER_NAME to login name in recieve-pack.Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-0/+2
If GIT_COMMITTER_NAME is not available in receive-pack but reflogs are enabled we would normally die out with an error message asking the user to correct their environment settings. Now that reflogs are enabled by default in (what we guessed to be) non-bare Git repositories this may cause problems for some users who don't have their full name in the gecos field and who don't have access to the remote system to correct the problem. So rather than die()'ing out in receive-pack when we try to log a ref change and have no committer name we default to the username, as obtained from the host's password database.

2006-12-06change the unpack limit treshold to a saner valueLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-1/+1
Currently the treshold is 5000. The likelihood of this value to ever be crossed for a single push is really small making it not really useful. The optimal treshold for a pure space saving on a filesystem with 4kb blocks is 3. However this is likely to create many small packs concentrating a large number of files in a single directory compared to the same objects which are spread over 256 directories when loose. This means we would need 512 objects per pack on average to approximagte the same directory cost (a pack has 2 files because of the index). But 512 is a really high value just like 5000 since most pushes are unlikely to have that many objects. So let's try with a value of 100 which should have a good balance between small pushes going to be exploded into loose objects and large pushes kept as whole packs. This is not a replacement for periodic repacks of course. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-11-03Teach receive-pack how to keep pack files based on object count.Libravatar Shawn Pearce1-19/+79
Since keeping a pushed pack or exploding it into loose objects should be a local repository decision this teaches receive-pack to decide if it should call unpack-objects or index-pack --stdin --fix-thin based on the setting of receive.unpackLimit and the number of objects contained in the received pack. If the number of objects (hdr_entries) in the received pack is below the value of receive.unpackLimit (which is 5000 by default) then we unpack-objects as we have in the past. If the hdr_entries >= receive.unpackLimit then we call index-pack and ask it to include our pid and hostname in the .keep file to make it easier to identify why a given pack has been kept in the repository. Currently this leaves every received pack as a kept pack. We really don't want that as received packs will tend to be small. Instead we want to delete the .keep file automatically after all refs have been updated. That is being left as room for future improvement. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

Modifying PATH is not desirable as it result in behavior differing from the user's intentions, as we may end up prepending "/usr/bin" to PATH. - git C programs will use exec*_git_cmd() APIs to exec sub-commands. - exec*_git_cmd() will execute a git program by searching for it in the following directories: 1. --exec-path (as used by "git") 2. The GIT_EXEC_PATH environment variable. 3. $(gitexecdir) as set in Makefile (default value $(bindir)). - git wrapper will modify PATH as before to enable shell scripts to invoke "git-foo" commands. Ideally, shell scripts should use the git wrapper to become independent of PATH, and then modifying PATH will not be necessary.

ISO C99 (and GCC 3.x or later) lets you write a flexible array at the end of a structure, like this: struct frotz { int xyzzy; char nitfol[]; /* more */ }; GCC 2.95 and 2.96 let you to do this with "char nitfol[0]"; unfortunately this is not allowed by ISO C90. This declares such construct like this: struct frotz { int xyzzy; char nitfol[FLEX_ARRAY]; /* more */ }; and git-compat-util.h defines FLEX_ARRAY to 0 for gcc 2.95 and empty for others. If you are using a C90 C compiler, you should be able to override this with CFLAGS=-DFLEX_ARRAY=1 from the command line of "make". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-12-27send-pack/receive-pack: allow errors to be reported back to pusher.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-32/+88
This updates the protocol between git-send-pack/git-receive-pack in a backward compatible way to allow failures at the receiving end to be propagated back to the sender. Most notably, versions of git-push before this could not notice if the update hook on the receiving end refused to update the ref for its own policy reasons.
