2018-06-29object: add repository argument to parse_objectLibravatar Stefan Beller1-1/+2
Add a repository argument to allow the callers of parse_object to be more specific about which repository to act on. This is a small mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle repositories other than the_repository yet. As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a repository other than the_repository at compile time.

2017-07-09reflog-walk: apply --since/--until to reflog datesLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+12
When doing a reflog walk, we use the commit's date to do any date limiting. In earlier versions of Git, this could lead to nonsense results, since a skipped commit would truncate the traversal. So a sequence like: git commit ... git checkout week-old-branch git checkout - git log -g --since=1.day.ago would stop at the week-old-branch, even though the "git commit" entry further back is still interesting. As of the prior commit, which uses a parent-less traversal of the reflog, you get the whole reflog minus any commits whose dates do not match the specified options. This is arguably useful, as you could scan the reflogs for commits that originated in a certain range. But more likely a user doing a reflog walk wants to limit based on the reflog entries themselves. You can simulate --until with: git log -g @{1.day.ago} but there's no way to ask Git to traverse only back to a certain date. E.g.: # show me reflog entries from the past day git log -g --since=1.day.ago This patch teaches the revision machinery to prefer the reflog entry dates to the commit dates when doing a reflog walk. Technically this is a change in behavior that affects plumbing, but the previous behavior was so buggy that it's unlikely anyone was relying on it.

2017-07-09reflog-walk: stop using fake parentsLibravatar Jeff King1-86/+51
The reflog-walk system works by putting a ref's tip into the pending queue, and then "traversing" the reflog by pretending that the parent of each commit is the previous reflog entry. This causes a number of user-visible oddities, as documented in t1414 (and the commit message which introduced it). We can fix all of them in one go by replacing the fake-reflog system with a much simpler one: just keeping a list of reflogs to show, and walking through them entry by entry. The implementation is fairly straight-forward, but there are a few items to note: 1. We obviously must skip calling add_parents_to_list() when we are traversing reflogs, since we do not want to walk the original parents at all. As a result, we must call try_to_simplify_commit() ourselves. There are other parts of add_parents_to_list() we skip, as well, but none of them should matter for a reflog traversal: - We do not allow UNINTERESTING commits, nor symmetric ranges (and we bail when these are used with "-g"). - Using --source makes no sense, since we aren't traversing. The reflog selector shows the same information with more detail. - Using --first-parent is still sensible, since you may want to see the first-parent diff for each entry. But since we're not traversing, we don't need to cull the parent list here. 2. Since we now just walk the reflog entries themselves, rather than starting with the ref tip, we now look at the "new" field of each entry rather than the "old" (i.e., we are showing entries, not faking parents). This removes all of the tricky logic around skipping past root commits. But note that we have no way to show an entry with the null sha1 in its "new" field (because such a commit obviously does not exist). Normally this would not happen, since we delete reflogs along with refs, but there is one special case. When we rename the currently checked out branch, we write two reflog entries into the HEAD log: one where the commit goes away, and another where it comes back. Prior to this commit, we show both entries with identical reflog messages. After this commit, we show only the "comes back" entry. See the update in t3200 which demonstrates this. Arguably either is fine, as the whole double-entry thing is a bit hacky in the first place. And until a recent fix, we truncated the traversal in such a case anyway, which was _definitely_ wrong. 3. We show individual reflogs in order, but choose which reflog to show at each stage based on which has the most recent timestamp. This interleaves the output from multiple reflogs based on date order, which is probably what you'd want with limiting like "-n 30". Note that the implementation aims for simplicity. It does a linear walk over the reflog queue for each commit it pulls, which may perform badly if you interleave an enormous number of reflogs. That seems like an unlikely use case; if we did want to handle it, we could probably keep a priority queue of reflogs, ordered by the timestamp of their current tip entry.

2017-07-09rev-list: check reflog_info before showing usageLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
When git-rev-list sees no pending commits, it shows a usage message. This works even when reflog-walking is requested, because the reflog-walk code currently puts the reflog tips into the pending queue. In preparation for refactoring the reflog-walk code, let's explicitly check whether we have any reflogs to walk. For now this is a noop, but the existing reflog tests will make sure that it kicks in after the refactoring. Likewise, we'll add a test that "rev-list -g" without specifying any reflogs continues to fail (so that we know our check does not kick in too aggressively). Note that the implementation needs to go into its own sub-function, as the walk code does not expose its innards outside of reflog-walk.c.

2017-07-07reflog-walk: include all fields when freeing complete_reflogsLibravatar Jeff King1-8/+18
When we encounter an error adding reflogs for a walk, we try to free any logs we have read. But we didn't free all fields, meaning that we could in theory leak all of the "items" array (which would consitute the bulk of the allocated memory). This patch adds a helper which frees all of the entries and uses it as appropriate. As it turns out, the leak seems impossible to trigger with the current code. Of the three error paths that free the complete_reflogs struct, two only kick in when the items array is empty, and the third was removed entirely in the previous commit. So this patch should be a noop in terms of behavior, but it fixes a potential maintenance headache should anybody add a new error path and copy the partial-free code. Which is what happened in 5026b47175 (add_reflog_for_walk: avoid memory leak, 2017-05-04), though its leaky call was the third one that was recently removed.

2017-07-07reflog-walk: don't free reflogs added to cacheLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+0
The add_reflog_for_walk() function keeps a cache mapping refnames to their reflog contents. We use a cached reflog entry if available, and otherwise allocate and store a new one. Since 5026b47175 (add_reflog_for_walk: avoid memory leak, 2017-05-04), when we hit an error parsing a date-based reflog spec, we free the reflog memory but leave the cache entry pointing to the now-freed memory. We can fix this by just leaving the memory intact once it has made it into the cache. This may leave an unused entry in the cache, but that's OK. And it means we also catch a similar situation: we may not have allocated at all in this invocation, but simply be pointing to a cached entry from a previous invocation (which is relying on that entry being present). The new test in t1411 exercises this case and fails when run with --valgrind or ASan. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-07-07reflog-walk: duplicate strings in complete_reflogs listLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+1
As part of the add_reflog_to_walk() function, we keep a string_list mapping refnames to their reflog contents. This serves as a cache so that accessing the same reflog twice requires only a single copy of the log in memory. The string_list is initialized via xcalloc, meaning its strdup_strings field is set to 0. But after inserting a string into the list, we unconditionally call free() on the string, leaving the list pointing to freed memory. If another reflog is added (e.g., "git log -g HEAD HEAD"), then the second one may have unpredictable results. The extra free was added by 5026b47175 (add_reflog_for_walk: avoid memory leak, 2017-05-04). Though if you look carefully, you can see that the code was buggy even before then. If we tried to read the reflogs by time but came up with no entries, we exited with an error, freeing the string in that code path. So the bug was harder to trigger, but still there. We can fix it by just asking the string list to make a copy of the string. Technically we could fix the problem by not calling free() on our string (and just handing over ownership to the string list), but there are enough conditionals that it's quite hard to figure out which code paths need the free and which do not. Simpler is better here. The new test reliably shows the problem when run with --valgrind or ASAN. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-07-05reflog-walk: skip over double-null oid due to HEAD renameLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
Since 39ee4c6c2f (branch: record creation of renamed branch in HEAD's log, 2017-02-20), a rename on the currently checked out branch will create two entries in the HEAD reflog: one where the branch goes away (switching to the null oid), and one where it comes back (switching away from the null oid). This confuses the reflog-walk code. When walking backwards, it first sees the null oid in the "old" field of the second entry. Thanks to the "root commit" logic added by 71abeb753f (reflog: continue walking the reflog past root commits, 2016-06-03), we keep looking for the next entry by scanning the "new" field from the previous entry. But that field is also null! We need to go just a tiny bit further, and look at its "old" field. But with the current code, we decide the reflog has nothing else to show and just give up. To the user this looks like the reflog was truncated by the rename operation, when in fact those entries are still there. This patch does the absolute minimal fix, which is to look back that one extra level and keep traversing. The resulting behavior may not be the _best_ thing to do in the long run (for example, we show both reflog entries each with the same commit id), but it's a simple way to fix the problem without risking further regressions.

2017-04-27timestamp_t: a new data type for timestampsLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-4/+4
Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit versions). So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type. By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all timestamps' data type in one go. As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`, we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

2016-06-06reflog: continue walking the reflog past root commitsLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-0/+6
If a repository contains more than one root commit, then its HEAD reflog may contain multiple "creation events", i.e. entries whose "from" value is the null sha1. Listing such a reflog currently stops prematurely at the first such entry, even when the reflog still contains older entries. This can scare users into thinking that their reflog got truncated after 'git checkout --orphan'. Continue walking the reflog past such creation events based on the preceeding reflog entry's "new" value. The test 'symbolic-ref writes reflog entry' in t1401-symbolic-ref implicitly relies on the current behavior of the reflog walker to stop at a root commit and thus to list only the reflog entries that are relevant for that test.

git reflog (ab)uses the log machinery to display its list of log entries. To do so it must fake commit parent information for the log walker. For refs in refs/heads this is no problem, as they should only ever point to commits. Tags and other refs however can point to anything, thus their reflog may contain non-commit objects. To avoid segfaulting, we check whether reflog entries are commits before feeding them to the log walker and skip any non-commits. This means that git reflog output will be incomplete for such refs, but that's one step up from segfaulting. A more complete solution would be to decouple git reflog from the log walker machinery.

2015-06-29convert "enum date_mode" into a structLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+2
In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the date_mode enum into a struct. Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}" constructor. However, the tricky case is where we use the enum labels as constants, like: show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL); Ideally we could say: show_date(t, tz, &{ DATE_NORMAL }); but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an actual address. Our options are basically: 1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }" definition to each caller, and pass "&d". This makes the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch statement). 2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822", "date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness is defined in one place. 3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant. But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not matter. This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep the size of the callers sane.

In fact, it should be much stronger than the date format in (1). The user may have been setting the date format to use in another part of the output (e.g., in --format="%gd (%ad)", they may have wanted to influence the author date). This patch flips the rules to: 1. if the user asked for ref@{0}, always show the index 2. if the user asked for ref@{now}, always show the date 3. otherwise, we have just "ref"; show them counted by default, but respect the presence of "--date" as a clue that the user wanted them date-based Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-05-04reflog-walk: clean up "flag" field of commit_reflog structLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+12
When we prepare to walk a reflog, we parse the specification and pull some information from it, such as which reflog to look in (e.g., HEAD), and where to start (e.g., HEAD@{10} or HEAD@{yesterday}). The resulting struct has a "recno" field to show where in the reflog we are starting. It also has a "flag" field; if true, it means the recno field came from parsing a date like HEAD@{yesterday}. There are two problems with this: 1. "flag" is an absolutely terrible name, as it conveys nothing about the meaning 2. you can tell "HEAD" from "HEAD@{yesterday}", but you can't differentiate "HEAD" from "HEAD{0}" This patch converts the flag into a tri-state (and gives it a better name!).

2011-12-16pretty: give placeholders to reflog identityLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+12
When doing a reflog walk, you can get some information about the reflog (such as the subject line), but not the identity information (i.e., name and email). Let's make those available, mimicing the options for author and committer identity. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-12-05Copy resolve_ref() return value for longer useLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+4
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer. Callers that use this value longer than a couple of statements should copy the value to avoid some hidden resolve_ref() call that may change the static buffer's value. The bug found by Tony Wang <wwwjfy@gmail.com> in builtin/merge.c demonstrates this. The first call is in cmd_merge() branch = resolve_ref("HEAD", head_sha1, 0, &flag); Then deep in lookup_commit_or_die() a few lines after, resolve_ref() may be called again and destroy "branch". lookup_commit_or_die lookup_commit_reference lookup_commit_reference_gently parse_object lookup_replace_object do_lookup_replace_object prepare_replace_object for_each_replace_ref do_for_each_ref get_loose_refs get_ref_dir get_ref_dir resolve_ref All call sites are checked and made sure that xstrdup() is called if the value should be saved.

* jk/maint-reflog-bottom: reflogs: clear flags properly in corner case
2010-11-23reflogs: clear flags properly in corner caseLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+0
The reflog-walking mechanism is based on the regular revision traversal. We just rewrite the parents of each commit in fake_reflog_parent to point to the commit in the next reflog entry instead of the real parents. However, the regular revision traversal tries not to show the same commit twice, and so sets the SHOWN flag on each commit it shows. In a reflog, however, we may want to see the same commit more than once if it appears in the reflog multiple times (which easily happens, for example, if you do a reset to a prior state). The fake_reflog_parent function takes care of this by clearing flags, including SHOWN. Unfortunately, it does so at the very end of the function, and it is possible to return early from the function if there is no fake parent to set up (e.g., because we are at the very first reflog entry on the branch). In such a case the flag is not cleared, and the entry is skipped by the revision traversal machinery as already shown. You can see this by walking the log of a ref which is set to its very first commit more than once (the test below shows such a situation). In this case the reflog walk will fail to show the entry for the initial creation of the ref. We don't want to simply move the flag-clearing to the top of the function; we want to make sure flags set during the fake-parent installation are also cleared. Instead, let's hoist the flag-clearing out of the fake_reflog_parent function entirely. It's not really about fake parents anyway, and the only caller is the get_revision machinery.

2009-10-19Introduce new pretty formats %g[sdD] for reflog informationLibravatar Thomas Rast1-3/+32
Add three new --pretty=format escapes: %gD long reflog descriptor (e.g. refs/stash@{0}) %gd short reflog descriptor (e.g. stash@{0}) %gs reflog message This is achieved by passing down the reflog info, if any, inside the pretty_print_context struct. We use the newly refactored get_reflog_selector(), and give it some extra functionality to extract a shortened ref. The shortening is cached inside the commit_reflogs struct; the only allocation of it happens in read_complete_reflog(), where it is initialised to 0. Also add another helper get_reflog_message() for the message extraction. Note that the --format="%h %gD: %gs" tests may not work in real repositories, as the --pretty formatter doesn't know to leave away the ": " on the last commit in an incomplete (because git-gc removed the old part) reflog. This equivalence is nevertheless the main goal of this patch. Thanks to Jeff King for reviews, the %gd testcase and documentation.

2009-03-20make oneline reflog dates more consistent with multiline formatLibravatar Jeff King1-5/+7
The multiline reflog format (e.g., as shown by "git log -g") will show HEAD@{<date>} rather than HEAD@{<count>} in two situations: 1. If the user gave branch@{<date>} syntax to specify the reflog 2. If the user gave a --date=<format> specifier It uses the "normal" date format in case 1, and the user-specified format in case 2. The oneline reflog format (e.g., "git reflog show" or "git log -g --oneline") will show the date in the same two circumstances. However, it _always_ shows the date as a relative date, and it always ignores the timezone. In case 2, it seems ridiculous to trigger the date but use a format totally different from what the user requested. For case 1, it is arguable that the user might want to see the relative date by default; however, the multiline version shows the normal format. This patch does three things: - refactors the "relative_date" parameter to show_reflog_message to be an actual date_mode enum, since this is how it is used (it is passed to show_date) - uses the passed date_mode parameter in the oneline format (making it consistent with the multiline format) - does not ignore the timezone parameter in oneline mode Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
