2012-02-12refs: remove the extra_refs APILibravatar Michael Haggerty1-22/+1
The extra_refs provided a kludgy way to create fake references at a global level in the hope that they would only affect some particular code path. The last user of this API been rewritten, so strip this stuff out before somebody else gets the bad idea of using it.

2012-01-17add_packed_ref(): new function in the refs API.Libravatar Michael Haggerty1-0/+6

2012-01-17ref_array: keep track of whether references are sortedLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-7/+26
Keep track of how many entries at the beginning of a ref_array are already sorted. In sort_ref_array(), return early if the the array is already sorted (i.e., if no new references has been appended to the end of the list since the last call to sort_ref_array()). Sort ref_arrays only when needed, namely in search_ref_array() and in do_for_each_ref(). However, never call sort_ref_array() on the extra_refs, because extra_refs can contain multiple entries with the same name and because sort_ref_array() not only sorts, but de-dups its contents. This change is currently not useful, because entries are not added to ref_arrays after they are created. But in a moment they will be... Implementation note: we could store a binary "sorted" value instead of an integer, but storing the number of sorted entries leaves the way open for a couple of possible future optimizations: * In sort_ref_array(), sort *only* the unsorted entries, then merge them with the sorted entries. This should be faster if most of the entries are already sorted. * Teach search_ref_array() to do a binary search of any sorted entries, and if unsuccessful do a linear search of any unsorted entries. This would avoid the need to sort the list every time that search_ref_array() is called, and (given some intelligence about how often to sort) could significantly improve the speed in certain hypothetical usage patterns.

2011-12-13Rename resolve_ref() to resolve_ref_unsafe()Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-11/+11
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a shared buffer and can be overwritten by the next resolve_ref() calls. Callers need to pay attention, not to keep the pointer when the next call happens. Rename with "_unsafe" suffix to warn developers (or reviewers) before introducing new call sites.

2011-11-16refs: loosen over-strict "format" checkLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-10/+10
The add_extra_ref() interface is used to add an extra-ref that is _not_ our ref for the purpose of helping auto-following of tags and reducing object transfer from remote repository, and they are typically formatted as a tagname followed by ^{} to make sure no valid refs match that pattern. In other words, these entries are deliberately formatted not to pass check-refname-format test. A recent series however added a test unconditionally to the add_ref() function that is called from add_extra_ref(). The check may be sensible for other two callsites of the add_ref() interface, but definitely is a wrong thing to do in add_extra_ref(). Disable it.

2011-11-13Convert many resolve_ref() calls to read_ref*() and ref_exists()Libravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-11/+16
resolve_ref() may return a pointer to a static buffer, which is not safe for long-term use because if another resolve_ref() call happens, the buffer may be changed. Many call sites though do not care about this buffer. They simply check if the return value is NULL or not. Convert all these call sites to new wrappers to reduce resolve_ref() calls from 57 to 34. If we change resolve_ref() prototype later on to avoid passing static buffer out, this helps reduce changes.

2011-11-07refs DWIMmery: use the same rule for both "git fetch" and othersLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-8/+0
"git log frotz" can DWIM to "refs/remotes/frotz/HEAD", but in the remote access context, "git fetch frotz" to fetch what the other side happened to have fetched from what it calls 'frotz' (which may not have any relation to what we consider is 'frotz') the last time would not make much sense, so the fetch rules table did not include "refs/remotes/%.*s/HEAD". When the user really wants to, "git fetch $there remotes/frotz/HEAD" would let her do so anyway, so this is not about safety or security; it merely is about confusion avoidance and discouraging meaningless usage. Specifically, it is _not_ about ambiguity avoidance. A name that would become ambiguous if we use the same rules table for both fetch and local rev-parse would be ambiguous locally at the remote side. So for the same reason as we added rule to allow "git fetch $there v1.0" instead of "git fetch $there tags/v1.0" in the previous commit, here is a bit longer rope for the users, which incidentally simplifies our code.

2011-10-19resolve_ref(): report breakage to the caller without warningLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+11
629cd3a (resolve_ref(): emit warnings for improperly-formatted references, 2011-09-15) made resolve_ref() warn against files that are found in the directories the ref dwimmery looks at. The intent may be good, but these messages come from a wrong level of the API hierarchy. Instead record the breakage in "flags" whose purpose is to explain the result of the function to the caller, who is in a much better position to make intelligent decision based on the information. This updates sha1_name.c::dwim_ref() to warn against such a broken candidate only when it does not appear directly below $GIT_DIR to restore the traditional behaviour, as we know many files directly underneath $GIT_DIR/ are not refs. Warning against "git show config --" with "$GIT_DIR/config does not look like a well-formed ref" does not make sense, and we may later tweak the dwimmery not to even consider them as candidates, but that is a longer term topic.

The commit message for c976d41 (git-branch: add options and tests for branch renaming, 2006-11-28) mentions RENAME_REF but otherwise this is not documented anywhere, and it does not appear in any of the tests. Worse yet, the name of the actual file is "RENAMED-REF". This was supposed to hold the commit object name at the tip of the branch the most recent "branch -m/-M" renamed, but that is not necessary in order to be able to recover from a mistake.
