2013-04-18pretty: save commit encoding from logmsg_reencode if the caller needs itLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-1/+1
The commit encoding is parsed by logmsg_reencode, there's no need for the caller to re-parse it again. The reencoded message now has the new encoding, not the original one.

2013-04-16read_revisions_from_stdin: make copies for handle_revision_argLibravatar Thomas Rast1-1/+2
read_revisions_from_stdin() has passed pointers to its read buffer down to handle_revision_arg() since its inception way back in 42cabc3 (Teach rev-list an option to read revs from the standard input., 2006-09-05). Even back then, this was a bug: through add_pending_object, the argument was recorded in the object_array's 'name' field. Fix it by making a copy whenever read_revisions_from_stdin() passes an argument down the callchain. The other caller runs handle_revision_arg() on argv[], where it would be redundant to make a copy.

2013-03-22Fix revision walk for commits with the same datesLibravatar Kacper Kornet1-1/+1
Logic in still_interesting function allows to stop the commits traversing if the oldest processed commit is not older then the youngest commit on the list to process and the list contains only commits marked as not interesting ones. It can be premature when dealing with a set of coequal commits. For example git rev-list A^! --not B provides wrong answer if all commits in the range A..B had the same commit time and there are more then 7 of them. To fix this problem the relevant part of the logic in still_interesting is changed to: the walk can be stopped if the oldest processed commit is younger then the youngest commit on the list to processed.

2013-02-11log: re-encode commit messages before greppingLibravatar Jeff King1-7/+20
If you run "git log --grep=foo", we will run your regex on the literal bytes of the commit message. This can provide confusing results if the commit message is not in the same encoding as your grep expression (or worse, you have commits in multiple encodings, in which case your regex would need to be written to match either encoding). On top of this, we might also be grepping in the commit's notes, which are already re-encoded, potentially leading to grepping in a buffer with mixed encodings concatenated. This is insanity, but most people never noticed, because their terminal and their commit encodings all match. Instead, let's massage the to-be-grepped commit into a standardized encoding. There is not much point in adding a flag for "this is the encoding I expect my grep pattern to match"; the only sane choice is for it to use the log output encoding. That is presumably what the user's terminal is using, and it means that the patterns found by the grep will match the output produced by git. As a bonus, this fixes a potential segfault in commit_match when commit->buffer is NULL, as we now build on logmsg_reencode, which handles reading the commit buffer from disk if necessary. The segfault can be triggered with: git commit -m 'text1' --allow-empty git commit -m 'text2' --allow-empty git log --graph --no-walk --grep 'text2' which arguably does not make any sense (--graph inherently wants a connected history, and by --no-walk the command line is telling us to show discrete points in history without connectivity), and we probably should forbid the combination, but that is a separate issue.

2013-01-17simplify-merges: drop merge from irrelevant side branchLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+23
The merge simplification rule stated in 6546b59 (revision traversal: show full history with merge simplification, 2008-07-31) still treated merge commits too specially. Namely, in a history with this shape: ---o---o---M / x---x---x where three 'x' were on a history completely unrelated to the main history 'o' and do not touch any of the paths we are following, we still said that after simplifying all of the parents of M, 'x' (which is the leftmost 'x' that rightmost 'x simplifies down to) and 'o' (which would be the last commit on the main history that touches the paths we are following) are independent from each other, and both need to be kept. That is incorrect; when the side branch 'x' never touches the paths, it should be removed to allow M to simplify down to the last commit on the main history that touches the paths.

2013-01-10log --use-mailmap: optimize for cases without --author/--committer searchLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
When we taught the commit_match() mechanism to pay attention to the new --use-mailmap option, we started to unconditionally copy the commit object to a temporary buffer, just in case we need the author and committer lines updated via the mailmap mechanism, and rewrite author and committer using the mailmap. It turns out that this has a rather unpleasant performance implications. In the linux kernel repository, running $ git log --author='Junio C Hamano' --pretty=short >/dev/null under /usr/bin/time, with and without --use-mailmap (the .mailmap file is 118 entries long, the particular author does not appear in it), cost (with warm cache): [without --use-mailmap] 5.42user 0.26system 0:05.70elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2005936maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+137669minor)pagefaults 0swaps [with --use-mailmap] 6.47user 0.30system 0:06.78elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2006288maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+137692minor)pagefaults 0swaps which incurs about 20% overhead. The command is doing extra work, so the extra cost may be justified. But it is inexcusable to pay the cost when we do not need author/committer match. In the same repository, $ git log --grep='fix menuconfig on debian lenny' --pretty=short >/dev/null shows very similar numbers as the above: [without --use-mailmap] 5.32user 0.30system 0:05.63elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2005984maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+137672minor)pagefaults 0swaps [with --use-mailmap] 6.64user 0.24system 0:06.89elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 2006320maxresident)k 0inputs+0outputs (0major+137694minor)pagefaults 0swaps The latter case is an unnecessary performance regression. We may want to _show_ the result with mailmap applied, but we do not have to copy and rewrite the author/committer of all commits we try to match if we do not query for these fields. Trivially optimize this performace regression by limiting the rewrites for only when we are matching with author/committer fields. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-10-09log --grep: accept --basic-regexp and --perl-regexpLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
When we added the "--perl-regexp" option (or "-P") to "git grep", we should have done the same for the commands in the "git log" family, but somehow we forgot to do so. This corrects it, but we will reserve the short-and-sweet "-P" option for something else for now. Also introduce the "--basic-regexp" option for completeness, so that the "last one wins" principle can be used to defeat an earlier -E option, e.g. "git log -E --basic-regexp --grep='<bre>'". Note that it cannot have the short "-G" option as the option is to grep in the patch text in the context of "log" family. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-09-14grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse treeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
Our "grep" allows complex boolean expressions to be formed to match each individual line with operators like --and, '(', ')' and --not. Introduce the "--debug" option to show the parse tree to help people who want to debug and enhance it. Also "log" learns "--grep-debug" option to do the same. The command line parser to the log family is a lot more limited than the general "git grep" parser, but it has special handling for header matching (e.g. "--author"), and a parse tree is valuable when working on it. Note that "--all-match" is *not* any individual node in the parse tree. It is an instruction to the evaluator to check all the nodes in the top-level backbone have matched and reject a document as non-matching otherwise. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-08-30teach log --no-walk=unsorted, which avoids sortingLibravatar Martin von Zweigbergk1-3/+15
When 'git log' is passed the --no-walk option, no revision walk takes place, naturally. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, however, the provided revisions still get sorted by commit date. So e.g 'git log --no-walk HEAD HEAD~1' and 'git log --no-walk HEAD~1 HEAD' give the same result (unless the two revisions share the commit date, in which case they will retain the order given on the command line). As the commit that introduced --no-walk (8e64006 (Teach revision machinery about --no-walk, 2007-07-24)) points out, the sorting is intentional, to allow things like git log --abbrev-commit --pretty=oneline --decorate --all --no-walk to show all refs in order by commit date. But there are also other cases where the sorting is not wanted, such as <command producing revisions in order> | git log --oneline --no-walk --stdin To accomodate both cases, leave the decision of whether or not to sort up to the caller, by allowing --no-walk={sorted,unsorted}, defaulting to 'sorted' for backward-compatibility reasons.

2012-07-29diff: do not use null sha1 as a sentinel valueLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
The diff code represents paths using the diff_filespec struct. This struct has a sha1 to represent the sha1 of the content at that path, as well as a sha1_valid member which indicates whether its sha1 field is actually useful. If sha1_valid is not true, then the filespec represents a working tree file (e.g., for the no-index case, or for when the index is not up-to-date). The diff_filespec is only used internally, though. At the interfaces to the diff subsystem, callers feed the sha1 directly, and we create a diff_filespec from it. It's at that point that we look at the sha1 and decide whether it is valid or not; callers may pass the null sha1 as a sentinel value to indicate that it is not. We should not typically see the null sha1 coming from any other source (e.g., in the index itself, or from a tree). However, a corrupt tree might have a null sha1, which would cause "diff --patch" to accidentally diff the working tree version of a file instead of treating it as a blob. This patch extends the edges of the diff interface to accept a "sha1_valid" flag whenever we accept a sha1, and to use that flag when creating a filespec. In some cases, this means passing the flag through several layers, making the code change larger than would be desirable. One alternative would be to simply die() upon seeing corrupted trees with null sha1s. However, this fix more directly addresses the problem (while bogus sha1s in a tree are probably a bad thing, it is really the sentinel confusion sending us down the wrong code path that is what makes it devastating). And it means that git is more capable of examining and debugging these corrupted trees. For example, you can still "diff --raw" such a tree to find out when the bogus entry was introduced; you just cannot do a "--patch" diff (just as you could not with any other corrupted tree, as we do not have any content to diff).

2012-07-13revision: avoid work after --max-count is reachedLibravatar Jeff King1-20/+19
During a revision traversal in which --max-count has been specified, we decrement a counter for each revision returned by get_revision. When it hits 0, we typically return NULL (the exception being if we still have boundary commits to show). However, before we check the counter, we call get_revision_1 to get the next commit. This might involve looking at a large number of commits if we have restricted the traversal (e.g., we might traverse until we find the next commit whose diff actually matches a pathspec). There's no need to make this get_revision_1 call when our counter runs out. If we are not in --boundary mode, we will just throw away the result and immediately return NULL. If we are in --boundary mode, then we will still throw away the result, and then start showing the boundary commits. However, as git_revision_1 does not impact the boundary list, it should not have an impact. In most cases, avoiding this work will not be especially noticeable. However, in some cases, it can make a big difference: [before] $ time git rev-list -1 origin Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.11.2.txt 8d141a1d562abb31f27f599dbf6e10a6c06ed73e real 0m0.301s user 0m0.280s sys 0m0.016s [after] $ time git rev-list -1 origin Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.11.2.txt 8d141a1d562abb31f27f599dbf6e10a6c06ed73e real 0m0.010s user 0m0.008s sys 0m0.000s Note that the output is produced almost instantaneously in the first case, and then git uselessly spends a long time looking for the next commit to touch that file (but there isn't one, and we traverse all the way down to the roots).

When "git log" gets "--simplify-merges/by-decoration" together with "--first-parent", the combination of these options makes the simplification logic to use in-core commit objects that haven't been examined for relevance, either producing incorrect result or taking too long to produce any output. Teach the simplification logic to ignore commits that the first-parent traversal logic ignored when both are in effect to work around the issue. * jc/rev-list-simplify-merges-first-parent: revision: ignore side parents while running simplify-merges revision: note the lack of free() in simplify_merges() revision: "simplify" options imply topo-order sort

"git diff COPYING HEAD:COPYING" gave a nonsense error message that claimed that the treeish HEAD did not have COPYING in it. * mm/verify-filename-fix: verify_filename(): ask the caller to chose the kind of diagnosis sha1_name: do not trigger detailed diagnosis for file arguments
2012-07-09revision.c: the "log" family, except for "show", takes committishLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+9
Add a field to setup_revision_opt structure and allow these callers to tell the setup_revisions command parsing machinery that short SHA1 it encounters are meant to name committish. This step does not go all the way to connect the setup_revisions() to sha1_name.c yet. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09revision.c: allow handle_revision_arg() to take other flagsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+7
The existing "cant_be_filename" that tells the function that the caller knows the arg is not a path (hence it does not have to be checked for absense of the file whose name matches it) is made into a bit in the flag word. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09sha1_name.c: introduce get_sha1_committish()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-3/+3
Many callers know that the user meant to name a committish by syntactical positions where the object name appears. Calling this function allows the machinery to disambiguate shorter-than-unique abbreviated object names between committish and others. Note that this does NOT error out when the named object is not a committish. It is merely to give a hint to the disambiguation machinery. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-09sha1_name.c: teach lookup context to get_sha1_with_context()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
The function takes user input string and returns the object name (binary SHA-1) with mode bits and path when the object was looked up in a tree. Additionally give hints to help disambiguation of abbreviated object names when the caller knows what it is looking for. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-03sha1_name.c: get rid of get_sha1_with_mode()Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-6/+6
There are only two callers, and they will benefit from being able to pass disambiguation hints to underlying get_sha1_with_context() API once it happens. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
