2017-03-02interpret_branch_name: allow callers to restrict expansionsLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The interpret_branch_name() function converts names like @{-1} and @{upstream} into branch names. The expanded ref names are not fully qualified, and may be outside of the refs/heads/ namespace (e.g., "@" expands to "HEAD", and "@{upstream}" is likely to be in "refs/remotes/"). This is OK for callers like dwim_ref() which are primarily interested in resolving the resulting name, no matter where it is. But callers like "git branch" treat the result as a branch name in refs/heads/. When we expand to a ref outside that namespace, the results are very confusing (e.g., "git branch @" tries to create refs/heads/HEAD, which is nonsense). Callers can't know from the returned string how the expansion happened (e.g., did the user really ask for a branch named "HEAD", or did we do a bogus expansion?). One fix would be to return some out-parameters describing the types of expansion that occurred. This has the benefit that the caller can generate precise error messages ("I understood @{upstream} to mean origin/master, but that is a remote tracking branch, so you cannot create it as a local name"). However, out-parameters make the function interface somewhat cumbersome. Instead, let's do the opposite: let the caller tell us which elements to expand. That's easier to pass in, and none of the callers give more precise error messages than "@{upstream} isn't a valid branch name" anyway (which should be sufficient). The strbuf_branchname() function needs a similar parameter, as most of the callers access interpret_branch_name() through it. We can break the callers down into two groups: 1. Callers that are happy with any kind of ref in the result. We pass "0" here, so they continue to work without restrictions. This includes merge_name(), the reflog handling in add_pending_object_with_path(), and substitute_branch_name(). This last is what powers dwim_ref(). 2. Callers that have funny corner cases (mostly in git-branch and git-checkout). These need to make use of the new parameter, but I've left them as "0" in this patch, and will address them individually in follow-on patches.

"git log rev^..rev" is an often-used revision range specification to show what was done on a side branch merged at rev. This has gained a short-hand "rev^-1". In general "rev^-$n" is the same as "^rev^$n rev", i.e. what has happened on other branches while the history leading to nth parent was looking the other way. * vn/revision-shorthand-for-side-branch-log: revision: new rev^-n shorthand for rev^n..rev

"git log rev^..rev" is commonly used to show all work done on and merged from a side branch. This patch introduces a shorthand "rev^-" for this and additionally allows "rev^-$n" to mean "reachable from rev, excluding what is reachable from the nth parent of rev". For example, for a two-parent merge, you can use rev^-2 to get the set of commits which were made to the main branch while the topic branch was prepared.

When "git rebase" tries to compare set of changes on the updated upstream and our own branch, it computes patch-id for all of these changes and attempts to find matches.

2016-07-25grep: further simplify setting the pattern typeLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+4
When c5c31d33 (grep: move pattern-type bits support to top-level grep.[ch], 2012-10-03) introduced grep_commit_pattern_type() helper function, the intention was to allow the users of grep API to having to fiddle only with .pattern_type_option (which can be set to "fixed", "basic", "extended", and "pcre"), and then immediately before compiling the pattern strings for use, call grep_commit_pattern_type() to have it prepare various bits in the grep_opt structure (like .fixed, .regflags, etc.). However, grep_set_pattern_type_option() helper function the grep API internally uses were left as an external function by mistake. This function shouldn't have been made callable by the users of the API. Later when the grep API was used in revision traversal machinery, the caller then mistakenly started calling the function around 34a4ae55 (log --grep: use the same helper to set -E/-F options as "git grep", 2012-10-03), instead of setting the .pattern_type_option field and letting the grep_commit_pattern_type() to take care of the details. This caused an unnecessary bug that made a configured grep.patternType take precedence over the command line options (e.g. --basic-regexp, --fixed-strings) in "git log" family of commands.

A commit log message sometimes tries to line things up using tabs, assuming fixed-width font with the standard 8-place tab settings.

2016-03-16list-objects: pass full pathname to callbacksLibravatar Jeff King1-15/+2
When we find a blob at "a/b/c", we currently pass this to our show_object_fn callbacks as two components: "a/b/" and "c". Callbacks which want the full value then call path_name(), which concatenates the two. But this is an inefficient interface; the path is a strbuf, and we could simply append "c" to it temporarily, then roll back the length, without creating a new copy. So we could improve this by teaching the callsites of path_name() this trick (and there are only 3). But we can also notice that no callback actually cares about the broken-down representation, and simply pass each callback the full path "a/b/c" as a string. The callback code becomes even simpler, then, as we do not have to worry about freeing an allocated buffer, nor rolling back our modification to the strbuf. This is theoretically less efficient, as some callbacks would not bother to format the final path component. But in practice this is not measurable. Since we use the same strbuf over and over, our work to grow it is amortized, and we really only pay to memcpy a few bytes.

2016-03-16list-objects: convert name_path to a strbufLibravatar Jeff King1-20/+5
The "struct name_path" data is examined in only two places: we generate it in process_tree(), and we convert it to a single string in path_name(). Everyone else just passes it through to those functions. We can further note that process_tree() already keeps a single strbuf with the leading tree path, for use with tree_entry_interesting(). Instead of building a separate name_path linked list, let's just use the one we already build in "base". This reduces the amount of code (especially tricky code in path_name() which did not check for integer overflows caused by deep or large pathnames). It is also more efficient in some instances. Any time we were using tree_entry_interesting, we were building up the strbuf anyway, so this is an immediate and obvious win there. In cases where we were not, we trade off storing "pathname/" in a strbuf on the heap for each level of the path, instead of two pointers and an int on the stack (with one pointer into the tree object). On a 64-bit system, the latter is 20 bytes; so if path components are less than that on average, this has lower peak memory usage. In practice it probably doesn't matter either way; we are already holding in memory all of the tree objects leading up to each pathname, and for normal-depth pathnames, we are only talking about hundreds of bytes. This patch leaves "struct name_path" as a thin wrapper around the strbuf, to avoid disrupting callbacks. We should fix them, but leaving it out makes this diff easier to view.

We'd like to eventually get rid of name_path entirely in favor of a single buffer, and dropping this custom printing code is part of that. As a first step, let's use path_name() to format the list into a single buffer, and print that. This is strictly less efficient than the original, but it's a temporary step in the refactoring; our end game will be to get the fully formatted name in the first place.

2015-12-17revision.c: propagate tag names from pending arrayLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+1
When we unwrap a tag to find its commit for a traversal, we do not propagate the "name" field of the tag in the pending array (i.e., the ref name the user gave us in the first place) to the commit (instead, we use an empty string). This means that "git log --source" will never show the tag-name for commits we reach through it. This was broken in 2073949 (traverse_commit_list: support pending blobs/trees with paths, 2014-10-15). That commit tried to be careful and avoid propagating the path information for a tag (which would be nonsensical) to trees and blobs. But it should not have cut off the "name" field, which should carry forward to children. Note that this does mean that the "name" field will carry forward to blobs and trees, too. Whereas prior to 2073949, we always gave them an empty string. This is the right thing to do, but in practice no callers probably use it (since now we have an explicit separate "path" field, which was the point of 2073949). We add tests here not only for the broken case, but also a basic sanity test of "log --source" in general, which did not have any coverage in the test suite.

If you init or clone an empty repository, the initial message from running "git log" is not very friendly: $ git init Initialized empty Git repository in /home/peff/foo/.git/ $ git log fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD' Let's detect this situation and write a more friendly message: $ git log fatal: your current branch 'master' does not have any commits yet We also detect the case that 'HEAD' points to a broken ref; this should be even less common, but is easy to see. Note that we do not diagnose all possible cases. We rely on resolve_ref, which means we do not get information about complex cases. E.g., "--default master" would use dwim_ref to find "refs/heads/master", but we notice only that "master" does not exist. Similarly, a complex sha1 expression like "--default HEAD^2" will not resolve as a ref. But that's OK. We fall back to a generic error message in those cases, and they are unlikely to be used anyway. Catching an empty or broken "HEAD" improves the common case, and the other cases are not regressed. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Code and documentation clean-up to "git bisect". * ad/bisect-cleanup: bisect: don't mix option parsing and non-trivial code bisect: simplify the addition of new bisect terms bisect: replace hardcoded "bad|good" by variables Documentation/bisect: revise overall content Documentation/bisect: move getting help section to the end bisect: correction of typo
2015-08-03bisect: simplify the addition of new bisect termsLibravatar Antoine Delaite1-2/+16
We create a file BISECT_TERMS in the repository .git to be read during a bisection. There's no user-interface yet, but "git bisect" works if terms other than old/new or bad/good are set in .git/BISECT_TERMS. The fonctions to be changed if we add new terms are quite few.
