2020-06-24revision: reallocate TOPO_WALK object flagsLibravatar René Scharfe1-3/+4
The bit fields in struct object have an unfortunate layout. Here's what pahole reports on x86_64 GNU/Linux: struct object { unsigned int parsed:1; /* 0: 0 4 */ unsigned int type:3; /* 0: 1 4 */ /* XXX 28 bits hole, try to pack */ /* Force alignment to the next boundary: */ unsigned int :0; unsigned int flags:29; /* 4: 0 4 */ /* XXX 3 bits hole, try to pack */ struct object_id oid; /* 8 32 */ /* size: 40, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */ /* sum members: 32 */ /* sum bitfield members: 33 bits, bit holes: 2, sum bit holes: 31 bits */ /* last cacheline: 40 bytes */ }; Notice the 1+3+29=33 bits in bit fields and 28+3=31 bits in holes. There are holes inside the flags bit field as well -- while some object flags are used for more than one purpose, 22, 23 and 24 are still free. Use 23 and 24 instead of 27 and 28 for TOPO_WALK_EXPLORED and TOPO_WALK_INDEGREE. This allows us to reduce FLAG_BITS by one so that all bitfields combined fit into a single 32-bit slot: struct object { unsigned int parsed:1; /* 0: 0 4 */ unsigned int type:3; /* 0: 1 4 */ unsigned int flags:28; /* 0: 4 4 */ struct object_id oid; /* 4 32 */ /* size: 36, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */ /* last cacheline: 36 bytes */ }; With this tight packing the size of struct object is reduced by 10%. Other architectures probably benefit as well. Signed-off-by: René Scharfe <l.s.r@web.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2020-04-22Merge branch 'ds/revision-show-pulls'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+5
"git log" learned "--show-pulls" that helps pathspec limited history views; a merge commit that takes the whole change from a side branch, which is normally omitted from the output, is shown in addition to the commits that introduce real changes. * ds/revision-show-pulls: revision: --show-pulls adds helpful merges
2020-04-10revision: --show-pulls adds helpful mergesLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+5
The default file history simplification of "git log -- <path>" or "git rev-list -- <path>" focuses on providing the smallest set of commits that first contributed a change. The revision walk greatly restricts the set of walked commits by visiting only the first TREESAME parent of a merge commit, when one exists. This means that portions of the commit-graph are not walked, which can be a performance benefit, but can also "hide" commits that added changes but were ignored by a merge resolution. The --full-history option modifies this by walking all commits and reporting a merge commit as "interesting" if it has _any_ parent that is not TREESAME. This tends to be an over-representation of important commits, especially in an environment where most merge commits are created by pull request completion. Suppose we have a commit A and we create a commit B on top that changes our file. When we merge the pull request, we create a merge commit M. If no one else changed the file in the first-parent history between M and A, then M will not be TREESAME to its first parent, but will be TREESAME to B. Thus, the simplified history will be "B". However, M will appear in the --full-history mode. However, suppose that a number of topics T1, T2, ..., Tn were created based on commits C1, C2, ..., Cn between A and M as follows: A----C1----C2--- ... ---Cn----M------P1---P2--- ... ---Pn \ \ \ \ / / / / \ \__.. \ \/ ..__T1 / Tn \ \__.. /\ ..__T2 / \_____________________B \____________________/ If the commits T1, T2, ... Tn did not change the file, then all of P1 through Pn will be TREESAME to their first parent, but not TREESAME to their second. This means that all of those merge commits appear in the --full-history view, with edges that immediately collapse into the lower history without introducing interesting single-parent commits. The --simplify-merges option was introduced to remove these extra merge commits. By noticing that the rewritten parents are reachable from their first parents, those edges can be simplified away. Finally, the commits now look like single-parent commits that are TREESAME to their "only" parent. Thus, they are removed and this issue does not cause issues anymore. However, this also ends up removing the commit M from the history view! Even worse, the --simplify-merges option requires walking the entire history before returning a single result. Many Git users are using Git alongside a Git service that provides code storage alongside a code review tool commonly called "Pull Requests" or "Merge Requests" against a target branch. When these requests are accepted and merged, they typically create a merge commit whose first parent is the previous branch tip and the second parent is the tip of the topic branch used for the request. This presents a valuable order to the parents, but also makes that merge commit slightly special. Users may want to see not only which commits changed a file, but which pull requests merged those commits into their branch. In the previous example, this would mean the users want to see the merge commit "M" in addition to the single- parent commit "C". Users are even more likely to want these merge commits when they use pull requests to merge into a feature branch before merging that feature branch into their trunk. In some sense, users are asking for the "first" merge commit to bring in the change to their branch. As long as the parent order is consistent, this can be handled with the following rule: Include a merge commit if it is not TREESAME to its first parent, but is TREESAME to a later parent. These merges look like the merge commits that would result from running "git pull <topic>" on a main branch. Thus, the option to show these commits is called "--show-pulls". This has the added benefit of showing the commits created by closing a pull request or merge request on any of the Git hosting and code review platforms. To test these options, extend the standard test example to include a merge commit that is not TREESAME to its first parent. It is surprising that that option was not already in the example, as it is instructive. In particular, this extension demonstrates a common issue with file history simplification. When a user resolves a merge conflict using "-Xours" or otherwise ignoring one side of the conflict, they create a TREESAME edge that probably should not be TREESAME. This leads users to become frustrated and complain that "my change disappeared!" In my experience, showing them history with --full-history and --simplify-merges quickly reveals the problematic merge. As mentioned, this option is expensive to compute. The --show-pulls option _might_ show the merge commit (usually titled "resolving conflicts") more quickly. Of course, this depends on the user having the correct parent order, which is backwards when using "git pull master" from a topic branch. There are some special considerations when combining the --show-pulls option with --simplify-merges. This requires adding a new PULL_MERGE object flag to store the information from the initial TREESAME comparisons. This helps avoid dropping those commits in later filters. This is covered by a test, including how the parents can be simplified. Since "struct object" has already ruined its 32-bit alignment by using 33 bits across parsed, type, and flags member, let's not make it worse. PULL_MERGE is used in revision.c with the same value (1u<<15) as REACHABLE in commit-graph.c. The REACHABLE flag is only used when writing a commit-graph file, and a revision walk using --show-pulls does not happen in the same process. Care must be taken in the future to ensure this remains the case. Update Documentation/rev-list-options.txt with significant details around this option. This requires updating the example in the History Simplification section to demonstrate some of the problems with TREESAME second parents.

When commit subjects or authors have non-ASCII characters, git format-patch Q-encodes them so they can be safely sent over email. However, if the patch transfer method is something other than email (web review tools, sneakernet), this only serves to make the patch metadata harder to read without first applying it (unless you can decode RFC 2047 in your head). git am as well as some email software supports non-Q-encoded mail as described in RFC 6531.

2020-04-06revision.c: use Bloom filters to speed up path based revision walksLibravatar Garima Singh1-0/+11
Revision walk will now use Bloom filters for commits to speed up revision walks for a particular path (for computing history for that path), if they are present in the commit-graph file. We load the Bloom filters during the prepare_revision_walk step, currently only when dealing with a single pathspec. Extending it to work with multiple pathspecs can be explored and built on top of this series in the future. While comparing trees in rev_compare_trees(), if the Bloom filter says that the file is not different between the two trees, we don't need to compute the expensive diff. This is where we get our performance gains. The other response of the Bloom filter is '`:maybe', in which case we fall back to the full diff calculation to determine if the path was changed in the commit. We do not try to use Bloom filters when the '--walk-reflogs' option is specified. The '--walk-reflogs' option does not walk the commit ancestry chain like the rest of the options. Incorporating the performance gains when walking reflog entries would add more complexity, and can be explored in a later series. Performance Gains: We tested the performance of `git log -- <path>` on the git repo, the linux and some internal large repos, with a variety of paths of varying depths. On the git and linux repos: - we observed a 2x to 5x speed up. On a large internal repo with files seated 6-10 levels deep in the tree: - we observed 10x to 20x speed ups, with some paths going up to 28 times faster.

2019-12-13notes: break set_display_notes() into smaller functionsLibravatar Denton Liu1-1/+1
In 8164c961e1 (format-patch: use --notes behavior for format.notes, 2019-12-09), we introduced set_display_notes() which was a monolithic function with three mutually exclusive branches. Break the function up into three small and simple functions that each are only responsible for one task. This family of functions accepts an `int *show_notes` instead of returning a value suitable for assignment to `show_notes`. This is for two reasons. First of all, this guarantees that the external `show_notes` variable changes in lockstep with the `struct display_notes_opt`. Second, this prompts future developers to be careful about doing something meaningful with this value. In fact, a NULL check is intentionally omitted because causing a segfault here would tell the future developer that they are meant to use the value for something meaningful. One alternative was making the family of functions accept a `struct rev_info *` instead of the `struct display_notes_opt *`, since the former contains the `show_notes` field as well. This does not work because we have to call git_config() before repo_init_revisions(). However, if we had a `struct rev_info`, we'd need to initialize it before it gets assigned values from git_config(). As a result, we break the circular dependency by having standalone `int show_notes` and `struct display_notes_opt notes_opt` variables which temporarily hold values from git_config() until the values are copied over to `rev`. To implement this change, we need to get a pointer to `rev_info::show_notes`. Unfortunately, this is not possible with bitfields and only direct-assignment is possible. Change `rev_info::show_notes` to a non-bitfield int so that we can get its address. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu <liu.denton@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-02-07log,diff-tree: add --combined-all-paths optionLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+1
The combined diff format for merges will only list one filename, even if rename or copy detection is active. For example, with raw format one might see: ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM describe.c ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM bar.sh ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR phooey.c This doesn't let us know what the original name of bar.sh was in the first parent, and doesn't let us know what either of the original names of phooey.c were in either of the parents. In contrast, for non-merge commits, raw format does provide original filenames (and a rename score to boot). In order to also provide original filenames for merge commits, add a --combined-all-paths option (which must be used with either -c or --cc, and is likely only useful with rename or copy detection active) so that we can print tab-separated filenames when renames are involved. This transforms the above output to: ::100644 100644 100644 fabadb8 cc95eb0 4866510 MM desc.c desc.c desc.c ::100755 100755 100755 52b7a2d 6d1ac04 d2ac7d7 RM foo.sh bar.sh bar.sh ::100644 100644 100644 e07d6c5 9042e82 ee91881 RR fooey.c fuey.c phooey.c Further, in patch format, this changes the from/to headers so that instead of just having one "from" header, we get one for each parent.

2019-01-17revision: add mark_tree_uninteresting_sparseLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+2
In preparation for a new algorithm that walks fewer trees when creating a pack from a set of revisions, create a method that takes an oidset of tree oids and marks reachable objects as UNINTERESTING. The current implementation uses the existing mark_tree_uninteresting to recursively walk the trees and blobs. This will walk the same number of trees as the old mechanism. To ensure that mark_tree_uninteresting walks the tree, we need to remove the UNINTERESTING flag before calling the method. This implementation will be replaced entirely in a later commit. There is one new assumption in this approach: we are also given the oids of the interesting trees. This implementation does not use those trees at the moment, but we will use them in a later rewrite of this method.

2018-11-02revision.c: generation-based topo-order algorithmLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+2
The current --topo-order algorithm requires walking all reachable commits up front, topo-sorting them, all before outputting the first value. This patch introduces a new algorithm which uses stored generation numbers to incrementally walk in topo-order, outputting commits as we go. This can dramatically reduce the computation time to write a fixed number of commits, such as when limiting with "-n <N>" or filling the first page of a pager. When running a command like 'git rev-list --topo-order HEAD', Git performed the following steps: 1. Run limit_list(), which parses all reachable commits, adds them to a linked list, and distributes UNINTERESTING flags. If all unprocessed commits are UNINTERESTING, then it may terminate without walking all reachable commits. This does not occur if we do not specify UNINTERESTING commits. 2. Run sort_in_topological_order(), which is an implementation of Kahn's algorithm. It first iterates through the entire set of important commits and computes the in-degree of each (plus one, as we use 'zero' as a special value here). Then, we walk the commits in priority order, adding them to the priority queue if and only if their in-degree is one. As we remove commits from this priority queue, we decrement the in-degree of their parents. 3. While we are peeling commits for output, get_revision_1() uses pop_commit on the full list of commits computed by sort_in_topological_order(). In the new algorithm, these three steps correspond to three different commit walks. We run these walks simultaneously, and advance each only as far as necessary to satisfy the requirements of the 'higher order' walk. We know when we can pause each walk by using generation numbers from the commit- graph feature. Recall that the generation number of a commit satisfies: * If the commit has at least one parent, then the generation number is one more than the maximum generation number among its parents. * If the commit has no parent, then the generation number is one. There are two special generation numbers: * GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY: this value is 0xffffffff and indicates that the commit is not stored in the commit-graph and the generation number was not previously calculated. * GENERATION_NUMBER_ZERO: this value (0) is a special indicator to say that the commit-graph was generated by a version of Git that does not compute generation numbers (such as v2.18.0). Since we use generation_numbers_enabled() before using the new algorithm, we do not need to worry about GENERATION_NUMBER_ZERO. However, the existence of GENERATION_NUMBER_INFINITY implies the following weaker statement than the usual we expect from generation numbers: If A and B are commits with generation numbers gen(A) and gen(B) and gen(A) < gen(B), then A cannot reach B. Thus, we will walk in each of our stages until the "maximum unexpanded generation number" is strictly lower than the generation number of a commit we are about to use. The walks are as follows: 1. EXPLORE: using the explore_queue priority queue (ordered by maximizing the generation number), parse each reachable commit until all commits in the queue have generation number strictly lower than needed. During this walk, update the UNINTERESTING flags as necessary. 2. INDEGREE: using the indegree_queue priority queue (ordered by maximizing the generation number), add one to the in- degree of each parent for each commit that is walked. Since we walk in order of decreasing generation number, we know that discovering an in-degree value of 0 means the value for that commit was not initialized, so should be initialized to two. (Recall that in-degree value "1" is what we use to say a commit is ready for output.) As we iterate the parents of a commit during this walk, ensure the EXPLORE walk has walked beyond their generation numbers. 3. TOPO: using the topo_queue priority queue (ordered based on the sort_order given, which could be commit-date, author- date, or typical topo-order which treats the queue as a LIFO stack), remove a commit from the queue and decrement the in-degree of each parent. If a parent has an in-degree of one, then we add it to the topo_queue. Before we decrement the in-degree, however, ensure the INDEGREE walk has walked beyond that generation number. The implementations of these walks are in the following methods: * explore_walk_step and explore_to_depth * indegree_walk_step and compute_indegrees_to_depth * next_topo_commit and expand_topo_walk These methods have some patterns that may seem strange at first, but they are probably carry-overs from their equivalents in limit_list and sort_in_topological_order. One thing that is missing from this implementation is a proper way to stop walking when the entire queue is UNINTERESTING, so this implementation is not enabled by comparisions, such as in 'git rev-list --topo-order A..B'. This can be updated in the future. In my local testing, I used the following Git commands on the Linux repository in three modes: HEAD~1 with no commit-graph, HEAD~1 with a commit-graph, and HEAD with a commit-graph. This allows comparing the benefits we get from parsing commits from the commit-graph and then again the benefits we get by restricting the set of commits we walk. Test: git rev-list --topo-order -100 HEAD HEAD~1, no commit-graph: 6.80 s HEAD~1, w/ commit-graph: 0.77 s HEAD, w/ commit-graph: 0.02 s Test: git rev-list --topo-order -100 HEAD -- tools HEAD~1, no commit-graph: 9.63 s HEAD~1, w/ commit-graph: 6.06 s HEAD, w/ commit-graph: 0.06 s This speedup is due to a few things. First, the new generation- number-enabled algorithm walks commits on order of the number of results output (subject to some branching structure expectations). Since we limit to 100 results, we are running a query similar to filling a single page of results. Second, when specifying a path, we must parse the root tree object for each commit we walk. The previous benefits from the commit-graph are entirely from reading the commit-graph instead of parsing commits. Since we need to parse trees for the same number of commits as before, we slow down significantly from the non-path-based query. For the test above, I specifically selected a path that is changed frequently, including by merge commits. A less-frequently-changed path (such as 'README') has similar end-to-end time since we need to walk the same number of commits (before determining we do not have 100 hits). However, get the benefit that the output is presented to the user as it is discovered, much the same as a normal 'git log' command (no '--topo-order'). This is an improved user experience, even if the command has the same runtime.

2018-11-02revision.c: begin refactoring --topo-order logicLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+4
When running 'git rev-list --topo-order' and its kin, the topo_order setting in struct rev_info implies the limited setting. This means that the following things happen during prepare_revision_walk(): * revs->limited implies we run limit_list() to walk the entire reachable set. There are some short-cuts here, such as if we perform a range query like 'git rev-list COMPARE..HEAD' and we can stop limit_list() when all queued commits are uninteresting. * revs->topo_order implies we run sort_in_topological_order(). See the implementation of that method in commit.c. It implies that the full set of commits to order is in the given commit_list. These two methods imply that a 'git rev-list --topo-order HEAD' command must walk the entire reachable set of commits _twice_ before returning a single result. If we have a commit-graph file with generation numbers computed, then there is a better way. This patch introduces some necessary logic redirection when we are in this situation. In v2.18.0, the commit-graph file contains zero-valued bytes in the positions where the generation number is stored in v2.19.0 and later. Thus, we use generation_numbers_enabled() to check if the commit-graph is available and has non-zero generation numbers. When setting revs->limited only because revs->topo_order is true, only do so if generation numbers are not available. There is no reason to use the new logic as it will behave similarly when all generation numbers are INFINITY or ZERO. In prepare_revision_walk(), if we have revs->topo_order but not revs->limited, then we trigger the new logic. It breaks the logic into three pieces, to fit with the existing framework: 1. init_topo_walk() fills a new struct topo_walk_info in the rev_info struct. We use the presence of this struct as a signal to use the new methods during our walk. In this patch, this method simply calls limit_list() and sort_in_topological_order(). In the future, this method will set up a new data structure to perform that logic in-line. 2. next_topo_commit() provides get_revision_1() with the next topo- ordered commit in the list. Currently, this simply pops the commit from revs->commits. 3. expand_topo_walk() provides get_revision_1() with a way to signal walking beyond the latest commit. Currently, this calls add_parents_to_list() exactly like the old logic. While this commit presents method redirection for performing the exact same logic as before, it allows the next commit to focus only on the new logic.

2018-10-23exclude-promisor-objects: declare when option is allowedLibravatar Matthew DeVore1-0/+1
The --exclude-promisor-objects option causes some funny behavior in at least two commands: log and blame. It causes a BUG crash: $ git log --exclude-promisor-objects BUG: revision.c:2143: exclude_promisor_objects can only be used when fetch_if_missing is 0 Aborted [134] Fix this such that the option is treated like any other unknown option. The commands that must support it are limited, so declare in those commands that the flag is supported. In particular: pack-objects prune rev-list The commands were found by searching for logic which parses --exclude-promisor-objects outside of revision.c. Extra logic outside of revision.c is needed because fetch_if_missing must be turned on before revision.c sees the option or it will BUG-crash. The above list is supported by the fact that no other command is introspectively invoked by another command passing --exclude-promisor-object.

2018-10-07revision: mark non-user-given objects insteadLibravatar Matthew DeVore1-2/+9
Currently, list-objects.c incorrectly treats all root trees of commits as USER_GIVEN. Also, it would be easier to mark objects that are non-user-given instead of user-given, since the places in the code where we access an object through a reference are more obvious than the places where we access an object that was given by the user. Resolve these two problems by introducing a flag NOT_USER_GIVEN that marks blobs and trees that are non-user-given, replacing USER_GIVEN. (Only blobs and trees are marked because this mark is only used when filtering objects, and filtering of other types of objects is not supported yet.) This fixes a bug in that git rev-list behaved differently from git pack-objects. pack-objects would *not* filter objects given explicitly on the command line and rev-list would filter. This was because the two commands used a different function to add objects to the rev_info struct. This seems to have been an oversight, and pack-objects has the correct behavior, so I added a test to make sure that rev-list now behaves properly.

2018-09-17Merge branch 'jk/rev-list-stdin-noop-is-ok'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
"git rev-list --stdin </dev/null" used to be an error; it now shows no output without an error. "git rev-list --stdin --default HEAD" still falls back to the given default when nothing is given on the standard input. * jk/rev-list-stdin-noop-is-ok: rev-list: make empty --stdin not an error
2018-08-22rev-list: make empty --stdin not an errorLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+5
When we originally did the series that contains 7ba826290a (revision: add rev_input_given flag, 2017-08-02) the intent was that "git rev-list --stdin </dev/null" would similarly become a successful noop. However, an attempt at the time to do that did not work[1]. The problem is that rev_input_given serves two roles: - it tells rev-list.c that it should not error out - it tells revision.c that it should not have the "default" ref kick (e.g., "HEAD" in "git log") We want to trigger the former, but not the latter. This is technically possible with a single flag, if we set the flag only after revision.c's revs->def check. But this introduces a rather subtle ordering dependency. Instead, let's keep two flags: one to denote when we got actual input (which triggers both roles) and one for when we read stdin (which triggers only the first). This does mean a caller interested in the first role has to check both flags, but there's only one such caller. And any future callers might want to make the distinction anyway (e.g., if they care less about erroring out, and more about whether revision.c soaked up our stdin). In fact, we already keep such a flag internally in revision.c for this purpose, so this is really just exposing that to the caller (and the old function-local flag can go away in favor of our new one).

When submitting a revised version of a patch series, it can be helpful (to reviewers) to include a summary of changes since the previous attempt in the form of a range-diff, however, doing so involves manually copy/pasting the diff into the cover letter.

For example: git format-patch --cover-letter --range-diff=v1 -3 v2 (At this stage, the previous attempt and the patch series being formatted must share a common base, however, a subsequent enhancement will make it possible to specify an explicit revision range for the previous attempt.)

2018-07-09upload-pack: send refs' objects despite "filter"Libravatar Jonathan Tan1-1/+2
A filter line in a request to upload-pack filters out objects regardless of whether they are directly referenced by a "want" line or not. This means that cloning with "--filter=blob:none" (or another filter that excludes blobs) from a repository with at least one ref pointing to a blob (for example, the Git repository itself) results in output like the following: error: missing object referenced by 'refs/tags/junio-gpg-pub' and if that particular blob is not referenced by a fetched tree, the resulting clone fails fsck because there is no object from the remote to vouch that the missing object is a promisor object. Update both the protocol and the upload-pack implementation to include all explicitly specified "want" objects in the packfile regardless of the filter specification.

This was an undocumented debugging aid that does not seem to have come in handy in the past decade, judging from its lack of mentions on the mailing list. Let's drop it in the name of simplicity. This is morally a revert of 3131b71301 (Add "--show-all" revision walker flag for debugging, 2008-02-09), but note that I did leave in the mapping of UNINTERESTING to "^" in get_revision_mark(). I don't think this would be possible to trigger with the current code, but it's the only sensible marker. We'll skip the usual deprecation period because this was explicitly a debugging aid that was never documented.
