"git log --graph --graph" used to leak a graph structure, and there
was no way to countermand "--graph" that appear earlier on the

leakage has been plugged.

The --remerge-diff option will need to create new blobs and trees
representing the "automatic merge" state. If one is traversing a
long project history, one can easily get hundreds of thousands of
loose objects generated during `log --remerge-diff`. However, none of
those loose objects are needed after we have completed our diff
operation; they can be summarily deleted.
Add a new helper function to tmp_objdir to discard all the contained
objects, and call it after each merge is handled.

When this option is specified, we remerge all (two parent) merge commits
and diff the actual merge commit to the automatically created version,
in order to show how users removed conflict markers, resolved the
different conflict versions, and potentially added new changes outside
of conflict regions in order to resolve semantic merge problems (or,
possibly, just to hide other random changes).
This capability works by creating a temporary object directory and
marking it as the primary object store. This makes it so that any blobs
or trees created during the automatic merge are easily removable
afterwards by just deleting all objects from the temporary object
directory.
There are a few ways that this implementation is suboptimal:
* `log --remerge-diff` becomes slow, because the temporary object
directory can fill with many loose objects while running
* the log output can be muddied with misplaced "warning: cannot merge
binary files" messages, since ll-merge.c unconditionally writes those
messages to stderr while running instead of allowing callers to
manage them.
* important conflict and warning messages are simply dropped; thus for
conflicts like modify/delete or rename/rename or file/directory which
are not representable with content conflict markers, there may be no
way for a user of --remerge-diff to know that there had been a
conflict which was resolved (and which possibly motivated other
changes in the merge commit).
* when fixing the previous issue, note that some unimportant conflict
and warning messages might start being included. We should instead
make sure these remain dropped.
Subsequent commits will address these issues.

It is useful to know when a branch first diverged in history
from some integration branch in order to be able to enumerate
the user's local changes. However, these local changes can
include arbitrary merges, so it is necessary to ignore this
merge structure when finding the divergence point.
In order to do this, teach the "rev-list" family to accept
"--exclude-first-parent-only", which restricts the traversal
of excluded commits to only follow first parent links.
-A-----E-F-G--main
\ / /
B-C-D--topic
In this example, the goal is to return the set {B, C, D} which
represents a topic branch that has been merged into main branch.
`git rev-list topic ^main` will end up returning no commits
since excluding main will end up traversing the commits on topic
as well. `git rev-list --exclude-first-parent-only topic ^main`
however will return {B, C, D} as desired.
Add docs for the new flag, and clarify the doc for --first-parent
to indicate that it applies to traversing the set of included
commits only.

The option --invert-grep is documented to filter out commits whose
messages match the --grep filters. However, it also affects the
header matches (--author, --committer), which is not intended.
Move the handling of that option to grep.c, as only the code there can
distinguish between matches in the header from those in the message
body. If --invert-grep is given then enable extended expressions (not
the regex type, we just need git grep's --not to work), negate the body
patterns and check if any of them match by piggy-backing on the
collect_hits mechanism of grep_source_1().
Collecting the matches in struct grep_opt is a bit iffy, but with
"last_shown" we have a precedent for writing state information to that
struct.

More code paths that use the hack to add submodule's object
database to the set of alternate object store have been cleaned up.

revision: remove "submodule" from opt struct
repository: support unabsorbed in repo_submodule_init
submodule: remove unnecessary unabsorbed fallback
|

Clean up a TODO in revision.h by removing the "submodule" field from
struct setup_revision_opt. This field is only used to specify the ref
store to use, so use rev_info->repo to determine the ref store instead.
The only users of this field are merge-ort.c and merge-recursive.c.
However, both these files specify the superproject as rev_info->repo and
the submodule as setup_revision_opt->submodule. In order to be able to
pass the submodule as rev_info->repo, all commits must be parsed with
the submodule explicitly specified; this patch does that as well. (An
incremental solution in which only some commits are parsed with explicit
submodule will not work, because if the same commit is parsed twice in
different repositories, there will be 2 heap-allocated object structs
corresponding to that commit, and any flag set by the revision walking
mechanism on one of them will not be reflected onto the other.)

The `--no-walk` flag supports two modes: either it sorts the revisions
given as input input or it doesn't. This is reflected in a single
`no_walk` flag, which reflects one of the three states "walk", "don't
walk but without sorting" and "don't walk but with sorting".
Split up the flag into two separate bits, one indicating whether we
should walk or not and one indicating whether the input should be sorted
or not. This will allow us to more easily introduce a new flag
`--unsorted-input`, which only impacts the sorting bit.

"git rev-list" learns to omit the "commit <object-name>" header
lines from the output with the `--no-commit-header` option.
* bc/rev-list-without-commit-line:
rev-list: add option for --pretty=format without header
|
|
In general, we encourage users to use plumbing commands, like git
rev-list, over porcelain commands, like git log, when scripting.
However, git rev-list has one glaring problem that prevents it from
being used in certain cases: when --pretty is used with a custom format,
it always prints out a line containing "commit" and the object ID. This
makes it unsuitable for many scripting needs, and forces users to use
git log instead.
While we can't change this behavior for backwards compatibility, we can
add an option to suppress this behavior, so let's do so, and call it
"--no-commit-header". Additionally, add the corresponding positive
option to switch it back on.
Note that this option doesn't affect the built-in formats, only custom
formats. This is exactly the same behavior as users already have from
git log and is what most users will be used to.

Avoid duplicated work while building reachability bitmaps.
* jk/bitmap-tree-optim:
bitmaps: don't recurse into trees already in the bitmap
|
|
If an object is already mentioned in a reachability bitmap we are
building, then by definition so are all of the objects it can reach. We
have an optimization to stop traversing commits when we see they are
already in the bitmap, but we don't do the same for trees.
It's generally unavoidable to recurse into trees for commits not yet
covered by bitmaps (since most commits generally do have unique
top-level trees). But they usually have subtrees that are shared with
other commits (i.e., all of the subtrees the commit _didn't_ touch). And
some of those commits (and their trees) may be covered by the bitmap.
Usually this isn't _too_ big a deal, because we'll visit those subtrees
only once in total for the whole walk. But if you have a large number of
unbitmapped commits, and if your tree is big, then you may end up
opening a lot of sub-trees for no good reason.
We can use the same optimization we do for commits here: when we are
about to open a tree, see if it's in the bitmap (either the one we are
building, or the "seen" bitmap which covers the UNINTERESTING side of
the bitmap when doing a set-difference).
This works especially well because we'll visit all commits before
hitting any trees. So even in a history like:
A -- B
if "A" has a bitmap on disk but "B" doesn't, we'll already have OR-ed in
the results from A before looking at B's tree (so we really will only
look at trees touched by B).
For most repositories, the timings produced by p5310 are unspectacular.
Here's linux.git:
Test HEAD^ HEAD
--------------------------------------------------------------------
5310.4: simulated clone 6.00(5.90+0.10) 5.98(5.90+0.08) -0.3%
5310.5: simulated fetch 2.98(5.45+0.18) 2.85(5.31+0.18) -4.4%
5310.7: rev-list (commits) 0.32(0.29+0.03) 0.33(0.30+0.03) +3.1%
5310.8: rev-list (objects) 1.48(1.44+0.03) 1.49(1.44+0.05) +0.7%
Any improvement there is within the noise (the +3.1% on test 7 has to be
noise, since we are not recursing into trees, and thus the new code
isn't even run). The results for git.git are likewise uninteresting.
But here are numbers from some other real-world repositories (that are
not public). This one's tree is comparable in size to linux.git, but has
~16k refs (and so less complete bitmap coverage):
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
5310.4: simulated clone 38.34(39.86+0.74) 33.95(35.53+0.76) -11.5%
5310.5: simulated fetch 2.29(6.31+0.35) 2.20(5.97+0.41) -3.9%
5310.7: rev-list (commits) 0.99(0.86+0.13) 0.96(0.85+0.11) -3.0%
5310.8: rev-list (objects) 11.32(11.04+0.27) 6.59(6.37+0.21) -41.8%
And here's another with a very large tree (~340k entries), and a fairly
large number of refs (~10k):
Test HEAD^ HEAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
5310.3: simulated clone 53.83(54.71+1.54) 39.77(40.76+1.50) -26.1%
5310.4: simulated fetch 19.91(20.11+0.56) 19.79(19.98+0.67) -0.6%
5310.6: rev-list (commits) 0.54(0.44+0.11) 0.51(0.43+0.07) -5.6%
5310.7: rev-list (objects) 24.32(23.59+0.73) 9.85(9.49+0.36) -59.5%
This patch provides substantial improvements in these larger cases, and
have any drawbacks for smaller ones (the cost of the bitmap check is
quite small compared to an actual tree traversal).
Note that we have to add a version of revision.c's include_check
callback which handles non-commits. We could possibly consolidate this
into a single callback for all objects types, as there's only one user
of the feature which would need converted (pack-bitmap.c:should_include).
That would in theory let us avoid duplicating any logic. But when I
tried it, the code ended up much worse to read, with lots of repeated
"if it's a commit do this, otherwise do that". Having two separate
callbacks splits that naturally, and matches the existing split of
show_commit/show_object callbacks.

The NOT_USER_GIVEN flag of an object marks whether a flag was explicitly
provided by the user or not. The most important use case for this is
when filtering objects: only objects that were not explicitly requested
will get filtered.
The flag is currently only set for blobs and trees, which has been fine
given that there are no filters for tags or commits currently. We're
about to extend filtering capabilities to add object type filter though,
which requires us to set up the NOT_USER_GIVEN flag correctly -- if it's
not set, the object wouldn't get filtered at all.
Mark unseen commit parents as NOT_USER_GIVEN when processing parents.
Like this, explicitly provided parents stay user-given and thus
unfiltered, while parents which get loaded as part of the graph walk
can be filtered.
This commit shouldn't have any user-visible impact yet as there is no
logic to filter commits yet.

"git format-patch -v<n>" learned to allow a reroll count that is
not an integer.
* zh/format-patch-fractional-reroll-count:
format-patch: allow a non-integral version numbers
|
|
The `-v<n>` option of `format-patch` can give nothing but an
integral iteration number to patches in a series. Some people,
however, prefer to mark a new iteration with only a small fixup
with a non integral iteration number (e.g. an "oops, that was
wrong" fix-up patch for v4 iteration may be labeled as "v4.1").
Allow `format-patch` to take such a non-integral iteration
number.
`<n>` can be any string, such as '3.1' or '4rev2'. In the case
where it is a non-integral value, the "Range-diff" and "Interdiff"
headers will not include the previous version.

A future caller will want to be able to perform a reachability traversal
which terminates when visiting an object found in a kept pack. The
closest existing option is '--honor-pack-keep', but this isn't quite
what we want. Instead of halting the traversal midway through, a full
traversal is always performed, and the results are only trimmed
afterwords.
Besides needing to introduce a new flag (since culling results
post-facto can be different than halting the traversal as it's
happening), there is an additional wrinkle handling the distinction
in-core and on-disk kept packs. That is: what kinds of kept pack should
stop the traversal?
Introduce '--no-kept-objects[=<on-disk|in-core>]' to specify which kinds
of kept packs, if any, should stop a traversal. This can be useful for
callers that want to perform a reachability analysis, but want to leave
certain packs alone (for e.g., when doing a geometric repack that has
some "large" packs which are kept in-core that it wants to leave alone).
Note that this option is not guaranteed to produce exactly the set of
objects that aren't in kept packs, since it's possible the traversal
order may end up in a situation where a non-kept ancestor was "cut off"
by a kept object (at which point we would stop traversing). But, we
don't care about absolute correctness here, since this will eventually
be used as a purely additive guide in an upcoming new repack mode.
Explicitly avoid documenting this new flag, since it is only used
internally. In theory we could avoid even adding it rev-list, but being
able to spell this option out on the command-line makes some special
cases easier to test without promising to keep it behaving consistently
forever. Those tricky cases are exercised in t6114.

For the past 15 years, we've used the hardcoded 64 as the length
limit of the filename of the output from the "git format-patch"
command. Since the value is shorter than the 80-column terminal, it
could grow without line wrapping a bit. At the same time, since the

two or more of them in "ls" output on such a terminal if we allowed

Introduce a new command line option --filename-max-length=<n> and a
new configuration variable format.filenameMaxLength to override the
hardcoded default.
While we are at it, remove a check that the name of output directory
does not exceed PATH_MAX---this check is pointless in that by the
time control reaches the function, the caller would already have
done an equivalent of "mkdir -p", so if the system does not like an
overly long directory name, the control wouldn't have reached here,
and otherwise, we know that the system allowed the output directory
to exist. In the worst case, we will get an error when we try to
open the output file and handle the error correctly anyway.

The "-m" option sets revs->ignore_merges to "0", but there's no way to
undo it. This probably isn't something anybody overly cares about, since
"1" is already the default, but it will serve as an escape hatch when we
flip the default for ignore_merges to "0" in more situations.
We'll also add a few extra niceties:
- initialize the value to "-1" to indicate "not set", and then resolve
it to the normal 0/1 bool in setup_revisions(). This lets any tweak
functions, as well as setup_revisions() itself, avoid clobbering the
user's preference (which until now they couldn't actually express).
- since we now have --no-diff-merges, let's add the matching
--diff-merges, which is just a synonym for "-m". Then we don't even
need to document --no-diff-merges separately; it countermands the
long form of "-m" in the usual way.
The new test shows that this behaves just the same as the current
behavior without "-m".

The file 'dir/subdir/file' can only be modified if its leading
directories 'dir' and 'dir/subdir' are modified as well.
So when checking modified path Bloom filters looking for commits
modifying a path with multiple path components, then check not only
the full path in the Bloom filters, but all its leading directories as
well. Take care to check these paths in "deepest first" order,
because it's the full path that is least likely to be modified, and
the Bloom filter queries can short circuit sooner.
This can significantly reduce the average false positive rate, by
about an order of magnitude or three(!), and can further speed up
pathspec-limited revision walks. The table below compares the average
false positive rate and runtime of
git rev-list HEAD -- "$path"

*Path selection was done with the following pipeline:

The improvements in runtime are much smaller than the improvements in
average false positive rate, as we are clearly reaching diminishing
returns here. However, all these timings depend on that accessing
tree objects is reasonably fast (warm caches). If we had a partial
clone and the tree objects had to be fetched from a promisor remote,
e.g.:
$ git clone --filter=tree:0 --bare file://.../webkit.git webkit.notrees.git
$ git -C webkit.git -c core.modifiedPathBloomFilters=1 \
commit-graph write --reachable
$ cp webkit.git/objects/info/commit-graph webkit.notrees.git/objects/info/
$ git -C webkit.notrees.git -c core.modifiedPathBloomFilters=1 \
rev-list HEAD -- "$path"
then checking all leading path component can reduce the runtime from
over an hour to a few seconds (and this is with the clone and the
promisor on the same machine).
This adjusts the tracing values in t4216-log-bloom.sh, which provides a
concrete way to notice the improvement.

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.

"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
|
|
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.
Add --[no-]encode-email-headers and format.encodeEmailHeaders to let the
user control this behavior.

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.

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.

information beside the code instead of looking for it in another doc file.

Output from "diff --cc" did not show the original paths when the

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.
For example, instead of having
--- a/phooey.c
+++ b/phooey.c
we would see
--- a/fooey.c
--- a/fuey.c
+++ b/phooey.c

"git pack-objects" learned another algorithm to compute the set of
objects to send, that trades the resulting packfile off to save
traversal cost to favor small pushes.
* ds/push-sparse-tree-walk:
pack-objects: create GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE
pack-objects: create pack.useSparse setting
revision: implement sparse algorithm
list-objects: consume sparse tree walk
revision: add mark_tree_uninteresting_sparse
|
|
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.
