2020-04-11rebase --merge: optionally skip upstreamed commitsLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-1/+2
When rebasing against an upstream that has had many commits since the original branch was created: O -- O -- ... -- O -- O (upstream) \ -- O (my-dev-branch) it must read the contents of every novel upstream commit, in addition to the tip of the upstream and the merge base, because "git rebase" attempts to exclude commits that are duplicates of upstream ones. This can be a significant performance hit, especially in a partial clone, wherein a read of an object may end up being a fetch. Add a flag to "git rebase" to allow suppression of this feature. This flag only works when using the "merge" backend. This flag changes the behavior of sequencer_make_script(), called from do_interactive_rebase() <- run_rebase_interactive() <- run_specific_rebase() <- cmd_rebase(). With this flag, limit_list() (indirectly called from sequencer_make_script() through prepare_revision_walk()) will no longer call cherry_pick_list(), and thus PATCHSAME is no longer set. Refraining from setting PATCHSAME both means that the intermediate commits in upstream are no longer read (as shown by the test) and means that no PATCHSAME-caused skipping of commits is done by sequencer_make_script(), either directly or through make_script_with_merges().

2020-04-11rebase: reinstate --no-keep-emptyLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+6
Commit d48e5e21da ("rebase (interactive-backend): make --keep-empty the default", 2020-02-15) turned --keep-empty (for keeping commits which start empty) into the default. The logic underpinning that commit was: 1) 'git commit' errors out on the creation of empty commits without an override flag 2) Once someone determines that the override is worthwhile, it's annoying and/or harmful to required them to take extra steps in order to keep such commits around (and to repeat such steps with every rebase). While the logic on which the decision was made is sound, the result was a bit of an overcorrection. Instead of jumping to having --keep-empty being the default, it jumped to making --keep-empty the only available behavior. There was a simple workaround, though, which was thought to be good enough at the time. People could still drop commits which started empty the same way the could drop any commits: by firing up an interactive rebase and picking out the commits they didn't want from the list. However, there are cases where external tools might create enough empty commits that picking all of them out is painful. As such, having a flag to automatically remove start-empty commits may be beneficial. Provide users a way to drop commits which start empty using a flag that existed for years: --no-keep-empty. Interpret --keep-empty as countermanding any previous --no-keep-empty, but otherwise leaving --keep-empty as the default. This might lead to some slight weirdness since commands like git rebase --empty=drop --keep-empty git rebase --empty=keep --no-keep-empty look really weird despite making perfect sense (the first will drop commits which become empty, but keep commits that started empty; the second will keep commits which become empty, but drop commits which started empty). However, --no-keep-empty was named years ago and we are predominantly keeping it for backward compatibility; also we suspect it will only be used rarely since folks already have a simple way to drop commits they don't want with an interactive rebase.

2020-04-11rebase -i: mark commits that begin empty in todo editorLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+5
While many users who intentionally create empty commits do not want them thrown away by a rebase, there are third-party tools that generate empty commits that a user might not want. In the past, users have used rebase to get rid of such commits (a side-effect of the fact that the --apply backend is not currently capable of keeping them). While such users could fire up an interactive rebase and just remove the lines corresponding to empty commits, that might be difficult if the third-party tool generates many of them. Simplify this task for users by marking such lines with a suffix of " # empty" in the todo list.

2020-03-11sequencer: clear state upon dropping a become-empty commitLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+2
In commit e98c4269c8 ("rebase (interactive-backend): fix handling of commits that become empty", 2020-02-15), the merge backend was changed to drop commits that did not start empty but became so after being applied (because their changes were a subset of what was already upstream). This new code path did not need to go through the process of creating a commit, since we were dropping the commit instead. Unfortunately, this also means we bypassed the clearing of the CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and MERGE_MSG files, which if there were no further commits to cherry-pick would mean that the rebase would end but assume there was still an operation in progress.

2020-02-24commit: use expected signature header for SHA-256Libravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+1
The transition plan anticipates that we will allow signatures using multiple algorithms in a single commit. In order to do so, we need to use a different header per algorithm so that it will be obvious over which data to compute the signature. The transition plan specifies that we should use "gpgsig-sha256", so wire up the commit code such that it can write and parse the current algorithm, and it can remove the headers for any algorithm when creating a new commit. Add tests to ensure that we write using the right header and that git fsck doesn't reject these commits.

These all share the same code and write the same reflog messages, but the "-i" moniker in those messages doesn't really have much meaning.

2020-02-16rebase, sequencer: remove the broken GIT_QUIET handlingLibravatar Elijah Newren1-4/+2

The preserve-merges backend does not make use of the quiet flag anywhere (other than to write out its state whenever it writes state), and this mechanism was broken in the conversion from shell to C. Since this environment variable was specifically designed for scripts and the only backend that would still use it is no longer a script, just gut this code. A subsequent commit will fix --quiet for the interactive/merge backend in a different way. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-02-16rebase (interactive-backend): fix handling of commits that become emptyLibravatar Elijah Newren1-11/+39
As established in the previous commit and commit b00bf1c9a8dd (git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default, 2018-06-27), the behavior for rebase with different backends in various edge or corner cases is often more happenstance than design. This commit addresses another such corner case: commits which "become empty". A careful reader may note that there are two types of commits which would become empty due to a rebase: * [clean cherry-pick] Commits which are clean cherry-picks of upstream commits, as determined by `git log --cherry-mark ...`. Re-applying these commits would result in an empty set of changes and a duplicative commit message; i.e. these are commits that have "already been applied" upstream. * [become empty] Commits which are not empty to start, are not clean cherry-picks of upstream commits, but which still become empty after being rebased. This happens e.g. when a commit has changes which are a strict subset of the changes in an upstream commit, or when the changes of a commit can be found spread across or among several upstream commits. Clearly, in both cases the changes in the commit in question are found upstream already, but the commit message may not be in the latter case. When cherry-mark can determine a commit is already upstream, then because of how cherry-mark works this means the upstream commit message was about the *exact* same set of changes. Thus, the commit messages can be assumed to be fully interchangeable (and are in fact likely to be completely identical). As such, the clean cherry-pick case represents a case when there is no information to be gained by keeping the extra commit around. All rebase types have always dropped these commits, and no one to my knowledge has ever requested that we do otherwise. For many of the become empty cases (and likely even most), we will also be able to drop the commit without loss of information -- but this isn't quite always the case. Since these commits represent cases that were not clean cherry-picks, there is no upstream commit message explaining the same set of changes. Projects with good commit message hygiene will likely have the explanation from our commit message contained within or spread among the relevant upstream commits, but not all projects run that way. As such, the commit message of the commit being rebased may have reasoning that suggests additional changes that should be made to adapt to the new base, or it may have information that someone wants to add as a note to another commit, or perhaps someone even wants to create an empty commit with the commit message as-is. Junio commented on the "become-empty" types of commits as follows[1]: WRT a change that ends up being empty (as opposed to a change that is empty from the beginning), I'd think that the current behaviour is desireable one. "am" based rebase is solely to transplant an existing history and want to stop much less than "interactive" one whose purpose is to polish a series before making it publishable, and asking for confirmation ("this has become empty--do you want to drop it?") is more appropriate from the workflow point of view. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqfu1fswdh.fsf@gitster-ct.c.googlers.com/ I would simply add that his arguments for "am"-based rebases actually apply to all non-explicitly-interactive rebases. Also, since we are stating that different cases should have different defaults, it may be worth providing a flag to allow users to select which behavior they want for these commits. Introduce a new command line flag for selecting the desired behavior: --empty={drop,keep,ask} with the definitions: drop: drop commits which become empty keep: keep commits which become empty ask: provide the user a chance to interact and pick what to do with commits which become empty on a case-by-case basis In line with Junio's suggestion, if the --empty flag is not specified, pick defaults as follows: explicitly interactive: ask otherwise: drop Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-02-16rebase (interactive-backend): make --keep-empty the defaultLibravatar Elijah Newren1-13/+7
Different rebase backends have different treatment for commits which start empty (i.e. have no changes relative to their parent), and the --keep-empty option was added at some point to allow adjusting behavior. The handling of commits which start empty is actually quite similar to commit b00bf1c9a8dd (git-rebase: make --allow-empty-message the default, 2018-06-27), which pointed out that the behavior for various backends is often more happenstance than design. The specific change made in that commit is actually quite relevant as well and much of the logic there directly applies here. It makes a lot of sense in 'git commit' to error out on the creation of empty commits, unless an override flag is provided. However, once someone determines that there is a rare case that merits using the manual override to create such a commit, it is somewhere between annoying and harmful to have to take extra steps to keep such intentional commits around. Granted, empty commits are quite rare, which is why handling of them doesn't get considered much and folks tend to defer to existing (accidental) behavior and assume there was a reason for it, leading them to just add flags (--keep-empty in this case) that allow them to override the bad defaults. Fix the interactive backend so that --keep-empty is the default, much like we did with --allow-empty-message. The am backend should also be fixed to have --keep-empty semantics for commits that start empty, but that is not included in this patch other than a testcase documenting the failure. Note that there was one test in t3421 which appears to have been written expecting --keep-empty to not be the default as correct behavior. This test was introduced in commit 00b8be5a4d38 ("add tests for rebasing of empty commits", 2013-06-06), which was part of a series focusing on rebase topology and which had an interesting original cover letter at https://lore.kernel.org/git/1347949878-12578-1-git-send-email-martinvonz@gmail.com/ which noted Your input especially appreciated on whether you agree with the intent of the test cases. and then went into a long example about how one of the many tests added had several questions about whether it was correct. As such, I believe most the tests in that series were about testing rebase topology with as many different flags as possible and were not trying to state in general how those flags should behave otherwise.

2020-01-28avoid computing zero offsets from NULL pointerLibravatar Jeff King1-3/+3
The Undefined Behavior Sanitizer in clang-11 seems to have learned a new trick: it complains about computing offsets from a NULL pointer, even if that offset is 0. This causes numerous test failures. For example, from t1090: unpack-trees.c:1355:41: runtime error: applying zero offset to null pointer ... not ok 6 - in partial clone, sparse checkout only fetches needed blobs The code in question looks like this: struct cache_entry **cache_end = cache + nr; ... while (cache != cache_end) and we sometimes pass in a NULL and 0 for "cache" and "nr". This is conceptually fine, as "cache_end" would be equal to "cache" in this case, and we wouldn't enter the loop at all. But computing even a zero offset violates the C standard. And given the fact that UBSan is noticing this behavior, this might be a potential problem spot if the compiler starts making unexpected assumptions based on undefined behavior. So let's just avoid it, which is pretty easy. In some cases we can just switch to iterating with a numeric index (as we do in sequencer.c here). In other cases (like the cache_end one) the use of an end pointer is more natural; we can keep that by just explicitly checking for the NULL/0 case when assigning the end pointer. Note that there are two ways you can write this latter case, checking for the pointer: cache_end = cache ? cache + nr : cache; or the size: cache_end = nr ? cache + nr : cache; For the case of a NULL/0 ptr/len combo, they are equivalent. But writing it the second way (as this patch does) has the property that if somebody were to incorrectly pass a NULL pointer with a non-zero length, we'd continue to notice and segfault, rather than silently pretending the length was zero.

2020-01-28rebase-interactive: warn if commit is dropped with `rebase --edit-todo'Libravatar Alban Gruin1-11/+11
When set to "warn" or "error", `rebase.missingCommitsCheck' would make `rebase -i' warn if the user removed commits from the todo list to prevent mistakes. Unfortunately, `rebase --edit-todo' and `rebase --continue' don't take it into account. This adds the ability for `rebase --edit-todo' and `rebase --continue' to check if commits were dropped by the user. As both edit_todo_list() and complete_action() parse the todo list and check for dropped commits, the code doing so in the latter is removed to reduce duplication. `edit_todo_list_advice' is removed from sequencer.c as it is no longer used there. This changes when a backup of the todo list is made. Until now, it was saved only once, before the initial edit. Now, it is also made if the original todo list has no errors or no dropped commits. Thus, the backup should be error-free. Without this, sequencer_continue() (`rebase --continue') could only compare the current todo list against the original, unedited list. Before this change, this file was only used by edit_todo_list() and `rebase -p' to create the backup before the initial edit, and check_todo_list_from_file(), only used by `rebase -p' to check for dropped commits after its own initial edit. If the edited list has an error, a file, `dropped', is created to report the issue. Otherwise, it is deleted. Usually, the edited list is compared against the list before editing, but if this file exists, it will be compared to the backup. Also, if the file exists, sequencer_continue() checks the list for dropped commits. If the check was performed every time, it would fail when resuming a rebase after resolving a conflict, as the backup will contain commits that were picked, but they will not be in the new list. It's safe to ignore this check if `dropped' does not exist, because that means that no errors were found at the last edition, so any missing commits here have already been picked. Five tests are added to t3404. The tests for `rebase.missingCommitsCheck = warn' and `rebase.missingCommitsCheck = error' have a similar structure. First, we start a rebase with an incorrect command on the first line. Then, we edit the todo list, removing the first and the last lines. This demonstrates that `--edit-todo' notices dropped commits, but not when the command is incorrect. Then, we restore the original todo list, and edit it to remove the last line. This demonstrates that if we add a commit after the initial edit, then remove it, `--edit-todo' will notice that it has been dropped. Then, the actual rebase takes place. In the third test, it is also checked that `--continue' will refuse to resume the rebase if commits were dropped. The fourth test checks that no errors are raised when resuming a rebase after resolving a conflict, the fifth checks that no errors are raised when editing the todo list after pausing the rebase.

2020-01-28sequencer: move check_todo_list_from_file() to rebase-interactive.cLibravatar Alban Gruin1-29/+0
The message contained in `edit_todo_list_advice' (sequencer.c) is printed after the initial edit of the todo list if it can't be parsed or if commits were dropped. This is done either in complete_action() for `rebase -i', or in check_todo_list_from_file() for `rebase -p'. Since we want to add this check when editing the list, we also want to use this message from edit_todo_list() (rebase-interactive.c). To this end, check_todo_list_from_file() is moved to rebase-interactive.c, and `edit_todo_list_advice' is copied there.

2020-01-24rebase -i: stop checking out the tip of the branch to rebaseLibravatar Alban Gruin1-14/+0
One of the first things done when using a sequencer-based rebase (ie. `rebase -i', `rebase -r', or `rebase -m') is to make a todo list. This requires knowledge of the commit range to rebase. To get the oid of the last commit of the range, the tip of the branch to rebase is checked out with prepare_branch_to_be_rebased(), then the oid of the head is read. After this, the tip of the branch is not even modified. The `am' backend, on the other hand, does not check out the branch. On big repositories, it's a performance penalty: with `rebase -i', the user may have to wait before editing the todo list while git is extracting the branch silently, and "quiet" rebases will be slower than `am'. Since we already have the oid of the tip of the branch in `opts->orig_head', it's useless to switch to this commit. This removes the call to prepare_branch_to_be_rebased() in do_interactive_rebase(), and adds a `orig_head' parameter to get_revision_ranges(). prepare_branch_to_be_rebased() is removed as it is no longer used. This introduces a visible change: as we do not switch on the tip of the branch to rebase, no reflog entry is created at the beginning of the rebase for it. Unscientific performance measurements, performed on linux.git, are as follow: Before this patch: $ time git rebase -m --onto v4.18 463fa44eec2fef50~ 463fa44eec2fef50 real 0m8,940s user 0m6,830s sys 0m2,121s After this patch: $ time git rebase -m --onto v4.18 463fa44eec2fef50~ 463fa44eec2fef50 real 0m1,834s user 0m0,916s sys 0m0,206s Reported-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alban Gruin <alban.gruin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-01-23rebase -i: re-fix short SHA-1 collisionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-1/+10
In 66ae9a57b88 (t3404: rebase -i: demonstrate short SHA-1 collision, 2013-08-23), we added a test case that demonstrated how it is possible that a previously unambiguous short commit ID could become ambiguous *during* a rebase. In 75c69766554 (rebase -i: fix short SHA-1 collision, 2013-08-23), we fixed that problem simply by writing out the todo list with expanded commit IDs (except *right* before letting the user edit the todo list, in which case we shorten them, but we expand them right after the file was edited). However, the bug resurfaced as a side effect of 393adf7a6f6 (sequencer: directly call pick_commits() from complete_action(), 2019-11-24): as of this commit, the sequencer no longer re-reads the todo list after writing it out with expanded commit IDs. The only redeeming factor is that the todo list is already parsed at that stage, including all the commits corresponding to the commands, therefore the sequencer can continue even if the internal todo list has short commit IDs. That does not prevent problems, though: the sequencer writes out the `done` and `git-rebase-todo` files incrementally (i.e. overwriting the todo list with a version that has _short_ commit IDs), and if a merge conflict happens, or if an `edit` or a `break` command is encountered, a subsequent `git rebase --continue` _will_ re-read the todo list, opening an opportunity for the "short SHA-1 collision" bug again. To avoid that, let's make sure that we do expand the commit IDs in the todo list as soon as we have parsed it after letting the user edit it. Additionally, we improve the 'short SHA-1 collide' test case in t3404 to test specifically for the case where the rebase is resumed. We also hard-code the expected colliding short SHA-1s, to document the expectation (and to make it easier on future readers). Note that we specifically test that the short commit ID is used in the `git-rebase-todo.tmp` file: this file is created by the fake editor in the test script and reflects the state that would have been presented to the user to edit.

2020-01-23parse_insn_line(): improve error message when parsing failedLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-3/+4
In the case that a `get_oid()` call failed, we showed some rather bogus part of the line instead of the precise string we sent to said function. That makes it rather hard for users to understand what is going wrong, so let's fix that. While at it, return a negative value from `parse_insn_line()` in case of an error, as per our convention. This function's only caller, `todo_list_parse_insn_buffer()`, cares only whether that return value is non-zero or not, i.e. does not need to be changed.

2019-12-06commit: give correct advice for empty commit during a rebaseLibravatar Phillip Wood1-8/+31
In dcb500dc16c (cherry-pick/revert: advise using --skip, 2019-07-02), `git commit` learned to suggest to run `git cherry-pick --skip` when trying to cherry-pick an empty patch. However, it was overlooked that there are more conditions than just a `git cherry-pick` when this advice is printed (which originally suggested the neutral `git reset`): the same can happen during a rebase. Let's suggest the correct command, even during a rebase. While at it, we adjust more places in `builtin/commit.c` that incorrectly assumed that the presence of a `CHERRY_PICK_HEAD` meant that surely this must be a `cherry-pick` in progress. Note: we take pains to handle the situation when a user runs a `git cherry-pick` _during_ a rebase. This is quite valid (e.g. in an `exec` line in an interactive rebase). On the other hand, it is not possible to run a rebase during a cherry-pick, meaning: if both `rebase-merge/` and `sequencer/` exist or CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and REBASE_HEAD point to the same commit , we still want to advise to use `git cherry-pick --skip`.

2019-12-06sequencer: write CHERRY_PICK_HEAD for reword and editLibravatar Phillip Wood1-1/+3
`git commit` relies on the presence of CHERRY_PICK_HEAD to show the correct error message in the case of an empty pick. This fixes a regression introduced by the conversion from shell to C. In the shell version everything was a cherry-pick as far as the sequencer code was concerned so it always wrote CHERRY_PICK_HEAD. The conversion to C forgot to update the code that creates CHERRY_PICK_HEAD. We do not want to create CHERRY_PICK_HEAD for fixup and squash commands as that would prevent `git commit --amend` from running. Note that the error message shown by `git commit` for an empty pick during a rebase is currently wrong as it talks about running `git cherry-pick --skip` rather than `git rebase --skip`. This will be fixed in a future commit which is why the tests are in t3403-rebase-skip.sh. Signed-off-by: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2019-11-30sequencer: fix a memory leak in sequencer_continue()Libravatar Alban Gruin1-2/+4
When continuing an interactive rebase after a merge conflict was solved, if the resolution could not be committed, sequencer_continue() would return early without releasing its todo list, resulting in a memory leak. This plugs this leak by jumping to the end of the function, where the todo list is deallocated. Signed-off-by: Alban Gruin <alban.gruin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2019-11-25sequencer: directly call pick_commits() from complete_action()Libravatar Alban Gruin1-4/+10
Currently, complete_action(), used by builtin/rebase.c to start a new rebase, calls sequencer_continue() to do it. Before the former calls pick_commits(), it - calls read_and_refresh_cache() -- this is unnecessary here as we've just called require_clean_work_tree() in complete_action() - calls read_populate_opts() -- this is unnecessary as we're starting a new rebase, so `opts' is fully populated - loads the todo list -- this is unnecessary as we've just populated the todo list in complete_action() - commits any staged changes -- this is unnecessary as we're starting a new rebase, so there are no staged changes - calls record_in_rewritten() -- this is unnecessary as we're starting a new rebase.
