2013-06-11Merge branch 'nd/warn-ambiguous-object-name'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+23
"git cmd <name>", when <name> happens to be a 40-hex string, directly uses the 40-hex string as an object name, even if a ref "refs/<some hierarchy>/<name>" exists. This disambiguation order is unlikely to change, but we should warn about the ambiguity just like we warn when more than one refs/ hierachies share the same name. * nd/warn-ambiguous-object-name: get_sha1: warn about full or short object names that look like refs
2013-06-11Merge branch 'rr/die-on-missing-upstream'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-7/+17
When a reflog notation is used for implicit "current branch", we did not say which branch and worse said "branch ''". * rr/die-on-missing-upstream: sha1_name: fix error message for @{<N>}, @{<date>} sha1_name: fix error message for @{u}
2013-06-02sha1_name: fix error message for @{<N>}, @{<date>}Libravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-1/+10
Currently, when we try to resolve @{<N>} or @{<date>} when the reflog doesn't go back far enough, we get errors like: # on branch master $ git show @{10000} fatal: Log for '' only has 7 entries. $ git show @{10000.days.ago} warning: Log for '' only goes back to Tue, 21 May 2013 14:14:45 +0530. ... # detached HEAD case $ git show @{10000} fatal: Log for '' only has 2005 entries. $ git show master@{10000} fatal: Log for 'master' only has 7 entries. The empty string '' is confusing and does not convey information about whose logs we are inspecting. Change this so that we get: # on branch master $ git show @{10000} fatal: Log for 'master' only has 7 entries. $ git show @{10000.days.ago} warning: Log for 'master' only goes back to Tue, 21 May 2013 14:14:45 +0530. ... # detached HEAD case $ git show @{10000} fatal: Log for 'HEAD' only has 2005 entries. $ git show master@{10000} fatal: Log for 'master' only has 7 entries.

2013-05-29get_sha1: warn about full or short object names that look like refsLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+23
When we get 40 hex digits, we immediately assume it's an SHA-1. This is the right thing to do because we have no way else to specify an object. If there is a ref with the same object name, it will be ignored. Warn the user about this case because the ref with full object name is likely a mistake, for example git checkout -b $empty_var $(git rev-parse something) advice.object_name_warning is not documented because frankly people should not be aware about it until they encounter this situation. While at there, warn about ambiguation with abbreviated SHA-1 too. Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-05-22sha1_name: fix error message for @{u}Libravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-6/+7
Currently, when no (valid) upstream is configured for a branch, you get an error like: $ git show @{u} error: No upstream configured for branch 'upstream-error' error: No upstream configured for branch 'upstream-error' fatal: ambiguous argument '@{u}': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' The "error: " line actually appears twice, and the rest of the error message is useless. In sha1_name.c:interpret_branch_name(), there is really no point in processing further if @{u} couldn't be resolved, and we might as well die() instead of returning an error(). After making this change, you get: $ git show @{u} fatal: No upstream configured for branch 'upstream-error' Also tweak a few tests in t1507 to expect this output. This only turns error() that may be called after we know we are dealing with an @{upstream} marker into die(), without touching silent error returns "return -1" from the function. Any caller that wants to handle an error condition itself will not be hurt by this change, unless they want to see the message from error() and then exit silently without giving its own message, which needs to be fixed anyway.

2013-05-16strbuf_branchname(): do not double-expand @{-1}~22Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+6
If you were on 'frotz' branch before you checked out your current branch, "git merge @{-1}~22" means the same as "git merge frotz~22". The strbuf_branchname() function, when interpret_branch_name() gives up resolving "@{-1}~22" fully, returns "frotz" and tells the caller that it only resolved "@{-1}" part of the input, mistakes this as a total failure, and appends the whole thing to the result, yielding "frotz@{-1}~22", which does not make any sense. Inspect the return value from interpret_branch_name() a bit more carefully. When it errored out without consuming anything, we will get -1 and we should return the whole thing. Otherwise, we should append the remainder (i.e. "~22" in the earlier example) to the partially resolved name (i.e. "frotz"). The test suite adds enough number of checkout to make @{-12} in the last test in t0100 that tried to check "we haven't flipped branches that many times" error case succeed; raise the number to a hundred.

2013-05-08Add new @ shortcut for HEADLibravatar Felipe Contreras1-0/+17
Typing 'HEAD' is tedious, especially when we can use '@' instead. The reason for choosing '@' is that it follows naturally from the ref@op syntax (e.g. HEAD@{u}), except we have no ref, and no operation, and when we don't have those, it makes sens to assume 'HEAD'. So now we can use 'git show @~1', and all that goody goodness. Until now '@' was a valid name, but it conflicts with this idea, so let's make it invalid. Probably very few people, if any, used this name. Signed-off-by: Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-05-08sha1_name: reorganize get_sha1_basic()Libravatar Felipe Contreras1-11/+19
Through the years the functionality to handle @{-N} and @{u} has moved around the code, and as a result, code that once made sense, doesn't any more. There is no need to call this function recursively with the branch of @{-N} substituted because dwim_{ref,log} already replaces it. However, there's one corner-case where @{-N} resolves to a detached HEAD, in which case we wouldn't get any ref back. So we parse the nth-prior manually, and deal with it depending on whether it's a SHA-1, or a ref.

2013-04-03Merge branch 'jc/sha1-name-object-peeler'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+5
There was no good way to ask "I have a random string that came from outside world. I want to turn it into a 40-hex object name while making sure such an object exists". A new peeling suffix ^{object} can be used for that purpose, together with "rev-parse --verify". * jc/sha1-name-object-peeler: peel_onion(): teach $foo^{object} peeler peel_onion: disambiguate to favor tree-ish when we know we want a tree-ish
2013-03-31peel_onion(): teach $foo^{object} peelerLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+3
A string that names an object can be suffixed with ^{type} peeler to say "I have this object name; peel it until you get this type. If you cannot do so, it is an error". v1.8.2^{commit} asks for a commit that is pointed at an annotated tag v1.8.2; v1.8.2^{tree} unwraps it further to the top-level tree object. A special suffix ^{} (i.e. no type specified) means "I do not care what it unwraps to; just peel annotated tag until you get something that is not a tag". When you have a random user-supplied string, you can turn it to a bare 40-hex object name, and cause it to error out if such an object does not exist, with: git rev-parse --verify "$userstring^{}" for most objects, but this does not yield the tag object name when $userstring refers to an annotated tag. Introduce a new suffix, ^{object}, that only makes sure the given name refers to an existing object. Then git rev-parse --verify "$userstring^{object}" becomes a way to make sure $userstring refers to an existing object. This is necessary because the plumbing "rev-parse --verify" is only about "make sure the argument is something we can feed to get_sha1() and turn it into a raw 20-byte object name SHA-1" and is not about "make sure that 20-byte object name SHA-1 refers to an object that exists in our object store". When the given $userstring is already a 40-hex, by definition "rev-parse --verify $userstring" can turn it into a raw 20-byte object name. With "$userstring^{object}", we can make sure that the 40-hex string names an object that exists in our object store before "--verify" kicks in. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-03-08reflog: add for_each_reflog_ent_reverse() APILibravatar Junio C Hamano1-30/+18
"git checkout -" is a short-hand for "git checkout @{-1}" and the "@{nth}" notation for a negative number is to find nth previous checkout in the reflog of the HEAD to determine the name of the branch the user was on. We would want to find the nth most recent reflog entry that matches "checkout: moving from X to Y" for this. Unfortunately, reflog is implemented as an append-only file, and the API to iterate over its entries, for_each_reflog_ent(), reads the file in order, giving the entries from the oldest to newer. For the purpose of finding nth most recent one, this API forces us to record the last n entries in a rotating buffer and give the result out only after we read everything. To optimize for a common case of finding the nth most recent one for a small value of n, we also have a side API for_each_recent_reflog_ent() that starts reading near the end of the file, but it still has to read the entries in the "wrong" order. The implementation of understanding @{-1} uses this interface. This all becomes unnecessary if we add an API to let us iterate over reflog entries in the reverse order, from the newest to older.

This patch adds support for "commit", "treeish", "tree", and "blob", which could be used in the following contexts: - "git apply --build-fake-ancestor" reads the "index" lines from the patch; they must name blob objects (not even "blob-ish"); - "git commit-tree" reads a tree object name (not "tree-ish"), and zero or more commit object names (not "committish"); - "git reset $rev" wants a committish; "git reset $rev -- $path" wants a treeish.

2012-07-03get_sha1(): fix error status regressionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
In finish_object_disambiguation(), if the candidate hasn't been checked, there are two cases: - It is the first and only object that match the prefix; or - It replaced another object that matched the prefix but that object did not satisfy ds->fn() callback. And the former case we set ds->candidate_ok to true without doing anything else, while for the latter we check the candidate, which may set ds->candidate_ok to false. At this point in the code, ds->candidate_ok can be false only if this last-round check found that the candidate does not pass the check, because the state after update_candidates() returns cannot satisfy !ds->ambiguous && ds->candidate_exists && ds->candidate_checked and !ds->canidate_ok at the same time. Hence, when we execute this "return", we know we have seen more than one object that match the prefix (and none of them satisfied ds->fn), meaning that we should say "the short name is ambiguous", not "there is no object that matches the prefix". Noticed by Jeff King. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2012-07-03sha1_name.c: restructure disambiguation of short namesLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-60/+112
We try to find zero, one or more matches from loose objects and packed objects independently and then decide if the given short object name is unique across them. Instead, introduce a "struct disambiguate_state" that keeps track of what we have found so far, that can be one of: - We have seen one object that _could_ be what we are looking for; - We have also checked that object for additional constraints (if any), and found that the object satisfies it; - We have also checked that object for additional constraints (if any), and found that the object does not satisfy it; or - We have seen more than one objects that satisfy the constraints. and pass it to the enumeration functions for loose and packed objects. The disambiguation state can optionally take a callback function that takes a candidate object name and reports if the object satisifies additional criteria (e.g. when the caller knows that the short name must refer to a commit, this mechanism can be used to check the type of the given object). Compared to the earlier attempt, this round avoids the optional check if there is only one candidate that matches the short name in the first place. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2012-06-18sha1_name: do not trigger detailed diagnosis for file argumentsLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-1/+1
diagnose_invalid_sha1_path() is meant to be called to diagnose a misspelt <treeish>:<pathname> when <pathname> does not exist in <treeish>. However, the code may call it if <treeish>:<pathname> is invalid (which triggers another call with only_to_die == 1), but for another reason. This happens when calling e.g. git log existing-file HEAD:existing-file because existing-file is a path and not a revision, the code verifies that the arguments that follow to be paths. This leads to an incorrect message like "existing-file does not exist in HEAD", even though the path exists in HEAD.

2012-04-15Provide branch name in error message when using @{u}Libravatar Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek1-4/+8
When using @{u} or @{upstream} it is common to omit the branch name, implying current branch. If the upstream is not configured, the error message was "No upstream branch found for ''". When resolving '@{u}', branch_get() is called, which almost always returns a description of a branch. This allows us to use a branch name in the error message, even if the user said something like '@{u}'. The only case when branch_get() returns NULL is when HEAD points to so something which is not a branch. Of course this also means that no upstream is configured, but it is better to directly say that HEAD does not point to a branch.

* jc/broken-ref-dwim-fix: resolve_ref(): report breakage to the caller without warning resolve_ref(): expose REF_ISBROKEN flag refs.c: move dwim_ref()/dwim_log() from sha1_name.c
2011-10-12refs.c: move dwim_ref()/dwim_log() from sha1_name.cLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-85/+0
Both dwim_ref()/dwim_log() functions are intimately related to the ref parsing rules defined in refs.c and better fits there. Move them together with substitute_branch_name(), a file scope static helper function. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
