2017-03-08rev-parse: add --show-superproject-working-treeLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+8
In some situations it is useful to know if the given repository is a submodule of another repository. Add the flag --show-superproject-working-tree to git-rev-parse to make it easy to find out if there is a superproject. When no superproject exists, the output will be empty.

"git rm" used to refuse to remove a submodule when it has its own git repository embedded in its working tree.

2016-12-27submodule: rename and add flags to ok_to_remove_submoduleLibravatar Stefan Beller1-1/+5
In different contexts the question "Is it ok to delete a submodule?" may be answered differently. In 293ab15eea (submodule: teach rm to remove submodules unless they contain a git directory, 2012-09-26) a case was made that we can safely ignore ignored untracked files for removal as we explicitely ask for the removal of the submodule. In a later patch we want to remove submodules even when the user doesn't explicitly ask for it (e.g. checking out a tree-ish in which the submodule doesn't exist). In that case we want to be more careful when it comes to deletion of untracked files. As of this patch it is unclear how this will be implemented exactly, so we'll offer flags in which the caller can specify how the different untracked files ought to be handled. As the flags allow the function to not die on an error when spawning a child process, we need to find an appropriate return code for the case when the child process could not be started. As in that case we cannot tell if the submodule is ok to remove, we'd want to return 'false'. As only 0 is understood as false, rename the function to invert the meaning, i.e. the return code of 0 signals the removal of the submodule is fine, and other values can be used to return a more precise answer what went wrong.

2016-12-27submodule.h: add extern keyword to functionsLibravatar Stefan Beller1-25/+30
As the upcoming series will add a lot of functions to the submodule header, let's first make the header consistent to the rest of the project by adding the extern keyword to functions. As per the CodingGuidelines we try to stay below 80 characters per line, so adapt all those functions to stay below 80 characters that are already using more than one line. Those function using just one line are better kept in one line than breaking them up into multiple lines just for the goal of staying below the character limit as it makes grepping for functions easier if they are one liners.

2016-12-12submodule: add absorb-git-dir functionLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+4
When a submodule has its git dir inside the working dir, the submodule support for checkout that we plan to add in a later patch will fail. Add functionality to migrate the git directory to be absorbed into the superprojects git directory. The newly added code in this patch is structured such that other areas of Git can also make use of it. The code in the submodule--helper is a mere wrapper and option parser for the function `absorb_git_dir_into_superproject`, that takes care of embedding the submodules git directory into the superprojects git dir. That function makes use of the more abstract function for this use case `relocate_gitdir`, which can be used by e.g. the worktree code eventually to move around a git directory.

2016-11-23push: fix --dry-run to not push submodulesLibravatar Brandon Williams1-1/+3
Teach push to respect the --dry-run option when configured to recursively push submodules 'on-demand'. This is done by passing the --dry-run flag to the child process which performs a push for a submodules when performing a dry-run. In order to preserve good user experience, the additional check for unpushed submodules is skipped during a dry-run when --recurse-submodules=on-demand. The check is skipped because the submodule pushes were performed as dry-runs and this check would always fail as the submodules would still need to be pushed.

2016-05-06submodule: stop sanitizing config optionsLibravatar Jeff King1-10/+1
The point of having a whitelist of command-line config options to pass to submodules was two-fold: 1. It prevented obvious nonsense like using core.worktree for multiple repos. 2. It could prevent surprise when the user did not mean for the options to leak to the submodules (e.g., http.sslverify=false). For case 1, the answer is mostly "if it hurts, don't do that". For case 2, we can note that any such example has a matching inverted surprise (e.g., a user who meant http.sslverify=true to apply everywhere, but it didn't). So this whitelist is probably not giving us any benefit, and is already creating a hassle as people propose things to put on it. Let's just drop it entirely. Note that we still need to keep a special code path for "prepare the submodule environment", because we still have to take care to pass through $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS (and block the rest of the repo-specific environment variables). We can do this easily from within the submodule shell script, which lets us drop the submodule--helper option entirely (and it's OK to do so because as a "--" program, it is entirely a private implementation detail).

2016-04-16submodule: port init from shell to CLibravatar Stefan Beller1-0/+1
By having the `submodule init` functionality in C, we can reference it easier from other parts in the code in later patches. The code is split up to have one function to initialize one submodule and a calling function that takes care of the rest, such as argument handling and translating the arguments to the paths of the submodules. This is the first submodule subcommand that is fully converted to C except for the usage string, so this is actually removing a call to the `submodule--helper list` function, which is supposed to be used in this transition. Instead we'll make a direct call to `module_list_compute`. An explanation why we need to edit the prefixes in cmd_update in git-submodule.sh in this patch: By having no processing in the shell part, we need to convey the notion of wt_prefix and prefix to the C parts, which former patches punted on and did the processing of displaying path in the shell. `wt_prefix` used to hold the path from the repository root to the current directory, e.g. wt_prefix would be t/ if the user invoked the `git submodule` command in ~/repo/t and ~repo is the GIT_DIR. `prefix` used to hold the relative path from the repository root to the operation, e.g. if you have recursive submodules, the shell script would modify the `prefix` in each recursive step by adding the submodule path. We will pass `wt_prefix` into the C helper via `git -C <dir>` as that will setup git in the directory the user actually called git-submodule.sh from. The `prefix` will be passed in via the `--prefix` option. Having `prefix` and `wt_prefix` relative to the GIT_DIR of the calling superproject is unfortunate with this patch as the C code doesn't know about a possible recursion from a superproject via `submodule update --init --recursive`. To fix this, we change the meaning of `wt_prefix` to point to the current project instead of the superproject and `prefix` to include any relative paths issues in the superproject. That way `prefix` will become the leading part for displaying paths and `wt_prefix` will be empty in recursive calls for now. The new notion of `wt_prefix` and `prefix` still allows us to reconstruct the calling directory in the superproject by just traveling reverse of `prefix`.

2015-08-19submodule: implement a config API for lookup of .gitmodules valuesLibravatar Heiko Voigt1-0/+1
In a superproject some commands need to interact with submodules. They need to query values from the .gitmodules file either from the worktree of from certain revisions. At the moment this is quite hard since a caller would need to read the .gitmodules file from the history and then parse the values. We want to provide an API for this so we have one place to get values from .gitmodules from any revision (including the worktree). The API is realized as a cache which allows us to lazily read .gitmodules configurations by commit into a runtime cache which can then be used to easily lookup values from it. Currently only the values for path or name are stored but it can be extended for any value needed. It is expected that .gitmodules files do not change often between commits. Thats why we lookup the .gitmodules sha1 from a commit and then either lookup an already parsed configuration or parse and cache an unknown one for each sha1. The cache is lazily build on demand for each requested commit. This cache can be used for all purposes which need knowledge about submodule configurations. Example use cases are: * Recursive submodule checkout needs to lookup a submodule name from its path when a submodule first appears. This needs be done before this configuration exists in the worktree. * The implementation of submodule support for 'git archive' needs to lookup the submodule name to generate the archive when given a revision that is not checked out. * 'git fetch' when given the --recurse-submodules=on-demand option (or configuration) needs to lookup submodule names by path from the database rather than reading from the worktree. For new submodule it needs to lookup the name from its path to allow cloning new submodules into the .git folder so they can be checked out without any network interaction when the user does a checkout of that revision.

2013-08-06rm: delete .gitmodules entry of submodules removed from the work treeLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+1
Currently using "git rm" on a submodule removes the submodule's work tree from that of the superproject and the gitlink from the index. But the submodule's section in .gitmodules is left untouched, which is a leftover of the now removed submodule and might irritate users (as opposed to the setting in .git/config, this must stay as a reminder that the user showed interest in this submodule so it will be repopulated later when an older commit is checked out). Let "git rm" help the user by not only removing the submodule from the work tree but by also removing the "submodule.<submodule name>" section from the .gitmodules file and stage both. This doesn't happen when the "--cached" option is used, as it would modify the work tree. This also silently does nothing when no .gitmodules file is found and only issues a warning when it doesn't have a section for this submodule. This is because the user might just use plain gitlinks without the .gitmodules file or has already removed the section by hand before issuing the "git rm" command (in which case the warning reminds him that rm would have done that for him). Only when .gitmodules is found and contains merge conflicts the rm command will fail and tell the user to resolve the conflict before trying again. Also extend the man page to inform the user about this new feature. While at it promote the submodule sub-section to a chapter as it made not much sense under "REMOVING FILES THAT HAVE DISAPPEARED FROM THE FILESYSTEM". In t7610 three uses of "git rm submod" had to be replaced with "git rm --cached submod" because that test expects .gitmodules and the work tree to stay untouched. Also in t7400 the tests for the remaining settings in the .gitmodules file had to be changed to assert that these settings are missing.

When moving a submodule which uses a gitfile to point to the git directory stored in .git/modules/<name> of the superproject two changes must be made to make the submodule work: the .git file and the core.worktree setting must be adjusted to point from work tree to git directory and back. Achieve that by remembering which submodule uses a gitfile by storing the result of read_gitfile() of each submodule. If that is not NULL the new function connect_work_tree_and_git_dir() is called after renaming the submodule's work tree which updates the two settings to the new values.

2012-09-29submodule: teach rm to remove submodules unless they contain a git directoryLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+2
Currently using "git rm" on a submodule - populated or not - fails with this error: fatal: git rm: '<submodule path>': Is a directory This made sense in the past as there was no way to remove a submodule without possibly removing unpushed parts of the submodule's history contained in its .git directory too, so erroring out here protected the user from possible loss of data. But submodules cloned with a recent git version do not contain the .git directory anymore, they use a gitfile to point to their git directory which is safely stored inside the superproject's .git directory. The work tree of these submodules can safely be removed without losing history, so let's teach git to do so. Using rm on an unpopulated submodule now removes the empty directory from the work tree and the gitlink from the index. If the submodule's directory is missing from the work tree, it will still be removed from the index. Using rm on a populated submodule using a gitfile will apply the usual checks for work tree modification adapted to submodules (unless forced). For a submodule that means that the HEAD is the same as recorded in the index, no tracked files are modified and no untracked files that aren't ignored are present in the submodules work tree (ignored files are deemed expendable and won't stop a submodule's work tree from being removed). That logic has to be applied in all nested submodules too. Using rm on a submodule which has its .git directory inside the work trees top level directory will just error out like it did before to protect the repository, even when forced. In the future git could either provide a message informing the user to convert the submodule to use a gitfile or even attempt to do the conversion itself, but that is not part of this change.

2012-09-02submodule: use argv_array instead of hand-building arraysLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-1/+2
fetch_populated_submodules() allocates the full argv array it uses to recurse into the submodules from the number of given options plus the six argv values it is going to add. It then initializes it with those values which won't change during the iteration and copies the given options into it. Inside the loop the two argv values different for each submodule get replaced with those currently valid. However, this technique is brittle and error-prone (as the comment to explain the magic number 6 indicates), so let's replace it with an argv_array. Instead of replacing the argv values, push them to the argv_array just before the run_command() call (including the option separating them) and pop them from the argv_array right after that.

When using this option git will search for all submodules that have changed in the revisions to be send. It will then try to push the currently checked out branch of each submodule. This helps when a user has finished working on a change which involves submodules and just wants to push everything in one go.

2011-10-13submodule: Search for merges only at end of recursive mergeLibravatar Brad King1-1/+1
The submodule merge search is not useful during virtual merges because the results cannot be used automatically. Furthermore any suggestions made by the search may apply to commits different than HEAD:sub and MERGE_HEAD:sub, thus confusing the user. Skip searching for submodule merges during a virtual merge such as that between B and C while merging the heads of: B---BC / \ / A X \ / \ C---CB Run the search only when the recursion level is zero (!o->call_depth).

2011-08-20push: Don't push a repository with unpushed submodulesLibravatar Fredrik Gustafsson1-0/+1
When working with submodules it is easy to forget to push a submodule to the server but pushing a super-project that contains a commit for that submodule. The result is that the superproject points at a submodule commit that is not available on the server. This adds the option --recurse-submodules=check to push. When using this option git will check that all submodule commits that are about to be pushed are present on a remote of the submodule. To be able to use a combined diff, disabling a diff callback has been removed from combined-diff.c.

2011-03-09fetch/pull: Add the 'on-demand' value to the --recurse-submodules optionLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-1/+1
Until now the --recurse-submodules option could only be used to either fetch all populated submodules recursively or to disable recursion completely. As fetch and pull now by default just fetch those submodules for which new commits have been fetched in the superproject, a command line option to enforce that behavior is needed to be able to override configuration settings.

2011-03-09fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessaryLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+9
To be able to access all commits of populated submodules referenced by the superproject it is sufficient to only then let "git fetch" recurse into a submodule when the new commits fetched in the superproject record new commits for it. Having these commits present is extremely useful when using the "--submodule" option to "git diff" (which is what "git gui" and "gitk" do since 1.6.6), as all submodule commits needed for creating a descriptive output can be accessed. Also merging submodule commits (added in 1.7.3) depends on the submodule commits in question being present to work. Last but not least this enables disconnected operation when using submodules, as all commits necessary for a successful "git submodule update -N" will have been fetched automatically. So we choose this mode as the default for fetch and pull. Before a new or changed ref from upstream is updated in update_local_ref() "git rev-list <new-sha1> --not --branches --remotes" is used to determine all newly fetched commits. These are then walked and diffed against their parent(s) to see if a submodule has been changed. If that is the case, its path is stored to be fetched after the superproject fetch is completed. Using the "--recurse-submodules" or the "--no-recurse-submodules" option disables the examination of the fetched refs because the result will be ignored anyway. There is currently no infrastructure for storing deleted and new submodules in the .git directory of the superproject. That's why fetch and pull for now only fetch submodules that are already checked out and are not renamed. In t7403 the "--no-recurse-submodules" argument had to be added to "git pull" to avoid failure because of the moved upstream submodule repo.

2010-11-12fetch/pull: Add the --recurse-submodules optionLibravatar Jens Lehmann1-0/+3
Until now you had to call "git submodule update" (without -N|--no-fetch option) or something like "git submodule foreach git fetch" to fetch new commits in populated submodules from their remote. This could lead to "(commits not present)" messages in the output of "git diff --submodule" (which is used by "git gui" and "gitk") after fetching or pulling new commits in the superproject and is an obstacle for implementing recursive checkout of submodules. Also "git submodule update" cannot fetch changes when disconnected, so it was very easy to forget to fetch the submodule changes before disconnecting only to discover later that they are needed. This patch adds the "--recurse-submodules" option to recursively fetch each populated submodule from the url configured in the .git/config of the submodule at the end of each "git fetch" or during "git pull" in the superproject. The submodule paths are taken from the index. The hidden option "--submodule-prefix" is added to "git fetch" to be able to print out the full paths of nested submodules.
