2020-07-16repository: allow repository format upgrade with extensionsLibravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+2
Now that we officially permit repository extensions in repository format v0, permit upgrading a repository with extensions from v0 to v1 as well. For example, this means a repository where the user has set "extensions.preciousObjects" can use "git fetch --filter=blob:none origin" to upgrade the repository to use v1 and the partial clone extension. To avoid mistakes, continue to forbid repository format upgrades in v0 repositories with an unrecognized extension. This way, a v0 user using a misspelled extension field gets a chance to correct the mistake before updating to the less forgiving v1 format. While we're here, make the error message for failure to upgrade the repository format a bit shorter, and present it as an error, not a warning.

2020-07-16Revert "check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old ↵Libravatar Jonathan Nieder1-2/+13
repositories" This reverts commit 14c7fa269e42df4133edd9ae7763b678ed6594cd. The core.repositoryFormatVersion field was introduced in ab9cb76f661 (Repository format version check., 2005-11-25), providing a welcome bit of forward compatibility, thanks to some welcome analysis by Martin Atukunda. The semantics are simple: a repository with core.repositoryFormatVersion set to 0 should be comprehensible by all Git implementations in active use; and Git implementations should error out early instead of trying to act on Git repositories with higher core.repositoryFormatVersion values representing new formats that they do not understand. A new repository format did not need to be defined until 00a09d57eb8 (introduce "extensions" form of core.repositoryformatversion, 2015-06-23). This provided a finer-grained extension mechanism for Git repositories. In a repository with core.repositoryFormatVersion set to 1, Git implementations can act on "extensions.*" settings that modify how a repository is interpreted. In repository format version 1, unrecognized extensions settings cause Git to error out. What happens if a user sets an extension setting but forgets to increase the repository format version to 1? The extension settings were still recognized in that case; worse, unrecognized extensions settings do *not* cause Git to error out. So combining repository format version 0 with extensions settings produces in some sense the worst of both worlds. To improve that situation, since 14c7fa269e4 (check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old repositories, 2020-06-05) Git instead ignores extensions in v0 mode. This way, v0 repositories get the historical (pre-2015) behavior and maintain compatibility with Git implementations that do not know about the v1 format. Unfortunately, users had been using this sort of configuration and this behavior change came to many as a surprise: - users of "git config --worktree" that had followed its advice to enable extensions.worktreeConfig (without also increasing the repository format version) would find their worktree configuration no longer taking effect - tools such as copybara[*] that had set extensions.partialClone in existing repositories (without also increasing the repository format version) would find that setting no longer taking effect The behavior introduced in 14c7fa269e4 might be a good behavior if we were traveling back in time to 2015, but we're far too late. For some reason I thought that it was what had been originally implemented and that it had regressed. Apologies for not doing my research when 14c7fa269e4 was under development. Let's return to the behavior we've had since 2015: always act on extensions.* settings, regardless of repository format version. While we're here, include some tests to describe the effect on the "upgrade repository version" code path.

2020-06-05check_repository_format_gently(): refuse extensions for old repositoriesLibravatar Xin Li1-0/+11
Previously, extensions were recognized regardless of repository format version.  If the user sets an undefined "extensions" value on a repository of version 0 and that value is used by a future git version, they might get an undesired result. Because all extensions now also upgrade repository versions, tightening the check would help avoid this for future extensions.

2020-06-05fetch: allow adding a filter after initial cloneLibravatar Xin Li1-0/+12
Retroactively adding a filter can be useful for existing shallow clones as they allow users to see earlier change histories without downloading all git objects in a regular --unshallow fetch. Without this patch, users can make a clone partial by editing the repository configuration to convert the remote into a promisor, like:   git config core.repositoryFormatVersion 1   git config extensions.partialClone origin   git fetch --unshallow --filter=blob:none origin Since the hard part of making this work is already in place and such edits can be error-prone, teach Git to perform the required configuration change automatically instead. Note that this change does not modify the existing git behavior which recognizes setting extensions.partialClone without changing repositoryFormatVersion.

2019-10-02promisor-remote: skip move_to_tail when no-opLibravatar Emily Shaffer1-0/+13
Previously, when promisor_remote_move_to_tail() is called for a promisor_remote which is currently the final element in promisors, a cycle is created in the promisors linked list. This cycle leads to a double free later on in promisor_remote_clear() when the final element of the promisors list is removed: promisors is set to promisors->next (a no-op, as promisors->next == promisors); the previous value of promisors is free()'d; then the new value of promisors (which is equal to the previous value of promisors) is also free()'d. This double-free error was unrecoverable for the user without removing the filter or re-cloning the repo and hoping to miss this edge case. Now, when promisor_remote_move_to_tail() would be a no-op, just do a no-op. In cases of promisor_remote_move_to_tail() where r is not already at the tail of the list, it works as before.

2019-09-09cache-tree: do not lazy-fetch tentative treeLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+14
The cache-tree datastructure is used to speed up the comparison between the HEAD and the index, and when the index is updated by a cherry-pick (for example), a tree object that would represent the paths in the index in a directory is constructed in-core, to see if such a tree object exists already in the object store. When the lazy-fetch mechanism was introduced, we converted this "does the tree exist?" check into an "if it does not, and if we lazily cloned, see if the remote has it" call by mistake. Since the whole point of this check is to repair the cache-tree by recording an already existing tree object opportunistically, we shouldn't even try to fetch one from the remote. Pass the OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT flag to make sure we only check for existence in the local object store without triggering the lazy fetch mechanism.

The commit-graph feature has seen a lot of activity in the past year or so since it was introduced. The feature is a critical performance enhancement for medium- to large-sized repos, and does not significantly hurt small repos. Change the defaults for core.commitGraph and gc.writeCommitGraph to true so users benefit from this feature by default. There are several places in the test suite where the environment variable GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH is disabled to avoid reading a commit-graph, if it exists. The config option overrides the environment, so swap these. Some GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH assignments remain, and those are to avoid writing a commit-graph when a new commit is created.

2019-08-02t: warn against adding non-httpd-specific tests after sourcing 'lib-httpd'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-0/+3
We have a couple of test scripts that are not completely httpd-specific, but do run a few httpd-specific tests at the end. These test scripts source 'lib-httpd.sh' somewhere mid-script, which then skips all the rest of the test script if the dependencies for running httpd tests are not fulfilled. As the previous two patches in this series show, already on two occasions non-httpd-specific tests were appended at the end of such test scripts, and, consequently, they were skipped as well when httpd tests couldn't be run. Add a comment at the end of these test scripts to warn against adding non-httpd-specific tests at the end, in the hope that they will help prevent similar issues in the future.

2019-01-07test-lib-functions: introduce the 'test_set_port' helper functionLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+0
Several test scripts run daemons like 'git-daemon' or Apache, and communicate with them through TCP sockets. To have unique ports where these daemons are accessible, the ports are usually the number of the corresponding test scripts, unless the user overrides them via environment variables, and thus all those tests and test libs contain more or less the same bit of one-liner boilerplate code to find out the port. The last patch in this series will make this a bit more complicated. Factor out finding the port for a daemon into the common helper function 'test_set_port' to avoid repeating ourselves. Take special care of test scripts with "low" numbers: - Test numbers below 1024 would result in a port that's only usable as root, so set their port to '10000 + test-nr' to make sure it doesn't interfere with other tests in the test suite. This makes the hardcoded port number in 't0410-partial-clone.sh' unnecessary, remove it. - The shell's arithmetic evaluation interprets numbers with leading zeros as octal values, which means that test number below 1000 and containing the digits 8 or 9 will trigger an error. Remove all leading zeros from the test numbers to prevent this. Note that the 'git p4' tests are unlike the other tests involving daemons in that: - 'lib-git-p4.sh' doesn't use the test's number for unique port as is, but does a bit of additional arithmetic on top [1]. - The port is not overridable via an environment variable. With this patch even 'git p4' tests will use the test's number as default port, and it will be overridable via the P4DPORT environment variable. [1] Commit fc00233071 (git-p4 tests: refactor and cleanup, 2011-08-22) introduced that "unusual" unique port computation without explaining why it was necessary (as opposed to simply using the test number as is). It seems to be just unnecessary complication, and in any case that commit came way before the "test nr as unique port" got "standardized" for other daemons in commits c44132fcf3 (tests: auto-set git-daemon port, 2014-02-10), 3bb486e439 (tests: auto-set LIB_HTTPD_PORT from test name, 2014-02-10), and bf9d7df950 (t/lib-git-svn.sh: improve svnserve tests with parallel make test, 2017-12-01).

A partial clone that is configured to lazily fetch missing objects will on-demand issue a "git fetch" request to the originating repository to fill not-yet-obtained objects.

2018-10-04fetch-pack: exclude blobs when lazy-fetching treesLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+41
A partial clone with missing trees can be obtained using "git clone --filter=tree:none <repo>". In such a repository, when a tree needs to be lazily fetched, any tree or blob it directly or indirectly references is fetched as well, regardless of whether the original command required those objects, or if the local repository already had some of them. This is because the fetch protocol, which the lazy fetch uses, does not allow clients to request that only the wanted objects be sent, which would be the ideal solution. This patch implements a partial solution: specify the "blob:none" filter, somewhat reducing the fetch payload. This change has no effect when lazily fetching blobs (due to how filters work). And if lazily fetching a commit (such repositories are difficult to construct and is not a use case we support very well, but it is possible), referenced commits and trees are still fetched - only the blobs are not fetched. The necessary code change is done in fetch_pack() instead of somewhere closer to where the "filter" instruction is written to the wire so that only one part of the code needs to be changed in order for users of all protocol versions to benefit from this optimization.

The commit-graph feature is tested in isolation by t5318-commit-graph.sh and t6600-test-reach.sh, but there are many more interesting scenarios involving commit walks. Many of these scenarios are covered by the existing test suite, but we need to maintain coverage when the optional commit-graph structure is not present. To allow running the full test suite with the commit-graph present, add a new test environment variable, GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH. Similar to GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX, this variable makes every Git command try to load the commit-graph when parsing commits, and writes the commit-graph file after every 'git commit' command. There are a few tests that rely on commits not existing in pack-files to trigger important events, so manually set GIT_TEST_COMMIT_GRAPH to false for the necessary commands. There is one test in t6024-recursive-merge.sh that relies on the merge-base algorithm picking one of two ambiguous merge-bases, and the commit-graph feature changes which merge-base is picked.

Teach rev-list to support termination of an object traversal at any object from a promisor remote (whether one that the local repo also has, or one that the local repo knows about because it has another promisor object that references it). This will be used subsequently in gc and in the connectivity check used by fetch. For efficiency, if an object is referenced by a promisor object, and is in the local repo only as a non-promisor object, object traversal will not stop there. This is to avoid building the list of promisor object references. (In list-objects.c, the case where obj is NULL in process_blob() and process_tree() do not need to be changed because those happen only when there is a conflict between the expected type and the existing object. If the object doesn't exist, an object will be synthesized, which is fine.)

2017-12-08sha1_file: support lazily fetching missing objectsLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+51
Teach sha1_file to fetch objects from the remote configured in extensions.partialclone whenever an object is requested but missing. The fetching of objects can be suppressed through a global variable. This is used by fsck and index-pack. However, by default, such fetching is not suppressed. This is meant as a temporary measure to ensure that all Git commands work in such a situation. Future patches will update some commands to either tolerate missing objects (without fetching them) or be more efficient in fetching them. In order to determine the code changes in sha1_file.c necessary, I investigated the following: (1) functions in sha1_file.c that take in a hash, without the user regarding how the object is stored (loose or packed) (2) functions in packfile.c (because I need to check callers that know about the loose/packed distinction and operate on both differently, and ensure that they can handle the concept of objects that are neither loose nor packed) (1) is handled by the modification to sha1_object_info_extended(). For (2), I looked at for_each_packed_object and others. For for_each_packed_object, the callers either already work or are fixed in this patch: - reachable - only to find recent objects - builtin/fsck - already knows about missing objects - builtin/cat-file - warning message added in this commit Callers of the other functions do not need to be changed: - parse_pack_index - http - indirectly from http_get_info_packs - find_pack_entry_one - this searches a single pack that is provided as an argument; the caller already knows (through other means) that the sought object is in a specific pack - find_sha1_pack - fast-import - appears to be an optimization to not store a file if it is already in a pack - http-walker - to search through a struct alt_base - http-push - to search through remote packs - has_sha1_pack - builtin/fsck - already knows about promisor objects - builtin/count-objects - informational purposes only (check if loose object is also packed) - builtin/prune-packed - check if object to be pruned is packed (if not, don't prune it) - revision - used to exclude packed objects if requested by user - diff - just for optimization Signed-off-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Currently, Git does not support repos with very large numbers of objects or repos that wish to minimize manipulation of certain blobs (for example, because they are very large) very well, even if the user operates mostly on part of the repo, because Git is designed on the assumption that every referenced object is available somewhere in the repo storage. In such an arrangement, the full set of objects is usually available in remote storage, ready to be lazily downloaded. Teach fsck about the new state of affairs. In this commit, teach fsck that missing promisor objects referenced from the reflog are not an error case; in future commits, fsck will be taught about other cases.
