Further preliminary change to refs API. * hn/reftable-prep-part-2: Make HEAD a PSEUDOREF rather than PER_WORKTREE. Modify pseudo refs through ref backend storage t1400: use git rev-parse for testing PSEUDOREF existence
2020-08-06t: don't spuriously close and reopen quotesLibravatar Martin Ågren1-1/+1
In the test scripts, the recommended style is, e.g.: test_expect_success 'name' ' do-something somehow && do-some-more testing ' When using this style, any single quote in the multi-line test section is actually closing the lone single quotes that surround it. It can be a non-issue in practice: test_expect_success 'sed a little' ' sed -e 's/hi/lo/' in >out # "ok": no whitespace in s/hi/lo/ ' Or it can be a bug in the test, e.g., because variable interpolation happens before the test even begins executing: v=abc test_expect_success 'variable interpolation' ' v=def && echo '"$v"' # abc ' Change several such in-test single quotes to use double quotes instead or, in a few cases, drop them altogether. These were identified using some crude grepping. We're not fixing any test bugs here, but we're hopefully making these tests slightly easier to grok and to maintain. There are legitimate use cases for closing a quote and opening a new one, e.g., both '\'' and '"'"' can be used to produce a literal single quote. I'm not touching any of those here. In t9401, tuck the redirecting ">" to the filename while we're touching those lines. Signed-off-by: Martin Ågren <martin.agren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-07-27Modify pseudo refs through ref backend storageLibravatar Han-Wen Nienhuys1-5/+5
The previous behavior was introduced in commit 74ec19d4be ("pseudorefs: create and use pseudoref update and delete functions", Jul 31, 2015), with the justification "alternate ref backends still need to store pseudorefs in GIT_DIR". Refs such as REBASE_HEAD are read through the ref backend. This can only work consistently if they are written through the ref backend as well. Tooling that works directly on files under .git should be updated to use git commands to read refs instead. The following behaviors change: * Updates to pseudorefs (eg. ORIG_HEAD) with core.logAllRefUpdates=always will create reflogs for the pseudoref. * non-HEAD pseudoref symrefs are also dereferenced on deletion. Update t1405 accordingly.

2020-04-02update-ref: implement interactive transaction handlingLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-0/+131
The git-update-ref(1) command can only handle queueing transactions right now via its "--stdin" parameter, but there is no way for users to handle the transaction itself in a more explicit way. E.g. in a replicated scenario, one may imagine a coordinator that spawns git-update-ref(1) for multiple repositories and only if all agree that an update is possible will the coordinator send a commit. Such a transactional session could look like > start < start: ok > update refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW > prepare < prepare: ok # All nodes have returned "ok" > commit < commit: ok or > start < start: ok > create refs/heads/master $OLD $NEW > prepare < fatal: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/master': reference already exists # On all other nodes: > abort < abort: ok In order to allow for such transactional sessions, this commit introduces four new commands for git-update-ref(1), which matches those we have internally already with the exception of "start": - start: start a new transaction - prepare: prepare the transaction, that is try to lock all references and verify their current value matches the expected one - commit: explicitly commit a session, that is update references to match their new expected state - abort: abort a session and roll back all changes By design, git-update-ref(1) will commit as soon as standard input is being closed. While fine in a non-transactional world, it is definitely unexpected in a transactional world. Because of this, as soon as any of the new transactional commands is used, the default will change to aborting without an explicit "commit". To avoid a race between queueing updates and the first "prepare" that starts a transaction, the "start" command has been added to start an explicit transaction. Add some tests to exercise this new functionality. Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2020-01-30sha1-name: mark get_oid() error messages for translationLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+6
There are several error messages in get_oid() and its children that are clearly intended for humans, but aren't marked for translation. E.g.: $ git show :1:foo fatal: Path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1. Did you mean ':0:foo'? Let's mark these for translation. While we're at it, let's switch the style to be more like our usual error messages: start with a lowercase letter and omit a period at the end of the line. This does mean that multi-line messages like the one above don't have any punctuation between the two sentences. I solved that by adding a "hint" marker like we'd see from advise(). So the result is: $ git show :1:foo fatal: path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1 hint: Did you mean ':0:foo'? A few tests had to be switched to test_i18ngrep and test_i18ncmp.

2020-01-28t1400: avoid "test" string comparisonsLibravatar Jeff King1-12/+24
Using the shell "test" here is inflexible, because we can't easily swap it out for an i18n-aware version like we can with test_cmp and test_i18ncmp. And it's not even saving us any processes, since we have to use "cat" to get the output. So let's switch to using test_cmp, which has the added bonus that it will produce better output if there's a failure. Note that not all of the changed outputs here are candidates for translation, but I've converted all of them for consistency and to benefit from the better output.

This line has actually been modified four times since it was introduced in e52290428b (General ref log reading improvements., 2006-05-19) and the `echo` has always survived. Let's finally drop it.

2018-09-12update-ref: allow --no-deref with --stdinLibravatar Elijah Newren1-0/+31
If passed both --no-deref and --stdin, update-ref would error out with a general usage message that did not at all suggest these options were incompatible. The manpage for update-ref did suggest through its synopsis line that --no-deref and --stdin were incompatible, but it sadly also incorrectly suggested that -d and --no-deref were incompatible. So the help around the --no-deref option is buggy in a few ways. The --stdin option did provide a different mechanism for avoiding dereferencing symbolic-refs: adding a line reading option no-deref before every other directive in the input. (Technically, if the user wants to do the extra work of first determining which refs they want to update or delete are symbolic, then they only need to put the extra "option no-deref" lines before the updates of those refs. But in some cases, that's more work than just adding the "option no-deref" before every other directive.) It's easier to allow the user to just pass --no-deref along with --stdin in order to tell update-ref that the user doesn't want any symbolic ref to be dereferenced. It also makes the update-ref documentation simpler. Implement that, and update the documentation to match.

2018-05-13refs: handle zero oid for pseudorefsLibravatar Martin Ågren1-2/+2
According to the documentation, it is possible to "specify 40 '0' or an empty string as <oldvalue> to make sure that the ref you are creating does not exist." But in the code for pseudorefs, we do not implement this, as demonstrated by the failing tests added in the previous commit. If we fail to read the old ref, we immediately die. But a failure to read would actually be a good thing if we have been given the zero oid. With the zero oid, allow -- and even require -- the ref-reading to fail. This implements the "make sure that the ref ... does not exist" part of the documentation and fixes both failing tests from the previous commit. Since we have a `strbuf err` for collecting errors, let's use it and signal an error to the caller instead of dying hard.

A group of update-ref tests verifies that logs are created when either the log file for the ref already exists or core.logAllRefUpdates is "true". However, when the default for core.logAllRefUpdates was changed in 0bee59186 (Enable reflogs by default in any repository with a working directory., 2006-12-14), the setup for the tests was not updated.

Update the "logged by touch" tests to disable core.logAllRefUpdates explicitly so that the behavior does not depend on the default value.

2017-01-31refs: add option core.logAllRefUpdates = alwaysLibravatar Cornelius Weig1-0/+37
When core.logallrefupdates is true, we only create a new reflog for refs that are under certain well-known hierarchies. The reason is that we know that some hierarchies (like refs/tags) are not meant to change, and that unknown hierarchies might not want reflogs at all (e.g., a hypothetical refs/foo might be meant to change often and drop old history immediately). However, sometimes it is useful to override this decision and simply log for all refs, because the safety and audit trail is more important than the performance implications of keeping the log around. This patch introduces a new "always" mode for the core.logallrefupdates option which will log updates to everything under refs/, regardless where in the hierarchy it is (we still will not log things like ORIG_HEAD and FETCH_HEAD, which are known to be transient).

2017-01-07files_transaction_commit(): clean up empty directoriesLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-0/+27
When deleting/pruning references, remove any directories that are made empty by the deletion of loose references or of reflogs. Otherwise such empty directories can survive forever and accumulate over time. (Even 'pack-refs', which is smart enough to remove the parent directories of loose references that it prunes, leaves directories that were already empty.) And now that files_transaction_commit() takes care of deleting the parent directories of loose references that it prunes, we don't have to do that in prune_ref() anymore. This change would be unwise if the *creation* of these directories could race with our deletion of them. But the earlier changes in this patch series made the creation paths robust against races, so now it is safe to tidy them up more aggressively.

2016-06-17tests: use test_i18n* functions to suppress false positivesLibravatar Vasco Almeida1-1/+1
The test functions test_i18ncmp and test_i18ngrep pretend success if run under GETTEXT_POISON. By using those functions to test output which is correctly marked as translatable, enables one to detect if the strings newly marked for translation are from plumbing output. If they are indeed from plumbing, the test would fail, and the string should be unmarked, since it is not seen by users. Thus, it is productive to not have false positives when running the test under GETTEXT_POISON. This commit replaces normal test functions by their i18n aware variants in use-cases know to be correctly marked for translation, suppressing false positives.

Before committing ref updates, split symbolic ref updates into two parts: an update to the underlying ref, and a log-only update to the symbolic ref. This ensures that both references are locked correctly during the transaction, including while their reflogs are updated. Similarly, if the reference pointed to by HEAD is modified directly, add a separate log-only update to HEAD, rather than leaving the job of updating HEAD's reflog to commit_ref_update(). This change ensures that HEAD is locked correctly while its reflog is being modified, as well as being cheaper (HEAD only needs to be resolved once). This makes use of a new function, lock_raw_ref(), which is analogous to read_raw_ref(), but acquires a lock on the reference before reading it. This change still has two problems: * There are redundant read_ref_full() reference lookups. * It is still possible to get incorrect reflogs for symbolic references if there is a concurrent update by another process, since the old_oid of a symref is determined before the lock on the pointed-to ref is held. Both problems will soon be fixed. Signed-off-by: David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu> WIP
2016-06-13ref_transaction_update(): check refname_is_safe() at a minimumLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-1/+1
If the user has asked that a new value be set for a reference, we use check_refname_format() to verify that the reference name satisfies all of the rules. But in other cases, at least check that refname_is_safe(). Signed-off-by: Michael Haggerty <mhagger@alum.mit.edu>

2015-09-01refs: make refs/bisect/* per-worktreeLibravatar David Turner1-0/+19
We need the place we stick refs for bisects in progress to not be shared between worktrees. So we make the refs/bisect/ hierarchy per-worktree. The is_per_worktree_ref function and associated docs learn that refs/bisect/ is per-worktree, as does the git_path code in path.c The ref-packing functions learn that per-worktree refs should not be packed (since packed-refs is common rather than per-worktree). Since refs/bisect is per-worktree, logs/refs/bisect should be too. Signed-off-by: David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Tests that assume how reflogs are represented on the filesystem too much have been corrected. * dt/reflog-tests: tests: remove some direct access to .git/logs t/t7509: remove unnecessary manipulation of reflog
2015-07-28tests: remove some direct access to .git/logsLibravatar David Turner1-3/+2
Alternate refs backends might store reflogs somewhere other than .git/logs. Change most test code that directly accesses .git/logs to instead use git reflog commands. There are still a few tests which need direct access to reflogs: to check reflog permissions, to manually create reflogs from scratch, to save/restore reflogs, to check the format of raw reflog data, and to remove not just reflog contents, but the reflogs themselves. All cases which don't need direct access have been modified. Signed-off-by: David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-07-21update-ref and tag: add --create-reflog argLibravatar David Turner1-0/+38
Allow the creation of a ref (e.g. stash) with a reflog already in place. For most refs (e.g. those under refs/heads), this happens automatically, but for others, we need this option. Currently, git does this by pre-creating the reflog, but alternate ref backends might store reflogs somewhere other than .git/logs. Code that now directly manipulates .git/logs should instead use git plumbing commands. I also added --create-reflog to git tag, just for completeness. In a moment, we will use this argument to make git stash work with alternate ref backends. Signed-off-by: David Turner <dturner@twopensource.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2015-05-12ref_transaction_commit(): fix atomicity and avoid fd exhaustionLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-2/+2
The old code was roughly for update in updates: acquire locks and check old_sha for update in updates: if changing value: write_ref_to_lockfile() commit_ref_update() for update in updates: if deleting value: unlink() rewrite packed-refs file for update in updates: if reference still locked: unlock_ref() This has two problems. Non-atomic updates ================== The atomicity of the reference transaction depends on all pre-checks being done in the first loop, before any changes have started being committed in the second loop. The problem is that write_ref_to_lockfile() (previously part of write_ref_sha1()), which is called from the second loop, contains two more checks: * It verifies that new_sha1 is a valid object * If the reference being updated is a branch, it verifies that new_sha1 points at a commit object (as opposed to a tag, tree, or blob). If either of these checks fails, the "transaction" is aborted during the second loop. But this might happen after some reference updates have already been permanently committed. In other words, the all-or-nothing promise of "git update-ref --stdin" could be violated. So these checks have to be moved to the first loop. File descriptor exhaustion ========================== The old code locked all of the references in the first loop, leaving all of the lockfiles open until later loops. Since we might be updating a lot of references, this could result in file descriptor exhaustion. The solution ============ After this patch, the code looks like for update in updates: acquire locks and check old_sha if changing value: write_ref_to_lockfile() else: close_ref() for update in updates: if changing value: commit_ref_update() for update in updates: if deleting value: unlink() rewrite packed-refs file for update in updates: if reference still locked: unlock_ref() This fixes both problems: 1. The pre-checks in write_ref_to_lockfile() are now done in the first loop, before any changes have been committed. If any of the checks fails, the whole transaction can now be rolled back correctly. 2. All lockfiles are closed in the first loop immediately after they are created (either by write_ref_to_lockfile() or by close_ref()). This means that there is never more than one open lockfile at a time, preventing file descriptor exhaustion. To simplify the bookkeeping across loops, add a new REF_NEEDS_COMMIT bit to update->flags, which keeps track of whether the corresponding lockfile needs to be committed, as opposed to just unlocked. (Since "struct ref_update" is internal to the refs module, this change is not visible to external callers.) This change fixes two tests in t1400.
