2015-03-20t: fix trivial &&-chain breakageLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
These are tests which are missing a link in their &&-chain, but during a setup phase. We may fail to notice failure in commands that build the test environment, but these are typically not expected to fail at all (but it's still good to double-check that our test environment is what we expect).

Make the function is_local() in transport.c public, rename it into url_is_local_not_ssh() and use it in both transport.c and connect.c Use a protocol "local" for URLs for the local file system. One note about using file:// under Windows: The (absolute) path on Unix like system typically starts with "/". When the host is empty, it can be omitted, so that a shell scriptlet url=file://$pwd will give a URL like "file:///home/user/repo". Windows does not have the same concept of a root directory located in "/". When parsing the URL allow "file://C:/user/repo" (even if RFC1738 indicates that "file:///C:/user/repo" should be used).

2013-12-09git fetch: support host:/~repoLibravatar Torsten Bögershausen1-0/+24
The documentation (in urls.txt) says that "ssh://host:/~repo", "host:/~repo" or "host:~repo" specify the repository "repo" in the home directory at "host". This has not been working for "host:/~repo". Before commit 356bec "Support [address] in URLs", the comparison "url != hostname" could be used to determine if the URL had a scheme or not: "ssh://host/host" != "host". However, after 356bec "[::1]" was converted into "::1", yielding url != hostname as well. To fix this regression, don't use "if (url != hostname)", but look at the separator instead.

This is a testcase that checks for a problem where, during a specific shallow fetch where the client does not have any commits that are a successor of the new shallow root (i.e., the fetch creates a new detached piece of history), the server would simply send over _all_ objects, instead of taking into account the objects already present in the client.

2013-08-25fetch-pack: do not remove .git/shallow file when --depth is not specifiedLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+16
fetch_pack() can remove .git/shallow file when a shallow repository becomes a full one again. This behavior is triggered incorrectly when tags are also fetched because fetch_pack() will be called twice. At the first fetch_pack() call: - shallow_lock is set up - alternate_shallow_file points to shallow_lock.filename, which is "shallow.lock" - commit_lock_file is called, which sets shallow_lock.filename to "". alternate_shallow_file also becomes "" because it points to the same memory. At the second call, setup_alternate_shallow() is not called and alternate_shallow_file remains "". It's mistaken as unshallow case and .git/shallow is removed. The end result is a broken repository. Fix this by always initializing alternate_shallow_file when fetch_pack() is called. As an extra measure, check if args->depth > 0 before commit/rollback shallow file.

2013-03-16upload-pack: make sure "want" objects are parsedLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+9
When upload-pack receives a "want" line from the client, it adds it to an object array. We call lookup_object to find the actual object, which will only check for objects already in memory. This works because we are expecting to find objects that we already loaded during the ref advertisement. We use the resulting object structs for a variety of purposes. Some of them care only about the object flags, but others care about the type of the object (e.g., ok_to_give_up), or even feed them to the revision parser (when --depth is used), which assumes that objects it receives are fully parsed. Once upon a time, this was OK; any object we loaded into memory would also have been parsed. But since 435c833 (upload-pack: use peel_ref for ref advertisements, 2012-10-04), we try to avoid parsing objects during the ref advertisement. This means that lookup_object may return an object with a type of OBJ_NONE. The resulting mess depends on the exact set of objects, but can include the revision parser barfing, or the shallow code sending the wrong set of objects. This patch teaches upload-pack to parse each "want" object as we receive it. We do not replace the lookup_object call with parse_object, as the current code is careful not to let just any object appear on a "want" line, but rather only one we have previously advertised (whereas parse_object would actually load any arbitrary object from disk).

2013-01-11upload-pack: fix off-by-one depth calculation in shallow cloneLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-6/+19
get_shallow_commits() is used to determine the cut points at a given depth (i.e. the number of commits in a chain that the user likes to get). However we count current depth up to the commit "commit" but we do the cutting at its parents (i.e. current depth + 1). This makes upload-pack always return one commit more than requested.

2013-01-11fetch: add --unshallow for turning shallow repo into complete oneLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+20
The user can do --depth=2147483647 (*) for restoring complete repo now. But it's hard to remember. Any other numbers larger than the longest commit chain in the repository would also do, but some guessing may be involved. Make easy-to-remember --unshallow an alias for --depth=2147483647. Make upload-pack recognize this special number as infinite depth. The effect is essentially the same as before, except that upload-pack is more efficient because it does not have to traverse to the bottom anymore. The chance of a user actually wanting exactly 2147483647 commits depth, not infinite, on a repository with a history that long, is probably too small to consider. The client can learn to add or subtract one commit to avoid the special treatment when that actually happens. (*) This is the largest positive number a 32-bit signed integer can contain. JGit and older C Git store depth as "int" so both are OK with this number. Dulwich does not support shallow clone.

2012-09-12fetch_pack(): update sought->nr to reflect number of unique entriesLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-1/+1
fetch_pack() removes duplicates from the "sought" list, thereby shrinking the list. But previously, the caller was not informed about the shrinkage. This would cause a spurious error message to be emitted by cmd_fetch_pack() if "git fetch-pack" is called with duplicate refnames. Instead, remove duplicates using string_list_remove_duplicates(), which adjusts sought->nr to reflect the new length of the list. The last test of t5500 inexplicably *required* "git fetch-pack" to fail when fetching a list of references that contains duplicates; i.e., it insisted on the buggy behavior.

If all refs sent by the remote repo during a fetch are reachable locally, then no further conversation is performed with the remote. This check is skipped when the --depth argument is provided to allow the deepening of a shallow clone which corresponding remote repo has no changed. However, some additional filtering was added in commit c29727d5 to remove those refs which are equal on both sides. If the remote repo has not changed, then the list of refs to give the remote process becomes empty and simply attempting to deepen a shallow repo always fails.

This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other shell metacharacters. The majority of git svn tests used the idiom test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo" These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes: test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"' which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is. One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw * expecting success: test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo but now it is: * expecting success: test script using "$svnrepo" Signed-off-by: Bryan Donlan <bdonlan@fushizen.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2008-02-01Sane use of test_expect_failureLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-2/+2
Originally, test_expect_failure was designed to be the opposite of test_expect_success, but this was a bad decision. Most tests run a series of commands that leads to the single command that needs to be tested, like this: test_expect_{success,failure} 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && what is to be tested ' And expecting a failure exit from the whole sequence misses the point of writing tests. Your setup$N that are supposed to succeed may have failed without even reaching what you are trying to test. The only valid use of test_expect_failure is to check a trivial single command that is expected to fail, which is a minority in tests of Porcelain-ish commands. This large-ish patch rewrites all uses of test_expect_failure to use test_expect_success and rewrites the condition of what is tested, like this: test_expect_success 'test title' ' setup1 && setup2 && setup3 && ! this command should fail ' test_expect_failure is redefined to serve as a reminder that that test *should* succeed but due to a known breakage in git it currently does not pass. So if git-foo command should create a file 'bar' but you discovered a bug that it doesn't, you can write a test like this: test_expect_failure 'git-foo should create bar' ' rm -f bar && git foo && test -f bar ' This construct acts similar to test_expect_success, but instead of reporting "ok/FAIL" like test_expect_success does, the outcome is reported as "FIXED/still broken".

2007-08-01git-clone: aggressively optimize local clone behaviour.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+1
This changes the behaviour of cloning from a repository on the local machine, by defaulting to "-l" (use hardlinks to share files under .git/objects) and making "-l" a no-op. A new option, --no-hardlinks, is also added to cause file-level copy of files under .git/objects while still avoiding the normal "pack to pipe, then receive and index pack" network transfer overhead. The old behaviour of local cloning without -l nor -s is availble by specifying the source repository with the newly introduced file:///path/to/repo.git/ syntax (i.e. "same as network" cloning). * With --no-hardlinks (i.e. have all .git/objects/ copied via cpio) would not catch the source repository corruption, and also risks corrupted recipient repository if an alpha-particle hits memory cell while indexing and resolving deltas. As long as the recipient is created uncorrupted, you have a good back-up. * same-as-network is expensive, but it would catch the breakage of the source repository. It still risks corrupted recipient repository due to hardware failure. As long as the recipient is created uncorrupted, you have a good back-up. * The new default on the same filesystem, as long as the source repository is healthy, it is very likely that the recipient would be, too. Also it is very cheap. You do not get any back-up benefit, though. None of the method is resilient against the source repository corruption, so let's discount that from the comparison. Then the difference with and without --no-hardlinks matters primarily if you value the back-up benefit or not. If you want to use the cloned repository as a back-up, then it is cheaper to do a clone with --no-hardlinks and two git-fsck (source before clone, recipient after clone) than same-as-network clone, especially as you are likely to do a git-fsck on the recipient if you are so paranoid anyway. Which leads me to believe that being able to use file:/// is probably a good idea, if only for testability, but probably of little practical value. We default to hardlinked clone for everyday use, and paranoids can use --no-hardlinks as a way to make a back-up. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

This makes git-fetch over git native protocol to automatically decide to keep the downloaded pack if the fetch results in more than 100 objects, just like receive-pack invoked by git-push does. This logic is disabled when --keep is explicitly given from the command line, so that a very small clone still keeps the downloaded pack as before. The 100 threshold can be adjusted with fetch.unpacklimit configuration. We might want to introduce transfer.unpacklimit to consolidate the two unpacklimit variables, which will be a topic for the next patch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2007-01-12use 'init' instead of 'init-db' for shipped docs and toolsLibravatar Nicolas Pitre1-1/+1
While 'init-db' still is and probably will always remain a valid git command for obvious backward compatibility reasons, it would be a good idea to move shipped tools and docs to using 'init' instead. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2006-05-25t5500-fetch-pack: remove local (bashism) usage.Libravatar Eric Wong1-15/+15
None of the variables seem to conflict, so local was unnecessary. Also replaced ${var:pos:len} with the sed equivalent. Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
