Even when "git pull --rebase=preserve" (and the underlying "git rebase --preserve") can complete without creating any new commit (i.e. fast-forwards), it still insisted on having a usable ident information (read: user.email is set correctly), which was less than nice.

JGit can show a fake ref "capabilities^{}" to "git fetch" when it does not advertise any refs, but "git fetch" was not prepared to see such an advertisement. When the other side disconnects without giving any ref advertisement, we used to say "there may not be a repository at that URL", but we may have seen other advertisement like "shallow" and ".have" in which case we definitely know that a repository is there.

2016-09-15format-patch: show base info before email signatureLibravatar Josh Triplett1-6/+27
Any text below the "-- " for the email signature gets treated as part of the signature, and many mail clients will trim it from the quoted text for a reply. Move it above the signature, so people can reply to it more easily. Similarly, when producing the patch as a MIME attachment, the original code placed the base info after the attached part, which would be discarded. Move the base info to the end of the part, still inside the part boundary. Add tests for the exact format of the email signature, and add tests to ensure that the base info appears before the email signature when producing a plain-text output, and that it appears before the part boundary when producing a MIME attachment.

2016-09-13init: reset cached config when entering new repoLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+32
After we copy the templates into place, we re-read the config in case we copied in a default config file. But since git_config() is backed by a cache these days, it's possible that the call will not actually touch the filesystem at all; we need to tell it that something has changed behind the scenes. Note that we also need to reset the shared_repository config. At first glance, it seems like this should probably just be folded into git_config_clear(). But unfortunately that is not quite right. The shared repository value may come from config, _or_ it may have been set manually. So only the caller who knows whether or not they set it is the one who can clear it (and indeed, if you _do_ put it into git_config_clear(), then many tests fail, as we have to clear the config cache any time we set a new config variable). There are three tests here. The first two actually pass already, though it's largely luck: they just don't happen to actually read any config before we enter the new repo. But the third one does fail without this patch; we look at core.sharedrepository while creating the directory, but need to make sure the value from the template config overrides it.

2016-09-13config: only read .git/config from configured reposLibravatar Jeff King3-3/+19
When git_config() runs, it looks in the system, user-wide, and repo-level config files. It gets the latter by calling git_pathdup(), which in turn calls get_git_dir(). If we haven't set up the git repository yet, this may simply return ".git", and we will look at ".git/config". This seems like it would be helpful (presumably we haven't set up the repository yet, so it tries to find it), but it turns out to be a bad idea for a few reasons: - it's not sufficient, and therefore hides bugs in a confusing way. Config will be respected if commands are run from the top-level of the working tree, but not from a subdirectory. - it's not always true that we haven't set up the repository _yet_; we may not want to do it at all. For instance, if you run "git init /some/path" from inside another repository, it should not load config from the existing repository. - there might be a path ".git/config", but it is not the actual repository we would find via setup_git_directory(). This may happen, e.g., if you are storing a git repository inside another git repository, but have munged one of the files in such a way that the inner repository is not valid (e.g., by removing HEAD). We have at least two bugs of the second type in git-init, introduced by ae5f677 (lazily load core.sharedrepository, 2016-03-11). It causes init to use git_configset(), which loads all of the config, including values from the current repo (if any). This shows up in two ways: 1. If we happen to be in an existing repository directory, we'll read and respect core.sharedrepository from it, even though it should have no bearing on the new repository. A new test in t1301 covers this. 2. Similarly, if we're in an existing repo that sets core.logallrefupdates, that will cause init to fail to set it in a newly created repository (because it thinks that the user's templates already did so). A new test in t0001 covers this. We also need to adjust an existing test in t1302, which gives another example of why this patch is an improvement. That test creates an embedded repository with a bogus core.repositoryformatversion of "99". It wants to make sure that we actually stop at the bogus repo rather than continuing upward to find the outer repo. So it checks that "git config core.repositoryformatversion" returns 99. But that only works because we blindly read ".git/config", even though we _know_ we're in a repository whose vintage we do not understand. After this patch, we avoid reading config from the unknown vintage repository at all, which is a safer choice. But we need to tweak the test, since core.repositoryformatversion will not return 99; it will claim that it could not find the variable at all.

2016-09-13diff: always try to set up the repositoryLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+20
If we see an explicit "--no-index", we do not bother calling setup_git_directory_gently() at all. This means that we may miss out on reading repo-specific config. It's arguable whether this is correct or not. If we were designing from scratch, making "git diff --no-index" completely ignore the repository makes some sense. But we are nowhere near scratch, so let's look at the existing behavior: 1. If you're in the top-level of a repository and run an explicit "diff --no-index", the config subsystem falls back to reading ".git/config", and we will respect repo config. 2. If you're in a subdirectory of a repository, then we still try to read ".git/config", but it generally doesn't exist. So "diff --no-index" there does not respect repo config. 3. If you have $GIT_DIR set in the environment, we read and respect $GIT_DIR/config, 4. If you run "git diff /tmp/foo /tmp/bar" to get an implicit no-index, we _do_ run the repository setup, and set $GIT_DIR (or respect an existing $GIT_DIR variable). We find the repo config no matter where we started, and respect it. So we already respect the repository config in a number of common cases, and case (2) is the only one that does not. And at least one of our tests, t4034, depends on case (1) behaving as it does now (though it is just incidental, not an explicit test for this behavior). So let's bring case (2) in line with the others by always running the repository setup, even with an explicit "--no-index". We shouldn't need to change anything else, as the implicit case already handles the prefix. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2016-09-13diff: handle --no-index prefixes consistentlyLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+18
If we see an explicit "git diff --no-index ../foo ../bar", then we do not set up the git repository at all (we already know we are in --no-index mode, so do not have to check "are we in a repository?"), and hence have no "prefix" within the repository. A patch generated by this command will have the filenames "a/../foo" and "b/../bar", no matter which directory we are in with respect to any repository. However, in the implicit case, where we notice that the files are outside the repository, we will have chdir()'d to the top-level of the repository. We then feed the prefix back to the diff machinery. As a result, running the same diff from a subdirectory will result in paths that look like "a/subdir/../../foo". Besides being unnecessarily long, this may also be confusing to the user: they don't care about the subdir or the repository at all; it's just where they happened to be when running the command. We should treat this the same as the explicit --no-index case. One way to address this would be to chdir() back to the original path before running our diff. However, that's a bit hacky, as we would also need to adjust $GIT_DIR, which could be a relative path from our top-level. Instead, we can reuse the diff machinery's RELATIVE_NAME option, which automatically strips off the prefix. Note that this _also_ restricts the diff to this relative prefix, but that's OK for our purposes: we queue our own diff pairs manually, and do not rely on that part of the diff code.

2016-09-13patch-id: use RUN_SETUP_GENTLYLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+14
Patch-id does not require a repository because it is just processing the incoming diff on stdin, but it may look at git config for keys like patchid.stable. Even though we do not setup_git_directory(), this works from the top-level of a repository because we blindly look at ".git/config" in this case. But as the included test demonstrates, it does not work from a subdirectory. We can fix it by using RUN_SETUP_GENTLY. We do not take any filenames from the user on the command line, so there's no need to adjust them via prefix_filename().

2016-09-13hash-object: always try to set up the git repositoryLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+11
When "hash-object" is run without "-w", we don't need to be in a git repository at all; we can just hash the object and write its sha1 to stdout. However, if we _are_ in a git repository, we would want to know that so we can follow the normal rules for respecting config, .gitattributes, etc. This happens to work at the top-level of a git repository because we blindly read ".git/config", but as the included test shows, it does not work when you are in a subdirectory. The solution is to just do a "gentle" setup in this case. We already take care to use prefix_filename() on any filename arguments we get (to handle the "-w" case), so we don't need to do anything extra to handle the side effects of repo setup. An alternative would be to specify RUN_SETUP_GENTLY for this command in git.c, and then die if "-w" is set but we are not in a repository. However, the error messages generated at the time of setup_git_directory() are more detailed, so it's better to find out which mode we are in, and then call the appropriate function.

2016-09-12pack-objects: use reachability bitmap index when generating non-stdout packLibravatar Kirill Smelkov2-1/+25
Starting from 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects) if a repository has bitmap index, pack-objects can nicely speedup "Counting objects" graph traversal phase. That however was done only for case when resultant pack is sent to stdout, not written into a file. The reason here is for on-disk repack by default we want: - to produce good pack (with bitmap index not-yet-packed objects are emitted to pack in suboptimal order). - to use more robust pack-generation codepath (avoiding possible bugs in bitmap code and possible bitmap index corruption). Jeff King further explains: The reason for this split is that pack-objects tries to determine how "careful" it should be based on whether we are packing to disk or to stdout. Packing to disk implies "git repack", and that we will likely delete the old packs after finishing. We want to be more careful (so as not to carry forward a corruption, and to generate a more optimal pack), and we presumably run less frequently and can afford extra CPU. Whereas packing to stdout implies serving a remote via "git fetch" or "git push". This happens more frequently (e.g., a server handling many fetching clients), and we assume the receiving end takes more responsibility for verifying the data. But this isn't always the case. One might want to generate on-disk packfiles for a specialized object transfer. Just using "--stdout" and writing to a file is not optimal, as it will not generate the matching pack index. So it would be useful to have some way of overriding this heuristic: to tell pack-objects that even though it should generate on-disk files, it is still OK to use the reachability bitmaps to do the traversal. So we can teach pack-objects to use bitmap index for initial object counting phase when generating resultant pack file too: - if we take care to not let it be activated under git-repack: See above about repack robustness and not forward-carrying corruption. - if we know bitmap index generation is not enabled for resultant pack: The current code has singleton bitmap_git, so it cannot work simultaneously with two bitmap indices. We also want to avoid (at least with current implementation) generating bitmaps off of bitmaps. The reason here is: when generating a pack, not-yet-packed objects will be emitted into pack in suboptimal order and added to tail of the bitmap as "extended entries". When the resultant pack + some new objects in associated repository are in turn used to generate another pack with bitmap, the situation repeats: new objects are again not emitted optimally and just added to bitmap tail - not in recency order. So the pack badness can grow over time when at each step we have bitmapped pack + some other objects. That's why we want to avoid generating bitmaps off of bitmaps, not to let pack badness grow. - if we keep pack reuse enabled still only for "send-to-stdout" case: Because pack-to-file needs to generate index for destination pack, and currently on pack reuse raw entries are directly written out to the destination pack by write_reused_pack(), bypassing needed for pack index generation bookkeeping done by regular codepath in write_one() and friends. ( In the future we might teach pack-reuse code about cases when index also needs to be generated for resultant pack and remove pack-reuse-only-for-stdout limitation ) This way for pack-objects -> file we get nice speedup: erp5.git[1] (~230MB) extracted from ~ 5GB lab.nexedi.com backup repository managed by git-backup[2] via time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --revs erp5pack before: 37.2s after: 26.2s And for `git repack -adb` packed git.git time echo 5c589a73 | git pack-objects --revs gitpack before: 7.1s after: 3.6s i.e. it can be 30% - 50% speedup for pack extraction. git-backup extracts many packs on repositories restoration. That was my initial motivation for the patch. [1] https://lab.nexedi.com/nexedi/erp5 [2] https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/git-backup NOTE Jeff also suggests that pack.useBitmaps was probably a mistake to introduce originally. This way we are not adding another config point, but instead just always default to-file pack-objects not to use bitmap index: Tools which need to generate on-disk packs with using bitmap, can pass --use-bitmap-index explicitly. And git-repack does never pass --use-bitmap-index, so this way we can be sure regular on-disk repacking remains robust. NOTE2 `git pack-objects --stdout >file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack` is much slower than `git pack-objects file.pack`. Extracting erp5.git pack from lab.nexedi.com backup repository: $ time echo 0186ac99 | git pack-objects --stdout --revs >erp5pack-stdout.pack real 0m22.309s user 0m21.148s sys 0m0.932s $ time git index-pack erp5pack-stdout.pack real 0m50.873s <-- more than 2 times slower than time to generate pack itself! user 0m49.300s sys 0m1.360s So the time for `pack-object --stdout >file.pack` + `index-pack file.pack` is 72s, while `pack-objects file.pack` which does both pack and index is 27s. And even `pack-objects --no-use-bitmap-index file.pack` is 37s. Jeff explains: The packfile does not carry the sha1 of the objects. A receiving index-pack has to compute them itself, including inflating and applying all of the deltas. that's why for `git-backup restore` we want to teach `git pack-objects file.pack` to use bitmaps instead of using `git pack-objects --stdout >file.pack` + `git index-pack file.pack`.

2016-09-12pack-objects: respect --local/--honor-pack-keep/--incremental when bitmap is ↵Libravatar Kirill Smelkov1-0/+92
in use Since 6b8fda2d (pack-objects: use bitmaps when packing objects) there are two codepaths in pack-objects: with & without using bitmap reachability index. However add_object_entry_from_bitmap(), despite its non-bitmapped counterpart add_object_entry(), in no way does check for whether --local or --honor-pack-keep or --incremental should be respected. In non-bitmapped codepath this is handled in want_object_in_pack(), but bitmapped codepath has simply no such checking at all. The bitmapped codepath however was allowing to pass in all those options and with bitmap indices still being used under such conditions - potentially giving wrong output (e.g. including objects from non-local or .keep'ed pack). We can easily fix this by noting the following: when an object comes to add_object_entry_from_bitmap() it can come for two reasons: 1. entries coming from main pack covered by bitmap index, and 2. object coming from, possibly alternate, loose or other packs. "2" can be already handled by want_object_in_pack() and to cover "1" we can teach want_object_in_pack() to expect that *found_pack can be non-NULL, meaning calling client already found object's pack entry. In want_object_in_pack() we care to start the checks from already found pack, if we have one, this way determining the answer right away in case neither --local nor --honour-pack-keep are active. In particular, as p5310-pack-bitmaps.sh shows (3 consecutive runs), we do not do harm to served-with-bitmap clones performance-wise: Test 56dfeb62 this tree ----------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 9.08(8.20+0.25) 9.09(8.14+0.32) +0.1% 5310.3: simulated clone 1.92(2.12+0.08) 1.93(2.12+0.09) +0.5% 5310.4: simulated fetch 0.82(1.07+0.04) 0.82(1.06+0.04) +0.0% 5310.6: partial bitmap 1.96(2.42+0.13) 1.95(2.40+0.15) -0.5% Test 56dfeb62 this tree ----------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 9.11(8.16+0.32) 9.11(8.19+0.28) +0.0% 5310.3: simulated clone 1.93(2.14+0.07) 1.92(2.11+0.10) -0.5% 5310.4: simulated fetch 0.82(1.06+0.04) 0.82(1.04+0.05) +0.0% 5310.6: partial bitmap 1.95(2.38+0.16) 1.94(2.39+0.14) -0.5% Test 56dfeb62 this tree ----------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 9.13(8.17+0.31) 9.07(8.13+0.28) -0.7% 5310.3: simulated clone 1.92(2.13+0.07) 1.91(2.12+0.06) -0.5% 5310.4: simulated fetch 0.82(1.08+0.03) 0.82(1.08+0.03) +0.0% 5310.6: partial bitmap 1.96(2.43+0.14) 1.96(2.42+0.14) +0.0% with delta timings showing they are all within noise from run to run. In the general case we do not want to call find_pack_entry_one() more than once, because it is expensive. This patch splits the loop in want_object_in_pack() into two parts: finding the object and seeing if it impacts our choice to include it in the pack. We may call the inexpensive want_found_object() twice, but we will never call find_pack_entry_one() if we do not need to.

2016-09-11cat-file: support --textconv/--filters in batch modeLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+10

2016-09-11cat-file --textconv/--filters: allow specifying the path separatelyLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+20
There are circumstances when it is relatively easy to figure out the object name for a given path, but not the name of the containing tree. For example, when looking at a diff generated by Git, the object names are recorded, but not the revision. As a matter of fact, the revisions from which the diff was generated may not even exist locally. In such a case, the user would have to generate a fake revision just to be able to use --textconv or --filters. Let's simplify this dramatically, because we do not really need that revision at all: all we care about is that we know the path. In the scenario described above, we do know the path, and we just want to specify it separately from the object name.

2016-09-11cat-file: introduce the --filters optionLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+34
The --filters option applies the convert_to_working_tree() filter for the path when showing the contents of a regular file blob object; the contents are written out as-is for other types of objects. This feature comes in handy when a 3rd-party tool wants to work with the contents of files from past revisions as if they had been checked out, but without detouring via temporary files.

2016-09-09connect: advertized capability is not a refLibravatar Jonathan Tan1-0/+40
When cloning an empty repository served by standard git, "git clone" produces the following reassuring message: $ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty Cloning into 'empty'... warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository. Checking connectivity... done. Meanwhile when cloning an empty repository served by JGit, the output is more haphazard: $ git clone git://localhost/tmp/empty Cloning into 'empty'... Checking connectivity... done. warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout. This is a common command to run immediately after creating a remote repository as preparation for adding content to populate it and pushing. The warning is confusing and needlessly worrying. The cause is that, since v3.1.0.201309270735-rc1~22 (Advertise capabilities with no refs in upload service., 2013-08-08), JGit's ref advertisement includes a ref named capabilities^{} to advertise its capabilities on, while git's ref advertisement is empty in this case. This allows the client to learn about the server's capabilities and is needed, for example, for fetch-by-sha1 to work when no refs are advertised. This also affects "ls-remote". For example, against an empty repository served by JGit: $ git ls-remote git://localhost/tmp/empty 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 capabilities^{} Git advertises the same capabilities^{} ref in its ref advertisement for push but since it never did so for fetch, the client didn't need to handle this case.

The tempfile (hence its user lockfile) API lets the caller to open a file descriptor to a temporary file, write into it and then finalize it by first closing the filehandle and then either removing or renaming the temporary file. When the process spawns a subprocess after obtaining the file descriptor, and if the subprocess has not exited when the attempt to remove or rename is made, the last step fails on Windows, because the subprocess has the file descriptor still open. Open tempfile with O_CLOEXEC flag to avoid this (on Windows, this is mapped to O_NOINHERIT). * bw/mingw-avoid-inheriting-fd-to-lockfile: mingw: ensure temporary file handles are not inherited by child processes t6026-merge-attr: child processes must not inherit index.lock handles
