The update hook is no longer the correct place to generate emails; there
is now the hooks/post-receive script which is run automatically after a
ref has been updated.
This patch is to make use of that new location, and to address some
faults in the old update hook.
The primary problem in the conversion was that in the update hook, the
ref has not actually been changed, but is about to be. In the
post-receive hook the ref has already been updated. That meant that
where we previously had lines like:
git rev-list --not --all
would now give the wrong list because "--all" in the post-receive hook
includes the ref that we are making the email for. This made it more
difficult to show only the new revisions added by this update.
The solution is not pretty; however it does work and doesn't need any
changes to git-rev-list itself. It also fixes (more accurately: reduces
the likelihood of) a nasty race when another update occurs while this
script is running. The solution, in short, looks like this (see the
source code for a longer explanation)
git rev-parse --not --all | grep -v $(git rev-parse $refname) |
git rev-list --pretty --stdin $oldrev..$newrev
This uses git-rev-parse followed by grep to filter out the revision of
the ref in question before it gets to rev-list and inhibits the output
of itself. By using $(git rev-parse $revname) rather than $newrev as the
filter, it also takes care of the situation where another update to the
same ref has been made since $refname was $newrev.
The second problem that is addressed is that of tags inhibiting the
correct output of an update email. Consider this, with somebranch and
sometag pointing at the same revision:
git push origin somebranch
git push origin sometag
That would work fine; the push of the branch would generate an email
containing all the new commits introduced by the update, then the push
of the tag would generate the shortlog formatted tag email. Now
consider:
git push origin sometag
git push origin somebranch
When some branch comes to run its "--not --all" line, it will find
sometag, and filter those commits from the email - leaving nothing.
That meant that those commits would not show (in full) on any email.
The fix is to not use "--all", and instead use "--branches" in the
git-rev-parse command.
Other changes
* Lose the monstrous one-giant-script layout and put things in easy to
digest functions. This makes it much easier to find the place you
need to change if you wanted to customise the output. I've also
tried to write more verbose comments for the same reason. The hook
script is big, mainly because of all the different cases that it has
to handle, so being easy to navigate is important.
* All uses of "git-command" changed to "git command", to cope better
if a user decided not to install all the hard links to git;
* Cleaned up some of the English in the email
* The fact that the receive hook makes the ref available also allows me
to use Shawn Pearce's fantastic suggestion that an annotated tag can
be parsed with git-for-each-ref. This removes the potentially
non-portable use of "<<<" heredocs and the nasty messing around with
"date" to convert numbers of seconds UTC to a real date
* Deletions are now caught and notified (briefly)
* To help with debugging, I've retained the command line mode from the
update hook; but made it so that the output is not emailed, it's just
printed to the screen. This could then be redirected if the user
wanted
* Removed the "Hello" from the beginning of the email - it's just
noise, and no one seriously has their day made happier by "friendly"
programs
* The fact that it doesn't rely on repository state as an indicator any
more means that it's far more stable in its output; hopefully the
same arguments will always generate the same email - even if the
repository changes in the future. This means you can easily recreate
an email should you want to.
* Included Jim Meyering's envelope sender option for the sendmail call
* The hook is now so big that it was inappropriate to copy it
to every repository by keeping it in the templates directory.
Instead, I've put a comment saying to look in contrib/hooks, and
given an example of calling the script from that template hook. The
advantage of calling the script residing at some fixed location is
that if a future package of git included a bug fixed version of the
script, that would be picked up automatically, and the user would not
have to notice and manually copy the new hook to every repository
that uses it.

The update hook's only job is to decide is a particular update
is allowed or not. It was not the right place to send out
update notification e-mails from to begin with, as the final
stage of updating refs can fail after this hook runs.

It was annoying to always have the first email from a project be from
the "Unnamed repository; edit this file to name it for gitweb project";
just because it's so easy to forget to set it.
This patch checks to see if the description file is still default (or
empty) and aborts if so - allowing you to fix the problem before sending
out silly looking emails to every developer.

Previously git-describe would output lines of the form
v1.1.1-gf509d56
The update hook found the dash and stripped it off using
sed 's/-g.*//'
The remainder was then used as the previous tag name.
However, git-describe has changed format. The output is now of the form
v1.1.1-23-gf509d56
The above sed fragment doesn't strip the middle "-23", and so the
previous tag name used would be "v1.1.1-23". This is incorrect.
Since the hook script was written, git-describe now gained support for
"--abbrev=0", which it uses as a special flag to tell it not to output
anything other than the nearest tag name. This patch fixes the problem,
and prevents any future recurrence by using this new flag rather than
sed to find the previous tag.

I find it difficult to see compiler warnings amongst the massive
spewing produced by GNU make as it works through our productions.
This is especially true if CFLAGS winds up being rather long, due
to a large number of -W options being enabled and due to a number
of -D options being configured/required by my platform.
By defining QUIET_MAKE (e.g. make QUIET_MAKE=YesPlease) during
compilation users will get a less verbose output, such as:
...
CC builtin-grep.c
builtin-grep.c:187: warning: 'external_grep' defined but not used
CC builtin-init-db.c
CC builtin-log.c
CC builtin-ls-files.c
CC builtin-ls-tree.c
...
The verbose (normal make) output is still the default.

44478d99ee0 introduced a filter using "git-rev-parse --not --all" to the
log display to prevent the display of revisions already in the
repository. However, the table of contents generation didn't get that
same update.
This patch fixes that. The table of contents before the log and the log
now both display the same list of revisions.

If you were issuing emails for two branches, and one merged the other,
you would get the same log messages appearing in two separate emails.
e.g. A working repository, where the last push to central was done at
the revision marked "B", after which two branches were developed
further.
* -- B -- 1 -- 1 -- M (branch1)
\ /
2 -- 2 -- 2 (branch2)
Now imagine that branch2 is pushed to the email-generating repository;
an email containing all the "2" revisions would be sent. Now, let's say
branch1 is pushed, the old update hook would run
git-rev-list $newrev ^$baserev
Where $newrev would be "M" and $baserev would be "B". This list
includes all the "2" revisions as well as all the "1" revisions.
This patch addresses this problem by using
git-rev-parse --not --all | git-rev-list --stdin $newrev ^$baserev
To inhibit the display of all revisions that are already in the
repository.

In a repository with a large number of refs, the following command line
could easily overflow the command line size limitations
git-rev-list $newref $(git-rev-parse --not --all)
Fortunately, git-rev-list already has the means to cope with this
situation with the --stdin switch
git-rev-parse --not --all | git-rev-list --stdin $newref
Which is exactly what this patch does.

I know it's only an example, but having this might save someone else the
trouble of writing an enhanced version for themselves.
It basically does the same job as the old update hook, but with these
differences:
* The recipients list is read from the repository config file from
hooks.mailinglist
* Updating unannotated tags can be allowed by setting
hooks.allowunannotated
* Announcement emails (via annotated tag creation) can be sent to a
different mailing list by setting hooks.announcelist
* Output email is more verbose and generates specific content depending
on whether the ref is a tag, an annotated tag, a branch, or a
tracking branch
* The email is easier to filter; the subject line is prefixed with
[SCM] and a project description pulled from the "description" file
* It catches (and displays differently) branch updates that are
performed with a --force
Obviously, it's nothing that clever - it's the update hook I use on my
repositories but I've tried to keep it general, and tried to make the
output always relevant to the type of update.

I got bitten because in the UK (where one would expect 1970-01-01 00:00
to be UTC 0) some politicians decided to mess around with daylight
savings time from 1968 to 1971; it was permanently BST (+0100). That
means that on my computer the following is true:
$ date --date="1970-01-01 00:00" +"%F %T %z (%Z)"
1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0100 (BST)
This of course means that the --date argument to date is specified in
local time, not UTC. So when the hooks--update script does this:
date=$(date --date="1970-01-01 00:00:00 $ts seconds")
It's actually saying (in my timezone) "1970-01-01 01:00:00 UTC" + $ts.
Clearly this is wrong. The UNIX epoch started at midnight UTC not 1am
UTC.
This leads to the tagged time in hooks--update being shown as one hour
earlier than the true tagged time (in my timezone). The problem would
be worse for other timezones. For a +1300 timezone on 1970-01-01, the
tagged time would be 13 hours earlier. Oops.
The solution is to force the reference time to UTC, which is what this
patch does. In my timezone:
$ date --date="1970-01-01 00:00 +0000" +"%F %T %z (%Z)"
1970-01-01 01:00:00 +0100 (BST)
Much better.

After checking to see if the commit message already has the target
signed-off-by (for example in --amend commits), this patch generates a
signed off by line from the repository owner and adds it to the commit
message.
Based on Johannes Schindelin's earlier patch to perform the same
function.
Originally, this was done in the pre-commit hook but Junio pointed out
that the commit-msg hook allows the message to be edited. This has the
aditional advantage that the commit-msg hook gets passed the name of the
message file as a parameter, so it doesn't have to figure out GIT_DIR for
itself.

The example hook barfs on the initial import. Ideally it should
produce a diff from an empty tree, but for now let's stop at
squelching the bogus error message. Often an initial import
involves tons of badly formatted files from foreign SCM, so not
complaining about them like this patch does might actually be a
better idea than enforcing the "Perfect Patch" format on them.

This is the update hook we use in all our git-repos.
It has some improvements over the original version, namely:
* Don't send every commit since dawn of time when adding a new tag.
* When updating an annotated tag, just send the diffs since the last tag.
* Add diffstat output for 'normal' commits (top) and annotated tags (bottom).
* Block un-annotated tags in shared repos.
I'm a bit uncertain about that last one, but it demonstrates how to
disallow updates of a ref which we use, so I kept it.
Note that git-describe is needed for the "changes since last annotated tag"
thing to work.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.

Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
