2013-12-10fetch: add --update-shallow to accept refs that update .git/shallowLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+4
The same steps are done as in when --update-shallow is not given. The only difference is we now add all shallow commits in "ours" and "theirs" to .git/shallow (aka "step 8"). Signed-off-by: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-12-10clone: support remote shallow repositoryLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+6
Cloning from a shallow repository does not follow the "8 steps for new .git/shallow" because if it does we need to get through step 6 for all refs. That means commit walking down to the bottom. Instead the rule to create .git/shallow is simpler and, more importantly, cheap: if a shallow commit is found in the pack, it's probably used (i.e. reachable from some refs), so we add it. Others are dropped. One may notice this method seems flawed by the word "probably". A shallow commit may not be reachable from any refs at all if it's attached to an object island (a group of objects that are not reachable by any refs). If that object island is not complete, a new fetch request may send more objects to connect it to some ref. At that time, because we incorrectly installed the shallow commit in this island, the user will not see anything after that commit (fsck is still ok). This is not desired. Given that object islands are rare (C Git never sends such islands for security reasons) and do not really harm the repository integrity, a tradeoff is made to surprise the user occasionally but work faster everyday. A new option --strict could be added later that follows exactly the 8 steps. "git prune" can also learn to remove dangling objects _and_ the shallow commits that are attached to them from .git/shallow.

2013-09-09Merge branch 'jc/transport-do-not-use-connect-twice-in-fetch'Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+6
The auto-tag-following code in "git fetch" tries to reuse the same transport twice when the serving end does not cooperate and does not give tags that point to commits that are asked for as part of the primary transfer. Unfortunately, Git-aware transport helper interface is not designed to be used more than once, hence this does not work over smart-http transfer. * jc/transport-do-not-use-connect-twice-in-fetch: builtin/fetch.c: Fix a sparse warning fetch: work around "transport-take-over" hack fetch: refactor code that fetches leftover tags fetch: refactor code that prepares a transport fetch: rename file-scope global "transport" to "gtransport" t5802: add test for connect helper
2013-08-07fetch: work around "transport-take-over" hackLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+6
A Git-aware "connect" transport allows the "transport_take_over" to redirect generic transport requests like fetch(), push_refs() and get_refs_list() to the native Git transport handling methods. The take-over process replaces transport->data with a fake data that these method implementations understand. While this hack works OK for a single request, it breaks when the transport needs to make more than one requests. transport->data that used to hold necessary information for the specific helper to work correctly is destroyed during the take-over process. One codepath that this matters is "git fetch" in auto-follow mode; when it does not get all the tags that ought to point at the history it got (which can be determined by looking at the peeled tags in the initial advertisement) from the primary transfer, it internally makes a second request to complete the fetch. Because "take-over" hack has already destroyed the data necessary to talk to the transport helper by the time this happens, the second request cannot make a request to the helper to make another connection to fetch these additional tags. Mark such a transport as "cannot_reuse", and use a separate transport to perform the backfill fetch in order to work around this breakage. Note that this problem does not manifest itself when running t5802, because our upload-pack gives you all the necessary auto-followed tags during the primary transfer. You would need to step through "git fetch" in a debugger, stop immediately after the primary transfer finishes and writes these auto-followed tags, remove the tag references and repack/prune the repository to convince the "find-non-local-tags" procedure that the primary transfer failed to give us all the necessary tags, and then let it continue, in order to trigger the bug in the secondary transfer this patch fixes.

2013-07-22push --force-with-lease: implement logic to populate old_sha1_expect[]Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+4
This plugs the push_cas_option data collected by the command line option parser to the transport system with a new function apply_push_cas(), which is called after match_push_refs() has already been called. At this point, we know which remote we are talking to, and what remote refs we are going to update, so we can fill in the details that may have been missing from the command line, such as (1) what abbreviated refname the user gave us matches the actual refname at the remote; and (2) which remote-tracking branch in our local repository to read the value of the object to expect at the remote. to populate the old_sha1_expect[] field of each of the remote ref. As stated in the documentation, the use of remote-tracking branch as the default is a tentative one, and we may come up with a better logic as we gain experience. Still nobody uses this information, which is the topic of the next patch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-07-08cache.h: move remote/connect API out of itLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+1
The definition of "struct ref" in "cache.h", a header file so central to the system, always confused me. This structure is not about the local ref used by sha1-name API to name local objects. It is what refspecs are expanded into, after finding out what refs the other side has, to define what refs are updated after object transfer succeeds to what values. It belongs to "remote.h" together with "struct refspec". While we are at it, also move the types and functions related to the Git transport connection to a new header file connect.h Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-05-28clone: open a shortcut for connectivity checkLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-0/+2
In order to make sure the cloned repository is good, we run "rev-list --objects --not --all $new_refs" on the repository. This is expensive on large repositories. This patch attempts to mitigate the impact in this special case. In the "good" clone case, we only have one pack. If all of the following are met, we can be sure that all objects reachable from the new refs exist, which is the intention of running "rev-list ...": - all refs point to an object in the pack - there are no dangling pointers in any object in the pack - no objects in the pack point to objects outside the pack The second and third checks can be done with the help of index-pack as a slight variation of --strict check (which introduces a new condition for the shortcut: pack transfer must be used and the number of objects large enough to call index-pack). The first is checked in check_everything_connected after we get an "ok" from index-pack. "index-pack + new checks" is still faster than the current "index-pack + rev-list", which is the whole point of this patch. If any of the conditions fail, we fall back to the good old but expensive "rev-list ..". In that case it's even more expensive because we have to pay for the new checks in index-pack. But that should only happen when the other side is either buggy or malicious.

This shortcut does not apply to unpack-objects code path either because the number of objects must be small in order to trigger that code path.

2013-01-24push: introduce REJECT_FETCH_FIRST and REJECT_NEEDS_FORCELibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+2
When we push to update an existing ref, if: * the object at the tip of the remote is not a commit; or * the object we are pushing is not a commit, it won't be correct to suggest to fetch, integrate and push again, as the old and new objects will not "merge". We should explain that the push must be forced when there is a non-committish object is involved in such a case. If we do not have the current object at the tip of the remote, we do not even know that object, when fetched, is something that can be merged. In such a case, suggesting to pull first just like non-fast-forward case may not be technically correct, but in practice, most such failures are seen when you try to push your work to a branch without knowing that somebody else already pushed to update the same branch since you forked, so "pull first" would work as a suggestion most of the time. And if the object at the tip is not a commit, "pull first" will fail, without making any permanent damage. As a side effect, it also makes the error message the user will get during the next "push" attempt easier to understand, now the user is aware that a non-commit object is involved. In these cases, the current code already rejects such a push on the client end, but we used the same error and advice messages as the ones used when rejecting a non-fast-forward push, i.e. pull from there and integrate before pushing again. Introduce new rejection reasons and reword the messages appropriately. [jc: with help by Peff on message details] Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

The hook is run with two arguments specifying the name and location of the destination repository. Information about what is to be pushed is provided by sending lines of the following form to the hook's standard input: <local ref> SP <local sha1> SP <remote ref> SP <remote sha1> LF If the hook exits with a non-zero status, the push will be aborted. This will allow the script to determine if the push is acceptable based on the target repository and branch(es), the commits which are to be pushed, and even the source branches in some cases.

2012-03-26clean up struct ref's nonfastforward fieldLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+2
Each ref structure contains a "nonfastforward" field which is set during push to show whether the ref rewound history. Originally this was a single bit, but it was changed in f25950f (push: Provide situational hints for non-fast-forward errors) to an enum differentiating a non-ff of the current branch versus another branch. However, we never actually set the member according to the enum values, nor did we ever read it expecting anything but a boolean value. But we did use the side effect of declaring the enum constants to store those values in a totally different integer variable. The code as-is isn't buggy, but the enum declaration inside "struct ref" is somewhat misleading. Let's convert nonfastforward back into a single bit, and then define the NON_FF_* constants closer to where they would be used (they are returned via the "int *nonfastforward" parameter to transport_push, so we can define them there).

2011-05-19refactor refs_from_alternate_cb to allow passing extra dataLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
The foreach_alt_odb function triggers a callback for each alternate object db we have, with room for a single void pointer as data. Currently, we always call refs_from_alternate_cb as the callback function, and then pass another callback (to receive each ref individually) as the void pointer. This has two problems: 1. C technically forbids stuffing a function pointer into a "void *". In practice, this probably doesn't matter on any architectures git runs on, but it never hurts to follow the letter of the law. 2. There is no room for an extra data pointer. Indeed, the alternate_ref_fn that refs_from_alternate_cb calls takes a void* for data, but we always pass it NULL. Instead, let's properly stuff our function pointer into a data struct, which also leaves room for an extra caller-supplied data pointer. And to keep things simple for existing callers, let's make a for_each_alternate_ref function that takes care of creating the extra struct.

2009-11-17Allow fetch to modify refsLibravatar Daniel Barkalow1-2/+39
This allows the transport to use the null sha1 for a ref reported to be present in the remote repository to indicate that a ref exists but its actual value is presently unknown and will be set if the objects are fetched. Also adds documentation to the API to specify exactly what the methods should do and how they should interpret arguments.

2009-10-30fetch: Allow transport -v -v -v to set verbosity to 3Libravatar Shawn O. Pearce1-1/+1
Helpers might want a higher level of verbosity than just +1 (the porcelain default setting) and +2 (-v -v). Expand the field to allow verbosity in the range -1..3. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.

* db/vcs-helper: Makefile: remove remnant of separate http/https/ftp helpers Use a clearer style to issue commands to remote helpers Make the "traditionally-supported" URLs a special case Makefile: install hardlinks for git-remote-<scheme> supported by libcurl if possible Makefile: do not link three copies of git-remote-* programs Makefile: git-http-fetch does not need expat http-fetch: Fix Makefile dependancies Add transport native helper executables to .gitignore git-http-fetch: not a builtin Use an external program to implement fetching with curl Add support for external programs for handling native fetches
2009-09-03Make the "traditionally-supported" URLs a special caseLibravatar Daniel Barkalow1-1/+1
Instead of trying to make http://, https://, and ftp:// URLs indicative of some sort of pattern of transport helper usage, make them a special case which runs the "curl" helper, and leave the mechanism by which arbitrary helpers will be chosen entirely to future work.
