2015-11-05hideRefs: add support for matching full refsLibravatar Lukas Fleischer1-5/+8
In addition to matching stripped refs, one can now add hideRefs patterns that the full (unstripped) ref is matched against. To distinguish between stripped and full matches, those new patterns must be prefixed with a circumflex (^). This commit also removes support for the undocumented and unintended hideRefs settings ".have" (suppressing all "have" lines) and "capabilities^{}" (suppressing the capabilities line).

2015-05-25each_ref_fn: change to take an object_id parameterLibravatar Michael Haggerty1-5/+13
Change typedef each_ref_fn to take a "const struct object_id *oid" parameter instead of "const unsigned char *sha1". To aid this transition, implement an adapter that can be used to wrap old-style functions matching the old typedef, which is now called "each_ref_sha1_fn"), and make such functions callable via the new interface. This requires the old function and its cb_data to be wrapped in a "struct each_ref_fn_sha1_adapter", and that object to be used as the cb_data for an adapter function, each_ref_fn_adapter(). This is an enormous diff, but most of it consists of simple, mechanical changes to the sites that call any of the "for_each_ref" family of functions. Subsequent to this change, the call sites can be rewritten one by one to use the new interface.

2015-05-22upload-pack: optionally allow fetching reachable sha1Libravatar Fredrik Medley1-4/+18
With uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant configuration option set on the server side, "git fetch" can make a request with a "want" line that names an object that has not been advertised (likely to have been obtained out of band or from a submodule pointer). Only objects reachable from the branch tips, i.e. the union of advertised branches and branches hidden by transfer.hideRefs, will be processed. Note that there is an associated cost of having to walk back the history to check the reachability. This feature can be used when obtaining the content of a certain commit, for which the sha1 is known, without the need of cloning the whole repository, especially if a shallow fetch is used. Useful cases are e.g. repositories containing large files in the history, fetching only the needed data for a submodule checkout, when sharing a sha1 without telling which exact branch it belongs to and in Gerrit, if you think in terms of commits instead of change numbers. (The Gerrit case has already been solved through allowTipSHA1InWant as every Gerrit change has a ref.)

2015-03-12upload-pack: do not check NULL return of lookup_unknown_objectLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+0
We check whether the return value of lookup_unknown_object is NULL, but some code paths dereference it before our check. This turns out not to be capable of causing a segfault, though. The lookup_unknown_object function will never return NULL, since the whole point is to allocate an object struct if it does not find an existing one. So the code here is not wrong, it is just confusing. Let's just drop the NULL check. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2015-03-12upload-pack: fix transfer.hiderefs over smart-httpLibravatar Jeff King1-4/+10
When upload-pack advertises the refs (either for a normal, non-stateless request, or for the initial contact in a stateless one), we call for_each_ref with the send_ref function as its callback. send_ref, in turn, calls mark_our_ref, which checks whether the ref is hidden, and sets OUR_REF or HIDDEN_REF on the object as appropriate. If it is hidden, mark_our_ref also returns "1" to signal send_ref that the ref should not be advertised. If we are not advertising refs, (i.e., the follow-up invocation by an http client to send its "want" lines), we use mark_our_ref directly as a callback to for_each_ref. Its marking does the right thing, but when it then returns "1" to for_each_ref, the latter interprets this as an error and stops iterating. As a result, we skip marking all of the refs that come lexicographically after it. Any "want" lines from the client asking for those objects will fail, as they were not properly marked with OUR_REF. To solve this, we introduce a wrapper callback around mark_our_ref which always returns 0 (even if the ref is hidden, we want to keep iterating). We also tweak the signature of mark_our_ref to exclude unnecessary parameters that were present only to conform to the callback interface. This should make it less likely for somebody to accidentally use it as a callback in the future. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2014-12-29pack-objects: use --objects-edge-aggressive for shallow reposLibravatar brian m. carlson1-1/+3
When fetching into or pushing from a shallow repository, we want to aggressively mark edges as uninteresting, since this decreases the pack size. However, aggressively marking edges can negatively affect performance on large non-shallow repositories with lots of refs. Teach pack-objects a --shallow option to indicate that we're pushing from or fetching into a shallow repository. Use --objects-edge-aggressive only for shallow repositories and otherwise use --objects-edge, which performs better in the general case. Update the callers to pass the --shallow option when they are dealing with a shallow repository.

2014-10-15refs.c: change resolve_ref_unsafe reading argument to be a flags fieldLibravatar Ronnie Sahlberg1-1/+1
resolve_ref_unsafe takes a boolean argument for reading (a nonexistent ref resolves successfully for writing but not for reading). Change this to be a flags field instead, and pass the new constant RESOLVE_REF_READING when we want this behaviour. While at it, swap two of the arguments in the function to put output arguments at the end. As a nice side effect, this ensures that we can catch callers that were unaware of the new API so they can be audited. Give the wrapper functions resolve_refdup and read_ref_full the same treatment for consistency.

Before cdab485 (upload-pack: delegate rev walking in shallow fetch to pack-objects - 2013-08-16) upload-pack does not write to the source repository. cdab485 starts to write $GIT_DIR/shallow_XXXXXX if it's a shallow fetch, so the source repo must be writable. git:// servers do not need write access to repos and usually don't have it, which means cdab485 breaks shallow clone over git:// Instead of using a temporary file as the media for shallow points, we can send them over stdin to pack-objects as well.

2014-02-27shallow: automatically clean up shallow tempfilesLibravatar Jeff King1-6/+1
We sometimes write tempfiles of the form "shallow_XXXXXX" during fetch/push operations with shallow repositories. Under normal circumstances, we clean up the result when we are done. However, we do no take steps to clean up after ourselves when we exit due to die() or signal death. This patch teaches the tempfile creation code to register handlers to clean up after ourselves. To handle this, we change the ownership semantics of the filename returned by setup_temporary_shallow. It now keeps a copy of the filename itself, and returns only a const pointer to it. We can also do away with explicit tempfile removal in the callers. They all exit not long after finishing with the file, so they can rely on the auto-cleanup, simplifying the code. Note that we keep things simple and maintain only a single filename to be cleaned. This is sufficient for the current caller, but we future-proof it with a die("BUG").

2013-12-10make the sender advertise shallow commits to the receiverLibravatar Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy1-2/+4
If either receive-pack or upload-pack is called on a shallow repository, shallow commits (*) will be sent after the ref advertisement (but before the packet flush), so that the receiver has the full "shape" of the sender's commit graph. This will be needed for the receiver to update its .git/shallow if necessary. This breaks the protocol for all clients trying to push to a shallow repo, or fetch from one. Which is basically the same end result as today's "is_repository_shallow() && die()" in receive-pack and upload-pack. New clients will be made aware of shallow upstream and can make use of this information. The sender must send all shallow commits that are sent in the following pack. It may send more shallow commits than necessary. upload-pack for example may choose to advertise no shallow commits if it knows in advance that the pack it's going to send contains no shallow commits. But upload-pack is the server, so we choose the cheaper way, send full .git/shallow and let the client deal with it. Smart HTTP is not affected by this patch. Shallow support on smart-http comes later separately. (*) A shallow commit is a commit that terminates the revision walker. It is usually put in .git/shallow in order to keep the revision walker from going out of bound because there is no guarantee that objects behind this commit is available.

Many calls to parse_commit detect errors and die.

The server side has been taught to send a small empty messages to keep the connection alive. * jk/upload-pack-keepalive: upload-pack: bump keepalive default to 5 seconds upload-pack: send keepalive packets during pack computation
