4b87474 grep -An -Bm: fix invocation of external grep command When building command line to invoke external grep, the arguments to -A/-B/-C options were placd in randarg[] buffer, but the code forgot that snprintf() does not count terminating NUL in its return value. This caused "git grep -A1 -B2" to invoke external grep with "-B21 -A1". Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 18 November 2007, 05:19:55 UTC

0e06cc8 Fix per-directory exclude handing for "git add" In "dir_struct", each exclusion element in the exclusion stack records a base string (pointer to the beginning with length) so that we can tell where it came from, but this pointer is just pointing at the parameter that is given by the caller to the push_exclude_per_directory() function. While read_directory_recursive() runs, calls to excluded() makes use the data in the exclusion elements, including this base string. The caller of read_directory_recursive() is not supposed to free the buffer it gave to push_exclude_per_directory() earlier, until it returns. The test case Bruce Stephens gave in the mailing list discussion was simplified and added to the t3700 test. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 17 November 2007, 01:05:13 UTC
dcf0c16 core.excludesfile clean-up There are inconsistencies in the way commands currently handle the core.excludesfile configuration variable. The problem is the variable is too new to be noticed by anything other than git-add and git-status. * git-ls-files does not notice any of the "ignore" files by default, as it predates the standardized set of ignore files. The calling scripts established the convention to use .git/info/exclude, .gitignore, and later core.excludesfile. * git-add and git-status know about it because they call add_excludes_from_file() directly with their own notion of which standard set of ignore files to use. This is just a stupid duplication of code that need to be updated every time the definition of the standard set of ignore files is changed. * git-read-tree takes --exclude-per-directory=<gitignore>, not because the flexibility was needed. Again, this was because the option predates the standardization of the ignore files. * git-merge-recursive uses hardcoded per-directory .gitignore and nothing else. git-clean (scripted version) does not honor core.* because its call to underlying ls-files does not know about it. git-clean in C (parked in 'pu') doesn't either. We probably could change git-ls-files to use the standard set when no excludes are specified on the command line and ignore processing was asked, or something like that, but that will be a change in semantics and might break people's scripts in a subtle way. I am somewhat reluctant to make such a change. On the other hand, I think it makes perfect sense to fix git-read-tree, git-merge-recursive and git-clean to follow the same rule as other commands. I do not think of a valid use case to give an exclude-per-directory that is nonstandard to read-tree command, outside a "negative" test in the t1004 test script. This patch is the first step to untangle this mess. The next step would be to teach read-tree, merge-recursive and clean (in C) to use setup_standard_excludes().

2587d67 Fix t9101 test failure caused by Subversion "auto-props" If a user has an "auto-prop" in his/her ~/.subversion/config file for automatically setting the svn:keyword Id property on all ".c" files (a reasonably common configuration in the Subversion world) then one of the "svn propset" operations in the very first test would become a no-op, which in turn would make the next commit a no-op. This then caused the 25th test ('test propget') to fail because it expects a certain number of commits to have taken place but the actual number of commits was off by one. Björn Steinbrink identified the "auto-prop" feature as the cause of the failure. This patch avoids it by passing the "--no-auto-prop" flag to "svn import" when setting up the test repository, thus ensuring that the "svn propset" operation is no longer a no-op, regardless of the users' settings in their config.

7f55cf4 Documentation: Fix man page breakage with DocBook XSL v1.72 From version 1.72 it will replace all dots in roff requests with U+2302 ("house" character), and add escaping in output for all instances of dot that are not in roff requests. This caused the ".ft" hack forcing monospace font in listingblocks to end up as "\&.ft" and being visible in the resulting man page. The fix adds a DOCBOOK_XSL_172 build variable that will disable the hack. To allow this variable to be defined in config.mak it also moves build variable handling below the inclusion of config.mak.

436e7a7 Don't allow fast-import tree delta chains to exceed maximum depth Brian Downing noticed fast-import can produce tree depths of up to 6,035 objects and even deeper. Long delta chains can create very small packfiles but cause problems during repacking as git needs to unpack each tree to count the reachable blobs. What's happening here is the active branch cache isn't big enough. We're swapping out the branch and thus recycling the tree information (struct tree_content) back into the free pool. When we later reload the tree we set the delta_depth to 0 but we kept the tree we just reloaded as a delta base. So if the tree we reloaded was already at the maximum depth we wouldn't know it and make the new tree a delta. Multiply the number of times the branch cache has to swap out the tree times max_depth (10) and you get the maximum delta depth of a tree created by fast-import. In Brian's case above the active branch cache had to swap the branch out 603/604 times during this import to produce a tree with a delta depth of 6035.

295dd2a Fix memory leak in traverse_commit_list If we were listing objects too then the objects were buffered in an array only reachable from a stack allocated structure. When this function returns that array would be leaked as nobody would have a reference to it anymore. Historically this hasn't been a problem as the primary user of traverse_commit_list() (the noble git-rev-list) would terminate as soon as the function was finished, thus allowing the operating system to cleanup memory. However we have been leaking this data in git-pack-objects ever since that program learned how to run the revision listing internally, rather than relying on reading object names from git-rev-list. To better facilitate reuse of traverse_commit_list during other builtin tools (such as git-fetch) we shouldn't leak temporary memory like this and instead we need to clean up properly after ourselves.

fbbdbfc refresh_index_quietly(): express "optional" nature of index writing better The point of the part of the code this patch touches is that if we modified the active_cache, we try to write it out and make it the index file for later users to use by calling "commit_locked_index", but we do not really care about the failure from this sequence because it is done purely as an optimization. The original code called three functions primarily for their side effects but as condition of an if statement, which is admittedly a bad style. Incidentally, it squelches an "empty if body" warning from gcc. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> 09 November 2007, 00:26:23 UTC

c74d9ac git-svn: fix dcommit clobbering when committing a series of diffs Our revision number sent to SVN is set to the last revision we committed if we've made any previous commits in a dcommit invocation. Although our SVN Editor code uses the delta of two (old) trees to generate information to send upstream, it'll still send complete resultant files upstream; even if the tree they're based against is out-of-date. The combination of sending a file that does not include the latest changes, but set with a revision number of a commit we just made will cause SVN to accept the resultant file even if it was generated against an old tree. More trouble was caused when fixing this because we were rebasing uncessarily at times. We used git-diff-tree to check the imported SVN revision against our HEAD, not the last tree we committed to SVN. The unnecessary rebasing caused merge commits upstream to SVN to fail.

f91333d git-rebase--interactive.sh: Make 3-way merge strategies work for -p. git-rebase--interactive.sh used to pass all parents of a merge commit to git-merge, which means that we have at least 3 heads to merge: HEAD, first parent and second parent. So 3-way merge strategies like recursive wouldn't work. Fortunately, we have checked out the first parent right before the merge anyway, so that is HEAD. Therefore we can drop simply it from the list of parents, making 3-way strategies work for merge commits with only two parents.

2a9c53e git-rebase--interactive.sh: Don't pass a strategy to git-cherry-pick. git-cherry-pick doesn't support a strategy paramter, so don't pass one. This means that --strategy for interactive rebases is a no-op for anything but merge commits, but that's still better than being broken. A correct fix would probably need to port the --merge behaviour from plain git-rebase.sh, but I have no clue how to integrate that cleanly.

07b45f8 Make merge-recursive honor diff.renamelimit It might be a sign of source code management gone bad, but when two branches has diverged almost beyond recognition and time has come for the branches to merge, the user is going to need all the help his tool can give him. Honoring diff.renamelimit has great potential as a painkiller in such situations. The painkiller effect could have been achieved by e.g. 'merge.renamelimit', but the flexibility gained by a separate option is questionable: our user would probably expect git to detect renames equally good when merging as when diffing (I known I did).

6dd4b66 Fix diffcore-break total breakage Ok, so on the kernel list, some people noticed that "git log --follow" doesn't work too well with some files in the x86 merge, because a lot of files got renamed in very special ways. In particular, there was a pattern of doing single commits with renames that looked basically like - rename "filename.h" -> "filename_64.h" - create new "filename.c" that includes "filename_32.h" or "filename_64.h" depending on whether we're 32-bit or 64-bit. which was preparatory for smushing the two trees together. Now, there's two issues here: - "filename.c" *remained*. Yes, it was a rename, but there was a new file created with the old name in the same commit. This was important, because we wanted each commit to compile properly, so that it was bisectable, so splitting the rename into one commit and the "create helper file" into another was *not* an option. So we need to break associations where the contents change too much. Fine. We have the -B flag for that. When we break things up, then the rename detection will be able to figure out whether there are better alternatives. - "git log --follow" didn't with with -B. Now, the second case was really simple: we use a different "diffopt" structure for the rename detection than the basic one (which we use for showing the diffs). So that second case is trivially fixed by a trivial one-liner that just copies the break_opt values from the "real" diffopts to the one used for rename following. So now "git log -B --follow" works fine: diff --git a/tree-diff.c b/tree-diff.c index 26bdbdd..7c261fd 100644 --- a/tree-diff.c +++ b/tree-diff.c @@ -319,6 +319,7 @@ static void try_to_follow_renames(struct tree_desc *t1, struct tree_desc *t2, co diff_opts.detect_rename = DIFF_DETECT_RENAME; diff_opts.output_format = DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT; diff_opts.single_follow = opt->paths[0]; + diff_opts.break_opt = opt->break_opt; paths[0] = NULL; diff_tree_setup_paths(paths, &diff_opts); if (diff_setup_done(&diff_opts) < 0) however, the end result does *not* work. Because our diffcore-break.c logic is totally bogus! In particular: - it used to do if (base_size < MINIMUM_BREAK_SIZE) return 0; /* we do not break too small filepair */ which basically says "don't bother to break small files". But that "base_size" is the *smaller* of the two sizes, which means that if some large file was rewritten into one that just includes another file, we would look at the (small) result, and decide that it's smaller than the break size, so it cannot be worth it to break it up! Even if the other side was ten times bigger and looked *nothing* like the samell file! That's clearly bogus. I replaced "base_size" with "max_size", so that we compare the *bigger* of the filepair with the break size. - It calculated a "merge_score", which was the score needed to merge it back together if nothing else wanted it. But even if it was *so* different that we would never want to merge it back, we wouldn't consider it a break! That makes no sense. So I added if (*merge_score_p > break_score) return 1; to make it clear that if we wouldn't want to merge it at the end, it was *definitely* a break. - It compared the whole "extent of damage", counting all inserts and deletes, but it based this score on the "base_size", and generated the damage score with delta_size = src_removed + literal_added; damage_score = delta_size * MAX_SCORE / base_size; but that makes no sense either, since quite often, this will result in a number that is *bigger* than MAX_SCORE! Why? Because base_size is (again) the smaller of the two files we compare, and when you start out from a small file and add a lot (or start out from a large file and remove a lot), the base_size is going to be much smaller than the damage! Again, the fix was to replace "base_size" with "max_size", at which point the damage actually becomes a sane percentage of the whole. With these changes in place, not only does "git log -B --follow" work for the case that triggered this in the first place, ie now git log -B --follow arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux_64.lds.S actually gives reasonable results. But I also wanted to verify it in general, by doing a full-history git log --stat -B -C on my kernel tree with the old code and the new code. There's some tweaking to be done, but generally, the new code generates much better results wrt breaking up files (and then finding better rename candidates). Here's a few examples of the "--stat" output: - This: include/asm-x86/Kbuild | 2 - include/asm-x86/debugreg.h | 79 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ include/asm-x86/debugreg_32.h | 64 --------------------------------- include/asm-x86/debugreg_64.h | 65 --------------------------------- 4 files changed, 68 insertions(+), 142 deletions(-) Becomes: include/asm-x86/Kbuild | 2 - include/asm-x86/{debugreg_64.h => debugreg.h} | 9 +++- include/asm-x86/debugreg_32.h | 64 ------------------------- 3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 68 deletions(-) - This: include/asm-x86/bug.h | 41 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- include/asm-x86/bug_32.h | 37 ------------------------------------- include/asm-x86/bug_64.h | 34 ---------------------------------- 3 files changed, 39 insertions(+), 73 deletions(-) Becomes include/asm-x86/{bug_64.h => bug.h} | 20 +++++++++++++----- include/asm-x86/bug_32.h | 37 ----------------------------------- 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 43 deletions(-) Now, in some other cases, it does actually turn a rename into a real "delete+create" pair, and then the diff is usually bigger, so truth in advertizing: it doesn't always generate a nicer diff. But for what -B was meant for, I think this is a big improvement, and I suspect those cases where it generates a bigger diff are tweakable. So I think this diff fixes a real bug, but we might still want to tweak the default values and perhaps the exact rules for when a break happens.

0713442 Fix directory scanner to correctly ignore files without d_type On Fri, 19 Oct 2007, Todd T. Fries wrote: > If DT_UNKNOWN exists, then we have to do a stat() of some form to > find out the right type. That happened in the case of a pathname that was ignored, and we did not ask for "dir->show_ignored". That test used to be *together* with the "DTYPE(de) != DT_DIR", but splitting the two tests up means that we can do that (common) test before we even bother to calculate the real dtype. Of course, that optimization only matters for systems that don't have, or don't fill in DTYPE properly. I also clarified the real relationship between "exclude" and "dir->show_ignored". It used to do if (exclude != dir->show_ignored) { .. which wasn't exactly obvious, because it triggers for two different cases: - the path is marked excluded, but we are not interested in ignored files: ignore it - the path is *not* excluded, but we *are* interested in ignored files: ignore it unless it's a directory, in which case we might have ignored files inside the directory and need to recurse into it). so this splits them into those two cases, since the first case doesn't even care about the type. I also made a the DT_UNKNOWN case a separate helper function, and added some commentary to the cases. Linus Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org> 21 October 2007, 05:44:40 UTC

42a3217 Avoid scary errors about tagged trees/blobs during git-fetch Ok, what is going on is: - append_fetch_head() looks up the SHA1 for all heads (including tags): if (get_sha1(head, sha1)) return error("Not a valid object name: %s", head); - it then wants to check if it's a candidate for merging (because fetching also does the whole "list which heads to merge" in case it is going to be part of a "pull"): commit = lookup_commit_reference(sha1); if (!commit) not_for_merge = 1; - and that "lookup_commit_reference()" is just very vocal about the case where it fails. It really shouldn't be, and it shouldn't affect the actual end result, but that basically explains why you get that scary warning.

cd8ae20 git-blame shouldn't crash if run in an unmerged tree If we are in the middle of resolving a merge conflict there may be one or more files whose entries in the index represent an unmerged state (index entries in the higher-order stages). Attempting to run git-blame on any file in such a working directory resulted in "fatal: internal error: ce_mode is 0" as we use the magic marker for an unmerged entry is 0 (set up by things like diff-lib.c's do_diff_cache() and builtin-read-tree.c's read_tree_unmerged()) and the ce_match_stat_basic() function gets upset about this. I'm not entirely sure that the whole "ce_mode = 0" case is a good idea to begin with, and maybe the right thing to do is to remove that horrid freakish special case, but removing the internal error seems to be the simplest fix for now.
